Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

Chapter 14 With good comprehension, all worries vanish.
The "Small Yin-Yang Method" is nothing more than the two words "Yin" and "Yang".

Su Ji swam in the ocean of yang energy for more than five hours, observing the process of sunlight transforming into yang energy, and thus gained some insights.

The power of the sun is extremely domineering; even living beings with physical bodies can be sunburned and killed, let alone celestial souls, spirits, or even physical souls.

It is for this reason that the vast majority of souls absorb the less dangerous Yin energy and become Yin spirits.

Because the celestial soul is formless and intangible, it can roam freely between heaven and earth.

The celestial soul and spirit are like a delicate newborn infant, only able to roam and leap in the ocean of yang energy, reaching a height of no more than ten feet, and usually only able to soar under the eaves.

If the sun's rays are intense, the ocean of yang energy will be even deeper, and the sunlight within it will be even more intense. The celestial soul and spirit may only be able to roam among the weeds.

As a result, after Su Jixiu developed his Heavenly Soul Spirit, he encountered some more troubles. In order to prevent his Heavenly Soul Spirit from being injured, he could only fly close to the ground when he was on patrol, and he also had to avoid humans, chickens, dogs and other living beings.

Fortunately, the problem only bothered him for one morning.

The Lesser Yin-Yang Method states: "The power of the sun descends from the sky, first combining with the weather to generate the yang energy of the sky, and then combining with the earth's energy to generate the yang energy of the earth."

The Earth God's explanation is simply that the initial sunlight contains various violent forces, which, after passing through the weather, become the sunlight, and then, after passing through the earth's energy, produce the sunlight and earth's yang energy that we encounter daily.

By practicing the "Minor Yin-Yang Method," one will know that the key to reducing the influence of sunlight and even the sun's rays lies in "earth energy."

However, if the celestial soul simply absorbs the earth's energy, it might only need a few dozen breaths to use it up when the sunlight is intense. It can't possibly replenish the earth's energy every now and then.

The power of the Sun-Wandering Spirit Weapon is itself a force and cannot block the sunlight; otherwise, it wouldn't be patrolling close to the ground at noon.

Fortunately, the earth's yang energy contained in the day-traveling spirit weapon was not useless.

Based on the principles of reflection and refraction of objects such as water and glass, Su Ji used the earth's yang energy as a medium and, through subtle adjustments, created a solar vacuum zone. As long as the celestial soul and spirit are within it, they will remain unharmed.

During this process, Su Ji did not rely on the calculations of the Heavenly Calculation, and it only took him four or five hours.

He didn't find it boring or tiring; being able to accomplish something on his own was a very rewarding thing.

Su Ji spoke eloquently, and unconsciously gained more confidence.

In fact, Su Ji had been somewhat hesitant ever since the local earth god said that the Dao of Dongxuan required both fate and enlightenment.

Although Yantianchou's performance has been somewhat unsatisfactory over the past year, as long as the computing power is sufficient, everything is not a problem.

However, no matter how strong one's skills are, there will be areas where one's abilities fall short, and one still has to rely on one's own understanding.

As Yan Tianchou just said, "He will either become an immortal within thirty years, or he will never become an immortal in his lifetime."

This statement sounds very profound, but it's actually just a bunch of nonsense.

Because, according to the calculations of the Heavenly Calculation, his toad body has a limited lifespan, and he can only live for a maximum of thirty years.

With a human body, one could at least live for sixty years if they tried hard enough, but with a toad body, that life is halved. How could Su Ji not be worried?
As a result, Su Ji insisted on relying solely on himself to solve the problem of sunlight, and in the end, he discovered that his comprehension was indeed quite good.

Comprehension, which sounds very abstract, is actually the ability to analyze and understand things. External things can only make people "know what it is", but only when they comprehend it themselves can they "know why it is".

Many people don't even have the chance to "know what it is," but Su Ji has the Earth God's commentary on the "Minor Yin-Yang Method" and the "Evolutionary Calculation" that can deduce all things.

"No matter how detailed the textbook is, only a small percentage of people can truly absorb it, and how many can get a perfect score?"

If Su Ji considered the path of cultivation as a learning experience from his previous life, he would have a renowned teacher, the local earth god, excellent teaching aids, and the Tianchou method. Coupled with the confidence he had just cultivated, his worries would have almost disappeared.

At this moment, Yan Tianchou suddenly asked, "Since the Earth God said that the profound energy is the principle and rule, and you have gained some understanding today, have you sensed the increase of the profound energy in your Heavenly Soul and Spirit?"

Su Ji was taken aback; he had indeed not noticed any changes in his Heavenly Soul.

After a moment's thought, he suddenly smiled as if struck by a flash of inspiration.

"The Earth God said that Xuan Qi is divided into 'existence' and 'non-existence'. Since the principle and rules are 'non-existence', how can I sense the changes in Xuan Qi?"
"In my view, the 'existence' of the mysterious can be called the mysterious energy; the 'non-existence' of the mysterious can be called the mysterious mystery."

"At this moment, although I only have this profound understanding in my heart, if I use this method to collect even purer earth yang energy, wouldn't that mean I 'have' it?"

"Cultivation is divided into cultivation level and realm. Cultivation level can be extended into magical power, and realm can be extended into principles. All things or heaven and earth are born from the great magical power of profound energy, and heaven and earth originate from profound principles and laws..."

"Now that I have comprehended the principles that have elevated my Heavenly Soul Realm, I intend to use this realm to enhance my magical power!"

The day-traveling spirit weapon is ultimately just a product of the divine path. The yang energy it absorbs contains a lot of earth energy and other impurities. If one wants to use it to increase their profound magical power, they still need to go through many steps to purify it.

Just as the primordial energy is most abundant at dawn and dusk, the yang energy of the earth must be most pure when it is first generated.

Without needing to perform divination, Su Ji knew that it was at this moment, in the air, at a certain distance from the ground.

It was just past noon, around 12:30 PM, and the blazing sun was shining down from the sky, so many people were taking their afternoon nap. Su Ji's patrol gradually increased in altitude from a few feet to several feet, and finally reached a height of nearly a hundred feet. Of course, he could risk going even higher, but he could no longer concern himself with his patrol duties.

Even so, the sunlight here has reached a certain limit, and ordinary cultivators with their Heavenly Soul and Spirit might not be able to withstand it for more than a few breaths.

The most dangerous thing is the fierce wind that blows from the heavens from time to time, which contains a certain amount of violent elements and will damage one's spirit if one comes into contact with it.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Calculation can not only maintain the "medium" of the earth's yang energy to refract the sunlight, but also sense the surrounding situation at all times and change its position in time to avoid the incoming yang energy.

Su Ji was relieved: "The upgrade really worked... the detection range of the three-foot square of the Heavenly Observation System has also become one-foot square!"

Large clusters of qi can be vaguely sensed by the Heavenly Soul, while smaller streams of qi can be detected by the Heavenly Calculation, which provides Su Ji with a safe environment for cultivation.

Soon, Su Ji's magical power increased rapidly, and his Heavenly Soul Spirit also showed clear and visible growth, like a sponge that had lost its water.

"This is indeed a good place for cultivation!"

Although the earth's yang energy here also contains impurities, it is much less than that on the ground.

Most importantly, impurities at higher elevations are far more active than those on the ground, making them easier to detect and remove.

A steady stream of magical power flowed in, and the visible progress gave Su Ji a sense of satisfaction far exceeding that of saving money.

It should be understood that this pure magical power not only strengthens the celestial soul and spirit, but also serves as a catalyst for mobilizing the yang energy of the earth when casting spells.

The portion of earth's yang energy absorbed at this time can be used as several portions when casting spells.

The reason why daytime spirit soldiers are so weak at night is precisely because the earth's yang energy is scarce at night...

For more than an hour, Su Ji was immersed in cultivating by absorbing the earth's yang energy, so the patrol mission was naturally handled by the upgraded Yan Tian Chou.

Su Ji managed to cultivate his profound skills and fulfill his duties without neglecting either, but the spirit soldiers of the Earth God Temple were all puzzled. They were surprised to find that the daytime spirit soldiers who had been patrolling several feet above the ground had disappeared.
Because of the sunlight in the high sky during the day, many cultivators' spiritual souls tried to sense the sky, but it was as if they were looking directly at the sun and could not see it clearly.

So much so that some spirit soldiers, not seeing the day-roaming spirit soldiers, thought something major had happened and hurriedly informed the local earth god.

The Earth God was, after all, a highly accomplished cultivator of the Cave Profound Realm. Upon learning the news, his exceptionally powerful Heavenly Soul searched all directions, and it took him quite a while to sense the location of the Day-Wandering Spirit Soldier.

Even the local earth god was taken aback: "Nonsense! You shouldn't risk climbing to such a high place just for cultivation!"

Cultivation naturally carries risks. If one's spiritual essence dissipates, although it can be reconstituted through the Heavenly Soul, the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the more time it takes.

Perhaps Su Ji, who has just begun his cultivation, can rebuild his spiritual nature in just three or four days.

However, reuniting the spirit inevitably consumes the foundation of the Heavenly Soul. While one can find ways to compensate for a lack of profound energy, a decline in innate talent can be fatal.

"Alas!" the Earth God sighed.

He had received a gift that morning, so he couldn't just sit idly by and watch Su Ji act recklessly.

A beam of light shot up from the ground and quickly reached mid-air, immediately attracting the attention of many spiritual soldiers.

The toilet spirit soldier, who looked like a middle-aged woman, asked in confusion, "What is the Earth God trying to do?"

The old farmer-looking spirit soldier's expression shifted slightly: "Everyone says that the Day Wandering Spirit Soldier has disappeared. Could it be that the Earth God has already found him?"

The two guardian spirit soldiers exchanged a glance, and the young guardian spirit soldier said in shock, "Even I wouldn't dare to stay more than ten feet in the air for long. The Golden Toad has only just begun its cultivation, how dare it go to such a high place?"

However, things went far beyond the imagination of the many spirit soldiers. The Earth God continued to fly upwards, eventually reaching a height of eighty or ninety feet.

However, the Earth God flew slower and slower, and his expression changed from serious to shocked.

"The sunlight is everywhere here, so why does it disappear without a trace specifically where the golden toad is located?"

Even a high-ranking cultivator like the Earth God dares not expose his celestial soul and spirit to the sunlight. In order to prevent being harmed by the sunlight and the protective energy, he has to expend his magical power to resist.

However, compared to the consumption of these magical powers, the local earth god was more concerned about the strange phenomenon before him.

His magic also contains earth yang energy. He lost a lot of magic power in the last battle with the black tiger demon, and has not yet fully recovered.

To prevent his celestial soul from being harmed by the protective energy and the sunlight, and to use the power of the Earth Spirit to remove the earth energy from the earth's yang energy, he simply allowed himself to slowly recover on the ground.

"The Golden Toad said he had never been exposed to profound arts in his previous life. Could such a wonderful technique be something he just comprehended?"

The local deity found this conjecture incredibly fantastical, but it seemed there was no other possibility besides it.
