I still remember before he was struck by a thunderbolt, Wu Xian had once seen a post about the strength ranking of Ba Qiji on the Internet bar forum.
The strongest of them all naturally has the thickest mystic atmosphere and claims to be the ultimate source of Qi, the origin of techniques.
And the weakest one is full of speculation and has its own opinions. There is no definite conclusion.
However, if decided by a voting mechanism, then Tongtian Lü would essentially have a firm grip on the bottom position, and it would be quite a few streets ahead of the second last.
So the question is, is Tongtian Lü really weak?
Wu Xian was not clear before, but according to the amulets knowledge learned from the Taoist Zhang Jingqing recently, he has a new view on the amulets that he was only slightly aware of.
Firstly, the "fú" and the "lù" are two different concepts.
The "lù" must have the "fú," but the "fú" is not necessarily part of the "lù."
Among them, the connotation of the "fú" is originally referred to as the "Heavenly True Man" in Taoism, at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, according to the essence of Dao condensed in shape, drawing it out according to true forms, so that the form of the spirit amulet fits with Dao Qi, i.e., coincides with it, this can release great power and godly techniques, to deal with various situations.
As for the "lù," it is a register of ghost and god names, recording their names, attire, functions, and the methods of summoning and commanding them. This method requires the use of corresponding spells and incantations to be effective, hence it is also known as the "method register."
Generally speaking, if one wants to use the real "lù," one must first draw a "fú," and the process can be incredibly cumbersome.
The painter needs to go through a series of rituals such as opening the hall, practicing law, burning incense and bathing, and even choosing an auspicious day. The amulets drawn in this way can achieve the effect of instant magic.
However, the Tongtian Lü, one of the eight extraordinary techniques, has forcibly broken these rules.
It doesn't need to be bound by carrier limitations, nor does it require opening the hall and respecting the heavens, it can be used anytime and anywhere, as if it only needs to sweep with a brush, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be at its command.
Other than that, simply based on this one point, Tongtian Lü deserves the title of an extraordinary technique.
And according to Lu Jin's performance in the anime, Tongtian Lü also has the function of fusing different attribute amulets and storing them simultaneously, which makes it even more heavenly!
Just imagine, if a person really mastered Tongtian Lü, they would just draw hundreds of amulets every day and store them. Over time, it would be like having an endless supply of firepower, even more absurd than carrying a military arsenal around.
Thinking of this, Wu Xian looked at the five-thunder amulet he had already drawn in his hand, his eyes twinkling slightly as if pondering something. There was no great joy in him for beginning to cultivate the Tongtian Lü.
"Tongtian Lü, Tongtian Lü... the focus isn't on the 'lù', could it actually have anything to do with 'Tongtian'? But this claim is too big, isn't it?"
Wu Xian muttered to himself, according to the latest manga chapter he saw before crossing over, the official "Nado Tong" company had started to formulate a plan to restrict the spread of the eight extraordinary techniques. At the same time, the advanced versions of the eight extraordinary techniques began to show up.
The Wind Lord's extraordinary techniques need no further explanation; the methods of advancement have basically been revealed. And from Zhang Lingyu, Wu Xian also learned that the truly terrifying aspect of this divine technique does not lie in the 'lù' itself, leaving one to speculation.
Considering that this divine technique is the creation of Lu Jin's close friend, Zheng Zibo of the Clear Clarity Sect on the Mount Mao, and he happens to know some of the hidden truths about the Three-Way Cult incident that happened years ago, it is difficult not to speculate in this direction.
When mentioning this, it is necessary to talk about the unique skill of the San Yin Gate——the cultivation principle of reverse growth triple.
In the world view of a world with only one person, human birth is the transformation of the primordial Qi into limbs and organs, and the primordial Qi will also gradually transform into post-natal Qi due to this. Over time, as it progresses, it slowly wanes until death.
The concept of reverse growth triple is to recondition the body of a person back to the state of primordial Qi, in order to achieve the ultimate goal of flying up to become a god, and living forever without aging.
Unfortunately, besides the legendary founder of the sect, in the hundreds of years of history of the Three-Way Cult, no one has ever truly reached the third level.
Even the incredibly talented Zuo Ruotong had to break through forcibly with the help of Wuogen Sheng.
After the third level, Zuo Ruotong had already been able to fully Qi-ify his body, nurturing his form with divine essence. Based solely on outward appearances, saying he was already a deity would not be an exaggeration.
However, the only flaw was that even after reaching the third level, Zuo Ruotong still could not achieve the primordial state of wholeness and had to constantly consume a large amount of mental and spiritual energy to maintain the state of reversal.
Once it is unlocked, the injuries and diseases caused by Zuo Ruotong's cultivation of reverse birth will not be healed, and he will still grow old and die as a mortal body.
In a way, this already proves that reaching the third level can allow one to fly up to become a deity is a huge lie, and that is the main reason why the Three-Way Cult gradually weakened and eventually disappeared from the world of aliens.
As a disciple of the Three-Way Cult, Wu Xian certainly does not want such a thing to happen.
However, in order to prevent this from happening, it is necessary to address the flaws in reverse growth triple. Alternatively, finding a method that complements reverse growth triple could provide the possibility of achieving "Tongtian".
In this regard, the capabilities of the Tongtian Lü become quite intriguing to ponder.
For now, let's put aside other topics. The most fundamental ability of the Tongtian Lü is to arbitrarily call upon the earthly Qi of the Dao. When users cultivate reverse growth triple and enter the state of "I am Qi," they are essentially no different from the earthly Qi itself.
At that time, they can use the calling ability of the Tongtian Lü to strengthen their own Qi, i.e., integrating with nature and the heavens.
It's like the person is ice, and the ice reverses into water. With the help of the Tongtian Lü, these waters merge with the sea, and the sea then turns back into ice. The person will experience such a great enhancement; could this be considered another form of "Tongtian"?
"Hū————"
Taking a deep breath, Wu Xian paused his brainstorming.
In any case, it's too early to think about these things now. After all, his own reverse cultivation has only reached the second level, still far from Master Shizhu's ability to regenerate severed limbs.
To verify his previous ideas, Wu Xian needs to at least reach Zuo Ruotong's current level, which is the so-called reformation of three dantian.
By that time, he would use the Tongtian Lü to integrate himself with the heavens and earth, nature, and thus reach the true third level of cultivation, and even transcend it.
"It's time to speed up the progress. There are other eight extraordinary techniques that also need to be incorporated into the schedule for cultivation."
Especially "Kouling Qianjiang," it's best to master it preliminarily before the next time I enter the mysterious space, so that some reincarnation mocks me for only white-piggybacking.”
"However, speaking of 'Kouling Qianjiang,' I need to capture some fairies to get familiar with it quickly. There's not much opportunity staying within the Three-Way Cult, so where should I go to find ownerless fairies?"
Wu Xian furrowed his brow, slightly thinking for a moment, and suddenly an idea struck him.
"Yes, why be so narrow-minded? Fairies are hard to find, but death spirits and resentful spirits are everywhere this year!"
"If all else fails, I can go after the fully demonic spirits and demons. After killing them, I can directly draw their souls and capture their spirits. This proficiency is definitely going to skyrocket!"
The more he thought about it, the more Wu Xian felt that it was reliable. He couldn't help but curl his lip, deciding to apply for an external tour after mastering Tongtian Lü, and then began to prepare his "Kouling Qianjiang" training plan.
"Hmph! I want to see who dares to call me a white-piggybacking monster in the mysterious space from now on!"
