A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 26 Enjoyable!

"So now, should I first cultivate a few techniques to improve my combat power, then go to the Mo family mansion in Lanzhou Jiayuan City to find Doctor Mo and demand an explanation, and then wait for the Yue Kingdom's once-in-a-decade Ascension Conference to be held before joining Huangfeng Valley?"

"Or did you cultivate two techniques to aid you, and then take the Ascension Token directly to Huangfeng Valley in Taiyue Mountain?"

Han Li was caught in a dilemma.

He'll first vent his anger on Doctor Mo, and he'll also get Yu Zitong's storage bag and that rare and precious "Blood Spirit Grass" along the way.

But this journey must have caused quite a bit of delay.

On the one hand, even using both water and land routes, it would take at least three months to travel from Jingzhou to Jiayuan City in Lanzhou. On the other hand, Doctor Mo might not have returned to the Mo residence in Jiayuan City at this time. If Doctor Mo is not there, and he were to travel to Jianzhou in the north of Yue Kingdom, the round trip would take him more than half a year.

What he lacks most right now is time.

After more than half a year of hard work, plus at least another six months to learn the techniques, it took more than a year.

Thus, he only has four years left to cultivate before the next Crimson Trial.

Four years of arduous training?

There are simply too few.

Trying to break into the forbidden area at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining?
It's practically lowering the bar for participants' moral character.

Therefore, the choice is quite clear.

...

Heading east, they returned to the Seven Mysteries Gate and once again entered that secluded little ravine to live in seclusion.

He decided that before heading to Taiyue Mountain to find Huangfeng Valley, he should first master a few techniques to protect himself. In particular, he needed to master the "Wind Control Technique," and ideally, combine it with the Luo Yan Step.

The combination of the Wind Control Technique and the Luo Yan Step allows him to unleash extremely fast speed.

The combination of Elephant Armor Technique and Luo Yan Step prevented his stamina from running out quickly.

In addition, the "fireball technique" and the "heavenly eye technique" must also be learned.

The Heavenly Eye Technique is a fundamental technique for discerning spiritual power.

Only by mastering this technique could he detect other cultivators when encountering them, preventing him from being completely unaware that someone was a cultivator even face-to-face. Moreover, this technique could not only observe cultivators but also detect demonic beasts and spirit beasts, making it an essential technique for survival in the desolate wilderness of the Spirit Mountain and Great Swamp.

Fireball is a low-level spell that is quite powerful and very practical.

Entering Mount Taiyue in search of the entrance to Yellow Maple Valley, one might encounter monsters in the desolate wilderness if luck is not on their side. Without a few lethal spells to deal with the low-level monsters they encounter, are they expected to rely on their gray sword and magical talisman every time?

Putting aside the fact that such a wasteful use of the talisman contains non-renewable and non-replenishable energy, simply taking out the talisman in front of the Yellow Maple Valley gate is a recipe for disaster.

If you can avoid revealing the Gray Sword Talisman, then don't show it.

A common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade.

As for why we chose a small mountain valley?
This place provides him with a familiar sense of security, is secluded and quiet enough, and allows him to replenish his daily necessities through Li Feiyu.

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed.

Finally, after countless trials and errors, he mastered the Wind Control Technique. By combining the Wind Control Technique with the Luo Yan Step, he overcame the shortcomings of the Wind Control Technique in terms of speed and explosiveness, and also alleviated the excessive physical exertion when using the Luo Yan Step.

"With the brand-new 'Luoyan Wind-Riding Steps,' I can now withdraw from many demonic beasts in time."

He was still somewhat confident in the movement technique he had devised.

Also.

He also mastered the Fireball Technique, also known as the Small Fireball Technique.

With his Qi Refining Level 3 cultivation, he could unleash a maximum of twelve small fireballs.

In other words, he could only fire a maximum of twelve fireballs in succession with the meager amount of magical power within him. While this couldn't compare to the hundreds of fireballs fired in succession by an eighth-level Qi Refining cultivator, it still provided him with a certain degree of self-defense capability, didn't it?

He also learned how to use the Gray Sword Talisman and the Vajra Talisman.

It's basically about injecting magic power to activate it, plus using incantations to help it run faster.

Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you don't need any incantations to activate it; your Foundation Establishment True Essence can easily activate it. But right now, he's just a nobody at the third level of Qi Refining. Activating talismans is fine, as it doesn't require much of his own mana. But activating magical treasures is different; he needs incantations to activate them.

And to what extent it can be activated depends on his mana reserves.

In short, there are still quite a few restrictions.

This day.

Han Li emerged from seclusion.

Feeling he had gained some experience, he looked up at Jianzhou in the northeast:

"It's time to set off."

On the mountain path leading to Chishui Peak, the two walked side by side. One was Li Feiyu, and the other was him.

He chose this path mainly because it held so many of his hopes.

The biggest expectation is undoubtedly the Heavenly Bottle.

For years, every time he passed these roads, he couldn't help but look down and examine the flowers and plants along the way, afraid of missing anything. Unfortunately, despite his persistence over the years, the small bottle never appeared.

Even so, he still harbored some illusions.

Just as the two reached the cliff platform where Manager Qian had designed the large kitchen, Li Feiyu stopped first and then spoke, breaking the silence between them:
When will you be back from this trip?

For some reason, he had a bad feeling about it.

Upon hearing this, Han Li raised his head, no longer looking at the grass on the ground, but instead focusing all his attention on his friend in front of him.
"Maybe he'll never come back."

His voice was calm and even, yet it reached the ears of the person next to him clearly.

"What do you mean?" Li Feiyu asked in surprise.

"I may never come back in this lifetime." This time, Han Li's tone was more serious, and a complex, bitter smile appeared on his face.

Without the Heavenly Bottle, could he really ascend to immortality?

Let alone ascending to the Immortal Realm or the Spirit Realm, even forming a Nascent Soul or a Core is difficult.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Feiyu asked, somewhat annoyed.

"Senior Brother Li, I'm going to pursue my dream." At that moment, Han Li's smile became much more cheerful.

As he spoke, he reached into his robes and took out several small bottles and a prescription:
"These medicines should be enough for you for the next few years. Unfortunately, the herbs in the Divine Hand Valley's medicinal fields are not complete or plentiful enough to prepare more for you. So, you'll have to learn to prepare medicines yourself from now on."

Han Li shoved several bottles into his dazed friend's arms and suddenly let out a long howl towards the cliff and deep valley in front of him.

The whistling sound carried a hint of reluctance and a resolute determination.

Before Li Feiyu could ask any more questions, he jumped off the cliff!
This time, he didn't take any safety precautions!

"Senior Brother Li, please look after my family for me, I beg you. There's a difference between immortals and mortals, and the path to immortality is fraught with peril. I don't know if I can reach that height in this lifetime, but I still want to try, and I must try..."

"If I can reach the pinnacle of immortality someday, let's meet again in the immortal realm!"

The Wind-Riding Technique allows one to rise with the wind and travel on its own.

Two hundred feet in the air, Han Li was like a large bird, moving forward seven or eight feet in an instant.

When the falling speed became too fast, he immediately tapped his feet lightly, and a wave of magical energy spread out. Then, he not only stopped falling, but also moved forward several feet in mid-air.

Amazing and incredible.

It's like actually gliding on the mountain breeze.

"Goodbye, Immortal Realm, goodbye..."

Without the Heavenly Bottle, does that mean he can't cultivate immortality?

Without the Heavenly Bottle, could he not have overcome the threat posed by Mo Juren?
Without the Heavenly Bottle, couldn't he leave this small mountain valley and see the wonders of the outside world?

No.

He can.

Even without the Heavenly Bottle, he could go very, very far.

"Why would I, Han Li, need that bottle to become an immortal and an ancestor?!"

"Screw your Heavenly Bottle!"

The long howls that followed jolted Li Feiyu out of her utter shock.

"Han Li, you..."

My own friend can actually fly?

Could this be the legendary magic of immortals?

As for Han Li, after he stopped worrying about the Heavenly Bottle, he suddenly felt as if he had broken free from shackles and cages, his thoughts were clear, and he was enlightened.

There's a genuine sense of ease and comfort, like breaking free from the super shackles you've set for yourself.

At that very moment, the Everlasting Spring Technique within his body began to operate spontaneously and rapidly. The bottleneck that had imprisoned him for three or four years and prevented his cultivation from making any progress actually loosened at this moment and then broke through on its own!
It's like a long-term accumulation of knowledge and experience, a natural and inevitable outcome?
With the breakthrough of the bottleneck, the magical power within his body increased greatly and became even purer.

The five senses also become more acute.

Most notably, his spiritual awareness underwent a transformation, and finally, the "first wisp of divine consciousness" was born.

This is also a sign of the fourth level of Qi Refining.

This change almost brought Han Li, who was preparing to show off his awesomeness in front of his friends and others, to tears of joy.

Then, even more hearty laughter erupted.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

"a ha ha ha…"
