The seal Zhang Yu was looking at this time was the "True Breath" seal. This was the breathing technique he had learned from his old cultivator teacher.
His teacher had once warned him not to try to use Divine Essence to upgrade this seal, or unpredictable changes would occur.
Later on, he understood the meaning behind it.
This breathing technique was originally used to break through the body's restrictions. This was the same principle as finding the mystery and then breaking through the body's limits.
Therefore, if he had used Divine Essence to upgrade the "True Breath" seal, then under the circumstances at that time, it would have been the same as forcibly searching for the seal of the second chapter. Given his situation at that time, he would most likely have been eroded by the Great Chaos.
Theoretically speaking, as long as he had enough Divine Essence, this seemed to be possible.
However, he could now clearly feel that the leap in level involved was not so simple. Before he could come into contact with an opportunity that could trigger a metamorphosis, no matter how much Divine Essence he had, it would be useless. It would be fine if he did not succeed, but if he did, then the final result would be that the missing part would be filled by the power of the Great Chaos.
Now that his body had completed the breakthrough, there was absolutely no problem in upgrading this breathing technique. In other words, the breathing technique itself was not very useful to him.
However, the reason he made this choice now was because when Qi Huan gave him the half piece of Mysterious Jade, he emphasized the word "fate". This statement was not like Xuanxiu's tone, but a typical old cultivator's argument.
But in reality, this wasn't considered abrupt, because the initial establishment of the new law had been participated and promoted by a group of old cultivators. Profound jade should have been brought over from the Profound Palace's territory. Perhaps it was even more ancient than they had imagined, so it was extremely possible for it to have a little bit of the old cultivators' influence.
Since that was the case, he wanted to try and use the old cultivator's methods to see if he could trigger some kind of opportunity on the Mysterious Jade.
The old cultivator's method was to use the heart to breathe to communicate, just like his Xia Sword. The most important thing here was, first, sincerity, and second, the breathing technique.
After injecting Divine Essence, the "True Breath" seal was instantly completed. As a ray of light shone down from the seal, he suddenly felt a strange feeling arise in his heart.
In reality, there were no substantial changes to his body. Instead, his ability to sense external objects seemed to have become more agile and ethereal. However, it was only a very weak increase.
He carefully comprehended it and found that it wasn't completely the same. If this breathing technique was previously a self-circulating pool of water, isolated and isolated, then now it was connected to the flowing water outside, allowing the inside and outside to circulate freely.
In the past, he had always used this breathing technique to replace sleep. However, after breaking through the shackles of his body and entering the Spiritual Chapter, its effects were not that great. It was as if he had only maintained it as a habit.
For the past month or so, he had been using Xuanfu's breathing technique to gather his Magical Vitality. However, after the advancement of his True Breath technique, it seemed to be able to provide substantial help. This was an unexpected gain.
As he thought of this, he suddenly realized that with this breakthrough, he seemed to be able to cultivate the next stage of the cultivation method that his teacher had mentioned.
But that was just a thought.
Old cultivation methods required a long period of tempering and cultivation. The breathing technique was the simplest type. There were even more complicated and profound methods behind it. There were even difficult problems like the Peach Seal. Even the higher level of cultivation methods had to be found by himself.
Rather than spending time and effort on this, it was better to read a few more seals and collect more items with Origin Energy.
At this time, he looked at the Xuan Jade and thought that if this method still didn't work, then there was no need to be too stubborn. He would put it aside for the time being. This item would always be by his side. He would look for opportunities in the future.
After settling his thoughts, he immediately sat cross-legged and placed the Xuan Jade in the palm of his hand. He breathed slowly and his mind slowly sank as he attempted to communicate with this item.
He didn't deliberately search for it. Instead, he relied purely on nature. If the opportunity came, then he would take it. If it didn't, then he wouldn't take it. He didn't dwell on it.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly woke up from his deep meditation. He felt that his breathing was smooth and his mind was clear. His condition had never been better.
He immediately realized that this Xuan Jade had the ability to assist in cultivation. Even if there was no seal on it, it was still a very useful treasure.
Not only that, but his previous train of thought was correct. The communication he had just done had some effect. There was indeed a seal within the Xuan Jade. However, this seal didn't have any seal name on it. The item inside also seemed blurry. It seemed to be empty, but it wasn't. It was difficult to identify it.
He pondered for a moment. Since this Xuan Jade seal could only be sensed by old cultivators, then perhaps it contained some kind of cultivation method left behind by old cultivators. The reason why he couldn't see it clearly now was most likely because his cultivation wasn't high enough.
Since that was the case, he would put it aside for the time being.
To him, this time, he had upgraded his True Breath Seal and verified that this Xuan Jade was a magic tool. This was also a kind of fate. There was no need to extravagantly ask for more.
He got up and came out of the quiet room. He went to the top floor of his residence. Taking advantage of the beautiful scenery, he brewed a pot of tea. As he sipped the tea, he flipped through an ancient secret text. Lord Miao Danjun leaped back and forth at the side, chasing and fiddling with a soft ball that was bouncing back and forth.
After noon, Li Qinghe walked up and said, "Teacher, Yan Shaolang is here."
Zhang Yu said, "Let him come up."
Li Qinghe acknowledged and left.
After a while, Yan Yuming came to the top floor and bowed. He handed over a document and said, "Teacher, the matter that teacher asked me to do last time has been arranged by this disciple. There is now a result."
Zhang Yu said, "Well done."
He took the document and flipped through it. Sure enough, his status was different now. Xuanfu's attitude was also different. This time, when he brought up this matter, Xuanfu sent more than ten Xuanxiu to Xiaoshan Town to investigate.
The leader of the team was a Xuanxiu who had condensed the Heart's Light. After a careful search, they did indeed find an underground passage near the ruins.
After these Xuanxiu went deeper, they found a lot of indigenous people and had a conflict with them. Because they didn't know how many enemies there were, their strength wasn't unknown, and the area below was very vast, they quickly retreated. When they came back, they reported this matter to their superiors.
He thought to himself. Xiang Chun was now plotting to deal with Chaoming City. Before the results were out, he could only put this matter aside for the time being. After all, Xuanfu's strength was limited. They could only focus on one place for now.
He flipped through the Xuanfu disciples who participated in the investigation this time, as well as the specific actions of each of them. He unexpectedly found that Bai Qingqing was also among them. Moreover, he had played a big role in this. It was by relying on his cultivation of the Eye Seal Technique that they found the entrance.
After thinking for a while, he picked up a brush and wrote a comment on each person in the document.
His attitude was related to Xuanfu's evaluation of these Xuanxiu. Of course, he couldn't comment casually. It had to be based on the facts. However, it wasn't a problem to be slightly biased towards one or two people.
He wrote a few more sentences under the names of a few people, especially Bai Qingqing's. After all, they had entered the Protectorate together. It could be considered that he had taken care of them a little.
Of course, he definitely didn't know what Bai Qingqing was thinking.
Just as he finished writing, Li Qinghe came to the top floor again and said, "Sir, Manager Xiang sent someone over. He said he has something important to ask you."
The brush in Zhang Yu's hand paused slightly. He knew that the matter had come to a conclusion. He quickly finished writing the last few words, put down the brush, and stood up. "Go tell the person who came that I'm going to make some preparations. I'll be there in a moment."
At the same time, in Swallow Beak Bay to the southwest of the Protectorate, a medium-sized sailboat sailed into the harbor. A dozen people came down from the wide rope ladder one after another. They were all wearing overcoats and cloaks, and all of them were tall and burly.
At the front was a middle-aged man in his forties. His facial features were tall and straight, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. His face was thin, and his lips were thin. The beard on his face seemed to have gone through the vicissitudes of life. His hair was tied up casually, and a few strands fell down slightly.
The people waiting at the harbor rushed over. One of them, a burly man, came up and cupped his hands. "Marquis Chi!" he said in a loud voice.
The middle-aged man looked over and said in a deep voice, "I'm just a Marquis."
The burly man said firmly, "Almote has been missing for almost two months. Something must have happened to him and he can't come back. That's why it's right to call you a Marquis!"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "I'm not. Don't call me that. I won't be happy."
The burly man chuckled. He had seen all kinds of people and could see that although this person appeared unwilling, he was actually quite happy inside. He just didn't want to admit it.
"Pretentious!"
He looked down on him in his heart.
When the middle-aged man heard him say this, he sighed helplessly. You can say whatever you want. In any case, I can't force you.
At this time, the morning fog gradually dissipated, and Chaoming City appeared in the distance.
He looked up and said, "Chaoming City seems to be larger than before. En, something has been added to the city walls."
The burly man couldn't help but be shocked. Recently, there had been more buildings outside Chaoming City, and a layer of red mud had been smeared on the city walls. This was what the tribes used to build temples in the early years. It was said that it could effectively resist the erosion of certain spirituality.
He hadn't expected this person to be able to see such a small change from so far away. It was really amazing.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but restrain his original thoughts. He asked tentatively, "I haven't asked, what is Marquis Chi here for this time?"
When the middle-aged man heard him say this, he immediately scolded mercilessly, "Don't put on airs in front of me! I know you have your own spies in the protectorate, and there are also officials in the Prefectural Court who have been bribed by you. You know very well why I'm here! "
"Who's the one putting on airs?"
The burly man cursed in his heart again. Of course, he still had a smile on his face. Right now, they couldn't do without the other's help. At least, this person in front of him wasn't greedy. Between being scolded and money, he would rather choose the former.
He turned sideways and said, "Marquis Chi, it's my fault. The wind at the docks is strong. Let's talk after we enter the city."
