I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 372 . One day can make up for ten years of effort.
The next day
The experiment with "Purifying Wish Power" was of great significance, so it was more convenient to return to their own home.
After the family had finished packing, they were just about to go and say goodbye to Zhou He when the old Taoist priest beat them to it by paying a visit himself.
"You're leaving? Good timing, I won't hold you back. My senior brother and I are going to Chang'an to set up an array for The Empress Dowager's Summer Palace."
"The Summer Palace? The place where The Empress Dowager spends her tranquil years..." Lu Yao said, "She is leaving the Imperial City then."
Zhou He laughed, "Exactly, and it's for the best. It spares us from the Heavenly Demon Empress Dowager causing chaos and unrest in the Imperial City."
The old Taoist evidently had an attitude of sending off a plague god.
Lu Yao nodded and brandished the White Paper Crane in his hand, "Then we shall meet another day, keep in touch often."
Zhou He also laughed, "Keep in touch, till we meet again!"
In an era where telephones were not yet widespread, Spirit Refinement experts already had their own smartphones.
~~~~~~~
After saying farewell to Zhou He, the family prepared to leave.
Lu Yao also wanted to ask Yu Yanmei if she wanted to go back with them, especially remembering that this female Grandmaster was very fond of flying on Spiritual Sparrowhawks.
Li Pei, as if knowing what her husband was going to ask, preemptively said, "My master can't stay idle. During the days you were away, she went demon beast hunting with Fu Fangsheng."
Liao Ya also spoke up, "Junior Brother, to keep in touch conveniently, I gave my Vermilion Bird to Grandmaster Yu. When you have a moment, make another one for me."

"No problem, then let's head home first."
The group mounted the Spiritual Sparrowhawk, and amidst the gust of wind whipped up by its wings, they soared into the sky, reaching into the clouds.
On the way home, they all took turns riding the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon summoned by Lu Yao with curiosity.
The average speed of the Spiritual Sparrowhawk was 650 kilometers per hour, and the dragon's speed was about the same, hovering around 600 kilometers per hour.
But using magical treasures wasn't without cost; it consumed immense Mind Force to maintain, so in comparison, the Spiritual Sparrowhawk was more cost-effective.
The speed of the Spiritual Sparrowhawk was extremely fast, and even with the time spent playing with magical treasures on the way, it took less than an hour and a half for the family to return to Yunzhou.
Lu Yao patted the heads of the three babies, grateful that his efforts were not in vain. Having them was just so convenient!)
Moreover, they served not only as transport but also as the best aerial warning and force deterrent.
"Head to the sky for surveillance, forbid anyone from approaching!"
The three Spiritual Sparrowhawks screeched in response, obeying their master's command as they flapped their wings and soared into the sky, circling above.
Lu Yao had too many secrets on him,
~~~~~~~~~
Lu Yao took out all the jars and containers he brought back and began the experiment with "Purifying Wish Power."
"Offerings are toxic." The wish power from Blue Star, though massive, contained too many negative emotions; using it directly would inevitably result in madness or idiocy.
Lu Yao's idea was to sever the human emotions by the barrier between two worlds, achieving the purpose of filtration.
He didn't dare claim to make the wish power the same as that of his sisters, but at the very least, it should be easily absorbable.
With this thought, he first took out a sculpture—a tri-colored figurine of a female dancer.
Originally, this "Offering Vessel" stored the wish power of about a million people. Although vast, it was highly impure, and certainly, no one would dare to use it.
However, after two rounds of transportation between worlds, only half, or 500,000 people's worth of power, remained.
And the most crucial point was—the severance of thoughts by the barrier between two worlds. These wish powers, no longer supported by thoughts, had become rootless duckweeds.
At this moment, they all transformed into the standard level of ordinary temple wish power, akin to a normal person muttering a few words in front of a deity's statue.
While quite ordinary, the quantity was simply too great! And there was more than just one like this!
Lu Yao then took out an ancient Tang Dynasty painting—the "Night Illumination Map."
This painting was world-famous, depicting the most beloved horse of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. The wish power stored in it was also exceptionally vast, and even after deducting the loss, there was the equivalent of 5 million people's worth left!
In the Otherworld, even the temples with the most abundant incense would take decades to accumulate such an amount.
And Lu Yao had over a dozen such items in his possession! Such wish power was almost inexhaustible on Blue Star!
This was the advantage of having an entire modernized world as a support system; no need to worry about resources for cultivation, just comfortably exploit the advantage.
~~~~~~~~~~
Next, it was time to absorb wishes for nourishment and convert them for my own use.
"Out!"
Lu Yao's divine soul traveled out of his body, hovering three feet above his head, and in one go absorbed the wishes of 10,000 people as a trial.
This was the smallest amount that could manifest in the real world, any less would be as futile as water.
The strand of uniquely rhythmic fluctuation was engulfed by the divine soul like a giant whale sucking in water, vanishing without a trace.
The divine soul's radiance flickered a few times, and Lu Yao felt as if he had drunk a cup of beer, with no significant reaction.
Continuing to absorb wishes, once it reached 100,000, his divine soul started to feel heavy, as if a common person had become drunk.
Lu Yao suddenly realized, "Under normal circumstances, this is my daily absorption limit. But... I have quite a few cards up my sleeve!"
No sooner had he spoken than the "Ice Jade Bracelet" on his wrist emitted a strange frigidness that shot straight to his forehead.
The strand of drowsy intoxication in his divine soul instantly disappeared, as if it were only an illusion.
The mystical Icy Heart Concentration had a miraculous effect on Spirit Refining Cultivation, the first card Lu Yao had prepared.
Thus, he continued to absorb wishes.
With the magical effect of the Ice Jade, Lu Yao managed to absorb the wishes of 500,000 people before he stopped.
At this point, there was a buzzing in his head, and he couldn't help but be bombarded with miscellaneous thoughts, which even the Ice Jade had trouble suppressing.
Lu Yao's expression unchanged, played his second card.
The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon suddenly appeared! This time in its full 50-meter-long form, it cried out a lofty Dragon's Chant to its master!
The authoritative dragon's roar became visible sound waves that covered the entire area, instantly bringing clarity to Lu Yao's mind, scattering and dissolving the distracting thoughts.
"Just like a wake-up call! This Dragon's Chant has an immediate effect on the mind!"
Lu Yao remarked, and continued to absorb wishes as if nothing had happened.
By now, his out-of-body divine soul, after containing these uniquely rhythmic mental fluctuations, had become twice its original size, almost a foot long, with its prowess also increased several times over!
At that time, the three sisters, hearing the Dragon's Chant, hurried over. They circled around Lu Yao, carefully checking him, and only when they confirmed their husband was fine did they relax.
Smelling their sweet scent, Lu Yao felt his divine soul was incredibly comfortable.
And as the sisters' pure positive willpower flowed into him, his divine soul felt even warmer and more content, as if he were soaking in a hot spring.
In terms of effect, his three lovers were even more important than all his trump cards combined.
~~~~~~~~~~~
After a cozy time with his family, Lu Yao absorbed another 500,000 people's worth of wishes before he stopped cultivating.
At this moment, his divine soul was nearly two feet long, radiating a more dazzling light.
It was several times larger than originally, and its power must have also increased many times over!
What followed was to test the results of this cultivation!
In the expectant gaze of the three sisters, Lu Yao raised his hand to point, and the Lake Sword shot out.
The original speed of the Flying Sword was 300 meters per second.
But this time, with a loud "boom", the Flying Sword suddenly exploded with a ring of air waves cutting through the sky, astonishingly reaching the speed of sound!
Li Pei was the first to praise, "Sword energy thundering, piercing through everything! My husband's Flying Sword has reached perfection!"
Liao Ya and Liao Qe rejoiced, "Junior brother, has your plan succeeded?"
"It has! One day now equals ten years of effort!"
Lu Yao excitedly controlled the sonic-speed Flying Sword, flying several laps with a trail of shock waves.
At this moment, controlling the sword at the speed of sound meant he had crossed the minor realm of object command and could proceed with 'possession' cultivation.
Since he had practiced Spirit Refinement and Out-of-Body Technique, only a little over a month had passed!
