Dark Immortal Cultivation

It was already dark when Zhang Qing got home.

He closed the door, flicked a tiny flame with his finger, and precisely lit the oil lamp on the table.

The dim, yellow light silently illuminated the room.

Sitting down at the small table, Zhang Qing took out a thin book from his pocket.

The book's cover prominently displays the four characters "Aura Technique".

This is a magic book that he bought from Changfeng Huixun Hall for a large talisman.

In fact, many low- to mid-level Qi cultivation spells or Daoist manuals are sold at markets or night markets.

The price can be even lower.

However, the authenticity of these cultivation manuals is not guaranteed at all, and there are many counterfeit ones.

Aside from ignorant novices, who would dare to buy it for cultivation?

A word difference is a world of difference!

Changfeng Huixuntang would never use inferior hand-copied goods to cheat its own people, so Zhang Qing would be willing to pay ten times the price, let alone a large talisman.

By the light of the oil lamp, he carefully read through the book "The Art of Aura".

It should be said that this spell is not difficult to learn, but it does require a certain level of cultivation from the practitioner.

The "Spiritual Light Technique" actually consists of two parts. The first part is the foundation, and even those at the first level of Qi Refining can learn it.

However, the spells cast only have a light effect.

To possess the power to exorcise evil spirits, one must master the second half of the method and then use the cultivation level of the third stage of Qi Refining to unleash it!

Zhang Qing originally wanted to test whether he could take on a challenge that was above his level, given his current spellcasting attribute.

But now his thinking has changed.

Opening the data panel, Zhang Qing's gaze fell on the last column of attributes.

[Powerful: 0.5]

The next moment, he reached out and gently pressed his hand on the book in front of him.

This thin book immediately emitted a faint glow in Zhang Qing's vision.

This is a trait that can be enhanced!

The question is, after investing in Power Points, will the enhanced "Aura" spell be what I need?

Just as this thought crossed Zhang Qing's mind, the target he was locked onto suddenly swayed.

To be precise, it was the light emanating from the calligraphy that shifted.

In that instant, a flash of inspiration struck Zhang Qing, giving him a sense of profound mystery.

The feeling was incredibly strange, as if a voice from the depths of the universe was asking him a question.

Strengthen the requirements for "Aura of Light"!

At this moment, Zhang Qing was filled with a shock that words could not describe.

He has always obtained powerful energy and then directly added points to the four major attributes.

The only exception was when we tried it on a wooden puppet.

The result was a loss of 0.1 units of energy, which only repaired one of the artifact's wounds.

But whether it was investing in attributes or giving him a wooden puppet, Zhang Qing had never encountered such a situation before.

It turns out he can request enhancements from the data panel.

Or rather, what direction should be proposed for strengthening?

This is fantastic news!

Zhang Qing was both surprised and delighted when he realized what was happening, and he wished he could grab the "Spiritual Light Technique" book on the table and kiss it.

If it weren't for this new cultivation manual being brought over today...

He had no idea that the data panel's enhancement features could be used in this way!

calm down!

Zhang Qing suppressed his excitement and began to think about the requirements for strengthening.

First and foremost, you must be able to fully master it; otherwise, what's the point of practicing something that's neither good nor bad?

Secondly, we must strengthen our ability to control evil forces!

A mid-grade talisman for warding off evil is certainly quite good.

But Zhang Qing can no longer afford to buy them, and these talismans are all one-time use, and he doesn't have the ability to refine them.

Therefore, mastering a spell with the same effect as an exorcising talisman is Zhang Qing's current urgent need.

That's all I need!

Once the thought was made up, Zhang Qing had no more hesitation and focused his mind on the "Spiritual Light Technique".

Add some points!

The next moment, the thin book in his palm suddenly shone brightly.

A moment later, the light faded.

Zhang Qing moved his palm away.

The book "Aura Techniques" lay quietly on the table, showing no signs of anything amiss, exactly as it had before.

But when Zhang Qing eagerly opened the cover, he immediately discovered that the contents had changed!

With great excitement, he read it again.

The original "Spiritual Light Technique" contained more than two thousand words, including annotations.

The enhanced version of the book didn't add much content.

However, the most crucial methods have changed drastically.

It's much more profound.

Interestingly, the content of the annotations also changed.

When Zhang Qing read and comprehends, he finds it smooth and easy, without the slightest obstacle, and even gains insights!

That's absolutely awesome!

If it's the original book, although the techniques recorded inside have detailed annotations, the difficulty of self-study is not very high.

But that doesn't mean Zhang Qing can understand it just by reading it.

After all, everyone's understanding and experience are different.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Qing might encounter difficulties that he cannot avoid.

So I had no choice but to ask others for advice.

For example, the Dharma Transmission Elder in the Changfeng Huixun Hall.

It just requires payment.

In fact, paying is just a minor matter. If Zhang Qing takes this enhanced "Spirit Light Technique" to the Dharma Elder for instruction...

The consequences were completely unpredictable.

It's important to understand that techniques like those in the original book have been passed down for thousands of years, inevitably undergoing numerous revisions and simplifications along the way.

The current version can't be said to be perfect.

At least cultivators at the Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, or even Golden Core stages cannot modify this!

Therefore, Zhang Qing could only learn the enhanced version of "Spirit Light Technique" on his own.

Fortunately, his proposed reinforcement requirements included this aspect, which inadvertently solved a major problem!

Zhang Qing let out a long sigh of relief.

Although the message "Everything can be enhanced" on the data panel has always been there.

But until this very moment.

He then truly experienced the power of this ability!

Holding the book in both hands, Zhang Qing began to study and comprehend the new edition of "The Art of Aura".

Time passed little by little, and the yellowish-brown lamp oil in the lamp on the table gradually lightened.

Bang! Bang!

The three bangs jolted Zhang Qing awake.

He was shocked to find that the book of "Spiritual Light" in his hand had turned to ashes!

With a flick of his wrist, ash and dust slipped through his fingers.

But it doesn't matter.

Because the contents of the book were all engraved in Zhang Qing's mind, every word and sentence was crystal clear.

He can copy one out anytime he wants!

Not only that, Zhang Qing is now completely familiar with this enhanced "Spirit Light Technique". All he lacks is experience in cultivating and casting it!

His spellcasting attribute had already reached 2.7.

This is precisely our strength!

With a thought, the true energy in his dantian instantly rose, transforming into pure magical power that condensed in Zhang Qing's right index finger.

In an instant, a shimmering white light appeared at his fingertips.

In a single breath, the white light expanded dozens of times, radiating dazzling brilliance.

Zhang Qing's gaze sharpened, and he suddenly raised his hand and pointed forward.

The newly activated ball of light shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

Right in the middle!

The two talismans affixed to the door panel, illuminated by the silent burst of spiritual light, revealed a faint halo.

As if in response.

It's echoing!
