Chapter 6: The Purple Mist Treasure Record

  Yang Tianwen didn't notice, at this moment Yang Tianwen felt that he was really hit by a pie in the sky. Even if Yang Tianwen had an IQ of over 240 and was very good at emotional control, he would still be unable to hold back. Of course, one reason is that he realized he had actually obtained the legendary Xianyuan, but more importantly, it was the excitement of encountering something interesting to study.

  Yang Tianwen was not very interested in rights, status, money, and jewels, because these things were like something within reach, readily available to him. What Yang Tianwen wanted was a challenge, an exploration and interpretation of the unknown. The appearance of the Fate Heavenly Disk was a profound and interesting challenge, and secondly, it was said that the method could cultivate immortality, which further sparked Yang Tianwen's great interest.

  "Alright, your wish has been granted. Before you lose your soul, you will be the only master of the Destiny Heavenly Plate. We'll meet again next time." The old man said and then vanished into thin air, disappearing at the same time, the Luo Pan also turned into a beam of light rushing towards Yang Tianwen's left hand back.

  Yang Tianwen was about to say something when he suddenly felt a strong stabbing pain and dizziness, and Yang Tianwen didn't know anything and fell to the ground all at once.

  It was unclear how long it took, but Yang Tianwen finally got up from the ground, cleared his head, carefully confirmed that he wasn't dreaming. Suddenly, he noticed a foul smell coming from his body and saw that he had accumulated a thick layer of black, smelly mud on himself, with no idea where it came from.

  Although I didn't want to waste water, at this time, I couldn't help it either. I took a comfortable bath and changed into new clothes, using tree leaves to make a temporary outfit. After hanging the clothes out to dry, Yang Tian finally felt the changes in his body and discovered the compass tattoo on the back of his left hand.

  It's as if I've become as light as a swallow, and my whole body has become exceptionally relaxed. If this is what it means to be normal now, then before, it was like carrying countless heavy objects on my back. Why is that? Yang Tian didn't have a detailed explanation, but he could only confirm that it had something to do with the Destiny Heavenly Disk.

  After solving the problem of his stomach, Yang Tian asked climbed up to the tree hole and began to eagerly interpret the things in his mind. Without needing anyone to point it out, Yang Tian naturally concentrated his spirit, putting all his consciousness into his mind.

  The Zi Xiao Bao Lu, the four big characters seemed to float in front of his eyes, written in small seal script. Below it was its true contents, this cultivation method guided by the Heavenly Fate Plate, which Yang Tian Wen called the most mysterious one he knew, and also deeply attracted his curiosity.

  "The Treasure of the Purple Chamber" is divided into five parts: "The Great Tao of Freedom", "The Chapter of Strange Things", "The Secret Explanation of the Alchemical Equipment", "The Ten Volumes of Arrayed Tao", and the most mysterious "Three Thousand Methods". Only two sections can be seen clearly, including a long preface to "The Great Tao of Freedom" and about ten sentences of cultivation methods, as well as the dense records in "The Chapter of Strange Things". The rest of the parts, including the subsequent oral formulas of "The Great Tao of Freedom", are all hidden in the mist, and their true appearance cannot be seen.

  Yang Tianwen patiently read through the notes on "The Self-Cultivation of the Great Tao" and gained a general understanding of the path to cultivation. As it is said, ordinary people cultivate themselves to transcend the cycle of life and death and achieve the carefree and leisurely state of being an immortal, which goes against the natural order and has many taboos and precautions. The most forbidden thing is to indulge in killing the innocent and accumulating endless sin. One should accumulate merit and virtue instead. Yang Tianwen thought it was good that he didn't understand anything, so it's better to be humble.

  After finishing reading, Yang Tianwen couldn't help but start to feel a headache. This was too much! In fact, most of it was about cultivation guidance and key points. After reading these, Yang Tianwen really felt that cultivation was indeed very difficult, like embarking on a road of no return. A slight mistake would result in the destruction of both body and soul.

  After considering for less than three minutes, Yang Tian asked with determination and set foot on his own cultivation journey to seek the way of immortality, starting his own legend.

  From the Zi Xiao Bao Lu, Yang Tianwen read the first sentence of the tomb-building and energy-practicing mantra from start to finish, only looking at the part he could see. As someone who had never practiced before, Yang Tianwen wouldn't rashly start practicing right away. The first step was to understand it. Ancient texts were definitely no problem for Yang Tianwen, after all, he majored in archaeology and had a hobby of collecting ancient books, so his level of proficiency in ancient texts was guaranteed.

  After understanding it, the next step was to ponder and analyze. This Zi Xiao Bao Lu's foundation-building method emphasized completely unblocking every meridian in the body, as well as all 365 major acupoints and numerous others, unblocking the two bridges between heaven and earth, forming a complete whole-body circulation loop.

  Yang Tianwen had once read a book that said the human body was like a universe. At the time, Yang Tianwen didn't quite believe it, but now he saw that indeed, the human body was so complex.

  Interest, Yang Tianwen was extremely interested in this discovery, and he had always been passionate about the unknown existence with a strong desire for knowledge.

  The Gong Fa is one thing, but the various unheard-of spiritual medicines, strange and exotic treasures, strange materials, and divine beasts recorded in the Qi Wu Pian are even more astonishing to Yang Tianwen. Each has an illustration, and it's the kind that makes you feel like you're right there, just like seeing it with your own eyes. Unfortunately, you can only look but not touch. This greatly broadened Yang Tianwen's horizons, his extremely high IQ, and his ability to memorize everything he saw, allowing him to record them all one by one.

  The theory is almost done, next is the practice. However, Yang Tian asked himself if he knew his own affairs, and it's certain that he's absolutely not a cultivation genius, even his qualifications are ordinary to the extreme. But in the 21st century, it's not about physical strength, but about brains, so there's nothing to say. But putting this aside, it's somewhat depressing.

  But still have to cultivate! Only come slowly. Three months passed quickly, what made Yang Tianwen happy was that he finally felt the so-called "qi" sensation. Practicing qi, not bad, it's just practicing qi. This first step is still about developing oneself, rather than absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the start.

  It took three months to get the hang of it, which made Yang Tianwen feel somewhat relieved. The book said that those with good aptitude could master it in one day, while those who were inferior would take a year. Although he didn't master it in just one day, at least he didn't take a whole year either. Three months was still considered quite excellent.
