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

Chapter 380 Hesitation
As for this Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Secret Technique

Shen Changchuan hesitated.

After all, although this secret technique has many side effects, he has put a lot of effort into it.

All the effort was in vain.
Ultimately, I'm a little reluctant to part with it.

But upon closer reflection,
Shen Changchuan also made up his mind.

No matter how,

It's impossible for him to cultivate a secret technique with such serious consequences.

He wasn't after momentary pleasure.

So he decided to keep this secret technique hidden away.

however,
At this very moment,
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.
suddenly,
He thought of something.

wrong!

That's very wrong!
Is this secret technique truly impossible to cultivate?
In a daze,

A thought suddenly popped into Shen Changchuan's mind!
Although this secret technique has significant side effects, its underlying principle is excellent!
Compressing one's internal mana is simply purifying one's own internal mana, isn't it?!

"This method seems familiar."

Shen Changchuan recalled a secret technique called the Nine Elements Spirit Gathering Technique that he had obtained when he was in the Qi Refining Realm.

That secret technique is a method for training one's spiritual sense.

Back when Shen Changchuan was at the ninth level of Qi Induction, he was able to leave his body ahead of time and possess a divine sense that was no less than that of a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. This was largely due to the Nine Elements Divine Essence Technique's ability to temper the soul.

Although since he advanced to the Nascent Soul realm,

The Nine Elements Spirit Gathering Technique wouldn't be of much use to him.

He had not used this secret technique to temper his divine sense for many years.

However, the "one certificate for all" function on the progress bar panel is still available.

With just a slight thought, Shen Changchuan was able to recite the entire method from memory.

Looking at the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Secret Technique before him,
Recalling the information about the Nine Elements Divine Essence Technique in his mind.

At that moment, a thought immediately popped into Shen Changchuan's mind:
"This secret technique has a good concept."

"Could I extract its essence and discard its dross, using the Nine Elements Divine Gathering Technique as a template to modify this Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Technique?"

"The biggest drawback of cultivating the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Technique is that it involves constantly compressing one's magical power and then using that immense pressure to burst forth and break through the barrier. During this burst, the meridians in the dantian are torn apart by the violent magical power!"

"What if I reduce the number of times I compress mana, reducing the pressure on mana?"

"Or perhaps, I could simply compress a portion of my mana to refine it, using the Nine Elements Divine Essence Technique to purify my own mana, instead of relying on that pressure to break through the barrier. Would that be feasible?"

In a flash,

Many thoughts flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.

His eyes also began to sparkle.

Modify a secret technique,
It's not impossible!

these years,

With Shen Changchuan's tireless cultivation day and night, he now has over a thousand perfect-level spells on his progress bar panel.

Such a terrifying number,

This allowed him to accumulate knowledge and skills to an unimaginable level!
In particular, after mastering each spell, he was able to fully understand that spell and continuously accumulate experience and knowledge about spell cultivation.

These cognitive resources,

This allowed his seed-based supernatural power to evolve and change several years ago.

The seed of supernatural power can transform.
Secret techniques are also acceptable!
"According to the information given by Senior Brother Wu, this secret technique is nothing more than a secret method created by a rogue cultivator at the peak of the third level of the Nascent Soul stage who had not made a breakthrough for many years and took an unorthodox approach."

"The master of the secret technique eventually stopped at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul realm."

"There's no reason why a rogue cultivator at the peak of the third stage of the Nascent Soul realm could create such a secret technique, while I, who possess thousands of perfect-level spells, can't even make improvements!"

"I don't know what a higher level would be like, whether it's forging a new path or continuing to follow the path of predecessors, but at least right now, with the conditions, it's possible, and perhaps not impossible, to try to create and improve upon it!"

An idea formed in my mind.

Shen Changchuan quickly made a decision:

Based on his own knowledge, he modified this secret technique.

This is used to refine magical power.

Enhance the quality of your internal magical power!
Do it when you think of it.

So, Shen Changchuan then entered a state of near seclusion, focusing all his efforts on mastering the Qi Absorption and Return to Origin Secret Technique.

It is worth mentioning that,
Perhaps it was because Shen Changchuan's accumulation of magical skills was too profound that he only had a few days to comprehend the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Secret Technique.
Shen Changchuan broke down almost every detail and key point in it.

The principles, operation, sequence, and other details were all thoroughly understood.

"The experience gained from perfecting a spell may have more than just lowering the barrier to entry for spells of the same element."

Shen Changchuan had a vague understanding of what was going on.

However, he didn't have time to delve into this in detail.

The initial success

This gave Shen Changchuan great confidence.

Therefore, he devoted almost all his energy to improving the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Technique.

She only occasionally went out when she was investigating the whereabouts of the Gold-Eating Spirit Butterfly or her master, You Longzi.

And during this time,
Wu Tianhao seemed quite busy, and a few days later he went off on another mission.

Thus, within the desolate city...

Shen Changchuan was almost undisturbed.

Time flies by so quickly.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

this day,
Inside the temporary cave dwelling,

Shen Changchuan sat cross-legged on a white jade futon, circulating his magical power throughout his body. His body emitted a soft white light, causing the surrounding air to fluctuate in a way that made people tremble with fear.

Soon,
He opened his eyes.

In the void,

A tangible, sharp edge flashed by, sending chills down one's spine!

"Success!"

Right now,

Feeling the magical power within his body reduced by one-fifth, but of superior quality,

Shen Changchuan's face was beaming with joy.

"I never thought this path would actually lead to success!"

"Compression, purification—the approach was indeed correct!"

"Although the total amount of mana in my body has decreased by one-fifth, I can feel that using my current mana to activate spells is three times more powerful!"

"His strength has reached a new level compared to before!"

"Furthermore, I can feel that with the compression and purification of mana, the bottleneck seems to have loosened a little."

"If I continue this purification and cultivation, I might be able to break through in a few months!"

Shen Changchuan clenched his fist.
Feeling the powerful force within,
A feeling of joy welled up inside me.

Yes,

After a month of hard work
He has already successfully modified the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Technique!

Now that it has been repaired, it has brought him great benefits!
Excellent results
This not only further enhanced Shen Changchuan's strength, but also gave him hope of breaking through to a higher realm!
It's truly a case of finding a new path after a seemingly hopeless situation!
and,

More importantly,
This means that Shen Changchuan is on the right track!
With the accumulation of thousands of perfect spells,
He has already been able to create his own unique methods and secret techniques!

This made Shen Changchuan's thoughts start to wander.

Perhaps I can create more methods?

But soon,
He immediately rejected the idea.

"Creating a new magic technique is not easy. This time, we used the Nine Elements Divine Gathering Technique as a template and modified the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Technique to succeed."

"My accumulated knowledge is not yet sufficient to open up the realm of magic."

"Spending months or even a year creating spells is not necessary at the moment."

Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan shook his head slightly, suppressing those thoughts in his mind for the time being.

He's still just a nobody in the cultivation world, so he shouldn't be too arrogant.

First, proceed step by step.
Let's consider things like creating new laws once we reach a higher level.

The Art of Absorbing Qi and Returning to the Origin
It was just an accident.

Just like the evolution of the Supernatural Seed.
