Optimizing Nether Sleep Array! New Daoist Scripture! New Daoist Magic!

[Ding! Host has consumed Skill Points to upgrade Shattering Order from Minor Accomplishment to Major Accomplishment!]

[Ding! Host has consumed Skill Points to upgrade Shattering Order from Minor Accomplishment to Major Accomplishment!]

[Ding! Host has consumed Skill Points to upgrade Shattering Order from Major Accomplishment to Grand Perfection!]

Hum~

Waves of killing intent surged, churning within Lin Fan's chest!

The circulation of his Greater and Lesser Heavenly Cycles converged and rushed into his Dantian!

In Lin Fan's mind, the already terrifying killing move now felt like it could tear heaven and earth apart!

"Hoo..."

Lin Fan opened his eyes and let out a long breath, his chest heaving.

This Shattering Order was truly terrifying, worthy of being a technique that seized heaven and earth!

Even at Grand Perfection, this was only the first stage of Shattering Order!

There were still six more stages!

He couldn't even imagine what it would be like to upgrade it further.

Lin Fan shook his head, pushing the thought away.

He wondered if there would be any anomalies tonight.

He should hurry and use up his resources.

"System, check the Merit Points required to optimize the Nether Sleep Array."

Lin Fan suppressed his eager thoughts and focused his mind.

[System Notification: Optimizing the Nether Sleep Array requires 500 Merit Points.]

This really was a case of "better early than late."

He had originally planned to earn some Merit Points with Uncle-Master Qian He.

He intended to save them for when he learned the Spirit Invocation Technique from Uncle-Master Si Mu.

He hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence.

The priority now was to improve as much as possible.

He couldn't afford to hold onto these Merit Points.

An immediate increase in combat power was the best way to face the current situation.

Let's do this!

"System, optimize the Nether Sleep Array."

Lin Fan commanded without hesitation, his mind moving.

[System Notification: 500 Merit Points deducted. Nether Sleep Array has been optimized. Congratulations to the Host for learning Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia.]

Suddenly, Lin Fan felt as if he were outside of himself.

His form floated up in his Sea of Consciousness.

He stood in the central palace, as if entering a dream.

All things materialized, and time flowed.

Countless scenes flashed by.

In an instant, they vanished and reappeared.

Suddenly, formations appeared.

A grand voice echoed in his Sea of Consciousness.

Taiji gives birth to the Two Forms, the Two Forms give birth to the Four Images.

The Four Images give birth to the Eight Trigrams, the Eight Trigrams determine Heaven and Earth.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for awakening the Qimen Visualization Mind Method.]

The System's voice rang out.

Lin Fan was startled, his mind racing.

Qimen Dunjia was divided into four layers: Heaven, Earth, Man, and Spirit.

It encompassed the four concepts of Heavenly Timing, Earthly Advantage, Human Harmony, and Spiritual Aid.

Using the Luo Shu Nine Palaces as a framework, it arranged the Eight Trigrams.

The Heavenly Stems, the Eight Spirits, the Eight Gates, and the Nine Stars, when superimposed on the four layers, formed a pattern.

If this method were mastered and applied...

Reaching its peak...

Able to strategize within the command tent and secure victory from a thousand miles away.

[Ding! Host has comprehended the first level of Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia, and mastered Eight Extremes Fist!]

[Ding! Host has comprehended the first level of Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia, and mastered Wind Rope!]

Two sounds echoed in his mind.

A wave of bewilderment washed over Lin Fan.

[System Notification: Congratulations to the host for breaking through to Xiantian Realm Sixth Heaven.]

[System Notification: Congratulations to the host for breaking through to Xiantian Realm Seventh Heaven.]

The System's voice sounded again.

"What! No way, there's such a good thing!."

Lin Fan was overjoyed by the sudden surprise.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp.

His trembling hands couldn't hide his excitement.

He felt the profound aura of Xiantian Realm Seventh Heaven within him.

It was different from Xiantian Realm Fifth Heaven, after crossing that threshold.

The pure aura that flowed gently, like a stream.

It had suddenly become incredibly potent.

As if a casual flick of his wrist carried a thousand pounds of force.

The flow had also slowed down.

Lin Fan smiled knowingly.

If that mutated Green Zombie were in front of him now.

He was absolutely confident he could defeat it with one hand.

There was no way it could have numbed his tiger's mouth with a sudden blow.

He wouldn't need anyone's help, nor any formations to assist him.

Those would be completely unnecessary.

Lin Fan didn't overthink it.

He immediately closed his eyes and re-entered his comprehension.

Suddenly, swift movements of fists and feet appeared in his sea of consciousness.

Those refined close-quarters combat techniques.

The powerful physical techniques that overcome hardness with softness were displayed before his eyes.

This [Eight Extremes Fist] is truly formidable.

Lin Fan felt a sense of admiration.

With his current physique, combined with this [Eight Extremes Fist].

He could rival a Shaolin monk.

What did it mean to be strong and robust?

This was no longer related to being a Daoist priest.

What Daoist priest could possess such powerful fists and feet?

And this monstrous physique.

He was a top-tier physical combat expert.

This was like turning him into Rock Lee from Naruto.

A Leaf ninja appears.

He forgot about this [Wind Rope] too, let's see what it's about.

Lin Fan was suddenly startled.

A phantom appeared in the Qimen.

His palm moved, gathering invisible wind in his palm.

The virtual form, imperceptible to the naked eye, was extremely subtle.

Turning wind into rope, it manipulated the breeze with exquisite precision.

Yet its power was highly concentrated, like a hurricane.

Several whips of wind cracked with a rapid whistling sound.

Accompanied by the falling wind whips, the sounds were continuous.

The phantom slowly opened its hands.

The kite then dissipated.

"Truly extraordinary, what a terrifying Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia."

Lin Fan exclaimed inwardly.

He then pondered.

[Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia] uses people and objects as mediums.

Once the central palace is set, one can utilize the four plates and eight trigrams.

The four plates and eight trigrams form the core of the formation, which is then manipulated.

As the caster moves the four plates, they change one by one.

The four plates can control the power between heaven and earth.

Transforming it into one's own power for use.

Lin Fan's thoughts stirred.

"This is too overpowered! This is still only the first tier of Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia!" Lin Fan looked at the explanation and chuckled, then shouted inwardly, "System, open the Attribute Panel!"

[Name: Lin Fan]
[Realm: Xiantian Realm, Seventh Heaven]
[Physique: Skin Refining Realm (Minor Accomplishment)]
[Magic Tool: Peachwood Sword (Daoist Magic Amplification 100%)]
[Daoist Scripture: Seven Kills of Gods and Ghosts (Tier 1), Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia (Tier 1)]
[Daoist Magic: Purple Heaven Divine Thunder (Grand Perfection), Soul Locking Evil Dispelling Talisman (Grand Perfection), Heaven-Piercing Eyes (Beginner), Shattering Order (Grand Perfection), Eight Extremes Fist (Beginner), Wind Rope (Beginner)]

"Fulfilled! Rich!"

Lin Fan gazed at the panel, beaming.

The previous panel looked too sparse.

Now it's finally presentable!

A new Wind Rope, which is half offense and half control, and a physical technique, Eight Extremes Fist, have been added.

Now he truly has both offense and defense, cultivating both magic and martial arts!

All-around development, 360 degrees with no blind spots!

"It's just that my Merit Points are all spent again."

Lin Fan pouted, chuckling.

Skill Points also flowed away like water; I still need to accumulate them slowly!

"Come, come, let's try something new!"

Lin Fan collected his thoughts, his eyes burning with excitement.

Impatiently, he attempted to cast Marquis Wu's Qimen Dunjia for the first time.

Buzz~

Mysterious energy swirled!

The central palace beneath him lit up slightly, and the four plates unfolded.

The Qi of Qimen flowed into his heart.

A powerful aura barrier instantly spread out.

Covering a vast area.

In the silence of the night, there seemed to be an invisible force.

Gradually relaxing everyone's body and mind.

Jia Le had already fallen asleep.

Qingqing leaned against a small table inside the tent.

Dongnan and Xibei took turns on night patrol outside.

Daoist Priest Qian He, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.

His brows furrowed, as if facing a great enemy.

He flashed out with a swift step.

Master Yixiu and Daoist Priest Four-Eyes also sensed the intense fluctuation and rushed out together!
