Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

After observing for a while, he no longer paid attention to Lin Zheyu and instead began focusing on exterminating the demon army outside.

...

This invasion of the Demon Realm ended quickly.

The massive crisis Lin Zheyu was worried about did not occur.

The battle concluded.

Lin Zheyu and Wa Zhengtian together guarded the first line of the Array defense, while the heavily exhausted Je Haomiao and Zong Linjing returned first to recuperate.

Another dozen days passed, and Je Haomiao came to replace Lin Zheyu.

Returning to the courtyard where he lived.

Activating the protective Array of the courtyard.

Took out the Array Disc and deployed an additional layer of Array.

After confirming that he wouldn’t be spied on in secret, Lin Zheyu finally took out the Primordial Pool.

Knowing that someone had been secretly watching him, while guarding the Array Hub, he only cultivated every few days, broke through his limits, and accumulated Source Power.

He did not engage in any other special actions.

After the task ended, and upon returning to his dwelling courtyard, Lin Zheyu took out the Primordial Pool to begin attempting enhancement.

In the void inside the Primordial Pool.

Here stored a vast, violent, chaotic energy of rules, which Lin Zheyu had collected from the node void.

To store such a large amount of violent energy, he had consumed a significant amount of Chaos Elemental Power over time.

However, compared to the large quantity of energy soon to be consumed to elevate the Chaos True Skill, this bit of consumption seemed somewhat insignificant.

”Let’s begin!”

Lin Zheyu exhaled softly and whispered.

He closed his eyes.

His thoughts transmitted: ’Use twenty units of Source Power to cultivate Chaos True Skill.’

In an instant.

Vast mysterious energy surged out, engulfing the Energy in the Little Demon Lake, and entered Lin Zheyu’s body.

Under the effect of the mysterious energy, the power of Qi Blood was infused into the Lifebound Witch Pattern, and subsequently, a thick golden energy was birthed from within the Lifebound Witch Pattern.

This energy, under Lin Zheyu’s control, began to circulate along a special Cultivation Technique path.

The operation path of the Cultivation Technique was a unique cultivation method created by Lin Zheyu through blending the Eight Desolates World-Suppressing Skill and Martial Arts Skill.

The operation was somewhat peculiar; each time it circulated the Grand Circulation, it brought immense pain, causing him to involuntarily twist his face and look ferocious.

This was the method Lin Zheyu researched for integrating Witch Tao and Martial Dao.

Using the Lifebound Witch Pattern as a medium, utilizing Martial Dao Qi Blood as energy, it nurtures a brand new energy, replacing the function of Earth Elemental Power.

However.

Before this, one must first undergo the body tempering with Spirit Medicine from the first three layers of Chaos True Skill, altering the body physique to allow Qi Blood to carry a hint of Witch Tao true body traits.

Clang~~

A thick shackle solidified and instantly tightened, emitting a crisp resonating sound.

A few breaths later.

Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes, filled with bloodshot veins.

He exhaled a long breath, his figure swayed slightly, and in an instant disappeared from the spot, reappearing in another space.

This space was specifically for his cultivation, free from any other energy interference.

Lin Zheyu sat cross-legged in the void, flipped his right hand, and a bone talisman appeared in his palm.

His Spiritual Sense penetrated into the bone talisman, continuing to comprehend the Witch Race knowledge scripture.

Time flew by.

Over two months passed.

During these more than two months, the station was as peaceful as Lin Zheyu had predicted, with no further invasions by the Demon Realm.

During this time, Lin Zheyu frantically enhanced his strength.

In the void inside the Primordial Pool.

Lin Zheyu closed his eyes, sitting cross-legged in the pitch-black, violent, chaotic, yet exuding an evil and foul aura’s Energy Lake.

From his body, a vast golden Qi Blood emitted, forming into a gigantic Qi Blood Dragon, guarding at the side.

Simultaneously, six thick golden shackles condensed out, tightly embedded into the flesh.

The six shackles swayed, emitting a crisp resonating sound, with the sound containing terrifying sealing power, tightly binding Lin Zheyu’s body, suppressing his advancement.

However.

Faced with this formidable sealing power, Lin Zheyu’s aura still climbed at a shocking speed continually.

His aura grew increasingly terrifying, within the flesh and blood body sitting cross-legged, contained a terrifying power that made one’s heart pound with fear.

In the chest cavity, the beating heart emitted sounds akin to echoes of the Great Tao resounding between heaven and earth.

The vast power of Qi Blood was infused into the Lifebound Witch Pattern, birthing an even stronger energy, carrying a faintly similar aura to Witch Race Source Power.

Simultaneously.

The Lifebound Witch Pattern also underwent some changes.

As Chaos True Skill reached Perfection in cultivation, Witch Tao and Martial Dao finally achieved a preliminary fusion, and in the Witch Pattern, it also integrated with the foundational rule textures belonging to Martial Arts Divine Pattern.

Although it was not much, just a tiny bit, seemed somewhat insignificant.

However, this is undoubtedly a good beginning, a starting point for the fusion of Witch Tao and Martial Dao.

A few breaths later.

Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes, bloodshot veins filled his eyes, yet his gaze was unprecedentedly bright.

Finally, he had succeeded!

Lin Zheyu felt a stir in his heart, looking at the data in his consciousness.

[Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 848

Skills:

Heavenly Deceit Skill 4.0 (Not yet grasped)

Seven Extremes Blade (Seventh Layer: 100%)

Shrinking the Ground to an Inch (Third Layer: 100%)

Martial Arts Divine Pattern Secret Canon 11.0 (Not yet grasped)

After such a long period of cultivation.

Constantly comprehending the Witch Race knowledge scripture left in the bone talisman.

Consuming nearly eight hundred units of Source Power to iteratively optimize Chaos True Skill.

Lin Zheyu finally, cultivated to Perfection this initial tentative fusion technique of Witch Tao and Martial Dao.

Although the process of cultivation was extremely painful.

Although, without the aid of Source Power, in reality, he simply couldn’t cultivate.

But regardless, he succeeded.

With the fusion technique of Witch and Martial—Chaos True Skill as a foundation.

In the future, thoroughly integrating Witch Tao into Martial Dao and carving out a unique path of Martial Dao would become more accessible.

”Next is to break free from the second shackle.”

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

He had a premonition.

After breaking free from the second shackle, with one less shackle binding his soul, his spirit and soul would undergo a significant transformation.

Simultaneously.

The golden Celestial Eye deep within the Sea of Consciousness will likely benefit from this transformation of the soul, undergoing evolution.

Whew~~~~

Lin Zheyu exhaled a long turbid breath.

He did not rush to break free from the second shackle but rather calmed his mind and began to regain his state.

The recent cultivation had taken a considerable toll on his spirit; the challenge of breaking free from the second shackle far exceeded that of the first...

Lin Zheyu must make comprehensive preparations, regain his strength, and strive to succeed in one attempt.
