Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises-Chapter 319 - 137: True Skill (Part 3)

"...

This ’Qianyuan True Skill’ is a Martial Arts Skill from the Ancient Era, but it’s severely incomplete; missing the True Intent Diagram and the techniques post Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

It only retains the cultivation technique for the Qi Blood Realm.

Everyone knows that only cultivation techniques containing the True Intent Diagram that can be practiced to the Grandmaster Realm can be called True Skills.

Every True Skill is extremely domineering, requiring the use of specially formulated elixirs and the Heart Method for cultivation; otherwise, mistakes are easily made, damaging the very roots."

"This cultivation technique lacks the elixir formula, the True Intent Diagram, and the Heart Method, it only has the Qi and Blood Condensation Skill.

Even though it can’t be cultivated, it is nevertheless a valuable reference..."

Lee Lingyun endlessly explained, her crisp and melodious voice having a strong persuasive effect.

Compared to elixirs, selling cultivation techniques is vastly more profitable, as it’s a business without capital.

"True Skill?"

Lin Zheyu heard Lee Lingyun’s explanation and paused slightly.

It’s his first time hearing this term.

Indeed, one’s circle determines one’s knowledge and vision.

If it weren’t for Wang Jing’s invitation and being able to attend the Lee Family auction, Lin Zheyu estimated that he could only learn about True Skills by entering those sects.

"Just incomplete cultivation techniques, huh..."

"After so much auctioning, not a single technique above Qi Blood Five Transformations has appeared."

"These families and sects control the techniques for Qi Blood Five Transformations very strictly; not even the auction has them."

"Only an incomplete, unworkable cultivation technique has appeared."

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

He pondered for a while, and after several bids, joined in: "Three thousand two hundred silver."

As soon as his voice fell, someone added: "Three thousand five hundred."

"Three thousand six hundred silver."

...

Next came another round of bidding.

Lin Zheyu was slightly surprised; he didn’t expect so many people to scramble for a partial manual.

"Four thousand one hundred, anyone else bidding?"

Lee Lingyun asked with a smile.

She quietly waited for a few moments, ready to drop the hammer, when Lin Zheyu directly added a hundred silver.

"Hmm?"

From afar, a brawny man looked over towards him.

The man wore a white faceless mask and sat ahead of Lin Zheyu.

"Hm, four thousand two hundred silver,"

The brawny man scoffed coldly, speaking with a determined look.

"Four thousand five hundred silver."

Lin Zheyu glanced at him from the corner of his eye and continued.

This cultivation technique he was determined to acquire.

If missed, he wouldn’t know if other Qi and Blood Condensation Techniques would be auctioned.

Besides, it was currently only four thousand five hundred silver; the opponent surely wouldn’t jump to ten thousand, right?

"Four thousand eight hundred..."

"..."

"Five thousand eight hundred silver."

Lin Zheyu spoke lightly, ignoring the brawny man’s fierce gaze.

"Damn, fighting with me over an incomplete broken manual; I’ll remember you!" the brawny man cursed under his breath, giving up the struggle.

Continuing further would become unreasonable.

"Anyone continue to bid? If not, this cultivation technique belongs to the guest at seat 873."

Lee Lingyun asked with a smile.

She glanced around, waiting a few moments; no one bid.

"Congratulations to this guest for winning the fragment of ’Qianyuan True Skill’." Lee Lingyun said with a smile.

Lin Zheyu breathed a sigh of relief; finally, it was his.

This incomplete True Skill, due to lacking elixir formula and Heart Method, with only Qi and Blood Condensation Skill, couldn’t be cultivated by ordinary people.

However, Lin Zheyu could try using the special characteristics of Source Power.

If successful, it would be a huge gain.

’Qianyuan True Skill,’ even though incomplete, is a True Skill; the Qi and Blood Condensation method recorded on it should be able to cultivate to the Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood.

"I hope I can cultivate it; otherwise, five thousand eight hundred silver is wasted," Lin Zheyu murmured.

Nearly six thousand silver in one go; his savings halved.

If the cultivation technique worked, the materials needed for enhancement would be another considerable expense.

With the cultivation technique in hand, Lin Zheyu didn’t rush to leave.

Even if not bidding, hearing Lee Lingyun’s introductions could expand knowledge, difficult to find in Chongwu Tower.

The auction continued; indeed, there were no similar ’Qianyuan True Skill,’ Qi and Blood Condensation incomplete techniques afterwards.

Though some incomplete elixir formulas and secret books appeared.

For the latter items, Lin Zheyu made no moves.

It wasn’t that the items were bad; primarily, he was broke, couldn’t afford them.

Almost another hour passed before the auction ended.

This auction’s transaction flow likely exceeded millions.

Lin Zheyu purchased the ’Qianyuan True Skill’ fragment, merely among various auction items, priced lower.

The expensive ones even auctioned for hundreds of thousands of silver.

After the auction ended, guests departed orderly.

Entrance had one doorway; departure opened ten different exits, offering various protective services, extremely considerate.

Lin Zheyu acquired the cultivation technique, exited Lingchuan Tower, sensing no one following.

However, he cautiously circled many routes, merged into the crowd, frequently changed identities, then headed home.

Back to the courtyard.

Lin Zheyu couldn’t wait, took out the cultivation technique to begin his study.

Finally obtaining after a long search.

"As expected!"

"I knew it!"

"Below Qi Blood Five Transformations, involving various body acupoints!"

Lin Zheyu flipped through the fragment of ’Qianyuan True Skill,’ his eyes shining brighter.

He had practiced various skills; ordinary body refinement and Qi Blood condensation methods, wanting to reach Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood before thirty-something was impossible.

Only something like the Blood Boiling Secret Skill involving acupoints could achieve that.

Though unlike the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, Qianyuan True Skill’s Qi and Blood condensation methods are much milder.

It merely requires with the Heart Method’s stimulation and elixirs to assist, preventing damage to the body’s foundation during the cultivation process.

"I see, the Heart Method helps stop Qi and Blood circulation."

"In Qianyuan True Skill, the Qi and Blood condensation method is similar to the Blood Boiling Secret Skill; once activated, it becomes uncontrollable.

Until the body’s essence and Qi Blood are exhausted, causing Qi Blood depletion, injury to the foundation, then it automatically stops."

"But unlike Blood Boiling Secret Skill, Qianyuan True Skill’s Qi Blood circulation acupoints differ, not burning Essence, Qi, and Spirit, so the effect is greatly reduced."

Lin Zheyu read the introduction, eyes brightening.

Qi Blood circulates through acupoints all over the body, assisted by acupoints, undergoing purification and transformation.

This process is extremely dangerous; without the energy from burning Essence, Qi, and Spirit, Qi and Blood circulation through acupoints would cause serious damage to acupoints all over the body.

The Heart Method is used to halt the cultivation process, preventing uncontrollable cultivation, causing bodily depletion.

Elixirs are for protecting acupoints all over the body, preventing damage to the body’s foundation during cultivation.

And these two issues both meant little to Lin Zheyu.

Any physical damage, as long as it doesn’t harm the spirit, Lin Zheyu could forcibly cultivate.

"Fortunately, five thousand eight hundred silver isn’t wasted."

Lin Zheyu smiled lightly, in excellent spirits.

With this True Skill fragment, he could directly cultivate to the Qi Blood Dragon Realm.
