Chapter 6: Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll

On the other side.

Li Mu naturally didn't know Qin Siwu and Qin Zhixiang's scheming and calculations against him.

After leaving the main hall.

Night had already fallen.

Zi Yuan brought Li Mu to the Outer Peak, first arranging a temporary lodging for him, and gave Li Mu two jade tokens signifying Personal Disciple status of the Outer Peak.

These identity jade tokens are not only low‑grade spiritual artifacts, but also symbols of status!

With these two Personal Disciple identity jade tokens,

Li Mu can exchange each for a Yellow Tier technique or martial art from the Gong Fa Dian, as well as a well‑ventilated, water‑rich compound cave dwelling.

In addition, Zi Yuan also arranged for Outer Peak senior sister Qiu Ning Shui, who, like Li Mu, came from the secular world, to take Li Mu tomorrow to further familiarize him with the Outer Peak environment.

After finishing the briefing, Zi Yuan gave Li Mu a deep look, her beautiful eyes full of expectation.

"Li Mu!"

"I look forward to seeing you again on the Inner Peak!"

She finished speaking.

Zi Yuan stepped forward, her whole form turning into a violet arching rainbow that swept toward the deep mountains.

Even though she had to part briefly from that Inner Peak senior sister!

But Li Mu now had no time to feel sorrow.

Seeing Zi Yuan completely vanish without a trace, Li Mu plunged straight into the room.

He closed the door and summoned the panel.

【Thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing remaining uses: 1】

【Ten‑thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing remaining uses: 1】

"One each of Thousandfold and Ten‑thousandfold, right?"

Li Mu's eyes lit up as he stared at the system panel.

After a brief exploration, Li Mu had managed to figure out how the system works.

The system's tenfold and Hundredfold Heavenly Dao Blessing can double one's gains, triggering quantitative change.

When the Heavenly Dao Blessing rises to Thousandfold and Ten‑thousandfold, it grants a terrifying transformative power that turns decay into wonder!

For example,

Under Ten‑thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing, the system can cause an entry‑level heart method to undergo a qualitative change, thereby identifying it as the Eight‑Nine Profound Technique!

He also recalled that the system had specifically hinted.

Each time he broke a minor barrier, he was rewarded with a Thousandfold Blessing.

Breaking a major barrier grants a Ten‑thousandfold Blessing!

His current Thousandfold and Ten‑thousandfold Blessings were those obtained when he suddenly comprehended the "Eight‑Nine Profound Technique".

It's just that he doesn't know...

What surprise this Ten‑thousandfold Blessing will bring this time?

Thinking of this, Li Mu took out the identity jade token.

He had two of these tokens, perfect for a trial run!

To see what treasure this Ten‑thousandfold Blessing might yield!

"System, I want to use Ten‑thousandfold Blessing once, targeting the identity jade token for identification!"

Li Mu's thoughts shifted.

Soon, the identity jade token in his hand began to emit a continuous dazzling golden light.

【Ding!】

【Successfully identified Ziyang Sect Outer Peak Personal Disciple jade token, triggering Ten‑thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing.】

【Congratulations, host, you have obtained a Divine Artifact: Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll!】

"Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll?"

"Divine Artifact!"

Li Mu's face showed ecstatic joy!

He hadn't expected that a single identity jade token would be recognized by the system as a Divine Artifact!

No wonder it's Ten‑thousandfold Blessing!

Having traversed thirteen years, he certainly knew the rarity of "Divine Artifacts" in the cultivation world.

In the Qian Kun Realm.

Weapons or magical treasures are classified as spirit artifacts, divine artifacts, holy relics, peerless holy relics, and Divine Artifacts!

Each tier is further divided into low‑grade, mid‑grade, supreme, and peerless levels.

But the Personal Disciple identity jade token in Li Mu's hand is merely a low‑grade spirit artifact.

Above peerless holy relics, there exists a treasure forged by heaven and earth themselves: the Divine Artifact!

Divine Artifact!

Its rarity is such that even a slight leak can stir a storm of blood‑rain and foul wind across the Qian Kun Realm.

Countless ancestors, great beings, and ancient monsters would clash over it!

As for the Ziyang Sect sect master?

In the dispute over a Divine Artifact, he doesn't even qualify to sit at the table; getting any closer risks being pulverized by the shockwaves of attacks.

Yet this celestial treasure is now his, unbelievably...

Truly worthy of Ten‑thousandfold Blessing!

So powerful!

Looking at the golden treasure scroll radiating holy brilliance throughout his Sea of Consciousness, Li Mu felt very satisfied.

Satisfied as he was, Li Mu spent a good half‑hour muttering to himself, yet he never figured out the usage and effect of this Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll.

It seemed that this divine artifact, once entered into his Sea of Consciousness, immediately fell into a dead‑lock.

"Could it be that my realm is too low to wield this Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll?"

"It must be so!"

"Which divine artifact doesn't possess the great power to change heaven and earth, overturn the Qian Kun, and reverse the rules?"

"If a Refining Qi Realm cultivator could casually wield it, that would be absurd!"

"Forget it!"

"No more wasting time on this divine artifact; better to cultivate earnestly!"

He thought of this point.

Li Mu shook his head, chuckled, and decided not to grind on it any longer.

He sat cross‑legged and began studying the Eight Nine Xuan Gong.

The Eight Nine Xuan Gong, as the first protective divine skill of the Chan Sect, needs no words to describe its might.

Its name itself hints at the ultimate limit of yin‑yang transformation.

Eight and nine respectively represent the maximum values of yin and yang; their multiplication signifies the utmost transformation.

Yu Ding Zhenren once remarked, "Master the subtlety of Eight Nine Xuan, and you may roam the world as you wish."

The Eight Nine Xuan Gong is not only a physical transformation ability, but also encompasses an understanding of cosmology.

It is a cultivation method where heaven and earth serve as a furnace, the universe as an incarnation, and the body's acupoints as stars.

By continuously lighting the stellar acupoints, one constructs a primordial cosmic incarnation within the body!

Reaching the highest realm means the flesh becomes saintly, the golden body never perishes.

As long as the primordial spirit in the Niwan Palace remains unextinguished, the cultivation body can resurrect indefinitely.

Each level up in the Eight Nine Xuan Gong lights a star; every ten levels unlocks a divine ability!

Li Mu was also unsure what the maximum level of this Eight Nine Xuan Gong was.

He only knew that in his previous life, Erlang Shen Yang Jian's divine abilities numbered between eight thousand and ten thousand.

Thinking of that.

Li Mu then selflessly fully cultivated the Eight Nine Xuan Gong once, and a crisp system chime echoed in his mind!

【Ding!】

【Identified host cultivating Eight Nine Xuan Gong, successfully triggered Tenfold Heavenly Dao Blessing!】

【Congratulations, host! You have obtained Tenfold Harvest!】

"Can the cultivation process also be identified?"

Just as Li Mu was shocked,

A flood of insights surged into Li Mu's Sea of Consciousness like tide.

Amid the intertwining lights and shadows, he seemed to have truly cultivated ten times over.

It appears that even the cultivation process can be recognized by the system and the gains returned multiplicatively!

"Screech…"

Li Mu clenched his fists tightly, his breathing becoming far more rapid than before.

This Heavenly Dao Identification System seemed even more formidable than he imagined!

During the thirteen years since crossing into the Qian Kun Realm.

Li Mu began martial training at six and only barely reached the Sixth Grade Forming Body Realm at thirteen.

His talent in the Qian Kun Realm could only be considered average.

If one truly cultivated step by step, breaking a small bottleneck—or even a large one—would be the goal.

Without the support of massive cultivation resources.

Even advancing from Third Grade Lian Qi Realm to Sixth Grade Lian Qi Realm, breaking a small bottleneck takes at least a year or longer.

As for advancing from Lian Qi Realm to Concentration Realm, breaking a large bottleneck?

With Li Mu's current talent, it wouldn't even take ten years; eight years is not even worth considering.

But now, the situation begins to change!

If every subsequent cultivation could yield tenfold—or even hundredfold—gains under Heavenly Dao Blessing!

How fast would my cultivation speed become then?

If nothing goes wrong!

In five to ten days, one could break a small bottleneck and obtain a Thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing!

After a year or two, one could break a large bottleneck and obtain a Ten Thousandfold Heavenly Dao Blessing!

Even a powerful Ziyang Sect Sect Master, Li Mu estimates that within at most three years, he would surpass the sect master!

Li Mu felt a surge of excitement as he thought.

Then I will, on this basis, stack the Qi‑Blood Pills after Heavenly Dao Blessing!

With quantity doubled and harvest doubled, wouldn't I be ecstatic to death!

Yet amid the joy, Li Mu couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Since my cultivation process can be recognized by the system, why wasn't the battle between me and Qin Zhixiang on Xuan Yue Feng identified then?

Or perhaps…

Qin Zhixiang was just too weak; the system judged it not a battle but a one‑sided beating?

So it didn't trigger the Heavenly Dao Blessing…

Thinking of that, Li Mu couldn't wait and swallowed a Qi‑Blood Pill outright.

He was just about to strike while the iron was hot.

But a new lexical entry floated before his eyes, making Li Mu almost spit out a mouthful of old blood!

【Ding!】

【Identified host consuming a poisonous Qi‑Blood Pill, triggering Tenfold Heavenly Dao Blessing!】

【Congratulations host, obtained Tenfold Harvest!】

"What?"

"This Qi‑Blood Pill is poisonous!"

"And it even damn tenfold!"

"Ah, damn…"

"This really could kill me!"

Li Mu's smile froze on his face.

I knew it, that old Qin Siwu wasn't any kind‑hearted.

He even gave himself a pill?

After all that trouble, this old Qin Siwu was planning to poison himself!

No wonder Senior Sister Zi Yuan said she needed to inspect this Qi‑Blood Pill, the old Qin Siwu reacted so strongly.

Turns out he had something hidden in his heart!

Li Mu now directly sent greetings to all eighteen generations of Qin Siwu's ancestors!

At this moment, he only felt a scorching pain in his dantian.

It was as if what he just swallowed wasn't a pill, but a mouthful of lava‑like, excruciating pain!

But just as Li Mu was being tormented by the poison pill to the brink of ecstasy and death.

In his Sea of Knowledge, the Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll, which had been quiet, suddenly underwent a change.

He saw the Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll slowly unfurl, revealing a blank celestial book!

Then, three golden characters gradually appeared on the celestial book.

"Qin Siwu!"

As the name appeared on the Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll, Li Mu immediately felt the situation had changed.

The fiery burning in his stomach receded like a tide at that moment, replaced by an indescribable pleasantness surging from his dantian!

The effect of the Qi‑Blood Pill, now amplified tenfold by the Heavenly Dao Blessing, fed back onto Li Mu himself.

In an instant, the smile returned to Li Mu's face.

Amidst the surprise.

Li Mu then discovered another fact: on the Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll, the once golden three characters of Qin Siwu had now become somewhat dim.

Li Mu: "???"

Looking at Qin Siwu's name, Li Mu couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

"Could it be…"

Li Mu suddenly thought of something.

But he was somewhat uncertain.

To verify his speculation, Li Mu this time poured ten Poison Pills from the Jade Bottle at once.

Then he tilted his head back and swallowed them outright.

【Ding!】

【Identified host consuming ten poisonous Qi‑Blood Pills, triggering Tenfold Heavenly Dao Blessing!】

【Congratulations host, obtained Tenfold Harvest!】

As the pills entered his stomach, a burning sensation even stronger than before assaulted him!

Then…

And then there was nothing else!

This time the burning sensation faded even faster than before; his front foot just felt it, and the back foot's feeling vanished.

Did I just—damn, nothing at all?

Instead, on the Heavenly Dao Treasure Scroll, the three characters of Qin Siwu grew ever dimmer.
