To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 283: 173: Discussing and Debating the Law

Translator: 549690339

Jiuzhen County is located in the Southern Barbarians area, with little development, making it not very prosperous.

Such a place naturally has a sparse population.

Before Jinghai Country was destroyed, it was said to have a territory of a thousand miles, with a population of 500,000 households, capable of fielding 300,000 troops.

However, this bragging was just for show; if you took it seriously, you would be foolish.

As Lu Yuan estimated.

Jinghai Country’s so-called 500,000 households were mostly exaggerated; if halved, having 300,000 households was considered good enough.

As for fielding 300,000 troops, it seems like all adult men would be counted.

Taking into consideration the above two sets of data, Jinghai Country’s so-called territory of a thousand miles, having a population of 1.5 to 1.6 million would be considered good enough.

This population figure is from before the country’s destruction. Now that this country has been destroyed and suffered several years of war, the current population is estimated to be around one million.

And out of this one million population, Lu Yuan has to share it with White Phoenix Temple.

At most, each person would have only 500,000 people.

500,000 people…

Thinking about this, Lu Yuan felt speechless: “Anyway, after I establish my fiefdom, I’ll focus on developing the people’s livelihood and recuperating for several decades. I don’t believe I can’t raise the population to one million. After all, with my life span, I can wait. There’s no need to rush.” What kind of situation was this!

It was not easy to obtain an Immortal Technique, but when starting to cultivate it, there were still many difficulties.

Indeed, nothing in the world was easy.

“Fortunately, even if I can’t temporarily gather one million people, I still have other methods to cultivate if I want to.”

Lu Yuan’s eyebrows furrowed but quickly relaxed. Soon, a smile appeared on his face as he took out a jade pendant from his bosom.

It was the Immortal Fate he had obtained from Sun Siwen.

He had this Immortal Fate for more than ten years. However, for such a long time, he had been trapped by the lack of a path and could never utilize it.

But now, after reading the Taiping Dao Book and some of the Immortal methods within it, Lu Yuan finally understood why he couldn’t open the jade pendant.

“Just as I thought earlier, this jade pendant has an Immortal’s Restriction on it, used to protect the Spiritual Energy and information inside. To open it, you need a special method and Divine Sense.”

Lu Yuan stroked the jade pendant while reading the Taiping Dao Book.

This Dao scripture contained many marvelous methods.

Among them were mantra techniques and refining qi, cultivating Divine Sense, refining tools and talismans, and so on. It was almost like an encyclopedia of the Immortal Method.

Among these marvelous methods, there was a record on how to break the restriction of a jade pendant.

“However, opening the restriction requires the cooperation of Divine Sense.

Now that I don’t have Divine Sense, I can’t even try to use it, because it’s like a skilled woman without rice to cook; it just can’t be done.

So I can only wait for now. Wait until I break through Inborn, condense Martial Dao True Intent, which can compare to Immortal Sense.

Only then can I attempt to open the jade pendant.”

Earlier, when Lu Yuan had a conversation with Yang Jing, he had learned some descriptions of Martial Dao True Intent from him.

Now, comparing it to the description of Divine Sense in the Taiping Dao Book, he found that these two types of mental power were quite similar.

Therefore, by inference, what Divine Sense can do, Martial Dao True Intent should also be able to do.

By then, using the method of breaking the restriction in the Taiping Dao Book, opening the jade pendant with Martial Dao True Intent would be a natural progression.

“In this jade pendant, what can now be confirmed is that a large amount of Immortal Spirit Energy has been stored inside.

If I can open it, then relying on this Immortal Spirit Energy, I might not even need to gather millions of people, and I can directly cultivate the Taiping Dao Book.

After all, the Taiping Dao Book requires the gathering of people to use the power of their Qi Luck to worship the Heavenly Pillar, then attract the Immortal Spirit Energy from the outside world and the essence of the sun, moon, and stars for one’s own cultivation.

Now that I have Immortal Spirit Energy, I can skip that step. I can completely rely on the Immortal Spirit Energy in the jade pendant to directly cultivate the Taiping Dao Book.

As for the Qi Luck needed when mentioned during the cultivation of the Dao Book, I now have several hundred thousand people under me, so it’s barely enough for cultivation.”

As Lu Yuan pondered, he became more relaxed.

Anyway, he had many options to choose from.

The limitations of the Taiping Dao Technique didn’t bother him much, and there was no need to rigidly follow the rules and requirements for cultivation.

After reading the Dao Book several times and pondering the key points of cultivation, Lu Yuan didn’t indulge himself further, but put the book away and picked up the jade pendant, infusing his Inner Strength into it and started to refine it once again.

For him, Cultivation was no longer a problem.

However, to cultivate, he still needed to break through Innate first. Without the Martial Dao True Intent, he couldn’t open the jade pendant, and everything would come to an end.

Therefore, the primary objective at this point was to refine his Inner Strength to the limit, then break through Innate.

Lu Yuan always had a clear plan for himself, and at this time, he wouldn’t lose his focus and chase after minor things.

So, he began to slowly cultivate.

Having cultivated for a night, Lu Yuan felt his Inner Strength had become somewhat purer.

Looking at the sky, it was already a hazy white, and it was early morning.

Today was the start of the preaching conference.

At that time, representatives from various Dao paths from all over Tiannan and Northsea will take the stage to preach, except for the six major Dao paths.

Earlier, Yang Jing had mentioned that listening to more preaching can greatly benefit one’s cultivation mindset and breakthrough to Innate.

At this moment, Lu Yuan was busy breaking through to Innate, so he wouldn’t

miss this conference..
