Chapter 674 Ye Jie - Daoist Scripture Enhancement
With Hua Xiaomei's example as a precedent, everyone understood what to do, and one after another, low-level cultivation manuals with minor modifications appeared in front of Ye Jie.

With everyone's current knowledge, creating a rare and powerful martial art might be difficult, but simply modifying it to create a similar low-level technique is quite easy.

In just two days, Ye Jie learned about five hundred new martial arts techniques.

These techniques are all imitations of existing low-level techniques, with only minor differences. Their power is even less than the original techniques, so they cannot be expected to be useful in battle. The only benefit is that they can increase the number of Dao scriptures and unlock new powers.

A cold wind swept by, and Hua Xiaomei brought out another classic book.

Among everyone, Hua Xiaomei created the most techniques. She alone created two hundred techniques, from Soul-Breaking Ball, Soul-Breaking Dart, and Soul-Breaking Needle to Netherworld Finger, Netherworld Leg, and Netherworld Body. She modified almost all the low-level techniques that could be modified. Fortunately, the Book of Life and Death could still recognize these techniques.

Aside from her, the number of cultivation techniques created by others varied. Even Ye Jie himself simplified existing techniques and created more than ten low-level techniques. Even so, it was still not enough to meet the enormous number required by the Dao Scripture.

Add the Soul-Shattering Giant Arrow that Hua Xiaomei had been waiting for to be added to the file. With a thought from Ye Jie, the words on the Book of Life and Death were revealed.

【Technique Name: Taoist Scripture (7/48)】

[General Principles of the Mindset: 94/100]

【Five Elements Taoist Techniques: 105/200】

[Footwork Techniques: 108/200]

[Protective Magic: 171/200]

[Transformation Method: 21/100]

Combat Skills: 550/1000

After absorbing the cultivation techniques during this period, seven-forty-eighths of the Daoist scriptures have been unlocked, along with several extremely unique powers.

In addition, Ye Jie's gaze also fell on the Transformation Technique.

His intuition told him that the Taoist scriptures were not so simple. To unleash this unique power to its fullest potential, all kinds of cultivation methods were indispensable, and a balanced approach was necessary.

There are six types of cultivation methods in the Daoist scriptures, and there are forty-eight levels of power. In other words, no matter how many of a single cultivation method there are, it can only unlock eight levels of power in the Daoist scriptures.

To unleash the full power of the Taoist scriptures, every type of practice is indispensable.

"Five hundred combat techniques and fighting methods can only raise combat techniques and fighting methods to stage four, leaving half of the stage remaining. Not only that, the number of techniques required is increasing, from one hundred to two hundred, two hundred to three hundred, three hundred to five hundred, and now it has become five hundred to one thousand. Just how many techniques are needed to raise combat techniques and fighting methods to the highest stage?"

Even Ye Jie couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought about the enormous number of techniques needed to improve his combat skills and fighting abilities.

The cultivation techniques created by my companions are only the lowest-level, low-grade human-rank techniques. Techniques at this level are not recognized by the Dao Scripture at all. They must be modified to the level of the Great Dao using the power of the Book of Life and Death before they can be incorporated into the Dao Scripture.

This discovery left Ye Jie speechless. Even if an ordinary person learned a supreme method like the Dao Scripture and happened to possess countless low-level cultivation techniques, they probably wouldn't see any improvement. Only someone like him, with the Book of Life and Death and the ability to modify cultivation technique records, could accomplish such a feat. "Several days have passed, and my companions have only created one Transformation Technique. If this continues, I'm afraid all the other techniques will reach their peak, while the Transformation Technique will still be lingering at the very bottom..."

Of all the cultivation techniques, the Transformation Technique is one of the more difficult ones. The degree of use of spiritual power it requires far exceeds that of the lowest-level Five Elements Dao Technique. It is simply not a power that a low-grade human can contain.

Even the most common transformation technique is at least at the Earth level. Creating such a technique, even by simplifying existing techniques, is not an easy task. This is why, after several days, Ye Jie's transformation techniques have not increased much at all.

This discovery made Ye Jie ponder deeply. Just then, his companions were also hitting a bottleneck in modifying low-level cultivation techniques. After all, not everyone could, like Hua Xiaomei, deduce dozens of seemingly identical new versions based on a single technique. Ye Jie simply said to the others:

"I don't think it's appropriate to create a training method in this way; we need to focus on something else."

Li Feie nodded repeatedly: "Not to brag, but I'm quite a creative person. Simplifying low-level techniques is really not my thing. Who knew that such a simple low-level technique could actually be extended into dozens of variations?"

Yunxiu was also quite helpless. She had helped a lot in the process of everyone creating their own techniques. She couldn't help but glance at the last person: "No matter what, we have all developed dozens of techniques, but some people haven't developed even one. They are just being lazy!"

Following Yunxiu's gaze, everyone's eyes also fell on Nan Linghe.

The person Yunxiu was referring to as someone who had been slacking off during this period and hadn't created a single new cultivation technique was none other than Nan Linghe.

While everyone was racking their brains to develop a new technique, Nan Linghe seemed unchanged, staring into the distance every day.

It should be noted that even Yao Bai, who is the most unpredictable and impatient, has managed to create ten different cultivation techniques during this period. However, Nan Linghe has not created even one, which inevitably draws criticism.

"Perhaps Sister Crane isn't good at this kind of thing."

"It's best not to bother her with these kinds of things in the future."

Hearing the whispers around him, Ye Jie couldn't help but cough and ask Nan Linghe, "Are you alright? Don't you have any low-level cultivation techniques you want to create?"

Nan Linghe shook his head: "No, that's not true. I'm working very hard to create a cultivation technique!"

Ye Jie scratched his head and said, "But... it seems you haven't even created a single cultivation technique."

Nan Linghe was a little embarrassed and stuck out her tongue, saying, "That's because I have so many ideas to incorporate into the cultivation technique. Although I know I should create the simplest low-level technique, once I started creating it, it somehow became complicated..."

Ye Jie smiled helplessly. Perhaps creating a cultivation technique was still too difficult for Nan Linghe, so he decided not to trouble her. He then turned to the others and said:
"The number of transformation techniques is far below expectations. If this continues, there may be omissions in the end. Who among you can concentrate on creating transformation techniques?"

Upon learning of this, Shen Qingge and Yao Bai took the initiative to take on the task, focusing on creating transformation techniques. They believed that it wouldn't be long before the number of transformation techniques could catch up.

"We're almost there; the Ganges Goddess's location is just ahead."

Before long, the words of the Snow Mountain Goddess brought everyone back to reality. In addition to creating cultivation techniques, everyone had not forgotten their original purpose, which was to find the Ganges Goddess who held the sacred truth of cause and effect.
