Clan Cultivation: Starting with Building an Island Immortal City

92: The Difficulty of Giving Dharma, Visualization of the Mind PlatformMeanwhile, Li Yinglong, feeling the System notifications, fell into contemplation.

Over there, the twin siblings had already awakened from the effects of receiving the Enlightenment.

Feeling the changes within their bodies, their surprise and joy were evident.

Song Shuwen, being more impetuous, felt the surging, scorching new power within him, as if it could incinerate everything, and excitedly wanted to describe it:

”Clan Chief, I feel...”

”Silence.”

Li Yinglong suddenly reacted and immediately raised his hand to stop him.

His deep gaze swept over all the curious eyes present, then he transmitted his voice secretly, only for the two to hear:

”What you two have gained is a great Opportunity, and it concerns the future secrets of the Family. There is no need to speak of its specifics, and even your closest relatives must not be told a single bit. In your future Cultivation, you should comprehend it yourselves and verify it with each other. This is not a lack of trust, but rather for your protection, and also to be used as a surprise weapon in the future. Can you both remember this?”

After speaking, he put on a smile and said to the other curious Disciples:

”Shuyao and Shuwen’s situation is special, and I am not very clear about it either. Let’s discuss it after I have researched it.”

With that, he gently glossed over the topic, interrupting everyone’s curiosity.

Song Shuyao instantly understood, pulled her still somewhat confused younger brother, and solemnly replied:

”Clan Chief, rest assured, Shuyao (Shuwen) understands. We will comprehend it ourselves and cultivate diligently!”

Li Yinglong nodded in satisfaction.

The System’s prompts could not be false; he understood that the two’s Dao Body potential was boundless and complementary. Once they matured, their power would be far more than a simple one plus one.

Such a trump card, before they had sufficient self-preservation abilities, naturally, the later it was exposed, the better.

Although everyone felt a little regretful, since the Clan Chief had spoken, no one dared to ask further.

To shift the atmosphere, Li Yinglong immediately made a new move.

He took out several Jade Slips of varying age from his Storage Pouch.

”Since you all have obtained Spiritual Bodies, like good timber prepared, to build a grand mansion still requires axes, chisels, and rules. The physical body is the foundation, Cultivation Technique is the application; only when both complement each other can one progress steadily, reach far, and ascend to the peak!”

”Changyun,”

With that, he first took out a Jade Slip glowing with a reddish luster:

”This is the ’Burning Mountain Art’, obtained from a rogue cultivator in the Southern Wilderness. It is a Fire Element Cultivation Technique, fierce and powerful, perfectly suited for your newly acquired ’Crimson Flame Battle Body’. Cultivate it well.”

Li Changyun was overjoyed and took it with both hands:

”Thank you, Clan Chief, for bestowing the technique!”

”Tieniu,”

Li Yinglong then took out an earthy yellow Jade Slip:

”This is the ’Wutu Immovable Rock Scripture’, also a spoils of war from that day. It specializes in defense and the application of earth power, perfectly matching your ’Immovable Rock Body’.”

Stone Iron Ox gave a simple smile and respectfully accepted it:

”Thank you, Clan Chief!”

”Mingyuan,”

Li Yinglong handed a silver-gray Jade Slip with subtle light flowing on its surface to Zhao Mingyuan:

”This ’Elementary Formation Dao · Evolution Chapter’ was purchased by me at Thousand Sails Ferry. Although it is only foundational, it perfectly matches the characteristics of your [Myriad Manifestation Latitude and Longitude Spiritual Body]. Study it well; in the future, the Family’s Formation and Talisman Dao may require you to oversee it.”

Zhao Mingyuan’s eyes burst with brilliant light, as if he had found a treasure, and he bowed deeply:

”Mingyuan will not fail the Clan Chief’s trust!”

These three items were all obtained during the trip to the Southern Wilderness.

Dragon Two powerfully killed those rogue cultivators and acquired their Storage Pouches. The Cultivation Techniques and Talismans within were useless to their Angry Dragon Clan, so he gave them to Li Yinglong; as for the Spirit Stones and Medicinal Pills, Li Yinglong took nothing, giving them all to the Angry Dragon Clan. Everyone took what they needed.

Finally, he took out three copied Jade Slips of the ”Five Elements Spirit Control Art” and distributed them to the three individuals:

”This Art is the foundation of Cultivation. It can help you better control your spiritual power, refining it to a meticulous degree. Cultivating it alongside your main Cultivation Technique will yield twice the results with half the effort.”

The three bowed in thanks again.

After the bestowal was complete, Li Yinglong looked at Song Shuyao and Song Shuwen, with a hint of apology:

”Your situation is special, and I currently do not have a perfectly suitable method. Please allow me some time to consider it; I will choose appropriate Cultivation Techniques for you two in a few days.”

The siblings quickly said:

”Clan Chief, you’ve gone to great lengths. We are not in a hurry.”

Li Yinglong nodded, his gaze sweeping across the entire gathering. All the Disciples who had received gifts bowed in unison, their voices excited and devout:

”Thank you, Clan Chief, for your generous gifts! We will cultivate diligently without cease and bring glory to our Family!”

The other new Disciples, witnessing this scene, were filled with envy and fervent fighting spirit. They secretly resolved to cultivate assiduously, hoping that in the future, they too could gain the Clan Chief’s favor and obtain such an Opportunity.

The bonfire night talk concluded in this harmonious atmosphere... The moonlight, like a silken ribbon, poured onto the Celestial Island’s Heavenly Lake, dyeing the clear water with shattered silver.

All was silent, save for the faint rustle of the night wind brushing against the spiritual plants and the distant, ceaseless roar of the vast sea.

The clamor and joy of the bonfire night talk had long faded.

Li Yinglong sat alone on a bluestone by the lake, his dark robes gently swaying in the night wind. His figure, set against the backdrop of the vast starry sky and the tranquil lake, appeared particularly solitary and profound.

His eyes were slightly closed, seemingly in meditation, yet his mind was like boiling water, unable to truly settle.

In his mind, the vision of the sun and moon shining together, the Yin and Yang interweaving, when the siblings Song Shuyao and Song Shuwen received the [Grand Yin Grand Yang Twin Dao Body], repeatedly appeared.

The System’s cold notification sound still echoed in his ears:

”Twin parallel synchronization,” ”ultimate bond weakness”...

”A difficult problem...” Li Yinglong sighed inwardly.

His Divine Sense sank into his Storage Pouch, where Jade Slips stood in rows, containing many Cultivation Techniques.

The ”Burning Mountain Art,” the ”Wutu Immovable Rock Scripture,” and even the ”Five Elements Spirit Control Art” were all relatively complete and balanced Cultivation Techniques, compiled by predecessors, with clear principles and definite paths.

If given to ordinary Spiritual Root Disciples, they would naturally be a smooth beginning.

But these twins were ”Dao Bodies,” they were ”symbiotic,” they were walking ”proto-Law of Yin and Yang”!

Forcibly giving them any existing Cultivation Technique would be like confining a fledgling eagle soaring in the Nine Heavens to a cage, not only wasting their supreme talent but alsochokekilling their infinite possibilities.

It was like in his previous life’s business world, seeing an uncarved jade with infinite potential, how could one use a production line mold to fit it?

That would be the greatest blasphemy to a treasure!

”The Law cannot be transmitted? Or... the Law, needs no external transmission?”

A vague thought, like an undercurrent at the bottom of a lake, quietly surged.

He recalled that in his previous life, as a marketing director, when facing the most promising startup teams, he never gave rigid templates. Instead, he provided core concepts, market trends, and data support, guiding them to collide and create the business model best suited to their characteristics.

Giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish; teaching a man how to fish is not as good as igniting the wisdom to create his own fishing net.

”Their ’fish,’ their ’Dao,’ should not be given by me, but truly ’created’ by themselves!”

”What I need to do is not to give them a ready-made path, but rather... to point them in the right direction and light the lamp that illuminates the way forward!”

With this thought, Li Yinglong’s spiritual platform suddenly became clear, and his thoughts flowed smoothly!

He no longer clung to finding a ”Cultivation Technique,” but instead began to retrace his own Cultivation gains, combining the vast knowledge instilled by the System with the explanations of the Origin of the world, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, motion and stillness, clarity and turbidity in the ”Five Elements Spirit Control Art.”

Gradually, he entered a mysterious state of ”visualization.”

It wasn’t visualizing a specific Divine Ability, but rather visualizing the ”Dao” itself as he understood it, visualizing the ”Laws” that subtly constrain and yet give birth to all things.

In his Sea of Consciousness, all the knowledge about ”Yin and Yang” and ”Daoist Canon” from his previous life surged forth and fused.

In his consciousness, there were no longer specific images; instead, there was a primal Chaos.

Then, Chaos first opened, the clear Yang ascended to become Heaven, and the turbid Yin descended to become Earth;

Heaven had the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and Earth had mountains and marshes communicating Qi;

Motion and stillness were appropriate, hardness and softness complemented each other... Innumerable opposing yet unified ”concepts,” in the most fundamental form of ”Dao patterns,” intertwined, collided, and evolved.

He captured the rhythm of the ”Grand Yin” — its stillness, descent, nourishment, and transformation;

He also touched the Law of the ”Grand Yang” — its intensity, ascent, dispelling evil, and constancy.

These two rhythms were not diametrically opposed, but rather like the two poles of a magnet, attracting each other, depending on each other, achieving a higher level of harmony in their opposition.

”That’s it! This is it!”

Li Yinglong suddenly opened his eyes, a brilliant light bursting forth from them, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, instantly illuminating the lakeside!

This visualization had actually taken an entire night!

Time had already reached the juncture of Yin and Yang interweaving, the alternation of day and night.

He stood up, all the burdens in his chest gone, and a sudden sense of enlightenment and relief welled up within him.

”Why seek out chapters and pick sentences, growing old poring over scriptures? Heaven and Earth are the best scriptures, and each other are the best bright mirrors!”

An extremely bold, even heretical, plan for transmitting the Law completely formed in his mind!

He would not give any concrete Cultivation Technique incantations or Qi Circulation routes.

What he wanted to do was to use his own Divine Thought as a guide, and his comprehension of the Origin of the Great Dao as ink, to directly ”brand” that fundamental Dao rhyme concerning ”Yin and Yang,” ”motion and stillness,” ”generation and restraint,” and ”resonance” onto the very Origin of their Dao Bodies!

This was like directly injecting the most fundamental ”programming logic” and ”core algorithms” into two supercomputers with top-tier processing cores but lacking an operating System, guiding them to self-derive the ”artificial intelligence algorithms” most suitable for their own hardware!

This method was unprecedented!

This method was fraught with both danger and Opportunity!

However, only this method was worthy of the [Grand Yin Grand Yang Twin Dao Body], rarely seen throughout the ages!

Only then could they truly forge a path to Immortality that belonged to them, one unprecedented by any before them!

Li Yinglong stood with his hands behind his back, filled with boundless curiosity!

”While the world follows the paths of predecessors, I insist on carving my own path, establishing new norms!”

”Shuyao, Shuwen, today, I shall bestow upon you a ’Lawless Law’ fortune! What kind of world-shaking Divine Ability you can comprehend from it will depend on your own karmic connections and Comprehension Ability!”

His mind was made up. He sent a telepathic message, ordering the two to quickly come to the Heavenly Lake to see him.

Now, he would begin this unique ”Dao-seeking” journey for these twins.

The night wind blew, and the lake surface rippled with shimmering light, as if subtly pulsating for the impending birth of this Cultivation path.

Beneath the starry sky, a unique Dao path, vastly different from the myriad methods in the world, had quietly revealed its first glimmer of dawn.
