Chapter 68

Please vote for Lin Da for the monthly ticket, thank you.

After a moment of surprise, Ning Wuxie closed his eyes again.

With his divine sense, he saw the surging pill energy flowing between his chest and abdomen, and a thread of black mixed in the silver demonic energy. This thread of black was extremely faint, and it would be hard to notice if not for careful observation.

However, these were not what shocked Ning Wuxie. What shocked him was his five organs and six腑 (viscera).

At this moment, a flame was quietly burning in his heart, emitting warmth; a grain of yellow sand was suspended in his spleen, emitting a faint yellow light, giving a sense of thickness; a golden dagger an inch long stood in his lungs, with a faint golden aura swirling around, exuding a sharp and piercing feeling; a deep blue drop of water fell into his kidneys, emitting a bright blue light, and a cool sensation permeated his body, cleansing it.

The four primordial energies were all painstakingly cultivated by Ning Wuxie. In his liver, a tender green sprout had grown an oval, thick leaf, emitting a soft green light, exuding a sense of vitality.

The most important part of refining the five organs and six腑 (viscera) is the five organs. Once the five organs are refined, the six腑 (viscera) will follow.

As the wood energy circulated, the five organs formed a cycle: wood generates fire, fire burns earth, earth conceals metal, metal transforms into water, and water nourishes wood. The cycle of the five elements is endless. The originally surging pill energy was rapidly refined in this transformation, at a speed ten times faster than before the five elements were complete!

The five primordial energies nourished his body, and the *Taiyin Jue* circulated, with the demonic energy in his body flowing continuously, giving a sense of completeness and perfection, ten times stronger than before!

With the five elements complete, Ning Wuxie looked excitedly at the five primordial energies circulating in his organs. The reason he had not practiced martial arts, had average combat strength, and did not learn techniques was because the five elements in his body were not complete. Learning martial arts after that would affect his future performance.

The first level of the *Taiyin Jue* does not emphasize combat strength; it is a process of nurturing the body, like a sword that has not yet been sharpened. Nurturing the five organs is like polishing the sword body, making it more resilient and powerful.

After such polishing, when the sword is sharpened, it will shine brightly and be invincible.

He had only slept for three days, yet the wood energy had spontaneously generated, and even sprouted a green bud? Ning Wuxie was both shocked and deeply puzzled.

"Could it be the Mo Ye Sword? It absorbed my blood and then felt embarrassed, so it transferred primordial energy to me?"

Touching his chin, Ning Wuxie lost the mood to cultivate. Now that the five elements were circulating continuously, his primordial energy would continue to strengthen even without cultivation. He was already at the peak of the Qi Transformation stage, and further cultivation would be useless unless he broke through to the Qi Condensation stage.

After thinking for a long time, Ning Wuxie still couldn't figure it out, so he attributed the increase in primordial energy to the Mo Ye Sword.

What Ning Wuxie didn't know was that the Mo Ye Sword was just one aspect.

Today's result must have had a cause in the past. When Ning Wuxie was cultivating on Jin Hua Mountain, he inadvertently drew the essence of grass and trees into his body. This essence of grass and trees is the purest wood energy in the world, extremely rare. Even the sloppy old Taoist was amazed by Ning Wuxie's good fortune when he saw it.

This essence of grass and trees settled in his body, becoming the cause.

The divine sword has a spirit.

The Mo Ye Sword has always been a spiritual sword. Lan Hongye's obtaining the Mo Ye Sword was also a stroke of luck. Unfortunately, no matter how many times she refined it, it was all in vain, and she even provoked the Mo Ye Sword's counterattack. The magical power she used to refine the sword was all left inside the Mo Ye Sword.

After Ning Wuxie's blood was absorbed by the Mo Ye Sword, the magical power inside the sword was transferred to his body. At that time, Ning Wuxie was already unconscious, and the essence of grass and trees, which had settled in his body, guided the magical power into his liver, thus making the five elements complete.

Good fortune and misfortune are interdependent, and cause and effect are cyclical. If it weren't for the essence of grass and trees, Lan Hongye's magical power entering Ning Wuxie's body would have caused great damage, making his injuries even worse. Without Lan Hongye's magical power, the essence of grass and trees could not have refined his liver, and the five elements would not have been complete.

If the five elements were not complete, the Mo Ye Sword absorbing a large amount of Ning Wuxie's blood would have left him without a protective aura, and he would have died from blood loss.

People usually die from exhaustion, but if Ning Wuxie had died from blood loss, he would have been the only one in thousands of years.

Every cause and effect has a predetermined number. Ning Wuxie couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.

Now that the five elements were complete, cultivation was useless. Ning Wuxie's consciousness sank into his sea of consciousness, where a thousand-character blood-colored demonic text floated, emitting a bright blood light. Ning Wuxie focused and saw that indeed, after the first ten characters, another ten characters emitted a crystalline blood glow.

Each character of the demonic text contained different information. These ten characters contained no less information than hundreds of books.

Immersing his consciousness in a mysterious demonic character, a stream of information came.

"Liver, stores the soul, belongs to wood. Gallbladder fire resides within.

Heart, stores the spirit, is the sovereign fire, and the pericardium is the ministerial fire, acting on behalf of the sovereign.

Spleen, stores the will, belongs to earth, and is the mother of all things.

Lungs, store the po (vitality), belong to metal, and control the body's primordial energy.

Kidneys, store the will, belong to water, and are the source of the sky."

These describe the wonders of the five organs, operating according to the five elements.

"Gallbladder, belongs to wood, is the lesser yang ministerial fire, and generates all things.

Stomach, belongs to earth, is the receptacle, and is the sea of water and grain.

Large intestine, belongs to metal, is the transformer, and is the official of transmission.

Small intestine, secretes water and grain, is the official of reception.

Bladder, stores fluids, is the organ of the bladder, and transforms through qi, known as the official of the state."

The most special is the sixth腑 (viscera).

"Triple Burner, is the function of the ministerial fire, distributes the primordial energy of the life gate, controls the rise and fall, and circulates between heaven and earth, leading the qi of the five organs and six腑 (viscera), known as the clear middle organ."

Outside the triple burner is the life gate, the source of the ministerial fire, the beginning of heaven and earth, storing essence and generating blood, descending as leakage, ascending as lead, and controlling the primordial energy of the triple burner.

The first character explains the changes in the five organs and six腑 (viscera) during cultivation and the cultivation method, summarizing and concluding the first level of cultivation.

"Five energies converge to the origin, five emperors are born, six phases merge into one, six spirits emerge..."

It describes the appearance of supernatural powers when cultivation reaches a high level, with the body generating five emperors and deities, a technique worthy of immortals, making it highly desirable.

"I wonder who passed down this *Taiyin Jue*, hidden in the bloodline of the wolf demon clan. Such a powerful technique should not be inferior to the immortal techniques of the heavens, yet why is it not well-known?"

Ning Wuxie remembered that on the journey to the West, there were a few wolf demon cultivators, such as the gray wolf Lingxu Zi under the Black Bear King of Black Wind Mountain, who was unfortunately killed by Sun Wukong, and the wolf demon Kui Mu Lang of Bowl Mountain and Moon Cave, who was a wolf demon from the time of the封神 (Fengshen) era, with formidable strength, and the iron-backed gray wolf of Hidden Mist Mountain.

"There are exactly three, excluding Kui Mu Lang, all of whom are minor characters and gray wolves. However, in the inherited memories, the wolf clan has many powerful sub-clans. Among the vast wolf clan, gray wolves are only mid-level bloodlines."

"Other sub-clans like white wolves, snow wolves, and silver wolves are highly intelligent. In the world of gods and demons, awakening intelligence is quite simple. At least these sub-clans are definitely easier to awaken than gray wolves. With a technique like the *Taiyin Jue*, even if not great demons, there should be some famous demons, but why have none appeared?"

Ning Wuxie suddenly felt that there was still much he didn't know about this world. The journey to the West only described a segment of the Western Regions, and the Four Great Continents are far from simple. On the journey to the West, many immortals and demons did not appear.

"Since I'm here, not uncovering everything would be a great regret."

Ning Wuxie's eyes sparkled. He had thought that knowing the journey to the West meant understanding everything, but it turned out to be like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. This world is still shrouded in mist, not fully revealed.

This will be a world of incredible wonder!
