Shen Luo looked at the skull tattoo on his shoulder and felt a chill run down his spine.
The black skull tattoo was extremely realistic. At first glance, it looked like a real skull was biting his shoulder, as if it could fly out of his body at any time. However, there was no trace of the bite marks from before.
Previously, he had encountered many strange things in his dream, so his tolerance was much higher. However, seeing this in the dark still made his heart tremble.
Shen Luo took a deep breath and calmed himself down before carefully examining the tattoo.
The black lines that made up the tattoo looked like the runes of a talisman. It gave off a mysterious feeling.
Other than looking a little creepy, the tattoo didn't hurt or itch. He didn't feel anything at all. If he didn't take off his clothes and see it, he probably wouldn't have noticed it.
"Could it be related to the white skull from before? Could it be that this skull tattoo was made from the white skull? "Shen Luo thought to himself as he touched his chin.
He reached out to touch the tattoo and found that the skin was the same as the rest of the tattoo. There were no bumps or depressions, as if it was really a tattoo.
He used his fingernails to scratch the tattoo a few times. Other than causing some pain, the tattoo didn't seem to be affected at all. It was as if the skin had always been there.
Shen Luo thought for a while and sat down cross-legged. He started to circulate the Yang Force from his Dantian and directed it to his shoulder.
Not long after, his entire shoulder was shrouded in a layer of faint red light, and the surface of his skin was faintly suffused with a layer of red light. However, the black skull tattoo on his shoulder, except for the eye sockets, nose, and other hollowed-out areas that were also faintly red, the rest of the tattoo was still black, and there was no difference at all.
"Now that my Yang Force has been perfected, the Yang Force it produces is much stronger than before. If it was an evil thing, it shouldn't be so calm."
Shen Luo didn't stop there. He tried a few more methods, such as punching, slapping, biting, and dripping water, in an attempt to remove the black skull tattoo. However, without exception, all of them ended in failure.
"Forget it. It looks like there's nothing serious for now. Let's leave it at that for now. Speaking of which, if it weren't for this fortuitous encounter, the Minor Yang Art would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens for me. I hope this nameless spell won't be so difficult. "Shen Luo didn't continue to dwell on it and started to think about the nameless spell again.
According to Sage Feng Yang and Luo shi, if he were to master the Minor Solar Transformation Art, his lifespan would be extended by two to three years. However, whether this amount of time was enough for him to achieve his goal was another matter altogether.
But no matter what, he had already come this far. It was impossible for him to shrink back.
Shen Luo thought so in his heart. He stood up and swung his arms. He stepped into the stream and sat down cross-legged in the shallow water. The stream just happened to pass his chest and stop below his neck.
Then, he closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully recalling the first level of the nameless technique. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he began to breathe according to the technique.
This nameless technique was different from the Minor Yang Art. It focused more on the connection with the outside world. As he breathed, he also had to concentrate on sensing the outside world.
Shen Luo wasn't very used to it at first. After stumbling around for a while, he gradually got into the mood.
Under the guidance of the technique, the Yang energy in his dantian began to slowly circulate in his body. After circulating one cycle, it returned to his dantian with a faint warmth.
At the same time, traces of cold air seeped in from the surrounding stream and accumulated in his limbs. It didn't spread to his chest and abdomen.
According to the nameless heavenly book, this cold air was the Qi of Water Spirit.
Shen Luo continued to circulate the nameless spell. He circulated it over and over again. Soon, he had circulated it for thirty-six cycles.
Every time he circulated the spell, the Qi of Yang in his dantian became hotter. After thirty-six cycles, his dantian seemed to be burning with a raging fire.
Under the Qi of Water Spirit, his limbs became incomparably cold. It was as if they were frozen in ice, and he almost lost all feeling in his limbs.
The cold and heat caused Shen Luo to feel as if his entire body was in the midst of ice and fire. It was extremely painful. However, he still clenched his teeth and endured it with great willpower.
In order to enter the Qi Refining Stage and become a true cultivator from an ordinary person, the most important thing was to be able to communicate with the technique. In other words, only by communicating with the technique could one be considered to have truly entered the path of immortality.
According to what Bai Xiaotian had said, every cultivation technique had its own way to pass through the Dharma.
The method recorded in the nameless technique was to mobilize the Qi of Yang and draw the Qi of Water Spirit into the body at the same time. After circulating the technique for thirty-six cycles, one's body would be in a state of water and fire.
Under such a state, if one could succeed in combining the two Qis through continuous trial and understanding, one could achieve a subtle cycle of Yin and Yang. Only then would one's physical body be integrated into the Heaven and Earth. At the same time, one's mind could be highly concentrated and use this opportunity to communicate with the technique.
The so-called understanding was originally somewhat illusory. It was like a flower in a mirror or the moon in the water. It could be seen but not touched. Even so, everyone's feelings were different. However, if one continued to try, the possibility of success would increase. However, some people were limited by their natural endowments or comprehension. Even if they trained hard, they would not be able to touch the key point in their lives.
Shen Luo recited the method recorded in the nameless technique again in his heart. At the same time, he mobilized the Qi of Yang in his dantian and the Qi of Water Spirit in his limbs.
The two Qis, one hot and one cold, intertwined and collided in his body, causing his face to turn green and red.
This intertwining of hot and cold only lasted for a short while. The cold Qi of Water Spirit was obviously much weaker than the Qi of Yang. Under this situation, it began to dissipate quickly.
Shen Luo sighed in his heart. He knew that he had failed.
It seemed that this nameless technique was just like the Minor Yang Art. It was not easy to cultivate, or it could be said that his natural endowments were not very good.
However, it was his first time trying it out, and he only wanted to experience the cultivation of the nameless technique. He originally didn't hold much hope, so at this moment, he couldn't be said to be disappointed.
However, at this moment, a strange change occurred.
Shen Luo felt a slight chill on his right shoulder. A huge wave of cold Qi gushed out and entered his body.
His body stiffened. Once again, a thin layer of white ice appeared on the surface of his body. In the blink of an eye, it covered his entire body.
Just like before, this wave of cold Qi had no effect on the surroundings. The stream flowed as usual and the temperature of the water did not drop.
As soon as the cold Qi entered Shen Luo's body, it immediately rushed towards the Qi of Yang in his dantian. The two collided fiercely.
Boom!
A muffled sound came from his body. It was as if all his organs had been shaken.
Shen Luo's meridians were in pain. He could not even move, let alone control the two conflicting forces. He could only let them run rampant in his body.
However, the two powerful Qis did not clash for too long. Soon, they intertwined. From attacking each other, they became complementary.
At this moment, Shen Luo felt as if he had opened a mysterious door. An indescribable sense of joy surged in his body. His mind could not help but be immersed in it.
At this moment, he could feel the Qi of Water Spirit entering his body from his limbs. The Qi of Yang in his dantian was also mixing with it. This process was natural and did not require any interference from him.
It was as if this was how it should be.
