Chapter 256: Chapter 203: To Fulong Gorge to Ease a Junior Brother’s Worries
’Worthy of the name Samadhi True Fire. Worthy of a True Inheritance from an Ancestral Sect,’ Jiang Yi praised in his heart.
This fire technique, just like the "Six Dings Fire" used by Gong Rong of the Eight Sceneries Palace, was one of the ten types of True Fire.
A Daoist Scripture states: I have three True Fires—the upper is the fire of spirit, the middle is the fire of Essence, and the lower is the fire of qi. When the three converge, they become true; when scattered, they become qi, their transformations endless.
Just by watching Feng Yuan channel his Magical Power, one could see the overwhelming Samadhi True Fire blanket the peaks and ravines. And yet, it didn’t harm the forest, stones, or trees in the slightest. It swept over them like a surging wave, incinerating the pillars of smoke that were once Demon-forms.
This showed that not only was this True Inheritance disciple’s Cultivation profound, but his control over the Daoist Technique was also utterly masterful.
"Samadhi Fire burns all things. You must refine three apertures: the heart aperture to store the spirit fire, the dan aperture to nurture the Essence fire, and the lower aperture to nurture the qi fire."
Feng Yuan made no secret of his cultivation’s essentials. To refine Samadhi Fire, one needed an Upper Cultivator to personally oversee the process.
While in the Qi Cultivation Realm, he was chosen by his master, True Monarch Yuan, to study the Second Grade "Three Yangs Completion Technique."
At the Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer, he condensed the Third Grade True Qi [Heart Monarch Qi]. At the Qi Cultivation Twelfth Layer, he absorbed [Water Organ Baleful Qi] and [Civil-Martial Astral Qi].
Finally, he condensed a Magical Power seed and refined the Samadhi True Fire.
"When the three apertures are burned open, nurturing the fire also nurtures one’s life."
Jiang Yi pondered for a moment before speaking:
"Brother Feng, your Samadhi True Fire is truly miraculous. Channeling the spirit fire from the heart aperture can vanquish all Demons; urging the Essence fire from the dan aperture can destroy physical bodies; and moving the qi fire from the lower aperture excels at incinerating all things. When the three converge, the power is truly endless."
’This Daoist Jiang is truly proficient in fire techniques, not just an empty talker. With a single sentence, he has pointed out the fundamental principles of Samadhi Fire.’
’Number one in Dao Wisdom on the Southern Dipper Ranking. He truly lives up to his name.’
A more genuine smile appeared on his face as he looked at Jiang Yi and said:
"Daoist, your insight is like a torch. The keys to the Cultivation of Samadhi Fire are none other than the two concepts of ’mental stability’ and ’qi convergence.’
One must treat the heart aperture as the sovereign, commanding the Primordial Essence within the body and governing all the qi in the hundred bones."
"To incinerate thousands of Demon-forms with a single thought... Brother Feng, your skill is impressive."
Jiang Yi chuckled lightly.
"I have now witnessed your Samadhi True Fire. I happen to have a cluster of ’Six Dings Fire’ myself. I invite Brother Feng to appraise it."
Feng Yuan’s expression flickered. Gong Rong of the Eight Sceneries Palace, titled [True Monarch of Imperial Flame and Bright Invocation], had first made a name for himself at the Pill Essence Conference with his mastery of the Six Dings Fire technique.
Later, on the orders of [Tai Yang], he broke through [Fengdu] and annihilated the [Ghost Dao], but in doing so exhausted his Life Essence and fate, perishing and transforming into the Dao.
And with him, the Six Dings Fire became a lost art.
’To think I would be able to witness the splendor of the Six Dings Fire again, and in the hands of the Daoist no less.’
Feng Yuan sighed with emotion, then turned a burning gaze toward Jiang Yi, unable to hide the eagerness in his eyes.
Jiang Yi formed a hand seal with his right hand. Incomparably pure Magical Power from his Inner Mansion surged toward his Primordial Gate, then shot out from the crown of his head!
BOOM! The clear sky shook violently as astral winds erupted in all directions!
’This is the Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer? Such pure Magical Power, such condensed Profound Light... No wonder he won the triple crown on the Northern Dipper Ranking and holds the top spot.’
A flicker of astonishment passed through Feng Yuan’s eyes, his gaze fixed tightly on Jiang Yi. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
This Daoist was one thing when he held back, but the moment he acted, his power was world-shaking—
The Profound Light was like a waterfall of fire flowing in reverse, rising from behind his head. It split into two colors, upper and lower: a golden flame of utmost yang and ferocity, and a red flame, restrained yet brilliantly radiant!
Feng Yuan’s earlier use of Samadhi True Fire had already caused the crust beneath Changming Sky-Lake to shake violently. Now, endless clouds of Dense Qi surged forth, gathering into a dark, oppressive mass that came howling toward them.
Sensing the Qi Mechanism, the various Demon-forms hidden within the clouds of qi manifested their shapes. Some became ferocious beasts, some swarms of black snakes, and others a dense sea of blood, their auras overwhelmingly powerful.
’The Daoist is going to have a hard time with this.’
Seeing this, Feng Yuan’s expression turned grave. He secretly cupped a cluster of Samadhi True Fire in his palm, just in case.
Although these Demon-forms were mindless and dazed, they were also fearless. They swarmed forward in a ceaseless, overwhelming tide.
The few leading Demon-forms were especially troublesome, their Qi Mechanisms vast and their transformations numerous.
But Jiang Yi remained composed, simply raising his hand and pointing.
The supremely yang and ferocious Bing Fire golden flame instantly transformed into a brilliant divine light. Like a Great Sun plummeting from the heavens, it smashed directly toward the thousands of Demon-forms!
A great RUMBLE echoed between heaven and earth!
The Bingding Crimson Divine Light pierced through the atmosphere! Fierce flames shot to the sky, like hundreds of thunderbolts exploding in unison, shaking the world in all directions!
More than half of the dark, oppressive cloud of Demon-forms was instantly swept away. The currents of Dense Qi were annihilated, melting away in an instant like boiling water poured on snow!
Only a single Demon-form, a giant black serpent some two hundred feet long, managed to evade the Crimson Divine Light. It lunged forward like a bolt of lightning, its jaws open to tear and bite!
Feng Yuan focused, on high alert, ready to "come to the rescue" at a moment’s notice.
’That magnificent strike of divine light, which split the atmosphere, must have consumed at least Eighty Percent of the Daoist’s Magical Power,’ he mused. ’He might not have the strength left to deal with the one that got away.’
Streams of fire surged and blazing flames roared, burning away the last of the dense clouds.
Jiang Yi, however, had not let his guard down in the slightest. Seeing the giant serpent open its gaping maw, he immediately formed another Technique and, with a flick of his wrist, unleashed a beam of Profound Light!
This Profound Light transformed into a radiant fire qi, which condensed into a tangible, jade-colored glaze.
Then, Jiang Yi blew gently. His vast Magical Power fanned the flame like a fierce gale, and its power instantly exploded!
The ferocious, malevolent Demon serpent was more than halfway dissolved the instant it touched a mere speck of that fire qi.
Moreover, no matter how the Dense Qi of its form roiled and transformed, the fire qi clung to it like a cancer on the bone.
In just three to five breaths, this colossal Demon-form, whose power was comparable to the Qi Cultivation Twelfth Layer, was burned alive into nothingness.
"The Combined Refining of Bingding, in harmony with Yin and Yang! He uses the might of Bing Fire to destroy its form and the Ding Fire’s Nature to incinerate its qi..."
Feng Yuan’s brow twitched slightly, and then he praised with heartfelt admiration:
