Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

As he took a step forward, the killing formation that had been gradually activated subsided once again.

"Follow!"

Seeing this, Violet felt relieved, quickly gave a low shout, and followed.

The chosen one and the wine gourd stepped forward without hesitation.

After sensing the movement behind him, Chen Yushu did not stop and took another step after taking one step.

At this moment, he was completely focused on breaking the formation.

The countless books on formations that he had previously studied and understood now served as his resources, helping him to comprehend and break this killing formation.

In addition, Violet's previous understanding and ideas about this formation provided him with countless ideas and inspirations at this moment.

With almost every step he took, he had already seen through the formation, discerned its next flaw, and then quickly stepped out, treading on the only path to survival amidst countless killing intents.

The so-called Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine.

This escaped one is the only way to survive.

Ancient cultivators, though possessing unique skills in array formations, have indeed achieved a relatively high level in the quality of this entire array, reaching the third tier.

But it is impossible to completely obscure that one and only way out that has escaped.

At least, the opponent's array formation skills couldn't be hidden from Chen Yushu's eyes.

He took one step at a time, and his speed increased instead of decreasing.

Until he felt a sudden light in his eyes.

A huge medicinal garden, stretching for dozens of feet, reappeared before his eyes.

Perhaps due to years of neglect, the entire medicinal garden appeared quite desolate, overgrown with weeds, and some vines grew so tall that they seemed to block out the sky.

There were also many weeds and shrubs growing densely, some so thick that one person could hug them.

It can be said that almost all of them have been growing for a hundred years, or even several hundred years.

But even so.

Through the countless weeds and shrubs, and the dense, continuous vines, he could still see the spiritual materials brimming with spiritual energy.

Some have withered and decayed over the years, turning into spiritual mud and spiritual soil, while others are still growing vigorously, clearly having aged and can be called rare and precious materials.

For example, a dozen or so feet away from him, there was a bright red flower in full bloom.

Fragrant Jade Fruit!

It takes a hundred years to grow, a hundred years to mature, a hundred years to bloom, and a hundred years to bear fruit, and the fruiting period lasts only a short year.

The fragrant elixir tree was clearly in its hundred-year flowering period and was approaching three hundred years old, about to bear fruit.

Perhaps in a year, perhaps in two years, it will mature and bear fruit.

The effects of the Jade Fragrance Spirit Fruit are quite simple: it increases a cultivator's affinity for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

What is affinity?
It is important to know that there has always been spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

It's just that it's saturated in some places and sparse in others.

In the real world, due to the upheaval hundreds of years ago, spiritual energy has been gradually removed, becoming extremely thin.

But it does not mean it doesn't exist.

Whether it's ancient cultivation or modern Yin-Yang cultivators like them, their cultivation relies more on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Once one's affinity for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth increases, then naturally, this spiritual energy that is free-floating around will converge towards him.

Compared to ordinary cultivators, they naturally have more advantages, and their cultivation efficiency can be increased to a certain extent as a result.

"It's just a pity that it's still several years away from the actual results."

While Chen Yushu was feeling sentimental, a thought suddenly struck him, and he quickly remembered a spell.

"Roar!"

But it was at this very moment.

A furious roar rang out.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a huge figure, about ten feet tall, rushing over.

It was none other than the Black Bear Spirit that had appeared before.

In fact.

The moment Chen Yushu stepped out of the formation, he had already noticed the other party's presence.

However, his gaze was sharp as lightning, and the herb garden inside the cave was indeed too eye-catching, so he didn't focus his attention on the other party.

The other person seemed to sense his neglect and became extremely angry. He rushed over and slapped him hard with his palm.

"careful!"

Just then, Violet followed Chen Yushu's footsteps and rushed out of the formation.

Just as she was marveling at Chen Yushu's array formation skills, which were even superior to hers, she suddenly saw the black bear demon lying in ambush nearby, attacking Chen Yushu. She immediately cried out in alarm.

Chen Yushu's expression remained unchanged.

He had already guessed that since the black bear demon didn't dare to make a move within the killing formation, it would definitely launch a sneak attack the moment they left the formation.

In its view, Chen Yushu and the others would have been subjected to the baptism of the killing formation before they went into battle. Not only would their Dao Yuan be greatly depleted, but their many defensive measures would also be almost completely exhausted, leaving them with little power to resist.

This is the most opportune time to make a move.

Unfortunately, he was unaware of this, because Violet had a great deal of knowledge about this killing formation beforehand, and with Chen Yushu leading them out of the formation, their group suffered almost no losses.

The Black Bear Spirit was now facing Chen Yushu at his peak.

As its attack landed, Chen Yushu also made his move.

bump!
The black bear demon slammed its palm down on Chen Yushu, but a layer of seven-colored light quickly reappeared, blocking all of its attack.

Seven-Colored Divine Light to Avert Calamity!

The Seven-Colored Divine Light of Calamity at the Great Perfection level possesses such strong defensive power that even the Azure Dragon would find it difficult to break through.

Although the black bear spirit in front of me may not be much weaker than the Azure Dragon, it is far inferior in terms of absolute power.

After all, the Azure Dragon is a dragon species, a true divine beast.

This black bear spirit merely possesses the bloodline of the Azure-Eyed Golden-Eyed Bear, making it a descendant of a divine beast.

Even the concentration of bloodline might not be very high, and the power difference is enormous.

Therefore, Chen Yushu's Seven-Colored Divine Light of Salvation only trembled slightly and dimmed by 30% before it became completely stable.

Immediately afterward, one of Chen Yushu's spells transformed into a stream of light and rushed straight ahead.

puff!
Divine Descent Technique!
The perfect level of Divine Descent can be cast instantly.

In a hurry, this spell is naturally the most suitable.

Then a beam of black light shot straight at the black bear spirit's head and exploded with a crisp sound.

The opponent staggered and was blasted back several steps.

Under the onslaught of terrifying power, it was immediately reduced to a bloody mess, making its already horrifying face even more ferocious.

"Roar!"

I was just about to make another move.

To their astonishment, the person opposite them suddenly clasped their hands together and bowed slightly.

Apologize?

Feeling guilty because you hurt yourself?
The thought had barely formed in its mind when it suddenly felt an incredibly terrifying pressure descend upon its soul.

It was as if at this moment, an incomparably majestic deity suddenly descended, causing immense damage to its mind and spirit.

The method of offering blessings! At this moment, Chen Yushu used the method of offering blessings.

The Blessing Technique, which he has now cultivated to perfection, is not only no less powerful than the Divine Descent Technique, but also carries a special kind of positional attack.

Positional attacks are a contest of understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the strength of one's soul, and even the level of one's meditative state.

Although, in terms of sheer power level, the Black Bear Spirit was far stronger than Chen Yushu, and his spiritual strength was also considerable, in terms of meditative absorption and understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Black Bear Spirit was far inferior to him.

Therefore, when this attack landed, it was as if someone had hit it hard on the head with a big hammer, making a loud clanging and buzzing sound.

My head was throbbing with pain, and even my mind went blank for a moment, completely losing focus.

At this moment, the chosen one and the wine gourd also appeared. Seeing this scene, they did not hesitate at all and quickly took action.

The two were unable to unleash their full potential while trapped within the formation, their strength was limited. Now that they have stepped out of the formation, their power is immediately unleashed.

Among them, the wine gourd swells in the wind, blowing out endless gales.

The one favored by the gods threw the large ruler, which transformed into a streak of light and struck directly at the target.

bump!bump!bump!
Even though the Black Bear Spirit reacted in time, it was still attacked by Chen Yushu and then subjected to the methods of several of them. How could it withstand it?
The hastily summoned sword pellets only managed to block the first wave of attacks before being unable to withstand them any longer.

Seeing this, it finally panicked and tried to escape.

But Chen Yushu, who was well-prepared, would never let it leave.

The spell, which had been prepared for a long time, was unleashed in an instant.

Instantly, a special divine light transformed into a stream of light and struck it directly, causing its turning body to pause slightly and stop in place.

Immobilize with divine light!

At this moment, Chen Yushu used one of the top-grade spells that the chosen one had exchanged for him from the Seven Stars Gate: the Body-Immobilizing Divine Light.

Although it involves a large number of spell runes, the difficulty of mastering it is far greater than that of other ordinary spells.

But given his efficiency and foundation in cultivating magic, mastering it would naturally not be difficult.

Knowing that he would be exploring the ancient cultivator's cave, he naturally wouldn't forget to practice this kind of magic that could be used in battle.

Although he had only mastered the minor skill, the casting time was much longer than other spells, reaching five breaths.

But once it was used, it immediately proved effective.

This caused the black bear spirit to pause slightly, instantly freezing in place.

Immediately afterwards, he used the Subduing Yin Technique and the Seven Star Steps.

At this moment, Violet also made her move, using a cage-like spell to trap the Black Bear Spirit inside.

After several control spells were cast in succession, the Black Bear Spirit was unable to move and was quickly hit by the attacks of the God's Chosen One and the Wine Gourd.

puff!
Especially that giant ruler, which looked inconspicuous but was extremely powerful, struck the black bear demon's head and shattered it.

The physical body was almost completely destroyed.

"Roar!"

The black bear spirit roared in panic, and then collapsed.

died?

Upon seeing this, the group was initially startled, but then they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't be careless!"

Seeing this, Violet did not show any relief. Instead, she reached out and patted her waist, quickly took out a small cauldron-shaped treasure, and tossed it away.

The small cauldron flew out and landed on the head of the black bear spirit.

buzz~
Just then, a shiny demon core flew out from the ground where the black bear demon was causing trouble.

As a result, it bumped head-on into her small cauldron, was frozen in place, and was then slowly pulled inside.

"This black bear spirit cultivates an ancient demonic technique. Its demon core can contain a soul, and it can also use the demon core to escape."

It can even unleash a final, fatal blow, shattering the demon core and unleashing power far exceeding its own cultivation level.

Given the opponent's early-stage Cataclysmic level power, that attack was at least comparable to a full-force strike from a late-stage Cataclysmic level ghost spirit.

Only then did Violet breathe a sigh of relief and begin to explain.

"I see.

Fortunately, we had Fellow Daoist Violet and Fellow Daoist Psychic on this trip.

Otherwise, subduing this black bear demon won't be so easy.

Upon hearing this, the wine gourd immediately began to flatter him.

"Yes, I didn't expect that we could kill this black bear demon so easily this time."

Thinking back to the last time, not only was everyone injured, but a fellow cultivator also perished here…

Those favored by the gods nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Comparing the two experiences, this time the ease felt somewhat unreal.

"This time, it was also a case of 'the one who was prepared, but the other was not.'"

Apart from the fact that our individual strengths have all increased slightly.

It was mainly because of the psychic who led us to break the formation.

If it weren't for the fact that the psychic was skilled in formations and brought us out of that killing formation unharmed, avoiding any loss of resources, we wouldn't have been able to defeat this black bear demon so quickly.

Moreover, the methods of the psychic fellow have truly broadened our horizons.

Those spells were not only incredibly powerful, but they could also be cast instantly; they were truly amazing.

As Violet spoke, her beautiful eyes involuntarily fell on Chen Yushu.

Although she had long known that Chen Yushu's cultivation level was already quite high, no weaker than hers, and his strength was also extremely formidable.

But since I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I don't have a deep understanding of it.

It wasn't until then, seeing the opponent make a move, that they truly realized the opponent's strength and methods.

Especially that continuous, rapid-fire spell.

Powerful and swift.

She felt inferior to him and admired him greatly.

"It just so happens that I have some understanding and proficiency in magic."

Chen Yushu smiled slightly and explained.

"Simply understanding and mastering it is not enough to achieve this."

It's not difficult to master one spell to the point of instant casting, but to master so many spells to the point of instant casting is truly remarkable.

Therefore, one must have an extremely profound understanding of various spells and cultivate them to their ultimate level.

Violet couldn't help but speak softly.

"Fellow Daoist Psychic, was the 'Immobilization Divine Light' you just used?"

At this moment, the one favored by the gods also spoke with some surprise.

"Yes."

Chen Yushu nodded.

The light that immobilized him was delivered to him by the hand of a divine favored one, so it's perfectly normal that the other party recognized him.

"I actually already exchanged for this spell a long time ago."

But after three years, you've only barely scratched the surface... and it takes a full fifteen breaths to cast a single spell.

The one favored by the gods couldn't help but say. (End of Chapter)
