Chapter 58 Enlightenment
"I need to do two things right now... First, find a good martial art! Second, find that swordsman. My master is probably dead. I need to avenge him!"
After Fang Xian moved the magic power, he ate some dry food and treated his injuries, thinking secretly in his heart.
What he practiced, no, he didn't practice any technique at all!
His master, the wandering Taoist, got the legacy of a wandering cultivator by chance. The legacy contained two 'Tongfa Pills', which after taking could help one cultivate magical powers and enter the threshold of 'Yanfa'.
The Taoist Youfang swallowed one himself, and later accepted Zhou Yuan as his disciple and gave him another one, and that was it.
As for how to cultivate in the future? How to break through the realm and upgrade to "Talisman Seed"? He was completely in the dark. He simply relied on transferring mana and a few spells to survive in the secular world.
Most of the independent practitioners of unconventional ways end up like wandering Taoists, with no end in sight.
Fang Xian certainly didn't want to do so, but his family knew his own business. With his aptitude and foundation, even if he was willing to break up his magic power and start over, no famous sect would be willing to accept him!
"The second thing is revenge... In order to refine the 'Five Yin Pocket', Master said before that he would go to the city to find a wealthy family to 'borrow' some materials. He was afraid that he would offend people who practice cultivation... Later, he found out that there was a little thief like me waiting in the ruined temple, so he sent people to eliminate the evil..."
"I can't defeat a cultivator for now, but I can find a chance to secretly chop off the swordsman's head without much problem..."
Fang Xian stroked the talisman paper in his hand and made up his mind.
These talisman papers have been refined with magical power and are excellent materials for making talismans and flying swords. They are even better than the talisman papers I specially made in my previous life!
Once successful, the power is almost comparable to that of a second-level wooden sword.
Combined with his own magic power, I'm afraid he has the strength of the peak blood-forged steel sword in his previous life!
After all, the power of sword-wielding techniques driven by magic power is certainly not comparable to that of a grandmaster's forced performance.
Once you enter the door of spiritual practice, the difference between you and the secular world is like heaven and earth.
Of course, this sword-controlling technique comes from a different world, but the rules of the two worlds are similar, so you can use it after getting familiar with it and making a few changes.
"Martial arts... Martial arts... Alas... If it were so easy to obtain, there wouldn't be so many casual cultivators struggling so hard..."
After thinking it through, Fang Xian sighed.
His physical aptitude and luck were average, and he had entered a side sect, so he could not be appreciated by the orthodox Xuanmen.
Even the sword immortals and wandering immortals from the same side sect may not look up to him.
As for exploring ruins or planning for the legacy of predecessors, it is very rare to not mention these.
Even if he had, he couldn't compete with those masters of 'Talismans' and 'Divine Powers'.
Even if you are lucky and get one or two, there are countless masters in this world who know how to calculate. Maybe they will be found out within two days and become someone else's "external skills", "merit", "opportunity" and so on, and be cut off with a sword.
In short, how can it be described in one word?
After figuring this out, Fang Xian felt disappointed.
"My origin is strange. I dare to go out and jump around. If I stand out too much, I might be figured out by some powerful person and fall into all kinds of calculations, and finally become someone's pawn... The most urgent thing is to have a spell to cover up my origins, and a basic technique... I can't find this outside, so I can only rely on myself."
Fang Xian took a deep breath, and his magic power surged and injected into the attribute column.
Even his most crude magic power was ten times better than his previous Hunyuan Qi. It filled the attribute bar in an instant and initiated an epiphany.
"I hope that comprehending the "Dongxuan Secret Record" will help me get what I want..."
Fang Xian closed his eyes and fell into a state of enlightenment.
The comprehension of "Dongxuan Secret Record" requires opportunity, and more importantly, one needs to be wary of danger! After each comprehension, the next comprehension becomes much more difficult than before!
Fortunately, he has already entered the Tao and is a master of "Yan Fa", one level beyond the grand master.
A chance for epiphany so as not to have your mental defenses broken.
…
Hiss!
Countless whispers came into Fang Xian's ears, and his mind became hazy. In a trance, he seemed to see the essence of this world...
If you cut open the real outer layer, you will find countless dense silk threads inside, weaving a big web of cause and effect and opportunity.
"Under the flow of destiny, no one, even if they become immortals, can escape this big net. This is the way of heaven in this world!"
"Destiny and chance...are almost predetermined by heaven and difficult to change."
"Those who practice cultivation and want to transcend tribulations and become immortals must go through many tribulations..."
"If I stay in this world for too long, I will also fall into the law and be gradually 'assimilated'!"
Fang Xian felt a chill down his spine: "Unless... I can suppress my own destiny and not reveal the secrets. This requires a very high level of Taoism. I can only do it with secret methods..."
With this enlightenment, the strange text in "Dongxuan Mi Lu" became partially understandable.
Although it has only seven pages, the text on it is neither dragon and phoenix seals nor oracle bone inscriptions. It can be continuously combined on its own, carrying different meanings and evolving infinite information.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Fang Xian came to his senses and pressed his temple, feeling a stinging pain.
His head was dizzy and he couldn't think too much at this moment, so he started to sit cross-legged and meditate.
After recovering, he discovered that there were two more methods in his sea of consciousness.
The method originally had no name, but Fang Xian gave it a name himself.
One is the "Turtle Blood Gua" which can calculate the great mysteries of heaven and one's own fortune and misfortune!
This method is evil and bloody. Every time you do divination, you must kill a spirit turtle and use its bones to do the divination. If you don't have a spirit turtle, other rare and exotic animals or even human bones can make do.
The other one was even more bizarre, causing Fang Xian's breathing to become slightly heavier.
——"The Secret Ritual of Changing Destiny and Residence"!
Fate is destiny, and fate is fate. In this world, everyone has a destiny and luck, which determines their fate. Some people work hard all their lives like ants, while others can embark on the path of cultivation, and some can even become immortals! This is a different fate!
The 'Secret Ritual of Changing Fate and Residence' can take away the fate, destiny, and even aptitude and fate of the other party!
However, a person can only use it once in their lifetime, and if they want to take a life , they must kill it!
"The magic in the Dongxuan Secret Record seems to be so evil and cruel... But this Secret Ceremony of Changing Life and Residence can be said to be a way to change fate. It can fundamentally solve my background and aptitude problems..."
"It's strange. Why did I only have a little understanding of martial arts in the last world, but there is such a secret method in this world? Could it be that due to the difference in the world, the secret record will also change? What kind of realm is this?"
"That 'Starry Sky Eye' is probably even more terrifying than the legendary immortals and supreme demons..."
"However, the Dongxuan Secret Record seems to only have 'techniques' but no 'methods'!"
Technique is the function, Dharma is the essence. The so-called Dharma is the fundamental method of practice.
"I can't comprehend it this time. I haven't reached the 'Talisman Seed' realm yet. It's best not to continue comprehending it. Otherwise, I won't be able to suppress it and it will be easy to go astray..."
Fang Xian quickly made a decision: "I can only look for a way to practice cultivation elsewhere."
It has to be said that the techniques he comprehended from the "Dongxuan Secret Records" scared him a little.
Compared to the bloody, evil and brutal magic skills, the authentic and authentic Xuanmen mental method of this world is his first choice.
