My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 296 Consolidation and Improvement
"Not bad, it seems you have a pretty good understanding."

"I've said everything I needed to say. The rest of the journey is up to you."

"Once you advance to the third level of the Nascent Soul stage, I will give you another lecture."

"Of course, there's no need to rush to improve your cultivation level. If you have time, you can practice a few more self-defense techniques."

"The cultivation path to the Out-of-Body Realm is still very long, and at this level, protective measures are especially important."

Regarding Shen Changchuan's teachings,

You Longzi felt extremely relieved.

He truly deserves to be called a genius in cultivating magic; he also has a very thorough understanding of all aspects of cultivation.

The foundation is very solid.

Some questions are understood almost immediately.
There's absolutely no need for You Longzi to rack his brains.

This undoubtedly made him even more satisfied with Shen Changchuan.

With this kid's talent, intelligence, and Daoist mindset,
If they don't perish along the way,
He will surely have a place among the top leaders of the future!
"It's all thanks to my master's excellent teaching."

"Alright, you seem to have said that three times already, so there's no need to be so modest."

"Let's try our best. Although the Dragon Sky Sect was founded by me, its foundation is still far inferior to that of our sect."

"Pass the joint entrance competition of the Immortal Sects as soon as possible and enter the Immortal Sects for cultivation; that will benefit your future path."

"Only by entering the Immortal Sect to cultivate can you be qualified to come into contact with a wider world."

You Longzi patted Shen Changchuan on the shoulder.

He gave a few simple instructions.

Then he left.

When it comes to teaching his disciples, You Longzi has his own unique method.

Simply point out the direction to the disciple and point out their own mistakes.
As for future achievements

They relied entirely on themselves.

"Indeed, having a renowned teacher, or rather, a powerful expert, personally instructing you makes all the difference."

"If I were to rely solely on my own efforts to refine my skills, it would probably take at least three months of hard work to stabilize my Nascent Soul realm!"

"But my master pointed out the problem and the answer directly, which saved me from taking countless detours in stabilizing my realm!"

More than ten days have passed,
He felt the restlessness within his body dissipate, replaced by an incredibly solid foundation.

Shen Changchuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, feeling especially delighted.

In just ten days, his cultivation level had been completely stabilized.

Moreover, there are no more doubts about the road ahead.

At least until one has cultivated to the third level of the Nascent Soul stage,

There are basically no problems.

Without this guidance, if he had to figure it out on his own, Shen Changchuan felt that it would have taken him at least a few more years of detours if he wanted to cultivate independently to the third level of the Nascent Soul stage.

at this time,

He also recalled You Longzi's last words.
"Let's improve our strength as much as possible and perform well in the Immortal Sect's entrance competition."

"That's absolutely true. Whether or not one has a renowned teacher makes almost the exact same difference."

"Although Master is one of the Seven Disciples of Yuqing Immortal Sect, he is still a junior in the end. There are countless old monsters in the Immortal Sect."

"To make greater progress, the best approach is to step onto a larger platform and seek guidance from more powerful individuals!" A thought flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.
His eyes flickered slightly.

So it's decided.

The next goal,

The goal is to improve one's strength as much as possible, and then perform exceptionally well in the Immortal Sect's entrance competition several years from now, in order to gain preferential treatment from the Immortal Sect!

In a short period of time,
Shen Changchuan already had a general plan in mind.

After leaving Master You Longzi's cultivation place
Shen Changchuan then plunged headlong into the Sutra Repository.

Prepare to practice more spells.
Enhance our own means of fighting the enemy.

With You Longzi's special approval, all first- and second-tier spells within the Scripture Pavilion were made available to him, and no sect contribution points were charged.
This undoubtedly filled Shen Changchuan with great joy.

After a brief self-assessment,

Shen Changchuan decided to start by learning the first-tier spells within the Scripture Pavilion.

"The progress bar panel is my biggest cheat code for rising to prominence!"

"The perfection characteristic that appears after a spell is perfected is of great significance to me!"

"Although first-tier spells are not powerful enough, their large number allows me to accumulate enough experience to perfect their characteristics!"

"As long as I accumulate enough experience in perfecting the characteristics, I may become an unparalleled prodigy in cultivating magic in the future. No method will have any threshold in front of me. I can learn it as soon as I see it and master it as soon as I learn it!"

"In the future, it may even be possible to master an extremely powerful and difficult spell to perfection in a short period of time, thereby making my strength far surpass that of others!"

Looking at the progress bar panel that only he could see, Shen Changchuan was filled with fighting spirit and couldn't help but sigh.

After so many years of exploration, Shen Changchuan has roughly figured out some of the characteristics of this progress bar panel.

First of all, the spells on this panel, once learned, are permanent and will not decrease in progress due to a long period of inactivity.

It was precisely because of this characteristic that Shen Changchuan was able to raise the progress bar of his magic to 100% when he was weak.

Secondly,

And most importantly,

That is the special experience gained after mastering those spells to perfection!
The experience gained is almost entirely illogical, directly reducing the difficulty of practicing similar spells, and this experience can be continuously accumulated.

The more experience you accumulate in perfecting your abilities, the better.
Therefore, the difficulty of cultivating spells within the same system is lower!
And this experience will not be consumed!
Until now,

Shen Changchuan has mastered a first-tier sword technique to the point that he can achieve over 40% proficiency after just a few glances and a little practice!

"After advancing to the Out-of-Body Realm, my spiritual sense greatly increased, and my control over my magical power deepened further."

"In this way, the speed of cultivating first-tier spells will also be greatly increased."

"Even an ordinary cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage can master a first-tier spell in just two or three days."

"Now that I have accumulated a large amount of experience in perfecting spells, this speed will only be faster!"

Shen Changchuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
He then probed the jade slip with his divine sense to examine the cultivation method within.

Three hours later,
On an empty lot,

Shen Changchuan casually pointed, and a long, earthen-yellow sword transformed into a beam of laser light and shot out.

In the blink of an eye, it cleaved a huge rock not far away in two!

And at this moment,
Looking at the progress bar on the progress panel, which showed 100% for the spell called Sharp Earth Sword,

A smile involuntarily appeared on Shen Changchuan's lips at this moment.

A surge of immense joy welled up within me.
