Ascending to Immortality by Slaying Spirits

Chapter 34 - Golden Light Divine Spell
After glancing at the sky, Lin Le sat cross-legged and entered meditation. He felt that he could directly enter the fourth dhyana today.

Dark clouds gathered, thunder rumbled, and suddenly silver snakes danced wildly, followed by a deluge of lightning.

Lin Le suddenly woke up, his face pale for a few breaths.

Once his complexion returned to a rosy hue, Lin Le couldn't help but grin: "No wonder Tianmen practitioners also cultivate Huangting or Lingtai. Without the support of essence and qi, no one could endure a cultivation method that depletes their vital energy every time they practice."

Thunder and fire refine the soul; it really is thunder and fire refining the soul. One wrong move and there is a real risk of the soul being scattered.

This is still the lightning and fire from within oneself, which is somewhat controllable. But what about the lightning and fire from the natural world?

Lin Le couldn't help but look up at the sky; it truly was a case of being put in a do-or-die situation and then finding a way out.

Fortunately, after the fourth meditation, each practice session brings considerable benefits.

Lin Le touched his brow. After another thirty or forty times, no, it should be about ten times, he could open the Niwan point.

By visualizing his inner world through his supernatural powers, Lin Le used the Mind-Concentrating Dew he had used that day and immediately felt his soul become completely clear.

One day's work can accomplish what he did in several days.

Lin Le sensed that his Qi Sea was almost overflowing; it would be either tomorrow or the day after.

After tidying up the room casually, Lin Le didn't care about appearances and simply lay down on the broken wooden bed to sleep.

However, as the moon moved westward, Lin Le suddenly opened his eyes and shouted angrily, "Who!"

As soon as Lin Le opened his eyes, he saw a white figure rushing towards him.

Lin Le was startled, thinking that the giant white snake was going to eat him, but upon closer inspection, he realized it was a woman with a ferocious face, no, a female ghost!

Seeing the way the woman floated over, Lin Le knew he had encountered a ghost.

With his blood and qi circulating, Lin Le unleashed a palm strike.

Blood emanated from his body and struck the female ghost.

"Ah!" A cry of pain rang out. The female ghost hadn't expected Lin Le to have the ability to separate blood and qi from his body, which was completely different from the martial arts masters she had seen before.

Sensing something was wrong, she wanted to leave immediately.

But Lin Le couldn't let her go; he himself still missed the local merit.

With a leap, Lin Le was faster than the female ghost, blocking her path. Then, with blood energy flowing through his hands, he grabbed the female ghost by the neck.

"I'll ask you a question, so answer honestly, or I'll kill you right now and make sure you can't be reincarnated!" Lin Le said coldly.

However, the female ghost opposite seemed to be a mindless wild beast, struggling desperately without responding to Lin Le at all.

"Is he mentally impaired?" Lin Le frowned and began chanting the mantra for salvation and rebirth.

After reciting it once, the female ghost suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of mist, trying to dissipate.

However, when Lin Le inhaled through his mouth and nose, all the mist flowed into his body.

But this wasn't Lin Le's initiative; it was instinctive.

Lin Le introspected his inner vision and found that his merits had increased by two points, and a drop of gray liquid had appeared on the lotus leaf where the Dew of Concentration was located.

The Soul-Nourishing Dew is made by refining soul power.

After choosing to use the Soul-Strengthening Dew, Lin Le did not feel clear-headed, but rather a little dizzy, as if something had been stuffed into his head.

However, this feeling quickly dissipated, just like when a person has eaten their fill and has used up all the food.

"I wonder what it's for?" Lin Le shook his head, not thinking too much about it, but focusing on another thing: the Rebirth Mantra really works.

"If the Rebirth Mantra from my past life is effective, are the others also effective?" Lin Le thought carefully for a moment and silently recited a mantra.

"Heaven and Earth are the profound origin, the root of all Qi. Through countless eons of cultivation, I have attained divine power. Golden light swiftly appears, protecting the True Man. So be it!"

But no unusual phenomena occurred, and Lin Le did not feel any loss of yang energy or blood in his body.

"No use?" Lin Le frowned and read it again, this time reciting it normally. Still no use.

Is it because the time is wrong? Lin Le glanced at the sky.

He just recited the Golden Light Mantra, which is a mantra and also a method of cultivation. To enter the path, one should generally meditate and recite it silently at dawn (5-7 AM) for 21 consecutive days.

Let's try a different incantation. Lin Le recited: "Danzhu, mouth god, expel filth and dispel impurities. Tongue god, Zheng Lun, connect life and nourish spirit. Luoqian, teeth god, ward off evil and protect truth. Throat god, Hu Ben, Qi god, guide saliva. Heart god, Danyuan, enable me to reach truth. Thought god, refine elixir, Dao Qi will always remain. Hurry, hurry, as the law commands."

After reciting the mantra, Lin Le felt his mouth clear and his body refreshed, as if he were drinking a nectar.

it works!

This made Lin Le somewhat hopeful about the effects of the Golden Light Mantra.

After glancing at the sky, Lin Le sat cross-legged and entered a meditative state, waiting for the hour of Mao (5-7 AM).

As the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth in the early morning, Lin Guan gazed at the golden light and silently recited the Golden Light Mantra.

After reciting it forty-nine times, Lin Le felt a divine light appear within his body.

I opened my eyes and looked at my fingers; a point of golden light shone at my fingertips.

'That's it?'

Lin Le was surprised and withdrew the golden light back into his body.

Carefully sensing the changes within his body, he discovered that the golden light was immersed in his dantian, and the feeling of it being about to overflow gradually dissipated, replaced by a sense of solidity.

Refine vapor into liquid!

Lin Le suddenly understood, and with a thought, all the top-grade Yin energy accumulated on the lotus leaf fell into his body.

Since we've already started practicing Qi transformation into liquid, we shouldn't retain this Yin energy.

The Qi Gathering Technique is activated, and the surging Yang Qi engulfs the Yin Qi. Even the most potent Yin Qi, as stubborn as a rock, cannot withstand the relentless onslaught of Yang Qi.

With yin and yang in harmony and water and fire in balance, Lin Le felt an increased sense of solidity in his dantian.

It wasn't until Chen Shi (7-9 AM) that Lin Le finished digesting all the Yin energy.

Standing up, stretching, Lin Le picked up his gun and went out.

Looking around, Lin Le sat down at a breakfast stall: "Ten baskets of steamed buns, please."

After saying that, he slapped a small silver coin on the table.

The breakfast stall owner said somewhat anxiously, "Young hero, I only have two baskets of steamed buns left."

At this moment, Lin Le had the appearance of a muscular man standing at 1.8 meters tall, and with his menacing aura, anyone who saw him would feel that he was not someone to be trifled with.

It's normal for the breakfast stall owner to be uneasy; he was afraid that Lin Le would smash up his shop if he was dissatisfied.

"Two baskets will do." Lin Le waved his hand. "Give me whatever else you have. If you have any extra, go to other breakfast stalls and buy some for me."

"Okay." The breakfast stall owner took the small silver ingot and then served Lin Le a basket of steamed buns. "Young hero, please eat first. After you finish, I will bring you another basket."

"Mmm." Lin Le nodded, not minding the heat, and grabbed a bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

It would be an exaggeration to say that his body is immune to fire, but boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius probably wouldn't even scald his skin, let alone this steamed bun.

In no time, a large pile of bowls appeared next to Lin Le.

A man walked up to Lin Le, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Young brother, you have a good appetite. May I ask which family's esteemed disciple you are?"

"No affiliation or sect." Lin Le shoved a bowl of wontons into his mouth and gulped it down in a few bites. He glanced at the man and said, "Get to the point. Don't bother me while I'm eating."

"Young man, you seem to be a straightforward person," the man said. "Then I'll get straight to the point. The town is currently organizing a demon-slaying team. You look to be highly skilled. I wonder if you'd be interested in helping the weak and fighting evil?"
