Chapter 945: Cultivation Method

"What? Qingyanke has such great audacity!?"

Jiuzhen Xianniang was both shocked and angry, thinking to herself: 'Qingyanke is one of the Five Direction Envoys of the Xuantian Sect, yet he is merely at the Golden Core stage. If not for my Master being in seclusion, had he dared to run wild like this, I would have crushed him with a single finger... Kidnapping people outside the gates of my Luofu Mountain—does being of the Orthodox Xuan Sect make one so remarkable?'

After her anger subsided, she reacted and called out: "How did Emei get involved with the Xuantian Sect?"

The disciple who had run over gave a bitter smile: "This disciple did not hear clearly either; it seems to be a matter concerning the Flower God Mansion..."

"Ahem..."

Hearing this, Aaron could not help but cough.

"Does my disciple have something to say?"

Although he tried his best to take a high-level view, without truly cultivating to that realm, no one knew if there would be problems when the time came.

Alas... the person outside really could not be opened.

"Flower God Mansion?"

He currently didn't even have enough time to comprehend cultivation methods and practice swordsmanship!

Furthermore, after finishing his sorting today, the first thing he planned to do after leaving seclusion was to go to the Gongfa Pavilion to read.

As it turned out, Fang Xiaolong had picked and chosen, and ultimately selected a "Snake Jiao Hand of No-Form"!

This spell is touted as an immortal martial art, but in reality, it can only be cultivated to the Condensing Evil Realm at most!

Aaron naturally looked first at Daoism that could increase his cultivation power.

"When the time comes, with a sword in hand, I will also be a Side Door Sword Immortal! Just thinking about it makes me a little excited!"

At this moment, he had not only comprehended the "Hunyuan Profound Light Qi" thoroughly but had also pushed through the old to bring forth the new.

Aaron had absolutely no intention of showing off his personality.

After a pause, his expression relaxed slightly: "In that case, it is only a matter between Emei, the Xuantian Sect, and the Flower God Mansion; it has nothing to do with our Luofu Mountain. I will send a Letter Talisman to explain a word to Baimei at Emei, and that will be that..."

He paused, then added: "You are now an Inner Sect Disciple of our sect. Aside from the Five Great Primordial Spirit True Inheritances, all other methods are taught... If you truly wish to aim for a True Transmission, then you might as well cultivate 'Hunyuan Profound Light Qi' and the 'Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula'..."

"Greetings, Senior Brother!"

The Hunyuan Profound Light Qi was simplified by the Luofu Ancestor from the Meta-Magnetic Profound Light. If an Inner Sect Disciple cultivates this method and gains the Master's favor, they can plead with the Luofu Ancestor to be sealed within the Yuanci Ore Eye for a hundred years. This allows them to find another path, transforming their own profound light into Meta-Magnetic Profound Light, qualifying them to compete for the position of True Disciple.

It is just that there is no method for refining swords!

He thought for a moment, then shamelessly asked another question: "Many thanks to Master for bestowing the sword formula, but without a Flying Sword, I cannot display its power. I wonder if Master has an immortal Flying Sword to bestow?"

A rough scan left him slightly disappointed.

Well, after all, Aaron still had his previous habits as a Loose Cultivator; the instinct to survive was still there.

"The Hunyuan Dharma Power cultivated from the Hunyuan Profound Light Qi, even if one smelts numerous Sha Qi and Gang Qi later on... can only reach the fifth grade at most! Therefore, the Dry Yang True Qi can be smoothly converted without any obstruction!"

The Post-Heaven and Innate realms are just ordinary mortal martial arts.

Once refined into one's own True Qi, every strike is accompanied by a snake shadow; it is spiritually sensitive and transformative, capable of striking suddenly to injure others.

Jiuzhen Xianniang thought for a moment and said: "I remember now, Qingyanke seems to have a few illegitimate daughters raised in the Flower God Mansion. Could it be such a coincidence?"

Turtle Immortal Hall.

Aaron paid his respects to the person who had just come to report. Mo Xitan appeared to be a scholar in green robes, holding a folding fan, looking quite dashing and romantic, but his eyes carried the weariness of one who had experienced the ways of the world, likely having lived for many years.

"Not going!"

Among mortal Martial Artists, it is naturally invincible.

In the current Luofu Mountain, no one would dare to secretly harm an Inner Sect Disciple. If one were an Outer Sect Disciple, it would be a bit less safe—after all, there are simply too many! One might not even be able to remember them all!

As for him?

He is only an Innate ant; even if he wanted to save them, he would be powerless to do so. Thus, there is not much responsibility, and he does not fear being held accountable.

Aaron was just calculating when he suddenly heard a voice from outside the hall: "Yu, Yu!"

Jiuzhen Xianniang burst into laughter and scolded: "You greedy ghost, the Taiyi Meta-Magnetic Divine Light and the Dutian Sword Scripture are both ranked among our sect's Five Great True Inheritances. If you want to learn them, wait until you become a True Disciple..."

Jiuzhen Xianniang used a streak of profound light to send this disciple far away before whispering a scolding: "A six-refinement immortal Flying Sword—even I only have one, and it cost I don't know how much heart's blood? And you still want one? Wait until I pass away... Bah! What am I saying?"

And upon reaching the Condensing Evil Realm, one only gets a single incantation to refine the 'Boneless Snake Sha'!

This type of Sha Qi is easy to find; as long as one finds a snake den, it is likely to be generated in the place where the snakes are buried.

"None!"

But upon hearing Fang Xiaolong say that several families wanted to introduce their daughters, nieces, and sisters to him, he changed his tune: "It might be worth a look... but I will not leave the mountain gate."

He thought secretly, then heard Jiuzhen Xianniang laugh: "This is your Senior Brother, Mo Xitan... I haven't taken many disciples in my life, and several have either failed to ascend to Profound Light and passed away when their lifespan ended, or died while fighting others or exploring mysteries. Now, only three are still alive. Counting you, that makes exactly four disciples... Great Senior Brother Xuanchenzi, Second Senior Sister Wu Mei, and Third Senior Brother is Mo Xitan!"

Aaron, after all, had deep insight and saw the flaws of this cultivation method at a glance.

'This is actually not the path of a superior immortal method; the foundation is insufficient... Therefore, to become a True Disciple, one must fill the mine pit and spend a hundred years of hard work, tempering and transforming one's own True Qi and Dharma Power bit by bit, only then having hope of forming a Golden Core!'

Furthermore, it is very convenient; it doesn't matter what kind of Gang or Sha Qi it is, all can be refined into the True Qi and merged into one body, known as Hunyuan Sha Qi or Hunyuan Gang Qi... The more Sha Qi and Gang Qi refined, the stronger the cultivation power!

Jiuzhen Xianniang recommending it this way was naturally because she cherished this disciple and wanted to lead him onto the right path.

Aaron waved his hand; they were all people who would be a handful of dirt in a thousand years, what was there to see?

It was just that he was not very promising; he was neither valued by Jiuzhen Xianniang nor did he have any real affinity for immortality.

However, Aaron was also a senior master; he ate all the sugar-coated shells and threw the shells back, without making a single useful promise, leaving those families very disappointed...

"Not only that, I have also begun to enter the door of the 'Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula'..."

What's more... he was the Ancestor of the Fang Family himself! How much face did Fang Xiaolong have to make him give instructions every day?

Aaron gave a cold smile.

'Is it like the feeling of that great change about to come when I was in Great Gan?'

As an Inner Sect Disciple, one can read all the Daoism of the Outer Sect Disciples, as well as many miscellaneous books of the Immortal Cultivation World.

'This Hunyuan Profound Light Qi only reaches the Profound Light realm at most, and it is also a cheap method; it cannot generate Gang or Sha Qi by itself!'

'So he is also an improper person.'

Just looking at how he didn't step out of the palace once after obtaining the cultivation method, one could see his Dao heart, but there was indeed no need to remind Fang Xiaolong.

Regarding this, Aaron still held quite high expectations.

Although the Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula had nothing to do with the Five Great Primordial Spirit True Inheritances, it was still an extremely formidable Side Door swordsmanship, and many Inner Sect Disciples chose to study it.

Inside the hall, Aaron sat cross-legged on a bright yellow cushion and calculated slightly: "But this is nothing... After my adjustments, incorporating the Hunyuan Art improved by the Great Gan world's original body, as long as I refine one strand of Five Elements-attributed Sha Qi and Gang Qi, I can directly cultivate the Meta-Magnetic Profound Light at the Mysterious Light Realm!"

"However, the origin is hard to explain, so I can suppress it first, then apply to fill the mine pit as a human pillar... What takes others a hundred years, I can break through in ten, or even one year, possessing supreme talent, and be ranked among the True Disciples! After being bestowed, I can obtain the Golden Core of the Taiyi Meta-Magnetic Divine Light, and even the method of the Primordial Spirit!"

This Forbidden Technique was a restriction inherent to the Turtle Immortal Hall; it was not particularly outstanding, and one could open it by possessing Innate True Qi and knowing a few incantations.

"Cousin, why not go... The Xie Family brothers specifically set up a banquet, laying out one hundred and eight rare delicacies, which it is said even the Emperor might not be able to eat, plus the fine wine brewed by Senior Sister Bi..."

Even if one offered a hint, the other party might not necessarily appreciate it.

Jiuzhen Xianniang supported her forehead with her hand and flicked her sleeve; a burst of Mysterious Light flashed, and Mo Xitan was thrown somewhere unknown. She swept her phoenix eyes, looked at Aaron, and asked the previous question again: "What Daoism do you want to learn?"

Aaron complained inwardly and nodded repeatedly.

When Mo Xitan finished speaking, he realized his Master was still nearby and hurriedly changed his words.

Jiuzhen Xianniang said nothing more, suddenly took a step forward, and arrived in front of Aaron.

If the other party could not achieve Mysterious Light within a hundred years, then after a hundred years, this person would no longer exist...

But within the Immortal Sect, heh...

As the door opened, a young man ran in, looking around the Turtle Immortal Hall, muttering: "Master is truly biased; such a large hall, yet she won't bestow one upon me, and even drove me to live with the Outer Sect Disciples..."

But as the saying goes, this world is different from Great Gan after all.

Jiuzhen Xianniang asked a question.

He sighed, stood up from the cushion, walked to the outer hall, and casually removed the Forbidden Technique.

As for the Gang Sha Qi of the Five Elements? The Small Five Elements Profound Gang is just that!

Therefore, Aaron only needed to find a random excuse of visiting relatives, return to Shushan Prefecture to retrieve his Five Viscera and Six Bowels Gu, and he could break into the Mysterious Light Realm in an instant!

Along the way, he would also refine an extra strand of Six Ren Strange Gang! His cultivation would be even more profound.

Yet Aaron inexplicably felt that things would not be so simple!

'Why does it have a somewhat familiar scent?'

This hall was simple and elegant, located on the mountainside of Jiuzhen Peak, with a clear lake in front of the hall and a stone tablet standing beside it, engraved with the two characters 'Ningcui'.

With Jiuzhen Xianniang's influence, the disciples of the Gongfa Pavilion really did let Fang Xiaolong choose whatever he wanted, aside from the various techniques of the Inner Sect.

That day, when Aaron was sent here by a ray of Mysterious Light from Jiuzhen Xianniang, he knew his Master had gifted this hall to him, so he immediately began to practice without any false modesty.

In his mind, two sets of formulas suddenly appeared, which were precisely the 'Hunyuan Profound Light Qi' and the 'Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula'!

The 'Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula' was a technique for combat and belonged to the Side Door.

Right then, he followed Fang Xiaolong to attend a banquet, enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

With Aaron's cautious nature, he would certainly want to obtain the local advanced techniques to study them before breaking through.

Although Aaron could now also slightly deduce the method for Five Elements Golden Core formation.

Aaron smiled slightly and said.

This person was naturally Fang Xiaolong.

Aaron rolled his eyes.

"This disciple will listen to Master."

'Just for that "old woman" remark, if it were me, I wouldn't bother with you either...'

As for the 'Mayfly Nine Transformations Sword Formula', it was naturally more profound than the Spirit Snake Sword Technique and could be studied in detail.

Aaron thought for a moment, and although he felt a bit greedy, he still asked: "This disciple does not know what Daoism our sect has, but when I arrived, I heard Junior Brother Yang Xumi say that the Meta-Magnetic Profound Light of our Luofu Mountain is quite miraculous, and I yearn for it. If that is not possible, I am quite envious of those Sword Immortals and Sword Heroes in Emei, and I would also like to learn a Sword Formula!"

"Hello, Junior Brother. It's a pity that I haven't refined any treasures on hand... I can't give you any welcoming gift. How about another day, we go to the secular world to drink and... have some fun together?"

"That would be excellent."

Fang Xiaolong's smile was somewhat stiff; he had already given his word!

"It is merely a matter of gluttony..."

Although he was an Outer Sect Disciple, he was, after all, a named disciple of a Golden Core Grandmaster, and he had a cousin who was an Inner Sect Disciple. Such a relationship was already strong enough, and there were plenty of Luofu disciples in the Outer Sect willing to flatter him. He was successful wherever he went, truly imposing, and somewhat carried away.

"I won't meet them..."

In any case, in Aaron's view, even if Fang Xiaolong only practiced the "Hundred Yang Illustrated Record", it would still be better than this nonsense Snake Jiao Hand!

"Xiaolong, you must work hard. Perhaps one day, when Master is in a good mood, she might just bestow it upon you."

These were all his resources, especially suitable for converting the techniques of Great Gan into those of this world!

For Aaron, whether Fang Xiaolong was grateful to him or hated him, it did not matter.

Originally, as an Outer Sect Disciple, one could choose one technique to practice.

"But I have a true immortal-grade Flying Sword refined with Six Refinements—Bi Shui!"

On the way back, Fang Xiaolong continued to chatter: "Today was truly a feast... I didn't expect there to be more excitement to watch. The matter of Yang Xumi last time has had a result; Emei is actually going to have a sword duel with the Profound Heaven Sect... The location is chosen at the Flower God Mansion. Many fellow disciples are going to watch this excitement. Are you going, Senior Brother?"

Poor Fang Xiaolong, he was no longer regarded as a personal disciple by Jiuzhen Xianniang.

Aaron only felt a rich fragrance rush to his nose, and his brow felt cool, touched by a slender jade finger.

And the Hunyuan Profound Light Qi, in the Condensing Sha and Outer Gang realms, still required refining the Gang Sha Qi from the outside world.

Not listening to the words of the elderly leads to suffering; it is quite reasonable, after all, he is an "elderly person" himself.

Fang Xiaolong nodded repeatedly: "Exactly so... By the way, Yu, I have also made many friends in the Outer Sect. Would you like to meet them?"

Aaron found it hard to hide it and directly told him about Yang Xumi's failure to save him.

Historically, truly profound techniques all emphasize the internal generation of Gang Sha Qi; such a fusion of energy, natural and perfect, is the best.

This was indeed Jiuzhen Xianniang being biased toward her disciple.

Several months later.

"In this realm, cultivators consider the Sword Immortal to be supreme, yet there are many Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters in the sect who, despite practicing top-tier Swordsmanship, suffer from the lack of a good Flying Sword, unable to unleash even one-tenth of their Swordsmanship's full power!"

Aaron looked at Fang Xiaolong and shook his head to himself.

Without cultivating to the Mysterious Light, one's lifespan remains that of a mortal; others are already running out of time to cultivate, yet this kid... he is likely beyond saving!!
