Chapter 36: Divine Secret Realm Advancement

  New books need care

  ……

  Chen Mo only felt his arm was numb as if struck by lightning, but he endured it and didn't retreat half a step. The man in green clothes took the initiative to grab Chen Mo's arm with both hands and used his shoulder to collide with Chen Mo's chest.

  As soon as he crashes into something, Chen Mo will inevitably have his internal organs shattered and die vomiting blood.

  Just as the two arms were grabbed by the man in green, and just before they collided, Chen Mo gathered all his light mysterious energy, stomped his feet on the ground, and launched the "Wan Nian Qing" technique at this extremely critical moment.

  A dull thud as two chests collided with a "thwack".

  Chen Mo spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell together with the blood. Although he had blocked the fatal blow, he still retreated several steps back fiercely.

  The man in the green robe, after one move, seemed like a deflated balloon, having already consumed eight or nine-tenths of his vital energy, and could only stand still, pale-faced, panting heavily.

  Chen Mo stood up, standing still, his eyes gleaming with a flash of light. His body suddenly moved, and he threw a punch. The opponent dodged to the side, Chen Mo's left foot kicked forward fiercely, his chest simultaneously leaning forward in sync, a powerful Golden Vajra Quake strike landed heavily on him.

  A loud "bang" shook the air, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out in a beautiful arc. As the blood fell to the ground, everything returned to calmness. In the vast forest, only the sound of Chen Mo's heavy, labored breathing remained.

  After rummaging through the corpse, Chen Mo's eyes lit up at the items inside. There was a mid-grade "Earth Movement Manual", sandwiched between which were three hundred taels of gold notes, quite valuable indeed.

  The grass covered up the dead body, and then continued to sweep towards home.

  Vanished into thin air.

  ……

  At night, in Chen Mo's home.

  In front of him, five volumes of Xuan Gong secret books were spread out. Four of them were ordinary lower-grade books, and the one in the middle was an ordinary mid-grade book, "Xuan Mu Jue". This volume of Xuan Mu Jue was exchanged by Chen Mo from his family's scripture storage building with the spoils of war, "Tu Xing Jue".

  Very normal behavior, many practitioners who use Qingmu Jue as the introductory exercise, when reaching a higher level of Lingtu, often switch to practicing Xuanmu Jue. To make their Xuan Qi even more refined and powerful.

  No one could have imagined that Chen Mo was actually cultivating the Great Brightness Divine Technique.

  The Great Bright Divine Key is a blank divine key that requires the fusion of the essence of various gongfa, removing its dross, in order to continuously grow. Only after fusing with the Qingmu Key does the Great Bright Divine Key reach its most original and primary stage.

  To let the Great Brightness Divine Incantation advance again, it is necessary to merge new cultivation techniques. In a certain sense, this is devouring.

  Chen Mo first picked up a copy of the Cold Ice Manual, opened the seal, and a chill that pierced to the bone spread through the pages made of demon beast skin into his meridians. Chen Mo did not choose to resist, but instead allowed the chill to penetrate his body, wandering through his meridians.

  This is the subtlety of passing down the kung fu, and also the reason why a low-level cultivation technique like this one has to be sold for fifty taels of gold. Anyone who creates and passes down a cultivation technique must necessarily be proficient in the use of talismans, combining them with precious materials such as demon cores, beast blood, etc., and sealing the kung fu imprint in a talismanic way.

  In such a clever way, guiding practitioners to enter the door in the most expedient manner.

  If it's just passed down through text and illustrations, those who are literate and skilled in drawing can easily copy hundreds or thousands of copies. Isn't that a huge profit? In fact, without the effect of transmission symbols, practitioners who want to comprehend the skills by relying solely on texts and pictures need extremely great wisdom and perseverance, and it's hard to achieve results even after several months or half a year.

  With the invention and popularity of transmission talismans, the traditional time-consuming and labor-intensive method of transmission has been used less and less.

  Of course, the transmission of talismans in this beginner's gongfa is also limited. Often after several weeks, the energy will be exhausted. If you haven't learned it yet, you can only slowly comprehend it or find someone who is proficient in this way to recreate the talisman. However, for a beginner's gongfa, the price is not worth buying another copy.

  Fortunately, for such a low-level technique, most people with good comprehension can easily grasp the key.

  It is precisely this that greatly facilitates Chen Mo's cultivation of the Great Brightness Technique. The secret book of the Cold Ice Technique allows a faintly cold air to circulate and flow repeatedly within his body.

  After three weeks, when that breath gradually weakened, Chen Mo's Great Brightness Divine Technique began to operate on its own. Strands of bright mysterious energy followed the circulation route of the Cold Ice Technique, rotating repeatedly in a cycle.

  Until the ninth week, when a new cycle of macrocosm is formed, the Great Brightness Divine Incantation undergoes a profound transformation. Still based on the framework and foundation of the Azure Wood Incantation, it becomes even more complex, incorporating the effects of the Frosty Ice Incantation after its essence has been refined and merged.

  But this is still far from enough to cultivate the Great Brightness Mantra to the second level.

  With the experience of the first time, it's much easier to handle afterwards. Picking up another thick book of Taoist scriptures, following the same procedure, extracting its essence and absorbing it into the Great Brightness Spirit Incantation.

  But this time, it was much less than what he had obtained from the Glacial Descent Technique.

  Third time, Flame Yang Jue, followed by Sharp Gold Jue. The changes produced by the Great Bright Divine Jue are also becoming less and less, with a structure that is increasingly stable.

  After all five elements of the Xuan Gong were swallowed, the Daguangming Shen Jue had approached the first layer of perfection, as if it was just one step away from completion.

  This made Chen Mo secretly rejoice, fortunately, he had prepared a mid-grade ordinary book "Xuanmu Jue". In the end, as usual, he swallowed and merged Xuanmu Jue.

  It is indeed a middle-grade technique of the ordinary class, much more complicated than the lower-grade techniques, allowing the Great Brightness Spirit Incantation to gain immense benefits, breaking through from the first layer's perfect state to the second layer.

  The current Great Brightness Divine Technique is much more complicated in the way of circulating the Xuan Qi through the Heavenly Cycle, and it's obviously much more powerful than the first layer. Especially after the circulation of the Heavenly Cycle, the refined and re-refined Brightness Xuan Qi is even more pure, with an extremely strong and masculine energy that is even more intense.

  One punch was thrown out, and the fierce fist force shocked the air to explode.

  This made Chen Mo's eyes shine brightly, worthy of the Great Brightness Divine Technique, integrating the heavenly mysteries and heart methods, giving birth to a thread of pure and bright light. This is only the second layer of the Brightness Divine Technique, if it were the third, fourth or even ninth layer, wouldn't its power be extraordinary?

  For a moment, Chen Mo was filled with longing for the future.

  ……

  It's been several days again.

  The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the window, making the whole room warm instantly. Chen Mo had integrated the second layer of Guangming Shenjue and decided to go to Qiu Long Mountain Range for a period of cultivation.

  The distance to the clan comparison is less than three months. Relying solely on these elixir resources, practicing at home is absolutely impossible to reach the peak of Lingtong. If so, what qualifications do you have to challenge Chen Xuan?

  What is meant by self-cultivation is like going upstream in a boat. Only by constantly striving valiantly and making progress through various trials and tribulations can one achieve improvement.

  The Qiu Long mountain range, fraught with danger, yet also accompanied by numerous opportunities. This is also the result of Chen Mo's deep contemplation, if he were to be afraid of even this level of danger, how could he charge forward bravely? What's the point of talking about being first in the clan rankings then?

  Jianmo and his family exchanged a few words, saying that he was going to retreat and cultivate. He arrived at the Family General Affairs Hall, which was an independent large hall. Inside the magnificent hall, more than a dozen young men from various families were already searching for suitable tasks.

  He's not the first time to come to the General Affairs Hall, before in order to treat his brother's leg, he also came here to receive some tasks, accumulate contribution points, and exchange for medicine pills for his brother. But because of limited strength, he can only take on some errands and chores, and it takes a long time to save up for an ordinary medicine pill, otherwise he wouldn't have entered the Small Cave Heaven adventure.

  The family set up the General Affairs Hall, mainly to hone the abilities and handling capabilities of the younger generation. If they were all just muddle-headed cultivators who didn't understand worldly affairs, how could the family continue to develop?

  "Hey, isn't this our Mo Young Master? Today you're here to take on hard labor again, to earn money for the disabled at home to buy medicine? You don't have to work so hard, just call your Huo Wu sister to serve me once, and I'll definitely reward you heavily."

  "Yes, young master, people like them are useless and would have starved to death outside if it weren't for the kindness of the three elders"

  "What a pity to have raised a group of white-eyed wolves, and yet they cruelly harmed their own brothers. The three elders can still tolerate it, truly having great magnanimity; if it were me, I would have hacked them to death with random knives."

  Just as Chen Mo had walked a few steps, a vicious voice rang out from behind. Turning his head back, the white-clothed young man at the front was unfortunately pale around the eyes, with sunken temples, clearly having neglected his cultivation due to indulging in women all day.

  This person is Chen De Shui's nephew, Yan Ao. He has been using Chen De Shui's name to bully men and women outside for a long time, doing whatever he wants. In the past, he often bullied himself too. But for his brother's sake, he felt guilty and didn't want to cause more trouble for his family, so he tolerated him in every way. Because Yan Ao is from the prestigious Yan family of Zhongxuan City, although he is not an important disciple, he is also not someone that his former self could afford to offend.

  "Say it again?" Chen's sharp eyes stared coldly at Yan Xiao.

  "Are you trying to scare me? I'm coming over now, dare you move?" Yan Xiao walked over with an arrogant face.

  "Bang!"

  With a loud crash, the ground shook at the same time, and Yan Xiao was like being hit by a fierce beast, flying horizontally and hitting the wall. The force was so great that even the wall trembled slightly. Yan Xiao, who fell to the ground like a dead dog, spat out three big mouthfuls of blood.

  Several dog-legged followers surrounded Chen Mo, just as they were about to shout and scold him, but saw that Chen Mo's eyes emitted a fierce killing intent, like a wild beast devouring people, which scared them into a cold sweat, and they retreated in terror for several steps.

  "Remember, the surname here is Chen, not Yan." Chen Mo's face was expressionless, and he said coldly: "Also, next time you insult my family members again, it won't be just a matter of spitting blood three times."

  He looked at Chen Mo with a fearful heart and didn't dare to be arrogant again.

  Some of the Chen family servants in the General Affairs Hall originally wanted to take down Chen Mo for daring to act, but as soon as they heard his words, they immediately looked up at the sky and saw nothing. What he said was right, this is the Chen family, not the Yan family.
