Pure Yang!

Chapter 467 The Innate Spiritual Child of Dragon Tiger Mountain! The Mortal King's Linshui Mansion
Two days later.

Under a clear blue sky, the Yinjia treasure ship sailed at the confluence of the three rivers. The hazy water vapor shimmered in the sunlight, and in the distance, sandbars appeared, with small buildings standing tall.

Such a place is difficult for ordinary people to see, even if they pass by in a boat.

Such Taoist methods, without awakening the primordial spirit and relying solely on the five senses, ultimately result in a false combination of all phenomena, preventing one from seeing the true nature of the world.

Just like throughout history, countless blessed lands and even demons and monsters, though clearly existing above, remain unseen due to a lack of proper methods and circumstances.

"This water palace is quite interesting to build."

Standing at the bow of the ship, Zhang Fan looked into the distance. The sandbar where the small building was located seemed to have been meticulously crafted by someone. His primordial spirit sensed that its shape resembled a curled-up infant, just like the embryonic placenta residing in the womb.

"Brother Dao, you truly have discerning eyes."

Xu Jiuzhi walked up from behind, looking at the water mansion getting closer and closer in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Do you know the origin of this water mansion?"

"I know a little," Zhang Fan said casually.

A gentle river breeze caressed my face, bringing a slight chill.

"The Dragon-Tiger Great Law creates a water palace."

“That’s right.” Xu Jiuzhi nodded: “This water palace was built by the Zhang family of Longhu back then to welcome my third aunt.”

Here, Xu Jiuzhi did not mention the Southern Zhang lineage, but instead referred to it as the Dragon Tiger Zhang family, as if that lineage had long since become a taboo and could not be mentioned easily.

“This water palace is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, drawing inspiration from human design while transcending the mysteries of nature,” Xu Jiuzhi suddenly said.

“Taking inspiration from others, a divinely inspired being!?” Zhang Fan was deeply moved.

An invisible wave spread out from between his brows, and as he sensed the frequency of the water palace, it became increasingly clear in his perception.

The sandbar resembles the embryonic form of a placenta.

"Transformation into Dharma Form!?"

In Feng Shui, there is a method called "Transformation of Form and Image," which is to create the form of a Feng Shui pattern. Over time, it will acquire its image, and the meaning of the method will arise from within, gradually leading to spiritual connection.

The sandbar where the water palace was located was in the shape of a human, and like a newborn infant, having received the power of creation to bring life back to life.

Most importantly, the transformation of an infant is quite mysterious: the head is in the Qian position, the abdomen in the Kun position, the feet in the Zhen position, the hands in the Gen position, and so on. Each part of the human body corresponds to the position of the Eight Trigrams.

In addition, the waterways crisscross like the meridians of the human body, the rocks are like the muscles and bones of the human body, and the pavilions and towers correspond to the eight major organ systems of the human body, and are built in a staggered manner according to the yin and yang of the Bagua.

"Wonderful."

Zhang Fan found it increasingly unbelievable the more he looked at it.

The layout of this water palace is simply ingenious, reversing the principles of yin and yang.

Every blade of grass, every tree, every clod of earth, and every stone there holds incredible mysteries.

"It's ingenious! The person who built this water palace was not only a great master of Taoist cultivation, but also an expert in the arts of feng shui," Zhang Fan couldn't help but exclaim.

What is Feng Shui?

That is the flow and decay of the energy of heaven and earth.

For ordinary people, piling two stones in front of their own house will change the direction of the airflow, which is equivalent to changing the direction of the energy of heaven and earth. Even if it is weak, it is the most basic feng shui principle.

Similarly, if we consider the human body as the universe, muscles correspond to mountains, and meridians correspond to rivers, lakes, and seas...

Even the acupoints on the human body can correspond one-to-one with those in the natural world.

Acupoints are key points for the entry and exit of energy in the human body.

All acupoints named "Spring" are places with the most essence, qi, and body fluids, such as the Yongquan acupoint.

All acupoints with the name "Hai" are places where vital energy gathers, such as the Qihai acupoint.

All acupoints named "Gu" are located where two large muscles connect, such as the Yin Gu acupoint.

All acupoints named "Xi" are places where two small muscles connect, such as the Taixi acupoint.

……

Thus, acupoints in the human body are nodes for the entry and exit of energy, meridians are the pathways for the circulation of energy, and the five internal organs are the places where energy is stored and generated...

These can all correspond one-to-one with the natural world.

The unity of heaven and man is the pursuit of resonating and corresponding with the inner world and the outer world, thereby comprehending the true nature of the Great Dao.

This water palace is a miniature inner world of the human body. It not only has a human form, but also has muscles, bones, tendons and acupoints that can be matched one by one. So much so that the life force of the entire Tianjin enters into it and flows and perishes.

In other words, this water palace mobilized all the vitality of Tianjin to nurture that "fetus".

"Awesome."

Zhang Fan was increasingly alarmed as he looked at the water palace. He knew that it was built under the personal supervision of his grandfather, Zhang Tiansheng, sixty years ago.

How old was Zhang Tiansheng sixty years ago?
Even if they are older than Zhang Fan now, the difference is only slight.

At that time, he already possessed such methods!

No wonder Chenlong said that this second uncle was a monster rarely seen in the Zhang family of Longhu for a hundred years.

The Dragon-Tiger Grand Law ordered the construction of a water palace, yet it was nurtured by the energy of the Tianjin dragon vein—it was remarkably similar…

"Born of nature and nurtured by the earth!?" Zhang Fan murmured.

"It is said that Zhang Tian... the Zhang family built this water palace by referring to the secrets of the naturally born spiritual embryo," Xu Jiuzhi explained.

A naturally born spiritual embryo is extremely rare, even more so than the Pure Yang Limitless Realm.

Legend has it that there was once a naturally born spirit in Longhu Mountain.

Those are no longer human beings, born of heaven and earth, destined for great calamities. But once they are truly born into the mortal world, they are free from all taboos and have almost no weaknesses.

Heaven cannot kill him, Earth cannot punish him!
“That naturally formed spiritual embryo has been guarding Longhu Mountain for many, many years…” Xu Jiuzhi said solemnly.

"Eighty years ago, after the great calamity of the Taoist sect, the gates of Longhu Mountain were closed, the incense was passed on to another sect, and that naturally born spiritual embryo also disappeared without a trace."

"Some say He died in that great calamity, but others say..."

At this point, Xu Jiuzhi suddenly paused.

"Still alive?" Zhang Fan's heart stirred slightly, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Ah."

Xu Jiuzhi nodded and said, "I heard from the elders in my clan that the innate spirit embryo on Longhu Mountain is very likely still alive."

"What's the basis for this?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.

The Xu family is a pure Yang family. Since Xu Jiuzhi's elders said so, it must not be unfounded.

"You may not know."

Xu Jiuzhi hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Within the Dao Alliance General Headquarters, there is a separate, extremely mysterious department, directly under the command of the General Headquarters President..."

"The sole purpose of this organization is to find the naturally born spiritual embryo in Longhu Mountain."

At this point, Xu Jiuzhi lowered her gaze: "Think about it, if that naturally born spiritual embryo of Longhu Mountain really died, why would the Dao Alliance General Assembly still need to form such a separate department?"

"Even if we take a step back and assume the worst, the higher-ups cannot determine whether that naturally born spirit is alive or dead."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan seemed to be deep in thought.

He had heard the demon chief of Tongluo Mountain say that there were only two naturally born spirit embryos in this world, one in Baihe Temple and the other in Wuwei Gate.

This is an extremely delicate balance.

If the naturally born spirit of Longhu Mountain were still alive, then this balance would no longer exist.

"Here we are."

Just then, Xu Jiuzhi's voice rang out, pulling Zhang Fan back to reality.

……

In front of the nine-story building of the Water Mansion.

There were only nine seats in the huge square.

In other words, this treasure land of the Xu family can only accommodate a maximum of nine people at a time in a single day.

If there are too many people, then there will be a queue. At this moment, one of the nine prayer cushions in the square has already been occupied.

He was a young man, not particularly high in cultivation level, and his aura was somewhat weak. However, in this kind of place, he was able to easily enter a meditative state, and his primordial spirit emitted subtle fluctuations, constantly being nourished by the surrounding environment.

"Xu Jiuliu, you're back from Xiling Mountain?"

Just then, a soft laugh rang out in the square. Although it wasn't loud, it sounded rather jarring in the quiet environment.

Xu Jiuliu slowly opened his eyes, turned his head and saw two familiar figures walking over.

Xu Yinhe!
Xu Yindeng!
"I came back yesterday," Xu Jiuliu said in a cold tone.

He was the only male in the third branch of the family, but he was of average talent and was not ridiculed by his cousins. Therefore, he naturally did not have much enthusiasm for his cousins ​​from the second branch.

"Ninth Stream, did you use your sister's credit limit again?" Xu Yindeng teased.

"With your aptitude, it's a waste for you to spend all your time here. You might as well give that time to us brothers."

As she spoke, Xu Yindeng's smile deepened: "Why don't you go back and talk to your sister? If we have enough time, we can buy it."

"Buy? Can you even afford it? Save it to buy milk at home," Xu Jiuliu retorted.

"You dare talk to me like that? You deserve a beating, don't you?" Xu Yindeng's face turned cold as he shouted in a deep voice.

"Try touching me! If you can't kill me, you'll call me daddy."

Xu Jiuliu held his head high, looking like a rogue.

Xu Yindeng's eyes twitched. Although this little good-for-nothing was mediocre, he was, after all, the only male in the third branch of the family, and no one dared to really touch him.

"Coward, what's the use of being so awesome?" Xu Jiuliu glanced at him sideways: "You wouldn't even dare to kill me."

"You ride on the horse..."

"All right."

Just then, Xu Yinhe spoke up, raising his hand to interrupt their childish conversation.

“You’re not a child anymore, yet you’re still so reckless. You’re a disgrace to the Xu family,” Xu Yinhe said calmly.

Xu Jiuliu snorted coldly, but did not refute.

He wasn't born a reckless brat, but being born into the Xu family and being the only male heir of the third branch created a huge contrast between his status and his ordinary appearance, which shaped his current eccentric personality.

"Let's go, don't waste time," Xu Yinhe said calmly.

The two brothers can only stay here for two days.

"it is good."

Xu Yindeng grinned, took a step forward, turned around, and looked at Xu Jiuliu.

hum...

Suddenly, Xu Jiuliu straightened up as if frozen, then leaped high into the air, turned around, and landed headfirst.

boom……

A loud crash echoed across the square. Xu Jiuliu slammed his head into the ground, causing it to bleed profusely. He collapsed to the ground, letting out a series of pitiful screams.

"Ninth-rate guy, why are you banging your head on the ground like that?" Xu Yindeng stopped and laughed.

"You...you're the one controlling my primordial spirit?" Xu Jiuliu, ignoring his head injury, pointed at Xu Yindeng, his eyes bloodshot.

Xu Yinhe raised an eyebrow, glanced at his younger brother, but remained silent.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm standing right here, not moving an inch," Xu Yindeng said calmly, spreading his hands.

"You fucking tried to play dirty tricks on me."

Enraged, Xu Jiuliu moved swiftly and charged forward.

"No matter what, I'm still your cousin. You dare to lay a hand on me? Then don't blame me for teaching you a lesson on behalf of your sister."

Xu Yindeng's eyes lit up, and he revealed a cold smile. He flicked his finger, and a strong wind howled, like a sudden raging tide, which enveloped Xu Jiuliu.

Rumble…

Instantly, Xu Jiuliu lost his balance, swaying like a withered leaf in the wind, as a tremendous force rushed towards him.

hum...

Just then, a figure flashed and blocked his way. Then, the person raised his arm slightly, and a tremendous force surged forth, easily shattering the oncoming gust of wind.

"sister!"

When Xu Jiuliu saw the person who had arrived, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but exclaim.

"What trouble have you gotten yourself into again?"

Xu Jiuzhi frowned and couldn't help but scold her.

However, when she saw Xu Jiuliu's head covered in blood, a look of heartache welled up in her eyes.

"Let me see……"

"It's nothing, sis, it's a piece of cake." Xu Jiuliu raised his hand and casually wiped the blood from his head, not caring at all, but staring fiercely ahead.

"Sis, it wasn't me who caused the trouble, he provoked me."

As she spoke, Xu Jiuzhi turned around and looked at her, her beautiful face instantly turning cold.

"Sister Jiuzhi, it's been a long time." Xu Yindeng looked at Xu Jiuzhi's angry face and lost his previous casualness, smiling apologetically.

"I was just joking with that scoundrel."

"A joke? Is this how you joke?" Xu Jiuzhi said coldly.

"I didn't know that Jiuliu was so fragile, he didn't learn a single bit of the patriarch's skills," Xu Yindeng chuckled.

"As your older brother, I want to apologize."

As he spoke, Xu Yindeng looked at Xu Jiuliu and casually clasped his hands in greeting.

"If you injure someone, is an apology enough?" Xu Jiuzhi said coldly, "Then if I smash your head open now, would an apology be enough to settle things?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Jiuzhi took a step forward.

This action, however, caused Xu Yindeng's expression to change.

His strength is far inferior to that of the eldest daughter of the third wife in front of him.

"All right."

Just then, Xu Yinhe raised his hand and stood in front of Xu Yindeng.

“Jiuzhi, as the older sister, why are you still arguing with your younger brother?” Xu Yinhe shook his head and said.

"It's inevitable that children will bump into each other and get hurt when they're playing around."

"Are you taking sides?" Xu Jiuzhi said in a deep voice.

"If one day Jiuliu injures Yindeng, I will absolutely not utter a single word of nonsense," Xu Yinhe said calmly.

“Jiuzhi, if you’re not satisfied, then come at me. I, as your older brother, will take your hits.”

Xu Yinhe's words exuded a confident and dignified air.

“You…” Xu Jiuzhi gritted her teeth.

Xu Yinhe was at the Great Master realm, and his cultivation was much higher than hers. If they were to face each other, she would naturally be no match.

“Sister Jiuzhi, my brother has given you a chance,” Xu Yindeng said with a light laugh.

"What a loving and respectful brother! With a brother like that, you would have avoided dying countless times."

Just then, a soft, slow voice came from afar.

Xu Yindeng and Xu Yinhe looked in the direction of the sound, and their smiles froze on their faces at the first glance.

"Brother Zhao?"

Xu Jiuliu looked up and saw a familiar figure walking from a distance. Who else could it be but Zhang Fan?
