Starting from crossing the Fengshen

Yin Qi reads very fast, basically reading ten lines at a glance, and he can remember everything he sees.

A page can be read in two or three seconds.

If there were other people around, they would probably think he was looking for something in a book.

In more than half an hour, he finished reading the thick "Tianyuan General History" and finally had some understanding of the development of this world. Then he read several history books about the Eastern Continent.

After reading the history books, Yin Qi read some classic books on Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, which were all new theories and benefited him greatly.

Just like that the whole morning passed.

In the afternoon, Yin Qi found a book introducing the four major cultivation systems. The content was very detailed. In addition to the four major systems, there was also a powerful profession in the West, that is, the Dragon Knight.

To put it simply, a dragon knight is a Western warrior teaming up with his dragon mount, especially a second-level flying dragon that can fly. This gives the dragon knight super combat power, and it is difficult to find an opponent at the same level.

This is like cavalry versus infantry. Under the same circumstances, the cavalry will definitely crush the infantry.

Afterwards, Yin Qi found some secret books on Eastern martial arts, spiritual cultivation, Western magic, and martial arts and read through them at an equally fast pace.

The Eastern martial arts in the world of the God's Tomb are very special. They focus on cultivating true qi, and the true qi is not stored in the dantian, but flows through the meridians.

It is not like the way of immortality, where the transformation of true qi is first liquefaction and then solidification, thus achieving a qualitative transformation.

It is about constantly tempering the true Qi and allowing it to transform.

The first level is true Qi, the fifth and ninth levels are still true Qi.

Although they are the same kind of true qi, their power is incomparable. A wisp of true qi from a sixth-level warrior may be hundreds of times more powerful than a first-level true qi because it is of a higher level.

Just like a wisp of spiritual energy cannot be compared with a wisp of chaotic energy.

The improvement of a warrior's cultivation comes from the transformation of his true Qi. At the same time, the Shenmu martial arts also focuses on tempering the body with true Qi. Basically, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the body will be.

As for practicing Taoism, it is similar to practicing immortality.

Western magic focuses on the spirit and soul, and then uses the power of the spirit and soul, that is, mental power to control the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so as to perform various magic. In essence, it is very similar to Taoism.

As for Western martial artists, their martial arts are generally similar to those of the East.

They mainly practice fighting qi, but the fighting qi is spread all over the body, and they use fighting qi to temper their bodies during practice, so Western warriors are generally tall, strong and muscular men.

The four major cultivation systems each have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the only one that is valuable to Yin Qi is Eastern martial arts.

Finally, Yin Qicai walked towards the 'ancient books' area.

In the ancient book area, various books were placed in a mess. Yin Qi took a quick glance and found that most of them were books of classics, history, and miscellaneous books. A small number of them were secret books, including both martial arts secret books and spiritual cultivation secret books.

Although it is only a small part, there are still hundreds of books overall, which is still considerable.

Of course, in addition to secret books, there are also miscellaneous books on medicine, poison, divination, feng shui, and even evil books. Just by looking at the name, such as "The Secret Book of Blood Sacrifice", you can tell that it is practicing evil arts.

Yin Qi did not dislike these books.

Anyway, there are only about a hundred books, and they are not as thick as history books, so I can finish reading them all today.

Yin Qi pulled out a secret book called "Fiery Sun Palm" and began to read it.

"Finger of Sealing Immortals", "Pure Yang Mysterious Art", "Qingmu True Scripture", "Piaomiao Sword Technique", "Nine Heavens Thunder Technique", "Starry Sky Art"... one book after another of cultivation secrets quickly immersed Yin Qi in them.

Although most of the secret books are relatively ordinary, there are still many top-level magic skills. For example, "Starry Sky Skill" can actually draw the power of the stars in the sky for cultivation. After it is fully developed, it can even control the stars in the sky, and it can be cultivated all the way to the eighth level (God King).

There is also the "Finger of Sealing Immortals", which is a finger technique that can seal immortals and gods.

There is also the "Nine Heavens Thunder Method", which is also a powerful Taoist technique that can destroy immortals and slay gods. They are all unparalleled magical skills from ten thousand years ago, and no one knows how they ended up here.

Suddenly, Yin Qi was startled. He turned around and saw an old man appear in his eyes.

The old man looked extremely old, with cloudy and lifeless eyes, all his teeth had long fallen out, his wrinkled skin was like a crumpled ball of paper, and there were only a few dozen sparse hairs on his bald head, making him look like a zombie.

The old monster, the ancestor of the Chu State!
"What a sharp sense of perception! You are about to break through to the fifth level, right?"

A hidden green light flashed in Old Monster Chu's eyes. He spoke in an old voice with admiration, "You are almost at the fifth level at such a young age. Looking at the entire Tianyuan Continent, I am afraid there is no one else like you. A few days ago, I heard the little emperor and others talk about you, but it's a pity that they all underestimated you and thought you were only in the late third level."

Yin Qi bowed and smiled, "Greetings, Senior. The world has underestimated the State of Chu. No one thought that the State of Chu would have a top-notch expert like you in charge. It is truly a blessing for the State of Chu."

Old Monster Chu shook his head and said, "I am old. I am over 170 years old. I don't have many years left to live. The future of the Chu State still lies in you young people. By the way, do you know these ancient characters?"

Yin Qi nodded and said, "I understand a little bit."

Old Monster Chu said: "My friend is indeed knowledgeable. I have an unwelcome request, and I hope you will agree to it."

Yin Qi understood and pretended to be puzzled and said, "Please tell me, senior."

Old Monster Chu said quietly, "I have an ancient book in my hand, and I hope you can help me translate it. I will have someone send the book to Qishi Mansion later."

What he wanted to translate was the sect's evil life-extending skill, so of course he would not give Yin Qi a handwritten copy.

Instead, the order is disrupted and the non-repeated words are picked out.

Yin Qi nodded and said, "Okay."

Old Monster Chu didn't expect Yin Qi to agree so readily, and asked in confusion: "Aren't you curious about what I asked you to translate?"

Of course Yin Qi would not say it clearly, but just smiled and said: "If you are willing to tell me, you will naturally tell me. If you are unwilling to tell me, it is useless for me to ask, so why bother?"

Old Monster Chu laughed, and the whole person looked like a zombie jumping out of a coffin.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be terrified.

After laughing, Old Monster Chu sighed and said, "To be honest, what I asked you to translate is actually an evil skill. I am too old and don't have many years left to live, but I don't want to die, so I can only resort to this last resort and find a way to prolong my life."

Yin Qi nodded, his expression calm.

Old Monster Chu asked curiously, "Don't you feel disgusted, or are you wary?"

Yin Qi shook his head and said, "Even ants are greedy for life, let alone humans. Moreover, although my cultivation is not as good as yours, it may not be that easy for you to deal with me. Why should I be alert?
However, if the purpose is to prolong life, there is actually no need for you to practice evil skills.

I have some knowledge of alchemy, and I can make elixirs that can prolong life, but of course it’s not free.”

"The immortal pill that prolongs life, are you serious?"

The green light in Old Monster Chu's eyes became brighter, and even his voice was no longer old, but sonorous and powerful.

If there was an elixir that could prolong life, he would not want to practice witchcraft, because witchcraft often had serious side effects and was not tolerated by the world. Once discovered, the Chu State would become the target of public criticism. (End of this chapter)
