After seeing his older sister off, Chen Jingzhai reluctantly looked away from her luscious figure. Chen Jingzhai’s lips curled into a smirk as he tossed and caught the token in his hands.

This was a token of the Daoxuan Peak’s direct disciples. What was different was that this direct disciple token was at the same level as the Nascent Plane. After all, Chen Jingzhai called Su Qinghuang his older sister and called Headmaster Fuyun his older brother. Thus, his status on Daoxuan Peak now was as a direct disciple of the previous generation. He was the master-uncle of the Golden Core Sages and the Grand Master-Uncle of cultivators in the Foundation Plane. His status was the same as on Hongluan Peak.

This made things interesting. After all, the Hongluan Peak was a fallen hidden branch, and he was a direct disciple only in name. But now that he had entered the Daoxuan Peak, his title had substance, and he had a very high status.

“If this were in the mortal world, the excessive praise would make me lose myself. If this was in another celestial clan, I would also be hated. But in the Luo Sheng Sword School, the rules are strict, but every peak and branch has its own style and rules. It would be impossible if Daoxuan Peak’s leader did not agree with Headmaster Fuyun’s arrangement. Are the rules really like this, or is there something else?”

Chen Jingzhai pondered this silently while he put his token into his storage bag. No matter what, this was already set. He did not have the power to refuse. Compared to the Hongluan Peak, the Daoxuan Peak would naturally be easier to cultivate because it is a visible peak. Chen Jingzhai did not object to this.

He had been walking around Hongluan Peak trying to find a bug in the environment with his special talent, but he could only find a cultivation bug on the pine tree underfoot. It could not speed up his cultivation, but it helped him absorb the Sunrise Auspicious Qi more effectively. Whether rain or shine, he could absorb the Auspicious Qi every day, and he had taken this opportunity.

Chen Jingzhai cultivated many different techniques, so he had a huge need for Essence Power in his everyday cultivation. He would deplete all the Essence Power in one day if he cultivated in his courtyard. If he wanted to keep improving, the ordinary Essence Power would not be very effective anymore; he would either have to refine spirit stones directly or refine some special Essence Power.

The Sunrise Auspicious Qi was a special type of Essence Power, and it was especially suitable for him to cultivate the Innate Yang Qi. Plus, with every bit of Sunrise Auspicious Qi that entered his body, the divine stone in his upper core would release an aura. This aura was very similar to the Sunrise Auspicious Qi, but it was much cleaner and purer.

After it landed in his upper core, Chen Jingzhai’s upper core would expand, and his divine mind would become stronger. Chen Jingzhai obviously would not miss out on this benefit. Even if he could not absorb the Auspicious Qi after sunrise, he would sit here to cultivate when he had time too. The Essence Power was indeed not as good as in his courtyard, but it was extremely quiet and more suitable for studying spells. He was in love with spells. Even a mere earth escape spell could help him resolve a danger.

Thus, even though he was a Foundation Plane cultivator, he still did not stop his cultivation of spells. Even though his spiritual power transformed into the Yin and Yang attributes, it did not stop him from cultivating more five-element spells. He had, after all, received his celestial bone by reforming his five-element spirit root. Even though he added the ice phoenix, the five elements did not change. With help from the divine stone, Chen Jingzhai was very skilled at the five-element spells.

“Older Sister specifically mentioned it, so I’m sure there’s something extraordinary about formation patterns. I wish I could comprehend the formation patterns too, but I just can’t!”

Chen Jingzhai sat down cross-legged with a troubled expression on his face. He had the complete Reversed Yin Yang Grand Technique, so he naturally understood that formation patterns were the core of sky scriptures. But his situation was different. Even though he used the Yin Yang Formation as the first formation that he cultivated, it was after he added the Yin Yang seal characters. The dragon and phoenix seal characters also evolved, adding more mysteriousness to the formation patterns in his body.

Chen Jingzhai really would not be able to comprehend it quickly. As for what specific abilities it possessed, he would need time to study it, and he would even need more opportunities. More importantly, he was still unable to find the bug. This was the most annoying part. It was also why he had to cultivate an additional sword technique.

[Sword technique: Fire Raven Connection Sky Sword]

[Note: from the Fire Raven Burning Sky Celestial Code]

[Advantages: thousands upon thousands of ravens will be connected and burn powerfully.]

[Disadvantages: high standard for spiritual power, only suitable for fire and Yang attributes, high standard for the sword’s grade.]

[Flaw: effect will be multiplied when cultivated with the Jade Toad Swallowing Sky Sword, cultivation speed increased under the sun.]

[Sword technique: Jade Toad Swallowing Sky Sword]

[Note: from the Jade Toad Swallowing Moon Celestial Code]

[Advantages: the three-inch jade toad can swallow the sky, the sword is soft yet aggressive.]

[Disadvantages: the spiritual power is gentle and it’s hard for the sword to contain it, has the risk of being possessed.]

[Flaw: effect will be multiplied when cultivated with the Fire Raven Connection Sky Sword and prevent the risk of becoming possessed.]

Chen Jingzhai still did not give up on either of these auxiliary celestial codes. Right now, these two sword techniques are extremely suitable for him to cultivate. He would usually cultivate the Fire Raven after absorbing the Sunrise Auspicious Qi and then the Jade Toad. He would slowly stop after circulating the spiritual energy a dozen times. His sword technique improved rapidly in just a few days.

More importantly, he was slowly grasping the Yin and Yang spiritual power within him. Even though it was not finetuned yet, he had also grasped the power of the Five Bamboo Sword. He was only a cultivator in the Foundation Plane. It was honestly too luxurious for him to use a magical sword. Ninety percent of the Five Bamboo Sword’s power was sealed away, but he was still careful about it. In addition, he could absorb the Sun and Moon Qi while cultivating the two sword techniques. It was very faint, but if he cultivated it to its highest state, then he would have no trouble collecting Sun Fire and Moon Essence. This was the ability of the celestial code, after all.

Meanwhile, the Sun Fire and Moon Essence were extremely valuable. It was useful for Chen Jingzhai’s cultivation too, so he naturally would not miss out on it. Any other person, even if they cultivated both at the same time, would become possessed and go crazy. They wouldn’t be able to endure the aggressiveness of both sword techniques. But for Chen Jingzhai, it was very natural for him. He did not have any risks, and instead, it was full of benefits. This was the most amazing aspect of the Reversed Yin Yang Grand Technique.

After the formation patterns appeared, he could improve his physical body in addition to his cultivation by absorbing Essence Power. The Yin Yang Formation in his body grew stronger, even though the ability of the formation pattern was still unknown. The cultivation effects far surpassed those of Daoxuan Peak cultivators. Not even Su Qinghuang knew about this. Chen Jingzhai experienced it, but he couldn’t pinpoint it. After all, he had just started cultivating. He didn’t have much experience or knowledge. He could only learn so much from reading. Chen Jingzhai felt that he could indeed go check out Daoxuan Peak.

“There’s no rush right now! Since my status is set, it won’t change. My cultivation is too weak right now. I’ll be looked down upon if I go to Daoxuan Peak. For now, I will organize the techniques of the Foundation Plane while cultivating the sword techniques. I should move up the Pill Extraction and Purification Scripture too. Otherwise, the Essence Power of the courtyard won’t be able to support my cultivation at all.”

Sitting on the pine tree, Chen Jingzhai started calculating silently.

His cultivation had already deviated from the orthodox. It was different from regular cultivators. If he wanted to keep improving, he would rely heavily on spirit stones in the future. It was far from enough to rely only on the spirit stones given by the clan. With how poor Hongluan Peak was, Chen Jingzhai could not ask Older Sister Su for spirit stones either. Thus, earning spirit stones became the next most important task.

Thankfully, he had the Pill Extraction and Purification Scripture and his special talent could help him see the loopholes. As long as he caught the loopholes and followed the descriptions, it shouldn’t be hard to make pills.

“I need a special cauldron, restrictions, and talismans. It seems that I can’t use an alchemist from the Heavenly Artisan. I can only do it myself.” Chen Jingzhai furrowed his brows slightly.

Restrictions and talismans were often seen in loopholes, as well as in the special cauldron.

If he asked an alchemist to create a restriction, then it would be no different from exposing his secret. Chen Jingzhai did not want this.

He could only do it himself, even if it meant wasting some spirit stones.
