Wang Mu fell into deep thought, sensing for a mont.
"[Cultivation: Yin Yang Chaos Technique (5)]"
? Wang Mu wondered. Do I have such high aptitude? Did I reach level 5 after just one round of cultivation? Don’t tell this thing, like the Hundred Refinent Body Technique, also has one hundred layers, right?
Wang Mu himself was a bit baffled. Normally, this Cultivation thod should be more difficult than those superficial skills, shouldn’t it? Why is it so high after just one round?
Wang Mu furrowed his brows tightly.
Could it be related to that Great Joy Yin Yang Map?
Wang Mu hadn’t used Action points to cultivate the Great Joy Yin Yang Map, rely cultivating diligently every day, and it was only at level 3 now.
Or is it that my attributes are too high in all respects?
"Not bad!"
Master Lu walked over, very satisfied. "Wang Mu, to achieve this on your first attempt at this technique, you might rank in the top three in the history of our Hidden Sword Peak based on this talent alone."
Good grief, and that’s still only top three? Wang Mu thought, The first two must be freaks of nature, right? Did they reach Great Success after just one round of cultivation?
"Master Lu, does this technique have different layers and realms?" Wang Mu asked.
"Of course," Master Lu replied. "This Transformation Skill, like most Cultivation Techniques, conforms to the cosmic number, uniting all in one—there are nine layers. Nine signifies Great Success, and Ten Layers Fulfilled.
"Ordinary Disciples, cultivating once daily, can reach the entrance of the first or second layer within a year. Whether they can reach fulfillnt depends on opportunity.
"Those with decent talent can enter within a few months and may reach fulfillnt in a few decades.
"And for those with extre talent, they can enter within a few days and may reach fulfillnt in a few years!
"But you have exceptional talent. Not only did you enter on your first attempt, but you also reached Small Success.
"Persist in your cultivation, cultivate once a day, and perhaps by this ti next year, you might have cultivated this technique to fulfillnt."
Wang Mu pondered thoughtfully. If he used Action points every ti, he estimated he wouldn’t need to wait until next year; he could achieve fulfillnt in just a month or two.
"Master Lu, this Transformation Skill, I feel that it can only transform..." Wang Mu continued to ask, "If I cultivate it to fulfillnt, can I transform into a real Sword Crane, the kind that flies?"
This was the biggest question in Wang Mu’s mind. Is the so-called Transformation Skill just a form of deception, or does it truly change oneself?
"Of course not," the sister in black robes replied irritably. "The Yin Yang Chaos Technique is just the foundation of the Transformation Skill, the core of the Thousand Illusion Twelve Transformations. Even at fulfillnt, you cannot change from static to dynamic; you can only create realistic deceptions.
"The so-called realistic deception is to make other Sword Cranes believe you are one of them when they see you. Ordinary Cultivators cannot easily distinguish it with their Divine Sense.
"But it does not encompass the abilities of a Sword Crane."
Hearing this, Wang Mu felt sowhat disappointed. In simple terms, a transford Sword Crane does not possess the abilities of an actual Sword Crane; it’s essentially an Illusion. But it looks very real.
Wang Mu’s thoughts on the Transformation Skill were that after transforming, one should ideally possess so abilities. For example, assuming the form of a Sword Crane, not to ntion other abilities, should allow one to fly, right?
"The Yin Yang Chaos Technique can’t..." Master Lu smiled faintly, "but the Thousand Illusion Twelve Transformations can. In the past, the Peach Fairy transford into twelve forms, experiencing twelve lives, each with different experiences—a truly exceptional tale.
"Among them, the Crown Beast Transformation allows you to take on the form of Flying Beasts or Spirit Beasts and possess their abilities..."
Wang Mu’s pupils constricted.
"However, the Thousand Illusion Twelve Transformations are extrely profound," Master Lu mused. "They are also tied to all sorts of karma, not sothing the average person can cultivate. When you cultivate this Yin Yang Chaos Technique to fulfillnt, I will then consider telling you about this signature spell and Divine Skill of our Hidden Sword Peak.
"Moreover, the essence of the Transformation Skill lies in using your heart to comprehend the world.
"The more you Travel, the more you experience, and the broader your horizon, the more effortless the cultivation of this skill will beco."
This advice wasn’t just for Wang Mu; it was clearly also for all Disciples.
It seems like a long-term Travel event is in order.
Wang Mu estimated, Once I cultivate this Yin Yang Chaos Technique to fulfillnt, and when the ti is right, there will also be a follow-up Travel event from Hidden Sword Peak.
He felt quite satisfied today.
"By the way, our Sword Sect’s Heart Calming Illusion Sword Technique becos easier to cultivate the higher your Realm," Master Lu instructed. "The Sword Sect’s predecessors modified the sword techniques according to the Do Cauldron Sword Scripture, which itself is based on the Thousand Illusion Twelve Transformations. The Transformation Skill is closely related to our Sword Sect’s auxiliary cultivation thods.
"If you are fortunate to have an epiphany about the Way of Yin Yang, then your progress in cultivating this skill will advance by leaps and bounds."
Hearing this, Wang Mu knew. So that’s why my cultivation progress is so rapid! It really is because of the Great Joy Yin Yang Map! This Cultivation Technique shares various connections with other Cultivation Techniques.
After leaving Hidden Sword Peak, Wang Mu returned to Heavenly Sword Peak and resud his daily cultivation and ditation routine.
In the fourth month, the newly joined Disciples began to undertake Sect tasks one after another because so of these tasks offered quite generous rewards. After three months of cultivation, the standard provisions seed sowhat insufficient for the everyday cultivation of a regular Disciple. Therefore, taking on more Sect tasks was beneficial, not only for gaining experience but also for earning rewards.
And what if it triggered a fortuitous encounter? That would be even more wonderful!
Wang Mu was not in a hurry. There’s no helping it. I have plenty of Spirit Stones, so I’ll just take it slow for now.
In the fourth month, Wang Mu discovered that the Travel event at Upper Cloud Peak had not yet disappeared.
Then I absolutely have to go. I’ll head there at the end of the month.
This month, following his usual routine, Wang Mu spent the early and middle parts of the month cultivating the Great Joy Yin Yang Map daily and practicing the Transformation Skill on the side. When convenient, he socialized with Disciples from Alcohol Sword Peak to improve his wine-making skill.
Mid-month, Luo Qifang sent a ssage by Sword Crane, saying that his Alchemy had beco more stable, he hadn’t blown up the Pill Furnace at all this month, and his Alchemy Skill was steadily improving.
He also sent Wang Mu a small Pill Furnace and an Elixir recipe as a gift: the recipe for the Spirit Revitalizing Pill.
Elixir recipes are not expensive; one could buy them from Dan Sword Peak for just a few Spirit Stones. You might not even need to buy them. If you have a good relationship with a fellow Disciple skilled in brewing Spirit Revitalizing Pills, they could teach you the recipe for free.
But a Pill Furnace, that’s quite expensive! The cheapest and smallest Pill Furnace would still cost over a hundred Spirit Stones. For one of slightly better quality, the price started at over a thousand Spirit Stones.
The Pill Furnace Luo Qifang sent was not very expensive; it was the small Gathering Spirit Furnace suitable for soone just starting to learn Alchemy. It could be bought at Dan Sword Peak for two hundred Spirit Stones.
For a Disciple who had just entered the Sect, that was a considerable sum.
Wang Mu thought to himself, This guy really is rich! How does he have so many Spirit Stones in just four months? I only have five to six hundred Spirit Stones on and haven’t really used many.
Later, when Wang Mu asked, he found out what happened. In the early part of the month, Luo Qifang had gone out to perform a Sect task: gathering Spiritual dicine. By chance, he found an injured Spirit Beast. After spending several days helping it, the Spirit Beast brought him a rare top-grade Spirit Grass as a thank you. He sold it upon returning to the Sect, earning a net profit of four hundred Spirit Stones.
There’s nothing to be done about that. Wang Mu mused. When a fortuitous encounter arrives, it’s unstoppable. That’s how it is with traveling outside...
So Disciples also found injured Spirit Beasts. However, after trying to help, they realized they had found a disguised Fierce Beast. They got nothing for their trouble and almost lost their lives in the process.
Luo Qifang believed this fortuitous encounter must have been related to that fish. Thus, he used two hundred Spirit Stones to buy a small Pill Furnace as a gift for Wang Mu.
Brother Luo is really straightforward; I like that!
Wang Mu played with the Qi Gathering Furnace in his hands. This Pill Furnace was quite delicate, the size of a pressure cooker, square, and adorned with so complex patterns, which resembled so kind of Formation. It could only be used to brew low-grade Elixirs.
That’s enough, Wang Mu estimated. My Alchemy Skill probably won’t let brew anything beyond low-grade Elixirs until level 10 anyway.
As for the Qi Replenishing Pill, that’s good stuff.
Throughout the Sect, whether on Sect tasks or traveling outside, no one dared to go without these Spirit Revitalizing Pills. As the na suggests, they are Elixirs for quickly replenishing Spiritual Power.
Although he had a Pill Furnace, Wang Mu still lacked the Cultivation necessary to perform Fire Magic and thus spent so Action points to learn this Elixir recipe directly at Li Huo Palace of Dan Sword Peak.
His Alchemy Skill smoothly rose from 4 to 7.
Clearly, this recipe was superior to the Qi Condensing Pill in every way, bringing significantly more proficiency.
In the late fourth month, Wang Mu began to pick a good day and used Action points to start cultivating the Hundred Refinent Body Technique.
Only the last two layers left.
Once I complete one hundred layers, I’ll start cultivating the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Skill.
It’s been four months; so people are already in the Fifth Layers Realm.
Thinking about achieving one hundred layers of the Hundred Refinent Body Technique still excited Wang Mu...
