Innate Four Symbols Great Array

He put adjusting his condition on hold for the time being. This unexpected discovery might signify a tremendous opportunity.

Throughout the Primordial Wilderness, after countless yuanhui, every place protected by an Innate Restriction was invariably a treasured site nurtured by the Great Dao. There would certainly be a treasure inside—either an Innate Spiritual Root or an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Even the legacies left behind by Xiantian God-Demons contained the Great Dao Law. None were ordinary; encountering one was a tremendous opportunity.

He immediately rose. After a brief period of adjusting his breath, the mana within his body was already circulating smoothly, and azure light filled him. Though he had not fully recovered to his peak condition, it was enough to support him.

At this moment, in order to investigate the restriction as quickly as possible, he no longer relied solely on his physical body to withstand the pressure. Instead, he circulated his mana to protect himself, causing the azure light covering his body to condense into armor-like solidity.

Under the azure light, the pressure around him immediately lessened considerably. His movements were still constrained, but had become much more fluid. Although he was not as swift as he had been at the foot of the mountain, where he could Shrink Ground to Inches and move like lightning, he was already extremely fast on the slopes of Buzhou Mountain.

His footsteps landed on the smooth stone platform, producing dull, rhythmic sounds. Every step fell precisely where the pressure was relatively weaker, cleverly borrowing force and reducing his expenditure.

Relying on that faint trace of perception, he searched carefully among the steep, perilous mountain walls blanketed in pressure, like the most seasoned hunter following the guidance of an invisible thread.

His gaze was as sharp as lightning, sweeping across every inch of rock and overlooking no abnormality.

His divine sense spread out as meticulously as mercury spilling across the ground. It struggled to pierce the natural isolation that Buzhou Mountain's stone exerted on divine perception, scanning every inch of suspicious rock texture and capturing that faint, almost imperceptible rhythm.

The rocks of Buzhou Mountain had endured the baptism of Great God Pangu's pressure for countless yuanhui. They had long since become harder than divine iron, impervious to the myriad arts, and were even more capable of greatly isolating and weakening divine sense. Searching through them consumed an enormous amount of mental energy.

His fingertips occasionally brushed across the cold, hard rock wall, carrying the immemorial chill. He felt the mottled traces of time upon it, as well as that eternal, awe-inspiring aura of chaos being split apart and creation beginning.

Hard work paid off. After a long while, he stopped before a blue-black mountain wall that seemed ordinary, covered in ancient moss and indistinguishable from the surrounding rock walls.

The faint fluctuation was clearest here—steady, like the beating of a heart, regular and powerful.

He extended a finger. At its tip, a wisp of pure Essence of Yi Wood gathered, glowing with vibrant azure light and brimming with vitality. Carrying a probing intent, it gently touched the mountain wall.

"Buzz..."

Where his fingertip landed, the surface of the mountain wall did not feel like an indestructible solid. Instead, it softened slightly, and a circle of extremely fine spatial ripples, nearly imperceptible to the naked eye, immediately spread outward. It was like a pebble dropped into a deep ancient well, sending waves across the water before they swiftly vanished and the mountain wall returned to normal.

Without careful investigation, there would have been no way to discover it. Lord Wanshouyuan understood at once: behind the mountain wall was definitely not solid rock, but another world entirely. It was merely concealed by an Innate Restriction formed by an extremely sophisticated natural formation that had perfectly fused with the surrounding environment.

After the ripples passed, the mountain wall appeared unchanged, but the aura that had leaked out in that instant became slightly clearer. It was a strange rhythm formed from the mixed fluctuations of four Innate Origins: the heaviness and solidity of earth, the enduring nourishment of flowing water, the formless swiftness of Wind Qi, and the violent destructive force of flames. It was extraordinarily profound.

"Just as I thought—it's here!" Lord Wanshouyuan's spirits lifted, and delight flashed through his eyes.

He did not rush to force it open. He knew that such Innate Restrictions often contained natural Killing Intent, and that forcibly striking them would inevitably invite a backlash.

He sat down cross-legged once more, right where he was. Holding his breath and focusing his mind, he slowly extended his divine sense from his sea of consciousness. It was like countless fine yet resilient tendrils reaching out. Carefully, they touched the invisible restriction, merged into it, and began patiently and meticulously investigating the inner structure and operational mysteries of this Innate formation.

The moment his divine sense successfully entered the outer layer of the restriction, he seemed to instantly break away from Buzhou Mountain and fall into a boundless, ever-changing world of laws!

Before his eyes were no longer blue-black rocks, but endless forces of the four Innate Origins—earth, water, wind, and fire—surging, flowing, colliding, generating, and annihilating!

They mutually generated and restrained one another in an Endless Circulation, forming a perfect and stable system of balance that created its own world. The aura of the Great Dao was exuberant, and its profundity was astonishing—far beyond any formation arranged by a postnatal mighty cultivator using a spiritual treasure or formation flags.

The earth-yellow Earth Qi was heavy and solid, bearing all things;

The deep-blue water essence flowed endlessly, nourishing all things;

The pale-green wind spirit was formless and traceless, circulating with swift speed;

The crimson fire essence leaped and rose, destroying and recreating...

The four most fundamental forces intertwined and evolved into countless intricate, profound Great Dao Runes containing ultimate truths. They were born and extinguished in endless succession, constantly acting out the boundless mysteries of Heaven and Earth's beginning, and Yin and Yang's generation.

This was unmistakably an extremely rare and incomparably powerful Xiantian Four Symbols Great Array!

This array relied on the supreme Earth Veins of Buzhou Mountain and the legacy of Great God Pangu to form itself. Its power was boundless. Without understanding the principles of its operation or comprehending its changes in law,

even a Da Luo Golden Immortal who came here and relied on a spiritual treasure to forcibly break the array would inevitably suffer a simultaneous backlash from Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind. At best, they would be severely wounded and forced to retreat; at worst, they would suffer Death and Dao Extinction. It was incomparably dangerous.

Lord Wanshouyuan held his breath and concentrated, gathering all distracting thoughts as his mind became completely immersed in comprehending and analyzing the Xiantian Four Symbols Great Array.

Although he primarily cultivated the Wood Scripture and comprehended the Dao of Creation and vitality, he was the transformed form of the Innate Spiritual Root Ginseng Fruit Tree. His true body was the Wutu Essence, so he possessed an extremely deep understanding of the laws of Heaven and Earth—especially the workings of Earth Veins—and had a natural affinity with them.

At this moment, as his divine sense sank into the evolution of the Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire Origins, he drew connections from one thing to another. Many difficult barriers in his past cultivation suddenly became clear.

His understanding of Five Elements Generation and Overcoming, as well as creation and destruction, rose to another level.

He forgot the passage of time and forgot where he was, devoting his entire body and mind to comprehending the Heaven and Earth Ultimate Truth.

The azure light around him circulated of its own accord, and his aura gradually began to resonate with the rhythm of the external array. At times, it was as heavy as the earth; at times, as gentle as flowing water; at times, as swift as Wind Qi; and at times, as scorching as flame, faintly aligning with the fluctuations of the formation.

In the Primordial Wilderness, years could not be counted. On the slopes of Buzhou Mountain, under the influence of Pangu Pressure, the passage of time was even more difficult to perceive.

Perhaps only the snap of a finger had passed. Perhaps several years had already gone by in the outside world.

The light of divine sense in Lord Wanshouyuan's mud pill palace flickered violently. His deductions and calculations had reached their utmost limit.

At last, his tightly closed eyes suddenly opened. Deep within them, four Innate phenomena of earth, water, wind, and fire seemed to flash and vanish. The aura around him became even more harmonious and profound, more perfectly aligned with Heaven and Earth. Clearly, his understanding of the laws of Heaven and Earth had advanced another level.

He had completely comprehended the operating mysteries of this Xiantian Four Symbols Great Array. He had seen through its core sequence of laws, as well as the four crucial nodes that maintained its balance and connected it to the Earth Veins of Buzhou Mountain.

He rose to his feet with a calm expression. Without using any powerful divine ability, he merely joined his index and middle fingers like a sword. Wisps of spiritual light naturally flowed from his fingertips, carrying an aura that resonated with the Origin of the Four Symbols Law.

The spiritual light appeared in four colors—earth-yellow, deep-blue, pale-green, and crimson. In succession, they gently tapped several seemingly ordinary spots on the mountain wall that were actually the formation's pivotal nodes.
