Chapter 108

  Chang'er followed the prison officer and her brother for a short while, before seeing a stone gate, about ten feet in diameter, with several ancient symbols on top that were difficult to discern.

  "Feng Cheng is right here, you can go in and visit him, but only for two incense sticks' time."

  "Thank you, senior brother!"

  The jailer's senior brother raised his hand, and an object flew out of his sleeve, flashing a few blue lights, and landed on the door with the symbol, suddenly making a few hissing sounds, the stone door opened wide. Rushing in, there was only one bed, where he saw him lying on his back, staring at the top of the stone cave, speechless and motionless. Chang'er's heart ached at the sight, and she burst into tears, crying out:

  "Not enough brother! Not enough brother!......"

  Insufficiently strong, she struggled to sit up and said to Chang'er:

  "Chang'er has arrived. Don't cry! Don't cry! This appearance will only make others laugh."

  "Insufficient older brother, how are you?"

  Chang Er gazed at him intently and saw that his eyes had lost their luster, his entire body was exhausted, and her heart ached again, causing her to burst into tears once more.

  "Insufficient elder brother, Chang'er has come to keep you company for a few days!"

  "Chang Er, don't talk such nonsense! Isn't one person here enough?"

  "Insufficient elder brother, it's just that you are such a sight, Xing'er can't bear it in her heart!"

  "Chang Er, this place is strange and unusual, our divine senses are limited, and we cannot absorb the heavenly energy of the universe. How can we cultivate?"

  "Don't worry, brother. Just stay here and read more books on Taoist magic and spells to broaden your knowledge. Twenty years will pass in the blink of an eye, and when you come out, your cultivation will surely make a huge leap."

  "It's just an ordinary life, but there are only a few twenty years! At present, I have not yet been able to break through the boundaries of the law body, and I see that accumulation is sufficient, and I can make a breakthrough at any moment. However, I am trapped in this place, unable to cultivate or practice, what can I do!"

  "Insufficient, brother. This place is just a limited spiritual realm, and it can't be helped that more effort is needed to cultivate one's spiritual power. If the spiritual power can break through, there will be no obstacles, and it will definitely accelerate the absorption of heaven and earth's divine energy, breaking through the law body and reaching the state of condensed origin! In my opinion, don't worry about any restrictions, just lower your head and bitterly cultivate! As the saying goes, 'There is nothing difficult in this world, only people who are willing to put in effort.' Twenty years later, perhaps no one among our fellow disciples will be able to catch up!"

  "Chang'er, can you go?"

  "Brother, is there anything in this world that you can't accomplish?"

  "Chang Er, how about... if we try it at a certain household?"

  "Yes! Insufficient brother, the cultivation of this book is to go against the heavenly way. Breaking the rules of heaven and earth's Tao, achieving our cultivators' dream of chasing the Great Way! This is what it means to cultivate! Those who sit in a secret room, relying on the protection of their family and sect, piling up immortal pills and magical medicines, safely and peacefully achieving spiritual powers, are like a fleeting white horse, disappearing in an instant, ultimately unable to achieve great things. Only by experiencing a thousand difficulties and hardships, enduring a thousand kinds of pain and suffering, can one cultivate great heart and willpower, achieving the supreme Great Way."

  "Chang Er, you are indeed a lucky star for someone!"

  A weight was lifted from his heart and he felt suddenly clear-headed. Chang'er's face lit up with a happy smile, but her beautiful eyes still held a few sparkling tears.

  "Chang'er, don't be like this, or you'll become a laughing stock for the prison guards and your elder brother."

  "Got it! Thanks, brother."

  Chang'er sat leaning against insufficient space, just staring at insufficient and smiling.

  From this, the insufficient quietly stayed in the prison of the immortal and on one hand restored the original diagram of the Taichu body, while on the other hand diligently cultivated. However, the Taichu body diagram was not ordinary, every time there was progress, it was always hindered by new difficulties. Therefore, the insufficient had to read through a large number of array method classics, and naturally, there were responses to every request, and with the progress, several array method masters were sent to assist. Even so, the progress of reorganizing the large array was still very slow. However, this kind of array research and cultivation helped a lot in the insufficient's recognition of the divine domain. In just five or six years, the insufficient could already recognize the divine domain again. At first, it was within this stone cave, but later he could even cover half of the prison of the immortal with it. When he had nothing to do, he would release his divine domain, and all the usual playful fights between the jailer brothers were included in the domain without exception. During normal cultivation of the array method, he also did not forget to cultivate his divine domain. The cultivation in the prison of the immortal, as well as the guests who came to the prison, were naturally accustomed to this kind of strange phenomenon, and no one leaked out the recognition of the divine domain, so although the insufficient's recognition had already reached a very high level, no one knew about it.

  However, the progress of cultivation is still very slow. Although Chang'er often sends in sacred pills to help, diligent cultivation has not stopped, and after such a long time, it's just barely possible to absorb a tiny bit of aura in this environment.

  Ten years is a relatively long period of time for ordinary people, but for cultivators, it's just an instant. The obstruction of the absorption of yuanqi leads to great disappointment and loss.

  "That won't do!"

  It's hard to express in words.

  "We must think of a way to use spiritual cultivation to mobilize the absorption of yuan energy, otherwise, even if we cultivate until death, our progress will not advance."

  Thinking this way, I couldn't help but think about the various techniques I've been using. The Taiyi Xuan Shen technique is mainly for cultivating one's spirit, the Jinsen technique is for tempering the body and soul, the Bayuan technique is for capturing objects with one's spirit, and the Dayu technique is for absorbing the divine energy of heaven and earth. There's also the Wan Jun Zhan technique, which has a powerful killing intent. In the past, during the sect's ranking competition, I had an experience where several techniques merged into one. At that time, I knew that this technique was not wrong, and the Dayu technique is an ancient cultivation method that absorbs divine energy very effectively. I wondered if it would be possible to combine these three techniques - Taiyi Xuan Shen, Jinsen, and Dayu - to enhance my spirit or assist in absorbing divine energy. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to try it out. Since I had experience with merging techniques before, I wasn't afraid of any problems arising during cultivation. So, without hesitation, I simultaneously activated these three techniques. As my spirit was the strongest, I naturally used the Taiyi Xuan Shen technique as the main one. I operated and controlled my spirit, using all my strength to push it out of my body, compressing it into a size similar to that of a real person, then slowly re-entered it, merging it with the divine energy of the Jinsen and Dayu techniques. As the divine energy circulated and fluctuated within my bones, I felt my spirit gradually merge with it. In the end, when the last thread of my spirit entered my body, I suddenly felt that my mind could clearly perceive the fluctuations of the divine energy, even the smallest ones. After a moment's contemplation, I took a deep breath and tried to push out my spirit again, which had merged with the divine energy. It was slow! But the tiny bit of divine energy that escaped from my body was truly real! In the end, when all the divine energy in my body had been released, I suddenly felt relieved, and the resentment that had accumulated over ten years disappeared. Because I clearly felt that the dense divine energy of heaven and earth outside was slowly merging into my own divine energy, although it was slow like a snail's pace, but it was real!

  After several days, in the prison of the captive immortal, Chang'e arrived here.

  "Insufficient brother, looking at your joyful appearance, could it be that you've made a breakthrough in the grand array?"

  "No! You can guess again!"

  "Have you got a new idea?"

  "Guess again!"

  "Insufficient brother, Chang'er won't guess anymore, you might as well tell Chang'er!"

  "Chang'er, a certain family has found a way to cultivate here!"

  "What? What method?"

  Chang'e asked in surprise.

  "I have combined the Golden Body Technique, the Taiyi Mysterious Spirit Technique and the Great Universe Technique into one. I can already absorb the primordial energy of heaven and earth in this land into my body! However, the effect is not very good."

  "What? Wait! Insufficient brother, you said you can absorb the heavenly energy of this land into your body?"

  "Yes!"

  "Aiya! Heaven's sake! Insufficient brother, you are indeed a true divine being! If I'm not mistaken, this place should be the ancient ruins built by the ancients, and its seal is set by the great families of the ancient times! It has the aura of the Desolate Expanse! Slightly carrying the laws and regulations of Heaven and Earth's Dao! You... you... you actually broke through this law!"

  "What? Chang'er, how did you know......"

  "Oh! Insufficient brother, this is what my master's daughter, Zhenren, has said. It must be true!"

  Chang'e awkwardly said.

  "Oh! No wonder. I thought you had gained a lot from studying the classics, Chang'er. The way of cultivation, diligence comes first, remember that!"

  "Yes, little brother is not enough, you must quickly tell me, what method can break the seal?"

  Nothing else, but the research on formation method was too tedious, and suddenly I thought of a lifesaving method that was born in crisis during the promotion trial. I will combine the three keys! With the recognition spirit and the heavenly earth yuan force dissolved, use the recognition spirit to cleverly guide the body bone yuan force out, try to absorb the heavenly earth divine yuan force, who knows it actually worked!

  "Is it really this simple?"

  "Ah, it is indeed!"

  "Not bad, brother! You're really something! However, this matter can't be mentioned to anyone!"

  "I understand!"

  Insufficient emphasis on key points.
