Chapter 287: The Great Dao Oath, Gu Cultivation, Corpse Cultivation, Introduction to Minor Divine Powers
“The method of refining this fifth-level Tyrant Dragon Soldier is based on my family’s unique method of refining Treeman Soldier. So I am teaching you this Treeman Soldier Method here, which is also the specific method for you to use your mental power or thoughts to control the Tyrant Dragon Soldier.”
“But once you learn it, you must also swear an oath not to teach it to others!”
“In addition, I have a special thought method here: the One Thought Method, which allows you to more accurately and clearly integrate some thoughts, ideas, and steps into one thought, and then pass them to the summoned Tyrant Dragon, allowing them to do certain things according to your instructions in one thought, thereby reducing your direct mental control process and preserving some of your mental power or strength.”
“Moreover, at certain critical moments, when you want this fifth-level Tyrant Dragon to self-destruct, you can use your mind to control the Tyrant Dragon to run farther away before exploding. This is much better than having you trigger the desire to self-destruct nearby and then running away in a panic right after giving the order…”
So Zhao Yun, listening to his master’s teachings, began to practice in this large secret room.
The first thing to practice is the more advanced technique of the Grass Puppet Technique among the four basic techniques of people and factions, which was specifically taught by True Lord Longze, that is, the Tree Man Warrior Technique unique to the Temple of Spring.
Moreover, according to Lord Longze, the method of creating tree-like soldiers is half a step higher than the Taoist method of turning beans into soldiers!
Then, Zhao Yun followed the tree-man-soldiers technique that was passed on to him by Lord Longze in a flash, as well as the oath that came with it.
After reading the oath, he swore to the Great Dao: “The Tree-Man Soldier Technique that I, Zhao Yun, have learned from my master, Master Longze, will only be used for my own practice and will not be taught to others. If I violate this oath, my Dao heart will be shattered, the Great Dao will backfire, and I will be doomed…”
Then, when the oath was made, the golden light in Zhao Yun’s body had a kind of vague clarity, and he vaguely sensed that there was a special thing entering into his sea of consciousness.
Moreover, that special thing turned into formless and intangible once it entered the body, and then even the Golden Light Curse could not detect it.
“I think this should be something higher-level that has merged into my body to monitor whether I have violated my oath. It could even be that the heavens have sent down some kind of causal power based on the oath I made, and are monitoring me.”
After Zhao Yun made the oath, Lord Longze began to explain the method of making tree warriors.
And as Lord Longze preached, Zhao Yun gradually understood the method of making tree warriors.
And during the Master’s preaching, Zhao Yun also connected some of the basics of the Grass Puppet Method in the prerequisite basic method.
Soon, things started to get better.
In about two days, Zhao Yun not only cultivated the Grass Puppet Technique, one of the four basics of the Renhe faction, to perfection, but also, under the guidance of his master at the 4th level, truly mastered the minor magical power: ‘Tree Man Soldier Technique’, and traces of this Tree Man Soldier Technique also appeared on the yellow cloth.
[Skills: Treeman Soldier Technique (Beginner)]
[Progress: (15/5000)]
[Effect: Enlighten the spirits of grass and trees, and control them]
“Minor magical powers are at least Sequence 6, or some top-level Sequence 7, and only those with this ability can access them. My comprehension is really amazing!” Zhao Yun thought to himself.
Afterwards, after Zhao Yun had calmed down a little,
Master Longze looked at the fifth-order Tyrant Dragon Soldier that had been refined long ago and said:
“Your comprehension is indeed as extraordinary as Xiao Jing said. For ordinary Sequence 6 cultivators, it would take three to five months of trial and error to get started in the cultivation of minor supernatural powers.
In the process of my personal preaching, if one can get started in cultivation within 5 days, it is considered an extraordinary level of understanding.
Your entry in the past two days has exceeded my expectations!”
“And now that you have mastered the Treeman Soldier Technique, you have reached the most basic level of being able to control this Tyrannical Giant Dragon Soldier.”
“First, use the simplest and most rustic method to mobilize a bit of your blood essence and inject it into the heart of this giant dragon terracotta warrior. This is a simple process of recognizing the master. For other things, you can slowly comprehend them when you go back. But don’t summon the giant dragon lightly to cause damage in this Sinongjian…”
“There is also the One Thought Method, which is just a small skill. I will pass it on to you as well. Go back and think about it carefully, so that you can improve the development process of this fifth-level terracotta warrior’s true strength. Moreover, this Tyrant Dragon Terracotta Warrior is enough for you to use until the fifth level, and it will still not become obsolete. It will accompany you for a long time. Use it well, and maintain it…”
Afterwards, Zhao Yun obtained the little secret method of concentrating his thoughts from his master.
Moreover, after the fifth-level giant dragon treeman warrior recognized its master, he mobilized his mental strength and made it move slightly.
He also checked the spiritual energy in the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone inside the terracotta warrior. It was only half full now. It just needed to be placed on the ground for some time to allow it to absorb the earth’s energy and power, or other convertible and usable energy, through the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone and the characteristics of the tree-man terracotta warrior, and continue to replenish it with the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone.
In addition, the technique of the One Thought Method also needs to be learned quickly.
As for the minor magical power of growing tree warriors, this technique will also be included in Zhao Yun’s subsequent practice and improvement.
In addition, after Zhao Yun quickly mastered this small magical power of tree-man warriors through face-to-face teaching by a fourth-level boss, he also had a deeper understanding of it.
First of all, trees are entities rooted in the earth between heaven and earth, humans are the active spirits of all things, and the terracotta warriors symbolize threats as immovable as mountains.
Moreover, in the overall method, Zhao Yun also felt that it contained some meanings of Gu cultivation and corpse cultivation.
After all, this tree warrior method is not just about plants being transformed into tree warriors for war, protection, or planting.
It is even possible to refine corpses into corresponding terracotta warriors…
After the corpse is refined into a terracotta warrior, it can absorb nutrients and energy from the earth like a big tree, and can summon a projection of the refined body!
This is equivalent to the terracotta warrior being able to condense a projection fruit of a refined object on its own, which can then be used by the user.
When the summoned projection object dies, the projection fruit condensed by the terracotta warriors will collapse. Naturally, the tree-man terracotta warriors will need to continue to absorb energy and brew for a period of time before they can brew the projection fruit that can be summoned at any time again and continue to use it…
Afterwards, Zhao Yun thanked Master Long Ze and returned to Yuntian Court. He first carefully studied the One Thought Method, and then tried to focus on his own thoughts and some details.
After experimenting several times and gaining some experience, I was able to condense an idea that would last forever.
However, the specific steps of doing things in one’s mind still require careful thinking before one can fully input the process of things into one’s mind.
However, after gaining more experience, you will have a similar template for the steps of doing things, and there will be no need for additional analysis and thinking.
Secondly, the concentration of thoughts in the mind is an innate ability of every person or living being, but if one wants to actually transmit this thought out of the brain and into another object, this is a difficult process in another dimension.
It is just as difficult for ordinary people to release their mental power outside the body.
But fortunately, Zhao Yun is a cultivator after all, and in the process of improving his cultivation, his mental power naturally improved as well.
Therefore, every time you condense an idea of the specific process of something you want to do, you can wrap it up with your mental power, then output it from your mind and enter the body of another living being.
In this way, this idea with all kinds of narrative processes can allow this fifth-level domineering dragon to carry out work.
Therefore, when Zhao Yun became proficient in the operation of this little secret technique of “The Method of Thought” and understood its principles, the thoughts of controlling the summoned domineering dragon to do work could quickly condense in his sea of consciousness.
Then, by operating the mental power, the process of making this thought flow back and forth inside and outside the body is also relatively perfect.
Afterwards, Zhao Yun began to familiarize himself again with the giant dragon terracotta warrior that had just recognized its master and could change size as he wished and shrink into his hands.
He sensed the ability to summon a giant dragon, and then slightly mobilized the spiritual power in the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone.
In an instant, a huge and domineering dragon suddenly emerged from the yard where Zhao Yun was.
Due to its extremely huge size, Zhao Yun thought about letting the giant dragon shrink its size to about the same size as himself. Then Zhao Yun tentatively touched the dark yellow scales on the giant dragon’s body, feeling its abnormal defense, which was even more powerful than his own magic weapon-level armor of the General Po Lu issued by the official Divine Dynasty!
Afterwards, Zhao Yun activated the power gate that gradually appeared from the power storage in his body and compared the power with that of the fifth-order Tyrant dragon. The result was naturally a complete defeat…
After all, this is a natural divine beast, it cannot be compared to a normal one!
Then, Zhao Yun continued to inject his mental power into the mind of this fifth-level domineering dragon, taking over the control of the dragon and carefully sensing every small movement of the projection of the fifth-level domineering dragon controlled by his mental power.
But then, Zhao Yun realized that using mental power to delicately control the giant dragon was a huge drain on his mental power.
Moreover, Zhao Yun sensed his own mental power. If he wanted to fully support the high-intensity and sophisticated operation of this domineering dragon, the consumption of his mental power would increase exponentially!
Also, in about two minutes, one’s mental energy can be completely exhausted.
Therefore, Zhao Yun did not blindly use his mental power to control this fifth-order domineering dragon. Instead, he changed his method and used the mountain god divinity condensed by his top-level spiritual mountain god stone!
When a bit of divine power was released and entered the body of this giant dragon, one could feel that the control time of the divine power had increased significantly.
Of course, this is just a process of divine control.
As for using divine power as a substitute for magic power and mental power to maintain the existence of this fifth-order domineering dragon, it can’t last for less than half a minute.
What’s more, the longer it lasts, the greater the loss to one’s own mental or divine power.
If the mental power and divine power in the sea of consciousness are all consumed, the consequence will be a splitting headache. By that time, you won’t even have the energy to fight with others, so how can you continue fighting?
Therefore, Zhao Yun followed what Master Longze Zhenjun said. Under the current circumstances, the most suitable method for him was to keep the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone with abundant spiritual energy, so as to supply energy for the summoned fifth-order domineering dragon.
In addition to this, he used the idea generated by the method of one thought to directly implant it into the body of the summoned fifth-order domineering dragon, allowing it to do it step by step according to the steps he said.
This is the simplest and most convenient method of control, and you don’t have to worry about the huge loss of your mental power in every step of controlling the dragon.
This method of reducing the loss of mental energy is also a way to maintain one’s own strength during fierce battles.
Afterwards, when Zhao Yun was having fun “playing” with the summoned fifth-order domineering dragon in his hands, it disappeared with a “bang”.
It turned out that the spiritual power stored in the top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone in the body of the fifth-level giant dragon warrior was running out of energy.
Therefore, without Zhao Yun’s special control, the subsequent energy supply process was automatically cut off to preserve the top-grade earth-attribute spirit stone from being completely consumed and broken into pieces, thereby avoiding the consequence that this ability could no longer be used.
This was actually a protection mechanism specially set up by Master Longze when he was refining the fifth-level giant dragon warrior. It is for this top-grade earth-attributed spirit stone.
Of course, Lord Longze also told Zhao Yun about this protection mechanism.
Zhao Yun also knew this, and he had just deliberately verified the time of his extreme control to summon the domineering dragon, which triggered the protection mechanism of the top-grade spirit stone.
And after Zhao Yun’s test, the maximum time he could control was 32.22 seconds!
Afterwards, Zhao Yun let the giant dragon terracotta warrior stay in the yard temporarily to absorb the energy of the earth on its own, and with the help of the top-grade earth-attribute spirit stone’s ability to transform energy into earth-attribute spiritual energy, it could make up for the loss of spiritual energy in the top-grade earth-attribute spirit stone.
Then, Zhao Yun returned to his desk and continued his training for the day.
By the next day, it was the time for recruiting people as described in the recruitment notice that Zhao Yun had posted earlier.
