Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

The banquet ended in less than half an hour.

After all, everyone was just trying to connect and build rapport.

Whether it was Wang Quan, Qian Xiuyue, or the others, they all practiced their magic at night.

Everyone was reluctant to waste time, so they finished early.

At this moment, Qian Xiuyue and the others began to prepare for the practice. They took a large flag and fixed it in a certain position.

Wang Quan quickly recognized it as a set of the [Zhou Tian Xing Chen Grand Array].

The lower and upper limits of this magic array's power differ by a factor of ten thousand.

The stronger the magic power of the person activating it, the greater its power.

Even at its weakest, it can only gather starlight.

At its most powerful moment, it can evolve stars within it, creating a temporary world.

Qian Xiuyue said apologetically, "Wang Quan, the area we're jointly collecting starlight from is a bit too large. Why don't you try another mountain?"

Wang Quan nodded: "No problem!"

He didn't care about such trivial matters.

Soon, Qian Xiuyue and the others began practicing their exercises:

They exhaled breaths of magic onto the flagpole, and the next second, the flagpole fluttered, and the starlight was gathered together.

Pieces of starlight fell, a third of which were swallowed by the flagpole, a third fell to the ground, and a third were swallowed by Qian Xiuyue and others.

Wang Quan estimated that the range of starlight collected by these people working together was about the same as the range of moonlight he collected by himself.

"I just don't know how much magic power they can cultivate in one night."

Because moonlight is also part of starlight, Wang Quan, fearing he would be affected, went directly to the neighboring mountain.

The mountain is covered with lush vegetation, but there are no people living there, only many small animals.

As for the spirits, they were all tricked into working by Qian Xiuyue and the others.

He sat upright on the boulder, took out many tools, and prepared to gather moonlight to refine his magic.

Just then, within the Zhou Tian Star Array, a cultivator suddenly spoke up: "Xiuyue, is it possible for Wang Quan to join us?"

Qian Xiuyue shook her head: "Wang Quanneng studied Taoist scriptures for several years, and even after practicing the Dharma, he continued to study them. This is enough to prove his steadfastness."

"The kind of person he is doesn't easily change his plans."

"It might be difficult to get him to convert to the fundamental teachings and join us."

One of the cultivators laughed: "By joining forces to gather so much starlight, each of us can refine a third of our magical power in one night."

"This efficiency is quite astonishing."

"He'll definitely be envious once he discovers how fast we've improved our cultivation speed."

"If we tempt him a little more then, the chances of success are pretty good!"

Qian Xiuyue nodded.

At that moment, a monk nearby said, "Look, he's starting to gather moonlight!"

"Wow, how come he has so many auxiliary materials?"

"But it's no use having more."

"His efficiency alone is far less than our combined efforts and the added benefit of this Star Flag."

These 365 star-studded flags are one of the foundations the organization has given them.

It is said that this set of Star Flags is worth tens of millions of coins.

Once the manor is built, this set of star flags will remain there forever.

If the construction fails... the organization will take away the Star Banner, and they will naturally lose their eligibility to join the organization.

When the time comes, without any powerful backers, they will lack confidence when facing Zhao Hongyi.

At this moment, Qian Xiuyue and the others saw a hazy moonlight appear on the mountain where Wang Quan was.

Initially, the moonlight only covered an area of ​​about 100 meters.

But soon, it was 500 meters... 1000 meters... 1100 meters...

A large amount of moonlight, like a band of light, penetrated the jade plate, and then the jade plate transformed the moonlight, with some of the moonlight flowing into the eight phases of the moon.

Finally, I took some cigarettes and landed inside the Royal Palace.

"What a large harvesting area."

Qian Xiuyue was surprised.

Even with the help of the flagpole formation, several of them working together could only collect starlight within a kilometer radius.

Wang Quan alone could gather a thousand meters of moonlight.

"It seems that his version of the fundamental law is quite advanced."

"He's got so much moonlight all to himself... how much magical power can he cultivate in one night?"

"If I had studied the Taoist scriptures with him back then, perhaps the current version of the practice would be even more advanced!"

"Perhaps... my refining efficiency is the same as his?"

For a moment, Qian Xiuyue felt a pang of regret.

The other monks also showed expressions of regret.

Back then, we all studied Taoist scriptures together.

However, the one who persisted the longest was Wang Quan; and the other party is still studying it now.

But they all gave up.

At this moment, a cultivator sighed, "The more Daoist scriptures he studies, the more powerful his fundamental method becomes."

"Over time, the gap between them and us will widen."

"I'm afraid it won't be more than a year or two before he surpasses us."

After observing for a while, Qian Xiuyue sighed and said, "The difference between us practicing the method two or three years earlier was easily wiped out by the Daoist scriptures."

"How...ridiculous!"

"No wonder the lower house keeps reminding us to study the Taoist scriptures more. It seems... the Taoist scriptures are really helpful to us."

At this point, she gritted her teeth and said, "Everyone, once the manor is built, I will continue studying the Taoist scriptures!"

Anyone want to come along?

The other cultivators glanced at the area where Wang Quan was gathering moonlight, then exchanged a final look: "Let's do it together then."

They were all from the same cohort, and they felt resentful watching Wang Quan catch up with and surpass them.

-----------------

Mountain top:

The king gathers moonlight.

This was the first time he had ever gathered berries outside the Lower House.

Although the harvesting area was still only about a kilometer, the moonlight falling down was significantly greater than that in the lower courtyard.

Unfortunately, although there was more moonlight, the efficiency of converting it into mana limited the generation of mana.

With more than an hour to go before dawn, he collected four streams of magical power.

This is one more step than he picked in the lower house.

The eight lunar phases were retrieved, as were many other materials, and finally, the white jade plate was recovered.

When the white jade plate fell, Wang Quan discovered that it was filled with a large amount of moonlight.

The moonlight is slowly fading away.

A thought struck him, and he formed a hand seal, releasing a magical power that condensed moonlight.

"Since I cannot fully refine it into magical power, why not refine it into the essence of the moon?"

"With the essence of the moon, I can enhance my celestial abilities and then create a second trait."

As he pondered, the moonlight was temporarily focused onto the jade plate.

After a short while, he put away the jade plate and then worshipped the moon.

At this time, it was still early before the purple aura appeared, and his magic power was recovering by gathering moonlight: "Then, I will enter the second layer of the world again and cleanse an evil."

With this in mind, he set up various measures around him and released paper figures as guards before his Yin spirit stepped into the second layer of the world.

The Yin spirit appeared directly in the main hall of the second level of the tomb.

Then he saw a lot of banners.

【Please, Brother Daoist, wait a moment!】

[Please help me, Brother Durenjing!]

Royal power...

He looked around and found the cultivator whose true form had descended the previous night standing under a banner, looking left and right.

"Brother Dao!"

Wang Quan went up to greet him: "I'm the one who mastered the 'Scripture of Saving People' yesterday!"

The cultivators were overjoyed at the arrival of this true form, their faces beaming with delight.

"Brother Daoist, we would like to request that you permanently cleanse the great tomb of some evil!"

"We are willing to provide you with magic pills and also pay you some Qingfu coins."
