"And this Divine Movement Technique is a Movement Technique-type Magic at the High-Tier First Grade level.
It should be the technique Zhao Shanhe practiced, and it’s indeed not slow, quite suitable for me to cultivate as well."
Zhou Changwang looked at the Jade Scroll recording the Divine Movement Technique, feeling a burst of joy in his heart.
He could still remember that when the other party was traveling, his speed was not much slower than when he cast Perfection-level Light Body Skill, Flying Body Technique, and Seven Stars Stepping on the Moon.
Although all of this was because he was carrying Qian Xiaoyue at that time, it also showed the power of this Movement Technique.
Now, it has all fallen into his hands.
He believed it would surely fill up the shortcoming of his slightly slower speed.
After sorting and organizing.
Zhou Changwang was full of gains.
But he did not stop, merely categorized and stored various items properly, and then set his eyes on the remaining six Jade Scrolls.
These six Jade Scrolls were Ancient Bamboo Slips.
Each Jade Scroll had its own Restriction, which needed to be broken using a special Forbidden-breaking Technique to open it.
In the Cultivation Realm, there is even a specialized corresponding industry.
Forbidden Breaker Master!
For example, the Xu Zhisheng he first encountered in the Black Market was a Second Grade Initial Stage Breaking Forbidden Master.
Of course, with the Golden Light Breaking Forbidden Technique in his grasp, his breaking techniques were not weak either.
So he took out the first Jade Scroll.
His Spiritual Sense moved slightly, carefully probing within.
Sure enough!
A layer of Restriction barrier emerged, obstructing his exploration.
Once his Spiritual Sense forced its way inside, the Power of Restriction would burst out completely, directly destroying the Jade Scroll, and some powerful restrictions might even backlash against the cultivator, damaging the cultivator’s Spiritual Sense, Divine Sense.
Zhou Changwang controlled his Spiritual Sense, quickly using the Spiritual Sense Silk method. In an instant, thousands of strands of Spiritual Threads were shuttling through the restriction, bypassing the strong points and advancing through the weak points. In the blink of an eye, Zhou Changwang detected a weak spot.
His Spiritual Sense moved slightly, directly impacting it.
Layer after layer.
He broke through as many as five layers of restrictions in succession.
"Turtle Breath Technique?"
Zhou Changwang was stunned.
He found that what this Jade Scroll recorded was a Cultivation Secret Technique named Turtle Breath Technique.
According to the record, if a cultivator mastered this Secret Technique, they could enter a Turtle Breath state, extending one breath to three years or even ten years, effectively extending the cultivator’s lifespan.
In the Turtle Breath state, the world outside changes with time, but the cultivator remains in Turtle Breath, with their Divine Sense and consciousness becoming incredibly slow. Even after a hundred years, the lifespan would only decrease by three to five years, or even just one year...
"This Secret Technique is quite useful for those cultivators with little lifespan left, giving them at least some extra time.
For me now, it has little use."
Zhou Changwang reflected but also acknowledged that this Secret Technique is not weak.
Next, he took out the second Ancient Bamboo Slip and began breaking the restriction.
Then, the third, fourth...
"Cultivation Notes, Qi Clan Genealogy, Thunder Rain Skill, Qi Family Alchemy Skill, Cold Ice Fish Habits."
Zhou Changwang successively opened the restrictions on the remaining Ancient Bamboo Slips and immediately ’saw’ their contents.
The Cultivation Notes was authored by a cultivator named Qi Jun, narrating the issues he encountered in his lifelong cultivation and their resolutions.
It’s worth mentioning that this Qi Jun was a descendant of the Qi Family of Celestial Peak Mountain a thousand years ago, which is also where Zhou Changwang’s Thunder Spirit Rice originated.
The Thunder Spirit Rice was one of the specialties of the Celestial Peak Mountain Qi Family.
The Qi Family’s other specialty was the Ice Fish.
This Qi Jun was dispatched early on to breed Ice Fish, and Cold Ice Fish Habits was a Jade Scroll the family handed to him, along with lessons on the family-issued Thunder Rain Skill.
As for the Thunder Rain Skill, it’s naturally the accompanying magic technique for cultivating Thunder Spirit Rice.
However, after turning twenty, Qi Jun was discovered to possess talent in Alchemy, and thus he began learning the Alchemy Technique with the instruction of his uncle. Qi Family Alchemy Skill was precisely the Alchemy Method he cultivated.
...
"Clearly, these Ancient Bamboo Slips were found when Zhao Shanhe excavated an ancient tomb, coincidentally unearthing the grave of Qi Jun, the Alchemy Master.
Judging from the Cultivation Notes and Qi Clan Genealogy, this Qi Jun should be someone from a thousand years ago, before the Qi Family was exterminated, and when the family was at its peak.
Hence, these various Jade Scrolls were buried with the deceased..."
Zhou Changwang examined the contents of the Jade Scrolls, analyzing with some sentiment.
In retrospect, he did have a little bit of destiny with the Qi Family.
The previous Thunder Spirit Rice, and now these Jade Scrolls...
"However, the most valuable of these Jade Scrolls is the Qi Family Alchemy Skill, the Second Grade Initial Stage Pill Technique inheritance.
It also includes five Pill Formulas.
Namely, the First-grade Early-stage Pill Formula Grain Avoidance Pill, First-grade Middle-level Pill Recipe Rejuvenation Pill, First Grade High Tier Pill Recipe Antidote Pill, First-grade High-level Pill Recipe Flying Spirit Pill, Second-grade Initial-stage Pill Recipe Yuan Yang Pill..."
Zhou Changwang looked at the Jade Scroll recording the Qi Family Alchemy Skill, a trace of joy appeared on his face.
He had originally intended to study the Alchemy Method.
Among the various Jade Scrolls obtained earlier, there were also records related to Alchemy Techniques, and he also acquired a Facial Rejuvenation Pill Formula.
The value of this pill formula is inherently high; being able to refine Youthful Appearance Pills would certainly attract countless female cultivators, willing to pay a huge price to purchase them.
Therefore, he specially bought many Spirit Seeds from a spiritual materials store to cultivate spiritual materials, to save some costs for his alchemy.
