I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 594 Gratitude and Revenge
After an unknown period of time, Jiang Wen slowly opened his eyes. The blood moon in the sky remained unchanged, seemingly unchanged for eternity.

Feeling the golden core within his body reach its perfect state, he nodded in satisfaction.

The Daoist Golden Core Dao is indeed extraordinary; even such depletion can be restored to perfection. As long as we don't encounter that giant spirit god again, there shouldn't be any major danger.

The campfire in front of him was still warm, while Liang Yuan across from him remained asleep.

Jiang Wen did not disturb her, but got up and walked towards the outside of the formation.

Perhaps a night had passed, perhaps several nights had gone by. In this land of blood moon, time had become unknowable.

He was worried about Li Yunshang and the others, but he figured the golden light wouldn't lead them into danger. After all, such Heavenly Gang Immortal Techniques all had methods to avoid misfortune; they were supreme techniques of the Daoist sect. With the Five Elements Spirit Pearls providing protection, even the Giant Spirit God would find it difficult to break through them in a short time.

"With Yunshang's quick wit, she should have escaped danger."

Still feeling uneasy, Jiang Wen consulted the oracle, and the result was very auspicious. Reassured, he looked towards the outside of the formation.

Outside the formation at this moment, countless withered, blackened corpses piled up.

These strange creatures are all monsters from this place. They were killed by the formation yesterday when they tried to break through it. With such low-level monsters swarming in the Blood Moon Land, ordinary people would probably not survive more than three days if they entered.

He summoned the Heavenly Strike Sword and annihilated the black corpses that surrounded him.

Arriving at a decaying ancient tree, Jiang Wen stood on the canopy and looked in all directions.

In the distance, a dark forest stretched like a sea, its surface shrouded in a bloody mist. From the shadowy figures, the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling seemed to drift over. Those cacophonous, eerie cries sent shivers down one's spine.

I was thinking about where to leave, as staying in this place was not a long-term solution.

Although he had the water of the spiritual spring by his side, he wouldn't lack the means to restore his magical power for the time being. However, he couldn't stay here indefinitely, as he still had many things to do.

In this land of blood moon, death is inevitable sooner or later.

Jiang Wen took out a Bagua compass from his storage bag, picked up a few copper coins, and placed them on the compass. He pointed at the coins and chanted incantations.

"I lead the Three Elements into the Kan Palace, pass through Gen and ascend to Qian to reach the heavens. I return to Zhen Palace, riding the Azure Dragon, and the Dui position commands me to traverse a thousand layers. The Kun chariot and the Li horse gallop in the Xun wind, and I bow my head to the Three Platforms under the canopy. So be it!"

The copper coin stood upright, as if divinely aided. It rotated around the compass, trembling slightly.

The Bagua compass emitted a white light, and the four symbols and eight trigrams transformed, presenting the forces of heaven, earth, wind, water, and fire before one's eyes.

Jiang Wen's calculations were incredibly accurate, and the Ziwei Doushu (Purple Star Astrology) was in motion.

Good or bad fortune can be decided in a single thought; it seems as if a tai chi symbol is born between the eyes.

"Settle." With a soft utterance, the copper coin fell into the dish. His brows furrowed as he made a fist.

"Strange, this art of divination is useless? Can't it predict good or bad fortune?" Jiang Wen muttered to himself, somewhat surprised.

He had intended to divine his future, but the divination results were ultimately unclear. It was as if something was influencing his divination, making it difficult for him to see his future clearly.

Ziwei Doushu is one of the four pillars of destiny techniques in Taoism, also known as "Ziwei Dousuan Zhishu".

Through his deduction and deep practice, this method can be used to predict people's fortunes and misfortunes. It can also predict the cycle of heaven and earth, and the law of cause and effect.

This can also be considered one of his commonly used divination methods.

I thought it would be of great use in this land of blood moon, but it seems unlikely.

Jiang Wen frowned in thought, then turned to look at Liang Yuan, who was sleeping not far away. He was pointing at the Bagua compass, calculating the woman's fate.

As the copper coin landed, his brows furrowed even more.

"Something's not right. Why can I divine for others?" Jiang Wen was greatly surprised, and his doubts grew even stronger.

Fang Qian could divine Li Yunshang and the others, so he thought this method could be used, but when he divined his own future, he felt confused and lost. Therefore, Jiang Wen also calculated Liang Yuan's fate, and the divination showed that fortune and misfortune were intertwined. In comparison, he had both doubts and understanding in his heart.

"It seems that in this land of blood moon, I cannot be considered to be involved in matters concerning myself."

With a sigh, Jiang Wen put away the compass. He leaped down and walked to Liang Yuan's side. He took out a furnace from his storage bag and placed several spiritual herbs inside. Then, he activated the Samadhi True Fire and began refining pills.

……

Liang Yuan woke up from his dream, the scent of medicinal pills wafting to his nose.

She had a very long dream, a beautiful dream. So beautiful that she didn't want to wake up, wishing only to remain in it forever. All the troubles of the past were cast aside, leaving only a peaceful life.

But one must eventually wake up from a dream. When she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Wen sitting cross-legged on the spot, refining pills in a furnace.

Seeing that she was awake, Jiang Wen, who was fanning himself, smiled and said, "Awake?"

"You're awake." Liang Yuan nodded in thanks. "If it weren't for Brother Jiang's protection, I wouldn't have been able to rest so peacefully."

"It was nothing," Jiang Wen waved his hand dismissively, fanning the furnace with his fan, where flames roared.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan looked at Jiang Wen with some confusion and asked, "Brother Jiang, what are you doing?"

"Refine one pill," Jiang Wen said. "It will be ready in two more hours."

"..." Liang Yuan was puzzled; she hadn't expected Jiang Wen to be able to refine pills. Filled with doubt, she sat down and tried to recover her magical power.

However, her body was completely empty, and she couldn't absorb the spiritual energy of the Blood Moon Land. No matter how much she struggled, she couldn't recover even a fraction of her magical power. In the end, she could only resign herself to her fate and give up, preparing to see what that person would do.

Suddenly, a loud "bang" was heard, and Liang Yuan quickly opened his eyes.

A mist swirled before my eyes, and a refreshing, ethereal aura swept over me.

She greedily inhaled a few breaths, and her depleted magical power returned in a few strands. Overjoyed, she opened her lips, wanting to swallow the spiritual mist.

Unfortunately, the fog dissipated quickly, and she vanished into the world before she could recover much of her magic power.

Liang Yuan reluctantly closed her mouth, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Jiang Wen: "Brother Jiang, what kind of pill were you practicing just now? I only inhaled a few breaths of the pill's aura and was able to recover some of my magical power."

"Just a pill to restore one's cultivation." Jiang Wen beckoned to the alchemy furnace, and three round, pearl-like pills flew out of the furnace and landed in his palm.

Its jewels gleamed, and its spiritual energy emanated endlessly.

Even from a distance, one could smell the sweet aroma of the spiritual energy, and Liang Yuan was truly envious.

She had actually brought some pills with her, but they disappeared when her storage bag collapsed. At the last moment, she could barely save herself, let alone the pills.

It seemed unlikely that this person would give her the pill, so Liang Yuan abandoned any thought of exchanging it for one. After all, they had fought to the death not long ago; how could they possibly get along harmoniously now?

Just as I was feeling somewhat disheartened, I sensed something flying towards me.

Liang Yuan reached out and caught it; a round pill landed in her palm. She looked up in surprise at Jiang Wen, her expression puzzled: "This is for me?"

"Here you go." Jiang Wen nodded.

"Why would you..."

Before the woman could speak, Jiang Wen interrupted her, shaking his head as he looked at her and said, "Are you asking me why I sent pills to such an enemy as you?"

"Mm." Liang Yuan nodded.

"It's just for self-preservation," Jiang Wen said. "This Blood Moon Land is no ordinary place. Your cultivation level is not low, and having more people means more protection. Although we fought each other before, now that things have come to this, it's best to remain at peace. Besides, even if you recover your cultivation level, I am not afraid of you. I also believe that you are not such a heartless person, otherwise you wouldn't have done these things."

"..." Liang Yuan remained silent, refusing to utter another word.

She looked at the pill in her hand and swallowed it without further hesitation.

"I cannot express my gratitude enough," she said slowly.
