Chapter 149 Mission
Chapter 149 Mission
Back in his room, Ding Yi couldn't wait to start copying the "Spirit-Supplementing Manual".
Of course, while copying it, he wrapped the token in a thick coat and threw it in his bedroom.
Ever since witnessing the formation on the Hundred Secrets Pavilion, Ding Yi has been extremely careful with the things given to him by the Myriad Manifestations Sect.
After all, who can guarantee that there aren't recording or recording arrays on this thing? If the Myriad Manifestations Sect discovers your biggest secret, it would truly be a loss that outweighs the gain.
Soon, Ding Yi had copied the incomplete "Support for Automatic Completion" onto the table. He then wrote "Suitable for automatic completion" on the copy and placed it in front of him to wait quietly.
A moment later, a line of text gradually appeared in his field of vision.
[Currently available for enhancement; enhancement requires a lifespan of 69 years and 25 days. Enhance now?]
Yes! !
Ding Yi naturally didn't hesitate. All his efforts over the past few days had been for this very moment!
The next moment, the white paper in front of Ding Yi was enveloped in a faint light.
As the dim light faded, a small, thread-bound booklet lay quietly on the table. At the same time, a new prompt appeared before Ding Yi's eyes.
【The Great Freedom Visualization Technique for Nourishing the Spirit】
[The unique secret method of the Great Free Heaven allows one to replenish deficiencies in the divine soul by visualizing flying birds and beasts, flowers, trees, the sun, moon, and stars. This method, belonging to the middle level of the transcendent realm, is a rare and invaluable secret manual.]
"The Great Free Heaven Visualization Technique for Replenishing Divine Power?"
Ding Yi looked at the names on the book in front of him, then picked it up and started flipping through it.
Unlike other manuals, this book is filled with visualization diagrams.
However, calling them visualization diagrams is not quite right, as these patterns are very blurry, as if only the general shape is drawn without any details.
Moreover, this manual strictly regulates the progress of cultivation, meaning that one must completely visualize the first page before proceeding to the second page, and so on, to complete the visualization of the entire manual.
Ding Yi stroked his chin, then opened the first page of the visualization diagram and began to try to visualize according to the instructions in the booklet.
Unexpectedly, Ding Yi completed the visualization of the first image in just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a success that even surprised him.
"Could it be because I took the Heavenly Essence Nourishing Pill?"
The thought flashed through Ding Yi's mind, but the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
After all, although the Heavenly Nourishing Divine Pill only had an effect for one day, Ding Yi estimated that his soul level was about the same as that of the Great Perfection of the Yuanqiao Realm after taking it. Therefore, when he started cultivating the Great Freedom Visualization Divine Nourishment Technique, it was like a commanding view from a high vantage point, and the water flowed naturally into the channel.
To verify his conjecture, Ding Yi turned to the second page of the book in his hand and continued his cultivation.
Time flew by and it was evening.
Inside the room, Ding Yi put down the book in his hand, looking somewhat tired, and rubbed his temples with one hand.
"Even with the help of the Heavenly Nourishing Spirit Pill, the Great Freedom Heaven Divine Repair Technique becomes more and more difficult to refine as you progress. I've only managed to cultivate the third diagram of the Herbs and Trees chapter and I'm already feeling the strain. It seems it's time to strengthen it."
Ding Yi thought for a moment, then sighed. He took out a bottle containing Qi and Blood Pills and wrote on it, "Suitable for those who have achieved minor success in mindfulness meditation without side effects."
Although he didn't know if Xiao Cheng's Divine Sense could cope with his current weakened state, there was no other way. Ding Yi's lifespan could only support him until he reached Xiao Cheng's level of cultivation. If that didn't work, he would have to find a way to increase his lifespan and continue to strengthen himself until he reached Da Cheng.
The next moment, a line of text slowly appeared in Ding Yi's field of vision.
[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 68 years and 3 days. Enhance now?]
Looking at the number in front of him, Ding Yi sighed slightly and then selected "yes".
With a jolt, Ding Yi skillfully poured out the pills inside and examined them closely.
【Divine Illumination and Supreme Intent Pill】
[The Method of Refining the Spirit to Rejuvenate All Things, Ultimate Freedom and Divine Illumination. Using the Great Freedom Heaven Visualization Technique of Divine Illumination and Return to the Source, one can directly attain minor success upon ingestion. Remember, when ingesting, place the tip of your tongue against the roof of your mouth and contemplate your own body.]
[Remaining lifespan: 33 years and 158 days]
Looking at the description above, Ding Yi returned to his bedroom with a normal expression, sat cross-legged on the bed, swallowed the Extreme Intent Pill, and then slowly closed his eyes.
In an instant, Ding Yi's mind suddenly sank, and he was overcome by a strange drowsiness, which he then slowly drifted off to sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Ding Yi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly shuddered, his slightly closed eyes snapped open, and he suddenly released two beams of white light that shot into the void in front of him, disappearing after leaving his body by three feet.
But more than this anomaly, Ding Yi was concerned about his own spiritual state.
Somewhat nervous, Ding Yi carefully examined his current state and discovered that the expected pain had not occurred; it was still the same as when he took the Heavenly Nourishing Spirit Pill every day.
"I really can't feel it anymore. It seems that this Spirit-Replenishing Technique is truly extraordinary. It has only achieved a small success and solved my problem of weakened spirit. I wonder what effect it will have when it is perfected."
Ding Yi was somewhat surprised, thinking to himself that the Myriad Manifestations Sect really had something. This Refining Spirit Technique was not something that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry gang could obtain. He was truly lucky.
However, now that we've got what we need, we might as well leave this Wanxiang Sect. We'll find a chance to slip away and avoid being restricted here.
Ding Yi made up his mind, and with the problem that had been troubling him for days finally solved, he felt a surge of joy and got out of bed with a smile on his face, ready to pack his things and run away.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Dong dong dong."
Is Lord Li Xiang here?
At the same time, a servant's voice came.
Upon hearing the voice, Ding Yi frowned, but still spoke:
"what's up?"
"Master Li, the sect leader requests your presence at the Taichu Palace."
The servant outside the door heard Ding Yi's voice and quickly replied.
Ding Yi stroked his beard, thought for a moment, and then said:
"understood."
Upon hearing Ding Yi's reply, the servant left.
As Ding Yi listened to the servant's departing footsteps, he glanced at his half-packed luggage, thought for a moment, then took out the token from the tightly wrapped bedding, hung it on his waist, pushed open the door, and went out.
Since he had been summoned, Ding Yi decided to go and see what was going on. Running away now would be rather inappropriate.
Having visited the Taichu Palace just yesterday, Ding Yi naturally knew the way well and soon arrived in front of the grand hall built with green tiles and red bricks.
Inside the hall stood a figure, quietly gazing at the wide plaza outside the door; it was Zhou Ruoxu, the sect leader of the Myriad Manifestations Sect.
Ding Yi climbed the steps and began shouting as soon as he entered the main hall:
"Sect Leader, you've been missing me for just one day?!"
Zhou Ruoxu looked at Ding Yi, who swaggered in, and smiled slightly before slowly saying:
"Lord Li, naturally I have something to tell you."
"Oh? Sect Master, you flatter me. Is there something you really need my help with?"
Ding Yi burst into laughter.
"Lord Li, I heard you went to the Hundred Secrets Pavilion yesterday?"
Zhou Ruoxu suddenly changed the subject and asked.
"Oh, yeah, what's wrong? You won't let me see it?"
Ding Yi was taken aback.
"Of course not. Although you are the Elephant Lord, you can only enter the first four levels. If you can complete this mission, I can let you go to the fifth level once."
Zhou Ruoxu spoke slowly.
