Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 45 Experimental Subject No. 004 - Lord Taishan

Early the next morning.

Had breakfast.

Xiao Zizai then took Chen Duo to sit beside the waterfall and began to recite Buddhist scriptures and explain their meanings. The sound of recitation echoed among the mountains.

Xia He, Tu Junfang and Xue Fan seemed quite interested in this. They all had to do morning practice anyway, and Xue Fan also needed guidance in practice, so they simply sat together.

Seeing this scene, Xia Ye smiled and went straight back to the clinic and into the treatment room. He had placed a lot of surveillance magic weapons near the clinic and the new house, so he would naturally know if an outsider approached.

Sitting at the desk and taking out the computer, he skillfully opened the "Experimental Subject File". Since there were two new people, he had to update the file before starting to prepare the medicine:
[Experimental Subject File:]

[Experimental Subject No. 004 - Lord Taishan]

[Experimental subject: Xue Fan]

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 23】

[Experimental stage: not yet started]

……

[Experimental Subject File:]

[Experimental Subject No. 005——Yin Shen Gui Xian]

[Experimental subject: Tu Junfang]

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 35】

[Experimental stage: not yet started]

……

That's right, after talking with Tu Junfang, his code name was decided. Since he wanted to follow the "path of ghost immortals" and was not involved in the souls of the world like Xue Fan, then the title of "Emperor Fengdu" was not appropriate and unnecessary.

This guy is a "researcher" who likes to practice alone and keep to himself. He is also a relatively pure "practitioner of enlightenment" in the traditional sense, so the title of "yin god ghost immortal" is just right.

The "Zhonglu Chuandao Ji" says: "Ghost immortals are one of the five immortals. They are detached from the underworld, their deities are unknown, their ghost gates have no surnames, and their three mountains have no names. Although they do not enter the cycle of reincarnation, it is difficult for them to return to Pengying. In the end, they have nowhere to go, and they can only be reborn and die."

It is also said: "People who practice cultivation but do not understand the great way but want to achieve success quickly, their bodies are like dead wood. Their hearts are like purple ash, their spirits are kept within, their minds are not scattered, and when they are in a state of concentration, a Yin spirit emerges. They are pure spirit ghosts, not pure Yang immortals. Because their Yin spirits are not scattered, they are called ghost immortals."

Although it describes the various drawbacks of "ghost immortals", such as "only giving up after reincarnation", "not understanding the great way but wanting to achieve success quickly", etc., these are after all classics and legends. In cultivation, one should still focus on oneself, and the outcome is entirely up to oneself...

Don't take it seriously.

And what Xia Ye and Tu Junfang want to obtain is "transcendence in the Yin" and "not entering the cycle of reincarnation". They hope to eventually glimpse the great way with their "clear and bright ghost bodies" and achieve "ghost immortals" by using the method of "coming out of the Yin spirit"!
"If I can really achieve it, maybe it can add another path for those who practice cultivation in this world..." After finishing typing, Xia Ye whispered to himself and then put away the computer.

Next, he would start to determine the prescription and prepare the elixir. Since the soul collected by Xue Fan's innate ability was the "Ghost of Qingming" and would be helpful to Tu Junfang's experiment, it would be more beneficial to start with Xue Fan.

After a moment's thought, Xia Ye stood up, opened the medicine cabinet, and began to search...

……

……

half a month later.

"Old Xue, come on."

After breakfast, Xue Fan was planning to continue asking Tu Junfang and the others for advice on cultivation, but when he saw Xia Ye suddenly waving at him, he couldn't help but stare.

"Is this... my turn?"

He was immediately surprised.

These days, he had heard Xiao Zizai and Xia He talk a lot about the difference in their situations before and after meeting Xia Ye. It was really a world of difference, which made him look forward to it.

"..." Seeing this, Tu Junfang on the side couldn't help but glance at him. Xue Fan felt itchy in his heart, and so did he. However, Xia Ye had already explained the pros and cons to him, so he suppressed his anger and was not in a hurry.

Afterwards, Xue Fan followed Xia Ye towards the clinic, while the others began today's morning lessons, some chanting scriptures, some refining Qi, and performing their own practices.

soon……

"Go sit on the bed, adjust your breathing, and calm your body and mind."

After entering the treatment room, Xia Ye greeted everyone and then walked to the medicine cabinet to search.

"okay."

Xue Fan nodded upon hearing this and sat cross-legged very obediently. Over the past few days, with the guidance of Tu Junfang and others, he had also learned the basics of "refining Qi" and "entering meditation", and soon closed his eyes.

"Hush-huh-"

After a while, his breathing gradually became even and his mind became calm. Xia Ye also took out a medicine bottle and placed a pill in his palm.

"No need to open your eyes, just stay in this state and swallow the pill directly."

The next second, a reminder sounded in his mind.

"Um……"

As Xia Ye said, Xue Fan swallowed the pill in one gulp, and then he felt a coolness sliding down his throat, then flowing through his limbs and bones.

"Well?!"

Then, he snorted softly, and his right hand subconsciously grasped the soul-guiding flag at hand. The true energy in his body unexpectedly flowed out of his body uncontrollably and connected with the soul-guiding flag.

wow——

It can be seen that Xue Fan's soul-guiding banner is now very different from the previous one. The pole is like black jade and the banner cloth is like satin. Whether it is the material, mysterious meaning or the operating efficiency of the true Qi, there is a world of difference.

This was naturally also the work of Xia Ye. After two weeks of research, he discovered that Xue Fan's abilities could be enhanced through the Soul-Guiding Banner in his hand, allowing him to exert even greater power. He then helped upgrade it, integrating mysterious elements and refining materials into it to turn it into a magic weapon.

On the surface, its appearance does not seem to have changed much, but with the blessing of elements such as "binding spirits and dispatching generals", "nourishing the Yin spirits", and "divine will power", it has become a powerful treasure that can gather all spirits, and it has become one with Xue Fan, like an extension of his body.

At this moment, when Xue Fan held it, the medicinal power in his body naturally resonated with the mysterious power on the Soul-Guiding Banner. For a moment, two forces with different sources but similar effects acted on Xue Fan's body at the same time, transforming him!
"good……"

Everything was just as Xia Ye had expected. At this moment, he stared at Xue Fan with a flash of light in his eyes. He saw everything clearly and also saw the effects of the two forces in his body.

At this moment, his body, which was originally inclined to be cold, began to transform into "extreme yin", and a touch of jade color appeared on his flesh. Yin energy overflowed in his body, and his skin was shining with jade light. The whole person seemed to have turned into a piece of "cold jade"!
This is also a detail that Xia Ye paid special attention to. You know, the human body must pay attention to the "balance of yin and yang". Although practicing Yin method, you can't completely abandon Yang and only have Yin. Doing so will definitely cause disasters...

The jade qi is warm and moist, and using it to contain the yin qi can achieve the purpose of "neutralization" and "balance". The precious jade itself has the function of "nourishing the true spirit" and can also strengthen the body!
Soon, Xue Fan's entire body turned into "jade", including the meridians in his body. Wrapped in the fluorescent light, lines of dark and cold true Qi also flowed along with it, merging with the mysterious power and medicinal power.

At the same time, a majestic aura like a mountain suddenly emerged and penetrated into Xue Fan's brows, causing his eyelids to twitch, and the shadow of a mountain condensed in his mind.

"As the Lord of Mount Tai, you should have the will of the mountain and the heart to guard it. You should also have the courage to stand still while the world is at peace, and the perseverance to stand alone in the abyss of ghosts. Only then can you set foot on the top of the fairy mountain!"

At this moment, what Xia Ye had said two days ago automatically emerged in Xue Fan's mind, making his mind immersed in the shadow of the mountain!

In a moment, as soon as he had a thought, a figure like him, as fast as a firefly, appeared at the foot of the mountain. He looked up at the mountain in front of him and began to climb, heading straight to the top of the mountain!

"Oh?"

Seeing this scene, even Xia Ye narrowed his eyes and showed surprise. He had not originally imagined this step. This was entirely due to Xue Fan's "understanding" and "original intention"...

As a result, he couldn't help but look forward to the scenery after climbing to the top of the mountain, so he calmed down and looked carefully, with a smile on his face.

Just like that, about half an hour later...

Boom!
Inside the Niwan Palace and in the mind, the light and shadow representing Xue Fan stepped hard on the top of the mountain, looked down at everything below, his momentum was as majestic as a mountain, and his eyes were arrogant!
And then, he retracted his gaze and raised his head again. A surge of will suddenly condensed and pierced the sky, causing the clouds on the mountain top to move and the wind to rise!
"This guy...is quite ambitious!"

Seeing this, Xia Ye couldn't help but admire in his heart. He didn't expect that this simple and honest guy in front of him would have such lofty ambitions, and his heart to reach the sky was so determined!
But he changed his mind and realized it was no wonder. After all, those with pure minds were closer to Taoism. When they entered into cultivation, it would be like a fish or a dragon entering the sea or a roc ascending to the sky. Their path of cultivation might exceed expectations and their future would be promising!
Swish!
The next moment, as the wind and clouds in Xue Fan's mind surged and his thoughts gathered, he opened his eyes. The hand holding the soul-guiding flag suddenly tightened, and a black gas instantly floated up and condensed into a human shape...

It’s that old man Wang!
Immediately afterwards, under the guidance of the Qi, Xue Fan raised his hand and put his two fingers together to touch the old man's brow...

wow——

A cold and mysterious force surged, causing the black aura around the old man to instantly dissipate, revealing his true face!
