Twin Dimension Yin-Yang Mirror: Attaining immortality through the martial path-Chapter 854 - 659: Wind Control + - 660: Incense

"Infinite incense fire, aid me in comprehending the Dao."

Zhou Ping’an activated his heart thought, once again mobilizing five hundred thousand incense flames. The immense energy surged into his mind, propelling his cognition to infinite heights.

Entering this state once more, he still found it to be incredibly wondrous.

It felt as though, at this moment, he had transformed into an emotionless and impartial entity—neither good nor evil—a supremely calm monster, whose mind encompassed the entire cosmos. All the secrets of heaven and earth lay bare before him.

"Perhaps the wondrous uses of incense fire go beyond my imagination. No wonder even the supreme beings of myth regard these seemingly humble mortals with great importance. It’s not without reason; there are indeed benefits to be found."

"Comprehending techniques, attaining enlightenment, and advancing cultivation levels—all of these can be achieved through incense fire..."

A flash of inspiration struck Zhou Ping’an. He probed his Heavenly Origin Nine Orifices, discovering that as the incense burned, the speed at which starlight was absorbed to strengthen the nine apertures in the boundless void rose endlessly.

The more incense fire burned, the greater the pull.

Zhou Ping’an was naturally well aware of the implications of this discovery.

Achieving perfection of the Nine Orifices meant the Stellar Spiritual Body had reached completion. However, this did not signify the physical body had reached its limits; rather, what remained was an enduring grind...

The nine apertures of the flesh encompassing the Nine Luminaries and Nine Stars could channel void energy, gradually growing stronger until ultimately transforming into a true cosmic star. A physical body as vast and indomitable as the starry sky itself—this is the path of the body cultivation at the Divine Martial Realm.

Accumulation.

It required countless years to grow gradually.

Of course, after achieving Nine Apertures Perfection, the Subduing Demon Order provided information indicating that the next trial, upon success, would grant him the Three Hundred Sixty Celestial Stars Map, embedding the Celestial Stars Formation within his body.

Such is the next step of body-refining techniques in the Divine Martial Realm of the Subduing Demon Sect.

The Subduing Demon Order had dangled this bait before him. To say he wasn’t tempted would be a lie.

However, for now, Zhou Ping’an had no intention of undertaking it.

The previous Subduing Banner trial had been dangerously close; relying on caution, opportunism, and the protection of the Fulong Pass formation, he barely escaped being captured by the sect’s peak experts.

Now, while his cultivation had improved and his strength significantly advanced,

he still felt that obtaining the Celestial Stars Map and advancing further with body cultivation techniques would likely be exceedingly difficult.

From his perspective, to ensure success without fail, it would be best to wait until his qi cultivation reached the Divine Martial Realm as well. Doing so would give him far greater confidence when entering the trial again.

Of course, whether at Nine Apertures Completion or after obtaining the map and opening the Celestial Stars Acupoints, both stages require vast quantities of void primordial power for growth.

This, in turn, necessitates an enormous amount of incense fire from the multitude of living beings to aid in his cultivation.

Otherwise, he would need to rely solely on infinite time, slowly grinding away.

Should incense fire be insufficient and progress too slow, who could say when an insurmountable calamity might arise—a fate akin to that of the old ancestor of the Subduing Demon Sect.

Besieged to death.

Furthermore, not only did this apply to body refinement; even with qi refinement, the speed at which the Dharma form coalesced could also be accelerated through the burning of incense fire.

In this way, the collection of incense fire became all the more crucial.

Heart thought flickered like lightning.

Zhou Ping’an tested the progress of his body-refining techniques. Then he examined his qi-refining Dharma cultivation, discovering that in this extraordinary state brought about by the burning of five hundred thousand incense flames, his cultivation speed had increased by hundreds of times.

This sensation was utterly intoxicating, making one reluctant to awaken.

Yet he understood that cultivating fundamental techniques at this moment was not particularly cost-effective. Even if he exhausted the remaining one million three hundred thousand incense flames, it might not yield substantial progress. freewebnøvel_com

The enhancement to his combat strength wouldn’t be particularly significant either.

It would be better to focus on improving secret techniques instead.

The Four Divine Kunpeng Skills—currently, the Sky-splitting Slash and the Heaven-covering Secret Technique had both been refined to completion. They were attuned to his thoughts, with power exceeding any ordinary measure.

The remaining two: Wind Control and Overturning Sea.

Overturning Sea focused on enhancing offensive power, following the path of one power overcoming ten skills.

For now, it could wait.

The Wind Control technique prioritized speed, which was essential for both attacking and escaping. With further improvements in speed, his survivability would rise substantially.

"Then I’ll enhance Wind Control."

Zhou Ping’an settled his intention.

His mind locked onto the Wind Control secret technique patterns within his Sea of Consciousness. Thoughts extended outward in all directions, perceiving the subtle disturbances of wind in the sky, and faintly glimpsing countless air currents forming roaring torrents through alternating heat and cold...

He even saw the thick layers of airflow in the lofty heights above, and in the endless void, the omnipresent Gang Wind scattering meteorites across the sky.

"Not enough. Still lacking full comprehension."

Boom...

Zhou Ping’an burned another five hundred thousand incense flames.

This time, his understanding of airflow deepened considerably. Finally, he realized: wind was not just wind—it was an outward manifestation of natural laws, with countless forms of existence.

"Master!"

A flash of inspiration surged in Zhou Ping’an’s mind. Blessed Spiritual Heart guided him to extend his hand outward.

Hum!

Streams of azure, white, and black light spiraled around him, suddenly expanding outward. The surrounding air ripped apart in dense, jet-black fissures. Beneath his feet, the ocean evaporated into a massive ten-li-wide deep chasm, as immense amounts of seawater were shredded into fine particles by the wind-flow ripples, fading into void.

"So it can be done this way."

Zhou Ping’an’s body orifice stirred as he unleashed the Wind Control skill.

A crescent-shaped golden wind blade swept outward, transforming into billions of fine golden needles midway, piercing deep into the seabed.
