Ascension Through Generations

After everyone swore an oath, they were supposed to pay homage to the patriarch.

But unfortunately, Patriarch Guiyuan went out to visit friends, so he had to skip this step.

After entering the mountain gate, Zhao Sheng, Feng Yu Lao Dao and others called each other senior brothers according to their teeth order, and also paid homage to Elder Jing Hong and Head Jin Chenzi.

Next is the part of teaching and teaching that everyone is most concerned about.

Perhaps out of the importance he attached to the foundation-building monks, Jin Chenzi personally led everyone to the Sutra Library Pavilion located deep in the mountain.

There are three places where Guiyuan Sect stores its martial arts and the various arts of cultivating immortals.

A place located on the plain at the foot of the mountain is called the Tibetan Scripture Tower. This place is open to all disciples, no merit is required, but most of the books stored in it are some insignificant books such as common knowledge of cultivating immortals, basic spells, general knowledge of cultivating immortals, unofficial histories and anecdotes.

The Sutra Collection Pavilion that everyone came to was the second place, which contained various precious immortal cultivation techniques, alchemy tools, talismans and other technical secrets.

As for the Guiyuan Sect's most precious skills, elixir prescriptions, weapon refining records and other treasures, they are stored in the cave of Guiyuan Ancestor, and can only be awarded with the approval of the Ancestor.

The Sutra Pavilion is a large six-story stone hall. The door of the stone hall is tightly closed, and there is a palm-sized square hollow on the right side.

At this time, the surface of the stone palace was covered with a layer of multicolored light film, which was a very powerful restriction at first glance.

Jin Chenzi waved his long sleeve, and a blood-colored token flew out, passed through the light film silently, and was firmly embedded in the recess of the door.

After a blur, the colorful light film quickly dispersed.

Jin Chenzi waved his hand to recall the bloody token, and then the palace door silently opened to both sides, revealing the spacious hall behind.

Jin Chenzi was the first to step inside, and Zhao Sheng and others also filed in.

The hall on the first floor is very wide. The internal space is circular, five or six feet high and about thirty feet in diameter.

The top of the hall is inlaid with flame beads. The flame beads release bright flames, illuminating the hall as bright as day.

On the walls around the hall, there are ten stone gates. On the sides of the stone gates are written spells, elixirs, talismans, tools, curses, beasts and other runes.

Jin Chenzi kept walking, pushed open the French-character stone door, and climbed up the stone steps.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Sheng and others followed him.

After climbing twenty stone steps, everyone reached the second floor. The stone door on the second floor was closed and covered with a layer of light film, but only in three colors.

Jin Chenzi kept walking, passing the third floor, the fourth floor, and did not stop until the fifth floor.

"I brought you up this time. If you come here again in the future, you must have an identity token, otherwise you will be killed by the restrictions here."

With that said, Jin Chenzi took out the bloody token and put it into the hollow on the stone door.

The forbidden light film dispersed, and the stone door opened silently.

Jin Chenzi reminded: "Remember, each person can only choose one golden elixir technique. After an hour, no matter whether you have chosen it or not, you must come out in time. Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

Zhao Sheng and others nodded solemnly, and then walked in eagerly.

The fifth floor is quite large but very empty. There are only fifteen stone platforms standing on the ground that are half a person tall and three feet square. The top of the stone platform is covered by a spherical light film, and there are simple jade slips placed on the platform.

"The Law of Ten Thousand Trees Towering into Heaven"

"Golden Crow Burning Heaven Technique"

"Xuan Yuan Heavy Water Jue"

"The Power of Soaring into the Sky"

…

Zhao Sheng was not in a hurry to choose the exercises, but walked past the stone platform one by one.

As each extremely precious golden elixir technique came into view, Zhao Sheng felt the urge to sweep them all away from time to time.

It's just that... he knew this was impossible, at least not for the time being.

After a while, after Zhao Sheng read all the techniques, he went directly to the stone platform where the "Xuan Yuan Heavy Water Jue" was placed. He stretched out his hand through the light film and easily took out the jade slip.

Unlike others, Zhao Sheng identified the "Xuanyuan Heavy Water Jue" from the beginning.

To put it bluntly, it is not surprising at all, because the "Xuan Ling Gong" he practiced happens to be one of the simplified exercises of "Xuan Yuan Heavy Water Jue", and the two are of the same origin.

Situations like Zhao Sheng's are not uncommon in the world of immortality.

The higher the grade of a skill, the difficulty of its practice is often directly proportional to the grade.

In order to select more outstanding inheritors, the Immortal Cultivating Sect often splits a high-level skill into multiple simplified skills and chooses to spread them.

This practice is very common in the world of immortality, and the most extreme example is Ksitigarbha Sect.

…

Half an hour later, Zhao Sheng groaned and took the jade slip of the martial art from his eyebrows with a pale face.

"Xuanyuan Heavy Water Technique" is worthy of being a golden elixir level exercise. The content of the exercise has extremely high information entropy and can be described as a subtle statement.

In addition, the second half of the jade slip actually records a large number of experiences and experiences of practitioners from past generations.

Because he copied too much information in a short period of time, Zhao Sheng suffered a great loss of mental energy.

It wasn't until he took a nourishing pill that his complexion improved a lot.

An hour passed quickly.

Zhao Sheng and the other twelve foundation-building monks all walked out of the stone building with happy faces, and then followed Master Jin out of the Scripture Deposit Pavilion.

…

Five days later, in a training room in a cave, Zhao Sheng crossed his legs and closed his eyes, holding a water-blue stone in each hand, and the spiritual vortex in his body rotated rapidly.

At this moment, wisps of pure water spiritual energy were continuously sucked into the Dantian vortex from the water blue stone, and then quickly refined into spiritual power.

At the same time, under the guidance of Zhao Sheng's spiritual consciousness, strands of spiritual power flowed out from the Dantian, followed a complex route through the eight extraordinary meridians, and then flowed to the limbs and bones.

Then, the spiritual power regroups from countless small hidden veins to the twelve main meridians, and finally flows back to the Dantian Qi sea and merges into the spiritual power whirlpool.

Zhao Sheng carefully maintained this spiritual power cycle.

It had only been built for less than a day and was still very fragile.

If you are not careful, it will collapse immediately, and all the hard work of the past few days will be in vain.

I don’t know how long it took, but after the two water-blue stones suddenly shattered into a pile of dregs, Zhao Sheng slowly opened his eyes, and a joyful look flashed in his eyes.

Because "Xuanling Kung Fu" is a simplified technique of "Xuan Yuan Heavy Water Technique", Zhao Sheng's conversion of the technique was very smooth, and he successfully established a new spiritual power cycle in just a few days.

This saved him at least three months.

Only after receiving the "Xuanyuan Heavy Water Technique" did Zhao Sheng realize the true value of the Golden Elixir level technique.

What's precious about it is not that it greatly improves the efficiency of cultivation, but that it involves a leap in spiritual power.

What is a spiritual leap?

To give a simple example, there are countless kinds of spiritual fires in the world of immortality, but according to their energy levels, they can be divided into ordinary fires, spiritual fires, real fires, etc.

The spiritual power of cultivators is somewhat similar to the classification of spiritual fire levels.

It is called spiritual power when you are in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment realms, it is called True Yuan in the Golden Core realm, and it is called mana power when you are in the Nascent Soul realm and above.

The reason why it is difficult for foundation-building monks to advance to the Golden Core Realm is largely due to the failure of the spiritual power jump.

The leap of spiritual power into true essence is like ordinary fire suddenly evolving into spiritual fire of heaven and earth. This is very, very difficult!
