Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 346 The principles of heaven and earth, common progress!
Early the next morning, Tu Junfang left "Qingqiu" and returned to the "Thirty-Six Heavens".

At this time, all the "top masters" are still waiting in the same place. After all, they are all practicing, it doesn't matter where they are, there is no harm in waiting a few more days.

When Dangtu Junfang returned and sat cross-legged in front of everyone, everyone smiled and opened their eyes.

Now that their practice has been completed, they naturally want to discuss the Dao in order to promote and consolidate their practice.

And since the way Tu Junfang practices is the "Way of the Ghost Immortal Yang God", which is related to the "Qi Bureau of Heaven and Earth" and the "self-proclaimed Bureau and Formation", this discussion of the Tao will naturally be led by the sorcerers.

Then, Zhuge Kongming, Sima Zhongda and Mr. Shuijing stepped forward and sat down.

Take a moment to calm down...

Zhuge Kongming waved his feather fan and spoke first:

"Since you have achieved Yang Godhood, I think you have a deep understanding of the energy of heaven and earth. Why don't we discuss the Dao and verify each other's Dao?"

As he spoke, he looked at Tu Junfang with burning eyes, his eyes full of anticipation.

Sima Zhongda also nodded, his deep gaze fell on Tu Junfang, and he said in a deep voice:

"That's what I mean too."

He stroked his beard and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Mr. Shuijing also stroked his beard and smiled, expressing his agreement:

"I would also like to hear the details."

Although his tone was calm, there was an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.

Tu Junfang nodded happily. The four of them sat cross-legged, standing opposite each other. An invisible "aura" spread among the four of them, and the air around them seemed to solidify.

Zhuge Kongming first expounded on the art of Qimen Dunjia. He spoke eloquently, his voice steady and powerful:
"Qi Men Dun Jia is based on the three elements of heaven, earth and man, and combines yin and yang, the five elements and the eight trigrams to deduce the changes in the qi of heaven and earth..."

As he spoke, he demonstrated with his true Qi. A faint golden light flowed through his fingertips, evolving into various strange formations.

Phantoms of formations appeared out of thin air, attacking or defending, with unpredictable changes. Some formations were like a solid wall of iron, indestructible; some were like a spirit snake spitting out its tongue, unpredictable; and some were like a net covering all directions.

Between the shadows of the formation, golden light flickered, runes flowed, and it was extremely mysterious. Powerful forces surged within it, as if it contained the power to destroy the world.

The surrounding trees swayed with the changes in the formation, and fallen leaves fluttered down like golden butterflies flying in the air. The sand and stones on the ground also vibrated, making slight sounds.

Sima Zhongda talked about the tactics of war. His voice was low and hoarse, like the sound of weapons and horses on the battlefield:

"The art of war uses the art of war to deduce the general trend of heaven and earth, emphasizing the use of momentum to suppress the enemy and the use of surprise to achieve victory..."

As he spoke, he demonstrated with his true Qi. A faint black light flowed through his fingertips, evolving into various military formations. These military formations were phantoms, either attacking or defending, with precise advances and retreats, and orderly offense and defense.

Some military formations are like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable; some are like lurking dragons in the abyss, waiting for an opportunity to strike; and some are like a solid wall of iron and steel, indestructible.

Between the shadows of the soldiers, black light flickered and murderous aura filled the air. Waves of murderous energy surged in it, as if they could devour everything.

The air around seemed to become heavy, so oppressive that it made people feel breathless.

Mr. Shuijing expounded on the changes of yin and yang based on his own understanding of the Book of Changes. His voice was clear and melodious, like the flowing of a spring in a mountain stream:
"The way of Yin and Yang changes emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang, and the endless cycle of life..."

As he spoke, he demonstrated with his true Qi. A faint white light flowed through his fingertips, giving rise to various yin and yang changes that were extremely mysterious.

The yin and yang energies blended at his fingertips, sometimes turning into a black and white Tai Chi diagram, slowly rotating, sometimes turning into two dragons chasing each other, and sometimes turning into the sun, moon and stars, shining brightly against each other.

Between the changes of yin and yang, white light flickered, the rhythm of Tao flowed, and gentle power surged in it, as if it could embrace everything.

The air around seems to become fresher, making people feel refreshed.

After listening to this, Tu Junfang nodded frequently. Combining his own understanding of the Yin and Yang worlds and the ways of ghosts and immortals, he put forward his own unique insights:
"What the three Taoist friends said is indeed correct and makes me suddenly enlightened..."

"Although my path to becoming a ghost immortal is different from that of your fellow Taoists, we both have the same goal."

"I believe that the energy of heaven and earth is not static, but is constantly changing. The same is true for the Yin and Yang worlds."

"The way of ghost immortals is to comprehend the changes of yin and yang and integrate them into their own way, ultimately transcending the cycle of life and death."

After he finished speaking, Tu Junfang took his own "body in heaven and earth" as the foundation, integrated his understanding of the Yin and Yang worlds and the ways of ghosts and immortals into it, and derived various changes to explain his own way.

In an instant, black and white light began to flow from his fingertips and a huge black and white millstone shadow appeared behind him. The millstone slowly rotated, and the yin and yang energies flowed on it, which was extremely mysterious.

Immediately afterwards, countless twisted and abstract runes appeared on the millstone. These runes were like tadpoles, constantly swimming and changing, and finally formed a complete picture.

This diagram is a scene of the fusion and cycle of the Yin and Yang worlds. It is deep and mysterious, and difficult to see through.

Tu Junfang's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He controlled the rotation of the millstone and the transformation of the runes. Every tiny movement seemed extremely strenuous...

This is not a simple demonstration, but a display of his understanding of the Yin and Yang in the most intuitive way, which contains his years of hard work and insights.

Afterwards, the shadow of the Yin-Yang Millstone suddenly shattered and turned into countless light spots, which merged into Tu Junfang's body. His aura also became more profound and unfathomable, like an abyss, making it impossible to grasp.

Seeing this, everyone nodded in appreciation.

Zhuge Kongming waved his feather fan and praised with a smile:
"Daoyou's understanding of the principles of yin and yang is indeed profound."

A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. Tu Junfang's understanding had reached an extremely high level.

Sima Zhongda also stroked his beard and exclaimed:

"The way of ghost immortals is indeed mysterious."

A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he felt that combining the ways of ghost immortals with military tactics might be able to create an even more powerful force.

Mr. Shuijing stroked his beard and smiled, saying:

"Yin and Yang complement each other, and life continues forever. Your understanding of the way of Yin and Yang has reached the highest level."

His eyes were full of praise. His understanding of the Yin and Yang had surpassed the ordinary scope and reached a whole new height.

Tu Junfang smiled modestly and said:

"Thank you for your praise, my Dao is still not perfect, and I need to learn a lot from you."

And this was just the beginning. Everyone immediately continued the discussion and elaborated on their own ideas in more depth.

Next…

Zhuge Kongming, with his own understanding of Qi Men Dun Jia, explained in detail the situation of the heaven and earth in his mind. He gently waved the feather fan in his hand, muttered to himself, and the true Qi flowed through his fingertips, transforming into phantoms of formations.

There are trap arrays that are shaped like the Eight Diagrams and are unpredictable... There are killing arrays that are sharp and murderous...

There is an impregnable, extremely defensive formation...

Each formation was so exquisite and powerful that Tu Junfang was dazzled and filled with admiration.

After Zhuge Kongming finished his explanation, Sima Zhongda began to talk about how to use terrain and military strength to arrange battle formations.

His voice was low and deep, like the sound of fighting on a battlefield, which made people feel awe.

Sima Zhongda also demonstrated with true Qi. The true Qi at his fingertips transformed into thousands of troops, who lined up to fight, advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and had both offensive and defensive capabilities. All kinds of changes were breathtaking.

The formation he explained was not a simple deployment of troops, but a combination of many factors such as terrain, weather, and human hearts. It was changeable and difficult to guard against.

Mr. Shui Jing explained how to use the yin and yang energies to harmonize the formation from the perspective of the changes of yin and yang.

His voice was clear, like a mountain spring, relaxing and refreshing. The true energy flowed through his fingertips, and the yin and yang energies blended, creating all kinds of mysterious changes in the formation.

The formation is sometimes like a raging sea, sometimes like a calm lake, sometimes like a violent storm, and sometimes like a gentle breeze and drizzle. It is unpredictable and difficult to grasp.

After listening to this, Tu Junfang combined his own understanding of the Yin and Yang worlds and the ways of ghosts and immortals and put forward his own unique insights.

He spoke slowly, his voice slightly hoarse, but clear and powerful:

"What the three Taoist friends said is all true, and this is my understanding."

Tu Junfang used the true Qi from his fingertips as a guide to sketch a scene where the Yin and Yang worlds merged.

The black and white energy flowed through his fingertips, sometimes transforming into ferocious evil spirits, with bared fangs and claws, and hideous faces...

Sometimes he turns into a kind Buddha, with a solemn appearance, holding a flower and smiling...

Sometimes they transform into birds, beasts, fish and insects, vivid and lifelike...

Sometimes it turns into mountains and rivers, majestic and magnificent.

This ever-changing scene is breathtaking, as if you are in a real world of yin and yang.

He explained how to utilize the transformation of yin and yang to integrate the power of the yin world into the yang world, and also explained how to utilize the power of yin and yang balance to achieve enlightenment.

Zhuge Kongming waved his feather fan, pondered for a moment, and said:

"You are absolutely right, the balance of yin and yang is the foundation of the Qi Bureau. My Qi Men Dun Jia is also based on this principle."

As he spoke, he pointed his feather fan into the air. His true Qi surged, forming a star map in the air. On the map, stars twinkled and moved endlessly.

"As the star disk rotates, the energy of heaven and earth changes accordingly, and the way to control the energy is to find a way to balance in this change."

Sima Zhongda's deep gaze fell on the chaotic energy at Tu Junfang's fingertips and he nodded slightly:
"The balance of yin and yang is also the essence of the art of war."

His fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a crisp sound.

"The art of war is to strike a balance between attack and defense, and to advance and retreat with reason, so that one can be invincible."

Mr. Shuijing also stroked his beard and smiled slightly.

For a time, the discussion entered a white-hot stage, with various ideas colliding and sparks flying.

Zhuge Kongming used the art of Qimen Dunjia to deduce the changes in the energy of heaven and earth and integrated it into the formation.

He gently waved his feather fan, muttered something, and the true energy flowed through his fingertips. The phantoms of the formations appeared out of thin air, changing unpredictably.

Sima Zhongda used military tactics and emphasized the use of force to overwhelm the enemy and win by surprise. He tapped the table with his fingers, as if he was commanding thousands of troops, arranging their battle formations, and advancing and retreating in an orderly manner.

Mr. Shui Jing used the theory of the changes of Yin and Yang to explain the mystery of the balance of Yin and Yang. He formed seals with his hands, and the Yin and Yang energies blended at his fingertips, sometimes turning into a Tai Chi diagram, slowly rotating, and sometimes turning into two dragons, chasing each other.

Tu Junfang expounded on his own way of ghosts and immortals, and put forward the concept of "transformation of yin and yang, and reincarnation of life and death".

He held his hands up in the air, and in his palms, the yin and yang energies merged to form a miniature world. In this world, there were mountains, rivers, plants, birds, and animals, all full of vitality.

Everyone expressed their opinions, complemented each other, verified each other, and jointly discussed the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and the great principles of yin and yang.

During this profound exchange, the four of them also came up with new insights. In addition, since their paths had the same origin, they gradually merged with each other.

So, the four of them looked at each other, and their thoughts moved, and they had the same idea in their hearts.

Zhuge Kongming waved his feather fan lightly, first constructing a basic Qi situation, and then incorporating his own understanding of Qimen Dunjia into it. The Qimen situation was unpredictable, the formation changed, it aroused the power of heaven and earth, and made the spiritual rhythm in the "Thirty-six Heavens" vibrate.

Sima Zhongda incorporated military tactics into it, emphasizing the use of force to overwhelm the enemy, winning by surprise, deploying troops and making advances and retreats based on facts, making the balance of power more stable.

Mr. Shui Jing used the principle of Yin and Yang to harmonize the formation. The Yin and Yang energies flowed in his hands, turning into a Tai Chi diagram that slowly rotated, maintaining the balance of the energy of heaven and earth.

Tu Junfang incorporated the ways of ghosts and immortals into it. The power of the Yin and Yang worlds blended in his hands, transforming into the phantom of a black and white millstone, which slowly rotated, connecting the Yin and Yang worlds and making the situation even more mysterious.

The phantom of Tu Junfang's millstone slowly rotates, the black and white energies blend together, and the changes are endless, which is breathtaking.

Zhuge Kongming's feather fan was constantly waving, and the Bagua pattern faintly appeared on the fan. The operation of the Qimen Bureau was getting faster and faster, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged like a tide.

Sima Zhongda's expression also became solemn. He stared at the phantom of Tu Junfang's millstone, calculating with his hands, as if he was deducing something.

Mr. Shui Jing always maintained a peaceful smile, holding the Tai Chi diagram in his hands, as steady as a mountain.

For a moment, the spiritual energy around them became increasingly intense, almost becoming tangible, lingering around the four people like clouds and mist.

The powers of the four people blended and influenced each other, forming a new aura of heaven and earth. This aura was a balance of yin and yang, endless, mysterious, and made heaven and earth boil.

Then, the four of them chanted again.

The black and white millstone shadows of Tu Junfang and Zhuge Kongming's Qimen Dunjia echoed each other, and a murderous aura was faintly revealed as the formation changed.

Sima Zhongda's military strategies were integrated into it, making the murderous atmosphere more solid, as if thousands of troops were galloping in it.

Mr. Shui Jing's Tai Chi diagram rotated slowly, dissolving the murderous aura into nothingness and maintaining the balance of the energy of heaven and earth.

As time went by, the four of them felt that their understanding had improved, their perception of the great Dao of heaven and earth had reached a higher level, and Tu Junfang's "Yang Shen" had become more solid.

Zhuge Kongming felt that his art of Qimen Dunjia had become more sophisticated, Sima Zhongda felt that his strategy of war had become more profound, and Mr. Shuijing felt that his way of Yin and Yang changes had become more mysterious.

It's actually common progress!
