In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

"Li Yang was able to condense his primordial spirit when he broke through to the Golden Core stage by relying on the innate spiritual energy that was nourished by his merits."

If someone else achieves minor success in the Pure Yin Yin Technique and cultivates together with Pure Yang Zi using their Pure Yin Primordial Spirit, could they also control the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram together with Pure Yang Zi and unleash its full power?

"Do you want me to achieve minor success in cultivating the Pure Yang Dao Technique?"

"Ok!"

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded. In a short period of time, only the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace could master the Pure Yin Technique.

As for the disciples of the Jade Pool Immortal Palace, obtaining the Pure Yin Manual might not necessarily allow them to begin their studies.

Moreover, the Pure Yin Manual is divided into four parts, and the major breakthroughs between each part are like insurmountable barriers. Without the right opportunity, it would be impossible to break through the last two parts.

"any request?"

Although the Palace Mistress of Yaochi Palace is a homebody, she is not an idiot.

She naturally understood that the cultivation success Zhang Xiaoshan mentioned was definitely not her current state of cultivation; at the very least, she needed to condense a pure Yin primordial spirit.

However, since the Pure Yin Manual had now given rise to the "Transformation of Spirit" and "Return to Emptiness" chapters, she had no reservations.

The profound mysteries of the Pure Yin Technique are by no means inferior to those of the Taiyin Qi Cultivation Technique.

The fact that Zhang Xiaoshan chose the name "Tao" demonstrates his confidence.

"．‖ Yin and Yang are united, the origin carries the Tao."

If the conditions set forth by Chunyangzi are met, then the Palace Master can not only directly cross that threshold, but the innate spiritual energy from the merit feedback will condense into a pure Yin primordial spirit, far surpassing the power of Taiyin magic.

"Shameless!"

The Palace Mistress of Yaochi blushed, her beautiful eyes brimming with spring water, and glared at Zhang Xiaoshan with a mixture of shyness and anger.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaoshan was so rebellious. She was nominally Zhang Xiaoshan's master, yet he dared to make such a request.

"I have offended Chunyangzi. Palace Master, please consider this disciple's words a slip of the tongue!"

Looking at Zhang Xiaoshan, who suddenly became serious and gentlemanly, showing no trace of his previous lewdness, the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace immediately felt that she had misunderstood something.

Perhaps Zhang Xiaoshan's suggestion was just unintentional?

Moreover, considering the profound mystery of the Taiji Primordial Spirit, perhaps Zhang Xiaoshan was simply verifying his own conjecture.

After all, Zhang Xiaoshan and Li Yang are currently Daoist partners, but this relationship has only just been established.

If there is a problem with Li Yang, then Taiji Yuan Shen (Qian Zhao Hao) will never be complete.

"Chunyangzi? Are you confident?"

"This... I cannot give the Palace Master an answer; this is merely Chunyangzi's conjecture."

However, with the innate spiritual energy feeding back and the convergence of pure yin and primordial yang energies, the palace master can at least achieve minor success in the Pure Yin Yin Technique and condense the Pure Yin Primordial Spirit.

As for how much benefit the Palace Master would receive, Chunyangzi dared not say.

"We'll give it a try, but you mustn't tell anyone, not even Li Yang!"

The Mistress of Yaochi Palace possessed a beautiful and charming face, and her alluring demeanor was like that of a femme fatale who could bring ruin to a country. She was naturally seductive and could bewitch all living beings.

After all, both the Taiji Primordial Spirit and the innate spiritual energy were extremely tempting to the Palace Mistress of Yaochi. Moreover, once the Pure Yin Primordial Spirit was condensed, the hidden dangers in her cultivation would be basically resolved.

The Taiyin Manual is too extreme, which is why the Kunlun Immortal Palace is entirely populated by women.

Moreover, as a woman who had been a homebody and single for two hundred years, or perhaps because of a mutual attraction between the living and the dead, the Palace Mistress of Yaochi secretly felt a surge of anticipation.

Chapter 957 Primordial Spirit Auspicious Cloud Immortal Slaying Sword Technique

'By accumulating one hundred million merits, I will comprehend the auspicious clouds of my primordial spirit!'

By using the origins of pure Yin and primordial Yang, one can cultivate the primordial spirit and enter the most primitive Yin-Yang state.

At the same time, in order to break the 'curse' of the Yin Yuanling, Zhang Xiaoshan directly sacrificed 100 million merits. Under the pretext of comprehending the Yuanshen Qingyun, he guided the innate spiritual energy in the giant bell space to nourish the Zifu space, helping the Yaochi Palace Master to condense the pure Yin Yuanling.

At the same time, the Yuan Shen Qingyun Immortal Technique that Zhang Xiaoshan comprehended could also be transmitted to the Yaochi Palace Master through the Yuan Shen Co-cultivation state.

Zhang Xiaoshan may be scheming, but he would never mistreat his own people.

Moreover, given that she was willing to risk her life and sacrifice herself for him, how could Zhang Xiaoshan possibly let her down?

Boom!

In the depths of darkness, another ancient bell tolled, cleansing the primordial spirit.

The primordial spirit of the Jade Pool Palace Master was also shaken. Before she could guess where the bell sound came from, a surge of innate spiritual energy, like a giant wave, rushed into her Purple Mansion. The Nine Provinces Cauldron shone brightly with golden light, and the nine-colored mist inside overflowed and surged like a spring.

In an instant, the primordial spirit Taiji within the Purple Mansion spun wildly, absorbing the vast and boundless innate spiritual energy.

At this moment, the two were in a state of joint cultivation of their primordial spirits, and the Pure Yang and Pure Yin techniques were constantly in operation.

This is the foundation of joint practice!

Therefore, the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace also gained immense benefits from this frantic cultivation of primordial spiritual energy.

Moreover, in her state of enlightenment, the Jade Pool Palace Master's Pure Yin Yin Technique seemed to have no bottlenecks, improving at a visible speed. In just a short while, 873 condensed a Pure Yin Primordial Spirit and simultaneously occupied the Yin Yin side of the Taiji Diagram.

This was merely a prelude to the reward of merit, yet it allowed the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace to directly achieve her goal of seclusion.

At the same time, a divine imprint of the Heavenly Dao on the Nine Provinces Cauldron shone brightly amidst the nine-colored mist.

The Palace Master of Yaochi Palace could not enter the giant bell space, but she could sense the Heavenly Dao imprint on the Nine Provinces Cauldron, which seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the Heavenly Dao, making her involuntarily fascinated by it.

This is the most profound and precious existence within the Purple Mansion.

···

Yuan Shen Qingyun!

After an unknown period of time, as the merit feedback ended, the Heavenly Dao Divine Patterns within the giant bell space had completely deciphered the Heavenly Dao Imprint of the ancient divine power.

Even the innate spiritual energy and nine-colored mist that benefited from his merits gave rise to a ten-zhang-long (approximately 33 meters) of dazzling golden auspicious cloud within Zhang Xiaoshan's Purple Mansion. Beneath it, countless jewels and goddesses danced, as if immortals and gods had descended, sacred and inviolable.

This is the ancient immortal technique – Yuan Shen Qing Yun.

Although Yuan Shen Qing Yun is not the strongest defensive divine power in ancient times, it can be used as a derivative of Yuan Shen magic power and can also resist various Yuan Shen attacks.

Moreover, Yuan Shen Qingyun is the signature of the orthodox Xuanmen sect.

Just as a Buddha is adorned with gold, appearing before the world with his primordial spirit auspicious clouds, he is even more impressive than a celestial being descended to earth.

Moreover, even if Yuan Shen Qingyun were to directly confront the attack of Nanming Li Huo, Zhang Xiaoshan would not be afraid in the slightest.

Within the Primordial Spirit Taiji Diagram.

At this moment, the Palace Master of Yaochi, who had already occupied a corner of Yin, felt the vast aura of the Yuan Shen Qingyun and the auspicious omen. She was also shocked that Zhang Xiaoshan had actually cultivated an ancient immortal technique.

By observing and analyzing the markings on the Nine Cauldrons, we can understand the process of the primordial spirit condensing auspicious clouds...

The Palace Master of Yaochi Palace has already mastered the method of cultivating the Primordial Spirit Auspicious Cloud.

But it was precisely because she knew how to cultivate the Primordial Spirit Cloud that the Palace Master of Yaochi understood that she could not possibly condense her own Primordial Spirit Cloud.

Innate spiritual energy, nine-colored mist, and the power of the mystical sect!

Besides the pure magical power of the Xuanmen, the innate spiritual energy that dissipated in ancient times and the nine-colored mist descended by the Heavenly Dao are all things that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be sought after. Even if the cultivation world does not have any unique skills, it is impossible to meet the requirements of condensing the primordial spirit auspicious cloud.

Moreover, only after becoming one of the poles of the Primordial Spirit Taiji Diagram did the Palace Master of Yaochi realize that Zhang Xiaoshan's Primordial Spirit Taiji Diagram actually possessed the great supernatural power of Yin and Yang Qi.

In this way, Zhang Xiaoshan mastered two ancient divine abilities.

"I will accumulate one hundred million merits to comprehend the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique!"

Zhang Xiaoshan once again used his merit to try and analyze another ancient immortal technique—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique.

The Palace Master of Yaochi Palace felt the primordial spiritual energy surge forth once more, but before she could even be shocked, the Taiji Diagram's primordial spirit had already begun to spin again, frantically devouring the primordial spiritual energy.

At the same time, the Heavenly Dao Divine Patterns shone brightly, and nine-colored mists filled the air, causing the mark on the Nine Provinces Cauldron to reappear.

The Palace Mistress of Yaochi immediately realized that this was yet another ancient immortal technique.

Using innate spiritual energy to cultivate Yin and Yang primordial spirit, and refining the auspicious cloud and pure Yang cauldron with nine-colored mist, the Jade Pool Palace Master's mind was also immersed in the analysis of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique.

Inside the giant bronze bell, Zhang Xiaoshan's consciousness was also immersed in the divine runes of the Heavenly Dao, unable to extricate himself.

In a short period of time, after performing two meritorious rituals, Zhang Xiaoshan's enormous amount of merit accumulated over the years was basically depleted.

If it weren't for the considerable amount of time he had spent in seclusion, Zhang Xiaoshan wouldn't even have enough merit to analyze and comprehend the Zhuxian Sword Technique.

After a long while, as the innate spiritual energy dissipated, the nine-colored, misty spring...

Zhang Xiaoshan and the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace both awoke from their enlightenment cultivation.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique!

This is a powerful ancient divine ability, arguably the best for offensive combat.

However, the prerequisite for cultivating this Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique is to first condense terrifying killing sword energy; otherwise, all the merits Zhang Xiaoshan accumulated would be useless.

How then can one condense the killing sword energy?

There are two methods in the Heavenly Dao Divine Pattern: one is slaughter, killing people, killing living beings, and killing gods, to prove the Dao through killing.

Secondly, they found a place of extreme darkness and demonic energy, and used secret methods to absorb the purest innate malevolent energy in the world to condense innate killing sword energy.

The conditions were extremely demanding, even more so than those for the primordial spirit Qingyun.

The first method, in particular, requires killing ten thousand people to condense a single wisp of killing sword energy, and it takes ten thousand wisps of killing sword energy to condense a single killing sword energy, and it's a one-time thing.

Only when one has fully condensed a true killing sword aura can one meet the entry requirements of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique.

During this period, there might not be enough humans in the entire land of China to kill.

Compared to Zhang Xiaoshan's distress and regret, the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace was utterly horrified.

Unexpectedly, the second ancient immortal technique that Zhang Xiaoshan comprehended was actually the strongest offensive divine power of ancient times—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique.

Moreover, just now the Heavenly Dao Mark shone brightly, and the Palace Master of Yaochi understood that Zhang Xiaoshan had already unlocked the Divine Power Mark.

Subsequently, Zhang Xiaoshan did not keep anything to himself and passed on the cultivation method of the Immortal Slaying Sword Technique to the Palace Master of Yaochi Palace.

"Killing Sword Qi?"

No wonder no one in the Daoist sect has been able to master the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Technique since ancient times; you've wasted an opportunity to comprehend an ancient divine power.

"Not necessarily, there is another way."

"Only by finding the Yin-Yang Demonic Land can one condense innate killing sword energy, and innate killing sword energy is the true ancient divine power."

The first type of killing sword energy is demonic, and Zhang Xiaoshan would never do it.

This is digging one's own grave.

The second option is to go to the Xuan Yin Yin Demon Land. Kunlun disciples throughout the ages have gone there, but almost all of them never returned.

After all, the ancient Taoist sects left behind ten immortal techniques, so how could they not have methods for cultivating them?

Zhang Xiaoshan's comprehension of the merits he cultivated was merely for the purpose of cultivating with the Palace Mistress of Yaochi Palace.

Moreover, the cultivation methods derived from the analysis of the Heavenly Dao Divine Runes are not only more comprehensive and secure, but also have the imprint of the Heavenly Dao Divine Runes as a seed of supernatural power.

Chapter 958 Descending from the Xuan Yin Demon Realm Again

"Ancient Celestial Weapon - Silver Frost!"

Old Taoist Xuanxu, are you planning to drain me dry in one go?

Having mentioned top-tier magical artifacts, you're going to arrange an ancient immortal weapon instead? That would be several times the merit.

Moreover, during this period, all the merits I accumulated were used to strengthen the Dragon-Slaying Sword and cultivate the three great divine abilities. I only have the merits from the past two years that I received from the lower realm.

Strengthening this Silver Frost Sword requires at least 30 million merit points, roughly the same as the Heavenly Refining Furnace.

Jade Void Hall.

Listening to Zhang Xiaoshan's complaints, the old Taoist Xuanxu had no reason to doubt Zhang Xiaoshan's reasoning.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoshan had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and his powerful and profound pure Yang aura was in no way inferior to that of his own disciple who had cultivated for hundreds of years. It was evident that Zhang Xiaoshan's progress during this period was all due to the accumulation of merit.

As for the Legend of Sword and Fairy: Silver Frost?

It was also the second disciple, Tongxuan, who was preparing to undergo tribulation, and this immortal sword was his protective magic weapon.

You must know that the Heavenly Tribulation is a matter of life and death.

Therefore, in making preparations, the old Taoist Xuanxu naturally had to consider his disciple's feelings, thus breaking his previous promise.
