Chapter 537 Method
The Divine Image Cave, beneath the gate tower.

Chen Mu lay in the rocking chair, staring at the young lady on the water screen in front of the door with a melancholy expression.

"Having too high a cultivation level isn't good either..."

Yesterday, I excitedly went to Yicui Tower in Luandu County, but once I got close, the exceptionally beautiful girls in the water curtain suddenly lost their charm.

The transformation brought about by the ninth layer of the Divine Aperture Talisman is greater than that of the previous eight layers combined. Not only has the jade seed expanded several times, but the body has also been completely reshaped from the inside out.

His keen eyesight allowed him to clearly see through the heavy makeup on the girls' faces, and his sensitive sense of smell allowed him to clearly distinguish the body odor hidden under the sachets.

In the brothels, where people clink glasses and shout, the atmosphere is a cacophony of various smells, making it not a very pleasant experience.

"Indeed, beauty is created by the haziness of distance; once you get too close... tsk!"

"The perfection of this divine aperture is not necessarily all good things."

……

three days later.

At the window on the second floor of the Bai Sui Tea House in Luandu County, Chen Mu threw a fried peanut into his mouth and crunched it.

He raised an eyebrow in satisfaction as he savored the rich, oily flavor that slowly spread through his mouth.

With a slight twitch of the ears, all the various noises in the lobby on the first floor were eliminated, leaving only the rhythmic and melodious storytelling voice.

"When General Jin Wuxia stepped into the Erjun Temple, everything went black. When he came to his senses, he saw that the once majestic and ancient Taoist temple was now just ruins, as if thousands of years had passed in an instant."

General Jin's heart skipped a beat...

Snapped!
A sound of a gavel striking the table came from the lobby on the first floor.

"Hehe! To find out what happens next, please stay tuned for the next episode."

Chen Mu couldn't help but grin.

You're such a short-form dog.

Before he could finish his exclamation, a loud, boisterous shout suddenly came from downstairs.

"Hey, if you dare to stay here, I'll sleep at your house tonight!"

Pretty!

This big man urging me to update doesn't seem like a decent person.

"Great! I'll leave the door open for you tonight!"

Chen Mu's face twitched; he could actually hear the joy in the storyteller's voice.

Tsk!
This storyteller, Mr. He, doesn't seem to be a very respectable person either.

Chen Mu chuckled.

This wasn't his first time visiting the Bai Sui Tea House to listen to storytelling; every time he came, he could feel a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.

The people were all strong and healthy with rosy complexions, a world apart from the ordinary people he had known before.

It seems that the entire Daqian government cares a lot about the people and is doing everything it can to ensure their survival.

"Could the rulers of ancient feudal society be so kind?" Chen Mu shook his head in disbelief: "I'm afraid it's because of the underworld."

The underworld needs to cultivate spirits in the mortal world, which is why it indirectly affects the human world, maintains stability, and ensures the survival of the people.

"I really don't know whether these people are lucky or unlucky," Chen Mu shook his head.

"Forget it, it's enough to know about such a major event that affects the whole world. I have no right to judge it."

"Instead of wasting time, you might as well think about how to cultivate in the future."

Shaking his head slightly, Chen Mu popped a peanut into his mouth and listened to the rhythmic storytelling coming from downstairs again. He began to ponder his future cultivation path.

The Yin Spirit side represented by the Heavenly Demon Body is stuck at the Divine Embryo realm and cannot be perfected in a short time.

For a normal Yin spirit to cultivate a divine embryo, it would take decades or even centuries of patient cultivation; he didn't expect to break through in just a few years. His primary concern was cultivating as a Qi Refiner.

Although the cultivation of Qi is tedious and complex, it is a steady and gradual process that leads directly to the heavens. It is not as dangerous as the unorthodox methods of the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique, nor does it require the arduous time required for the cultivation of Yin Spirits.

"Based on the scattered information I saw at the Jilongdao Scripture Transmission Academy, the next step should be to refine the River Chariot, also known as Yin-Yang Refinement, following the steps of combining the Jade Seed, gathering the Yuan Talisman, and concentrating the Spirit Aperture."

"The main purpose is to use the Primordial Qi to transform the Divine Aperture and Jade Seed, in preparation for condensing the Dao Foundation. Unfortunately, my Yellow Springs General Principles came from touching corpses, so the inheritance is incomplete."

"There is no information about Yin-Yang refinement, and there is no secret method for finding and collecting Primordial Qi."

"trouble……"

Chen Mu scratched his head.

Yunzhou has changed drastically. Jilong Road, Liyang Road, and Chongshan Road have either disappeared or been relocated.

Of the seven routes in Yunzhou, three are already gone, and the other four are scattered all over the country, too far from the Great Qian Dynasty. Moreover, the spiritual energy of the entire Yunzhou region has dissipated, so their situation is probably not much better.

The survival of Qi cultivators in the Great Qian Dynasty is difficult, and most of the small sects have perished. If one wants to obtain the secret method of refining, the closest way is probably to go to the Ten Thousand Mountains.

"It's a pity I can't even leave Luandu County, how can I get to the Ten Thousand Mountains?" Chen Mu scratched his head.

In the end, he encountered the same problem he had at the beginning: he first had to leave the Divine Image Cave Heaven, otherwise all his thinking would be in vain.

"Disaster!"

……

The Divine Image Cave and the City God's Main Hall.

Chen Mu lay sprawled on the offering table, his right hand supporting his face, squinting at the distant blue sky through the wide main hall doors.

With a flick of his left wrist, bright white lightning flashed between his fingers, accompanied by a series of rumbling thunderclaps that echoed and lingered in the hall, like the sound of ocean waves.

"As expected of the Yellow Springs General Treatise, its magical power is truly profound," Chen Mu exclaimed.

The interior of the enormous jade is now completely filled with white mist-like magical power that is about to condense into water droplets.

At the center, the nine layers of magical symbols nested together rotated slowly and disorderly, constantly absorbing the external earth's spiritual energy and transforming it into magical power to be stored in the jade seed space.

The mana consumed by each use of Kui Shui Yin Lei is replenished in just a few breaths.

"No wonder Sun Jian, that old devil, was able to run rampant in Jilongdao for so many years."

"His magical power is several times greater than others, and his recovery is exceptionally fast. Combined with powerful lightning magic, he's practically a perpetual motion machine of lightning cannons."

"Let's get this going!" Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

He now possesses many formidable skills. On the Yin Spirit side, he has the Five Dragon Dharma Form and Yin Wind Escape; on the Qi Refining side, he has the Five Ghosts Possessed by a Giant Spirit God.

However, these secret techniques either appear eerie or involve clothing rips and transformations, making the user look like a bad person.

"If one were to use the Rainbow Light to escape across the land, combined with the majestic and domineering Kui Water Yin Thunder, the style would be..."

"Get scrolling! You absolutely have to get scrolling!"

He excitedly performed the shock dozens of times in a row, only stopping when he was completely numb from the electric shock.

Squinting at the few white clouds floating in the vast blue sky for a while, Chen Mu began to think about how to escape.

"I'm afraid we'll still have to rely on the Heart-to-Heart Mantra and the Lingbao Cardinal Chapter."

The Lingbao Cardinal Chapter originates from the Divine Image Cave Heaven. The more proficient one becomes in it, the clearer one's understanding of the City God's Daoist Temple will be. If one can master it to its limit, one might even be able to see through the restrictions of the City God's Daoist Temple.

While immediate escape is impossible, it will certainly be of great help in finding a way out.

The Heart-to-Heart Mantra has a chance to connect the celestial demon body and the flesh and blood body regardless of distance.

At that time, the Heavenly Demon Body can sit in the Divine Statue Cave Heaven, while the flesh and blood body will be like a kite with an infinitely long string, able to break away from the cave heaven and fly high and far.

"The Heavenly Demon's true form is a Yin Soul Monster, which cannot merge with the Yin Nether Worm."

"But what if we reversed it and had the Heavenly Demon Body implant the Yin-Nether Worm into the flesh and blood body?" Chen Mu's eyes immediately lit up.
