Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

As a top-tier spell, and it was in the treasure vault of their Seven Gods Sect, he naturally couldn't resist learning it.

Therefore, those favored by the gods had already mastered this divine light of certainty and were very clear about the function of this spell.

It was under these circumstances that he practiced diligently for three years before he finally mastered the basics of this spell.

The results of it?
How long has it been since he gave this magic to Chen Yushu?

Only a few days.

As it turned out, the opponent had already mastered the basics of this spell and used it in battle, reducing the casting time by more than half.

How could this not shock him?
For the first time, I truly felt that the gap between people is like a chasm, difficult to cross.

"Is this what genius is?"

He considers himself a genius, his cultivation speed is not slow, and he has had various fortuitous encounters, which is why he considers himself a god-favored one.

But it was only then that he realized what a true chosen one of the gods looked like.

He had mastered a top-tier spell in just three or four days and had already cultivated it to an incredibly profound level... The key point was that he was very clear that the other party had learned more than one spell during this period.

Based on the number of spells they provided, there were five or six hundred...

Upon hearing this, Jiu Hulu and Ziluolan also looked at Chen Yushu with complicated expressions.

Violet, almost as if possessed, asked, "What level of meditation are you in?"

"Constant!"

Chen Yushu did not hide anything and spoke frankly.

"Constant...constant?"

The wine gourd that was listening couldn't help but gasp.

You should know that he only recently broke through from Da Ding to Chang Ding.

It was precisely because of this that he felt he had made rapid progress, breaking through from the late stage of the Daoist Nascent Soul stage to the peak of the Daoist Nascent Soul stage, feeling that his breakthrough was extremely significant, and that he was able to break through to the Daoist Night Wandering realm.

He was well aware of the importance of entering a meditative state for a cultivator.

After all, this progress and breakthrough is real and tangible.

But what did he hear?
Chen Yushu's meditative state has reached a state of constant stillness.

It is constant, but infinitely stronger than constant.

Just the fact that he was constantly in a stable state allowed him to make great progress in his cultivation. Heaven knows what kind of effect this constant state will have.

Moreover, he could sense that it would be impossible for him to move from the meditative state to the constant state within at least thirty to fifty years.

The difference in their levels of understanding is simply immeasurable.

In the entire cultivation world, cultivators who can maintain a constant meditative state at the entry-level are extremely rare, almost non-existent.

He never expected that there was one right next to him.

"It's already constant!?"

The one favored by the gods also opened his mouth, revealing a look of shock.

I also felt a pang of sadness.

He originally thought of himself as a guide, a veteran cultivator, and felt a sense of taking care of Chen Yushu, who was a junior.

However, he discovered that the other party's talent for cultivation and strength had already surpassed his own.

Not only has he reached the realm of entering the Dao, but his strength and methods are also superior, and even his realm of entering the Dao is completely above his...

"No wonder!"

Upon hearing this, Violet nodded, clearly having already guessed it.

She knew all too well the role of meditative states in a cultivator's practice.

Each breakthrough in meditative states, while not significantly increasing a cultivator's absolute strength, can definitely lead to a rapid increase in their power within a short period.

Judging from Chen Yushu's various behaviors and progress in strength, she naturally guessed that his meditative state was extremely high.

He's at least much taller than her.

The other person's answer at that moment merely confirmed her idea.

"alright.

Don't be too happy yet. First, take a look around at your surroundings to see if there are any unknown dangers.

Then, Violet changed her tone and began to look around.

"This place truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient herb garden."

There are so many spiritual materials, and many of them have already evolved into rare and precious treasures; any one of them would be incredibly valuable.

The wine gourd also started shouting loudly.

As for the danger.

Apart from a few bees posing some threat, there is almost no danger.

On the contrary, this vast medicinal garden has a wide variety of medicinal herbs.

Although many spiritual materials did not grow well due to lack of care and overgrown weeds.

But the years are all long enough.

Among them are not only many spiritual materials that are three or four hundred years old, but also several rare and precious materials that are thousands of years old.

Of course, there are also some from younger years, some from several years ago, and some from several decades ago.

These are all products of the normal reproduction of spiritual herbs and materials.

The quality is generally not very good simply because they lack maintenance.

"If there aren't enough years left, don't touch them yet."

If all goes well, we can manage this cave dwelling properly, hire someone to take care of it, and perhaps then we'll have a continuous supply of spiritual materials and resources.”

The one favored by the gods also spoke, his eyes burning with fervor.

"rest assured!"

The wine gourd responded and immediately walked to the nearest century-old precious medicine and began to carefully dig it up.

None of them are fools.

Of course, I know the difference between a one-time output and an annual output.

The spiritual energy within this cave is abundant, far surpassing that of the surrounding area.

Furthermore, these at least hundreds of acres of medicinal herb fields, if utilized, would yield incredibly high profits, potentially even aiding future cultivation and eliminating worries about resources.

Therefore, the gains within the cave are only one aspect; the entire cave itself is the most important.

This is why they have kept the secret and not leaked information about this cave.

Because this is an industry that can be passed down through generations.

Therefore, when they harvest spiritual materials, they try to harvest those that are old enough and of relatively high value.

At this moment, Chen Yushu quickly arrived in front of the fragrant green fruit.

This fragrant fruit tree is already quite old; if counted by its annual rings, it is about 298 or even 299 years old, right at the end of its 100-year flowering period.

It will be ripe and bear spiritual fruit in just one year.

Unfortunately, this spiritual fruit was extremely effective and also helped his cultivation.

And he couldn't possibly wait a year or two for this.

"Fortunately, when I exchanged spells from the Zhenyin Division before, I learned a set of spiritual plant spells."

Among them are techniques like growth-inducing magic and growth ring magic, which can directly help spiritual plants grow.

Perhaps it's possible to forcibly advance the age of this spiritual plant, accelerating its maturity?

As Chen Yushu thought this, the corresponding spell rune structure of this spell quickly flashed through his mind.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yushu first used a birth-inducing technique.

One breath, two breaths...

In an instant, the spell took shape, and a special spiritual light gathered and landed on the fragrant emerald fruit tree.

"Indeed, there has been some growth over the years."

Chen Yushu quickly used his divine observation technique and immediately noticed that the annual rings of the fragrant jade fruit tree had increased slightly.

Although the increase was small, it was indeed an increase.

"This is just a fertility-inducing technique."

"What if it's the Tree Ring Technique?" Chen Yushu thought to himself, and the method of casting the Tree Ring Technique flashed through his mind.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Soon, a special dazzling light descended and enveloped the entire fragrant fruit tree.

Almost instantly, Chen Yushu saw that on that fragrant green fruit tree, among the blooming flowers, fruits were rapidly growing and taking shape.

Petals fell one by one, quickly absorbed by the soil and transformed into spiritual mud...

Almost in the blink of an eye, several fruits grew and took shape, becoming fist-sized fruits that were dark black and reddish-brown.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely enticing fragrance wafted out.

"The fragrant jade fruit, is it done?"

Chen Yushu was dumbfounded.

He originally only intended to try it out, which is why he used the growth-inducing technique and the annual ring technique to experiment.

After all, if he were to harvest this spiritual fruit within its normal growth period, he would need to wait at least a year.

But to everyone's surprise, these two spells actually worked.

The growth years of this fragrant elixir tree were directly increased from 299 years to 300 years, and then the fragrant elixir was solidified.

This allows him to harvest the spiritual fruit ahead of time.

"However, this spell is not without its limitations."

My own Dao Yuan consumption is not too bad, it's not a big deal.

However, the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be drained away in an instant, and even the spiritual energy and nutrients within a certain range around it were completely absorbed by it.

This allows it to complete such growth in a short period of time.

"A spiritual fruit has grown!"

Chen Yushu quickly discovered a slight drawback to this spell.

This tree ring technique can indeed help spiritual fruits grow rapidly, shortening their growth time by almost a year in a very short moment.

However, the required spiritual energy is by no means small.

This can be seen from the fact that the surrounding spiritual soil cracked instantly and was almost completely drained, and that the spiritual grasses, which were about ten feet in size, withered as well.

Its growth requires the consumption of sufficient spiritual energy to complete.

And this is the power and domineering nature of the tree ring method.

"But relatively speaking."

"Given enough spirit stones and spiritual energy, it's possible to infinitely accelerate the growth of a particular spiritual plant or material, forcibly pushing it to maturity?"

The thought flashed through Chen Yushu's mind, and a look of astonishment and horror appeared on his face.

Suddenly, I gained a deeper understanding and longing for the spiritual plants in the ancient cultivation world.

No wonder the ancient cultivation world was so prosperous, with an abundance of all kinds of spiritual materials and natural treasures. It also developed all sorts of wondrous and powerful elixirs and immortal pills.

With the assistance of a spirit plant master and an abundance of spiritual materials, it is possible to refine more spiritual pills.

"What is this? The Fragrant Jade Fruit Tree?"
I just saw this spirit fruit plant too. Wasn't it only in its flowering stage? How did it start bearing fruit already?

And why are all the spiritual materials around here withered?

The intoxicating fruity aroma, along with the unusual surroundings, immediately caught the attention of the nearest violet.

She had naturally discovered this spiritual material long ago, but it was not old enough and had not yet borne fruit, so she did not approach it. Instead, she chose another spiritual material that was over three hundred years old.

Although it is not as valuable as the Jade Fragrance Spirit Fruit, it can be picked directly and is equally valuable.

As a result, after sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy around her, she suddenly saw that the fragrant emerald fruit, which originally would have taken several years to mature, was ripe, and she was immediately stunned.

"He cast a spell."

He matured.

Chen Yushu smiled slightly and said.

"What spell?"

Violet was taken aback, then seemed to remember something and asked, "Is it a spiritual plant magic passed down from ancient times?"

"That's right?"

Chen Yushu was taken aback at first, but then he remembered that the other party's inheritance was extraordinary, so it was quite normal for him to know these things. He quickly nodded.

No wonder.

The art of cultivating ancient spiritual plants is one of the four great skills among the myriad arts of immortal cultivation.

It flourished, and it is said that even divine materials and medicines could be cultivated.

Furthermore, there are various spiritual plant techniques such as growth-inducing techniques, annual ring techniques, and age-borrowing techniques.

In particular, the technique of borrowing years can borrow the years and infuse them into spiritual plants; its effects are truly terrifying.

It can directly cultivate a spiritual plant that is less than a hundred years old into a thousand-year-old spiritual medicine.

Of course, the corresponding cost of performing the spell is also extremely high.

"Fellow Daoist, you were able to cultivate this fragrant emerald fruit tree to maturity, you must have used a growth-inducing technique or a growth-ring technique, right?"

Violet looked at Chen Yushu and spoke.

"Can the technique of borrowing years borrow boundless years and infuse them into spiritual plants?"

Chen Yushu's eyes lit up, and he immediately felt an overwhelming longing.

This spell is definitely very useful, especially for an alchemist like him. Besides the pill formula, the most difficult thing is to gather all kinds of spiritual materials.

Especially high-quality spiritual materials that require a long period of time are extremely rare and hard to find.

However, if one could learn this technique of borrowing time, then even those thousand-year-old spiritual herbs could be cultivated by oneself.

Nature's demands on the outside world have thus been infinitely reduced.

"It was indeed by using the annual ring technique that this spiritual plant was brought to life."

Then he spoke again.

"really.

However, only cultivators with exceptional magical talent like you, fellow Daoist, can successfully master and execute the Annual Ring Technique.

Even cultivators at the Dao Realm level would need at least one or two years to master this technique.

While ordinary growth-inducing techniques can also help spiritual plants grow, they cannot do it as quickly.

In this way, the gains from our operation this time may be much greater than we imagined.

While I was there, I discovered more than one kind of top-grade spiritual material and fruit.

The only problem is that the harvest season is too short to be completed in time.

If we combine this with your tree ring technique, we can cultivate them all in a short time.

Upon hearing this, Violet's eyes lit up.

Then he looked at the fragrant green fruit and said, "There are five green fruits here."

Fellow Daoist, you have two of them.

"Shall I and the one favored by the gods each take one gourd of wine?"

"This... I only need one copy."

"Didn't we agree beforehand that everyone would get a share of the spoils, and no one would be shortchanged?"

Chen Yushu hesitated slightly before refusing.

"These are not the same."

According to normal circumstances, we wouldn't be able to obtain this Jade Fragrance Spirit Fruit because it's not old enough.

However, thanks to your annual ring technique, I am already quite fortunate to be able to receive a share.

Not to mention.

This fragrant spiritual fruit can transform a cultivator's physique and greatly increase their affinity with spiritual energy.

However, it only works if you eat one; even if you eat several, the growth effect is not obvious.

"It's useless for us to take more."

Violet continued. (End of Chapter)
