What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 73
73 Visualization of the Grand Moon
The fifth acupuncture point of the Nine Yang Divine Technique was opened. True Energy surged into it and transformed into the energy core of the fifth fireball.
The total amount of his True Energy had reached five times that of the same level, becoming denser and purer.
After opening the fifth acupoint, the Nine Yang Divine Technique had reached the middle stage of the second level. Before the realm, it was equivalent to the middle stage of the Connate realm or the eighth level of Qi Refinement. However, its true combat strength was definitely comparable to the perfected stage of the Connate realm or the tenth level of Qi Refinement!
Especially since Song Shi already possessed the Vajra Dharma Body, he was nearing the level of a Transcendent Foundation Establishment cultivator.
!!
Song Shi had made breakthroughs for both the Yang Refinement Technique and the Nine Yang Divine Technique. An even hotter power burned in his body, causing Liu Ruxue to sweat.
“Young Master, I feel terrible. Your power is too domineering.”
Liu Ruxue frowned and her skin suddenly turned red as she revealed an expression of pain.
“I just broke through. Sorry I didn’t notice.”
Song Shi hurriedly restrained his increased True Energy and started to maintain only half of his Dantian’s True Energy as he continued the dual cultivation with Liu Ruxue. Only then did the latter’s skin return to her normal rosy color.
“You still can’t keep up with my pace.”
He sighed in his heart. Now that his strength had broken through, he needed at least five people that had a composition like Liu Ruxue to maintain the Yin-Yang Balance in his body.
Liu Ruxue quickly retracted the power in her body and felt that she was about to break through to the eighth level soon. She smiled sweetly. “I’ve only cultivated for three days and Xue’er is about to break through again. My speed is nearly ten times faster than before.”
“Yes, my cultivation speed has also nearly doubled.”
Song Shi nodded.
Liu Ruxue said embarrassedly, “Xue’er is still a burden to the Young Master. If Xue’er’s cultivation level increased by two levels, Young Master would be able to circulate his power with all his might.”
“It’s fine. After all, I’m a genius to be able to become so powerful despite cultivating for only a while.”
Song Shi shamelessly praised himself. “That’s all for today. I’m going to learn my martial arts.”
Unlike Liu Ruxue, who was an immortal cultivator and only cultivated divine powers, what he was doing was very different.
“Young Master, Xue’er’s situation has already been known by the inner sect elders. Someone will come over to inspect her soon. They should be arriving tomorrow. Young Master, you and Xue Er will welcome them together, right?”
Liu Ruxue brought up an important matter.
“If I am free, we can go together. The people from the Demon Slayers Division contacted me yesterday.”
Song Shi felt that he was going to be used as cannon fodder by the Demon Slayers again. This was a good thing.
“Young Master, be careful. The outside world has changed a lot.” Liu Ruxue got up and helped Song Shi put on his clothes, acting as if she was his wife.
This caught Song Shi’s attention. He obediently let Liu Ruxue sort up his clothes and smiled. “Don’t worry. I have ways to protect myself.”
“Yeah.”
Liu Ruxue thought that Song Shi was talking about special Dharma treasures like array discs.
Song Shi kissed Liu Ruxue goodbye, walked out of the room and went downstairs to the backyard.
Thinking that he might start a new round of courting death, he checked his current system interface as he walked.

…
“My Dharma Body is too strong. My Physique has directly reached seven to eight times that of ordinary people of the same level.”
Song Shi thought to himself that it was not bad to have a physique of 90 points at the eighth level of Qi Refinement or the middle stage of the Connate realm because this physique would basically be able to cultivate a treasure body.
As a result, his physique was far superior to his Spirit, especially after he had devoured Hei Duzi’s soul.
He felt that his body was not as agile as before, and the ‘software’ could adequately support the ‘hardware’.
“My Comprehension is enough to learn things fast at this stage. I’ll use the Free Stats to increase my Spirit instead.”
Song Shi immediately spent his Freedom Attribute Points.
His Spirit Stats immediately increased from 214 to 332 points, becoming close to half of his Physique Stats.
He immediately felt that his body had become more agile. There was no longer much cumbersomeness, but he was still a little short of being able to control his movements to be precise and swift.
“A balanced development is the key.”
Song Shi’s gaze landed on the lucky draw.
During this period of time, he had perfected the Unfettered Hand, Phantom image Steps, and Fireball Technique and had managed to obtain three lucky draw chances.
Coupled with the rewards for killing Hei Duzi and the Iron Skinned Gu Corpse, he had accumulated a total of five lucky draw chances.
What surprised him was that his Gust Wind Sword and Storm Saber were considered unperfected despite his powerful Comprehension. They were still lacking something.
Elder Qin said that he lacked a Divine Decree and needed Song Shi to comprehend it himself. Hence he could only try to comprehend the Heaven Decree by himself in the future.
However, five lottery chances were sufficient for him currently. After some consideration, he decided to draw five consecutive times.
‘Ding… Congratulations on obtaining the Invisibility Talisman!
“Ding… congratulations on drawing the Grand Moon Visualization Method!”
“Ding… congratulations on drawing 100 low-grade spirit stones!”
Ding… congratulations on obtaining one Poison Avoidance Pearl.
“Ding… congratulations on obtaining one flying Dharma artifact, Cloud Breaking Boat!”
Song Shi smiled in satisfaction and enjoyment upon hearing the series of notifications.
Who could resist the addictive pleasure of five consecutive draws?
He checked what he had pulled out. Other than the Invisibility Talisman whose usage he was aware of, the rest were unknown prizes.
Looking at the 100 Spirit Stones, he pursed his lips. He did not expect to be able to draw out Spirit Stones.
“The flying Dharma artifacts and the Grand Moon Visualization Method diagram looks pretty good. I have no need for the Poison Avoidance Pearl. It can only be used by others.”
Song Shi looked at the three items with interest.
Poison Avoidance Pearl: A special mid-grade Dharma artifact that can resist most poisonous gasses and deter poisons. It is effective against poisons below the Golden Core realm.
Cloud Breaking Boat: High-grade flying Dharma artifacts. It can break through clouds and fly. Its speed is comparable to a Normal Gold Core cultivator.
Grand Moon Visualization Method: Spirit Visualization Method that can condense the soul and strengthen the Spirit. It’s suitable for soul Foundation Establishment before condensing the Essence Soul.
Song Shi’s eyes lit up when he saw the introduction of the Grand Moon Visualization Method.
This was really a free reward exchanged for doing nothing from the system at the right timing. Just as he felt that his Spiritual strength was a little behind his Physique, he managed to draw a Spirit cultivation method.
“All my cultivation techniques are extremely Yang and firm, but the cultivation technique of this soul is related to the Grand Moon. There shouldn’t be any problem cultivating it, right?”
Song Shi immediately absorbed the content of the Grand Moon Visualization Method from the diagram. After understanding the situation, he quickly relaxed.
The soul was Yin to begin with, hence this visualization method was very suitable. Moreover, it could help him better control his masculine physique and the Nine Yang True Energy.
“This visualization method actually needs to be cultivated towards the moon and absorb the power of the moon to condense a soul. Why does this feel like it is a cultivation method practiced by demons?”
Song Shi’s expression was strange as he read the final part of the introduction of the Visualization Method.
This skill seemed like it was suitable for cultivation amongst demons.
Good lord, demons and ghosts were mentioned to be able to cultivate this skill, but there was no mention of humans cultivating it.
Who cares? It didn’t say that humans can’t cultivate it.
He began to multitask as he started to study this visualization method in his mind while going to the backyard and prepared to let Elder Qin teach him the last divine power.
After waiting for a while, Elder Qin did not appear. Big Smart ran out and said with slight hesitation, “Young Master, Elder Qin and the old master went out. It seems… it seems that they went to see the Third Young Master.”
“Third Brother?”
Song Shi frowned, “This guy is still alive? I thought Hei Duzi had killed him.”
