Chapter 151 Earthly Fiend 72 Techniques
Previously, I referred to them as juniors; now I'll call them fellow Daoists.
Li Jieqing thought to himself that cultivators were truly flexible and adaptable; even though they hated him to death, they could still put on a smiling face.
Such deep affection is truly hard to imagine, as it was once the aloof and elegant Fairy of Taipingfang.
As for the fact that Fairy Shecai used this expression to invite him on a treasure hunt—Li Jieqing hadn't believed in such things for decades.
"Shecai, are you really that reluctant to part with this demon?!"
Li Jieqing pointed his sword forward, and the Qingshui Sword that had pierced the transformed demon slashed to the side.
The three-foot-long toad-skin snake body, transformed from the venomous snake spirit, was slashed open, and the venomous spirit spilled out, its substance as viscous as blood.
Li Jieqing truly couldn't understand why Fairy Shecai would lower herself to such an extent for the sake of a demon.
"Stop! Cutting it open won't do you any good!"
The Fairy of Luxurious Colors, reluctant to part with the murderous aura she had just obtained, quickly said, "Fellow Daoist! Although you have broken through, you are despised by the Seven True Ones. How can you maintain this position for long? I possess the Qi-refining method of the 'Blood Heart Freedom Secret Record,' and naturally, I also know the whereabouts of the Foundation Establishment method. It lies where the Heavenly Star Grass grows at the bottom of the sea. If you take the key there, you will naturally find the cultivation method for yourself!"
"That's the ruins of the Blood Heart Sect... How can you prove it?"
Li Jieqing finally paused his movements slightly.
During his Qi Refining stage, he focused solely on preparing for Foundation Establishment, but obtaining the cultivation techniques after Foundation Establishment proved to be a difficult task.
The sights and sounds I witnessed that day when I retrieved the Star Grass flashed through my mind.
Regardless of what Fairy Shecai's purpose was, Li Jieqing thought to himself that if that place really was the Blood Heart Sect's territory, it would be worth exploring again.
The Soul-Devouring Demon in the deep sea was quite to his liking.
If you've eaten part of it, you have to spit it out.
"Fellow Daoist, you truly have no use for this malevolent energy!"
Also because of the murderous aura in her hand, Fairy Shecai disregarded her control over Li Jieqing, a wild Foundation Establishment cultivator, and revealed the secrets of the Foundation Establishment path.
There are seventy-two kinds of malevolent energy in the world, each with its own category. By combining and refining them, one can achieve the foundational supernatural powers.
Supernatural powers can be divided into six categories: spirit and soul, life and destiny, the five elements, transformation, false path, and stealing heavenly secrets.
The foundation-building techniques correspond one by one to these six types of malevolent supernatural powers.
The Ruyi Sect practices the Five Elements and cultivates the Five Elements supernatural powers.
The Blood Heart Sect's cultivation method is a method of life and death, and it cultivates supernatural powers of life and death, which is different from the snake miasma and poisonous evil.
What is life?
Sexuality encompasses thoughts, spirit, intuition, and psychology.
Life encompasses the entire body, the primordial energy, and the essence of physiology.
Sexuality cannot exist without life, and life cannot exist without sexuality.
Cultivating only one's nature without cultivating one's destiny will ultimately lead to nothing. Cultivating only one's destiny without cultivating one's nature is like a castle in the air, which will collapse at the slightest touch.
The dual cultivation of sexual energy and physical energy can also be summarized as the unity of essence, energy, and spirit, which is the foundation of cultivation.
Those who specialize in cultivating the methods of life and nature, and who refine the supernatural powers of life and nature, achieve a high degree of unity of essence, energy, and spirit. They do not rely on external things, but rely entirely on the physical body to communicate with the divine. Furthermore, they use a state of mind that is clear and free from desires to control the physical body, which can make all evils repel them and prevent all laws from invading them.
"Fellow Daoist Shecai... According to you, there are seventy-two kinds of malevolent energy in the world, which, when combined with the cultivation techniques of various sects, can create countless supernatural powers. Why do you specifically choose this particular demonic malevolent energy?"
Li Jieqing did not immediately believe what Fairy Shecai said. Instead, he instantly found a discrepancy and coldly snorted, "Since you're advising me, why hide it? How can I believe you?"
The sword points relentlessly, its power surging.
Amidst the miasma spreading across Blood Bamboo Island, the magical powers of the two schools of thought intertwined and shone brightly.
Surrounded by the venomous snakes, Li Jieqing remained unyielding, resulting in a stalemate with Fairy Shecai.
Originally, he wanted this demonic creature simply because he couldn't afford to lose money and wanted to take everything he could with him.
However, the Fairy of Luxurious Colors disregarded even his enemy and tried to forcibly seize the demon, which made people take notice.
Moreover, if there are only seventy-two types of malevolent energy in the world, how can one explain the fact that there is no corresponding blood malevolent energy in his body?
Li Jieqing was an unorthodox Foundation Establishment cultivator. He practiced a Qi Refining technique from a defunct sect and stole the treasures left by Fairy Shecai in the Wanbao Pavilion, which allowed him to reach the Foundation Establishment realm.
Reaching the Foundation Establishment stage was the limit, and Li Jieqing had no idea how to proceed with cultivation beyond that.
With Fairy Shecai by his side, and even more reluctant to part with the snake miasma than he was, he had no choice but to force her, hoping she would reveal some real treasures.
"Fellow Daoist, are you familiar with the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Techniques?"
The Fairy of Luxurious Colors uttered these words with a complex tone.
A booming sound echoed outside the Serpent Sea, seemingly caused by the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Techniques.
There are not seventy-two types of evil energy, but a total of seventy-two categories, each corresponding to one of the seventy-two earthly evil arts.
Li Jieqing seized Wanbaoge and obtained a vast collection of books, but they were nothing more than complicated and fabricated accounts.
A true word is passed on, and a thousand volumes of books are falsely passed on.
If it weren't for the fact that Fairy Shecai had caused too much trouble in the Serpent Sea and was worried about the reaction from the Immortal City, and that she really needed to gain Li Jieqing's trust and invite him to take out the key, she really wouldn't have wanted to reveal it so easily.
"Fellow Daoist Bloodhand! You possess countless malevolent powers... but only by mastering one of the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Techniques can one aspire to the Golden Core stage!"
……
……
Within the Seven Immortal Cities.
The Immortal City's grand formation collapsed recently, wasting countless array patterns and spiritual materials, causing Qi Zhen to lose all his resources.
Therefore, eight out of ten people in the city felt that Qi Zhen would not let the matter rest and that a major conflict was inevitable.
But to everyone's surprise, for months on end, Qi Zhen only recruited people to repair the great formation. Apart from that, the inner city was peaceful and quiet, and people were cautious in their words and actions.
The more this is the case.
It is precisely this that makes some people tremble with fear.
It should be noted that when the Seven Immortals descended upon Xiaoxin Island together, the White Tiger Demonic Calamity was quelled in an instant, and the Blood Hand Demon fled, their momentum was truly magnificent.
Now that the great formation has collapsed, and it's clear that they've been secretly plotted against and lost face, how could Qi Zhen possibly swallow her anger?
The peace we enjoy now is but a fleeting moment of silence before the world collapses.
Inner city area.
The True Man of Treasure City, one of the Seven True Men of the Upper Sect, did not seclude himself for cultivation. Instead, he relied on the formation to patrol the Immortal City day after day.
The matter of the magic array is of paramount importance. Not to mention that it is the foundation of the Immortal City, just the fact that someone deliberately destroyed the magic array that day makes it even more important to repair the magic array as soon as possible, monitor Xiaoxin Island, and make the thieves hiding in the shadows have nowhere to hide.
"In about a month, the array's functions will be able to restart."
Master Baocheng held a array plate in his hand, probed it with his divine sense, connected with the great array, and observed it in great detail. He then fiddled with and lit up a corner of the array pattern effect, and nodded in satisfaction.
The Seven Immortals are now each performing their duties, and he is in charge of overseeing the repair and monitoring of the great formation.
Master Baocheng looked again at a spot in the center of the inner city, feeling slightly displeased.
Although the person who broke into the central core of the great formation that day and committed massacres and poisoning is dead, there are many suspects as to how that person found the central core of the great formation and how he broke into it as if it were empty.
Regardless of right or wrong, the Seven Immortals arrested and punished many people, with Master Baowu in charge, determined to get to the bottom of the matter by any means necessary.
Half of them were actually disciples of Qi Zhen himself.
