Chapter 285: Meeting, Ancient Cultivator's Cave, Heart Sword Technique
It can be said that Chen Yushu’s biggest opportunity in this world, apart from the attribute panel, is the trip to Huangshan.
It almost laid the foundation for his practice.
From then on, apart from magical means, there was almost no need to worry about the inheritance of practice.
At least, it was like this before he cultivated to the Soul Refining Realm, and even after he reached the Soul Refining Realm.
The art of communicating with the underworld is definitely a powerful inheritance that can penetrate his path of cultivation.
You know, the Taoist priest of Hundred Ghosts only obtained the Book of Hundred Ghosts Wandering at Night, but he made such a big name and was known as one of the Seven True Ones of Wu State.
However, through comparison, Chen Yushu knew very well that the Book of the Underworld was definitely stronger than the Book of a Hundred Ghosts Wandering at Night.
After all, the Book of a Hundred Ghosts Wandering at Night only seals the hundreds of ghosts, allowing cultivators to summon corresponding ghosts to fight for them after their strength reaches a certain level.
For example, the evil-faced ghost, the pig-demon elephant, the flying blood zombie, etc. are all recorded in the book of the Night Wandering of a Hundred Ghosts. They are among the ghosts summoned by the Taoist priest of the Hundred Ghosts in the early days.
But they are all famous, adding glory to the legendary journey of Baigui Taoist.
but.
The Book of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is called a book, but in fact it is a top-level magical instrument and treasure.
It is a weapon to defend against enemies that the Huangshan Patriarch subdued ghosts from the underworld with the help of the art of communicating with the underworld, and then sealed them one by one in a book.
The Book of the Underworld is a legacy.
It is a top-level inheritance that can create countless books of the underworld.
Although he didn't know why the Taoist chose the Book of the Night Wandering of a Hundred Ghosts, in his opinion, the book of the underworld was the most valuable.
All of this was due to the guidance given by the one favored by God.
Of course he felt grateful to the other party.
"Fellow psychic, how are you?"
Soon, the sensor disk was connected, and then a familiar voice was heard.
It is Li Yangyang, the one favored by God.
He was in a good mood at the moment, with a hint of lightness in his tone.
“I’m fine.
Fellow Daoist of the Divine Blessing, have you come to Qinghe County?"
Chen Yushu asked immediately.
"That's right. I just finished something and was about to turn back when I suddenly remembered that Fellow Daoist Jiuhulu mentioned last time that you were in Qinghe County, so I took a short detour to come and say hello."
The God-favored One replied.
"Oh? Then fellow Daoist favored by the gods, if you have time, come over and get together."
Chen Yushu was stunned when he heard this, then asked with a smile.
"Then I'll nag you!"
…
Although Chen Yushu and the god-favored Li Yangyang did not have much interaction, they had a close relationship because of the induction disk.
They both consider each other to be trustworthy friends.
Plus we had met before.
Soon, a tall and thin figure appeared in Chen Yushu's yard.
Li Yangyang is the one favored by God.
"Friend Psychic, long time no see."
The one favored by God spoke first.
Chen Yushu smiled and invited him to take a seat, saying, "Fellow Daoist favored by the gods, please take a seat."
"I really didn't expect that fellow Daoist's strength would improve so quickly."
As soon as he took his seat, the divine favored one's gaze fell on Chen Yushu, and his tone was full of emotion, "I remember when I first came into contact with fellow Taoist, although I had never met him in person, I actually guessed in my heart that fellow Taoist should be someone who had just started practicing Yin cultivation.
At most, it is the level of two or three incense sticks.
It was later proved that the Taoist's strength at that time was indeed not very high.
That's why I suggested that you participate in the inheritance trial tower set up by Huangshan Patriarch, which takes place every thirty years."
In order to entertain the one favored by God, Chen Yushu had invited people to a nearby hotel early, ordered a large table of food, and prepared fine wine. After a glass of wine, the one favored by God spoke, seeming to be very emotional.
"yes!
My cultivation level was indeed not very high at that time."
Chen Yushu nodded and took a sip of wine.
In fact, his cultivation level at that time was even lower than he imagined, and he had just entered the second incense stick level of cultivation.
It was only because of his advantage in entering the state of meditation that his cultivation speed was far superior to that of other cultivators.
Only in this way could he cultivate to the Three Sticks of Incense level in such a short period of time, and then before participating in the Huangshan Trial Tower, he barely raised his cultivation to the Three Sticks of Incense level of perfection.
“After receiving the inheritance, I heard that you broke through to the Dao Entry Realm through seclusion.
I thought you still needed some time to calm down.
But I didn't expect that I would hear the news of your brilliant performance from Jiuhulu last time.
His fighting power is not inferior to those veteran Dao-entry cultivators at all."
Having said that, the God-favored One couldn't help but look Chen Yushu up and down.
This did shock him a bit.
After all, he watched Chen Yushu grow up step by step.
Although there is not much contact, the improvement in strength is indeed astonishingly fast.
In a trance, he wondered in his heart whether his friend's strength at this moment was stronger than his own?
“Thank you for the compliment.
I was just relying on the power of the altar at that time.
There is still a gap in true strength compared to the veteran Daoist cultivators."
Chen Yushu said with a slight humility.
Of course, what he said was just the situation at that time.
Even though the time interval between him and me is not that long, his strength has changed dramatically compared to before.
He could deal with one or two monks who had entered the Night Wandering stage, and was slightly better than them in battle, not to mention monks who had entered the Out-of-Body stage.
"That's quite remarkable."
The one favored by God said with emotion.
Chen Yushu just smiled.
If the other party knew that he had already entered the state of leaving the body and was about to achieve perfection, and was about to break through to the night-wandering realm, he would probably be even more shocked.
Of course, Chen Yushu would not bring it up on his own initiative.
Even if he really broke through to the realm of night wandering, he would not reveal it easily, and might even hide it.
After all, as the one favored by God said, his cultivation speed was too fast.
If other people knew about it, they would definitely suspect that he had some special qualities or treasure that could speed up his cultivation, and thus would set their sights on him, causing trouble.
After three rounds of wine, the dishes have five flavors.
The God-favored One suddenly said, "However, you must be careful during this period of time."
"Um?
Why do you say that, fellow Daoist?"
Chen Yushu's heart tightened, but he asked calmly.
“The last time you took action, when you opened the altar, the means you displayed were extraordinary.
But there were also many people who saw the ghosts you invited out at that time.
Several of them clearly have certain similarities with the ghosts that the Taoist Hundred Ghosts often summoned in the early days.
It is easy for people to make associations and suspect that you have a treasure like the Book of the Night Wandering of One Hundred Ghosts that belongs to the Hundred Ghosts Taoist.
I guess someone will be tempted and want to take advantage of you.
In addition, once the Taoist Baigui learned that someone had obtained the same inheritance as himself, he would probably feel curious.
And it just so happens that I learned that Taoist Baigui is recently near Daocheng County, not far from Tianling County... Although he may also take care of you because you are also one of the people who inherited the legacy of the Huangshan Patriarch in the Huangshan Inheritance Cliff.
But he is one of the Seven True Masters of Wu State after all, and his strength is earth-shattering.
As cultivators who are far weaker than their opponents, we should be cautious in engaging with them."
The one favored by God first explained, then his face became serious and he couldn't help but utter a warning.
"This... Thank you for telling me, the one who is favored by God. I will make a note of it."
Chen Yushu was stunned at first, then a serious look appeared on his face, and he spoke solemnly.
He had thought that someone might target him because of his various strangeness, but he had never considered that the Taoist Master Baigui might also attack him.
But if you think about it carefully, it's normal.
Although the opponent is one of the Seven True Ones of Wu State, he is very powerful and has an amazing record.
But this does not mean that the other party is a good person.
Immortal cultivators never differentiate between good and evil.
Everything is based on strength.
As for the other party, as a cultivator who also received the inheritance from the Huangshan Patriarch more than a hundred years ago, what he obtained was the inheritance from the same lineage as the Book of the Underworld.
It is very normal to be curious about monks who have mastered the corresponding methods.
I don’t know whether the other party knows the existence of the Book of the Underworld.
If they knew, they would most likely set their sights on this inheritance and set their sights on him.
The key point is, according to what the God-favored One said, the other party is not far away from him.
Considering the other party's cultivation level and strength, if his soul travels day and night, it is estimated that one hour will be enough.
Although the other party does not necessarily have malicious intentions, but as the one favored by God said.
If the gap in strength is too great, it will make people feel uneasy regardless of whether the other party has malicious intentions or not.
And he has never relied on the goodwill of others for his life and death.
"certainly.
No one knows what such a strong person is thinking, so it is meaningless for us to think too much.
I came here this time to ask you something, are you interested?"
Then, the God-favored One quickly changed the subject and spoke.
"What is it?"
Chen Yushu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
“I’ve actually mentioned this to you before.
I originally planned to wait for half a year, until your realm was completely stabilized, before bringing it up with you.
But now that your strength has stabilized, it is comparable to that of a veteran cultivator who has entered the Dao realm.
So I want to put this matter on the agenda.
By the way, before coming here, Fellow Daoist Violet also talked to me about this matter.
She also wants you to participate.”
The God-favored One was silent for a moment, then spoke.
“It was mentioned.
But at that time, fellow Daoist didn’t say what the specific matter was.”
After a brief thought, Chen Yushu remembered that when he had just broken through to the Dao Entry Realm, the other party had indeed asked for his help.
However, at that time, he had just broken through and his strength was unstable, so the other party only mentioned it briefly and didn't say much.
Therefore, he didn't know what exactly happened.
“Three years ago, we discovered an ancient cultivator’s cave.
The cave was shrouded in a large formation, and one could vaguely see a huge medicinal field and large areas of spiritual materials inside.
But after we broke through the formation with great difficulty, we discovered that there was a black bear monster in the cave.
The black bear demon was extremely powerful. No matter how hard we tried, we were no match for it. One of our fellow Taoists even died at its hands.
I had no choice but to retreat, and temporarily gave up the idea of continuing to break in."
The God-favored One shook his head and said.
"Ancient Cultivator's Cave?"
Chen Yushu was stunned.
The ancient cultivators mentioned by the gods are naturally not the modern cultivators who practice underworld tactics.
But they are immortal cultivators who existed hundreds or thousands of years ago.
He is a cultivator who practices Qi refining to cultivate immortality, forms elixir to achieve enlightenment, and flies across the void on a sword.
It is an ancient practice that is different from his current practice system.
Although there is not much difference between the two in essence, both are for the purpose of becoming strong and living a long life.
But it must be said that the glory of the ancient monks was far greater than it is now.
The Yin-walking monks basically relied on the ancient cultivation system to gradually develop and grow. And the legacy therein may not be absorbed even after thousands of years.
For example, the method of controlling the sword with the soul used by the monks in the Night Wandering Realm is based on the sword-controlling method inherited from the ancient monks, and is absorbed and transformed from it.
"If it was an ordinary ancient cultivator's cave, after our failure that time, we would naturally choose to cooperate with other cultivators to open it together.
But afterwards we looked up ancient books and found that it was actually the cave of Wutong Zhenren, the elder of the ancient sword cultivation sect, the Heart Sword Sect's Transmission Pavilion.
It is very likely that the Heart Sword Sect's true skills and top-level flying swords are hidden inside.
In particular, the Heart Sword technique that is truly passed down within the Heart Sword Sect is also the most suitable method for us, the Yin cultivators, to control the sword with our spirits and souls.
Once I am in action, not only will I be invincible when fighting against the enemy, but I will also be much faster than the average soul-controlling sword cultivator, and my strength and means will soar significantly.
So we privately decided to keep this news secret for now, and to explore again when our strength has increased and we are more confident."
The God-favored One was silent for a moment, then spoke.
"So you thought of me?
But why me?"
Chen Yushu frowned slightly.
He did not comment on the ancient cultivator's cave.
Although I am curious, I am not very excited.
After all, his current path of cultivation is going very smoothly. He estimates that as long as he continues to practice step by step, he will be able to reach the level of daily travel within two to three years at most.
But he had to admit that the crisis mentioned by the God-favored One just now still made him take it seriously.
It just so happened that he was about to break through to the night-wandering realm, and that was when he needed the sword-controlling technique.
Originally, he was thinking about earning great merits through the Yin-Zhen Division to exchange for the corresponding method of controlling the sword with his soul.
And the last time he exchanged for the Five Elements Thunder Technique, he also saw that a method of controlling a sword with the soul requires at least five great merits, which is much more than the Five Elements Thunder Technique.
The key point is that the method of controlling the sword with the soul is not very advanced.
Instead of accumulating great merits to exchange for the corresponding, not-so-sophisticated method of controlling the sword with the soul, and not knowing when to accumulate enough, it would be better to follow the group of people favored by the gods and give it a try.
But before that, there are some things he naturally needs to understand clearly.
At least ensure safety and feasibility.
The most important thing is to make sure whether that cave really contains top-level sword-controlling techniques such as the Heart Sword Technique.
