Star Core Pearl, Merit-Imbued Energy

Upon receiving the storage ring from Qin Shenwu, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t even look at its contents before promptly expressing his gratitude to his Shifu.

“Thankyou for the treasure. I am endlessly grateful.

My appreciation for your kindness is truly…”

“Alright, alright,” Qin Shenwu interrupted with a laugh, waving his hand at Jiang Chengxuan.

“I’m aware of your gratitude. The priority now is for you to familiarize yourself with the way of cultivation in the Spiritual Realm.

Also, remember to first refine the protective treasure I’ve given you.”

“Yes!”

Jiang Chengxuan immediately responded respectfully.

Soon, he was led by Zhao Tianfan to an independent cave abode.

“This will be your cave abode on Shenwu Peak from now on, junior brother.

In the future, if Shifu summons us and we need to live on the mountain, you can stay here.”

Zhao Tianfan reminded him before leaving.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded in understanding.

Once the door of the cave abode was closed, he sat down cross-legged and took out the storage ring Qin Shenwu had given him.

Upon inspecting it with his divine sense, he couldn’t help but show a look of surprise.

The storage ring contained a vast array of cultivation resources, virtually everything one might need.

With these resources, he wouldn’t even need to leave his cave abode. He could slowly advance his cultivation to the ninth level of Soul Formation and his body-tempering cultivation to the peak of Level 6.

His Shifu had truly gone above and beyond.

Among the treasures was a silver-white pearl that radiated dazzling light.

It was the Star Core Pearl.

Upon trying to refine it according to the method described, Jiang Chengxuan quickly understood the pearl’s general capabilities.

This protective treasure, specially prepared by Qin Shenwu, boasted formidable defensive abilities. I

It could withstand most attacks at Soul Formation level, including attacks targeting the Primordial Spirit.

If it was activated at full force, it could even withstand the attack of a Void Returning Divine Lord in the Dharma Form Realm up to three times.

However, after such use, its internal astral power would be depleted and would need to be recharged in an area rich in starlight before it could be used again.

This was indeed a powerful protective treasure, offering substantial benefits even to a Void Returning Divine Lord.

Additionally, there was the opportunity to enter the Mount of Five Elements Divine Reincarnation every ten years.

At some point, a token engraved with the five elements had appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s hand.

The token Jiang Chengxuan held could allow him to enter the Mount of Five Elements Divine Reincarnation.

According to the agreement, he currently had the opportunity to enter the mountain, and if ten years passed without him entering, this opportunity would accumulate, allowing him to double his stay during his next visit.

Yes.

Upon entering the mountain, his time inside would be limited to one month.

The gains during this period depended entirely on his own efforts.

As for the cultivation of the Five Elements Spirit Technique and the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique, up to this point, Jiang Chengxuan had encountered no confusion in cultivating the former.

He might need to consult his Shifu, Qin Shenwu, only when approaching a breakthrough to Void Returning.

At other times, he could cultivate on his own.

However, cultivating the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique would require more effort.

According to the technique, it could only be successfully cultivated by those with an open heart, free of dark and sinister thoughts.

This “open heart” doesn’t imply rigidity but a positive disposition, grounded in principles and moral boundaries.

It doesn’t mean that all cultivators of this technique are paragons of virtue who don’t calculate and scheme.

If that were the case, the Haoran Sect could not have lasted so long in the vast Celestial Floodgate Realm, let alone maintain a considerable foundation in the Immortal Realm.

The main issue now was that cultivating the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique would likely consume a lot of time, starting with a minimum of a hundred years, to have a firm assurance of condensing the Righteous Energy as mentioned by his Shifu, Qin Shenwu.

Of course.

Once he condenses the Righteous Energy, the cultivation of this technique could temporarily be put on hold.

The technique would then operate on its own, with the Righteous Energy inside him autonomously growing stronger.

Ultimately, the positioning of the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique by his Shifu, Qin Shenwu, was as an auxiliary to their main technique, the Five Elements Spirit Technique.

The inclusion of the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique would enable them to advance further and broader on their cultivation path.

As Jiang Chengxuan began his cultivation journey within the Haoran Sect, far in the Thunderclap Valley, Shen Ruyan had already completed the first phase of her cultivation there.

This first phase alone elevated her from the seventh level of Soul Formation to the eighth level, alongside mastering a new lightning-based divine power named “Primordial Unified Qi Thunder,” a technique whose power was no less than her current Great Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Thunder.

Time passed bit by bit.

Eighty years passed in the blink of an eye.

After eighty years of diligent cultivation on Shenwu Peak, Jiang Chengxuan finally succeeded in condensing a wisp of Boundless Righteous Energy within his body.

Although referred to as a wisp, it was essentially a small vortex of airflow.

According to the descriptions in the Boundless Righteous Energy Technique, the small vortex within Jiang Chengxuan truly qualified as Boundless Righteous Energy.

[Ding.]

At the moment Jiang Chengxuan condensed this wisp of energy, a system notification echoed in his mind.

[Congratulations, host. You have achieved the condensation of the Boundless Righteous Energy. You have received merit enhancement.]

It was also at this moment that Jiang Chengxuan immediately realized that the small vortex of energy in his body was gradually dyed with a layer of gold.

It was the color of merit.

This Boundless Righteous Energy of his had become a merit-imbued Righteous Energy?

Jiang Chengxuan was surprised.

He wasn’t entirely sure of the special functions this merit-imbued Boundless Righteous Energy possessed, but he speculated that it must hold many extraordinary properties compared to the initial Boundless Righteous Energy.

The specifics would require further exploration and understanding in the future.

At this moment, he sensed that the restrictions of his cave abode were lightly activated, indicating someone was approaching or attempting to make contact.
