Chapter 340: The Ancient Immortal's Cultivation Method

Actually, it wasn't Lu Yang's incompetence; it was just that writing a cultivation method with Foundation Establishment stage cultivation was too difficult. Lacking experience and knowledge, how could one write a cultivation method?

Not to mention Lu Yang couldn't do it himself, even the Decayed Fairy couldn't do it.

Walking on the road to the Scripture Library, Lu Yang chatted: "Immortal, what cultivation method did you practice back then?"

"'Mysterious Pole Technique', a quite ordinary cultivation method, but it was quite suitable for me at the time. I relied on this cultivation method to reach the Tribulation Transcendence stage, and then I discovered that this cultivation method had a limit and couldn't become an immortal. So I had an epiphany, realized the 'Decayed Immortal Technique', changed my path, replaced the cultivation method, and attained the Dao to become an immortal."

"When you reach the Tribulation Transcendence stage, you will find that the limit of any cultivation method is the Tribulation Transcendence stage. After all, the limit of living beings is the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Becoming an immortal is an act against heaven. Only by breaking the limit can one become an immortal. So previous cultivation methods are unusable. If you want to attain the Dao and become an immortal, you can only customize a cultivation method according to your own insights and your own situation."

"I am like this, and the four of them, Jiu Chong, Ying Tian, are also like this."

"However, I encountered difficulties in writing the cultivation method, and my speed was a bit slower than theirs. I was the last one to become an immortal."

"I thought you would name your cultivation method 'Invincible Immortal Technique'." Lu Yang whispered.

The Decayed Fairy waved her hand, appearing very generous: "That won't do. That's Ying Tian's cultivation method. I can't take someone else's place."

Lu Yang: "..."

Ying Tian, what's wrong with you? Have you been assimilated by the Decayed Fairy?

He found that compared to Jiu Chong's "Chaos One Qi Two Yi Four Images Six Harmonies Eight Desolations Nine Lands Ten Heavens Only I Am Supreme Immortal Technique" and Ying Tian's "Invincible Immortal Technique", it was actually the Decayed Fairy's cultivation method name that was the most decent.

Of course, it was also possible that the Decayed Fairy had no culture and thought that since she attained the Decayed Dao Fruit, she named her cultivation method "Decayed Immortal Technique".

"What is the Qilin Immortal's cultivation method called?"

"'Even More Invincible Immortal Technique'."

"Actually, I also wanted to call it this name, but the Qilin Immortal was one step ahead and also occupied my name."

Considering that the Qilin Immortal and Ying Tian often argued about who had the closest relationship with Heaven, his naming of the cultivation method was also well-founded... Lu Yang tried his best to round it up for the Qilin Immortal.

"What is the Time Immortal's cultivation method called?"

"'Eternal Evergreen Technique'."

Lu Yang gasped. As expected of the oldest Time Immortal, this naming level was much stronger than the four illiterates including the Decayed Fairy.

The Decayed Fairy shook her head: "I think the name the Time Immortal gave is the worst, sounding like a rotten street cultivation method."

"At that time, the cultivation methods practiced by the Tribulation Transcendence and Integration stages were all called 'Undying and Indestructible Sutra', 'Heavenly Expansion Dao Spectrum', 'Five Elements Rotation Technique'. The Time Immortal's cultivation method was inconspicuous among them. How does it look like an immortal's cultivation method?"

Lu Yang thought to himself that the four of them had poor naming levels and still wanted to drag the Time Immortal into the water.

Wait, Ying Tian is a face-saving immortal; how could he give such a name?

"Does Ying Tian's cultivation method have other names?"

"Yes, he calls his cultivation method 'Innate Boundless Immortal Technique' to the outside world."

Lu Yang harvested ancient secrets while walking into the Scripture Library.

The first thing to do after entering the Scripture Library was to find the book recording the senior brothers and sisters' Jin Dan experience.

It was time to fill in his own Jin Dan.

"Lu Yang, Invincible Elixir, First-Grade Jin Dan. Those who practice this elixir can distinguish between strong and weak. Invincible thoughts arise in the heart, feeling that one can be invincible, win every battle, and be invincible in the world."

Originally, Lu Yang wanted to listen to the Decayed Fairy's slander and add a sentence "This Jin Dan is truly the world's number one Jin Dan", but on second thought, the Eldest Senior Sister's Jin Dan was at the very front, so forget it.

"Practice method: Challenge across levels, win every battle without defeat, generate invincible momentum, borrow momentum to rise, condense the Qi of the dantian, only then can one form the elixir."

"Note one: Challenging across levels is challenging one level up, not one level down."

"Note two: This Jin Dan may lead to blind self-confidence."

"Note three: The Jin Dan name is for reference only, and the actual combat effect shall prevail."

"Done!" Lu Yang closed the book with satisfaction.

"Let's look at the Jin Dan stage cultivation method." Lu Yang walked to the second floor.

The first floor contained folk books and the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment parts of various cultivation methods.

The follow-up parts of the cultivation methods were on the second floor, which contained Jin Dan and Nascent Soul stage cultivation methods.

"'Red Dust Heavenly Technique', body in the red dust, heart in the pure land. Only by sinking in the red dust, experiencing the suffering of the world, seven emotions and six desires, and then having a great epiphany, can one shatter the elixir to form the Nascent Soul."

"I didn't expect the first one to be this cultivation method."

"Have you seen it?" There was no such thing as Red Dust Cultivation or World-Avoiding Cultivation in the Decayed Fairy's era.

"The Eldest Senior Sister told me about this. There used to be many old beggars on the streets of the Great Xia. Many cultivators practicing this cultivation method pretended to be old beggars and mixed among them. After all, being a beggar is the most efficient way to experience the suffering of the world."

"Used to be? Isn't it like this now?" The Decayed Fairy noticed the keyword.

Lu Yang rolled his eyes: "With the development of the Great Xia Dynasty, increasing grain production, and building welfare institutions, there are no beggars anymore. Now the old beggars on the street are all in the Jin Dan stage."

"I reckon it won't be long before this group of Jin Dan stage cultivators will change their way of experiencing the red dust."

"The Eldest Senior Sister also said that the imperial court is preparing to open several mines and let this group of Jin Dan stage cultivators go in to mine."

The Decayed Fairy: "..."

"'Hundred Flowers Technique', collect thirty-three different varieties of rare flowers at each stage. When the Jin Dan stage is perfect, combine ninety-nine rare flowers into one flower bud. When the flower bud blooms, it is the time to shatter the elixir to form the Nascent Soul. Many female cultivators like this cultivation method. It is simple to get started and has great aesthetic beauty."

"However, with the popularity of this cultivation method, several rare flowers were picked to near extinction. Only one person held the last few flowers in his hand. He held an auction and sold the last few flowers at a sky-high price."

"After another period of time, he said he still had a few flowers in his hand and wanted to auction them again."

"After another period of time, it was like this again."

"Later, people realized that this cultivation method was written by him. He collected all the flowers in advance and released a few every once in a while, just to make money."

"'Sword Dao True Interpretation', this is the cultivation method Master practiced. Like the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, as long as you keep comprehending the Sword Dao, there will be no bottlenecks in cultivation. It is the most suitable cultivation method for our Sword Spiritual Root lineage."

"I wanted to practice this cultivation method directly back then, but unfortunately, only one person in the world can practice this cultivation method. Master practiced it, so I couldn't practice it."

The Decayed Fairy was thoughtful. Based on her observation of the Sword Dao mastered by the Unspoken Daoist, he didn't look like someone who was blocked at the threshold of the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
