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

Chapter 898 Weighing the Pros and Consequences, Everything is Ready (Three Chapters Combined)

The Record of Devouring Gods is a method that works on the soul.

Although Shen Changchuan had only skimmed through the entire text and had not yet formally begun cultivation,

But regarding its function,

One can learn something from the content of the exercise.

The various methods within this method

Its application of spiritual power is extremely profound, and it has a strong reference value for Shen Changchuan.

Leaving aside the most important and bizarre methods such as possession and rebirth, demonic seeds, and the ability to divide into countless forms, these are all secret techniques that one should only consider after successfully cultivating the entire Yuanmo Devouring God Record.

But besides these,
The Record of the Demon Devourer also records other techniques and methods for the proper use of divine sense.

For example,
How can one subtly plant thoughts in another's mind using the power of the soul, and uncover the deepest secrets within their mind?

The methods for integrating divine soul power to search the enemy's soul, thoroughly searching their memories, and figuring out the desired outcome.
These techniques do not involve the original techniques of the Yuanmo Devouring God Record.

Although practicing the Yuanmo Devouring God Record makes it easier to use these techniques.
But even without the practice of cultivation...
As long as one's spiritual power reaches a certain level,

Or rather, if you're stronger than the person whose soul has been searched, you can do it all by using techniques!

these things,

This undoubtedly broadened Shen Changchuan's horizons!

At the same time, it is undoubtedly of great benefit to him!
After reading the contents of this book, "The Record of the Demon Devourer,"
Shen Changchuan already had many ideas in his mind.

If we encounter an enemy in the future, we'll beat them half to death.
By using these techniques or methods, you should be able to obtain more loot!

Using this method, it is said that every time Shen Changchuan defeats an enemy, he will be able to obtain the cultivation techniques they have learned from them.

Furthermore, since I have a progress bar panel, as long as I can enter the information, I can advance further through the principle of "heaven rewards diligence" and obtain proof forever!
Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan's gaze suddenly turned deep and unfathomable.

"wrong!"

"The applications of these techniques are not limited to this!"

"If I were to cultivate this Yuan Demon Devouring God Record, I could use those soul-searching techniques to go even further, extracting and copying the memories of the opponent's cultivated spells, supernatural powers, and trump cards."

"With these memories as a reference, wouldn't I be able to quickly learn the opponent's spells and other techniques, and rapidly advance to a level of mastery similar to that of the enemy?"

"This will undoubtedly greatly shorten the time I need to learn new spells!"

"With the features of the progress bar panel, I can accumulate a large number of perfect spells in a short period of time, further enhancing my cultivation foundation!"

In Shen Changchuan's heart,
Soon, a sense of excitement arose within them.

Shen Changchuan's thoughts were not recorded in the Record of the Devouring God of the Primordial Demon.

It was a new idea that arose from his browsing through the entire Yuanmo Devouring God Record, his brief understanding of its many techniques and methods, and his combination with his unique cheat progress bar panel!

Others don't do it this way.

It's because the benefits are minimal and it doesn't have much significance.

But for someone like me who has a progress bar panel,

This is definitely a huge help!
It allows one to quickly accumulate more perfect spells and further enhance one's own foundation!

It would be extremely beneficial to him!
but,
After careful consideration
Shen Changchuan ultimately suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

"I've already had more than enough opportunities!"

"I advanced to the Divine Travel Realm by establishing my foundation through the Heavenly Dao, and with the full support of my grandmaster and grandpa, I have no need to worry about improving my progress in comprehending the true meaning to perfection."

"Furthermore, by possessing the inheritance of the Ancestor of Reincarnation, one can travel through the heavens while sitting in the City of Broken Souls, experiencing various worlds and reaping the rewards of each world as resources."

"Before advancing to the Profound Core Realm, my path was almost entirely smooth!"

"In this situation, what I need is to proceed steadily and surely, not to create unnecessary complications!"

"Moreover, my main body is stationed in Broken Soul City, which means that I will basically not go out before advancing to the Profound Core Realm, and I will rarely encounter enemies. Under such circumstances, where would I find the opportunity to 'plunder' the enemy's signature techniques?"

"This thing seems to have many advantages."

"But in reality, at this stage, I really don't need to spend extra time and energy cultivating another method, especially since this soul cultivation technique is a demonic art of unknown origin."

After a brief assessment of the gains and losses, Shen Changchuan calmed down.

The initial joy gradually faded.

The excitement in his eyes also disappeared.
Reason returned.

The more you think about it, the more...

Shen Changchuan realized that, for the time being, it seemed that there was little need for him to cultivate the Yuanmo Devouring God Record.

Among these many reasons that flashed through my mind,
The most important factor, and the one that played a decisive role in Shen Changchuan's decision, was—

That is, the Yuanmo Devouring God Record is a demonic cultivation method!
Not bad,
This is a demonic cultivation technique!

With just a brief glance, and even before actually cultivating it, Shen Changchuan could already sense the strange, ruthless, and cold-blooded negative emotions contained in the Yuanmo Devouring God Record.

Any technique that can influence a cultivator's temperament and trigger negative emotions is undoubtedly a demonic cultivation method!
"Pity."

Looking at the four jade slips floating in mid-air, Shen Changchuan showed a hint of regret.

If this Record of Devouring Gods of the Primordial Demon did not originate from the legacy of the Seven Absolute Old Ghost, but rather from the inheritance of Ten Thousand Ren Peak,
Do not,
Furthermore, if this soul cultivation technique is a normal fragment of an ancient classic, practicing it will not have any negative effects on the individual.

Shen Changchuan would absolutely not mind learning another skill!
Instead of weighing all the interests involved as we do now, we should ultimately give it up!
"Demonic methods are unpredictable and treacherous. This Yuanmo Devouring God Record may seem to have no major problems, but who can be truly certain that there are no hidden tricks within it?"

"If some key techniques are concealed within the cultivation method, rashly practicing it could lead to serious consequences!"

"Moreover, the fact that I discovered the hidden compartment containing this jade slip might actually be a trap, designed to let me obtain this inheritance and cultivate it. Then, that old ghost might return through some hidden passage in this soul cultivation technique!"

This guess seems quite outrageous.

But upon closer reflection,
With the strange memories and rebirth methods found in the Yuanmo Devouring God Record, as well as his past feat of escaping from the hands of his master, Qian Yuan Zhenren, who was at the Xuan Dan realm, it is not impossible!
Shen Changchuan felt that,
It's always better to be wary of things you don't understand.

Moreover,

There's something fishy about the origin of this thing!

According to the fourth jade slip, this describes how the Seven Deadly Demons obtained this divine soul cultivation technique.

It appears to be a reward received after passing a trial.

And that trial was none other than the one left behind by the Minghuan Master from long ago!
Yes,

That was the first Xuan Dan Realm True Person born in the cultivation world of the Southern Yue lands thousands of years ago.

Shen Changchuan suspected that the other party might be a time traveler, and now a completely vanished being—Master Minghuan!
Shen Changchuan had no idea where the True Man Minghuan had obtained this cultivation technique for the soul.

It is unclear why they would set up a trial level as a reward for this martial arts technique.

Furthermore, it is unknown when the Seven Deadly Demons obtained this divine soul cultivation technique.

The remnants of the Minghuan Immortal were exposed decades ago, triggering a series of changes in the Nanyue region, which subsequently sought his trial grounds.

But this clearly doesn't align with the timing of the Seven Deadly Demons' rise to power.

Two hundred years ago, the Seven Deadly Demons were already a notorious demon in the cultivation world of the Southern Yue region!
At that time, the Seven Deadly Ghosts were already feared by people because of their unpredictable and cunning methods.

This also means,

The Seven Deadly Demons obtained this divine soul cultivation technique hundreds of years ago!
But rather,
Nobody knows!
So much so that decades ago, the discovery of the cave dwelling site where Master Minghuan once lived was considered by outsiders to be the first time that Master Minghuan had shown any trace in the world since he disappeared thousands of years ago!
It is clear,
Many years ago, the Seven Absolutes Old Ghost had interacted with the True Man Minghuan and received his favor.

Shen Changchuan had no idea of ​​the specifics.

Even after that battle over Dawan City, it's unclear whether the Seven Deadly Demons were truly and completely annihilated, or whether they were reborn in the minds of their disciples.

But no matter what,
These things made Shen Changchuan wary.

He was particularly startled when he heard the name Minghuan Zhenren.

Shen Changchuan had not forgotten,

Not long ago, Master was ambushed and failed to break through, which was related to the trial ground left behind by True Master Minghuan!
It concerns one's own enlightenment.
One must be extremely cautious on the path of cultivation!

Thinking of this matter,

Shen Changchuan's expression was extremely solemn.

Until a good while later,
I have just finished processing all the thoughts in my mind.

"However, although this soul cultivation technique may have many problems, it doesn't stop it from being a good thing."

"At worst, we can just not cultivate the specific methods, but only learn the techniques of soul application such as soul searching and memory seizure."

A strange light flashed in Shen Changchuan's pupils.

These techniques for using divine soul power do not necessarily require the Yuanmo Devouring God Record to drive them; those with naturally strong divine soul power can also use such techniques.

The latter is simply not as easy to do as the former.

But Shen Changchuan found this acceptable.

and,

Although without the driving force of the Yuanmo Devouring God Record, techniques such as memory grabbing and soul searching are more difficult to deal with people whose soul power is equally strong or whose cultivation level is higher than one's own.

But if you beat the enemy half to death, disable their ability to resist, or even beat them to the point of near death and unconsciousness, and then use methods such as soul search, the effect is still the same.
"Furthermore, if my clone were to travel to other worlds, these techniques for utilizing pure divine soul power, if combined with the native extraordinary power of those minor worlds, might allow me to forge another path!"

A glint flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes.

Although one can transmigrate to a minor world through reincarnation, the power of the divided spirit will be cleansed by that world, restoring it to its new, immature state.

But that higher essence than that of ordinary people cannot be erased!

If one can combine this with the extraordinary power native to that world and cultivate this higher-level soul power, it is not impossible to use the techniques of these divine soul powers!
and,

Perhaps they can even create a system for utilizing divine soul power that is compatible with this world!
And this,
It can not only provide him with a certain degree of self-protection after he travels through time.

It can also provide a new path for the divided spirit to cultivate the local extraordinary power in this world, obtain greater assistance, and thus make it easier to achieve the breakthrough and ascension in the future!
In the midst of thought,

Shen Changchuan has already made a general decision on how to deal with the Yuan Demon Devouring God Record. "Moreover, it would be good to show this thing to our grandmaster and the others. With their Xuan Dan realm level power, they would be able to detect any hidden tricks in time."

"When I advance to the Profound Core Realm in the future, I can conduct further research on this, extracting its essence and discarding its dross, transforming it into a foundation for my own further advancement!"

Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan then put away all four jade slips.

No matter how,

This Yuanmo Devouring God Record is quite good.

Even the ancient Wanren Peak does not possess cultivation techniques at the fourth or higher level of the Divine Soul.

If its negative effects can be overcome and the cultivation can be successfully completed,
Those methods that enhance one's spiritual awareness, as well as various incredible and bizarre techniques, would undoubtedly be of great benefit to oneself!
Shen Changchuan naturally couldn't bear to destroy or discard it.

"Speaking of which, the time flow rate of this world and the lesser world is basically one hundred to one, so there should be enough time to be distracted."

"So, once the divided spirit has established itself in the other world, while researching the Tai Sui Zhen Yue Gong, could it be possible to dedicate some time and energy to this as well?"

"Even if I only absorb a portion of its essence, it will definitely have a great effect on me!"

On the way to put the jade slip away

Shen Changchuan seemed to be deep in thought, and a vague idea began to form in his mind.

This idea may only be feasible once the distraction travels through time.
But according to Shen Changchuan's deduction, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Time passed,
Half a year passed quickly.

In half a year,
The cultivation world in the Southern Yue region did not experience any significant disturbance.
Currently, the attention of the surrounding cultivation world is basically focused on Xuan Daoji, the Daoist disciple of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect.

It is said that not long ago,

In several smaller domains where the Southern Domain intersects with other major domains, terrifying auras erupted one after another, stirring up clouds and mist for three thousand miles.

That was the scene of powerful beings at the Profound Core Realm fighting!
This matter undoubtedly sparked much discussion in the cultivation world.

Some people speculate that,

It was the rival sect, the Heavenly Demon Sect, that probed the Jade Purity Immortal Sect ahead of time.

It's also possible.

The major regions of the Southeast Continent did not want the Jade Purity Immortal Sect to have another Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment cultivator, so they tested the waters to see if there was a chance to kill him.

However, the places where these violent upheavals and the turmoil in the cultivation world occurred were all far, far away from the land of Nan Yue!

So much so that it didn't cause any significant disturbance in the southern Yue region.
This place, far from the center of the cultivation world in the southeastern continent, still maintains a sense of tranquility.

The forces of good and evil are locked in a standoff.

However, due to the heavy losses suffered by the top-level forces on both sides, they remained inactive.

Not even a major dispute was stirred up.

Compared to the Jade Purity Immortal Sect's mountain gate, which is now located in the heart of the Southern Domain's cultivation world, where a storm is brewing, the silence is almost unbelievable!

And in this tranquility

Thanks to the resources provided by our grandmaster and his followers,
Shen Changchuan's cultivation level has also been raised to the late stage of the second level of the Divine Travel Realm.

The true meaning of understanding
It also jumped to 41.3%!
The progress in this understanding of the true meaning is almost unbelievable!
This is true at least for cultivators at the second level of the Divine Travel Realm!
To know,
Back when Shen Changchuan was in the inner sect of the Immortal Sect, many Divine Ascension Realm cultivators came to watch his duel with Xuan Tianxing.

The reason for this is that even they failed to grasp the power of the true meaning, so they came to see the methods of Xuan Tianxing, who had grasped the power of the true meaning of the starry sky, to see if they could be inspired and enlightened.

For many cultivators in the Divine Travel Realm,

Basically, only when they reach the late stage of the Divine Travel Realm, with their powerful divine soul strength, can they be qualified to touch the power of the True Meaning, which is at the Xuan Dan level.

But most of those insights only progress to within ten percent!
This shows that

When Shen Changchuan's cultivation was only at the late stage of the second level of the Divine Travel Realm...
The fact that one's true intent has already reached 41.3% is terrifying!
This level of comprehension of the true meaning, combined with Shen Changchuan's foundation in the Heavenly Dao and his possession of some aura of law,

Shen Changchuan himself doesn't even know the extent of his current strength!

But one thing is certain.
Even if the Seven Deadly Ghosts were reborn,

Shen Changchuan's true form might not be unable to put up a fight against him!

but,

Rapidly improving the progress of understanding the true meaning.

It didn't all bring joy; a hint of worry also rose in Shen Changchuan's heart.

"During this time, my master and the others have been desperately searching for rare and precious materials that can improve my progress in comprehending the true meaning. These rare treasures that I used to spend decades searching for and that I probably couldn't obtain even if I risked my life are now piled up in front of me."

"With the addition of the progress bar panel, my progress in truly comprehending the Dao is now incredibly rapid."

"But this is too fast!"

Shen Changchuan couldn't help but feel troubled.

If outsiders were to find out about this, other cultivators in the Divine Travel Realm would probably curse Versailles for being pretentious!
just,

For Shen Changchuan, this was not an act, but the truth!

"With the help of the progress bar panel, I have almost no bottlenecks in comprehending the true meaning, and I can also perfectly utilize the functions of those rare treasures of heaven and earth."

"As a result, I am only at the late stage of the second level of the Divine Travel Realm now, but my True Meaning has already reached 41.3%. With such a rapid improvement in True Meaning comprehension, I am afraid that when my True Meaning is only one step away from perfection, my cultivation level will fall far behind!"

"If this continues, I will be able to advance to the Profound Core Realm by relying on my true understanding even before my cultivation reaches the peak of the ninth level of the Divine Travel Realm!"

"This is not what I want!"

If it were someone else,
To be able to see the dawn of forming the Profound Core Realm so easily,

They would probably be overjoyed!

At this point, no one cares whether his cultivation level has reached its limit.

But Shen Changchuan wouldn't be so short-sighted!

Or,

Thanks to his golden touch and the many opportunities he has encountered over the years,

His future, Shen Changchuan, is not limited to the Profound Core Realm.

He has even greater potential!
Also because of this,

Not to mention that before advancing to the Profound Core Realm, one must create an unparalleled foundation that is one in ten thousand.

But at least,
He also wants to raise his cultivation level to the peak of the Divine Travel Realm.

After cultivating the Divine Travel Realm to its peak, one can then complete the final transformation and advancement.

In this way, after advancing to the Profound Core Realm, one will not form a flawed "Dao Fruit".

The speed at which one's understanding of true meaning improves.

There was a significant gap between the speed at which his cultivation level improved and the speed at which it increased.
They may not be able to reach their peak at the same time, and the former may even improve much faster than the latter.

This is the biggest problem Shen Changchuan is facing right now!

"trouble."

"If this problem cannot be solved, things will only get more complicated!"

"Fortunately, the time has come, and it's time to travel between worlds!"

"Hopefully, our previous plan will succeed!"

Shen Changchuan's gaze gradually became firm and sharp.

He glanced at the progress bar panel in front of him out of the corner of his eye. In the memory section of the progress bar panel, there were quite a few more technical progress updates.

Hunting: 100% (You are an experienced hunter whose hunting skills have reached the pinnacle of human capabilities. Your chances of surviving alone in the wilderness are increased.)
Fishing: 100% (You are an experienced fisherman whose fishing skills have reached the pinnacle of human capabilities. You possess superb swimming skills and are able to catch more fish in the water.)
Forging: 100%
Carpentry: 100%
Painting: 100%
Chess skill: 100%
Yes,

Not long ago, his second clone returned!
After half a year of hard work, he wandered through various mortal kingdoms in the natural world of cultivation, learning all kinds of survival skills, artistic skills, and so on from scratch.

With his divine soul at the Divine Ascension Realm level, he quickly learned these things and mastered them, turning them into skills on the panel that had reached 100% progress!
These things exist.
So even if you are reborn into the lowest-class family after time travel, there is still some possibility of rising up.

Although Shen Changchuan wasn't sure what kind of living environment his divided spirit would be reborn into,
But having multiple survival skills is never a bad thing.

All these mundane skills have been mastered and are engraved on the progress bar panel!

Even though the clones can't see the progress bar panel, they instinctively know the skills displayed on it!
In addition to the past six months,

By consuming the rare and precious materials that Shen Changchuan had seized from the Seven Absolutes Mountain Treasury to nourish his soul, he had already raised his soul to its peak.

"All is ready except for the opportunity!"

"it's time!"

After calming himself down and making sure he hadn't overlooked anything, Shen Changchuan's gaze became incredibly firm.

In the beginning,
He was simply interested in another world, so he wanted to go and see if he could bring back some resources from that world to enrich and improve himself.

but now,
He undoubtedly had a compelling reason to go!
The disconnect between his speed of comprehending true meaning and the speed of his cultivation advancement meant that if he didn't want to form a flawed Xuan Dan realm in the future,

The only way is to travel to another world by distracting oneself, obtain resources, and return to nourish oneself, so that one's cultivation level can also be rapidly improved, catching up with the speed of comprehending the true meaning!

Only the resources and fruits brought back by the divided spirit and clones,
Only in this way can one rapidly improve their cultivation level without side effects, and even lay a solid foundation for their cultivation!

So, he had no choice but to embark on the journey of traversing the world, whether he wanted to or not!
Prepare yourself mentally.

Take a deep breath.

Shen Changchuan left a message outside the cave entrance indicating that he was going into seclusion.

Then the figure vanished in a flash.
They arrived at the inheritance space of the Dao Ancestor of Reincarnation.

Without further delay,

Shen Changchuan sat cross-legged on the white jade cushion.
Closed his eyes.
