Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 494 Heavenly Mirror Reflects Human Shadows

“Then I’ll definitely choose the double-bodied form,” Chu Danqing said without hesitation.

Resources possess the power of three pills and a hundred herbs; no matter how many brilliant-level inherited skills there are, they are merely superficial injuries to it.

As for the difficulty? With the precious Arhat relic and Li Qingying's Wonderful Sound Celestial Maiden Martial Appearance, Chu Danqing had everything he needed.

"The meaning of the dual-body form is that it consists of a bright king and a bright consort." Li Qingying began to explain this part of the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill to Chu Danqing.

The park's reminders also continued.

By the time she finished speaking, Chu Danqing's Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill had reached Level 2.

The reason for such rapid progress is threefold: firstly, the level is low; secondly, the other party is familiar with the technique; and thirdly, the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill that Chu Danqing learned is an incomplete version.

"As for how to make the Martial Prime Minister conform to his own wishes, his beliefs also play a role," Li Qingying said. "For example, if you want to protect Brother Chu, you need to strengthen your belief."

"The reason is very simple, but most people don't know it. After all, most beginners practice martial arts just for the sake of practicing."

"But it is precisely because of this that different martial arts masters emerge."

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing understood that having a martial arts treasure trove by one's side was indeed a different story.

"So that's how your Myriad Sounds Celestial Maiden Form came about?" Chu Danqing asked.

Li Qingying nodded: "Yes, the Western Long Kingdom needs a martial arts master like me who is well-versed in all schools of thought."

Chu Danqing shamelessly said, "We really need someone like you."

"I think," Chu Danqing said, taking the opportunity to bring up the matter of the alliance.

Li Qingying hesitated. She could tell that Chu Danqing valued her, but Ke Chun treated her like a younger sister.

Following Chu Danqing was certainly a good thing. The two weeks from leaving the palace to Zijin Mountain were the happiest two weeks of her life.

Back in the palace, I spent my days either reading or practicing martial arts, but practicing martial arts didn't actually improve my abilities.

If life could be like this forever, that wouldn't be so bad, but the end result of her hard work studying and practicing martial arts every day was that she ended up getting married.

Although this was the duty she was obligated to fulfill as a recipient of royal rights.

She will not shirk the responsibilities that are hers to bear; she will return to them sooner or later.

That's why he 'coerced' Chu Danqing into taking her out to see the world.

“You can live a different life,” Chu Danqing said. “The Xilong royal family needs a top expert to oversee things; there’s no need to look for anyone else.”

"You can be the expert yourself."

"When the time comes, my fists will be able to dominate the world, and I might even be able to sit on the throne."

“My friends are very experienced in this matter. I’ll introduce them to you in a few days,” Chu Danqing said honestly.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingying was both amused and exasperated.

This doesn't sound quite right.

“I’m a woman, how can I be the emperor?” Li Qingying said speechlessly.

“Alright, if that doesn’t work, a regency is fine too. Anyway, one of my friends has managed to sideline the emperor and become a powerful minister. I can teach you about that.” Chu Danqing thought it wasn’t impossible.

Finding a true outlaw like him is indeed difficult.

But when it comes to stories of insubordination, usurpation of power, absolute authority, and imperial tactics, I guarantee it's based on firsthand experience and insightful guidance.

Given the amplification effect of Li Qingying's cultivation, everyone is willing to personally lend a hand when trouble arises.

Its status and position make it perfectly capable of being ranked second among mascots.

The number one mascot is Chu Danqing.

"Brother Chu, are your friends... proper?" Li Qingying felt something was off.

Chu Danqing thought for a moment, then said, "Of course, a respectable person."

Everyone here has a legitimate job; none of us are just coasting along.

"Just be serious. Next time we meet, I'll continue to teach you the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill, Brother Chu." Li Qingying was willing, but she still missed the kindness of the Western Long Kingdom in raising her.

So it depends on how Chu Danqing handles the marriage proposal.

If the matter is resolved properly, you can leave with him.

Chu Danqing didn't press further; these things couldn't be rushed.

As Li Qingying explained in more detail, the level of the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill kept jumping up and down.

Logically, such a high-quality inherited skill should have a level cap of 40.

However, Chu Danqing's Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill became MAX after reaching level 10.

That's normal, though. Level 40 is the full version, but the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill he learned only has the Martial Aspect and no other attribute or effect bonuses.

The content for level 40 has been reduced to only level 10.

Therefore, it's faster to level up when you're at a low level.

“It’s perfect,” Chu Danqing suddenly said.

Li Qingying looked puzzled: "You understand everything?"

“Yes, I understand everything,” Chu Danqing said.

He not only had the bonus from the Heavenly Maiden of Wonderful Sounds, but he also unlocked the active skill Prajna Wisdom of the Arhat Relic of the Precious Pearl, further increasing his cultivation efficiency by 100%.

It's normal to be quick. "I'll condense my martial aura first," Chu Danqing said again.

Li Qingying nodded this time and didn't say anything to disturb Chu Danqing.

The way the dual-body form is condensed is quite unique.

You can gather your chaotic thoughts into the shadow to make it take shape, while constantly reinforcing your belief in the type of martial appearance you want to acquire.

The cultivation of the other 107 martial forms is actually similar, except that the shadows are not infused with chaotic thoughts, but with other different things.

In the "Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill," the character "鉴" (jiàn) not only means mirror, but also has the meanings of luster and reflection.

When the light from the sky shines on a person, that is their shadow.

It is precisely because of this unconventional approach that the martial form can be further shaped and evolved after it has taken shape.

As distracting thoughts are injected, the shadow begins to appear artificially distorted and turbulent.

Half an hour later, Chu Danqing noticed the birth of the Martial Phase, but something seemed amiss.

"Failed? No, it seems like they succeeded." Li Qingying leaned over and glanced at Chu Danqing's shadow.

The military strategy succeeded, but it did not fully take shape.

Chu Danqing glanced at the panel.

【Martial Spirit - Dual Form (Active/Passive) LV.MAX: Embryonic Stage - Permanent Summon (Martial Spirit - Guardian Type)】

(Note: The current Wu Xiang is in the embryonic stage and needs to be fed daily until it is fully formed.)
(Note: Once your Martial Form is fully formed, you will lose the inherited skill: Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill and all its derivative skills.)
(Note: Derivative skills must be learned before the Martial Form is fully developed; otherwise, they will be unlearnable after the formation is complete.)
(Note: During the development period of the martial spirit, please ensure that the martial spirit is adequately nourished to avoid failure to develop due to malnutrition.)
(Note: If the formation fails, you will not be able to learn the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill a second time or obtain the Martial Aspect.)

Chu Danqing breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the inherited skill; this was indeed a good thing.

"It was a success. Because I'm special, Wu Xiang was raised from a young age." Chu Danqing said, and then took the opportunity to learn the Wuxiang Mystic Technique that he had previously taken from the corpse of the Snow Owl Monster.

Compared to the learning conditions of the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill, the learning conditions of the Formless Wonderful Method were much lower, so Chu Danqing learned it directly.

The moment he started learning, he reached MAX level. The shadow instantly thickened and then, under Li Qingying's gaze, transformed into a bizarre shape resembling a slime.

This startled Li Qingying: "Brother Chu, you've mastered the Formless Mystic Technique???"

Li Qingying naturally also knew the Formless Mystic Technique, and her Wonderful Sound Heavenly Maiden Martial Form also had a physical form.

It wasn't surprising that Chu Danqing could learn it; what was truly surprising was how she learned it.
He didn't even look at it.

"I had already seen it before. All that was missing was the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill and the Martial Appearance. With your Wonderful Sound Heavenly Maiden Martial Appearance, you were able to master it all at once," Chu Danqing said after organizing the knowledge in his mind.

He can't exactly say he learned the skill by simply clicking on a skill book, can he?

And because this skill was initially at MAX level, he reached the maximum level as soon as he learned it?

So he quickly changed the subject and asked, "How many wonderful techniques and mental scriptures are there that accompany the Heavenly Mirror Divine Skill?"

“My grandma said there are nine levels in total,” Li Qingying said. “But there’s one level I haven’t learned yet, and my grandma refuses to teach me no matter what I say, I don’t know why.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing asked, "Do you have the original?"

If you have a skill book, it's definitely easier to use the skill book.

“Yes, my grandma said there’s a library in the back, which not only contains these Ninefold Divine Mysteries, but also a number of martial arts manuals from various sects and masters of the martial arts world,” Li Qingying said immediately.

After saying that, he led the way with a proud look, saying, "Come on, I'll take you to see it, Brother Chu."

How can I put it? It's truly a case of a son selling his father's land without a second thought.

He actually took Chu Danqing to see it.

This brought a smile to Chu Danqing's face. He could take two brilliant-level inherited skills back to sell, and then he would have a place to settle his future resources.

It seems this trial world is a breeding ground for inherited skills.

However, it also has limitations, mainly producing martial arts-themed inherited skills.

Chu Danqing, being a summoner, seemed out of place.

Fortunately, it's alright, as long as Chu Danqing benefits.

Wuxia (martial arts) genres are popular, and as long as the quality is good, there's no worry about sales.

The three of them made their way through a maze of turns to the library, only to find empty bookshelves with not a single book in sight.

"Someone beat me to it!" Li Qingying's expression changed.

She rushed forward, taking three steps at a time. The bookshelf was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Chu Danqing followed suit and looked at the bookshelves, where labels were pasted on them. He followed his gaze to those labels.

Nanzhao Chongsheng Temple: lacks the Six Yang Melting Snow Skill, the Nine Meridians Formless Divine Qi, and the Ten Directions Wandering Dragon Step (only the Southeast Step is available).

Donglin Fengyun Gang: Missing the Four Heavens Boundless Technique and the Dragon Tiger Great Stance Skill (only the first three forms of the Tiger Stance are available).

Beishuo Tianlang Academy: Lacking the Heavenly Wolf Howling at the Moon Classic, the Golden Eagle Chasing the Sun Classic, and the Nine Arrows with the Wind (only the first arrow form is available).

The first few shelves are mostly missing a lot, and even if they are there, they only have one or two features.

The main problem is that these are all major powers with numerous powerful figures, so it's unrealistic to expect to obtain these sect-specific cultivation techniques.

The labels for the smaller and medium-sized forces that follow don't have as many omissions. Even if there are omissions, it's only noted that one or two techniques are missing.

However, the quality is estimated to be between excellent and superb, and it's not impossible that it could even be of the outstanding level.

High-quality inherited skills are not easy to obtain.
