Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Atop a three-tiered wooden sailing ship, Tao Yu sat in the cabin, his expression unavoidably drifting into a daze.

Looking at the Nine Yin True Scripture in front of him, he genuinely felt a bit dizzy.

It's really just given to myself?

It seemed too simple...

Tao Yu was not without means to obtain the Nine Yin True Scripture, but Zhongnan Mountain was vast, and searching for it would definitely require a lot of effort.

Moreover, from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang coastlines, it would take traversing three provinces to reach Zhongnan Mountain!

Whether it's Zhongnan Mountain or Mount Shaoshi, both are actually north of Xiangyang, within the sphere of influence of the grassland powers.

It's just that the grasslands themselves don't have a large population, adopting a sort of subcontracting system. Coupled with the fact that Qiu Chuji had some connections with Genghis Khan back in the day, and Shaolin Temple had sealed itself off from the outside world, so for the time being, these two major forces hadn't been too greatly affected.

Without cars, relying solely on horses, traveling day and night, it would still take at least a month or more, plus the time spent searching for ancient tombs. Tao Yu's original plan was simply to find the Nine Yin True Scripture and then go home to report his safety.

But it was given to me right at the start?

This...

Slightly caught Tao Yu off guard.

The most important thing was, Huang Rong made no demands!

"Is this just acting on a whim... All I can say is worthy of being Huang the Eccentric..."

Tao Yu sighed in his heart and eventually reached out to open the Nine Yin True Scripture.

"If someone helps me, I'll help others in return. When the time comes, I'll lend a hand too. After all, that Titan thing is indeed troublesome."

However, after flipping open the cover, Tao Yu stared at the contents inside for a long time without speaking.

Really can't understand anything...

...

"You can't understand it? How could that be, didn't you say you've begun to recognize the meridians and you understand the acupoints very well?"

Huang Rong, with a smile at the corners of his mouth, feigned curiosity as he repeated what Tao Yu had confidently said earlier while looking at him approaching for advice.

This directly almost made Tao Yu die of embarrassment on the spot.

He then also remembered that the Black Wind Twin Demons had the Nine Yin True Scripture for so many years with little progress because it involved a lot of Daoist knowledge. It wasn't something that could be easily mastered just by recognizing meridians and discerning acupoints!

In Divine Sculpture, Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl managed to learn part of the techniques from the ancient tomb because Yang Guo had studied at the Quanzhen Sect and was specifically crammed with relevant content.

A few days ago I was still a meridian neophyte, and for Daoism, I could only recite "The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao." how could I possibly self-study the Nine Yin True Scripture!

And yet my initial plan was quite perfect.

Tao Yu imagined himself traversing mountains and rivers, arriving at Zhongnan Mountain after much hardship, then relying on the Corpse Refining Art to search for the dragon vein and locate the tomb of the living dead. After two months he would have finally found the Nine Yin True Scripture, then to find he couldn't understand it...

"Probably, I would get so furious that I would catch a third-generation disciple from Quanzhen Sect to translate it for me."

Tao Yu simulated the mental journey.

As for whether the person translating would employ the methods Huang Rong used to trick Ouyang Feng?

If it's a trap, so be it. I'm not afraid of side effects; I'll just reverse-practice the Nine Yin if I have to.

Regardless of whether it drives me mad, the real question is... just how strong is it?

...

"Master, what is the meaning of 'gathering the Five Elements'?"

Tao Yu sat in front of Huang Rong like a good baby, asking about some of the parts he did not understand.

This old man is quite arrogant, wanting to take a disciple but unwilling to speak up directly, always wanting me to beg him. Does he really think I won't ask?

Dream on!

Fortunately, Huang Rong wasn't particular about worldly etiquette, and Tao Yu found it quite comfortable dealing with him.

Strange temper aside, the man has real ability!

And teaching the Nine Yin was in earnest, to teach such martial arts upon meeting, even taking a disciple was indeed naturally appropriate. Tao Yu acknowledged this mentor-disciple connection.

"Wood Spirit of the East, Metal Soul of the West, Fire God of the South, Water Essence of the North, and Earth Intention at the Center."

"And what about the 'Four Symbols of Unity'?"

"Hide the eyes' divinity, gather the ears' rhythm, regulate the breathing through the nose, seal the energy in the tongue."

"And then..."

Half a month of life upon the water passed in the blink of an eye, Peach Blossom Island was located in the coastal area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, connected to the Yangtze River.

To reach Xiangyang by water was actually faster, avoiding many complications on the road.

As he was about to disembark, Huang Rong stood on the deck with a weary face and silently put on that bizarre mask again, concealing his heavy dark circles.

Tao Yu completely played the old man, enduring Huang Pharmacist for an entire half month.

But it must be said, Huang Pharmacist was indeed very learned and talented. Even though he himself did not practice the Nine Yin True Scripture, he could provide perfect answers to all of Tao Yu's questions every time.

For this reason, by the time they disembarked, Tao Yu had successfully cultivated the first thread of pure inner strength of the Nine Yin True Scripture, gathering it in his dantian!

[Northern Dipper]: A foundational method within the Nine Yin True Scripture for cultivating superior skills, using the human body as a Daoist repository to tap potential and condense pure inner strength.

This was the internal cultivation method of the Nine Yin True Scripture, and also considered the foundational method of the Nine Yin True Scripture, and yet just for this step, with the enhancement of the twice deified stance skill and the help of the twice deified talent "Fist Intent," Tao Yu had to endure the old man for half a month just to barely make a start!

This was the first time it took him so long to grasp a skill!

"Master, it's done!"

"Rascal! What's done now?"

Huang Pharmacist, suffering from severe lack of sleep, seemed very irritable.

But he quickly froze, then immediately grabbed Tao Yu's wrist, and with a light prod, felt the rebound of that thread of pure inner strength from Tao Yu.

Since he intended to test and understand, Huang Pharmacist naturally drew back to avoid injuring his precious disciple.

"Good, good, good, your master's hard work these days has not been in vain."

Even with a character as eccentric as his, owning such a fine disciple made Huang Pharmacist beam with joy, although it was not visible behind his mask.

Standing beside them, Cheng Lixue and Zhang Hao both showed clear envy.

They hadn't expected that Young Master Tao, relying on his talent, would become a disciple of this earthly immortal overnight and even be taught a divine skill.

As members of a martial arts sect, they naturally knew that the secrets of cultivation should be asked about sparingly, so besides offering their congratulations, they dared not inquire further.

"Thank you, Master. Without your guidance, even ten times the amount of time wouldn't have allowed me to understand it, let alone get started."

Tao Yu's gratitude was genuine and heartfelt.

"Hmph, just don't come to torture me at night anymore. Let's go, get off the boat. I haven't informed them. We'll find an inn to rest first. Don't disturb me anymore, we'll look around town after a good rest to see what's happened recently, and then we'll go see them..."

"Alright..."

As Tao Yu followed Huang Pharmacist off the boat, walking down the plank, he noticed Cheng Lixue and Zhang Hao, who had been adrift at sea for half a month and were now unaccustomed to being back on land, and felt a bit helpless.

These two fellows really were a bit embarrassing. They were the facade figures of their Snowy Mountain Sect. What kind of weakling world is this?

Thinking of the odd aspects of Cheng Lixue, the heroine, Tao Yu felt a wave of dizziness. It couldn't be one of those strange, racy worlds, could it? Thinking about it, it actually seemed quite possible.

"Miss Cheng, are you alright?"

Ignoring Zhang Hao, who was crouched on the dock vomiting into the water, Tao Yu steadied Cheng Lixue's plump body and asked.

"I'm fine, thank you, Young Master Tao."

Cheng Lixue looked at Tao Yu's handsome face. The paleness from seasickness on her face gave way to a blush, and the masculine scent from his nose cleared her head considerably.

She then turned her head away, not daring to look any longer.

After all, even when on the boat, she had secretly sneaked into Tao Yu's room and covered her mouth the whole time.

But in front of others, she still had to play her role.

Tao Yu naturally let her be.

In fact, it was quite thrilling...

"That's good, let's go."

"Okay."

Cheng Lixue, not giving any more thought to anything else, simply followed Tao Yu and Huang Pharmacist.

Zhang Hao, who had vomited half of his insides out, hurriedly finished and then chased after them with his sword and belongings in tow...

...

Arriving at the inn, because of the half month of travel by boat and carriage, the other three all wanted to rest well.

However, Tao Yu was full of energy as he sat at the bedside, taking a slow breath.

"Before, I always thought that the Nine Yin True Scripture would be some kind of cold and sinister inner strength, but I never expected it to be the most authentic foundational method of Taoism..."

Tao Yu let out a slow sigh.

If it weren't for my master, it would have been impossible for me to learn it so quickly. Now, let's see what the limits of this method are!

Deification!
