Chapter 1748: Spirits of the Five Viscera
……
Meanwhile, Lin Xun and A’hu traversed a vast dusky land several thousand miles from Mount Kunlun.
Lin Xun studied the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic while A’hu observed the scenery.
They walked at a leisurely pace as if they were strolling through a garden, creating a picture of comfort and ease.
Hmm?
Suddenly, A’hu noticed Lin Xun’s aura quietly changing. It felt like a spring breeze was swirling around him, exuding a warm and clean sensation.
His eyes were filled with a profound and mysterious glow as if he was immersed in the wonders of the world, unable to pull himself out.
Had he achieved enlightenment?A’hu couldn't help but gasp.
The more she interacted with Lin Xun, the more she realized how incredibly talented he was in the pursuit of the dao.
To make things even more frightening, Lin Xun never slacked off. He was always working hard even while no one was watching.
As the saying went, the scariest people were those who continued to work harder than you even though they were already ahead. Didn’t this perfectly describe someone like him?
A’hu couldn't help inwardly sigh as she slowed down her pace.
Enlightenment was extremely difficult to come by and she didn’t want to ruin this rare opportunity for Lin Xun.
……
Lin Xun's mind was completely emptied of everything else as he immersed himself in the various profound truths of the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic.
The classic embodied Ninth Senior Brother Ge Yupu's cultivation; an expert who was strong enough to subdue the strongest of the Primeval Seven Demon-Beast Emperors!
It was an inheritance worthy of being called an Emperor Dao Sacred Scripture.
In Lin Xun’s body, his five viscera began to light up in succession, glowing green, red, yellow, white, and black.
The five viscera, which consisted of the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, were viewed as the ‘five viscera spirits.’
The eastern wood element first and second heavenly stems belong to the liver and are signified by the color green. When the vigorous liver energy is clear and lengthy, the Six Barns produces the Three Luminaries (light from the sun, moon, and stars); the five-colored cloud mixes with the green, allowing one to achieve the internal view.
This was the liver spirit acupoint cultivation method described in the Yellow Court Classic.
The southern fire element third and fourth heavenly stems belong to the heart and are signified by the color red. The heart is the king of the body’s five storages; one’s actions speak of one’s conduct and morality; the daylight is bright and the night light is hidden; the regulation of yin and yang is done through one’s essence.
This was the cultivation method of the heart spirit acupoint.
The central earth element fifth and sixth heavenly stems belong to the spleen and are signified by the color yellow. The spleen occupies the center palace and stores one’s thoughts and spirit; the introspect of one’s inner conscience will naturally lead to the harmony of spirit and soul.
The western metal element seventh and eighth heavenly stems belong to the lungs and are signified by the color white. The lungs are like an umbrella and the cover is the metal palace...
The northern water element ninth and tenth heavenly stems belong to the kidney and are represented by the color black. The kidney resembles the extreme north and transforms into the water palace...
The Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic expounded the profound truth of ‘Being the center above the grand dao,’ and its foundation was built upon tempering the five viscera spirits!
At the highest level of mastery, one’s five viscera would shine with divine light that could pierce the heavens and wield their own cultivation as if they were individual entities.
In battle, the five viscera spirits could manifest in the form of five bodies.
In the Dao War of Emperors, the Yellow Court Emperor, Ge Yupu, split into five bodies. Each body wielded unparalleled might that slaughtered his enemies, drenching the Ancient Nebula Road in blood!
After cultivating the five viscera spirits, it would be as if one’s physical form was endowed with the secrets of the Five Aggregates, the mysteries of the five elements, the wonders of the five flavors, and the body of the five virtues!
This was the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic, a supreme dao scripture created by Ge Yupu with the five viscera spirits as its foundation.
The five bodies forged through it were called the Five Virtues Dharma Bodies!
……
Amidst Lin Xun’s roaring vital energy, five-colored lights flowed across his five viscera and washed over the five dao palaces of his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.
Vital energy gushed out from the dao palaces as mysterious light rose like steam. In each dao palace, indistinct figures were slowly materializing.
"Green wood represents life force; open the life door to attain the virtue of wood..."
Various mysterious and cryptic insights rose in Lin Xun's mind.
It dawned upon him that while the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic focused on tempering the five viscera spirits, it also contained aspects of physical, qi, and spirit cultivation.
These were the three ways to the supreme!
However, the supreme path Ninth Senior Brother Ge Yupu sought was based on the five viscera to create a perfect and endlessly propagating cycle similar to the harmony of the five elements.
It was obviously different from the path Lin Xun sought.
Despite this, the profound knowledge of the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic was still a huge eye-opener for Lin Xun and filled him with enlightenment.
These enlightenments allowed Lin Xun to gain a deeper understanding of the dao, enabling his cultivation to improve accordingly!
Subsequently, Lin Xun learned that the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic was roughly categorized into four greater stages.
The Five Aggregates Stage, the Five Colors Stage, the Five Flavors Stage, and the Five Virtues Stage!
With Lin Xun’s peak Big Saint Stage cultivation, he easily reached the Five Aggregates Stage and began to accumulate wisps of Dao Palace True Spirits in his five viscera.
These Dao Palace True Spirits were akin to faint and indistinct incorporeal bodies that glowed green, red, yellow, white, and black.
When he reached the Five Colors Stage, these five True Spirits would gradually materialize and attain their ‘colors.’ For example, the Green Wood True Spirit would attain the color of ‘eternal green and everlasting vitality.’
Upon reaching the Five Flavors Stage, the five True Spirits would gain their ‘flavors,’ which was similar to the individuality of a person.
Finally, the Five Virtues Stage signified gaining their own wills and cultivation!
At this stage, the five viscera spirits could be tempered and transformed into five Dharma Bodies. Each body’s cultivation would be no weaker than the main body’s and they would also possess unique powers and abilities.
Lin Xun ruminated, "My dharma art is based on the Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer and the Great Dao Furnace Art. It can contain all daos under the heavens and derive all laws of the world. If I manage to meld the five viscera spirits into a single furnace, it will surely bring about a revolutionary transformation in my dao and dharma..."
However, he also understood that several of his inheritances such as the Taixuan Sword Scripture and the Great Endless Devour Scripture were still beyond his ability to integrate for now.
The same was true for the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic.
It was also then that Lin Xun properly realized how powerful his seemingly dull-witted Ninth Senior Brother Ge Yupu was.
The Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic alone would make him stand out in all of eternity!
Phew~
While walking, Lin Xun awoke from his peculiar state of enlightenment. He deeply exhaled and looked around at the dark and gloomy land.
Internally, his heart remained tranquil and clear.
Meanwhile, his aura naturally transcended as if breaking free from invisible shackles, producing a roar as his clothes fluttered around him.
Power surged around and throughout him like a tsunami as his presence continued to rise like a streak of light soaring upwards into infinity.
Advanced Supreme Big Saint Stage!
The previous cultivation breakthrough had occurred in the Peach Utopia Secret Realm. In other words, he had achieved another breakthrough in less than a month!
This was the power of opportunity.
If it weren’t for the trip to the Kunlun Dominion, it would have been impossible to experience such rapid progress in the Big Saint Stage.
A’hu, who had been closely watching since the start, felt her heart churn when she saw Lin Xun easily achieve a breakthrough while strolling.
It was as if everything incredible became ordinary and expected when it happened to Lin Xun.
A’hu smiled and congratulated, "Congratulations on your breakthrough, Brother Lin."
Lin Xun sighed emotionally and said, "A single peach was worth ten years of hard work. That period of enlightenment is no less than a gift from the heavens. I didn’t expect to experience a breakthrough now either."
The duo conversed as they walked.
Soon, a mountain appeared in the distance. It seemed to reach past the skies and fill the universe, exuding a presence of impossible vastness!
Even from such a distance away, they couldn’t help but feel insignificant in the face of its presence.
The mountain was so majestic that they couldn’t believe it existed.
A’hu’s eyes shone as she softly uttered, "Mount Kunlun!"
Meanwhile, the strand in Lin Xun's hand fell silent. There was no longer any movement from the horsetail whisk strand that had guided the duo all this time.
Lin Xun carefully put away the treasure. A hint of murderous intent flowed out in his eyes as he said, "Time to go and meet our old friend."
A’hu chuckled and said, "Let’s go!"
……
In front of Mount Kunlun.
The experts from the Six Great Dao Courts and Great Ten Battle Clans were still waiting.
The Grand Dao Flood covering Mount Kunlun had almost fully receded, which left many of them itching to move.
Dressed in a black robe and holding the Skycutter Blade, Tang Su suddenly muttered, "There’s still no news about Lin Xun after so many days. Could he really be dead?"
Her comment immediately drew strange looks from many people nearby.
They knew Tang Su was obsessed with Lin Xun because she desired to fight him.
That was all.
This was how the woman known as the Blade Maniac had always been. She never cared about anything else and only fighting existed in her eyes.
"Miss Tang Su, I’ve said many times that Lin Xun is dead."
Meng Yi felt a sense of helplessness.
This wasn’t the first time Tang Su had brought up Lin Xun over the past few days, which left him utterly speechless. Was a dead person worth so much concern?
Tang Su nonchalantly replied, "Is that so?"
The corners of Meng Yi's lips twitched. He could no longer be bothered to explain and said, "Lin Xun is dead whether you believe it or not. I declared a few days ago that if Lin Xun is still alive, then I, Meng Yi, will commit suicide by slitting my throat!"
His words resonated with absolute belief.
The expressions of Sha Liuqing and Ku Du, who were still hiding nearby, darkened as their hatred toward Meng Yi intensified.
At this moment, a calm voice suddenly rang out from afar, "Is that so? Then you can go ahead and commit suicide."
Numerous people looked over in surprise only to be stupefied when they saw the figure approaching from far away.
How is it him!?
Meanwhile, Meng Yi looked as if he had been struck by lightning. Why did that voice...sound so familiar?
He instinctively turned his head to find the owner of the voice.
