Its entire body is black and white, with light flowing alternately, like Yin-Yang Fish slowly rotating. Inside, there is a rich mixture of yin and yang energies, which are intertwined and transform into each other, making it mysterious and unpredictable.
" Yin-Yang Precious Jade."
Han Xuanji's heart stirred slightly.
This treasure is the key he needs for his next stage of cultivation.
He has already condensed the Five Elements Dao Principle and successfully stepped into the sixth level of the Eternal Dao Master, and the Yin-Yang Dao Principle are his next target.
The Dao of Yin and Yang are completely different from those of stars and the Five Elements.
The stars are vast and boundless, the five elements interact and restrain each other, and Yin and Yang are the origin of all things and the fundamental Principle governing the operation of heaven and earth.
If he can condense the Yin-Yang Dao Principle, his foundation will be more solid, and his combat power will be greatly enhanced.
When he ascends to the Eternal True Lord, he will be able to condense a supreme Eternal Principle.
"I'll take this time to comprehend the Yin-Yang Dao Principle, which may allow me to exchange them for a Cultivation Method to aid my practice."
Instead of rushing to comprehend the Dao Principles using the Yin-Yang Precious Jade, Han Xuanji used his contribution points to exchange for a Cultivation Method called "Initial Explanation of the Great Dao of Yin and Yang ".
The exchange only requires 10,000 contribution points, so the cost is not high.
Time slips away unnoticed.
News of Han Xuanji's emergence from seclusion spread quickly.
Outside the Purple Soul Grotto-Heaven, visitors came in an endless stream.
Disciples of the Soul Household, cultivators from other forces in Thousand Souls City, and even prodigies from afar all wanted to meet this legendary figure who had ascended the Five Elements Heavenly Stairway.
However, the stone gate of the Purple Soul Grotto-Heaven remained tightly closed.
The guard at the gate repeated the same sentence over and over again:
"Young Master Han is currently in seclusion and cannot receive guests. Please leave."
Some returned disappointed, some cursed and swore, while others Undying waited outside the cave for months.
But Han Xuanji never showed up.
Gradually, fewer people came, and the Purple Soul Grotto-Heaven returned to its former tranquility.
Han Xuanji's name, however, became increasingly well-known in Thousand Souls City and even throughout the entire Nine Mysteries Prefecture.
On the other side.
The Soul Household Mansion is a secluded residence.
Hun Zangfeng sat upright in his chair, holding a cup of tea in his hands, his expression calm.
He was sitting opposite Hun Qianchen, and there was another person standing in front of them.
The man was dressed in a long black robe, with a robust build and a resolute face, but his brows showed signs of weariness and vicissitude.
His aura was profound, clearly indicating that he was a powerful being at the level of Eternal True God.
" Qianchen, this is Heavenly Martial Sect, the sect leader of Wu Tianqiong."
Hun Zangfeng stood up and introduced them.
He also pointed to Hun Qianchen and introduced him:
"This is Hun Qianchen, the young master of the Soul Household. His father was the previous family head, Hun Wanli."
Wu Tianqiong cupped his hands in greeting to the Hun Zangfeng, his voice steady:
"I have long admired the name of Qianchen."
Hun Zangfeng put down his teacup, stood up, and smiled warmly:
"Sect Leader Wu, you're too kind. Please have a seat."
The three took their seats, one as host and one as guest.
Hun Zangfeng: Get straight to the point:
"Sect Leader Wu, Qianchen should have already given you the general idea. We invited you here today to finalize the details."
Wu Tianqiong nodded, his expression solemn:
"Elder Zangfeng, please speak frankly."
Heavenly Martial Sect, located in a vast mountain range outside Thousand Souls City, was originally founded by the Sage Realm expert. At its peak, it had several Sage in charge, making it a powerful force in the region.
However, with the fall of a Sage Realm expert, the sect began to split, and its strength was greatly reduced.
Although Wu Tianqiong inherited the position of sect leader, Heavenly Martial Sect was no longer as powerful as it once was.
Nowadays, many of the sect's resources and strongholds have been seized, and its property has been divided up, leaving it struggling to even cover the daily expenses of its numerous disciples.
Without a large city to support it, Heavenly Martial Sect would eventually fall apart.
This is precisely the fundamental reason why Wu Tianqiong was willing to cooperate with Hun Zangfeng.
" Qianchen needs someone's support if he wants to take the position of family head."
Hun Zangfeng spoke calmly, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.
" Heavenly Martial Sect needs a city as its foundation, Thousand Souls City is the perfect fit. Both sides get what they need, a win-win situation."
Wu Tianqiong was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"I understand Elder Zangfeng's meaning. However... Hun Qianxue's prestige is currently at its peak, and it will probably not be easy to shake his position."
Hun Zangfeng smiled, picked up his teacup, and took a small sip.
"Prestige is a thing that comes quickly and goes quickly."
He put down his teacup and looked directly at Wu Tianqiong:
"Sect Leader Wu only needs to focus on his own duties. When the time is right, someone will take action."
Wu Tianqiong and Hun Zangfeng looked at each other for a moment, and finally nodded:
"Alright, then we'll do as Elder Zangfeng says."
The two sides agreed on some details, and Wu Tianqiong got up to take his leave.
Hun Zangfeng was escorted to the door, his smile still gentle:
"Sect Leader Wu, please take care."
Wu Tianqiong cupped his hands in greeting, then turned and left.
After his figure disappeared, Hun Qianchen asked in a low voice:
"Elder, is this person trustworthy?"
Hun Zangfeng suppressed his smile and said calmly:
"Whether he's trustworthy or not is unimportant; what matters is that he needs our help. A sect leader who's on the verge of collapse has no right to bargain with us."
Hun Qianchen nodded thoughtfully.
Heavenly Martial Sect.
Wu Tianqiong returned to the sect and stood on the cliff in front of the mountain gate. Looking down at the dilapidated buildings and the sparse disciples, a deep sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.
The glory days are long gone; the Heavenly Martial Sect is now merely clinging to life.
"Sect Master, what did the Soul Household say?"
An elder came forward and asked eagerly.
Wu Tianqiong came to his senses and said calmly:
"It's settled. The cooperation is complete. They'll help us take over the Soul Household, and we'll do their bidding."
The elder's face lit up with joy:
"Great! With the support of the Soul Household, our Heavenly Martial Sect finally has hope!"
Wu Tianqiong didn't reply, but simply waved his hand, signaling the elder to step down.
Night had fallen, and the mountain wind howled.
Wu Tianqiong stood alone on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the Starry Sky, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
To cooperate with Hun Zangfeng is tantamount to seeking help from a tiger.
He knew that in the other party's eyes he was nothing more than a pawn, someone who could be discarded at any time after being used.
But he had no other choice.
Heavenly Martial Sect needs a foundation, a city, and sufficient resources to support its disciples.
Otherwise, the sect would collapse from within without any external attack.
Let's take it one step at a time.
Wu Tianqiong muttered to himself, then turned and walked back to the main hall.
Purple Soul Grotto-Heaven.
Inside the cave abode, Han Xuanji was completely unaware of everything happening outside.
He sat cross-legged, with the Yin-Yang Precious Jade floating in front of him.
"An Initial Explanation of the Great Dao of Yin and Yang " is a collection of insights written by an Eternal True God who cultivates the Yin-Yang Dao Principle. He has studied its contents repeatedly and his understanding of the Dao of Yin and Yang has deepened day by day.
Yin and Yang are the way of heaven and earth, the guiding principles of all things, the parents of change, and the origin of life and death.
Yin alone cannot produce anything, nor can Yang alone grow.
Only through the balance of Yin and Yang can the Great Way be achieved.
These principles are simple to explain, but to truly comprehend them and condense them into Eternal Dao Principle as difficult as ascending to heaven.
But this Dao Principles is also the key to his breakthrough to the Eternal True Lord, so he cannot be careless.
Without the Yin-Yang Dao Principle to regulate his mind, Han Xuanji dared not continue cultivating and comprehending other Dao principles, lest the Dao Principles within his body conflict and become disordered.
