《Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method》。
Seeing the deeper inscriptions of the cultivating technique on the cover, Lu Jin'an couldn't help but ponder for a few seconds. How could this soul technique be a double-cultivation soul technique?
Is it a kind of soul-reforging technique that resembles dual cultivation of the body, where the spirits and souls intermingle and cultivate together?
Lu Jin'an is not unfamiliar with dual cultivation of the spirit by the Huahan Sect. Although such techniques can certainly enhance the strength of the spirit, their drawbacks are significant.
Because the feeling of dual cultivation of the spirit is much stronger than that of dual cultivation of the body, one mistake can easily lead to excessive immersion, followed by excessive emotional excitement resulting in either absorption of Yang to nourish Yin or absorption of Yin to nourish Yang.
Even more seriously, one could completely sink into the state of spiritual and soul dual cultivation, so deep that they couldn't be pulled out no matter how hard you try.
The Huahan Sect has seen too many instances of this sort in the past.
Although the Huahan Sect also has powerful experts, these powerful experts have evolved into the Yin and Yang of the universe at later stages, rather than relying on the Yin and Yang of the small world created by male and female affairs to achieve great power.
So, such techniques should not be so prominently displayed...
"Or in the form of a book..."
Lu Jin'an looked up at the shelves full of soul law talismans, then down at the secret manual in his hand. After thinking for a moment, he still turned the pages to read it.
Take the essence and discard the dregs, you know.
Lu Jin'an, standing in place, originally wanted to quickly browse through it, but gradually slowed down the speed. He read every word and sentence silently in his heart.
'The merging of Yin and Yang is a matter of life and death, the awakening of life, refinement and sweetness, full-roundness...'
Dual cultivation of Yin and Yang, the merging of essence, spirit, and Qi into one, the integration of life and death literature, the three energies being cooked together, returning to the original life force, the root pillar has spirit...
Lu Jin'an flipped through page by page, and found that this soul-forging technique didn't have any incantations. All the incantations were integrated into every word and sentence.
'The prolongation of excitement, is not dependent on the root of talent alone, but should be experienced throughout the body. The Qi is fused with the body in harmony. And then, the essence, spirit, and Qi are integrated. Integrating it throughout the whole body, bringing a full-body refreshment...'
'The divine light returns to tranquility, the heart and body achieve perfect harmony. Seeking both above and below, Yin and Yang transform the impurities. The impurities become integrated and bright, the divine light is clear. Union creates life, maturity is the true spirit.'
Turning to the second to last page of 'Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method', Lu Jin'an let out a long breath.
This heavenly grade soul technique, which looks like a dual cultivation soul technique, is indeed quite exquisite. Exquisite to the point that Lu Jinan feels it should be something that belongs in the sixth or seventh layer of the Library of All Methods.
However, after re-reading it twice, Lu Jinan began to understand why this soul technique appeared in the fifth layer suitable for cultivation at the level of the Path.
It's more accurate to say that this is a type of dual cultivation that resembles absorbing Yang to nourish Yin or absorbing Yin to nourish Yang.
Because the "seeking" in "seeking both above and below" does not refer to seeking with hands, but rather to one-sided solicitation... It's somewhat akin to the concept of a cauldron.
Just this point alone contradicts the principle of dual cultivation.
However, even so, the harm to one side of this soul technique is almost negligible compared to that of the cauldron.
Dual cultivation is for mutual advancement. While the "Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method" does not reach the level of a cauldron, one party in it always holds the initiative.
"Master and slave..."
Lu Jin'an muttered softly, feeling that these two words were more appropriate to describe this soul technique.
Moreover, the term 'master and slave' denotes a high level of hierarchy, somewhat akin to the master-servant relationship between a miss and her maid-in-waiting.
During his contemplation, Lu Jin'an flipped to the last page and saw the three small words: Volume Complete.
'Is this just the upper volume?'
Lu Jinan was somewhat surprised, feeling that the upper volume seemed to have covered everything that needed to be said. How could there still be a lower volume?
Or maybe there is a middle volume?
It shouldn't be necessary, should it?
Although he thought about it, Lu Jinan, curious about this soul technique, wanted to look for it on the fifth floor. But just as he took a step, the "Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method" in his hand was taken away by a pair of delicate and pale white fingers.
'Senior sister?' Lu Jinan turned to look at the blindfolded Mu Qingyue: 'How did you come here?'
'Concerning my younger brother.' Mu Qingyue's voice remained as cold and piercing as ever, without any sign of emotion.
But after being alone in Jing'an City, Lu Jinan knew that his senior sister was repressed.
Different from Nanzhi one...
Before making a clean break with Nanzhi, she was repressed because she dared not show too much.
After using her to scare him into revealing her true nature, Nanzhi finally let out the suppressed desire in her heart.
Speaking of 'measurement' of time, competing for a 'ye'... She directly expresses it to you instead of hiding it deep down in her heart.
One is the cool and gentle Shengnu of Qingmiao Palace, and the other is the cold and silent Sword Immortal of Wandao Sect... How can the contrast be so great?
Listening to Mu Qingyue's voice, Lu Jinan moved to the side immediately, making sure that he wasn't obstructed by anything.
At the same time, he subtly mobilized his spirit power.
Because he was worried that his senior sister would, like in Jing'an City, tease him with 'coercion' in the quiet 'library'.
After all, not many disciples of Wandao Sect can come to this level, and here only the array is protected, without any senior figures casting their consciousness to watch.
It's too suitable for his senior sister to display her repressed nature with fewer people and quietness, and no 'monitoring'.
However, what relieved Lu Jinan was that his senior sister's attention was entirely on the secret manual in her hand.
She stroked the faintly inscribed characters on the cover with her delicate and long fingers, her voice calm: "Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method? Dual cultivation soul technique? Brother wants to learn this?"
"I'm just looking."
"But brother has read it three times."
Lu Jin'an was silent for a moment: "Did you follow me?"
"I just thought brother was staying in the Library of All Methods for too long, so I came to check on you," Mu Qingyue said calmly. "I can practice this with brother."
Looking at the black cloth covering Mu Qingyue's eyes, Lu Jin'an thought of the records of 'Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method'. All at once, he thought of a 'collar'.
But for a moment, his mind was alert. However, upon thinking that his senior sister did not know the content of this soul technique, he calmly said: "I'm just looking. After all, I've seen quite a few in the past few days. Would you be able to practice it with me too?"
The reason I've read it three times is just that I think there are some good points in this soul technique. It's not for practice.
As he spoke, he reached out to take the secret manual in Mu Qingyue's hand: "I'll take some notes."
Mu Qingyue didn't say anything and let go: "There's only one soul technique that Brother has read three times."
"Have you been following me the whole time?" Lu Jinan rolled his eyes: "What have you been doing all this time?"
Mu Qingyue slightly raised her head: "Practicing swordsmanship and meditation, watching you."
Lu Jinan smiled: "What kind of meditation is that?"
"I also need to enhance my spiritual and soul power."
"Mhm." Lu Jinan nodded, picked up the 'Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method' and walked over to the table to pick up a brush, starting to take notes as he wrote. He was summarizing and organizing what he had seen in the previous days' soul techniques.
After finishing his notes, he returned the 'Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method' to its original place and began to browse other soul law talismans.
Mu Qingyue did not disturb the quiet atmosphere and moved around the fifth floor. Through the gaps between the shelves, she watched Lu Jinan, who was focused on his task, and her cheeks had somehow turned a little rosy.
'Even if Brother extracts only a bit of the essence from the "Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Reforging the Soul Method," you still can't escape...'
'Once you finish reading and begin to cultivate, you'll understand me more, know me more... You can get closer to me~~~'
With a blush on her cheeks, Mu Qingyue, not knowing what she was thinking, leaned against the shelf and took hurried breaths for a while before gradually calming down.
Then she walked to the front of the bookcase and took out 'Seeking the Ultimate Bliss and Rapid Reforging of Soul Method', turned to Lu Jinan, who had just looked up, and said: "Brother, you have read this soul law three times. I'm curious, I'll borrow it to read later."
Lu Jinan indifferent nodded, as he wasn't going to practice the whole technique anyway.
Even if Senior Sister were to practice it, it wouldn't matter to him.
