Chapter 83: The Eight Trigrams and the Dao Signs

Chapter 83: The Innate Eight Diagrams and Dao Marks

Han Yi's understanding of the great principles of heaven and earth is naturally not as good as that of Fuxi, the great master, but there was no disdainful expression on Fuxi's face.

instead……

The other party was listening with great interest, and casually sketched out a series of Bagua diagrams in the air, just like a good student who was taking notes seriously.

This scene is naturally strange no matter how you look at it.

It's like...

Putting the cart before the horse!
The creation of the innate Bagua originated from the chaotic Tai Chi. It has no shape, form or position. It is just the one qi that is born, and the yin and yang are added in sequence, naturally creating the numbers from one to eight. Therefore, it is called "innate". It is the natural way of heaven and earth. The sky is above, the earth is below, the sun rises from the east, and the moon rises from the west, explaining the mysteries of yin and yang of heaven and earth.

At the summer solstice, yang ends and yin is born, and at the winter solstice, yin ends and yang is born.

Qian ends at noon and Kun ends at midnight, which are judged by the left and right of heaven and earth. The left is responsible for rising and the right is responsible for falling. When rising, the Yang is in the southeast and is responsible for the occurrence of spring and summer, corresponding to the gradual growth of people; when falling, the Yin is in the northwest and is responsible for the contraction of autumn and winter, corresponding to the gradual disappearance of people.

Li ends at the hour of Mao, and Kan ends at the hour of You, which means that Yin and Yang are divided into half and half, with the upper part being Yang and the lower part being Yin. For Yang, the sun rises at Mao and sets at You; for Yin, the moon rises at You and sets at Mao. This is the image of Yang ending and Yin being born, and Yin disappearing and Yang growing.

The core of the Post-natal Eight Trigrams is the transformation of Yin and Yang. The Emperor comes out of Zhen, meets in Xun, meets in Li, is led to service in Kun, speaks in Dui, fights in Qian, works in Kan, and accomplishes his words in Gen.

There is only one word difference between innate and acquired, but they are completely different. One emphasizes the opposition between yin and yang, and the end of yin and the birth of yang, while the other emphasizes the transformation of yin and yang to cover the infinite changes of all things in the world.

"I see!"

After a long time, Fuxi sighed softly, as if he had gained something, and said with a smile: "The innate leads the Zhoutian, which covers the changes of the yin and yang Zhoutian, and the acquired explains the innate, which is a step further than the innate Yishu. The superposition of the two can transform the eight trigrams into sixty-four trigrams."

"Wonderful!"

Fuxi clapped his hands in admiration, then changed the subject and said, "My friend! I have gained a little from observing the Eight Diagrams of the Later Heaven. I found that it is not the limit of Yishu. It is a bit of a waste to only use it for fighting in the military formation! My friend, why don't you push the Eight Diagrams of the Later Heaven one step further and turn it into a source of Dao!"

Han Yi was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Fuxi was indeed a man of great supernatural powers. In just a moment, he deduced the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes from the changes of the Eight Trigrams.

But on the surface, he remained calm and said respectfully: "Please enlighten me, Emperor!"

The innate Eight Trigrams originated from the great way of heaven and earth and were summarized and perfected by Fuxi, while the acquired Eight Trigrams were performed by King Wen Ji Chang. However, they were not truly perfected until the birth of Ji Chang's fourth son, the future Duke of Zhou Ji Dan, that the innate and acquired were combined and, further, transformed into the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes.

In his previous life, after learning the Eight Trigrams from Ji Chang, he also studied it diligently and tried to deduce the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes.

pity……

With his understanding of Bagua, he failed to achieve this goal until the moment of his death.

However, it only took Emperor Fuxi a moment to see the changes after the Eight Trigrams.

have to say!

The gap between people is greater than the gap between people and dogs.

To gain enlightenment at a glance, in front of a person with great supernatural powers like Fuxi, it is as easy as eating and drinking.

With his level of cultivation, the chances of encountering a person as powerful as Fuxi were rare. Since the other party was willing to give him guidance, he lowered his attitude and asked seriously.

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Upon hearing this, Fuxi nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he began to perform a ritual, outlining the innate Bagua and the acquired Bagua from the void. The three hexagrams matched each other, explaining the mystery of the heaven, earth, void and all things.

……

"call!"

Han Yi woke up from his dream, covered in cold sweat, but his soul and mind were clearer than ever before, making him unable to help but let out a breath.

To be honest, he was still very nervous when he met Fuxi.

after all……

He once killed his father and relatives, and even turned his own brother into a flying zombie. There is no doubt that this was against human ethics and was unacceptable by morality.

With Fuxi's ability of deduction, calculating his past and the "evil deeds" he has done should be as easy as reading the lines on the palm of his hand.

However, Fuxi did not ask any additional questions throughout the whole process, as if he was simply discussing the Dao.

This made Han Yi a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask more questions.

He knew that in this situation, either someone had concealed the secret for him, making it impossible for Fuxi to calculate, or Fuxi did not care about such a small matter.

After thinking for a long time, he still felt that the former was more likely.

Because, in all the legends he had heard, Fuxi was a kind, filial and moral person. It was unlikely that he would look differently on Han Yi, an "evildoer" who violated human ethics and killed his father and relatives.

even if...

The Postnatal Eight Trigrams play a role beyond imagination in verifying oneself!
The other party did not take action, and teaching this villain a lesson was already a leniency in Han Yi's opinion!

As for preaching and performing, it is even more nonsense.

"law!"

Watching Fuxi perform the Tao this time can be said to have laid an extremely solid foundation for him. Deep in his soul, there are two opportunities left for him by Fuxi.

Innate Bagua!

Dao Mark! Although the former is just a simple imprint of the law and a trace of the Dao, the flow of the Dao essence and trace of the Xiantian Bagua has the possibility and foundation to evolve the world of Qiankun and create the endless Huazang era.

If he practices the way of earthly immortality, perhaps he can achieve his goal in one step, open up a blessed land, evolve a cave heaven, and upgrade it to a small thousand world.

The latter, however, is the coordinate of a vast world with endless opportunities.

According to Fuxi, that world was jointly opened up by him, Shennong and Xuanyuan. After he has attained the status of a celestial being and possessed his own infinite characteristics, he can use this symbol to project his own incarnation into that world to find opportunities to perfect his own Dao fruit.

If one unfortunately dies along the way, he can rely on that beacon to reincarnate into the world they have opened up and embark on the path of cultivation again.

These two opportunities may not be worth mentioning in Fuxi's own eyes, but in the eyes of the vast majority of creatures in the prehistoric world, they are long-awaited fortunes.

Precious!

Fuxi's behavior of caring for the younger generation like a senior made Han Yi flattered. He wanted to bow down to him, but considering his own abnormality, he chose to remain silent.

"The realm of refining emptiness and combining with the Tao is perfect, and it is right before my eyes!" Han Yi examined his own state and found that his cultivation had made great progress after observing Fuxi's painting of the sky. He couldn't help but think: "It would be a good choice to establish a relationship with the Three Emperors! After I become a celestial being, I will go to the world opened up by the Three Emperors to take a look! Unfortunately, the person behind the scenes is hiding deeper than I thought!"

Fuxi, the first of the Three Sovereigns, is definitely one of the most powerful people below the saints. Even if the other party only used his great magic power to create a dream and did not come in person, Fuxi could not detect any abnormality in him. The cultivation of the person behind the scenes must be extraordinary.

Of course, this is just Han Yi's guess.

It is also possible that Fuxi has already discovered the abnormality, but pretended not to know and planned to go fishing?
The thoughts of these powerful people are more difficult to guess than each other. Sometimes a chess piece dropped randomly can cause turmoil in the ancient world.

……

The Golden Spirit Mother and others came back, but the expressions on their faces showed that their plan to lure the snake out of its hole and kill the demon god Gu Diao had failed!

At the beginning, the plan went smoothly, and the demon god Gu Diao was successfully hooked because of the Bewitching Pearl.

but……

The demon god Gu Diao was able to survive the calamity between the witches and liches. His intelligence and means were all top-notch in the prehistoric world. After discovering that he had fallen into the trap of Jin Ling and others, he decisively blew up his true body as a demon. His soul instantly fled thousands of miles away, seeking the protection of Wuzhiqi, and almost severely injured Qiong Xiao.

Although the Demon God Gu Diao could not pose a threat to them for the time being due to the loss of its true body, they were still disappointed that they failed to completely keep it away.

If you beat the snake, you will not die, but you will be harmed by it.

The Golden Spirit Mother has always been decisive in killing, and she knows best the hidden dangers of this situation.

Therefore, his face was very gloomy.

And Qiong Xiao's expression was also not good.

If it weren't for the Golden Spirit Mother, who lent her the Four Symbols Tower for protection, if she had faced the demon god Gu Diao's self-destruction at close range, she would have been seriously injured if not killed.

Seeing this, Zhao Gongming comforted everyone and said, "Everyone, although we failed to kill the Gu Diao in this battle, we severely damaged it, which is enough for us to gain an advantage in the next battle! It's just a little accident, there's no need to be so disappointed! In the future, we will naturally find an opportunity to solve this hidden danger!"

After hearing this, everyone's expressions looked a little better.

……

On the other side, Wuzhiqi and others couldn't help but frowned when they saw the Gu Diao demon god, whose true body of the heavenly demon was gone and only the Daluo Yuanshen was left.

On their side, they have no advantage in terms of strength and magic weapons. If they were not relying on the Human King's appointment and not being suppressed by the Jiuzhou barrier, they would be no match at all.

Now, the Gu Diao has lost its magic weapon and even its physical body, which has undoubtedly made their current situation worse and will put them at a great disadvantage in the upcoming battles.

The demon god Gu Diao even wanted to retreat, and looked at everyone and said: "Everyone, it's not that I don't want to continue to work hard, but in my current state, plus I lost my magic weapon, I really have no strength to do it!"

Originally, Lugui promised him a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure and gave it to him to use in advance, so that he would feel that it was not a bad idea to take a little risk.

But now...

Not only was the innate spiritual treasure promised by Lugui taken away by Yunxiao with the Hunyuan Golden Bowl, but even his physical body, which had been cultivated for several epochs, chose to self-destruct in order to save his life.

I got the innate spiritual treasure and before I could even feel the warmth in my heart, in the blink of an eye, it turned into this situation.

How does he accept this?
Upon hearing this, Demon God Qingchou sneered and said sarcastically, "Daoist friend Gu Diao, if you hadn't acted on your own, how could you have ended up like this?"

"you!"

Gu Diao became furious upon hearing this.

Qingchou's words were undoubtedly like rubbing salt into his wounds.

If he hadn't lost his physical body and his strength had dropped drastically, he would have insisted on fighting Qingchou before he would give up.

"All right!"

Wuzhiqi rubbed his head when he saw this, and quickly advised: "Now is not the time for internal strife! Let's discuss how we should face the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others next... This is the right way!"

According to Di Jun's estimation, it would take more than a month for him to completely master Lugui Dao, so this period of time must be bought for him at all costs.

Therefore, Wuzhiqi is now having a headache looking at the people fighting among themselves.

Can……

These guys in front of him are all the help he can find at the moment!

He couldn't just sit back and watch them fight among themselves!
