Chapter 443: Retreat

"...One yin and one yang are called Tao."

"The combination of Yin and Yang creates infinite creation and nourishes all things... Therefore, all things in the heaven and earth are differentiated by Yin and Yang."

"Even the five elements are divided into yin and yang. For example, A and B belong to wood, and Jia wood is yang and Yi wood is yin; Bing and Ding belong to fire, Bing fire is yang, Ding fire is yin... Rengui belongs to water, Renshui It is yang, Guishui is yin..."

"Yin and Yang are changing, heaven and earth are changing!"

"For example, the method of rejoicing between a man and a woman is superficial but has deep connotation!"

"This is the way of Hehuan Peak."

Shaoyang Mountain.

On a mission platform, a young monk with half black and half white hair and clothes sat cross-legged peacefully, and his voice stopped suddenly.

The seats below were packed.

The disciples from each peak sat on it, thinking carefully about the insights taught by the other party.

Wang Ba stood among the crowd, his eyes thoughtful.

The purpose of Hehuan Peak's cultivation was explained in a few words by Pang Zhenshou.

He also has a better understanding of some obscure contents in the "Return of the Universe".

But there is still a long way to go before complete mastery.

Soon, some monks couldn't help but stand up and ask questions.

The figures on the mission platform looked indifferent and replied one by one.

Wang Hao gained quite a lot from listening to these questions and answers.

Until no one stood up to ask for advice, the figure on the preaching platform looked around, paused slightly at Wang Hao, then passed Wang Hao and whispered to everyone:

"Is there still any doubt? If there is no doubt, let's leave today."

"Thank you Pang Zhen for guarding and preaching!"

Everyone immediately stood up, bowed respectfully to the figure on the mission platform, and then dispersed.

On the platform, a young monk who was half black and half white was about to leave.

But suddenly I heard a voice coming from below:

"Zhengshou Pang, this disciple still has some questions, please give me some advice."

There was no surprise in the young monk's eyes. He turned around, looked at Wang Yan below, and nodded slightly:

"If you have any questions, you might as well ask."

Wang Ba bowed apologetically: "It's a delay in guarding time."

Then he muttered:

"The guard just said that the way of yin and yang gives rise to all things. So, the five elements, wind, thunder, etc. are all in this yin and yang. So what is the difference between yin and yang and the five elements?"

When the young monk heard this, a hint of approval appeared on his face:

"You asked well... let's put it this way, Yin and Yang transform into all things and are deeply contained in them. This is like a person's soul, and the Five Elements, or other wind, thunder, ice, snow, etc., are expressions, that is, body."

"The human body may be complicated in composition, but the soul is everywhere."

"But to say this, it completely separates yin and yang from the five elements, which is not entirely accurate. Yin and yang are more of a combination of soul and body... Do you understand this?"

Wang Hao nodded.

The example given by the other party is very vivid and it is not difficult to understand.

But the problem that currently bothers him is how to embody the Yin and Yang Way?

Just like the five elements, the metal element has the magic power of the metal element, and the fire element has the magic power of the fire element, then does the yin and yang path also have such magic power? And how to refine it?

This point, stated in "The Law of Return of the Universe", is too obscure, and he has not yet been able to fully understand it.

He immediately asked his doubts.

"The way of Yin and Yang is not the same as the Five Elements. The Qi of these two is the mechanism of creation. Although it is everywhere in the heaven and earth, if there is no wonderful method, it is nowhere to be found."

The black and white young monk replied carefully:

“It is not visible on the outside, but seen on the inside.”

"Once the Tao is completed, it can communicate with the heaven and earth, accumulate the two qi of yin and yang, and hide them in the Yuanying or the nose of the Yuanshen."

"It can not only bless the five elements and other magical powers, but also release damage to the enemy, and it can also absorb all things...it all depends on your understanding of the Yin and Yang."

Wang Hao suddenly realized, and then he bowed deeply to the black and white young monk.

"Thank you Pang Zhengshou for your guidance."

The black and white young monk shook his head slightly:

"You're welcome, the Tao of Yin and Yang is profound and profound, so I concentrate on it, but I also feel that I can only get it by chance... You are cultivating the Tao of Ten Thousand Dharmas, so you don't need to be profound, otherwise it will delay you."

When Wang Bao heard this, he immediately understood that the other party had already recognized his identity, and he quickly saluted again:

"Wang Bao thanked the guard for the reminder."

"Um."

The young monk nodded, hesitated, and then said:

"If I see your master, tell him for me that I was wrong about what happened last time."

After that, he said no more, and then disappeared in front of the Wanxiang Sutra Library not far away.

"Is it because of what happened in Chen Country last time..."

Wang Ba couldn't help but recall the time when Pang Zhenshou appeared in Chen State to prevent Yao Wudi from killing the evil god.

Shake his head slightly.

With Master's character, he might have kept it in mind for a long time.

"Let's give it a try when the time comes."

Such thoughts passed quickly. He pondered on the spot for a while, and then flew straight to a nearby secret place that was quite strictly guarded.

…

"According to Pang Zhenshou, the Yin-Yang Way can only be practiced in the Nascent Soul Realm. Master was able to integrate the Pure Yang Way in the Golden Core Realm, but I don't know how he did it."

"That's all, let's think about such troublesome things later in the Nascent Soul."

The ‘Yongzhi Secret Realm’ is only open to the deputy hall masters and mountain masters at the first level.

While Wang Hao was thinking about what he had just gained, his eyes scanned the entire secret realm.

The secret realm is not big, only about ten miles horizontally and vertically.

But the abundance of spiritual energy was simply the most he had ever seen in his life.

The huge pressure caused by the abundance of spiritual energy in the secret realm also made him feel that it was difficult to breathe.

In this secret realm, there were several figures that looked a little unfamiliar, distributed in several corners of the secret realm.

They kept their distance from each other tacitly to prevent the movement during practice from affecting others.

"It seems to be the deputy hall masters who are practicing on a temporary basis."

Wang Ba glanced at it and did not look at it more, to prevent his sight from arousing the induction of others and affecting their practice.

While sorting out his thoughts, he found a place away from others and took out and put down the futon and other things that helped his practice.

Then he adjusted his state and began to breathe and refine.

The body seemed to have become a huge funnel, and the surrounding spiritual energy swarmed into Wang Ba's body under the strong negative pressure.

Soon, a spiritual energy vortex visible to the naked eye was formed above Wang Ba's head.

Wang Ba felt it, but was still a little dissatisfied.

Suddenly, he thought of something and took out another dragon head token from the storage magic weapon.

It was the Great Qian Dragon Token that Chi Jian gave him.

Holding the dragon token, he immediately felt that the lines on the golden elixir in his body were more lively.

The speed of refining spiritual energy was 30% faster!

"Good treasure!"

Wang Ba was surprised and happy.

He couldn't help but feel a little more grateful to Chi Jian.

Then he quickly closed his eyes and practiced seriously.

In several corners of the secret realm.

The movement caused by Wang Ba's practice suddenly awakened several people who were practicing.

Seeing that the stranger who appeared in the secret realm was a cultivator who was only in the middle stage of the golden elixir, he couldn't help but be extremely surprised.

Several people looked at each other and quickly communicated:

"Who is this? The number of people that Yongzhi Secret Realm can accommodate is limited. Aren't only the deputy hall master and the mountain master allowed to enter?"

"Where did the deputy hall master of the Jindan realm come from in the sect?"

"I don't know. We rarely go out. We only went out once for the previous matter of the acting sect master..."

"I remember... Brother Liu, your Earthly Objects Hall seems to have a general director of the middle Jindan period. Isn't this a match?"

"General director? What position is this?"

Someone couldn't help but wonder.

But before others could answer, they were interrupted by a big man in red:

"Okay, don't say anything. My time in Yongzhi Secret Realm is almost up. I don't have time to care about these. Let's practice quickly!"

Hearing the words of the big man in red, the others couldn't help but nod:

"That's right, that's right. My time is almost up. After it's used up, I can only go to the secret realm of a lower point and come back in a few years."

"Me too, let's hurry up!"

Several people closed their eyes one by one and began to practice again.

But Wang Ba was unaware of this.

He sorted out what he had learned in the past over and over again in his mind.

He pushed the golden elixir to its limit.

Under the strong negative pressure of spiritual energy, the magic patterns of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and stars on his Wanfa Golden Elixir kept turning.

He quickly refined the spiritual energy that flowed into the Dantian at an astonishing speed and then stored it in the golden elixir.

The already round golden elixir, under the continuous input of magic power, also underwent a subtle transformation bit by bit.

The golden elixir became larger and larger, and the surface became more round.

The flickering light became brighter and brighter.

So.

Two months later.

A deputy hall master in the secret realm opened his eyes, felt the rejection of the secret realm, glanced at the few people who were still practicing around him, and then looked at Wang Ba.

He disappeared in the secret realm helplessly.

Another month passed, and the big man in red stood up, with a glimmer of regret in his eyes:

"Unfortunately, the time is not long enough..."

He glanced at everyone, looked at Wang Ba's face twice more, and then disappeared from the spot.

Time passed by little by little.

The figures in the secret realm disappeared one by one, and new figures entered.

But they didn't stay in the secret realm for long, at most a year, and they had to leave.

Only Wang Ba never moved.

As his cultivation improved little by little, the spiritual vortex above his head became more and more amazing.

Time passed in a flash.

That day.

Wang Ba suddenly opened his eyes.

The star point at the center of his eyebrows lit up slightly.

In his eyes, there were also countless stars shining like stars.

"My body is finally stable."

"The Way of Stars has also been completely integrated..."

"But my mana and soul are still a little short."

Thinking of this, Wang Ba no longer hesitated, took out a large amount of spiritual food and swallowed it, then closed his eyes again, urged the Dragon Order, and the spiritual energy vortex above his head suddenly expanded a little more.

The vast amount of spiritual energy almost condensed into liquid and rushed into Wang Ba's body.

Time passed quickly.

Another day.

Wang Ba opened his eyes again.

A ray of brilliance flashed in his eyes, which instantly brightened the surroundings.

The spiritual energy vortex above his head also gradually shrank and then disappeared.

Feeling the perfect golden elixir in his dantian and the almost overflowing Yin Shen power in the Lingtai Yin Shen Temple, Wang Ba exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

"Finally, it's perfect!"

Thanks to Bing Daoren's continuous refining of incense and vows in the secret realm of beads, his Yin Shen power has benefited a lot and has now reached perfection.

"Next, it's time to integrate the physical blood and the power of the soul into it..."

The physical body, magical power, and spiritual soul are completely integrated into one, and with his entire foundation, a Yuan Ying of Ten Thousand Dharmas is born.

After that, it is about comprehending the meaning of Tao, condensing the principles of Tao, and moving towards the realm of divine transformation...

But after thinking about it, he still made a special trip.

After leaving the sect, he took out one hundred fourth-level spirit chickens from the spirit beast bag and cast the 'Hundred Lives Soul-Desecrating Curse'.

Fang Yi's cast was successful.

Outside the Lingtai Temple, a black substance appeared out of thin air that made his heart tremble.

Clinging to the surface of the temple, it is like a spreading vine.

These black substances seem to be full of extreme malice and coldness...like prying eyes from the abyss.

The statues in the Lingtai Temple shrank instinctively.

"The Hundred-Life Soul-blaspheming Curse is a curse formed by sacrificing a hundred creatures of the same level... I know the way of divine patterns, and made slight adjustments, and managed to withstand the curse of fourth-level creatures with my perfect golden elixir soul. …It’s still a bit risky, but there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Wang Ba felt the black substance that caused him great pressure, and his heart was filled with helplessness.

With the perfection of his soul, he could clearly feel that another person who had practiced the "Yin Shen Great Dream Sutra" was approaching at an alarming speed.

Only recently, he has quietly slowed down, seemingly waiting for Wang Ba to be promoted to Nascent Soul.

Regardless of whether that person was Han Xiangzi or not, he knew very clearly that the moment he achieved Nascent Soul, there would definitely be a confrontation between the two.

The Hundred-Life Soul-Desecrating Curse can protect the soul, and even the Yin God statue has a natural fear, which makes him have to take a risk.

Fortunately, his art of divine patterns became more and more sophisticated, and the modified Hundred-Life Soul-blaspheming Curse did not have a backlash on him as a caster.

After doing this, he immediately returned to the sect and visited the Treasure House of All Things.

Sure enough, as the sect leader said, no matter what kind of treasure related to the soul he chose, the yellow-skinned gourd in the Vientiane Treasure House did not stop him.

Even Patriarch Wuhe, who guarded the Vientiane Treasure House, personally gave guidance to Wang Ba and selected a suitable set of magic weapons and spiritual objects for Wang Ba.

"This magic weapon itself also has a burden on your soul, so it is best to choose only one that is most suitable, and these three fifth-level spiritual objects are also the treasures that are most suitable for you."

Patriarch Wuhe, who had a thin and lanky face, pointed to a topaz ring in front of him, a piece of dead wood with a dull red glow, a dragon horn, a palm-sized conch, several pieces of talisman paper with ancient handwriting, and a A box containing elixirs.

Then he told Wang Ba all the precautions for using this magic weapon, three spiritual objects, talismans, and elixirs.

"Thank you, Patriarch Wuhe."

Wang Ba gratefully bowed to Patriarch Wuhe.

"You're welcome. Sect Master Shao has already told me about your matter, so don't panic. Although Han Xiangzi is cultivating the void, the battle for souls does not depend entirely on the level of the realm. You can offset a lot of his strength by fighting at home. Advantage, besides, he doesn’t know that you have guessed his identity, and you have made so many preparations, so you still have a chance of winning, even if you do it mentally or not.”

Patriarch Wuhe consoled him seriously.

Wang Bao heard this and nodded with a smile.

I didn't feel too panicked.

All he could do has been done.

Magic weapons, spiritual objects, talismans, elixirs, spells, etc.

It also includes the ‘Substitute Death Magical Power’ which has not been triggered for a long time.

But he really didn't have any confidence in his heart.

The existence of refining the void is still a bit far away for him after all.

The sect's records on the methods of refining the void were also somewhat beyond his current scope of knowledge.

He didn't even know what methods Han Xiangzi would use to deal with him.

You can only arm yourself as much as possible before that moment comes.

But compared to when he first learned that his opponent was Han Xiangzi, at this moment, he didn't feel much fear in his heart.

More, there is only peace.

After leaving the Vientiane Treasure House.

Wang Hao returned to Wanfa Peak, and he and Bu Chan quietly listened to the sound of rain all night, and talked endlessly all night long.

"Senior brother, are you hiding something from me?"

Bu Chan suddenly asked.

"Haha, no way, it's just practice, you have to be relaxed and relaxed."

Wang Ba said with a smile, and there was nothing strange on his face.

Bu Chan stared at his face for a long time, then nodded doubtfully.

A night of divine intercourse, a night of intoxication.

After Bu Chan fell asleep, Wang Hao stood up silently and looked at Bu Chan apologetically for a long time before leaving.

But what he didn't know was that after he left, Bu Chan gently opened his eyes, filled with worry.

"Senior brother..."

…

Yongzhi Secret Realm.

Wang Ba sat down again in the cross-legged position where he practiced before.

All the treasures were ready, and he could finally concentrate wholeheartedly on trying to fuse his body, blood, golden elixir, mana, and soul into one.

The progress is pretty smooth.

His talent in the physical body is indeed average, but perhaps the massive thunder tribulations have tempered his physical blood to an extremely full level, so that his integration into the physical blood is not slow.

It only took more than a year for a faint layer of blood to appear above the golden light of the Wanfa Golden Pill.

But when he tried to integrate his soul, he encountered unprecedented difficulties.

No matter how he tried, his soul was like the breeze blowing over the stone, not blending with the golden elixir at all.

Time passed by little by little, and the blood of the body had been completely integrated into the Wanfa Jindan.

But there was still no progress in the soul.

It was clearly separated from the Jindan.

This affected the originally calm and peaceful state of mind.

His mood even began to become restless.

From time to time, he thought of the scene in his mind where he had not been able to achieve the Nascent Soul, and was succeeded by Han Yanzi and occupied his body...

"No! My current state is not right!"

Wang Ba suddenly woke up after noticing the imbalance of his state of mind.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think of what his master had said to him when he was in Chen State before:

"... If there is no progress in the closed-door hard practice, don't be anxious. You might as well go out for a walk, relax properly, and integrate the inside and the outside, which is the right way..."

"Relax properly, integrate the inside and the outside... Yes, Master is right, I should go out for a walk."

Wang Ba couldn't help but think of this thought in his mind.

Since he started practicing, he has only gone out a few times, and even if he went out, he mostly had a reason, and he had never gone out without a purpose.

Then he had an idea.

On the Wanfa Peak.

In the Secret Realm of the Pearl.

The Taoist in green clothes who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the snowy mountain suddenly opened his eyes.

A glimmer of light flashed in his indifferent eyes.

"Going out for a trip..."

The next moment, he stepped out of the Secret Realm of the Pearl.

He registered at the Rende Hall, then left the sect and flew straight to the south. (End of this chapter)
