Chapter 416 Taking Action (Celebrating the Leader of the Flying Flowers Falling Lake Alliance)
Inside the cave.
Fang Qing silently sensed the four [Ji Shui] supernatural powers within himself.
"If I were just a cultivator of the Qi-conquering path, I would have no way to advance at this point. I could only wait until my supernatural powers were perfected, then try to curry favor with the major Golden Core lineages and become a lackey for the Golden Core True Monarchs—and then try to survive in the cracks, hoping to risk my life for a chance to prove myself as a Golden Core cultivator."
Whether this opportunity is real or a scam, don't worry about that.
"But I also cultivate Qi Refining. As long as I cultivate in seclusion and break through to the Nascent Soul stage—to sense the Metal position of the [Ji Water] with the status of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and refine my spirit to unite with the Dao—I will be able to compile my own method for seeking metal."
"If you seek a position of authority or leadership—that's naturally difficult; but if you lower your expectations and only seek to be subordinate, compliant, or even a guest or someone in a less desirable position—then you have a much better chance!"
"The path to becoming a Golden Core True Monarch is laid out before us, without any difficulties whatsoever—simply follow the steps—"
He let out a long sigh: "Unfortunately, there's only one vacancy."
"Besides, Bai Ze is still in trouble—if you only want to become a Golden Core True Monarch and live a carefree life, you can relax."
"But if one wishes to attain the Water Virtue [Yearly Official], one cannot let go of any opportunity to test the Water Virtue True Lord through the Way of Subduing Qi!"
"The Dragon Lord of the Flood Palace, residing in the [Shenshui] region, is the main force this time, aside from the Golden Elixir Masters of the North and South—"
Upon realizing this, Fang Qing suddenly activated the "Dao Sheng Pearl".
Pure air rises, turbid air sinks, clouds rise and mist gather —
Within the Purple Mansion, the four divine powers inexplicably shifted, transforming one by one into [Female Earth]!
"White Bone Contemplation", "Washing Away Worldly Ties", "The Fear of Death", "The Land of Rebirth"!
The four supernatural powers cycle in a loop, and the four methods are all complete, reaching the realm of the Great True Person of the Four Laws!
This was all thanks to Fang Qing's premeditated plan, his deduction of the "Rebirth Land" supernatural chapter, and his consumption of a true essence as a seed.
At this moment of transformation, one can naturally achieve supernatural powers in an instant.
Unfortunately, the fourth supernatural power was also not perfected, so it cannot be called the ultimate in the four methods, but it is already very close!
It can be said that he has reached the limit of the new method of Qi cultivation!
As for the higher ranks of immortals, envoys, Buddhist disciples, and divine servants—although they possess the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator, they did not achieve this through their own cultivation, but rather required the promotion of a Golden Core True Monarch above them.
From then on, they would share the same fate as the Golden Elixir True Lord they were affiliated with and dependent on—even at the cost of making it difficult to make further progress in their cultivation!
In terms of strength and the application of supernatural powers, my Four Methods [Ji Water] is actually the strongest.
But what we really need to see is not any particular lineage, but the true treasure!
Fang Qing calmed himself down and communicated with the Dao Sheng Zhu radiant light, finding a speck of light like amber.
Within the points of light is a thangka made of human skin, depicting the divine form of the Lord of the charnel ground!
With his current status as the Great Perfection of the Four Laws of Earth, he is already capable of refining this golden nature and becoming the disciple of the "Master of the Corpse Forest".
Unfortunately, this is a dead end—but with the help of the Buddha's power, there is still some possibility. After all, I have the Dao-Born Pearl as an intermediary and barrier—
In an instant, Fang Qing began to truly refine this Buddhist treasure.
After all, it contains a trace of the [Female Earth] metal element, which would be somewhat difficult even for a Grand Master in the past.
However, things are completely different after the fourth method.
Boom!
As the radiance of the [female earth spirit] faded, all sorts of wondrous things arose in his mind:
The "Female Earth" element, residing at the end of the four Earth elements, represents mausoleums, tombs, graves, and mounds, possessing the virtue of appeasing spirits and accumulating yin earth.
If borrowing the power of this Buddhist treasure before was like using a water pipe to pump water from a pool, then Fang Qing now felt as if a floodgate had been opened, with countless wondrous things gushing out!
No wonder one must possess all four methods within the Purple Mansion to even meet a Golden Core True Lord.
Whether seeking a position of power, a title of envoy, or a position of immortality, a solid foundation is still required, and the Four Methods are the minimum requirement.
In other words, even the Great Perfected Ones of the Three Laws are not qualified to become immortals, attendants of gods, or disciples of Buddhas!
Furthermore, after the four methods, Fang Qing felt that although his family's refining of the Dao-Born Pearl had not become more in-depth, it had become more flexible.
At this moment, he used the position of "Dao Sheng Zhu" to activate the power of the metal element of "Female Earth" and the Buddha's treasure, but he did not truly integrate it into his own body. Instead, he used it as a firewall, blocking this power, no matter how great it was, from entering the clear light.
Then, through the "omnipresent" nature of the Dao-born Pearl, it was transferred into Sangji's body.
He accepted the explanation.
Xuanxu Heaven, Xuanji Palace.
By the Venerable One—if that sword light had been even slightly off-center, this humble monk would have been killed—
Sangji was struggling to keep up, barely managing to maneuver with the help of the formation, but he couldn't stop Li Hu and the other Purple Mansions at all.
Seeing that they had demolished the sixteen pavilions and four halls, they were about to attack the most fundamental Xuanji Palace.
In Sangji's ears, Heize's furious words rang out: "You little monk—if Xuanji Palace becomes the first of the four palaces to be breached, then pay with your life! Within this grotto-heaven, even your true spirit cannot escape!"
Upon hearing this, Sangji's face immediately showed a hint of bitterness.
"Alas—Kuroze, you didn't even offer any support to my few Purple Mansion spirits. Otherwise, I could have used witchcraft to sacrifice one of them and see the effect—"
Of course, he also knew that the Xuanxu Heaven was now extremely empty and had no power left to support him.
If I do not wish for the Xuanji Palace to be destroyed, this humble monk will have no choice but to take action personally.
Sangji felt a pang of unease: Li Hu was a Grand Master at the late stage of the [Loujin] Purple Mansion realm, wielding the Nine-Turn Flying Sword—he could probably behead this humble monk within a few dozen moves—not to mention, there were several other Purple Mansion rogue cultivators assisting him—
Just then, he suddenly felt a series of mysterious things falling from the void.
The convergence of various divine lights from the Earth Goddess caused two more divine powers to appear outside the two divine power halos behind him!
—The terrifying sight of death!
"Reborn in the earth"!
In an instant, numerous profound mysteries arose in his mind, causing Sangji to beam with joy: "If this humble monk were to further cultivate the 'Death Terror Appearance' supernatural power, I could save at least ten years of arduous practice!"
But at this moment, he also realized with some difficulty that although the Venerable One had raised his cultivation to the fourth level of the [Female Earth] method, it was ultimately not his own.
If one's skill is insufficient and one tries to operate the skill, it's like a child wielding a heavy hammer; it might even hurt oneself or others!
"You should rest first."
A voice emerged in Sangji's mind.
Then, the even more terrifying [Female Earth] Metal element position descends.
Swish!
On Sangji's chest, a thangka of the "Lord of the Ashtanga" appeared, transforming into a pure white monk's robe. Behind him, six huge white bone beads floated, converging into a circle, and a white bone staff appeared in his hand.
Fang Qing gently reached out and pulled out a horned, skeletal demon mask from the void, covering his face with it.
"By relying on the power of the Buddha's treasures and the status of the metal element—it is ultimately not one's own."
"My current strength and status should surpass the peak of the Purple Mansion realm in the Four Perfections—yet I am still inferior to a true Buddha's disciple? I am only infinitely close—"
"Place it in the Qi Refining Path—probably at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm?!"
He tapped his mask, and his eyes shone with a crystalline yellow light, like two yellow gemstones.
"Hmm—even the Great Sun Tathagata might not be able to elevate a monk to Buddhahood through a grotto-heaven suppressed and controlled by attendant deities—but I possess the Dao-Born Pearl, which allows me to do so easily."
Alright, time to get down to business—that little white zealot is probably terrified too—
After muttering a few complaints to himself, Fang Qing stepped out and entered the Xuanji Palace.
Clang!
The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, which was transforming into a dazzling sword light, breaking through walls and dismantling pillars, was suddenly stopped by a white bone staff.
"Finally out? Earth Virtue Purple Mansion, let's see who you are—"
A glint flashed in Li Hu's eyes, and he suddenly froze.
He saw a white monk's robe with a cloak at the back, accompanied by six bone beads. The radiance of the [Female Earth] then overflowed, transforming into countless gushing tomb mounds, accompanied by a darkness within, within which countless ghosts and spirits seemed to serve as attendants, soldiers, slaves, and servants.
Beneath that horned, skeletal demon mask, only a pair of dim, crystalline eyes shone brightly, like two yellow gemstones.
It seems—it's not the Purple Mansion!
Li Hu felt a jolt of fear, and a few beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Lou Jin is indeed a formidable fighter; with a sword in hand, he is no less capable than those with the perfected Purple Mansion of Water, Earth, and Wood.
But this absolutely does not include a female envoy!
It's a pity—it seems a True Lord disagrees with shaking the Xuanxu Heaven—
Li Hu wanted to recall the flying sword, but he saw that the "Great Xia Dragon Sparrow" had somehow fallen into the hands of the [Female Earth] envoy in front of him.
A wondrous power, far surpassing any supernatural ability, descended—it was the cleansing of worldly ties!
In an instant, Li Hu felt that his Nine-Turn Flying Sword, which was connected to his mind and body, had lost its connection with him, and his face turned pale.
The Li family has a long history of cultivating [Lou Jin], and this "Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Sword" is a top-grade Nine-Turn Flying Sword, a family heirloom!
Only the most skilled sword immortal in each generation of the Li family can wield this sword and be revered as the sword wielder!
But today, this Nine-Turn Flying Sword was actually snatched away so easily right in front of a Grandmaster of Golden Virtue—
Behind Li Hu, the True Man Chigu's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He finally realized that he hadn't just been plundering an unclaimed cave, but had fallen into a power struggle among some True Lords.
Black smoke billowed around him as he tried to escape, but a darkness descended, revealing countless hideous demons and gods.
Clearly, Fang Qing at this moment was far superior to Zi Fu in terms of commanding ghosts and gods.
And for acquaintances they've only met once, there's even less room for leniency.
From the darkness came screams one after another. Li Hu's expression changed slightly, and the three divine powers behind him alternated, radiating the brilliance of [Lou Jin].
But Fang Qing simply reached out calmly and struck down with his staff.
As a result, countless golden energies dissipated, and Li Hu coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.
"The Golden Core cultivators in the north are still too stingy. They know they're attacking a grotto-heaven guarded by a servant deity, yet they don't even prepare any means for you—"
A voice filled with laughter reached Li Hu's ears, and his heart sank even further: The Divine Servant—it was so.
He gave a bitter smile: "A defeated general only seeks a swift death—do you know the name of your esteemed deity?"
"My name is—Xu Ming Xuan Sha Tu Bo!"
Li Hu only heard a dignified reply before plunging into utter darkness—
