It can temper a cultivator's will to make it more resilient, which is equivalent to cultivating the soul.
Li Yao has not yet entered the Refining Spirit Realm.
However, familiarizing oneself with the methods of cultivating the soul in advance will greatly benefit future cultivation.
So, without saying a word, he integrated the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
After the fusion, the flaws of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill were corrected.
It can achieve a cool transformation and maintain the effect for a long time.
"Ding! The gift pack has been successfully opened. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the cultivation technique: 'Absorption Technique'. Do you wish to consume 1000 Luck Points to fuse this technique into the 'Great Dao True Scripture'?"
The Absorption Technique is practically a bug in the system.
It can not only absorb the opponent's true energy and essence, but also their martial arts skills.
However, the Absorption Technique is not invincible; the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill is its nemesis.
The Absorption Technique is ineffective against the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
In fact, Li Yao wasn't very interested in the Absorption Technique.
Because the attribute-collecting system works similarly to the energy-absorbing technique, allowing you to obtain true energy, martial arts skills, and so on from others.
The difference is that the Absorption Technique is too simple and brutal, directly absorbing all of the opponent's true energy and martial arts skills, turning the opponent into a dried-up corpse.
The attribute-collecting system is essentially copying someone else's true energy and martial arts skills. The other person will not suffer any damage unless Li Yao kills or injures them.
Moreover, while the Absorption Technique is powerful, it is not without its flaws.
By absorbing another person's power, one can only obtain about one-twentieth of it.
This explains why, twenty years ago, Zhu Wushi, after absorbing the power of all 108 people from the Eight Great Sects, was only about the same level as Gu Santong.
However, in order to acquire more knowledge about cultivation techniques, Li Yao decided to integrate the Absorption Technique into the "Great Dao True Scripture" to absorb the advantages of that technique.
Therefore, he integrated the Absorption Technique and advanced the Great Dao Scripture to the fifth level.
Chapter 145 Abundant Achievements, Jianghu Monthly Report
To Li Yao's surprise, he also obtained the Shaolin Yijinjing from Gu Santong.
Back then, in the world of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, he visited the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository and searched for a long time, but he was unable to find the Yi Jin Jing.
Now, he has obtained the Yi Jin Jing with surprising ease.
The Yi Jin Jing is a treasure among the Shaolin martial arts manuals. Practicing the Yi Jin Jing can cleanse the bones and marrow, and cultivate unparalleled internal strength.
After mastering the Yi Jin Jing, one can form a three-foot-long wall of energy around their body, making it impossible for opponents to attack or break through.
It can be said that the power of the Yi Jin Jing is comparable to that of the Nine Yang Divine Skill and the Nine Yin Manual.
Therefore, Li Yao did not hesitate to spend 1,000 luck points to integrate the Yi Jin Jing into the Da Dao Zhen Jing and deduce the sixth level of the Zhen Jing.
They gained three supreme internal energy cultivation techniques in one go, making this trip a great success.
This time, the ancient three-way connection deserves a lot of credit!
We've reaped what we could, so there's no need to stay any longer.
So Li Yao bowed to Gu Santong and said, "Thank you, Master Gu. Farewell."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Gu Santong was stunned for a moment. He just left like that?
Could it be that the other party went through all this trouble to come to the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison just to spar with him?
This is absolutely unbelievable!
Gu Santong, of course, had no idea that Li Yao's visit was not simply to challenge him to a duel, but rather to fleece him.
Suddenly, Li Yao stopped and turned around, asking knowingly, "With your cultivation level, getting out shouldn't be difficult. Why are you willing to be trapped here?"
"Back then, I promised Zhu Wushi that I would not move an inch wherever his name was."
Gu Santong patted his chest and said, "How could I, Gu Santong, a man of honor, break my promise?"
Li Yao glanced at the iron tablet engraved with "Iron-Blooded Marquis" and said, "Is it because of this?"
After saying that, he flipped his hand and slammed it towards the iron monument.
With a deafening roar, the iron monument instantly shattered into countless pieces of iron, which flew everywhere.
Then, he smiled and said, "Now you can go out!"
"Such profound internal strength!"
Gu Santong stared at Li Yao in disbelief.
He knew from the fight just now that Li Yao's cultivation level was definitely not weak.
However, he never expected that the other party would be so terrifyingly powerful.
He believed he could shatter the iron tablet, but he could never do what Li Yao did, smashing the iron tablet into countless pieces.
It seems that his opponent did not use his full strength when they fought just now.
Li Yao saw Gu Santong standing there blankly, unsure whether he was frightened or hadn't yet decided whether to leave the Heavenly Prison.
Li Yao thought for a moment, then added, "By the way, your fiancée, Su Xin, is not dead."
"What?!"
Gu Santong was suddenly jolted, remembering how he and Su Xin had each received half a palm strike from Zhu Wushi's full-force attack years ago.
Even he was seriously injured, let alone Su Xin who didn't know martial arts.
He had always believed that Su Xin was probably already dead.
Therefore, he has felt guilty all these years.
He asked excitedly, "Are you telling the truth?"
Li Yao nodded and said, "Back then, she was severely injured by Zhu Wushi. Zhu Wushi kept her alive with a Heavenly Fragrance Bean. She is still alive to this day, but she can't wake up. She is a living dead."
Upon hearing this, Gu Santong alternated between laughing and feeling guilty, repeatedly muttering, "She's still alive, she's actually still alive..."
Li Yao shook his head slightly and continued:
"Also, she had already given birth to a son for you before she was injured."
"So you should think carefully about whether you want to stay alone in this dark and sunless place forever."
"Once you've thought it through, you can come find me at the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters."
"My name is Li Yao!"
After saying that, Li Yao immediately turned and left.
In the prison, only the overjoyed Gu Santong remained, repeatedly saying in a daze, "I have a son? I have a son! I, Gu Santong, actually have another son!"
By the time Gu Santong realized what was happening, Li Yao had already disappeared.
Just then, a voice suddenly came from inside the cell.
Gu Santong shouted, "Who's there?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed at the air inside, and a tremendous suction force suddenly erupted...
×××
Li Yao left the cell and swaggered out of the prison through the corridor.
Along the way, Li Yao lightly snapped his fingers, and the prison guards he had hypnotized gradually woke up in a daze.
These prison guards, who had been hypnotized by his soul-shifting technique, would find it difficult to wake up without his specific sounds.
Even the loud noise from his fierce fight with Gu Santong did not wake these people.
Therefore, no one knew that he had been to the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison.
Of course, except for the ancient three passages.
After leaving the prison, Li Yao wandered through the streets and alleys until he finally arrived at an extremely remote dead-end alley.
In this alley, there was a person lying on the ground, fast asleep.
Li Yao coughed lightly, and the man suddenly woke up.
He discovered that Li Yao was standing right next to him, and was immediately terrified.
Li Yao said calmly, "Go back and tell Zhu Wushi not to send anyone to follow me again, otherwise, I can't guarantee you'll be alive to return next time."
Indeed, this person was sent by Zhu Wushi to follow him.
After saying that, Li Yao disappeared into the alley.
The man who was following Li Yao stood there dumbfounded, his eyes glazed over, covered in cold sweat, and panting heavily, as if he had just walked through the underworld.
After leaving the alley, Li Yao headed towards the Jinyiwei (Imperial Guard) headquarters.
Suddenly, he was drawn to a strange hawking sound.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw two little beggars, each holding a stack of papers, shouting in the street:
"Jianghu Monthly Report, exclusive news: The ruthless and murderous demon Gongsun Wulong has been captured by a mysterious person."
"Jianghu Monthly Report, breaking news: The case of Minister of War Yang Yuxuan's alleged rebellion has taken a shocking turn."
"The Jianghu Monthly Report is both informative and inexpensive. For just one copper coin, you can learn the details of Gongsun Wulong's capture."
"Jianghu Monthly Report, good-looking and inexpensive, only one copper coin is needed to know the latest developments in the Yang Yuxuan case."
Jianghu Monthly Report?
This world is so amazing, they actually have newspapers now?
etc……
Jianghu Monthly Report, that name sounds so familiar!
By the way, it seems that there is a "Jianghu Monthly Report" in the world of Wulin Gaiden.
