Double helices are summaries of life information or history. A Nascent Soul is created by intertwining Qi and soul, and elevating it to the Plane of Soul.
'All of life's genetics contain the power of Yin and Yang.'
And between the power of Yin and Yang, the information of life is recorded and passed down.
Likewise, human life itself rotates within the spiritual energy of Yin and Yang, continuously recorded in the world itself.
'My soul also contains the energy of Yin and Yang, and between them, my own records are inscribed....'
What becomes visible in the state of Nascent Soul where Qi and Soul intertwine.
That is the true nature of the visions seen in the state of Nascent Soul.
Qi is Life.
And Life is History.
The Axis (Four-Axis realm), similar to the Nascent Soul, can manifest as a surface, point, or three-dimensional object. Since both are composed of information, does this prove their non-dimensional nature and same with spiritual power/Qi?I hold back a scream, but the Black Dragon, paying no heed, meticulously disassembles and observes the deepest parts of my body.
Bones and flesh disintegrate.
Blood and organs disintegrate.
Eventually, every single cell disintegrates.
The countless double helices sleeping within each cell, the Yin and Yang of spiritual energy rotating within my body, are laid bare before the Black Dragon.
Despite being in the mental world, my body is manifested as if it's real, and despite having reached Treading Heavens Beyond the Path and mastered the Wonderfully Mysterious Innate Heart Canon, I am powerless before the Black Dragon's gaze.
As the Black Dragon flips through my body, information about Yin, Yang, and double helices that it sees unfolds before my eyes as well.
[Double helices are the summary of all information and the history of the existence called life. Child, do you know why the races that grow life by exploding spiritual energy are called the Earth Tribe?]
[If the heavens are fate, then earth is history. History is information, and information is life. Therefore, all those who strive towards the extreme of life are all part of the Earth Tribe.]
An Axis is a kind of Nascent Soul.
However, unlike the Nascent Soul created during the Nascent Soul stage, which imprints one's very self, an Axis is a Nascent Soul imprinted with a specific attribute.
In other words, it is a Nascent Soul that maximizes an attribute rather than a personality.
Since the Nascent Soul is spiritual power that's on the Plane of Soul, and not the soul itself, when separated from the soul and compressed within the body, there's no risk of the body being stolen.
The standard method to obtain an Orthodox Axis Foundation is to gather a large amount of an attribute's energy, perform a ritual at the Plane of Qi, and, just like creating a Nascent Soul, elevate it to the Plane of Soul and then connect it to one's own Nascent Soul.
Hence, an Axis has no definite form.
It can be a surface, a point, or a three-dimensional object. That is the Axis.
