Longevity: Beginning from the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 678 Heavenly Heart Yin Yang Nine Refinements Pure Yang Immortal Array
Generally speaking, after a typhoon, the primordial spirit is pure yang. When the yang spirit gathers, it takes shape; when it disperses, it becomes qi. It is closer to the Dao and forms its own cycle, possessing a certain indestructible nature. The so-called period of weakness is only relative.

More often than not, it is the impact and refinement of one's own Dao nature by the laws of heaven and earth, which requires some harmonization and nurturing in order to allow the Yang spirit to further comprehend the essence of the Great Dao and harmonize the five Qi in the chest. This process itself will not take too long.

But Lin Xuanzhi had his own reasons.

Combining the several immortal formations in the temple with the wind disaster formation obtained from the relics of Lotus Desire Bodhisattva, Lin Xuanzhi has meticulously deduced and perfected a "niche" formation over the years.

Although it may be considered a niche activity, every cultivator who is willing to take the risk can try it.

Ultimately, Lin Xuanzhi's purpose in using this formation was to refine his Yang Spirit by drawing upon the power of calamity and heaven and earth, and to extract the creation of heaven and earth. In addition to attempting to "skip" the brief period of weakness, he also wanted to try to comprehend some kind of profound essence of the fundamental law.

This approach was unanimously praised by everyone when Lin Xuanzhi contributed the immortal array to the Qingfeng Mingyue Pavilion.

Faced with a typhoon, even the most proud and confident person would strive for stability, but Lin Xuanzhi's actions can undoubtedly be described as reckless and audacious.

However, after careful consideration, Lingxuzi and the others also felt that it was indeed worthwhile, especially after Lin Xuanzhi expressed that he had gained many insights after observing the Ferry of Salvation.

However, if one wants to use the immortal array for some excitement, this method requires going outside the cave heaven and finding a feng shui treasure land in the vast world of Crimson Brightness to build the foundation "furnace" of the immortal array. Only in this way can one use the power of the great world to refine oneself.

The three calamities are brought down by the great world that it was born from, so one can cleverly utilize the environment of heaven and earth.

However, this method will inadvertently exacerbate the wind disaster, as some prudent senior practitioners in the temple do not recommend it.

In some lineages of Yuan Shen Dao, those who possess Yang Shen (spirit) are considered a pillar of the sect. Even in a sect like Xuandu, which is full of pure Yang, the status of Yang Shen cannot be ignored.

Therefore, many seniors also attached great importance to the matter of Lin Xuanzhi's typhoon.

Since they have chosen to undergo tribulation outside, they need protectors. Although they have no intention of setting a trap this time, they still need to be wary of anyone stubborn enough to offer themselves up.

However, all matters concerning the protection of the Dharma have been taken over by the Bone Immortal who has advanced to the Pure Yang realm, so Lin Xuanzhi should focus on himself.

With an outer immortal array, an inner talisman and the Eight Gates Refining Yang Ascension Technique, plus the secret treasure "Mi Chen Banner," Lin Xuanzhi's preparations were already complete.

The reason for the delay is simply to perfect the three treasure restrictions of the Great Crimson Celestial Phenomenon Diagram and attempt to weave together a portion of the fourth treasure restriction.

As Lin Xuanzhi's natal magic weapon, the Great Crimson Celestial Phenomenon Diagram also had to keep up with the pace of Lin Xuanzhi's rapid advancement.

Fortunately, Lin Xuanzhi's refining speed far exceeded that of ordinary people, and given his own level of comprehension, the bottleneck in refining his natal magic weapon was negligible; the only thing lacking was time.

Moreover, the primordial spirit of a natal magic weapon is equivalent to the cultivator's own primordial spirit, making the refining process faster. This is why Lin Xuanzhi was confident that he could complete the final step in the next few years and weave together the fourth illusory magic weapon restriction.

"The golden bamboo was planted, the Five Dragons Imperial Decree was nurtured in a Five Elements Treasure Land in the Grotto Heaven, the Spring of Life and Death and the two immortal swords were refined together in the Yin-Yang Mixed Cave next to the Taijing True Lord's Grotto, and the Wangshu Clear Moon Pearl was refined in the projection of the Taiyin Star in the Grotto Heaven by True Person Yueqing. They all have a good place to go..."

After taking stock, Lin Xuanzhi nodded to himself. Although he had a large family business, he had done his best for all the magical treasures.

Even at the Yanhai Nanming Immortal Sect, he subtly showed concern, bestowing upon them immortal swords and secret treasures as a token of his care.

However, he estimated that Yun Xilingjun and the others had probably seen it all, but since they didn't say anything, they could continue.

Several of the special materials he deduced for the "Heavenly Heart Yin Yang Nine Refinements Pure Yang Immortal Array" were sent from there.

Most of the materials for this formation were obtained through exchanges within the temple, and a few rare items were acquired by True Lord Taijing through the creation of a small world.

To this end, he also spent some effort transforming the resources he gleaned from the Treasure Raft for Crossing the World, and deduced two techniques that directly point to the Yang God: "The True Treasure Scripture of Tribulations Through the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations" and "The Purple Extreme Heavenly Star: I Alone Understand the Dao Chapter", as well as two secret techniques for crossing the tribulations of thunder and fire, and one formation to delay the tribulations of the three calamities.

At the same time, he will also contribute the wind and rain summoning and the power of controlling size that he obtained from Liu Li's dragon clan.

Otherwise, given the requirements of his immortal array, a little merit wouldn't be enough to exchange for anything.

He was capable of deduce the techniques of the Dao of Life, Death, Yin and Yang, but without spending a great deal of effort and time, he could not surpass the level of the Heavenly Book in the Observatory.

Rarity increases value, and the celestial books on the paths of calamity and stars undoubtedly enrich one's foundation. These two techniques, which directly lead to the Yang Spirit, will be mastered by future true disciples!
Although most cultivation methods would be questioned without personal verification, there would be no problem after being reviewed by many pure Yang practitioners.

Therefore, the more than fifty years after Lin Xuanzhi's return can be described as extremely fulfilling, as he was multitasking and scheming.

Now that he seems to have some free time, he has only just realized the matter of his cheap grand-disciple.

With a thought, a full moon appeared slightly in the sky above the cave, and a drop of water fell down to the heavens. In Lin Xuanzhi's cave, it transformed into a precious pearl with flowing yin light, and the primordial spirit within it already had a trace of yang energy.

They clearly look like they've survived a lightning strike!
Before the transaction, Master Yueqing highly praised this treasure, stating that it possessed the potential to overcome both the calamities of thunder and fire.

Now that the master is at home, he helped refine this treasure while studying it, and more than twenty years ago he successfully passed the tribulation. Now the primordial spirit within it has matured a bit, and its power has increased considerably.

Feeling the joy of the primordial spirit within, Lin Xuanzhi couldn't help but smile slightly.

Immediately, the innate pure qi above his head flew out and poured into the precious pearl. The spirit of pure qi manifested through the magic treasure, then gently nodded to his main body before flying out of the cave.

There are not many things to worry about now. Although it is inconvenient for the main body to move, it is no longer a problem to send out avatars.

The abbot of Lingxu Temple deduced several suitable places for Lin Xuanzhi to undergo tribulation, but he still needed to personally investigate them to determine the specifics.

The food is already served to you; it's not good to trouble others to run errands for you.

The standards required for a place to undergo tribulation are different from those required for auspicious feng shui sites for the establishment of ordinary sects.

Otherwise, Lin Xuanzhi's needs would most likely not be met, and there's a high probability that it would be someone else's headquarters.

Lin Xuanzhi moved along the way, his destination clear, but not inland, but the East China Sea.

The abbot of Lingxu Temple pointed out three places, one of which was in the East Sea. Lin Xuanzhi went there first, and also took the opportunity to visit Xu Xuan's adopted grand-disciple.

He was still somewhat curious about this sudden reincarnation.

With the Seven Treasures Golden Canopy present, Lin Xuanzhi had previously suspected that Xu Xuan might have already caught the eye of a Buddhist master from beyond the realm.

Taking this opportunity to observe briefly, I also took the chance to "gift" the Lotus Relic to my good grand-disciple.

The Buddhist lineage within the relics is of the highest quality, especially the Great Seal of Bitter Sea of ​​Life, which contains the supreme and profound mysteries of the Great Dao. Although the orthodox sects of Taoism may have some sectarian biases, how could they discriminate against the Great Dao itself?

Therefore, although the various Buddhist traditions in Qingfeng Mingyue Pavilion are not included in the "canonical texts," their value cannot be ignored.

Now that this gift is right in front of him, Xu Xuan will surely accept it willingly.

As Lin Xuanzhi's thoughts raced, he soon smelled the sea breeze, and the abundant water element was very active between heaven and earth.

From the perspective of the laws of heaven and earth, even without deliberate influence, the East Sea region is subtly more suitable for cultivators who practice the ways of water, clouds and rain, and wind and thunder.

And if nothing unexpected happens, the wind and rain summoning technique obtained from Liu Li will also be of some help in cultivating here.

After silently calculating for a moment, Lin Xuanzhi moved, transforming into a ray of moonlight and heading towards a small fishing village in an archipelago.

Lin Xuanzhi had many old friends in the East China Sea, but he always "favored" his cheap disciples and grand-disciples.

Xu Xuan must have been overjoyed to be reunited with his family after so long.
