Chapter 47 Yao Lingxuan
Inside the temporary cave dwelling.
Fang Qing suppressed his excitement and first consulted the oracle about his family's fortune.
"A draw?! It seems there are no problems with this deal."
After gaining insight, he looked at the three cultivation manuals again: "The fortune or misfortune of me practicing these cultivation techniques..."
Under the operation of the Plum Blossom Divination, the results came out quickly.
"The 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique' is a mixed blessing? The 'Great Sun True Explanation' is extremely auspicious? As for the 'Great Joyful Ode of the Intercourse of Sun and Moon Yin and Yang,' it is... extremely inauspicious?"
Fang Qing was slightly surprised. Although he was very much looking forward to the contents of "The Great Joy of the Intercourse of Sun and Moon Yin and Yang", he didn't even look at it. He directly sealed it in a jade box, affixed a sealing talisman to it, and prepared to keep it at the bottom of his storage bag forever.
He then immediately picked up the "Great Sun True Interpretation" which read "Great Fortune".
After a long while, Fang Qing put down the secret manual in his hand, his eyes clear and bright, yet seemingly tinged with foolishness...
Even with the help of divine sense, he still found many parts of the book "The True Explanation of the Great Sun" to be obscure and difficult to understand. He didn't even know how to get started, and he felt like an idiot!
"Some cultivation arts, even with the assistance of divine sense, ultimately still depend on talent... such as formations, and this book, 'The Great Sun True Explanation'!"
Fang Qing was certain that this cultivation manual was definitely written by an ancient cultivator. The fact that it left him completely bewildered meant that the author might not even be an ancient cultivator; it could very well be from the Primordial Era!
He sighed and opened the book "The Secret Techniques of Great Sun Initiation".
Having gained experience from practicing the "Horse-Headed Vajra Protector Divine Skill," Fang Qing managed to barely grasp the basics of the "Great Sun Initiation Secret Skill."
"As expected... I have the aid of divine sense, and I'm a genius!"
"The reason you can't cultivate the 'Great Sun True Explanation' is entirely because this cultivation method is not meant for geniuses!"
He was completely absorbed, continuously analyzing the "Secret Practice of the Great Sun Initiation": "This secret practice is an extremely auspicious method from the Great Snow Mountain, involving the secrets of the Great Sun, and also has the 'Three Secrets Practice'... The body secret is the 'Supreme Yoga Secret Vehicle', the speech secret is the 'Great Sun Tathagata Mantra', and the mind secret is even more special. It has no visualization diagrams, only a set of hand mudras, which is the 'Great Sun Initiation Complete Mahamudra Method'!"
"I can at least get the basics of this Great Sun Daoist cultivation method and know how to practice... but that 'Great Sun True Explanation,' which I don't even know how to get started with, is definitely not a matter of my lack of comprehension!"
In fact, Fang Qing wanted to cultivate the "Great Sun True Explanation" even more, but alas... he really couldn't understand it at all.
On the contrary, the entry requirements for "The Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique" are significantly lowered.
"A mixed bag, huh? I'll cultivate for a while first. If things go wrong in the future, I can just use the Dao Life Pearl to neutralize it..."
Fang Qing made a decision, but this did not mean that he would give up the "Great Sun True Explanation".
The method of gathering Qi through the "Great Sun Purple Qi" is a dead end in ancient Shu, but it's nothing special on Jade Island.
Over the past few years, he has acquired two "Great Sun Purple Qi" techniques.
You can wait until you have mastered the "Great Sun True Explanation" before consuming another "Great Sun Purple Qi" to enter the Dao!
With a cheat code in hand, that's how arrogant they are!
Fang Qing made up her mind, twisting her body like a snake and assuming a yoga pose.
If he hadn't diligently practiced the "Horse-Headed Vajra Protector Divine Skill," which refined his skin, flesh, and bones, it definitely wouldn't have been so easy at first.
He silently recited the secret mantra of Vairocana Buddha in his heart: "Om Mani Padme Hum!"
Within the sea of consciousness, divine sense further assists in visualizing large hand seals.
Half a day has passed, and nothing has happened...
"As expected... without the initiation of a master or the 'Great Sun Purple Qi,' it is impossible for someone who practices the Dao of Qi to enter the Dao in one step."
With a thought, a jade bottle placed beside Fang Qing opened automatically, and a layer of rich purple energy immediately appeared inside, which he inhaled through his mouth and nose.
Boom!
In an instant, the previously quiet "Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique" began to operate wildly. The "Great Sun Purple Qi" flowed through the three chakras and seven meridians, finally settling at the crown of the head, transforming into a magnificent sun.
Fang Qing relaxed his mind and felt as if he saw a... blazing sun?
A sun-shaped mark appeared on his forehead and then quickly disappeared.
"The quality of this magic..."
After a long while, Fang Qing let out a long breath and silently experienced the difference of this ninth-grade high-level magic power.
"In the cultivation path, only those with seventh-rank or higher magical power have the possibility of advancing to the Purple Mansion realm... As for what comes after the Purple Mansion realm? That's beyond human reach, so we won't discuss it... The ninth-rank, high-grade, is known as 'Eastern Jade Purity'!"
"The highest level of True Qi in the Great Sun Daoist lineage is only the ninth rank, upper grade? What kind of True Qi is the ninth rank, supreme grade?"
"This single burst of magic power is at least several times the power of [Ji Water], and if it were replaced with Black Water magic power... it would be even more!"
"The initial gap was so large, what happened next?"
He was somewhat excited, but after carefully assessing his cultivation speed, he was speechless: "After all, I am not a Great Sun Body. Even if I cultivate through Qi Absorption and change my physique, I can only barely cultivate this 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique'... If I rely on my own hard work, my cultivation progress will be much slower than the 'Observation of the Black Tomb Scripture,' even much slower..."
"If cultivating the 'Black Tomb Observation Book,' even without the magical power of primordial qi transformation, I could reach the perfect state of Qi Absorption in this lifetime. But if I were to use the 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique'... I'm afraid I'd never break through to the late stage of Qi Absorption in my entire life!"
This is why the practice of breathing exercises is approached with extreme caution.
Not only can't it be changed, but once you've entered the door, there's no turning back.
"Fortunately... I still have a cheat code."
Fang Qing knew that it was almost impossible to advance through his own cultivation of this "Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique," so he immediately had a thought.
The Dao Sheng Pearl spun rapidly, and a large amount of primordial energy appeared, directly pouring into the Sun Wheel. After passing through the three wheels and seven meridians, it transformed into the purest [Great Sun] magical power.
With this help, his body crackled and popped, a sun wheel mark appeared on his head, and countless crimson blood vessels, like blood vessels, spread all over his body.
Second level of Qi Conquest!
Three floors!
Four floors!
Fang Qing's cultivation level broke through step by step until he reached about the fourth level of Qi Condensation before stopping.
"Only convinced of the fourth level?"
He looked at his hands in disbelief: "My Black Water magic power is at the seventh level of perfection, capable of converting more than the sixth level of [Ji Water] Qi Absorption magic power into [Great Sun] magic power, yet I only have a mere fourth level of Qi Absorption? It doesn't even seem quite perfect?"
The difference in quality between these various magical powers is simply too great.
Fang Qing exhaled a long breath, and the Dao Sheng Pearl continued to transform, completely dissolving the cultivation of the "Horse-Headed Vajra Protector Divine Skill" and falling into the sun wheel.
This protective divine skill was also something he cultivated bit by bit.
Previously, he had also tried to enhance the power of the [Jishui] magic, but it seemed that due to a lack of cultivation, he could not break through to the late stage of Qi Conversion simply by relying on the strength of the magic.
Crackling sounds!
A blazing sun phantom appeared on Fang Qing's body, and his cultivation level rose all the way to the sixth level of Qi Conquest.
"As expected... techniques from the same secret domain are the most perfect to convert between each other, consuming the least and producing the greatest effect."
He opened his eyes and suddenly looked at his own palm.
With a slight thought, a fingernail made a scratch, and a drop of blood appeared.
These blood beads were different from ordinary ones, with specks of gold.
Fang Qing casually tossed it aside.
Snapped!
The blood droplets fell to the ground, turning into golden beads with a dull thud.
"Do cultivators who practice the Qi cultivation method undergo inhuman changes after absorbing Qi into their bodies?"
He carefully put away the golden pearl, feeling the peak power of the [Great Sun] magic.
"The Great Sun is the Emperor of the Central Heaven, the most glorious of all... It can be the Sun, the Primordial Yang, the Lesser Yang... It is close to the Fire of Li..."
These were insights inherent in magical power, which immediately gave Fang Qing a sense of awe.
"The Great Sun True Meaning of this 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique'... it does seem rather grand and majestic. How did it become a lineage like the Great Snow Mountain?"
"Wait a minute... Now that I've achieved minor success in the Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique, as long as I cut my hair short, it seems like there wouldn't be much of a problem for me to impersonate a monk from the Secret Realm? Hmm, in ancient Shu, these kinds of Secret Realm monks are also known as Red Robe Monks or Esoteric Buddhists..."
"It is said that Tantric practitioners can also grow their hair long, eat meat and drink alcohol, and even enjoy the company of consorts... they can be said to have no taboos."
"Although I'm only at the sixth level of Qi Cultivation now, if I have more time to familiarize myself with my magical power and practice a few Yang-attribute and fire-attribute Daoist techniques... I'm afraid most late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators wouldn't be a match for me!"
"In this world, metal and fire are in full bloom. Among the twelve [yearly guardians], our Great Sun lineage is even superior to metal and fire!"
Fang Qing was filled with excitement.
He finally understood how a prodigy like Li Rulong could be convinced of a mid-stage reversal against a late-stage opponent.
"But let's forget about something this dangerous."
"If I were to fight, I would definitely be at the mid-stage of Qi Subjugation, overwhelming the early-stage Qi Subjugation..."
Fang Qing slowly suppressed the restlessness in his heart and carefully experienced the power of the [Great Sun] magic.
This magical power is of extremely high quality, but that's only one aspect.
When it is used, it also evokes the imagery of the Great Sun and the Fire, making it quite extraordinary.
"This 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique' can only be cultivated up to the Dao Foundation stage. The subsequent Purple Mansion stage will probably have to be found in the Secret Treasury Domain..."
"My karmic ties with the Great Snow Mountain have not only not been severed, but have actually grown stronger..."
He flipped through the "Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique" in his hands, silently comprehending: "The foundation of the Great Dao cultivated during the foundation stage of this technique is called 'Radiant Spirit Brilliance,' which seems to be much stronger than 'Long-lasting Sweet Rain' in the 'Book of Viewing the Black Tomb'... But I have not yet reached the foundation stage, so I still cannot distinguish it."
Fang Qing thought for a moment and then dispersed the power of the "Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique".
Rumble!
This vast primordial energy split into three parts, most of which propelled the "Horse-Headed Vajra Protector Divine Skill" to its first stage, nearing perfection.
The second part, in "Viewing the Black Tomb Book," transforms one into a cultivation level of around the third level of Qi Condensation.
Finally, there is the "Commentary on the Waterways Classic," which is the seventh level of Qi Refining!
"If I can't break through to the later stage of Qi Cultivation in a long time, I might even reach the sixth level of Qi Cultivation perfection myself..."
"And my 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique' has reached the first level of Qi Absorption... However, this technique doesn't seem to have the same evil effects as the previous protective divine technique? Could it be because I consumed 'Great Sun Purple Qi'?"
