Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

”This is the Ink Jade Disc. Place the personal belongings of the person you want to locate into the disc and infuse it with energy. By following the guidance of the Ink Jade Disc, you will be able to find the person’s whereabouts.”

The man took out a palm-sized item resembling a compass and spoke.

”Thank you.”

”How do we begin?”

Pei Xuan received the Ink Jade Disc and asked calmly.

”The ritual requires time to prepare. You can go fulfill your own desires first and then come back for the ritual initiation.”

”When the time comes, I’m sure you’ll feel fortunate for your choice,” the man said plainly.

”Let’s hope so.”

Pei Xuan replied indifferently.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, the man called out to Pei Xuan again.

”Take this. If you encounter danger, you can place it in your heart and offer the blood from your heart to summon the Mother of Pain.”

The man took out a blood-red lotus made of special charm paper and handed it over to Pei Xuan.

Pei Xuan hesitated for a second before taking the blood lotus and tucking it into his chest.

After Pei Xuan left, a young man dressed in ritual attire emerged from a small side door, looking at Pei Xuan’s back with some confusion.

”Sir, is it worth using up an Ink Jade Disc just to win over this person?” the young man asked perplexedly.

The Ink Jade Disc is a magical artifact of immense value, though it’s a one-time use item, activated only for a month’s duration.

Yet, it remains extremely precious.

”He is someone favored by Lord Demon God. Do you think it’s worth it?” the man said calmly.

People are born different.

Some are born with unique talents or fates, which are most welcomed by many Demon Gods.

If martial artists with such special destinies grow up, there is a slight hope they might be cultivated into a Demon God General.

...

Nightfall.

A faint mist began to rise in the mountain forest, and beasts that prefer nighttime activity started moving.

The distant forest echoed with the roars of demon puppets.

Whoosh~~

Whoosh whoosh~~

Lin Zheyu swiftly dashed through the forest, the gale whistling past his ears.

Having traveled for almost a day, he seemed to be moving further away from Wuling City.

In search of powerful demon puppets, Lin Zheyu ventured deep into the forest, slaying two demon puppets at the Huajin level but nothing more.

Besides Huajin level demon puppets, he also found a ferocious beast of the same level.

As for those above the Peak of Transforming Force, whether demon puppets or beasts, he had yet to encounter them.

”Let’s rest here for the night,”

Lin Zheyu arrived at a concealed cave, planning to stay temporarily for the night.

He discovered this cave by chance during the day, and inside lay the corpse of a massive beast, precisely the Huajin level beast he had slain earlier.

Crackle~~

Soon, a bonfire rose steadily in the cave.

The water in the branches burst open under the flames.

Lin Zheyu used a branch to skewer beast meat, slowly roasting it over the fire, occasionally sprinkling some spices.

The mouth-watering aroma of roasted meat permeated the air.

”It’s been a long time since I grilled meat outdoors myself. I wonder how that little guy Xiaohei is doing now,” Lin Zheyu mused to himself.

His left hand held the branch skewering the beast meat, while his right hand gripped the knife’s handle.

This blade was a treasured sword he selected from the armory during his time at the main sect.

Named Azure Sky Blade, it was a broad-backed heavy sword forged from rare metals by top craftsmen, incredibly sharp.

Against demon puppets and even demons, using a blade is much more convenient than fists.

Roar!

Roar roar!

As night fell, demon puppets hidden deep in the mountains began to emerge.

Battles and roars sounded intermittently.

While roasting meat, Lin Zheyu remained vigilant of his surroundings, occasionally checking the data in his consciousness.

[Heavenly Dao rewards the diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 8

Skills:

Turtle Breath True Skill (Sixth Layer 0%)

Blood Burning Saber Skill (Third Layer 18%)

Sacred Inference Spirit Skill (Second Layer 0%)

Primordial Infinite True Skill (First Layer 23%)

During those days at the main sect, he hadn’t tried to break through his limits, and his Source Power remained at eight units.

However, both the Primordial Infinite True Skill and the Sacred Inference Spirit Skill made considerable progress.

Primordial Infinite True Skill was akin to Infinite Jade Waves True Skill, and in less than five days, Lin Zheyu had transformed Infinite Jade Waves True Skill into Primordial Infinite True Skill.

The progress was directly boosted to the First Layer, reaching a 23% progress.

”The knife skills are the strongest among the supporting martial skills for Primordial Infinite True Skill. I should focus on saber skills in the future.”

”Fist skills and palm skills as supporting attack methods.”

Lin Zheyu contemplated the data in his consciousness.

Primordial Infinite True Skill, besides the main cultivation skill, also had complementary martial skills, including Infinite Heaven-Flipping Palm, Infinite Soul Shattering Blade, Infinite Mountain-Breaking Fist, among others.

The strongest of these was Infinite Soul Shattering Blade, also known as Soul Shattering Slash.

After cultivating Primordial Infinite True Skill, Lin Zheyu could train in more martial skills beyond these, including those from the Eight Divisions.

For instance, the Heaven-Breaking Tyrant Flash he previously obtained from Mr. Yang.

However, compared to the martial skills provided by Primordial Infinite True Skill, these were relatively inferior.

”It’s a pity the second layer of Sacred Inference Spirit Skill can’t be cultivated for now.”

Lin Zheyu regretted.

Sacred Inference Spirit Skill comprises two layers.

He previously cultivated the first layer.

Only Martial Artists at the Huajin Level can cultivate the second layer.

While nurturing and strengthening the spirit and soul with physical Qi blood, applying the true force to further temper the spirit and soul, making them more solidified.

Time slowly passed.
