"As for the remaining three months, the best among them will be selected for a second training session to train second-tier Fire Cloud Dao Soldiers. Even if there are only five hundred second-tier Fire Cloud Dao Soldiers, combined with the remaining basic fire-type Dao Soldiers, it will be enough to sweep across the entire world," Zhang Lu said confidently.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang couldn't help but nod. Just as Zhang Lu said, five hundred second-tier Dao soldiers, working together, were more than enough to sweep them away.
In this situation, there's absolutely no need to consider military strategy. Just observe the location of the enemy's central camp, then aim and charge!
For this troop of soldiers, there is no enemy that cannot be defeated by a single charge. If there is, then two charges will suffice!
As for Grandmasters or even Celestial Realm experts, it's quite simple. Just use military aura to seal the heavens and earth, severing the connection between these experts and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Killing them is not much more difficult than killing a chicken.
As Lin Yang walked, he discovered Jiangdong in the novel *Three Kingdoms: The Myriad Realms*, specifically Chapter 93: "East Meets West, Fossils Turn to Mud, So be it!" Anti-piracy mode is enabled; only half a chapter is available, and the content doesn't connect to the previous chapter.

Chapter 94: Fire! Fire! Fire! The Five Fireball Cult!
Cultivating immortality is difficult, it's really hard, and that's not just an empty phrase!
The very first step—entering meditation, visualizing, and using mental power to directly open the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows—has stumped countless heroes in their attempts to cultivate magical power.
Therefore, over time, another path emerged, specifically for wealthy individuals who lacked talent but were fond of the Daoist path—the so-called "entering the Dao through martial arts."
Once one's martial arts cultivation reaches the third-tier Grandmaster level, one will naturally possess spiritual power. Moreover, at this point, one's physique will be relatively strong. Switching to the path of immortality would also be very convenient.
Moreover, due to their martial arts background, most of these Taoists who entered the Tao through martial arts can achieve a mid-to-high level of skill.
Therefore, many people from wealthy families, but with mediocre talents, first cultivate martial arts and then pursue Taoism. This is probably a unique phenomenon in the main world.
"Why don't you let Feipeng learn too? With Feipeng's current strength, he can cultivate immortality very quickly. Even if he doesn't achieve great things, he can still cultivate magical power and learn a few simple and practical spells in a short time," Zhang Lu suggested.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang fell into deep thought. Cultivating immortality is not only difficult, but it also brings many benefits. For example, the simplest Five Elements spells are applicable to almost any world.
A fireball spell so simple that any first-tier novice Daoist could easily use it. Yet, this very simple spell could, in a crucial moment, even be used to kill a second-tier Innate cultivator.
Some outstanding first-tier Daoist disciples can even fly using magical artifacts. Some ride swords, some ride on white clouds, and some sit on flying carpets.
However, regardless of the path, one can fly at the first level of the Immortal Path. In the Martial Path, one can only fly at the fourth level. As for the Body Refinement Path, it's even more tragic; one needs to reach the fifth level to fly.
Therefore, although he had already decided to focus on cultivating the physical path, it didn't mean that Lin Yang couldn't also cultivate the immortal path. In any case, it was just laying the foundation.
“Alright, I have long admired the path of immortality. This time, I will entrust it to my master.” Lin Yang said with a smile.
After all, learning a few simple Five Elements Escape Techniques would be very beneficial to Lin Yang's survival and treasure-hunting abilities.
Moreover, and more importantly, learning these simple spells doesn't take much time. The ancestral aperture between the eyebrows has already been opened; all that's left is to cultivate magical power and use spells.
Even without Zhang Lu, Lin Yang planned to learn from Su Qing'er when he was in the main world.
...
Several days later, in a quiet room, Lin Yang sat quietly on a futon, with a miniature incense burner beside him, emitting a faint fragrance.
At the same time, immense spiritual power emanated directly from his skull, permeating the entire meditation room. His blood and qi also circulated at maximum speed, making him appear abnormally flushed.
At the same time, a spirit stone was placed on Lin Yang's lap, continuously providing spiritual energy from heaven and earth for Lin Yang to use anytime, anywhere.
In this way, the three essential elements required to cultivate magical power are complete: spiritual energy, physical energy, and natural energy. When these three are combined, magical power is created.
Now, Lin Yang's spiritual energy is abundant, and his body is in excellent condition due to body tempering. He has even produced a fourth-grade spirit stone. Therefore, cultivating magical power is a natural progression.
With a soft "ding," Lin Yang knew it was just his imagination. However, a new energy had indeed been generated within his sea of consciousness. Sensing this energy, Lin Yang knew that this was what was known as magical power.
"No wonder Qi cultivators can easily defeat anyone who dares to challenge them in the early stages. The quality of their magical power alone is comparable to the true essence painstakingly cultivated by a third-tier Grandmaster," Lin Yang said speechlessly.
No wonder everyone says those cultivators are invincible in the early stages; their starting point is indeed different. Compared to cannon fodder martial artists and scholars, they are many times better off. Their starting points are simply on different levels.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yang took out a book, which immediately emitted a Daoist aura. The book was inscribed with the four large characters "Taiping Yaoshu" (Essential Techniques of Great Peace).
Speaking of which, this book was a secret manual I obtained when I first arrived in this world. It's important in some ways, but not so important in others; it mainly depends on Lin Yang's identity.
Back then, Lin Yang was just an ordinary scholar. If he were discovered by the Taiping Dao, he would be killed.
The later Lin Yang was merely a figurehead duke. If someone intervened, the matter could be considered closed.
Lin Yang is now about to become the Duke of Wu, a truly powerful and expansive ruler. Even if the people of the Way of Peace knew this, they wouldn't do anything drastic. They might even ask Lin Yang if he wanted the next volume.
It can only be said that the view and the issues one considers are indeed different depending on one's height and position.
Lin Yang opened the first volume of the *Taiping Yaoshu* and carefully read through it. He discovered that it not only contained explanations but also many newly added annotations. These were all Su Qing'er's handwritten annotations, as she had also read this authentic and secret manual.
Therefore, although Lin Yang was just a novice at this point, he was still watching with great interest. At least, he wasn't completely unable to understand it, right?
"The Wall-Passing Technique allows you to pass directly through walls. Beginners should practice on wood first, and only after mastering it and being able to cast it instantly should they practice on walls. Once mastered, this technique can be combined with the Five Elements techniques to achieve the legendary effect of passing through anything. Although it's just the basics, it's very important, and besides..."
Looking at the instructions, Lin Yang became curious and started experimenting. However, there were no wooden planks in the quiet room, so he decided to just go through the wall.
Silently reciting the incantation, the magical power within his sea of consciousness reacted. Looking at the wall before him, Lin Yang lightly touched the ground with his right foot and charged straight towards it!
However, for some reason, Lin Yang stopped just before he was about to hit the wall. Looking at the wall, which was only three inches away from his head, Lin Yang said, "What if I crash into it and end up like Wang Sheng?"
Then, I remembered a story I had read in my previous life. The gist of it was about Wang Sheng, who longed to become an immortal. He went to Laoshan Mountain to seek immortality and the Dao. However, he lacked patience and was ultimately fooled by an old immortal.
Upon arriving home, he boasted of encountering a celestial being, claiming that no solid wall could stop him. His wife didn't believe him. Wang then imitated the celestial being, running several feet away from the wall, only to bump his head against the hard surface and fall abruptly. His wife helped him up and saw a large bump on his forehead, like a giant egg. She teased him. Wang, ashamed and angry, could only curse the old Taoist priest for his lack of conscience.
Therefore, the thought of failing to cast a spell and getting a huge bump on one's head, or even having one's face disfigured or ruined, is utterly tragic.
So, after thinking it over, Lin Yang changed to a different spell, one that was the most widely used and frequently employed, called the Fireball Spell.
There's nothing a fireball can't solve; if there is, then two will do! Moreover, looking at the fireball spell, Lin Yang was reminded of the infamous Five Fireball Cult from his previous life.
Five fireballs, the wind never ceases!
