Chapter 243 Cultivation World 32
Three months passed in this way, and cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above came to the Chaos Star Palace to purchase talismans.

Si Lingyue thought to herself: It wasn't for nothing that she sold the talisman cheaply; it finally attracted a high-level cultivator.

According to Si Lingle's inquiries, only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above have recommendation slots and can recommend cultivators at the Golden Core stage or above to enter the Chaos Star Palace.

Of course, even if you are recommended, you still need to pass the Chaos Star Palace's assessment. If you fail, you cannot join.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye. Zi Yi Zhenjun, who often came to Si Lingle to buy talismans, asked in a telepathic message: "Fellow Daoist Nan Chu, would you like to join the Chaos Star Palace?"

"Of course I do."

"I can use my recommendation quota to recommend you to take the assessment," True Monarch Ziyi transmitted. "After you pass, you will need to transfer 5,000 contribution points to me within ten years."

"Contribution points? How do I get them?"

"You can earn contribution points by completing sect missions." True Monarch Ziyi wanted something, but it required exchanging contribution points for it.

In the Chaos Star Palace, contribution points are more valuable than spirit stones.

"I'll think about it."

Zi Yi Zhenjun thought Si Lingle would agree immediately, and the enthusiastic expression on her face slightly subsided. "I will give you one day to consider. After one day, I will give this recommendation spot to someone else."

"it is good."

After Ziyi Zhenjun left, Si Lingle thought for a moment, then took out the communication talisman given to her by Zhao San and contacted Li Chuan.

Half an hour later, Li Chuan arrived at Tai Zhen Restaurant in Dongcheng District.

"Li Chuan greets Senior." Li Chuan's cultivation level is at the early stage of Golden Core. His family has lived in Star City for generations. He is an inner disciple of the Chaos Star Palace. He has three spiritual roots, but his spiritual root aptitude is average.

Although he was an inner disciple, he did not have a master.

"sit."

After Li Chuan sat down, Si Lingle got straight to the point, saying, "I'd like to ask you about something. Do you know anything about the contribution points of the Chaos Star Palace?"

After learning the reason, Li Chuan said, "Senior, this deal is not very worthwhile. The contribution points for a mission in the Chaos Star Palace are not high. Five thousand contribution points will be earned within ten years. I'm afraid you will be busy with missions for the next ten years and will not have any time to cultivate."

Although cultivators have long lifespans, ten years is like the blink of an eye.

However, some tasks, if not completed, will result in a deduction of spirit stones.

Therefore, Li Chuan felt that it was somewhat unfair of the True Lord to want to contribute points.

"Senior, do you wish to join the Chaos Star Palace?"

"I do have that thought. Being a sect disciple is better than being a rogue cultivator." Mainly, she wanted to see the cultivation techniques of the Chaos Star Palace, the books related to the Four Arts, and learn some things unique to this world.

Li Chuan said, "Senior, I'll inquire about this for you. I'll see if I can find some Nascent Soul True Monarchs and use spirit stones to buy recommendation slots."

“Okay.” Si Lingle nodded.

"Eat something."

After they ate, Si Lingle gave Li Chuan a bottle of Zengyuan Pills.

Zengyuan Pill: A spiritual pill suitable for use during the Core Formation stage to enhance cultivation.

Li Chuan happily accepted the Enhancing Essence Pill and teleported back to his sect.

Upon returning to his sect, Li Chuan went back to Feilai Peak, where he became an inner disciple.

Li Chuan contacted True Lord Shanxing via telepathy. He had previously done sect missions with True Lord Shanxing.

He's a decent person and treats his juniors very well.

Li Chuan chatted with True Lord Xingshan for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, and True Lord Xingshan agreed to sell recommendation slots for 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Li Chuan contacted Si Lingle and told her to meet him at Guanglan Restaurant in Fangshi at 9:00 AM the next day.

The next day, Si Lingle arrived at Guanglan Restaurant ahead of time and booked a private room.

At 9:00 AM, Li Chuan and the Good Deeds True Lord arrived together.

After meeting, True Lord Shanxing said frankly, "Fellow Daoist, I am only responsible for the recommendation, not for your entry into the sect."

“I know.” Si Lingle nodded.

"If you fail the test, don't go around saying that I took your spirit stones."

"If you're worried, fellow Daoist, shall we swear an oath to each other against our inner demons?"

“Alright.” Good Deeds True Lord nodded.

The two then made a vow to overcome their inner demons.

After making the oath to her inner demons, Si Lingle took out a storage bag. After the Benevolent True Lord checked it with his divine sense and confirmed that it contained 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, he accepted the storage bag.

After exchanging telepathic messages, Shanxing Zhenjun and Li Chuan left.

Si Lingle also contacted Ziyi Zhenjun telepathically and declined her recommendation.

Upon receiving the message, True Monarch Ziyi was somewhat displeased. The fact that she was recommended for a spot was already a sign of respect for her.

They actually refused; they really don't know what's good for them.

Two days later, Si Lingle received a telepathic message from the Good Deeds True Lord, instructing her to go to the Chaos Star Palace gate at Chenshi (7-9 AM) the next day, where he would take her to the assessment point.

"Fellow Daoist Nan Chu, this is the assessment hall. Please go in by yourself."

"it is good."

Si Lingle took the recommendation token and entered the assessment hall.

First, Si Lingle's spiritual root and aptitude were tested. After the test, she entered the assessment stage.

Because Si Lingle was a talisman master, the test was on talismans. She drew a fourth-level talisman on the spot and passed the test.

Si Lingle felt that the assessment of the Chaos Star Palace was far too easy.

It passed so easily.

Si Lingle was unaware that after the Benevolent True Lord made the recommendation, the Chaos Star Palace Enforcement Peak investigated Si Lingle's information.

Even her past membership in the Changsheng Sect was discovered through investigation.

The Chaos Star Palace didn't care about her leaving the Changsheng Gate.

She didn't betray the Longevity Palace, and the Longevity Palace didn't send anyone to hunt her down, which means there must have been other reasons for her leaving.

The Chaos Star Palace wouldn't delve into the reasons behind this; as long as it was proven that the person had no major problems and was useful, the Chaos Star Palace would accept them into its palace.

Si Lingle was led to complete the entry registration, where she received sect uniforms and an identity token.

She was assigned to Wanfu Peak.

Upon arriving at Wanfu Peak, Si Lingle was handed over to the steward of Wanfu Peak.

The steward of Wanfu Peak opened a magical artifact, which revealed the empty cave dwellings on Wanfu Peak. "True Lord, please choose a cave dwelling."

Si Lingle glanced at it and chose cave number 620.

After the selection was made, the steward registered it, and Cave No. 620 changed color to green.

It was red when no one lived there, and turned green after people moved in.

Si Lingle went to Cave 620 on her own. When she arrived, the cave was overgrown with weeds.

Si Lingle used her magic to clean up the entrance to the cave.

After cleaning up, Si Lingyue went back into the cave.

This cave dwelling even has a small spiritual spring, and a third-tier jade lotus is planted in the spring.

It seems to have been planted by the former owner of the cave.

Si Lingle used her magic to clean the cave. After cleaning, she took out an array plate and set up a restriction array to prevent others from entering.

She also planted some spiritual plants outside the cave. After tidying up, Si Lingle went for a stroll.

Si Lingle went directly to the mission hall to accept a mission.

To visit the Transmission Peak and read the cultivation manuals, one must have at least fifty contribution points.

Disciples who have not contributed any points to the Star Palace are not allowed to access many things.

Si Lingle arrived at the main peak mission hall and checked the missions; there were more than 20,000 missions.

Some tasks are ongoing.

For tasks such as alchemy, weapon crafting, talisman drawing, and array plate inscription, you can obtain materials from the sect.

The specified amount of pills and talismans must be submitted within the stipulated time.

These items were exchanged for other disciples.

Si Lingle received the talisman and then returned to her cave to draw it.

A month later, Si Lingle went to hand in her task.

The manager of the mission hall was somewhat surprised when he saw the rank of the talisman drawn by Si Lingle. When did the sect get another talisman master, and at such a high rank?

Si Lingle's talismans are all of the fifth rank of superior grade, and there are also dozens of sixth rank ones.

Si Lingle is capable of drawing seventh-order talismans, but she is currently hiding her cultivation level, so she doesn't want to be high-profile.

It's always best to keep a low profile.

Si Lingle earned 650 donation points in one month.

The main reason is that she received a fifth-tier talisman quest, which required her to collect 500 sets of materials. For every 100 sets of materials, she needed to submit 90 talismans, of which at least 50% had to be of superior quality.

One hundred materials constitute one task, and one task yields one hundred and fifty contribution points, which is quite a good amount.

The main reason is that in this world, the skills of cultivators in the Four Arts are not passed on to outsiders, unlike in later generations where everyone can learn the skills of the Four Arts, and most cultivators, after majoring in one of the Four Arts, will also choose one of the Four Arts to study.

Therefore, the four arts tasks contribute a lot of points, unlike other tasks which contribute fewer points.

With the contribution points, Si Lingle went to the library on Chuan Gong Peak.

Si Lingle stood in front of the library, looking up at the magnificent building.

The nine-story pavilion pierced the clouds, each floor shimmering with different restrictive lights, from the light gray of the bottom floor to the purple-gold of the top floor, representing the storage areas for different levels of cultivation techniques.

“Token.” The voice of Elder Mo Cangzi, who guarded the tower, came from the shadows, hoarse like sandpaper being rubbed.

Si Lingle bowed respectfully and took out a jade pendant from her sleeve.

"New disciples can receive a cultivation technique for free. Nascent Soul stage cultivators can consult books below level five. To copy, contribution points are required."

"Thank you, elder, for informing me."

Stepping into the first floor of the library, you are greeted by a rich aroma of books and the scent of sacred wood.

Hundreds of sandalwood bookshelves were neatly arranged, each book and jade slip protected by a faint light shield.

A few outer disciples wandered among the bookshelves, but upon seeing Si Lingle's Daoist robe, they immediately averted their gaze.

This is a Nascent Soul True Monarch; these Qi Refining disciples dare not provoke him.

The first floor contains basic cultivation techniques used during the Qi Refining stage, but Si Lingle still used her divine sense to scan it to see if there were any special basic cultivation techniques.

However, after scanning the area, nothing caught my eye.

Si Lingle walked straight to the stairs leading to the second floor. Her fingertips lightly brushed against the restriction on the handrail, and the jade tablet glowed slightly, causing the restriction to separate like ripples on water.

The second floor had significantly fewer cultivation techniques, but each one emanated a stronger spiritual energy fluctuation. She glanced at them as well, but finding none she wanted, she continued upwards.

……

……

Once you get to the fifth floor, the space is half the size of the lower floors, with only thirty-two bookshelves arranged in a circle.

When Si Lingle checked with her divine sense, a tattered jade slip flew out and flew towards her like a streak of cyan light.

"This is.?"

The streak of light circled three times in the air before suddenly shooting towards Si Lingle like a bird flying into the forest.

Si Lingle instinctively raised her hand to cover herself, but felt a chill in her palm. A jade slip, entirely blue-green in color, was lying quietly in her hand.

The surface of the jade slip is covered with flowing water ripples, and faint green vine patterns can be seen growing and intertwining among the water ripples.

"The Taiyi Qingming Technique." Five ancient seal characters appeared in her mind the moment she touched the jade slip.

Immediately afterwards, a massive amount of information flooded into his consciousness like a burst dam. Si Lingle groaned, his temples throbbing.

The jade slip trembled slightly in her palm, emitting a soft, bluish-green glow.

The halo seemed to have a life of its own, spreading along her arm and quickly enveloping her entire body.

Elder Mo Cangzi, the guardian of the pavilion, had appeared at the top of the stairs at some unknown time. His white hair was flying wildly, and his eyes were gleaming with a sharp light. The old man's withered fingers formed a hand seal, and a beam of golden light shot towards the jade slip in Si Lingle's hand.

The azure aura suddenly surged, repelling all the golden light. Mo Cangzi staggered backward, his old face filled with shock: "The Spirit Slip Choosing a Master is actually the Spirit Slip Choosing a Master!"

The light on the jade slip in Si Lingle's hand gradually faded. "Elder, this jade slip..."

Mo Cangzi raised his hand to interrupt, letting out a long sigh, "Do you know what you hold in your hand?"

Si Lingyue shook her head. The jade slip was slightly warm in her palm, as if protesting that she was being slighted.

"The *Taiyi Qingming Technique*, passed down from the ancient Qingming Water Palace, is a supreme cultivation method created specifically for those with a symbiotic relationship between water and wood spiritual roots," Mo Cangzi said in a deep voice. "Ten thousand years ago, during the great war between good and evil, the lineage of the Water Palace was severed, and this jade slip also lost its spiritual power. I never expected that today..."

The old man suddenly took a step closer, his withered fingers almost poking Si Lingle's nose: "This cultivation technique involves a great deal of karma! The Qingming Water Mansion made countless enemies back then. If you cultivate this technique, you will surely be coveted in the future!"

Si Lingle held the jade slip and smiled, "With such an opportunity before us today, how can we back down out of fear of cause and effect? ​​Even if there are enemies, we will cut them down no matter how many come!"

She is not a vegetarian!
Mo Cangzi remained silent for a long time before finally shaking his head and saying, "Forget it. Since the spirit tablet has already recognized its master, we cannot force it." He took out a black jade tablet from his sleeve and handed it to Si Lingle. "Remember, you must not tell anyone about what happened today, or you will be in danger."

Si Lingle respectfully accepted the jade tablet and found that it was engraved with the character "墨" (Mo), clearly indicating that it was an elder's token.

As Si Lingyue left the library, the setting sun dyed the sea of ​​clouds golden red. Standing on the thousand stone steps, she looked back and saw a fleeting blue shadow flash past the window of the highest floor of the pavilion.

Back in her cave, Si Lingle immediately activated the protective array. She sat cross-legged on the futon and took out the jade slip.

At night, the water ripples and vine patterns on the surface of the jade slip become clearer, and tiny runes can be vaguely seen flowing between the water and wood patterns.

"The Taiyi Qingming Technique." Si Lingyue called softly, and the jade slip once again glowed with azure light. This time, the information transmission was much gentler, like a gentle stream nourishing her consciousness.

This technique emphasizes "water nourishing wood, wood securing the source of water." During practice, one must draw upon the spiritual energy of water and wood in the world to create a continuous cycle within the body.

Si Lingle originally practiced the "All Things Technique" because there is a saying that water gives birth to all things!
Taoism believes that the basic element constituting the universe is not concrete water, but the metaphysical "Heavenly One True Water".

This innate true water is formless and intangible, yet it contains the vitality of creation. It is both the first product of the chaos that differentiated at the beginning of heaven and earth and the energy carrier for the generation of all things.

The Hetu diagram in the Book of Changes begins with "Heaven generates water," symbolizing that the universe originated from the element of water, and then differentiated into other five elements.
In the cultivation system, cultivators can trace back to the origin of life and align with the way of creation of heaven and earth by refining the innate true qi in kidney water (belonging to water).

Within the framework of the Five Elements' mutual generation, water nourishes wood (plant growth), wood generates fire (energy release), fire transforms earth (material precipitation), earth solidifies metal (mineral formation), and metal regenerates water (liquid cycle).

Therefore, this "All Things Cultivation Method" is in harmony with Si Lingle's dual spiritual roots of water and wood.

In addition, Si Lingle also cultivated the "Azure Sea and Green Wood Technique".

Several cultivation methods, such as "Yi Wood Longevity Technique" and "Green Wood Transformation Technique," are auxiliary cultivation methods.

Cultivating the Myriad Things Technique allows one to unleash the Great Evolution Transformation Technique, which grants temporary access to all things in heaven and earth as weapons, but it also accelerates the depletion of one's lifespan.

Si Lingle has not yet used this technique.

Cultivating the "Azure Wood Transformation Technique" can nurture spiritual plants, allowing one to absorb the enemy's life force in battle through the "Dead Wood Comes Back to Life" secret technique.

Each cultivation method produces different spells, and it's unknown what spells one can cast by cultivating the "Taiyi Qingming Technique".
