Yulin Pavilion, Shaolin Academy
"All things in Heaven and Earth, if not nurtured by the Three Elements and led by the Nine Qi, cannot be born. Therefore, the Three Elements are the nobility of Heaven and Earth, and Nine Qi is the root of all things. Hence, it is known that the Three Elements existed before Heaven and Earth were opened, before the Three Powers (Heaven, Earth, and Man) were complete."
"The Three Elements are, first, the Chaotic Primordial Jade Void Qi; second, the Returning Ruins Unpretentious Purple Void Qi; third, the Mysterious Silent Communicating Netherworld Clear Void Qi."
"Once the Three Elements were established, the Five Elements were all present, and their essence comprised three: the Yin, the Yang, and the Harmony. The Yin includes Lesser Yin and Greater Yin (Old Yin); the Yang includes Lesser Yang and Greater Yang (Old Yang), with the central Harmony merging the virtues of the Five Elements."
