Each Person's Response
Having determined that the interaction between Qingyun and Zhuoqi was a deadly calamity, Zhang Xuezhou's only task was to wait.
When everything calmed down, Zhang Xuezhou believed it was time for him to leave.
Is it reliable or not?
"Isn't it necessary to study the legacy of Zhuangzi?"
Li Shaojun and Rong Tianding found it difficult to rely on Zhang Xuezhou for long, and Zhang Xuezhou didn't mind giving them a hand.
After pulling the two people onto their shoulders, everyone calmed down considerably.
"What kind of fortuitous opportunity of luck is this!"
Li Shaojun scanned his surroundings, but found that he couldn't see even half a cloth demon in the Law Treasure treasure, making it difficult to find the inheritance of Zhuang Sheng.
"I'm somewhat fortuitous opportunity by this opportunity, but I don't dare to try!"
Rong Tianding sat on Zhang Xuezhou's left shoulder, appearing quite calm and composed.
He was someone who had been captured and bled dry in the Eastern Heavenly Gate Secret Realm. Having had terrible experiences makes one grow, and even when in dire straits, one remains calm enough.
More importantly, Rong Tianding could see that Zhang Xuezhou was calm and did not show the anxiety and unease that Li Shaojun did.
"What fortuitous opportunity?" Zhang Xuezhou asked with interest.
"The four directions and the space above and below are called the universe; the past and the present are called the cosmos; the universe Heaven and Earth things..."
Li Shaojun recited the Daoist scriptures, while Rong Tianding recited the dying words of Shi Wudao.
Rong Tianding looked up at the sky and felt as if he saw the 'Yu' that Shi Jiao had mentioned.
He had never been so close to 'Yu' as he was at this moment.
Rong Tianding couldn't form a concept of 'universe' about the vast world, but amidst the turbid and green air, he felt an indescribable feeling, as if this was the 'universe' brought about by a small world.
Grand concepts often leave us confused, but when scaled down by thousands of times, they become simple and intuitive.
The insights gained in this shrunken world are far less than those gained in the vast universe, but what is suitable and attainable is the best.
"If you are fortuitous opportunity to have this opportunity, how will you try it?" Li Shaojun asked.
"Jump!"
Rong Tianding pointed downwards, which immediately earned him a disdainful 'humph' from Li Shaojun.
"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you," Li Shaojun said.
"Jumping down isn't difficult!"
Zhang Xuezhou pointed downwards, his body plummeting rapidly, causing Li Shaojun to scream repeatedly, while Rong Tianding stared wide-eyed.
In mid-air, one is surrounded by azure air above and turbid air below. Only by stepping on the ground below can one be completely immersed in the turbid air, while only by ascending into the air can one be completely immersed in the azure air.
This is something Rong Tianding couldn't do, but it's a condition Zhang Xuezhou could achieve.
"The yin and yang energies combine to form a wisp of soul energy, which in turn becomes a physical body, thus creating an embryo. The embryo grows into an infant, is born as an independent life, experiences various hardships, and then dies, just like the changing seasons!"
Amidst the pervasive dust and smog, Rong Tianding's usually composed face now held a hint of infatuation.
He murmured to himself, as if he had witnessed the birth of life, and as if he had witnessed the death of life.
What the hell are you talking about?
After Li Shaojun's screams subsided, he realized he was still alive and had adapted to his increasing weight. He couldn't help but listen to what Rong Tianding had to say.
"The two energies of Yin and Yang are the beginning of life. Great sorrow and great joy correspond to happiness, anger, sorrow, and pleasure. The union of Yin and Yang is not the end, but a new beginning!"
Zhang Xuezhou listened quietly as well, but unlike Li Shaojun, he did not lose control of his emotions or become unable to think clearly.
Even because Rong Tianding was sitting on his shoulders, Zhang Xuezhou was also affected.
This is somewhat similar to the Unity of Celestial Person and Heaven by Dong Zhongshu and others, while Zhang Xuezhou, by getting close, could also Jieyin towards it.
Rong Tianding's expertise in corpse-making brought him a profound understanding of life and death, while Zhang Xuezhou's influence extended to the revival of the Yin-Yang School after their combination.
He felt as if his body had gained a bit more vitality and energy than when he Realm Entry, no longer the repetitive and mechanical process of refining Qi and polishing acupoints.
"What do you mean by 'beginning' and 'end'? You guys didn't actually get any benefits from it, did you?"
Li Shaojun could look down on Rong Tianding, after all, the other party's cultivation had not reached the Divine Ability Realm, and his crazy behavior would have limited benefits even if it did. But Li Shaojun could not ignore Zhang Xuezhou.
Upon seeing Zhang Xuezhou, who also expressed similar sentiments, Li Shaojun felt a moment of panic.
Li Shaojun could accept everyone suffering together, but he couldn't accept others suffering while he was left to suffer in vain and benefit from it.
"This doesn't make sense. How did you all suddenly become enlightened? How am I supposed to become enlightened?"
In the same place, under the same circumstances, Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding both seemed to have gained something, and Li Shaojun couldn't help but widen his eyes, thinking of getting some benefits as well.
But all he could see were countless dust particles swirling around him; at this height, the aura was no longer visible, and everything above, below, and to the left and right was murky.
"Who can figure this out? This is forcing someone to do something difficult... Wait a minute!"
Li Shaojun felt that this environment was not a place where people could settle down and cultivate normally, but he eventually realized it too late.
Despite being in such a dusty environment, he was able to breathe freely.
Aside from a slight choking sensation at first, Li Shaojun felt no discomfort whatsoever, as if he had already adapted to the dusty environment.
"Heaven and earth possess both primordial and primordial energy. Could this Law Treasure cloth not be a celestial realm, but rather a collection of primordial and primordial energy, thus forming the evolution from the beginning of heaven and earth?"
Li Shaojun identifies the information back and forth.
He didn't grasp the concept, but he recognized the situation.
"Go! Go! Go! Let's all enter the azure energy!"
Considering the possible scenarios, Li Shaojun couldn't help but urge them loudly.
"If there is the primordial chaos here, as long as we come into contact with the primordial energy and the yellow energy, our bodies will undergo the chaotic tempering derived from the primordial chaos. From then on, our bodies can be large or small, and cultivating the art of transformation will be as easy as turning one's hand," Li Shaojun exclaimed.
Where did we get the art of transformation for our cultivation?
Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Rong Tianding, and seeing Rong Tianding nod at him, he pointed his finger upwards, and the person was already rising continuously in the turbid air.
"There are many transformation techniques that can turn people into cats and dogs," Li Shaojun said. "The imperial court certainly has them!"
"Those techniques won't work," Zhang Xuezhou said, shaking his head.
"It's not that they can't, it's that their cultivation is incomplete, which is why their transformations are so chaotic!" Li Shaojun exclaimed. "Their bodies can't move freely, so their transformations can't be precise. We're not even talking about learning the Great Han Dynasty's extra Transformation Technique; even if our aging technique had that ability, we could transform into whatever we want, even our bodies could be transformed precisely, not just limited to a face!"
"That sounds good!"
"That's quite good!"
Li Shaojun didn't grasp the meaning, but he understood the situation. His face flushed with excitement, feeling that this was the correct way to unlock the treasure.
"You definitely don't know this. As long as you follow me, I promise you won't suffer any losses!"
A wisp of green air entered through his nostrils, and Li Shaojun felt a lightness in his body, as if he were floating away again.
Compared to the terror he felt when he encountered similar situations before, he was now calm and even had the energy to boast a few words.
But Li Shaojun's composure did not last long.
Compared to the long time that the turbid air takes to sink, their time in the green air is very short.
As Li Shaojun felt his body float upwards, he saw the familiar room.
Only then did the Law Treasure cloth that Zhang Xuezhou was holding and swinging fall down.
