From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"That's great! Can I learn it too?"

After understanding the concept of Qi cultivation, Parker shouted excitedly.

"No, you're too young."

Da Yu refused.

It wasn't that Parker lacked the talent for cultivating Qi, but rather that his temperament and experience were no different from those of an ordinary eleven or twelve-year-old child, making him too unconventional.

Where is Xiaoyu?

Although she can be childish and even occasionally argues with Parker about who is stronger, Chen Long or Bull Warrior, Chen Long is a "good" parent who often takes her to participate in various "exciting and thrilling" archaeological activities. What kind of storms haven't she seen?

Strong will!

Clear consciousness!

Even if they make mistakes, they will find ways to solve them on their own, and thus they can embark on the path of Qi cultivation.

"This is not fair!"

Parker was unhappy and sulked.

"This is my favorite doll, and I'm giving it to you now."

At this moment, Xiaoyu handed the super moose plushie to Parker.

After all, she already has a new idol:

Sun Wukong from Journey to the West!

And she owns more than one super moose plushie!

"Thank you, Xiaoyu."

Parker, true to his childlike nature, immediately went from worry to joy, took the Super Moose plush toy, pulled a Super Moose-shaped ballpoint pen from his pocket, and went to play on the sofa.

"Tsk tsk, kids are so easy to coax."

Xiaoyu pretended to be an adult, shaking her head slightly, which was quite amusing.

Chen Long had to admit that, age aside, Xiaoyu was indeed quite mature in some ways…

"There's one more thing."

Jiang Liu mimicked his father's catchphrase, pointing to the broken door, "Please fix the wall."

Chen Long, Little Snake, and Bull Warrior all looked at Da Yu simultaneously.

Dayu: "······"

In the blink of an eye.

Four days passed quietly.

Under Da Yu's guidance, Chen Long, Little Snake, and Bull Warrior opened their Ren and Du meridians and penetrated their nine orifices, truly sensing the power called "Qi" within their bodies!

All three of them possessed remarkable talent, especially Chen Long, whose innate abilities were comparable to Zhang Zhiwei's. After coming into contact with the Foundation Establishment Method, he mastered the Small Heavenly Circuit in just ten minutes and realized that Da Yu had not lied; Qi Refining was indeed a skill, not his father's magic.

Just mentioning my dad—

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

jingle!

As the doorbell rang, Lu Jin, Duanmu Ying, and their father and Tru pushed open the door and entered.

"Welcome to Old Man's Antique Shop."

Da Yu gave a formulaic smile.

"Ouch!"

Upon seeing Dayu, the old man clutched his head and exclaimed, "Little Yu! Did you use my magic to turn yourself into an adult? There's no way to undo this spell!"

“If it could be used in our area, I’m sure many parents would be willing to buy it,” Duanmu Ying said. Then Lu Jin glanced over and added, “I’m just stating the facts.”

Lu Jin shrugged and said, "Our weekly weather system has been broken. Even though the Earth itself is evolving, we don't know how long it will take to re-evolve the weekly weather system. If you want to make magic potions to sell as 'height-increasing drugs,' you should give up on that idea."

"Selling medicine? I want to research whether the ingredients in this potion recipe really work for increasing height," Duanmu Ying muttered.

"Dad, you're back!"

At this moment, Xiaoyu ran out from behind.

"Oh dear! Two little jades!" the old man exclaimed again.

resignedly.

After lowering her hands from her ears, Da Yu began to explain...

Lu Jin and Duanmu Ying suddenly realized, but even though they had already learned about the time traveler from Jiang Liu, they were still incredibly surprised when they actually met Xiaoyu from the "future".

When the concept of "time" is isolated under the influence of the weekly weather bureau, incredible "time travel" events can indeed occur.

Indeed.

It's unbelievable that they traveled to this alternate Earth with Jiang Liu using the Hetu and Luoshu diagrams, but in essence, it wasn't time travel; it was a crossing of spatial dimensions, no different from spatial teleportation, only involving the level of dimensional information...

But in the future, Xiaoyu will truly "transcend time"!

It can change the past, and even the future!

"You're back. How did things go?"

Jiang Liu came out from the back room and inquired about the Ghost Mask.

"I encountered three lizardmen, Rasu, Afen, and Zhou, and obtained Hanafuda cards and a purple mask from them."

Lu Jin described the general course of events, then took out a dark purple mask with horns from her bag.

"Among them, Rasu wore this mask, and his speed, strength, and stamina were greatly enhanced. His physique also resembled that of a ferocious dragon. My magnetic field was ineffective against him, and in close combat, he was only slightly weaker than me..."

Perhaps the fiery energy bestowed upon them by the demonic dragon fused with the demonic energy within the masks, resulting in some kind of transformation...

Furthermore, he can summon a Japanese ninja with extremely sharp claws, possessing incredible speed and claws capable of cutting through iron like mud...

Ultimately, Tru found the recipe for removing the mask on a playing card—silk—Dad made the potion, and I covered my hands with a magical spell, and only then was the mask removed!

Jiang Liu took it, opened his wisdom eye, and carefully observed it, saying, "Yin Qi, the dark will, it's not wrong to say that it represents the dark side of humanity."

"Jiang Liu, can you see any other special features of this mask besides its ability to summon the Shadow Legion?"

Seeing that Jiang Liu had obtained the mask, the old man ignored the questions about Dayu and Xiaoyu and rushed over to ask, wanting to learn the wisdom of the "immortal god".

Although Jiang Liu comes from another dimension, he is a hundred times more advanced than his father in cultivation!

"One Qi transforms into Yin and Yang—"

As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of Qi naturally appeared in front of Jiang Liu. In the process of turning, it transformed into one black and one white. The white Qi was extremely strong and yang, while the black Qi was extremely soft and yin. "The Qi of a living person, that is, the life force, has the attributes of yin and yang Qi."

In our world, in order to refine a bit of pure yang, ancient practitioners had to eliminate the yin qi within their qi. In this process, they would also discard all kinds of lewd and impure thoughts. Yin qi is also the master of the nine orifices. When combined with these thoughts and ideas, it will transform into nine insects.

By directly eliminating the Yin energy and the collection of all one's impure thoughts and ideas from the body, one can achieve a pure Yang body and a clear mind.

The form of this mask is very similar; both are used by practitioners to eliminate their own negative energy and impure thoughts in pursuit of truth.

In my realm, due to the severing of the connection between heaven and earth, unless there are special circumstances, slaying the nine insects would allow me to truly kill them and attain pure yang.

However, this realm is covered by the Zhou Qi Qi (a system of celestial energy). Practicing this method, by severing the Yin Qi and impure thoughts from the body, will result in the special circumstances of my realm—

That is, a ferocious beast was born.

After learning about "One Qi Transforms into Yin and Yang," the old man couldn't help but shudder. A possibility occurred to him, and he couldn't help but ask, "You mean, the Eight Great Demons are actually—"

"Yes, it is very likely that it is an individual formed by the eight people who cut off the Yin Qi of their nine orifices and the filth of their primordial spirit, namely He Xiangu, Zhang Guolao, Han Zhongli, Cao Guojiu, Tieguai Li, Lü Dongbin, Lan Caihe, and Han Xiangzi and merged together."

Jiang Liu's eyes were serious. "Gods are immortal and demons are indestructible, because Yin and Yang are one!"

Similarly, analyzing this mask, although the methods are different, there is no difference in essence. It's just that the Japanese mummy inside this mask is of a lower level compared to Shendu and the others…”

Information about the origins of the eight great demons has been "coded" within the Zhou Weather Bureau.

And now-

The river has been untangled!

# Chapter 830 The Nine Demonic Insects Theory (Part 2)

Why is the Ghost Mask considered inferior to the Eight Great Demons?

As the saying goes:

One side raises one person.

A true dragon cannot be raised in shallow water.

People who grow up in a narrow, disaster-prone, tiny place can only see the fleeting brilliance of life and are captivated by how to die amidst that splendor.

Jiang Liu was also able to determine with his discerning eye that the original owners of the Japanese mummies inside the ten masks had all died, but the evil spirits formed by the fusion of their yin energy and filthy thoughts were permanently preserved due to their "obsession".

Just like the vengeful spirit of the demon sword Hirumaru.

What is the obsession with the Ten Masks?

A person's appearance is determined by the earth. The ten samurai and generals born in Japan must have longed for war and conquest. Therefore, the thoughts and desires of the Japanese mummies born from their nine orifices must have been to conquer the whole world.

That is, ultimate darkness!

It drags everything into darkness, devours it, destroys it, and reduces it to nothingness.

Where are the Eight Immortals?

Born and raised in China, one can attain pure Yang Qi within oneself and, even if one removes the Yin Qi from the nine orifices of the body, one will not transform into a ghost or monster. One also understands the way of cultivation, and by taking advantage of the Qi of various places, one can take form and achieve the position of "Innate Sacred Being".

Every demon is selfish and self-serving, yet they ultimately pursue the path of domination—though the demons' rule is somewhat primitive and barbaric, it still bears the marks of civilization.

wisdom!

It sprouts within civilization!

"To put it simply, the bodies of the eight great demons were formed by taking the positions of the innate Bagua Qi formation within the entire Zhouqi Qi formation."
