To comprehend all laws and attain immortality

Chang Yuan's reminder reminded Gu Fan of what Li Chunyang had said earlier.

Since this place is the site of the Two Elements Hall trials, the test is naturally on the understanding of the principles of Yin and Yang.

Although he had the experience of "harmonizing yin and yang and gathering dragon and tiger" when he formed his core, the so-called yin and yang referred to magic power and divine consciousness, not the true yin and yang energies. He was only deceived by appearances because the change was too sudden.

The chilling gray-black smoke and the scorching light blue smoke perfectly embody the concepts of Yin and Yang.

Now that we've seen through it, the primary task is to reconcile the yin and yang, and the spiritual and malevolent forces.

Chang Yuan's ability to exhale large amounts of smoke is due to its inherent strength as a Refining Void Demon Lord, and also the divine effect of the Devouring Heaven Secret Technique, while Gu Fan can only rely on himself.

As Li Chunyang said, Gu Fan's understanding of Yin and Yang only grasped the form, not the spirit.

However, he had practiced the "Yin Yang Fire Separation Technique" and was able to refine the Samadhi True Fire into the Six Ding Divine Fire and the Six Jia Divine Fire according to the Yin Yang Civil and Martial methods, so he was not without foundation.

Having made up his mind, Gu Fan simply sat down cross-legged, focused his mind, gathered two strands of Yin and Yang spiritual energy, and carefully guided them to slowly make contact.

"Boom!"

A loud bang reached his ears, and Gu Fan's whole body trembled.

The first attempt, unsurprisingly, failed.

When the two spiritual energys touched, instead of diminishing their malevolent nature, they repelled each other and exploded. Fortunately, the spiritual energy that Gu Fan mobilized was extremely weak, so apart from a slight stinging sensation in his meridians, it had no major impact.

"Let's try again!" Gu Fan was not discouraged and quickly mobilized his spiritual energy for a second attempt.

Then came the third and fourth times.

Chang Yuan and the gourd used the Devouring Heaven Secret Technique to protect Gu Fan, allowing him to concentrate on his cultivation without being disturbed.

Gu Fan's consciousness gradually calmed down, ignoring everything around him, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the experiment.

The All-Seeing Eye of All Things quietly activated at some unknown time.

With each collision, Gu Fan could see wisps of pale gold lines appearing the instant the Yin and Yang spirits collided, only to disappear again in an instant.

"This is... the profound principle of heaven and earth contained within the Yin-Yang spiritual energy!"

Gu Fan's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

The transformed All-Seeing Eye is no longer limited to the Daoist texts of cultivation techniques and secret arts, but can briefly capture the profound principles of the universe.

Under this clear guidance, Gu Fan gradually adjusted the way the collision occurred, even immersing his divine sense in it, enduring the stinging pain in his divine sense during the collision, just to feel the mystery of the fusion of yin and yang.

I don't know how much time passed.

Gu Fan guided the Yin-Yang spiritual energy again, but this time the two did not explode. They were like two spiritual snakes entwined and grinding against each other, briefly merging and then suddenly separating. But in this extremely short moment, the opposing evil energy was annihilated. What separated was no longer two wisps of gray-black and light blue smoke, but two more solid, black-and-white spiritual lights.

"It's done!" Gu Fan grinned excitedly.

With a wave of his hand, even more Yin and Yang spirits surged into his palm.

The same scene reappeared, but it was even grander and more breathtaking.

Gu Fan took out two jade bottles and put the refined Yin-Yang spiritual energy into them, repeating the process over and over again.

......

A chilling wind howled through the canyon.

Gu Fan braved the strong winds and trudged on, his steps neither fast nor slow.

The Yin and Yang spirits surging from both sides of the canyon were drawn together by Gu Fan's divine sense and eroded each other before they even touched him, dissipating into pure spiritual energy and disappearing.

Gu Fan didn't know how long he had been in the canyon, but he was the last one to enter and didn't see anyone else throughout the entire journey.

The canyon was quite difficult for him, but not for cultivators of the Tai Chi lineage. Harmonizing Yin and Yang was a method they comprehended after embarking on cultivation, and Yin and Yang spiritual energy could even be refined into magical power for them.

Thinking of this, Gu Fan casually flicked out a flame, which spun and transformed into a Tai Chi diagram.

This was the very move that Li Chunyang used during the fire control contest that day.

"See you next time, and let's see if he dares to say that my Yin-Yang philosophy is all form and no spirit!"

Gu Fan gave a happy hum and stepped forward.

Chang Yuan quietly wrapped his arm around the gourd, while the gourd returned to its sleeping state in the spirit beast pouch.

It has consumed too much Yin and Yang spiritual energy and needs to digest it.

Half a day later, a white jade platform suddenly appeared in front of them, shrouded in a layer of light. The strong winds that blew against the light barrier were stopped.

Gu Fan's spirits lifted, and he quickened his pace toward the stone platform.

But as soon as they got closer, they saw that the stone platform was covered with scorch marks, and there was even a corpse broken in two, with blood splattered on the white ground, which was particularly glaring.

"Golden Core cultivator."

Gu Fan examined the corpse's face, searched his memory, and recognized it as a Golden Core cultivator from a noble family.

Looking at the center of the stone platform, there was a small, enclosed furnace. Even amidst the stench of blood, one could still smell the faint fragrance of elixirs.

"At least two people arrived here and fought over the elixir in the cauldron. Their attacks were clean and swift, showing no signs of intense combat, suggesting it was most likely a sneak attack by someone they knew."

Gu Fan analyzed the remaining traces.

The earlier you enter the canyon and the faster you move forward, the higher your chances of encountering an opportunity.

Looks like we need to speed things up!

With that thought in mind, Gu Fan didn't even linger on the stone platform, plunging back into the raging wind.

Gu Fan ran through the gale for three days straight.

The canyon was extremely long, and if it weren't for the slight change in the scenery, he would have even suspected that he was trapped inside.

Every half day, a stone platform would appear, with either an alchemical cauldron or a jade lotus platform on it. The lotus platform was empty, clearly indicating that the opportunity within had been taken away.

There were often traces of blood and fighting around the stone platform, but no more bodies were found.

After traveling for another half day, he thought that another stone platform would appear ahead, but to his surprise, there was nothing there.

The dark golden sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the barren land, drawing a clear straight line. The storm stopped abruptly, revealing a ten-zhang-high cloud platform.

There are two arrays on the cloud platform, one is pure white and the other is bright red.

"If we miss the opportunity at the Liangyi Hall, we may never encounter it again."

Gu Fan stepped into the crimson array without hesitation.

......

With a "plop".

Gu Fan plummeted from the sky, the wind whipping his robes.

After struggling and tumbling in the air a few times, Gu Fan suddenly leaped up and stood in mid-air.

Has the no-fly zone been lifted?

Gu Fan's face immediately lit up with joy.

Having long been accustomed to flying, he found it quite difficult to be prohibited from flying once he entered the Liangyi Hall.

Looking around, I was immediately startled again.

Above and below, all that could be seen was a dark, endless sea of ​​clouds, drifting slowly in the breeze, with only streaks of shimmering white light traveling through them, bringing light to this world.

Gu Fan was sandwiched in the middle, like a leaf floating on the surface of clear water. The water reflected the sky, and the scenery was completely the same. It was difficult to distinguish east from west, north from south, front from back, up from down.

Gu Fan frowned and fell downwards.

Like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, after a moment of obscuring the view, Gu Fan pierced through the sea of ​​clouds and looked down at his feet, only to find another sea of ​​clouds, as if his position had never changed.

"Senior, can you discern the mystery of this place?" Gu Fan asked Chang Yuan.

Chang Yuan lazily flicked his tongue, having absorbed more Yin-Yang spiritual energy than was in the gourd.

"I can't see much either. The space here seems a bit chaotic. Let's take another look."

Gu Fan nodded, and then fell downwards again.

Unexpectedly, he continued to fall, piercing through the clouds dozens of times, but never touched the ground. Above and below him were always two layers of hazy, gray clouds.

Gu Fan's face immediately darkened.

If we can't even find our way, won't we be trapped here and die?
