There were no rows of bookshelves, nor any traces of cultivation techniques, only stalactites hanging down and barely visible talismanic arrays on the ground.
In the depths of the mountain belly, nine pieces of Mystic Iron Stele were embedded in the rock wall, each carved with incomprehensible ancient runes, yet still clearly visible despite the erosion of ti.
Yang Zhenshan stepped forward, looking at the nine Mystic Iron Steles, but ended up seeing nothing substantial, as he couldn’t recognize any of the runes on the steles.
As for how to obtain the cultivation techniques here, Lan Peng had inford him.
In front of the Mystic Iron Steles was a stone platform, and on the platform, there was a stone desk.
Yang Zhenshan moved forward, placed his palm on the stone desk, and activated the cultivation technique within him, channeling True Yuan into the desk.
In the next mont.
Strands of flowing light appeared on the stone desk, flickering, and the stalactites above also lit up with a faint halo, seemingly activating the entire Great Array in an instant.
Yang Zhenshan narrowed his eyes slightly, continuing to transmit True Yuan while quietly waiting.
After a few breaths of ti, three light shadows erged from the Mystic Iron Steles in front and slowly landed on the stone desk.
"Three kinds!"
Yang Zhenshan’s eyes brightened slightly.
According to Lan Peng, most people coming here could only obtain one cultivation technique, the lucky ones might get two, but getting three was extrely rare.
Yet, he had obtained three kinds.
However, upon seeing the three items in front of him, he was slightly stunned.
Two of them were items similar to bamboo slips, while the other was a milky white jade stone, about the size of a thumb.
"What is this?"
He picked up the jade stone and examined it carefully; it seed to be engraved with many runes, but they weren’t very clear.
Lan Peng hadn’t ntioned anything about this item to him.
After so thought, he believed this item must be a treasure, but it wasn’t the right ti for research, so he put it away for now.
Then he opened the bamboo slip beside it.
Yang Zhenshan looked at the content, initially dumbfounded, then an expression of imnse joy appeared on his face.
Green Wood Longevity Skill!
Qingmu Longevity Scripture!
The nas alone showed they were closely related.
"It’s actually an Immortal Dao Skill!"
"Qi Refinent, Foundation Establishnt, Golden Core!"
As Yang Zhenshan read the Qingmu Longevity Scripture in his hands, he suddenly ca to many realizations; many things that were previously unclear beca apparent at this mont.
According to Lan Peng, about ten thousand years ago, the Immortal Path began to decline, and Martial Arts started to flourish. As for why the Immortal Path declined and Martial Arts flourished, Lan Peng was not very clear.
But Lan Peng was right, Martial Arts evolved from the Immortal Path.
In terms of realm division, the Innate Realm of Martial Arts is actually the Qi Refinent Realm of the Immortal Path, and the so-called Energy Introduction Skill is rely a Qi Refinent technique.
The Martial God Realm in Martial Arts corresponds to the Foundation Establishnt Stage of the Immortal Path, and the concept of condensing a Golden Body bears many similarities to Foundation Establishnt.
However, there are many differences between the two. The realm division of Martial Arts is simpler, and the thod of condensing a Golden Body is more resourceful, using external objects to condense it.
In comparison, Foundation Establishnt of the Immortal Path is more difficult and dangerous.
That’s right, more dangerous.
In Yang Zhenshan’s view, condensing a Golden Body is already very dangerous, but Foundation Establishnt on the Immortal Path is even more perilous, with the slightest mistake leading to death and eradication of the Dao.
Besides, the Immortal Path requires more resources, is slower to cultivate, and places great emphasis on the aptitude of the cultivator.
Of course, the Immortal Path has its advantages; Immortal cultivators have longer lifespans, their thods are more mysterious, and the abilities they can master far exceed those of Martial Cultivators.
The Green Wood Longevity Skill Yang Zhenshan had cultivated was obviously derived from this Qingmu Longevity Scripture.
Comparing the two, the Green Wood Longevity Skill is easier to cultivate, while the Qingmu Longevity Scripture is more wondrous.
By comparing the two techniques, Yang Zhenshan roughly understood the reasons for the decline of the Immortal Path.
Firstly, the Immortal Path places great importance on talent, and only those with spiritual apertures can cultivate its techniques.
Secondly, the Immortal Path values comprehension, emphasizes perceiving the heavens and the earth, and as one’s cultivation increases, the requirents for aptitude and comprehension also beco higher.
Thirdly, the Immortal Path requires even more resources for cultivation; Yang Zhenshan had always thought that Martial Arts cultivation here in the Sea of Spirit depended on resources too much, but after reading the Qingmu Longevity Scripture, he realized that the Immortal Path’s demand for resources was even greater.
After finishing the Qingmu Longevity Scripture, Yang Zhenshan let out a long breath.
The Immortal Path has many shortcomings, but it has one advantage that Yang Zhenshan finds hard to resist.
That is, longevity for ten thousand years!
The lifespan at the Qi Refinent Realm is the sa as ordinary people, but in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, the lifespan extends to three hundred years, the sa as the Martial God Realm, but once at the Golden Core Stage, the lifespan is three thousand years!
In contrast, a martial artist in the Martial Immortal Realm only has a lifespan of five hundred years, even those adept at life-extending techniques will not exceed eight hundred years.
As Yang Zhenshan knew, the longest-lived expert in the Martial Immortal Realm in the Sea of Spirit had lived to only about seven hundred and thirty years.
Three thousand versus eight hundred, the difference in lifespan is too vast.
Apart from lifespan, the thods of the Immortal Path are exceedingly wondrous, far beyond what martial artists can compare.
This Qingmu Longevity Scripture contains dozens of Immortal Skills, each one incredibly magical.
If it were anyone else, holding this Qingmu Longevity Scripture would probably only bring sighs of unattainability, but Yang Zhenshan was different; he possessed the Spirit Source Land, providing him with endless, inexhaustible resources, enabling him to cultivate the Immortal Path.
Moreover, since the Teaching Array here bestowed him with this technique, it indicated he possessed a spiritual aperture.
Otherwise, the Teaching Array would not have given him a technique he could not cultivate.
Yang Zhenshan was tempted, heart pounding, excitent unstoppable.
Clenching the Qingmu Longevity Scripture, he finally relaxed after a long while, storing it in his Spirit Source Land.
"I’ll wait until I return to deal with this!" He could only suppress the excitent in his heart this way.
Then he picked up another technique and began to read.
"Nurture thunder with wood, verify the Dao with thunder."
"Internal refinent as the foundation, externally manifesting as the might of thunder."
"Using liver energy as the foundation for cultivation, as the liver belongs to wood, its energy is green, tied to the vitality of thunder. Breathing and guiding, purifying liver energy, to be as pure as green energy, resonating with the energy of wood in heaven and earth."
"Condensing the green energy of the liver palace into the ’Qinghua Thunder Pearl,’ connecting above to the Nirvana Palace, reaching below to the Yongquan."
"Combining my True Qi with the creation of the heavens and earth."
"Place the Qinghua Thunder Pearl into the Dantian, driven by the Primordial Spirit, can release the ’Wood Divine Thunder,’ possessing both the vitality of wood and the ferocity of thunder, able to repel evil and treat diseases, as well as stimulate the growth of all things."
"There are also Divine Skills!"
"Nine Heavens Wood Divine Thunder, condensing the energy of wood from Nine Heavens, transforming into a green thunder pillar, specifically breaking evil spirits and filthy Yin."
"Green Wood Purple Lightning Sword, infuse life-essence with thunder energy, the sword is shrouded in green and purple thunder light, allowing remote sword control, slashing demons and eradicating devils."
As Yang Zhenshan read the Qinghua Thunder Skill, his previously cald excitent began to leap joyfully again.
This Qinghua Thunder Skill was clearly complentary to the Qingmu Longevity Scripture, with the two enhancing each other.
Besides, it could fulfill Yang Zhenshan’s persistent yearning for the power of thunder.
"Ah, such a technique, I really can’t refuse!"
Yang Zhenshan was utterly defeated, unable to resist, determined to tread the path of Immortality.
After a long ti, Yang Zhenshan managed to suppress the excitent in his heart again, looking up at the Mystic Iron Steles on the stone wall opposite him.
At this mont, he had the idea to tear open the stone wall to see how many cultivation techniques it truly hid inside.
But it was rely a thought, for the arrays here were not without lethality; if he were to actually do so, the only outco would be being blasted to pieces by the arrays.
Of course, he had another way to unearth all the techniques here.
Carefully storing the Qinghua Thunder Skill, Yang Zhenshan’s heart moved, and Yu Qingyi appeared by his side.
"This is the Ancient Relic Array!" Yu Qingyi curiously scrutinized the surroundings.
"Yes, co, place your hand here, input your True Yuan, and see what techniques it will offer you!" Yang Zhenshan said.
Yu Qingyi did not hesitate, stepping forward and placing her hand on the stone desk as he instructed.
In the next mont, as the light circulated, two bamboo slips appeared on the stone desk.
