Chapter 104 Breakthrough
Ye Qingyang carefully selected various cultivation techniques and manuals, his gaze sweeping over the dazzling array of books before him. After much deliberation, he finally decided to prioritize cultivating the offensive technique "Blazing Sun True Scripture," the escape technique "Phantom Escape Technique," and the first level of "Azure Wood Longevity Technique."
However, since he is still in the Qi Refining stage, his physical fitness and spiritual energy reserves are relatively limited, so the first two cultivation methods are more suitable for his current stage of practice.
After all, his immediate priority was to enhance his own strength and master effective means of self-preservation to deal with potential dangers; while the "Green Wood Longevity Technique" was a profound cultivation method that required more time and energy to study and comprehend, especially the part about realm improvement after the Foundation Establishment stage, which was more challenging.
Considering all this, Ye Qingyang knew he couldn't rush things and needed to improve his cultivation step by step. So he temporarily put aside his obsession with cultivating the later levels of the "Azure Wood Longevity Technique" and focused on the two techniques in front of him that could quickly improve his combat ability and mobility.
I believe that with the passage of time and the accumulation of experience, it won't be too late to delve into this further when one enters the Foundation Establishment stage.
Without further ado, Ye Qingyang sat cross-legged, adjusted his breathing, and began circulating his spiritual energy according to the methods of the "Blazing Sun True Scripture." As time passed, his body gradually heated up, and the surrounding air seemed to become scorching hot as well.
Suddenly, Ye Qingyang felt a powerful energy surge into his heart, a sign of a breakthrough. He concentrated his mind and focused all his energy on guiding this energy to break through his bottleneck.
A moment later, with a loud "bang," Ye Qingyang successfully broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refining. Overjoyed, he continued to cultivate the "Blazing Sun True Scripture" to stabilize his realm.
After that, Ye Qingyang began to cultivate the "Phantom Escape Technique". This escape technique is incredibly magical, allowing a person to disappear from their original spot instantly, making it impossible to defend against.
After a period of practice, Ye Qingyang had grasped the basics of the "Phantom Escape Technique." He tried it out, and his figure instantly became blurry before disappearing. When he reappeared, he was already several feet away.
Ye Qingyang was very satisfied with this, and felt more confident.
"Great! I've finally mastered it! Now I won't be passive anymore. With these two techniques, I can use them for self-defense. If I can't win, I can use the 'Phantom Escape Technique' to escape." Ye Qingyang was overjoyed, secretly pleased with himself.
Next, he turned his attention to the third cultivation technique, "The Green Wood Longevity Technique".
"Now I have defensive and escape techniques, but when it comes to techniques, quality is more important than quantity. Only the truly excellent ones are worth learning," Ye Qingyang muttered to himself, pondering.
However, even good cultivation techniques must be chosen according to one's own cultivation level. Just like this "Green Wood Longevity Technique," if one's cultivation level is not high enough, it will be difficult to cultivate it to a higher level.
Ye Qingyang gently opened the "Azure Wood Longevity Technique," his gaze falling on the introduction. The power of this technique was astonishing: it not only contained profound cultivation methods but also integrated the spiritual energy and natural power of heaven and earth.
By cultivating this technique, cultivators can absorb the energy of the green wood to nourish their bodies and temper their souls; at the same time, they can also comprehend various magical spells and skills, greatly enhancing their strength.
The creator of this cultivation technique was a legendary figure. It is said that he endured countless hardships, traversing mountains and rivers, and finally, by chance, obtained an ancient inheritance. With astonishing talent and perseverance, this predecessor successfully created the unique "Azure Wood Longevity Technique." After causing a great stir in the cultivation world, he disappeared without a trace.
The creation of the "Azure Wood Longevity Manual" was not a sudden achievement, but rather the culmination of the creator's life's work. He incorporated his experience, wisdom, and pursuit of immortality into it, making it a coveted treasure for cultivators.
This cultivation method places particular emphasis on both internal and external cultivation, pursuing the supreme state of unity between body and mind. While continuously improving their cultivation level, practitioners will gradually master powerful spells and skills, able to unleash earth-shattering attacks and indestructible defenses at will. Such a wondrous and unpredictable method is undoubtedly a treasure coveted by all cultivators!
Time flies, and several months have passed in the blink of an eye. However, this technique is indeed unfathomable and difficult to understand. Even though Ye Qingyang spent a lot of time studying it diligently for more than a month, he only touched the tip of the iceberg.
Lacking guidance from mentors and friends, he struggled to cultivate on his own, making every step incredibly difficult. Two years passed in the blink of an eye, and he had only scratched the surface of this technique.
After all, his own cultivation level was limited, and he had never been able to break through to the first level. Ye Qingyang was well aware of the principle that being greedy for more would only lead to nothing, but fortunately, he learned many valuable experiences and insights from it.
"Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid the only way to achieve anything is to join a sect. If I can receive my master's careful guidance, I can avoid many unnecessary detours and wrong turns; besides, it's good to have a powerful backer!" Ye Qingyang thought to himself.
After making his plans, Ye Qingyang suddenly seemed to remember something important. With a thought, he used his powerful divine sense to probe into the storage bag hanging at his waist and carefully took out two books that looked somewhat old and ancient—"Identification of Herbs" and "Complete Guide to Alchemy".
"Phew... Luckily, I had some knowledge of medicine and have a certain foundation in medical science. This so-called alchemy should be the most suitable path for me!"
"Moreover, I've heard that alchemists seem to hold a very high position in the cultivation world. If they can really come in handy in the future, then it won't be a waste of all the time and effort I've spent studying these things today... Hmm, I must study them well no matter what!" Ye Qingyang murmured to himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, he buried himself in the book again, devouring every bit of knowledge it contained with insatiable hunger, like a sponge that could never be filled, tireless and never stopping...
