Chapter 273: Analyzing the Original True Explanation with orthodox cultivation (Seeking monthly votes!)

After saying this, Shi Hao took out another bone from his bag. Its surface was glowing white and lustrous, like a palm-sized piece of mutton-fat jade, indescribably crystalline, clean, and translucent.

Although it was only palm-sized, it was densely packed with symbols; one couldn't tell how many had been carved onto it. Vaguely, it seemed as if the chanting of myriad gods and demons was emanating from it, shaking one's heart and blood.

This was shocking; it was clearly just a bone, yet it was this astonishing the moment it was revealed.

"Brother Hao, you are so good to me!"

Wu Xian was deeply moved. When he looked at this precious bone, his eyes turned green.

Original True Explanation!

This was the most mysterious cultivation method in the Perfect World. Although it lacked specific cultivation methods and combat techniques, the runes on it pointed directly to the mysteries of the Great Dao's origin.

Even if what was before him was only the most basic upper volume, it was something that could be encountered but not sought, capable of laying an supreme foundation. Only the very top handful of people could know its contents.

And now, such a treasure had actually fallen into his hands. Even with his mysterious space cheat, Wu Xian couldn't hide the throbbing in his heart.

"Brother Xian, come back to Shi Village with me."

At this moment, Shi Hao proposed, then as if remembering something, scratched his head and said: "But not now. I entered the Great Wilderness this time for my own tempering. This is a test set by Willow God for me—to fight against prehistoric fierce beasts, to hone myself in dangerous places. Only then can I verify what I've learned and grow quickly."

"By the way, Willow God is the sacrificial spirit of Shi Village. It is very mysterious and powerful. When we return to Shi Village, I will introduce you."

"Is that so? That would be great."

Wu Xian also smiled happily, his eyes curving into crescents: "Speaking of trials, I can help with that too. I've passed through many dangerous places along the way, and there are many powerful fierce beasts inside. I can take you there to hone yourself; it can save you from taking many detours."

"There's such a thing! I see, Brother Xian, you must have gone through this tempering to become so powerful!"

Shi Hao was very moved, feeling that he had met Wu Xian too late. He completely forgot about the beating he had received not long ago.

"Brother Xian, thank you, you are so good to me!"

"It's what brothers are for."

Wu Xian patted his chest, but in his heart, he had already started recalling the dangerous places he had passed, pondering which ones were more suitable for Shi Hao, while calculating how to add "a little bit" of intensity to accelerate his growth.

Clearly, the petty-minded person hadn't fully vented his anger yet and was preparing to use "tempering" as an excuse to continue bullying the honest person.

Shamefully, Shi Hao still had to thank him for it!

Just like that, in the following days, Wu Xian began to take Shi Hao on a journey of exploration through the Great Wilderness, and as promised, he taught him multiple Eight Extraordinary Techniques, including the Dual-Hand Technique.

As mentioned before, because they were "techniques," the Eight Extraordinary Techniques were not suppressed in the Perfect World; on the contrary, they were amplified due to the increase in the world's scale. Whether it was the Heaven-Connecting Talisman's ability to communicate with heaven and earth or the Feng Hou Qi Men's mastery of the Dao of Change, it was the same.

But unexpectedly, compared to the few with the highest intent, the one Shi Hao was most interested in among the Eight Extraordinary Techniques was actually the Six-Storey Immortal Thief. He picked it up the fastest and mastered its essence before long.

The following events didn't need much elaboration; anyway, it was eating wherever they went. Relying on the Six-Storey Immortal Thief's ability, Shi Hao perfectly consumed the blood essence of those fierce birds and exotic beasts, turning it into massive energy to nourish his flesh, making his arm strength, which had been stuck in a bottleneck, loosen up again, surpassing the extreme earlier than in the original work.

Not only that, he even began to autonomously improve the operation method of the Six-Storey Immortal Thief, making it more suitable for the Great Dao laws of the Perfect World, vaguely showing a trend of surpassing its original level.

"If it weren't for the big shot helping in secret, the talent of the Huang Heavenly Emperor would indeed be earth-shattering. No wonder he was always considered the strongest of the Three Heavenly Emperors before becoming above the Sacrificial Dao."

Wu Xian sighed in his heart, then buried his head in studying the precious bone engraved with the Original True Explanation in his hand.

The characters on the clean white bone were densely packed, recounting the origin of runes, explaining the mysteries of the original precious bone, and annotating the strengths and weaknesses of ancient fierce beasts and divine birds.

This bone book started from the most primitive point, explaining the mysteries of heaven and earth, involving too much, all-encompassing. The only pity was that it wasn't complete.

In the original work, this was a supreme classic created by the Corpse Immortal Emperor, divided into three volumes.

The upper volume, "Divine Guidance," could guide practitioners to lay an unparalleled foundation.

The middle volume, "Transcendence," when the cultivation realm reached a certain level, one could potentially create a new cultivation system through this volume.

The lower volume, "Ultimate," was also the most mysterious volume. The original work didn't describe its effects specifically. It was said that as long as one obtained it, there was hope of breaking through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor, but Shi Hao was already at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm when he obtained it, so it could only be used for reference.

And now, what Wu Xian held was the upper volume, "Divine Guidance," but it was still just a fragment, brought from the higher realm by Willow God. The remaining fragments were also in the lower realm. Once fused, it would become the Myriad Spirit Map, possessing incredible power.

However, even if it was only a part of the fragments, it was extremely precious, benefiting Wu Xian greatly and making him intoxicated.

He was not the young Shi Hao; his foundation was too deep, and he understood many cultivation systems of various worlds. His realm and knowledge were broader than many Venerables, so he didn't experience vomiting blood; at most, he felt dizzy, and as long as he closed his eyes to rest for a while, he would continue reading.

Soon, he saw many mysteries about cultivation in the Original True Explanation and discovered that his Move Blood Realm still had many shortcomings in details, so he began to "add a little bit" of supplementation, causing many magical visions.

Terrifying blood energy rose like wolf smoke, reaching a thousand zhang high, turning into phantoms of dragons, phoenixes, true roars, Golden-Winged Great Pengs, and many other ancient divine beasts in mid-air, making the creatures within a hundred miles tremble, thinking that a beast god had descended, and they hurriedly prostrated themselves in worship.

Beside him, Shi Hao and the Shi Clan elder who saw this scene were both dumbfounded. The latter was better, after all, he had seen a lot during this time and finally had some immunity, but Shi Hao was seeing the tip of the iceberg of Wu Xian's strength for the first time and received a huge shock.

"So Brother Xian is this powerful..."

Shi Hao muttered to himself, then felt a bit inferior.

He thought he had reached the extreme of the Move Blood Realm and was already very powerful among his peers, but he didn't expect to meet Wu Xian, who was even more powerful than himself, just after leaving the Great Wilderness. And listening to the previous statement, he had only been cultivating for a little over a month.

By comparison, he was really too weak, unable to even catch up to a corner of his younger brother's clothes.

"No! I am the older brother, I should protect Brother Xian. How can I be left behind so much? I must cultivate even harder!"

On the other side, Wu Xian didn't know what Shi Hao was thinking, just focused on studying the runes on the Original True Explanation, but found that the more he understood, the more things he didn't understand increased, as if the mysteries in these runes were endless, and no matter how he studied, it was difficult to comprehend them.

"Not enough! Still not enough!"

Wu Xian was a bit obsessed, but knew that continuing like this wouldn't work. A thought that had arisen not long ago suddenly appeared in his mind, so he put down his study of the Original True Explanation and began to sleep day and night.

Finally, one morning, he woke up from his sleep, his eyes radiant, as if he was in a very good mood.

Immediately after, he took out the Original True Explanation again, but didn't rush to look at the runes on it. Instead, a complex and unique formula appeared in his mind to analyze these runes.

"Orthodox cultivation's rune analysis method, please don't let me down..."
