Daoist Master Of Qing Xuan Chapter 194 - Divine Fox

Chapter 194 - Divine Fox

Until the fatigue in his mind and spirit disappeared, Shen Lian had a really comfortable feeling as the burden on his heart decreased significantly.

This was something like when he was still of human flesh, he transcended a borderline condition through exercises that were meant to break the limits of the body where all his worries were gotten rid of.

With this powerful mind and spirit, it was already hard to have this kind of feeling. The forty portraits left by the immortal Zhenrens attacked his mind and spirit, pus.h.i.+ng him to a breaking point.

Finally, the portrait of Grandmaster Qingshui calmed his tensed mind and spirit with the Taixu appearance of the forever accepting, she resolved the charms of the previous portraits without a trace.

Even though Shen Lian did not get any substantial improvement, but the nature of his spirit had gotten a subtle transformation. Speaking from a certain degree, his Yin spirit could possess characteristics of the primordial spirit of the immortal Zhenren. He felt that spirit had firmed up even more. If the Yin spirit transformed from the spirit was like sun-dried mud bricks, now it had characteristics of green bricks.

The mud brick would fall apart with a touch but the green brick was more stable. The primordial spirit of the immortal Zhenren would take shape when it comes together and would become Qi when it is dispersed. When it takes shape, it was tough. When it becomes Qi, it was like a wisp of smoke which makes it hard to hurt it.

Shen Lian then got up and began looking at the jade scrolls. Now, he could not waste his time and energy to be involved with other Dao techniques but he should look for strange occult technique and supernatural power.

It was because he could not stay cowardy in Qing Xuan and only leave after Pow.a.n.g.

The immortal Zhenrens were formidable but there were certain occult techniques in this world that could give him a chance to keep his life when he faced a Dixian.

Shen Lian took down a jade scroll. The Dao technique recorded inside it was the Divine Aura s.h.i.+fting Method. Once it reaches the Dacheng state, one could change into a divine aura and reach hundreds and thousands of miles within a moment's notice.

This s.h.i.+fting method was formidable but it was no use to Shen Lian because it was meant for those who had the primordial spirit to cultivate. For an immortal Zhenren, the manifestation of the primordial spirit was no different than the flesh. Furthermore, there were more changes and more wonderful supernatural powers, plus there was also lesser obstacles.

The Divine Aura s.h.i.+fting Method would transform the primordial spirit into a divine aura. It can fly without a trace and the distance covered would be thousands and ten thousands of miles in an instance.

Shen Lian sighed slightly and let go. His cultivation experience was not enough after all.

He then took a few steps forward and took a jade scroll that float by in front of him. Now, he could differentiate these jade scrolls. The more dim ones were Dao technique related. There were less than two hundred of it, with most of it being the Qing Xuan hundred and eight techniques, and then the rest were other faction's orthodox exercises that Qing Xuan gotten or some of the incomplete incantations.

There were some that bobbed with brisk dexterity were supernatural Dao techniques and some other secret techniques. These things were unanimously referred as 'skill'.

Martial exercises mention about how to cultivate Dao, to explore the abstruse of the universe; as for 'skill', was to explain how to understand 'Dao' by oneself that cannot really be understood. To use the metaphor from his past life, the martial exercises were like the fixed formula and the 'skill' was the method in solving the equation, which also meant on using this fixed formula in real life.

This jade scroll surprised Shen Lian as it entered his hands.

The information trickled slowly into his mind and spirit. He somehow remembered what was recorded inside it. This scroll did not only record the divinity of the supernatural power, but it was also an essay.

This was a letter by a certain 'Divine Fox'. What was a divine fox? There was a record in the Strange Tales of Divines and Demons: 'Divine Fox, fifty years old. Can transform into a woman; becomes a beautiful lady and shaman at a hundred years old, knows about external matters from thousands of miles, p.r.o.ne to enchantment, causing others to lose their wits; able to connect with the heavens at a thousand years old.'

Shen Lian remembered an incident that had happened many years ago. That time, he was still at the State Capital of Qing and he was invited by a female fox deity, Xin s.h.i.+siniang, to the Qielan Temple outside of the city to meet her father, Xin Qubing, who was also an old fox deity.

It was this old fox deity that advised him to enter Qing Xuan, it seemed as though there was something he wanted in Qing Xuan.

From the looks of it, this letter by the Divine Fox was what the old fox deity wanted.

The Divine Fox belonged to the demon clans, it could also be said that they were born celestial beings. They did not need to cultivate. Once they reach a certain age, they would possess the relative mana and supernatural powers. Until after a thousand years later, they would have fully grown and their strength would match the Great Demon Sage.

Compared to the other living beings who have to cultivate with hards.h.i.+p where even then the hope to attain Dao was uncertain, the Divine Fox was loved and favored by the universe.

It was also because of this that the Divine Fox was extinct. It had been a long time since there were appearances of a Divine Fox in this world.

But for the Divine Fox to obtain Dao from birth, naturally, there were unusual areas to it.

The letter of the Divine Fox in Shen Lian's hand had recorded two martial exercises and divine skills that were enough to cause a bloodbath if it leaked out. The martial exercise was called the Divine Fragrance Spell. The great thing about this martial exercise was that it was an act of spiritual enhancement, similar to his Mastery of Senses.

However, the Divine Fragrance Spell was still nothing compared to Shen Lian's Mastery of Senses. The Divine Fragrance Spell teaches about refining the thoughts of the pilgrims into a divine fragrance and absorbed into one's body. Even though the distracting thoughts of the ma.s.ses were purified into divine fragrance, it was still not fully pure. Once it enters the body, one still had to work hard to get rid of the impurities.

But to be able to grow the spirit was truly a great feat.

After all, Shen Lian also understood that his art of spiritual enhancement was self-supplied and no external sources were needed, it was truly a kind of miracle.

Shen Lian already experienced the benefits of having a strong spirit during cultivation so naturally, he would understand the Divine Fragrance Spell was a very formidable helping method for cultivation. Also, to cultivate together with the enhancement of the spirit and the practice of Qi, there was no conflict and in fact, it complimented each other.

With his experience of cultivating the Mastery of Senses, it was more than easy for him to understand the Divine Fragrance Spell. After all, even though this secret art of spiritual enhancement was formidable but it seemed that Divine Fox that left this record did not really take it seriously. It was still rough around the corners and it was nowhere as exquisite as Zhao Xiaoyu's Book of Nine Lotus.

Of course, the Divine Fragrance Spell was not Shen Lian's biggest catch in this letter. It recorded another secret skill — Tongtian Skill.

It turned out that the birth of the Divine Fox would draw the envy of others. Also, before becoming a true Divine Fox, there was no strong mana to move unhindered through the universe. During this moment, to escape the fate of being captured by other and be made into a spiritual beast or be used for other purposes, they needed a method to avoid death and prolonged life.

The Tongtian Skill was that ingenious skill. Once one has cultivated it, one can use one's spirit to sense the will of the heavens. If anyone wishes to do harm, one can get a perception earlier.

Naturally, it would not be close to reaching the Heavens if that was all it could do. But once this skill was truly displayed, one could even sneak into any kind of dangerous places without a trace. Even those with a huge mana would not be able to detect it.

To be able to have a Divine Fox to compliment one as 'having great mana', that person would have the capabilities of an immortal Zhenren.

Before the Divine Fox was grown up, they did not have the highest mana so the conditions to cultivate Tongtian Skill was not harsh. Furthermore, the Divine Fox who left this letter was truly great. She was able to get a clear picture of the profoundness within skill that was originally a G.o.d given supernatural power to the Divine Fox and actually allowed others to cultivate and practice it.

Of course, not everyone could do so. The Tongtian Skill had a high requirement for the spirit, which was why it was recorded together with the Great Skill of Divine Fox.
