My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

Therefore, these cultivators who were waiting for an opportunity soon fell into a deep slumber under the influence of the Fog of Depravity, their thoughts gradually solidifying.

The Azure Dragon Elephant possesses three major powers. For every fourth-grade Three Treasures Golden Flower Sacred Body Sacred Realm, the Azure Dragon Elephant that is condensed can condense one power.

The three powers are the power to swallow clouds and spit out mist, the power of thunder in the nine heavens, and the power of the spirit of all waters.

Fundamentally, the Azure Dragon image is a combination of the "Covering the Sky Technique" and the "Burial of the Sky Technique".

The Azure Dragon's true form evolved from the combination of the Black Dragon, a deified representation of the Mangshan Mountains, and the Yellow Dragon, a deified representation of the Yellow River's waterways.

The Great Emperor of Burial Heaven and the Great Emperor of Yellow Springs were formed by the laws of Mangshan and the Yellow River through human sacrifices.

Xuanlong and Huanglong are considered to be the brothers of the Burial Emperor and the Yellow Spring Emperor.

The principles they embody are partly the same as those of the Great Emperor of Burial Heaven and the Great Emperor of Yellow Springs.

However, the former did not grasp the profound meaning as the latter.

The former only contains form, while the latter contains form, meaning, and spirit.

Zhao Xuan obtained the power of reincarnation, the power of oblivion, and the power of oath from the Oath Stone.

The power of oblivion contains a portion of the principles and laws of the "Covering the Sky Technique".

The Yellow River is called the Yellow River because it contains a large amount of sediment, making the water turbid and yellow in color.

But the ancient human race did not think that way.

They believed that the Yellow River was a waterway connecting the underworld and the human world.

The Yellow River turns yellow because it is connected to the River of Oblivion in the underworld.

The water of the River of Oblivion is yellow, as it has polluted the Yellow River.

Therefore, in addition to earth burial, humans also practiced water burial.

This is why the Yellow Springs Emperor was able to sit in the Netherworld and establish the Underworld while being human.

The power of oblivion is the result of the power of the Blood Sea being assimilated by the Netherworld.

In the underworld, it appears as the River of Oblivion.

Therefore, the mist exhaled by Zhao Xuan's Azure Dragon Elephant is more powerful than the mist exhaled by an Azure Dragon Elephant of ordinary Saint Realm.

Zhao Xuan condensed the Boundless Holy Body.

His immeasurable holy body has immeasurable lifespan, immeasurable Dharma, and immeasurable supernatural powers.

It's not that it's truly limitless.

Instead, the recovery speed is extremely fast, almost instantaneous.

Therefore, the mist exhaled by Zhao Xuan's Azure Dragon image initially appeared as wisps, but later it truly reached the point of obscuring the sky and sun.

When the fog completely enveloped the entire mountain range, its density was so high that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

Except for a few sacred beings who escaped the mountains as soon as they realized something was wrong, the rest were blinded by the power of decadence contained in the mist, falling into a state of mental slumber.

So the escaping sanctuary began trying to dispel the fog from the outside. When they found they couldn't, they called on their friends for help, but it was still no use.

How about a vow of eternal love?

Zhao Xuan also mastered the power of oaths. Now the fog and mountains are like lovers, trying every means to stick together.

Ten years passed quietly like this.

It would be a lie to say that nothing happened during these ten years.

But none of these things are a big deal.

It's simply that more and more practitioners are gathering here.

But that didn't help.

With Zhao Xuan gaining the upper hand, the fog will only grow stronger.

Those cultivators could only stand guard on the outside.

For Zhao Xuan, who is not good at fighting, he would not risk his life to confront these people head-on.

They won't die, but who knows what kind of supernatural powers these people possess? It's not pleasant to be tricked like that.

There are far too many such supernatural powers in the "Record of Supernatural Powers".

Seven nails on a nail head, the Yellow River with its nine bends, and insinuating sand are three of them.

These three supernatural powers each have their own drawbacks: one diminishes one's lifespan, one diminishes one's martial prowess, and one diminishes one's moral character.

You won't die from being tricked, but all your efforts over thousands of years will have been wasted.

For example, Zhao Xuan's current cultivation of thirty-six Jiazi has been refined into the Three Treasures Golden Flower.

But his magical power is not limited to thirty-six Jiazi.

If these supernatural powers were to interfere, any extras would likely be annihilated by them.

After ten years of accumulation, the fog had reached a certain level, so Zhao Xuan had the Azure Dragon Elephant take charge while he himself disappeared.

When Zhao Xuan reappeared, he had already arrived at the East China Sea.

Deep in the East Sea, there are three fairy mountains: Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang.

At the summit of Fangzhang Immortal Mountain, Zhong Shan, along with Xue Mo and Bai Mo, were fighting against dozens of people.

It wasn't really a battle, really. Zhong Shan and his two companions each had a transparent sphere on their heads, while dozens of others used wind, fire, and water to attack them relentlessly.

The sphere flickered a few times each time it was attacked, as if it were about to be broken.

But it instantly returned to normal.

Zhao Xuan chuckled inwardly; he realized that Zhong Shan and the other two were toying with those people.

In the field of science and technology, there are many factors that determine the properties of materials.

However, in the realm of fantasy, it is the structure that determines the properties of materials.

Hunyuan, Liangyi, Sancai, Sixiang, Wuxing, Liuhe, Qixing, Bagua, Jiugong.

It refers to the nine structures that determine the properties of materials in the realm of fantasy.

The mixed structure determines whether a material can be stable.

The two-dimensional structure determines whether the material can change.

The three-dimensional structure determines whether the material can bear the load.

The four-element structure determines whether a material can be strong.

The Five Elements structure determines whether materials can be transformed.

The six-part structure determines whether materials can be fused together.

The seven-star structure determines whether the material can be sharp.

The Bagua structure determines whether materials can expand.

The nine-square structure determines whether the materials can be standardized.

The enhancement of the elephant's power is based on the development of these nine structures.

The formation also developed by drawing upon these nine structures.

For example, the Azure Dragon image of the Sacred Realm is actually developed based on the Nine Palaces and the Three Powers structures.

The dragon has three sections, which are equal in length: from the head to the forelimbs, from the forelimbs to the waist, and from the waist to the tail.

It has nine resemblances: antlers like a deer, head like a horse, eyes like a rabbit, ears like a cow, whiskers like a loach, body like a snake, scales like a fish, feet like a bird, and paws like a tiger.

The three sections represent the three powers of Heaven, Earth, and Man, while the nine resemblances represent the nine palaces.

The structure of the Three Powers lies in its ability to bear everything, while the structure of the Nine Palaces lies in its ability to unify everything.

The three elements of the Azure Dragon symbol embody the Mandate of Heaven, the Virtue of Earth, and the Human Heart.

The Nine Palaces unite various forces in the central palace through divine power.

Therefore, a dragon can be large or small, can rise or hide; when large, it can swallow clouds and spit out mist, when small, it can hide its form; when rising, it can soar through the universe, when hiding, it can lurk within the waves.

The One Element Heavy Water is a mystical mixed-element structure.

From a scientific perspective, one could say that monolithic heavy water is formed by countless drops of water compressing the spacing between molecules and even atoms, causing them to converge.

However, from a scientific perspective, achieving this is extremely difficult.

Solving this problem using fantasy methods is quite simple.

From a scientific perspective, we can understand things at the microscopic level. A drop of water is made up of a large number of water molecules, and the water molecule is the basic unit.

However, in the grand scheme of fantasy, a drop of water can be considered a basic unit, as can ten thousand drops of water, a river, or an ocean.

When your understanding reaches a certain level, an ocean can automatically transform into a single drop of monolithic heavy water at the microscopic level.

If we insist on explaining the difference between mystical and scientific matter, we can only do so through the lens of the perpetual nature of all things and quantum mechanics.

Mystical cognition can reduce all matter to a quantum state, and then change cognition, and matter will change.

However, this involves things like magic power and cultivation level. After the change in understanding, it becomes about things like magic power and cultivation level, which transform matter again.

Zhao Xuan used fantastical cognitive techniques when transforming the primordial heavy water.

We also need scientific cognitive methods to endow the monolithic heavy water with scientific characteristics.

The concept of fantasy is that all things are one.

Scientific understanding is one and two.

The characteristic of the mixed-element structure in the fantasy side is stability.

The scientific aspect determines the stability of matter at the microscopic level through atomic motion, information exchange, and the influence of various interaction forces.

When Zhao Xuan arrives at this understanding and applies it to the primordial heavy water, its microscopic structure becomes extremely stable, neither escaping nor absorbing energy.

Just like the sarira described in the Heart Sutra, which is the state of emptiness of all dharmas, neither arising nor ceasing, neither defiled nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing.

This is also reflected at the macro level, where monolithic heavy water becomes very stable.

Water only needs slight electrolysis to break down water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.

However, unary heavy water does not react with any energy and can exist indefinitely.

Of course, it's impossible to completely and utterly avoid reacting with any energy.

Zhao Xuan is not yet able to grant the absolute transformation ability of One Element Heavy Water.

One-element heavy water needs to grow, and the energy consumed in growth is called "Dao Xing" in fantasy divination.

In fantasy, the power of cultivation is composed of divine energy, vital energy, and essence.

Below the level of cultivation is magical power, which is a weakening of cultivation.

Magic power is the power of a cultivator to use their own spiritual cultivation to permeate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus imprinting their own mark on it.

This makes them directly controlled by the practitioners.

However, magic has a weakness: when a cultivator uses their own cultivation to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this spiritual energy will merge with a portion of the cultivator's own cultivation.

When it is used up, the spiritual energy returns to the world.

It also took away a portion of the cultivator's own spiritual cultivation.

In the realm of Taoism, practitioners absorb the principles and laws of heaven and earth and integrate them with their own self-awareness to form a second set of principles and laws.

These principles and laws will spread throughout the world as the spiritual energy returns to the heavens and earth.

This is why high-level cultivators need to go into a deep sleep to maintain their combat power.

The more battles one engages in, the more one's own principles and laws will spread.

The practitioner's spiritual practice will lose the blessing of reason and law, causing their own form to lose its original power.

The more a practitioner's own spiritual cultivation and the greater the proportion of reason and law, the greater the power of the manifestation.

The requirement for the nine realms and eighty-one grades of combat power is that the ratio of reason and law must start from one.

Each item is a part, and each realm is a principle and law.

The Nine Realms of Perfection are the Ninefold Principle and Law.

Each level of principle and law allows one to wield magical power ten times that of their own cultivation.

The so-called false realm is when one's own understanding of Tao, principles, and laws is too weak.
