Cultivating Immortality in Two Realms

Chapter 261 Supernatural Powers and Transformations

Announcement: Update coming soon, please stay tuned!

Jade Island.

Unwilling to give up, the renowned scholar Yuan Hongxu returned to the gate of Bihaimen.

"How hateful... that Core Formation female cultivator actually possesses a Void Treasure; it must have come from that secret realm..."

"That treasure can even be activated by a Core Formation cultivator. If it falls into my hands, where in the vast East Sea can't I go? What would I have to fear from the Xue family?"

Yuan Hongxu stared at the mountain gate, which was concealed by the array, his eyes filled with greed and resentment.

Back then, he lay in wait in the Little Universe Sea, gathering intelligence. He learned that this place was just a newly promoted mid-stage Core Formation cultivator from Taibai Island, and an early-stage Core Formation cultivator from Bihai Sect... but there was a secret realm there, and he immediately thought of taking it for himself.

Therefore, the first target is Taibai Island!

He possesses extraordinary treasures and has rich combat experience. He is confident that he can suppress a newly promoted mid-stage Core Formation cultivator, and may even kill him!

However, later reconnaissance revealed that the old ancestor Fang from Taibai Island had already gone on a trip, leaving only small fry. To avoid alerting the enemy, they let him go and turned their attention to Bihaimen instead.

But unexpectedly, such a big surprise was hidden among those remnants!

"Azure Sea Gate..."

"So be it, if I can't destroy it, I can't destroy it... As long as I occupy Tianxin Island, the next secret realm will be mine alone."

The skilled scholar was filled with resentment.

Just then, the void in front of him broke open, and a tall female cultivator walked out. It was Qin Ruxue!

"Haha, if you had just left, I wouldn't have been able to do anything to you. Now you dare to show your face before me?"

Overjoyed, Yuan Hongxu moved with incredible speed, taking out a scroll and casting a spell on it.

The scroll was as white as jade. When opened, it was blank, but a blazing aura of the sun rose up and transformed into a divine bird with outstretched wings, its magical power faintly reaching the late stage of Core Formation!

This was a "rare treasure" that he possessed, for which he did not hesitate to kill his old friend and severely offend the Xue family. He was hated by everyone in the cultivation world of the East Sea and had no choice but to flee to the countryside.

At the same time, it was also the basis on which he was confident in killing the "Old Ancestor Fang" who was in the middle stage of Core Formation.

Qin Ruxue remained expressionless and cast a talisman.

The talisman radiated countless rays of light, but after burning, only a calm voice rang out: "Yuan Hongxu dies here!"

The voice was calm and even, yet it seemed like a declaration of heaven and earth.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Hongxu still wore a cold smile, but for some reason, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He was in a daze, and before he knew it, he had pulled out a magical flying sword and held it to his neck.

The Fiery Sun Bird let out a mournful cry, turned around, and gently pecked at Yuan Hongxu with its beak!

"This is……"

"Backlash from a rare treasure?"

Yuan Hongxu firmly placed the sword against his neck, watching the divine bird peck at him. A bead of cold sweat appeared on his brow, and he seemed to be suffering from a split personality.

A voice screamed in his heart, but his hand resolutely swept across.

Glug!

His head rolled off the ground and was struck by the Fiery Sun Bird. His entire body was enveloped in a ball of 'Fiery Sun Flame' and instantly turned to ashes.

With a wave of her hand, Qin Ruxue retrieved the scroll treasure, along with the storage bag and flying sword, into her palm. Only then did she turn around and look at Cui Zhe inside the formation.

Cui Zhe was utterly dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

He saw that Qin Ruxue had somehow become a Core Formation cultivator, and then she took out a talisman. The arrogant and domineering Yuan Hongxu was reduced to ashes, and it was even said that he "committed suicide," which was quite outrageous!

"Could it be... that all of this is just a hallucination caused by inner demons?"

Cui Zhe suddenly felt that this small world of cultivation had suddenly turned into something he didn't recognize...

……

An unnamed deserted island.

Inside the cave.

The third-order spiritual energy gathered like clouds, and the Jade Spring flowed slowly.

Fang Qing, who was sitting cross-legged sensing supernatural powers, suddenly felt the wondrous effects of the talisman and couldn't help but open his eyes: "Dead? It's quite clean..."

He was originally born with the "Ji Shui" destiny, and he achieved the Purple Palace through the "Ji Shui" practice.

Upon breakthrough, the original "power of words" and "sharp tongue" resonated with the "position of the wind" supernatural power at the moment of the sublimation of destiny, transforming into a wondrous power!

This brand-new, wondrous dish is called "Words Become Law," and can also be called "Profound Meaning in Subtle Words" or "Words Contain Heaven's Law!"

Simply put, it's an advanced and sublimated form of "the power of words," which can even have a certain effect on a True Person of the Purple Mansion!

The renowned scholar Yuan Hongxu was struck by the miraculous power of "words becoming law," his luck was diminished, his life force was severed, and only death remained!

"But if he advances to the late Core Formation stage... he might be able to withstand some of the attacks."

"Although my magic is full of mechanics, if the stats are high enough, I can still tough it out... For example, it's not very useful against Nascent Soul stage monsters right now; I'll have to wait until I advance to the late Purple Mansion stage before I can have any effect on them..."

"And the wondrous power of 'words becoming law' is indeed a perfect match for the supernatural ability of 'position in the wind,' after all, 'Ji Shui' (箕水) is associated with favorable winds, and words are like a gust of wind..."

"Now I am truly a [Ji Shui] Purple Mansion True Man!"

Fang Qing was reluctant to take action before because he had recently broken through and needed to familiarize himself with his supernatural abilities.

Only then can you say you have fully mastered it.

"Master Zifu is different from Duzi after all... My ability to make calculations has increased again."

"In terms of the strength and total amount of magical power, although it has only just broken through, it is already comparable to the magical power of my current 'Sea Devouring Technique'."

"Lifespan... both the Purple Mansion and Core Formation stages are five hundred years, so there's no need to elaborate."

"Now I'm finally completely familiar with everything."

"But I'm not just a Water Virtue Purple Mansion cultivator!"

A hint of eagerness appeared on Fang Qing's face as he communicated with the 'Dao Sheng Pearl': "Activate!"

In an instant, a bead shrouded in a mixture of pure and impure energy, shimmering with vibrant colors, seemed to appear before his eyes.

As the Dao Sheng Pearl spun around, his original "Position of the Wind" divine power was completely dispelled, transforming into an incomparably wondrous aura that gathered within the Dao Sheng Pearl.

Then, Fang Qing silently activated the Heavenly Escape Sword Technique!

That wondrous aura descended and transformed into a [Loujin] divine power, which was none other than the 'Sharp Edge Chapter'!

"Ugh!"

Fang Qing bent down, feeling as if thousands of sword energies were scraping his bones. The green light between his brows dissipated, replaced by eyes that seemed to be dyed by that golden divine power, turning into pure gold. His robes also turned into platinum, bearing thousands of sword marks.

With his supernatural powers activated, countless profound sword techniques flowed through his mind.

A vast amount of [Lou Jin] Purple Mansion Dao cultivation appeared in Fang Qing's mind, and he even began to faintly comprehend the true Dao of "One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws"!

His understanding of swordsmanship was originally mediocre; he only knew how to generate sword energy and the sound of thunder when the sword moved.

However, after breaking through to the late stage of the Dao Foundation and transforming it into the [Loujin] Dao Foundation, he naturally learned the realms of 'Sword Light Differentiation' and 'Sword Intent Formation' after a little comprehension.

The same is true today!

Relying on the immense power of the 'Dao Sheng Pearl', which grants eternal proof, he directly transformed into a Purple Mansion Sword Immortal!

Conversely, the principle of "one sword breaks all laws" is actually quite simple...

Fang Qing was excited and tried out the supernatural powers of [Female Earth] 'White Bone Contemplation', [Stomach Earth] 'Refining Yuan Cauldron', and [Winged Fire] 'Phoenix Seeking Phoenix'. They were truly boundless in their power.

"Hahaha……"

A moment later, Fang Qing's hearty laughter echoed from the cave.

After a long while, he finally calmed down from his ecstasy: "It's a pity that I can't master the 'Radiant Spirit' of the [Starry Sun] technique, because the 'Great Sun Initiation Secret Technique' I have only has the foundation chapter, which is difficult to transform into a Purple Mansion Divine Power?"

"Never mind... it's just a matter of collecting cultivation techniques later. Things are much more convenient now than they were back then..."

Fang Qing's heart stirred, and the light of the [Ji Shui] between his brows flowed, transforming his supernatural powers into the 'Hidden Forest Bank' once again.

The shadows of the trees swayed all around, accompanied by the sound of flowing water, but his figure had vanished without a trace.

"Unfortunately... I'm only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion realm, so I only have one divine ability that I can freely switch between? If I switch to 'Hidden Forest Edge,' I have to remove 'Position of the Wind'? Is it the same for other divine abilities?"

Feeling the feedback from the Dao-Born Pearl, Fang Qing couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If we compare supernatural powers to different cards, then he is currently only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion realm, which means he only has one card slot.

To equip a new supernatural card, you must first remove the original card.

To possess two or three supernatural powers simultaneously, one must continuously unlock card slots.

In the realm of Qi cultivation, it represents advancement through practice. Once the second divine power is mastered, a second slot is available, allowing one to freely switch between the two divine powers.

When a Great True Person reaches the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm, they possess three supernatural powers that they can freely transform into...

"Even some bizarre combinations, like two [Ji Water] with one [Lou Gold]? Uh... wouldn't that just cause him to explode and die?"

Fang Qing shook his head, banishing the unrealistic idea from his mind.

"Having mastered the 'Listening to the Mysterious Cave Spring Scripture,' if you wish to break through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, you must switch to cultivating either the 'Misty Transformation Scripture' or the 'Forest Stream Deer-Seeing Technique'..."

"Then, with the 'Wind-Riding' divine ability in hand, I cultivated a second divine ability within my Purple Mansion... and thus broke through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion!"

"Compared to those who cultivate the Purple Mansion of Qi, my advantage is that I don't need to absorb true Qi anymore; I can cultivate directly..."

According to Fang Qing's speculation, the "Dao Sheng Pearl" can only be transformed by one supernatural power now. This may be because, in addition to the primordial energy, there is some more mysterious thing in the "supernatural power" that cannot be transformed, and there is only one limit.

He is only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion realm, and he only has one supernatural power. Naturally, no matter how he changes, he can only use one supernatural power to change in countless ways.

Once you reach the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm and have mastered two divine abilities, you'll have the capacity for both, allowing you to unleash their myriad transformations...

"Wait, even so, it seems there are still some tricks we can try!"

"For example, should I first transform my supernatural abilities into 'Hidden Forest Edge,' and then relearn the 'Listening to the Mysterious Cave Spring Scripture'? In this way, I'll be familiar with the process, and my breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm should be incredibly fast?"

Fang Qing silently noted down the idea, but then another question arose: "If I use this shortcut to continuously cultivate the 'Position of Wind' divine power three times and reach the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, what will happen to my cultivation of the other three divine powers of [Ji Shui]?"

"This method is fine for rampant corruption, but when it comes to securities firms, they'll regret their previous laziness..."

"Even if I can observe supernatural powers and improve my cultivation... I always feel that the foundation of my cultivation will not be very solid if I don't start cultivating from scratch myself."

"On the path of securities lending, one wrong step can lead to total ruin. How can shortcuts be allowed?"

"On the path of securities lending, one wrong step can lead to total ruin. How can shortcuts be allowed?"

"However, it's hard to say... After all, there is a 'guest' position in the fifth rank of gold, which sounds like a back door reserved for those who take shortcuts."

After reaching the Purple Mansion stage, the next step is to attain the Golden Core True Monarch status!

Fang Qing naturally began to consider his own path.
