Chapter 926 Profound Understanding (Part 7)
"I understand." Han Yi suddenly realized that the struggle between images was just like dividing a cake.
The imagery manifests by borrowing the power of heaven and earth.
Essentially, it's about the degree to which we utilize the energy of heaven and earth.
The free energy flowing in the outside world is like a cake, and the two people simultaneously take tools and start cutting it.
The side that uses more energy, has greater power, and has an advantage in attributes has a high probability of having the last laugh.
Imagery is a tool, a fulcrum, and the key to leveraging the infinite power of the heavens with tiny human effort.
A 20% increase is equivalent to the opponent wielding a small knife while you wield a large cleaver. Your efficiency, area of effect, and power are inherently superior, giving you a clear advantage. "Good, I understand." Lin Mu nodded. "Then, let's begin."
He stretched out his hand, and a ball of white light slowly appeared in his palm.
It was a jade stone the size of an egg, crystal clear and gleaming, with patterns on its surface shining with white light, moving and shifting as if they were alive.
"This is the Heavenly Thunder Jade, one of the rare treasures of our school for comprehending the imagery of thunder," Lin Mu explained simply. "Take it and feel it with your heart."
"Careful?"
Han Yi was puzzled. He probed the jade with his divine sense and, in a daze, the environment in front of him had changed drastically.
Looking around, it felt as if I were standing in a vast, fertile field.
Rumble...
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning tore through the sky, ripped through the heavens, and exploded before Han Yi. Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the first bolt of lightning appeared, thunder roared incessantly, and countless bolts of lightning crashed down, illuminating everything. Silver snakes danced wildly across the sky, and the entire space began to tremble slowly.
Thunder roared like the sea, and lightning ripped through the sky.
It felt like being immersed in an ocean of lightning.
The demons and monsters were terrified, and the fertile land trembled.
Continuous bolts of lightning danced and leaped, surging and spewing forth, converging and transforming.
For a while.
Thunder roared, beasts howled, and birds cried out in a high-pitched voice.
Hundreds upon hundreds of chaotic and disordered sounds, rumbling thunder, and incessant roars of beasts and cries of birds.
The whole scene was like a pot of ice water being poured into a scalding hot oil pan, causing everything to explode and splash.
"Attain utmost emptiness, hold fast to stillness." Looking at the chaotic scene before me, like a pot of porridge in disarray.
Han Yi slowly closed his eyes, recalling the key points Lin Mu had carefully instructed him on.
At this moment, his face was as still as water, his soul was highly focused, and his perception was rapidly enhanced, as if he had instantly arrived at the highest heavens, looking down upon all living beings.
"I see…..."
A moment later, Han Yi slowly opened his eyes, his indifferent eyes filled with calmness, as if he could see through and understand every scene before him.
Beyond the surface, let's get to the heart of it.
In fact, it is true.
The world before Han Yi's eyes changed drastically in an instant: the vast, desolate fields, the howling birds and beasts, and even the ubiquitous flowers, grasses, and trees...
Everything is composed of lightning. Every blade of grass, every tree, every grain of sand, and every stone is a manifestation of lightning.
“Spring thunder is the evolution of all things…” A sense of enlightenment slowly rose in Han Yi’s heart.
At this moment, strands of clear light rose up, dancing in the sky, and gathered towards him.
As the strange phenomenon appeared, Han Yi suddenly had a different feeling. His soul seemed to have undergone some kind of wonderful change, as if it had merged with the whole world and become one with it.
His body was ethereal and elusive; if he so desired, a single thought could easily cause a qualitative change in his soul.
By converging imagery, one enters the realm of profound mystery.
"No rush. Let's proceed slowly..."
Han Yi's thoughts raced. He knew that being impatient for quick results was not advisable. He had not yet decided which imagery he wanted to condense, and the time was not yet right.
The world of lightning before him shattered with a deafening roar. When he opened his eyes again, sitting before him was still the concerned old man, Lin Mu. "You're back?" Lin Mu smiled. "How are you feeling?"
"I can break through at any time." Lightning flashed between Han Yi's brows, and crackling sounds emanated from his body. Clearly, the Heavenly Thunder Jade had stirred up the thunderous intent within him, making it difficult for him to control his aura.
“Very good, you can have that feeling. The next task... is to determine the image to choose…” Lin Mu explained, “My Northern Divine Soul Path borrows the energy of heaven and earth for its own use. There are three levels of utilizing energy: mobilizing, borrowing, and competing. If the beginning is a request, after reaching the Profound Realm, it becomes a command.”
In actual combat, its power depends on your own spirit and will, that is, the strength of your mental power. Remember, mental power is a weapon, armor; it can be anything, or it can be nothing. The only factor is yourself.
"Seeking within and seeking without are means and methods. As for which path to choose next, there is no standard answer. There is no right or wrong in this step, only whether it is suitable or not."
Lin Mu flipped his hand, revealing another scroll. "My Myriad Manifestations School's secret manual records twelve different lightning-related imagery, ranging from weak to strong and from easy to difficult, for your reference. If you are still undecided, directly referencing the imagery recorded in the manual is also a viable option."
The secret manual may not be as powerful or effective as a self-created method in terms of compatibility and strength, but it has the advantage of a stable minimum success rate and a higher success rate. Take it; come find me if you have any questions.
"Understood." Han Yi nodded.
Looking at what he held in his hand, his eyes held a hint of melancholy.
A piece of Heavenly Thunder Jade and a secret manual—the former aiding in the comprehension of thunder intent, and the latter providing options for imagery—these two items were his biggest goals in coming to the North.
It is also equivalent to the most valuable legacy within a school of thought.
He still remembered that when he got lost and wandered into Hongji, he met several impoverished members of the Hundred Veins while hanging around in the Demon Saint Palace.
Those people's eyes always revealed a longing for the revival of the school of thought.
Han Yi was puzzled at the time. Even if the school had declined, its realm and cultivation strength were still there. Why not join his family?
Looking back now, it all makes perfect sense.
That's definitely not possible.
Divine soul, imagery, and demonic power are all obtained through cultivating corresponding divine forging techniques and exploring them in conjunction with one's inner conviction.
The origin of the Divine Forging Technique lies in the inheritance of the school's philosophy.
Once the path has been chosen.
It can be said.
One's own cultivation becomes intertwined with the school's philosophy, mutually recognizing and complementing each other.
If a school of thought declines, dissolves, and is forced into exile, joining other schools along the way, then it must acknowledge that the other schools' philosophies are correct and its own are flawed. This is a difference in concepts, not merely a difference in techniques.
You think sweet tofu pudding is delicious, but I think only savory tofu pudding is authentic.
Ideological clashes are particularly troublesome and cannot be resolved simply by winning or losing.
From the initial stages of enlightenment, awakening the soul, and condensing the spirit, to reaching the profound and concentrating the mind, the school of thought followed on the path of cultivation has long been deeply ingrained in the bones, and there is a profound instinctive identification with it.
No wonder Lin Muxin was so determined to pass on the school of thought no matter what...
It's not just the elderly who have this stubborn reluctance to let their traditions die out.
Rather, he did not believe that the school of thought was wrong.
If there are no mistakes, then it should not be eliminated, should not fade into obscurity, and should not end here.
"Oh, right. There's one more thing to remember," Lin Mu reminded him. "To date, the countless images that have been generated and condensed within the Hundred Meridians are immeasurable. They vary in strength and nature."
But nothing is absolute, nothing can completely overwhelm all powerful images; imperfections are normal. Your talent is strong enough, but be careful not to become complacent; don't strive excessively for perfection, because absolute perfection is impossible. What suits you best is the most perfect.
"Yes."
Han Yi understood, bowed, and took his leave.
The School of All Things.
It encompasses everything and aligns with the principles of Heaven and Earth.
These eight characters encapsulate the philosophy of the Myriad Phenomena School.
During his time in the school, Han Yi gained some understanding of this concept.
Inexplicable.
This concept seems to have a strange resonance and similarity with the concept of his self-created path, the Hunyuan Tianluo Dao...
It integrates everything, simulates everything, embraces all things, and is as vast as the ocean.
This is the philosophy embodied in the Hunyuan Tianluo Dao.
It is exactly the same as the meaning of "encompassing all things and in harmony with the universe".
It resembles a strange, unrecognizable form.
Two sides in one body.
So…...
When the ideology is agreed upon.
It seems there's no need for him to go to other schools of thought.
Staying here is fine.
……………
……………
Han Yi slowly walked out of the main hall, his mind filled with countless thoughts. Various ideas appeared like lightning, collided and burst apart, and then triggered a series of inner reflections.
"Ok?"
He had only taken a few steps when he stopped and unexpectedly saw Lu Chenxin leaning against the wall in the shadows.
Lu Chenxin stared at him coldly, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
"..."
Han Yi also fell silent, and the two stared at each other, locked in a standoff.
snort!
After a while.
Lu Chenxin snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"strangeness…..."
Han Yi frowned slightly, watching the other person leave until their figure disappeared into the darkness. A subtle hostility emanated from them.
He could sense it from Lu Chenxin.
Han Yi had also figured it out after their interactions over this period of time.
Lu Chenxin appears dignified, generous, and extraordinary on the surface, and speaks and acts in a sophisticated manner. However, he is actually narrow-minded, selfish, and holds a grudge against anyone who gets in his way, always seeking revenge.
Chunhui, who looks honest but is actually even more honest, is the complete opposite of Chunhui.
However, Lu Chenxin is extremely good at disguising himself. He usually disguises himself very well in front of Lin Mu. In addition, he has decent talent and his strength far surpasses that of the others.
This caused many disciples to swallow their anger and dare not speak out.
but.
Lu Chenxin's strength... within the school, he'd be considered a minor expert, constantly being called "Senior Brother." But compared to Han Yi...
That's a huge difference, like heaven and earth.
The reason for the hostility emanating from the other party... Han Yi actually knew it in his heart.
It's nothing more than a struggle for the position of leader of the Myriad Phenomena School, and among the candidates for the position.
