Passive Cultivation of Techniques: Training to Become Buddha in a Demonic Sect - Chapter 23
Chapter 23: Found Another Low-Grade Spirit Ghost
His Heart-Shattering Palm technique could not defeat the Buddhist techniques, so it planned to join them?
Lu Li looked at the last system notification with a strange expression.
He took a closer look and found that the name of his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had changed. It changed to Merciful Palm Technique.
Merciful Palm: Level 5 (Progress 1%).
Interesting!
He actually changed its own name?
Lu Li was amused.
Eh.
Since his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had joined the Buddhist’s side, it could evolve and mutate after listening to the Heart Sutra?
Lu Li’s heart skipped a beat.
He was willing to give it a try!
Thus, Lu Li stopped cultivating his qi as he sat cross-legged. He began to recite the Heart Sutra silently. “The Buddha realized that the 5 aggregates making up a person were but an illusion, and with this the Buddha was delivered from all sorrow and suffering… Amitabha!”
The moment he finished reciting the Heart Sutra, a clear notification rang out.
[Your Merciful Palm Technique has entered a state of epiphany because of listening to the Heart Sutra.]
[Progress increased by 4%.]
Another system notification popped up.
[Congratulations, host. Your Merciful Palm Technique has gained enlightenment because of listening to the Heart Sutra. It has evolved into the Great Merciful Palm Technique.]
It was possible!
Lu Li’s eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.
Interesting!
The ruthless Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had transformed into Great Merciful Palm Technique!
In the future, he could cultivate demonic techniques and let his spells to beat them up. With that, he could transform the demonic techniques into a Buddhist techniques. He could even use the Heart Sutra to evolve them.
Lu Li could finally relax as he thought of that.
When he cultivated the demonic techniques, he was always worried. He was afraid that he would be affected by the demonic techniques and become bloodthirsty, committing all kinds of evil.
However, the chances of becoming evil had been completely eliminated.
He did not need to worry anymore!
“Let’s test the power of my Heart-Shattering Palm Technique! Let’s see how much its power has increased after becoming the Great Merciful Palm Technique!” Lu Li stood up as his qi exploded.
His powerful qi was like a pot of delicious fish soup, and it was tasty.
“What a sweet qi… Die!”
Soon, a one-eyed spirit rushed out from the forest, and demonic snakes were dancing around its body. The malicious spirit looked fierce and ferocious.
Its qi was very powerful too, and it was at the peak of qi refinement realm!
Hiss!
The spirit was as fast as lightning, charging toward Lu Li at lightning speed. The malicious spirit let out a cry and hundreds of demonic snakes shot out like arrows, shooting toward Lu Li.
The one-eyed ghost was not afraid at all. Immediately, Lu Li split into 5 afterimages and dodged the demonic snakes.
Boom!
Then, Lu Li took a step forward and rushed to the one-eyed ghost’s side. His used his huge palm to slap the one-eyed ghost.
Great Merciful Palm Technique!
Although it was called Great Merciful Palm Technique, it was even more ruthless than his Crushing Palm. It had the power to flatten a mountain.
Bang!
Lu Li’s giant palm hit on the malicious spirit, His attack was fierce and hot, it was like a sun flying toward the one-eyed ghost.
The one-eyed ghost exploded on the spot, turning into streams of ghostly qi that shot out in all directions.
It did not even have the time to scream.
“Awesome! Its power has at least doubled!”
Lu Li withdrew his giant palm as he was quite satisfied.
Ding.
Another notification sounded.
[Because your Great Merciful Palm has exorcised a malicious spirit, It feels powerful. Your cultivation has increased by 500%.]
Excellent!
Lu Li’s expression became even more satisfied.
Since that was the case, he would continue to upgrade his Great Merciful Palm technique to deal with the crisis that might appear 5 days later!
Therefore, while he was silently reciting the Heart Sutra, he attracted a lot of malicious spirits and exorcised them one by one.
His Great Merciful Palm Technique and Ghostly Steps Technique began to flood the screen.
[Your Great Merciful Palm Technique has entered a state of epiphany after being enlightened by listening to the Buddhist scriptures.]
[Progress increased by 2%.]
[Progress increased by 3%.]
[Progress increased by 2%.]
…
“Your Ghostly Steps Technique has absorbed pure ghostly qi and greatly boosted its spirit. Your cultivation increased by 50%.]
[Because your Great Merciful Palm Technique has exorcised a malicious spirit, It feels powerful and happy. Your cultivation has increased by another 200%.]
..
Just like that, he cultivated for an entire day.
Lu Li returned to the stone house. He sat down cross-legged, opened the system interface, and looked at the results of his cultivation.
Realm: Level 4 qi refinement realm.
Heavenly Dragon Spell: Level 1 (Progress 94%).
Mighty Steel Spell: Level 1 (Progress 92%).
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 4 (Progress 3%).
Great Merciful Palm Technique: Level 6 (Progress 97%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 5 (Progress 95%).
The results were great!
Great Merciful Palm Technique broke through to level 6 and would soon break through again to level 7.
The Ghostly Steps Technique was also on the verge of breaking through.
Moreover, after reciting the Heart Sutra for a day, the Mighty Steel Spell and Heavenly Dragon Spell were almost about to break through.
His Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique did not devour a large amount of qi, nor did it devour the qi of 5 elements, its cultivation speed became abnormally slow.
If he wanted to cultivate to the fifth level, it would probably take a long time.
“Forget about it, I can’t rush it. I’ll rest for a while first. Let’s see what the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique will find when it go out tonight.”
Lu Li exhaled as he picked up the fishing rod. He wanted to get some rest.
At the same time, he continued to silently recite the Heart Sutra.
His Great Merciful Palm Technique continued to flood the screen.
[Progress increased by 2%.]
[Progress increased by 3%.]
[Progress increased by 2%.]
…
The next day.
Lu Li opened his eyes, and a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Your Great Merciful Palm Technique has broken through to the seventh level.]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has greatly increased its appetite due to your breakthrough. It has no choice but to go out and find food by itself.]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has devoured extreme ghostly qi in the Demons Cave. Your cultivation has greatly increased. Your progress has increased by 5%.]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has discovered a poisonous spirit snake grass in the Demons Cave.]
Spirit snake grass?
Lu Li’s brows twitched.
It was an extremely poisonous grass. Once refined into a poison pill, it could instantly kill a foundation stage cultivator. It was worth 8,000 low-grade spirit stones.
However, there would definitely be a poisonous spirit snake guarding nearby.
Lu Li thought for a moment and decided not to look for it.
He continued to train his technique!
Just like before, he would silently recited the Heart Sutra and released his qi to attract malicious spirits. Then, he would exorcise them.
Nothing special happened in the middle of his cultivation.
The Netherworld Ghost sect disciples in the other stone houses did not come out either. They focused on absorbing the pure ghostly qi in the formation.
No one disturbed each other, and everything was peaceful.
However, Lu Li was not able to catch a single fish.
The fish in the black water lake were so cunning that they did not take the bait at all.
Soon, it was night time.
Lu Li returned to the stone house and prepared to get some rest.
With a glance, he saw that his Great Merciful Palm Technique had already broken through to the seventh level, and his Ghostly Steps Technique had also reached the sixth level.
His battle prowess had increased quite a bit.
The 2 spells were also on the verge of breaking through.
He should be able to break through tomorrow!
Lu Li was quite looking forward to it.
The second level of his Mighty Steel Spell could grant him 4 times of his own strength.
His current physical strength was about 24,000 kg. With a four-fold increase, it was close to 100,000 kg of strength!
With a single punch, even a high-grade spiritual tool of a foundation stage cultivator would be sent flying!
Unfortunately, his realm was still too low.
Lu Li shook his head, calmed his heart, and began to enter a relaxed state.
Another day had passed
The next day.
Lu Li’s opened his eyes, and a familiar system notification sounded in his mind.
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique… went out alone to devour food.]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique… progress increased by 5% . ]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has found a low-grade spirit ghost in the Demons Cave.]
Whoosh!
Lu Li stood up, and his eyes were glowing.
What did he hear?
His Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique actually found another low-grade spirit ghost?
Without hesitation, Lu Li summoned the system log and checked it again to confirm.
His Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique had indeed found another low-grade spirit ghost!
Well done!
Lu Li was excited. He glanced his surroundings and confirmed the location of the spirit ghost.
[Spirit ghost’s current location: in a stone forest 20 kilometers northwest, inside a three-foot-tall, square-shaped black rock.]
Lu Li was about to start his journey!
Lu Li did not hesitate at all. He threw away the fishing rod, turned around, and ran.
However, he turned around and returned to the black water lake. He picked up a few heart-shaped stones before leaving.
The fisherman never returned empty-handed!
Moreover, these stones are quite nice.
Maybe Lu Li could present the stones to his future wifes?
