Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 273 Great Advancement in Strength, Visit from the Underworld Bureau
The energy contained within the blooming flower seems inexhaustible, and crucially, it is extremely easy to refine. Once absorbed, it directly transforms into the power of the primordial Dao, which is why his cultivation level has improved so rapidly.

The increase in Dao Yuan power also led to a rapid improvement in his cultivation level.

Huangshan Contemplation Method +8
Huangshan Contemplation Method +11
Huangshan Contemplation Method +12
……

This efficiency.

It was even much faster than when he had raised his Dao Entry Realm to a constant level.

So much so that he felt that it wouldn't be long before his Huangshan meditation technique would advance to a higher level again.

Aside from his cultivation in Yin realm, Chen Yushu's martial arts improved even more rapidly.

Within the blooming flower lies an extremely pure life force. This force can be absorbed by him without any hindrance, transforming into Dao Yuan cultivation and enhancing his strength.

It can be directly absorbed by his physical body, continuously strengthening his skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs, truly increasing his foundation and potential.

The efficiency of converting it into internal force is also extremely high.

Soon, he felt his internal energy expanding, as if it had reached its limit, causing his dantian to swell.

He knew that this was a sign that his inner strength had reached its peak and he was about to break through.

Fortunately, he had already obtained the complete cultivation method of the Medicine King's Heart Sutra beforehand, so at least before reaching the Yuan Gang Realm, he didn't need to worry about the subsequent cultivation issues.

So he quickly controlled his internal energy and rushed towards one of the checkpoints.

boom!
As if unstoppable, his internal energy cultivation was rapidly improving.

Early stage of internal energy cultivation, middle stage of internal energy cultivation, and then late stage of internal energy cultivation...

Only then did Chen Yushu feel the surging and overwhelming power within his body begin to slow down.

This rapid growth in power is no longer as swift as it was before.

Of course, a change in speed does not mean the energy is dissipated. It simply means that the energy becomes continuous and prolonged.

Furthermore, there is also a great deal of energy that, while surging through his body, is hidden within the various meridians and acupoints, waiting for the right moment to be released to help him further enhance his strength.

in this way.

The next day at dawn.

Chen Yushu had just managed to fully absorb the power contained within the blooming flower.

Then, a brief sensation.

I was also a little shocked.

"His strength has truly improved considerably."

In terms of martial arts, not only is his physical body stronger, but his skin, flesh, bones, and even his internal organs are several levels stronger than before.

In terms of internal energy, it has become even more profound and powerful, directly reaching the late stage of internal energy, about to reach the peak of perfection.

This is equivalent to saving an ordinary martial artist at least three to five years of arduous training.

Chen Yushu couldn't help but clench his fist, and a muffled sound rang out, like a thunderclap, clearly revealing the terrifying power contained within.

This was without him using his internal energy; it was purely physical strength.

If internal energy bursts forth.

Not only will the air explode, but wisps of sharp air will also burst out, as if they can cut through the air, making a hissing sound.

"What a martial artist at the Inner Strength Realm possesses is inner strength."

Internal energy transforms into silk threads, which can then be released from within the body.

After the Inner Strength Realm comes the Yuan Gang Realm.

After being compressed to the extreme, internal energy can be transformed into Yuan Gang.

The power of Yuan Gang can manifest in three dimensions, transforming into Gang Wind and Gang Blades to attack enemies with unparalleled power.

The legendary "Splitting Palm" technique, along with various sword and saber energies, are ultimately manifestations of internal energy (罡气), a characteristic only achievable by martial artists at the Yuan Gang realm.

Chen Yushu knew this very well.

In terms of martial arts skills, he is actually not very strong.

However, if combined with his numerous perfect-level martial arts skills and his extremely profound and powerful essence that is almost overflowing, the situation becomes completely different.

Judging solely from his martial arts skills, he felt that he was no weaker than an ordinary Yuan Gang Realm martial artist.

Not to mention.

His true strength is demonstrated through his cultivation in the realm of Yin and Yang.

Thinking of this, he quickly looked at the attribute panel.

Name: Chen Yushu
Cultivation Level: Entering the Dao and Astral Projection (87/100)

……

Upon seeing this, a glint of light flashed in Chen Yushu's eyes.

I have 87% experience in the path.

In other words, this time, taking the Life-Giving Flower directly increased his cultivation level by more than sixty points.

You should know that if he followed the proper steps, at his cultivation speed, it would take him at least five to six months to cultivate those sixty-plus points.

It can be said that this time, he was saved half a year of arduous training.

"Originally, I had all sorts of magical techniques, but I always felt that my Dao energy was insufficient. As a result, I had to calculate carefully before casting spells, for fear that I would not be able to cast them if my Dao energy was insufficient."

Now, the power of Dao Yuan has reached several times that of before.

Unless I continuously cast spells like the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, which consumes a large amount of Dao Yuan power, I should be able to sustain myself for a major battle.

Chen Yushu muttered to himself, feeling genuinely excited.

It's not just because one's cultivation level has improved, resulting in abundant Dao Yuan.

Furthermore, with his cultivation experience reaching 87%, it means that he is not far from the first stage of entering the Dao, the perfected Out-of-Body stage.

"The three realms of entering the Tao are: leaving the body, wandering at night, and wandering during the day."

Although I can now go out at night.

However, he hadn't truly reached the realm of night travel, and there was still a certain difference between him and cultivators of that level.

Chen Yushu knew this very well.

He was able to travel at night because he actually possessed the basic ability to travel at night, which was to let his soul leave the body.

When the spirit leaves the body, the soul becomes stable and will not be easily corroded or scattered by the external environment.

Thus, it possesses the ability to travel at night.

However, the Dao Yuan within his body is still insufficient. Without enough Dao Yuan to cleanse him, his soul is naturally inferior to that of a true Night Wanderer.

To the average person, the difference may not seem significant, but in the presence of a true powerhouse, the gap becomes quite apparent.

"However, it will be soon."

Thirteen points of experience.

Based on past experience in spiritual practice, it takes at most a month to accumulate enough for perfection.

It won't even take a month.

Thinking of this, Chen Yushu couldn't help but look at the attribute panel again.

To be precise, it's on the attribute panel, above the Huangshan visualization method.

Practice: Huangshan Visualization Method - Minor Success (345/400)

……

My current understanding of the Huangshan meditation method is still at a minor stage.

However, his cultivation experience has already increased to over three hundred, and he is not far from achieving mastery.

As is well known, whether one is a martial artist or a cultivator practicing Yin-Yang cultivation, the higher the level of their cultivation technique, the higher their cultivation efficiency will be.

Chen Yushu's cultivation speed was already quite fast, even as he had achieved some success in the Huangshan visualization method.

After all, his meditative state is constant.

Within the same realm, it is almost the highest.

This naturally allowed his cultivation speed to reach its peak.

"But what if I cultivate the Huangshan visualization method to its highest level?"

That would inevitably make my already fast cultivation speed even faster.

Chen Yushu muttered to himself, knowing that there were only three factors that affected a cultivator's cultivation efficiency: the environment, the level of the cultivation technique, and the meditative state.

Assuming external factors remain constant, naturally, the higher the cultivation level, the higher the cultivation efficiency. And a difference of a few dozen experience points isn't significant.

"As expected of Sheng Hua."

This wave has been incredibly fruitful.

This has greatly improved my strength and level of cultivation.

Chen Yushu was overjoyed.

However, he did not get up immediately, but continued to circulate his cultivation technique to stabilize his realm.

Only when the sunlight shone through the window did Chen Yushu slightly open his eyes and come to the front yard.

The servants in the courtyard were used to his frequent martial arts practice and never dared to disturb him.

After breakfast, Chen Yushu did not cultivate, even though the sun was shining brightly.

It’s too late.

After a sudden and significant increase in strength, what is needed is not relentless advancement, but rather a period of reflection and growth.

Spiritual practice requires a gradual approach.

Although the energy within the Blooming Flower can be almost completely transformed, there is no need to worry about instability in one's realm.

But this is, after all, an external force. Now that it has been suddenly refined, this surge in power will naturally require a certain amount of time to become familiar with and master.

Therefore, Chen Yushu took out his long sword and began practicing martial arts.

First came the Eighteen Consecutive Slashes, then the Gale Blade Technique, the Light and Heavy Blade Techniques, and the several martial arts skills he had acquired after killing enemies. Although it didn't take too much time, he quickly became familiar with them all.

This continued for several hours.

Chen Yushu began practicing spells and incantations.

The Yin-Subduing Technique, the Seven Star Steps, the Yin-Pointing Sword, the Divine Descent Technique, the Blessing Ceremony, and even the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique...

However, apart from spells with relatively small impacts such as the Hidden Yin Technique and the Seven Star Step, he would quickly dissipate all other spells after casting them.

This method of practice, while not as smooth as performing the move, can still provide the same training effect.

"The only downside is that experience points won't increase."

Chen Yushu sighed inwardly, but for the moment he had no solution.

What he was doing at this moment was to adapt to his own Dao Yuan power so that he wouldn't feel uncomfortable after the Dao Yuan was enhanced.

This discomfort may not be noticeable in normal times, but it can have a significant impact during battle.

"It seems it's time to find a suitable place for cultivation."

Although this house is convenient to live in.

However, this makes them unsuitable for cultivating magic.

Chen Yushu then realized what was happening.

Why is it that both the Yan family and the Mo family live in relatively remote places?

Although their family did not possess a powerful magic technique like the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, the occasional noise and secrets of their practice could easily astonish the surrounding people. Even their methods of raising ghosts and controlling zombies were incomprehensible to outsiders.

Naturally, a place to live needs to be relatively secluded.

That's what I was thinking.

He then heard a knock on the door.

A doorman will naturally greet you.

Soon, the gatekeeper came in, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master, there are people outside claiming to be from the Zhenyin Division who have come to pay a visit!"

As he spoke, the gatekeeper also looked at his master with a respectful gaze.

The Zhenyin Division is no ordinary place.

In their eyes, that place is a direct route to the gods and spirits, a place where demons and monsters can be subdued. No matter which one it is, they all have great abilities and skills.

Especially this visitor, whose status was clearly not low, actually came to visit his master... which surprised and impressed him.

Sir, aren't you a genius martial artist?

Why would someone from the Underworld Bureau come to visit?

Could it be that my master possesses some extraordinary ability?
Of course, even though he was curious, he didn't dare to ask too many questions. He simply told him what had happened outside the door.

"Invite them in!"

Chen Yushu nodded and casually gave the order.

With his current cultivation level, he naturally heard the conversation outside the door long ago and knew that it was Chen He, the commander of the Zhenyin Division, who had come with two members of the Zhenyin Division.

As for Zhou Qing...

He was from Zhenyin Town in Tianling County. In terms of status, position, and strength, he was actually a bit stronger than Chen He. In terms of position, he was a deputy centurion.

With the surrounding affairs settled, he naturally returned to Tianling County.

Before leaving, he made a point of letting everyone know via the sensor.

Soon, Chen He walked in with two of his men.

"Chen He, Commander of the Zhenyin Division, greets Fellow Daoist Tongling."

"Xu Zhen and Zhang He greet you, senior."

As soon as he entered, Chen He showed great respect, cupping his hands in greeting.

The two Zhenyin Division members behind him also bowed and spoke.

"I have met Fellow Daoist Chen."

May I ask what brings you here today?

Chen Yushu returned the greeting and then asked.

"Actually, I was supposed to come over a few days ago."

Firstly, I want to thank you for your help last time, which saved Qinghe County from crisis.

Secondly, as the head of the Zhenyin Temple in Qinghe County, I heard that a new spiritualist had emerged in Qinghe County, a great spiritualist who had entered the world of the underworld. It was only right and proper for me to pay him a visit.

"But I was injured before and rested for a few days. I felt a little better today, so I rushed over."

Chen He said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Chen is too kind."

Chen Yushu also spoke with a smile.

He then invited the group to sit down.

Fortunately, there was a pavilion in the courtyard, which provided a place for a few people to sit.

The maid, Xiaoyun, was naturally very clever and quickly brought hot tea, carefully pouring it for everyone.

"These three things..."

After taking a sip of hot tea, Chen He finally spoke, saying, "There is something I would like to ask you for your help with."

"Ok?"

Chen Yushu was about to pick up his tea and take a sip when he heard this. He frowned, paused, and said, "With your abilities and the manpower of the Zhenyin Division, do you still need my help?"

"If it were any other matter, our Zhenyin Division would be duty-bound to handle it."

This time, however, is definitely different. Without your help, fellow Daoist, I really have no confidence.

Chen He's expression remained unchanged as he smiled and said...

"That's all."

Chen Yushu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I won't ask you what it is."

"I've been having some issues with my spiritual practice lately, so it's been inconvenient for me to go out."

Chen Yushu knew without even listening that this was bound to be a troublesome and very difficult matter.

He certainly wouldn't easily take on the responsibility.

It's best not to listen to such things.

Because once you hear that, you know you might not be able to get rid of it.

It's better to have peace and quiet, which saves a lot of trouble.
