In a world of immortals and swordsmen, a young Taoist named Mu Shao'ai loves flying swords, raising poison insects, drawing talismans, and refining pills. Isn't it delightful to live a care...
"boom!"
In an instant, Bai Cang's mind transcended the external world, soaring to the four extremes and wandering in all directions.
The jade ball rises from the dantian, circulates through the twelve layers of the body, and then leaps out from the Baihui point on the top of the head.
The vast and mighty Primordial Dark Heavenly Cold Qi was also stirred by the jade pill, and began to circulate along some mysterious trajectory.
Unlike the previous confusion and bewilderment, it was only through a flash of inspiration that he finally understood the wonders of the "Five Elements Escape Technique".
This time, Bai Cang was confident and in an instant, he had imprinted ancient and simple seal script on every inch of flesh and bone.
The five directions and five elements, the five sacred mountains and five colors, gradually merge with form and spirit, exuding a perfect and complete Taoist charm.
Suddenly, Bai Cang raised his eyes, and his phoenix eyes, dragon eyes, and vertical pupil between his brows all burst forth with divine light, as if he had seen through a glimpse of the ethereal origin of the Great Dao.
"boom!"
The next moment.
The great Dao's profound teachings resounded, and form and spirit merged into heaven and earth.
It was as if he had lost his physical form and merged into the whole world.
In a daze, Bai Cang felt his essence, energy, and spirit merge into the jade ball, entering the deepest level of meditative state. He followed the trajectory of the jade ball's leaps, remembering this profound experience, imprinting it deep in his soul, and transforming it into his own instinct.
The jade ball, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, darted and leaped within his body, leaving behind a trail that outlined ancient seal script that was both mysterious and ineffable.
"boom!"
The next moment.
An overwhelming sense of understanding welled up within him, and the ever-flowing Jade Ball suddenly came to a halt.
Amidst the thunderous roar of the Great Dao's decree, five-colored mystical light intertwined and crisscrossed behind Bai Cang, causing him to involuntarily chant the mantra: "Master the Five Thunders, command!"
With a soft shout, the Great Dao descended upon him, and the message about "mastering the Five Thunders" was suddenly imprinted deep within his soul and on his true spirit.
The Five Thunders are externally influenced by the Five Elements, internally correspond to the Five Organs, and gather together the Five Gods. The Liver is the God of the Eastern Soul, which corresponds to Jia Wood and Yi Wood; the Lung is the God of the Western Soul, which corresponds to Geng Metal and Xin Metal; the Heart is the God of the Southern Fire, which corresponds to Bing Fire and Ding Fire; the Kidney is the God of the Northern Essence, which corresponds to Ren Water and Gui Water; and the Spleen is the God of the Central Palace, which corresponds to Xu Earth and Ji Earth.
Jia and Yi represent wood, Geng and Xin represent metal, Bing and Ding represent fire, Ren and Gui represent water, and Xu and Ji represent earth. Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the Five Organs and the Five Spirits, and the Five Qi gather together and unite into one to reach the Dao. Only then can one master the Five Thunders, drive thunder and lightning, pray for rain and clear skies, exorcise evil spirits and demons, ward off locust plagues and eliminate evil spirits, and refine and guide wandering souls!
Bai Cang calmed his mind, and within the ancient seal script, faint lightning flashed, endless Daoist charm permeated the air, and Yin and Yang and the Five Elements manifested.
Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth, the change of yin and yang, and the unifier of all things.
Mastering the Five Thunders is far more complex than simply understanding the Five Elements Divine Thunder; it also encompasses the transformations of Yin and Yang, and contains many other profound mysteries, which are the same as those who follow the Dao.
The Five Thunders are: Heavenly Thunder, Earthly Thunder, Water Thunder, Divine Thunder, and Social Thunder.
Heavenly Thunder governs the order of the heavens and the four seasons, giving rise to all things, protecting against calamities, vanquishing heavenly demons, eradicating plagues, capturing heavenly monsters and all incurable evil spirits, saving lives and rescuing children, and healing great illnesses.
Landmines are the source of all things, nourish the five grains, sweep away insects and locusts, cut down mountain spirits and stone monsters, clear away mountain miasma and evil, deliver dead souls, control the earth's resistance, and pray for sunshine and rain.
The Water Mine Master is in charge of bringing rain, relieving droughts, eliminating dragons, poisonous snakes, evil sea monsters, and spirits, and stirring up wind and clouds. He governs all matters in the Water Palace.
Divine Thunder is the master of killing and can slay all deities who worship evil, those who cause trouble, mountain demons, and spirits of Buddhist temples, pagodas, houses, temples, and other mountain and river spirits.
The She Lei Master kills the spirits of ancient artifacts, subdues the old energy of the plains, destroys altars and temples, and acts expediently without needing to report to the emperor.
Another Daoist text says: Heavenly thunder rumbles faintly, earthly thunder roars loudly, dragon thunder turns into water, water thunder waves surge, and the earth god commands thunder and fire.
Those who master the Five Thunders possess the power to subdue demons and monsters, bring rain and clear skies, summon gods, and instantly kill!
To be precise, the Five Elements Divine Thunder is only one part of "Divine Thunder".
Bai Cang cultivates the "Five Elements Yin Magic," using the five internal organs to nourish the five spirits, using the five spirits to gather the five energies, using the five energies to connect with the five elements, and also masters the "True Forms of the Five Sacred Mountains" and the "Five Elements Escape Technique."
Therefore, after awakening to "mastering the Five Thunders", one naturally masters the method of "Five Elements Divine Thunder", and also possesses a few mysteries of the "Earth Thunder" section.
However, to fully master the "Five Thunders," he still needs to improve his cultivation, condense a complete ancient thunder talisman, and summon the five thunder emperors in order to completely control the "Five Thunders Great Divine Power."
"Boom!"
With a thought, Bai Cang's mind guided the ancient seal script, and the sky suddenly darkened. The intertwined yin and yang energies, like the pivot of heaven and earth, also responded and moved at this moment.
Dark clouds rolled in, and the lightning displayed five colors: white, blue, black, red, and yellow, representing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Suddenly, they converged into one, weaving together to form a chaotic divine lightning bolt of all colors.
The moment the thunder struck, a vast and mighty force of heaven swept out, creating a heavy and oppressive atmosphere throughout the world.
Within and beyond the illusory realm, above and below the ancient trees and wolf forests, countless living beings, even plants, trees, mountains, and rivers—all those with spirit—felt an impending doom and trembled under the overwhelming might of Heaven.
"Boom!"
The next moment.
Suddenly, the Chaos Divine Thunder descended, vast and mighty, like a long river of lightning. In an instant, it fell into Bai Cang's hand and split into five-colored lightning again. It did not explode at all, but instead became docile and "obedient," flowing endlessly between his fingers like water.
At this moment, right now.
Bai Cang was like a monarch of thunder, a god-emperor of heaven, wielding thunder to scare away evil spirits and sweep away demons, surrounded by majestic heavenly might and unparalleled pressure.
"What a wonderful mastery of the Five Thunders! Truly wondrous!"
The next moment, Bai Cang dispelled the five-colored lightning, and couldn't help but smile, his whole body filled with indescribable joy and excitement.
The perfect completion of the two hundred apertures and the reappearance of his innate minor supernatural power were things he had expected.
Opportunities that others can only dream of are, in the eyes of Bai Cang, whose foundation is so solid as to be almost unprecedented, merely things that are readily available and taken for granted.
However, even for Bai Cang, awakening the "great" supernatural power of "mastering the Five Thunders" was a huge surprise.
At this point, he could combine "Five Elements Divine Thunder" with "Five Elements Escape Technique" to master "Five Elements Great Escape," and he could also delve into and refine the art of thunder, advancing from "Divine Thunder" to "Five Thunder," directly transforming into a "Thunder Cultivator." He could also incorporate thunder techniques into the sword path, achieving "dual cultivation of sword and thunder," and even integrate the transformations of "Yin Yang and Five Elements" to cultivate the path of Yin Yang and Five Elements.
In short: the road ahead has widened!
Bai Cang was filled with excitement as he comprehended the mysteries of "mastering the Five Thunders." Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him: "Why don't I also solidify my Dao foundation while I'm at it!"
With the "Golden Gate and Jade Lock" in hand, he can start or stop the process of condensing his Dao foundation at any time, and there is no such thing as "no regrets after achieving the Dao".
Even if he has condensed a portion of his Dao foundation, it will not affect his ability to continue to solidify his foundation in the Qi Refining stage, paving the way for his future path.
Once the thought came to mind, I couldn't stop it!
