Honghuang Xuanyang Dao

Chapter 27: The Proof of Truth in the Flesh (Please Collect)
It has been thousands of years since I left Xuanyang Mountain.

Li Xuanyang rode the cloud light back to the island and saw the golden crane and silver crane boys running to greet him.

"Golden Crane, Silver Crane, welcome the master back to the mountain!"

"Has anything happened in the mountains during this period?" Li Xuanyang asked the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys.

"Since the master left last time, Senior Zhulong came to visit in person, but when he saw that the master had not yet returned to the mountain, he left some spiritual objects and said goodbye."

"Also, on the side of the Chaos Spirit Spring, the banana tree that was planted years ago has sprouted some branches and leaves a while ago."

The Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys told the story of what happened in the mountains.

Li Xuanyang was not surprised by Zhulong's visit, but he was a little curious about the branches and leaves growing on the banana tree.

"Our family's innate spiritual roots have grown branches and leaves!" The nine-headed feathered insect stared in the direction of the banana tree, feeling surprised and happy.

During this period, it went to Xikun Mountain all day long to follow Cangluan for food and drink, and naturally knew the preciousness of innate spiritual roots.

Even in the vast West Kunlun Mountains there is not a single innate spiritual root.

Unexpectedly, the banana tree in my own mountain has now grown branches and leaves.

"Let's go and take a look." Li Xuanyang walked to the side of the Chaos Spirit Spring and saw from afar that the banana tree had grown fat leaves, which were emerald green and full of vitality.

There is no sign of withering or loss of spiritual power at all.

However, this banana leaf is just the leaf of an ordinary innate spiritual root and does not contain the essence of wind, water, fire or earth.

Li Xuanyang uttered a sigh and turned to the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys and asked, "How have you two been watering the banana trees during this time?"

In just a few thousand years, the banana tree has undergone such amazing changes, which is definitely not just due to the effect of the Chaos Spirit Spring.

"Master, when the East China Sea Dragon Clan came to visit last time, they left behind a lot of spiritual objects, including more than ten drops of spiritual water, which they said can nourish spiritual roots." The Golden Crane Boy said this and pointed to a small tree about half a meter high not far away. The tree was fiery red all over, with slender silver branches and leaves, like a tree of fire and silver flowers.

"This spiritual root was given to me by Senior Zhulong some time ago. He asked me and Yinhe to plant it beside the spiritual spring and water it with spiritual water. We also watered the banana tree a little bit."

Innate spiritual water!

Fire Tree Silver Moon Spiritual Root!

"My fellow Daoist has sent me such a generous gift, but I feel unworthy to accept it." Li Xuanyang couldn't help but sigh at Zhulong's generous gift and the profound heritage of the dragon clan.

There is no need to say much about the innate spiritual water.

This Fire Tree Silver Moon spiritual root is clearly of the innate level and is an extremely precious innate spiritual root.

Although it is not one of the ten great innate spiritual roots in the ancient times, nor is it even a top-grade innate spiritual root, it is only a low-grade innate spiritual root that can produce the Silver Moon Spirit Fruit, which contains a trace of Taiyin essence.

But after all, it is an innate number, and its preciousness far exceeds that of many acquired spiritual roots.

"Old Zhulong is so generous!" The nine-headed feathered insect's eyes almost popped out, and he felt very happy. Maybe the ancestor could also take advantage of this opportunity to taste the innate spiritual fruit.

"Okay, all of you go and practice." Li Xuanyang instructed the Nine-headed Feathered Insect and the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys, and then put the Innate Twelve-grade White Lotus of Purification and the broken Innate Twelve-grade Black Lotus of Destruction into the Chaos Spirit Spring, nourishing them with the spring water and the chaotic energy.

Then, he took out the innate spiritual water given by the Queen Mother of the West and watered several spiritual roots with a few drops.

He found a pavilion beside the Chaos Spirit Spring, sat down, closed his eyes and meditated, concentrating on comprehending the ancestor witch's method of cultivation.

Hou Tu is one of the twelve ancestor witches of the witch clan. Except for a part of her ancestral witch practice method that was created by combining her own insights, the rest are all inherited from the ancient god Pangu.

It can be divided into two parts: the first is the method of physical cultivation, and the second is the method of law cultivation. The former is the way to prove the Tao by force, and the latter is the way to cultivate the innate law.

Li Xuanyang only took a few glances at the principles of Hou Tu's cultivation and didn't pay any more attention to them. He immersed his mind in the method of physical cultivation.

The physical cultivation method of the ancestor of the witch clan is very mysterious. It focuses on using the turbid energy of the earth to polish the body, cultivate one's own bloodline and the true body of the ancestor of the witch clan, so as to cultivate physical supernatural powers and step into the power to prove the truth.

"Earthly evil and turbid air!" Li Xuanyang frowned. In the ancient times when the primitive world was first created, the clear air floated up and the turbid air sank down, merging with the earthly evil air and locating in the deepest part of the earth.

It is said that the Wu clan was born here and was born with a trace of the turbid energy of the earth, so they were able to use the turbid energy of the earth to polish their bodies and practice.

However, Qigong practitioners cannot use the evil energy of the earth to polish their bodies like the ancestor of the witch clan, and they do not have the bloodline or the true body of the ancestor of the witch clan.

The physical body and soul of a powerful master like Li Xuanyang are all extremely pure. Once contaminated by the turbid energy of the earth, not only will it be impossible to polish the physical body, it will even defile the soul and damage one's own foundation of Taoism.

"I don't know what means the Eight-Nine Profound Art, the protective technique of the Chan sect in previous lives, used to replace the evil spirits and polish the body for cultivation." Li Xuanyang thought about it and it was nothing more than using innate spiritual energy or other means to replace the evil spirits and eventually condense an effect similar to the true body of the ancestor witch.

Although the innate spiritual energy can replace the turbid air of the earth, the innate spiritual energy is derived from the pure air and is too mild. It is not suitable for polishing the body and is inferior to the turbid air of the earth.

As for other methods, he couldn't think of a better solution at the moment.

After decades of insights, Li Xuanyang has gained some understanding of the cultivation methods of the ancestor of the witch clan, not too much, not too little either. As long as he can find a way to replace the turbid air of the earthly evil, and refer to his own Taoist supernatural powers, he may be able to deduce a method of proving the Tao through force.

"If the innate spiritual energy doesn't work, do I have to use the innate spiritual fire?" Li Xuanyang thought about the innate spiritual fire. Using the innate yin and yang true fire or the innate Xuan Yang true fire to temper the body can certainly polish the physical body. The disadvantage is that the innate spiritual fire is very overbearing. Li Xuanyang knows it best. If you are not careful, the physical body will be damaged.

This is not the right thing to do, unless...

At this moment, a flash of inspiration came to Li Xuanyang, and he thought of the Chaos Spirit Spring on the side, and the wisps of chaotic energy that continuously emanated from the spring.

If this chaotic energy is used to replace the turbid energy of the earth, to condense the true body, and then to forge and polish it with the innate two-pole true fire.

For a moment, Li Xuanyang fell into a mysterious state. With his own Taoism and the practice method of the ancestors of the witch clan, he slowly deduced and comprehended a method of physical practice.

This method of cultivating the physical body is vaguely similar to the method of cultivation of the ancestor of the witch clan. It does not cultivate the primordial spirit, does not form the three flowers, and does not realize the great way. What is cultivated is the path of the physical body.

He inhaled and exhaled the chaotic energy, forged and polished his body with the innate two-pole true fire, and finally condensed a chaotic true body. He followed the method of proving the truth with force.

Together with the Xuan Yang Sutra in the body, one inside and one outside, one method and one force, they form a combination of internal and external cultivation.

Cultivate the spirit internally and the body externally.

In the ancient world, the method of proving the Tao with force is very rare. Except for the twelve ancestor witches and a group of great witches of the witch clan, whether it is the great saints of the demon clan such as Di Jun and Tai Yi, or the great masters of the Qigong lineage, they are all practicing the path of the soul and the great law.

Li Xuanyang got this opportunity and realized the method of achieving enlightenment through physical body, so he naturally planned to continue practicing.

However, unlike the Wu Clan, the Wu Clan only cultivates the physical body, while Li Xuanyang cultivates both the soul and the physical body, combining the inside and the outside, and the yin and yang coexisting.

Of course, the physical path is too difficult, and the hope of achieving enlightenment is slim.

However, the method of becoming a saint through merit is also extremely difficult. In later generations, only Nuwa was able to prove her truth by the merit of creating humans. The other saints all became saints by beheading the three corpses and establishing great religions. It can only be regarded as half beheading the three corpses and half proving her truth through merit.

Only Hongjun Daozu proved his Dao by using the Creation Disc to kill the three corpses.

The rest of the ancient masters with great supernatural powers, without the Hongmeng purple energy, could not attain enlightenment, so they could only turn to practicing the laws of the Great Dao in order to seek the Hunyuan Dao Fruit.

In addition, the method of physical cultivation that Li Xuanyang realized is also a method of achieving enlightenment.
