**Chapter 42: Imparting Cultivation. Goods?**
These jade stones ranged in size from human heads to fists. Their edges had been polished smooth, and the parts exposed from the stone wall resembled hemispherical incandescent lamp covers.
There were a total of three hundred and sixty-five of these polished Hotan White Jade stones.
Arranged in the order of the Grand Cycle, they surrounded the inner circle of Silver Gemstones. Each jade stone was carved with Spirit Rune Talismans, emitting a milky white radiance from the stone wall.
These white jade stones were authentic Hotan Jade airlifted from *Country. Although they didn't reach the level of suet jade seeds, the value of this entire wall was enough to buy the Tang Estate where Tang Song currently resided.
The Silver Gemstones embedded in the inner circle, conversely, were not as expensive. The seventy-two Silver Gemstones were all Artificial Creations, a mixture of Mica, Pearl, and Tortoise Shell, refined by Tang Song.
These Artificial Gemstones had miraculous effects in Gathering Lunar Essence Qi, so Tang Song used them as the core of the Formation.
These jade stones and gemstones on the cave ceiling condensed the Lunar Yin Essence Qi, gathering it within this cave.
The cave, which originally looked eerie and ghostly without lights, was now filled with a veil-like mist carrying a faint scent of grass and wood. Combined with the milky white radiance from above, it felt as if one had suddenly stepped into a fantasy world.
Tang Song stepped onto the floor tiles completely paved with azure jade, took a deep breath, and felt the rich Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, somewhat intoxicated.
Although the renovated cave couldn't be called a Grotto-Heaven, even in the Jambudvīpa World, it could be described as a Spirit Vein.
A Spirit Vein that Rogue Cultivators below the Forming the Core stage would fight tooth and nail for.
"This is the power of Money," Tang Song patted the Jade Vat in the center of the Altar.
This was carved directly from a single piece of Jade Stone.
A single piece of Azure White Jade weighing over ten tons, discovered by jade miners in the Kunlun Mountain Mine. Just extracting and transporting it from the mine cost several million RMB.
And in Tang Song's hands, the price of this Jade Stone had increased by more than tenfold.
Tang Song specifically hired skilled Artisans from China, who spent half a month carving this Jade Stone into a Jade Vat.
Inside the human-height Jade Vat, clear water rippled. In the water, two Koi Carp, one black and one white, swam around. At the bottom of the vat, a few black Lotus Seeds were half-buried in a layer of black mud.
From time to time, Bubbles would rise in the Jade Vat. Those weren't the Koi Carp breathing oxygen; beneath a layer of mud, at the bottom of the azure jade vat, layers upon layers of Runes were carved.
These Runes connected with the azure jade bricks on the Altar, forming a massive Spirit Gathering Array.
The core of the Formation was this Jade Vat. The vat concentrated one-third of the Spiritual Energy gathered within the Spirit Vein.
The location of this Jade Vat had another name in the Yanfu Continent—the Spirit Eye! Two Jade Plates floated on the surface of the water in the Jade Vat. On one Jade Plate, two silver pellets the size of pigeon eggs emitted a faint Radiance.
On the other Jade Plate, a Small Black Snake lay on the edge, licking the water in the vat with its small mouth.
Inside the cave, the only thing that remained unchanged might be the thirty-six black, gold-lettered Upright Coffins.
The Upright Coffins were half-open, revealing the thirty-six Bronze Armored Corpses within. At this moment, their bodies were a brilliant yellow, as if covered in a layer of golden armor.
...
Four Jade Meditation Cushions were casually placed. Tang Song sat cross-legged on one cushion, wearing a loose cloud-water azure Daoist Robe.
On the Jade Meditation Cushions opposite him, Lane and Frank were both in a state of meditation, Five Hearts Facing Heaven. Two beams of Radiance, one black and one red, enveloped their bodies.
On another cushion, Kane awkwardly shifted his butt, struggling to cross his two large hairy legs. He looked at Tang Song pitifully and said, "Boss, do I have to sit like this to cultivate your Magic Arts?"
Tang Song ignored Kane's complaint, his eyes radiating a captivating brilliance. He spoke in a voice almost like hypnosis, "Alright, no complaining. This is the most orthodox Five Hearts Facing Heaven sitting posture of the Taoist Sect! It allows for better contact with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi! Follow the Incantation I told you, use your Spirit to search for the Primordial Qi Inside the Body, and imagine them circulating along the simplest Circulation Route."
Kane closed his eyes, gritting his teeth tightly, concentrating on recalling the Incantation from the Manual Tang Song had shown him.
His Spirit searched Inside the Body for that Primordial Qi, whatever it was.
Kane secretly groaned in his heart, "Boss keeps talking about Primordial Qi, saying to use my Innate Primordial Qi to form a circulation, attract Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, and then I can become Superman... Do I even have Primordial Qi? Why can't I find it? How did Lane find it?"
Kane exerted his whole body, his Joints making 'crackling' Sounds, almost startling Tang Song.
Tang Song muttered, "What's Kane's Problem? Other cultivators are peaceful and leisurely, with a Peaceful Mindset, their Energy circulates naturally. Why are you acting like you're fighting someone? Is feeling your own Primordial Qi that difficult? Anyone who didn't know better would think you've gone mad... What the hell is going on?"
Tang Song got up and flashed behind Kane, gently placing his right hand on his heavily muscled back. He whispered, "Kane, recall the Incantation. Use your Spirit to search for those things that can flow, that feel a bit Warmth, in those few Meridians." Tang Song's palm slightly heated up, and a wisp of faint True Essence slowly penetrated into Kane's most basic Circulation Meridians, trying to guide Kane's Primordial Qi.
Kane, with a troubled expression, followed the steps Tang Song whispered. His Mind followed that faint Warmth as it circulated, but that wisp of Warmth had already circulated countless times within those few Meridians, and he still hadn't found anything.
