I forge immortality with spiritual treasures.

Chapter 93 The Dharma is Accomplished
Taiyao True Fire is made by taking the spiritual essence of Taiyao and refining it with the essence of Bing Fire.

However, this Taiyao spiritual essence exists only in the distant heavens and sun, and it is impossible for a cultivator to obtain it by relying on their own magical power.

Therefore, the Xuandu School took a different approach and created a unique method.

Within the inner world, a 'Dharma Aperture' is opened, and within this aperture, the divine image of the 'Sun Lord' is visualized. Through its great power, the spiritual essence of the celestial sun is drawn from the distant heavens…

To accomplish this, understanding the divine will of the Japanese Emperor is of paramount importance.

Without divine will, one cannot even visualize the image of the Sun God within the Dharma aperture, let alone use its great power to seize the spiritual essence of the Sun.

The purpose of the "Illustrated Scroll of the Divine Image of the Sun King" is precisely this.

It is unknown who copied this scroll, but it truly carries the divine will of the Japanese emperor and presents it vividly.

But this divine will is not eternal.

Once the scroll is opened, the divine meaning within it will begin to dissipate, so Ying Chan has no choice but to act urgently.

Even if you can't fully understand its profound meaning, you should still grasp some of its essence.

Otherwise, if the visualization fails, one will need to go to Chiming Mountain and request another divine portrait scroll... This will not only waste one's spiritual energy but will also inevitably slow down Yingchan's progress in cultivating magic.

As he observed and pondered, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Ying Chan's face.

He pondered for a moment, then closed the "Illustrated Scroll of the Divine Image of the Sun God," closed his eyes, and immersed his mind in the Heavenly Pearl.

"This……"

In a short while, Ying Chan's face showed a look of surprise.

Since he refined the Heavenly Pearl, he has developed the habit of using this treasure to observe all things, and this habit has not changed even after he has cultivated the Profound Light and gained the ability to see the world.

Just now, he also used the Tianzhu to observe the "Sun God Portrait Scroll", but he did not expect that in just a short time, the Tianzhu had already imprinted some of the divine meaning in it!
"The Heavenly Bead is a treasure for cultivation, a treasure of creation!"

Ying Chan laughed loudly: "Truly worthy of this name!"

With the help of the Heavenly Pearl, he no longer had any fear of failing to comprehend the divine will of the Sun Emperor.

Not only that, he was able to perfect this step! Within that magical aperture, he visualized a sun god with perfect divine will, which would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his cultivation of the Taiyao True Fire and even the Crimson Bright Taiyao Innate Divine Light.

Of course, hard work is still necessary to accomplish this.

Ying Chan quickly calmed his mind and opened the "Scroll of the Divine Image of the Sun God" again. He continued to imprint the divine meaning within it with the Heavenly Beads, and also constantly compared it with the scroll, beginning to observe, comprehend, and even try to visualize the divine image in his mind...

In this way, the days and months passed swiftly, and ten days flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it has been almost three months since Ying Chan joined the sect.

He cultivated his profound light in late summer. Now, as the seasons have passed, it should be nearing winter by now, but the sky in the immortal abode remains clear and bright.

This morning.

Ying Chan left the quiet room and climbed to the highest peak of Zhaoguang Mountain. He found a flat rock by the Heavenly Pool, sat down, and began to close his eyes to rest.

He did not absorb spiritual energy or increase his magical power, nor did he contemplate spells or practice them silently. He simply waited for time to pass until noon.

Ying Chan didn't need to look up; he could feel the yang energy between heaven and earth, so intense that it was extremely rich, and he knew that the sun had reached its zenith.

"The time has come."

A thought flashed through Ying Chan's mind, and without opening his eyes, he slowly raised both hands, one hand outstretched high, pointing straight to the sky, the other hand brought to his chest, forming a mudra. As he silently channeled his magic, a 'magic aperture' within his inner world shone brightly!
The so-called 'Dharma Aperture' refers to the extraordinary aperture that Xuan Guang cultivators create in their inner world, imitating the Xuan Aperture, to store true fire, true water, sword energy, or magical artifacts, rare treasures, and so on.

The key to this method should be revealed, which is naturally opened by the Taiyao True Fire.

If the light were reflected back at this moment, one could see a majestic and awe-inspiring deity sitting there, like the sun in the sky, ruling over heaven and earth!

This is precisely the divine image of the Sun God that Ying Chan contemplated.

He spent ten days finally comprehending the divine meaning perfectly, visualizing it within the Dharma aperture, just as if the "Scroll of the Divine Image of the Sun God" had been reproduced.

As he activated the magic, the divine image immediately resonated with the great sun in the sky.

"really……!"

When Master Nanzui taught the Taiyao True Fire Method, he had already said that if the divine intent of the Sun Lord that one visualizes is too shallow, it will be very difficult to seize the spiritual essence of Taiyao, and one will have to try again and again to possibly succeed.

On the contrary, when one's spiritual intentions are fully realized through contemplation, it becomes easy to grasp the spiritual essence of the sun.

As the divine image resonates with the heavens and the sun, a wondrous feeling arises, as if one is also forming a connection with the great sun.

This connection is mysterious and unpredictable, truly indescribable, transcending infinite space and distance—

A wisp of golden-red energy condensed and took shape within Yingchan's Dharma aperture.

This energy was extremely faint, not even comparable to one ten-thousandth of the spiritual energy that Ying Chan could absorb in a single thought.

However, this energy was also incredibly vast, like the purest and most refined solar energy, shining brightly.

Ying Chan knew without needing to distinguish that this must be the Taiyao Linghua.

The moment it appeared in the Yingchan Dharma Aperture, he felt a warm sensation all over his body, as if the light and heat of Taiyao Spiritual Essence had shone through the Dharma Aperture, causing the vitality deep within his body to be fully revitalized.

"As expected of the essence of the heavens and earth, it can not only transform into true fire that burns everything, but also revitalize all things..."

Ying Chan let out a soft sigh of relief.

Unfortunately, this radiant spiritual essence can only be obtained at noon, and it is extremely easy to dissipate. Once the connection between the divine image and the sun and moon is interrupted, it will begin to dissipate.

Therefore, Ying Chan only briefly experienced the profound mystery of Taiyao Linghua before immediately mobilizing it and beginning to refine it with the essence of Bing fire.

Bing fire is yang fire.

The so-called essence of Bing fire can be condensed by collecting the essence of the sun, and there are also wonderful secrets in the Taiyao True Fire Method.

Ying Chan had already absorbed enough of the essence of Bing Fire and stored it in his heart. He had also studied the method of refining true fire countless times and was now very skilled at it.

As soon as the essence of Taiyao Linghua and Binghuo (丙火) came together, an endless burst of fire energy erupted, instantly transforming the warm feeling on Ying Chan's body into a blazing heat.

However, Master Nanzuo had already said that during the cultivation of Taiyao True Fire, one would be constantly burned by the Great Sun True Fire, and Ying Chan was already prepared for this.

Besides, he had already experienced the agony of being burned alive on the road to Yangguan, so how could he be bothered by it again?

Ying Chan remained unmoved, but his mind was divided into two parts: on one hand, he circulated his magical power to control the fire energy around his body, and on the other hand, he maintained the incantation to refine the spiritual essence of the Bing Fire...

After an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light finally appeared in the magic aperture.
