Chapter 360: What is the Purple Mansion? This is Qi Yuan's Purple Mansion!

"Long hair, short on experience," Qi Yuan couldn't help but blurt out upon hearing the voices of these old men and women.

Yes, they all had long hair, with their locks reaching down to their waists.

According to ancient sayings on Blue Star, they were already eligible to be married.

However, Qi Yuan realized something and added, "Except for me and my wife."

As a cultivator, Qi Yuan had long, flowing hair, and the same went for Jin Sique, needless to say.

"Hmph! Nonsense! How can the Primordial Origin Technique be comprehended with the help of others?" The elder with the pure red mask couldn't help but speak up.

The others also felt that Qi Yuan was stirring up trouble.

"In the vast universe, anything is possible. Why do you speak with such certainty? Just because you haven't seen it, how can you be sure it doesn't exist?" Qi Yuan said casually.

You cannot know the joy of fish if you are not a fish.

This saying was the ultimate comeback in any argument.

"Even celestial beings in the heavens can't do it, so who can?" The pure red mask elder retorted.

"Can celestial beings claim invincibility?" Qi Yuan said indifferently, "There are even stronger beings above celestial beings.

Moreover, it is common knowledge that cultivators who reach the final stages of their journey can attain omniscience and omnipotence. How could they not be able to help others comprehend the Primordial Origin?"

Qi Yuan always spoke with logic and evidence, never making baseless claims.

To put it bluntly, if he failed in his cultivation and returned to Blue Star, he could even open a shop and help others write their research papers.

"You..." The pure red mask elder was left speechless.

He felt that Qi Yuan was twisting the truth.

At this moment, the man cloaked in a purple robe spoke up, "What this fellow cultivator says is not false. Generally speaking, no one can help others comprehend the Primordial Origin once they reach the Purple Mansion realm.

But this world is full of surprises. I once heard that in a certain realm, there was a Purple Mansion cultivator who gave lectures, and out of ten thousand Divine Embryos who went to listen to his teachings, all of them entered the Purple Mansion realm."

"What?"

"Ten thousand Divine Embryos listening to his teachings?"

"And he wasn't a celestial being or a deity?"

"Haha, who knows if this is just some made-up story?" The pure red mask elder glared at the purple-robed man with an unkind expression.

"What I say is the truth," the purple-robed man's voice turned cold, and for a moment, a deep and boundless aura leaked out.

The Divine Embryos present felt this aura, and their faces changed, revealing looks of fear.

"A grandmaster of the Purple Mansion!"

"The Purple Mansion realm!"

The initial doubts and discussions vanished in an instant.

The pure red mask elder, who had been so aggressive, now became more accepting, "The grandmaster's words must be true. It's just that I have a shallow understanding."

Obviously, the Purple Mansion realm had a significant advantage over the Divine Embryo cultivators.

For cultivators, strength represented everything.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan became reluctant, "Why did you refute me but agree with him so easily?"

The pure red mask elder turned to Qi Yuan and said, "He is a grandmaster of the Purple Mansion, and you are not."

Qi Yuan's expression turned dejected, "Sigh, I'm not a grandmaster of the Purple Mansion, I'm just a small Divine Embryo."

Indeed, in the Canglan World, he was still at the Divine Embryo stage.

The pure red mask elder ignored Qi Yuan and stood up, offering the seat of honor to the purple-robed grandmaster.

Qi Yuan still couldn't swallow his pride, "Although I'm at the Divine Embryo stage, my main character is a Yang Immortal. Is that okay?"

The pure red mask elder clearly didn't believe him and chuckled, "No, it has to be the Purple Mansion."

None of the cultivators present took Qi Yuan's words seriously.

After all, the appearance of a grandmaster of the Purple Mansion was already quite intimidating and unexpected.

Could a Yang Immortal, who rivaled the heavens, be here? Was he brainless? It was like someone from a village in the Eastern Country of Blue Star claiming to be the number one person in the neighboring country.

No one in the village would believe it, even if they joked about him being from the Eastern Country.

"Not even a Yang Immortal, sigh." Qi Yuan felt dejected.

No one paid attention to Qi Yuan, as all eyes were focused on the purple-robed grandmaster. After all, the Purple Mansion realm was extremely rare in the Three Realms.

The grandmaster continued, "The grand cultivator I spoke of was actually a reincarnated grandmaster.

The path he founded in his realm allowed the Purple Mansion cultivator to easily guide others into the Purple Mansion realm."

Upon hearing this, everyone had a sudden realization.

Some felt delighted or dejected upon hearing such a secret.

"The immortal path is vast, and anything is possible."

"The higher the cultivation, the more one realizes their insignificance."

The Divine Embryo cultivators sighed.

At this moment, Jin Sique leaned close to Qi Yuan's ear and transmitted her voice, "Is he talking about you, Blood Pearl?"

"Probably," Qi Yuan replied hesitantly.

"I heard that the former Blood Master gave lectures, and in his blood-red robe, he was extraordinary. Ten thousand land-based mythical beings bowed to him.

It's a pity I didn't get to see your past glory.

How about it, next time, can you wear a red robe for me?"

The girl's breath was like orchids, and she blinked her eyes, her expression soft and alluring, with a hint of playfulness and affection in her words.

Qi Yuan, through his mask, gazed at the young girl's fair face and couldn't help but speak, "Xiao Jia has seen it, you should ask her."

The girl's eyes widened in surprise. "Xiao Jia has seen it, but I, the young miss, haven't!"

Qi Yuan held the girl's delicate hand and spoke with conviction, "Arrest, you are Ning Tao!"

The Golden Canary addressed Xiao Jia as 'elder sister'.

Ning Tao called Xiao Jia 'younger sister'.

Ning Tao's face immediately turned red, "Blood Pearl, I am not Ning Tao!"

The two communicated through sound transmission, their conversation swift.

At this moment, the Pure Red Masked Elder took a step forward, his voice sincere, "Please, senior, enlighten us with your teachings and guide us on the path ahead!"

Their group of Divine Embryo cultivators discussed the path, but how could they compare to a Purple Mansion cultivator? The other cultivators also looked on with anticipation at the Purple Mansion cultivator.

Just then, the Purple Robed Daoist's gaze, rarely seen, fell upon Qi Yuan, "I wonder, fellow Daoist, what are your thoughts on the Purple Mansion?"

This Purple Robed Daoist was curious about Qi Yuan's background and wanted to probe his true nature.

"Regarding the Purple Mansion, I do have some insights. I have a friend who once shared an ingenious idea—the character 'fu' in 'zi fu' (Purple Mansion) suggests a dwelling. So, it's a purple-colored dwelling!" Qi Yuan directly plagiarized the words of Zhi Da Zhen Jun, but he added a citation, so it wasn't considered plagiarism.

Upon hearing this, the Divine Embryos in the room were stunned, then burst into laughter.

"Is there such a theory?"

"Are you joking, fellow Daoist?"

"If we follow this logic, I would say the Purple Mansion is a dwelling formed from Primordial Purple Qi!"

"This dwelling is the Five Viscera and Six Bowels!"

"It's clearly the Heavenly Palace!"

These Divine Embryos were also spouting nonsense.

Qi Yuan paused, deep in thought, "A dwelling formed from Primordial Purple Qi?"

"Purple represents the extreme of a hundred colors. Primordial Purple Qi is also known as Chaotic Qi, or Mother Qi of All Things. It is the beginning of everything and symbolizes infinite vitality, the first Qi of the Immortal Path.

For the supreme Yang Immortal, Primordial Purple Qi is also an extremely rare treasure! How dare you think of forming a dwelling with it? Even a Yang Immortal can't achieve that!" One of the Divine Embryo cultivators mocked.

At this moment, Qi Yuan turned to the plump cultivator who mentioned Primordial Purple Qi, his face showing excitement, "Sir, your great talent deserves the praise of being extremely clever.

Indeed, there are qilins in the wilderness, and experts among commoners.

Sir, would you remove your mask and let me see the eyes of such wisdom?"

Qi Yuan's attitude was sincere, resembling Liu Bei's three visits to the Thatched Hut.

This made the plump Divine Embryo pause, listening to Qi Yuan's earnest words, unsure if he was being sarcastic or genuine.

"Ahem, no need." The plump Divine Embryo said awkwardly.

The other Divine Embryos in the room also looked on with amusement.

Qi Yuan said, "Sir, you've helped me greatly on Gong Xing. From now on, I'll look out for you!"

Qi Yuan patted his chest.

Qi Yuan wanted to make use of this great intelligence.

Under that clever mind might lie some extraordinary strategy.

"Ahem, okay." The plump Divine Embryo didn't want to offend anyone, so he spoke casually.

In truth, he felt a bit embarrassed, as he considered himself rather ordinary.

Being praised by Qi Yuan made him feel unworthy.

He felt he didn't deserve such praise.

"Sir, do you have any more wise words to share?" Qi Yuan continued to ask.

This was related to his Dao, so he had to be cautious and respectful, and it was only natural to show respect to a wise person.

"Ahem." The plump Divine Embryo coughed, feeling even more unworthy.

But the thought that a fellow cultivator admired him made his heart flutter.

His limited brainpower was working to give Qi Yuan a good answer.

"In the 169th book, the 1st bar, there is no mistake!"

Soon, the plump cultivator spoke, "Regarding the Purple Mansion, every cultivator has their own understanding, and each understanding is different.

For every cultivator, the most suitable Primordial Origin Technique is the best, which means the most suitable Purple Mansion is also the best.

I observe your words, fellow Daoist, and it seems you wish to take an unconventional path, an unconventional Purple Mansion.

Therefore, the most suitable one for you is the most fitting."

In the eyes of the other cultivators, the plump cultivator's words were nonsense, a string of illogical rambling.

It's true that the Primordial Origin Technique is a path one must walk on their own.

But...

The Purple Mansion is different.

Purple Mansions in the world are similar, there's no such thing as suitable or unsuitable.

Qi Yuan seemed deep in thought, listening intently like a devoted student.

"Therefore, observing your words, fellow Daoist, you advocate that the Purple Mansion is a dwelling, and thus propose that purple represents purple Qi.

You can explore the character 'fu' and may gain some insights."

The plump cultivator cleared his throat, quite satisfied with his words.

But it still lacked a crucial point, a supporting argument.

He added, "The path of cultivation emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang, the fusion of Heaven and Earth, and the natural Dao. If you follow this line of thought, you will surely not go astray.

The other Divine Embryo Cultivators couldn't help but laugh at this.

The words of the plump cultivator were meaningless to them, except for the last sentence, which was a clever adaptation of an ancient saying.

But Qi Yuan, upon hearing this, furrowed his brows, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"A Purple Mansion suitable for myself?"

In this world, the most powerful beings are immeasurable, indefinable, and unobservable.

The Purple Mansion is a realm, a common cultivation stage.

However, a powerful Purple Mansion is undoubtedly indefinable.

Or perhaps, the Purple Mansion he lacked was the ideal one, the definable one.

This was similar to certain powerful beings who could automatically adjust their perspectives, randomly switching to a viewpoint that favored them.

Qi Yuan had an epiphany after listening to the plump cultivator's speech.

"Master, I've attained enlightenment!"

Indeed, Qi Yuan had a realization.

What was he lacking in his current state? What was the purpose of his diligent cultivation? It was for freedom, for greatness, and to leave no regrets.

But there were too many regrets along the way.

On the Moon Gazing Continent, within the Five Elements Forbidden Land, the sacrifices of the five ancestors—the Gold Ancestor, Water Ancestor, Wood Ancestor, and others—to allow Qi Yuan to control the forbidden land, was a regret.

Not meeting Jin Li under the Ancient Cypress was another regret.

In the city of No Return, where three people guarded a city, the deaths of Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao, whose names were only remembered by Qi Yuan, were also regrets.

There were too many regrets like these.

Once, Qi Yuan had said that one day, he would reestablish the Five Elements, transforming the false into reality and the void into substance, allowing the five ancestors to return to the world.

This was the plan he had yet to complete.

Now... couldn't the Purple Mansion be approached in this way?

As the saying goes, Yin and Yang complement each other.

The Primordial Qi is the Ultimate Yang of Heaven and Earth, symbolizing infinite vitality and the root of all resurrection.

If Yang exists, does that mean Yin is lacking?

What is the ultimate Yin in this world?

The Netherworld!

Indeed, for Qi Yuan, the Netherworld was the ultimate Yin, filled with Yin spirits.

Within it, the Six Paths of Reincarnation connect Yin and Yang.

Therefore, the Netherworld is the most suitable Yin.

This was predestined by the universe.

What is the Purple Mansion?

It's the Netherworld filled with the Mother Qi of all things, the Primordial Qi!

Qi Yuan felt incredibly creative.

By reshaping the past with Primordial Qi, he could make them revive in the Netherworld and guide them into it.

In this way, the five ancestors in the Five Elements Forbidden Land would also be resurrected.

All of Qi Yuan's past regrets could be nurtured and revived within the Purple Mansion.

Qi Yuan's Primordial Origin Technique, Void Realm Sovereign · Heart Demon Guidance, and the Great Mind Forgetting Sutra were also well-suited for the Netherworld.

The Heart Demon Guidance could create the Eighteen Levels of Hell, tormenting those who enter with heart demons.

The Great Mind Forgetting Sutra could be like the Forgetfulness Soup and the River of Forgetlessness, erasing the memories of all cultivators who drink it.

But this Purple Mansion was not just for reviving the past; its combat power was also extraordinary.

First, find an unknown world, and as soon as the Purple Mansion opens, it will attract enemies.

Yes, the Primordial Qi will spread.

What is the Primordial Qi?

It's the Ultimate Treasure of Heaven and Earth. Upon seeing the Primordial Qi, wouldn't enemies be tempted? The Primordial Qi represents infinite vitality; it's the Mother Qi of all things, the limit of life.

There won't be any danger here, nor any forbidden lands, but it will be challenging to capture.

So, upon seeing the Primordial Qi, all Yang Immortals will be unable to resist capturing it.

Good... but they will be punished as soon as they try to capture it.

Beneath the Primordial Qi lies the eerie Netherworld.

Sorry, but anyone who comes to capture it will fall into hell.

Those Yang Immortals who come to seize the Primordial Qi probably won't understand why they end up in hell.

Entering Qi Yuan's Purple Mansion, they won't escape his manipulation?

What Heart Demon Guidance? What Great Mind Forgetting Sutra?

Unfavorable enemies will be directly annihilated.

Favorable enemies will have their spirits and true spirits wiped clean, leaving only their cultivation intact, waiting for new true spirits to grow and serve Qi Yuan.

Absolutely brilliant! Qi Yuan admired himself, but he also felt that the path to the Purple Mansion was a long and arduous one.

Looking at the plump cultivator, he spoke earnestly, "I won't dare forget your kindness in imparting the Dao.

When you ascend one day, I won't even collect your remains, but rest assured, I will resurrect you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, laughter erupted once again.

"Resurrection? Are you claiming to be the Dao Ancestor?"

"Even a Dao Ancestor of a realm might not be able to do that, right?"

"I'll take your place in thanking him, hahaha!"

The plump cultivator looked at Qi Yuan, his expression changing repeatedly.

Who would curse someone to death like this?

However, seeing Qi Yuan's sincerity, he couldn't help but sigh, thinking that Qi Yuan's low emotional intelligence might be the reason.

This young brother was still the passionate type he liked.

"Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist. If my spirit is extinguished, I will definitely become a ghost and come find you." The plump cultivator responded with high emotional intelligence.

After speaking, he felt satisfied with himself.
