Chapter 101: Chapter 86: White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill

After entering meditation, Li Yi was experiencing this incredible transformation for the first time, a change likely caused by the Bone Mural he encountered earlier, as well as him practicing the Bone-to-Meat Technique.

"To see one’s true self, illusions can be broken... So, is this my true self? What is the true self? And what use is there in seeing it?"

Li Yi was now full of questions.

His understanding of cultivation was limited, preventing him from comprehending his current situation, and he could not even seek advice from anyone else since no one had managed to break through the illusion of the Bone Mural, let alone understand what he was experiencing.

As he looked at himself on the Lotus Platform, forming the Treasure Seal with his hands, serene and dignified, Li Yi could only temporarily set aside his concerns.

If this was also part of himself, then it was not something bad.

"Continue with meditation and cultivation; perhaps when my cultivation realm advances, I will understand these questions." Li Yi thought to himself, feeling more relaxed and less anxious.

Soon.

Li Yi gradually entered the state of meditation.

As he deepened his meditation, his consciousness began to merge with his true self, feeling as though he was like a Buddha, sitting on the Lotus Platform, hands forming the Treasure Seal, with a smile that was not quite a smile.

This feeling was peculiar, yet very comforting.

It brought an indescribable sense of ease.

Moreover, as time passed, his physical body in reality also began sitting cross-legged, forming the Treasure Seal, unintentionally assuming the same posture as the skeleton depicted on the Bone Mural, as if his body had its own intentions, wholly beyond his conscious control.

In this state, Li Yi began to cultivate, and something unimaginable occurred.

The energy from the Sword Coins surged toward Li Yi’s body like a tidal wave. At that moment, not even deliberate guiding was necessary as his body acted like a magnet, passively attracting cosmic energy toward it.

And it was not only that. Usually, the cosmic energy flooding into one’s body needed to be slowly absorbed with focused intent, but now, his body seemed to have opened up an appetite, becoming ravenous and actively absorbing the cosmic energy on its own.

All Li Yi had to do at this moment was keep his hands in the Treasure Seal, sitting on the Lotus Platform.

His body seemed to be cultivating on its own accord.

And this rate of cultivation was much faster than before. Even with the use of Sword Coins, Li Yi’s cultivation value had been only eighty percent, meaning that out of a hundred units of cosmic energy, he could guide and absorb eighty, with the remaining twenty percent wasted.

But now.

Led by his body’s passive guiding, he could channel a thousand units of cosmic energy at once. This amount of energy was terrifying. If not for a damaged Mysterious Object providing support, the surrounding cosmic energy would not be sufficient to meet his needs without a large number of conductors.

"The value for channeling cosmic energy has increased tenfold. I wonder what my absorption efficiency is now."

He began to sense his body’s efficiency at absorbing energy after the transformation.

If it was still just eighty units, then Li Yi’s current method of guidance would be pointless, as most of the cosmic energy would be wasted.

However, after some sensing, he was amazed.

Out of the thousand units of cosmic energy he guided, forty percent was absorbed. The remaining sixty percent couldn’t be absorbed in time and became tainted by the surroundings, resulting in waste.

By that calculation.

Was Li Yi’s cultivation value now four hundred percent?

What a joke.

Had he actually become a genius?

Li Yi’s spirit was in turmoil. He abruptly opened his eyes, leaving the meditative state of cultivation.

He was somewhat excited and even found it hard to believe. He couldn’t help getting up from the bed and pacing back and forth in his bedroom, trying to calm the agitation in his heart.

"It can’t be, did I miscalculate? Is Sister Lin’s method reliable at all? If we really go by this method to judge, then I, damn it, am truly a genius, and not just any genius, but a top-tier one. A cultivation value of four hundred percent would shock a whole lot of people if it got out."

Li Yi still couldn’t believe that his cultivation value could be so terrifying.

Before, everything had been so normal.

But once he sat on the Lotus Platform, forming the Treasure Seal, everything changed.

"Wait a minute, it’s not that I’ve become a genius, but that I’ve broken through the illusion of the White Bone Temple and seen my true self, mastering a special way of cultivation," Li Yi began to calm down gradually as he realized the root of the problem.

In this world, cultivators rely on a very primitive form of meditation for their cultivation. But what if there is a better way to cultivate? Then, directly improving a person’s cultivation potential is not impossible.

So, what Li Yi is using now should not be considered meditation-based cultivation. To be precise, it’s the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill.

Only a technique can explain all of this.

Moreover, this skill is currently unique to Li Yi, because part of the Bone Mural has been destroyed, leaving gaps in the information. Under normal circumstances, even if someone else broke through the illusion, they would not be able to grasp the complete White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill, at most they would have an incomplete version of it.

"So, the whole process is, by chance, I was guided by the remnant thoughts within the Sword Coin, and used a shortcut to break the illusion of the Bone Mural, which allowed me to see my true self and master this White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill?" Li Yi thought carefully about everything and finally came to this conclusion.

"Is it precisely because I’ve mastered the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill that my cultivation value shot up from eighty-one percent to four hundred percent, and I went from being an average cultivator to a genius cultivator?"

"Although this genius status is false, the fact remains so in the absence of others mastering the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill."

Li Yi thought of this and suddenly laughed.

He thought obtaining the Mysterious Object marked the beginning of his fate changing, but there were more surprises awaiting him.

Indeed, one should always strive hard.

Without that impulse back then, there would be no opportunities and progress now.

"Now that I have the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill and I hold a damaged Mysterious Object, I should not slack off. I must cultivate diligently to catch up with people like Yang Yilong and Li Shaqing. These individuals already have high cultivation values and with the help of Cultivation Cabins, guides, and other resources, their cultivation speed is also terrifying. I am currently only at the Spirit Medium Realm, like a frog in the well, and cannot afford to be complacent," Li Yi reflected.

Li Yi took a deep breath, calmed his heart and mood, and then sat back down on the bed.

This time, he knew the correct way to cultivate.

Sitting cross-legged, forming the Treasure Seal with his hands, eyes closed in a peaceful state, and wearing a smile that was not quite a smile, he resembled a Buddha descending to the mortal world.

Once the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill was employed, Li Yi quickly entered a state of cultivation.

The immense cosmic energy inside the Sword Coin was once again channeled into his body.

This time, Li Yi was neither excited nor panicked; he simply began to adapt to this new state.

And as his cultivation continued, his body underwent some inexplicable changes.

In just one night, a layer of skin peeled away from Li Yi’s body at a rate visible to the naked eye. This old layer of skin took with it some scars, moles, and dark spots, revealing new skin that, while still the same as before, was no longer flawed; it was as if he had been reborn.

This type of transformation was unheard of among other cultivators.

Even after evolving, cultivators could heal some of their past defects, but never had there been a case of shedding an entire layer of skin overnight.

However, this was a good sign, indicating that Li Yi’s body was evolving and transforming in an unknown direction.

Time swiftly moved to the afternoon of the next day.

Li Yi awoke.

The first thing he said upon awakening was, "I’m so hungry."

His stomach growled loudly; it wasn’t that Li Yi couldn’t continue in meditation, but his body had woken him up with hunger.

When Li Yi picked up the bottle of Golden Nutrient Liquid next to him and started to drink deeply, he was shocked to find that he had shed an entire layer of dead skin.

This layer peeled off completely, like a snake’s slough.

"It must be because of the Bone-to-Meat Technique; my cultivation speed has changed, and my body’s evolution has accelerated, causing me to shed my skin overnight," Li Yi thought to himself.

Without giving it much thought, he went to the bathroom to wash off the dead skin and clean up.

After the shower, Li Yi just needed the power of his Fist Power to travel around his body and the water drops on his skin would be flung away, leaving his body instantly dry and comfortable.

"Good, another beautiful day," he said.

Li Yi stepped out of the bedroom, ready to move his muscles and see how Zhang Lei intended to deal with yesterday’s incident.

After all, he was waiting for his paycheck.
