Chapter 48, Dao Palace Fifth Heaven, Five Elements Perfection [Please continue reading!]
Making Su Ye the Holy Son would not only comply with ancestral teachings and fulfill the will of the Imperial Weapon, but also allow the innate Dao embryo to establish a substantial connection with Yaochi.
A win-win-win situation.
Su Ye did not answer immediately.
But the fact that this happened was already surprising enough for him.
On his way to Yaochi Holy Land, Su Ye had considered that Yaochi Holy Land might recruit him because of his innate Dao embryo.
After all, a physique like that of an innate Dao embryo would be treasured and cherished in any sacred land.
But Su Ye's expected recruitment was at most to give him a peripheral role such as a guest elder.
Those who act as henchmen for the Jade Pool Holy Land receive its protection and resources.
Such transactions are commonplace in the cultivation world.
However, the Queen Mother of the West gave him the identity of "Holy Son of Yaochi".
This means that the Yaochi Holy Land's heritage, resources, connections, and protection are all open to him.
But at the same time, it also means that he will be bound to Yaochi to a certain extent.
Yaochi Holy Land is a top-tier power in the Big Dipper, with the Western Emperor's lineage passed down for eternity, and the Imperial Weapon Immortal Tears Green Gold Pagoda suppressing its fortune.
With such a powerful backer, his survival pressure in Beidou will be greatly reduced.
If the Yao Guang Holy Land wants to take action against him again, they should carefully consider whether they can afford the consequences.
Holy land resources and profound heritage are what he lacked most when he was alone in Beidou.
As for the identity of the Holy Son...
It's just a title; it doesn't affect his freedom to travel through the heavens.
Moreover, the goodwill shown by the Yaochi Holy Land towards the innate Dao embryo is indeed more genuine than that of any other force in the Big Dipper.
From the moment Yao Jin rescued him to the moment the Queen Mother of the West personally came forward to treat him with sincerity, none of this was fake.
"Can."
Su Ye nodded slightly and uttered a single word casually.
A glint of light flashed in the clear eyes of the Holy Maiden of Yaochi.
The Queen Mother of the West smiled slightly, nodded in satisfaction, and took out a jade slip from her sleeve and handed it over.
"This is the complete volume of the *Xihuang Jing*."
"The five volumes of Wheel Sea, Dao Palace, Four Extremes, Transformation Dragon, and Immortal Platform are all included, except for the Forbidden Chapters."
She continued calmly, "The Forbidden Chapter will be taught to you personally after you enter the Sendai Secret Realm."
Su Ye took it and probed it with his divine sense.
The jade simplified into a stream of light that surged into the sea of consciousness.
This is a one-time transmission jade slip containing the entire "Western Emperor Scripture".
It includes not only the Dao Palace chapter, but also the chapters on the Sea of Wheels, the Four Extremes, the Dragon Transformation, and the Sendai.
The Forbidden Chapter is the only one missing.
The forbidden chapters of the Imperial Canon have never been passed on; this is not directed at him, but rather a rule of all Imperial Canons.
The Forbidden Chapter records the Emperor's most secret methods, involving the mysteries of the Heavenly Heart Mark, which even direct disciples may not be able to access.
Su Ye withdrew his divine sense and was about to take out the jade slip containing the Wheel Sea Chapter of the Daoist Scripture.
The Queen Mother of the West raised her hand to stop him.
"No need."
She said in a calm tone, "The Jade Pool has no shortage of imperial scriptures, so you can keep your Daoist scripture for yourself."
Su Ye was slightly taken aback.
The Wheel Sea Chapter of the Daoist Scripture is hailed as the strongest Wheel Sea Scripture, and its value is no less than that of the Dao Palace Chapter of the Western Emperor Scripture.
The Queen Mother of the West refused to accept it.
"but……"
The Queen Mother of the West's gaze turned solemn again, and she said, "You need to make a vow of Daoist faith."
"The *Xihuang Jing* must not be circulated outside the palace!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Ye solemnly swore an oath.
The moment the oath was uttered, an invisible contract mark slowly took shape deep within the purple sea of suffering, and the resonance of the Great Dao echoed within his body.
That was the Great Dao's response to the vow of the Dao Heart.
The Queen Mother of the West nodded slightly, looking satisfied.
The Holy Maiden of Yaochi pushed the freshly poured tea in front of Su Ye and said softly, "Holy Son, please."
The way they address each other has been changed.
Behind the white veil, a hint of a smile was clearly visible in those clear eyes.
Back in the bamboo hut, Su Ye sat down on the futon. The moment his consciousness sank in, a vast amount of scripture poured into his sea of consciousness like a celestial river flowing backward.
He remained submerged for seven days.
first day.
The ingenuity of the Dao Palace chapter of the Xihuang Scripture far exceeded his expectations.
If we compare it to the Dao Palace scroll in the Daoist scriptures.
It was a wide official road, based on the principle of the balance of the five elements, cultivating the five internal organs simultaneously, and progressing step by step, suitable for all human cultivators.
Moderation, harmony, and inclusiveness.
The Dao Palace chapter of the Xihuang Jing is completely different.
It is a shortcut specifically carved out for the innate Dao embryo.
Based on the inherently close-to-the-Dao nature of the Dao Embryo, it skips the process that ordinary cultivators need to spend a lot of time comprehending the laws.
It directly draws the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth into the five internal organs and spiritual treasures, shaping each Dao Palace deity into an "incarnation of the Great Dao".
Day three.
He finally understood the difference in quality between the two scriptures.
There is no superiority or inferiority.
The Daoist scriptures are a gift to all humankind, while the Western Emperor scriptures are exclusively for those born with innate Daoist embryos.
Different paths, same destination.
This realization gave him a clearer vision for his future path.
Based on the Tao Te Ching, it is moderate, peaceful, inclusive, and has the most solid foundation.
Using the *Xihuang Jing* as a reference, he incorporated the essence of the character "化" (transformation) into his own understanding.
There is no superiority or inferiority between the two; they simply follow different paths.
This realization gave him a clearer vision for his future path.
Based on the Daoist scriptures and with reference to the Western Emperor scriptures, he created a scripture that truly belonged to him after reaching the realm of sages.
Seventh day.
He put away the jade slip.
A slight tremor suddenly stirred within his Dao Palace.
The entrance to the lungs' spiritual repository began to loosen.
That was the power of metal responding to his insights gained over the past seven days.
it's time.
The eighth day, early morning.
Su Ye sat cross-legged beside the spiritual spring on the west side of the main peak.
His body was enveloped in a surge of purple-gold divine power, which made the bamboo forest within a radius of ten feet rustle.
He did not rush to knock on the door of the lung spirit's treasury.
First, use the Five Elements balancing method from the Daoist scriptures to stabilize the four internal organs: heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys.
Under his guidance, the four Daoist deities began to operate, with the heart belonging to fire, the liver to wood, the spleen to earth, and the kidneys to water. The power of the four elements formed an incomplete cycle within his body.
It lacks gold.
Then he invoked the Metal Element Infusion Technique from the Western Emperor Scripture.
The portal to the spiritual repositories of the lungs appeared in the sea of consciousness.
It was a giant golden door, its surface covered with sword-like Dao patterns.
Su Ye took a deep breath.
Divine power condensed into a purple-gold hammer, which slammed down heavily.
boom!
A crack appeared in the doorway.
The moment the sharp, metallic energy burst forth from the crack, it was as if a thousand swords were simultaneously piercing through the body's meridians.
Ordinary cultivators often need the protection of elders at this critical juncture, who use medicinal power to suppress the rampaging of the golden energy in order to overcome this challenge.
If one is not careful, the metal energy will backfire, and the meridians will be severed.
But Su Ye is a pre-natal Dao embryo.
After the power of metal surged into the body, it did not wreak havoc, but instead, like a weary bird returning to its nest, it actively integrated into the meridians.
Under the influence of the Great Dao, the extremely domineering golden aura becomes as gentle as a pool of water.
The gateway to the lungs, the repository of the spirit, is completely opened.
Just then, I felt a warmth in my chest.
The Demon Emperor's Holy Heart beat again.
