"This sermon will focus on alchemy."
Immortal Lord Yunmiao didn't say much, but after scanning the room, he began to speak.
Its sound is peaceful and soothing, like a clear spring flowing. Each syllable seems to contain profound truths, every word a gem, thought-provoking, pointing directly to the most fundamental source of Dao of Alchemy.
From the inherent properties of spirit medicine, to the roles of principal, assistant, and adjuvant herbs, to the evolution of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements within the Pill Furnace.
Starting with the essentials of fire control and the timing of elixir condensation, the discussion extends to the compatibility of the Principle of heaven and earth's energy with alchemy, as well as the possibilities of various alchemy techniques... progressing from the superficial to the profound, from the surface to the core, sometimes providing a macroscopic explanation, and sometimes offering a microscopic analysis.
Han Xuanji focused her mind and quickly cleared her mind of distractions, listening attentively to the lecture.
Many of the profound insights spoken by Immortal Lord Yunmiao perfectly corroborated the knowledge he had just acquired. The knowledge he had been instilled with instantly merged and became integrated. Combined with his " Celestial Person Comprehension," countless sparks of inspiration burst forth in his sea of consciousness, and his understanding of Dao of Alchemy deepened at an astonishing speed.
For a time, strange phenomena appeared all over the temple.
"The art of alchemy is vast and profound, not limited to the techniques of metal, stone, furnaces, and fire. Generally speaking, it can be divided into internal alchemy and external alchemy. However, both are within the grand Dao, leading to the same destination through different paths."
"Those who refine external elixirs use heaven and earth as a great furnace, take all things as their essence, gather the properties of spirit medicine, harmonize dragons and tigers, and control water and fire."
Fire refining uses true fire to quench impurities and reveal its essence; water refining uses true water to moisten its dryness and harmonize its yin and yang; qi refining uses true breath to nourish its spiritual energy and solidify its true nature. This is to cultivate one's inner realm by borrowing external objects, and to use the power of the elixir to prove one's own path.
"However, the true essence of Dao of Alchemy is far more than this."
The Immortal Lord's voice suddenly rose in pitch, carrying a powerful and awe-inspiring rhythm of the Great Dao:
"The profound meaning of Dao of Alchemy lies in taking oneself as Imperishable Pill Cauldron, essence, energy, and spirit as the supreme elixir, the Principle of heaven and earth as firewood, and the passage of time as the furnace fire!"
"To forge the essence of the Tianxing and use it for one's own benefit, to extract the vital energy of mountains and rivers to nourish oneself! To refine away the impurities of acquired nature, and to return to the pure Yang of one's innate nature! This is to seize the creation of heaven and earth, and to penetrate the Xuanji of the sun and moon!"
"Nothing in the world can be used as medicine."
A karmic connection can be used as medicine to enlighten the mind; a wisp of emotion can be used as medicine to refine the nature; a calamity can be used as medicine to temper the will; the calamity energy permeating the world, the fragments of Principle floating in the Chaos... all can be incorporated into my ' Pill Cauldron,' refined with supreme inner fire, discarding the impurities and retaining the essence, transforming them into resources for my advancement on the path!
Therefore, the Dao of Alchemy is not a minor, auxiliary path, but rather a supreme and Tongtian -Myriad Phenomena path!
The ultimate goal is not an external elixir of immortality, but to refine oneself into a flawless, imperishable, and indestructible Great Dao Golden Core!
This is the supreme method of revealing the true essence in the smallest details and enacting the primordial chaos within a small space!
Han Xuanji was suddenly filled with countless insights.
Their understanding of Dao of Alchemy has also deepened.
The Dao of Alchemy is not a minor path; it is also a great path that encompasses Myriad Phenomena.
His Chaos True Spirit Physique —doesn't that make him a top-grade furnace/cauldron?
In an instant, golden lotuses sprang up within the temple grounds, sweet rain fell from the sky, and Dao patterns appeared and disappeared.
The disciples were completely absorbed, many showing expressions of sudden enlightenment, their auras surging, clearly indicating they had entered a deep state of enlightenment.
Even the direct disciples and elders in the front row listened intently, seemingly deep in thought.
Han Xuanji was naturally completely immersed in the sermon.
A surge of energy involuntarily arose around him, and an invisible aura surged through his body, transforming his entire being into a furnace that refined the essence of all things.
Unbeknownst to him, he broke through to the Earth Immortal Perfection, and then stepped into the Heavenly Immortal realm in one fell swoop.
If it's a normal breakthrough, it will inevitably cause countless strange phenomena.
However, Han Xuanji possessed a system concealment function, which completely obscured this breakthrough phenomenon.
At the same time, a scene suddenly appeared at the front of the temple: a full moon in the sky and a golden lotus in the void, attracting the attention of many people.
"A breakthrough has been achieved..."
"This prodigy of the Jiang Household is indeed extraordinary. After only ten years in the sect, he has risen from the Earth Immortal Eighth Layer to the Heavenly Immortal realm."
Several hours later, the Immortal Lord's sermon came to an end, but the Daoist aura within the temple remained so strong that it was impossible to disperse.
Just then, Ji Tianxing, who was in the front row, took a deep breath, stood up, and respectfully bowed to the throne, his voice clear and melodious:
"Disciple Ji Tianxing is dull-witted and still has doubts about the phrase 'the five elements give rise to life, and the elixir naturally arises.' I humbly request the Immortal Lord to enlighten me!"
In an instant, all eyes were on him.
Immortal Lord Yunmiao's gaze fell upon him, calm and unwavering. "Speak."
Ji Tianxing was clearly well-prepared, and he explained his questions in detail. The questions involved the subtle balance and natural evolution of the five elements' spiritual power at the moment of pill formation, which was extremely profound and difficult for Alchemist of the third level or above to grasp.
After a moment's thought, the Immortal Lord offered his answer. His words were concise yet to the point, clearing away the clouds and revealing the profound principles of Dao of Alchemy in a few simple words. Not only did Ji Tianxing find the truth enlightening and express his gratitude repeatedly, but all the Alchemist present also felt they had benefited greatly.
However, after giving his instructions, Ji Tianxing did not sit down immediately. A resolute and confident glint flashed in his eyes as he bowed again and said loudly:
" The Immortal Lord's wondrous methods have enlightened this disciple!"
I humbly request the Immortal Lord's permission to refine the Five Elements Return to Origin Pill to Origin Pill' here, firstly to verify my learning, and secondly to request the Immortal Lord and fellow disciples to offer their corrections!
These words shocked the entire audience!
Immortal Lord Yunmiao immediately began refining pills after giving his sermon, which was undoubtedly a display of great confidence and the greatest possible demonstration of his Dao of Alchemy.
After all, the Five Elements Return to Origin Pill is one of the most difficult pills to refine among the three-stage immortal pills, and even most Fourth-Transformation Alchemist are not 100% confident in its ability to refine it.
Everyone's gaze turned fervent as they awaited the Immortal Lord's response.
The indistinct face of Immortal Lord Yunmiao seemed to move slightly, and his faint voice echoed throughout the Daoist hall:
"Can."
Ji Tianxing's face immediately lit up with a dazzling light. He took a deep breath and waved his hand. An ancient and heavy immortal cauldron, engraved with the five elemental beasts, crashed to the ground, emitting a powerful spiritual pressure.
The next moment, dozens of spiritual materials shimmering with various colored lights flew out and surrounded him, while powerful immortal energy and divine sense fluctuations began to condense.
The entire Cloudmist Dao Field instantly transformed into his personal stage!
