Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chen Yushu was not surprised at all that this attack had silently annihilated the black and white ghosts.

Because this, after all, is a supernatural technique.

Let alone a weak ghost, even a vengeful spirit, evil spirit, or even a malevolent ghost would likely perish if it were to be struck by a single blow.

However, what made Chen Yushu feel uneasy was that this attack was not the one he had imagined—a gamble of divine consciousness to corrupt the ghost spirit.

Instead, it transformed into an attack rooted in the opponent's soul.

Is it a soul attack method that can directly eliminate or annihilate the opponent's soul?

"Perhaps it's because the Black and White Ghosts are too weak?"

But there was a full three breaths in between.

Doesn't that mean my attack was extremely weak, and even the Black and White Ghosts could withstand it for three breaths?

This made Chen Yushu hesitate.

After thinking for a moment, he quickly used the same supernatural power again, aiming it at another black and white ghost.

Without a sound, his attack landed directly on the black and white ghosts dozens of feet away.

The opponent, seemingly unaware of the approaching attack, was still wandering around in a daze.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

After three breaths.

Just like the previous black and white ghost, the entire soul body vanished silently and completely.

"This……"

Chen Yushu immediately frowned.

It did indeed take three breaths.

Moreover, within three breaths after the opponent is hit by the spell, the opponent is unaware and does not suffer any harm.

In other words, his spell may be powerful, but it has a certain lag.

"Even so."

However, this is, after all, a supernatural technique. Although it differs somewhat from true soul corruption, it can indeed cause real damage to the enemy's soul.

Let's rename it "Annihilation of the Soul" for now.

Chen Yushu thought to himself and quickly gave his supernatural ability a new name.

The annihilation of the soul.

The reason why the name "Soul Corruption Poison" is not used is naturally because he does not have the physical talent of the Corpse Demon and cannot add poison to this method; he can only cause simple damage to the soul.

While it can annihilate the soul silently and without a trace, its power is undeniable, despite the time lag.

Naming it after the annihilation of the soul is quite fitting.

"Besides the Soul Corruption Poison supernatural power, the number of spell rune structures that I have mastered that are compatible with Yin Yang True Fire has also increased to 232. I only need 36 more spell rune structures that are compatible with it before I can replicate it."

After comparing the two, Chen Yushu couldn't help but smile.

Yin-Yang True Fire is a rare type of supernatural power related to true fire.

It can be used not only in battle, but also plays a huge role in his alchemy and weapon crafting.

In terms of alchemy, needless to say, the higher the grade of the elixir, the higher the grade of the materials required, and the more difficult it is to refine.

First and second grade spirit fires are fine, but ordinary spirit fires are enough.

However, spiritual materials of grade three or higher often require mastery of true fire to smelt and extract useful elixir ingredients.

It can be said that mastering the true fire is equivalent to mastering the threshold of refining high-level elixirs.

In the realm of weapon crafting, true fire plays an even greater role.

In particular, if Chen Yushu wanted to refine his own unique natal magic weapon, he would face numerous difficulties without true fire.

Even some basic materials can only be smelted by external spiritual fire and earth fire, so it is naturally difficult to refine top-level magic weapons.

Although later, its quality can be continuously improved through refining with true fire.

However, if the foundation is not solid, the time and effort required for smelting and refining in the future will be much greater.

In particular, Chen Yushu now possesses a high-grade magic weapon flying sword, and the power of this flying sword is certainly not weak.

However, since it is not a unique natal magic weapon, it cannot be used as one's own arm and can only unleash up to 70% of its original power.

Even at 70% of its power, it's still quite formidable.

But as his strength grows, it will inevitably no longer be enough for him.

Therefore, he estimated that this magic weapon would ultimately only become his resources, which would be melted into his own natal magic weapon to enhance its power and foundation.

The reason why magical treasures are so rare in this world is largely due to this.

Most of the magical treasures were 'swallowed' by the cultivators' own magical treasures.

Only the truly powerful magical artifacts were able to survive.

It was only because the cultivators were reluctant to part with it, or because they lacked sufficiently powerful true fire to refine it, that it was able to be preserved.

Thirty-six spell rune structures are not many.

Chen Yushu believed that once he mastered all the remaining spells, the number of compatible spell rune structures would increase significantly once again.

Perhaps, it would be possible to completely replicate and master this innate talent.

"correct.

Besides the Yin-Yang True Fire, there is also the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light.

This is also a top-tier supernatural power.

It is a powerful supernatural ability created by Yuan Ci Zhenren, the junior brother of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master.

Unrivaled in conquest.

Once I master it, it will undoubtedly give my offensive capabilities a significant boost.

Chen Yushu silently compared and discovered that the rules required for the cultivation of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light were profound, totaling 198. Previously, he had mastered 176 spell rune structures that matched these rules. Now, as he cultivated more spells, the number of spell rune structures he mastered also increased significantly.

The corresponding spell rune structure has also increased from 176 to 191.

"One hundred and ninety-one spell rune structures match it."

This means I only need seven more compatible spell rune structures to completely replicate and master this Primal Magnetic Divine Light.

Thinking of this, Chen Yushu felt a surge of excitement.

To know.

Supernatural powers, especially true offensive supernatural powers, are not only difficult to acquire, but more importantly, difficult to learn and master.

This is true for any monk.

For example, the top-tier spell he previously mastered, the Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique.

For most cultivators who have entered the Dao realm, this is already an almost impossible spell to master. Some cultivators who believe they have a certain talent for lightning have spent three to five years, or even nearly ten years, without being able to truly master it.

This supernatural power is even more difficult to cultivate than the thunder technique.

Because any supernatural power is actually composed of a mysterious combination of rules. It's like a spell's rune structure, optimized to its ultimate form, returning to its original simplicity.

Even ordinary cultivators, including those at the Dao-entering Night Travel or Day Travel stages, would need to spend a significant amount of time to fully comprehend this.

According to Chen Yushu, it takes three to five days to fully understand the mysteries of a law; for an ordinary cultivator, it would take at least thirty to fifty days.

After all, his meditative state is constant, and his speed of comprehending the rules of heaven and earth is ten times that of cultivators who are in a constant meditative state.

One law is profound and requires thirty to fifty days; ten laws would take three to five hundred days.

Often, a single supernatural power involves more than a hundred profound laws, ranging from a little over a hundred to as many as two or three hundred...

If you calculate it carefully, it would take three to five thousand days, or ten to twenty years. "Fortunately."

My meditative state is high enough.

Fortunately, I found a simple method that allows me to comprehend the structure of magical runes, aligning with the profound principles of magic, and thus enabling me to unleash true supernatural powers in a simplified and refined way.

Chen Yushu sighed, a thought struck him, and he quickly immersed himself in cultivation once more.

He naturally wanted to master these two supernatural abilities as soon as possible.

Not only because it can enhance one's reading experience.

The improvement in his strength and abilities was also immense.

Fortunately, his mental strength is now powerful, which greatly extends the time he can spend entering the underworld using the technique of communicating with the underworld.

At the beginning, I could only stay for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but now I can stay for three to five hours without feeling any difficulty.

But before dawn the next day, Chen Yushu returned to the real world as soon as possible.

Although the underworld is a good place for cultivation.

But he lacked something essential for his cultivation.

That is the true light of the sun!
The true light of the sun is the most important thing for practitioners of Yin cultivation to remove Yin energy from their bodies.

It can fundamentally strengthen a cultivator's soul, enabling them to be unafraid of sunlight and freely soar and fight in the void during the day.

It can even travel to the heavens and enter the high-altitude clouds.

At that time, whether it's cultivation, learning cultivation techniques, or comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth, it will be much faster than in other places.

therefore.

After completing his daily routine of cultivation, Chen Yushu stood directly in the courtyard and began to cultivate the Nine Transformations Yang Technique!

As he cultivated, a massive amount of true sunlight surged toward him like a mighty river.

"what?

Why do I feel that my efficiency in absorbing and transforming the sun's true light has increased significantly compared to before?

Suddenly, Chen Yushu frowned, a look of surprise on his face.

Then he couldn't help but glance at the attribute panel.

Mastery of the Nine Transformations of Yang Technique (154/800)

Nothing has changed.

At this time, his Nine Transformations Yang Technique was still in its advanced stage.

There has been no breakthrough, and it will likely require at least some more time of arduous practice before reaching the next stage of perfection.

"correct.

Fragrant Jade Fruit!

The Jade Fragrance Spirit Fruit greatly increases my efficiency in absorbing and transforming the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

And this true sunlight, to some extent, is also a kind of spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and naturally, it will become easier to absorb because of my improved cultivation aptitude.

A look of realization quickly appeared on Chen Yushu's face.

I was truly overjoyed.

In fact.

Chen Yushu had always known that his aptitude for cultivation was not actually that strong.

It's even quite ordinary.

It was only because of his high level of meditative absorption that his comprehension far surpassed that of others, which naturally led to a rapid increase in his cultivation speed, gradually bridging and even surpassing the level of countless geniuses.

However, enlightenment, or the state of meditative absorption, is actually a state that everyone can cultivate and that everyone can reach.

For example, enlightenment!
Once a cultivator enters the realm of enlightenment, their cultivation speed will be unprecedentedly fast.

This doesn't mean their aptitude has changed, but rather that their meditative state has been forcibly elevated by a significant amount due to a certain special element.

Enlightenment is like a cultivator in a state of minor, major, or even constant meditation forcibly elevating their meditative state to a constant or even higher level within a short period of time.

This allows them to comprehend profound knowledge that was previously impossible to grasp in a short period of time, thus significantly increasing their cultivation speed and efficiency.

They might even use this to create merit or methods...

Of course, this state is not stable for those cultivators who have attained enlightenment.

Because they only forcibly enter this state for a short period of time, ranging from three to five minutes to ten days or half a month, they cannot remain in that meditative state after they come out of that state.

It is worth mentioning, however, that the state of meditative absorption can be achieved and improved.

On the contrary, one's aptitude for cultivation will not improve with the advancement of meditative states.

The only way to promote improvement is through external forces, rare and precious materials, or a special technique.

Now, thanks to the Cui Xiang spiritual fruit, Chen Yushu's cultivation aptitude has been improved, and naturally, his cultivation efficiency has also increased.

This includes the effects of practicing the Nine Transformations Yang Technique.

“So.

It's actually quite possible that I can remove a large amount of the yin energy from my soul in a short period of time, thereby increasing the true yang energy of the sun within my body to over 40%.

in this way.

Once my cultivation is fully developed, the possibility of breaking through to the Sun-Wandering Realm will greatly increase.

Chen Yushu sighed inwardly, then quickly focused his mind and entered into cultivation once more.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

One stick of incense, two sticks of incense, three sticks of incense...

time flies.

Chen Yushu continuously accumulated the true light of the sun and then integrated it into his divine soul.

As the continuous stream of true sunlight poured in, the originally dense yin energy within his soul began to be gradually dispelled and expelled.

A warm, cozy feeling, like the heat of a furnace, emanated from Chen Yushu.

But he himself did not feel the slightest bit of heat.

It even has a warm, cozy feeling, as if you were in the womb.

I felt incredibly relaxed and at ease.

in this way.

Until the sun sets.

Chen Yushu stopped only after the originally thick sunlight gradually thinned out.

The next two days.

This is all the case.

During the day, Chen Yushu would practice the Nine Transformations Yang Technique in the open space of the courtyard, continuously absorbing the true light of the sun and pure Yang energy to dispel the Yin energy in his soul. At night, he would enter the Netherworld to practice various spells and increase the number of his spell runes.

This also increases the number of times the rules and runes of the supernatural powers he has mastered match.

In order to more quickly and thoroughly copy and master more supernatural techniques.

at last.

As the third day passed in the middle of the night.

Chen Yushu finally mastered the last spell completely, and naturally advanced it to the minor completion stage... (End of this chapter)
