Chapter 675: Chapter 238: Cultivation and Research

Night.

The clear moonlight spills down.

Lin Zheyu leisurely lies on a deck chair in the courtyard, with several plates of pastries and a jar of wine floating beside him.

"Wine, come!"

Lin Zheyu said softly.

Immediately, the floating wine jar drifted to Lin Zheyu’s lips, as if someone was holding it, automatically pouring him wine.

"Hey, this sense of control is quite nice."

Lin Zheyu chuckled softly, and the wine jar floated back to the side.

This wasn’t spiritual sense but a capability possessed when one’s spirit grows strong to a certain degree.

Lin Zheyu referred to it as spiritual power!

He tried it out, and his spiritual power could extend only about ten meters from his body, not strong in combat.

However, the uniqueness of spiritual power made Lin Zheyu find it quite interesting.

As his spiritual power spread out, it seemed to become his eyes, transforming Lin Zheyu’s viewpoint to a godly perspective.

This feeling was different from sensing fields.

Sensing fields rely on perception of the outside world, forming a black-and-white 3D image in consciousness. Whereas spiritual power perception feels quite similar to seeing with the eyes.

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu’s expression changed.

The floating wine jar and pastries returned to the side table.

"Come in!"

Lin Zheyu said indifferently.

Outside the courtyard, Yuqing, preparing to enter, stopped mid-motion, a flash of bewilderment crossing her face.

"Master, this is the information sent by Lord Xie Biao."

Yuqing placed the information beside the table and spoke respectfully.

Lin Zheyu glanced at Yuqing with interest, in his spiritual power vision.

Yuqing appeared entirely unclothed to his eyes.

"Mm, you may leave."

Lin Zheyu nodded slightly, letting her leave.

Having detached himself from low-level vulgar amusements and indulged enough in gourmet delicacies, Lin Zheyu showed little interest in women like Yuqing, who weren’t considered of exceptional beauty.

"A fine ability, but its combat power is even less than that of Martial Artists at Qi Blood Realm, not strong in practical use."

"It’s time to cultivate spiritual sense, I wonder if there’s a cultivation technique like Guiyuan Skill in those storage bags."

Lin Zheyu mused quietly.

Among the eight storage bags acquired within the Demon God Barrier, only one was opened. Without spiritual sense, the others remained inaccessible.

After reading "Meridian Condensation and Acupoint Formation Skill," Lin Zheyu began to browse through the classics brought by Yuqing.

These classics were not cultivation techniques but books related to immortals, Tao, and Buddhism.

Regarding the Path of Immortals, Lin Zheyu knew little.

He was unsure how other cultivation techniques for immortals worked.

But with Guiyuan Skill, Lin Zheyu, through careful study and research over this period, had developed considerable insights.

Guiyuan Skill was different from Martial Dao.

This cultivation technique primarily cultivates the divine soul and mana, not strengthening the physical body, which instead grows stronger as the realm’s spiritual power improves.

Beginning with Guiyuan Skill requires sensing Qi and meditation.

Once Qi is sensed, one can absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth, while meditation is essential for bolstering the divine soul.

However, Lin Zheyu’s spiritual soul was already sufficiently powerful, strong enough to autonomously form a spiritual body, so he didn’t need this phase.

"Dispel distractions and focus the spirit, return the spirit to its origin and gather the divine soul..."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly while browsing through the classics.

The content of Guiyuan Skill was somewhat convoluted; the words were understandable individually, but their combination baffled Lin Zheyu.

Lin Zheyu continued reading late into the night.

He planned to use these books to comprehend the inexplicable phrases and cultivation methods within Guiyuan Skill.

The night was silent, with only the occasional chirping of insects around.

"Ah, I see now!"

Lin Zheyu’s eyes revealed realization.

He felt he should now understand how to cultivate.

"Guiyuan Skill..."

"Let’s call it Guiyuan Technique instead."

Lin Zheyu expressed the thought, intending to turn the cultivation content related to solidification within Guiyuan Skill into an independent cultivation technique.

[Heaven rewards diligence]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 2

Skills:

Illusion Flashing Soul-Chasing Step (Layer Three 89%)

Sacred Inference Spirit Skill (Layer Two 100%)

Primordial Infinite True Skill (Layer Three 78%)

A few moments passed.

Lin Zheyu looked at the data within his consciousness.

The data for Guiyuan Technique was still absent.

"Damn, misunderstood..."

Lin Zheyu shook his head speechlessly.

Cultivation of immortals and Martial Dao are two distinct systems.

Although Lin Zheyu used Sacred Inference Spirit Skill to bolster his spiritual soul to a level capable of forming a spiritual body,

he knew little about the soul-related cultivation knowledge within the Path of Immortals.

Guiyuan Skill wasn’t a beginner’s manual for novice cultivators.

Lacking foundational knowledge in cultivation of immortals, all had to be explored by himself, encountering numerous difficulties in cultivation.

Without thorough comprehension of the manual and understanding how to cultivate, it was impossible to form corresponding data in consciousness.

"Off to sleep, continue tomorrow."

Lin Zheyu packed away the books on the table and turned to enter the room.

...

"Uncle Master!"

"Uncle Master!"

"Haha, you’re really not dead!"

The loud voices yelled from outside the courtyard, Huang Youwei shouted excitedly.

"What nonsense are you saying."

Lin Zheyu gave him a glare.

Lowering his head, he continued studying the cultivation manual in his hand.

After returning to the sect, his life resumed its past tranquility.

Lin Zheyu devoted nearly all his time to the study and research of Guiyuan Skill.

Indeed, crossing into another discipline is like crossing a mountain.

The same goes for cultivation.

Obtaining an unannotated cultivation manual for immortals and relying solely on one’s own exploration for practice is as challenging as ascending to heaven.

Even with Lin Zheyu’s profound Martial Dao foundation and experience, he spent days without reaching the threshold.

But he felt he was close.

As time passed, browsing through classics and learning from tales of immortals and demons, he found explanations for some related terms.
