Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

The black bird flies and the rabbit runs:

Since planting the Misty Grass, Wang Quan has been sitting upright on the mountain day and night.

As the Misty Grass grew, its effect of calming the mind and reducing desires intensified, allowing him to imprint two or three Daoist runes every day.

During the rest of the day, he reads Taoist scriptures, and at night he gathers moonlight to practice magic. Every hour, he also casts a spell to promote the growth of spiritual plants.

During this time, the female officiant approached him several times, asking him to make money by organizing weddings and funerals.

He politely declined each time, saying, "I'm practicing my magic!"

"We don't need the money right now, we'll talk about it later."

The master of ceremonies complained to the nun Meng Huan, "Wang Quan has become too rich and looks down on these paltry sums."

"In the end, it was still us two old sisters who relied on each other for survival!"

The Taoist nun chuckled, "I also practice magic, so I won't be involved in weddings or funerals for a while."

The master of ceremonies, a Taoist nun...

"If you don't work, will you have money? How will you live? How will you maintain your cultivation?"

The Dreamy Taoist Nun: "You're rich!"

The emcee, a Taoist nun, gasped in shock:

"When did you save up so much money?"

"Could she have mortgaged herself to someone else?!"

"Please don't do anything foolish!"

"None of those who mortgaged their bodies could be redeemed."

The Daoist nun shook her head: "It was all accumulated little by little over the years."

"I've calculated it. The money I've saved is enough for me to upgrade the [Nine Yin Sun Devouring] Technique to perfection."

"At that time... I will apply to the Lower House for a Foundation Establishment quota, and then prepare for Foundation Establishment."

The master of ceremonies, a Daoist nun, widened her eyes: "You're asking for Foundation Establishment slots in the lower courtyard?"

"Um!"

Normally, a cultivator only needs to condense a foundation-building spiritual light and meet some other basic conditions to complete the foundation-building process.

However, if you obtain a Foundation Establishment spot in the Lower House, the Lower House will provide you with a Foundation Establishment Aura.

At that time, you can use this foundation-building spiritual light to step into the foundation-building stage.

However, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, one must serve the Lower Court for three hundred years.

A normal Foundation Establishment cultivator lives for five hundred years.

Many people feel that it is not worth it to work for the lower house for three hundred years.

However, the dreamlike Taoist nun felt it was worth it.

The officiating nun frowned: "This is three hundred years of freedom!"

"Is it worth it for a Foundation Establishment stage?"

The Taoist nun nodded: "I think it's worth it!"

"My term in the Lower House is almost up. If I can't reach the Foundation Establishment stage, I'll be expelled."

"If I lose my status in the lower academy, I'll become a wild monk."

"If I go out and travel, those sects that are not orthodox Xuanmen, but unorthodox sects, will try every means to scheme against me."

"My fate will definitely be grim then."

"If I don't go out and walk around, and stay alone near the lower house, I can see my future clearly."

"I don't want to live that kind of life!"

"I want to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and even attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion and Golden Core stages."

The Taoist nun in charge of the ceremony sighed, "You could try the new approach."

"The foundation of the new law has a lifespan of three hundred years!"

"Three hundred years of carefree living would be enough!"

The Daoist nun shook her head: "When I was young, I sought immortality and studied six thousand volumes of Daoist scriptures. I thought I could go to a side path, but I ended up falling into the Drowning Path."

"I want to reach the next level!"

"I don't want to live a carefree and happy life for only three hundred years!"

"What's more... those guys from the new law, they can talk about spiritual roots, the system, and their rhetoric is quite sophisticated."

"The Foundation Establishment cultivators who are finally refined only have a slightly longer lifespan; in terms of spells and mana, they are not even as good as orthodox Qi Refining cultivators."

"This is all? And he calls himself a Foundation Establishment Ancestor?"

"How could I allow myself to degenerate?"

The master of ceremonies, a Taoist nun, sighed.

The things that the Dreamy Taoist nun encountered were exactly what she was about to face.

It's just that she had more Taoist scriptures at the time, so she got off to a faster start; now she is also accumulating wealth and refining her foundation-building spiritual light, giving her one more option than the Dreamy Taoist Nun.

Whether she can ultimately seize this extra choice remains to be seen.

As for the foundation-building ancestor of the new method... well... she declined to comment on that.

The dreamlike Taoist nun scattered green coins to purchase yang energy and frantically practiced magic.

Wang Quan was also practicing magic.

For a moment, the female officiant lost interest.

-----------------

End of January...

Wang Quan's [Yang nerve] is progressing rapidly.

This made him extremely happy.

"I thought it would take another two or three years to transform, but at this rate, it should only take a few months."

In March, the grass grows and the orioles fly, and all things revive.

The Daoist text on the 【Yang Shen Jing】 has reached 9800 characters.

Hope was within reach, and he was in a very good mood.

"In two or three months at most, I will be able to transform into a Yang God."

Moreover, at this moment, he finally gathered enough magic power to reach 1,001.

Originally, he thought that only after refining the Yang God could he refine the 1001st level of magical power.

As a result, they gathered enough magical power first, but hadn't yet created the Yang God.

But he wasn't in a hurry.

He felt he could get it done quickly.

July's scorching heat:

Wang Quan stared at the 9999 Daoist characters on the Yang Shen Jing and fell into deep thought.

He had been working on the last Dao inscription for over half a month, but still couldn't get it right.

At this moment, even with the suppression of the Misty Grass, the Yin Spirit's desire for transformation is growing stronger every day.

However, with each attempt, he felt he would soon be able to get it right.

And this month, the Dreamy Taoist Nun left him a message:

I need to go into seclusion for a period of time to attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

[Once you've reached Foundation Establishment, I'll invite you to a banquet tonight!]

Wang Quan had a good impression of the Dreamy Taoist Nun.

He responded immediately upon receiving the message: 【Smooth Foundation Building】

Dreamy Taoist Nun: [It must go smoothly].

With news of the Dreamy Daoist nun, Wang Quan was invigorated and once again focused his energy on refining the ten thousandth Daoist script.

Now, his magical powers are fully realized. After cleansing dozens of evil spirits in the Second World at night, he spends the rest of his time imprinting the ten thousandth Dao scripture.

In August, the ten thousandth Daoist inscription was finally imprinted on the Yin God.

The moment the swastika-shaped Daoist script appeared, black and gold lines emerged on his Yin spirit.

The patterns, like chains, like tattoos, like spider webs, cover the entire body.

The black and gold colors intertwine, one representing the "Yang nerve" and the other representing the "Yin nerve".

At this moment, even though he had not yet undergone transformation, Wang Quan felt that his Yin spirit could come out and walk during the day.

It is even possible to enter the second layer of the world during the day.

However, he dared not release the Yin spirit at all.

because:

His spirit is very different from the spirits of others.

During this time, he communicated with the cultivators of the second layer of the world. When those cultivators imprinted the ten thousand characters [Yang Shen Jing], their Yin spirits did not change at all.

Only when the transformation is complete will all sorts of wonders appear.

But now, the black and gold patterns appearing on his Yin spirit are clearly abnormal.

Therefore, even though he sensed that the Yin spirit could walk in the daytime, he would not release it.

Furthermore, he decided that he would never enter the second layer of the world until the abnormality in his Yin spirit disappeared or he transformed into a Yang spirit.

Although he didn't go in, he still managed to send a message inside using magic.

Tell those cultivators that he is in seclusion, so they won't overthink things.

After dealing with the trivial matters, he suppressed his desire for transformation and began to condense the 10,001st Dao Script.

That is, the last Dao script that can surpass the Supreme Yang God.
