His Majesty is plotting a rebellion? Quickly, summon the Imperial Advisor!

Upon hearing the system notification, Xu Bingben was about to immediately sign in.

But he suddenly stopped talking, hurriedly put on his clothes, left through the back door, and got into a carriage to head to the Star Gazing Tower.

The sign-in rewards are subject to change to some extent depending on the location and circumstances at the time.

The Imperial Preceptor's Residence is a blessed place, so Xu Bing has signed in there several times in a row. Now he wants to sign in in a different place, and perhaps he will be pleasantly surprised.

The carriage stopped below the Star Gazing Tower. Xu Bing strode to the top of the tower and silently signed in.

This observatory is located in the Azure Dragon City, situated in the Azure Dragon position. Although it is not as auspicious as Xu Bing's place, it is certainly no worse.

It can also collect the purple aura of the rising sun every day.

【Ding! 】

[Check-in successful. Check-in location: Observatory.]

[I have obtained the Purple Aura Breathing Technique!]

【Ding! 】

[Check-in triggers a critical hit.]

[Bonus Reward: Thirty-Six Yama Needles]

……

Xu Bing checked the sign-in rewards and focused his mind on the breathing technique, which is a method of adjusting breathing to exhale and absorb spiritual energy.

This Purple Qi Breathing Method involves a breathing rhythm through the mouth consisting of three long inhales, four pauses, seven breaths, twelve short breaths, thirty-one slow breaths, and so on. Simultaneously, nasal breathing is also rhythmic.

It's quite complicated.

Beginners also need to practice the movements together. Once they have practiced to a certain level and become more proficient, they can then incorporate the movements into their routines.

Once you've reached a high level and completely mastered it, you can maintain this breathing technique indefinitely.

This breathing method can accelerate the absorption of the vital energy circulating between heaven and earth.

They can also collect "purple energy" at sunrise and sunset each day.

The purple aura entering the body has numerous benefits.

In the path of spiritual practice, the fundamental method is the root and stem, and the breathing method is responsible for gathering the vital energy of heaven and earth. At the same time, different breathing methods have effects beyond just absorbing vital energy.

For example, this Purple Qi Breathing Technique can collect purple qi, so other breathing techniques can also absorb other things.

Xu Bingyin did not know much about cultivation and had never used the "breathing method" before.

He only relied on his willpower and the "Longevity Breathing Method" he learned on the immortal mountain to harvest the vital energy between heaven and earth.

He didn't think much of it at first, assuming that everyone practiced this breathing method.

Only today, after signing in and receiving a copy of the Purple Qi Breathing Technique, did I realize that I was missing something so important.

"So breathing techniques are this effective?" Xu Bing thought to himself, annoyed.

He thought that with the Imperial Creation Technique, his cultivation methods were already top-of-the-line.

I never expected there to be so many intricacies involved.

"System, I'm missing a breathing technique, why didn't you say so earlier?" Xu Bing muttered to himself.

[The host didn't ask.]

"..." Xu Bing was speechless for a moment.

[Actually, the host doesn't lack breathing techniques.]

[The Imperial Creation Technique is an invincible fundamental method, which actually contains breathing techniques, circulation techniques, and even spells... but the host has not yet comprehended them.]

"?" Xu Bing was taken aback. He could roughly understand what the system meant; the Imperial Creation Technique was an abstract book.

Different people see different things, and naturally, they understand different things as well.

His understanding of the Imperial Creation Technique is still immature and shallow, so whenever he tries to comprehend this technique, he finds it extremely complicated and mentally taxing.

Xu Bing told the system about his condition.

[The host's current condition is due to the fact that he has not yet truly mastered the Art of Creation.]

[However, host, there is no need to be impatient. Having cultivated the invincible technique, one must bear its weight.]

[Once the host reaches the first level of the Domain One Creation Technique, they will be able to truly experience the profound mystery of this technique.]

"Different layers?" Xu Bing suddenly realized that he had imagined cultivation to be too simple.

The system did not respond further.

As for the other sign-in reward: Thirty-Six Yama Needles, although it sounds imposing, it is actually a precious book about medical skills.

It does not belong to the category of magic.

It doesn't even belong to the category of magic arts. If it did, Xu Bing would be furious. Magic arts are mostly half-true and half-false scams. Apart from feng shui surveys, which have some use, other magic arts are really not worth mentioning.

The Thirty-Six Yama Needles is a medical technique belonging to the mortal realm; it is an essential work of medical knowledge.

It includes acupuncture, massage, observation, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation; meridians and acupoints; medicine prescriptions; and the properties and pharmacology of medicines...

This knowledge flooded into Xu Bing's mind at that moment.

Most of the difficult and complicated diseases were no longer a problem for him. In some cases, he could even snatch lives from the jaws of death!

"The Hand of Yama, snatching life from before Yama."

Among the Thirty-Six Yama Needles, the massage technique is extremely exquisite, going beyond simply treating illnesses and saving lives.

Combined with acupuncture, there are many things that can be done.

……

This gain was substantial. After returning to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, Xu Bing began to practice the Purple Qi Breathing Method.

In the first ten or so times, Xu Bing practiced until he almost suffocated and couldn't breathe.

Moreover, his whole body ached, and he felt an inexplicable fatigue. Xu Bing ordered someone to cook two bowls of rice, which he ate cleanly before continuing his practice.

If a knowledgeable Qi cultivator saw this, they would probably scold him for being reckless.

Breathing exercises cannot be rushed. If you fail four times in a row in one day, you can only try again the next day.

Otherwise, respiratory disorders can lead to hidden ailments throughout the body.

However, Xu Bing didn't care about any of that.

A perfect mortal body, created with all one's might.

So...

This breathing technique, which others might take six months or even a whole year to master, is one that others might only be able to achieve successfully.

Xu Bing succeeded in his first attempt in just one night.

It was exactly the hour of Mao (5-7 AM).

As the sun rose in the east, a faint, almost imperceptible wisp of pale purple mist drifted in through his mouth and nose…

Using this breathing technique, he collected the first wisp of purple energy.

Despite its blandness, it was a success.

When Xu Bing opened his eyes, he found that his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was more tired than if he had practiced martial arts all night.

However, the harvest was extremely rich.

The efficiency of cultivation has increased threefold, and this is only the initial stage.

The cultivation of the Lantern Realm is mainly divided into two parts.

The first part involves gathering the primordial energy of heaven and earth, absorbing it into the body through a circulation method, and then using it to temper the physical body and strengthen the Dao lamp...

The other part is walking in the beginning, where every step is a test.

The two can be done simultaneously, but Xu Bing is not yet familiar with the Purple Qi Breathing Method.

Last night I focused on practicing breathing techniques and did not enter the Primordial State again.

……

White Tiger City District.

West Gate.

People come and go in an endless stream.

Escort teams from agencies like Yuanfei Escort Agency and Changhong Escort Agency are ubiquitous.

They emerged from the west gate and went their separate ways, all in a hurry, with few lingering.

Today, however, there is a person standing at the city gate, head slightly tilted back, eyes brimming with tears.

I followed his gaze.

They discovered that a head was hanging high above the city gate.

"My disciple, your master has arrived."

"Once we have avenged our great grudge, we will take your head to avoid alerting the enemy."

With a calm expression, the Purple Cloud Immortal flicked his sleeves and strode into Da Xi City.
