Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 438 - 428: Unity and Great Success

On the desk, the copied Heart Method lay quietly.

As a gentle breeze passed through, the book pages fluttered slightly.

After Qin An composed his mind, he picked up the Heart Method.

On the cover of the Heart Method, the words "Bright Sacred Method" were written.

This Cultivation Technique is a Light Attribute technique. When cultivated to a profound level, it can transform True Essence into Light Attribute.

When deployed, the True Essence shines like sunlight.

It can both harm enemies with True Essence and use this strong light to protect oneself, making it a rather comprehensive Heart Method.

Moreover, many people in the Evil Extermination Bureau practice this Heart Method.

After all, the Evil Extermination Bureau deals with dangerous tasks daily. This versatile Heart Method can save the lives of many Mountain Patrol Generals in times of crisis.

Qin An pondered briefly and then opened the Heart Method.

As Qin An flipped through, he gradually grasped the essentials of the Bright Sacred Method.

Possessing a sixteenth-level Scholar Profession, he faced no hindrance in reading.

What would normally take several hours to finish, Qin An took less than half an hour to complete.

After finishing, Qin An closed the Heart Method, thinking to himself: "If I deduce it, I would have nine types of True Essence attributes, which is quite nice."

With this thought, Qin An sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating the True Essence within his body.

When the True Essence followed the path of the Bright Sacred Method within his body, a line of mist appeared before his eyes.

After the mist emerged, it twisted like a serpent.

In less than a breath, it formed into a line of text.

[You have cultivated the Bright Sacred Method, triggering the Scholar Profession talent]

[Bright Sacred Method (Great Success)]

This is a Heart Method of the Unity Realm, so after triggering the Scholar Profession talent, Qin An instantly cultivated it to the Great Success of Unity Realm level.

Qin An slightly restrained his mind, raised his left hand, and a trace of True Essence burst from his fingertips.

Immediately, the True Essence suddenly shone brightly.

This light initially weak, then turned as blazing as the sun.

As it dazzled the eyes, a warm power enveloped the body.

"The Bright Sacred Method truly deserves to be a Heart Method of the Unity Realm; in terms of effectiveness and other aspects, it far surpasses the Inner God Realm Heart Method."

Qin An shook his head slightly, dispelled the True Essence in his hand, allowing the light to gradually disappear, and then turned to cultivate the Eight Extremes Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique.

As Qin An executed the Eight Extremes Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique, the mist before him dispersed with a bang, as if an invisible hand had swept it away completely.

However, before the mist completely vanished, it condensed into new text again.

[You possess the Eight Extremes Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique and the Bright Sacred Method, intending to merge them]

[Unfortunately, due to insufficient talent, the fusion failed]

[Unwilling, after meditating for several years, you decided to burn a large amount of vitality]

[After burning a large amount of vitality, a flash of inspiration occurred in your mind]

[As this inspiration expanded greatly, and after burning a large amount of vitality again, you finally realized and ultimately merged the two into one]

[You named the new Cultivation Technique Nine Rotations Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique]

[Nine Rotations Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique (Great Success)]

When the last line of text appeared, it immediately dispersed with a bang, transforming into a large amount of information that drilled into Qin An’s mind.

Qin An closed his eyes and in just a few breaths, completely mastered the Nine Rotations Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique.

After reaching the level of the Nine Rotations Bodhi Golden Dragon Technique, not only did he possess nine types of True Essence attributes, but he also retained the original characteristics.

At this moment, Qin An had already pushed the Heart Method to Great Success in the Unity Realm, and his power had also reached the highest level since arriving at Xunyang Prefecture.

With no expression, Qin An stood up and circulated True Essence.

The Nine-Colored True Essence surged within his body like a great river rushing throughout his entire body.

Qin An felt the intertwining of True Essence and Divine Sense, needing only the slightest thought to move it effortlessly to any part of his body.

"Now, my Divine Sense and True Essence are becoming more and more intertwined. With the nine attributes gathered together, its Cultivation Technique and various effects are beyond the normal Unity Realm, perhaps I can rely on this unmatched foundation to contend with the Perfection of Unity Realm."

Qin An thought to himself, "However, my monster souls have been consumed a bit too much."

Just now, to merge the two Heart Methods, Qin An spent ten monster souls in total.

He originally had fifteen, but now only five remain.

With this situation continuing, Qin An would still need to deduce four more Cultivation Techniques.

In total, he would need forty more monster souls.

That means, he would have to slay forty Unity Realm monster pseudo-gods, or have enough merit to exchange for forty monster souls.

But either path is extremely difficult.

Qin An thought secretly, "The resources in Xunyang Prefecture seem to be no longer sufficient for me."

Forty Unity Realm monsters or pseudo-gods would probably require killing all the monsters and pseudo-gods in Xunyang Prefecture.

But doing so would take too much time.

After reaching the Unity Realm, only then did he realize that these so-called resources were becoming increasingly scarce.

Not only for him, but also for other Mountain Patrol Generals.

Therefore, after a little thought, Qin An temporarily pushed this idea aside.

"Having now reached Great Success in the Unity Realm, I should go out and complete the task given by the General Mansion."

This is a transaction.

The General Mansion gives him the Shattered Void Stone, and he needs to go to the ruins of the Ancient Battlefield to meet the Ancient Yi and deliver the General Mansion’s letter to the Ancient Yi.

Due to the time spent cultivating the Scholar Profession proficiency, Qin An had already used up too much time.

Therefore, he now must head to the Ancient Battlefield ruins without delay, otherwise, this transaction would fail because of him.

With this in mind, Qin An stopped thinking further and then walked out of the courtyard gate, heading toward the Internal Affairs Department.

First, he obtained a fast horse from the Prefecture Officer, and then left the Evil Extermination Bureau amid the envious and admiring gazes of many Prefecture Generals.

Many Prefecture Generals watched Qin An’s figure recede into the distance, and many who knew Qin An’s character clenched their fists, thinking inwardly.

"For a whole three months, Mr. Qin stayed inside the Evil Extermination Bureau. This time when he goes out, he will surely stir up a storm!"

...

On the official road, a swift horse was galloping by.

Qin An sat on the horseback, squinting slightly while looking at the bright weather.

Now the season of continuous rain had passed, the sun was just right, warm as spring when shining on the body.

Though winter was approaching, the weather in Xunyang Prefecture was still intoxicating.

This time, Qin An was traveling alone. Compared to the past when he traveled with Liu Yi, he felt this solo journey had its own flavor.

Up ahead, the mountains gradually appeared, the destination was near.

Qin An did not stop, he continued on horseback into the rugged mountain path, riding straight until he arrived at the familiar cave entrance.

Before the cave, Prefecture Generals from the Evil Extermination Bureau still guarded steadfastly.

As Qin An rode past, the gold badge at his waist shimmered brightly.

Anyone who saw this gold badge would know Qin An’s identity as the Mountain Patrol Golden General and would lower their heads in awe, not daring to meet his gaze.

Some even quietly retreated several steps, fearing Qin An’s gaze might fall upon them, causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

Now, Qin An had already been promoted to Mountain Patrol Golden General, representing the pinnacle of power in Xunyang Prefecture.

It could be said that with a word, Qin An could decide the life and death of most forces in Xunyang Prefecture, and ordinary people dared not offend him.

Even people from major powers, when seeing Qin An, would have to greet him with a respectful ’sir’ and observe utmost etiquette, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Unconcerned with the gazes around him, Qin An rode into the cave alone.

After winding his way through the dim cavern, he finally arrived at the bronze gate.

At this moment, Prefecture Generals were already guarding the bronze gate, and even a Mountain Patrol Silver General was chatting with the Prefecture Generals.

Qin An’s arrival immediately drew everyone’s attention.

The Mountain Patrol Silver General was slightly taken aback, then respectfully stepped forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Greetings, sir. What brings you here?"

Qin An dismounted, saying indifferently, "I want to enter the ancient battlefield relic."

The Mountain Patrol Silver General did not obstruct him and then stepped aside to allow passage: "Please, sir, feel free."

If Qin An was still a Mountain Patrol Silver General, to enter the ancient battlefield relic, he might have needed to rely on Jin Fengyu and others, and it would have been quite a hassle.

But now that he was a Mountain Patrol Golden General, utilizing his authority to access the ancient battlefield relic was not difficult.

After handing the horse to the Mountain Patrol Silver General, Qin An walked toward the bronze gate.

Receiving the horse respectfully, the Mountain Patrol Silver General watched Qin An’s figure disappear behind the bronze gate and then sighed with relief.

However, a hint of doubt lingered in the Mountain Patrol Silver General’s mind.

"This sir is very young and looks unfamiliar."

He had never seen him before.

While the Mountain Patrol Silver General was puzzled, a Prefecture General quietly stepped forward and whispered a few words into his ear.

Upon hearing these words, the Mountain Patrol Silver General immediately showed an astonished expression.

"So it was Mr. Qin!"

After saying this, the Mountain Patrol Silver General’s face displayed a look of regret.

"If I had known it was Mr. Qin, I would have spoken a few more words with him, leaving a good impression, which might be useful in the future."

Thinking this, the Mountain Patrol Silver General felt even more regretful for not engaging in a deeper conversation with Qin An.

Many Jianghu people, seeing the Mountain Patrol Silver General’s regretful demeanor, began speculating about Qin An’s identity.

In the silent cave, waves of whispers occasionally echoed through.

...

Qin An was unaware of the events that followed; he had already stepped through the bronze gate.

Once again, that familiar sense of blur hit him, and Qin An disappeared from his original spot, arriving in a relatively wide hill.

Each entry into the ancient battlefield relic was random.

However, Qin An was not in a hurry. Instead, he pulled out a map of the ancient battlefield relic from his possession and identified the location before hurriedly heading to the mirage tower.

This journey was without danger, and he even encountered many Jianghu people and Mountain Patrol Generals.

They all clasped their fists in salute to Qin An, their attitudes extremely respectful.

This was unprecedented in the past.

Qin An did not cause any incidents along the way, prioritizing his mission, and soon arrived at the mirage tower entrance.

"Luck is really on my side, not much waiting is needed," Qin An thought to himself.

The mirage tower only opened every so often, and the time since the last opening was nearly up.

Qin An estimated that by tomorrow, the mirage tower would reopen.

At that moment, not only Jianghu people but also many Mountain Patrol Generals were on the mountain path.

However, those who came were all of the Mountain Patrol Silver General level.

Qin An, with the gold badge hanging at his waist, stood there like a luminous firefly in the dark.

No one dared to approach for conversation, and even those Mountain Patrol Generals kept a respectful distance from Qin An.

Qin An had already mentally prepared, knowing this situation would arise once he reached the Mountain Patrol Golden General level.

He did not say much, patiently finding a rock to sit on, and took out some rations from his bag to eat carefully.

The night passed without incident.

Until the next day, when the sky brightened into a white luminescence, the space ahead twisted dramatically.

Subsequently, the entrance to the mirage tower slowly emerged.

Everyone focused their gaze on Qin An, refraining from rash actions.

Qin An knew they were all waiting for him to enter; after all, his status was apparent, and no one dared to overstep this identity.

Without further ado, Qin An slung his pack over his shoulder and walked toward the mirage tower entrance.

As soon as he stepped inside, everything became a blur.

Once the blur cleared, Qin An found himself on a land full of scorched earth.

But this time, the situation was slightly different. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Right after stepping onto this land, a pulling sensation arose beneath his feet.

Qin An discovered the scenery around him was rapidly receding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
