Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Her forehead was seeping with sweat, sliding down her cheeks.

Clearly, she was enduring unimaginable pain.

”Hmm, this part needs improvement.”

”I’m used to this kind of pain, but for other cultivators, it can be unbearable.”

”If one’s spirit and will are not strong enough, they might break away from cultivation due to the horrific pain, or even descend into madness.”

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

Fortunately, Zong Linjing’s spirit and will are very strong, and this bit of pain did not overwhelm her.

Zong Linjing persevered through the pain generated by cultivation, cautiously operating her cultivation technique.

Gradually, she felt her body begin to heat up, and the blood and Qi blood within started to boil.

The spirit and soul also underwent some changes with the body’s transformation, consciousness becoming more active, and the perception of the body slowly enhancing.

Lin Zheyu relied on the miraculous effects of source power, frequently using methods to overdraw his life potential during cultivation.

He had abundant experience and knowledge in activating life potential without harming the foundation.

After integrating these experiences and knowledge into various cultivation systems, he perfected this special cultivation technique, the ”Circulation Bright Light Guiding Skill.”

More than an hour later.

Zong Linjing’s somewhat weary face suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes, her gaze flickering with excitement and exhilaration.

Effective!

The effect was strong!

It was simply too incredible!

”Thank you, fellow cultivator. If you ever need my assistance in the future, just let me know.”

Zong Linjing stood up, bowed deeply to Lin Zheyu, and said solemnly.

Even without using spirit medicine and array for auxiliary cultivation, she felt that her state had never been better after cultivating the ”Circulation Bright Light Guiding Skill.”

If she were to use an elixir to recover and then start focused cultivation at this moment, she would achieve twice the result with half the effort.

This was truly too incredible.

”Haha, as long as it’s useful.”

”This cultivation technique is actually a defective one I found in some ruins, which I later slightly perfected and created.”

”We’re all martial artists, the path of martial arts is difficult, with one more fellow cultivator, martial arts have a bit more hope.”

Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

He asked Zong Linjing in detail about the issues and the parts that felt off during her cultivation process.

Then, he closed his eyes again, and fell silent.

Looking at Lin Zheyu opposite, Zong Linjing exhaled deeply.

Fortunately, this cultivation technique was obtained by Mr. Xiao from the ruins. If Mr. Xiao had crafted it specifically for her, it would be too extraordinary.

Just as Zong Linjing let out a slight breath.

Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes, took out a Jade Scroll, and imprinted the new cultivation technique within.

”Try it again, fellow cultivator.”

”I got this cultivation technique a century ago, and have researched it deeply. I’ve optimized it now, and there should be no major issues.”

Lin Zheyu tossed the Jade Scroll towards Zong Linjing.

”Huh???!!”

Zong Linjing blinked, her eyes filled with astonishment and bewilderment.

Is modifying and optimizing a high-level cultivation technique like ”Circulation Bright Light Guiding Skill” that easy?

Could it just be optimizing some trivial parts?

”Uh, no.”

”It isn’t!”

As she saw the new Jade Scroll, this thought flashed through Zong Linjing’s mind, causing waves of shock to rise within her heart.

She blinked in disbelief, her gaze at Lin Zheyu filled with confusion and mystification.

Zong Linjing’s heart was very complicated, with many things she wanted to say, but when the words reached her lips, they were left unsaid.

Finally, she gave a deep bow and thanked him, ”Thank you, fellow cultivator.”

”No need for formality, just helping each other.”

”In the future, Mr. Xiao might also need your help. I hope you can lend a hand then.”

Lin Zheyu smiled and waved his hand.

He had a favorable impression of Zong Linjing, she was a very decent woman.

Moreover, for Lin Zheyu, this cultivation technique didn’t mean much, nor would it expose his secrets. As friends, gifting it to Zong Linjing was perfectly normal.

”Here, I make a Heavenly Dao oath, if Mr. Xiao ever needs me, I will not hesitate!”

Zong Linjing said solemnly, even directly making a Heavenly Dao oath.

”You’re too kind, fellow cultivator.”

”First study the cultivation technique; if there are any issues, speak up, and I’ll see if I can optimize it further.”

Lin Zheyu smiled and waved his hand.

After helping Zong Linjing with a small problem, he began his own cultivation.

The Primordial True Skill had reached perfection, and the second shackle had been broken. Next, he needed to find a way to break the third shackle.

”First, optimize the structure of the Martial Arts Divine Pattern, then use the experience gained from cultivating the Chaos True Skill as a foundation to integrate the Lifebound Witch Pattern into the Martial Arts Divine Pattern.”

”In this way, the initial fusion of Witch and Martial Arts will be completely successful.”

”By then, one can begin the second stage of cultivation of the Chaos True Skill based on the newly fused Martial Arts Divine Pattern.”

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

The fusion of Witch Tao and Martial Dao was more difficult than imagined, and there was no way to accomplish it in one go.

It needed to be divided into many stages, gradually perfecting the fusion, and then transcend from it to create a unique supreme Martial Dao.

This was Lin Zheyu’s plan for the future path of Martial Dao.

This plan would continuously optimize and improve as his realm progressed and his knowledge accumulated.

He reviewed his plan for the future path of Martial Dao.

After confirming there were no issues.

Lin Zheyu calmed his mind and focused, the Celestial Eye in his sea of consciousness suddenly opened, and he began to comprehend the surrounding array restrictions.

The transformed Celestial Eye was very powerful.

Even when there was no Demon Realm invasion and the array restrictions were not activated, Lin Zheyu, through the transformed Celestial Eye, could achieve the effect of the previously activated array.

Time slowly passed.

Just as Lin Zheyu was immersed in cultivation, a strange change was occurring in the situation inside the demon cave.

A terrifying oppressive aura emerged from the depths of the demon cave, pressing down on the cultivators inside the cave, creating a sense of impending storm.

”This feeling again, time and time again, ha!”

In the center of the city, this was the core of all the arrays.

A stunning woman in red clothing opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the time-space node, revealing a cold smile.

Almost every time, she sensed the terrifying aura from the Demon Realm on the other side of the node.

Such an aura would only be transmitted when the Demon Realm launched a full-scale attack intending to use this time-space node as a breakthrough point.

Every time, the woman was fully prepared.

But what she encountered was always a mere pretense.

The demons on the other side of the time-space node seemed to be playing a ”wolf is coming” game, feigning attacks again and again, trying to make the woman lower her guard.

Unfortunately, their plan was destined to fail.

No matter how many times they came, the woman treated it as a full-scale invasion from the Demon Realm, never relaxing in the slightest.

”That little guy from the Martial Alliance, indeed a bit interesting.”

”The Circulation Bright Light Guiding Skill, an interesting cultivation technique, if modified, would even have significant benefits for beginners of the Immortal Dao.”

The red-clothed woman withdrew her gaze from the direction of the time-space node and looked at Lin Zheyu’s location.

Her eyes were deep, as if they could penetrate the array restrictions and directly see Lin Zheyu’s figure.

Suddenly.

While comprehending the array restrictions, Lin Zheyu slightly furrowed his brows and looked towards a certain place in the void.

”Someone is spying on me!”

Lin Zheyu thought secretly.

Just now, while he was concentrating on comprehending the array restrictions, he sensed an extremely obscure spying gaze.

If not for his Celestial Eye that had transformed once, he might not have discovered it.

”Who is it?”

Lin Zheyu’s brows furrowed slightly.

The spying sensation he felt just now disappeared as soon as he discovered it.

Even if Lin Zheyu wanted to trace the aura to find the hidden voyeur, there was no way to do so.

”This can be discovered!”

”Is it due to the powerful Martial Arts Divine Sense, or the awakening of spirit divine techniques?” The red-clothed woman retracted her gaze in surprise.

Previously during her spying, she mainly focused on Zong Linjing, so she did not attract Lin Zheyu’s attention.

But just now, she used the array core to spy on Lin Zheyu, and was sensed instantly.

This was simply too incredible.

”Even when I had just entered Divinity Transformation, staying within that little guy’s guarded array hub.

I couldn’t realize that someone was secretly observing me through the city’s array core.”

”How on earth did this little guy do it!”

The red-clothed woman was amazed.

Her eyes lacked any greed or evil emotion, only pure curiosity and astonishment.

The woman pondered, a flash of light passed through her eyes.

”Perhaps, if I bring this little guy along when entering that place, there might be unexpected results.”
