Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chen Yushu's momentum had already been established.

In terms of both strength and methods, they can be considered powerful among those in the same realm.

Even if a cultivator's strength and realm are higher than his, it's impossible for them to become enemies with him over a dragon egg whose identity is still unknown.

Not worth the candle.

Not to mention cultivators like Chen He who have entered the Dao and left the body realm.

Even though he was the head of the local Yin Division, a position with extremely high status, he still dared not provoke a real cultivator at the Night Wanderer Realm.

Not to mention this cultivator at the Night Wanderer Realm who is suspected of being able to fight a true dragon!
"Five major merits, that's quite a lot."

Did Fellow Daoist Chen bring a list of items?

Chen Yushu pondered for a moment, then asked.

"Does Fellow Daoist Tongling wish to make the exchange now?"
However, I left in such a hurry that I really didn't bring that thing with me... Zhang He, could you go back to the Underworld and retrieve the list for my fellow psychic!"

Chen He was taken aback at first, then spoke.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang He bowed and hurriedly ran towards the Zhenyin Division.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be so complicated."

Chen Yushu said a few polite words, and seeing that Zhang He had already left, he didn't say anything more. After inviting the group to sit down, he noticed that they hesitated slightly and asked, "Besides this matter, is there anything else, fellow Daoist?"

"Is such that.

In Qinghe County, several deities and spirits perished or went missing because of this incident. Not to mention the Earth God Xu Qing, the Night Wanderer Hong Xi also perished, as did the Door God Zheng Fang and the Prison God Tang Xiong.

These are all deities and spirits within Qinghe County, whose names are recorded and whose rankings are all within the top ten.

Now that there is a vacancy, it is natural to fill it.

Therefore, I would like to ask fellow psychics if they have any recommendations for someone?

"Ok?"

Chen Yushu was taken aback. He hadn't expected Liu Kong to be so accurate. Chen He had actually come to him to inquire about the matter of filling the vacancy of the deity and ghost spirit.

"What are the specific rules and regulations for this?"

Chen Yushu hesitated slightly before asking.

"Actually, the matter is very simple. Our Zhenyin Division will draft a list and then submit it. If nothing unexpected happens, the decision will be made based on this list."

Of course, every year there are countless ghosts who have connections but no suitable divine position waiting in line.

Therefore, it is also possible that ghosts from other places may descend from the sky and become ghosts in this area.

Gods like the Earth God and the Night Wanderer are highly sought-after, and there are definitely many gods and spirits above keeping an eye on them.

Therefore, if we make a decision and make a recommendation early, it is very likely that the gods and spirits from other places will take notice and use their own methods to seize it.

Originally, this matter didn't really concern me much, but I know that the psychic has two spirits under his command, one of whom is a general.

Previously, it was Zhou Qing, the deputy commander of the Yin Division of Tianling County, who personally made the decision. Of course, no one dared to object, so the process went relatively smoothly.

The other one, however, is just land in an outer village, which is indeed too low for a cultivator like Fellow Daoist Tongzhi.

Therefore, if you wish to arrange a position for me, we will naturally offer our full support.

Chen He patiently explained, his tone clearly showing his goodwill towards Chen Yushu.

"Oh?

Do you have any recommendations? Make sure it doesn't conflict with your existing recommendations.

Chen Yushu pondered for a moment, then spoke.

"The River God Liu Kong did come over to inquire about the position of Earth God."

In addition, many night wandering spirits also came to recommend themselves, including even two evil spirits.

Of course, although the evil spirits have the ability to compete for the position of deity, they need to work in the corresponding underworld department for two years before they can be allowed to obtain the qualification of deity. They are usually minor gods with weak positions and are only allowed to move freely within the territory of the Wu Kingdom, so that they will not be killed at will by those who catch ghosts and exorcise demons.

These two, although currently working in the Zhenyin Division, haven't served for a full two years, so their competitiveness isn't high.

Chen He spoke honestly.

"I see."

Chen Yushu nodded, knowing that there was indeed such a mechanism in the Zhenyin Division. Just like Zhuge Xun, although he had stayed in Qinghe County for more than a hundred years, it was actually because of this mechanism that he was able to become a deity.

Previously, its strength was lower, only at the level of an evil spirit. Therefore, it served the Zhenyin Division for more than ten years before it obtained the qualification to be conferred as a god and obtained the position of the local earth god. After years of diligent and arduous cultivation, it was finally able to cultivate to the level of a demon.

Having finally broken through to the level of the Demon, he was just about to come out and make some plans to take it a step further when he happened to be caught up in the great battle in the General's Temple. That's how he was subdued by Chen Yushu and became one of his contracted spirits.

It can be said that it is actually a typical example of those ghosts who have undergone ascetic training.

It was lucky that he was taken in by Chen Yushu.

Otherwise, in that one battle alone, he would have followed in the footsteps of other ghosts and perished in that fight.

"Since Liu Kong wants to compete for the position of the Earth God, then let him have it."

However, I intend to fight for the position of River God that he has vacated, for the sake of my subordinate Qiling.

Chen Yushu hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

Since Liu Kong had already come to him in advance and even brought faith crystals as a gift, he wouldn't go back on his word since he had already received the gift.

Although with his current strength and status, even if Zhuge Xun were forcibly placed in the position of landowner in Qinghe County, no one would dare to say anything. However, his virtue does not match his position, and Zhuge Xun's strength is still somewhat weak.

Simply possessing a divine position in a land designated for deification is not necessarily a good thing.

After all, the original Earth God Xu Qing might not be willing to have his position taken away.

The reason they haven't shown up for so long is probably because they're seeking some support and are plotting something.

It would be better to settle for second best and choose the position of Dragon Lake River God, which would be easier and more comfortable to manage a large river within the Qinghe County area.

"in this way.

"Just as the psychic fellow said."

Upon hearing this, Chen He naturally did not refuse and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Yushu's choice of Jiang Shen was exactly what he wanted.

After all, since Liu Kong was plotting something, he would naturally receive some benefits. He didn't want to be known as someone who took the benefits but didn't do anything. Although he didn't care, it wasn't a good reputation.

And so, the matter came to an end.

Once the two reached an agreement, it was practically a done deal.

Although they still need to wait for the approval of the Tianling County Town Yin Division, Zhou Qing, the deputy commander of Tianling County who has long valued Chen Yushu and has been trying to win him over, will certainly not ignore his needs.

As for Wang Mingyue, the head of the centurion, it was impossible for him to antagonize a cultivator at the Night Wanderer Realm just for the sake of a divine appointment in Qinghe County. Just then, a knock sounded at the door again; it was Zhang He, who had returned with the list of those who had been rewarded for their merits with the Zhenyin Division.

"Senior psychic, this is the list of merit points for redemption. Please take a look."

Zhang He first bowed to Chen He, and then respectfully addressed Chen Yushu.

"it is good."

Chen Yushu nodded and, without standing on ceremony, quickly began watching.

"Heavenly Origin Pill, Soul Nourishing Pill, Pure Yang Pill, Human Origin Great Pill... Top-grade magic weapon flying sword Wan Hong, top-grade magic weapon Star-Fixing Plate, complete set of top-grade magic weapons, Mother and Child Thirteen Needles... Precious medicine Dragon and Phoenix Grass, precious medicine Emperor Flower... Heavenly Star Palace inherited cultivation techniques 'Eight Methods of Heavenly Stars', 'Longevity Immortal Technique', 'Listening and Contemplating Technique'... 'Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique', 'Summoning Wind and Rain Technique', 'Rainstorm and Thunder Light', 'Phoenix Three Nods'..."

Many of the cultivation techniques, spells, magical artifacts, and elixirs were ones he had seen before.

For example, the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique is worth three Great Merits. He had already redeemed it before, and it was still displayed on the device. Obviously, if others obtain three Great Merits, they can also redeem it.

Furthermore, the art of summoning wind and rain is actually similar to the technique used by the Azure Dragon.

However, since the Azure Dragon's technique is based on the inheritance of memories, coupled with its own formidable strength, the power of its Wind and Rain Summoning Technique is greater and its range is wider than that of ordinary cultivators.

However, it must be said that this Wind and Rain Summoning Technique is actually one of the great techniques that is no weaker than the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique.

However, it may be easier to cultivate and less powerful than the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, so its exchange value is only two Great Merits.

Of course, Chen Yushu would not choose this spell.

Because it does almost nothing to improve his strength.

And the price is too high.

Chen Yushu's target this time was some low-level spells and a flying sword technique and a sword control technique.

The most powerful method for entering the Daoist Night Tour is actually the technique of sword control.

Just like Feng Changxi, whose mastery of flying swords was unparalleled, and the old man in black robes, whose sword formation technique made it feel a faint threat.

These are all effects of the sword control technique.

Moreover, the ability to control the sword with one's divine soul can further enhance his speed on top of what it already is.

Therefore, his first choice was the flying sword technique.

"Sky Sword Technique, Sunset Sword Technique, Earth-Shattering Sword Technique!"

Of the three sword techniques, Chen Yushu didn't hesitate at all and directly chose the Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique because it was the most expensive.

It requires three major efforts.

Undoubtedly, its power is also the strongest.

Then, he began to walk down, observing the spell zones.

Besides the flying sword technique, he naturally did not forget that he needed to learn and replicate the Flying Blood Zombie's innate divine ability, the Blood Shield Technique.

Therefore, he needs to master as many basic spells as possible and reverse-engineer the power of the rules.

"Divine Light Technique, Cleansing Technique, Rainfall Technique, Minor Cloud Rain Technique, Wind Blade Technique, Gale Blade Technique, Geng Metal Sword Technique, Withered Tree Rejuvenation Technique, Earth Collapse Technique, Dungeon Technique, Vines Entangling Technique, Childbirth Technique, Annual Ring Technique..."

Each spell is of a low grade, with some having only a few dozen spell rune structures and others only a dozen or so, but the sheer number of spells is astounding.

There are more than a hundred of them, scattered here and there.

The key point is that the prices are relatively cheap. Most of them only require one small skill to exchange for, and some relatively ordinary ones can even be exchanged for two spells with just one small skill.

As is widely known, ten small merits are equal to one great merit.

In other words, with five major merits, he could basically exchange them for fifty corresponding spells. After deducting three major merits to exchange for the Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique, he was left with only two major merits, which meant he could exchange them for twenty spells.

Although individual spells are indeed relatively weak, their purpose is not the spell itself.

If this allows me to successfully learn the Blood Escape Technique, then it will all be worthwhile.

However, with so many spells, he naturally needed to choose carefully.
Because there are actually many spells in it, and the corresponding spell rune structures are repeated.

For example, Rainfall and Lesser Cloud Rain. Rainfall contains seventeen spell rune structures, while Lesser Cloud Rain contains twenty. In fact, most of the spell rune structures overlap between the two.

Therefore, the sensible choice is to select only one spell to exchange for and cultivate.

Chen Yushu naturally chose the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique first.

In addition, there are Wind Blade Technique, Gale Blade Technique, Ground Pit Technique, Dungeon Technique, and also Growth Technique and Annual Ring Technique, all of which fall into this category.

It is worth mentioning that both the growth-inducing spell and the annual ring spell were essential spells mastered by plant spirit masters in ancient times. The growth-inducing spell can induce the growth of corresponding plants, thereby helping them grow.

For example, a spiritual plant that normally takes a year to mature can have its growth period greatly shortened with the help of a growth-inducing technique, allowing it to be harvested in eight months or even half a year.

The tree ring technique is even more powerful than the birth-inducing technique.

Calculated in terms of annual rings, a single spell can increase the annual time of a spiritual plant.

One tree ring is one year.

While a single spell might not necessarily increase the age of a spiritual plant by a year, since spiritual plants also need the energy of heaven and earth to grow, simply increasing the age of a plant without sufficient energy replenishment would be futile.

However, it must be said that this spell is truly wondrous.

This is also the reason why the ancient cultivation world was so prosperous.

"In this world today, although the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is relatively thin, these spells are not as effective as one might imagine."

But it can also play a huge role.

For example, if I find some spiritual plants in the wild that are not yet mature but are close to maturity, I can use this growth ring technique to fill in the growth rings, and naturally I can harvest them ahead of time..."

Chen Yushu valued the tree ring technique highly and naturally included it in his collection.

As for the fertility-inducing technique, after a brief consideration, he also included it.

This spell, in addition to stimulating growth, also has the effect of nurturing spiritual seeds. Although it is not as domineering and powerful as the annual ring spell, it is more effective for spiritual plants in their nascent stage.

Thus, they picked and chose.

Chen Yushu quickly selected twenty spells.

Then, he handed the list of spells to Chen He and said, "I've made my selection."

This astonishing sword technique and these twenty spells.

It took exactly five major efforts!

"Awe-inspiring swordsmanship and twenty spells?"

Chen He was taken aback upon hearing this.

He understood the Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique very well; it was indeed a powerful technique that could aid cultivators in their practice at the Night Wandering Realm.

Although this astonishing sword technique is difficult to master, no less so than the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, it is understandable that Chen Yushu would choose this sword control method.

Only twenty spells?
What do you need so many spells for, fellow psychic? (End of Chapter)
