Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Supernatural powers are simply supernatural powers.

Innate supernatural power is simply innate supernatural power.

There is a difference between the two.

Supernatural powers are techniques developed and summarized by top-tier cultivators who have reached a certain level of understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.

The strength of a power is related to the creator's understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.

Innate supernatural abilities, on the other hand, are flashes of inspiration, bestowed by heaven and earth, and are often more perfect and complete.

Of course, this does not mean that supernatural methods are inferior to innate supernatural abilities; in fact, the two have their own characteristics.

Innate supernatural abilities are awakened by cultivators themselves, so they are not universal and cannot be controlled by individuals.

Like the Flying Blood Zombie, who was unaware beforehand that he would acquire the innate supernatural power of Blood Escape.

Even its awakened innate supernatural power is considered one of the more powerful ones.

Many innate abilities are useless in battle, mostly serving a supportive purpose, and may even weaken one's own strength.

For example, he knew that someone had acquired a special talent called 'weak eyesight'.

Once activated, the eyes will lose their ability to see clearly. Although it can amplify the perception of the ears to some extent, it is almost useless in battle.

Supernatural powers, being methods that can be learned and mastered, are easier to control and allow for self-selection in learning.

"But for me, it's different."

I can learn innate supernatural powers!

Previously, he would have only had this idea in his mind and intended to give it a try.

After all, there was no precedent for this.

However, since it was his spirit that performed the innate divine power, he could naturally observe and feel this method continuously, and 'constantly watch' the changes in the surrounding energy and the manifestation of laws during the execution of this method.

This time, he saw the amount of law power involved in this innate divine ability.

One hundred and seventy-two!
This number is not small, because the power of rules is an infinite simplification of the spell rune structure, which is equivalent to one hundred and seventy-two spell rune structures.

The first thing he needs to do is to reverse the process.

He reversed the power of these 172 spell rules and deduced them into the corresponding spell rune structures he had mastered.

"but.

After comparison, of these 172 power rules, I only have 79 spell rune structures that I am familiar with and that correspond to them.

There are also ninety-three magical rules of power, which are completely unfamiliar to me and cannot be reversed into magical rune structures..."

Chen Yushu compared the information with the knowledge in his memory, and his brows quickly furrowed.

Because of his previous experience, even if he couldn't fully master the corresponding rule power through reverse comparison and deduction, he could still cast it using the spell rune structure.

He could directly transform the power of those seventy-nine rules into the spell rune structure he had already mastered, thus giving him the possibility to cast them.

"Unfortunately, there are still ninety-three rules of power that I have no way to deal with."

Chen Yushu had a slight headache.

If you were to try to understand and master each one individually, it would take far too much time.

After all, the power of rules is not so easy to comprehend.

Although his meditative state was high enough and his mental strength was not weak, it would still take him two or three days to fully comprehend the power of a rule.

In other words, if he follows this method, it will take him at least two hundred days, more than half a year, to learn the Blood Escape Technique.

Is there an easier way?

As Chen Yushu muttered to himself, a plan quickly came to mind.

That means casting a wide net and learning as many spells as possible.

The more spells he learns, the more spell rune structures he will be able to master.

Naturally, there will be spell rune structures that are similar to and compatible with those rules of power.

If he could master the complete structure of the corresponding spell runes, he would naturally be able to use this to reverse-engineer and cast the Blood Shield spell.

"This is indeed a feasible method."

With each additional spell rune structure I master, I can significantly increase my chances of casting the Blood Escape Technique.

Perhaps then, in a relatively short period of time, I could completely master this life-saving Blood Escape technique.

Chen Yushu muttered to himself, already having a plan in mind.

of course.

In addition, he will not give up on cultivating and mastering those rules of power.

Only by using a two-pronged approach can he continuously advance his cultivation progress.

Therefore, he needs to observe the Flying Blood Zombie using the Blood Escape Technique at least ten times a day to deepen his understanding and comprehension of the power of those rules, so that he can shorten his cultivation time more quickly.

Of course, ten times is not his limit, but the limit of the Flying Blood Zombie.

After all, while innate supernatural abilities are incredibly powerful, the corresponding energy consumption is definitely not small.

With the strength of the Flying Blood Zombie, it would be exhausted after two or three consecutive uses. Including the recovery time, it could only be used a dozen or so times a day at most.

Of course, the stronger you are, the more times you can use it, and the more powerful it will be.

Chen Yushu then glanced at the Flying Blood Zombie and asked, "Are you involved in the Ghost King competition?"

"Yes Master!"

Flying Blood Zombie nodded in response.

"I can't help you with anything else."

These faith crystals were an unexpected acquisition for me.

And this Black Ghost King's Demon-level Soul Bead should also be helpful to your strength. Try absorbing it and see. If you can comprehend one or two of the Black Ghost King's techniques, then it will be a worthwhile investment.

Furthermore, I will have the King of Yelang teach you several ultimate techniques. Whether you can defeat the Ghost King depends on yourself.

If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it.

Although the Flying Blood Zombies are his contracted spirits, and he can take them at will without paying any price, he will naturally provide them with some assistance if possible, so that their strength can be improved as soon as possible.

Just like Zhu Jiuzhi and Zhuge Xun, he would naturally push them to become gods and spirits.

Although it wasn't intentional, everything happened naturally, but when opportunities presented themselves, he would seize them and help them grow and become stronger.

After all, these are all complementary.

He helps the other party, and once the other party's strength increases, they will naturally be able to help him in return.

This time is no different.

If the Flying Blood Zombie could become a Ghost King, he could take any resources from the surrounding area.

Although this is indeed the case today.

But the other party can summon other ghosts and spirits to offer treasures...

Just like the Black Ghost King before, who also caused the Flying Blood Zombie to offer up the Life Flower from the Life and Death Flower.

No one knows what other good things the other ghosts in this area might be hiding.

Therefore, if the Flying Blood Zombie truly wanted to compete for the Ghost King title, he would naturally support it.

"Thank you, Master!"

Upon hearing this, the Flying Blood Zombie's face immediately showed a hint of excitement, and he respectfully reached out to accept it.

It should be noted that faith crystals are formed from the power of faith. For ghosts and spirits, they are definitely high-level cultivation materials, no less effective than high-grade spirit stones for cultivators. They can be completely absorbed by them without any side effects.

As for the Black Ghost King's Demon-level Soul Bead, it is a genuine late-stage Demon-level Ghost Bead. It not only condenses most of the Yin energy in its body, but may also contain all the ghost skills it has learned in its life, including Ghost King skills.

If it could master this, it would immediately enhance its attack methods significantly. After all, it was only at the peak level of the Evil Spirit realm before, and had only recently broken through to the early stage of the Demonic Spirit realm. Naturally, its methods were still at the peak level of the Evil Spirit realm, and it hadn't had time to adapt.

Naturally, when engaged in battle, their means of dealing with the enemy are somewhat limited.

Fortunately, its speed advantage is enormous, which is why it has been able to reach the top four in the battle for the Ghost King.

……

Early the next morning.

Chen Yushu bid farewell to his parents and headed straight for the dock.

At the entrance of the river keeper's temple at the dock, Xiao Hong reluctantly bid farewell to Zuo Zongheng.

Within the temple grounds, as a deity or spirit, it can manifest even during the day.

This is also a special ability of the gods and spirits.

"Brother Chen, I'm entrusting Xiao Hong to your care."

Zuo Zongheng cupped his hands in greeting to Chen Yushu and said.

"Do not worry!

I'll come back to see you again next time!

Chen Yushu returned the greeting.

Just then, the merchant ship set sail. Chen Yushu waved his hand, put away Xiao Hong, and boarded the ship.

Although with his current strength, he could easily use the Flying Blood Zombie's ability to 'fly' back.

He could even use his spirit to travel at night and carry his physical body back to Qinghe County.

But such methods would be too bizarre and terrifying if seen by others, and he prefers to be down-to-earth.

Not to mention, there is still that Azure Dragon in Longjiang. If the other party keeps waiting for him and takes this opportunity to attack him, he will have some difficulty casting spells and thus suffer a great loss.

It would be more convenient to just take a boat.

It's just a waste of a little more time.

Bon Voyage.

As boatmen who frequently travel by boat, they are generally able to handle any issues that arise on the river themselves.

Even if they did encounter a water ghost and died, the merchant ship had prepared corresponding countermeasures.

Unless they are of the evil level or higher, everyone should give them a wide berth.

Not to mention, Chen Yushu was also on board this boat.

Although his appearance is not limited, Zhu Jiuzhi and Zhuge Xun who accompany him are both genuine evil spirits.

The water ghosts and the dead sensed it from afar and dared not approach it even slightly, let alone cause trouble or harm anyone.

It was two hours later when we returned to our lodgings in Qinghe County.

As soon as Chen Yushu arrived home, there was a knock on the door.

Clearly, someone was keeping an eye on him and notified them as soon as they saw him return.

The visitor was Chen He, the commander of the Zhenyin Division of Qinghe County.

Accompanying them were two members of the Zhenyin Division, Xu Zhen and Zhang He.

"Chen He greets the psychic... senior!"

Upon seeing Chen Yushu, Chen He first bowed, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "I did not expect you to be a senior in the Night Wandering Realm. I was very rude before, and I hope you will forgive me."

You're too kind.

I only recently broke through to the next level myself.

Furthermore, we should address each other as "fellow Daoist." Using the term "senior" would make people uncomfortable and create unnecessary distance.

Chen Yushu waved his hand and said.

"Yes Yes Yes.

Fellow psychic.

The reason for this visit is still related to the incident of falling into the Dragon Abyss last time.

That defeat was indeed due to insufficient preparation beforehand, which led to Fellow Daoist Qian Wang and Fellow Daoist Hong Xi, the Night Wanderer…”

At this point, he couldn't help but shake his head.

Then he continued, "Furthermore, this whole affair was caused by the Earth God Xu Qing and his temple priest Feng Changxi. I reported the matter truthfully. Although the Azure Dragon did not cause the flood, Xu Qing and Feng Changxi cannot escape their guilt."

After that incident, they didn't dare return to Qinghe County. Our Zhenyin Division has already issued an arrest warrant for them, and naturally, someone who discovers their whereabouts will report it and have them apprehended.

Fellow Daoist, you have contributed significantly to this matter.

As agreed last time, you should have been awarded three major merits.

However, because your strength has already reached the Entering Dao Night Wandering Realm, I have applied for two more Great Merits for you, making a total of five Great Merits. Please accept them!

As he spoke, Chen He handed the tokens representing the five major achievements to Chen Yushu.

"Oh?"

Chen Yushu was taken aback, but was pleasantly surprised. He then cupped his hands and said, "In that case, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Chen."

He certainly wouldn't complain about having made too much of a contribution.

One great merit can be exchanged for top-tier spells comparable to the Blessing Method and the Divine Descent Technique.

Five major achievements, that's all.

As for why he spent three Great Merit Points to exchange for the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, it was naturally because the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique was of a higher grade and was also a thunder technique.

Now that he has five major achievements in hand, he can naturally indulge in some spending.

However, he has no shortage of methods now. Whether it is the Divine Descent Technique, the Blessing Method, or the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, they are sufficient for him at this time.

He needed to cultivate his innate supernatural ability to burrow underground, which required a large number of spells and corresponding spell rune structures.

Undoubtedly, the place with the largest collection of corresponding spells is the Zhenyin Division's treasure vault.

He can then indulge in a lavish spending spree.

Ordinary spells don't require much effort.

Some of the lower-priced ones can be redeemed with just one or two small efforts.

Five major merits were enough for him to exchange for many relatively ordinary and simple spells.

"This is what you deserve, fellow Daoist."

Chen He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Yushu was satisfied.

As for the spirit stones and treasures in the Dragon Abyss and the mysteriously disappeared dragon egg, he never mentioned them.

Regardless of the circumstances, after this incident, the dragon egg was no longer his concern, and he would not be tempted by whoever obtained it.

As a cultivator who has entered the Dao realm.

His meditation skills had long since reached the Great Meditation level, so he naturally possessed this level of mental cultivation as well.

Although he suspected that the dragon egg was very likely in Chen Yushu's hands.

But just from the fact that the other party was able to confront the Azure Dragon head-on and even defeat it, he knew very well that the dragon egg was no longer something he could get his hands on.

Chen Yushu was naturally unaware of the other party's many thoughts, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

He has already absorbed the dragon egg and transformed it into his own unique strength. Even if someone comes looking for him, he won't be able to produce it.

Ordinary cultivators would never risk making an enemy of him because of this. (End of Chapter)
