Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Entering a meditative state, to some extent, enhances one's comprehension and enhances one's ability to perceive the universe.

But what truly determines his progress in cultivating corresponding magical techniques is his mental strength, his fundamental ability.

Just like cultivators at the same constant level, those who have entered the Dao and left the body will inevitably be less efficient in their cultivation than those who have entered the Dao and travel at night, not to mention those who travel at daytime, which is above nighttime travel.

Compared to True Persons above the Soul Refining Realm, they are naturally far inferior.

This is not a problem with the state of meditation itself, but rather with the strength of the cultivator's own spiritual core.

It's like two geniuses with an IQ of over 200: one has accumulated ten or even a hundred years of knowledge and experience, while the other is a newborn child who has just started learning. Naturally, there will be a huge difference in their learning progress.

Chen Yushu was not discouraged. He knew that he might still be behind those powerful beings who were at the same constant level, but he was much stronger than those cultivators at the constant or even great constant level.

at this point.

This can be seen from the practice of the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique.

After all, Zhou Qingke had personally mentioned that a cultivator in the Dao Realm once called himself the Five Thunder True Man and wanted to cultivate this Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique. However, after half a year, he had not heard of the other party actually mastering the technique or displaying the thunder magic.

He had already reached this level in less than two hours, which was quite impressive.

Certain in my heart.

Without hesitation, Chen Yushu continued his cultivation.

This time, he intends to smoothly and completely unleash the entire spell rune structure required for the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique.

Then, after he had fully restored his spiritual power, he began his cultivation.

With a thought, he quickly focused his mind and sketched out the structures of spell runes in his mind.

One, two, three...

Everything went smoothly, and he quickly cast the thirty-eight spell rune structures related to the transformation of metal into lightning that he had previously cast in stages, and then he connected them to the spell rune structures of the next stage.

The thirty-ninth, the fortieth, the forty-first...

Chen Yushu remained calm throughout.

Even during the execution, due to unfamiliarity, there may be some hesitation, and even slight fluctuations in mental state.

However, in a constant state, his mind remained stable, and he resolved each and every small difficulty in a timely and smooth manner.

He suddenly discovered a problem when he reached the forty-eighth spell rune structure.

The problem is not with the original structure of the spell runes, but with the connections between them. If the spell continues to be cast, the structure of the fifty-fourth spell rune will inevitably collapse and will not be able to be formed at all.

The problem arose because of the connection between the spell rune structures. Tracing back to the source, the problem should have occurred between the twenty-third spell rune structure and the twenty-fifth spell rune structure.

If you cast the spell using the first stage with the thirty-eight spell rune structures, it is correct. However, if you connect it with the subsequent spell rune structures, there will be conflicts, errors, omissions, or instability.

So he immediately stopped drawing the corresponding spell rune structure, thought for a moment, and quickly came up with a new idea, and began casting spells again.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Soon, the spell reassembled into a structure of forty-eight spell runes. Once they found no problems, they continued casting the spell.

However, when he reached the fifty-second spell rune structure, he sensed the problem again, so he dispelled the spell once more and made adjustments and optimizations.

Once, twice, three times...

This is a process that requires constant trial and error, and continuous experimentation.

It doesn't mean that successfully condensing the corresponding spell rune structure constitutes a successful casting.

Each spell rune structure requires a corresponding space and position.

Only when it is in its proper place can it be in harmony with heaven and earth, and resonate with the mysterious power of the rules in the void, thereby drawing upon those forces and unleashing the corresponding magical power.

It's like drawing on a blank sketchbook.

It's not enough to fill it completely to be considered successful.

A painting must have a corresponding spatial structure, blank space, and three-dimensional objects to be pleasing to the eye and able to evoke feelings.

Ten times, fifteen times, twenty times...

After all, it has a total of one hundred and eighty spell runes.

Chen Yushu made continuous adjustments.

Even the condensation of a single spell rune structure at the very end involves changes in all the preceding aspects.

Therefore, even though Chen Yushu had long been familiar with the structure of many spell runes, he still needed to constantly adjust and start over.

This is also the fundamental reason why the more spell runes there are, the more difficult it is to master the corresponding spell.

Fortunately.

Having entered a state of constant meditation, his thinking and comprehension reached an incomparably profound level.

Once a problem is identified, it can be resolved quickly without any hesitation, preventing one from becoming trapped and needing to constantly think and try to get through it.

"Finally, it's going to be done!"

in this way.

Just as Chen Yushu had practiced three more times, bringing the total number of times to thirty-three, he felt a surge of joy and delight.

The spell is about to succeed!

Immediately afterward, a thought struck him, and the last spell was successfully formed.

moment.

buzzing...

The void trembled slightly around his room.

Endless dark clouds gathered in an instant, growing thicker and thicker, as if a dark cloud was pressing down and about to overturn everything around.

"It's raining! Time to bring in the laundry!"

Also at this moment.

Some of the neighbors saw what was happening and immediately shouted.

Then they all ran quickly into the yard, trying to bring in all the clothes and blankets they had hung out to dry before the rain started.

Chen Yushu naturally heard such an exclamation. With a thought, he quickly made a hand seal and dispelled the spell.

Only then did he realize that he was still in Qinghe County, surrounded by neighbors, and was just an ordinary person.

If the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique were truly unleashed, who knows how much commotion it would cause.

This is, after all, lightning magic, and its power is extremely terrifying.

If someone is injured... even if no one is injured, but the surrounding houses are damaged or destroyed, that is still a sin.

He certainly couldn't let such a thing happen.

Thus, the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique that had just been formed was extinguished by him.

At the same time, the thick, gathering dark clouds quickly dispersed.

The sun shone down from the sky once again.

If it weren't for the commotion earlier, so great, and the oppressive feeling of the dark clouds overhead, so terrifying, almost everyone would have thought that everything just now was just an illusion.

This enormous change also attracted attention in the west, in the direction where the Zhenyin Division is located.

"That noise just now."

what's going on? "

The Zhenyin Division manages the ghosts and spirits of the area, as well as all strange occurrences.

We should naturally be wary of and understand these changes.

At this moment, Zhou Qing had not left yet. Upon seeing this scene, he almost instinctively thought of Chen Yushu.

After all, if he remembered correctly, Chen Yushu's residence should be in that direction.

In addition, just yesterday, the other party had exchanged a Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique from their Zhenyin Division.

"Could this commotion be the senior psychic practicing that lightning technique?"

Seeing this, someone nearby couldn't help but speak up.

"will not!"

Almost instinctively, Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "Although Fellow Daoist Spirit Communicator is powerful, cultivating lightning techniques is not so simple."

It's impossible for him to master this thunder technique in just one day.

Let alone a day, even ten days, a month, or half a year would be almost impossible. Thunder magic is not something that is easy to master.

There must be another reason there.

Perhaps it really is just weather change.

Sudden changes in weather are perfectly normal.

As a cultivator who had practiced for decades, he had seen all sorts of strange phenomena.

He'd seen it all talk and no action, not just the sun blazing down on one side while a torrential downpour raged on the other.

There are even instances where thunder and lightning sweep the ground, yet the grass and trees remain completely unharmed.

He simply assigned a junior cultivator to investigate, and didn't pay much attention to it.

At this time, the rampant spread of the evil cult in Qinghe County was almost nipped in the bud by their swift and decisive action.

Crisis resolved.

However, within Zhou County, the conflict remained fierce.

Although the gathering of cultivators from various regions has given them a significant advantage and the crisis in the area has been completely quelled, it is only a matter of time.

However, as a centurion of the Zhenyin Division, he naturally needs to be on guard and, when necessary, must be dispatched to provide support.

……

"fine.

Fortunately, I reacted in time.

Otherwise, if the spell were actually cast, who knows what kind of commotion it would cause.

Chen Yushu sighed, a hint of relief appearing on his face.

Even so, this caused him a slight tremor in his mind, since with his current level of control over this spell, he was still unable to dispel it at will.

However, everything is still acceptable.

He only rested for about half an hour before recovering from the mental damage caused by the shock.

"Next."

It's time to go to the underworld and truly test the power of this spell.

That's perfect.

In the underworld, there is still a vengeful spirit that I must subdue!

A glint of light suddenly appeared in Chen Yushu's eyes.

Flying Blood Zombie!
Even though the evil-faced ghost, the red-haired corpse king, and even the pig demon elephant could not reveal any expression on their ugly and ferocious faces, the hesitation in their tone and the subtle movements when they mentioned the flying blood zombies proved that they were extremely wary of this existence, and even somewhat afraid of it.

afraid?
Even ghosts feel fear?
Why?

Naturally, it's because of their strength.

Only absolute strength could make the ferocious Evil-Faced Ghost and the lightning-fast, incredibly skilled Red-Haired Corpse King so wary.

As for the pig demon elephant.

Although it wasn't very obvious.

But he could still sense a slight unnaturalness in the other person's nose when they mentioned the Flying Blood Zombie.

Clearly, it too had suffered losses at the hands of the other party.

This demonstrates the terror and power of that existence.

After all, he had witnessed the ferocity of the pig-elephant firsthand.

When it is at its peak, even a ghost spirit at the early stage of the Demon level might not be its match.

That immense strength, capable of uprooting giant trees, and that unparalleled defense, able to withstand the ferocious attacks of countless black and white ghosts, were all so wary of that flying blood zombie…

The key is.

From them, Chen Yushu learned that the flying blood zombie was not a demon-level being.

"It's not a malevolent spirit."

Yet it possesses strength far surpassing that of many evil spirits.

In the past, I would have really needed to think things through and make a detailed plan.

Now...

A hint of confidence crept onto Chen Yushu's face.

Although he had experience fighting against evil spirits several times before, a few days ago he even killed several evil spirits single-handedly.

They demonstrated their strength to the fullest.

But all of that was done with the help of the altar.

Moreover, it was because of the obstruction of Zhou Qing, the wine gourd, and others that he was able to open the jar with ease.

But this time, things are different.

Because what he was facing was the Flying Blood Zombie.

Possessing the ability to fly, and able to escape at will, the Flying Blood Zombie is greatly feared by the Evil-Faced Ghost and the Red-Haired Corpse King.

The other party would certainly not allow him time to calmly open the altar.

Therefore, he had no choice but to engage in a head-on battle with his opponent.

Previously, although he was confident, he still felt somewhat uncertain.

After all, being in the underworld presents him with some inconveniences.

In a state of spiritual consciousness, one is not as at ease as one's physical body.

But now, things are completely different.

Because of him, his understanding of reading improved, which in turn led to a genuine improvement in his meditative state.

Admittedly, simply improving his meditative state wouldn't significantly enhance his overall strength.

But when he entered a meditative state, the changes he underwent were indeed enormous.

Even when the same methods are employed, the results will inevitably differ.

Not to mention.

Now I have mastered a new technique: thunder magic.

Chen Yushu glanced at the attribute panel.

Perhaps it's because the spell wasn't actually cast.

Therefore, the attribute panel does not display the message that the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique has been mastered.

Thinking of this, Chen Yushu could no longer restrain himself.

He quickly sat cross-legged.

Then he used the technique of communicating with the underworld.

With a thought, he felt his mind connect to a certain place in the dark.

In a flash, he stepped inside.

As soon as I opened my eyes.

really.

He had already appeared in the underworld.

The speed was at least twice as fast as before.

My gaze fell upon the attribute panel.

Netherworld Communication Technique +8
In the darkness, countless experiences and insights into the art of communicating with the underworld flowed through his mind.

He immediately understood.

He has mastered the art of communicating with the underworld.
