When practitioners reached the realm Zhou Bao was in, their requirements of the essence of the world grew increasingly demanding. Zhou Bao, however, needed to pay more attention to comprehend the phase that he reached and to temper the pneuma inside his body. Thanks to his Primordial Spirits of Three Separations, he was able to gather Five Qis in the Chest. But the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations would not do him any good if he wanted to step into the Immortal Realm. What he needed to do was store an immense amount of pneuma inside his body and turn it into the Mysterious Icy Divine Light. After that, he had to connect his Sea of Consciousness through the power of the Mysterious Icy Divine Light and integrate it into his Divine Awareness. Nevertheless, that was not the end. He still needed to temper it with the Divine Tribulation. Only then could he enter the Immortal Realm.
And after reaching that realm, his Dharma power and Divine Awareness would be an integral whole, without any leakage of spirit. The micro world he refined would really be integrated into his body. He would then be independent of the world and become a free and unfettered Immortal.
If he really wanted to achieve that goal, the key was that he had to possess abundant Dharma power that was able to integrate his spirit into it. Although his Mysterious Divine Light was powerful and he had the Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints, and in addition to that, his Dharma power was many times denser than that of ordinary people, all of that was just not enough. Now, however, with the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill, he was capable of solving every problem.
This skill not only enabled his Dharma power to increase by leaps and bounds in a short period of time, but it also enabled him to completely refine the remaining Golden Real Essence Energy of the Innate Deity inside his body.
Yes, refine it completely.
His Eight Nine Mysterious Skill and Mysterious Divine Light could refine the original energy in the world as well, but they proved far less effective. The Golden Real Essence Energy surging in his body was like a mighty river, as well as ice that had formed for 10,000 years. He had only refined a small part of it over so many years. Now, the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill caused the pneuma around the world to be at his disposal, and also he was able to assimilate the Golden Real Essence Energy in the shortest time possible.
“Fate Creation Boy really didn’t deceive me. It won’t take me a long time to transform all the Golden Real Essence Energy into Dharma power and trigger the Immortal Tribulation!”
The more Zhou Bao deciphered the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill, the more fantastic he thought it was. What mattered most was that not everyone was able to learn this skill. Even if it were to be spread, only people who were proficient in five wonderful techniques, like Zhou Bao, could appreciate some of its mysteries, especially the method of exerting power and refining pneuma. And although its approach was different than that of the Heavenly Jade Technique and the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, they achieved an equally satisfactory outcome.
During the refinement, the device spirit of the Octupole Yin and Yang Mirror, who had been asleep for untold years, was slowly waking up.
Although this device spirit was familiar with Fate Creation Boy, they looked incompatible with each other because he was an old man with one foot in the grave and needed to catch his breath after saying a few words. But he was not to blame for that. Having been asleep for so many years, he could only vaguely hear Zhou Bao’s voice but could not speak coherently. If Zhou Bao had not refined the Octupole Yin and Yang Mirror and obtained the essential information about it, he probably would not have been able to acquire the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill.
However, this device spirit having a problem did not mean that the power of the mirror had been greatly weakened. As a Heavenly Fairy Weapon, aside from possessing the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill, this mirror only had two functions—defense and offense, with a white light that protected its owner and a red light that attacked enemies.
Simple as it was, it was extremely effective. Zhou Bao really thought he had picked up a treasure.
“How about your practice?”
On Taihua Mountain, Zhou Bao sat cross-legged on the floor and refined the Octupole Yin and Yang Mirror in front of these people.
Seeing that he had suddenly opened his eyes, Wang She was anxious to ask him.
“It’s highly successful. This mirror is really extraordinary!” Zhou Bao smiled and suddenly took a deep breath.
With Zhou Bao at the center, a huge vortex formed in the sky above Taihua Mountain immediately, as if the sky had collapsed.
“What is he doing?” seeing Zhou Bao’s actions, Wang She asked in confusion.
“The Yin and Yang Transformation Skill transforms Yin and Yang, and the essence of the world is at his disposal!” Fate Creation Boy smiled. “The first step of this skill is to turn the essence of the world into Yin and Yang Qi and the second step is to reverse Yin and Yang; if you need Yin Qi, then turn all the Yang Qi into Yin Qi, and vice versa. Furthermore, it costs him nearly nothing. This is an extremely weird skill. It can store up a good deal of Dharma power in the shortest time possible without any future trouble!”
“What? How is that possible? How can there be such a skill that violates the laws of nature?” Exclaiming in one voice, Wang She and Lord of Heaven Black Turtle were taken back, especially Lord of Heaven Black Turtle. He had practiced for hundreds of thousands of years and naturally understood the dangers of practice and the pain of transforming pneuma. But what did Fate Creation Boy mean?
To put it bluntly, this skill saved its owner from exhaling impurities. The only thing he needed to do was inhale. If he was capable of absorbing all the pneuma in a macro world, then the pneuma would become his Dharma power. It was just so unbelievable! How could there be such a good thing and such an excellent skill in this world? The two of them had extreme greed written all over their faces.
“Humph, don’t covet this skill. If you want to practice it, you must master the other five wonderful techniques aside from the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique. That’s because its subtleties are on the other five techniques and not a single one can be omitted. Therefore, only Zhou Bao is able to practice that in this world. As for the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique, it’s based on the other six techniques!”
“It sounds like you’re complimenting me, but why do I feel there is something wrong?”
“There’s nothing wrong with that. Originally, the Seven Wonderful Techniques were specially prepared for Tribulation Takers, but not every Tribulation Taker is qualified to learn them!” Fate Creation Boy laughed. “Say, Junior Leopard, why have I thought so highly of you all these years? I’ve been helping you in the darkness since you were a punk. I didn’t even fall out with you even though you took away almost all of the humans in my Heaven Realm World, and I still allow you to do whatever you want. Do you know why?”
“Is it because of the Seven Wonderful Techniques?”
“Yes, you’re right!” Fate Creation Boy chortled with delight. “I’ve helped you because I discovered that you mysteriously attained the Heavenly Jade Technique and Snake-like Breath Holding Skill!”
“Is there anything special in those two techniques?”
“The Seven Wonderful Techniques, as the name implies, consist of seven skills. But in fact, they can be divided into three parts. The first part consists of the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill and the Heavenly Jade Technique. They seem to be independent but supplement each other in reality. They are the two most widespread skills, and the rumor that several wonderful techniques used together will produce an amazing effect is spread by it. The second part consists of the Dharma Power-restoring Skill, the Immortal Body Technique, and the Red Centipede Mind-concentrating Skill. When they coordinate with each other and are practiced to perfection, the practitioner can come back to life again and is immortal. Now that you’re skilled in them, I guess you might have noticed that. They supplement each other and when they are executed at the same time, they can enhance the effect of other skills and enable the practitioner to be brought back to life on the spot. The third part consists of the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique and the Yin and Yang Transformation Skill. They contain Great Ways and are the two most mysterious and profound skills. The deeper you can comprehend them, the greater you will benefit. You’ll soon realize this. The Yin and Yang Transformation Skill alone helps you enter the Immortal Ream without much effort. And if you are lucky enough to acquire both of them, you can reach the Earthly Immortal Realm easily and probably will even achieve the Celestial Immortal’s Way!”
“You’re exaggerating, right?”
Zhou Bao was astounded. He was aware of how marvelous the Seven Wonderful Techniques were. They probably could help him step into the Earthly Immortal Realm, but to achieve Celestial Immortal’s Way and earn the title “Sage” were simply something that he was unable to imagine.
The gap between an Earthly Immortal and a Celestial Immortal was like the gap between an ordinary person and an Earthly Immortal. Only one out of a hundred billion people was able to become a Celestial Immortal. Since the Primordial Origin, only 10 people had earned the title “Sage”. The so-called Celestial Immortals, even in the era of ancient deities, were like the Creation Deity. They would not show their strength easily.
Of course, Zhou Bao knew a Celestial Immortal—Immortal Zhen Yuan. He even saw the legendary ginseng fruit tree. But that did not mean he would believe that he had seen the real person. The one he met and chatted with, at best, was a wisp of Immortal Zhen Yuan’s spirit.
Upon hearing that the Seven Wonderful Techniques could assist him in entering the Celestial Immortal Realm, he was struck dumb and did not know what to say.
“What? You don’t believe me?”
“If they are really so marvelous, how could I obtain them? Perhaps they have already been grabbed by those Earthly Immortals!”
“That’s Because I’m the only one who knows this secret in the Void Universe. Even those Celestial Immortals don’t know that!” The Fate Creation Boy said with a mysterious smile. “The information about the Seven Wonderful Techniques exists in my brand left by the mighty person who created the Heaven Realm World. He is also the creator of the Seven Wonderful Techniques!”
“The mighty person who created the Heaven Realm World?” Zhou Bao froze. Creating a macro world was the symbol of an Earthly Immortal. That is to say, any Earthly Immortal was able to create a macro world. Although macro worlds were different, just like the Heaven Realm World and his Azure Big World, at least he did not think that the Dharma of the Azure Big World was as perfect and balanced as that of the Heaven Realm World. No matter how perfect the Heaven Realm World was, it was merely created by an Earthly Immortal. Although there were Earthly Immortals who had cultivation that was very close to that of Celestial Immortals and were known as mighty people as well, that did not mean anything. How could an Earthly Immortal say that the techniques he created could help others become Celestial Immortals?
“The Heaven Realm World is the first macro world in this Void Universe and is also the most perfect one. Other macro worlds were created based upon it!”
