Chapter Ten: The Dharma Gate of Cultivating Supernatural Powers

  It was about seven or eight months ago that this guy refined a day's worth of Taoist treasure, and his mind and spirit were exhausted, so he didn't want to meditate and practice his breath. He picked up his dustpan and walked slowly, admiring the mountain scenery while recovering his spirits, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the entrance of a cave in the back mountains.

  In front of the cave, there was a large flat ground where dozens of cultivators with strong spiritual energy were constantly inhaling and exhaling to temper their skills. The medicinal herbs and heavenly treasures that had been heard of or not heard of poured into their spiritual energy like a waterfall. As he saw it that day, in just half an hour, one cultivator threw out hundreds of bottles of Moonlight to temper his internal spiritual energy, and in his opinion, the effect was not very good.

  "The cultivation of Fa Li now relies on accumulating time, and crystal stones cannot be used, lest the probability of advancing to Jin Dan decreases; Ling Dan's wonderful medicine cannot be used recklessly, otherwise it will make the foundation unstable, the Fa Li more chaotic, and the probability of achieving Jin Dan even lower." Looking at the cultivation site that had been waiting for over a year, Wang Guang felt a sense of boredom in his heart.

  "It's time to go down the mountain and move around. Although the Taoist techniques cannot be cultivated, that divine ability can be cultivated." Wang Guang's heart moved when he thought of some Taoist techniques and divine abilities he had seen in the Scripture Pavilion a while ago. Wanting to go down the mountain and fight with monsters, to familiarize himself with the attacking methods of Qi Refining Masters, he must first have his own attacking ability. If he didn't even have that, fighting with monsters would be very dangerous.

  It turned out that some time ago, he found a record of Shentong in a secluded corner of the Cangjing Pavilion. This Shentong is different from the law gates that increase the power of the law, and even more different from the Taoist techniques that rely on the release of the power of the law. It is a kind of innate skill similar to the congenital ability, which is said to be derived from the congenital abilities of some powerful people in ancient times. The power is very strong.

  According to some Taoist scriptures, after mastering this divine ability, it consumes very little magical power when used. It's probably the same as other powerful spells, with only one percent of the usual magical power consumption. However, cultivating it is a different story, consuming both magical power and a large amount of time.

  However, apart from cultivating divine abilities through the use of Fa Li, there are other methods to cultivate this divine ability. That is, using the spiritual energy in Ling Dan Miao Yao, crystals, and even Ling Guo to cultivate divine abilities with secret techniques. The only thing is that the divine abilities cultivated in this way have lower power, only one-third of the power of orthodox cultivation. Moreover, there are other restrictions, but they will not be listed here.

  After making up his mind, Wang Guang decided to choose a divine art to cultivate. After finishing this Qi exercise, he didn't use the Treasure Light Scroll to fly with his body, but instead walked step by step to the Scripture Pavilion.

  On the third floor, he found a Taoist scripture that recorded the divine power. With the divine power to cultivate the eyes, cultivating to a high level, the eyes shot out several feet of golden light, and anyone who was swept by the golden light would have their magic treasures shattered, their bodies petrified, and even a wisp of their soul would be permanently sealed within their body. However, after seeing the required magical power on the first floor above, Wang Guang suddenly felt discouraged.

  With his current cultivation base, it would be impossible to successfully cultivate the first layer of this divine ability in less than several decades. As for how much spiritual energy it would specifically require to cultivate, he had never cultivated it before and wasn't clear about that either.

  "Change to another one. Wait until I achieve the Golden Elixir, and after twelve periods of non-stop absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and taking in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it won't be too late to cultivate this divine ability." He thought for a moment, then directly jumped to the next Taoist book. However, the divine ability recorded on this one still didn't meet his requirements, so he skipped over it once again.

  After searching for four or five hours, he finally found a divine art that suited his current situation. "Molten Claw!" A low-grade top-tier divine art, specializing in cultivating the hands of the practitioner. The cultivator needs to permanently inject a certain amount of spiritual power every day to cultivate and advance. The first layer can tear apart tigers and leopards, crush giant rocks; the second layer can grab low-grade inferior treasures; the third layer can block low-grade inferior flying swords... The twelfth layer can capture the sun and moon, and flames that can burn mountains and boil seas. This divine art has a total of twelve layers, and cultivation cannot be interrupted for even one day, otherwise it will retreat three days' progress.

  "It's a pity there isn't a defensive divine ability like the Golden Bell Shield or Iron Cloth Shirt, otherwise he wouldn't have to choose this one." Wang Guang muttered to himself as he memorized the cultivation method of this divine ability with his jade slip. In fact, many of the thoughts in his mind were still based on his experiences from the Jianghu world.

  In his opinion, if you want to make a fortune in the future, you must first have the ability to withstand a beating. Only then can you consider your attacking skills. No matter what you do, first ensure that you don't die, and only then think about other things. Otherwise, even if your attack is powerful, one careless move and you'll be slapped to death, and all your efforts will be in vain. He had suffered a lot in this regard when he was wandering the world.

  "Boundless Heaven Venerable! It seems that I can only cultivate this divine ability first, and after I have the qualifications to enter the main hall of the One Qi Sect on the mountain peak in the future, it's not too late to find various body-protecting divine abilities there." After thinking to himself for a moment, he put the jade slip into the Hundred Treasures Pouch that he had purchased with crystal stones earned from selling magical artifacts some time ago.

  After asking some practitioners outside the Scripture Pavilion about their practice, he turned around and went down the mountain.

  He found a secluded spot, quickly and nimbly took off the Taoist robe that represented his inner door identity, changed into an outer door disciple's Taoist robe, patted the Baobao pouch on his chest, and more than ten blue gems came out of his pocket. By doing so, he was preventing unnecessary trouble from those outer door disciples due to his different identity.

  More than a dozen blue sapphires transformed into blue light and swirled around his body, then suddenly wrapped him up and flew towards a distant mountain valley.

  That valley was formed by three to five tall mountain peaks, originally there was only one entrance and exit besides the sky, but somehow in a certain year, a practitioner used his great magical power to blast out a second entrance, as a result, practitioners who came here to fight with monsters and cultivate their combat skills suddenly increased.

  This valley is not far from the inner mountain, about 500 or 600 miles away. In less than an hour, after several upgrades of the Hundred Miles Flowing Light, Wang Guang was rolled over here.

  The falling treasure light landed at the entrance of the valley, and more than a dozen gems rotated in mid-air, transforming into fine blue light that poured into his Hundred Treasures Pouch.

  "Tianya Pavilion is recruiting thugs, requiring magical powers, beauties preferred, single beauties prioritized. Males are required to be able to release attack spells." Over a thousand people were gathered at the mountain valley entrance, making a lively scene. As soon as Wang Guang descended, he heard a cultivator shouting this out.

  "Cat Pounces on the World is recruiting female Qi practitioners of the Wave Surge level. No requirements are limited. If you join, the guild will provide free recovery medicines and treasures, as well as Taoist scriptures. Only nine spots left, hurry up, if you miss this opportunity, there won't be another one."

  "Recruiting one wet nurse, only one more needed. Providing restorative medicine, harvestable materials can be obtained at a rate of two-fifths. Requires the ability to cast five or more healing spells in one breath."

  Hurriedly scanning the area, a large number of Qi practitioners held up banners in conspicuous locations to recruit members, while others loudly shouted. Some teams even sent out female Qi practitioners to dance and search for powerful teammates.

  A slightly stronger Qi Practitioner quickly had a team, while the weak and small Qi Practitioners were unwanted here, disliked there, and their days weren't easy to get by.

  When there are many people, they start arguing, and some teams will be scolded by other teams for poaching their own recruits. They get addicted to scolding, directly draw their swords, throw out their magic weapons and start fighting.

  Yi Qi Sect wasn't a renowned or prestigious sect, the sect leader's management of his disciples was extremely lenient. As long as you didn't steal the sect's treasures or plot against it, even if you killed many outsiders who practiced Qi, you wouldn't be punished. It was precisely because of this that when they fought, no one would restrain them.

  There are onlookers around, watching the commotion and cheering loudly. Some even scold the person they're interested in for not being able to fight back, pointing fingers at them. They can't help but wish they could go up and replace their opponent in the fight.

  "Hey! Brothers, are you interested in joining my team? My team is all composed of skilled players. Although our magic power may not be as strong as some people in other teams, most of us have practiced Taoist skills." Just as Wang Guang was about to enter the valley alone, a middle-aged man walked over and took out a command flag to invite him to form a team.

  "Boundless Heaven Venerable! My poor Dao's magical powers are not yet sufficient to use the flying sword treasure, and I haven't even learned any Daoist techniques. However, while wandering in Jianghu, I did practice a bit of martial arts skills with weapons. I wonder if your team needs someone like me?" Wang Guang glanced back at the man and found that there were already eight or nine people waiting there, apparently members of this middle-aged man's team.

  "No big deal, our team is just short of a fighter. We've been looking for a suitable teammate for over an hour and can't find one. It's not that we look down on them for having weak abilities, but rather they look down on our team for being inefficient. I see you're quite muscular and your abilities aren't bad either, I reckon you have some skills." The middle-aged man smiled, showing his teeth. The cultivators didn't mind Wang Guang's words, after all, as time went by, these old cultivators became eccentric in their own ways.

  When the other party said this, Wang Guang also didn't decline. He concentrated a bit of magic power and injected it into the man's hand on the command flag. Afterwards, he found that he had an extremely weak connection with the command flag. At this time, he discovered that the middle-aged man and the eight or nine people behind him all had a virtual command flag floating above their heads, indicating their team identity to avoid mistaking teammates for enemies during battle. Of course, those who were not part of this team couldn't see the command flags.

  Some unnatural touches on his head, but under the smiling faces of several others, Wang Guang quickly came to. The flag was just a projection and couldn't be touched at all.

  "Brother, it's the first time using this treasure!" A young cultivator with a smile on his face said to Wang Guang: "When I first formed a team with someone, it was like this too. Hehe! Looks like we're all the same!"

  "Cough! Conditioned reflex, heh heh!" Wang Guang smiled wryly, not feeling embarrassed at all. Anyway, after a simple disguise and leaving the group, changing his attire would make it impossible for anyone to recognize him. After all, among the Qi cultivators challenging the demonic beasts here, none of them had the ability to cultivate the technique of perceiving aura fluctuations yet, so he wasn't worried about being recognized in the future either.

  After the young man's interruption, the team's stiff atmosphere was slightly enlivened. Gradually, more conversations started, either introducing themselves or discussing the situation in this Qi-practicing world.

  Through the conversations of these people, Wang Guang discovered that they all came after the disappearance of the red dust barrier, either through personal recommendations, or being recruited by others, or coming alone in search. Their original bodies did not achieve innate great perfection, and some didn't even reach the innate level.

  And so, in conversation, the crowd entered this valley.

  The gathering place of these demon beasts was actually formed after the Qi Sect established its branch here, and through the continuous construction of successive sect masters. Around each gathering point of the demon beasts, there are restrictions that prevent the demon beasts inside from escaping, and on the other hand, allow disciples who fight with the demon beasts here to quickly transmit out when they encounter danger by crushing special talismans.

  And to maintain such a ban, the daily consumption of crystal stones is not a small amount. It is precisely because of this that the strength and weakness of some sects are often measured by the number of demon beasts gathered at their gates.
