Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

"Well.

The date was set for three days from now.

Three days later, once everyone was ready, we set off!

Upon hearing this, the wine gourd beside him relaxed and quickly spoke up.

"Then in three days."

This is a good time for everyone to prepare.

Those favored by the gods also make the final decision.

Neither Violet nor Chen Yushu had any objections to this.

Three days was long enough for him.

This is enough to give him a slight boost in strength.

Chen Yushu was also planning in his mind whether he needed to choose a suitable spell to cultivate, preferably one that could greatly enhance his strength.

A spell to freeze someone? A technique to borrow divine power? Or a technique to destroy a god?
Chen Yushu quickly thought it over and decided that the Body-Fixing Divine Light would be of the greatest help to him.

As for the art of borrowing divine power, it is described as mysterious in the descriptions of magic, but its specifics can only be known by actually performing it.

As for the art of destroying gods, whether one is a beginner or an expert, it is actually not very useful.

If Chen Yushu were facing a cultivator whose strength was much weaker than his own, he could easily kill the opponent no matter what methods he used.

However, if he were facing a cultivator of the same level as himself, then the power of the God-Slaying Technique would likely be limited, given that it was only at the level of a master.

Perhaps only a minor or even major level of God-Slaying Technique can inflict significant damage on it.

But the Immobilizing Divine Light is different.

Even a slight stagnation can lead to a huge change in the course of battle.

After all, for cultivators of their strength, they can make one or two moves in the blink of an eye.

"Now that the time has been set..."

Next, we need to formulate a plan for entering the cave.

Having experienced entering a cave once before, I have a certain understanding of the environment inside.

That black bear spirit is just one of the threats we know of.

No one knows whether there are other threats besides the black bear spirit inside that cave.

For example, are the souls of those ancient cultivators still alive?

If they were alive, what state would they be in now?
For example, are there any hidden threats or terrifying formations?

These all require detailed planning and responses…

Violet nodded, agreeing to set off in three days. However, in practice, they couldn't just blindly follow the plan; they needed to make a schedule so they could retreat in time and ensure their own safety.

The dinner party didn't finally end until the crescent moon was high in the sky.

"alright.

The monks' exchange meeting is probably about to begin.

If you're interested, you can go and take a look.

Finally, Violet spoke softly.

"and many more.

Before I conclude, I have a request, fellow Daoists, could you please do me a favor?

Upon hearing this, Chen Yushu finally found an opportunity to speak.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

The wine gourd was taken aback upon hearing this.

Violet just looked at him without saying a word.

"In my cultivation, I need a lot of spells to deduce and verify some things."

Therefore, if any fellow Daoists have any spells that can be passed on, feel free to sell them to me?
Prices are all based on market rates; we will absolutely not let any of you fellow cultivators suffer losses.

Chen Yushu spoke without hesitation.

"Spells?"
"Fellow Daoist psychic, do you wish to create your own method?"

Upon hearing this, Violet's eyes lit up.

"Creating laws?"

The gourd-shaped wine bottle glared at him.

Creating new methods is not something that ordinary people can do.

Especially for cultivators like them who have already reached the pinnacle of cultivation and are about to embark on nighttime journeys, the difficulty is even more apparent.

Of course, they never thought of creating a new law.

If we can't even understand the spells of our predecessors, where would we find the energy to create a new spell?
However, they also greatly admire and respect cultivators who are capable of and dare to create new techniques.

Because cultivators who create spells truly have a far greater understanding and comprehension of magic than ordinary cultivators, and if they successfully create a spell, their strength will inevitably be extremely formidable.

After all, once a cultivator creates a spell, it must originate from himself, rely on his own cultivation system, and come from the spell that is most suitable for him in the dark.

Therefore, the spells created by such cultivators are often quite powerful, allowing them to maximize their own strength and potential.

In fact, many supernatural powers and unique skills were created by cultivators who were capable of creating their own methods.

However, generally speaking, those who can create methods are usually cultivators who have only entered the Dao realm and are still in the early stages, with almost no future prospects. It is something that even cultivators in the Soul Refining Realm would consider.

Fellow Daoist Psychic, you've already created your own techniques so quickly?
"I see!"

Upon hearing this, even the one favored by the gods couldn't help but reveal a look of understanding.

He had already exchanged over a hundred spells for Chen Yushu today. Out of trust in him, although he was puzzled, he did not ask in detail.

Only now do I realize that Chen Yushu was actually planning to create a new law?
"I do have that idea."

Chen Yushu remained silent for a moment before speaking.

In the future, he will inevitably create laws.

In fact, with his current level of accumulation, he was indeed capable of creating new techniques.

After all, he had mastered too many spells, accumulated countless spell rune structures, and even identified more than 170 profound laws.

If you create a method based on this foundation, it will naturally be very easy.

However, all of this is based on his current accumulation of experience, which is the basis for creating new methods.

Even if he succeeds, it won't mean much to him.

Because at this point, he could only create supernatural techniques similar to the Blood Escape Technique.

In terms of power, it is impossible to surpass it.

And it is highly likely that it is a kind of supernatural ability, such as the art of escape.

After all, the profound laws he mastered were all related to escape techniques.

So naturally, when these profound laws are the main focus, the techniques created are like escape techniques.

It doesn't mean much to him.

Therefore, if he wants to create a spell, he must have accumulated a very strong level of power in all aspects before he can truly create a spell that is unique to him, powerful, and can help him take his strength to the next level.

As for the misunderstandings of fellow Daoists such as the wine gourd and violet?
He was actually quite happy with it.

"As for magic, I have accumulated some over the years."

But not many, because I didn't deliberately collect them; there are about forty. I'll organize them a bit and send them to you.”

Then, Violet paused for a moment before speaking.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist."

"Fellow Daoist, name your price, and I will certainly satisfy you."

Chen Yushu was overjoyed and quickly cupped his hands in greeting.

"I didn't need it anyway, so I'm giving it to you."

Violet shook her head and said.

"This won't work.

One thing at a time. Since you're unwilling to make a bid, I'll set my own price based on the market rate.

"The spirit stones will naturally be delivered at that time."

Chen Yushu shook his head and said with a serious expression.

"what ever!"

Violet simply responded with a sound of agreement, then said, "Anyway, you're not short of money."

As he spoke, he gave him a meaningful look. Chen Yushu raised an eyebrow but didn't seem to care.

"I have relatively few spells here, only about a dozen."

Compared to spells, I'm much better at using magical artifacts.

The wine gourd then spoke up as well.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

Chen Yushu also spoke up.

Then, prices were set according to the number and grade of the corresponding spells.

Finally, Chen Yushu gave the wine gourd three hundred low-grade spirit stones, which was considered a high price, because most of the spells he gave were of average grade, with only two high-grade spells.

As for Violet's more than forty spells, most of them were not on her person and could only be sent over after she had organized them.

So, they finally left Zuixianlou.

"Let's go to the cultivators' exchange meeting and take a look around."

The one favored by the gods smiled and said to Chen Yushu.

"it is good!"

Chen Yushu nodded.

"Perfect timing, I'm a local bigwig here, so I'll take you there."

The wine gourd also said with a smile.

Chen Yushu and others have no problem with it.

As for Violet, she went straight home.

She wasn't very interested in this exchange meeting.

Soon, Chen Yushu, along with the wine gourd and the two favored by the gods, passed through a small alley, then turned and arrived at the door of a house that looked like a large courtyard.

Opening the gate, it appears to be an ordinary courtyard.

But the moment they stepped inside...

A flash before his eyes.

Immediately, a very bustling-looking street appeared.

Countless cultivators and people moved about in the streets.

There were stalls on the ground.

All kinds of spiritual practice tools are included.

Talismans, spirit ores, spirit materials, and many precious medicines and spiritual herbs.

After walking a few steps, I came across a stall displaying magical artifacts of all grades, from low-grade to mid-grade and even high-grade.

Besides these, there are also vendors selling spirit beasts, soul beads, and ghost artifacts...

It looks truly bustling.

"There are quite a few people here."

Even those favored by the gods couldn't help but sigh upon seeing this.

"really.

Our annual cultivator exchange meeting in Tianling County has become a tradition over the years, with a number of people regularly attending almost every year.

Naturally, more and more people joined in over time.

With a smile, Jiu Hulu began to lead Chen Yushu and the others inside.

However, at this moment, Chen Yushu stopped at a stall.

This stall displays many jade slips.

However, these jade slips are different from ordinary jade slips in that they all look very ancient and seem to be quite old.

"Fellow Daoist, would you like to gamble with the jade slip?"

The stall owner was a cultivator who looked to be in his thirties. Although he had concealed his cultivation level to some extent, it naturally did not escape Chen Yushu's eyes. He was at the level of a three-incense stick's worth of cultivation.

In this cultivator exchange meeting, they were relatively ordinary, but not weak either.

Because when Chen Yushu glanced around, he saw that most of the cultivators he had just seen were at the level of one or two incense sticks in the Dao, and some of them had no cultivation at all.

They were just brought by some elders to broaden their horizons.

Of course, there are cultivators at the Dao Entry Realm like him, but they are extremely rare. Besides the three of them who stand out from the crowd, there are two others scattered in different places.

Chen Yushu had no intention of paying attention to or contacting them.

"Betting on jade slips?"

Chen Yushu asked in confusion.

"right.

Gambling on jade slips.

These are jade slips that I painstakingly collected from various ancient ruins and caves.

Fellow Daoist should also know that this ancient jade slip naturally contains ancient inheritances and powerful magical abilities.

However, it is also possible that it contains some low-level spells, or simply a daily jade slip recording some trivial matters.

After all, the ancient cultivation world was thriving, and almost everyone had the ability to pass on their knowledge by inscribing text on jade slips.

There were even cases of people using jade slips to write diaries and keep accounts.

Therefore, gambling is necessary.

If you are lucky enough to gamble on a miraculous technique, that would be a great opportunity for you, fellow Daoist.

If you're unlucky and end up with a useless diary or biographical jade slip, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

Therefore, this jade slip gambling has the potential for both gain and loss; it all depends on your luck, fellow Daoist.

The stall owner said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry. As the stall owner, I'm not trying to cheat you, because each of these ancient jade slips has been sealed with a restriction."

Only by breaking the seal can one view the contents inside.

These restrictions are varied and complex, and even cultivators at the Dao Realm need to expend considerable effort to break them.

I certainly cannot do that.

So even I don't really know what's recorded in these jade slips.

It could be a miraculous technique, or it could just be some minor spell, or it could even be a blank, useless jade slip.

The stall owner continued to explain.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yushu appeared interested.

Seeing this, the wine gourd beside him quickly transmitted a message: "Fellow Daoist favored by the gods, don't believe this."

Despite his flowery words, there are quite a few cultivators who know how to aging techniques.

The so-called ancient jade slips are very likely new jade slips made by them and buried in certain places.

It might contain some ordinary spells, but more likely, it's just some discarded jade slips.

They probably wouldn't leave behind any truly valuable spells.

"I know!"

Chen Yushu replied and then squatted down.

There are indeed quite a few of these ancient jade slips, piled up in heaps, totaling at least several hundred.

He naturally didn't believe that these were all ancient jade slips passed down from antiquity; there must be many of them that had been artificially aged using special techniques.

As for the restrictions mentioned above, they were naturally set up using ancient methods.

Once such things circulate, they often become a huge industry. For example, he had seen similar stalls betting on jade slips at a small gathering of cultivators in Qinghe County.

Once there is enough profit, cultivators will naturally be tempted to specialize in making it.

"Can I use magic to see it?"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yushu looked up at the stall owner again and spoke.

This kind of selection relies on visual judgment.

Using magic is also a way to demonstrate one's eyesight.

The stall owner seemed extremely confident in the jade slips he possessed, and didn't believe anyone could determine their age using magic. He confidently nodded and said, "Please proceed!" (End of Chapter)
