It's ready. However, everyone's constitution is different, so I do not know whether it will suit you. This is a technique I created based on your constitution. You can try cultivating it, but if you encounter any problems, stop immediately and tell me exactly what happened, Lin Zheyu said through voice transmission as he stood and looked toward Zong Linjing.
During the past half day, he had created a rudimentary, introductory cultivation method that incorporated techniques which did not require the use of a natal shamanic pattern, along with some knowledge of Immortal Dao body-refining techniques and formations. He named it the Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art. It was not intended to serve as a primary cultivation technique, but as a supplementary one.
The Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art combined many of the cultivation systems Lin Zheyu had studied, allowing it to stimulate the body's latent potential and enhance the effects of cultivation. However, it needed to be used alongside a special formation and potent spirit medicines to achieve its greatest effect.
"So quick!" Zong Linjing exclaimed in surprise.
She hurriedly composed her delighted expression and dipped into a slight bow. "Many thanks, fellow friend."
Lin Zheyu smiled and nodded, accepting her bow. With a turn of his right hand, he took out a jade scroll, imprinted the technique within it, and tossed it toward Zong Linjing. She caught the jade scroll and eagerly began examining its contents. The surprise on her face steadily deepened, and her eyes filled with disbelief.
It truly is a complete technique, and theoretically, it is highly feasible! This is simply incredible. This technique incorporates elements from numerous systems, including Immortal Dao body refinement, formations, shamanic arts, and even the barbarian totem path!
Zong Linjing was astonished.
It was already astounding that he understood so many different cultivation systems to such a profound degree. What she found even more incredible was that Fellow Xiao Yu had managed to integrate them so seamlessly. Judging from its theoretical foundations, there would be almost no major conflicts during cultivation.
After imprinting the technique into her consciousness, Zong Linjing eagerly began cultivating it. Although she lacked the spirit medicines and formation required for the Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art, that would not prevent her from practicing the technique. Its effects would simply be weaker, while the cultivation process would be somewhat more difficult and painful.
Seeing Zong Linjing begin cultivating, Lin Zheyu opened the Heavenly Eye within his sea of consciousness and curiously observed the process. Zong Linjing had not activated the protective barrier around her formation node, allowing Lin Zheyu to intervene immediately if anything went wrong. Suddenly, her once-calm face twisted in agony. Beads of sweat poured from her forehead and ran down her cheeks. She was clearly enduring pain beyond imagination.
Hmm, this part needs improvement. I am already accustomed to this degree of pain, but other cultivators would find it difficult to endure. Anyone with insufficient mental fortitude might be forced out of the cultivation state by the unbearable agony, or even suffer cultivation deviation, Lin Zheyu thought to himself.
Fortunately, Zong Linjing possessed exceptionally strong mental fortitude, and this degree of pain was not enough to defeat her. Enduring the agony brought about by the cultivation process, she carefully circulated the technique.
Gradually, her body began to heat up, and the blood and blood qi within her started to boil. Her spiritual soul also underwent subtle changes alongside her body. Her consciousness became more active, while her perception of her own body steadily sharpened.
Relying on the miraculous effects of Origin Force, Lin Zheyu often used methods that overdraw his latent potential during cultivation. He had accumulated extensive experience in stimulating latent potential without damaging one's foundation. By incorporating these insights into techniques from various cultivation systems, he had perfected the unique technique known as the Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art.
More than two hours later, Zong Linjing's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, her face somewhat exhausted, excitement and exhilaration shining within them. It worked! The effect was remarkably powerful! It was simply unbelievable!
"Many thanks, fellow friend. Should you ever require my assistance in the future, you need only ask," Zong Linjing said solemnly as she rose and bowed deeply to Lin Zheyu.
Even without the spirit medicines and formation meant to assist its cultivation, she felt better than ever after practicing the Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art. If she recovered with medicinal pills now and then devoted herself to cultivation, she would be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort. It was truly incredible.
"Haha, I am glad it proved useful. This technique was actually developed from an incomplete technique I discovered in some ruins and later refined. We are all martial artists, and the path of martial cultivation is difficult enough as it is. Every additional martial artist who walks this path gives martial cultivation another measure of hope," Lin Zheyu said with a smile.
He questioned Zong Linjing in detail about every problem she had encountered during cultivation and anything that had felt unusual. Then he closed his eyes again and fell silent.
Looking at Lin Zheyu across from her, Zong Linjing breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, Fellow Xiao had obtained this technique from some ruins. Had he truly created it specifically for her, his talent would have been far too monstrous.
Just as Zong Linjing began to relax, Lin Zheyu abruptly opened his eyes, took out a jade scroll, and imprinted the revised technique within it.
"Try it again. I obtained this technique a hundred years ago and have studied it extensively. I have refined it once more, so there should not be any major problems now." Lin Zheyu tossed the jade scroll toward Zong Linjing.
"Uh... what?" Zong Linjing blinked, her eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.
Is revising and refining a technique on the level of the Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art really so effortless? Has he merely adjusted a few insignificant details?
Uh, no. He did not. He actually did not!
As she examined the new jade scroll, these thoughts flashed through Zong Linjing's mind, and a storm of shock surged through her heart. She blinked in disbelief, staring at Lin Zheyu with a dazed and bewildered expression. Complicated emotions filled her heart, and although she had much she wanted to say, no words came when she opened her mouth. In the end, she merely bowed deeply and said, "Many thanks, fellow friend."
"There is no need for such courtesy. We are merely helping one another. Perhaps one day, I may also need your assistance. I hope you will lend me a hand when that time comes," Lin Zheyu said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively.
He had quite a favorable impression of Zong Linjing. She was a fine woman, and this technique was nothing particularly valuable to Lin Zheyu, nor would it expose any of his secrets. Since the two of them were friends, it was perfectly natural for him to give it to her.
"I hereby swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao that should Fellow Xiao ever require my aid, I will not refuse!" Zong Linjing declared solemnly, going so far as to make an oath to the Heavenly Dao on the spot.
"You are taking this too seriously. Study the technique first, and tell me if you encounter any problems. I will see whether I can refine it further," Lin Zheyu said with a smile, waving his hand.
Having casually helped Zong Linjing resolve a minor problem, he began his own cultivation. He had already cultivated the Primordial Chaos True Art to Perfection and broken free of his second shackle. His next task was to find a way to break free of the third.
First, I will refine the structure of the divine patterns. Then, using the experience I gained from cultivating the Primordial Chaos True Art as a foundation, I will integrate my natal shamanic pattern into them. Once that is done, the initial fusion of shamanic arts and martial cultivation will be complete. I can then use the newly fused divine patterns as the foundation for beginning the second stage of the Primordial Chaos True Art, Lin Zheyu thought.
The fusion of the Shamanic Dao and martial cultivation was even more difficult than he had imagined and could not possibly be accomplished in a single step. It had to be divided into many stages, with the fusion gradually improved and perfected until he could ultimately transcend both systems and create a unique, supreme path of martial cultivation.
This was Lin Zheyu's plan for his future path. As his cultivation level rose and his knowledge accumulated, he would continue refining and perfecting it. He carefully reviewed his plans for the future once more.
After confirming that there were no problems, Lin Zheyu calmed his mind and focused his thoughts. The Heavenly Eye within his sea of consciousness suddenly opened, and he began comprehending the surrounding formation restrictions. The transformed Heavenly Eye was extraordinarily powerful. Even when the demon realm was not invading and the formation restrictions had not been activated, it allowed him to perceive them as clearly as he previously could only when the formations were active.
Time slowly passed. While Lin Zheyu was immersed in cultivation, strange changes were unfolding within the demon cave. A terrifying, oppressive aura spread from its depths, weighing upon the cultivators inside and filling them with the stifling sense that a storm was about to break.
"This feeling again, time after time. Hah!"
At the very center of the city lay the core of every formation. A breathtakingly beautiful woman dressed in fiery red opened her eyes and looked toward the space-time node, a cold smile appearing on her lips.
Nearly every time, she had sensed this terrifying aura coming from the demon realm on the other side of the node. Such an aura would only appear when the demon realm was preparing an all-out assault and intended to use this space-time node as its point of breakthrough. Each time, the woman had prepared herself for battle, only for the enemy's threat to prove a feint.
The yao on the other side of the space-time node seemed to be playing a game of crying wolf, launching feint after feint in hopes of making the woman lower her guard. Unfortunately for them, their plan was destined to fail. No matter how many times they tried, she treated every incident as a full-scale invasion from the demon realm and never relaxed her vigilance in the slightest.
"That little fellow from the Martial Alliance really is rather interesting. The Circulating Heavenly Radiant Light Guiding Art is an intriguing technique. With a few modifications, it could even prove quite effective for beginners on the Immortal Dao."
The red-robed woman withdrew her gaze from the space-time node and looked toward Lin Zheyu's location. Her eyes were unfathomably deep, as though they could pierce through the formation restrictions and see him directly.
Suddenly, Lin Zheyu, who was comprehending the formation restrictions, frowned slightly and looked toward a certain point in the void.
Someone is spying on me! Lin Zheyu thought.
Just moments ago, while he was fully absorbed in comprehending the formation restrictions, he had sensed an extremely well-concealed gaze watching him. Had his Heavenly Eye not undergone its transformation, he might not have noticed it at all.
Who could it be? Lin Zheyu frowned.
The sensation of being watched had vanished the instant he noticed it. Even when Lin Zheyu tried to trace the aura back to the hidden observer, he found no way to do so.
The red-robed woman withdrew her gaze in surprise. "He could even detect that? Was it due to his powerful martial cultivation intuition, or the spirit divine ability he awakened?"
Previously, she had mainly been observing Zong Linjing, so she had not attracted Lin Zheyu's attention. Yet just now, when she used the formation core to take a brief look at him, he sensed it almost instantly. It was simply unbelievable.
The red-robed woman was filled with astonishment. "Even when I had first entered the Deity Transformation realm, I would not have been able to detect someone secretly observing me through the city's formation core while standing in the formation node guarded by that little fellow. Just how did he manage it?"
There was not the slightest trace of greed or malice in her eyes, only pure curiosity and surprise. After pondering for a moment, a gleam flashed through her eyes. "Perhaps bringing this little fellow along when I enter that place might produce an unexpected result."
