Chapter 12: Refining Taiyin True Fire
Zhen Yuanzi said, "My fellow Taoists, although the name of Taoist Pan Wang offends the great god Pangu, he is not a very evil person. If you want to look for him, please consider my kindness and don't make things difficult for him."
Upon hearing this, the anger of the ancient witches subsided a little, and they thought that for the sake of Zhen Yuanzi, they would not make things too difficult for King Pan.
Zhen Yuanzi then smiled and said, "That's very good. Otherwise, if my words caused fellow Daoist Pan Wang to suffer, it would all be my fault."
Fearing that the ancient witches did not understand the power of Pan Wang's Gu Shu, Zhen Yuanzi explained some of the powerful aspects of Pan Wang's Gu Shu.
The Gu technique is to use all the insects in the world as Gu, and drive the Gu insects to perform the magic! However, this insect is not just an insect in the general sense, but refers to the world. As long as it can move, it can be an insect. It is divided into five categories, namely, scales, hair, feathers, and insects, and all of them can be Gu.
He even tried to discuss Taoism with Zhen Yuanzi, and told him that if he could go one step further, not only movable objects, but even immovable objects, such as plants, rocks, etc., could be refined into Gu.
All living things in this world are insects. They are parasites on the world and absorb the essence of heaven and earth. Therefore, the way of Gu is also the righteous way of heaven and earth. It can encompass everything and transform all living things into Gu.
The ancestor witches were also shocked when they heard this. Emperor Jiang said, "This Taoist is also very wise. We must treat him with respect."
After a ginseng fruit banquet.
Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi traveled together, left the Wu clan, and returned to Wanshou Mountain.
Along the way, the two were still communicating. Zhen Yuanzi said, "During my travels this time, I have traveled almost all over the Eastern land and met many Taoist friends with high cultivation. Among them, there are three people who I cannot mention in the Wu clan, but I want to tell you about them separately."
"Oh? Who are those three?"
"These three are also the authentic descendants of Pangu, but they are not transformed from essence and blood, but bred by the soul of the great god Pangu. Therefore, they are called the Three Pure Ones. They are like the Wu clan, one is good at the physical body, and the other is good at the soul."
Zhen Yuanzi said to Hongyun: "The Three Pure Ones are Taiqing, Yuqing and Shangqing. The elder is called Laozi, the next is Yuanshi, and the third is Tongtian."
"They live in the east of Kunlun Mountain and have a cave. I will introduce them to you in the future."
Although Hongyun knew about the Three Pure Ones long ago, he didn't want to offend Zhen Yuanzi. At the same time, he also wanted to meet and make friends with the Three Pure Ones.
After all, the Three Pure Ones are the future saints of heaven, a certainty, which is much better than Hongyun, whose future is uncertain.
So Hong Yun asked, "I wonder what's so powerful about these Three Pure Ones?"
"Since they are the authentic Pangu, they naturally inherited Pangu's legacy. Therefore, the three of them are blessed with great fortune and high cultivation. Each of them is better than me and is on par with you. In addition, Taiqing Laozi is good at refining pills, Yuqing Yuanshi is good at refining weapons, and Shangqing Tongtian likes to practice formations. They really should not be underestimated."
Zhen Yuanzi sighed and said, "Besides this, there is another thing. That Taiqing Laozi also has a companion treasure, which is another treasure of merit and virtue that originated from the same source as your Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Linglong Pagoda."
"This pagoda is different from your Heavenly Ruler. It is said that one will be invincible if standing on the top. This shows how strong its defense is. It is even better than my Earth Book."
"Ah."
Hong Yun nodded, but smiled and said: "But brother, don't underestimate yourself. Although your Earth Book is only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, when its power is truly unleashed, the difference between it and a supreme treasure will not be that big."
Zhen Yuanzi shook his head and said nothing. The two brothers quickly returned to Wanshou Mountain.
"I want to continue refining the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, so I'll go into seclusion first. You can talk to me after I come out. By the way, if the ginseng fruit is ripe, you have to save some for me." Hongyun said.
Zhen Yuanzi laughed unhappily and said, "Go away, go away. How can I do without you if you are here?"
Hongyun went into seclusion.
However, when Hong Yun was in seclusion, he did not first sacrifice the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, but took out a small fire. This fire was the reward he got for choosing to tell Hou Tu about the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.
The spark of the Taiyin True Fire, one of the ten great divine fires in the ancient times.
As Hong Yun took out the Taiyin True Fire, all of a sudden, the palace where Hong Yun was located, with the Taiyin True Fire as the center, was visible to the naked eye, and even the void seemed to be gradually condensing.
Clusters of ice crystals, with Hongyun as the center, continued to spread out in all directions. However, this palace had already been set up with a formation by Hongyun.
Although there was a lot of cold air in the palace, it was unable to penetrate the formation and affect the outside world.
The reason for this is because the divine fire in Hongyun's hand, Taiyin, means the most terrifying cold.
Because of this, this Taiyin True Fire, although it is fire, is not hot, but rather extremely cold.
It can freeze everything, especially the intangible spiritual entities such as the spirit and soul, and it is more lethal.
The ten great divine fires of the ancient times: the Sun True Fire, the Nanming Li Fire, the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire, the Red Lotus Karma Fire, the Nirvana Fire, the Netherworld Ghost Fire, the Samadhi True Fire, the Six Ding Divine Fire, and the Taiyin True Fire.
names not listed in order.
Moreover, Hong Yun felt that the so-called ten divine fires were not very reliable. As far as he knew, there were many other divine fires that were actually no worse than any of the ten divine fires.
For example, the fire in the Eight Scenery Palace Lantern of Taiqing Laozi is called the Burning Sky Purple Fire, and it has the ability to burn the sky and boil the sea like the true fire of the sun.
For example, there is Yuqing Yuanshi's Yuxu Colored Glass Lamp, among which the Wanling Ancient Yi is no worse than any other divine fire.
But no matter what, this Taiyin True Fire does have its unique features and represents the ultimate flame of yin.
"This fire is best at killing souls and spirits, but on the other hand, it is also the most suitable treasure for tempering the spirit. I am the spirit of the Four Symbols, so I can bear it. I will use this fire to temper my spirit!"
A thought flashed through Hong Yun's mind, and he no longer hesitated, sending the fire of Taiyin True Fire into his sea of consciousness.
The fire floated into Hongyun's brows. After a while, Hongyun groaned, and his entire body suddenly turned into an ice sculpture starting from his head, in just a few breaths.
Of course, this is not because Hong Yun could not withstand the Taiyin True Fire and was frozen by the Taiyin True Fire.
It was just that when the Taiyin True Fire was absorbed into the Yuan Shen, a trace of cold air escaped, which led to this situation.
After the Taiyin True Fire was absorbed into his primordial spirit, Hong Yun began to temper his primordial spirit with the extremely cold power of the True Fire.
However, this Taiyin True Fire is just a small spark and its power is still not enough, in order to strengthen this Taiyin True Fire.
Hongyun even used his own cultivation to help it grow stronger.
In this way, with the accumulation of time, Hong Yun's soul has completely adapted to this extreme cold force under the tempering of the Taiyin True Fire.
Even through the Taiyin True Fire, Hongyun also comprehended many mysteries about the Taiyin Way.
The Taiyin True Fire was also successfully controlled by Hong Yun, and even turned into a magical power of Hong Yun.
