Azure Dragon Qi, Profound Thunder Qi, Ice Soul Qi, Golden Yang Qi, Taiyin Qi...
Bai Cang pushed the "Zhaoling Tianmu" to its limit, and a dazzling array of colors immediately shone through the fierce winds of the Nine Heavens.
Within his "naked eye's" field of vision, hundreds of streams of qi crisscrossed and moved with incredible speed.
It was like dragons and snakes dancing wildly, sweeping across the sky!
However, Bai Cang could not apply the ordinary cultivator's method of refining qi.
The difference between the Heavenly Qi and the Earthly Yin Qi lies in the fact that the Yin Qi resides below the Ten Earths and is often the same kind of Yin Qi, which condenses into the Earthly Yin Vein.
Once you find the location of the evil vein, you don't need any special methods. Just follow your own cultivation technique and release your own magical power to absorb the evil energy and refine it.
However, the Heavenly Qi resides high above the nine heavens, where dozens or even hundreds of types of Qi are mixed together amidst the boundless gale.
Each type of protective energy corresponds to one or more types of malevolent energy.
If one does not use the proper method, it is impossible to subdue and refine it.
Even if by sheer chance and she gets incredibly lucky, she might manage to capture a wisp of celestial energy.
If it is incompatible with the evil energy one has condensed, not only will refining it not improve one's cultivation, but it will also damage one's cultivation, and may even lead to qi deviation, causing one to explode and die due to the conflict between the qi and the evil energy.
The combination of different types of Qi, their compatibility with one's own cultivation, and the special methods for refining different types of Qi are also important factors that distinguish the great sects of Xuanmen from the unorthodox sects.
Almost every major sect of Xuanmen has a complete set of corresponding methods for its own cultivation techniques.
Both the "recipe" for combining Qi and Sha, and the mental techniques for refining Qi, are closely guarded secrets, rarely circulated outside the public, just like the "Step into Emptiness Secret Technique".
Even if it were obtained by chance, it would be difficult for it to be compatible with one's own cultivation method.
Whether or not a complete system exists is one of the biggest differences between the Xuanmen (Taoist) and the Hexiemen (Historical) sects.
For example, why is Heshan Dao only a side sect, yet unable to benefit from the Xuanmen (Taoist sect)?
Apart from the fact that Heshan Dao has never produced a Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, and has no cultivation method that leads directly to the Primordial Spirit.
The main reason is that these are unorthodox and unorthodox methods, and there is no complete, replicable cultivation system that leads to the primordial spirit realm.
Even if someone from an unorthodox sect occasionally attains the Dao of the Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, it is an unrepeatable "miracle" and is simply insufficient to support them in establishing a sect and becoming a prominent figure in the Xuanmen (mysterious sect).
Moreover, in the ancient era, there were nine wandering immortals supporting the sect.
Now, within this vast unorthodox sect, not even a single Nascent Soul Dao Lord can be found.
The difference between unorthodox and esoteric schools is evident in every aspect, starting from the Qi Refining stage; it's like comparing heaven and earth.
Bai Cang is now considered to have a profound foundation, no less than the true disciples of the Xuanmen sect, and perhaps even surpassing them.
However, the vast majority of his talent and ability comes from his own innate abilities and is entirely due to his own hard work.
Of all the martial arts techniques he possesses, only the "Mysterious Yin Ghost-Slaying and God-Slaying Sword Technique" can be cultivated to the level of a Golden Core True Monarch, in addition to the "Black Water True Method".
The "Mysterious Yin Ghost-Slaying and God-Slaying Sword Technique" only records a few methods of refining Qi that are compatible with "Mysterious Yin Evil Qi".
If Bai Cang were to use it to condense evil spirits and refine qi, the range of choices would be extremely narrow.
Only a few types of Qi are available, such as "Taiyin Gang Qi", "Xuanyin Gang Qi", "Shaoyin Gang Qi" and "Bingpo Gang Qi".
Bai Cang's own foundation is based on "Yin Yang and the Five Elements," so it is impossible for him to cut off his own path, abandon the light and turn to darkness, and specialize in the "Mysterious Yin Ghost-Slaying and God-Slaying Sword Technique."
In other words, if he wants to condense evil spirits and refine qi in the future, he will still have to search for the corresponding methods himself, or simply continue to create his own cultivation methods.
However, these are all things for the future. Even if Bai Cang had the complete Refining Qi Technique now, he wouldn't be able to use it.
This is because he hasn't even formally condensed his Dao foundation, let alone his Qi Condensation; he hasn't even reached the "Qi Refining" stage yet.
However, this did not stump Bai Cang. "If my cultivation level is not high enough, I'll make up for it with cheat codes."
"Who said that without the ability to condense evil spirits, one cannot capture vital energy?"
Bai Cang's mind raced, and as he drifted past a wisp of qi, he suddenly rolled up his sleeves.
"boom!"
The next moment.
A beam of five-colored light spread out, covering an area of several hundred feet.
Then, with a swift turn in mid-air, it captured that mass of qi.
"One strand of Xuanlei Gangqi, two strands of Shaoyin Gangqi, three strands of Jinyang Gangqi, and four strands of Yuanci Gangqi. It's quite a mixed bag. No wonder we are from the unorthodox sects, and we are not picky about anything."
Bai Cang chuckled self-deprecatingly and immediately activated the "Nine Steps of Nie Xu" technique again.
Anyway, he's not picky; everything he picks into the basket is vegetables.
There are exactly ten strands of Qi here, which is enough for the advancement of the Dao Register.
"boom!"
Just as he was thinking this, Bai Cang's figure suddenly became ethereal and once again embedded in the ethereal space.
Then, like a fish swimming, it "rides" a downward spatial turbulence and suddenly falls from the sky, breaking away from the Nine Heavens Gale Layer.
However, when he emerged from the void turbulence, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar territory.
This is the drawback of the "Step into Emptiness Secret Technique": no matter where you "set sail" from, your final destination is random.
This was true when ascending to the Ninth Heaven's Gale Layer, and it was also true when "returning" to the mortal world.
However, for Bai Cang, such a trivial matter was naturally nothing to worry about.
But as his sleeves billowed, two illusory portals overlapped and unfolded before him.
Then, taking a step, he passed through the "Gourd Heaven World" and, using the "Gourd Heaven Coordinates" as anchor, descended once again into the quiet room atop Jade Brocade Mountain.
"Next, it's time for the official promotion!"
Bai Cang sat upright on a futon. With a wave of his sleeve, ten thousand spirit pearls and a thousand pieces of spirit jade flew out in an endless stream, forming a simple altar.
There were also a hundred strands of malevolent energy and ten strands of protective energy, which were contained by the five-colored mysterious light and distributed around his body.
Finally, Bai Cang pondered for a moment, then took out another Corpse Dragon Yuan Pill and held it in his palm.
He currently possesses a total of three Yuan Dan: the Azure Dragon Yuan Dan, the Thousand Machine Yuan Dan, and the Corpse Dragon Yuan Dan.
The former, needless to say, is definitely used to cultivate the "Primordial Qi Great Capturing Hand" or to refine the like "External Avatar" or "Second Primordial Spirit".
The latter came from the withered corpse old man, but Bai Cang also had another use.
Based on this calculation, the Corpse Dragon Yuan Dan is the most useless and can be used as an "offering".
Keep the good stuff for yourself, and offer the "trash" to the ancestral master.
This is very unfilial, but it is unorthodox and can be said to conform to the etiquette of porridge making!
Thinking this, Bai Cang immediately murmured in his mind, "Rank promotion!"
With a soft shout, the imperial voice rang out.
Bai Cang, riding his Yin spirit, leaped out of the Yellow Court's sea of consciousness and immediately arrived at a mysterious void with ease.
Vast and boundless, without up or down, without distinction of the four directions.
The boundless celestial Dao talisman swept across the land, exuding an ancient aura as if it were the beginning of time.
It suddenly enveloped me, filling my mind and vision!
