Gou Zai Liang Jie as a Human Gu

Inside the [Mysterious Heaven Treasure Mirror].

Lin Mo opened his eyes, his expression somewhat dazed, as if he had just been rescued from drowning and it had taken him a long time to come to his senses.

"It even has location tracking!"

The spiritual imprint technique triggered the restriction, and the heavenly lightning immediately locked onto the target.

No wonder no one can absorb the [Nine Yang Purple Flower True Qi of the Sun] into their body, nipping it in the bud.

That's some pretty ruthless behavior.

If Lin Moruo hadn't had some kind of cheat code to protect him, he probably would have fallen into the trap too.

Read the cultivation technique [Eastern Jade Purity Great Sun True Explanation] from the sea of ​​consciousness.

His brows furrowed involuntarily.

The skill is incomplete; it only covers the part about absorbing Qi into the body.

Moreover, the path of Qi cultivation is far more complex than Wang Lu and Xu Changqing described, not simply a matter of consuming the "Nine Yang Purple Flower True Qi of the Sun" wherever there is sunlight.

He needs to use his magic to refine the fragmented Qi into complete true Qi.

For an ordinary cultivator to condense a complete stream of true qi, they need to continuously increase the thickness of their Dharma Spring Realm power.

This process is divided into nine stages.

With each advancement to the next level, a new spring of condensed magical energy will appear in the dantian.

Only after nine counts can one acquire the aptitude to condense complete true qi.

The process of refining must be completed in one go.

This process is extremely taxing on magical power. If one's magical power is not cultivated sufficiently, and one only manages to condense half of it, one will find that one's will is willing but one's strength is insufficient, and one will die from exhaustion.

There must be no interference during the process, otherwise the magic power will go berserk and the person will die on the spot.

"The Great Zhou's Qi Refining Path to Dao involves passing through three tribulations, while the Qi Absorption Path requires painstakingly accumulating magical power. Other cultivation methods involve combining magical techniques into supernatural abilities. It seems that the Qi Refining Path is an updated version of the Qi Absorption Path. I just don't know which version is superior?"

"I wonder if I can cultivate the [Eastern Jade Purity Great Sun True Explanation] if I return to the Great Zhou? I don't want to get locked out again if I start cultivating."

Lin Mo was somewhat worried.

But on second thought, it seemed unlikely.

To be able to kill across realms, that requires immense supernatural power.

This cultivator, who has placed restrictions on his cultivation technique, probably doesn't have that much ability yet.

Lin Mo composed himself and checked the life settlement on the sky.

[The Lord of Xuantian, reincarnated on the Star Luo Continent, joined the Creation Sect, was tricked by Sun Zhiyan into draining his life force, but turned the tables and drained her life force instead, seizing her spiritual root. Later, he faced death and was reborn, plotting to seize the cultivation technique "Eastern Jade Purity Great Sun True Explanation", and obtaining the mysterious superior cultivation Qi number, gaining +1000 luck points.]

"These cultivators from Biyang, having obtained such a fortune themselves, forbid others from cultivating as well. How despicable!"

Lin Mo grumbled as he entered the [Hall of Inquiry].

[Would you like to consume 1500 points of luck to refine the gains from this life simulation?]

Lin Mo immediately refined it.

The body, charred into a crisp by lightning, was thrown into the alchemy furnace.

The refining process was completed quickly.

A jade bead, as clear as glass, fell into Lin Mo's hand.

"This is?"

A message came in.

【One Yuan Bead】

[Efficacy]: Returning to the origin, it can refine all the energy in the world into the most primitive "Primordial Qi". "Primordial Qi" gives rise to two, two gives rise to three, three gives rise to all things, and can evolve into the myriad mysterious energies of the world.

[Defect]: One begets two, representing yin and yang. Yin alone cannot produce, and yang alone cannot grow.

Lin Mo: "???"

"What does this mean? Hey, stop playing riddles with me."

Lin Mo was somewhat helpless. The golden finger was good, but the magic weapon he created always had flaws, and he had to figure it out himself every time he used it.

This time, the riddle was even more enigmatic, leaving people completely baffled.

Despite his complaints, Lin Mo examined the [One Yuan Bead] in his hand; this bead had many uses.

Refining the myriad energies of heaven and earth back to their origin means that he can transform the three powers (heaven, earth, and man), yin and yang, the five elements, and the three thousand energies of the Great Dao, without any mutual generation or restraint among the five elements.

"Hehe, the Five Elements' generating and restraining relationships are useless to me. I wonder if I can transform them into [Hidden Dragon Candle Flame Qi of Dark Mountain]."

Lin Mo thought for a moment and realized that the transformation was definitely possible, but the karma and consequences of the previous dynasty's imperial achievements that it carried on it probably couldn't be transformed.

The reason is simple: this thing is bound to the soul.

Unless one's soul is reforged by karmic fire like that of the common people, it is absolutely impossible to clear one's name.

But after the soul is reforged, is it still oneself?

"I don't want to think about that anymore, let's go back to Da Zhou first."

Lin Mo left the [Inquiry Hall] and entered the [Myriad Realms Hall].

Looking at the career options in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lin Mo pondered for a while and then chose to consume 800 luck points to reincarnate as a Qing Shi.

He stepped into the Great Zhou Gate.

Opening his eyes, Lin Mo looked around and found himself in a paradise. There were fields and mulberry trees, bamboo groves and cottages, peach blossoms in full bloom, and the scenery was pleasant and the environment was very tranquil.

Inside the bamboo house, a furnace was burning brightly, and shelves next to it were filled with various rare medicinal herbs and finished pills.

"What kind of person have I become after restarting?"

The next moment, the memory surfaced in my mind.

"Lin Mo, from Peach Blossom Valley, is the sole disciple of the lineage of the divine physician Wei Chu, also known as the 'Guanyin Hand.' Just last month, Wei Chu died from exhaustion while testing the Longevity Pill for His Majesty… This is the official story; the truth is that he died from poisoning during the pill test."

"This way of dying... he deserved to die!"

Lin Mo had no good feelings towards his master, whom he had never met.

The concoction of elixirs of immortality was a waste of resources and manpower, purely to satisfy the selfish desires of a foolish ruler.

"But all of this is good for me. I need to replenish my essence when I'm refining my magic spring, so whether it's poisonous or not, it'll all go into my stomach."

Lin Mo carried a large handful of pills out the door.

He sat down in the courtyard of the bamboo house, facing the rising sun, and swallowed the pills in large gulps.

He activated the [Poison Refining] spell, refining even the most potent poisons.

Then, use the [Taotie] technique to absorb the Qi, gather the true heat of the sun, and practice the Qi cultivation method.

However, an unexpected event occurred. Due to the karmic consequences of the imperial cause, the [Hidden Dragon Candle Flame Qi of Mount Ming] automatically resonated with Lin Mo, using the Qi to manifest its power, and simultaneously condensing the power of the Qi Refining Dao within his body.

Two streams of magical power emerged simultaneously from within his dantian.

Using the [Hidden Dragon Candle Flame Qi of Dark Mountain] to manifest the Dharma, the power of the condensed Qi is refined.

And the magical power of gathering the true heat of the sun and condensing Qi.

The second stream of magical power was unlike the first time one comprehended the Dao of Qi Absorption; the condensed Qi Absorption magical power was extremely powerful, dispersing the meager Qi Refining magical power.

At this moment, the two streams of magical power, condensed by the elixir, were of equal strength, neither able to overcome the other, like fire and water, irreconcilable.

The conflict within Lin Mo intensified, preventing him from further cultivating the Dao of Qi Absorption and absorbing the true flames of the sun into his body.

The normal choice is to make a decision between the two, abandoning one method of practice and focusing on the other.

Then, the original magical power is dispersed, and then energy is spent to re-condense the magical power with a new technique.

This process will result in significant losses, and if one is not careful, even the foundation of one's path will be damaged.

However, these were not problems for Lin Mo at all.

The [One Yuan Bead] operates, and the Qi Refining Power dissolves and transforms into "Primordial Qi". The Primordial Qi then condenses into new power according to the Qi Absorption Method.

I sprayed it!

At first, it flowed out like a trickle from the ground, but gradually, it burst forth like an oil gushing from an oil well, its magical power surging forth endlessly.

The surging magical power cleansed his meridians, limbs, and bones, causing his physical body to undergo another qualitative change.

Too much spray.

boom!

In an instant, Lin Mo's spirit separated from his physical body and flew towards the sun.

O sun, grant me strength!

The roc spreads its wings and rides the wind, piercing through the clouds and breaking through the nine heavens, flying out of the atmosphere and looking back.

Lin Mo was stunned by what he saw.

The ancient land of the Great Zhou Dynasty beneath our feet, which has nurtured hundreds of millions of lives, is no ordinary planet.

And a white jade pendant suspended in the void.

The jade pendant contains a perfectly round and warm jade ball, which is the vast world, the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, cities and valleys of the Great Zhou Dynasty, all imprinted on the white texture of the jade ball. Rivers are the flowing patterns of jade, mountains are the raised jade texture, and the smoke and fire of human life are like specks of light, slowly floating and sinking on the surface of the jade ball.

Outside the jade sphere, a perfectly formed jade ring encircles and wraps around it, like a celestial cage, steadily supporting the jade sphere inside. Between the jade ring and the jade sphere, a hazy jade-colored mist flows, which is the world's clouds and seas.

The entire jade pendant floated silently in the boundless, dark void.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Mo was suddenly enlightened, and a name naturally came to mind.

【Baiyujing】!
