Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1226 - 535: River Map and Luoshu
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
At the center of the Four Symbols Divine Beast, an ancient altar slowly rose, upon which an ancient book emitting a seven-colored radiance appeared, faintly visible.
"Could this be... the River Map, the Luo Book?"
Li Yunjing was filled with immense shock; his intuition told him that this ancient book had countless connections with the ’Fuxi Eight Trigrams’ and the Four Great Guardian Armies.
In legend, the River Map and the Luo Book respectively represent the origin of the Innate Eight Trigrams and the foundation of the Acquired Eight Trigrams!
This is the Great Dao!
"It’s said that when Fuxi ruled the world, a dragon horse emerged from the Yellow River, with mysterious star patterns on its back, this is the ’River Map’."
"With the ’River Map,’ Fuxi was inspired to deduce the Yin-Yang transformation of heaven and earth, and created the Innate Eight Trigrams, which became the source of the ’I Ching,’ that is the Luo Book!"
"The River Map and the Luo Book represent the revelations of the Heavenly Dao, symbolizing the supreme principles of observing the heavens above and exploring the earth below!"
Li Yunjing, his Divine Sense fixed on the River Map and Luo Book atop the altar, muttered to himself.
His expression was growing more and more excited!
Li Yunjing was unsure of what lay there!
Was it dimensional space?
Or a reflection of a world?
Or perhaps a node in the river of time?
Or maybe ancient inheritance within the turtle shell?
Li Yunjing could hardly discern it, unable to distinguish reality from illusion.
Li Yunjing tried to touch the ancient book with his Divine Sense, only to be rebounded by a powerful restriction.
At the same time, the power within the turtle shell began to surge again, ejecting Li Yunjing’s Divine Sense from the turtle shell space, sending his body crashing heavily onto the stone platform outside.
"Cough, cough..."
Li Yunjing struggled to climb to his feet, but his eyes were filled with excitement.
This unexpected discovery deepened his longing for the secrets of the ’Fuxi Eight Trigrams’ and the turtle shell.
The turtle shell seemed more important than anything else!
If he truly found clues to the River Map and Luo Book and obtained the Dao-confirming treasure of the Emperor Fuxi, then even if he ascended in the future, there wouldn’t be many Immortal Gods in heaven who could do anything to him!
To truly unravel these secrets, his current strength was far from enough.
"It seems, this secret will have to wait for the future."
Li Yunjing clenched his fists, excitement flashing in his eyes.
The cracks on the surface of the turtle shell faintly emitted a seven-colored halo, like a galaxy flowing within ancient patterns.
He took a deep breath, and the ’Five Elements Seal’ flew out from his palm, forming a cage in the air, slowly covering the turtle shell.
"Steady for me!"
The ’Five Elements Seal’ gradually subdued the magical treasure that revealed its wonders upon touching the turtle shell.
Yet in the next moment, the turtle shell seemed unwilling to be sealed and started to tremble.
"Boom!"
The phantom of the Four Symbols Divine Beast burst through the turtle shell, the Cyan Dragon’s tail stirring up wind and clouds, the Vermilion Bird flapping its wings to ignite the void, the White Tiger raising its claws to tear through space, and the Black Tortoise raising its head to swallow stars and rivers.
The ’Five Elements Seal’ was directly torn apart, and Li Yunjing was sent flying dozens of feet away, his back crashing heavily against the stone wall, yet he forced himself to make another seal: "Unity of the Four Symbols, Borrow the Law of Heaven and Earth!"
With Li Yunjing’s shout, the ’White Tiger Order’ and ’Black Tortoise Order’ at his waist resonated simultaneously, and the ’Black Tortoise Power’ and ’White Tiger Power,’ two distinctly different forces, erupted, forming the Black Tortoise Dharma Aspect and White Tiger Dharma Aspect.
The Black Tortoise Dharma Aspect appeared in mid-air, forming an integration of a tortoise and a snake.
"Yin and Yang harmonize, Unity of Heaven and Earth!"
The phantom of the ’Northern Profound Celestial Emperor’ manifested above the Dharma Aspect, and the massive Dharma Aspect vibrated, pressing down towards the turtle shell!
At the same time, the sharp Power of Gold swept out from the ’White Tiger Order,’ forming a massive White Tiger, arriving riding a tiger in the image of the ’Western White Tiger General,’ leading the Celestial Soldiers and Generals, assisting the Black Tortoise Dharma Aspect to suppress the turtle shell.
"Dragon Tiger Golden Core!"
Li Yunjing gritted his teeth through immense exhaustion, releasing his ’Dragon Tiger Golden Core’ from his Dantian!
The ’Cyan Dragon’ and ’White Tiger’ intertwined, exhaling and inhaling Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, unleashing terrifying pressure, supporting the Black Tortoise Dharma Aspect and White Tiger Dharma Aspect from the side!
"Dragon coiled, Tiger crouched, Yin Yang in synergy, suppress it for me!"
Li Yunjing formed seals with his hands, chanting incantations.
The ’Dragon Tiger Golden Core’ transformed into a stream of light, shooting straight towards the turtle shell.
Upon approaching the turtle shell, the majestic energy released by the Golden Core merged with the power of the Black Tortoise and White Tiger Dharma Aspects.
Next, Li Yunjing acted again, using ’Samadhi True Fire’ to evolve the ’Vermilion Bird Power,’ forming the ’Cyan Dragon,’ ’White Tiger,’ ’Vermilion Bird,’ and ’Black Tortoise’ Four Symbols Grand Array!
Though it contained many flaws, it nevertheless formed the Four Symbols!
The phantom of the Northern Profound Celestial Emperor wielded the ’True Martial Sword,’ and the Western White Tiger General brandished its claws and fangs; the two Dharma Aspects exerted their force simultaneously, pressing down on the turtle shell within the Four Symbols Grand Array.
The phantom of the Four Symbols Divine Beast within the turtle shell was equally unyielding, emitting earth-shaking roars.
Four Symbols against Four Symbols!
The Cyan Dragon stirred a raging storm, the Vermilion Bird unleashed roaring flames, the White Tiger released a biting gale, and the Black Tortoise stirred up crashing waves; the four forces intertwined, forming a storm potent enough to destroy everything.
Where Li Yunjing was, a tremendous disturbance had long since erupted.
Within the ’Black Tortoise Secret Realm,’ the entire legion was alarmed.
Numerous experts swiftly headed towards Li Yunjing’s secluded location.
Even the two Supreme Elders came!
No one expected such a great disturbance; what was this newly appointed Hall Master doing?
At this moment, Li Yunjing’s complexion turned pale as paper, with blood continuously seeping from the corners of his mouth.
