Chapter 633 Foundation circle
On reaching the next location Yang Qing couldn't help but show a look of surprise. It didn't take long for him to find the area he was looking for and finding it was even easier than the first location because of the nature of the area. nove-lb-In
The next region was a nexus harmonic garden. This was a region in which spiritual plants of different elements grew together without an imbalance or competition for resources.
Just like the blood pond where the different bloodlines blended together into one homogenous solution, in a nexus harmonic garden, spiritual plants of different elements seemed to coexist together.
A nexus harmonic garden could either form naturally or artificially and Yang Qing could tell that the one before him was a natural one.
The soil below and the spiritual qi surrounding the area had the perfect balance of the five elements with not one being overpowered by the other which was how spiritual plants of different elements were able to grow within the area.
The medical valley had something similar but theirs was through human manipulation and its scale was much larger than the garden before him.
The area had about forty spiritual herbs spread over three acres which was the sphere of influence of the nexus harmonic garden. As for their grade, the bulk were at the middle tier of sky grade which was a decent quality. Given enough time, their quality was likely to improve.
Just like before Yang Qing scanned the area for any traces that might be in the area and like before he detected the traces of the daughter of the obsidian serpent and the fire adler bear. However, he was surprised when he detected another familiar aura mixed in the area, it was Meifeng's.
"They likely used this place to quell the volatility in the absorbed bloodline by using the harmonic energy present in the area.." muttered Yang Qing as he walked around the area in search of more clues.
When he didn't find much he moved on to the other area. Meifeng had given him four locations.
The next place he visited had a shallow lake that had a single mosaic flower at the center. Despite it being midday the area had a cool temperature, and the origin of it seemed to be both the lake and the mosaic flower working in tandem.
Even if he couldn't tell much from the trace. it at least told him there had been another person there.
"I wonder if the trace is for the Lady Gild that Meifeng mentioned?" wondered Yang Qing as his look went back to normal.
Yang Qing rested up for a few minutes to recover his expended soul essence before he moved on to the last and final location.
The last location had nothing of note except for a boulder in the middle of a forest. Yang Qing instantly recognized the boulder the moment he laid eyes on it. The boulder looked to be made of two colors. The front side was slightly dark, it looked almost like a shadow, while the back side was dark orange.
It was like the essence of the setting of the sun was captured within that boulder.
"The sunset heart seeking boulder.." Yang Qing muttered as he placed his hand on the boulder.
He could feel a slow warmness being released by it that seemed to calm his mind.
The sunset heart-seeking boulder was great for tempering the mind and the heart by promoting a meditative environment.
As long as one cultivated next to it they would find their heart and mind slowly synching into one. Scattered messy thoughts would be lined up and an anxious heart would find itself slowly being rid of its anxiousness.
Yang Qing took one of the twigs lying around on the ground, cleared some of the leaves next to it, and proceeded to write something.
"Body, alignment, soul, and heart.." were the words written on the ground. Body was at the top, alignment to the east, soul to the south, and heart to the west. Yang Qing completed the writing by drawing a circle that linked the four.
"Breaking through from the gold body to the diamond body and eventually the peerless jade physique, the training I went through covered these four principles.
It seems like the fire adler bear had been preparing her body for something by having her go through these foundational steps.
But I have never heard of spirit beasts using the foundation circle. It is something we use.."
