Chapter 75 - 62: Forced Entry (Two-in-one)_3
Under such strict scrutiny, they indeed found some Xuan Yin Sect Cultivators preparing to infiltrate Qing Yun City. Additionally, there were a few Qi Refining Cultivators, who planned to impersonate Loose Cultivators and enter the Outer Sect of the Liu Yun Sect to farm.
Previously, a large portion of the army consisted of Qi Refining Cultivators, who were all from the Outer Sect. This resulted in many vacancies in the Spiritual Field Planting District due to a shortage of Spirit Farmers. As such, it turned into a great opportunity for Loose Cultivators, as they hardly needed to draw lots anymore.
Since these spiritual fields were cultivated by the troops, they could only be considered temporary laborers, able to obtain a certain proportion of the yield from the spiritual fields.
Once the troops returned, these temporary workers would have to leave. However, according to the rules of the Liu Yun Sect Agriculture Hall, these temporary workers would have the priority to replace the Spirit Farmers in the spiritual fields if their farming was qualified.
Therefore, even being a temporary worker made the Loose Cultivators overjoyed.
As a result, Lin Yi became even more cautious. Although his identity as a Grand Perfect Level Talisman Master had not been exposed yet, he still had to be on guard against retaliation from the Xuan Yin Sect.
On his journey, he did not notice anyone tracking him, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief. However, he did not let his guard down and intermittently changed his direction several times before finally reaching a mountaintop.
In the past half month, he had taken time out to visit this place again. After spending almost an entire day here and confirming that the place was secluded with no one passing by, he finally decided to stay here.
Lin Yi did not sit directly on top of the mountain. He chose a spot nearby to avoid being spotted from the bottom of the mountain. Afterwards, he made some arrangements, took off his upper garment, revealing his upper body, but kept his Robe of Mage tied around his waist.
He brought out the Liu Yun Ointment and began to apply it on his body. Seeing this, Yuan Yuan smiled, accepted the ointment, and began to apply it gently.
After applying the ointment, Lin Yi noticed that the effect of [Color is Void] had been activated. He slowly closed his eyes and began to cultivate. At this point, he had three titles, namely [Survivor], [Newbie], and [Color is Void].
He wanted to see whether he could successfully initiate the breakthrough with the combined effects of increased breakthrough difficulty and Enlightenment. If this didn’t work, he would use the Minor Blessing effect from [Small Compassion, Small Kindness].
Yuan Yuan, who was by the side, saw Lin Yi close his eyes and skillfully started her seductive moves.
Lin Yi started cultivating the Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind. Even though he could not draw the wind into his body yet, he still cycled the Qi along the specific route. Gradually, under the effects of Enlightenment, he gained some marvelous insights. The sounds of wind blowing over the grasslands, and rustling through Yuan Yuan’s hair, were clearly audible in his ears.
Images of Wind Transformation Technique kept appearing in his mind, triggering introspection. Both Qi and wind are shapeless. The wind can be felt when it blows over one’s body, but Qi is more mysterious.
Qi, though mysterious, can still be drawn into one’s body by a cultivator and refined. Yet, wind, an observable element, cannot be drawn into the body.
The founder of the Liu Yun Sect created the renowned martial art Nine
Transformations of Liu Yun. Therefore, this Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind must be valid. If initiation was truly impossible, it would not have
displayed on the title panel.
With the continuous insights coming from the effect of Enlightenment, Lin Yi gained a deeper understanding of wind. However, he still couldn’t successfully initiate. He was not rushed and simply continued his exploration slowly.
When the fifth day arrived, he slowly opened his eyes. Seeing the tired Lady Yuan Yuan next to him, he couldn’t help but shake his head. The Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind was indeed very difficult to initiate.
In the past four days, he had barely rested for a day combined with Lady Yuan Yuan. They gained numerous insights, but it felt like a thin film was blocking his path. It seemed like he was just a step away but lacked the strength to make the breakthrough.
Lin Yi was well aware that continuing to pursue enlightenment would likely result in no progress. Therefore, he decided to try entering the Minor Blessing State to see if that could help him make the final step.
Ever since he received the title [Small Compassion, Small Kindness], he had been liberating the bodies in Qing Yun City. Even in the month prior to the departure of the armada, he continued doing so. Now, his Virtue Points had reached 430.
Whether these 400 plus Virtue Points can help initiate the Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind remains to be seen.
“Lady Yuan Yuan, please, let’s cultivate for one more day, and we’ll go back tomorrow,” Lin Yi told Yuan Yuan who was beside him.
“Immortal Master is too polite, let this servant continue assisting you in cultivation.” Yuan Yuan revealed a tired smile.
Lin Yi opened the title panel and replaced his current title with [Small Compassion, Small Kindness]. Then, he gently tapped the Minor Blessing State with his consciousness. The originally grey Minor Blessing State immediately brightened.
Seeing that his Virtue Points were gradually decreasing, he quickly closed his eyes and began to practice the Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind. At this point, the effects of the breakthrough, Enlightenment, and the Minor Blessing State were all fused into one.
Under the protection of the Minor Blessing State, Lin Yi was directly struck by insight that usually had only a 20% chance of occurrence. Furthermore, the depth of his enlightenment was much stronger than before.
Gradually, Lin Yi seemed to comprehend the key to the Wind Transformation Technique. At that moment, all his insights turned into a sharp arrow, fiercely piercing the thin film hindering his progress.
Suddenly, he felt relaxed all over. It was as if his brain had received a refreshing rain shower.
