Overview

Yuan Power is the energy cultivated and wielded by practitioners. It can be gathered from the environment, refined within the body, stored in a Yuan Power Seed or core, and channeled through martial arts, weapons, and movement techniques. Its quality and properties are shaped by absorbed Yin Sha Power, Yang Gang Qi, and other specialized energies. 3 12 14

Cultivation Properties

Yin Sha Power

Yin Sha Power is a cold, destructive energy divided into nine grades alongside Yang Gang Qi; higher-grade absorption produces a stronger future Yuan Dan. 3

• Long Jiuyyao absorbs extreme Blood Yin Sha Qi while cultivating at the Earth Origin Realm. 3 7
• Its fusion turns his originally colorless Yuan Power deep red, later showing an invisible pitch-black quality. 3
• It can be gathered onto the body or techniques, but its coldness can crack flesh without the protection of Primordial Dragon Bone. 4
• Blood Yin Sha Qi can resist the scorching aura of Golden Sun Power. 14

Yang Gang Qi and Golden Sun Power

Yang Gang Qi is the scorching counterpart to Yin Sha Power and is likewise graded from first to ninth rank. 3

• Golden Sun Power is an extreme Yang Gang energy generated by Dragon Severing Mountain’s Flame Dragon Platform. 14
• It circulates through the user’s meridians, bones, flesh, and Yuan Power Seed during refinement. 14
• Long Jiuyyao’s Yuan Power Seed becomes evenly black and white after integrating Golden Sun Power with his existing Yin-based power. 14
