518 Organizing the Laws of the Great Dao (2)
The Yin-Yang Bagua diagram, also known as Taiji Bagua diagram, was created by the Earth Emperor Fuxi.
It could be said that all the formations came from it.
Mastering the Taiji Bagua diagram was akin to mastering a catalog, encompassing all formations in the world. However, Lin Feng had other thoughts.
Originally, he wanted the Longevity World self-contained like the Divine Realm and to form a world of its own, but his previous ideas seemed too crude. Now, he was just continuously adding Great Dao laws to the Longevity World. In the end, even if the Longevity World became a truly independent world, it would still be a chaotic and primitive world.
But now, this formation had given him inspiration. Perhaps he could extract the laws of the Great Dao from it and bring more order to the Longevity World?
Order and disorder might seem like a mere difference in wording, but the distinction was significant.
Disorder represented chaos, while order represented efficiency.
In a disordered world, invoking the power of the Great Dao laws, even with prohibitions, wouldn’t achieve much. However, in an ordered world, one could freely invoke the laws of the Great Dao without restrictions, making a world of difference compared to using rules in a state of disorder.
“Using the Great Dao laws in a disorderly world requires more effort, but in an ordered world, not only can I easily add laws, but also use them effortlessly with a thought,” Lin Feng thought.
He pondered further and realized that this made things much more convenient.
Disordered laws were difficult to manipulate; even with restrictions, they wouldn’t respond much.
But orderly laws of the Great Dao, even without restrictions, could be easily harnessed and surpassed the utility of using restrictions in a state of disorder.
“Moreover, if I were to use restrictions to manipulate the ordered laws, I could potentially… harness the power of the entire world’s Great Dao laws!”
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng felt a surge of excitement.
Manipulating the power of an entire world—how awe-inspiring that would be!
Although the ruler of a world held control over it, manipulating the collective power of a whole world was incredibly complicated, and who would grant you that time in battle?
Hence, those divine-level and god-level experts specialized in a single path, as it made manipulating power much less complicated.
Furthermore, Lin Feng had a realization.
The Divine Realm, despite appearing ordered, was actually chaotic. Zhong Ya forcefully imposed order with her immense strength, making it seem orderly.
For instance, data representation was an expression of this.
Zhong Ya utilized data to maintain an appearance of order in the Divine Realm, without truly organizing its laws.
Therefore, if the other party was really the master of the Divine Realm, it was very unlikely for him to mobilize the power of the entire Divine Realm.
However, if his Longevity World was organized, even if it was only the size of a level ninth-level Divine Realm world, could it rival Zhong Ya’s realm?
Lin Feng continued reading, simultaneously delving into the space and time laws of the Longevity World.
By the time he finished reading the entire book, the space and time Great Dao laws in the Longevity World had been comprehensively organized.
At this point, the Longevity World had become notably more stable, far removed from its previous chaotic and nebulous state. This was akin to the difference between an obese person weighing 300 pounds and a solidly built 300-pound athlete!
“Emperor Fuxi explained the rules of the Great Dao with unparalleled clarity, even among god-level deities!” Lin Feng exclaimed.
He then chuckled to himself, realizing that he was the ancient person, though he had no one to surpass.
Regardless, Lin Feng didn’t believe he could achieve such feats. Creating hexagrams similar to runes required tremendous imagination.
After all, it wasn’t as simple as sketching a few lines; it required a connection with vital energy.
Inborn runes, Fuxi’s hexagrams made Lin Feng’s heart skip a beat.
“It’s also recorded in the book that the Earth Emperor, Fuxi, created two divine weapons, the Yellow River Chart and the Inscription of the River Luo, which allowed him to deduce the past, present, and future. After combining them into the Primordial Taiji Diagram, he could even traverse through time and space. Is this fact or fiction?” Lin Feng pondered, stroking his chin.
If the records were true, it was truly terrifying.
This meant that time might not have been reversed by Zhong Ya alone. That Fuxi might have also traveled through the River of Time!
The Azure Thearch Longevity Physique, the Azure Thearch, and the Earth Emperor—was his own time travel also part of their scheme?
Perhaps he needed to meet them to find out.
Shaking his head, Lin Feng pushed those thoughts aside and continued reading other books on formations.
However, after reading ‘Yi,’ he found the rest of the formation books unremarkable.
Of course, these books, if brought to the myriad worlds, would bring about revolutionary changes with each one.
But compared to ‘Yi,’ as Lin Feng had thought before, while the former provided an overarching framework, the latter was merely a point, not delving as deep, remaining superficial.
Nevertheless, Lin Feng did stumble upon some intriguing records. One book mentioned that Shennong, the Divine Farmer, had been inspired by Fuxi’s innate 64 hexagrams to write ‘Continuous Mountain Yi.’ This book further explored the boundless applications of formations and gave birth to the Divine Farmer Cauldron, capable of suppressing all formations and prohibitions in the world!
The capital of the Great Yan Dynasty ruled by Emperor Yan was arranged according to ‘Continuous Mountain Yi,’ comprising 64 cities. Once the formation was activated, a city could rival even a god.
Legends also claimed that within the city formation, the Continuous Mountain Formation of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Divine Farmer Cauldron was used as a suppression device. This secured the prosperity of the Great Yan Dynasty for generations, leading to rumors that the Flame Emperor was the Divine Farmer.
However, Lin Feng had yet to find the book ‘Continuous Mountain Yi.’ According to the records he had read, to grasp the profoundness of ‘Continuous Mountain Yi,’ one needed to journey to the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty.
