"Clang … clang …"
"Next, I'll explain the main points of Karmaless Skill to you …" He suddenly became more enthusiastic. But his face remained expressionless.
'It's a very ordinary basic training method, but it's the foundation of the subsequent skills. It's simple and important. Let's give it a try first. Let's see how much it can improve my body now,' the thought flashed through Lu Sheng's mind. Then, he slowly closed his eyes and focused all his attention on the button behind Karmaless Skill. He pressed it lightly.
Ninety-nine percent of his inner force was still within the scope of gaseous inner Qi. He had not touched upon liquefied inner Qi at all. Many of the concepts and understanding of inner Qi were still superficial. This was of no help to Lu Sheng at all.
"That's good, that's good. Show me Karmaless Skill." Grand Elder seemed to be a little more enthusiastic.
'Karmaless Skill: Level Four. Special Effect (s): Body Strengthening Level Four, Demonic Telekinesis Level One.'
"Yes, Level Two." Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat. He had already said a little. In fact, he had already reached Level Three and was about to advance to Level Four.
Grand Elder looked at this disciple who had only joined the sect for a few months. He was both delighted and dazed. He suddenly felt a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel.
These days, he had been relying on this to make up for the severe lack of food.
'Hmph!'
He snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"Creak …"
But this did not mean that the distracting thoughts would disappear completely.
Lu Sheng knew what he meant. From the other's reaction, he did not seem to be in a normal situation. He had shown off too quickly.
If one were to say that before his breakthrough, he was an ordinary person who had concealed his Yin Extreme Mode. Now, however, he had some kind of demonic aura about him. Just looking at him from afar was enough to make one's heart flutter with fear.
Standing by the window, he looked out. A large area under the stone wall was gradually being covered by shadows. The red glow on the stone pillars was also gradually dimming.
'Hopefully, the secret skill will lead me in a new direction.' Lu Sheng sensed his current state. 'It's daybreak. I'll go to the Devil's Pool again. It shouldn't take more than a few days to break through to the next level.'
He poured out two pills and popped them into his mouth, chewed them up and swallowed. Lu Sheng resumed his meditative state. He had just leveled up Karmaless Skill and needed some time to rest his body to recover from the internal injuries caused by the breakthrough.
The visualization method of practicing Karmaless Skill was actually to focus all one's mind, purify it, train it, and achieve the effect of eliminating all distracting thoughts.
Devil Intent was a stray thought, which was also within the realm of the mind. Hence, it was similarly controlled by Lu Sheng's Yin Extreme Mode.
Leaning against the entrance of the cave, Lu Sheng gazed at the gray, pouring rain outside. For a moment, his mind wandered.
Lu Sheng closed the window, returned to his bed, sat down cross-legged, and began meditating.
In the blink of an eye, another seven or eight days passed. Lu Sheng had finished his Essence Replenishing Pills. Today, he had to go to the entrance of the cave to wait for someone to deliver them.
Returning from the library, Lu Sheng shut the cave door tightly and heard the bell ringing outside.
"King" Lu Sheng recalled the contents of the manual's introduction, as well as Grand Elder's occasional mention that if one could perfect Karmaless Skill to the level of Perfect Mastery, there would be a small chance of cultivating Devil Will in advance.
In the water, he was as ordinary as before, no different from an ordinary person.
It was the same for inner force. After liquefaction, Lu Sheng found out that many fixed thoughts about inner force were wrong. They were not applicable at all and could only be explored again.
"The fire of will is self-evident. Not bad, not bad!" The Great Elder could tell Lu Sheng's current state at a glance. This was already the most ideal level for the sect's disciples.
Now, he could already see that Fei Huangzi's heart was not in the right place. He had misjudged him back then.
'Raise Karmaless Skill to Level Four.'
This was the effect of Yin Extreme Mode. The powerful Yin Extreme Mode was able to restrain all mental energy, as well as all related physiological reactions.
Four hours passed quickly. When Lu Sheng came out from the cave, he was surprised to see Fei Huangzi leaning against the wall at the top of the stone steps.
Lu Sheng sat upright and began to carefully listen to his morning lesson alone.
He took out a small box from under his bed. This was the elixir that he had asked his subordinates to deliver to him, the Essence Replenishing Elixir.
It was night again.
Just like modern science. There were many theorems in microscopic and macroscopic physics that could not be applied to each other.
Which disciple had achieved such a quick breakthrough? He couldn't remember. That was a long, long time ago.
He frowned slightly, but knew that this was to be expected. His body was too strong. For him, it was already good enough that a secret skill like Karmaless Skill could strengthen him.
But just from the concept of inner force, it would be very difficult to achieve a breakthrough to the level of Divine Weapons and Devil Blades … the chances were very slim. After all, no matter how hard a skill was derived, there would always be a limit to it. He had gradually come to realize this. Even the Modifier could not do anything about it.
He had also wondered if Lu Sheng was a spy sent by other sects. Lu Sheng was only acting this way to gain his trust. But this possibility was immediately rejected by him.
In other words, he was really here for the books. After all, it would be very easy for him to join any of the major sects.
These stray thoughts were present in everyone. They could not possibly disappear. They could arise at any time, and they could also disappear at any time.
'The stray thoughts that have been eliminated will be forced out of the main body's thoughts. But this does not mean that they will disappear. If the mind is strong enough, the stray thoughts and evil thoughts will attach themselves to the cultivator and naturally form a Spirit Field that can affect the mind and cause hallucinations. '
Naturally, this little thing from the sect was far from enough. That was why this Essence Augmentation Pill was created.
Soon, the frame became clear again. The contents inside had changed as well.
The other disciple, He Xiangzi, was honest and dull, even to the point of being a little silly. Her trust and loyalty to the sect was definitely top notch. But her aptitude was really … After 19 years of painstaking cultivation, she was still stuck at Level 9 of Karmaless Skill.
…
But now, when a true disciple with outstanding aptitude stood before him, Grand Elder suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of surrealism. It was as if a welcome rain had fallen from the sky.
At this thought, Grand Elder took a deep breath.
'Aquarius Qi is more or less recovered. Head Elder has also explained the next two levels clearly. I can start trying to upgrade Karmaless Skill now.' Following the old rules, he focused his mind and held his breath, beginning to visualize the Yin Flame Human Face.
'Is this the effect of the Spirit Field? It seems to be similar to the psychic contagious hypnosis of the legends. 'With a thought, the effects of the Demonic Will quickly faded.
And the big sects did not care about the Prime Devil Sect's foundation at all. They could easily find two, three, or even more Prime Devil Sect headquarters. But it was not so easy to find disciples with good aptitude. Each and every one of them could become the strongest of the top sects in the future.
As Lu Sheng visualized the Yin Flame human face, he moved his body. The fine muscles on his body began to tremble slowly. He deliberately controlled the trembling so that it was not much different from when he was at Level 2.
'I'm alright. I don't feel any discomfort.'
"Do you … feel any discomfort?" Karmaless Skill required Devil Qi to stimulate the body's glabella. If the frequency was too high in a short period of time, the body would not be able to handle it. That was why he had asked.
But considering that the skill manual had a total of nine levels, he said that he had already reached Level 2.
The little square frame suddenly blurred. Lu Sheng could clearly feel that a portion of Aquarius Qi in his body had disappeared by about one-sixth of it.
"Homesick?" He Xiangzi had appeared behind Lu Sheng and was leaning against the wall at the entrance of the cave.
Through the sect's special messenger bird, he could easily send letters to the Crimson Whale Sect disciples. And learn about the situation in White Bell City.
Lu Sheng clicked on the Modify button with familiarity. The entire Modifier trembled slightly. Behind most of the skill manuals in the frame, buttons for upgrades appeared.
"Swish!"
According to Lu Sheng's own set of theories and logic …
Very quickly, he found the newly appeared Karmaless Skill.
The light blue frame of the Modifier appeared in response and floated before his eyes.
With such aptitude … the reason he could come to the Prime Devil Sect was probably because the Prime Devil Sect had a much longer library than most other sects.
'Also, the strength of my body seems to be more integrated. There's a slight increase in my defense … but it's still negligible. '
So-called Devil Thoughts were actually distracting thoughts, desires, and other scattered thoughts.
But there was nothing he could do about it. Some inner Qi behaved differently under different conditions. Many rules and phenomena could only be revealed after liquefaction. That was how Lu Sheng deduced some of the characteristics and nature of inner Qi.
Many of the natural characteristics of liquefied inner Qi were not even known by the creator. Instead, he used his own erroneous thinking to deduce and create a seemingly powerful skill manual.
'This is Devil Thoughts.' Lu Sheng opened his eyes, stood up, and walked to the basin in the corner. He looked at himself in the reflection of the water surface.
Grand Elder's mouth was slightly agape, and he could not speak for a long time.
In the days that followed.
If he were a spy from another sect, disciples like Lu Sheng would be kept hidden in small sects, afraid that he would be tricked into running away.
Nowadays, it was very difficult to find any martial arts that could be of great help to him. That was why Lu Sheng had pinned his hopes on the secret arts of the Noble Families. If even the secret arts did not work, then he could only honestly accumulate inner force, search for Yin Qi, and continue to deduce and see if he could forge an unprecedented path in inner force.
Lu Sheng still attended his morning lessons on time, and went to the Devil's Pool to cleanse his body. Grand Elder also generously explained the subsequent parts of Karmaless Skill to Lu Sheng.
'He can break through to the second level in a few months. Other disciples would need at least a year. This aptitude is not bad … but I still have to observe him. If the legacy of the sect is entrusted to the wrong person … 'Grand Elder suddenly thought of the other two disciples.
And he was quite pleased with Lu Sheng's performance. Lu Sheng could easily understand and remember everything he said.
Morning class, reading books, cultivating, resting, morning class, reading books, cultivating … Just like that, the cycle repeated itself.
Lu Sheng watched Fei Huangzi depart into the distance. Soon, he disappeared into the darkness.
He had painstakingly searched for disciples with good aptitude, hoping that they could pass on the legacy of the sect in his final days. That way, even if the headquarters changed hands and the sect became extinct, the legacy could still be passed on.
Lu Sheng's Aquarius Qi was quickly replenished. He could once again upgrade Karmaless Skill.
"Deep Blue."
Although this sect had a balanced diet of Yin and Yang, the quantity was too little. Every time Lu Sheng went to the Devil's Pool, he would expend a lot of Aquarius Qi. That was why he needed large amounts of nourishing food to speed up the recovery of his inner Qi.
Soon, the days returned to the same rhythm as before.
'Karmaless Skill: Level 3. Special Effect: Body Strengthening Level 3.'
The Minggui Pill was used to replenish Qi and blood. It was mixed with many precious herbs and had the effect of nourishing Qi and blood. It was especially effective in replenishing Qi and Yin.
Fei Huangzi stared at him coldly, an indescribable look in his eyes.
