Ziyue and Sun Nong couldn't wait to leave after delivering the meat back to the Bright Pearl Restaurant.
Ziyue jogged all the way to the southeast of Qinghe Town.
A six meter wide river divided Qinghe Town into two areas. On the other side of the river was the West Street and the North Street. It was a bustling commercial area with government officials, wealthy families, and all sorts of powers gathered there.
On the other hand, on the southeast side was the slum of Qinghe Town.
Just by looking at the houses on both sides, one could clearly feel the difference. It was like two different worlds.
The dilapidated wooden houses were tightly connected. The streets and alleys were also very narrow. They could only allow three people to walk side by side.
After crossing the bridge, Ziyue could only see darkness in front of him under the cover of the densely packed houses and the sun hadn't risen yet.
On the uneven road, Ziyue walked forward step by step, turning left and right. Soon, he arrived at the foot of a tall mountain.
There was a long stone staircase that extended upwards.
This was the Heavy Inkstone Mountain. The mountain looked like an inkstone.
Because there was an Earth God Temple on the mountain. Although no one took care of it, people would go there and burn incense during festivals. Therefore, this stone path was built.
Without hesitation, Ziyue quickly climbed up.
Bai Ziyue's physique and strength were almost twice that of an ordinary person's after the Dhyana Stance was upgraded to perfection. Ordinary people might need to take a break to climb the 500-meter-tall mountain, but Bai Ziyue did it in one go and climbed it in only five minutes.
Standing on a smooth large rock, Ziyue looked to the east. Behind the black mountains in the distance, the sky was only slightly white.
The sun had not risen yet.
"I finally made it!"
Ziyue let out a long sigh and gradually calmed himself down.
This time, Bai Ziyue had ascended the Heavy Inkstone Mountain in order to cultivate the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique.
The Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique was to absorb the Purple Qi of the Rising Sun into the body and turn it into nourishment.
Only at the moment when the sun rose would the purple Qi of the morning sun diffuse. For the sake of cultivation, he had no choice but to climb this Heavy Inkstone Mountain.
"To cultivate the Purple Qi Visualization Technique, the most important thing is to receive the Purple Qi. When the Purple Qi comes from the East, if one doesn't know how to receive it and use it, how can one succeed in cultivating it?
Therefore, before the sun rises, one must first visualize the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram. Only then can one truly receive the Purple Qi of the rising sun and absorb it into one's body. "
Ziyue calmed himself down and slowly adjusted his breathing.
He had long since memorized the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram and knew it by heart.
Bai Ziyue compared it to his memories and visualized the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram. Lines of complicated yet orderly patterns gradually took shape in his mind.
Ziyue didn't know how others were doing when they visualized the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram, but he was happy that he succeeded in one try.
As a matter of fact, Immortal Cultivation was all about innate talent.
The most important thing was actually the strength of one's soul. On the surface, it showed that one's willpower was strong, and one's memory was extraordinary.
Using the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram as an example, if one's memory and willpower weren't strong enough, how could the visualization take shape?
It was easy to visualize each stroke, but the entire Purple Qi Guidance Diagram had a total of thirty-six strokes. How could one succeed in one try?
Ziyue was able to succeed in one try because his willpower was stronger than the average person's and because he had the talent for cultivation. Naturally, it was also because of the perfection of the Dhyana Stance, the increase in his constitution, and the nourishment of his Qi and blood.
…
Finally, the horizon lit up. A beam of golden light spilled from the horizon and spread rapidly.
The world was bright, and all living things seemed to have awakened at this moment. Faintly, one could even hear the crowing of roosters.
Just as that beam of golden light spilled onto Ziyue's body, Ziyue's mind trembled. The Purple Qi Guidance Diagram in his mind immediately lit up. Strands of gentle Purple Qi of the rising sun gradually entrenched themselves on his body. Then, through the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram, it spilled directly onto his body.
A kind of extreme warmth, as if he had returned to his mother's womb, caused him to lose focus for a moment.
Fortunately, he quickly woke up and stabilized the Purple Qi Guidance Diagram that was about to deform. That was why he didn't break the guidance of the Purple Qi.
Strands of Purple Qi of the rising sun continuously flowed into Ziyue's body, cleansing his body and mind. It actually had the effect of cleansing his meridians, causing some impurities to be gradually expelled from the surface of his body.
"It is indeed starting to work. Presumably, when all the impurities in my body are completely expelled, my body will enter a state of cleansing. As for my spirit, Qi, and …"
When he was guiding the Purple Qi of the rising sun, Ziyue could still be distracted. He thought that it was because the Purple Qi was cleansing his body and mind while also repairing and strengthening his spirit, making his Spiritual Power more abundant.
Time passed slowly, and the sun gradually rose. Just as the sun was about to be completely exposed …
"Oh no!"
Ziyue's expression suddenly changed. At this moment, he felt as if his entire body was being burned by a sea of fire, and thunder was ringing in his ears. His entire body was in extreme pain.
When the sun rose, the Purple Qi of the rising sun had already dissipated. At this moment, the sky was filled with the Fire Qi of the Sun.
The Fire Qi of the Sun could burn everything.
It was Ziyue's first time cultivating. He was too greedy and didn't know the time. When the Purple Qi of the rising sun dissipated, he didn't stop his guidance in time.
In a panic, Ziyue hurriedly stopped the Guidance Diagram of the Purple Qi. The Fire Qi of the Sun was slightly entrenched. Without receiving guidance, it finally dissipated gradually.
"Fortunately, this is my first time cultivating. The guidance of the Guidance Diagram is relatively weak, and the Fire Qi of the Sun is less. Otherwise, it would really be dangerous."
Ziyue's face was pale, and he was slightly relieved.
He was also secretly vigilant. The pain of being burned by fire was deeply etched in his memory. It was so painful that he wanted to die, but he didn't want to experience it again.
This was the Winter Sun. Due to the various obstructions of the atmosphere, the intensity of the Fire Qi of the Sun was reduced countless times. If it was the Fire Qi of the Summer Sun, just a little bit of it into his body would probably cause him to be severely injured.
"It is said that the Way of Immortal Cultivation is something that everyone yearns for. There is indeed a reason for this.
Even if it was dangerous this time, the rewards were also not small. "
Ziyue's gaze looked at his own attribute panel, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
Name: Ziyue
Strength: 1.93 (Cannot be upgraded)
Speed: 1.85 (Cannot be upgraded)

With just one session of cultivation, his strength, speed, and vitality had all increased by a certain margin. Especially his vitality, which had now broken '2'.
And most importantly, with this session of cultivation, his mental strength attribute had awakened, and thus it had appeared on his attribute panel.
Not to mention, it was currently in a state where it could be upgraded …
