Chapter 128: 128: The Tenth Level of the Taiqing Wuji Technique! (Weekend Extra)
It took Lu Changsheng a full seven days to thoroughly refine this Immortal Instrument and imprint his own mark on it.
“If the Sect Leader of the Joyous Union Sect learns that I not only killed his son and a Supreme Elder of the Joyous Union Sect but also acquired one of their Immortal Instruments, he will definitely be furious. It’s best for me to stay and cultivate at Mount Shu during this time.”
Having refined the Holy Fire Immortal Ring, Lu Changsheng finally possessed an offensive-type Immortal Artifact which he could make do with using.
“Master, your disciple has returned.”
While Lu Changsheng was refining the Holy Fire Immortal Ring, his eldest disciple Lin Qingzhi returned to Qingyun Peak, and his second disciple Lu Qinglian was cultivating the Fire Lotus True Qi by leveraging the power of Earth Fire at Fire Lotus Peak.
Lin Qingzhi’s return came at just the right time.
After Lin Qingzhi’s breakthrough to the Dao Palace Realm, Lu Changsheng could bestow upon him even higher-grade treasures.
Through the system’s disciple panel, Lu Changsheng could see Lin Qingzhi’s information.
[Name: Lin Qingzhi]
[Race: Human]
[Talents: Everlasting Verdant Body, Heart of the Innocent, Innate Spiritual Vein, Wood Spirit Root]
[Cultivation: Dao Palace Realm, First Layer]
[Dao Bone: 28 Years]
[Merit: 50,000]
[Cultivation Techniques: Profound Heavenly Spell (Perfected), Taxuan Skills (Perfected)]
[Martial Techniques: Myriad Swords Return to Origin (Perfected), Soaring Cloud Sword Technique (Perfected)]
[Magical Treasures: Nameless Divine Wood (Unknown), Qingxiao Sword, Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron, Flowing Clouds Daoist Robe]
Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation techniques and swordsmanship had already reached Great Perfection; he was ready to be taught new techniques and martial arts.
Since Lin Qingzhi received the heritage of the Divine Tree Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Ruins, his aptitude had improved, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and he became the first disciple of Qingyun Peak to reach the Dao Palace Realm.
“Come in.”
“Yes.”
“Where have you been for training during this period?”
“Reporting to Master, your disciple returned to the Liang Kingdom and saw my parents.”
“On the path of cultivation, the journey is long and arduous; you must learn to face the partings of life and death.”
“Yes.”
“Today, I shall transmit power to you through an initiation.”
It wasn’t long since Lu Changsheng stepped into the Void Refinement Realm. He continued to accumulate cultivation and aimed to break through to the second layer of the Void Refinement Realm. Since Lin Qingzhi had reached the Dao Palace Realm, he presumably could withstand more of Lu Changsheng’s cultivation.
“But Master, I am already in the Dao Palace Realm…”
Lin Qingzhi hesitated. His realm had already reached the Dao Palace Realm, and if Lu Changsheng continued with the power-infusing initiation, wouldn’t he be afraid of damaging his own cultivation?
Just how much spiritual energy does Master have?
“The cultivation you possess is still far from what I have.”
Lu Changsheng continued with the power-infusing initiation.
[Ding, you have transmitted 600 days of cultivation to your disciple “Lin Qingzhi.” Lin Qingzhi has actually obtained 100 days of cultivation. You have received a hundredfold return reward for teaching a disciple: 10,000 days of cultivation.]
[Ding, the number of power-infusing initiations available today has decreased by 1.]
Thrilling!
Lu Changsheng instantly gained more than twenty years of cultivation. His Qi Sea expanded, bringing him one step closer to the second layer of the Void Refinement Realm.
Indeed, giving a power-infusing initiation to a disciple in the Dao Palace Realm yields a greater return of cultivation.
Lu Changsheng also noticed that advancing each minor realm in the Void Refinement Realm was more difficult compared to when in the Dao Palace Realm.
The Supreme Elder of the Joyous Union Sect had cultivated for one thousand three hundred years and had only reached the second layer of the Void Refinement Realm.
Ordinary cultivators might need hundreds of years just to advance a minor realm or might even remain stuck in one realm indefinitely.
“Master is indeed an Immortal.”
The Qi Sea at the first level of Lin Qingzhi’s Dao Palace Realm was filled to the brim with the spiritual energy transmitted by Lu Changsheng, causing him great discomfort.
What surprised Lin Qingzhi the most was not that Lu Changsheng’s aura had diminished, but that it had become even stronger.
There was only one explanation, that his master was in fact an Immortal.
“Your Profound Heavenly Spell has reached Great Perfection. Today, as your master, I want to teach you a Heaven Rank cultivation technique.”
Lu Changsheng imparted the Sect-Defending Skills of Mount Shu to Lin Qingzhi.
Among Lu Changsheng’s disciples, Lin Qingzhi was the one best suited to cultivate the Taiqing Wuji Technique.
Having already cultivated the Taxuan Skills and the Profound Heavenly Spell as his foundation, Lin Qingzhi could comprehend the first three levels of the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique quite quickly.
“Isn’t this Mount Shu’s Sect-Defending Skills? Can I really learn this technique?”
Lin Qingzhi could not believe it.
The Supreme Purity Limitless Technique was Master’s strongest cultivation technique he had practiced, yet Master did not keep it to himself at all; as soon as he reached the Dao Palace Realm, he directly taught him the most powerful technique.
“You are my disciple, isn’t it quite normal for me to impart techniques to you?”
Lu Changsheng was teaching a Heaven Rank technique and could hardly wait for the return of an Immortal Rank technique.
Lu Changsheng himself practiced the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique and currently stood at the eighth layer, which he hadn’t completely mastered yet. Guiding Lin Qingzhi through the first seven levels was more than manageable.
“Mm.”
Lin Qingzhi listened intently, memorizing the mnemonic verse.
The Master did not hoard knowledge; it was just that Lin Qingzhi’s previous realm had been too low to cultivate the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique.
The reason for Lu Changsheng’s incredibly fast cultivation was his possession of the Innate Taoist Body, which made every cultivation technique and martial art he practiced astonishingly swift.
Lin Qingzhi’s Everlasting Verdant Body was characterized by having ten times the life span and relatively fast true qi recovery speed, yet his comprehension was far inferior to that of the Innate Taoist Body.
Lu Changsheng patiently taught Lin Qingzhi the first five levels of the technique.
[Ding, you have imparted the Heaven Rank top-tier Cultivation Technique “Supreme Purity Limitless Technique” to your disciple “Lin Qingzhi” and have received a hundredfold return reward: Immortal Rank lower-tier Cultivation Technique “Supreme Purity Limitless Technique” (Chapter Ten).]
“Hmm?”
Lu Changsheng was suddenly stunned.
The Supreme Purity Limitless Technique actually had a tenth level?!
Having followed the Sect Leader Taiyuan of Mount Shu to cultivate the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, Lu Changsheng was certain that Mount Shu’s current cultivation technique, the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, only went up to the ninth level at most.
Taiyuan, the strongest of the previous generation on Mount Shu, had also only cultivated the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique up to the ninth level.
To surpass the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, one needed to cultivate existing Immortal Rank techniques or create a new Immortal Rank technique.
Yet, Lu Changsheng had obtained the tenth-level technique of the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique.
According to the records of Mount Shu, the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique was a Heaven Rank technique created by the Ancestral Master of Mount Shu before he ascended to the Immortal Realm; could it be that after ascending, the Ancestral Master continued to refine the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique and thus developed the tenth chapter?
Lu Changsheng’s eyes burned with eagerness.
If Mount Shu were to learn of the existence of a tenth level for the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, it would likely cause an uproar throughout the entire sect.
The Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, among techniques of its level, was prestigious enough to rank near the top.
That is to say, the ninth level of the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique was superior to the vast majority of Heaven Rank top-tier techniques, while the tenth level transcended most Immortal Rank lower-tier techniques.
“Since the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique is the technique of Mount Shu’s Ancestral Master, then I shall claim that the Master appeared to me in a dream, passing on the tenth chapter of the technique. Later, when an appropriate opportunity arises, I will present it to Mount Shu.”
After understanding the tenth level of the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique, Lu Changsheng planned to leave the technique to Mount Shu as an inheritance. After all, it was the Ancestral Master’s technique, and leaving it to Mount Shu as the Sect-Defending Technique was both fitting and reasonable.
He wondered to what extent the power of the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique would reach upon cultivation to the tenth level.
Keep in mind that Taiyuan, the true person, had also only cultivated the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique to the ninth level.
