Qin Di collected some talisman paper and ink from the Celestial Talisman Pavilion. When he returned home, he first refined 30 pieces of level six immortal talismans in one go and asked Chun Yan to hand them over to the sect. This could be considered as completing the sect's mission of three hundred years.
After that, he divided his time into three parts. One part was used to cultivate the "Weak Water Heart Technique", one part was used to cultivate the "Great Way of Cloud and Water", and the last part was used to enter the Black Emperor Stele to challenge his opponents, in order to hone his water element killing techniques.
The Black Emperor's inheritance, the Weak Water Mental Technique, talked about how to raise the level of Weak Water, and how to comprehend the Three Thousand Dao of Weak Water.
According to the practice of the Black Emperor Palace, after every disciple obtained a drop of Weak Water from the Ancestral Hall, they would use this drop of Weak Water as a primer to separate and refine more Weak Water from the sea at the edge of the Nine Prefectures. First, they would turn this drop of Weak Water into ten drops, a hundred drops, and then the size of a walnut. Then, they would patiently refine and evolve it with their heart, turning it into a fish that would swim in the sea. Using the turbulence of the water, they would comprehend the Great Dao of the Three Thousand Weak Water.
In the Ancestral Master Palace, Qin Di had obtained a lump of Rank Six Weak Water from the Black Emperor's incarnation. This lump of Weak Water was as big as a fist, so it saved him a lot of time.
Even so, he still released this ball of weak water and tempered it in the seawater at the edge of Lizhou.
Ten years later, this ball of weak water could transform at will. It could turn into a water curtain, a shield, a celestial sword, or a swimming fish. It could even turn into a tiny black dragon that was eight inches long and as thick as a finger, and it could fly in the water at high speed!
Qin Di put on the Heavenly Soul Glasses and looked at the waves stirred up by the black dragon to comprehend the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
This was an extremely long process, not something that could be completed in a few hundred years. Because the Three Thousand Ruoshui contained a total of three thousand Heavenly Laws. As long as one could grasp 100 Heavenly Laws, one could advance to the Water Element Zu Xian. One thousand Heavenly Laws could advance to the Jin Xian. Two thousand Heavenly Laws could advance to the Sengoku. Three thousand Heavenly Laws and above could be considered as an Immortal Emperor.
Of course, many powerful Immortal Emperors had mastered more than 3000 heavenly laws. Just as Suiren-Shi had said, if a person who had just stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm was considered to be at the tenth level, then some Immortal Emperors with profound cultivation could reach the fifteenth or sixteenth level. As for people at the Dao Ancestor level, their cultivation might be even higher.
That was why it was said that there was no end to learning. For Qin Di, no matter how much time he had, he had to comprehend the 3,000 Great Daos!
Other than cultivating the "Weak Water Mental Technique", Qin Di also spent a portion of his time pondering the "Great Way of Cloud and Water".
The Grand Dao of Cloud and Water had a total of seven moves, which were Flowing Clouds and Flowing Water, Cleaving Clouds and Shearing Water, Remnant Mountain and Water Remaining, Mountain's End and Water's End, Boiling Water to Ice, Flowers in a Mirror, Moon in Water, and Years Flow Like Water.
If it was analyzed separately, then the first move of the Grand Dao of Cloud and Water, 'Flowing Clouds and Flowing Water', its basic technique was the 'Profound Rippling Steps'. This was a type of footwork that evolved from the 64 hexagrams, and every single step was unimaginable like a heavenly steed moving through the starry sky. The Profound Rippling Steps belonged to the tangible Kung Fu. If it was cultivated to the Immortal Realm, it would become the Profound Rippling Steps. This was a kind of teleportation technique that went with the flow and was ubiquitous.
The Profound Rippling Steps that Duan Yu learned came from the Xiaoyao Sect, and the inheritance of the Xiaoyao Sect came from the Great Emperor Zhenwu. The Great Emperor Zhenwu was Gun, who was the fifth grandson of the Black Emperor Zhuan Xu. Naturally, he had learned the Weak Water Mental Technique, and later stood out and had his own Great Daos. From this, it could be seen that the Profound Rippling Steps that Qin Di practiced were interlinked with Duan Lingbo Steps.
The second, third and fourth moves of the Grand Dao of Cloud and Water were the Cutting Clouds and Cutting Water, the Remaining Mountain and Water, and the End of the Mountain and the End of the Water. These three moves were all offensive techniques, which could turn the fairy water into scissors, or fairy swords, or fairy knives, and cut left and right at an extremely fast speed, cutting from top to bottom, and cutting from top to bottom, to cripple the opponent and put him in a difficult situation.
Qin Di himself practiced the sword formation, so he liked to turn fairy water into fairy swords. If it was just a competition, he only needed to use eight kinds of fifth-level fairy water to form the Eight Trigrams Sword Array. These eight kinds of fairy water came from the Nine Bitterness Sea in the Buddhist Plateau in the Underworld. Qin Di got nine kinds of water from there, and after Gong Gong refined them, they became eight kinds of fifth-level fairy water and a kind of tenth-level Prehistoric Heavy Water.
In times of danger, Qin Di could put the sixth-level Weak Water or the tenth-level Prehistoric Heavy Water into the sword array, and the Eight Trigrams Sword Array would turn into the Nine Palaces Sword Array. With the guidance of the main sword, the killing effect would be enhanced by many times!
The fifth move of the Grand Dao of Cloud and Water was called "Boiling Water to Ice", which was to turn water into ice, and then use the ice as the material to quickly make the Immortal Notes into the Life-Death Notes. If one practiced it to a high level, he could release many Life-Death Notes at the same time to form an immortal array, which would be even more powerful!
Qin Di was a Fairy Talisman Master and an Immortal Array Master, so this move seemed to be specially made for him! He liked this move very much, but it was a pity that he didn't have enough practical experience in this area, so he couldn't make Life-Death Notes casually. He had to spend a lot of time and energy practicing.
The sixth move of the Grand Dao of Cloud and Water was called "Moon in the Water", which was a kind of cloning technique, or a trick to divert the opponent's attention. It could make the opponent lose sight of the position and couldn't attack accurately.
The seventh move of the Grand Dao of Cloud and Water was called "Years Flow Like Water", which was a spiritual sense attack technique. It could dampen the opponent's spirit and make the opponent very depressed, so that the opponent's Qi would not flow smoothly, and the opponent wouldn't be able to attack. They might even become obsessed with it. It was similar to the spiritual sense attack of "A Few Degrees of Red Sunset". If the immortal zither was in his hand, the killing effect would be stronger, which was similar to the "Decadent Sound".
Every time he practiced this move, Qin Di would think of that song, "The blooming flowers in spring, the wind in autumn, and the setting sun in winter, the melancholy young me used to think like this ignorantly. The flowing water takes away the song of the four seasons, and sings for me. I grow up year after year after year …"
Sometimes, even he was obsessed with it.
In order to participate in the Sect Tournament, Qin Di had spent a lot of effort on the Seven Forms of Cloud and Water.
After he had mastered this technique, he placed his identity token under his pillow and sent a wisp of his consciousness into the Black Emperor Stele.
When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was in a Pocket World. The space inside was limited, and there were a total of 18 circular arenas, each about 500 meters in diameter. There was a layer of light outside the arenas, which isolated the arenas. There were many spectators outside the light barrier.
There were 500,000 cultivators in the Black Emperor Palace, and there were simply too many of them. If all of them were to enter the arenas, there wouldn't be enough space. Fortunately, every time one entered the Black Emperor Stele, they had to pay 50 points. Every time they entered, they could only stay inside for 10 days. Moreover, these 50 points could only be used to spectate. If they wanted to spar on the arenas, they had to pay an additional 100 points.
It wasn't easy to earn points in the Black Emperor Palace. For example, Qin Di could only earn 1,000 points by refining a Tier 6 immortal talisman. To many disciples, they might have to work hard outside for two to three years to accumulate 1,000 points. In other words, they could only enter the Black Emperor Stele ten times in two to three years, and they had to complete it within 10 days.
Because of this, many people entered the Black Emperor Stele to spectate. The proportion of people who really wanted to go on the arenas was not high. Every time they went on the arenas, they had to consider whether they had enough points.
