Chapter 11 The Time Has Come, Living Beidou
Feeling this, Qin Tian suddenly realized that, unknowingly, his attainments in the art of formations were not inferior to those of the people who set up the formations, and they were at the same level.
Only then did Qin Tian understand what the scriptures of a powerful emperor meant.
A statue stands at the top of the human way, looking up at the existence of the immortal way. Although his explanation of the great way is very old, some of his views have become common sense.
People today are not necessarily inferior to people in ancient times.
Cultivation also progresses step by step, and the times also progress bit by bit. Later generations stand on the shoulders of giants, surpass their predecessors, and draw newer conclusions. Some truths that only saints and emperors knew in the past are now clearly understood by ordinary practitioners thousands of years later.
But there are some aspects that ordinary people can never reach the level of the great emperors, and that is their understanding of Taoism, which will never become outdated no matter how much time has passed.
They are geniuses, the strongest people standing at the pinnacle of humanity.
No matter how mundane one is, it is difficult to get a glimpse of that kind of existential perspective and thought, just like the peasants, who imagine the emperor's life to be like using a golden hoe to hoe the fields and eating flatbread for three meals a day.
The scriptures contain wisdom and insights that surpass those of ordinary people. Even if one can only comprehend a tiny bit of it, it is enough to surpass the vast majority of living beings in the world.
Every time I read it, I will gain new insights and new growth.
Although it is only tens of thousands of words, it explains the root of the formation vividly.
It allows people to understand the essence of the formation, and grasping "one" lays the most solid foundation for Qin Tian to master "two" and "three".
Such a profound level of Taoism made people unable to help but admire and respect him. This emotion only came to an abrupt end after Qin Tian met Duan De.
"Although Cao Yusheng is not doing anything useful, his cultivation is still admirable." Qin Tian thought.
During this period, Qin Tian took the time to take two fist-sized pieces of alien sources and exchange them for two saint-level Divine Bridge scriptures and Other Shore scriptures in case of emergency.
This behavior, as Qin Tian expected, attracted a lot of people's attention.
Every time he went down to the source mine, there would be someone following Qin Tian and mining the source ore near him in the hope of mining out the exotic source and getting the chance to go to the Sutra Pavilion.
.........
Time flies.
Three months have passed since Qin Tian received the formation inheritance from Cao Yusheng. With the Wudao Tea Tree Paper by his side, Qin Tian is always in a clear mind and his learning speed has increased significantly.
On this day, Qin Tian finished a night of formation practice and was about to go to work with his hoe on his shoulder, but he found that a crowd had gathered not far away and was extremely noisy.
Qin Tian was a little curious, so he walked forward to check it out. It turned out that a notice was posted at Yaoguang Holy Land.
Standing behind the crowd, he added divine power to his eyes and read out the contents word by word:
"Due to abnormal changes in the earth veins, Mine A will be closed in three months, so the miners will be transferred to Mine D."
Qin Tian was a little surprised: "Will this place be closed in two days?"
"We will also move to other source mines." The old man who had dissuaded Qin Tian at the beginning was a little confused.
He came to the No. A mining area at the age of sixteen and is now nearly eighty years old. It can be said that most of his life has been closely related to the mining area.
He has worked here all his life, and suddenly, he was asked to leave the No. 1 Source Mine and go somewhere else. For a moment, he was actually a little afraid of the future.
Qin Tian was extremely excited, and he uttered through clenched teeth: "The time has finally come!"
There was a silver light flashing in that pair of silver pupils. When the matter of sealing the source meridian was decided, the future also changed. One timeline after another was cut, leaving only the future related to sealing the meridian.
"Not only am I leaving, I'm also going to give them a big surprise!" Qin Tian's eyes were burning with fire. From a rational point of view, leaving quietly was the best solution. With his formation skills, he was able to cross the formation barrier of the Yaoguang Mine without being discovered by anyone.
But Qin Tian didn't think so in his heart. He was unwilling to leave like this.
The rage he had accumulated was about to drive him crazy.
Three years of life as a slave did not make him servile or dampen his spirit. Instead, it made his anger grow even stronger, almost forming an obsession.
No, this is obsession. If he doesn't turn this place upside down, he will not be at peace and his thoughts will not be clear, which will hinder his future path of cultivation.
"Seal the meridians, use the formation to seal the meridians, perhaps I can make use of it." Qin Tian murmured, with undying hatred and anger in his eyes.
The so-called sealing of the veins, just as the name suggests, seals the source veins and leaves them for mining again in the future.
It was only after he came to Zhatian that Qin Tian realized that source was actually a renewable resource, and in essence it was just the condensation of the earth's essence.
The Big Dipper transformed from the chaotic body is a "living" planet, constantly absorbing and exhaling the essence of the universe, and the "source" is the life essence of the Big Dipper, and it is the blood of the Big Dipper.
The monks are the ones who usurped the blood of Beidou and evolved.
From this perspective, it is absolutely true that Heaven created all things to nourish man and man has nothing to repay Heaven.
The earth's veins have their ups and downs, and they rotate every ten thousand years.
Originium is created from earth veins and is actually a renewable resource, but it takes more than ten thousand years to regenerate once.
Sealing the veins is a method of accelerating the accumulation of earth vein energy and generating source.
By using formations to block the flow of earth energy, a portion of the earth's essence is retained, allowing it to accumulate and precipitate, eventually forming the so-called "source"
The formation in the source vein was set up by a saint, and only a saint who is in a small world can imprison the vein of heaven and earth.
Otherwise, no matter how big the Big Dipper is, if a group of holy places dig day and night for millions of years, it will be empty.
Qin Tian didn't know about other mining areas, but in the source mining area of the Yaoguang Holy Land, the source veins were sealed for a thousand years. Ten veins formed a group and one vein was mined for a thousand years, so ten veins were exactly a cycle of ten thousand years.
Ten thousand years passed, and the essence of the earth veins was accumulated and opened again. The "source" that had been exhausted was regenerated.
In fact, considering the size of Beidou, the source vein should have taken more than ten thousand years to recover.
But unfortunately, the holy places are not the only ones doing this. On the contrary, they only occupy a very small part.
The entire Big Dipper is a large formation, like a living creature, breathing in and out energy all the time.
Energy is drawn from the void to supply the creatures of Beidou. The energy flows between the dragon veins and is distributed to the five regions and eight wastelands.
A part of it overflows from the earth's veins and flows between heaven and earth to provide support for people's practice.
Another part is stored in the dragon veins, wandering in the earth veins, and producing various treasures.
However, the energy deposited in these dragon veins, which provides energy for people to practice cultivation, accounts for a very low proportion.
It's just some dregs and residues of Beidou's autonomous breathing of cosmic energy.
