A Cultivation Method That Courted Death

"You actually came all alone!"

The Lingxiao Palace was deserted and quiet.

The Jade Emperor did not always sit on the throne in the Lingxiao Palace; he only appeared and sat on it when he met Zhang Xuezhou.

He looked at Zhang Xuezhou in the center of the hall, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"You need to think this through. I have only promised to erase the memories of your Technique Method, not to restore Technique Method," the Jade Emperor said. "Haotian has not come to protect you, so there is a 100% chance that you have forgotten the Technique Method you have learned. Decades of accumulated knowledge will all be lost!"

I know!

"I find it strange that you didn't ask Haotian for help."

"He can't come!"

Zhang Xuezhou stood in the center of the main hall, looking at the middle-aged emperor on the golden throne in the Lingxiao Hall.

This was yet another new face, unlike any face Zhang Xuezhou had ever seen before.

As if possessing countless faces, the Jade Emperor could change his appearance at will.

However, only the Jade Emperor can sit on the throne in the Lingxiao Palace, so the other party's identity must be genuine.

Zhang Xuezhou was not surprised by the Jade Emperor's changed appearance. Instead, he directly mentioned that he was about to break through to a higher realm and needed the Jade Emperor's assistance in forgetting the various Technique Method he had learned.

If possible, Zhang Xuezhou really wanted to retain the many Technique Method he had learned, after all, he had painstakingly cultivated many Technique Method, and the loss of forgetting them would be enormous.

But if he doesn't come to forget today, he will miss the opportunity to use his Divine Ability powers.

Compared to the potential harm of forgetting Technique Method, the benefits of choosing a method of Divine Ability selection are far greater.

This is an opportunity to develop a second or even third Divine Ability, and it's also Zhang Xuezhou's ability to turn the tide most likely.

He practiced many Technique Method, including the art of Acupoint-Fixing Technique, Person-Fixing Technique, cloud-riding, being entangled in yellow sand, transforming sand, controlling beasts by inverting the mind and soul, transforming the yang soul into form, and aging techniques.

Every Technique Method has its uses; even the most useless Yin Entity Tracking Technique once commanded thousands of dead souls to fight together.

Each person is different at different times, and fortuitous opportunity cannot be repeated. Once a cultivator's Technique Method are forgotten, it is extremely difficult to regain them.

Zhang Xuezhou can withstand these losses, and he is even more confident that he can start all over again.

The reason for this is nothing more than that the nine major avoidance techniques, physical body techniques, and nine-turn Qi-combination techniques that Zhang Xuezhou practiced are all complex techniques with hundreds of thousands of acupoints. The Acupoint-Fixing Technique and the Person-Fixing Technique have shortcuts in practice, while the aging technique and other techniques are not very difficult. Zhang Xuezhou believed that he could pass them on the first try if he practiced them again.

The forgetting Technique Method is a way of casting spells that forget one's instincts. It does not mean that many of his cultivated abilities disappear. His physical cultivation foundation still exists, and he does not need to consume a large number of pills to cultivate.

Sorcery is Divine Ability Realm Technique, so Zhang Xuezhou does not need to forget the Technique Within the Clouds and the Drowsiness Technique, and therefore it has little effect.

Having made numerous mental preparations, Zhang Xuezhou was only waiting for the Jade Emperor's approval so that he could advance his cultivation in the Lingxiao Palace.

As for whether the Jade Emperor might have some personal motives, Zhang Xuezhou wouldn't care too much, since forgetting memories related to the Jade Emperor wasn't a big deal.

"Since you've made up your mind, sign this contract as proof, and I'll lend you a hand!"

On the golden throne, the Jade Emperor reached out and stroked it, and a scroll of golden decree flew out.

Zhang Xuezhou reached out and took it, only to see that the decree recorded the incident and contained numerous signatures and fingerprints as evidence.

This disclaimer is a procedure to avoid being held accountable, and Zhang Xuezhou signed his name directly.

"Zhang Xuezhou, that's an interesting name!"

The Jade Emperor accepted the decree, and clouds and mist began to gradually fill the Lingxiao Palace.

He gestured to Zhang Xuezhou to push his limits, saying he would cooperate when necessary.

"Last time I gave him so many rare fruits and medicinal herbs, how come he took out a bunch of them... It seems to be that Chaos Poison Cynomorium!"

Inside the Lingxiao Hall, Zhang Xuezhou began to devour the cultivation resources he had brought with him.

It's not unusual for someone to take pills before attempting to break through a cultivation level; what's unusual is the type of pill Zhang Xuezhou took.

The Jade Emperor examined the medicine in Zhang Xuezhou's hand several times before recognizing it.

Whether it's cut into chunks or slices, the characteristics of Cynomorium songaricum remain unchanged.

The world goes on and on, year after year. Most of the normally verifiable wonders of nature have been plundered, and what remains has some flaws.

This Cynomorium songaricum is one of them.

It's not that no one has taken it before, but the effects of the medication were real, and the side effects were also real.

No matter how skeptical they were, very few people actually benefited from taking Cynomorium songaricum.

On one hand, there's the mentality of "better to die than see others fall into the trap," with some even wanting to watch others get into trouble for fun. On the other hand, people like Laojun believe that the world is constantly evolving and moving forward, and items that were not very useful in the past may be different in the future, which is why these unusual and bizarre medicines have survived.

Everyone knows there's such a drug, but nobody pays any attention to it.

The Jade Emperor was surprised that a cultivator of Zhang Xuezhou's level would actually use the Suoyang technique.

He had originally had little interest in Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation, but now he was more curious and kept a close eye on Zhang Xuezhou's every move in promoting cultivation.

"Locking Yang locks all the power in your body. To push your cultivation to break through to a higher realm, you need to mobilize all your Law Power, and even need to replenish it two or three times. This means that the Law Power in your body will be replaced, and it also means that your Law Power after breaking through to a higher realm will inevitably be sealed. Add to that your forgotten Technique Method, and you will almost become someone who has a higher realm but no power..."

The Jade Emperor almost uttered the word "useless".

The Jade Emperor had seen countless cultivators, but he had never seen such a suicidal cultivation method as Zhang Xuezhou's.

Of course, the Jade Emperor had to admit that anything could happen in such a vast world.

Even the Emperor Haotian didn't show up, showing no concern whatsoever for his holy son's chosen path of cultivation, so the Jade Emperor was even less likely to worry about it.

If the Jade Emperor uses the scourge Zhang Xuezhou as a stepping stone and chooses to sacrifice his own holy son to initiate accountability, the Jade Emperor still has a decree to respond.

After thinking it over and over again, the Jade Emperor truly couldn't understand why Zhang Xuezhou would do such a thing.

"To be able to eat so much without the Demon Power, it seems your Grain Avoidance Instruction is quite well-practiced. However, you'll have to forget this ability later. Without being able to actively activate the Grain Avoidance Instruction, your body's Grain Avoidance ability will shrink by at least 70%!"

A purple aura of Law Power permeated the air, along with the dark red hues of Qi and Blood, and even some cyan Yao Qi.

As Zhang Xuezhou pushed his cultivation to new heights, his physical condition became increasingly complex.

The Jade Emperor felt that Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation was a mess and he couldn't see any normal cultivation system at all.

Moreover, the pills Zhang Xuezhou was taking were abnormal; the dosage was far too high. He had already swallowed so many that his abdomen was swollen and his body had grown larger.

"You've taken Laojun's Nine-Turn Purple Gold Pill and Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill. Quickly take two to adjust your body, lest you fail to break through to a higher realm before you've forgotten your Technique Method!"

The Jade Emperor made Zhang Xuezhou sign a decree on the forgetting Technique Method. If Zhang Xuezhou were to die suddenly in the Lingxiao Palace while attempting to break through to a higher realm, the Jade Emperor would truly have no way to explain himself.

He had to create a large cloud of mist around the Lingxiao Palace to conceal it, and then gave Zhang Xuezhou a few pointers.

"The golden pill you obtained from the Tushita Palace is the Nine-Turn Purple Gold Pill. One of these pills can regulate your body's meridians, turning a useless person into a talent. It's no wonder it can restore order to your internal imbalances," the Jade Emperor said. "The Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill consists of twenty-four white pills you obtained from your Pill Furnace, also known as the White Descending Pill. This pill can dispel illness and calamities, sparing you the suffering of broken meridians and acupoints!"

Only after Zhang Xuezhou asked the question did the Jade Emperor realize that Zhang Xuezhou was an ignorant fool.

He had previously thought Zhang Xuezhou had a sharp eye and was picking out the best items from the Tushita Palace, but he never expected that Zhang Xuezhou didn't recognize elixirs at all and needed to ask him at this time.
