Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 305 Brother Yu Ding, this method mainly depends on talent.

Prince Changqin's words enlightened Yu Ding, who realized that he had indeed been blind to his own shortcomings.

However, it's no wonder he forgot about the Witch Clan. After he woke up, the three Eastern religions and the Western religion were the four major religions in the world, and could be considered the top tier of existence in the prehistoric world, which made him forget the existence of the Witch Clan for a time.

Now that I think about it, even if the Western method of creating a golden body is powerful, even though the Buddha cultivated a sixteen-foot golden body, wasn't he once stung on the finger by a scorpion demon, thus breaking his golden body?

As for the three religions and the witch clan, they do indeed have a long history together.

Because his three teachers and the legendary twelve ancestral witches were all born from the god Pangu.

His three masters were formed from three parts of Pangu's primordial spirit and innate pure energy after Pangu's death, which can be considered a lineage. They received the essence of Pangu's creation of the world and the treasures of creation. The twelve ancestral witches were formed from most of Pangu's essence and blood and turbid energy after his death.

However, the relationship between those three masters and the twelve ancestral witches was subtle; in any case, they never had any contact with each other.

Prince Changqin is right. When it comes to the cultivation of the primordial spirit, there is indeed no method in the world that can compare to the orthodox Pangu primordial spirit, and this is the confidence of the disciples of the three religions.

As for physical cultivation... which religious lineage dares to claim it can rival Pangu?
Yu Ding had read ancient books and heard legends that the twelve ancestral witches could combine their strength to unleash the Twelve Capital Gods and Demons Formation, condensing the true form of Pangu, which had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.

The Wu and Yao races bear an inescapable responsibility for how the primordial land became the four continents we know today.

It was during the great war that the two races refused to submit to each other and clashed with the Zhou Tian Xing Dou and He Luo formations of the demon race, which caused damage to the earth. Later, a stubborn ancestor smashed the pillar of heaven, Buzhou Mountain, which caused the primordial earth to collapse.

This brief statement alone is enough to show how terrifying that great calamity must have been.

However, with the end of that great calamity, both races were severely weakened, and the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation became history.

Although the Heavenly Court now possesses the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation, it is incomplete and its power cannot compare to the original.

"Then... this humble Taoist will have to ask Brother Changqin for some guidance."

Yu Ding rose and solemnly bowed to Crown Prince Changqin. His three teachers and the Twelve Ancestral Witches had never spoken to each other before, but he never expected to have an encounter with the descendants of the Witches and gain a kindred spirit.

He didn't aspire to cultivate some earth-shattering Pangu-like body, nor did he indulge in any delusional fantasies about becoming a saint or defying the heavens. That was unrealistic!
While it's true that a transmigrator who doesn't aspire to sainthood isn't a good transmigrator, you should take a closer look at this in light of the actual situation.

Throughout the ages, countless earth-shattering figures have appeared in this primordial world. Among them, there are those with better origins, those with deeper blessings, those with greater destiny, and those who are more intelligent... You say that even these innate deities could not become saints, so what makes Yu Ding so special?
Based on what he's wearing... honestly, if he had come at the very beginning of the creation of the world, he might have had a chance, but now, it's too late!
The treasures of creation in the primordial world have long been looted by those bastards. If we're talking about who truly has the qualifications to become a saint, Yu Ding should at least rank outside the top ninety.

So, he doesn't dare to dream of becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal, but it's not unreasonable for him to dream of becoming a Golden Immortal, right?
Yu Ding wasn't very ambitious; he just wanted to attain the Great Luo Dao Fruit and didn't need to worry about anything else. He could just cling to his master and sect's coattails.

His ideal is to live a retired life in the primordial world, raising a few cats and dogs, cultivating some spiritual roots, training a few apprentices, and having a few close friends to get together with from time to time. He thinks that such a life would be easy and carefree.

Ahem, I digress. Let's get back to cultivation. He felt that the three lineages were now placing too much emphasis on the path of the primordial spirit, even though they were practicing the orthodox primordial spirit method of Pangu.

For example, in the upcoming Golden Immortal Realm, although everyone will also refine their physical body, their basic cultivation will still focus on cultivating the Three Flowers and Five Qi.

Only those with naturally strong physical bodies like Huanglong Laotie will not be affected. The others are basically fragile and will be at a disadvantage without magic weapons and supernatural powers.

Such flaws were fully demonstrated in the Investiture of the Gods.

Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal like Zhao Gongming relied too heavily on magic weapons. When his magic weapon was knocked away by the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin, he was still dumbfounded. His Daoist brother Guang Chengzi killed the Holy Mothers one by one with a single seal...

Below the level of a sage, it seems that only Daoist Duobao and Yang Jian survived the Heaven-Turning Seal. Yang Jian relied on the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, while Daoist Duobao truly endured it with his physical body.

Crown Prince Changqin looked at the jade cauldron and nodded slightly, saying with pleasure, "Changqin will certainly speak freely!"

Yu Ding nodded, sat down opposite Prince Changqin, his expression serious, and began to inquire about the body-refining methods of the Wu Clan.

However, he had already cultivated the first six stages of the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, and several of his disciples had also embarked on the path of becoming a Saint through physical cultivation, so he had quite a bit of experience on this path.

"Brother Yuding, do you know the origin of my Wu clan? In fact, apart from my twelve ancestors, the rest of the Wu clan do not have such powerful physical bodies."

Prince Changqin said, "The Wu tribe is centered around Mount Buzhou. Each ancestor led a major tribe of the Wu tribe and created cultivation methods suitable for the tribesmen."

He began by recounting the origins of the Wu tribe, which naturally included some secrets of the Wu tribe that were not to be told to outsiders.

Yu Ding listened quietly and nodded repeatedly. In fact, before his ancestor attained sainthood through immortality and began lecturing at Zixiao Palace, the cultivation system in the entire prehistoric world was quite chaotic.

Those innate saints and great supernatural beings cultivate themselves by following the laws of heaven and earth and nature, and then pass on their methods to their clansmen, including the witch clan.

According to Prince Changqin, the power structure of the Wu tribe at that time was very simple: ordinary Wu people, lesser Wu people, and greater Wu people and ancestral Wu people.

"With Brother Changqin's current level, where would you be considered among the former Witch Clan?" Yu Ding asked with some curiosity.

"Me? In the past, I would have been a great shaman at most."

Prince Changqin pondered: "The combat power of an ordinary shaman should be below that of an immortal, while a minor shaman is probably between a true immortal and a golden immortal."

"Is the Great Witch the same as the Great Luo Golden Immortal level...?" Yu Ding pondered. "As for the Twelve Ancestral Witches, their strength is mostly at the Quasi-Saint level, making them the strongest below the Saint level."

"So the Wu Clan once had twelve methods?" Yu Ding pondered. "Not exactly. In fact, the twelve ancestors jointly created an ancient scripture, but it was too difficult to cultivate."

Prince Changqin gently shook his head and said, "That's why our ancestors later divided that ancient scripture into twelve parts..."

"Ancient scriptures?" Upon hearing these two words, Yu Ding's eyes lit up, and he became somewhat flustered, asking expectantly, "Brother Changqin... do you know them?"

When I heard that the later part was more difficult and harder to fix, I paused for a moment, and it seemed... somewhat familiar.

Prince Changqin smiled meaningfully and said, "What do you think, Brother Yuding?"

Yu Ding's expression brightened, and he saw Prince Changqin flip his hand, and with a golden light, a golden animal hide appeared in his palm and was handed to Yu Ding.

Prince Changqin said, "The ancient scripture is here. Brother Yuding, feel free to take it and study it. But I must say in advance that the key to cultivating this ancient scripture lies mainly in talent."

"Talent?" Yu Ding was suddenly stunned.

Prince Changqin nodded slightly and said, "This ability cannot be cultivated, and how much one can comprehend depends entirely on Brother Yuding's comprehension."

"Comprehension?" Yu Ding's expression became even more peculiar.

These...aren't these all his words?
Seeing Yu Ding's expression, Prince Changqin comforted him, "Brother Yu Ding, don't worry. The disciples of the Primordial Sage are all of superior talent and comprehension. I'm sure it won't be a big problem for you."

"Hey! Let's take a look first, then we'll talk."

Yu Ding raised his hand and coughed lightly. He took the animal skin and unfolded it, revealing twelve ancient characters of different colors and shapes on the simple animal skin.

Next to the twelve symbols are densely packed human-shaped symbols. When the animal skin is opened, a primitive, ancient, and desolate aura rushes out, and the human-shaped symbols on it seem to transform into shamans who fight against heaven and earth.

“This is… witchcraft?” Yu Ding’s expression changed slightly when he saw these symbols.

It's not hard to understand. As a civilization that once shone brightly on the ancient land, how could it not have developed its own culture and writing system?
Prince Changqin asked in surprise, "Brother Yuding, you also understand my clan's script?"

"I know a little bit!" Yu Ding said. This time, he wasn't being modest; he genuinely only knew a little.

He then continued to look at the animal hide, his expression gradually becoming more and more solemn; the writing on it was indeed profound and extraordinary.

He couldn't understand the twelve ancient characters for the time being, so he started with the shamanic script to interpret and comprehend them.

This animal skin scroll is covered with dense shamanic script, which tells of the importance of the physical body on the path of cultivation, and explains the mysteries of the physical body and the universe. It is extensive and all-encompassing, and can be called a priceless treasure.

Unbeknownst to him, Yu Ding had become completely absorbed in it.

"Pfft!" After a long while, Yu Ding coughed up blood, staring at the roll of animal hide in shock and astonishment.

Crown Prince Changqin hurriedly asked, "Brother Yuding, how is it?!"

"I'm fine..." Yu Ding looked at the roll of animal hide with a strange expression.

There must be a reason for his loss of composure, and that reason is that he discovered the true meaning of the small characters in this ancient scripture during his comprehension... and that it overlaps with the body-refining method of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts by at least 90%.

It should be noted that before cultivating the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, he had studied the Eight-Nine Profound Technique for an unknown period of time, and he could recite its contents by heart, so he would never have made a mistake.

"How could the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts resemble the body-refining methods of the Witch Clan?"

Yu Ding's expression flickered uncertainly. The Eight-Nine Arcane Arts followed the path of physical immortality through battle, while the Chan Sect, as the orthodox lineage of Pangu, naturally also had a method for cultivating the primordial spirit.

It can be said that the profound skill perfectly integrates physical and spiritual cultivation, without any flaw of favoring one aspect over the other.

"Could it be..." Yu Ding's expression changed slightly. This was a profound technique created by his master by combining the strengths of two schools.

Prince Changqin reminded him, "Brother Yuding, you should stop for a moment. Your cultivation is all about fate. If there is no fate, do not force it, lest you harm yourself!"

"Fate... it's truly a wonderful thing!"

Yu Ding raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, a bright smile spreading across his face: "Brother Changqin, this skill is destined for me. Do you believe it or not?"

His Nine Revolutions Mystic Art was originally created by Jade Cauldron Immortal, based on the Eight-Nine Mystic Art, and drawing on the strengths of many others.

He never expected that there was such a connection between the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts and the witch clan's methods.

It seems he really did visit the Taoist temple to worship the Three Pure Ones this time... and found the right place!

P.S.: Sorry, I wanted to write another update last night, but my sleep schedule was messed up and I had a headache. I'll add it when I feel better.
