Chapter 5: The Five Elements Cultivation Technique
The vexation that had been pent up in Xiao Yao's heart was suddenly dispelled by the fragrance.
Following the source of the fragrance, his gaze turned to the east wall where there was a long recessed hole. Inside the hole was placed an exquisite and delicate sheep fat jade bowl, its color was pure white, radiant and dazzling, as if the oil was about to drip down at any moment.
On the jade bowl, there is a pendant semi-circular stone icicle, which resembles a woman's jade breast. On the nipple of the breast, there is a pink pearl. Above the pearl, a drop of thick and sticky liquid-like substance trembles gently, as if it were about to drip down.
After a moment, the liquid on the nipple finally condensed and dripped into the jade bowl. At the moment it fell, a strange fragrance suddenly filled the air, refreshing the mind and making one feel invigorated, as if they had been baptized with sweet dew. The dense fragrance lingered in the stone cave for a long time without dissipating.
Chu Yu smelled the suddenly rich fragrance and couldn't help but curiously look over. The jade bowl had accumulated about half a bowl of creamy milk due to the dripping liquid, with ripples forming on its surface.
This should be the "essence of heaven and earth" and "immortal dew" that ancient alchemists like Qiu Zhongyuan talked about. Xiao Yao, who had some knowledge in this area, knew that it was actually liquid calcium carbonate formed from stalactites.
There is no written record, it seems that finding a way out is difficult now.
Xiao Yao was secretly lamenting when his stomach made a strange noise. Sitting on the white jade bed, after eating something, Xiao Yao's eyes gradually began to droop from exhaustion.
Leaning on the white jade couch, her consciousness gradually relaxed, and Xiao Yao didn't even notice that she was clutching those two jade tokens in her hand.
In fact, this is not an ordinary jade plaque, it has a special name among ancient cultivators like Qiu Zhongyuan - Jade Pupil Token.
The so-called Jade Pupil is a treasure of the immortal world, which takes beautiful jade with the spiritual essence of heaven and earth, infuses it with the divine consciousness of the immortal family, and records various messages with the divine spirit.
Only to see Xiao Yao's left hand clenched tightly, a strange colored light burst out from his body, instantly covering his entire body. The white jade bed where Xiao Yao lay also responded with a beam of light, and a colorful glow emerged from Xiao Yao's hand along the meridians, straight up to the top of his head.
Xiao Yao's body shook and he was like a crystal statue, frozen in place. At this moment, an unexpected change was happening in his consciousness space.
These two jade pupils contain the "Wu Xing Lian Zhen Lu" transmitted by Zou Yan and cultivated by Qiu Zhongyuan, as well as a "Fa Tian Bao Jian" written by Qiu Zhongyuan for seeking treasure in cultivation.
This jade pupil was sealed by Autumn Zhongyuan's divine consciousness, and only a cultivator who had also cultivated their own divine consciousness could read it with their own mind.
Xiao Yao absorbed the Xian Yuan Qi emitted by the "Di Ru Zhen Lu" left in the stone room, and his body and consciousness were completely relaxed in his sleep, unknowingly entering the state of "entering stillness and emptiness" that cultivators talked about.
Under the effect of calming the mind and soothing the spirit of this white jade bed, which also has the effect of concentrating one's mind, Xiao Yao's consciousness smoothly obtained the qualification to read these two cultivation treasure books through Yu Yan Jian's recognition.
At this time, Xiao Yao's left hand tightly grasped the Jade Pupil Jian, and his inner consciousness made contact with the message left inside the Jian.
At this very moment, it's as if a rich and mysterious treasure trove has been opened up.
Endless symbols and codes flooded into Xiao Yao's mind like a jumbled mess. For a moment, Xiao Yao felt a severe headache, but all of this was like a dream, his body still in a state of deep sleep.
Xiao Yao's consciousness space slowly calmed down after a long time. This "Five Elements Cultivation Record" and "Law Heavenly Treasure Mirror" are indeed the strange books of the immortal family, with infinite mystery that must be slowly experienced and felt.
As he focused again, controlling his consciousness to slowly and leisurely approach the information that was surging in like a tidal wave, just like a child playing with water who hesitantly gets their feet wet in the shallow tide pools.
Xiao Yao first gained insight into a segment called "Wu Xing Lian Zhen Jue" (Five Elements Cultivation Secret), which is the general outline of Wu Xing Lian Zhen Lu. After silently reciting the incantation, a fine stream of energy automatically flowed through his body and circulated through the acupoints.
Xiao Yao immediately sank into a profound state, forgetting everything. This fine airflow was actually the Xianyuan Qi released by the "Dilu Zhenlu" he had just absorbed.
This powerful essence of heaven and earth, after initially refining and building the foundation of Xiao Yao's mortal body, still left behind a sufficient amount of immortal yuan for Xiao Yao to digest for half a day, and this was just a wisp of fragrance that had been emitted.
The Five Elements Cultivation Manual is like a thick book, and currently, Xiao Yao can only understand the opening sentences, but these few sentences are enough to allow an ordinary person to embark on the path of cultivating truth.
He was currently cultivating the first level of the Lian Zhen Decision, "Mu Shi Jing". "Mu Shi Jing" refers to seeing what others cannot see and hearing what others cannot hear. In short, it means being more perceptive than ordinary people.
The second is "Mind-reading Realm", which is the divine power of knowing others' inner thoughts. Then there are "Spiritual Realm" and "Divine Realm".
And now it should only be considered the entry stage of "Mu Shi Jing" and it's not possible to display those magical powers, but after cultivation, the whole person has a sense of emptiness, with a feeling of being ethereal and otherworldly.
It turned out to be like this...
As a college student, Xiao Yao naturally wouldn't have believed in the gods and immortals of traditional folklore. But now that it was happening to him personally, he couldn't help but believe.
"As the Fah Tian Bao Jian says, this jade bowl contains the true milk of the earth, a treasure formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It can assist in cultivation and also cause the human body to undergo transformation and renewal. Then I'll just have a taste."
Xiao Yao picked up the jade bowl. Gulp, gulp, gulp, he drank down this heavenly treasure as if it were plain water.
The dense nectar slid down his throat, like a lump of ice that instantly dissolved in the vast meridians of his body, and for a moment he couldn't bear the chill to the bone, his whole body trembling.
Fortunately, I had already gained some insight into the "Five Elements Cultivation Technique" just now, and naturally sat down on the white jade couch, following the Five Elements Cultivation Technique to adjust my breath and start circulating the Qi in the meridians to absorb the celestial yuan contained in the earthly milk.
After starting to adjust his breath, he quickly entered a state of selflessness... and the foreign immortal yuan followed the trajectory of the circulation of the heavens in the meridians, slowly operating.
In a daze, I only feel exceptionally clear and refreshing, with the immortal energy flowing happily inside my body. The original cold air that pierced through my heart was instantly like thawed ice when I started to circulate and breathe in accordance with the Heavenly Cycle.
The body temperature kept rising, at first like a warm winter sun, making people feel comfortable.
Then, like the scorching sun on a summer day, it cleansed all impurities from his body, causing every pore to open up completely. Afterwards, it was as if a gentle breeze had passed by, causing him to involuntarily let out a sigh of relief.
The temperature was getting higher and higher, almost unbearable for him. A scorching sensation rose from the dantian, straight up to the heart first, and then rushed into the sea of consciousness.
At this moment, Xiao Yao's feeling was simply indescribably wonderful. This feeling was extremely good, so good that it couldn't be put into words. However, he completely didn't notice that he had already fallen into a huge crisis.
