Chapter 675: Daily Cultivation
After all, using the Immortal Abode for deduction had terrifying aftereffects.
That "supreme" state could not be maintained for long, and every second counted, leaving no room for waste.
In this case, directly deducing the follow-up of "Qingyang Skill" after obtaining it would be too extravagant.
It was better to first comprehend it oneself, at least to grasp as much as possible before entering the Immortal Abode to conduct the deduction, which would save time in reaching that state.
After all, with Liu Yu's current cultivation level, reaching the peak of the golden core mid-stage would take at least another twenty to thirty years.
Now that the follow-up of Qingyang Skill was in hand, as long as he could complete the deduction before then, it would not delay his cultivation progress.
"Creek~"
The wooden door gently opened with an extremely subtle sound.
Stepping into the study, Liu Yu activated the formation.
He took out the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, then personally ground the ink.
After a moment, the ink was ready. He picked up the brush, dipped it evenly in the inkstone, and began to write on the white paper.
In his mind, the contents of the follow-up for Qingyang Skill naturally emerged.
With the memory of a cultivator, just reading it once allowed him to recite it effortlessly.
At this moment, recalling the scene and content felt like a movie slowly playing in his mind.
"Swish, swish, swish."
Liu Yu wrote vigorously, maintaining a steady pace, neither slow nor hurried, with just the right amount of force.
Although his handwriting was not flamboyant, it was fairly standard, much better than the hasty scrawls of some cultivators.
The first eight layers of the Qingyang Skill had already been copied into the book.
This time, he only needed to write the last four layers, which were the ninth to twelfth layers, corresponding to the late golden core to late nascent soul stages, totaling around seven thousand words.
"Swish, swish."
The brush tip rubbed against the paper, producing an extremely subtle sound, as Liu Yu continued writing without pause.
His third stage body refinement cultivation allowed him to write vigorously without needing to pause for breath, creating a feeling of seamless continuity.
About fifteen minutes later, over seven thousand words of cultivation content had been entirely written out.
Like the first eight layers, each of the last four layers was copied separately, each layer written in its own booklet.
"Ha~"
Channeling his magical power, he blew out a breath that carried a scent, drying the ink on the paper.
If it weren't for not wanting to be too casual, Liu Yu could have been even faster.
"Not bad."
Looking at his results, he nodded secretly.
Over the years, every time he obtained a cultivation technique that could lead to the golden core or above, regardless of its quality, Liu Yu had developed a habit of copying it into a book.
Over time, his calligraphy had improved quite a bit, looking much more fluid than before.
"Well, every cultivator who has seen it has said it's good."
"It's certainly not Liu's self-praise~"
Thinking of this, Liu Yu smiled slightly.
For some reason, he recalled his fellow disciples like Wu Chang, and the scenes of those cultivators coming to seek after his "authentic work."
"Unknowingly, I have already turned two hundred and four years old."
"The batch of fellow disciples who graduated from the other院 with me, if they couldn't establish their foundation, they must have already passed away and sat into meditation by now."
"Grasses grow over their graves."
"What these people sought in the way of immortals turned out to be just a futile endeavor. What was it all for?!"
Thinking of this, Liu Yu sighed, feeling a sense of nostalgia rising within him.
"Even the road back is blocked by the Transverse Mountain Range. I don’t know when I’ll return to Tian Nan."
"Even though my strength is no longer what it used to be, without the instantaneous travel talisman and the cooperation of the monster villains, I really have no confidence in returning."
