Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

"I have indeed heard of such a cultivators' exchange meeting."

Chen Yushu nodded slightly.

If Yan Xu and Mo Xuan hadn't come, he had planned to refine the elixir and sell it at the cultivator exchange meeting.

Of course, they also wanted to exchange some of their skills for magical training.

Although the plan hasn't changed much, the sale of the elixir will probably have to be postponed.

After all, he had sold out of all the elixirs he had.

"Will you be attending this time, senior?"

Yan Xu said repeatedly.

I'll probably go.

Chen Yushu nodded, making no attempt to hide anything.

"That's perfect, we can go together."

Mo Xuan, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up.

Chen Yushu thought about it and did not refuse.

……

"I was originally planning to spend more time these two days refining more elixirs."

Unexpectedly, they obtained these magical inheritances from the Mo and Yan families.

In this way, I can take the opportunity to cultivate them all to the minor completion stage and see if I can comprehend a few of the profound mysteries of the laws.

If I can successfully learn the Blood Escape Technique before entering that ancient cultivator's cave, my means of survival inside will undoubtedly increase significantly.

If there were no hope, it would be fine, but now that there are only thirty-six profound laws left to comprehend, he naturally has more expectations for finding alternative spell rune structures.

Then, with a thought, he took out all the spells that Mo Xuan and Yan Xu had sent him.

"Fleeting Shadow Technique, Vajra Body Protection Technique, Flaming Bird Technique, Earth Fire Technique..."

Chen Yushu examined them one by one.

Some spells are of relatively low rank, belonging to the category of minor spells, such as the Subduing Yin Technique, which is a low-level spell and is not even qualified to be included in the Zhenyin Division's treasure pavilion.

However, there are also some spells with much greater power, such as the Vajra Body Protection Spell, which is a protective spell with a total of seventy-eight spell runes. If it were to be exchanged in the Zhenyin Division, it would require two or three, or even three or five, minor merits.

There's also the Earth Fire Technique, a spell that draws fire from the earth. It takes about four or five minor merits to exchange for it.

It can be said that it is a masterpiece among magic spells.

It is also one of the foundational traditions of the Mo and Yan families.

At this point, he got off easy.

"Unfortunately, some of these spells overlap with those I already know, so the total number of spells is only twenty-nine."

However, twenty-nine spells is still quite a lot.

"As long as each spell has at least one spell rune structure that resonates with the profound rules of the Blood Escape Technique, I can advance the number of profound rules I've mastered to just seven short..."

Chen Yushu muttered to himself, and without hesitation, he quickly began to cultivate.

His constant level of meditative absorption, coupled with his incomparably powerful mental strength, has allowed him to cultivate spells at an incredibly advanced level.

Not to mention, countless spells actually have similarities, and the rules of each spell are mysterious and overlapping.

Some of them had already been optimized and simplified to the extreme by him, which immediately increased his cultivation speed once again by a large margin.

Therefore, at this moment, regardless of the type of spell, he only needed to cast it once to reach the beginner level.

After practicing it three to five more times, you will eventually master it.

In a very short time, he mastered his first spell and reached the minor level of mastery.

"two!
This spell allowed me to grasp two more of the profound rules contained within the Blood Escape Technique.

There are thirty-four left!

Soon, Chen Yushu's eyes lit up, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

Two isn't much, but as one progresses in magical cultivation, it becomes increasingly difficult to gather enough, so two is already quite a lot.

Next, there are twenty-eight more spells.

Perhaps this will allow him to fully grasp the profound rules and mysteries contained within the Blood Escape Technique.

"continue!"

Without hesitation, Chen Yushu began to continue practicing the second spell.

"A second spell, and another one."

Half an hour later, Chen Yushu was slightly invigorated, and then began to practice the third spell, and then the fourth.

It's a pity that none of the spell runes in the third and fourth spells contain the profound laws of the Blood Escape Technique.

Chen Yushu was not too disappointed by this.

Because he knew that no magic spell was ever learned in vain.

Although these two spells do not contain the profound rules of the Blood Escape Technique, they certainly represent other profound rules, only that he has not yet anchored himself to those profound rules and has not yet fully comprehended them.

In the future, it will naturally become his foundation, helping him to quickly grasp certain rules and mysteries at a certain moment, thereby enabling him to master and comprehend each rule and mystery more quickly.

Even more so, this method can be used to cultivate and replicate other innate supernatural abilities.

time flies.

Chen Yushu almost never stopped, constantly practicing one spell after another.

In as little as two or three incense sticks or as long as half an hour, he could cultivate a spell to the point of minor mastery.

Through the structure of spell runes at the minor level, he was able to compare and contrast them with the profound rules involved in the Blood Escape Technique.

If it matches, it means he has mastered another profound rule.

If there is no matching element, it naturally indicates that this spell does not have any corresponding rules or mysteries.

in this way.

The seventh, the eighth...

"Three, zero, one, zero, three, zero, zero...wait, this one actually has five..."

Chen Yushu practiced each spell one by one.

They were also compared one by one.

He had mastered the last spell to a minor degree.

Chen Yushu couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

A glint flashed in his eyes.

Three.

"Only three more profound rules of spells remain before I can truly replicate the Blood Escape Technique and begin practicing it."

Chen Yushu's face was full of joy.

In other words, these twenty-nine spells directly added thirty-three more profound rules to his repertoire.

This also significantly accelerated his progress in cultivating the Blood Escape Technique.

"It's only three rules that are missing, and then it will be much simpler."

Even without the corresponding spell rune structure, I can completely fill this gap by comprehending the mysteries of these three rules.

According to a mysterious rule, I need two days to calculate it.

The three rules are profound, and I only need about six days to fully comprehend and master them…

Chen Yushu muttered to himself, and then truly breathed a sigh of relief.

Six days is hardly a long time.

Especially compared to the previous estimate of more than a year, it is already considered extremely short.

However, Chen Yushu did not immediately devote himself to practicing the corresponding spells.

By this time, the sky was already beginning to lighten. Today was the day he had arranged to travel with Yan Xu, Mo Xuan, and others to Tianling County to attend the cultivator exchange meeting.

Although there are still two days before the exchange meeting actually begins.

However, considering the time it takes for merchant ships to sail, and the need to find a place to stay, it is naturally better to go as soon as possible.

So, after having breakfast, Chen Yushu went out.

Soon, Yan Xu and Mo Xuan were spotted at the dock.

Besides the two people, he also saw an acquaintance.

Zhang He, the Director of the Zhenyin Division.

"Zhang He greets Senior!"

When Zhang He saw Chen Yushu, he also bowed.

"Fellow Daoist, are you also heading to Tianling County?"

Chen Yushu asked him some questions out of curiosity.

"Exactly.

Before I could even introduce myself, I said, "Young man, I am a member of the Zhang family of Tianling County. This exchange meeting happens to be taking place on Linan Street, which is under the control of my Zhang family, so I need to go to Tianling County to maintain order."

Zhang He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said...

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yushu finally understood.

It is not to say that all the people in Zhenyinsi, Qinghe County, are from Qinghe County.

Similarly, there were also cultivators transferred from other places, either to gain experience or to undergo trials.

Clearly, this is exactly the case with Zhang He.

He didn't care about that.

He had heard of the Zhang family of Tianling County; they were a major producer of spiritual plants in the county, possessing a vast quantity of various spiritual materials.

It is worth mentioning that most of the spiritual materials he used to refine elixirs were purchased from the Zhang family.

"If there are any scarce spiritual materials next time, we can ask the Zhang family for advice."

Muttering to themselves, they quickly boarded the boat after a shout.

Merchant ships travel at a slow speed.

It would take them a whole day to reach Tianling County.

Having learned from his previous experience, Chen Yushu wasn't bothered by this. He simply found a cabin on a boat and sat down cross-legged.

The reason he was willing to travel by merchant ship instead of on his own was that waterways were relatively safe and provided a map for a place to stay.

In this way, he can also take this opportunity to cultivate.

A whole day is quite a long time for him.

He naturally needed to take this opportunity to improve his strength as much as possible.

After declining Yan Xu, Mo Xuan, and the others' invitation to communicate, Chen Yushu immediately closed the door and immersed himself in cultivation.

Within the body, the Huangshan visualization method operates automatically.

However, his spiritual power had already spread out instantly, directly extracting and locking onto one of the profound laws within those endless rules.

This profound law is one of the three mysteries of the Blood Escape Technique that he has not yet mastered.

This mysterious phenomenon was named 'burn'.

Blood Escape Technique.

Although it was incredibly mysterious, through his previous observations of the Flying Blood Zombie's performance and his understanding of the structure of his countless spell runes, he had long known that while this method was mysterious, it did consume a lot of energy.

The most fundamental mystery lies in the mystery of 'burning'.

Everything can burn.

Just like when the Flying Blood Zombie is unleashed, what burns first is its soul power. If its soul power is exhausted, it will burn its soul essence and spirit, and then its soul body itself.

In other words, theoretically, as long as it has enough power, it can continuously use this technique.

However, in reality, this method is extremely energy-consuming when one's own strength is insufficient. Even the Flying Blood Zombie, at its peak, can only use it three times.

Any more than that, and it will damage the source.

And this is the mystery of 'burning' at work.

"And to truly comprehend it, besides observation, one must genuinely grasp the profound nature of this rule..."

As Chen Yushu's mind raced, he also continuously contemplated the profound mystery of this rule.

Discovering this rule is incredibly simple.

It's like a dot in a complex character. It looks very simple and can be written easily, but in reality, this dot seems to contain endless mystery. No matter how you put down your pen, you can't write it correctly.

What appears to be a simple dot is actually an extremely complex character; even copying it requires a great deal of effort to complete.

"I feel that even two days might not be enough to fully comprehend the mystery of this rule."

Unless, by reverse reasoning, this rule can be made more mysterious and complex…

Chen Yushu pondered.

But they found that this was also a very difficult thing.

The reason why our predecessors were able to complicate the mysteries of the rules and create spells that ordinary cultivators could use was not because they were smarter, but because they had first thoroughly comprehended the mysteries of the rules. Only then could they reverse-engineer and complicate the simple mysteries of the rules.

At this point, it will be extremely difficult for him to do so.

The problem will return to its origin; he must thoroughly comprehend the mystery of this rule.

But if that were truly the case, why would he be so conflicted?

"How about we perform this Blood Escape Technique once, following the mysterious order of the rules?"

Perhaps there are other associations?

Chen Yushu quickly came up with another method.

That is to use the Blood Escape Technique itself to restore the original form of that mysterious rule, thereby achieving a complete understanding of it.

Because a single rule is profound, its meaning can be multifaceted.

Just like the same word, it can have many different interpretations.

However, if it falls into words or idioms, its meaning and interpretation become relatively simple.

In this way, the corresponding text can be described more accurately.

At that moment, he also thought of this method.

Simply follow the steps to unleash the magical runes formed by the mysteries of other rules, and you will naturally be able to fully understand the mysteries of the corresponding rules by comparing them side to side.

In this way, it will naturally help Chen Yushu to comprehend the profound mystery of this rule.

The reason why this method can be used to comprehend something is naturally because it is based on the corresponding profound and mysterious rules.

Otherwise, he would have had an absolute difficulty in simply replicating this spell.

"Let's start, let's try it out first."

After figuring out the feasibility of this method, Chen Yushu quickly made a decision.

Then, he began to put his skills into practice.

With a slight movement of his mental energy, Chen Yushu began to cast spells one by one according to the mysterious order of the corresponding rules, based on the structure of the spell runes that he had already comprehended and mastered.

Although, the simplest method is to use the mysterious rules to implement it.

However, he had not fully grasped all the mysteries of this spell beforehand; he had only found a 'substitute' through the spell's rune structure.

When it comes to actually casting the spell, he can only use a substitute.

Then, with increased proficiency and experience, continuous optimization is achieved until the moment when the subtleties of the rules are reproduced... (End of Chapter)
