Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 19: The Art of Draining Yuan
Jing Qian mobilized the power of the [Sumeru] destiny and jumped out from the space he named [virtual world].

After some recuperation, both his magic power and physical body have returned to their peak again, and have shown significant growth!

However, now he has lost his only secret weapon!

He was holding a handful of skewers in one hand, naked, standing on a broken coconut tree, looking as unlucky as if he couldn't survive.

But only he himself knows that the sea area under his feet has become his home ground!
Jing Qian dived into the sea, raised his hand and pointed, a silk thread shot out, captured a big blue carp, and let it pull him towards the bottom of the sea.

Soon, he came to a trench.

Jing Qian shot out the second silk thread and fished out the copper hammer that had sunk into the trench.

Although these hammers and sticks may seem insignificant, they are masterpieces forged by the short and stocky monks themselves. They are all forged from the [Hague Iron] of the [White Fang] grade, with solid materials and proper tempering.

It is a genuine, high-grade weapon and is worth a lot of money.

Jing Qian was penniless at the time, so there was no reason for him to throw away his treasures.

After retrieving the bronze hammer, he came to the crab's corpse again.

This giant crab, with its shell and meat, are all useful materials.

If it can be towed back to land, it can be sold for a good price!

Unfortunately, it is now lying dead on the seabed, and its weight of dozens of tons is not something that ordinary people can carry away.

Jing Qian drove the green fish around the crab corpse several times, and scanned it up and down with his spiritual sense.

Finally, a gathering place of [White Fang Life Essence] was found in the lower right abdomen of this crab.

Among this body of flesh and blood, only the special magical material formed by the gathering of [Life Essence] is the entry-level material of [White Fang] grade.

Naturally, it is also the most valuable part of the [Cancer].

Jing Qian aimed at that spot and once again entered the crab's body through its mouth.

He drilled his way through, piercing the flesh that blocked his way, and finally dug out a topaz the size of an ostrich egg.

This topaz is crystal clear and warm to the touch, several degrees higher than Jing Qian's body temperature.

Afterwards, he pulled out a piece of white and tender crab meat as thick as an adult's thigh from the crab's belly, completing the process of touching the corpse.

[Virtual Realm] still needs to leave space for refuge, and its loading capacity is limited to this level.

However, with this [White Fang] crab jade, he has obtained 80% of the value of the crab corpse.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Jing Qian floated to the surface again and found half a coconut tree as his place to stay.

He tied the black carp to a piece of wood and pointed it in a direction. The big fish then pulled the wood and rushed away.

The big raft was gone, leaving only a canoe, and Jing Qian suddenly lost interest in choosing the fish to pull the boat.

He has already given up. If there is no other way, he will just chop up the barrel and carve a surfboard out of it. It will definitely go at a high speed!

The unlucky fish, pulling the broken wood and carrying the exposed bird baby, sailed towards the west without stopping.

Ordinary sea fish in this world are quite strong and powerful.

The big black carp actually reached a speed of nearly 30 kilometers per hour!
The sea breeze blew on Jingqian's hard front spines, and for a moment, he actually felt a little comfortable!
The power of [Soul Weaving] manifests in his hair. With this blessing, Jing Qian can easily control and adjust his hairstyle.

The giant crab just now is the overlord of the surrounding sea area. Its sphere of influence is almost 500 miles in radius.

In this sea area, it is the only White Fang beast.

After Jing Qian killed it, this sea area became quite safe for a short period of time.

He took a canoe and traveled on the sea for three hours before reaching his destination.

In the sea water beneath his feet lies an important treasure he discovered from Cancer's memory. He came here specifically for this purpose.

However, the sun was already setting and night was about to fall, so Jing Qian was not in a hurry to go into the sea.

He drove the herring to swim back and forth, guarding his canoe and preventing it from being swept away by the ocean current.

He then used his magic power to return to the [virtual world].

Jing Qian took out a thick crab stick and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

He took out the "Morning and Dusk Determine the Fate of the Dawn" and carefully looked through the table of contents. After having a general understanding, he began to interpret it word by word.

This treasure book of cultivation is divided into two parts. The first part records the fundamental method of cultivation from nourishing the essence, all the way to setting the destiny and burning the body, until the great success of [Dragon Elephant].

The next part records various secret techniques of cultivation and the use of [fate] that are compatible with the fundamental method, which can enrich means and enhance combat power.

This classic has been revised and accumulated by the Jing family over many years. It can be said to be a detailed and easy-to-understand reference book for spiritual practice.

Jing Qian compared the memories in his mind and studied them carefully, slowly but steadily constructing his own understanding of cultivation.

This will definitely be a long-term accumulation process.

After some exploration, he finally found his next direction of practice.

In this world, if a cultivator successfully burns their body to determine their destiny and cultivates their [Fate], the first thing they must do is quickly master the [Art of Drawing Essence]. This [Art of Drawing Essence], as the name suggests, relies on the power of the [Fate] to draw vital energy from the realm and condense the [Fate Essence].

It is the core means to enhance one's own magic power after destiny is determined, and can greatly improve the efficiency of accumulating [Life Essence].

It can be said to be a compulsory course for every monk.

Jing Qian carefully studied the several [techniques of drawing energy] recorded in the "Morning and Dusk Determine the Fate of the Dawn", and his horizons were broadened for a moment!

For the first time, he felt the importance of inheritance!
From these secret techniques, one can intuitively feel the power and charm of knowledge!

He couldn't help but feel sincere admiration for the senior masters who discovered such a wonderful method!

In this wonderful world, infinite vital energy fills everything.

This is the foundation and source of all supernatural powers.

All methods of spiritual practice, in the final analysis, are about incorporating vital energy into one's body, strengthening oneself, and seeking the sublimation of the essence of life.

Corresponding to different types of [fate], there are two types of [techniques of drawing energy] recorded in "The Book of Determining Fate at Dawn and Dusk".

Among them, the "Art of Sealing Talismans" corresponding to the "Life of Living Beings" can be added to the "Weaving Souls" fate, which is just in line with his practice.

And the "Method of Praying and Paying Tribute" corresponding to the "Destiny of Gods and Ghosts" can also be used on "Weaving Souls", but this secret method requires the support of "Life Fire", which he does not have for the time being.

He undoubtedly lacked the [Art of Drawing Essence] for [Sumeru]!
However, he was not in a hurry. He had practiced for a short time and there was plenty of time to search slowly.

He could have practiced the Art of Sealing Talismans first to gain some experience.

After all, according to what is recorded in the "Morning and Dusk Determined to Break the Fate Sutra", this [Art of Drawing Essence] is not an easy task that can be accomplished overnight.

Jing Qian took a short nap for two hours in this [virtual world] to ensure he got the necessary sleep.

In the remaining time, he devoted himself to comprehending the "Art of Sealing Talismans" and felt that he had gained a lot!

It was not until the sun rose that he came out of his enlightenment.

At a certain moment, Jing Qian wanted to stay in this [virtual world] until he mastered the [art of drawing energy].

But Jingqian's years of martial arts experience have taught him that in many cases, haste makes waste!

Being too involved and persistent will undoubtedly overdraw one's energy and state, and is a manifestation of the growth of inner demons.

The right way to practice is to alternate between relaxation and tension and not get carried away.

Otherwise, if we lose in a row, we will lose a lot of points!
He put away the secret book, stretched his body, and then escaped from the [virtual world].

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he vaguely felt that the size of this [virtual world] seemed to have increased a little!
Back on the surface of the sea, the big bluefish was still obediently carrying out Jing Qian's orders.

Jing Qian released it casually.

After a day and a night of traveling thousands of miles, the fish was severely exhausted. It was a blessing from heaven that it was not killed by Jing Qian.

He shot out a line with his left hand, changed to a big yellow croaker, and continued to watch the canoe for him.

He shot out a line with his right hand, caught a big black fish, pulled its body, and swam to the depths of the seabed.

The sun is high in the sky, and under the sunlight, everything below the sea is visible.

But as Jing Qian descended two hundred meters, the light around him became dimmer and dimmer.

When he finally reached the seabed.

This place is already a thousand meters deep sea where you can't see your hand in front of you!

Jing Qian covered his body tightly with a layer of [White Fang Life Essence] to block the huge pressure from the seabed.

He felt the unique tranquility and pressure of the deep sea, but his heart was filled with excitement and curiosity of exploration.

Jing Qian identified the direction, pulled the line again, let the fish pull him, and swam towards the place in Cancer's memory.

After swimming for nearly another mile, he finally reached the final destination of his journey.

Suddenly, a huge treasure ship appeared before his eyes!
No, not one ship, but half a ship!
Only the front half of this treasure ship remained intact, while the back half was bitten off by some huge creature, and the broken part was full of neat tooth marks.

This half of the treasure ship is a hundred meters long and twenty meters wide. It has a strange shape and is completely round. It has no windows or doors, as if it were formed in one piece.

Moreover, this boat has no sails or oars, and I don’t know where its power comes from.

Jing Qian did not stop, but swam towards the gap in the treasure ship and went into the dark cabin.

When we got here, the surrounding environment changed again!
The interior of the cabin was torn into pieces, with huge crab claw marks everywhere.

This place is the long-term nest of the Cancer, and also its place of opportunity!
In its memory, the reason why this crab was able to break through the bloodline restriction and successfully advance to the ninth rank [White Fang] was all because it had the good fortune to encounter this broken ship.

It swallowed the unknown precious medicine in the cabin, and then awakened the [Crab Jade] destiny and completed the promotion.

When Jing Qian realized the existence of this treasure ship, he immediately rushed over and tried to explore the shipwreck.

Since there are magical items that can help Cancers advance, there must be information worth discovering!
