Chapter Sixty Seven Opening

"Book of Changes... Book of Changes..."

In the dark corner of the cellar, Ying Yi flipped through the stacks of books, looking for the Book of Changes, and let out a long laugh.

The blue-covered and black-lettered book has yellowing pages when opened, and there are many annotations between the lines, which should be some of Zheng Yunzhi's insights when he was studying. The ancient sages made modest remarks, but often there is no profound truth in one sentence. When you read the classics at different times and at different stages of life, your perceptions will definitely be different. For example, no one in ten lifetimes of reading a classic like the Book of Changes would be able to say that they would be able to read it thoroughly.

When people read, they start with the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, Thousand Character Classic, and then gradually go to the Middle School, etc., and the Book of Changes is the most difficult. If you don’t read the Book of Changes and don’t understand the Book of Changes, you can’t be considered a truly knowledgeable person.

Zheng Yunzhi himself had an extraordinary family background, was a Jinshi in the imperial examination, and had served as an imperial scholar, so he must read the Book of Changes. This book has been turned over by him countless times. You can tell by looking at the wear and annotations on it.

"The first of all sutras..."

The darkness could not block Ying Yi's vision. He put the Yi Jing aside and put the other books in their original place, then picked up the Yi Jing and stood up.

Ying Yi took a few steps and was about to leave the cellar, but after thinking about it, he stopped again.

After getting the Yi Jing, the next natural step is to start the Yuan Qi plan. When starting the plan, it is natural to choose a safe place where no one will disturb you. This cellar is just right. So the door panel at the cellar exit was pulled back, and there was no longer any light in the cellar.

Ying Yi sat down, darkness enveloped him, and it was extremely quiet.

Holding up the Book of Changes, Ying Yi silently recited the plan.

The I Ching in his hand disappeared instantly.

Then in the corner of his eyes, the word Yuan Qi twisted as if struggling. After a moment, the light shone brightly.

Only Ying Yi could see this light, and the cellar was still dark.

Ying Yi felt this light shining on every corner of his body, without any blind spots, and felt extremely warm, as if he was soaking in warm water. At this moment, Ying Yi's body and spirit became extremely sensitive, and he suddenly felt that there was something mysterious around his body, like water, endless and boundless.

This is like the boundless sea or starry sky, and he is just a speck of dust in this sea or starry sky.

Being in this sea and starry sky, Ying Yi felt like he was being restrained and suppressed. This sea and starry sky only occasionally have ripples, almost like a pool of stagnant water, and it is difficult to show waves.

Some subtle information came to Ying Yi's mind.

"Yuan Qi..."

This is Yuan Qi, the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth.

In the universe, Yuan Qi is everywhere and omnipresent. It is an existence that is completely different from matter, but it also exists in, between, and on top of any material and non-material things. No matter how silent the place is, there is still the energy of heaven and earth.

But in different environments, the activity of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is different. The more active the energy of heaven and earth is, the more vitality it stimulates. The calmer it is, the shallower the life.

When the activity of Yuan Qi is above a certain level, life will be born in this place. Below this level, life is out of the question.

Yuan Qi, the Qi of heaven and earth, the Qi of the universe.

This is the concept of Yuan Qi.

"The fact that I am alive means that the activity of Yuan Qi in the environment I am in is above the horizontal line." Ying Yi's thoughts fluctuated: "In my opinion, this environment may be very large, including the entire earth. There are even some surrounding areas, but in the scope of the universe, they may be very small."

Yuan Qi is the Qi of heaven, earth and the universe, and is a complete and huge cycle in the universe. In this cycle, there are stormy waves and calm waves.

The launch of Yuan Qi's plan opened a door for Ying Yi, allowing him to see a brand new world, a world that is directly close to the essence of the universe.

"In other words, the opening of the Yuan Qi Project has given me a key to using Yuan Qi."

"Yuan Qi is everywhere and endless. If you can use Yuan Qi satisfactorily, then..."

He took a deep breath.

Forty-nine characters that looked like seal script were engraved in Ying Yi's mind, like branding with a soldering iron, so clear and firm. These characters are the keys to unlocking the use of Yuan Qi. But only one character shines, the others are dim.

"No wonder we need a Book of Changes..." Ying Yi felt this character, kind and heavy, as if there were endless mysteries hidden in it. It is this character that is activated by the I Ching.

His thoughts swirled: "The Book of Changes leads the civilization of all Xia, but it only opens one character, and there are forty-eight more..."

Ying Yi took a gentle breath.

Fortunately, the Yuan Qi Plan was activated, and both the Yuan Talisman and Yuan Qi under it began to glow slightly. As for a Book of Changes that only opens one character, what to do with the remaining forty-eight characters is not something Ying Yi can consider now. Although from here, he became more and more aware of the bottomless depth of the huge dragon-like snake entrenched character in his mind.

He turned his attention first to the element options.

"Turn on."

Ying Yi read silently.

The word "Yuan Qi" flashed slightly and became completely bright. Then Ying Yi couldn't wait to focus on the military element options. But before Ying Yi could be happy, something bad happened.

"You actually need to activate the element prefix first."

His mind turned: "It seems that the two options of Yuan Qi and Yuan Fu are not separate, but closely related."

He quickly opened the element option, then returned his attention to the military element under the element option, and then hit a wall again.

"It requires basic five-element elements and energy elements."

A vein on Ying Yi's forehead twitched, and he took a deep breath: "Sure enough, nothing can reach the sky in one step."

"You must first turn on all the elemental symbol options before the elemental weapon option can open the door."

Then he turned his attention to the basic Gold Yuan Talisman option under the Yuan Qi option.

A bit of information came to mind: "It requires a true spiritual number of 100."

Ying Yi paused for a moment, he really needed a real spiritual number! He couldn't help but look at the other four basic elemental symbol options, and felt a chill in his heart.

It takes 100 true spiritual numbers to open one item, and it can be imagined that all five items are opened. And he only has 326 now.

"Let's go..." After sighing, Ying Yi had a thought, and the basic gold elemental talisman options flickered slightly, and the true spiritual number dropped sharply by 100.

Then, like a hot spring, a lot of profound information seemed to come from somewhere, and within a few breaths, it was stored in Ying Yi's mind. This information is highly organized and systematic, just like a book with finely edited chapters. As long as Ying Yi has a thought in his mind, he can open it and read it.

This book contains all the knowledge about the basic Jin Yuan Talisman.

The look on Ying Yi's face seemed to be frozen at this time, and his mind was attracted by all this knowledge. The knowledge in Ying Yi's mind consists of one thousand two hundred and ninety-six characters like seal script.
