Chapter 7 Spirituality: Yin and Yang
On the deep forest stone, Jun Yan sat cross-legged. I touched the back of my head and hissed...... It hurts hotly. Jun Yan muttered with some dissatisfaction: "Uncle Lei is too ruthless, it hurts until now when he is carried out." It's just a reckless first-order demonic beast, as long as I over-liberate, even if it's a second- or third-order demonic beast, I can't make a mistake. "Of course, Jun Yan is just complaining, if he really encounters a second- or third-order demonic beast, Jun Yan will definitely run away. After all, Jun Yan definitely didn't want to bear the price of over-limiting liberation at level twenty or thirty. Patting his sleeve, Jun Yan took out the small cloth bag from his pocket and sighed, "Don't take the risk, how can I afford this." ”
Opening the small cloth bag, Jun Yan poured a small Xiaoice-like thing into his palm - this is a common first-order water variant: the ice spirit core. The spirit core is double-pyramidal, crystal clear, like an ice crystal that will not melt, exuding a faint coolness. This is what Jun Yan asked Cheng Hao to buy from the county market, and the "east wind" that Jun Yan needs.
Jun Yan pinched it up and weighed it twice in his hand, "Just such a small thing, it cost me three thousand gold? Jun Yan gently tossed the spirit core and grabbed it again, his eyes instantly sharpened, and said, "That's it, that's it." As long as the first layer of complete liberation can be carried out perfectly, everything is worth it. ”
After that, Jun Yan took off the necklace on his chest and put it on the ring finger of his right hand again, and the pendant glowed and deformed with Jun Yan's thoughts, forming a purple-gold ring. The lines on the ring are complex, and the spiritual energy surges, which is not like a mortal thing.
"In the name of 'Jun Yan', the Liberation Ceremony of the Binding God Seal a Layer begins!"
With Jun Yan's soft drink, a purple-gold spiritual energy lit up on his ring, and it traveled from his right arm to his whole body like lightning, as if to check whether Jun Yan's state met the conditions for the first layer of liberation. After confirming that it was correct, the ring actually sounded with a cheerful sound, and then the light flashed, enveloping Jun Yan in it. The next moment, Jun Yan, who had not even opened up his spiritual aperture, slowly floated up and floated to the surface of the lake.
Jun Yan took the opportunity to throw the spirit core upward, and the spirit core turned into mottled points of light in the air and floated towards the ring, where it was absorbed. Seeing this, Jun Yan waved his right hand towards the surface of the lake, and a cold spiritual energy flew out, instantly freezing the lake water, forming a smooth ice surface.
Gently falling on the ice, the light on Jun Yan's right finger ring converged, forming a film of light over his right hand. Jun Yan pinched the trick and recited the mantra, his hand was a sword finger, with two fingers as a pen, and under the guidance of the ring, he drew left and right on the ice, forming a mysterious ritual formation.
"Alright. Everything is ready to go. Jun Yan took a long breath and glanced at the whole picture of the magic circle. Such a complex and mysterious magic circle, if there was no guidance and assistance from the ring, it would be impossible for Jun Yan to draw it at this time.
Everything is ready, the east wind has arrived. Jun Yan didn't delay, he sat directly in the center of the magic circle, closing his eyes and cultivating. The dark red spirit pattern emerged with the operation of the spiritual energy, shining more rapidly than before, Jun Yan's body temperature rose, his whole body began to heat and turn red, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell. A look of pain began to appear on his face.
At this point, the circle also starts running. A cold mist floated on the ice, converging towards Jun Yan, and the ice spirit energy floated around him, greatly reducing the burning pain that Jun Yan endured.
As Jun Yan's cultivation continued, the red lines on Jun Yan's right arm began to change, and between the flickers, the dark red lines were eroded by a black spiritual energy, which was like ink and jade, intertwined, eroded, and dissipated with the dark red spiritual energy on the lines, and finally replaced it. The process is extremely slow, but unstoppable. After working hard in the middle of the night, in the end, all the lines on the right arm were occupied by black.
The ceremony was a success!
At the moment when the black veins were fully formed, a large amount of spiritual energy converged from heaven and earth, forming a vortex of spiritual energy, which swirled and converged on the top of Jun Yan's head, converging in one place. Under the washing of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy of Jun Yan's whole body condensed into a point at his divine court, and suddenly exploded as if opening the heavens and the earth, forming a strange space, absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy pouring in, gradually becoming full from emptiness - this is the formation of spiritual energy.
In an instant, Jun Yan closed his eyes, but his consciousness spread to the surroundings, observing every grass and tree by the small lake. The noise of frogs and cicadas, and the fragrance of the earth, are imprinted in my mind one by one, and they are extremely clear. This is the opening of the Spiritual Consciousness.
Suddenly, the black spiritual essence spread out from all around Jun Yan's body, and the flowing black jade surrounded and roared around him, this was the spiritual yin. But although the power of Yin Yao is magnificent, if you look closely, you will find a sense of disobedience.
According to common sense, after being promoted to the first order, a cultivator's spiritual energy will be contaminated with the cultivator's attributes when it is used, and it will become a spiritual quality. Spiritual energy is the same in the world, and everyone has it. However, the spiritual qualities are different, just like fingerprints, and even twin brothers will have subtle differences. But in any case, at the beginning of the first order, the spiritual essence should unconsciously spread and hover around the practitioner, wrapping it up, which is the phenomenon of the initial formation and natural manifestation of the spiritual essence.
However, this Yin power only occupied half of the space around Jun Yan's body, and the other half was empty. And Yin Yao also seems to be intertwined with invisible objects, and the invisible objects surround and guard Jun Yan together.
In fact, this invisible object is the yang yao. Yin has the darkest color, black domineering, unchangeable and uncontaminated. However, the yang is colorless and formless, and it contains all things unconsciously. Yin has a form and yang is invisible, this positive and negative yin and yang is all the spiritual forms of Jun Yan.
In the Tian Yuan World, although the spiritual essence has a variety of postures, according to its nature changes, it is always divided into two realms: inside and outside. There are two genera and seven systems in the inner Dao, which are the most orthodox spiritual attributes in the Tian Yuan world. The two genera are light and dark, and the seven genera are water, fire, earth, wood, wind, thunder, and sound. Collectively known as the "Tianyuan Nine Paths", the cultivators of the two seven lines are both "Inner Dao", also known as "Righteous Path". There are also a small number of cultivators' spiritual qualities that possess the characteristics of both systems, such as fire and water, and the spiritual qualities that are shaped like magma, which are called "pan-inner paths". However, a very small number of cultivators' spiritual qualities are very different from the Nine Paths of Tianyuan, and they have nothing to do with it, that is, they are not among the Nine Paths, and they are called "Outer Paths".
And Jun Yan's yin and yang is a kind of external spiritual quality.
Jun Yan successfully completed the complete liberation of the first sealing layer, and without the suppression of the seal, Jun Yan's strength also soared, and the long-suppressed spiritual energy in his body was still left after breaking through the first order, reaching the eleventh level of general knowledge. Jun Yan became a first-order cultivator.
Gathering his breath, the power of yin and yang wrapped around his body slowly dissipated, Jun Yan opened his eyes, and his face was irrepressibly excited. Jun Yan held the ice with one hand and was about to get up, but before Jun Yan could get up, the ring on his hand flickered unusually quickly, and the magic circle on the ice emitted a dazzling white light to echo it. The bright light flashed, and when I looked here again, the surface of the lake was sparkling and the water was gurgling, and there was not a trace of ice, as if everything that had just happened here was an illusion. And Jun Yan has disappeared without a trace.
A dark figure quietly appeared in the shadow of a tree not far away, rushed to the lake in three or two steps, and looked at the empty lake in a daze. Although it was not clear to see the dark shadow man's facial features, he was clearly in shock.
"How is it possible? A mere little hairy child of the first order actually disappeared in an instant under my nose!" The dark shadow man's mood gradually turned from surprise to fear, and he asked himself, "How many secrets does this child sent by the 'god' have fallen to the ground?"
If you want to ask how many secrets, I'm afraid Yuan Junyan himself won't be able to answer. Just like at this moment, Jun Yan was in a desert with a blank face, messy in the wind. Three soul-critical questions swirled in his mind: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? One hand was still touching the ground, and the ice that was cold one moment turned into blazing sand the next, and the huge contrast made Jun Yan a little overwhelmed.
"I remember that there was no such step in the complete liberation of the first layer of seals?" Looking at the vast sea of sand, Jun Yan was obviously a little puzzled, "Is it also part of the missing memory?"
The sun was scorching, Jun Yan felt that the moisture in his body was losing rapidly, and it was not okay to sit still, he had to find a way out. After a series of thinking and judgment, Jun Yan decided to go in the direction of carrying the sun behind his back.
Of course, he walked with the sun on his back! Isn't it a fool to be facing the sun? Jun Yan meditated in his heart.
However, before he could go far, there was a sudden strong wind in front of him, and the scorching sun was instantly obscured by dark clouds, and for a time the sky and the earth changed color, lightning and thunder, like the end of the world. Such a sudden change made Jun Yan even more puzzled, and at this moment he raised his head and gestured with his hand towards the sky: "I remember that there was a big sun here just now, why is it gone?"
Before Jun Yan could finish complaining, as the ground trembled, dark red psionic flames surged out of the sand not far away, like magma gushing, and a giant dragon with red veins and black bodies appeared from it.
"Aha!'Dragon', I knew you were doing a ghost!" Jun Yan pointed at the huge binding god, crossed his waist and raised his head and laughed. Although he couldn't figure out the situation, when he arrived in the desert, Junyan thought of Minnan, so he deduced that his appearance here must have something to do with the 'dragon', so he wasn't nervous.
However, the binding god did not have the slightest consciousness of reunion after a long absence, the dragon head approached Jun Yan, opened his big mouth, swallowed it in one gulp in Jun Yan's stunned eyes, turned back to the flaming magma, and dived into the ground and disappeared.
The sky in the desert changed again, the dark clouds and thunder suddenly disappeared, and the scorching sun still baked the earth as if nothing had happened.
