To comprehend all laws and attain immortality

The stone tablet is about three zhang high and one zhang wide. It is made entirely of black stone, with scattered silver white spots visible on the surface.

"Thousand-star iron!" Gu Fan immediately identified the material of the stone tablet.

Thousand Star Iron is a superior material for refining weapons, and its quality is no less than that of Thunder Soul Stone.

An ordinary cultivator could obtain a piece the size of a fist, which would be enough to refine a natal magic weapon, but this stone tablet was carved from a single piece of Thousand Star Iron.

In the eyes of Gu Fan, a weapon refiner, it was far too extravagant.

Golden Taoist script floated on the stone tablet, densely covering the entire surface.

Gu Fan focused his gaze and saw that it was a cultivation technique called "The Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divine Evolution Chapter".

According to the "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divination Chapter", it is to emulate the time when heaven and earth were first created and yin and yang were not yet separated. Using one's own golden elixir as the foundation, one can guide the yin and yang energies in the body to return to the innate state, and then re-deduce and transform them to achieve the principle of controlling yin and yang, dominating birth and death, and freely harmonizing.

Unfortunately, the inscription on the stone tablet only outlines the general principles and does not provide specific methods of cultivation.

Even so, the value contained in the general principles is unimaginable!

Gu Fan turned his head and saw Su Nanzhi with eyes full of starlight, reading the inscription on the stone tablet, holding a jade slip in her hand, obviously taking notes.

Shaking his head, Gu Fan also took out a blank jade slip and made the same choice.

Just as Gu Fan finished recording, Su Nanzhi excitedly said, "Fellow Daoist, I have gained some understanding of this technique. May I practice here for a while? I feel that once I fully comprehend it, although I cannot completely solve the problem of Yin-Yang reversal, I can at least use more magical power!"

Gu Fan nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist, please go and comprehend it."

After saying this, Su Nanzhi simply sat down cross-legged in front of the stone tablet.

Gu Fan hid in the shadow of the stone tablet, holding the jade slip in his hand, immersing his divine sense in it.

The "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divine Evolution Chapter" is a cultivation method of the Taiji lineage. As a cultivator of the Creation lineage, Gu Fan naturally cannot cultivate it. Perhaps some secret techniques are not limited by lineage, but this has always been the case when it comes to cultivation methods.

The principles and doctrines contained in each cultivation method embody the will of the Dao Ancestor, making it impossible to cultivate multiple methods simultaneously.

However, this does not mean that the "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divine Evolution Chapter" is of no value to Gu Fan.

The general outline's mention of returning to the innate state and then re-deducing and transforming it reminded him of a secret technique he had mastered—the Spirit Forging Technique.

The Spirit Forging Technique uses seven array pivots to mobilize Yin and Yang and the Five Elements to create life, which is similar to the principles mentioned in the general outline.

"But this is merely a transformation; the reversal of the Five Elements principle remains unshaken."

"Moreover, I can't even use much of my magic power."

Gu Fan squinted, deep in thought: 'Unless... it's possible to fight using magic without using any magical power.'

Just then, a flash of inspiration struck Gu Fan.

"I actually know methods to fight without using magic!"

As Gu Fan pondered this, he took out a talisman from his Azure Lion Ring.

The talisman was blue-green and was a second-tier spiritual talisman—the Mountain-Suppressing Talisman.

The method he came up with was the talisman technique!

Since forming his core, Gu Fan has rarely used talismans, simply because the materials for drawing talismans are extremely rare.

While stationed at Falling Phoenix Valley, he did kill two third-tier demonic beasts, but the Taihao Profound Light was too explosive, destroying the most essential parts of their skin, leaving the remaining parts unusable.

The latest third-tier spirit talisman I drew is the Silent Flower Talisman, made from the molted skin of a gourd.

At this moment when the laws are reversed and it is difficult to use magic power, the talisman path becomes Gu Fan's best choice.

Gu Fan gently mobilized a wisp of his magic power; although his meridians were slightly sore, there was nothing seriously wrong.

The magical power was transferred into the talisman, and the talisman paper immediately shattered.

A phantom of a mountain peak rapidly coalesced, but before it could fully solidify, it suddenly shattered.

"really......"

Gu Fan sighed as expected.

The Zhenyue Talisman belongs to the Earth element. After the laws changed, it lost its weighty nature and naturally could no longer suppress.

Even if one could cast a spell using a talisman, it wouldn't achieve the intended effect.

Gu Fan took out another talisman and placed it before him, gazing at it intently in thought. "Would it be feasible to integrate it into the Dao of Talismans using the principle of returning to one's original nature?"

Among the cultivation techniques, alchemy, talisman, artifact, and array are the most special, because these four can all carry the Dao intent. The other techniques are much inferior, and most are just derivatives of these four techniques, or simply some kind of secret method.

For example, puppetry is a variant of the art of weaponry.

Brewing spiritual wine and cooking spiritual food are similar to alchemy.

As the foundation of the Way of Artifacts and the Way of Arrays, the Way of Talismans naturally has its profound aspects and is by no means as simple as replacing magic.

Many mysterious talismans possess effects that are difficult to achieve even with magic.

All techniques and secret arts are written in Taoist script, which is to convey the 'principle' of Taoist methods, while talismans are the 'application' of Taoist methods. There is a connection between principle and application.

What Gu Fan needs to do is find that point, comprehend the true meaning of the Daoist principles in the "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divine Evolution Chapter" into runes, and combine them into the spiritual talisman!

Thinking of this, Gu Fan slowly sat up, took out the jade slip and placed it on his forehead, immersing his mind in his divine sense.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, the text of the general outline of the "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Evolution of the Spirit" unfolded.

Gu Fan focused his mind and activated his Myriad Manifestations Dharma Eye, where he saw thousands upon thousands of golden Dao characters leaping and merging together, converging into a black and white interwoven rosy light.

The rosy clouds stretched out from one end to the other, twisting and swirling, reminding Gu Fan of a pattern from his past life.

Ouroboros.

It symbolizes infinity and cycles, self-renewal and eternal return.

This is the true meaning of the Daoist principles contained in the "Innate Two Elements Transformation and Divination Chapter".

Gu Fan stared intently at the endlessly spinning rays of light, using his divine sense as a brush to sketch them in the air.

He was trying to comprehend a rune from the true meaning of Taoism!

A rune that does not exist in the Lingxiao Sect's heritage!

Starting stroke, horizontal turn, vertical cut, return stroke, edge sealing... after a moment, a crooked rune takes shape.

Before Gu Fan could even feel happy, he saw the runes explode and shatter at the gentle arc.

Failed.

Undeterred, Gu Fan gazed at the rosy dawn and began to write again.

This time, he deliberately slowed down his writing and paused slightly at the turning point.

When the rune was completed, it lasted for less than a breath longer than the last time before collapsing amidst tremors.

Come again!

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, Gu Fan seemed to have lost his perception of time in the outside world, sketching runes again and again.

After trying hundreds of times, including one hundred and two hundred, Gu Fan still didn't stop.

He felt he was only one step away from success, but that one step seemed like an insurmountable chasm; a slight difference could lead to a completely different outcome.

Each time he drew a rune, it consumed his spiritual energy, but fortunately his spiritual energy was strong enough to withstand it.

After countless attempts, Gu Fan wrote down another rune.

Just as he was about to focus his divine sense and continue, thinking he would fail again, he saw that the rune was floating steadily in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Did it work?"

Gu Fan stared in disbelief at the runes before him, a surge of elation welling up inside him.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, the rune trembled slightly and suddenly shattered.

"No!" Gu Fan cried out in his heart.

A moment later, Gu Fan opened his eyes and rested for a while, panting heavily.

Turning around, Su Nanzhi was still sitting cross-legged in front of the stone tablet, contemplating the time. After calculating the time, she realized that less than two hours had passed.

"Again!" Gu Fan gritted his teeth and sank into his sea of ​​consciousness once more.
