Ye Xuan was stunned. He reached out to take the book from Ninth Uncle. When he was about to read it, the system notification sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Special item found: Shang Qing Secret Scripture (Incomplete)! "
"Shang Qing Secret Scripture?" Ye Xuan was struck dumb when he saw the quaint book that Ninth Uncle had handed to him. But he soon realized that the so-called Shang Qing Secret Tome should be the Maoshan Secret Techniques in his hand. However, the original name of the Maoshan Secret Tome was Shang Qing Secret Tome, and the Maoshan Secret Techniques in his hand was only an incomplete copy.
"Ninth Uncle, how can I do this?" Ye Xuan came to his senses and looked at Ninth Uncle.
"What's so great about that? While my Maoshan Secret Arts is a secret tome of the Maoshan Sect, the world we live in now is one where the Heavenly Path has yet to be seen. Chaos is rife in the world, and demons and ghosts roam the world, wreaking havoc on the people. Every bit of power the orthodox path has would mean a bit more peace for the common people. I see that you are an upright and chivalrous person. You don't know this village, but you came to help when you heard the Horse Gang wanted to attack the village. How can I be reluctant to give you a book? "Ninth Uncle waved his hand and said.
Hearing Uncle Jiu's words, even though Ye Xuan felt that he was already very thick-skinned, his face still heated up, and a blush flashed across his face. Impressively, he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Jiu, you flatter me. I was just doing what I thought I should do."
"You don't have to be so modest. I just hope that you can kill more demons and protect the Righteous Path if you succeed in learning it in the future. In this way, my efforts will not be in vain!" Ninth Uncle said with a serious face.
"Then I will accept it. Thank you, Ninth Uncle!" Hearing Ninth Uncle's words, Ye Xuan no longer refused. After all, he really needed this book to complete the system's task. But he still stood up and bowed to Ninth Uncle respectfully.
"Don't stand on ceremony!" Ye Xuan bowed to Ninth Uncle. Ninth Uncle did not avoid it. Instead, he sat and waited for Ye Xuan to finish bowing to him. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go back to your room and have a look. If there are any problems, just ask me! "
"Alright, then I'll go back to my room first. Farewell, Ninth Uncle!" Ye Xuan stood up, cupped his hands, and walked out with the Secret Techniques of Maoshan in hand.
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining Ninth Uncle's favor. You have received the 'Maoshan Secret Technique' from Ninth Uncle. Quest completion reward: 3,000 Cultivation Points! "After leaving Ninth Uncle's room, After leaving Ninth Uncle's room, Ye Xuan saw Ah Qiang dressed up in a strange way and smeared pot ashes on his body.
On the way back to his room, Ye Xuan saw Ah Qiang dressed up in a strange way and smeared pot ashes on his body. Ye Xuan's mouth twitched. He shook his head and walked back to his room without paying attention to Ah Qiang.
Back in his room, Ye Xuan lit a candle and closed the door. He then sat at the table and opened the book that Ninth Uncle had given him to read.
After reading through the Secret Techniques of Maoshan from beginning to end, Ye Xuan had a general understanding of the Secret Techniques of Maoshan. The book was also known as the Secret Manual of Mao Mountain. It was a secret cultivation method of the Maoshan Sect. It recorded some of the Maoshan Sect's basic spells. There were also some talismans and a cultivation method that was said to be a simplified version of the Shang Qing True Method of the Maoshan Sect.
It was obvious that although the book was called a secret technique, it should be a shortened version. However, judging from the old pages of the book, Ye Xuan did not think that Ninth Uncle had deliberately hidden it from him and gave him the shortened version. Instead, he had only gotten this version.
After skimming through the Secret Techniques of Maoshan, Ye Xuan pondered for a moment and suddenly said in his mind, "Xueyi!"
"Master, what's the matter? Please give me your orders! "Xueyi's voice appeared in Ye Xuan's mind.
"Can you take a look at it for me if I sell this' Secret Arts of Mao Mountain 'to the system store? How many cultivation points will I get? "Ye Xuan asked.
"Master, if you sell the book to the system store, how many cultivation points will you get?" "Master, if you sell the book to the system store, you will get 15000 cultivation points." Xueyi inquired and quickly answered Ye Xuan's question.
Hearing so many cultivation points, Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there a complete version of the Shang Qing Secret Scripture in the system store? How many cultivation points does it cost? "
"The complete version of the Shang Qing Secret Scripture is sold in the system store for one million cultivation points!" Xueyi said faintly.
"What? One million? "Hearing the number Xueyi reported, Ye Xuan was a little shocked." Why does it need so much? "
"Master, the complete version of the Shang Qing Secret Scripture is a cultivation method that allows ordinary people to get rid of their mortal bodies and cultivate to become Earth Immortals." Xueyi revealed another piece of news.
"Earth Immortals? Are there really immortals? What about gods? "Ye Xuan was shocked by Xueyi's words and asked in surprise.
"Master, gods and immortals exist!" Xueyi said.
"Then why are there no immortals in the real world?" Ye Xuan thought for a moment and asked again.
"That's because the Spirit Qi on the earth has dried up for some reason, so whether it's cultivators or immortals, they have all left the earth," Xueyi answered.
After digesting the news he heard from Xueyi, Ye Xuan calmed down and changed the topic. He asked, "Then how far can I cultivate this book of the Mao Mountain Secret Scripture?"
"In theory, if you have enough time and in such an environment, the basic cultivation method in the Mao Mountain Secret Scripture can let you cultivate to the level of Earth Immortals," Xueyi said.
"In theory?" After listening to Xueyi's words, Ye Xuan's eyes twitched. "How long will it take? What if it's in the real world? "
"In the environment you're in now, if you want to cultivate to the level of Earth Immortals with the basic cultivation method in the Mao Mountain Secret Scripture, it will take about 2,800 years. If it's in the real world, it may take ten times more time," Xueyi said calmly.
"2,800 years? Ten times more time, doesn't that mean it will take nearly 30,000 years? Can one really live as long as heaven and be indestructible after becoming an immortal? "Ye Xuan asked.
"Master, it can't. Immortals are also humans and have a limited lifespan. If they don't encounter disasters such as the Deva Decay, an Earth Immortal's lifespan is only 5,000 years," Xueyi said.
"5,000?" Ye Xuan's temples throbbed. He finally understood what Xueyi meant by "if there's enough time". Damn it, even if one cultivated to the level of Earth Immortals, they would only have a lifespan of 5,000 years, and the cultivation time alone would take nearly 30,000 years. No wonder those cultivators and immortals wanted to escape the earth. In the real world, staying was just waiting for death.
"How are the cultivation realms divided?" After waiting for a while, Ye Xuan asked again.
"The cultivation realms of Immortals in the mortal world are divided into four major realms: Qi Refinement, Soul Formation, Void Return, and Dao Integration. Each realm is further divided into four small stages: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and perfected," Xueyi answered one by one.
"How high is Ninth Uncle's cultivation realm now?" Ye Xuan asked.
"Master, Lin Jiu's current cultivation realm is at the perfected middle stage of Qi Refinement. With his cultivation speed, he may advance to the late stage of Qi Refinement in three years," Xueyi said after checking.
Uh! Hearing Xueyi's answer, Ye Xuan was stunned. He originally thought that Ninth Uncle's cultivation realm was already very high, but he didn't expect that his cultivation was still at the bottom of Qi Refinement.
"If …"
Woo! Woo! Woo! — —
Just as Ye Xuan was about to ask more questions, a horn suddenly sounded in the night sky, and the whole Fugui Village suddenly became noisy. Ye Xuan frowned, cut off the conversation with Xueyi, opened the door and ran out. When he reached the hall, he met Ninth Uncle who had also just left his room. He couldn't help but ask, "Ninth Uncle, what happened?"
"This is a distress horn. Someone may have broken into the village. Let's go!" Ninth Uncle looked in the direction of the horn, then moved and ran out of the courtyard.
