One sword cheat

Chapter 61 Mythical Qi Refining and Cultivation Techniques

Here we go again, asking questions once more.

How could Chen Ren know any of this? So he remained silent.

[Ding: Old Wu's sword-drawing skill +100.]

"You brat, at least answer me! Have I been talking to myself all this time?"

Old Wu glared at him with displeasure, then continued, "The Bitter Sea Technique has been passed down since the First Emperor, passed down by countless people generation after generation, and its lineage has never been broken."

"The creators' original intention was to allow people to possess a trace of innate power in the acquired realm. Their goal was never the acquired realm, but the innate realm."

"Six hundred years ago, someone successfully mastered the Bitter Sea Technique and survived three blows from a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm. This completely established the Bitter Sea Technique's great reputation."

He smiled at Chen Ren and said, "Have you ever seen any cultivation technique that allows someone with the acquired cultivation level to withstand the Foundation Establishment stage?"

That's why it's so expensive. At this price, let alone 90 million, Chen Ren thinks a lot of people would buy it even if it were 900 million.

What is Foundation Establishment? It's a powerful being whose strength is comparable to that of a god.

Don't be fooled by the fact that his master is a Foundation Establishment cultivator and the old man Wu in front of him is also a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He can interact with them at will, but that's because these are the only powerful people left in the Shangqing Palace.

If it were the Celestial Master Cave, Zhang Yunqing, with her mediocre aptitude, would only have Wenren Yu, who was at the Qi Refining Realm, as her master, and would hardly have even seen her reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

Any Foundation Establishment cultivator is an extraordinary figure, a pillar of their sect or school.

And now, you're telling him there's a technique that can withstand three full-force blows from a Foundation Establishment cultivator without dying?

This is no longer a martial arts technique; this is a famous sword, a Central Asian hourglass!

"Actually, you've already reached the ninth level of Qi and Blood, and you're about to break through to the Acquired Realm. Perfect timing, I should also talk to you about this Acquired Realm."

Old Wu was in a good mood today, so he picked up the prayer mat from the ground and sat down, then said to Chen Ren:

"This Acquired Realm is different. Do you even know what the Acquired Realm is?"

Before Chen Ren could speak, he continued, "The so-called acquired is actually just a distinction between the acquired and the innate."

Okay, okay, Chen Ren was just talking to us, but now he won't let us speak.

Chen Ren's words were stuck in his throat, so he could only continue listening.

"Anything below the innate is acquired. This realm is about making every effort to strengthen oneself. Theoretically speaking, even if you grow to look like Superman in the movies, it is still acquired."

"Unlike the first realm, where the body gradually adapts, a level of one hundred jin of strength is considered the standard set by the ancient realm."

"Because there are no standards anymore, the path you choose to take becomes especially important, and the cultivation method becomes even more crucial."

Old Wu took a light puff of his pipe: "With ordinary cultivation techniques, even if you cultivate to the ninth level of the Acquired Realm, you can at most only achieve the ability to destroy mountains and shatter peaks."

"But powerful techniques are different. Theoretically speaking, they can destroy mountains and shatter peaks at the first stage of the Acquired Realm."

The difference is alarmingly large.

Chen Ren recalled the scene when the man in black kicked Tao Yuniang across the steps, injuring her. So that's how it was.

Old Wu instructed Chen Ren, "If you can cultivate a good technique, then try to cultivate the best one. Don't be afraid of loans and the like. The economy needs stimulation to grow."

"The stronger you are, the better you will be at repaying your debts."

"Grandmaster Uncle, I'm saying I'm also a disciple of Shangqing Palace, don't you have any cultivation techniques to reward me with?"

Chen Ren started asking for benefits; putting everything else aside, he had to get a copy of this cultivation technique.

"None of my business."

Old Wu spread his hands: "I still owe you dozens of small goals, where am I supposed to get you some cultivation techniques?"

It turned out that his grandmaster was also penniless. He told Chen Ren directly that Zhang Yunqing owed only a small amount and that he should go find his master.

How could Chen Ren possibly go to his master at this time? So he was filled with resentment.

[Ding: Sword drawing skill +99.]

"By the way, could you clean up the Sanqing Hall later? It hasn't been cleaned for three months since you left."

Old Wu waved his hand and walked out of the main hall, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Chen Ren, speechless and gritting his teeth, kicked the prayer mat: "You old geezer! Not only do you not give me any benefits, but you haven't cleaned for three months, are you just waiting for me to come?"

[Ding: Sword drawing skill +30.]

He started wiping and mopping the floor while cursing, but no matter what, the patriarch still had to be respected.

But when he tidied the prayer cushion, he found that it felt lighter than usual.

Underneath the futon, a USB flash drive had been placed there at some point.

The Azure Waves

Chen Ren's hand immediately froze in mid-air.

Outside the main hall, after seeing that he had obtained the USB drive, Old Man Wu left with peace of mind. After all, he had spent money to buy it, and he would have been heartbroken for a long time if he had lost it.

"I'm still too soft-hearted."

He shook his head: "That's strange. Why did I agree to Yunqing's request so easily? Am I her senior uncle or her master?"

It has to be said that Shangqing Palace is like this; although you can't see anyone there most of the time, it always gives you some warmth.

Chen Ren looked at Bi Tao Jue's USB drive. This thing wasn't something you could just plug into a computer and use; it would give you an address and a verification code.

Once you take the verification code to the address, you will find the teacher who will instruct you in the Bitao Technique, and he will teach you step by step.

Furthermore, one must swear by one's Dao heart not to reveal this to outsiders. In this ancient realm, cause and effect and karma are sensitive matters, and making oaths carelessly and then breaking them can lead to a terrible death.

Otherwise, the techniques would have become commonplace long ago.

Moved, Chen Ren immediately put the USB drive on Xianyu (a Chinese online marketplace).

After receiving guidance from a powerful figure, he no longer looked down on so-called "ordinary cultivation techniques" and his target had clearly become the Bitter Sea Technique.

As for wood-element cultivation techniques like the Longevity Cultivation Technique, once you reach the Acquired Realm, the best one is the Undying Demon Body, which also has a starting price of 9000 million.

It is said that after cultivating to the extreme, the physical body will not decay, and if it does, it can be reborn in the blink of an eye.

Although it has the word "demon" in its name, it's definitely not a forbidden technique; it's incredibly powerful.

That adds up to 1.8 small goals; even if you cut it once, it would still require 1800 million!

Chen Ren currently only has 1690 million, but fortunately, he will gain another 4 million after selling the Bitao Technique, which will allow him to purchase some cultivation resources.

Chen Ren couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of a mythical Qi Refining technique. I wonder what the scenery will be like when I reach the Foundation Establishment stage."

The person who transmitted the Bitter Sea Technique has not yet returned; we will have to wait a few days. Chen Ren has not yet fully mastered the prerequisite technique for the Undying Demon Body, so it will be temporarily put on hold until after the end of the year.

Now, he is making use of all the spirit stones in his hand. In addition to practicing the Longevity Technique, he also needs to practice the Shangqing Great Cave True Scripture.

He planned to solidify his foundation in the Qi and Blood Realm. Wasn't he supposed to go down the mountain to hunt at the end of the year? The tasks of the Acquired Realm were completely different from those of the Qi and Blood Realm, and he didn't plan to force a breakthrough to the Acquired Realm before then.

We must lay a solid foundation in order to go further in the future.

With a fixed minimum of 200 sword-drawing points per day, Chen Renhua cuts off 100 of his time for practicing the Longevity Skill, and spends the remaining 24 hours practicing the Great Cave True Scripture and condensing Qi into his body.

The last hundred is to sever the karma and cause and effect on one's body.

In the past, it would have been enough to just cut it off every now and then, but things are different now.

He simultaneously condenses his Qi and increases his blood and Qi. His karmic accumulation is naturally fast. The fire spirit root in his body, the heart fire Qi, the kidney water Qi, and the liver wood Qi all grow at the same time. The speed at which his karmic accumulation increases is three times that of others!

Whenever he had to draw his sword to sever the calamity energy, he would always want to run down the mountain, spend the money he had, and his cultivation would feel stagnant. Even the Shangqing Immortal Light could not completely block these things.

Cultivation is indeed a struggle against fate, fraught with tribulations.

After killing them, he immediately calmed down. If he didn't use his cheat code, Chen Ren felt that he would really have to go down the mountain to face the calamity.
