My Cultivation Starting from Archery Chapter 1036 - 328: Mortal

Golden stars leaped and twinkled in the vast sea, forming one irregular pattern after another.

Chen Sansi gently nudged the compass, causing the arrangent of the stars to change each ti.

Yet, he still couldn’t decipher the mystery within.

This small compass was at least a third-tier formation.

Chen Sansi’s current mastery of formations was only at the second tier, and he truly couldn’t comprehend it.

He judged that this compass might be the key to unlocking the secret realm, or perhaps it was used for guidance.

But as for the specifics, he still needed to find a way to unravel this formation.

[Skill: Formation (Second-tier)]

[Progress: 51/1000]

The best way to quickly enhance skill proficiency is to gather a large number of high-tier different formations.

In Beiyang Dao, the second-tier formations he had collected were not many; apart from the Gathering Spirit Town and the second-tier Mountain Protection Array, only so rather useless formations were left.

Fortunately, regarding the inheritance of formations, it is also possible to exchange through rit within the Qingxu Sect.

Returning to his old profession of hunting seed inevitable.

Chen Sansi put everything away, did not rush, and instead cald his mind and took out the Longdan Bright Silver Spear in the cave mansion, beginning to practice the "Dragon Scripture."

Ti flashed by, and half a year passed.

The ti arrived at December of the seventeenth year of Tian Wu.

Over the past half-year, the first thing Chen Sansi did every morning was to control a puppet to attend court remotely and handle governntal affairs.

Then he spent most of the ti on cultivation and a small part honing skills.

[Cultivation Technique: Swallowing Fire Technique. Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt]

[Progress: 255/1000]

...

On this day, after finishing his ditation, Chen Sansi, while in the best ntal state, picked up the Longdan Bright Silver Spear and started practicing Martial Arts.

Unlocking the five organs, also known as opening the five gates, refining the Five Elents, refers to the so-called five viscera and six bowels.

A person’s Spirit Root may have a single division of Five Elents, but the human body itself is Five Elents Complete.

Refining the Five Elents is to make them abundant, so as to temper the viscera into glazed organs, achieving an Unbreakable Golden Body!

The Dragon Scripture True Power, practiced thousands of tis, washed over the ridians, flesh, bones, and... the five viscera and six bowels once more!

"Boom boom boom!"

As the speed at which the long spear danced beca faster and faster, a drum-like sound ca from the lower left of Chen Sansi’s chest, and simultaneously, a strong swelling pain emanated from his heart.

He could feel his heart almost coming alive, possessing its own life and consciousness, needing to be repressed within his body.

Every swing of the Longdan Bright Silver Spear was like a blacksmith’s hamr forging an artifact, striking his heart once.

After countless trials and the passage of days and nights, just as Chen Sansi was about to exhaust himself, a dragon’s roar suddenly emanated from his heart!

He used Divine Sense to perceive his own body and saw that his heart had sohow already turned glassy and translucent, no longer of mortal flesh.

Inside the glass-like heart, a cluster of crimson flas resided, roaming around like a fire dragon.

The heart gate, nad Dan Yuan, designation Shou Ling, located in the south, color red, belonging to the fire elent of the Five Elents!

Heart gate open!

[Cultivation Technique: Dragon Scripture (True Power Late Stage)]

[Progress: 100/500]

This is the necessary process to reach True Power Perfection. Once all five gates open, and during operation, the five viscera and six bowels transform into translucent glass, the next step to temper the Golden Body can proceed!

"Phew..."

Finally making so progress, Chen Sansi let out a long breath of impure air, opened the stone gate of the cave mansion, and breathed in the Spiritual Energy-rich air at the bottom of Baihua Valley.

After cultivating devotedly for half a year, he considered himself formally integrated into Baihua Valley and thought it was ti to go out and take a walk.

He planned to hunt in the Black Shinning Forest, aiming to gather enough rit in one go to exchange for several items he needed.

Taking out the long-sealed Purple Thunder Bow, Chen Sansi drew the bowstring under the dazzling midday sun in the Heavenly Do, familiarizing himself with its feel.

Following that, he retrieved his storage bag, and upon opening it, Black Cicadas flew out one by one.

Chen Sansi ford a seal and cast spells, successively releasing three types of flas: "Burning Sky," "Ten Thousand Beasts," and "Yin Soul."

The Black Cicadas consud them into their bodies.

This step is called the "Devouring Technique."

The Magic-eating Cicadas store various flas within their bodies and self-destruct near the target to injure them.

A second-tier Magic-eating Cicada, carrying Chen Sansi’s internal flas and exploding, could be a sure death or injury for the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, as long as directly hit.

Even when prepared, it can deplete the enemy’s reserves, proving to be a quite practical thod.

And this "Magic-eating Cicada" can also evolve.

The cultivation thod is not complicated; just place it in a spiritual place and feed it Spirit Stones.

But to speak of the fastest way to grow, it is to feed them by consuming a cultivator’s mana.

Chen Sansi had no prior experience in breeding Gu Insects; this fact he only learned later from reading the classics in the Qingxu Sect.

Magic-eating Cicadas can band together to absorb the mana from a cultivator’s body, process it, and return it to the mother insect and the Insect King.

Cultivators who had their mana absorbed by them would have their Spirit Root decay and ridians destroyed, but the cultivators aren’t fools to wait for the slowly flying Magic-eating Cicadas to surround them.

Therefore, the best way remains to devour the residual mana in cultivators’ corpses, a kind of resource recycling.

Thinking back to the battle in Beiyang Dao, it truly was a waste of resources.

[Skill: Beast Taming (Mastery)]

[Progress: 89/1000]

[...]

Breeding Gu is included within Beast Taming, considered a branch, so the entry effects can also be applied to Gu Insects.

It’s just unknown what effects would be brought by Gu Insects undergoing [Ancestor Return] and [Enlightennt].

Putting away the "Bow and Arrow," Chen Sansi took out a talisman again.
