Chapter 194: Chapter 54 "Emperor You Great Abyss God Venerable Speaking on Bind Spirit Control Divine Mantra Wonderful ScriptureThe continuation of the Five Beasts Worshiping God Fist, which I annotated, is essentially the personal cultivation notes of Lu Jin. Although it is a commonly practiced Martial Art, Lu Jin had a deep understanding of this technique. He wrote numerous annotations and made corrections and optimizations to the technique, clearly showing his talent and interest in this area. Alas, the Five Beasts Worshiping God Fist ultimately remains a common Cultivation Technique, too simplistic and crude even if Lu Jin devoted his heart to correct numerous errors. It still ranks just above average within Inner Strength, not qualifying as an excellent technique. "Beast-Taming Life and the Five Beasts Worshiping God Fist... It’s a pity. If Lu Jin could give up everything else and focus solely on cultivating Martial Arts, with his talent, perhaps he could truly modify this technique to perfectly suit him, and in the process, refine his spirit." At this moment, wearing the identity of a Martial Arts walker, An Jing truly regretted it for Lu Jin—if one could use one’s power to completely tailor a Martial Skill to themselves and thereby break through the Martial Meridian, not only would the success rate greatly increase, but it would surely forge a foundation perfectly suited to oneself. Thus, Lu Jin might be able to break through the Martial Meridian with his own power, increase his lifespan, and not have to worship the Heavenly Demon. But this was merely a fantasy. In the real world, there aren’t so many who are wholeheartedly dedicated, nor are there many conditions for one to be so invested. Setting aside the Five Beasts Worshiping God Fist, An Jing looked finally at the longest-named and most spiritually powerful "Emperor You Great Obscurity God Venerable Speaking Bind Spirit Control Divine Mantra Wonderful Scripture." "This is... a quite profound Youli Dharma Spells Scripture. It can set up a Law Altar to control the undead, establish Ritual Tracks Formation to construct a Law Domain, and perform Ritual Sacrifice to communicate with Ghost Gods!" In this regard, An Jing had no clue, but the Subdue Evil Sword Spirit was very familiar with it, recognizing the essence of these scriptures at a glance: "So, this is how this fellow communicated with the Heavenly Demon and built a Law Domain?" "Even that Necrocontroller Demon was done so... but why? This is clearly just an ordinary Underworld classic for summoning Youli Ghost Gods, so why can it be used to summon the Heavenly Demon?" "Not too sure, I’ll research it slowly later." The knowledgeable Subdue Evil fell into thought, while An Jing remembered the Imperial Heaven Sacrificial Formation in the Hanging Fate Valley. It was indeed the most orthodox Imperial Heaven Formation, yet it could summon the power to control the Heavenly Demon—although it could be said that it forcibly commands using the power of the Imperial Heaven Venerate God, perhaps this also indicates that the technique of controlling Ghost Gods could also be used on the Heavenly Demon? Is today’s Heavenly Demon still truly considered the ’Heavenly Demon’ of the past? "Perhaps I’ll need to encounter the Heavenly Demon in the Tianyuan Realm to determine if the ’Heavenly Demon’ is indeed the Heavenly Demon... but regardless, these scriptures are extremely precious and probably considered as valuable as Divine Power Secret Manuals to Daoist Priests." An Jing might not study it himself, but he thought of Huo Qing. The other was also studying Formations... If this scripture is indeed just an ordinary Underworld classic, learning it might benefit Huo Qing’s understanding of formations greatly! Besides, You Ruhui could probably learn it too, although with her excellent legacy, she might not value this Dharma Gate. Beyond these Martial Scripture classics, there were other gains, such as medicinal herbs and Spiritual Objects. However, these gains weren’t significant. Most common herbs and pills were destroyed by the Demonic Qi, leaving only a few caskets of Essence Spiritual Objects. "Huh?" While inspecting these Spiritual Objects, An Jing was slightly stunned—because he ’knew’ all of these Spiritual Objects. "Rootless Flower, Moon Rainbow Stone, Reflecting Glow Goosefoot... and Streamside Cold Dew?" Seeing these Spiritual Objects that were once listed at the Li Zhen Pawnshop, An Jing had only one feeling: "Wow, all these great items burst out just for me?" But thinking about it, it wasn’t strange—after all, Chongyi Building was a major trading house in Kanming City, and it was normal for most of the Spiritual Objects at Li Zhen to come from them. Now that Chongyi Building had perished, these Spiritual Objects were all his! "All are great items; gather them all up." Because they were all stored in different cases, An Jing found it quite straightforward to pack them away, hanging each inside the pouch of his straw raincoat. The Rootless Flower could be used to venture into some Water Element secret realms. It was a perfect time to inquire whether the Essence of Supreme Yin could be extracted from the Moon Rainbow Stone, and as for the Reflecting Glow Goosefoot... although it was of no use for now, having it was better than not! As for the last item, the Streamside Cold Dew, it stirred something in An Jing’s heart, "Although this item has an attribute and can’t cultivate the True Spirit Eye, it can still be exchanged for other Spirit Water... If all else fails, could it serve as an investment for Nian Quan?" "However, I’ll see how things go. I can’t randomly contact him during this period. I’ll wait until the matters related to the Heavenly Profound True Talisman have settled down." Of course, apart from these Spiritual Objects, the Chongyi Building had many ’elixirs’. But those elixirs tinged with blood made An Jing grit his teeth in anger, and to prevent others from continuing to exploit these Blood Pills, he decisively destroyed them all, turning them into dust returning to nature. After completing these tasks, the Xuanyuan Pure Light had already dissolved within An Jing’s body. The surging Xuanyuan Light transformed into the purest Essence Qi, and a warm and comforting heat naturally emerged within his meridians and viscera, intertwining and rolling, following the path of An Jing’s Inner Breath circulation. In an instant, An Jing’s whole body overflowed with True Qi, causing even his outward straw coat to swell, stirring without wind, and a faint reddish-gold firelight gleamed in his eyes. He stood still, immovable, but the snow and blood ice around him melted entirely, even turning into steam that swirled around An Jing. The Spiritual Power Inner Breath cultivated from the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban and the Imperial Heaven and Houtu Method formed magic Prohibition runes within the steam, resembling starlight and the mountains and rivers upon the earth, orderly and containing profound charm. An Jing’s life cultivation was rapidly improving. At the same time, he faintly saw countless memories. These were the memories of all beings sacrificed by the True Demon Sect. Pain, torture, resentment, despair, and an unavoidable sorrow. It’s a human tragedy to be considered like livestock for slaughter, yet to be seen as a sacrifice and tortured by followers of the Heavenly Demon is undoubtedly the utmost suffering in this world. The dissipation of these memories was a release for the Soul Spirits. An Jing silently sensed all this and clenched his fists. Even among these memories were those of the ’Heavenly Demon Followers.’ Among them, the memories of Lu Jin, as the Necrocontroller Demon Lord, were quite clear. This erstwhile beast-taming genius was indeed a kind-hearted man. He defended Kanming City from the Beast Tide, won everyone’s respect, eventually became the Tower Master of the local Chongyi Building, started a new business, achieved in Martial Skills, and had a smooth life overall. But in his later years, he hesitated, clung to his desires, and failed to break through the Fifth Divine Ability at the last moment, subsequently losing his chance to ascend the Ascension Ladder, examine his own heart, and progress through the Martial Meridian for a chance at prolonged life. Consequently, Chongyi Building dispatched a Vice Tower Master, hoping he could train new people. This was the root of his imbalance and downfall. Lu Jin’s anger stemmed from being childless; his life’s meaning, everything he had built, was based on his career. And to him, the assignment from the main tower felt like picking his ripe peaches. — How could he be replaced by a fledgling after diligently working so many years?! — He had only failed once; if he could find one more Treasure Medicine, he could restore his Essence Qi and attempt to break through the Martial Meridian once again!
