Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 969: Eight Yuan Divine Abyss
The returning natural force is dispersed by the special terrain within the abyss and absorbed by the caves distributed throughout the abyss.

In some caves, human figures can be vaguely seen, absorbing natural energy according to their location.

As soon as Leng Hanfu and others entered the training center, they felt the abundant natural power of the place.

Leng Hanfu, in particular, became particularly sensitive to the elements of heaven and earth after practicing "Three-Part Return to Origin Qi".

The alternation of Feng and Shui is called ice, and the alternation of water and fire is called cloud.

The cold empowerment clearly captured the two special forces of frost and cloud produced by the agitation of the eight energies inside the abyss.

Leng Hanfu looked at the interior of the abyss, which seemed to have many obvious traces of artificial excavation, and sighed, "I didn't expect that the academy could achieve this level with human power."

"Young man, you don't know this. The training ground of the academy is also known as the 'Eight Yuan Divine Abyss.'" The guard here is an elderly instructor in a black robe. Seeing Leng Hanfu and others' new arrival, he spontaneously explained to them: "The Eight Yuan Divine Abyss was dug out by many masters of geomancy in the academy according to the eight directions of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui in the Xiantian Bagua diagram. They used the power of heaven and earth to absorb the eight natural forces between heaven and earth. Then, using the large formation above our heads, this power is retained in the Divine Abyss for the students of the academy to practice."

"Koujie~()" After hearing this, Geng Gui looked as if he didn't know what it was, but he thought it was very powerful.

Leng Hanfu looked at the scene in Shenyuan and told the old teacher about his observations. "Teacher, according to my observations, the distribution of caves in Shenyuan should be based on the Bagua diagram, with eight layers from top to bottom. The layer closest to the ground has 8864 caves. They should correspond to the 64 hexagrams in the Bagua diagram. Students in the academy can enter the caves according to the changes of the Bagua according to the martial arts they have learned. But..."

At this point, Leng Hanfu showed a questioning look on his face, "Students, you may not know that the academy is divided into five grades. Even if there are a few students who drop out of each grade, there are at least 200 students, including the teachers of each grade. How can Shenyuan guarantee that every student can enter the inner seeding to rest?"

"You are worthy of the place in the academy examination for asking such a question." The old teacher in black clothes twisted his long white beard, looked at Leng Hanfu with satisfaction, and said, "There are caves in the caves. For example, the sixty-four caves on the top layer each contain eight small caves, and each small cave is enough for people to practice. In the fifty-eight caves on the second layer, each cave has seven small caves, and the number decreases gradually. In the entire Eight Yuan Divine Abyss, there are a total of 1,632 caves for people to practice. It is enough for all the teachers and students of the academy to practice."

As if he had opened up a conversation, the old teacher spoke nonstop: "Not only that, the special thing about Shenyuan is that the deeper you go, the stronger the natural energy becomes, and the greater the pressure people feel."

Leng Hanfu immediately understood what the old instructor meant and replied, "The instructor means that every cultivator who wants to enter the deep layers of the Divine Abyss must have a corresponding foundation."

The old teacher confirmed Leng Hanfu's speculation, looked at Leng Hanfu with appreciation, and continued: "Yes, with each level down, the natural force and pressure faced by the practitioners will increase. The first level stopped most of the students who had just entered the academy. And these students, after practicing hard, can enter the second level for practice. Only a very small number of students who are about to finish their studies in the academy can barely enter the third level. There are very few students who can enter the fourth level."

Leng Sheng Bie Yan, who was standing by, heard that the Eight Yuan Divine Abyss was so mysterious and asked curiously, "Then I wonder if there are any students in the academy who have entered the fifth floor?"

The old teacher's face showed a look of reminiscence, and he said, "Of course there are, but they are rare. Each one is a leader of that class. But these people only stop at the fifth floor. Only the gentlemen and professors of the academy can go down to the sixth floor."

Then, he warned Leng Hanfu and the others with a serious look: "To be honest, being able to enter the third level of Shenyuan will be of great benefit to the future of the students of the academy. Young people should not aim too high."

Leng Hanfu could feel the abundant natural power just by standing outside the Divine Abyss. The endless "Three-part Return to Origin Qi" in his body absorbed the power floating in the air and improved it bit by bit.

This made Leng Hanfu more and more curious about the peculiarities of Shenyuan as he dug deeper into it.

After hearing the old teacher's description, he became even more curious and asked, "Then I wonder what mysteries are beyond the sixth level?"

The old teacher heard Leng Hanfu's question and replied, "The academy calls this explosion of natural power 'elemental tide'. And after each explosion of elemental tide, there will always be some spiritual energy that is not absorbed. And this part of spiritual energy is absorbed by the Tai Chi diagram at the bottom and transformed into the purest yin and yang energy."

"This means that the closer a person enters the abyss to practice, the faster he or she will practice. But correspondingly, the greater the pressure on the body from the yin and yang forces will be."

“Only a strong foundation can help practitioners go further and further in the Body and Soul Abyss.”

"This is also the reason why when Shenyuan was first built, the caves became fewer and fewer as you went down. Because there were only a few that met the requirements."

Afterwards, the old teacher warned Leng Hanfu and the others very seriously: "Before you enter, I give you a suggestion, that is, do it within your ability and don't be too aggressive. If you enter a field that you are not allowed to enter now, you may have been crushed by the yin and yang energy before the teacher of the academy rescued you."

"I have said all that needs to be said. It is up to you to choose." After everything that needed to be said had been said, the old instructor waved his hand to let Leng Hanfu and others in.

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher." After hearing what the old teacher said, Leng Hanfu and the others couldn't wait to enter the Eight Yuan Divine Abyss to find out what was going on.

Needless to say, Leng Hanfu and Geng Gui turned into light and flew into the first floor that had been selected long ago, which was located in the Xun position.

He led Leng Hanfu and others into the Divine Abyss to practice. The old instructor stationed above the Divine Abyss radiated light all over his body.

A white light flashed, and the old instructor in black clothes lived up to his old age.

A Taoist immortal with a childlike face, white hair, an immortal demeanor, and a transcendent appearance appeared where the old instructor had stood before.

It is one of the places where Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are taught in the academy.

Dixian looked at the Shenyuan Cave where Leng Hanfu and Geng Gui entered with his sharp eyes, and said, "Yesterday, I heard from Master Faru that the commotion was caused by your cultivation. I can't help but be a little curious. Today, let me see what you are capable of."
