The Heavens: A Qing, the Yue Girl at the beginning

You know, although Zhao Qing's vitality resonance of the Spark Sword was blocked before she entered the water, the communication relying on electromagnetic waves was not affected much. Therefore, she had actually transmitted a lot of key information a long time ago and made some plans that might be feasible in advance.

While Zhao Qing was secretly thinking and analyzing the situation, the two "Death Domain Magic Swords" that were as black as ink and had blood veins were also pulled by an invisible aura and floated in front of her. They hovered there, emitting a heart-pounding sharpness and chill.

"Don't think this method is too evil and against the harmony of nature." The tone of the Emperor You was calm, as if he was stating an ancient common sense. "In the heyday of the You Dynasty in the past, many of the old generals under my seat who were about to die and had no hope of success took the initiative to seek this 'destination'."

"To use their broken bodies and decayed bones to forge a legacy that protects the family and provides shelter for future generations is an honor and a relief for them. Compared to turning into dust silently, isn't it a blessing to leave something behind? This Death Domain Magic Sword carries not only power, but also the will of a loyal soul."

In his words, using one's life to refine magic weapons became a glorious destination and a way to recycle resources.

Zhao Qing had a blank expression on his face. After thinking for a while, he replied, "The distinction between good and evil, to me, is just a manifestation of the use of power. If you insist on this, you will fall behind. Since you have shown your sincerity, why not give me some tangible benefits?"

"For example... how can we stay here for a long time without being disturbed by the 'gatekeeper'?"

She paused for a moment and added, "As for the transmission method - if you want to save trouble, forget about it. Divine thoughts are just a sense, crude and simple, and the information is easily distorted and tampered with. What I want is a three-dimensional Dao diagram seal, which can be viewed by all seven senses and enter the heart through the eyes, so that the true taste can be obtained."

"Heh... you are very cautious and demanding, my friend." The Emperor's mind seemed to carry a hint of understanding. "I have observed the flow of your aura and it seems that you have figured out some ways to resist the absorption of the field. Your talent is indeed amazing. Well, since we are cooperating, I will naturally give you convenience."

As soon as the words fell, the void mirror suspended above the black crystal giant, with twisted and fluctuating edges, suddenly shone brightly!

It was no longer a beam of light shooting down, but the entire mirror surface was rippling violently like liquid mercury.

The next moment, a huge, precise, three-dimensional and dazzling "Tao Diagram Seal" was projected directly from the mirror, as if tearing open the space from another dimension, slowly descending, and finally stably hovering in front of Zhao Qing!
This is definitely not a flat rune array! It is composed of billions of tiny particles as small as dust, but each of them shines with different attributes.

Dark blue, fiery gold, grayish white, and dark purple light spots constitute the basic particle flow, which flows, collides, aggregates, and separates at high speed along countless trajectories that are almost impossible to capture with the naked eye but are full of the rhythm of the avenue, forming a three-dimensional geometric structure with layers of nested and rotating shapes.

Some structures revolve slowly like star spirals, some spin like stacked multi-faceted crystals, and countless fine energy lines shuttle between these structures, weaving into a dynamic energy network that covers the entire model.

The colors flow and change in the structure, sometimes as deep as the deep sea, sometimes as dazzling as the scorching sun, and sometimes as hazy as the beginning of chaos, presenting the core secrets of the exercises in a way that is extremely intuitive and contains terrifying amounts of information.

It is not just seeing with the eyes, but it seems to be able to directly "touch" the texture of the law, "listen" to the rhythm of energy operation, "smell" the characteristics of different attributes of vitality, "taste" the tension of the spatial structure, and even "feel" the subtle difference in the flow rate of time in different areas of the model.

——This is exactly what Zhao Qing requires as “the seven consciousnesses observing together”!
The voice of the Emperor You was like the sound of the Great Dao, which rang out synchronously in the depths of Zhao Qing's sea of ​​consciousness, and perfectly matched the demonstration of the three-dimensional Dao diagram in front of him:

"The natal realm of the powerful people at the peak of the eighth realm or even the ninth realm can be regarded as a kind of 'living sea of ​​laws', which is vast and all-encompassing. The laws within it form their own system and flow endlessly..."

"Once the life force, true essence, and even the spiritual power of an ordinary cultivator falls into it, it will be like..."

The model changed instantly, simulating a boundless, calm and deep "water area", and a small ball of light representing the practitioner's own vitality fell into it.

"A mass of 'solute' with completely different properties is thrown into a solvent, where it quickly decomposes, diffuses, and is assimilated and absorbed!"

"The energy dissipated by any conventional means of resistance will eventually be absorbed and assimilated by this sea of ​​laws, becoming nutrients that nourish its master and strengthen its power! The more you struggle, the faster you will sink!"

As soon as the small ball of light in the model touched the "water area", its edges began to blur and disintegrate, turning into strands of energy flows that quickly merged into the sea of ​​laws. The ball of light itself shrank and dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"If you want to avoid being suppressed, decomposed, or swallowed by this 'solution'," the Emperor You explained in a simple and easy-to-understand way, "the most fundamental way is to have a 'solution' of the same level, that is, to reach the realm of immortality yourself, and to construct a law system with completely different 'density' and 'polarity' from the other party, forming a clear separation of liquid layers without interfering with each other."

"If not," the Emperor changed the subject, and the small light ball in the model stopped disintegrating instantly. The erosion of the surrounding "water" was temporarily blocked by an invisible force. "Then we need to settle for the next best thing and try to make this 'solute', in this 'solution'... remain independent as the precipitated 'crystal'!"

"This is the practice method of 'Avoiding the Afterbirth'! Its core purpose is to use special methods to change the microscopic state of your own 'solute' and reduce its 'solubility' in this specific 'solvent'. This involves the change of 'free energy' at the energy level and the control of 'surface energy' to build a stable interface."

The small light balls in the model suddenly shrank and solidified, turning into tiny crystal nuclei, all covered with an extremely complex, constantly changing energy film on the surface. Its structure was extremely precise and contained runes of laws that could resist the erosion of the "solvent".

"…In chemistry, the conditions that can be changed for crystallization include temperature, pressure, concentration, etc. However, for the practitioner who is equivalent to the 'solute', the composition and microscopic state of the solute, as well as the hierarchical structure of the crystal nucleus and the strength of the chemical bonds are also aspects that can be controlled."

Emperor You continued to explain, comparing the profound cultivation theory with scientific concepts that Zhao Qing was familiar with, which seemed very "sincere":
"...The 'crystallization' of vital energy into the fetal garment is similar to the refining of 'life objects'. When the latter is a method of converting solid matter into a part of the true energy, it is used in reverse..."

"...In fact, the giant statue of hundreds of thousands of tons where Jiang Yan is is the crystallization of his life force. To practice the method of "avoiding the fetal membrane", one must first meet the basic requirements of condensing the true force into a physical object, and then use this to construct and activate a layer of "fetal membrane of heaven and earth" that is like the flow of living things, neutralizing the pressure of the internal and external laws..."

"With your natural talent and understanding, and the true meaning of the laws contained in this map, you can concentrate on comprehending it. It will take at least a year and a half, or at most three to five years, to accomplish your goal. At the same time, you can further refine your own true essence to make it more pure and condensed, laying a more solid foundation for your future impact on higher realms!"

"In the future, if you reach the upper level of the eighth realm, with frequent heavenly tribulations and repulsive forces, this method can also keep you safe. And when you reach the ninth realm barrier, there will be another wonderful thing..." "Isn't this too slow?"

Zhao Qing was speechless, but he knew in his heart that the so-called "Avoiding the Placenta" actually contained many secrets of the Eighth and Ninth Realms, especially the "Theory of Solvents of Heaven and Earth" mentioned by Emperor You during his explanation, which explained the deep pattern of the law of Yuan Qi from the perspective of the realm of immortality, and its value was beyond imagination.

If used for spiritual practice, it can also have the effect of resisting "consciousness assimilation". It seems that Emperor You's attitude is really good. He took the initiative to dispel many of her doubts, and then began to observe, memorize, and deduce with full concentration, as if he had realized something.

"If you want to leave quickly, I have other ways... However, the vitality here is really rich. If we can resist Jiang Yan's field, is there any other place in the world that can compare to it?"

Just as Zhao Qing was immersed in the mystery of this peerless technique, the voice of the Ghost Emperor sounded again: "Of course, the purpose of my teaching you the 'Escape from the Afterbirth' is to bring enough power to the outside. In addition to constructing the 'Magic Source Attraction Array', the rest can also help you practice quickly, improve yourself, and nourish your energy."

"Since you are my chosen 'fellow path', there will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. This world is vast, and it will be inconvenient if my will is confined to this corner of the abyss."

A larger and more complex three-dimensional rune array model was projected into the light mirror again. A strange crystal cluster that was constantly pulsating and emitting a deep purple-black light merged into the picture in front of Zhao Qing.

"This is the 'Nine Nether Demon Source Formation Chapter'," the Nether Emperor's voice was full of the "generosity" of a creator, "It is not a demon of evil spirits, but a pure energy attribute bias, tending to be sinister, dark, and fierce. Its essence is a way to more efficiently and radically tap the potential of the world and living beings!"

"As a pure aggregation of the laws of vitality, the Demonic Origin Core can be planted in the spiritual hub of the earth veins, or it can be parasitic on the bodies of powerful beasts and plants. Once planted, its power will spread like a plague, constantly infecting and transforming the surrounding vitality and living beings, turning them into 'demons'."

"Demonized creatures, although they are ferocious in appearance and their intelligence may be affected, their growth rate and resource utilization rate far exceed those of normal spiritual beasts and plants. It can be said that they are born with higher-level energy affinity and transformation characteristics, and can be used to refine elixirs in batches."

"Compared to ordinary elixirs, this type of 'magic potion' can also promote the spiritual activity of practitioners, guiding them into a state of almost burning and sublimation, making cultivation more efficient and easier, and making it easier to break through realms, making it quite suitable for training subordinates."

"And the magic source itself is an invaluable treasure!"

The tone of the Nether Emperor was filled with a kind of pride that looked down on the creation. "Once it takes root firmly, it will be able to unfold its own unique field of vital energy law, transforming into a node of the earth veins, forcibly penetrating the Nine Netherworlds, and drawing in the vast Yin Sha vital energy that has accumulated and precipitated in the depths of the earth for countless years."

"Not only can it nourish itself, but it can also feed back to the area where it is located, turning decay into magic, allowing small spiritual veins to advance to medium-sized ones, and medium-sized ones to leap to large ones. If you can find a suitable node to cultivate this thing when you are traveling outside, it will be of infinite benefit to you, whether it is to establish your own foundation or to complete the entrustment of this emperor."

It must be said that Emperor You really used all his skills to seduce her to become a carrier of his descent and to cultivate a strong "logistics base" or "agent" for his future "starry journey". This "sincerity" was also fully demonstrated in terms of power and resources.

Zhao Qing stared at the three-dimensional light and shadow that was constantly evolving the mystery of the magic source, her eyes focused, as if she was deeply attracted by this grand blueprint. While she was memorizing and understanding the essence of the "Magic Source Formation Chapter" at a rapid speed, she spoke again, with a "pragmatic" tone after being "convinced":
“Senior, your plan is great, and your gift is generous. I need time to comprehend the ‘Avoiding the Placenta’ and the ‘Magic Source Formation Building’. But…” She changed the subject and cast her gaze towards the black ice dome above her head, which was thousands of feet thick and emitted a faint blue-black light.

"This ice dome is solid, sealed inside and out, and there is no entrance. Since the senior said there is a passage, I wonder where it is? I should make plans early." As she spoke, as if to confirm her concerns and test the strength of the ice dome, the black crystal sword in her hand suddenly appeared.

"Zheng! Zheng! Zheng!"

Without hesitation, she slashed several times with her sword at the thick ice wall diagonally above her!

The sword light was bright, containing the sharpness of cutting through the void. However, the sword energy only left a few white marks about ten feet deep on the dark blue ice wall, making a dull sound of metal clashing, and was instantly frozen and healed by the thicker cold air!
The ice wall remained motionless, its hardness far exceeded imagination.

Zhao Qing frowned slightly, seemingly not surprised by the result, but the "solemnity" in his eyes became even more intense.

She approached the ice wall with a sword in hand, stretched out her left hand that was not holding the sword, and silently practiced the "avoiding the placenta" method she had just learned. A layer of soft white light covered her palm, and she carefully pressed it against the icy blue ice surface, as if carefully sensing its structure and thickness.

"This ice is dense black ice, and has been soaked by the netherworld water here for billions of years. It is harder than cold iron and cannot be broken by brute force."

The Emperor's divine thoughts sounded at the right time, with a hint of indifference that he was in control of the overall situation, "The passage is not here. My friend, please be patient. When your placenta is formed, this emperor will open a passage for you..."

However, he didn't finish his words!
A sudden change occurred!

Zhao Qing was putting his palm against the ice wall, seemingly thinking of a way to break the ice, but his figure suddenly disappeared without any warning!

It was not an afterimage left by an extremely fast speed, but the whole person seemed to merge into the void in an instant and became translucent, like a ray of moonlight cast into the water and instantly lost its substance.

That indestructible blue ice wall was like nothing to her!
