Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

Filled with anticipation, Su Chen continued practicing the Five Animal Frolics.

Raise your hand, swing your leg.

Time passed slowly.

Half an hour passed.

Su Chen stopped moving, and the Five Animal Frolics broke through the final barrier.

A warm current flowed through his body, nourishing him.

A notification sounded.

[Five Animal Frolics Perfected, Comprehension +9]

[Lifespan increased, Comprehension +4]

【Name: Su Chen (15 years old)】

Lifespan: 107 days

[Innate Talent & Comprehension: 212 (Extremely Rare)]

【功法:草上飞（圆满100%）、伏虎拳（圆满100%）、五禽戏（圆满100%）、清虚养元决（大成1%）、吐纳术（小成1%）】

[Taoist Techniques: Paper Cutting (Perfect 100%), Flower Blooms in an Instant - Imperfect (29%) (Beginner 99%)]

[Realm: Taoist (84%), 849 years of Taoist cultivation]

"This is?"

"Extremely rare?"

Seeing the new evaluation displayed after his comprehension broke through two hundred points, Su Chen's face was full of surprise.

"Phoenix feathers and unicorn horns" is a metaphor for something or someone that is extremely rare and precious.

If being an outstanding person is enough to be called a dragon or phoenix, then even among dragons and phoenixes, they are extremely rare...

suddenly!

A familiar cool sensation washed over him, cleansing his mind and consciousness.

In a daze, Su Chen seemed to see himself passing by one after another tall, elegant, and outstanding figure, a true dragon among men, and instantly surpassing them.

Soon, he was in front of them, with only a few people around him who could match him.

At this moment, he surpassed most of the geniuses who made a name for themselves in history and left their mark.

Even among the most outstanding people, they are extremely rare!

A sense of mystery and enigma washed over me.

He entered a state of sudden enlightenment.

Without hesitation, Su Chen began to comprehend the incomplete Daoist technique, "Flower Blooms in an Instant."

He didn't know how much time had passed when he came to his senses and heard a notification sound.

[Achieving minor success in blooming flowers, Comprehension +60]

[Taoist Arts: Paper Cutting (Perfect 100%), Flower Blooms in an Instant - Imperfect (69%) (Minor Success 99%)]

[Innate Talent & Comprehension: 272 (Extremely Rare)]

As soon as Su Chen regained consciousness, he felt that his comprehension had increased significantly.

Seeing the Daoist flower bloom in an instant, which was only slightly completed, and with 272 points of comprehension, a look of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

"His comprehension has increased to 272 points in such a short time?"

Thinking about it, Su Chen was also a little curious about what the next level of comprehension was, given how rare it was.

A breakthrough of 300 points in comprehension?

Then, he shifted his gaze from comprehension to the minor achievement of the Flower Blooming in an Instant Daoist Technique.

He started trying it and soon got results.

The range of the Taoist magic has increased to more than fifty feet, and it can perform five "Flower Blooms in an Instant" spells at once!

The efficiency and speed of absorbing nutrients from all five flowers together are immeasurably faster!

Su Chen felt alright.

It can be said that the moment the Taoist magic flower bloomed, it almost turned into a group attack!

After testing the Flower Blooming Instant Dao Technique, he focused his attention on the panel, which showed the Great Completion of the Pure Void Nourishing Yuan Technique, the Minor Completion of the Breathing Technique, and his 849 years of Dao cultivation.

Next, I will try to comprehend the Pure Emptiness Nourishing Yuan Technique and the Breathing Technique to perfection, and also push my cultivation to a thousand years!

Su Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to comprehend the Pure Void Nourishing Yuan Technique.

When he occasionally got tired of meditating, he would pick up a Taoist scripture to read.

Two more days have passed in the blink of an eye.

early morning.

Su Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, and wisps of spiritual energy from the world rushed toward him.

Suddenly, the speed at which he absorbed inspiration increased dramatically.

A notification sound then rang out.

[Complete the Pure Void Nourishing Essence Technique, Comprehension +20]

[Innate Talent & Comprehension: 292 (Extremely Rare)]

[Realm: Taoist (88%), 882 years of Taoist cultivation]

Su Chen opened his eyes and murmured, "Is this the Perfected Level of the Pure Void Nourishing Essence Technique?"

A faint wisp of spiritual energy from the heavens and earth rapidly surged into his body.

He silently made a calculation.

If he didn't use the "Flower Blooms in an Instant" technique and simply cultivated using the "Pure Void Nourishing Essence Technique," with the added benefit of his strong comprehension, he could increase his cultivation level by a year in about twenty days!

"My comprehension is almost 300 points..."

Su Chen's gaze fell upon the complex and profound breathing technique, which was still at the initial stage of mastery.

He closed his eyes and began to comprehend the cloud-like Daoist inscriptions in his mind.

In his mind, countless cloud-like Daoist characters wriggled and twisted, revealing the profound mysteries of heaven and earth.

In an instant, Su Chen sensed the difference. In his perception, the Cloud Talisman Dao Inscription of the Breathing Technique was much simpler, and it seemed that he could master the Breathing Technique in just about a month.

It can only be said that such exceptional comprehension is truly extraordinary.

Su Chen opened his eyes and glanced at his comprehension, which was close to 300 points.

"During this time, I'll find another sword technique to practice and see if I can raise my comprehension to 300 points..."

Ordinary sword and knife techniques are quite common; you should be able to find them in the markets of Guobei County.

besides……

His attention was entirely focused on his magical power and cultivation.

Tonight, I'll search for ghosts and demons with all my might, and quickly raise my cultivation level to a thousand years!

……

night.

The bright moonlight shone down.

The silvery light, like water, quietly spread across the desolate wilderness outside Guobei County.

The wild grass gleamed with a cold white light, swaying gently in the night breeze, and the dirt road meandered out in the moonlight.

Several withered trees stood in the wild, their branches casting long, eerie shadows.

Su Chen, dressed in a moon-white silk robe, floated continuously in the dark air.

He slowly searched for ghosts and monsters near Guobei County.

Then, Su Chen's expression turned strange as he gradually realized something was amiss.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that there were very few ghosts and monsters near Guobei County; they were almost impossible to find.

It was as if they had received word and had already begun to flee Guobei County.

Suddenly, there were almost no traces of ghosts and monsters near Guobei County, and it seemed to have become the safest county!

Su Chen was somewhat troubled.

……

the other side.

It is more than 20 miles away from Guobei County.

In the desolate mountains and forests, the temple walls and tiles are broken and entangled by wild vines and withered tendrils.

The wind howled and whistled.

The temple gate was half-collapsed, the wooden planks were rotten and black, and the shadows were extremely long, as if they would collapse at any moment.

A somber atmosphere filled the palace as a wind swept through, carrying the sound of someone sobbing softly, a sound that was both a cry and a sigh.

The Buddha statue inside the hall was incomplete, with peeling gold paint and its face blurred in the darkness, its empty eye sockets staring at the visitors.

Cobwebs covered the beams and pillars, dust drifted in the wind, and occasionally a night breeze would pass through the hall, causing the candlelight to flicker as if something invisible was moving in the dark.

Ancient trees stand tall outside the temple, their branches casting long, slanting shadows that block out the sunlight.

The chirping of insects in the forest suddenly stopped, leaving only the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves.

Tall and imposing, with a rugged frame, slightly disheveled hair and beard, graying temples, a weathered look on his face, and worn-out clothes, Yan Chixia, carrying a sword box on his back, also noticed something was amiss when he went out.

During this period, apart from Lanruo Temple, almost all the demons and monsters in the vicinity of Guobei County have disappeared!

His face was filled with doubt and surprise.
