Empress Heart Sutra
Gently taking down a few jade slips, Lin Xin Tong immersed her Spiritual Sense into them. These jade slips were not cultivation Secret Manual, but rather the notes and insights on cultivation written by Ancient Empress.
The Ancient Empress described her cultivation journey in the first half of her life, including her insights into the laws when breaking through realms, in a jade slip.
Although many things can only be understood intuitively and cannot be explained in words, the experience of our predecessors is still there, which can save people from taking many detours. In Lin Xin Tong Ancient Empress are both born with blocked Fatal Meridian, and the two have similar problems in their cultivation in many ways.
These things are of great value to Lin Xin Tong.
Lin Xin Tong flipped through more than a dozen jade slips, her chest heaving slightly, her heart filled with turmoil.
The handwriting on the jade slip was elegant yet powerful, clearly the work of the Empress. Compared to Lord Qingyang's handwriting, the Ancient Empress's handwriting was much neater, and Lin Xin Tong could read it quickly.
Among the many jade slips that Lin Xin Tong read, a cultivation technique was mentioned— the Empress Heart Sutra!
This set of techniques accompanied the Ancient Empress throughout her life.
"The Empress Heart Sutra..."
Lin Xin Tong, and suddenly her heart stirred. She looked at a box placed in the corner of the bookshelf. The box was made of wood and looked similar to a dressing case. Lin Xin Tong gently opened it.
Inside the wooden box was a blue and white ancient book. The paper of the ancient book was made of the same material as the handwritten note left by Lord Qingyang. Although it was as thin as a cicada's wing, it had a metallic texture.
Opening the ancient book, the first page is a handscroll inscription explaining the book's origin.
When the primordial universe Heaven and Earth Splitting, the Twelve Emperor Heavens were born. Among them were great ancient beings who comprehended the Heaven and Earth Laws and gradually established the martial arts tradition.
The ultimate martial arts lineage, revered as divine scriptures by the warriors of the Twelve Emperor Heavens, represents the supreme methods closest to the Dao of Heaven.
Perhaps it is preordained, or perhaps the Heaven and Earth Laws allow only one divine scripture that is closest to the Dao of Heaven. Ultimately, through the long river of history, each of the Twelve Emperor Heavens has only one divine scripture.
Among them, the divine scripture of Yang God Emperor Heaven is -- the <Yang God Scripture>!
Lord Qingyang came from Yang God Emperor Heaven. He had studied the first chapter of the Yang God Scripture, and his martial arts also came from the Yang God Scripture.
The Yang God Scripture is the supreme divine scripture for cultivating the pure Yang law. Even Lord Qingyang's understanding of the Yang God Scripture is extremely limited. The Ancient Empress was Innate Yin Meridian, and the cultivation method she practiced was also a pure Yin method.
No matter how good the Yang God Scripture is, she cannot cultivate it.
However, perhaps the Ancient Empress was not destined to die, for Lord Qingyang was born with great fortune. During his time in the Twelve Emperor Heavens, in addition to cultivating the Yang God Scripture, he also obtained a fragment of the Nine Nether Sacred Canon during a secret realm adventure.
The Nine Nether Sacred Canon is precisely the supreme method for cultivating the pure Yin law.
In the past, although Lord Qingyang obtained the <Nine Nether Sacred Canon>, he was unable to cultivate it because he had already practiced the Pure Yang Technique, and his internal energy was extremely strong and Yang.
Until he arrived in the Tianyuan Realm and encountered the Ancient Empress.
The two fell in love and became acquainted. Lord Qingyang was actually both the Ancient Empress Dao Companion and the master of the Ancient Empress.
The Nine Nether Sacred Canon was passed down by Lord Qingyang to the Ancient Empress.
However, Lord Qingyang probably didn't realize that he had created a true genius.
During his Dual Cultivation with the Ancient Empress, the Ancient Empress used the yang spirit energy that Lord Qingyang had cultivated through the Yang God Scripture (Yang Divine Scripture). Although it failed to restore her innate severed Fatal Meridian, it was slowly healing them, allowing the Ancient Empress to extend her life by a thousand years.
A thousand years later, when the Ancient Empress was 1,200 years old, she sensed that the Life Fire was gradually weakening and that she might reach the end of her life if things continued this way. So she went into seclusion and remained in seclusion for more than ninety years.
She comprehended her own cultivation method from the Yang God Scripture and the Nine Nether Sacred Canon – the Empress Heart Sutra.
This set of "Empress Heart Sutra" cultivates both pure Yin and pure Yang, making it a Secret Manual that combines Yin and Yang.
This is the most suitable place for her to cultivate with Lord Qingyang.
The two cultivated this skill together and finally achieved great success. The Ancient Empress also broke through the shackles of her innate inability to cultivate her Fatal Meridian. From then on, she mastered the skill and traveled freely with Lord Qingyang!
Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong were shocked to see this. The Ancient Empress was actually able to combine supreme techniques of the level of the Yang God Scripture and the Nine Nether Sacred Canon.
Such a prodigy is truly rare in this world. Even among the most outstanding geniuses of the Twelve Emperor Heavens, it's unlikely that anyone possesses such an ability to utilize the inheritance within the Twelve Divine Scriptures for their own use, let alone combine Yin and Yang to create a cultivation technique!
"So this book is the <Empress Heart Sutra>..."
At the Medicine Trial Assembly, Shentu Nantian had such a plan. When his Lineage elders were seeking opportunities in the Empress Secret Realm, they obtained a little bit of the description of the <Empress Heart Sutra> technique. Shentu Nantian thought that he could use Lin Xin Tong to cultivate the <Empress Heart Sutra>. Even if he only cultivated a little bit of it, it would greatly improve his cultivation and make him the ruler of the Tianyuan Realm in the future.
Looking across the entire Tianyuan Realm, only Lin Xin Tong, who was born with an unblemished Fatal Meridian and a Pure Yin Body, could help him complete this task.
Once he has mastered the Empress Heart Sutra, whether Lin Xin Tong lives or dies, or how long she lives, will be none of his concern.
Now, what lies before Lin Xin Tong Yi Yun is the complete version of the <Empress Heart Sutra>!
This set of techniques, which can be described as the ultimate in Yin and Yang, actually far surpasses the level of martial arts inheritance in the Tianyuan Realm!
"Is this... the opportunity for me to reconnect with my naturally Fatal Meridians...?"
Lin Xin Tong's fingers trembled slightly, but she didn't rush to open the "Empress Heart Sutra." Instead, she straightened her clothes and bowed deeply three times in front of the bookshelf.
A martial artist may disrespect heaven and earth, and may disregard worldly etiquette, but he must not disrespect the sages of the past. This is because the martial arts traditions that martial artists cultivate are the result of countless contemplations and even risky experiments by the sages, which they gradually summarized.
After the grand ceremony, Lin Xin Tong respectfully took down the "Empress Heart Sutra" and placed it flat on the desk.
Scholars who read books left by sages perform a series of rituals, such as burning incense and washing their hands, before opening the pages. This is to calm their minds so that they can truly understand the sage's meaning.
The same applies to martial artists. Empress Heart Sutra Lin Xin Tong meditated and regulated her breathing for a full half hour before opening her eyes.
When Lin Xin Tong opened her eyes, her gaze had completely calmed down. Even though what lay before her was the supreme codex concerning her destiny, she opened it slowly with a respectful and composed attitude...
