Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!

The Minor Pure Yang Skill, which evolved from the "Supreme Spiritual Pure Yang Root-Source Taoist Scripture," was certainly ambitiously conceived. However, after Yi Chen pushed it to the ninth layer of True Pure Yang Skill, he was already vaguely aware of the existence of a ceiling.

The tenth layer of True Pure Yang Skill required 3,600 Deep Red Points.

Moving beyond that, it was still unknown how many Deep Red Points would be needed to fill this massive pit.

Therefore.

Confronted with new circumstances and new tasks, one must adopt a new perspective and new measures. Explore more adventures at empire

.....

New methods, new results, new heights, new momentum, new vitality (one hundred words omitted here...).

It's necessary to develop a new playstyle.

In light of the current situation, where extrapolating the True Pure Yang Skill requires an exorbitant amount of Deep Red Points, clashing head-on is no longer cost-effective.

Thus, Yi Chen had already decided to exert effort in the blue-ocean market and carve out a completely new track.

Through qualitative and quantitative supplementary output, cultivate an entirely new business landscape.

Find a handle in niche areas and achieve ecosystem nourishment through refined operations.

Seek new growth points amidst the huge expenses.

Putting it in human terms, this means:

The cost-performance ratio of clashing with the True Pure Yang Skill isn't cutting it anymore. To clash up to the realm of a True Monarch in the Nine Stages of True Person Realm, who knows how many Deep Red Points that would take.

Hence, while trees die when moved, people thrive.

To be human, one must both bow their head to the road and also look up at the sky.

Across the world with its three mountains and six teachings, the five great sword cultivation sects, the twelve clans, the nine great families, one royal dynasty.

All of them have cultivation techniques that, like the Minor Pure Yang Skill, evolved from their highest scriptures and were conceived with lofty intentions.

Yi Chen could "borrow" some and critique them.

The stone from other mountains can be used to polish jade.

Even if not to practice, broadening one's horizon is also good.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Of course, only the finest. Those commonplace martial arts don't appeal to Yi Chen, as they're too lowly conceived. A bunch of trash, no matter how much you extrapolate, remains trash. Apart from wasting his Deep Red Points, it's completely useless.

For example, this time Yi Chen's destination was Dragon Tiger Mountain's "Dragon Tiger Embracing the Golden Core Great True Qi," which is a simplification of "Taiyi Dragon Tiger Commanding True Seal Divine Technique." He was very interested in it.

He wondered if "True Pure Yang Skill" and "Dragon Tiger Embracing the Golden Core Great True Qi" could be mixed together.

"True Pure Yang Dragon Tiger Golden Core Great True Qi"?

It sounded rather powerful.

"The Taoism of Dragon Tiger Mountain is also characterized by its fierce and powerful style, which is boundless in might. It seems that pairing it with the Pure Yang foundation I've previously established only serves to complement each other, with no conflict."

"This cultivation technique seems predestined for me."

"I have traveled thousands of miles, across provinces and prefectures, to return the relic of the old Heavenly Master."

"And I'm not even looking at their 'Taiyi Dragon Tiger Commanding True Seal Divine Technique,' just requesting to glance over what they use to lay the foundations for their common disciples, 'Dragon Tiger Embracing the Golden Core Great True Qi.' That's not too much to ask, right?"

"I won't spread it; I'll just contemplate it on my own to enhance my accumulation."

While on his way and envisioning the future, Yi Chen couldn't help but feel excited.

With his unparalleled wisdom.

With his lifetime of martial arts.

With the insights of his life.

To fiercely burst out and obtain gold coins from the major sects of the three mountains and six teachings, selecting the best to practice. He, Taoist Yi Chengzi, had a promising future ahead.

By taking the strengths of numerous schools and melding them with Deep Red Points, he believed his path to True Monarch would be much easier.

"Hehehe."

"In the path of cultivation technique, I, the poor Taoist, truly am --"

"Far ahead, far ahead indeed~"

"Once I take the True Pure Yang Skill as my foundation and fuse the essences of various supreme techniques from different schools, continuously refining and discarding the chaff to keep the grain, who in the world then could stop me?"

"I, Taoist Yi Chengzi, will surely grasp my own destiny."

The more Yi Chen thought about it, the more excited he became, his steps growing brisker, wishing he could arrive at Dragon Tiger Mountain immediately.

The ninth layer of the True Pure Yang Skill requires one thousand and six hundred Deep Red Points.

The tenth layer of the True Pure Yang Skill would need three thousand and six Deep Red Points.

As for the eleventh layer, that would cost ten thousand.

This is practically like using a water pump to drain his blood.

Just thinking about it makes one's liver tremble.

Seeking innovation and change is imperative.

He must stand on the shoulders of those who came before to see further.

"However, in the future should I follow the path of the ultimate yang or the integration of yin and yang?"

Yi Chen shook his head, dispelling the messy thoughts in his mind and focused on making his way.

Regardless, he had to get his hands on the "Dragon Tiger Embrace Golden Elixir True Technique", comprehend it, and try out its variations.

Furthermore, he needed to secure the legal authorization from Dragon Tiger Mountain, hehe.

To avoid others settling scores after the autumn harvest and to give himself an additional layer of insurance.

Although it was somewhat underhanded to demand to view the "Dragon Tiger Embrace Golden Elixir True Technique" from Dragon Tiger Mountain by taking advantage of their kindness.

Yet in the initial stage of accumulating capital, using some low-level means was unavoidable.

If nothing else, after he attained the position of a True Monarch, he would repay them a favor.

As long as he succeeded in this path, the divine techniques and exceptional skills of the world's great sects would all become his wings.

However, he couldn't just learn anything recklessly; he needed to make good discriminations to avoid any conflicts that could corrupt his Dao foundation. Some he would learn simply to broaden his horizons.

Once his mind was set, Yi Chen had no more distractions and strode forward confidently.

He even quashed the thought of upgrading his "Yin Yang Cave Divine Pupil Technique" to the sixth layer.

He needed to save up a wave of Deep Red Points; good steel should be used for the blade's edge.

What would it be if used on the shaft of the halberd?

Hurrying along the mountain paths, ten days passed in this manner.

On the tenth day at noon, a city much more magnificent than Longjiang Prefecture emerged on the distant horizon.

The Da Yue Dynasty divided its administrative regions based on geography and natural features.

Starting from the smallest to the largest, they are arranged as county, prefecture, circuit, and country.

Divided into two capitals and thirteen circuits.

Wujang Prefecture is the second-largest city within the Jiangbei Circuit and is particularly prosperous.

As for the two capitals, one of them is the Great Capital, which is also the current capital of the Da Yue Dynasty, where Yi Chen's master, Bai Yunzi, wanted him to deliver a letter.

Yi Chen racked his brain but could not understand how his master, Bai Yunzi, got involved with Piao Xue, the abbess of the Water Moon Convent in the Great Capital, let alone why he mysteriously instructed him to deliver his ashes and a letter there.

And he wasn't allowed to look; that was the most important part.

Speaking in riddles, shrouded in mystery, Bai Yunzi had no idea how much torment it was for someone living in a melon patch to be surrounded by melons yet unable to eat any.

Aside from the Great Capital, the other capital is known as the Supreme Capital.

The Supreme Capital was the capital of the previous dynasty, strategically located and rich in resources, equally as prosperous.

Both the Supreme Capital and the Great Capital are the most elite cities of the whole Da Yue, for example, the headquarters of the Zhen An Division in the Great Capital is suspended in the sky by a great formation, making the entire city incredibly magnificent, akin to a fairyland on earth.

The walls of Wujang Prefecture were exactly forty-nine meters tall, neither more nor less, immensely majestic and spectacular.

It is a super-metropolis with a population of over one million people.

Divided into the outer city and the inner city.

The outer city is where the common people reside.

The inner city is where officials, nobles, and cultivators live.

Yi Chen had done his research in Longjiang Prefecture and heard that within Wujang Prefecture, there was a place dedicated to hosting cultivators, the Kunxiu…

But it operates on an invitation-only basis and is not open to the public.

Customized services divided into thirteen floors, not open to non-experts, and not accessible without an introduction from regular customers.

It is said that only experts of the True Person Realm can enter the ninth floor and above.

Just hearing about it made it sound impressive, inciting an urge though unreachable, yet still yearned for.
