Chapter 62 Sword Emerges from the Imperial Palace, A Concept for Raising Treasures
With the five palaces standing in a tripod formation, Li Ya's soul slowly began to recover.
What he had just witnessed far exceeded his imagination. What incredible power this was! It was a divine manifestation based solely on his memories, or perhaps it came from another realm.
With a thought, he knew what he was doing, and with a wave of his hand, the other four palaces were established—it was simply an incredible power.
With the help of our ancestors, I have already mastered the basics of the "Five Pivots and Five Palaces Orthodox Chapters". The remaining task is to strengthen the true energy of the Five Elements.
This method is indeed exquisite, but apart from Li Ya, it's likely that no one else can cultivate it.
Why?
Firstly, they could also shake the ancestor's name, and it was the same one. In that case, Li Ya could be considered to have a fellow villager.
The second is that there is also a spiritual pivot, with the five palaces rotating and the five elements balancing each other. Every time the energy is imbalanced, the corresponding practice must be performed to achieve orderly waxing and waning.
Only by constantly monitoring the operation of the spiritual pivot can the cultivation technique be continuously monitored and adjusted.
If it were done by manpower, how could one work day and night, without stopping, devoting oneself entirely to it?
However, the ancestor just now made a move, pressing the Spirit Pivot into the soul, which seemed to be done by some means. Originally, there was a question and answer session, but now the Spirit Pivot works just as well as one's own arm.
Li Ya also gained a better understanding of the Ling Shu. Based on practical experience, deduction was much faster and less costly than deduction from thin air.
If all the books in the Yunfu Sect's collection could be entered into the Ling Shu, the speed of Ling Shu's deductions would probably double.
"Therefore, we need to feed the Spiritual Pivot more 'data'."
After understanding the changes in the Spiritual Pivot, Li Ya silently bowed towards the void, and then returned his thoughts to cultivation.
The complete introduction to "The Five Pivots and Five Palaces" has three steps: establishing the palace, invoking the emperor, and circulating qi. The two most basic steps have already been completed.
The remaining task is to divide the Qi and return it to the palace, distributing the true Qi of the five elements into the internal organs and imperial palaces, and suppressing it with the Daoist rhyme of the Emperor.
"The Five Emperors descend upon the body, the Five Palaces establish the tripod, with generation and restraint, waxing and waning, and the ebb and flow of time. When things are prosperous, they are restrained; when they are weak, they are replenished; when things are stagnant, they are dispersed; when things are scattered, they are gathered. The Five Virtues govern the Qi, the principles of the hexagrams rotate, and the palaces determine the order."
The cultivation method given by Ling Shu has one advantage: it surpasses all other cultivation methods because it avoids obscure language and is simple and easy to understand word by word.
Li Ya sat calmly with a clear mind, using his divine soul to govern the Five Emperors Palace, and began to slowly adjust according to the situation reflected by the Spiritual Pivot.
"I originally cultivated the 'Azure Mist Condensing Wood Nourishing Yuan Technique,' and my Azure Mist True Qi was abundant, but I lost my balance."
When wood flourishes, it activates the Palace of the White Emperor of Metal, urging metal to restrain wood, thus calming the abundance. It borrows the somber Daoist rhythm of the White Emperor to regulate the dispersing of the Green Emperor's life force, ensuring that the wood energy is generated without excess and thrives without chaos.
Then, circulate the "Fire Pivot Red Palace Chapter" transformed from the "Record of Cultivating Qi with Lesser Yang Fire" to generate fire with wood, and let the liver store blood to nourish the heart.
The five palaces rotate, and this process cannot be accomplished in a short time.
Over the next few days, Li Ya's mind was completely focused on the five internal organs and five palaces, repeatedly guiding the five elements' true energy to balance their balance. Initially, the strength of the true energy in each palace varied greatly.
The Azure Emperor's palace was the most powerful, followed by the White Emperor with the help of the sword pill. The other three palaces were not ranked and were not unified, which caused the flow of true qi in his body to be sluggish.
The more this is the case, the more one needs to circulate true energy until it flows smoothly and is balanced and orderly.
"When the fire is not agitated, the wood is not scattered, the earth is not stagnant, the metal is not weak, and the water is not cold, the five emperors are each in their proper positions, the five palaces are each performing their duties, and the five elements follow their respective paths, this is the most ideal state, which can be called the current stage of great achievement."
However, for Li Ya, it's still a long way off.
He devoted all his attention to this practice, day and night.
Every day, even every hour, was meticulously arranged by the Ling Shu.
According to the order of heaven and earth and the waxing and waning of the five elements, the Ling Shu arranges the daily practice time to refine the true qi of the five elements.
At the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), the green wood begins to rise, and the wood energy in the east is at its peak. Sit quietly to warm and nourish the liver, and practice the "Wood Pivot Green Palace Chapter".
At noon, when the sun is at its zenith and the fire energy in the south is at its most intense, one should concentrate one's mind to temper the heart and depart from the Red Emperor's Palace of Fire, practicing the "Chapter on the Red Palace of Fire Pivot".
At Shen time (3-5 PM), the earth's energy descends, and the central earth energy is at its thickest. Calm your mind and solidify the spleen, the earth of the Yellow Emperor's palace, and practice the "Earth Pivot Yellow Palace Chapter".
At midnight, the moonlight is clear and still, and the water vapor in the north is most serene. One should cultivate and nourish the kidneys, focusing on the Black Emperor Palace of the Kan Water, and practice the "Water Pivot Mysterious Palace Chapter".
At the hour of You (5-7 PM), the air is crisp and frosty, and the metal energy in the west is at its purest. Concentrate your mind and refine your lungs, focusing on the White Emperor's Palace of Metal, and practice the "Golden Pivot White Palace Chapter".
As dawn and dusk turn, the Five Emperors take turns in charge, and the Five Palaces are maintained in turn. One nourishes the five internal organs of the Imperial Palace, and does not forget to condense one's life essence to nourish the five internal organs.
The elixirs I had originally purchased for cultivating qi and replenishing blood were being consumed at five times the normal rate.
Day after day, the Five Elements True Qi became increasingly mellow and pure, flowing smoothly and harmoniously, and the Five Emperors' Daoist Rhyme condensed in the Imperial Palace, becoming increasingly stable.
After a hundred days and nights of intensive cultivation, the ethereal true qi gradually solidified, and the dantian appeared empty, with the remaining five elements of true qi hidden in the hidden orthodox orthodox orthodox meridians.
The only discrepancy with the results of the Ling Shu deduction is that the Five Emperors Palace is clearly a good place with a capacity no less than that of the Dantian, yet it has not been filled even after thirty days.
As the swirling true energy that had lingered for a hundred days slowly settled, it all returned to Li Ya's limbs and bones, and to the Five Emperors' Spiritual Palace.
The wood-elemental true energy he cultivated in the past has subtly changed Li Ya, making him handsome but also slightly effeminate.
Now its temperament has changed, replaced by a gentle yet profound feeling.
Opening his eyes, a pair of pupils faintly flashed with five colors: blue, red, yellow, white, and black.
"With the Five Elements establishing my palace, my foundation should be no less than that of those great Dao disciples!"
Li Ya muttered to himself, took a light step, unlocked the door, and went out.
When I entered the training room, it was the dead of winter, and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow. When I came out, it was already springtime.
A gentle breeze rustles through the bamboo, its clear sound echoing in the courtyard, and the mountain's spiritual energy dissipates into the air.
In the past, only the wood-attribute spiritual energy would be absorbed and refined by these scattered spiritual energies of heaven and earth.
But now that all five elements are present, this spiritual energy, regardless of its elemental attributes, is absorbed into the body.
The five spiritual chapters operated on their own, refining themselves into the five elements of true energy.
Wood energy nourishes the liver, fire energy nourishes the heart, earth energy strengthens the spleen, metal energy moistens the lungs, and water energy nourishes the kidneys. Without any deliberate guidance, this mysterious energy circulation is completed.
The efficiency of cultivation has more than doubled compared to the past.
With a thought, Li Ya took out the Nine Yang Talisman Sword. A wisp of fire-attribute Crimson True Qi emerged from the Crimson Palace in his heart and entered it, instantly solidifying into a fiery light that surrounded the talisman sword.
The flames were so intense that they could melt gold and dissolve bones.
Then, within the White Emperor's Golden Palace, the shimmering white sword pellet suddenly emitted a sword cry, carrying a unique murderous intent, and transformed into a sword light that plunged into the Nine Yang Talisman Sword.
Li Ya clearly felt that the talisman sword had become heavier, and a sharp sword light was hidden in the firelight.
At this moment, Li Ya recalled what he had obtained by secretly refining the sword pill during the past hundred days.
Refined with Tai Xin True Qi, the sword pellet instinctively stayed in the White Emperor's Golden Palace in the lungs, faintly resonating with the palace. The more it was refined, the more the sword pellet nourished the lungs.
"The lungs are the residence of metal, which governs killing and sharpness. The sword pellet is a treasure of metal in terms of killing and warfare, and it is naturally compatible with the White Emperor's Golden Palace. The three of them benefit each other."
Put away the Nine Yang Talisman Sword and return the sword pellet to its palace.
Li Ya focused his mind and looked inward. He saw that within the White Emperor's Golden Palace, which was crystal clear and covered with golden patterns, wisps of pure golden energy swirled and flowed.
The White Emperor Sword Pill floated quietly in the hand of the White Emperor statue, pulsating slightly, its rhythm resonating with the lungs and acupoints.
The sword pellet first took root in the Lung Metal Aperture, and then resided in the White Emperor's Golden Palace, thus becoming part of the physical body's Five Elements system.
With a thought, the golden palace's energy surged forth, and the sword intent radiated from his body in an instant.
"I'm afraid that, apart from the natal treasures used at the seventh level of Qi Refining, other acupoints are used to embed spiritual objects and magical treasures, just like the sword pellets we have now."
Using the five internal organs and five palaces of the physical body, using the spiritual energy of the five palaces to nourish the five elemental magic treasures, and then using the five elemental magic treasures to inversely enhance the cultivation of the five palaces, this method is feasible. Without the spiritual pivot's deduction, Li Ya knew it was feasible.
"Where can I find a treasure of the same grade as the Chen Su Tian Du Sword Pill?"
