Chapter 623 - 233: Entry Level of the Karma Desire Technique—Fifteen of Me to Defeat One Ye Yanshu? (Part 2)

Chapter 623: Chapter 233: Entry Level of the Karma Desire Technique—Fifteen of Me to Defeat One Ye Yanshu? (Part 2)

After a long period of exploration, and with the experiences of yesterday, he finally couldn’t resist and took a sip of the Thousand-Year Enlightenment Tea, finally comprehending its final principle.

He officially began cultivating it to the entry level.

"The Karma Desire Technique is truly profound beyond words.

With this magic, one can detect the general location of a target entangled with them through cause and effect.

The higher the realm of the Karma Desire Technique, the more precise the location that can be detected.

If cultivated to perfection, it can even lock onto the opponent’s specific location and gauge their strength level..."

Zhou Changwang took a deep breath.

He couldn’t resist using this magic directly.

With a slight movement of his heart spirit, he forced a drop of blood from his body, then released his divine sense, immediately starting to evolve intricate rune patterns.

This rune pattern, embedded with countless dharma rune structures, was extremely complex, similar to the dao text of minor divine techniques, albeit somewhat simplified, thus still categorized as a magic technique.

Of course, because of this,

Zhou Changwang found entry somewhat easier, as at least half of the dharma rune structures were ones he had already mastered.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

After a full thirty-nine breaths,

he finally managed to complete the entire dharma rune structure.

Then, at the moment the rune structure took shape,

his divine sense was consumed by half, and he funneled his true essence into it.

In an instant, he felt almost half of his true essence power within him being drained.

As a result, he felt a mysterious understanding arise within his mind.

After a while,

he came to his senses.

"Fifteen of me, forming a precise array, would have the possibility to defeat the Divine Wind Valley Valley Master, Ye Yanshu?"

Zhou Changwang’s face showed a look of disbelief.

Upon further thought, he found it very realistic.

Even though his strength was undeniably formidable,

at least at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, he was an almost invincible presence.

Even the fifth-layer Foundation Establishment level, considered the top in the Qi Cultivation Stage, saw Situ Xuan Kong fall at his hands. He estimated his actual combat power should not significantly differ from that of a sixth-level Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But Ye Yanshu was no ordinary cultivator.

The opponent was not only a ninth-layer Foundation Establishment cultivator but also possessed a Foundation Establishment True Body and mastered the technique of divine abilities.

His strength was considered top tier at the ninth-layer Foundation Establishment level.

The gap between him and the opponent spanned realms, as well as numerous other aspects, rendering him no match.

Fifteen of him.

In practical terms, they could not possibly be the opponent’s match.

Form an array?

It would require an exceedingly intricate grand array, along with a thorough familiarity cultivated to a certain depth, with extremely tight cooperation, to have a sliver of a chance.

In actual combat, however, the situation changes at a moment notice.

A slight mistake could lead to death and the annihilation of one’s path.

"So,

the gap between him and the opponent was far more than the simplicity of fifteen of him."

Zhou Changwang couldn’t help but shake his head with a sigh.

This,

was the result calculated by using the Karma Desire Technique, leveraging the power of cause and effect.

For his first successful attempt,

he calculated the opponent’s general location.

Knowing that the opponent had not yet left the Divine Wind Valley Marketplace, and was a good twenty days’ journey away, brought him relief.

This time, he used the Karma Desire Technique to gauge the power gap between them.

The result,

was not too pleasant.

However, upon further reflection, he found it quite understandable.

He was never one to be arrogant or conceited.

Even in the previous battle where he slew the Heaven and Earth Alliance leader, Situ Xuan Kong of the fifth-layer Foundation Establishment, he didn’t believe himself to surpass higher-tier cultivators of at least the seventh level.

Let alone the seventh layer.

Even among sixth-level Foundation Establishment cultivators, many surely surpassed him.

The Foundation Establishment True Body, though strong,

could not bridge such a large realm gap.

Furthermore,

within the cultivation realm, although few had cultivated a Foundation Establishment True Body, it was not unheard of.

Take, for instance, the Heaven and Earth Alliance leader, Situ Xuan Kong.

Wasn’t he carefully preparing to cultivate a Foundation Establishment True Body?

It was merely because the materials were not yet gathered that he hadn’t succeeded in cultivating it.

In the cultivation realm, many must surely be secretly preparing to cultivate, or have actually succeeded in cultivating a Foundation Establishment True Body but kept it under wraps.

"My strength is still somewhat lacking.

I must double my training efforts."

Thinking in this way.

Zhou Changwang switched his focus to the cultivation of the Sword Formation Technique.

First was the Twenty-four Flying Heaven Sword Array.

This Sword Formation Technique, long before, had already been cultivated by him to the Great Success Stage, and in the previous battle, it played a significant role.

Next, he naturally intends to cultivate it to the Perfection Level.

Unfortunately, with his current spiritual sense strength, he simply cannot simultaneously control thirty flying swords.

If not, once this Sword Formation Skill reaches Perfection, he could naturally cultivate the Thirty Flying Heaven Sword Formation.

After that comes the Five Elements Yin Yang Sword Technique.

This is also a Sword Formation Technique.

Although in grade, it is inferior to the Seventy-two Flying Heaven Sword Formation.

Its actual power is definitely not weak.

To some extent, it even surpasses the Twenty-four Flying Heaven Sword Array.

In other words.

If Zhou Changwang had not focused solely on cultivating the Seventy-two Flying Heaven Sword Formation, and instead directly cultivated this Five Elements Yin Yang Sword Technique, he could have also displayed extraordinary power in that battle.

It might even have been easier.

After all.

With the time he spent previously cultivating the Six, Twelve, and Eighteen Flying Heaven Sword Formations to Perfection, he would have long since cultivated this Five Elements Yin Yang Sword Technique to the Realm of Perfection.

And naturally could have exhibited an even greater swordsmanship power than the Great Success of the Twenty-four Flying Heaven Sword Array.

A few days later.

Zhou Changwang finally executed the last Annual Ring Skill,

Suddenly, on the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree, which had grown to be seven feet tall, those spirit fruits unfurled.

They were fully matured.

"The Star Source Spirit Fruits.

Are matured.

Moreover, this time, a total of nine spirit fruits have formed."

A hint of delight flashed through Zhou Changwang’s eyes.

Even though he had long been familiar with cultivating and maturing several Star Source Spirit Fruit Trees, he was still immensely excited when this spirit fruit matured again.

Woong~!

Immediately, a cloud of auspicious clouds gathered amidst the heavens and the earth.

Fortune descended.

Without hesitation, Zhou Changwang quickly sat cross-legged and began to cultivate and absorb.

This Auspicious Qi was an extremely pure spiritual energy, containing various precious materials beneficial to a cultivator’s training.

It acts not only on the True Essence cultivation but also on the physical body, mind, divine sense, and even the soul...

Even though Zhou Changwang had already established his Foundation,

The enhancement of the Auspicious Qi still gave him a sense of comfort, offering a certain level of improvement, more or less.

Like now.

His heart and spirit were clear, his thoughts active.

He suddenly felt like he was drinking Enlightenment Spirit Tea.

His mind was inexplicably filled with many insights.

Unfortunately.

This feeling was fleeting.

Unknowingly, the Auspicious Qi dissipated.

He vaguely sensed something, yet seemed to obtain nothing.

"Indeed, after absorbing a lot of Fortune, there are some special gains.

The amount of Auspicious Qi I’ve absorbed now is quite substantial.

Just a little more.

Perhaps next time, I might comprehend something special from it?"

Zhou Changwang murmured to himself, feeling a slight anticipation in his heart.

Then, he turned his gaze to the Profound Yellow Spirit Soil beneath the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree.

After taking it all out, a smile naturally appeared on his face.

"One pound, nine ounces, nine drachmas.

Just a little short of reaching two pounds.

Next time, my Profound Yellow Spirit Soil will surely exceed two pounds."

Looking at the Profound Yellow Spirit Soil, Zhou Changwang couldn’t help but feel elated.

Initially, when he first obtained the Profound Yellow Spirit Soil, it was merely seven ounces.

It was initially intended for use in cultivating the Foundation Establishment True Body.

Unexpectedly, upon discovering that in the circumstance of maturing Third-Grade Spirit Plants and Fortune descending, the Profound Yellow Spirit Soil could spontaneously increase, enhancing its weight and quantity.

Therefore.

Even when he used part of the Profound Yellow Spirit Soil to cultivate the Foundation Establishment True Body, the remaining Profound Yellow Spirit Soil, through his careful nurturing and the maturation of each Third-Grade Spirit Plant,

now far exceeds its initial state, reaching nearly two pounds.

"Two pounds of Profound Yellow Spirit Soil, the total amount of spiritual energy it absorbs and discharges, is indeed astonishing.

It truly can greatly reduce the resource consumption for cultivating various spirit plants, lowering the time needed to cultivate these spirit plants."

Zhou Changwang sighed with emotion.

He thought for a moment and then scattered it on the Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree.
