As for whether it could be used or not.
He Song was not quite sure himself.
After leaving himself a way out, He Song spent his days studying Amulet Tao Introduction, besides his daily cultivation.
It must be said that, having already learned the Array Tao Introduction, He Song’s understanding of Amulet Tao Introduction was incredibly fast.
According to He Song’s calculations, he would only need about a year to fully comprehend the Amulet Tao Introduction.
By then, it would be time to get started on the actual practice.
Another year spent amulet making, by then, he should be able to earn spirit stones using Amulet Tao.
Starting with the low-quality Thick Earth Amulet, then low-quality Golden Light Amulet and low-quality Divine Movement Amulet.
When the success rate of making low-quality spirit amulets reached a certain level, he would try to make mid-level spirit amulets.
Amulet Tao Introduction.
It was quite different from Array Tao Introduction.
Although the Amulet Tao Introduction only contained three types of spirit amulet making methods, these three types of spirit amulets were divided into low-quality, mid-quality, and high-quality, corresponding to Qi Refining Early Stage, Qi-refining mid stage, and Qi-refining late stage.
That is to say.
Purchasing Amulet Tao Introduction would enable one to learn the making methods of these three types of spirit amulets at low, medium, and high-quality levels.
Compared to Array Tao Introduction, which only recorded three types of Array Skills, Amulet Tao Introduction was more cost-effective.
However, this was probably because spirit amulets were consumable items.
Also, Entry into the array tao required array tao talent, and those without talent, even after decades of study, might not be able to attain entry. (Refer to Chapter 17 for explanation)
Different difficulties.
Different gains.
Naturally, there was a gap between Amulet Tao Introduction and Array Tao Introduction.
He Song possessed Array Tao talent, which was why he was able to enter Array Tao successfully after studying for three years and set up the Spirit-Gathering Array.
If he didn’t have Array Tao talent, he might have wasted decades and still not been able to set up even the simplest Spirit-Gathering Array.
Amulet Tao was different.
Even ordinary cultivators, after years of practice, could make spirit amulets skillfully, and the success rate wouldn’t be too low.
With some good luck, they could even earn a lot of spirit stones by doing so.
Under such circumstances, most cultivators who wanted to learn a craftsmanship chose to study spirit amulets.
This also led to a drastic drop in the price of spirit amulets.
As for Array Tao and other Hundred Skills of Cultivation Truth, they were seldom studied.
Apart from Amulet Tao, the rest of the Hundred Skills of Cultivation Truth either required spirit stones as nourishment, natural talent, or a long period of study. In the power-valuing Cultivation World, they were naturally not favored by most people.
Major forces would definitely have people studying various Hundred Skills of Cultivation Truth.
But for loose cultivators, the opportunities and time to study these were scarce.
Nobody wanted to waste their cultivation time chasing an elusive opportunity.
Time was the ultimate killer of everything.
In the Cultivation World, cultivation was always the most important factor. On one hand, there was Amulet Tao, which anyone could learn, and it was a daily necessity. Once learned, one could quickly make a living from it.
On the other hand, there was Array Tao, which most likely required Array Tao talent. Failing to enter after wasting decades studying, and even slowing down the cultivation progress. For loose cultiva tors without time, resources, and power, the choice was obvious.
Even if they knew that, if they succeeded, their fate could be changed.
However, the long investment period, during which there would be no return on investment, but constant loss of time and cultivation, discouraged them.
Not that loose cultivators hadn’t tried.
But the vast majority of them failed during the lengthy investment phase.
As for those lucky few, who possessed Array Tao talent and successfully
learned the three basic Array Skills, and started to open their own spirit fields as loose cultivators.
As far as He Song knew, he had never met any of them, and he didn’t know what happened to them.
So, time flew by in the blink of an eye.
In this entire year, He Song didn’t hear any specific news about Evil Cultivators outside the Immortal Pavilion.
Even Wei Fan had not heard any news about the Evil Cultivators.
Every time they met at the beginning of the month, He Song would ask about it.
But Wei Fan just shook his head, indicating that he had not heard any news either.
Seeing this, He Song’s initial slight concern gradually turned into heaviness.
No news was the biggest news.
Perhaps… he should leave the Immortal Pavilion and hide in the mortal world for a while?
He Song thought about it, but quickly rejected the idea himself.
It wouldn’t work.
His wings were not yet strong, he had not even learned all the Qi Refining spells, nor had he bought a large number of spirit amulets for protection, and he had no artifacts to save his life.
If he left the Immortal Pavilion now, his safety would probably be even worse than staying in the Immortal Pavilion.
Instead of leaving the Immortal Pavilion at this moment.
It would be better to wait until his spirit rice matures, sell it a few times, enrich his spirit stone reserves, and greatly improve his combat power before making plans.
At least then, when traveling outside, he wouldn’t have to worry about losing his life to Evil Cultivators.
That’s what He Song thought at the time.
And that’s what he did.
Now, a year has passed, He Song opened his eyes, and a burst of spiritual pressure erupted from him.
“Sixth-tier Qi Refining! Good, good, good.”
Feeling the increased spirit power in his body, He Song’s face showed a fleeting expression of joy.
As early as a year ago, when He Song set up the Five Phases Array, he vaguely sensed that he would break through to the sixth-tier of Qi Refining within a year.
Unexpectedly, only now after a year had passed did He Song finally break through to the sixth-tier Qi Refining.
Although it was a bit later than he had expected.
But since he had broken through, it was a good thing.
A cultivation base at the sixth-tier Qi Refining could be considered a
middle-level in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.
As long as he could break through the bottleneck and enter the seventh-tier Qi Refining, he could instantly join the upper ranks, on par with Wei Fan and other high-level members of the Immortal Pavilion.
Thinking that Wei Fan’s current cultivation base was only at the eighth-tier of Qi Refining, while his own had reached the sixth-tier Qi Refining, He Song’s eyes flashed with a hint of pride.
Choosing Array Skills from the Hundred Truths of Cultivation was indeed the right choice.
If it weren’t for the support of the Spirit-Gathering Array, He Song’s cultivation progress would definitely be slow.
Perhaps, by now, he would have barely broken through to the fifth-tier Qi
Refining.
However.
Although he had successfully broken through to the sixth-tier Qi Refining, the joy on He Song’s face didn’t last long.
Sixth-tier Qi Refining.
Next, he should consider how to break through the Qi-refining late stage.
If he encountered an insurmountable bottleneck during the breakthrough, what should he do then?
A thought flashed through He Song’s mind, and his eyes involuntarily looked at his storage bag.
Inside the storage bag, a hundred spirit stones shone brightly. Amulet pen, amulet ink, and amulet paper were neatly arranged inside.
“Fortunately, everything is ready. I just need the right opportunity. After becoming an amulet Tao master, even if the bottleneck is difficult, with the existence of the spirit field, at least I would have spirit stones to buy
Breakthrough Elixirs..”
