Chapter 63: The Swamp of Death (4) (Introduction to the Five Elements)

Ye Bai was stunned from the sidelines, and listened to the man in the cloak continue: "The fire of the five elements is divided into two kinds, the fire of the sun and the fire of the Taiyin, just now this belongs to the fire of the sun, the fire is powerful and domineering, everywhere it passes, everything is burned out, how much energy you pour into it, it can burn for as long as it can, and it is difficult for any external force to extinguish it during the period;

The fire of Taiyin is more unique, it burns colorless, tasteless, invisible to the naked eye, and what it can ignite is not the real thing, but a person's soul and will, destroying a person's spirit, and torturing a person who is in pain. ”

The more Ye Bai listened, the more shocked he became, the more excited he became, and hurriedly asked, "What about the other attributes, are they just as powerful?" ”

"The five elements are mutually reinforcing, there is no such thing as which is stronger or weaker, it all depends on how you understand and apply it."

"How about showing me how?" Ye Bai pleaded.

The man in the cloak shook his head helplessly and said, "Then satisfy you once, look at it, this is wood!" ”

After speaking, a stream of green energy came out of the body, and after attaching to the sword's body, the entire sword seemed to come to life, becoming soft and soft, and constantly growing, and it quickly wrapped Ye Bai like a rattan, rolled into the air and shook it left and right.

"Enough is enough!" Ye Bai was thrown so that his eyes were full of stars, he was about to vomit, and immediately begged for mercy loudly.

The man in the cloak put it down, raised his eyebrows, and asked defiantly, "What else do you want to see?" ”

"I'm afraid you won't make it, water!" Ye Bai refused to admit defeat.

"Okay, daring!"

The man in the cloak picked up the long sword and stabbed straight at Ye Bai.

"Spunlace!"

With a soft snort, black energy quickly surged from his palm to the sword.

Then Ye Bai found that the steel sword body suddenly disappeared, turning into droplets of water that flew onto his skin, and then penetrated along the pores, and as soon as he entered the third point, it suddenly deformed, turning into spikes and piercing his whole body, making him look like a humanoid hedgehog.

"Ah~"

Ye Bai hissed in pain and wanted to pull out these stingers, but when he stretched out his hand, he found that these stingers couldn't be caught at all.

"Water is invisible, can penetrate everywhere, drill at the cracks, the most is unguardable, if you master the mystery of water, in addition to the 360-degree absolute defense without dead ends, it is difficult for someone to resist your attack.

In addition, there is a common belief that water is too soft and therefore not highly defensive, which is a misconception. The divine beast in the water is Xuanwu, and its defense power is the highest, but it is not an overnight thing to apply and master. ”

Next, the man in the cloak demonstrated the mysteries of alchemy and earthy art for him again, and he was so amazed that he wanted to learn it immediately.

"Since the five elements can control the forces of nature such as water and fire, can wind, rain, thunder, and electricity also be controlled by them?" Ye Bai was curious.

The man in the cloak said unhappily: "If you had read the sword book I left you before, these doubts would have been solved long ago, and you wouldn't have to wait until now to waste my words." ”

"Can't you just tell me?"

The cloaked man shook his head and threw the Qinglian Sword back to him.

Ye Bai stretched out his hand to take it, it was cold to the touch, and a cold feeling spread from his palm, quickly engulfing his whole body, and then he was horrified to find that his arm began to freeze, extending all over his body, leaving only his head still outside.

"Listen." The man in the cloak said, "I'll explain the "Five Elements Formula" to you again, you must listen carefully, and be sure to write it down word for word:

The sky is open to the son, the earth is ugly, and life is in Yin. Since the chaos of Hongmeng, open the world, people stand in it, heaven, earth and man three talents, the clear floats up for the sky, the five elements of heavenly fortune, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, time-sharing education, in order to become all things......

The five elements, supplemented by yin and yang, blended with the eight trigrams, correspond to the heavenly stems, Qiankun, colors, and divine beasts:

Gold: Western, Heptsin, White, White Tiger;

Wood: Oriental, A B, Green, Green Dragon;

Water: Northern, Nong, Black, Xuanwu;

Fire: Southern, Cing, Red, Vermilion;

Soil: Central, Wuji, Yellow, Huanglin.

……

Among them, gold is the hexagram and the hexagram, the dry is the sky, and the hexagram is Ze;

Wood is the earthquake hexagram and Xun hexagram, the earthquake is thunder, and the Xun is the wind;

The soil is the Gen hexagram and the Kun hexagram, the Gen is the mountain, and the Kun is the earth;

Kan is water, and separation is fire.

Therefore, alchemy can change the color of heaven and earth, earth can displace mountains, and wood can evolve into thunder and wind.

If it can be flexibly applied, know how to adapt, and combine with each other, it can evolve into all things in the world, such as: the wind passes through the water and the cold is ice, the rain accumulates into clouds, and the wind and clouds meet to produce lightning......

The structure of the human body is also conceived by the five elements, as the so-called 'five elements are divided, the five organs are the five treasures', the five treasures are the soul, the gods, the will, the spirit, the will, the five organs are the liver, heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys, one by one corresponds to the five elements, that is, wood, fire, earth, metal, water.

Therefore, cultivating wood is beneficial to the liver and strengthens the soul; Cultivating fire, benefiting the heart and strengthening the spirit, and so on......

Once you have mastered this law, you will only have a clear purpose when you cultivate, and you will have a more targeted cultivation.

In addition, you must also understand the principle that the five elements are mutually reinforcing.

The five elements are born together: wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to gold, and gold gives birth to water.

The five elements are mutually restrained: Jin Kemu, so just wins soft; Mu Ketu, so the specialization is better than the scattered; Tu Ke water, so the real is better than the false; Water overcomes fire, so the crowd prevails; Fire is golden, so Jing is strong.

Cultivating the Five Elements is not only to improve your strength, but also to give you insight into all the principles of the world, so that you can stay away from confusion and worries, and get rid of the eight hardships and eight difficulties, this is the upper realm of cultivation! ”

Ye Bai nodded again and again when he heard this, and sighed: "The Five Elements are really awesome!" ”

"That's nature!" The man in the cloak looked smug and asked, "Have you written it down?" ”

Ye Bai exclaimed: "Big brother didn't expect that you are not only handsome, but also rich and talented, you are really a model for my generation, admire and admire!" ”

"Don't be a sycophant, I'm asking if you remember?"

Ye Bai hesitated and said: "Well, this five elements, it is divided into gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and it also restrains each other!" It also has a certain relationship with the divine beasts, what white tigers, green dragons, and vermilion birds...... Those are all divine beasts, quite powerful existences! ”

"You didn't remember, did you?" The man's face darkened suddenly.

"Big brother!" Ye Bai shouted aggrievedly, "I'm a human brain, not a computer, how can I remember if you say so much, please can you write it down!" ”

"Then you said it earlier, I'm very tired of talking now that my soul is weak!"

The man in the cloak just wanted to get angry, and suddenly recalled that when he first learned the Five Elements Formula, the master had explained it to himself thousands of times, but he had never complained or disliked, and his heart suddenly became calm.

nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, you can start with fire refining first, and we'll come little by little." ”

After speaking, he lifted his ice, asked him to sit down with his eyes closed, calmed his mind, and said in his ear: "Fire corresponds to the five visceral hearts, corresponding to the five Tibetan gods, the color is red, you will guide the red energy in your body to the atrium, concentrate the divine consciousness refining, and see how the effect is." ”

Ye Bai understood, and channeled the red crystal energy stored in the divine platform to the heart through the meridians, and there was a sudden burst of warmth, igniting a small flame, and as the more energy was injected, the desire to burn became stronger and stronger.

The man in the cloak seemed to be able to see everything that was happening inside him, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pondered: "Although this kid is a bit of a ruffian and has an average memory, his understanding is really good. Sometimes, although he is messing around, he is bent on seeking advice, and he can also dive into cultivation, and over time, he will become a great tool! ”

After thinking about it, seeing that the energy in Ye Bai's heart had accumulated enough, he prompted: "Try to inject this power into the sword in your hand." ”

Ye Bai did so, and the red energy with the flames flowed out through his arm, covering the sword body and burning as soon as it came into contact with the air.
