Hell Emperor.

Chapter 673 Hua Xiaomei - Self-Created Kung Fu
As planned, the group set off, intending to find the Ganges Goddess, who possessed the sacred truth of cause and effect, under the guidance of the Snow Mountain Goddess.

On the way, Su Miao seemed to remember something and handed a book to Ye Jie.

"what is this?"

Ye Jie was somewhat curious, so he opened the book and found a cultivation technique recorded inside: "Frosty Jade Body Technique? Is this a body-refining technique?"

Su Miao snorted: "That's right, this is an incomplete cultivation technique that I practiced in my early years. Once you master it, you will always have cold energy protecting your body. Aren't you looking for different cultivation manuals? I don't know if this incomplete technique can help you. Based on my understanding over the years, I have written down the essence of the Cold Jade Body Technique. See if you can use it."

Ye Jie took out the Book of Life and Death, tried it out, and finally shook his head: "No... This is not a complete cultivation technique, so it cannot be recognized by the Book of Life and Death."

The techniques that Ye Jie can record in the Book of Life and Death are limited to those with written records. Having a written record is not enough; the content must also be complete. If any part is missing, it is not considered a complete technique.

Su Miao said helplessly, "What can I do? My understanding of the Cold Jade Body Technique is all written in the classics, but it is not recognized as a complete technique. I have no other way."

Their conversation attracted the attention of others. Shen Qingge took the Cold Jade Body Technique and carefully began to read through its contents:

"Incantations, operating methods, practice methods, derived moves... In my opinion, the problem lies in the operating methods."

Su Miao immediately pressed, "What does that mean?"

Shen Qingge explained slowly, "The Cold Jade Body Technique is a method of body refinement, and it also requires the circulation of spiritual energy as an aid. Among the scriptures that Grandmaster Miaorou brought out, the only thing missing was the most crucial detailed method of spiritual energy circulation, which is why it was not recognized as a complete technique."

Su Miao also had a headache: "When I first got this cultivation technique, it was already incomplete. I only practiced a part of it, thinking it would be helpful. Who knows where to find the rest of the operation method? Since it failed, let's just forget about it and pretend I didn't say anything."

Seeing that everyone had put down the book, Hua Xiaomei walked over, picked it up and examined it. She said with some concern, "The contents of this book have something in common with the Netherworld Hand technique that I learned before. Maybe...maybe I can complete the content of the technique."

"what?"

Hua Xiaomei's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. They saw her pick up a pen and continuously add and delete to the classic text. Although the process was somewhat difficult, she still managed to complete the supplementary content.

After finishing all this, Hua Xiaomei wiped the sweat from her brow: "This is all I can do. It's barely enough to get it working. Don't expect the technique to be that powerful."

Ye Jie took the book with great interest, and soon the contents displayed in the Book of Life and Death made him overjoyed.

"It actually works! The cultivation technique has been recognized by the Book of Life and Death and can be added to the records!"

Knowing that their efforts had not been in vain, everyone couldn't help but show joy. Hua Xiaomei's lips curled up, basking in her own success, while Ye Jie was thinking of something else entirely:

"If this works... then will our self-created cultivation technique also be recognized by the Book of Life and Death?" "Self-created cultivation technique?" Li Fei'e was taken aback. "Those who can create their own cultivation techniques are all grandmasters with profound attainments. If it were us..."

Li Feie paused halfway through her sentence, as if she had thought of a certain possibility.

Ye Jie spoke slowly: "With our current strength, even the grandmasters of the mortal realm cannot harm a hair on our heads. Even among immortals, those who can master the Great Dao techniques are few and far between. If we are not qualified to create our own techniques, then no one can."

Shen Qingge agreed, saying, "In the end, cultivation techniques are a summary of the use of spiritual power. Even a mortal with exceptional talent can create his own cultivation techniques, let alone us who have glimpsed the Great Dao. With our current knowledge and cultivation, creating cultivation techniques is indeed not a difficult task."

Upon learning of this, Li Feie's curiosity was piqued. Although she had learned many martial arts techniques, she had never created her own. Now that she finally had the opportunity, she was determined to give it a try.

However, Li Feie had a new question regarding the choice of cultivation method: "With so many types of cultivation methods, what kind of cultivation method should I create?"

Ye Jie said, "These techniques are only for stimulating the power of the Dao Scripture. The simpler the effect and the lower the grade, the better. The power of the techniques is not important. The main goal is to win by quantity."

Everyone nodded in agreement. The more complete the function and the more powerful the effect of a technique, the higher its grade and the more troublesome it is to create.

Creating a supreme-grade Heavenly Rank technique, or even a more powerful one, is a headache even for top immortals. It's not something that can be done in a short time. Even the most brilliant genius would have to spend a long time to leave behind a supreme technique that could change the world.

However, if the grade of the cultivation technique is lowered to the lower level of the human rank, it becomes much easier to create.

The low-grade human-level cultivation techniques are prepared for beginners who have just embarked on the path of cultivation. They do not contain profound principles, but rather resemble a simple application of spiritual power with limited effects. Once they are paired with higher-level cultivation techniques, their disadvantages become obvious.

Fortunately, what Ye Jie valued was not the power of the techniques themselves, but rather the need to use a large number of techniques to fill the gaps in the Daoist scriptures, thereby further enhancing the power of the Daoist scriptures.

Upon learning that Ye Jie needed a low-level cultivation technique that most people would never even consider, everyone became interested and began to incorporate their own ideas into the creation of the technique, leading to a lively discussion.

Soon, Hua Xiaomei completed her creation and presented the cultivation manual to Ye Jie: "Take a look, what do you think?"

Ye Jie flipped through the ancient texts, which recorded a low-grade human-level ghost cultivation technique called Soul-Breaking Ball. This technique involved condensing spiritual energy into a ball, bypassing the physical body, and directly striking the enemy's soul.

Ye Jie looked at it more and more and found something was wrong. He couldn't help but say, "Isn't this just the Soul-Breaking Arrow that even ghost messengers know? It's just that the arrow has been changed into a ball. Is this considered a self-created technique? And its power is even weaker than the Soul-Breaking Arrow..."

Ye Jie rubbed his forehead. There was a reason why the Soul-Breaking Arrow was shaped like an arrow. The Soul-Breaking Ball couldn't pierce the enemy's soul; at most, it could only stun the enemy, and its power was really limited.

However... the Book of Life and Death actually recognized the Soul-Breaking Ball as a cultivation technique that could be added independently to the cultivation technique archive, which surprised Ye Jie greatly. Could such a simple change really be considered a completely new and independent cultivation technique?
Hua Xiaomei chuckled: "Just tell me if it's useful or not?"
