Chapter 45: Chapter 44: The Skill Most Suitable for One’s Own Cultivation
Translator: 549690339
At sunrise, on a giant stone atop a mountain peak, Pei Xuanjing sat cross-legged, cultivating his True Qi towards the rising sun.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, expelling all impurities from his breath.
Over a month had passed since he obtained the peculiar object. During this time, some had harbored peculiar intentions wanting to seize the object, however, all were forcefully suppressed and killed by Pei Xuanjing.
There were also some who thought that Pei Xuanjing would not abandon his cultivation path for the peculiar object, offering other items in exchange, but they were all rejected by him.
Although the closing time of the blessed forbidden place was still over twenty days away, Pei Xuanjing had already obtained the greatest harvest of the forbidden blessed land, thus he had put aside the thought of vying for the Spiritual Medicines.
During the past month, he had just calmly sat at the top of this mountain peak, daily absorbing Zi Qi, circulating True Qi, and refining the Taoyun contained in the peculiar object.
Without a doubt, Pei Xuanjing’s intuition was not wrong, the peculiar orb that appeared from blessed forbidden land had greatly benefited him.
Even if he didn’t need to rely on this peculiar orb to break through to the Upper Three Realms, the
Taoyun that he had refined from it in the past month alone had already made his journey worthwhile.
As his strength continuously increased, the Taoyun value that the lower-rank Martial Arts Cultivation Method Manuals provided him became like a drop in the bucket. It could even be said that only the middle-rank martial arts rank Cultivation Method Manuals could assist him.
Despite this, accumulating Taoyun at such a rate was still extremely slow. If he wanted to quickly accumulate Taoyun, he would need to obtain some high-rank martial arts or even peerless martial arts rank Cultivation Method Manuals.
Unfortunately, high-rank martial arts and peerless martial arts were not so readily available.
Not to mention the rarity of peerless martial arts, just the high-rank martial arts Cultivation Method Manuals could support a slightly weaker first-class power.
The Cultivation Method Manuals of this level were treasured by every force and not revealed lightly, even disciples under the sect could only have direct disciples practice them.
Originally, Pei Xuanjing had only been able to acquire more Taoyun by searching for more lower-rank and middle-rank martial arts rank Cultivation Method Manuals and accumulating purely through quantity.
However, this peculiar orb really was unexpected, just over a month of refining it allowed him to obtain over twenty thousand Taoyun value.
If it wasn’t for his current inconvenient location, he would have initiated the life simulation early on.
After all, with the enhancement of his strength, each life simulation not only started to take longer, but the consumption of his mental strength also increased.
In this forbidden blessed land, although there were few people who posed a threat to him, they still existed, making him dare not initiate it casually.
Of course, even if he couldn’t initiate the life simulation immediately, Pei Xuanjing did not waste any time.
Apart from refining the peculiar orb to accumulate Taoyun during this period, most of his time was spent studying the cross-cultivated martial studies, the “Dragon Elephant Skill”.
“Dragon Elephant Skill” was the Diamond Gate’s martial studies that dominated the sect, was rumored to be listed among peerless martial studies, but as it had never been cultivated to the Great Completion Realm, it was considered semi -peerless skill.
This skill was created by the Diamond Sect’s founder, Vajra Monk, who took the supreme protective skill of the Esoteric Sect as a reference, and combined it with his own Martial Arts realizations.
The original “Dragon Elephant Skill” was a supreme protective skill of the Esoteric Sect with its ferocious and formidable martial arts skill. After cultivating each layer of the Dragon Elephant Art, it could increase the strength of a dragon and an elephant. After practicing ten layers, it had the immense strength of ten dragons and ten elephants, with a force nearly weighing a hundred thousand catties.
This martial art skill was divided into thirteen layers. The first layer was quite simple, even the most ignorant person could get the hang of it within a year or two after receiving the instruction.
The second layer was twice as complex as the first, requiring three to four years.
The third layer was twice as complex as the second, needing seven to eight years.
Thus, the complexity increased exponentially, making further progress increasingly difficult.
Even after recalculating, cultivating this martial art skill to completion would probably take a millennium.
Even a Grandmaster of the Upper Three Realms couldn’t live for that long.
Even since this skill was created, only the exceptionally gifted King of Law was able to cultivate it up to the tenth layer a thousand years ago.
Unfortunately, ever since his death, no one in the entire Esoteric Sect had cultivated this martial art skill above the seventh layer.
Later, the Diamond Sect’s founder, Vajra Monk, had heard about this skill and by himself singlehandedly killed and entered the Esoteric Sect; strongly seized this skill to read it, and felt that this skill, although somewhat stubborn and delusional, was indeed novel.
After returning to the Diamond Gate, he closed himself up for ten years, taking this as a foundation and creating a completely new “Dragon Elephant Skill”. Although its power was slightly reduced, the cultivation time was halved. In comparison to the original martial skill, the defense abilities of the physical body had doubled.
However, it was a pity that Vajra Monk was later killed by someone and it was only at the time of his death he could cultivate this martial skill to the eighth layer, without reaching the realm of great completion.
In the Jianghu, there were rumours that the current Diamond Sect’s Master was in closed-door cultivation, aiming to break through the eighth layer.
“This martial skill seems as if it was custom-made for me.” Pei Xuanjing, after acquiring this martial art skill, revealed a delighted look on his face.
“For others, they need to cultivate this martial skill hard year after year. But I have a life simulator in hand, and the time required for this martial arts skill is much less, just needing a few more or a few less life simulations. In other words, as long as I have enough Taoyun value, I can continue to cultivate successfully.”
Pei Xuanjing suddenly felt that even his own creation , the currently most suitable martial arts skill for him to cultivate “Four Spirits Skill”, in comparison to the “Dragon Elephant Skill”, was slightly less suited to him.
After all, even if “Four Spirits Skill” is something he created, throughout the cultivation process, he would still encounter some bottlenecks.
However, this “Dragon Elephant Skill” was different. It had no such bottlenecks, it only required persistence, daily continuous cultivation, using enough time, he could cultivate this martial skill to completion.
In other words, as long as he could keep repeating the simulations, persist in cultivating the “Dragon Elephant Skill” , he could let himself naturally cultivate to the First-Grade Realm. Even when breaking through from the Fourth-Grade Realm to the Third-Grade Realm, the enlightenment required could be ignored because the core of this martial skill was one phrase: overwhelming force with sheer strength.
“Unfortunately, this martial skill currently only contains the first six layers, the last three layers are still in Diamond Gate.” Pei Xuanjing felt a little regretful.
“It seems I have to visit the Esoteric Sect another time, to experience how the real “Dragon Elephant Skill” is, and how much stronger it is compared to this version.” he thought.
Because, if the simplified version created by Vajra Monk is already so impressive, how much more impressive will the original “Dragon Elephant Skill” be?
This made him very excited!
