My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 81 Success
Enhancing one's spiritual power can accelerate the progress of spell cultivation.

at this point,
This conclusion was drawn by Shen Changchuan after observing the record of Shen Tingchu's cultivation experience and comparing it with his own practice of sword light techniques.

In the jade slip that Shen Tingchu gave him,

It is recorded that, before advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, if possible, cultivating only a few protective techniques is sufficient.

There's no need to waste too much time on spells.

Because the low-level spells that can be cultivated during the Qi Refining stage are weak, they will not play any role in the battles of high-level cultivators in the future, and it is a complete waste of energy.

Moreover, after advancing to the Nascent Soul realm, one can easily master any basic spell by spending a few days cultivating it to perfection.

In contrast, it is pointless to spend countless hours practicing day and night in the Qi Refining stage to perfect the basic spells.

Instead of wasting time pursuing perfection in basic spells, it's better to focus that time on improving one's cultivation level.

As for spells, enough is fine.

Shen Tingchu said,

Naturally, these are the golden words of wisdom he gained from summarizing his own cultivation and after entering the Out-of-Body Realm.

If other cultivators at the Qi Refining stage saw this sentence in Shen Tingchu's jade slip, they would also regard it as profound wisdom and diligently follow it.
This is because it comes from the insights of those who have reached the transcendental state, whom they can only look up to.

It's never wrong to follow in the footsteps of those who have succeeded.

As for why cultivators can quickly master basic spells at the perfect level after advancing to the Nascent Soul stage,

Shen Tingchu did not say.

It's estimated that other cultivators wouldn't be interested either.

Because in the feudal era's concept of cultivating immortality, there was no tradition of getting to the bottom of things.

Just like apples fall down, clouds float in the sky.

These are all common sense things.

As for why this is the case,
No one would bother thinking about these boring and useless questions.

But Shen Changchuan, whose soul clearly came from another world, was an exception.

Moreover, due to the imminent and urgent threat that is about to be faced.

As he struggled to find a way out, he discovered something amiss.

Why are cultivators able to quickly master a basic spell to perfection after reaching the Out-of-Body realm?
The answer is—the soul!
A powerful spiritual force allows one to easily perceive and control the flow of magical power when casting spells, clearly understanding the magical power path and composition of the spell itself.

Once you fully understand this, your proficiency will naturally improve rapidly.

Just like when you've memorized a question and its answer perfectly,
When you encounter the same question again, the answer will almost instantly appear in your mind!
This was precisely what Shen Changchuan learned from Shen Tingchu's jade slip of experience.

After discovering that the sentence contained some information about magical cultivation,

After careful consideration and thorough summarization, combined with the rapid improvement in sword light technique over the past few days,
The final conclusion was reached after analysis and summarization!

This confirmed one thing for him.

That is, the stronger one's spiritual power, the faster one's proficiency in spell cultivation will increase!

originally,

This discovery is actually not very significant.

This is because the growth of spiritual power is often accompanied by the advancement of cultivation level.

However, they wanted to find other ways to increase their spiritual power.

Its difficulty is immense.
This is far more significant than directly increasing one's cultivation level!

However, Shen Changchuan had recently consumed the Biyuan Water Grass, and his spiritual power was comparable to that of a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator.

After taking the Biyuan Jingling Pill, his cultivation aptitude improved, and his spiritual power also increased further.
especially,
Not long ago, the old ghost Song, whom he had killed, gave him a secret technique that could temper and enhance the power of the soul.

With favorable timing, location, and people, Shen Changchuan naturally did not hesitate at all and immediately began this attempt.

then,

And that's why we've had these past few days...
The scene of him diligently cultivating the Nine Elements Spirit Gathering Technique.

【.
Secret Technique: Nine Elements Divine Essence Gathering Technique
】

Shen Changchuan lowered his head.
His gaze fell upon the semi-transparent light screen before him.

Below the spell bar of the light screen,
A new section for secret techniques has been added.

The Nine Elements Divine Gathering Technique was listed alone at the back, forming a stark contrast with the densely packed spell categories above.

Moreover, unlike magic,
In the section on secret techniques,
There's no progress bar displayed afterward, and it seems there aren't any completion-related features or anything like that.

This seems rather strange.

"But that seems normal. Secret techniques are methods to enhance oneself, and they are completely different from spells."

"If spells are like active skills in a game, then the secret technique of the Nine Elements Divine Essence is undoubtedly a passive skill."

"No progress bar is normal."

A thought flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.
I didn't pay much attention to it.

The most important thing right now is
I still need to make sure my guess is correct!

Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan stood up.
They walked towards the entrance of the Spirit Spring Secret Chamber.

Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
A day and a half later,

The square in the hillside courtyard of Dawancun Village.

Shen Changchuan stood in the open space,

He flicked his hand forward casually.
A flash of white sword light appeared, like a bolt of lightning flickering in the cracks of space, disappearing in an instant, leaving only a series of afterimages in the eyes of onlookers.
In the blink of an eye, it traversed more than ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) and silently disappeared into a nearby artificial hill.

The air was completely silent.
It was as if nothing had happened.

however,
After several breaths,

The upper left corner of the entire artificial hill, more than a quarter of it, slid down directly from a height!
A quarter of the artificial hill rolled to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

And in the original place,

The artificial mountain, several meters high, had one corner cut off!
At the incision site,

Smooth as a mirror!

at the same time,

Shen Changchuan, who was standing not far away, also showed an undisguised look of joy.

It worked!
In just a day and a half,
The sword light technique, which was originally only at 50% progress, has now reached perfection!
【.
Sword Light: 100% (Perfect Trait: Slight increase in spell power, negligible sword system)

】

On the progress bar panel,

A perfect-level spell has an extra line added.

This,

This also means that,

There is a high probability that Shen Changchuan will be able to master the Azure Wood Sword Light before the unexpected happens, thus gaining the ability to protect himself in the chaos!
and,

For him,
Perhaps this is just the beginning!
Right now,

Shen Changchuan almost couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The pent-up emotions that had been building up inside me vanished at that moment!
