As for other methods, Ning Ri didn't look closely and directly used the [Quantum Fluctuation Speed Reading Method] to finish...

Anyway, the skill has already been recorded by the panel.

It's estimated that those methods won't affect the panel's ability to record skills.

In short, in each method of eliminating anomalies and refining the Heavenly Dao, everyone adopted a different approach.

Some people treated the anomaly as a normal person, like smoking its eyes.

Some people treated the anomaly as a person with emotions, like messing with its mentality.

Some people treated the anomaly as having sensitive skin, like tickling it until it couldn't stand it.

He felt that this [Heaven Defying Foundation Establishment Method] should have a disclaimer: Cultivators without discernment abilities should watch under the supervision of a guardian.

Can normal people discern this?

However, on second thought, perhaps because there are many types of anomalies, different methods might be needed to deal with different anomalies.

Anomalies are broadly divided into innate anomalies and acquired anomalies, but perhaps there are also sub-fields, such as eye anomalies that are afraid of oily smoke, or worker anomalies that are afraid of being scapegoated...

After thinking for a long time, Ning Ri temporarily suppressed his wild imagination.

Anomalies are not people, and one cannot think about problems this way.

But all in all, his realization after reading the entire text was—

The [Heaven Defying Foundation Establishment Method] is very idealistic.

Whether you can refine anomalies depends solely on whether you believe in your own Heaven Defying path...

As long as you hold firm to your own Heaven Defying path and believe in your own strength, you will not be affected and can even eliminate the anomalies.

But if you are not confident enough, you will be utterly defeated, completely eroded and assimilated by the anomalies.

The principle behind this is a bit like—

Refining anomalies will lead to mental illness, so I'll get a mental illness that I like and believe in first.

Your mental illness won't be able to occupy my high ground of thought.

Of course, it needs to be beautified a bit, so this should be called imprinting a strong belief in oneself first, so that anomalies cannot affect you.

Next, Ning Ri also discovered that at the bottom of the cultivation method of this [Heaven Defying Foundation Establishment Method], there was a hand seal and a sentence:

"Anyone can share your Heaven Defying insights in the Disciple Token, whether in real name or anonymously. If selected, it can be added to the [Heaven Defying Foundation Establishment Method]!"

Ning Ri: "..."

This is a shared document?!

Also.

Zhou Hai actually added a note in the cultivation method:

"Ning Ri, not everyone needs to use anomalies to establish their foundation."

"Many of our elders directly established their foundation using Heaven and Earth Rare Treasures or Spiritual Roots."

"For example, I chose the Innate Foundation Establishment Method back then because I couldn't resist the influence of anomalies."

"I have an Earth Spiritual Root, and after combining it with Heaven and Earth Rare Treasures, I achieved Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment."

"So, you can also consider making a decision after repairing your Spiritual Root!"

When he read this passage, Ning Ri's first reaction was—

No wonder you are only elders, the one who dared to smoke anomalies with smoky atmosphere has already become the Grandmaster.

After this thought, Ning Ri quickly scolded himself a few times.

What a dirty mind!

What a slave to points, can you really see problems like this?

How can you be so distorted by power?

How can a dignified anomaly be afraid of smoky atmosphere?

Elder Zhou also said this to comfort himself for his own good!

However, Ning Ri took back his words when he saw what came later.

Because Zhou Hai added another sentence—

"But if you are truly confident in yourself, you can also consider using anomalies to establish your foundation!"

"I have great confidence in you."

Ning Ri: "..."

To be honest, he now understood why Chen Xingfeng felt that the Heaven Defying Sect was not a good place.

Other people were unwilling to let their disciples get involved with anomalies, at most they would go into anomalies to challenge and get treasures, and even then there were many side effects.

For example, Jiang Wu, who was possessed by [Fear Anomaly], would go into a sarcastic mode with everyone he met.

But the Heaven Defying Sect, on the other hand, boldly adopted the anomaly foundation establishment method with a strong innovative idealistic color!

Moreover, Ning Ri felt that the Heaven Defying Sect might not be as simple as it seemed.

This was because the path of the Heaven Defying Dao followed by the creator of the Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique seemed unrelated to these Foundation Establishment methods.

But Ning Ri quickly understood—

According to Senior Brother Li Cheng, the Heaven Defying Sect had both traditional and new-style cultivation factions.

The creator of the [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique] must have followed the traditional cultivation faction.

That person probably intended to cultivate diligently themselves and then, when facing tribulation, let a substitute die instead…

Precisely because of this.

At this very moment, after combining the [multiple-choice questions] Elder Zhou Hai had given him, the [Research on Heaven Defying Sect Factions], and the [Current Status of the Heaven Defying Sect Grandmaster] mentioned by Chen Xingfeng, Ning Ri had a clear idea—

In reality, most of the elders of the Heaven Defying Sect probably didn't want him to join the inner sect early, nor did they want them, the elders, to search for pills to repair spiritual roots, or even for him to try to solve his own spiritual root problems.

What they truly hoped for was for him to forge his own Heaven Defying path through his own efforts!

Just like the Grandmaster of the Heaven Defying Sect in the past, who relied on his own strength to soar!

But Ning Ri felt he didn't need to ponder his own Heaven Defying path.

In any case, his cultivation had only two methods:

First, practice the blade.

Second, add points.

He intended to establish his foundation with the panel, becoming a panel cultivator. He also believed the panel could definitely help him eliminate anomalies and refine the Heavenly Dao.

As for whether the panel would use the [Smoked Anomaly Method] or the [Anomaly Takes the Blame Method] or some other method for refinement, he was indifferent…

The panel had an ability to optimize skills.

Perhaps the panel had already combined this unverified, negative information and created a reliable method.

But the most crucial prerequisite remained—

How could he obtain anomalies?

If this problem couldn't be solved, he felt it would be best to withdraw from the Heaven Defying Sect, join a major sect, and then cooperate with the Craftsmanship Tower to make money.

Creating Qi Washing Magic Treasures to help Turbid Qi Cultivators refine Spiritual Energy was something he loved doing.

And he loved it even more if he could collect more Spirit Stones.

Ning Ri got up, intending to leave the quiet room and return to the Heaven Defying Sect first.

He would find Elder Zhou Hai to chat and see if he could find an anomaly.

However, he suddenly thought of something, and his heart stirred slightly—

Wait.

Was the [Yin De Sect] that Jiang Wen and Jiang Wu went to also an anomaly?

Jiang Wen and Jiang Wu seemed to have failed, but even so, they didn't die. This indicated that the risk of the [Yin De Sect] should not be that great.

This was very suitable for a novice like him to explore.

He would ask about it later!

Then, Ning Ri prepared to leave the quiet room.

But as he stood up, his heart suddenly stirred—

Had he forgotten something?

So, he immediately looked inward at his body and immediately discovered an abnormality…

Ning Ri murmured, "This soul split, why does it feel a bit off?"

Previously, when he was at the Heaven Defying Sect, the strength of his soul split was only at Third Stage Qi Refining.

But at this very moment, he realized that his soul split's cultivation had somehow reached the peak of Qi Refining.

Upon realizing this, Ning Ri couldn't help but be slightly stunned. How did it increase?

The [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique] given by Elder Zhou Hai stated that neither the [Divine Soul Shell] cultivated to resist anomalies nor the [Little Soul Split] used for transportation could improve cultivation.

Immediately, Ning Ri showed a thoughtful expression:

"It seems that after being adjusted by the panel, the soul split from the Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique can increase in cultivation along with my strength? Is it only by doing this that one can deceive the Heavenly Dao?"

"However, besides this, does this soul split have any other abilities?"

Ning Ri thought for a moment and decided to directly add eighty skill points to the [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique].

He had earned a hundred skill points from the recent artifact refining quest, so he had plenty of ammunition.

[Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique]: 100 (Resettable)

But to Ning Ri's disappointment, although the skill changed on the panel, the soul split showed no change.

After staring at the unchanged soul split for a long time, Ning Ri scratched his head and reset the [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique].

He had intended to reset the points anyway, preparing to re-assign them for transportation.

After adding [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique] back to twenty points, Ning Ri quickly left the quiet room...

As soon as he stepped out of the quiet room, Ning Ri saw two people standing at the door—

Yang Xingming and Chen Xingfeng!

They were chatting...

Seeing these two, Ning Ri was stunned.

What were these two doing here?

As soon as Ning Ri came out, Yang Xingming looked at him and smiled, but after just a slight smile, his expression suddenly froze...

Seeing Yang Xingming's expression, Chen Xingfeng immediately sensed something was wrong. He also looked at Ning Ri and was instantly stunned...

At this moment, neither of them spoke.

Ning Ri blinked, then tentatively asked with a smile, "Two seniors, what's wrong?!"

Then, Yang Xingming rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

The next moment, he gasped:

"Hiss!!!!"

"Peak Qi Refining??????"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Ning Ri, who had been smiling, felt his heart sink—

It's bad!

I forgot to reset my stats! He had originally planned to reset his stats after coming out, which was why he had requested a quiet room that could conceal his aura.

When he was about to leave the quiet room, he wondered if he had forgotten something, but his attention was drawn to [Heaven Defying Soul Splitting Technique], and he completely forgot about it.

Now that he was distracted, he forgot to reset his stats!

This is a disaster...

Yang Xingming's expression couldn't be described as mere shock. He asked, "Is the time flow in the quiet room different from the outside?!"

Ning Ri: "..."

Yang Xingming was about to return to Lingxi Immortal Sect. Before leaving, he planned to give Ning Ri a gift, so Chen Xingfeng was waiting with him.

But Yang Xingming never expected that Ning Ri, who walked out, would look like this!

Chen Xingfeng was equally surprised and exclaimed in horror, "What did you do? Didn't you say your Spiritual Root was not good?"

Weren't you at Third Stage Qi Refining when you went in just now?

How are you at Peak Qi Refining now???

Looking at the two of them, Ning Ri's mind raced. Finally, he chuckled awkwardly and said, "Two seniors, this junior believes that although this junior's Spiritual Root might not be very good, but..."

"It's actually normal for this junior's Qi Refining realm to break through quickly."

"After all, in this junior's opinion, good artifact refining talent is equivalent to good Qi Refining talent. And this junior has received guidance from Master Xingfeng in artifact refining these past two days, and my artifact refining skills have been fully honed, with rapid progress. Because of this, isn't it also normal for this junior's Qi Refining realm to suddenly break through?"

"Haha, does that make some sense?"

Chen Xingfeng: "???"

Yang Xingming: "???"
