Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Binghuo Yanglei_1

“Actually, Xuan, even if you didn’t mention it today, I was already considering having you cultivate another strain of Zhenyuan, to balance the internal Cold Power. However, the time is not ripe yet.”

After dinner, Earl Chengyi, Li Chengji, led Li Xuan into a three-story book tower in the inner courtyard,” I originally thought that you would have to reach the fourth house level before facing the problem of Zhenyuan backlash. I never expected that with your exceptional talent, you already have such backlash even before you reach the third house level.”

At this point, he had reached the third floor, his expression a mix of relief and worry,” I can give you the Visualization Chart for the Thunder Style Zhenyuan, but I don’t know whether it is the right choice for you.”

Li Xuan asked with understanding,” Does my father worry that I can’t stabilize the force of Yuan?”

Despite his original self’s lack of skills, he was well versed in the basic knowledge of cultivation.

The so-called ‘Zhenyuan backlash’, internally the five elements are out of balance, and externally, there’s an invasion of reverse energy.

Those who cultivate Ice Style naturally accumulate cold in the body; those practicing Fire Style invariably have body temperature far exceeding normal, even to the point of self-combustion; those who practice Earth Style, their body becomes heavier and even parts of their body gets covered in stone.

Then again, forces are mutual, just like when Li Xuan was fighting against that Spellcaster at the fourth house level. Certainly, he froze that Spellcaster with one palm, but he himself had to withstand some Cold Power. The Fire Style cultivator could end someone with one incinerating strike, but their own internal temperature must also increase drastically in the process and worst cases could lead to self-combustion – such situations only tend to get worse with time.

This is the biggest obstacle that cultivators have faced since ancient times in their pursuit of eternal life, and the superior the methods of cultivation, the purer and more extreme the Zhenyuan, the more severe the backlash.

The only viable strategy is to balance the two extremes and harmonize Yin and Yang.

However, there is a problem. How can two contradictory and opposing type of Zhenyuan be harmonized? How can they achieve balance and coexistence?

Just like Li Xuan right now, If he wants to practice Thunder Style, it will inevitably interfere with the Ice Style Zhenyuan in his body. The worst-case scenario is that his Thunder Style cultivation will fail, and it will disperse his Cold Power, causing it to collapse and erode.

So the usually stable method is to wait until one’s power has stabilized before cross-cultivating others.

Alternatively, disregard the issue of balance. Although the cultivation speed would be much faster, it can hit a ceiling in the future, and damage the body’s Yuan Qi and lifespan.

“Otherwise?” Li Chengji retorted,” Thunder is an extremely Yang and firm force, which is much more difficult to cultivate than Fire Style, and it conflicts even more with Ice Power. Furthermore, in terms of Thunder Style, I can’t guide you. Among us, Ice Style cultivators who can balance Yin and Yang with Thunder Style and ultimately ascend to the heavenly level have only been our progenitor, the first Earl Chengyi, and that’s just in these thousand years. So originally, I thought about waiting a few years, then seek the first half of the Visualization Chart of Fire Style from your sister-in-law, or like your father, find a treasure of fire element to help suppress your Cold Power. But fate has a way of making a fool of people.”

Li Xuan couldn’t help but laugh. He didn’t expect his father to have such thoughts.

As for Li Chengji’s concerns, he felt that the problem was not significant.

In his previous world, people knew that under certain conditions, all energy and matter could be converted into each other.

The enormous heat generated from nuclear fusion can be used for cooling, which could supply the air conditioning for a large city without any problems and can even create an area of absolute zero; flammable ice, as well as solid alcohol at -114.1℃ can burn rapidly. Liquid helium-3 and tritium at extremely low temperatures, yet they are materials for nuclear fusion.

As for thunderbolts and cold ice – modern refrigeration equipment is driven entirely by electricity. Electricity can both cool and heat; transforming flames into thunderbolts is also simple.

“Here, take these!” Li Chengji took out two scrolls from the bookshelf and gave them to Li Xuan,” Just read them here, don’t take them out. Even though it’s incomplete, it’s at least something passed down by our ancestor. Even these few, incomplete Visualization Charts are highly sought after in the Jin Dynasty’s cultivation world, and you would need at least forty significant contributions at the Liudao Division to trade for.”

Then he sighed incredulously,” Our family’s progenitor was also quite abnormal; he could balance Yin and Yang with this incomplete Thunder Style visualization method and ascend to the heavenly level. It’s simply beyond comprehension.”

Li Xuan spent that night in the book tower; when he opened the first picture, he was astounded.

In this picture, there was an image of a tiny bolt of lightning. However, when he touched and sensed it with his Divine Consciousness, he found that a real current of electricity was sealed inside.

The second chart was similar, but the strength and quantity of the current were much greater, and the chart’s name was ‘Binghuo Yanglei’. Amidst the thunderbolts, there was a powerful force of flames and a mighty ability to drive out evil and ward off demons.

There were a few other charts following it, but Li Chengji believed that Li Xuan couldn’t use them yet because they were extremely advanced. If he rashly tried to visualize them, he would risk hurting himself.

However, Li Xuan found the process of visualization quite easy. He effortlessly completed the visualization of the second chart – allowing ‘Binghuo Yanglei’ to flow within his body.

Afterward, he daringly kept increasing the voltage and current of this ‘Binghuo Yanglei’, until the immense burden induced in his Primordial Spirit forced him to slow down to about eighty percent of the limit.

The key point was that this didn’t affect the Ice Style Zhenyuan within his body.

According to the energy utilization process that Li Xuan had imagined, the Cold Power within his body hadn’t weakened at all but rather increased significantly. He felt he had come a bit closer to the third house level.

And on that night, when Li Xuan finished his cultivation and was resting, indeed his lower abdomen was pleasantly warm, without the previous feeling of harboring an ice cube inside. Even the coldness and paralysis feeling in his chest had greatly reduced compared to before the cultivation of the Thunder Element.

Just when Li Xuan, filled with anticipation, was about to receive the Li Family’s inherited Thunder Style from Li Chengji’s hand, Jiang Hanyun, who had just finished his official duties in the Zhuque Hall of the Liudao Division, heard a knock at the door before he could catch his breath.

“What’s the matter?” Stretching out lazily, Jiang Hanyun looked somewhat displeased at Yue Qianqian, who had stepped into the room: “Can’t it wait until tomorrow?”

Lately, she had been working until midnight every day and was utterly exhausted.

Jiang Hanyun thought to herself that unless the sky was falling, no one would stop her from heading to the restaurant across the street for a pot of wine after work.

Today, her subordinate Li Xuan was treating everyone, and it was rumored that there would be plenty of wine and meat.

“Sir Xiaowei.” Yue Qianqian was visibly startled and couldn’t speak fluently. “I think… this matter is very urgent. You should… you better take a look.”

She carefully walked to the desk, placing a sheet of xuan paper in front of Jiang Hanyun: “I’ve compiled the recent case files concerning the wolf attacks in Jiangning County, and something doesn’t seem right.”

“Is this a map of the area around Jiangjun Mountain? Are the red dots the crime scenes?”

Jiang Hanyun immediately recognized the map drawn by Yue Qianqian. It was the terrain around Jiangjun Mountain, marked with red dots made with cinnabar.

Her pupils contracted and her face drastically changed as she noticed that these red dots strangely circled around a certain area on the map, forming an irregular circle.

“I suspect there’s a problem within this range of valleys.” Yue Qianqian’s expression was heavy: “Li Xuan mentioned the victims’ hearts, livers, and lungs were removed, leaving only their intestines. It’s very strange and suspicious. When I looked at the case files for the wolf attacks, I found several other victims had been treated in the same way, suggesting that these organs might have been taken for some kind of evil ritual.”

Jiang Hanyun remained silent before hurriedly walking out of the room and riding away from Zhuque Hall

About two hours later, Jiang Hanyun was standing outside a valley on the southern side of Jiangjun Mountain, overlooking the area below from a height.

After a while, she clenched her fists, closed her eyes, and snorted in anger: “A bunch of animals bred by bitches!”
