Chapter 303 Cultivation
He accepted the explanation.
The land of Shu, Xituo County.
The White Tara of Moonlight suddenly sensed something, walked out of her own temple, and entered the void.
Under the wondrous light, the moonlight shone forth.
In just a short while, they arrived at Wusheng Temple.
Ding ding!
In Wusheng Temple, many large bells rang out, and the White Bone Dharma King personally arrived at the temple entrance.
The two Taras, Subduing Demon Black and Empty Sparrow, are present.
Then, a flash of light appeared in the void, and Vajra Power Child emerged from it, holding a bowl in his hand.
Inside the alms bowl burned a ball of emerald green flame, carrying the aura of withered bones and remains—it was the 'Emerald Fire of Withered Bones'!
At Fang Qing's waist was a sword called "Red Sky".
He deliberately used the identity of "Vajra Power Master" to kill Chu Zhaohuang, so that these two Purple Mansion Spiritual Treasures could be cleared and used openly.
As for the "Heavenly Blazing Banner"? And the other captured Purple Mansion magic treasures, they can definitely only be used in the Qi Refining Dao world...
"Respectfully presented to His Holiness the Dalai Lama."
Fang Qing grinned, revealing his teeth: "Chu Zhaohuang has formed a karmic bond with my White Bone Path. Now, I return the Spirit Fire, the Purple Mansion Spirit Treasure 'Crimson Sky Sword,' and his life... Thus, our grudges are settled..."
"It really is that owl!"
The Black Tara who subdues demons and the Sky Sparrow Tara are nothing special, but the White Tara of Moonlight, Miaoshan, truly came from that unbearable experience at the Temple of No Birth.
Looking at the 'Withered Bones and Azure Flames' she had encountered again, and the Purple Mansion Sword... she couldn't help but clasp her hands together: "If Miaofeng and Miaoshui were aware of this, they would surely be gratified..."
"well done."
The White Bone Dharma King Sangye also smiled, praising, "Vajra Power Child has settled the karmic debts for my White Bone Path; he deserves a generous reward..."
He immediately ordered his men to open the secret vault, allowing Fang Qing to choose his rewards.
Both the Black Tara who subdues demons and the Sky Sparrow Tara felt it was only natural.
"This Vajra Power Master truly deserves his reputation as the foremost of the five sons under the Dharma King... specializing in causing trouble."
"That Chu Zhaohuang was a Purple Mansion True Person of the Nine Heavens Fire Palace, and also a cultivator of strange fire, yet he was tricked and forced to perish..."
"Although I've heard it was due to an accident, Du Zi has been lying in wait in the East for many years, and he has also worked hard..."
……
Fang Qing returned to Wusheng Temple as if it were his own home. He first went to the underground vault and selected the spiritual items he had accumulated over the years that caught his eye, storing them all in his storage bag.
Then he looked at Sangji next to him.
"Not bad, almost at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm..."
Now that the Nine Heavens Fire Palace is bound to go mad, Fang Qing naturally chooses to return to the Demon Path to avoid the storm.
Furthermore, while other cultivators might find it difficult to connect to the Profound Void Heaven through the Profound Void Stone, he is different!
He could use his disciples who were still in the east to enter the Xuanxu Heaven through the Xuanxu Stone, and they could still learn a lot of information about the east, and it would be first-hand information.
Seeing that Sangji has already perfected the Dao Foundation of "Washing Away the Dust" and is ready to break through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm at any time, I can't help but feel a little gratified.
"This progress... I'm almost catching up."
"But my cultivation is abnormal; I cannot be compared to an ordinary Purple Mansion True Person..."
Fang Qing then reviewed the recent situation in Xituo County and found that it was all still acceptable.
At most, it's just some open and covert struggles between the forces of the Dao Foundation and the forces of the Dao Foundation, which are not worth his attention at all.
However, the Fang family of Qingli Mountain produced a genius who cultivated the [Ji Shui] technique. After absorbing the ninth level of Qi, he went to Wusheng Temple to obtain the [Dao Ji Dan], and then secluded himself for several years, successfully condensing the [Ji Gan Lin] Dao Ji in one fell swoop.
The Fang family of Qingli Mountain has now become a Dao Foundation-level power.
Of course, Wusheng Temple then increased the offerings to the Fang family, aiming to emulate other Daoist foundations...
……
Qi Refining Channel.
Yuquan Island.
Fang Qing sat cross-legged, frantically forming hand seals.
Streaks of dark magic power emerged and surged into the 'Dutian Blazing Flame Banner' floating in front.
This flag possessed extraordinary spiritual power, transforming into wisps of flame, which eventually faded away.
"This is good stuff."
Fang Qing picked up the "Dutian Blazing Flame Banner" and played with it with it as if he couldn't put it down.
"In terms of quality and power... it is probably sufficient for Nascent Soul cultivators to use."
"Furthermore, its inherent [mysterious] power—'Heavenly Blazing Fire'—while not a celestial fire, is no less powerful than those celestial fires, and possesses the profound ability to seal off the void..."
"In other words, this is a treasure specifically designed for Nascent Soul cultivators, one that strikes fear into the hearts of even the most formidable Nascent Soul cultivators in the East Sea cultivation world!"
Compared to the "Heavenly Blazing Banner," the other two Purple Mansion magic treasures are quite ordinary, at best comparable to the "Water Dividing Ring," and they also have the potential for incompatibility with the Dao lineage.
Although the 'All-Heaven Blazing Banner' also possesses this hidden danger, its power is enough to make Fang Qing bear with it for a while.
"It would be truly terrifying if this flag were wielded by a Grand Master of Fire Virtue... Hmm, thankfully that True Master Li Yan hasn't advanced to the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm, otherwise I would be the one running away in terror this time..."
Fang Qing happily inventoried his spoils and found that in addition to the three Purple Mansion magic treasures, there were also several bottles of spirit pills, including a bottle of 'Floating Cloud Profound Clarity'. He couldn't help but feel delighted: "Perfect... I can use these resources to cultivate for a while longer..."
……
Update released! Book lovers, go read Cola Novels!
Inside the secret room, the spring water gurgled.
Fang Qing sat cross-legged, surrounded by eight winds, which was the passive effect of the supernatural power "Position Facing the Wind".
Then, within his dantian, the Dao foundation of "Hidden Forest" was nurtured with wondrous power, instantly transforming into a dragon that shot straight into his Purple Mansion!
With the experience from last time, and having constantly studied the Daoist teachings of "Hidden Forest Bank" over the past few days, Fang Qing encountered no obstacles when cultivating his supernatural powers; it was a seamless process.
Subsequently, this divine power reached the Purple Mansion and began a fierce conflict with 'Wei Linfeng'.
In an instant, Fang Qing's expression changed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood essence.
Then, he formed hand seals, and both supernatural powers within his Purple Mansion were completely dissolved, transforming into a brand new [Wall Water] supernatural power—'Heaven's Life'!
Water is born from the yang energy of heaven, and it is adept at nourishing all things…
Splash!
Fang Qing felt as if a stream of clear water was flowing through his Purple Mansion, making him feel completely comfortable.
"This breakthrough was almost successful, but after 'Hidden Forest' entered the Purple Mansion, it failed to perfectly suppress the 'Position of the Wind' divine power, causing the two divine powers to clash..."
"Try again, you're sure to succeed!"
After some calculation, Fang Qing estimated that he would be able to advance to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm in two or three years!
Even faster than Sanchi's breakthrough!
In terms of cultivation speed, it's simply unbelievable.
"But this exposes a problem... My three Purple Mansion cultivation techniques of [Ji Shui] are probably in conflict with each other. It's okay if two of them are fine, but it's almost impossible for all three to coexist..."
After all, these Purple Mansion cultivation techniques were all inherited from their own collections, and they practiced whatever they had, not from the same lineage.
"Is this the helplessness of rogue cultivators? Even if they manage to gather supernatural abilities by chance, because they cultivated the wrong foundation beforehand, they still find it difficult to advance to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, and the late-stage of the Purple Mansion realm is even more hopeless..."
Harmonizing three supernatural powers is much more difficult than harmonizing two!
As for the four supernatural powers? Forget about it...
"We still need to find other [Ji Shui] techniques to inherit... My advantage over True Person Zi Fu is that I can change my mind and adjust at any time..."
"If it were any other [Ji Shui] Purple Mansion, even if they obtained the inheritance of the Great Dao, their own foundation would already be fixed, and their supernatural powers would be confined within the mansion, making them difficult to change. Wouldn't that be even more frustrating?"
"Actually, from my perspective, these three Purple Mansion Techniques are all in different directions and can each represent a [Ji Water] image... I didn't expect that something was still wrong."
"Leaving aside the issue of the difficulty in sensing the Golden Position with both old and new supernatural powers, my current problem is... even if I wanted to become a late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator on a dead end, I wouldn't have that 'fate'..."
"No, that's not right... With my [Ji Shui] cultivation level, if I were struck by lightning a few more times, I should be able to slowly adjust the three Purple Mansion techniques in my hands and pave the way for the late Purple Mansion stage. It would just take a little longer... But the four techniques are really wishful thinking."
Because the cultivation required to balance and adjust the three supernatural powers is not at all on the same level as that required for the four supernatural powers.
To reach the peak of the Purple Mansion realm on a small scale, one would need to be at least at the level of a Golden Core cultivator with the [Ji Shui] cultivation level.
"The path of Qi cultivation leading to the Golden Realm seems to have a huge trap... Even with the cultivation of the Purple Mansion Perfection stage, one is still far from achieving the Golden Realm..."
Fang Qing had at least read the "Tai Su Jin Shu" and had a broader perspective than the other Purple Mansion True Persons, so he immediately thought of many things.
"Furthermore, the new method of breath control is being implemented... It only allows for the step-by-step cultivation of specific supernatural abilities, making it difficult to sense the golden position..."
"It's better to cultivate the Qi Dao method, and after reaching the Divine Transformation stage, use a solid foundation and aura to comprehend supernatural powers, refining the spirit and uniting with the Dao..."
There must be something fishy going on here.
"And all of this is related to the enlightenment attained by the [Fang Ri] True Lord at the beginning of the ancient calendar..."
Fang Qing secretly recalled the historical puzzle pieces he possessed:
"In ancient times, the three [Yearly Stewards], namely the Great Sun, Metal, and Fire, were the first to attain enlightenment and established the twelve [Yearly Stewards] positions, which no one has been able to change for countless years..."
"Then, Taiyin was suspected of being appointed to the position of [Yearly Official]... Then, for some unknown reason, at the end of the Primordial Era, all of the [Yearly Officials] perished..."
"History thus entered the ancient era, where the phoenix attained [Winged Fire], and subsequently gave birth to five chicks, all of whom were supreme beings of the Golden Core stage..."
"During this period, many significant events occurred, including the attainment of enlightenment by [Stomach Earth], the seizure of the rightful position of Earth Virtue, and the swallowing of gold and fire by the Biyue Crow..."
"After that, there was the [Stomach Soil], and the fall of the Azure Phoenix..."
"At the end of the ancient era, the one on the [Dangerous Moon] who supported the 'Fuyu Yuanjun' in attaining the Dao [Fang Ri]... Many ancient True Lords slumbered, new methods flourished, and time entered the near-ancient calendar period..."
After some deliberation, he realized that he knew far too little, far too little, of the historical secrets he had been exposed to…
Many things cannot be explained.
For example... why are so many Golden Core True Monarchs in poor condition?
"External invasion? Or a great war involving all Golden Core True Monarchs? The time should be at the end of ancient times..."
"Or... has one of the [those on duty] begun to recover?"
A terrifying thought inexplicably surfaced in Fang Qing's mind.
It's highly likely that this will affect all Golden Core True Monarchs!
"But that doesn't make sense... That 'Lord of the Ashtanga Forest' is in extremely poor condition. She is a [Female Earth]... and Earth has never been [Dutiful Year] before, so why is she in this state?"
"Could it be a battle between good and evil? With the Great Sun Tathagata and the Phoenix present, the demonic path has won a great victory? Most of the True Lords were caught in the crossfire and thus severely injured and fell into a deep sleep?"
