Courtyard House: My Time Travel is a Bit Too Strong

With his entire family comprised of top-tier experts, even the weakest among them reaching the level of a Universe Venerable, Zhong Guohong felt grounded and satisfied.

He glanced at the calendar and realized that in a few years, he would be a thousand years old.

"Lin Kingdom is too weak. Relying on them to explore and replicate the Milky Way would be both time-consuming and laborious."

"My current spiritual range has reached a radius of 10 billion light-years; while the diameter of the replicated Milky Way is only a little over 3 million light-years. With just a sweep of my spiritual sense, all the conditions within it will immediately appear before my eyes."

The thought had barely formed in his mind when he had already flashed into the replica Earth.

Vast divine sense spread out with a roar, and in an instant, the entire replicated Milky Way appeared in perfect detail.

As his divine sense swept over the statues of gods and the various cultivation techniques, they clearly appeared in his mind.

With a slight thought, Zhong Guohong pulled everything from tens of thousands of miles away, deep within the Earth's core, and into the crevices of stellar remains, over by an invisible force.

"No spirit stones, no immortal stones, and no divine stones were seen—the entire replica of the Milky Way has probably been emptied out by cultivators long ago."

The temple was filled with statues of deities who worshipped the techniques, and the stone boxes were filled with jade slips inscribed with secret arts.

He unearthed all the treasures buried deep within the planets and swept them all away.

"Fragments of magical artifacts are scattered everywhere, but the only intact one is the God-Slaying Spear."

This spear is originally named the Purple Cloud God-Slaying Spear. Its grade is on par with the Chaos Bell, both belonging to the top-grade innate treasures.

He cut his fingertip, and the blood seeped into the gun barrel. In an instant, the gun's shadow disappeared and sank steadily into the depths of his consciousness.

"The entire replica galaxy was turned upside down, and only three complete magical artifacts were found: the Chaos Bell, the God-Slaying Spear, and the Minghong Blade; the rest were all fragments, too numerous to count."

He took a deep breath, sat quietly to regulate his breathing, and slowly sorted out the surging flow of information in his mind.

In addition to the inherited cultivation methods left by various sects and ancient clans, they also collected a large number of spells, immortal techniques, and divine techniques.

All three categories belong to the Taoist arts lineage: Qi cultivators use magic, immortals use immortal arts, and divine beings use divine arts.

Essentially, they all invoke the power of the laws of heaven and earth, differing only in their level and magnitude of power.

Confirmed from memory: cultivators who have not yet ascended to immortality are generally called Qi Refiners or True Cultivators.

"The Supreme Refining Technique? The secret art of alchemy and weapon crafting that Laozi kept secret?"

Upon catching a glimpse of the list of techniques, Chung Kwok-hung felt a surge of excitement, almost unable to contain himself.

It encompasses everything, including alchemy and the art of crafting, and promotes both.

"The Thirty-Six Heavenly Methods? The Seventy-Two Earthly Techniques?"

After he had fully digested the information, he fell silent.

Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones... none of these renowned techniques fell into his hands.

"If I could replicate the entire universe in my first life..."

The thought had barely formed in his mind when he swung his sleeve and cut it off, turning around and stepping into the time acceleration zone.

Instead of using immortal energy, he used the power of chaos as a guide to forcefully deduce the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Techniques.

One hundred and eight Taoist techniques, combined with the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiends, form a complete ladder.

It is also clearly divided into three realms: foundational magic, establishing oneself through immortal arts, and reaching the divine through divine arts.

For example, "resurrection"—a magical skill—can only save beings who haven't yet ascended to immortality; but at the immortal level, even a recently fallen immortal can be brought back to the mortal world...

His understanding of the laws had reached the peak of the ninth-level Xuanxian realm, and his cultivation was as smooth as a boat sailing with the current. All thirty-six Heavenly Gang Laws had leaped to the Immortal Art realm.

After taking a few days off, he went into seclusion, and the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Techniques were upgraded to the level of immortal techniques.

"Following the 'Seven Arrows of Nailhead' from the Heavenly Gang Technique, let's forge a set of killing array magic weapons—whether they can nail down the Lord of the Universe, who can say for sure?"

Those who truly understand weapon crafting can directly infuse Taoist techniques into the weapon's embryo, imbuing the magical artifact with its own magical power.

The Seven Arrows of Nailhead, which terrified all the heavens, was forged in this way.

"Whether it succeeds or not, let's do it first; if we don't do it, there's not even a sliver of a chance."

He cleared his mind of distractions, drank a pot of Enlightenment Tea, his mind became clear, and he focused on comprehending the Supreme Refining Technique.

Within the accelerated time zone, the seasons change silently, and decades pass in the blink of an eye.

"The Supreme Refining Technique is divided into three levels: the first level cultivates Qi, the second level perfects immortality, and the third level leads directly to divine status."

"I've thoroughly mastered the first two layers."

The mastery of laws at the peak of the ninth-tier Xuanxian realm is already the pinnacle of the immortal path.

Even though the Supreme Refining Technique is profound and unpredictable, the first two levels are as easy for him as reading lines on the palm of his hand.

"Though I lack the Samadhi Fire, I hold the Sun Fire in my hand."

The flames consumed the fuel, and the divine sense filtered out the dregs, all in one smooth motion.

"With the treasure basin in hand, refining magic weapons is a bad idea—first, refine an alchemy furnace."

Using a treasure basin to forge weapons is fast, stable, and error-free, but it ultimately lacks the effort of hammering and forging.

He wanted a pill-refining furnace, solely to absorb the myriad herbs of the starry world and truly hone his supreme pill-refining skills.

Of course, the treasure basin can also directly condense pills—but in that case, you can't cultivate real skills.

The treasure basin can mass-produce a huge amount of pills, but right now he can't even produce a single finished pill.

Why not try the Supreme Refining Technique? It will not only kill time, but you might also come up with something new.

Alchemy is far more demanding than weapon crafting: even a slight deviation in the proportions of medicinal ingredients can drastically alter the efficacy of the medicine.

The same applies to weapon crafting. Even the slightest oversight will only slightly reduce the quality of the magic weapon.

With the Treasure Basin in hand, he had a thorough understanding of the materials, patterns, and spiritual veins of various magical treasures, and could copy them without any difficulty.

He condensed his divine sense, engraved the array diagram, infused it with the power of chaos, and then completed a set of hand seals, so that the alchemy furnace was steadily suspended in mid-air.

"On the surface, it is comparable to a high-grade immortal artifact, but inside it is not a true high-grade immortal artifact."

Zhong Guohong does not possess immortal energy; he drives the power of chaos.

If the energy contained in his lower dantian is pure immortal energy, with his understanding of the laws that is no less than that of a peak ninth-level Xuanxian, he is expected to refine a true high-grade immortal artifact in the first furnace, or even reach the top grade.

Once the unlimited output mode is activated, the essence, energy, and spirit will never be depleted.

His divine sense was as vast as the sea, and he almost never made a mistake when inscribing arrays.

He pushed the cultivation levels of Lin Quan, Lin Guo, and Zhong Lin Guo to the twelfth level of the Universe Lord.

Lin Quan specializes in cultivating immortality, Lin Guo deeply studies the Devouring Stars system of cultivation techniques, and Zhong Lin Guo focuses on practical alchemy.

The combat power of clones is ultimately limited—he himself is a thirteenth-order universe master, and the ceiling for clones is stuck at the twelfth order.

In the time acceleration zone, he secluded himself for over 30,000 years, solely to deduce the subsequent chapters of the "Heart Sutra of Time".

This mental cultivation method was created by him in his previous life in the American crossover world.

The power of the mind, also known as the power of the soul, is similar in function to the power of the soul, but its essence is quite different.

It can disturb people's minds, and the powerful can even create illusions out of thin air, and even turn falsehoods into reality.

Now, Zhong Guohong's mental power is enough to support a complete virtual world.

Those whose mental strength is inferior to others will find it difficult to extricate themselves once they fall into it, and will eventually sink into ruin.

I picked up the "Heart Sutra of Time" again and decades have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Act according to your heart, turn the abstract into the concrete, and get exactly what you expect."

With a slight thought, a packet of cigarettes appeared out of thin air in front of him.

"This ability to manifest the power of the mind is quite similar to the ring of Green Lantern in the American comic book universe."

Green Lantern drives the ring with his mind; whatever he thinks of, he gets.
