72: Chapter 72 (Complete Version) of "The Northern Darkness Divine Art"

Over the next day, Lu Siye spent his time in the living room Cultivating the "Diamond Indestructible Divine Skill".

With his full focus on Cultivation, Lu Siye's progress was extremely rapid, and by noon the next day, he had successfully reached the state where the strength of his entire body was unified.

With every movement, he could unleash the power of his entire body, and his strength had greatly improved.

Afterwards, Lu Siye couldn't wait to take out the "Bei Ming Divine Art", placed his palm on it, and silently chanted in his heart: "Enhance!"

"Does the Host wish to consume 12,000 Fear Points to enhance the 'Bei Ming Divine Art (Upper Volume)'?"

Lu Siye was silent for a moment. If he recalled correctly, back when he enhanced the Upper Volume, it only required 1,200 Fear Points!

Now it has increased tenfold?

What a rip-off!

"Enhance!" Lu Siye gritted his teeth and agreed!

It was only 12,000 Fear Points; he could still afford this cost.

At worst, he would just squeeze a bit more out of those Ghosts in the future.

As soon as the words fell, the pages flipped rapidly, divine light flickered, and Lu Siye once again witnessed the magical ability of the System.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the 'Bei Ming Divine Art'!"

Lu Siye had thought this enhancement would produce a Middle Volume, but it seemed to have given him the complete version directly.

He wondered if it could be enhanced again.

With a mindset of giving it a try, Lu Siye silently chanted to enhance it once more.

"Ding~ This enhancement requires 100,000 Fear Points. The Host's Fear Points are insufficient; enhancement failed!"

Hiss!

One hundred thousand Fear Points; such an outrageous cost, is it trying to enhance a Kunpeng out of it?

He understood the principle of getting what you pay for, but Lu Siye still couldn't help but silently complain in his heart.

Perhaps it really could enhance a Kunpeng; that would be something to look forward to!

Opening the "Bei Ming Divine Art", Lu Siye began to read it carefully, word by word.

A long while later, he put down the Cultivation Technique in his hands and let out a long breath.

The complete "Bei Ming Divine Art" had a few more techniques than just the Upper Volume alone.

The first technique was how to convert Internal Energy into True Qi of higher quality.

Of course, this conversion had a prerequisite: one's Internal Energy needed to reach a duration of two Jiazi.

One Jiazi equals sixty years, so two Jiazi is one hundred and twenty years, which Lu Siye had already far exceeded.

The second technique was the method to truly condense the Life-Death Talisman.

The true Life-Death Talisman is formed by condensing the two types of Yin and Yang Beiming True Qi within the body. After being struck into an enemy's body, it can absorb other energies and convert them into either Yin or Yang Beiming True Qi.

Yang Beiming True Qi is extremely rigid and Yang-aligned, so it should be able to achieve quite a good tormenting effect within a Ghost.

As for whether there are other uses, that remains to be developed.

The third technique was the ability to construct a protective True Qi outside the body for self-defense.

As for how good this defensive capability is?

The Cultivation Technique only mentioned one sentence: "Yin and Yang flow, capable of resolving all techniques in the world!"

This was equivalent to stacking defense to the max.

Without further ado, he began to Cultivate!

Lu Siye immediately controlled the Internal Energy within his Dantian and began to circulate it according to the Internal Energy conversion method described in the Cultivation Technique.

The Internal Energy that was originally slowly rotating around the Beiming Origin True Qi in his Dantian began to accelerate, gradually turning into a state resembling a vortex.

A suction force came from the center of the vortex, and the surrounding Internal Energy began to compress inward under the influence of this suction.

Just like that, time passed bit by bit, and the Internal Energy began to gradually merge into the Beiming Origin True Qi.

Until two-fifths of the Internal Energy had entered the Origin True Qi, a black and white Taiji ball appeared in the center of the vortex.

When the Taiji ball appeared in his Dantian, Lu Siye was stunned for a moment.

Am I practicing martial arts or cultivating immortality?

Why does this thing look so much like a Golden Core from cultivation stories!

In the brief moment he was stunned, the Taiji ball changed again.

Wisps of Yin and Yang Beiming True Qi broke free from the Taiji ball, forming a flat ring that began to rotate around the Taiji ball.

The speed at which the surrounding Internal Energy merged became faster, and Yin and Yang Beiming True Qi were continuously breaking free.

Until finally, the Internal Energy was completely converted into True Qi, rotating around the Taiji ball in a ring shape, and the speed of rotation was slowly slowing down.

At first glance, it had a visual resemblance to the rings of Saturn.

After the rotation speed of the True Qi ring returned to its previous speed, the Taiji ball split into two and sat in the positions of the fish eyes of the Yin and Yang fish.

With this, the conversion of True Qi was completely finished, and the formless Internal Energy in his Dantian had transformed into a black and white Taiji diagram.

Lu Siye opened his eyes, the expression on his face somewhat strange.

This martial arts practice, why does it feel like the style has gone a bit astray?

Never mind that, he wanted to try the other two techniques, or rather, methods.

Lu Siye focused his mind, controlling the Yin and Yang Beiming True Qi to emerge from the Taiji diagram and slowly condense into a profound rune within his Dantian.

The Life-Death Talisman was successfully condensed, but he was still missing a test subject.

Could it be he had to go out and find a Ghost now?

Lu Siye looked up towards the balcony; it was pitch black outside, and unknowingly, it was already night.

Wait, I don't seem to need to go out to find one; isn't there one right here at home!

At this moment, Fang Lanyue, who was trapped in the lingming jade, suddenly felt a chill on her back.

Taking the lingming jade out of the System Space, Lu Siye kindly waved at Fang Lanyue, who had just emerged.

"Yue'er, come here! Let me show you something good!" At this moment, Lu Siye was just like a creepy uncle, luring Fang Lanyue, this little girl.

"I won't!" Fang Lanyue instinctively felt something was wrong and shook her head frantically.

[Has he been single for too long and finally couldn't help but want to make a move on a cute loli like me! Fear Points +99!]

Hearing the notification sound in his ears, Lu Siye immediately had black lines on his face.

With your flat figure, who would be interested in you?

"Are you sure?" Lu Siye patted the blazing blood saber placed by his feet, threatening her nakedly.

"I don't... it's impossible for me not to listen!" Fang Lanyue instantly chose to submit.

[...]

She came to Lu Siye's front, dragging her feet, and closed her eyes as if she had resigned herself to her fate, even puffing out her airport chest.

"Alright, alright, I know you have an airport at such a young age, stop showing it off!" Lu Siye said speechlessly.

"You actually weren't planning to make a move on a cute loli like me?" Fang Lanyue widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

"Make a move on what? Cuteness is not worth mentioning in front of sexiness. I only like mature women; I have zero interest in lolis!" Lu Siye clarified solemnly.

"Oh! Then I can rest easy." Fang Lanyue revealed a pair of small fangs, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

That scared me to death; fortunately, he's not interested in me.

Having no time to pay attention to what Fang Lanyue was thinking, Lu Siye controlled the Life-Death Talisman to leap out from his Dantian, followed his Meridians to the acupoint on his finger, and then tapped her on the back of her hand with one finger.
