CHAPTER 420: CHAPTER 419: ANOTHER EPIPHANY, THE GREAT TAOIST SKILL OF 1 YUAN

In the following period, Bai Ziyue did not immediately set off to the Outer Realm but instead wandered around familiar places from the past.

He didn’t hurry by using his body technique divine techniques; instead, he often relied on carriages and ships for travel. When he acted on a whim, he would summon the Little Black Dog, letting it lead the way.

As he traveled, he met many people and witnessed many things.

For some old acquaintances, he was always able to lend a hand with his skills, and he was generous in doing so.

*For deep-seated grudges, he usually took revenge on the spot, so when encountering people with minor grievances again, he could simply laugh it off.*

Occasionally encountering those who bullied others and took lives carelessly, he would step in, but he didn’t kill them; he abolished their martial arts and handed them over to the government.

Unconsciously, he left Qinghe Town, exited Wujiang County, crossed mountains and rivers, traversed dangers, and arrived at Celestial Spirit County.

He had never been to Celestial Spirit County, and when he had left Wujiang County earlier, he had inadvertently avoided Celestial Spirit County due to lack of direction. Once there, he only circled the County City twice before leaving, at a distance seeing the Immortal Cultivation Clans of the Lin Family and Di Family.

The two major Immortal Cultivation Clans, new and old, because of profit disputes, had sparked a conflict between Wujiang County’s Sunburst Gang and the Nine Seals Sect, but their conflict did not cease with the destruction of the Nine Seals Sect. Now, a year later, the disputes had become even more intense.

The second young master of the Lin Family had perished in an accident. Meanwhile, Wu Junhao, who had given up due to Bai Ziyue’s intervention and successfully obtained the Lin Family’s scholar’s assistant position, found himself in an awkward situation, now staying at the Lin Family’s horse farm as a general laborer, his days... not so good.

The Di Family’s foundations, after all, couldn’t compare to the Lin Family, and their properties became increasingly scarce, barely maintaining a tenuous balance thanks to intervention by official power.

Bai Ziyue glanced over, *his mind tranquil, seeing through the facades and understanding many truths, also discerning the fate of countless individuals.*

Immediately after, he rode on the Little Black Dog, crossing mountains and rivers, retracing the path he had taken with Fan Qingyu during their escape, quickly arriving at East City County.

Here, he received the Innate Pill promised by Fan Qingyu, but because of it, waves of trouble emerged. The first Immortal Family of East City County, the Chen Family, did not leave a favorable impression on him.

Back then, after he received the Innate Pill, he stirred the greed of the Chen Family’s honored guest elder, Zhong Baili, who attacked him outside the city.

The members of the Chen Clan did not intervene, but Zhong Baili’s willingness to act back then must have had their tacit approval.

So, gazing at the vast Lin Family Manor, and the Mansion Protection Array that enveloped the entire Lin Family, a thought flashed through Bai Ziyue’s mind, and from afar he delivered a palm strike.

*Buzz!*

The array surged, but shattered in an instant.

However, just as the palm print was about to descend and obliterate the Chen Family, Bai Ziyue suddenly dissipated the power within the palm strike.

The palm strike was to return the injustice of the Chen Family permitting Zhong Baili to attack him, but such a wrongdoing wasn’t enough to warrant the entire Chen Family facing disaster.

Thus, he delivered a strike, breaking through the opponent’s Mountain Protection Array, yet not hurting a soul, considering it a complete resolution of their karma.

After the strike, Bai Ziyue ignored the commotion and discussions it caused, serenely departing as if no one else existed.

Subsequently, he crossed the border between the Wuu Kingdom and the Daqian Kingdom, formally entering the Daqian Kingdom.

One place after another, one mountain and view after another, Bai Ziyue traversed and witnessed each one.

Throughout the journey, he did not cultivate; he merely watched the grandeur of the mountains and rivers, waiting for the sun and moon to rise, with no thoughts or desires, letting his heart guide him, leisurely moving along.

One day, two days, three days...

*He didn’t know why he traveled, but there was an inexplicable stirring in his heart, traversing landscapes, crossing great rivers, oblivious to the passage of time, and indifferent to weather changes.*

Until, in a small mountain village, he witnessed the birth of a baby. The baby’s parents, their faces etched by life’s hardships, wore serene and blissful smiles, causing him to shudder with a nameless emotion.

Silently, he sat amidst a mountain fog, a slight smile on his face, closing his eyes.

As various thoughts surged and erupted, *he understood, falling into a state of profound realization.*

In that instant, all the speculations he had been brewing in his heart regarding new cultivation techniques swiftly unfolded in his mind. Everything he had read, comprehended, or even just skimmed without delving deeply into, from all sorts of cultivation techniques, magic, and divine skills, flowed rapidly through his mind.

Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique, Cyan Cloud Technique, Celestial Spirit True Technique, 23-Layered Tower Sword Qi, Immortal Martial Dao Skill, Immortal Martial Hand Seal, Immortal Martial Glowing Light, Immortal Martial True Body, Thunderfall Skill, Shenxiao Five-Thunder Technique, Shrinking Inches, Silent Extinction Divine Light, Seven-Colored Tribulation Passage Spirit Light...

All sorts of profound mysterious techniques transformed into his nourishment, filling the gaps in the cultivation technique he was about to create, becoming resources to aid his deductions.

At this moment, the 1,296 acupoint diagrams became unprecedentedly clear to him. The function of each acupoint, its corresponding mysteries, were all evident to him. Coordinating with various cultivation technique theories, operating them skillfully, they corresponded and merged rapidly, verifying, and then tightly integrating together.

Involuntarily, one cultivation technique after another, each with different functions and encompassing different acupoint skills, quickly formed under this special state of enlightenment.

Cultivation techniques containing 800 acupoints, techniques containing 900 acupoints, techniques containing 1,000 acupoints...

He added acupoints bit by bit, referencing numerous cultivation techniques and using the spirit light from enlightenment, allowing his deductions to proceed very smoothly.

It seemed as if a long time had passed, yet also like only a moment.

A sense of clarity suddenly arose in Bai Ziyue’s heart, the erupting ideas quickly combined and took shape, then became deeply imprinted in his mind.

In an instant, Bai Ziyue opened his eyes, as if electricity sparked in the void, crackling.

The cultivation technique! It was complete!

A technique encompassing one thousand two hundred and ninety-six acupoints, containing the primordial number, flowed instantly within his heart.

Unconsciously, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Originally, I thought it was just a moment that passed, but unexpectedly, when I opened my eyes again, three months had already gone by.

However, at last, this technique was completed.

A technique containing the primordial number... surely there are more than one of such techniques in the entire cultivation realm, but this technique was created by me according to my own circumstances, and it is the most suitable technique for myself.

The impact I could wield from it in my hands would undoubtedly be the greatest."

Bai Ziyue was inwardly somewhat excited.

*His heart was actually quite ambitious; with his previous enlightenment, this technique could have already been formed.*

*But at that time, given his realm and foundation, he could at most create a technique containing eight hundred acupoints.*

*Even though a technique with eight hundred acupoints would be considered top-level compared to many techniques in the Desolate Ancient Realm,*

*it still did not satisfy him.*

*At his first enlightenment, he suppressed the formation of the technique, then he collected various ’methods,’ gathered numerous acupoints, until a few days ago when one thousand two hundred and ninety-six acupoints were complete.*

*He took advantage of the impending departure, while traversing rivers and mountains, as a certain inexplicable emotion brewed, he finally entered enlightenment once more, thus successfully established this technique.*

"This technique is entirely created by me, so naturally, it should be named by me. Thus, I shall name it ’Primordial Daoist Method.’

The primordial number derived from one thousand two hundred and ninety-six acupoints aligns with the great Dao. Even if not the most supreme of this time, at least at the Enlightenment Realm level, it is absolutely unmatched. Naming it based on the Dao is not undeserved."

Bai Ziyue thought internally, his gaze then fell on the Attribute Panel.

Sure enough, he saw the name ’Primordial Daoist Method’ distinctly appeared under the Immortal Technique column in the Attribute Panel.

Because he was the one who created it, he naturally did not need to practice it anew for entry.

However, to truly unleash the power of this technique, he needed to swiftly transform the circulation of primordial power within his body, condensing it into the primordial power of this technique.

"It is said that some techniques are so powerful they cannot be contained by the heavens and earth, thus requiring a special vessel to accommodate them.

*I wonder if this technique of mine possesses such a characteristic?*"

Bai Ziyue intended to immerse himself in cultivating this technique, to refine and transform his primordial power. In his mind, such thoughts emerged involuntarily.

Thus, with a flip of his hand, a Jade Scroll Eye appeared.

With a swipe of his Divine Sense, records regarding the technique began to imprint sequentially onto the Jade Scroll Eye.

"Pop!"

However, just as Bai Ziyue was about to complete recording the technique, the entire Jade Scroll Eye suddenly exploded with a "pop."

"Indeed, it cannot be recorded.

One must understand, the Jade Scroll Eye I took out is of extremely high grade, even Divine Techniques can be recorded within it and be sustained..."

Bai Ziyue’s eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, revealing a layer of excitement on his face.

The explosion of the Jade Scroll Eye, for him, was instead a good thing, further proving the power of the technique he created.

If the Jade Scroll Eye could accommodate it, though he would not necessarily be disappointed, there would always be a sense of regret.

Immediately afterwards, with a flip of his hand, a black stone resembling a stele appeared.

Dao Origin Stone!

It was the Dao Origin Stone originally used to record the Shrinking Inches technique.

His divine sense like a knife, he began to engrave upon the Dao Origin Stone.

As the technique gradually recorded, it seemed faintly as though a situation was spread across the world, making the entire forest appear to have undergone a certain special change.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

At the moment Bai Ziyue had completely inscribed the Primordial Daoist Method.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The entire Dao Origin Stone suddenly emitted resonating sounds, a sudden surge of lightning produced in the void, fiercely slashing down.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

The Dao Origin Stone inherently possessed the attribute of immunity to various magic and spirit lights; the lightning struck, only causing the Dao Origin Stone to shake slightly, yet did not destroy it, nor damage the ’Primordial Daoist Method’ preserved within!
