?Chapter 915: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 912 King Ming Art Chapter 915: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 912 King Ming Art “Subdue the Tiger Technique, Wheel-turning Scripture…
King Ming Art…” Han Li quickly scanned over them and recited the names of these cultivation techniques, which from their names alone, it was evident that the jade slips recorded were indeed Buddhist Incantations.
“King Ming Art!
I’ve heard of this cultivation technique before.
It’s a rare method exclusively practiced by the Vajra Guardian of Buddhism, and it seems extremely difficult to cultivate.
How did this ancestor of the Feng Family come to possess this spell?
Show me the jade slip; see if this cultivation technique could eliminate the Evil Qi.” However, the moment the words “King Ming Art” were uttered, Monarch Great Development spoke in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Han Li felt a surge of joy.
He didn’t care how this Feng Family ancestor came to possess this technique; as long as it could help him remove the Evil Qi, that was what mattered.
Without a second thought, he tossed the jade slip he held into a bamboo tube behind him.
For the time being, Monarch Great Development focused intently on understanding the cultivation technique within the jade slip, while Han Li unapologetically began pilfering the valuables from Feng’s Hideout, stuffing them into his storage pouch.
Naturally, Han Li would have liked to take everything with him, but unfortunately his storage pouch was limited in space; apart from the Spirit Stones, he had to selectively pick and choose the rest.
He definitely took a few Daoist paper talismans.
As for materials and symbols, he took a small portion that was useful to him.

As for the Magic Artifacts, aside from two or three with extraordinary effects, Han Li left the rest untouched on the shelves, not moving them a bit.
After selecting the items, Han Li faced a large pile of jade slips and sifted through them for a particular cultivation technique that piqued his interest which he had noticed earlier when scanning with his Divine Sense.
He then sat cross-legged in the hall, quietly meditating.
Time slowly passed, and after a while, Monarch Great Development’s voice finally echoed in the empty hall, immediately drawing Han Li’s attention away from the technique he was reading.
“This King Ming Art is a bit sinister!
Although it’s a Buddhist cultivation method, its practice is incredibly aggressive, almost hinting at devilish tendencies,” Monarch Great Development slowly said.
“Devilish art!
What do you mean?
Can this technique rid me of the Evil Qi on my body?” Han Li asked calmly, his heart sinking.
“Don’t be anxious.
Speaking of the Evil Qi, I have to congratulate you.
This cultivation technique can indeed solve your significant problem.
However, this spell doesn’t drive out and dissipate the Evil Qi but uses a method similar to the devilish arts by refining and utilizing the Evil Qi.
But from what we see in the cultivation methods, this technique seems somewhat dangerous.
Evil Qi is not something that can be easily controlled.
You might want to weigh the pros and cons and consider looking for another Buddhist cultivation technique,” Monarch Great Development pondered for a moment, voiced his thoughts one by one, and then threw the jade slip back from the bamboo tube.
“Turning Evil Qi for personal use?
Won’t cultivating it to a higher level lead me onto the path of ancient devilish techniques?” Han Li caught the jade slip, his heart tensing as he asked cautiously.
“There’s no need to worry about that.
Since the King Ming Art is a cultivation technique practiced by Buddhist protectors, it naturally wouldn’t really involve devilish paths.
Although its methods of cultivation are somewhat extreme, it differs greatly from the typical devilish arts that cultivate Evil Qi.
It only uses Evil Qi as an aid, not directly manipulating it to attack and harm enemies.
This retains the aggressive nature of the Evil Qi but mitigates most of its harmful effects.
Amazing!
There truly are great talents within Buddhism who could create such a technique that transitions from devilish to Buddhist.
I suspect their intellect might even exceed mine, if not at least equal it.
This cultivation technique is also a Grand Divine Power comparable to the Great Development Technique,” Monarch Great Development mentioned with a hint of admiration.
Hearing Monarch Great Development compare this technique to the Great Development Technique, Han Li couldn’t help but harbor some doubts.
He then immersed his Divine Sense into the jade slip again, carefully reviewing the King Ming Art.
But after only a brief observation, he exclaimed in surprise.
“Eh!
This spell feels so familiar, almost as if I’ve seen it somewhere before!”
“You’ve seen it?” Monarch Great Development was also surprised.
“Exactly…
I remembered!
This Incantation resembles the Demon Clan’s cultivation technique inscribed on that item!” After contemplating briefly, Han Li suddenly recalled something.
Reaching into his storage pouch, he produced a palm-sized copper plate.
It was the Sacred Provenance Plate that he had long forgotten about!
Without a second word, Han Li compared it to the demonic script on the plate, scrutinizing it closely.
Moments later, he discovered that although the content of the so-called King Ming Art differed from the script on the plate, they clearly stemmed from the same lineage.
However, the King Ming Art appeared to be much simpler than the incantations on the copper plate, but there was a deceptive similarity between the two, which confused Han Li and muddled his thoughts.
“What on earth is this copper plate?” Monarch Great Development saw Han Li occasionally glancing at the jade slips, then staring pensively at the copper plate, his expression unusually strange, and couldn’t help but ask.
“Senior, please take a look.
With my limited talents, I truly cannot discern the connection.
Perhaps Senior could enlighten me.” After hesitating slightly and sighing, Han Li threw the copper plate into a bamboo tube behind him, then folded his arms and fell into thought.
“This is demonic script.
If so, this cultivation technique must be extraordinary within the Demon Clan.
Let me see…” Monarch Great Development muttered before his voice trailed off into silence, evidently starting to read the incantations on the copper plate.
This time, Monarch Great Development didn’t take long-only a quarter of an hour-before he gave Han Li a definite answer.
“I’ve finally discerned something.
Clearly, the Buddhist ‘King Ming Art’ was modified from this set of Demon Clan techniques, adapted particularly from the missing foundational parts inscribed on the copper plate,” Monarch Great Development confidently affirmed.
“So it is.
But the final part of the King Ming Art seems unable to connect properly with the techniques on the copper plate.
There must be another part missing,” Han Li concluded after some thought and lifted his head to state his opinion.
“To think, Han Li, you also noticed this.
You are correct.
The whole set of Demon Clan techniques should indeed be divided into three parts.
The King Ming Art is derived from the most basic body-refinement part.
What this copper plate records are the final incantations for exercising divine skills, missing the middle part about body transformation.
This technique is truly extraordinary, quite intriguing!
Six Arms and Three Heads!
Isn’t this similar to the Divine Skills displayed by that ancient devil?
I’ve long heard that the Demon Clan was the first to contact the Ancient Devil Realm.
It seems this is indeed true,” Monarch Great Development chuckled softly, seeming quite amused.
“In that case, these techniques were probably taught by the Demon Clan to the Demons, and then the Buddhist Sect acquired the basic parts and transformed them into the current King Ming Art.
For one set of techniques to be valued by demons, devils, and Buddhists alike shows it indeed has a remarkable origin and uniqueness.
However, no matter the power of this technique, the Five Ghosts on me might not contain the Evil Qi at any time.
I can’t worry about that now.
I have to cultivate the King Ming Art first and resolve the impending crisis,” Han Li pondered for a long time, and only sighed in resignation.
“Mm, you do have a point.
Going to search for the other techniques now might indeed be dangerous time-wise.
And while the King Ming Art might be difficult for others, with such intense Evil Qi available to you, you should presumably find it smoother to cultivate,” Monarch Great Development considered thoughtfully and agreed.
“Let’s hope so.
But it seems this set of incantations requires a Vajra Relic to cultivate.
Won’t there be a problem if I just cultivate it directly?” Han Li remembered something else and asked with hesitation.
“Vajra Relic, didn’t you just acquire one?
You’re quite fortunate, or I might not have recommended you cultivate this incantation.
Although other relics could be used as well, compared to the Vajra Relic their effects are certainly inferior.
Once your Spirit Beast absorbs the Heavenwide Corpsefire from the golden light barrier, you’ll refine the golden light barrier completely.
Then, I’ll teach you a spell to turn it into your magic treasure.
That way, there won’t be any problems.
When I traveled abroad in the past, I was quite interested in Buddha Relics and even disguised myself to join a Great Buddhist Sect for over ten years to deeply study them.
You don’t need to worry about this.
Actually, if not for cultivating the King Ming Art, cultivating other Buddhist techniques to resolve the Evil Qi would also require a relic, but finding one in a place like Great Jin where Buddhism flourishes shouldn’t be difficult,” Monarch Great Development spoke confidently, appearing to have planned this thoroughly.
“If that’s the case, then I’m relieved!
Since the incantations are truly compatible, let’s leave this place ASAP.
Ever since I entered these mountains, I’ve felt slightly uneasy, which is not a good sign.
We must find another spirit vein location for cultivation,” after painstakingly pondering in his heart, Han Li felt truly reassured about cultivating the King Ming Art and relaxed.
Then, casting one last glance at the hall to ensure nothing was overlooked, he walked toward a corner transportation formation and vanished in a flash of white light.
After the time it would take to eat a meal, Han Li transformed into an azure streak of light, flying straight towards the outside of the Snow Ridge Mountains.
As he flew, he discussed with Monarch Great Development where to find a good spirit vein location to discreetly cultivate for a while.
However, having flown several hundred miles, a sudden, earth-shattering explosion resonated from somewhere, shaking the entire mountain range with a buzzing sound, like the sky was splitting and the earth was shattering.
Unprepared for this, Han Li only felt a ringing in his ears, and his figure shook slightly, his face instantly transforming.
Casting a quick glance toward the source of the tremendous noise, Han Li’s expression darkened, he didn’t say another word but, doubled the speed of his streak of light, and suddenly shot away in the direction opposite to the noise.
But after only escaping twenty-odd miles, his Divine Sense felt a surprising surge of Spiritual Energy behind him.
Following that, a mass of gray Qi, a patch of dark clouds, and a billowing white whirlwind shot towards him from behind, breaking through the air.
Given Han Li’s current Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, their speeds were incomparably faster, and in almost the blink of an eye, they were only a few miles away from him!
