A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

Ye Fan felt a chill run down his spine and dared not be careless in the slightest. He concealed his aura, glanced at Lin Xiu's Daoist essence, and only after gaining some reassurance did he continue to explore deeper into the land.

........

After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the area suddenly opened up ahead.

It was a vast underground space. In the center of the space was a pool of water, as black as ink and bottomless. Scattered around the pool were many source blocks of varying sizes, the smallest being the size of a fist.

Ye Fan's eyes lit up, but he did not rush forward.

The more tempting something is in Zishan, the more dangerous it often is.

Sure enough, Ye Fan focused his attention and saw several corpses at the edge of the pool.

The bodies were well-preserved, with elastic skin, as if they were simply asleep.

But they showed no signs of life. Even more strangely, their expressions were serene, with smiles even playing on their lips.

Ye Fan felt a chill run down his spine. After thinking for a few seconds, he bypassed the pool and continued deeper into the water.

The deeper he went, the more bizarre the sights became.

There are stone chambers with stone beds, tables, and chairs, suggesting that someone once lived there. Ancient scriptures are carved on the cave walls, but the writing is now blurred. Torn banners are stuck in the ground, their surfaces weathered away, leaving only the flagpoles.

He also saw an altar, on which was enshrined a divine source. Sealed within the divine source was a woman, her face exquisitely beautiful, sleeping with her eyes closed. She wore ancient clothing, not of this era.

Ye Fan glanced at it once and quickly looked away.

Although the woman was sealed within the divine source, the pressure she exerted on him was greater than that of the elders of the Holy Land. She was at least at the level of a Saint.

Ye Fan only made a rough note before quickening his pace and leaving the area.

According to Lin Xiu's calculations, he would have to cross several dangerous places to meet Jiang Taixu.

Ye Fan mustered all his strength and continued forward.

However, behind him, Zishan was also constantly changing.

The array patterns in the passageways he had traversed automatically repaired themselves after he left, the footprints on the ground were smoothed out by an invisible force, and even the marks on the stone walls gradually disappeared.

In less than half an incense stick's time, the path he came from was restored to its original state... as if no one had ever walked it before.

........

After Ye Fan entered Purple Mountain, Lin Xiu leaned against the outer wall of Purple Mountain and began to cultivate alone.

The main subject of spiritual practice... is visions.

[These kinds of unusual phenomena didn't appear much in the later parts of the original story. Investing too much energy in cultivation in the early stages does seem somewhat counterproductive.]

However... to be precise, later on, cultivators integrated their understanding of "phenomena" into their cultivation techniques, making it unnecessary to rely solely on phenomena in combat.

However, for me, the vision seems to have other uses.

Lin Xiu closed his eyes and focused inward, his mind sinking into the space of Daoist energy.

Within the Daoist space, Lin Xiu's Daoist self sat cross-legged in the center of the void, surrounded by countless runes and Daoist energy. Each rune and Daoist energy represented a realization, a Dao.

At this moment, these Daoist auras are evolving in accordance with Lin Xiu's ideas, interacting with Lin Xiu's Daoist essence.

The main subject of evolution is still anomalies.

As soon as Lin Xiu had a thought, his Daoist essence began to manifest strange phenomena.

Behind him, the golden Tai Chi circle continued to rotate, with Taiyin and Taiyang, Shaoyin and Shaoyang, attracting and repelling each other, and a trace of chaotic energy was generated in the extreme rotation.

Within this chaotic energy, a blue lotus sprouted, bearing three leaves, swaying amidst the chaos—a wondrous phenomenon of a blue lotus born from chaos.

Immediately afterwards, the Chaos Green Lotus slowly bloomed, its body rising into the sky and opening up a world—a scene from the evolution of the Green Lotus Opening Heaven Diagram.

Immediately afterwards, golden lotuses bloomed amidst the surging waves of a golden sea of ​​bitterness.

Above the Sea of ​​Bitterness, the phantom of a Celestial King descends upon the Nine Heavens.

Beneath the Immortal King's feet unfolds a magnificent scroll of mountains and rivers...

Numerous unusual phenomena manifested simultaneously, illuminating the Daoist space with bizarre and wondrous light.

.......

Manifesting visions is only the first step.

What Lin Xiu really wanted to do was to integrate the strange phenomena into the Lesser Six Paths Reincarnation Fist.

Chapter 131 Strange Phenomena Forge Reincarnation (Second Update)

The Lesser Six Paths Reincarnation Fist is a product of Lin Xiu's own Daoist space evolving into the Six Paths Reincarnation.

The so-called six realms of reincarnation are not just a state, but a cycle. In theory, all things in the world are within the six realms of reincarnation.

In other words, everything in the world can become food for the growth of the six realms of reincarnation!

As Lin Xiu's understanding of the strange phenomena deepened, he developed entirely new uses for them.

That is to regard these unusual phenomena as "landmark nodes" in the evolution of the six realms of reincarnation!

The landmark node formed by the anomaly can not only help Lin Xiu anchor part of the true meaning of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but also help Lin Xiu's entire cycle of the Six Paths of Reincarnation to be smoother and more powerful.

Under Lin Xiu's control, within Lin Xiu's Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation, various phenomena and the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation influence each other. The phenomena are anchored within them, while the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation strengthens the true meaning of reincarnation through various special nodes.

Lin Xiu could sense that, besides the slight amplification he received from the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation, his understanding of the Dao contained within the strange phenomena was also deepening. He understood the Dao of Chaos and the Dao of Life and Death contained within the Chaos Lotus Seed; the Dao of Supreme Power and Domination contained within the Immortal King Descending to the Nine Heavens ......

Every unusual phenomenon is a manifestation of the Tao, a embodiment of a rule.

What Lin Xiu's Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation aims to do is to incorporate these different "paths" into a system that allows them to complement and verify each other!

........

Under Lin Xiu's control, the phantom of the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation continued to expand, completely enveloping all the previously manifested anomalies!

Dao Yun's true self roared and exerted all its strength to deduce, attempting to refine and integrate all these different and powerful phenomena, making them a part of the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation!

Lin Xiu's eyes gleamed. If he succeeded, his Lesser Six Paths Reincarnation Fist would break through its limitations and its power would surge!

[By the way! Speaking of unusual phenomena, there's one more thing worth trying!]

Next, Lin Xiu took out two drops of blood from Jiang Tingting and Jiang Caixuan. They were the original blood of the Taiyin Body and the blood of the Jiang family's female prodigy, which contained a portion of the Emperor's blood.

As before, Lin Xiu used the Blood-Character Ancient Talisman and the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to extract two wisps of chaotic energy from the two drops of blood.

After adding two wisps of chaotic energy to the Dao Rhyme Space, Lin Xiu then integrated a trace of the Taiyin Body's origin into the Dao Rhyme Essence.

The aura of my Daoist self began to change, taking on a hint of Yin energy.

Then, Lin Xiu used the power of the system to reclaim his double Holy Body physique, allowing his body to return to its most primal state.

To be precise, it is the most primordial state, which is then filled with a wisp of the primordial Yin.

.......

Within the Daoist space, Lin Xiu's sea of ​​suffering, his true Daoist self, began to change color.

The originally ordinary sea of ​​suffering was gradually covered with a layer of black light. As Lin Xiu gained enlightenment, the black light became thicker and thicker, and finally, it turned into a black color that devoured all light!

An ordinary sea of ​​suffering might still reflect a glimmer of light. But the sea of ​​suffering of a person with a Yin constitution will devour all light!

Above the black sea of ​​suffering, a crescent moon slowly rises.

The moon, radiating a cold, eerie light, caused the Great Dao to stagnate and the void to solidify wherever its light shone.

"A strange phenomenon of the Taiyin body... The Taiyin Ghost Moon!"

Lin Xiu was shaken.

He succeeded!

After merging himself with a trace of Jiang Tingting's Taiyin Body essence, he used this physique, which was similar to the Taiyin Body, to gain insight and successfully cultivated the unique phenomena of the Taiyin Body!

[That's right! To cultivate the unique phenomena of a certain constitution, one doesn't necessarily need to possess that constitution! I only integrated a portion of the Taiyin Body's essence, yet I have the tendency to cultivate the Taiyin Body's phenomena. This shows that a particular constitution isn't essential; as long as one possesses a portion of that constitution's essence and understanding, one can cultivate similar phenomena!]

Besides Ji Haoyue, there are many other powerful individuals who cultivate the extraordinary phenomenon of "the moon rising over the sea."

[The same goes for Ye Fan. Ye Fan originally didn't know the "Chaos Lotus" phenomenon; he only acquired it after nurturing the Azure Emperor's Heart!]

[Even I am in this situation! My constitution is different from the Azure Emperor's, and I am not his descendant. However, after consuming the roots of the Chaos Azure Lotus, I still cultivated the Chaos series of extraordinary phenomena!]

Lin Xiu was very excited.

Because he has found another way to amplify his "Small Six Paths Reincarnation Fist"!

Previously, he could only continuously throw scriptures and other things with Daoist energy into the Daoist space in order to evolve the true meaning of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Now, Lin Xiu can use the Devouring Heaven Demon Art and the Blood Word Ancient Talisman to transform part of his physique, and then cultivate the corresponding physique's extraordinary phenomena!

To draw an analogy, the situation is roughly as follows:

Scripture is like a natural ingredient with a rich flavor and original taste, but it requires advanced cooking skills.

The anomaly is the factory's pre-made ingredients. Although they are not exactly the original flavor, they do not require much cooking skill to make a decent dish!

Just do it!

Lin Xiu's Daoist essence immediately began a new experiment. He no longer relied solely on the Daoist rhyme of the scriptures, but mobilized all the newly comprehended Taiyin phenomena and the many phenomena he had previously cultivated. He made the Dao principles of these phenomena resonate with the true meaning of the scriptures already present in the Daoist space.

A miraculous change occurred; a certain attraction seemed to arise between the vision and the scriptures.

The golden light of the Immortal Bible and the majestic phantom of the Immortal King descending to the heavens approached each other, mutually confirming the true meaning of immortality and supreme power; the battle imprint left by the Great Accomplished Holy Body intertwined with the rich vitality of the Golden Sea of ​​Bitterness and the magnificent mountains and rivers, evolving into an even more magnificent Holy Body power; the true meaning of reincarnation of the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist was like a magnet, attracting all the phenomena and the Daoist rhymes of the scriptures to approach it, attempting to incorporate them into the system of reincarnation.

On the other hand, the Daoist principles of the Azure Emperor Scripture blended seamlessly with the Chaos Seed Azure Lotus and the Azure Lotus Heaven-Opening Diagram, permeating the air with chaotic energy and evolving into an even more profound Azure Emperor Dao. Other scriptures and similar phenomena also resonated and deepened in a similar way.

This resonance is not a simple addition, but rather a mutual stimulation and complement!

The scriptures provide a deeper level of philosophical support for the visions, while the visions reveal the mysteries of the scriptures in a more intuitive and powerful way.

Under the guidance of the Daoist self and the rule of the Lesser Six Paths of Reincarnation, they are evolving together towards a grander and more complex "Six Paths of Reincarnation"!

Throughout the entire Daoist space, the sounds of Dao resounded and the laws intertwined, as if the world was being created and the cycle of reincarnation was being redefined!

Outside, Lin Xiu, who was sitting cross-legged, sensed something. He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with a sharp light. Without any conscious effort, he naturally raised his hand and threw a punch into the void ahead!

"boom!"

There was no earth-shattering explosion, but the space in front of Lin Xiu's fist seemed to collapse!

A miniature, blurry phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation flashed by, instantly swallowing all light and sound in front of it.

The power and artistic conception of this punch far surpass any previous Lesser Six Paths Reincarnation Fist!
