Chapter 1276: Retreat Cultivation, First Killing Array
The place where I retreated this time was the cave where the ethereal immortals retreated. I chose to be here because I was familiar with the place and it was quiet enough.
I give myself a limited amount of time, to be precise, my time is already limited, so a month.
Regardless of whether or not I can comprehend the Infinite Slash this month, I will leave here and return to the Heavenly Realm to fight to the death against Chiyou.
Sitting cross-legged on the cold ground of the cave, I relaxed and quickly settled down.
What is Wuji? Wuji is the Tao, which is a more primitive and ultimate state than Taiji.
At the beginning of heaven and earth, everything is chaotic and infinite; yin and yang are combined, and the two qi of yin and yang generate all things as Taiji; the clear rises to the sky, and the turbid ones sink to the earth, divided into the east, south, west, and north four directions, each side has a god head to guard, the east green dragon, the west white tiger, the south Vermilion Bird, the north Xuanwu, is the four elephants; the wise man Fuxi, with the sun and the moon rise and fall to understand the mystery of the Qiankun, thus creating the eight trigrams, divided into Qian, Kun, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Dui, Li, from the Bagua diagram and derived from the eight gates, rest, injury, life, Du, Jing, death, surprise, open.
Therefore, it can be thought that Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip.
Wuji is the very beginning of everything, the most primitive stage. In my opinion, it is very likely that the infinite slash taught by Nuwa Niangniang is related to the chaotic qi that the heavens and the earth have just opened, and everything is chaotic. If you want to perform the Infinite Slash, you must first be able to perceive the existence of the chaotic qi. But how can the chaotic qi be perceived?
Suddenly, I thought of the five elements. The five elements evolved from the four innate elements, so before the five elements, there were the four innate elements of earth, water, wind and fire. And the four innate elements were determined after the Pangu God opened the world, which means that the four innate elements are not the beginning. So what was the original element? Could it be the aura of chaos?
If that's the case, if I merge the four innate elements into one, will I be able to fuse the chaotic qi?
It took me seven days to put this on the table. I see the Chaos Qi as the Infinite Slash, and the Infinite Slash is most likely activated by the Chaos Qi.
If you want to condense the chaotic qi, you need to start with the four innate elements. And the four innate elements have been transformed into the five elements, and if you want to get them, you have to start with the five elements.
Pushing it backwards like this, I still have to comprehend the five elements first. Thankfully, I've mastered three by now. The power of the two five elements, wood and earth, is comprehended by me, and the third power of fire is comprehended by my clone.
So now I need to comprehend the two forces of metal and water, as long as I can successfully comprehend it, I can completely master the five elements. When the time comes, it will be more convenient to deduce the four innate elements.
Being able to use and comprehending are completely different things, and I now have the power of the five elements, because I have the spirit of the five elements.
But in fact, I can't fully exert the power of the five elements, so my skills have always stagnated.
Thinking of this, I opened my eyes directly, and then scattered the lotus armor on my body into a five-element spirit.
As soon as they appeared, they knelt on the ground at the same time and said in unison: "I will wait to meet the master and listen to the master's orders!"
I looked at the five of them and smiled slightly, "This time, there is something I need your help with." Jin Lian, Bai Lian, the two of you stay, and the other three go outside the cave to protect the Dharma for me. I want to comprehend the power of gold and water in this cave!"
Hearing this, the Five Elements Elf responded, "Yes, we will obey!"
As soon as the words fell, Black Lotus, Red Lotus, and Qinglian flew out of the cave first. I looked at the Golden Lotus and the White Lotus, and then stretched out my hands. Seeing this, the two of them immediately turned into two breaths and flew into my hands.
I held the golden qi in one hand and the water qi in the other, and soon entered the cultivation. Invisibly, the earth is born of gold, and gold is born of water.
I have mastered the power of the earth, and it is not too difficult to comprehend the power of gold. And gold gives birth to water, so after I comprehend the power of gold, it is the right way to comprehend the power of water.
Soil deposits and minerals produce gold, and gold is melted into water, so gold should be the ultimate of soil. Chinese character analysis, gold, five-color gold also. Yellow is long. Buried for a long time without clothes, a hundred refinements are not light, from the revolution is not violated, the trip to the West, born in the soil, from the soil.
Gold is born of the earth and is harder than the earth. If you want to comprehend the power of gold, you must understand the mystery of the power of gold. Jin is the main attack among the five elements, that is, the strongest force among the five elements.
Therefore, the mystery of gold is invincible and sharp, and the way of gold is the way of attack. It took me three full days to finally understand the way of attacking the power of gold, and I completely mastered the power of gold.
Now it's all that remains with the power of water. Gold sells to produce water, that is, financialization and water. The limit of the yin is water, and the cold of the yin is water.
Therefore, the water dominates the yin. In terms of the restraint of the five elements, rigidity is better than softness, so gold is better than wood, because the knife can cut down trees, because the special is better than scattered, so wood is better than the soil, because the stake can be inserted into the soil, the real is better than the void, the soil is better than the water, because the embankment can stop the flow of water, because the many are outnumbered, so the water is better than the fire, because the water can extinguish the flame, the fine is better than the strong, so the fire is better than the gold, because the fire can dissolve the metal.
Therefore, fire is the way to extinguish, and water should be the way to eat.
In the blink of an eye, twenty days later, my laughter finally sounded in the silence of the cave.
After twenty days, I finally mastered the power of the five elements completely, and thus realized the five realms. There are three thousand avenues, and I finally realized five paths.
Although my cultivation has not increased much, my combat power has increased a little. But I know very well in my heart that now is not the time for complacency, and I have to continue my retreat.
There are only ten days left until the one-month retreat. In these ten days, I will transform the five elements into the four innate elements, and then merge the four innate elements into chaotic qi!
Buddhism believes that earth, water, fire, and wind are the four elements that make up matter. Among the four elements, the earth is the firmness of matter, and its function is to hold it, water is the wetness of matter, and its function is to gather, fire is the warmth of matter, and its effect is to mature, and wind is the movement of matter, and its effect is lightness.
Judging from the current five elements, there is no need to deduce water and fire in them. The rest are the two innate elements of earth and wind. Although gold is stronger than the earth, it is born from the soil, and the homeland is combined with gold.
Ancient poems, the wind was born on the ground, starting at the end of Qingping. Leaving aside the implication, the earth and wood are combined into the wind.
According to this deduction, the four innate elements can be achieved. And just like that, I started the retreat again.
Seven days later, the four innate elements came out in response, and there was only one last step left before the chaotic qi. But at that moment, the cave I was in shook violently, and the tremor was like an earthquake.
A sense of foreboding came to my heart, could it be that something big had happened again?
The moment I walked out of the cave, I was completely stunned. I really didn't expect that the Heavenly Dao First Killing Array Immortal Sword Formation would reappear.
Who laid down the Zhuxian Sword Formation? What the hell is all this about?
