Tao and Heaven

Chapter 107: Immortal Method - Heavenly Magic

Gu Wen returned to the room and immediately sat cross-legged in meditation. This time he was a little more anxious than before.

He was determined to achieve the ninth level of perfect Taoism and become an immortal, but before, he only knew the benefits of becoming an immortal, but not the disadvantages of not being able to do so.

The world is like a chessboard, and all living beings are pieces. Only by becoming an immortal can one escape the chessboard.

If he cannot become an immortal, will he become the next Jade Sword Buddha?

The Taoist wants to become an immortal!
Looking inward at the Qi Sea, it has been a long time since the foundation of the Tao has been nourished by the Heavenly Marrow, but just relying on elixirs and asking others for advice, the progress has been advanced by one third. Now it only takes eighty years of Heavenly Marrow to complete.

This means that Gu Wen can theoretically catch up with most of the geniuses without relying on his fate. What he lacks is only time, and Tiansui can greatly shorten this time.

In the universe, there are sixty-five fire meteors and twenty tributaries of the golden river.

[Sixty-five years of Tiansui] [Twenty years of Dijiang]

He hadn't figured out where to use the Emperor's Juice yet. Theoretically, he could refine all treasures, but in reality, most treasures had owners. He could refine all kinds of artifacts and spiritual treasures, but Dao Soldiers couldn't be found just by looking for them.

The greatest use now is to refine Taoist weapons and devour spiritual treasures after possessing the primordial spirit.

He still remembered that when he first tamed the Blue Eyed Water Pearl, he could use the Emperor's juice to swallow the spiritual treasure to nourish his mind. The next stage is the Yuanshen, and the role of the Yuanshen lies in the second life and Taoism.

Intention, spiritual appearance, and Dharma appearance enhance the power of Taoism, while Yuanshen increases the speed and quantity of Taoism's execution.

Some methods that require the soul will also be strengthened, such as the sword-controlling technique of the Sword Control Sect and his own Jade Purity Sword Technique.

If it were in the past, Gu Wen would choose to improve his Tao foundation first, but now that he has the true solution to the Dao of the Sword, the improvement of his Tao foundation may not be as good as the true solution to the Dao of the Sword.

Perhaps this is only temporary. Once you reach the third sword level, the cost-effectiveness will not be as good as the fourth level of Taoist foundation.

Now, of course, I should practice swordsmanship first.

Gu Wen shifted his gaze from the Taoist Mountain, and three swords came into view. Only when the energy of the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon intertwined and converged could one see the true meaning of the sword art at a higher level.

It is like white mist, illusory and invisible, encompassing countless sword techniques.

[The true explanation of the way of the sword, the origin of the swordsmanship of heaven and earth, the required heavenly marrow is nothing]

The true meaning of the sword is not a single sword technique, but a combination of the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon, which cannot be improved through Tiansui.

'Perhaps it is because I am not yet at the level where I can directly access the true meaning of Kendo, and can only glimpse it through the three swords.'

His eyes were on the three swords, which were his strongest attacking methods at the moment. The number of swordsmanship was the lowest, which was the sixth level of his Jade Purity Sword Technique, but the other two Buddha and Demon Swords were the first level, so the swordsmanship was the first level.

[The second level of the Devil Sword requires fifty years of Heavenly Marrow. Minus twenty years of watching battles and receiving instruction, a total of thirty years are required to complete it.]

[The second level of Buddha Sword requires fifty years of Heavenly Marrow. Minus twenty-five years of observing sword fighting techniques and receiving instruction, a total of twenty-five years are required to complete it.]

[The Jade Sword Dharma, influenced by the true understanding of the sword, subtracts twenty years of Heavenly Marrow, and requires one hundred and ten years of Heavenly Marrow to form.]

Can the true knowledge of Kendo also reduce the amount of Celestial Marrow required?

Gu Wen couldn't help but feel happy, and his little abacus started clacking in his mind.

Practicing the three swords simultaneously can reduce the celestial marrow by 30% each. Adding the true understanding of the sword, the total discount is nearly 40%.

However, since the Jade Purity Sword Art had already reached the sixth level, the 10% discount had already been taken into account. Even the fifty years of heavenly marrow of the Buddha and Demon Swords were the same as when they were at the first level, which was obviously discounted.

He drove the Heavenly Marrow to smelt the two swords of Buddha and Demon, and in an instant, the second sword was completed.

[Spending thirty years of Tiansui, the second level of the magic sword, the sword energy is condensed]

[Spending twenty-five years of Tiansui, the second level of Buddha Sword, the sword force is initially formed]

A stream of insights surged into his mind about the effects and differences of the second level of the Buddha and Demon Swords. Although he could not improve on them at the moment, the mysteries contained in them would have an impact on his true understanding of the way of the sword.

【Second level of the true sword technique】

It was only a brief description, and it was obvious that Gu Wen's current knowledge was not enough to fully comprehend the mystery, but there was one thing that Dao Ye could definitely understand.

[Sword Qi is condensed, sword force is overwhelming, consumption is reduced by 50%]

The actual effect of the true meaning of Kendo is very simple, and the purpose of the sword technique is simple and unpretentious: to cut through everything.

Comparing the attack of Zhaolie Spear to that of the same unit of mana, the swordsmanship is ten times that of the former. This ten times is pure power multiplication, which is the power of a single sword energy.

An average adult can punch with a force of 100 kilograms, and the stomach may be able to withstand ten punches. But multiply this value ten times, and a force of 1,000 kilograms can pierce the stomach.

There is no health bar when cultivators fight, and there is no shield value in the body protection magic. This is why Gu Wen was able to surpass one level of Taoism foundation and kill an old monster of the demonic path in an instant.

Gu Wenzhaolie's spear was like a normal person's fist. If he defended properly after dozens of punches, he wouldn't get hurt at all. But the true meaning of the sword was that it was useless to defend, not to mention that he was using his Dharma image to block it.

This is the ultimate offensive technique, the true explanation of the sword art, one of the thirty-six methods to become immortal.

Now the second level has reduced consumption by half.

Gu Wen estimated that his current mana was enough to use the sword technique ten times in a row, which meant he could kill ten monsters.

Even if it could be resisted by various means, there would still be five swords left after killing one person with five swords. This was killing an enemy above his level, so there was still half of the state left. The previous True Lord beat him until he was exhausted.

Dao Ye is invincible!
【Ten Years of Tiansui】

[The Jade Sword Dharmakaya, influenced by the true sword dao, the Buddha and Demon Swords, subtracts thirty years of Heavenly Marrow, and requires eighty years of Heavenly Marrow to complete.]

"I still need seventy years of Heavenly Marrow. Lu Chan still has a furnace of elixirs with fifty years of Heavenly Marrow, and there are thirty years of Heavenly Marrow left in the Spirit Wine. I may be able to get a few dozen more when I go to Xiao Yunyi tomorrow."

At the same time, his cultivation of Dao foundation had not fallen behind at all, and he could break through at any time, but Gu Wen wanted to get more experience packs. According to his observation, the lower the level of asking others for advice, the more Heavenly Marrow one could get. Gu Wen felt that the road was smooth, and although he had not yet reached the point where he could spend Heavenly Marrow at will, he would not get stuck because of insufficient Heavenly Marrow due to his careful calculation.

The road is smooth, and the road will be completed! ——
The next day, there were still fourteen days before Tianquan Mountain opened.

Gu Wen went downstairs to have breakfast in the morning. The inn had a special chef whose cooking skills were comparable to those of the chef at Longqiao. The fishing industry in Luoshui was well developed, so he could have a fresh steamed fish for breakfast.

Lu Chan brought the last batch of pills, also containing fifty pills.

"That's settled now."

"Thank you, Master Dao."

Gu Wen bowed slightly, this time he got the upper hand. Lu Chan only took 20% of the labor fee, and because of Jun Yan, the actual 20% was compensated.

Even Lu Chan paid a part of it.

"I wonder where Senior Jun Yan is now?"

"Is Daoxiong very close to his elder brother?"

Lu Chan's face suddenly became nervous. There was already some sadness in her brows when she came, and now she looked even more nervous.

"She used to call Jun Yan "Senior Sister". "

Gu Wen noticed something was wrong and asked, "What happened to Senior Jun Yan?"

"No, my brother is the heir of the Demon Sect, how could he be in trouble?"

Lu Chan's voice became lower and lower, and then she gradually lowered her head, pinching the hem of her skirt with both hands.

Cried?

Gu Wen had a headache, not knowing how to comfort the other person, and he also vaguely felt that something was unusual.

What could have happened to Jun Yan? What made Lu Chan change her words? But what does this have to do with me?
He and Jun Yan had a shallow relationship, but considering that Jun Yan had taught him swordsmanship, Gu Wen was still willing to help if anything really happened.

But it seems that the matter is obviously not as simple as lending a hand. Even if he is willing to help, others may not be willing to let him help.

"Lu Chan, you come up first."

Yu Hua's voice was heard, and then Lu Chan turned around and ran up to the second floor without hesitation. When Gu Wen went up, he saw her hugging Yu Hua and crying bitterly, as if she wanted Yu Hua to save her senior sister.

When Gu Wen asked, Yu Hua simply replied that Jun Yan's practice method was special and he had multiple consciousnesses, but now the consciousness in Qianfeng Sect was dead.

As for the reason, Yu Hua herself didn't know. She didn't have much friendship with Jun Yan, but she knew that Jun Yan was extraordinary.

Perhaps Xiao Yunyi knew the reason, as Jun Yan had the closest relationship with Xiao Yunyi.

"These proud people are all sick."

Gu Wen could only sigh that it was like the saying "God will give great responsibilities to those who are capable of them", and there really was something magical in it.

Jade Sword Buddha is caught in the battle between Buddha and Demon, Jun Yan seems to have split personality, Xiao Yunyi is dragged down by the true solution of sword, everyone has their own difficulties. But this generation of genius is the strongest in history, and they have not been lost in the crowd.

How good am I?

Gu Wen subconsciously touched his cheek. The marks left by Zhao Feng's whip had long disappeared, but the burning pain would not subside until the entire dynasty was destroyed.
-
Three o'clock at night.

Gu Wen came to the bamboo forest with wine, and just as he was about to knock on the door, Jun Yan came out.

He opened the door and saw Gu Wen was obviously stunned for a moment, then he showed a slightly evil smile: "It seems that you have learned the true meaning of the sword, and it is time for him to be free."

A faint smell of blood entered his nose, and Gu Wen's eyes were suddenly filled with vigilance. Perhaps it was enough to sense his change in demeanor, Jun Yan slightly stepped aside, and Xiao Yunyi sat inside.

The source of the bloody smell was the blood at his feet. The half-person-high bathtub was dark red, with the lumps of flesh faintly visible.

"Come in, I won't disturb you from teaching the Dharma, and I don't want to hear the true explanation of the sword art."

Jun Yan left in a hurry and disappeared in a few flashes in the night.

The first time Gu Wen walked into Xiao Yunyi's house, he noticed the blood-stained sword in the other's hand, and also noticed the faint smell of blood on Jun Yan's body. He could also guess where the blood in the bathtub came from.

But these have nothing to do with me.

He placed the wine on the table, bowed slightly and said, "I am here to learn the way of the sword."

"I will teach you the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism, and I promise to do it without reservation."

Xiao Yunyi wiped the last drop of blood from the blade, revealing his sword skills. The three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism were each at the sixth level, and each sword was extremely close to the Dharmakāya.

But there is no aura of true swordsmanship.

He changed the subject and said, "But I have a request. If one day Jun Yan goes completely crazy and you have the ability to kill him, please help me kill him."

Gu Wen's eyes narrowed slightly and he asked, "Why?"

"You should know that the true meaning of the sword is one of the thirty-six ways to become an immortal, and Jun Yan also has a way to become an immortal."

Xiao Yunyi pointed at the balls of flesh in the blood, each of which was round like a head.

"Heavenly magic, with thousands of demons in his body, merging into one to become an immortal."
