Chapter 210 – The Method of Refining the Gods
Chapter 210: The Method of Refining the Gods
Xu Chuniang nodded, indicating that she knew.
After Gu Yuanan left, she didn’t continue practicing, but went back to the same practice room she had yesterday, sitting in meditation to nourish her Yuan Shen with her spiritual qi.
Cultivation wasn’t something that could be done overnight, and she wouldn’t force herself to do a lot of repetitive exercises when her divine sense was tired.
After several hours of meditating, Xu Chuniang opened her eyes, feeling that her spirit had become full once again.
She didn’t try practicing the Sword Royal Art again, but instead flipped out half of an ancient jade slip.
It was none other than the remnants of the Divine Refining Decree that her master had bestowed upon her.
The 《Divine Refining Decree》 was a Divine Sense type of technique, capable of growing the Divine Sense and thus nourishing the Yuan Shen.
According to Yue Yanru, this technique was unintentionally obtained by her in the early years, and this threefold remnant alone is already superior to all the Divine Sense techniques of the Easy Sect.
From this, one could see how powerful it was.
Xu Chuniang hadn’t been a Foundation Establishment Cultivator for long, and she already had a deep understanding of the importance of Divine Sense, and she decided to learn this Divine Refining Decree first.
With a strong divine sense, no matter what she did, she would be able to do twice as much with half the effort.
She probed out a strand of her divine sense and headed towards the jade slip.
“The so-called divine sense is the God of Sense. There is an old saying: ‘Accumulation of qi gives birth to essence, accumulation of essence gives birth to form, god is born according to form, and god can protect qi.’ That’s why cultivators raise more Yuan Shen to strengthen the Knowledge Spirit. Knowledge of God has birth and death, have come and gone, have cold and warm, have gained and lost, so God is impermanent, often in the six paths.”
This paragraph, speaking of the idea of divine consciousness, Xu Chuniang continued to read on.
“…… I have looked at the ancient and modern methods of raising Yuan and cultivating knowledge, and have come up with a Refining God Decision, which can raise the Yuan God and cultivate the God of Knowledge. In order to grow the Knowledge Spirit, one must first condense their body, constantly condensing and refining it, turning the formless into the tangible, this is the first of its kind.”
Xu Chuniang read this and pondered.
This “Refining Spirit Decree” aimed at the word “refine”.
According to the words of the person who created this technique, one needed to refine the divine sense in various ways, compressing and solidifying it to the extreme, and then the first level would be considered complete.
The more thoroughly the Divine Consciousness is quenched, the more successful the Divine Refining will be.
For how to quench the divine sense, he listed several methods to choose from.
For example, drawing in the power of the stars to refine it, searing it with the fire of the Realm Source, cleansing it with the Heavenly One Heavy Water, refining it with the Primordial Magnet, and so on.
If one was unable to invoke the power of the stars, and did not have various treasures such as the Fire of Boundary Source, one could only use some conventional methods to slowly condense it.
The book mentioned a stupid way, can choose a ten thousand feet waterfall, under the waterfall hammering divine sense.
Although the effect is not as good as the methods mentioned earlier, but persistent persistence, or a miraculous effect.
Xu Chuniang put down the jade slip and shook her head in a rather speechless manner.
Not to mention whether this waterfall refining method was effective or not, just wanting to find a ten thousand foot waterfall that met the conditions, he didn’t even know where to look.
She did know where to find a hundred-foot waterfall, but it was conceivable that its hammering effect would definitely be greatly reduced.
As for the star power and the Realm Source Fire, she didn’t give it much thought at all.
Xu Chuniang was about to put the jade slip away when she suddenly remembered something and her complexion moved slightly.
The Fire of Boundary Origin, she didn’t have it, but she did have the Heavenly Flame.
Although the state of the Heavenly Flame wasn’t quite normal, eventually becoming a large gray pillar after fusing with the rocks, it couldn’t be otherwise, this was the Heavenly Flame.
Xu Chuniang pondered, her cultivation had already made a breakthrough, I wonder if she could continue to use the quenching method to extract the essence of the Heavenly Flame?
With a thought, she directly entered the Walnut World.
When she was in the Qi Practicing Stage, she had used brute force to put the large gray pillar into her storage ring, and after that, she had tried several times, but was simply unable to remove it.
Now that she had divine sense, it was possible to give it a try. Xu Chuniang’s divine sense came out in unison, wrapping all of it towards the large gray pillar in the storage ring, barely able to cover the surface of the pillar.
The moment her divine sense wrapped it completely, a large gray pillar that was three zhang in height and about one zhang in diameter appeared out of nowhere in the Walnut World, pressing down on the surrounding ground and sinking it quite a bit.
Xu Chuniang lightly breathed a sigh of relief and cast several Spirit Rain Arts in a row, heading towards the large gray pillar.
However, the Spirit Rain poured on it and flowed down its surface again, and the large pillar didn’t change half a bit, apparently ineffective.
Xu Chuniang wasn’t too surprised by this result, although her cultivation level had risen, as far as the Spirit Rain Technique itself was concerned, there wasn’t any essential change.
She pondered slightly and left the Walnut World.
Perhaps she could check out the hidden scriptures to see if there were any records related to the Heavenly Flame.
It would be great if she could find a solution to this large gray pillar, turn the Heavenly Flame into her own and then use it to calcify her divine sense.
Although she was able to force some of the Heavenly Flame Essence out of her body, there was no need to do so as using a little would mean less.
It just so happened that the Scripture Pavilion was on the main peak, and there was nothing else to do at the moment, so Xu Chuniang simply retired from her room and headed directly towards the Scripture Pavilion.
The scripture pavilion, with the transmission pavilion in general, is a clan’s heritage is located.
It was only the former that housed all sorts of texts related to the cultivation world, while the latter was a place that specialized in placing merit laws.
The Scripture Pavilion consisted of nine floors, the first three floors were open to all inner disciples, the fourth to fifth floors were open to Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and the sixth to seventh floors were open to Jindan Cultivators and True Transmission Disciples.
As for the eighth and ninth floors, only a limited number of people, such as the peak masters of each peak, were qualified to set foot in them.
Other than that, it was not open to anyone.
Although Xu Chuniang was a Jindan disciple, she hadn’t become a true disciple, so she could only access the information on the lower five floors.
If one wanted to go to the higher levels to access the canonical books, one would need to pay the corresponding contribution points.
However, relying on the contribution points, one could only set foot on the first seven floors at most.
After entering the first level, Xu Chuniang showed her disciple token to the Jindan elder guarding the place.
After the Jindan Elder’s divine sense swept around, he opened his eyes and flipped out a blue formation talisman and threw it over.
“This formation talisman allows unimpeded passage below the fifth floor. It is forbidden to clamor within the Scripture Pavilion, not to steal hidden scriptures and bring them out, and even more so, not to damage the formation talisman in the pavilion. If you do any of the above, you will be punished for stealing, and if you do, you will be considered a traitor to the clan.”
Xu Chuniang received the formation talisman, cupped her fists towards the Jindan elder, and walked towards the inside.
She planned to try her luck on the first five floors first, and if she really didn’t find any, she would then go to the sixth and seventh floors to look for them.
She followed the guidelines and went up to the fourth floor, and in a corner, she found the area that specialized in storing genius geomancy related tomes.
However, the number of related books was not small, so if she wanted to go through all of them, she was afraid that it would take a few days.
Since then, Xu Chuniang lived a life of three points and one line.
Every day, she would first go to the practice field to attend classes, and when she was tired, she would return to the practice room to recuperate, and when she had recovered enough energy, she would soak in the hidden scripture cabinet, checking out the books related to the Heavenly Flame.
This kind of day was ten days.
During the ten days, from the beginning, she could only control the simple panning of the flying sword, to now she was able to control its operation freely.
Only the final step was missing from truly flying with a flying sword.
During this period, she had gone through all the Heavenly Flame related tomes below the fifth floor of the Book Depository.
