The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 71 Return to Bozhou
Li Yan entered the top floor of the seventh floor of the library, which only covered an area of three meters in radius. There were two sandalwood bookshelves placed on both sides of the wall.

As soon as he entered the top floor, he smelled the rich scent of ink coming from the bookshelves.

In the middle of the top floor there is a wooden square table with a black armchair next to it.

It is said that the top-level spells here were all written by the Seven Souls True Man himself with his spiritual thoughts. They contain subtle ideas that can help people quickly understand and get started.

Therefore, it can only be read on the top floor and cannot be borrowed.

However, with Li Yan's current memory, it doesn't take much time to memorize a spell, so it's no big deal.

But when he saw the top-level spells on the bookshelf, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"There are so many top-level spells."

Li Yan was shocked to find that there were dozens of top-level spells on the bookshelves on both sides, a number that far exceeded his expectations.

"As expected of the Zhongzhou Demon Subduing Division."

Li Yan was filled with admiration.

Then he began to look through these spells one by one.

Pray for rain, borrow wind, spread fog, golden flame, hold your breath, freeze your body...

Li Yan was not in a hurry. He sat on the black armchair in the middle and began to flip through the books one by one.

Whether to practice or not is another matter, but I wrote them all down.

Even if you don't plan to practice, it's a good thing to gain some knowledge.

After being enlightened by Ling Jun, he was no longer as eager for quick success as before.

"Rainbow Escape Technique!"

When Li Yan came across this spell, his eyes lit up.

This spell is exactly the top-notch flying method that he has been dreaming of.

"You need to adopt the Nine Heavens Cloud to refine it before you can practice. If you perfect it, you may be able to comprehend the magical power: Walking Cloud!"

Li Yan was not frightened by the introduction of the Rainbow Escape Technique.

These top-level spells are more or less related to supernatural powers.

For example, praying for rain and borrowing wind correspond to the magical power of summoning wind and rain that the Dragon King once displayed.

However, the probability of comprehending the corresponding magical powers through these two spells is probably more than ten times more difficult than achieving a True Lord.

Unless one can find a few spells that match it and practice them to perfection, the difficulty will gradually decrease.

But even if the difficulty is reduced, it is still unimaginable for ordinary people.

So Li Yan did not comprehend the idea of supernatural powers from it.

He just wanted to learn the method of flying, and the Rainbow Escape Technique just happened to meet his needs.

If his cultivation is perfected, his flying speed will be at least several times faster than his current speed.

Among other spells, he prefers the Breath Suppression Spell.

As his cultivation level increased, his aura became stronger and harder to hide.

Moreover, due to the functions of Fu Shi Po and Tun Zei Po, his blood and energy are extremely turbulent, and those who don't know him would think he is a warrior.

Several fellow practitioners he knew also thought that he was practicing some kind of body-refining method.

Therefore, although he did not intend to perfect the Breath-Concealing Technique to the point where the Seven Souls True Person's spiritual thoughts could not be detected, he even did not intend to comprehend the supernatural power to stand without a shadow.

But even just getting started can help him a lot.

After memorizing all these top-level spells in his mind, Li Yan went to the Merit Hall of the Demon-Subduing Bureau.

He exchanged some of his unused magical instruments and spiritual materials for the Nine Heavens Cloud Essence needed to practice the Rainbow Escape Technique, and some other spiritual materials needed for cultivation.

However, the Nine Heavens Cloud Essence is extremely precious, and there is not much of it in the Merit Hall.

Li Yan only exchanged for three taels of Nine Heavens Cloud Essence, but these three taels of Nine Heavens Cloud Essence were enough for him to practice the Rainbow Escape Technique to a minor level. However, if he wanted to reach a major level of perfection, he would need more high-quality Nine Heavens Cloud Essence.

As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. After Li Yan learned the escape technique, he planned to practice the Huahong escape technique before returning to Bozhou.

So in the following time, he practiced the Rainbow Escape Technique in the Zhongzhou Demon Subduing Bureau.

With his level of Taoism, he quickly refined one coin of Nine Heavens Cloud Essence and reached the threshold for practicing the Rainbow Escape Technique.

After that, he began to continuously activate the Rainbow Transformation Mantra, trying to condense rainbow light.

But this spell is quite difficult to practice.

Even with his talent, it took him three full days to condense a rainbow light and learn the Rainbow Escape Technique.

Fortunately, his hard work was not in vain, and the Rainbow Escape Technique was indeed a top-level spell.

Just by getting started, his speed increased by 50%.

After he mastered the Huahong escape technique and was preparing to return to Bozhou.

Mu Ziqian suddenly came to him and invited him to watch the sword fight among the hundreds of sects in Zhongzhou.

But when Li Yan asked, he found out that all the people participating in the sword fight among the hundred sects in Zhongzhou were from the sects in Zhongzhou.

Moreover, the battle is between young disciples who are at the third and fourth soul realm and are under fifty years old.

He lost interest as soon as he heard this, so he directly rejected Mu Ziqian and returned to Bozhou.

……

Back in his attic, Li Yan completely relaxed, sat cross-legged on a cushion, and began to meditate on his body.

"My cultivation has reached 225 years. My non-poisonous spirit has been half-lit, my jade body has been slightly developed, and my life span has reached 200 years."

Lighting up the non-poisonous soul is a process of eliminating impurities from the body, which is completely opposite to swallowing the thief soul and requires fasting.

During this process, some impurities and toxins in the human body will be continuously discharged from the body.

Even practitioners at this level can be immune to all poisons, and evil spirits find it difficult to invade their bodies.

Human life span will continue to increase in this process.

Therefore, once you reach the level of the five spirits through practice, you can begin to prolong your life.

However, ordinary practitioners in the Five Spirits Realm can only extend their lifespan by twenty years.

Their basic lifespan before entering the Five Spirits is only one hundred and thirty years. Even if you add the twenty years of life extension after entering the Five Spirits, they can only live to one hundred and fifty years old.

As Li Yan had already cultivated the four spirits to perfection, his qi, blood and essence far exceeded those of ordinary practitioners. Even though he used the limit-breaking magical power to cut off part of his lifespan, his basic lifespan before entering the five spirits was as long as 160 years.

Although his non-poisonous soul has not yet been completely illuminated, his life span has already increased by an additional forty years.

If one can perfect the cultivation of the non-poisonous soul, the lifespan can potentially reach more than two hundred and forty years.

"Although this life span cannot be called immortality, it is already considered longevity compared to the mortals here who only live for 70 to 80 years at most."

Li Yan is very satisfied with the current progress. He no longer worries about when he can break through to the True Lord realm. He just wants to practice step by step and improve his Taoism year by year.

“Everything I ask for, I am trapped by.”

He was deeply touched by what Lingjun told him.

"The light of my heart has already illuminated the dark space within my body within a radius of thirty miles."

Li Yan is no longer a novice in cultivation who knows nothing.

After he awakened his soul, the red light emitted in the dark space was called the light of the heart.

Although the light of the heart is of little use at present, when he lights up the seventh soul, the smelly lung soul, it will be transformed into spiritual consciousness to explore the heavens and the earth.

The range of his current mental light has already exceeded the limits of the Seven Souls realm.

When he enters the Seven Souls Realm in the future, the range of his spiritual perception will probably be appalling.
