Shen Luo held his forehead with one hand and slowly looked at the stone wall in front of him.
He saw that the entire mountain wall opposite him was shrouded in a hazy smoke and dust. The "All Living Things" mural that he saw earlier had collapsed.
After the smoke and dust gradually settled, a brand new mural appeared on the stone wall. What was carved was the image of an armored ape that was ten feet tall.
It was sitting cross-legged with its hands together in front of its body. Outside of the armor on its body, there was a kasaya draped over its body. On its legs, there was a long carved staff that looked very similar to the Sea Suppressing Iron Staff.
Shen Luo looked at this scene. How could he not recognize the person carved on the mural in front of him? It was naturally Heaven's equal … No, the Victorious Fighting Buddha, Sun Wukong.
The Victorious Fighting Buddha on the mural lowered his eyebrows and looked calm. His appearance was very different from the rumored unruly Great Sage Equal to Heaven. It looked like a Buddha Bodhisattva.
Shen Luo stood up and put his hands together in front of his body. He bowed to the stone statue from afar.
At this moment, his ears seemed to explode with a sudden clap of thunder. There was a loud "boom"!
Then, a solemn voice echoed in his sea of consciousness, "The Dao of All Living Things, the change of the extremity, the law of All Living Things, the evolution of the Great Path, the same name, the mystery, the mystery within the mystery, the door to all the wonders …"
The moment this voice sounded, Shen Luo's heart seemed to ring like a bell. It also seemed like a shackle had been unlocked. In the dark, there was a mysterious feeling of enlightenment.
In an instant, the meridians all over his body lit up one after another, and his eyes reflected a strange light. All the things that he had visualized just now appeared in front of his eyes like a lantern, and began to flash scene by scene.
At the same time, the Huangting Scripture in his body began to circulate again.
This time, an unprecedented feeling lingered in Shen Luo's heart. He finally understood, "The words that are ringing in his ears right now are not from him, but the missing general principles of the Yellow Court Scripture."
Shen Luo had practiced the Yellow Court Scripture in the past. Although he had relied on his shocking talent to progress smoothly, it was the first time he had been enlightened like today.
With the guidance of this outline, Shen Luo immediately had a different kind of understanding towards the Yellow Court Scripture.
With a thought, he began to circulate the Yellow Court Scripture on his own with a brand new comprehension. The Spiritual Qi in the surroundings immediately gathered towards him endlessly, surging into his body.
The moment the spiritual energy entered his body, Shen Luo was slightly surprised. He suddenly realized that he could no longer feel the bottleneck of the Taiyi realm.
However, what surprised him even more was that his cultivation level hadn't changed. He was still in the late stage of the True Immortal Realm, and he hadn't broken through.
"Could it be …"
After thinking for a moment, Shen Luo finally understood that it wasn't that his bottleneck had disappeared. Instead, when he obtained the general principles of the Yellow Court Scripture, the bottleneck had been raised imperceptibly.
This also meant that the threshold for him to step into the Taiyi realm had become higher.
Shen Luo still didn't know whether this was good or bad. At this moment, he didn't have the time to care too much about this. After being slightly distracted, he withdrew all his thoughts and began to cultivate wholeheartedly.
As he chanted the seventy-two lines of the incantation, he felt the pores all over his body open up. They began to condense the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into extremely thin threads that were absorbed into his body.
At this moment, the power of his Divine Sense skyrocketed rapidly. Two dazzling golden lights burst forth from his eyes. Clusters of illusory images of flowers and beasts appeared one after another and surrounded his body.
His eyes flickered as he stared at the illusory images of all things. The threads formed by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth that extended from his pores began to twitch slowly. They led the illusory image of a swift flying in the air and gradually merged into his body.
In the next moment, the light around Shen Luo's body converged. The bones in his body crackled and his body began to shrink rapidly. In a flash of light, he turned into a small and exquisite black swift.
Then, the swift spread its wings. There was a thin thread on its body that led the illusory image of a sunflower closer. The moment it merged into his body, the swift slowly landed on the ground and turned into a golden sunflower.
Then, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth continued to lead the illusory images of all things around into his body. Shen Luo's body also changed into various birds, beasts, and exotic flowers in bursts of light.
The evolution of the Great Dao was about flexibility. The Dao was impermanent and there were no fixed laws. If nine by nine could return to one, then eight by nine would have endless changes.
It was only at this moment that Shen Luo finally understood. The Fangcun Mountain's inherited cultivation method, the Yellow Court Scripture, was not something else. It was the Eight Nine Mysteries that had been concealed. It was also the Seventy-two Transformations cultivation method that Patriarch Bodhi did not teach unless he was a direct disciple.
As bursts of light flashed on Shen Luo's body, his body changed time and time again. The illusory images of all things around him disappeared one by one.
At the same time, Shen Luo also felt that the aura on his body was gradually strengthening with each change. The bottleneck that had become somewhat blurry previously became clear once again.
Time passed by slowly. In the blink of an eye, three days and nights had passed.
Outside the tree hole, the black-cloaked man stood motionless outside the area. His brows were tightly furrowed and his expression was gloomy.
Although Bai Ling was no longer bound, she was squatting beside a large rock. At this moment, she did not even dare to breathe loudly, let alone have the slightest thought of escaping.
She was very clear that the person in front of her was much, much more powerful than her. He could easily crush her with a single finger.
Seeing that Shen Luo had not been able to come out after so long, Bai Ling could not help but feel a little worried.
Firstly, she was worried that something had happened to Shen Luo in the cave. Secondly, she was worried that he would not come out for a long time, angering this fiendish guy in front of her. When the time came, she would definitely be the one who would be taken out on.
"Could it be that I overestimated that guy? Could he have already died in there?" The black-cloaked man lowered his head and muttered to himself.
After saying that, he turned back to look at Bai Ling, hesitating whether to continue waiting.
Bai Ling immediately shivered when he looked at her. Cold sweat flowed down her forehead.
The black-cloaked man pondered for a moment, then slowly walked towards Bai Ling. Seeing this, Bai Ling's body trembled. She did not know if it was because she was scared out of her wits or because she knew that she could not escape. Her body seemed to be stuck to the huge rock, and she could not move even an inch.
The man stopped in front of Bai Ling. He looked Bai Ling up and down. Suddenly, he raised a palm and was about to hit Bai Ling.
Bai Ling's face was pale. She subconsciously raised her hands in front of her to block. She opened her mouth to shout, but not a word came out.
