Totem Secret Method
"Oh? You also know about Innate Yin Meridian?" Cang Yan stroked his chin. "Innate Yin Meridian correspond to innate Yang meridians; only Pure Yin Body corresponds to Pure Yang Body."
"Is that so?" Yi Yun thought with a sigh of regret. Cang Yan had said that the senior with the Pure Yang Body had mastered the Tai'a Sacred Law in twenty days and had become a sage.
Yi Yun had thought that if Lin Xin Tong's Innate Yin Meridian corresponded to her Pure Yang Body, then Lin Xin Tong might be able to cultivate into a sage. Now it seems that he had indeed thought too simply.
Yi Yun asked, "What is Pure Yin Body? What is Innate Yin Meridian?"
Jian Ge picked up the conversation, stroked his beard, and said leisurely, "Those Innate Yin Meridian must have Pure Yin Body, but those with Pure Yin Body are not necessarily Innate Yin Meridian."
"The Pure Yin Body can only appear in women. Their bodies can perfectly blend with the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and they are often cultivation prodigies. The Pure Yin Body also has different grades; the purer the physique, the higher the cultivation talent."
"However, when the Pure Yin Body reaches its peak, it becomes Innate Yin Meridian. As the saying goes, things reach their extreme and then reverse. People with Innate Yin Meridian will face various limitations in their cultivation. As you said, such women will not live past four hundred years. After reaching a certain level of cultivation, they will be unable to advance any further!"
"Women with this Pure Yin Body are extremely rare in the world. Some say that they are actually too talented, which makes the heavens jealous, so their lives are short, and their path of cultivation is also cut off by the Heavenly Dao!"
Does Heaven sever the path of cultivation?
Yi Yun was taken aback. Just from this one sentence, he could tell how difficult it would be to reconnect with his Innate Yin Meridian.
"Does the senior know of any way to restore this Fatal Meridian?"
Upon hearing Yi Yun's question, Jian Ge shook his head. "Difficult! Extremely difficult! This is almost defying the heavens, a cultivation path severed by the Heavenly Dao. It's too difficult for human beings to restore it. However, according to legend, once such Fatal Meridian is restored, the woman will become a cultivation prodigy, a once-in-millennia talent, and will soar to the heavens, becoming an empress!"
"And it seems that in ancient times, there was a legendary empress who was Innate Yin Meridian. However, she somehow managed to restore her Fatal Meridian."
Speaking of the ancient Great Emperor, Jian Ge sighed, "The Tai'a Divine Kingdom has been established for so many years, yet no one has ever become Great Emperor."
"Ancient Empress?"
Yi Yun's heart stirred. If an ancestor could ultimately defy fate, then this proved that this path wasn't an absolute dead end. He possessed the Purple Crystal, making him unique; surely he could also find a way...
As Yi Yun was pondering this, he inadvertently noticed that Cang Yan's eyes were darting around mischievously, staring at him intently as if trying to discern something.
"Uh... what are you looking at, senior?" Yi Yun awkwardly touched his face.
"Young man, you've inquired so thoroughly. Do you perhaps know a woman Innate Yin Meridian?"
Yi Yun, unsure how to respond.
"Hehe..." Cang Yan suddenly revealed a lewd smile, lowering his voice as he said, "Women with Pure Yin Body are all peerless beauties, rare gems in the world, and the ultimate Pure Yin Body — those Innate Yin Meridian —is even more so... Such women have a constitution as pure as freshly melted snow from an iceberg..."
At this point, Cang Yan Jian Ge coughed, seemingly trying to stop Cang Yan from continuing, but Cang Yan ignored him and continued in a mysterious tone, "Boy, have you heard of Yin and Yang complementarity? Since ancient times, the purpose of Dual Cultivation between men and women has been to complement Yin and Yang, absorbing Yin to supplement Yang, and absorbing Yang to supplement Yin. The greater the difference in constitution between men and women, the more obvious the nourishing effect. Women with Pure Yin Body are excellent partners for Dual Cultivation, especially for men with Pure Yang Body. Moreover, this kind of thing is also very beneficial to the woman..."
"Cough cough cough!"
Jian Ge coughed forcefully, utterly speechless. How old was Yi Yun? A mere thirteen-year-old child! And this old geezer was saying such things to Yi Yun!
But Cang Yan got more and more excited as Jian Ge, completely ignoring Jian Ge. "I'm telling you, kid, you have such talent in cultivating the <Tai'a Sacred Law>, you'll definitely have an excess of yang energy in your body in the future. Although you're not Pure Yang Body... if you cultivate the <Tai'a Sacred Law> to the ninth level, you'll definitely be much stronger than an ordinary Pure Yang Body... but extreme pure yang isn't necessarily good. You still need a trace of Pure Yin Energy to enlighten you so that you can reach the highest realm."
The old man chuckled, giving him a knowing look. Yi Yun's mouth hung open, unsure whether to nod or shake his head.
"Old man, what nonsense are you spouting!" Jian Ge said irritably.
"Old man Sword, I'm not talking nonsense. Everything I said makes sense. Tell me, which of my words is nonsense?"
Cang Yan asked in a serious tone, leaving Jian Ge speechless.
He had to admit that although Cang Yan's words didn't sound kind at all, they were all true.
"Besides," Cang Yan patted Yi Yun's shoulder, turned Yi Yun's body around so that his back was to Jian Ge, and whispered, "Actually, I suspect that this kind of Yin-Yang complementary Dual Cultivation might be able to help women Innate Yin Meridian to restore their Fatal Meridian."
"Huh? Is that so?" Yi Yun's heart skipped a beat. Was it really true?
"Hehe, I'm just guessing! But who can say for sure it's impossible? Yin and Yang complement each other; that's an eternal truth. I can't guarantee whether it can reconnect Fatal Meridian, but it will definitely bring great benefits, at least extending a woman's lifespan. Speaking of which, do you even know any women Innate Yin Meridian?"
The old man was very concerned about this. If Yi Yun could obtain a trace of Pure Yin Energy when he reached the peak of pure Yang, it would definitely be an opportunity for him.
Yi Yun chuckled dryly, neither confirming nor denying.
If he were to admit it and discuss Lin Xin Tong with this lewd old man, Yi Yun would feel something was off; it felt like a lewd man fantasizing about a goddess behind his back.
However, regardless of the circumstances, Cang Yan still provided Yi Yun with a method to restore Lin Xin Tong's severed Fatal Meridian.
Even setting aside the matter of Dual Cultivation, simply nourishing Lin Xin Tong's body with rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures containing Pure Yang Energy should be of great benefit to Lin Xin Tong. Yi Yun with the Purple Crystal, finding a supreme treasure of pure Yang shouldn't be difficult for Yi Yun.
"Um... senior, I'd like to ask about the Totem Secret Method. I'm planning to go to the Divine Wilderness to hunt wild beasts in a few days, and I'd like to try condensing Dharma Aspect Totem!"
Yi Yun changed the subject, explaining that the condensation of the Dharma Aspect Totem was not something that could be done out of thin air, but rather required a secret method!
Totem Secret Method, like cultivation methods, are also a very important set of techniques for martial artists.
"Oh? You want to try to condense the Pre-Origin Foundation Dharma Aspect?"
The old man's eyes lit up. Anyone who could condense Pre-Origin Foundation Dharma Aspect was extremely capable, and such a person was one in ten thousand, even in a place like Tai'a Divine City, where the pride of heaven gathered!
This requires not only comprehension but also talent; different martial artists have varying degrees of affinity for the Savage Power.
Some people, despite their exceptional talent, are simply not good at absorbing the Savage Power wild beasts. Such people, let alone condensing Pre-Origin Foundation Dharma Aspect, will find it extremely difficult to cultivate Pre-Origin Foundation Dharma Aspect even after condensing a primordial foundation.
"Give it a try..." Yi Yun chuckled sheepishly. "If it really doesn't work, I'll just wait until I break through to the Origin Foundation Realm."
"You brat! You've mastered the <Tai'a Sacred Law> and comprehended the Thirty-two Sword Dao Characters. Now you want to try your hand at the Pre-Origin Foundation Dharma Aspect? All the benefits will be yours." Cang Yan said with a laugh and a scolding tone, "Don't have too high hopes. It's okay if you can't condense it. There are too few people like that. What you've achieved so far is already remarkable."
Cang Yan spoke, he tossed a jade slip to Yi Yun.
"The Totem Secret Method are all here. You can choose. Of course, these things have a price; good Totem Secret Method aren't cheap!"
Tai'a Divine City has its own rules, and resource allocation is strictly carried out in accordance with these rules.
Yi Yun happily accepted the jade slip.
The jade slip begins by introducing the grades of the Dharma Aspect Totem.
These Dharma Aspect Totem and totems are also incredibly diverse and numerous!
Different martial artists, based on their own characteristics and the techniques they practice, will create different forms of Dharma Aspect Totem.
For example, the Dharma Aspect Totem that Chu Xiaoran condensed was in the form of a wild beast.
Some people have even created Dharma Aspect Totem in various forms, including plants, weapons, the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers.
The more powerful Dharma Aspect Totem, the more difficult it is to condense. Some Dharma Aspect Totem, when condensed, are so powerful that they even give rise to extraordinary celestial phenomena!
Of course, reaching this point is extremely difficult.
