Qi Refining Channel.
Blood Fiend Island, inside the cave.
Fang Qing himself had a solemn expression as he calculated with his fingers.
Although it doesn't count as a Golden Elixir, in this state of being like a headless fly, even a wrong revelation can be very useful!
"Dewdrops on the rock face—a sign of 'Wall Water,' is this a secret place of 'Wall Water'?"
Why does it also give me the feeling of a clear spring gushing from the ground, like the water of Jishui?
"It's—bloodline!"
Fang Qing was startled: "It's my body, the bloodline of the Fang family of Sanshui'ao?! This hidden paradise is actually related to this?"
The method of breath control is found within the secret realm of [Wall Water].
Buddhist disciple Sangji's dim, gem-like eyes swept across the surroundings, overflowing with the radiance of the [Female Earth].
As he chanted incantations that sounded both ancient and bloody, and primitive and ancient, the surrounding void rippled under the influence of his supernatural powers, and phantoms appeared one after another.
-
In these illusions, people are walking backwards.
Clearly, this is a time reversal!
Of course, with supernatural powers, one can only "see"; it is impossible to influence the past.
This is something that almost any True Person in the Purple Mansion can do, and only they have the ability to trace back.
Fang Qing's eyes flickered as he spotted a figure.
He wore an earth-yellow Taoist robe, with a Juntian gourd hanging at his waist.
"Fang Wuchen————"
He sighed: "Bloodline—it actually traces back to this?"
He hesitated for a moment.
"This place—there must be a grotto-heaven, and within that grotto-heaven, a True Lord is sealed away? Is he calling for help?"
"It might even be the source of the Fang family bloodline—possibly hidden by that [Dangerous Moon]—"
"The conditions for entering the grotto-heaven seem to be hearing the True Lord's cry for help, being corrupted, and—bloodline! All conditions must be met for it to be a true entry requirement for the grotto-heaven—"
"If even one person is missing, none of us can get in."
Of course, this is the normal way to access it.
However, most major cultivations in the Qi Absorption Dao (a cultivation method) involve unconventional entry methods, such as blood sacrifices or using destiny to shake the grotto-heaven and forcibly open the passage.
"But Fang Wuchen has already entered—if I were to save him, I would naturally have to come in person, but I obviously wouldn't do that."
"So, the only option is to start another great war, collecting blood sacrifices and choosing the chosen ones?"
"Why is this dustless place always connected to grotto-heavens?"
Even Fang Qing couldn't help but secretly complain at this thought.
"In any case, I will definitely not come to submit to the Dao until I have obtained the strength of a Golden Core True Monarch."
"Sangji does not possess my bloodline, therefore the Buddhist disciple cannot enter that grotto-heaven—"
"It looks like a setup no matter how you look at it."
"However, as long as the tiger doesn't leave its den, it can't do anything to me!"
Fang Qing let out a long breath.
As long as he doesn't show himself, the worst that can happen in this situation is the loss of Fang Wuchen.
Just as he was about to control Sanji and turn to leave, a sudden change occurred!
On the stone tablet, scratches gathered, faintly revealing characters, then spun rapidly, transforming into a vortex.
The cave trembled faintly, with a dim yellow light and dark blue water flowing out.
A blood-stained jug flew out of the vortex and landed in front of Sangji.
"The Heavenly Pot?"
Fang Qing picked up the Juntian Pot and felt its extraordinary aura.
Clearly, this weapon, made from the flesh and blood of the Fang family's ancestor, came into contact with something of extremely high status and was thus corrupted.
If you close your eyes slightly at this moment, a vision will appear before your eyes.
It was a vast, boundless lake, and on its surface, a colossal figure, as large as a mountain, was rolling and howling in agony.
She wore a palace dress, adorned with jade pendants, and her slightly protruding belly was faintly visible.
Around this figure, endless water cascaded like a mountain torrent, mixed with countless black serpents and dragons, and halo-like runes, connected end to end, continuously expanding outwards—
"True Lord?"
"The True Lord of Jishui?"
Having the metal element in his chart, Fang Qing was able to observe the form of this True Lord, and a thought suddenly struck him.
Through this True Lord, he even sensed a certain indescribable status.
And above that space, something resembling a placenta seemed to be pulsating and nurturing—
"The position of [Wall Water]?"
"【Wall Water】is good at nurturing, but how can flesh and blood be nurtured above the metal position?"
Sangji dared not linger any longer. He immediately took the Juntian Pot and vanished into the void, preparing to return to the secret realm.
Qi Refining Channel.
Blood Fiend Island, inside the cave.
Fang Qing let out a long breath.
"Could that True Lord [Ji Shui] trapped in the nameless grotto be—the Mysterious and Subtle True Lord?"
-
Ever since Sanmu and his own supernatural powers and methods for seeking gold all went wrong, Fang Qing knew that something serious must have happened to Xuanxu Heaven!
As Xuanxu Heaven was in such a state, Bai Ze, the attendant god, went mad, indicating that his master, the Mysterious and Subtle True Lord, was also in poor condition.
Upon seeing the figure tumbling, howling, and calling for help on the vast lake, Fang Qing had a gut feeling.
That is the Mysterious and Subtle True Lord!
[Ji Shui] The Golden Elixir of the Main Position!
However—the other party is clearly in poor condition, and may even be half-mad!
And the reason for his half-madness? Fang Qing understood the moment he came into contact with the aura.
"This mysterious and profound True Lord" desires to attain the [Wall Water] Gold rank in order to break through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm!
Although it is the main position of [Ji Water] and not on the correct path of [Water Virtue in Charge of the Year], as long as it is not the guest position, it is not considered to have no way forward.
At the very least, anyone who can prove their [Wall Water] level can be considered to be in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm!
But clearly, something went wrong when he was seeking gold!
The one who should strike is the "Dangerous Moon"! Or rather, the "Moon in Charge"!
"This wasn't someone deliberately targeting Him, but rather something was wrong with the [Bi Shui] metal position! Since the removal of Bi Shui by Zhen Shui"—
This golden position has undergone a transformation! A mass of flesh and blood has been stuffed into this golden position, "nurturing" something—
"The 'wall water' is inherently good at nurturing, and after being stuffed with something, it continuously grows and matures, almost completely filling the entire metal position!"
"This made it difficult to verify the [Wall Water], and the Mysterious and Subtle True Lord foolishly sought it—naturally, the moment he touched the Golden Position, he crashed headfirst into it, bleeding profusely, and suffered a backlash, falling into a state of semi-madness!"
If it were another metal position, it might be difficult to be affected by Taiyin, but since the Water Virtue has always been close to Taiyin, it's hard to say.
"This method of directly blocking a golden position is simply beyond the capabilities of a Golden Core True Monarch. It must be—[The Year's Duty]! Was it done by Bi Yuewu during the [Year's Duty]'s revival? Or by that person on [Dangerous Moon]?"
Fang Qing felt a chill run down his spine for a moment.
"The Taiyin [Yearly Ruler]—could it truly be undergoing initial resurgence in that Primordial Sovereign of the Toad Palace? Otherwise, how could He mobilize the Biyue Crow's backup plan in the Sunken Moon Sea? And—why was this place deliberately sealed off?"
This nameless cave was originally the place of "Sanzang" (Tripitaka), and it would almost never be discovered by anyone.
Now that [Kui Mu] is no longer hiding, some clues are emerging.
"According to the Bodhisattva Akasagarbha, the one hidden here is the Primordial Sovereign of the Toad Palace who was born from the womb"—this is also corroborating evidence! But why is He the principal figure of the [Dangerous Moon], rather than someone who is absent?
He was somewhat puzzled, and then felt a chill run down his spine.
"Then—Fang Wuchen arrived here and was led into the cave? But why was he able to give away the Juntian Pot, allowing me to perceive part of the truth? Was this an arrangement by 'Great Sun Tathagata'? Or does Fang Wuchen possess a method left behind by 'the Kitchen God of Taihuang Heaven,' which naturally erupts when he encounters danger, yet only allows him to escape with a Dao Foundation Spiritual Artifact?"
"This matter is both important and unimportant; the key point is—"
Fang Qing slapped his forehead: "Damn it, [Wei Yue]! He sealed off this nameless grotto-heaven, completely locking down [Bi Shui], and he still holds the Golden Core of the [Ji Shui] master—how can the Water Virtue [Zhi Sui] be proven now?"
According to the orthodox Water Virtue [Yearly Ruler] path, [Zhen Water] is primary, [Bi Water] is secondary, [Shen Water] is harmonious, and [Ji Water] is deficient!
Now, the Taiyin [Zhi Sui]'s hands and feet are blocked above the [Bi Shui] metal position, so it is probably impossible to prove anything if either the main, subordinate, or guest is missing.
Even the slightest touch would lead to the same fate as that "Mysterious and Subtle True Lord"!
Furthermore, the "Primordial Sovereign of the Toad Palace" on the "Dangerous Moon" also holds the Golden Elixir of the "Ji Water" principal position. If anyone desires the "Ji Water" Golden Position, she can most likely exert influence!
Just like the "Great Sage of Blazing Feathers and Fiery Sky", He may not be entirely confident in promoting a [Winged Fire] to a subordinate or senior position.
However, if someone he dislikes asks for money, he can certainly make them fail!
"I should have known. In the context of the Dark Jungle—those guys in the lead, if they can block the way, they definitely will!"
"I just didn't expect that the Water element hadn't emerged as the [Yearly Officer], not because it was too weak, but because it was riddled with problems!"
"From this perspective, Wood and Earth are not much better—perhaps Wood has the fewest pitfalls."
Fang Qing gritted her teeth.
He wanted to prove the [Ji Water] and follow the path of the Water Virtue [Yearly Ruler].
Now they're telling him that this path is blocked!
"There's still a way, it's just a change in the metal element—at worst, I'll seek help from earth or wood elements—"
Fang Qing let out a long breath.
Although he has almost no cultivation in either of these two areas, he can accumulate it slowly and also through the infusion of lightning tribulations!
"Furthermore, we can try to move these two mountains—"
"The first thing we need to do, naturally, is to notify the Great Snow Mountain—to send them to probe whether that Primordial Sovereign of the Toad Palace, who has been reborn from the womb, has any signs of the [Yearly Duty] revival—the Secret Realm and the Demon Clan will definitely be even more anxious than I am!"
"Then, it's time to improve yourself as much as possible."
On the path of Qi cultivation, things are now fraught with danger at every turn. Therefore, the only option is to first improve the Qi cultivation path and even strive for the [Mysterious Thunder] Gold rank!
"A Buddha-level combat strength is still too low—I need a True Lord-level combat strength to truly become a chess player!"
Fang Qing let out a long breath and secretly ordered Sangji to contact Shou Zangxuan and Pilu.
As for himself, he naturally continued to cultivate within the Primordial Heaven.
"Alas—the Water element is utterly ruined, having been corrupted to this extent by the Yin energy—"
"Thinking about it now, the ancient sage killed Bi Yuewu, and was then killed by Wei Yue—it might have been the Zhen River."
Everything's gone wrong!
"Is this the Water element becoming close to the Yin? It's clearly almost surrendering to the Yin!"
"It seems I might still have to take up the mantle of Water Virtue in the future."
