In fact, there is one thing that Li Xiuchang has never understood.
"Anointing" is the top Daoist secret technique, but Preaching Ranking is Confucian Treasure.
Why is Preaching Ranking's reward the secret of Daoism?
You think someone else's secret technique is useful, so you use it?
However, when he received Anointing, it was as if he was having a lucid dream. When he opened his eyes and looked at the preacher beside his ear, he realized that it was an old master with a kind eyes and a smile.
If it weren't for the aura behind the old master that was incompatible with Confucianism and the vague Tai Chi pattern, Li Xiuchang would have almost been deceived.
So this is a Confucian improvement of the "Anointing" secret technique as a "face-saving project"?
Maybe the preacher here was originally an old Daoist priest, and was replaced by an old master by a Confucianist, but the replacement was not clean enough and details remained.
But it doesn't matter whether he is an old master or an old Daoist priest, as long as it does not affect the effectiveness of his preaching, Li Xiuchang doesn't care about the others.
The lotus flower bloomed in the old master's mouth, and every word fell directly into the sea of consciousness of Li Xiuchang, as if seeds were sown, taking root and sprouting there.
Li Xiuchang was in a trance, as if he had fallen into a dream within a dream, where he continued to plant and cultivate Spirit Plant, constantly cooking spiritual dishes, imperial ghosts, refining elixirs, drawing talismans, setting up formations, brewing fine wine, and occasionally tossing Natal Magic Treasure in Dantian.
All in all, it was quite busy.
Moreover, he did not know when Dharma Treasure, the natal kitchen knife, was added to his Dantian. From time to time, he used various methods to cultivate and strengthen the kitchen knife Dharma Treasure.
In the dream, he was like a tireless machine, putting the theories and experiences in the two thousand Preaching Post into practice one by one, experiencing and mastering them personally.
Continuous failures, constant attempts, and constant accumulation, a little bit of experience and insights come together to form a vast river, flowing to the sea of consciousness of Li Xiuchang.
The previous sermons of the Old Master only made Li Xiuchang remember those contents deeply and understand those contents literally.
The repeated practice and attempts of dreams within dreams allowed him to thoroughly master this knowledge and develop his own unique insights.
"Anointing" is indeed the first secret method of the Daoist Sect. It is indeed mysterious and well-deserved.
Li Xiuchang couldn't help but sigh as he felt that these knowledge and memories were engraved into his soul and even his body, making him so proficient in some contents that he had muscle memory.
After a long time, Li Xiuchang woke up from a dream and found himself back in Preaching Ranking.
It seems like nothing has changed, but it feels like everything has.
The whole preaching process only took about a quarter of an hour, but Li Xiuchang felt as if a long time had passed.
There is no complicated knowledge in his mind. All the knowledge has been mastered by him and has been sorted out and digested.
He quit Preaching Ranking, glanced at his Length Value, and was immediately shocked!
Before receiving Anointing, his Length Value was over 62 inches. Since forming the elixir, he has been busy consolidating Cultivation Level and getting familiar with his magic power, and his skill training has slowed down, so the length has increased less.
But after accepting Anointing, his Length Value skyrocketed!
Reached "294.56!"
Li Xiuchang rubbed his eyes, a little unbelievable.
In just a moment, it increased by more than 230 inches?
He has been practicing hard for more than three years, but the total Length Value he has obtained is not that much!
Did I make a mistake?
Li Xiuchang forced himself to calm down, but he couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth at all. He felt both surprised and somewhat unreal and absurd.
When he was practicing martial arts, he had to work very hard for half a year to gain two inches in length. Now he had a dream that he had gained more than two hundred inches, which made him think that he was still in a dream.
"Calm down!"
Li Xiuchang Tell yourself that the growth in length must be traceable and data can be relied upon.
He immediately flew to Zongmenfang City and purchased a large amount of messy materials, including various materials and tools for forming formations, making talismans, brewing wine, and refining weapons.
Then I returned to Eastern Geng District and came to Quiet Room on the first floor. The first thing Li Xiuchang did was nothing else but to test his skill level through practice.
A person has knowledge in his head and abilities in his body, but if you ask him what level his abilities and knowledge are, it is difficult to judge.
Only practice is the only criterion for measurement.
Li Xiuchang began to draw the first talisman in his life, made the formation materials for the first time, brewed the fairy brew for the first time, and refined the magic weapon for the first time...
After a few days of busy work, Li Xiuchang confirmed that his four skills of Talisman Dao, Array Path, Immortal Brewing, and Weapon Refining have all reached the first level!
Moreover, the foundation is very solid and the level is very stable. If you take the first-level skill assessment, you will definitely pass it.
Then there are the four skills he has mastered before. He must also practice them to see how much improvement they have.
Li Xiuchang started refining alchemy, planting, cooking, and experimenting with ghosts...
After some attempts, it was determined that Spirit Plant has the most obvious improvement.
He is already a real Third-grade Spirit Planter!
And he's not just entering the third level yet, he's already a little experienced Third-grade Spirit Planter.
It's not in vain that he invested 600 Preaching Post!
At this point, Li Xiuchang has almost understood how the length of more than two hundred inches came about.
The higher the skill level, the greater the length increase as the level increases.
The improvement of Spirit Plant Cultivation Arts should have brought him a lot of length increase this time, not even a hundred but also a few dozen inches longer.
The next most obvious improvement is Dao of Alchemy, which jumped from a small Alchemist who was just entering the first level to Second-tier Alchemist.
Li Xiuchang is now proficient in refining second-level elixirs with a passable success rate, but he cannot even refine a third-level elixir, so it should be Alchemist who is in the early stage of second-level elixirs.
Spirit Chef Arts has also made great progress. Although it is still at the second level, it is infinitely close to the third level!
Looking back, he will consolidate himself and practice more. Breaking through to the third level will be just around the corner.
The improvement of soul control skills is just okay, from being infinitely close to the second level to the more advanced second level Soul Master.
With eight skills, Li Xiuchang is still far behind Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi, but Immortal Dust Sect can be regarded as versatile when compared to the outer door.
At this point, Li Xiuchang has no doubts about the improvement of his Length Value. Just reaching the first level of the four new skills will increase the length by at least 40 inches. Add in the improvement of Spirit Plant Cultivation Arts, even if it is counted as 80 inches, it already adds up to 120 inches.
"I'm not in a hurry to take the assessment for the four newly learned skills. It's not necessary. It's just to attract attention."
"But both Lingchu and Yuhun must pass the second-level assessment to participate in Hundred Arts Competition."
There are still two months left until Hundred Arts Competition held by the Seal Heaven Sect. Li Xiuchang Now Spirit Plant Cultivation Arts has broken through the third level. It will definitely kill everyone in the Spirit Plant competition.
But if he accidentally exposes his third-level skill level, he will be promoted to a sect worshiper when he comes back.
For him, it is "rising and falling", so to be on the safe side, he may not participate in the Spirit Plant competition this time.
Both Lingchu and Yuhun have reached the second level, and they are very likely to win any competition they participate in.
Especially in the soul control competition, the soul control skills are so unpopular. With his second level soul control skills, he will definitely have no opponent.
"I now have nearly three hundred inches in length, where should I use it?"
Li Xiuchang thought carefully for a moment and felt that there was no need to rush now.
At present, it is better to prepare Hundred Arts Competition in two months. It will not be too late to consider this issue after returning from the Seal Heaven Sect.
There are many places where "length" needs to be used later, especially adding a point to Vajra Dharma Image is the big end.
At the Third-grade Body Cultivation stage, because there are Blood Bodhi Fruit, you can avoid adding points, but what about the fourth level?
There are also internal diamond elixirs, including some rare weapon refining materials collected later, which need to be added.
Speaking of materials, collecting the materials used to refine Natal Magic Treasure is also a top priority and cannot be delayed.
The two things before Li Xiuchang are preparing to fight Hundred Arts Competition and preparing to refine Natal Magic Treasure.
Li Xiuchang took action immediately. First, he went to the General Affairs Hall and signed up for the second-level Soul Master assessment.
Then I went to visit Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi and planned to ask him what the main material should be for his kitchen knife Natal Magic Treasure.
A giant flying boat slowly landed at the Immortal Dust Sect mountain gate.
A group of the Immortal Dust Sect disciples flew down from the flying boat and entered Immortal Dust Sect.
Song Yu was inconspicuous among the group of disciples. Only a few familiar people greeted him before leaving.
Song Yu has long been used to it. A few days ago, he won first place in the Four Great Immortal Sects Foundation Establishment Realm exchange competition, but he only received sparse applause, mostly from his classmates who came to compete with him.
At that time, the threshold of everyone watching the game was raised by the previous friendly match. The exchange match, whether in terms of excitement or topicality, could not be compared with the previous two friendly matches.
Therefore, the audience only felt that this exchange match was boring from beginning to end, even the final championship battle was also boring.
Song Yu experienced what it means to be a champion that no one cares about.
His limelight has long been snatched away by Li Xiuchang and Zhang Wanzhi.
The only thing that attracts the participants in this competition is the reward, and they lose the honor they deserve.
Song Yu is not a pushy person, but he is also not used to this champion who is stingy with applause. This is completely different from what he thought at first!
Shouldn't it be that he went through all kinds of hardships to win the championship for the sect and wash away the shame, and then everyone in the sect cheered for him in unison and was proud of him?
He comforted himself that it would be okay. When he returned to the sect, he would be warmly welcomed when he returned with great honor.
But when he got off the flying boat, there was no welcoming scene as he imagined. The entrance to the sect was deserted, no different from the past.
"Is it because the news that I won the championship hasn't been sent back to the sect?"
Song Yu frowned and flew back to the inner gate. On the way, fellow disciples greeted him from time to time, but no one even asked him about his results in the exchange competition.
Instead, someone pulled him and asked excitedly, "Do you know Zhang Wanzhi from the outer sect? This man is so powerful. A dozen of our inner sect brothers have already been defeated by him!"
"By the way, has Senior Brother Chu Ya come back with you? Ask him to have a spar with Zhang Wanzhi. I want to see which one of them is better!"
Song Yu sighed, feeling tired, so let's go back to form pills.
