Chapter 355: Chapter 354: Inventory of Gains, 750 Acupoints “Finally, it’s dead!” Only now did a hint of relief appear on Bai Ziyue’s face. This battle, for him, was not particularly difficult. But in terms of danger, it was the greatest he had ever experienced. Diao Lengkui’s Spirit Shattering Technique, Body Splitting Technique, and Godslaying Technique—all three Curse Killing Techniques were different in effect, strange yet powerful. Especially the last one, the Godslaying Technique. Just its dispersing aura was enough for Bai Ziyue to clearly sense the terror within. He knew that if he were hit, even if he didn’t die, he would definitely suffer severe injuries. Therefore, in utilizing all available means, he resorted to performing that Desperate Technique, the Soul-Burning Sword Skill. “The Soul-Burning Sword Skill, which boosts power at the cost of burning the soul, could be likened to killing a thousand enemies while injuring oneself by eight hundred. *Even though I only borrowed its Soul Separation Technique and performed it for just a moment, my soul strength still suffered a slight damage.*” Bai Ziyue felt the stabbing pain emanating from his soul and a slight discomfort with his body, causing him to frown immediately. He hurriedly focused, sensing the state of his soul. After a long while, he finally sighed in relief, feeling at ease. “The foundation wasn’t damaged, nor will it affect future cultivation. That’s fortunate, that’s fortunate... Otherwise, the loss would be significant. Still, even so, I’ll need at least several days to fully recover. In the coming days, it would be best to avoid engaging in any combat.” A trace of caution appeared on Bai Ziyue’s face. “However, all of this was worth it. I finally settled the grudge and completely eradicated Zhou Qing, avenging the ambush he attempted against me.” Bai Ziyue’s eyes narrowed, yet an unconcealed sense of satisfaction couldn’t help but emerge. *Ever since several months ago when Zhou Qing tried to ambush him, he had been consumed with thoughts of revenge.* *Especially after breaking through to the Enlightenment Realm, this desire became even more intense.* For this reason, he ventured alone to the Demon Ridge Ore Vein, killed Fang Ping, and annihilated the Grand Elder party of the Grand Daoist Sect, even blasting away the sect’s mountain gate... only to find out Zhou Qing wasn’t there. Originally, Bai Ziyue had planned to return to the sect to specifically cultivate a Tracking Spell to track him down, but unexpectedly, Zhou Qing ran into him instead... Nothing could be more self-destructive than that. Following that, he slightly moved, darted directly onto the battlefield, and collected Zhou Qing’s and Diao Lengkui’s storage bags and Spiritual Artifacts. Without any delay, Bai Ziyue vanished in a flash. ... An hour later, Bai Ziyue’s figure appeared inside a cave. Sitting cross-legged, he flung out a small Protective Array Disc. This Protective Array Disc couldn’t withstand overly powerful attacks, but it could shield him from disturbances by beasts in the mountains and forests. “Hiss... The aftereffects of soul burning are indeed not easy to bear.” Just as he sat down, a wave of dizziness and stabbing pain surged from his head, causing his breath to catch and his complexion to pale slightly. After a while, he finally recovered. Mobilizing his Divine Sense, he took a breath longer than usual to bring out one Flying Sword, a black hairpin, and a Star Disc one by one. “The top-grade black hairpin has characteristics akin to flying needle types, highly effective against defense spells like spirit light and Gang Qi. It’s undoubtedly top-notch among flying needle Spiritual Artifacts, proving quite useful in crucial moments.” “The top-grade Spiritual Artifact, the Cyan Bamboo Sword, seems to be crafted from the main stalk of the Third-Grade Cyan Bamboo King, refined with many precious spiritual materials. It’s nimble and sharp, imposing very little burden on a cultivator’s Divine Sense. Though its power isn’t as potent as my Spell-Dodging Divine Sword, it has a significant speed advantage, making it fairly decent. Mmm, it should fetch a good price...” “As for this Star Disc, its ancient simplicity and innate spiritual energy exude a certain special charm, somewhat akin to my Circulation Inference Mirror, primarily serving an auxiliary role. However, unlike the Circulation Inference Mirror, this top-grade Spiritual Artifact’s function lies in amplification. When casting spells through this artifact, one could directly boost the spell’s power by thirty percent...” Bai Ziyue, upon examining them, quickly understood the uses of these Spiritual Artifacts, his eyes couldn’t help but sparkle. That black hairpin and Cyan Bamboo Sword were fine, Bai Ziyue wasn’t overly attached to them and didn’t mind selling them. But the spell amplification effect of this Star Disc truly captivated him. “Thirty percent, that’s quite significant. In others’ hands, it might seem a bit redundant since their spell cultivation is often restricted by training time, rendering the spells not particularly strong, sometimes even inferior to their Flying Sword attacks. But in my hands, it’s entirely different. Especially the Seven Evils True Fire and Shenxiao Five-Thunder Technique—already formidable in power. With a thirty percent power boost... even if it can’t match the might of Divine Techniques, it could definitely reach the pinnacle of the Enlightenment Realm tier. It might even brush against the Divine Realm level.” Bai Ziyue thought quietly, deciding to keep this top-grade Spiritual Artifact for his own use. Subsequently, he turned his attention to the storage bags belonging to Zhou Qing and Diao Lengkui. The two storage bags were slightly damaged due to the terrifying power of Bai Ziyue’s Immortal Martial Hand Seal. Fortunately, one belonged to the Sect Leader of the Grand Daoist Sect, and the other was from a Peak of Enlightenment Realm expert, who had ignited acupoints numbering over four hundred and fifty. These individuals were top figures of their time, and the storage bags they bore were superior in quality, almost equal to the one Bai Ziyue owned, belonging to the Sect Leader of the Immortal Martial Sect. So, they didn’t explode directly. Bai Ziyue spent some effort removing the restrictions on them and then took out the contents of the storage bags one by one. “Three Middle-grade Spiritual Artifacts, two Low-grade Spiritual Artifacts, three Top-grade Dharma Artifacts, and thirty-seven Second-grade spiritual talismans, Spirit Pills... huh?” A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Bai Ziyue’s eyes. “Enlightenment Pills? Among the Spirit Pills, there were actually Enlightenment Pills. Three jade bottles, a total of nine pills. If I’m not mistaken, these nine pills were likely formed in one batch, and they belonged precisely to Zhou Qing... Considering he once used blood ginseng and Holy Spirit Fruit to lure me, could it be that he specifically had them refined for the sect’s use? Yet, they all ended up benefiting me.” Bai Ziyue himself had once refined Enlightenment Pills, so he naturally wouldn’t be mistaken. After pondering silently for a moment, he immediately had his guess. *His heart was instantly filled with joy.* *These Enlightenment Pills were prized, and in the Sunrise Daoist Sect, their exchange value was three thousand Good Deeds, equivalent to thirty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.* *Outside, they could fetch over forty thousand, causing a frenzy.* *Now, with nine pills in hand, it amounted to thirty-six thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.* *Moreover, given the rarity of these Enlightenment Pills, the good things one could trade for would indeed be abundant.* “Just these nine Enlightenment Pills alone were enough to tempt a Peak of Enlightenment Realm expert to make a move. Not to mention thirty-seven Top-grade Spiritual Stones, two hundred and fifty-one Middle-grade Spirit Stones, and twelve thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones... In total, the harvest this time was around two million Low-grade Spirit Stones. Thus, my assets had reached eleven million?” Bai Ziyue took a deep breath, calming his somewhat excited emotions after a while. *In that eleven million, the actual number of Spirit Stones was about four million; the rest consisted of Dharma Artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, Spirit Talismans, Spirit Pills, and other valuable items, which needed to be sold before being truly calculated.* “Seventeen pieces of Jade Scroll Eye!” Bai Ziyue finally turned his gaze upon the Jade Scroll Eyes, feeling a surge of anticipation in his heart. *He was undoubtedly eager for the Curse Killing Technique that Diao Lengkui had performed earlier.* *Whether the Spirit Shattering Technique, Body Splitting Technique, or Divine Destruction Technique, they were all mysterious and powerful Magic he hoped to obtain.* “Star Soul Devouring Skill, Immortal Martial Glowing Light, Immortal Dao Skill... Heaven and Earth Sympathy Technique, Spirit Shattering Technique, Body Splitting Technique, Divine Destruction Technique, Witchcraft and Gu Poisoning Acupoints Atlas... I didn’t expect such a great harvest this time?” Bai Ziyue’s Divine Sense fluctuated, scanning over seventeen acupoints one by one, his breath immediately becoming rapid. *The Immortal Martial Glowing Light and Immortal Dao Skills could be dismissed, though precious he had already mastered these two Secret Skills, refining the Immortal Dao Skill to its peak, with all three hundred seventy-eight acupoints ignited. So he didn’t place much importance on them.* *However, the other mystic arts all deeply tempted him.* *Especially the Spirit Shattering Technique, Body Splitting Technique, and Divine Destruction Technique—the three Curse Killing Techniques, he had personally experienced their potency.* *Even though the Body Splitting Technique posed the least threat to him, that was only because of his formidable Physical Strength. When faced with other Peak of Enlightenment Realm Cultivators, that splitting force would be hard to withstand. Even if they weren’t shattered into pieces, severe damage would be inevitable.* *Not to mention the dread of the Divine Destruction Technique.* *Even now, recalling it left him with lingering fear...* “These Curse Killing Techniques, though labeled as Magic, were actually applications of soul attack. No wonder they could directly penetrate my various attack and defense means.” Bai Ziyue silently comprehended the three Curse Killing Techniques, insight flashing in his eyes. He also realized that the cultivation difficulty of these three techniques far exceeded ordinary Magic. *Because soul attack actually involved some aspects at the Divine Realm Level, with Bai Ziyue’s soul strength, without methods to replenish and restore, he could only perform them a few times a day.* *These genuinely required the persistence of time to be cultivated to the Entry Level.* “As for this Star Soul Devouring Skill, it was a pure Spiritual Sense Attack Method. Its intricacy was indeed far more sophisticated than the Shocking God Stab I knew. I could finally make up for another of my shortcomings.” Bai Ziyue began to ‘review’ the Star Soul Devouring Skill, nodding slightly. *In previous battles, he had suffered several times from insufficient spiritual sense attacks, thus naturally feeling content with the Star Soul Devouring Skill.* “The Heaven and Earth Sympathy Technique was an Immortal Cultivation Technique, supposed to be Diao Lengkui’s cultivation method, involving three hundred seventy-two acupoints, also considered top-tier. However, my biggest gain this time should still be this Jade Scroll Eye recording the Witchcraft and Gu Poisoning Acupoints Atlas.” Bai Ziyue picked up a purple Jade Scroll Eye and a smile appeared on his face. This Witchcraft and Gu Poisoning Acupoints Atlas contained a total of six hundred seventy-two acupoints. “Six hundred eighty-two acupoints, nearly a hundred more than the five hundred eighty-five acupoints I previously collected. Comparing the two, although many acupoints overlapped, they allowed my total collected acupoints to leap to seven hundred fifty.” *Bai Ziyue felt an intense excitement in his heart.* Seven hundred fifty, leaving just a fifty-acupoint gap from his original goal of eight hundred.
