The Lord of Void and Real

The Yellow Court Sutra is not lengthy; spanning from beginning to end, it has only seventy-two sentences. The white-haired elder Daoist finished reciting them quickly, then started explaining.

The golden monkey heard this, its eyes filled with joy, and it couldn’t help but dance with excitement.

“Wonderful!” Shen Luo, possessing the monkey’s body, felt intoxicated and involuntarily uttered a word of wonder.

The moment the word was spoken, it seemed to violate some rule.

His consciousness was immediately enveloped by an invisible force, dissociating from the monkey’s body, shooting quickly towards the high altitude.

Before he could react, his vision went black, and he fell unconscious again.

...

Hours unknowingly passed before Shen Luo regained consciousness. His mind slowly clearing, he shook his head and anxiously looked around.

At this time, he was back inside the mountain cave, with no more possession on anything. He had truly returned to his own body and was sitting cross-legged in front of the white crystal wall.

The strange figure inside the crystal wall had disappeared, and now it clearly reflected his own figure. The golden monkey hair was quietly attached to the crystal wall, emitting golden light.

The surrounding environment was the same as before. The experience just now seemed like a dream, but the seventy-two verses of the Yellow Court Sutra in his mind reminded him that everything was real.

Upon glancing at the golden monkey hair, Shen Luo pondered that he probably fell into a dream within a dream just now, and this golden monkey hair must have been the cause.

Moreover, the body hair of the golden monkey in the dream was identical to this golden monkey hair. Could this monkey hair be a relic of that golden monkey?

These thoughts circulated in his mind, then he quickly gathered his thoughts and stopped paying attention to these trivial matters. He closed his eyes.

Before, he was only focused on memorising the content of the Yellow Court Sutra in his dream, and had no time to comprehend its deep meanings. Now that he finally had some free time, he hastened to comprehend these seventy-two verses of Yellow Court Sutra to prevent forgetting them.

After a long time, Shen Luo opened his eyes, an excited smile playing on his lips.

He had almost fully comprehended the Yellow Court Sutra. Just like what he understood before, the other sixty verses of the Yellow Court Sutra extended, forming a series of cultivation techniques.

A total of seventy-two verses in the Yellow Court Sutra correspond to twelve major realms. The whole scripture surprisingly transformed into a profound cultivation method that one can practice from the Qi Refining Stage to the True Immortal stage.

Every verse of the Yellow Court Sutra is infinitely mysterious, far beyond the Nameless Cultivation Technique he has been practicing.

The Nameless Cultivation Technique Shen Luo obtained only contained cultivation techniques from the Qi Refining Stage to the Soul Condensation Stage. For his current self, he didn’t pay much attention to it, since he just barely broke through to the Qi Refining Stage back then, and his qualifications were poor, he was still far from completing the cultivation.

However, the self in the dreamland has outstanding talents. Particularly after being trapped in the Longevity Village and cultivating twenty meridians, his cultivation has been advancing rapidly. Until recently, he broke through the bottleneck unknowingly and advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage, completing his cultivation, with nowhere to go forward.

For this, he was secretly worried, but unexpectedly encountered such a great opportunity here and obtained the Yellow Court Sutra from a cultivation method far superior to the Nameless Cultivation Technique that can be cultivated to the True Immortal Stage!

Unlike the Nameless Cultivation Technique which focuses on mana cultivation, the Yellow Court Sutra is a cultivation method that emphasizes both the cultivation body and mana, refining the power of the physical body as well as cultivating mana.

According to the sutra, the practice of the Yellow Court Sutra can greatly enhance the power of the physical body. For every twelve verses practiced, equivalent to an upgrade of a major realm, the cultivator will gain the power of one dragon and one elephant. If all seventy-two verses are practiced, one can possess the divine strength of six dragons and six elephants.

The Yellow Court Sutra does not go into detail about the effects of mana. The scripture only mentions that practicing this technique can deploy a powerful divine power called “Three Stars Demolishing Demons”.

This divine power can summon the power of stars from the endless depths of the universe to seal enemies. Its power is extremely strong, especially against demonic ghosts and similar entities.

Due to its strong power, the Three Stars Demolishing Demons requires a high level of cultivation. Only when the Yellow Court Sutra is cultivated to the Soul Condensation Stage can one barely summon the power of a star. To summon the power of two stars, one must reach the cultivation level of the Great Mahayana Stage. To fully deploy the Three Stars Demolishing Demons, one must completely master the entire Yellow Court Sutra, reaching the legendary True Immortal Realm.

According to the scripture, the full version of Three Stars Demolishing Demons has a shocking and earth-shattering power, even capable of forcefully sealing a real deity!

Although Shen Luo has not encountered many cultivation techniques, he can understand the subtlety of this Yellow Court Sutra, which is definitely one of the top techniques.

However, precisely because this technique is so sophisticated, it places extremely high demands on the aptitude of the practitioner. Ordinary monks either cannot cultivate it, or their progress is extremely slow. They may not make any progress even after decades, making it less practical than some common techniques.

At this point, he suppressed the excitement and joy in his heart.

His highly talented body had more than enough capacity to practice the Nameless Cultivation Technique, but he did not know how it would fare with the Yellow Court Sutra.

“Thinking too much is pointless. I’ll know when I try,” said Shen Luo, soon sitting cross-legged.

He closed his eyes, recalling the entire content of the Yellow Court Sutra from beginning to end. Once he confirmed that his memory was correct, he slowly began to practice the technique.

In no time, the thick spiritual energy of heaven and earth nearby began to converge towards him like raging waves.

Because it came in such abundance and speed, a layer of white mist formed around Shen Luo, making his figure seem blurred.

He was both shocked and delighted.

The speed at which heavenly and earthly spiritual energy can be drawn reflects the sophistication of the cultivation technique practiced. The spiritual energy drawn by the Yellow Court Sutra was almost ten times more than that drawn by the Nameless Cultivation Technique.

While delighted, Shen Luo did not forget to circulate his energy, drawing in the abundant heavenly and earthly spiritual energy around him.

Unlike when he practiced the Nameless Cultivation technique, he did not directly absorb this spiritual energy into his meridian and Dantian. Instead, he gradually merged his body into the surrounding white mist of spiritual energy, allowing the spiritual energy to seep into his muscles and bones, slowly pushing deeper into his body.

During this process, he applied hundreds of different refining methods as recorded in the Yellow Court Sutra, including grinding, refining, stimulating acupoints, all aimed at refining his physical body before finally entering his meridians.

These body refining methods, which he had never heard of or even thought of before, opened up a whole new world of cultivation for him.

By the time the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy had completed all the refinement and entered his meridians, only half of it remained. The other half had been absorbed by his body during the refining process.

“So this is what dual cultivation of the body and the technique refers to!” Shen Luo nodded silently, clenching his fists as his body trembled slightly.

When the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy was refining his body, his body was not unresponsive. On the contrary, he felt a sourness and tingling sensation all over his body, as if countless ants were wriggling and biting inside him.

This deep-rooted sourness and tingling pain, even Shen Luo could not maintain his composure, he had to clench his fists and grit his teeth to bear it.

However, he had no complaints at all, his eyes were full of joy.
