Chapter 393 Mechanical
```
Time flew by, and the weather grew increasingly hot.
On the eastern side of Sunrise Mountain, the mountain breeze swept through the forest, rustling the leaves.
A thin line of red light, like an arrow, spiraled through the dense forest, shuttling swiftly like lightning.
In a moment, the red light abruptly accelerated and crashed straight into a large grayish-white boulder protruding from the ground.
With a soft 'pfft' sound, the stone, as if solidified fat meeting a hot knife, was effortlessly pierced through by the red light.
Then the red light agilely changed direction and disappeared into the dense forest in the blink of an eye.
Under the eaves, in front of the porch, Chen Mu lay in a rocking chair, eyes slightly squinted.
His eyeballs moved left and right, but his attention was not on what was before him.
After a while, a flash of red light appeared before him, and a vermilion flying blade, light as a feather, materialized, hovering in mid-air in front of Chen Mu.
He reached out to pluck it, holding it before his eyes with a joyful expression, turning it over in his hands.
"What a good flying sword!"
Thinking back to the moment it flew at breakneck speed, piercing the clouds and cleaving the stone, Chen Mu couldn't help but feel excited.
It had been a month since he arrived at Jilong Mountain.
After getting over the initial unfamiliarity, it took him only three days to adapt quickly. Hiding in the small building, he engaged in alchemy and practiced secret techniques, gradually returning to his previous pace of life.
During his leisure time, he took out the Vermilion Feather Sword that he had refined over time and played with it. With just one attempt, he fell in love with the feeling of manipulating the flying sword.
The Vermilion Feather Sword inherently possessed the ability for armor-breaking flight, traveling at extreme speed.
What was even more marvelous was that the Mechanical Technique allowed him to have a vision and sensory experience as though he were right there.
Combining the two, every time he controlled the flying sword, it was as if he himself was taking a swift flying escape!
And he had no fear of crashing or smashing his face because everything that was struck by the Vermilion Feather Sword was pierced through!
"The Vermilion Feather Sword is sufficiently sharp and unstoppable."
"The Mechanical Secret Technique is wondrous, allowing for long-distance manipulation of the flying sword."
"The flying swords and darting pellets of the legendary immortals from my past life, capable of decapitating someone thousands of miles away, were probably like this, right?"
Chen Mu chuckled inwardly as he examined his Jade Seed.
He pulled a clump of True Meaning Talismans before his eyes.
The talisman was enveloped by dark green mist on the outside, while the inside resembled an irregular black stone.
The stone was covered with tiny holes, with thick green mist quietly flowing through them.
This was the true form of the Mechanical Secret Technique's True Meaning Talisman.
"It's definitely useful, although it looks a bit eerie."
Thinking about the consistently strange style of the Wu Mountain siblings' secret techniques, Chen Mu found it perfectly reasonable.
"No harm in having one more technique, especially since it's useful," Chen Mu shrugged, unconcerned.
The Mechanical Secret Technique was similar to the Green Flowerhorn Mother-Child Spell.
During the initial construction of the core talisman of the Mechanical Secret Technique, it autonomously split off a Talisman Spirit Seed.@@@@
After infusing the spirit seed into the magic sword, one could use the core of the Mechanical Technique to connect the spirit seed, bridging the gap between the ethereal and the material realms, allowing for the transmission of mana without regard to distance, achieving long-range control of the magic sword.
...
The middle-aged man in black spoke eloquently.
The listeners in the surrounding bamboo corridors, whether seated or standing, were utterly engrossed.
Chen Mu, leaning against a column of the corridor, also listened with great interest.
Previously, he had followed the steps methodically, immersed in cultivation; it was also his first time hearing someone systematically explain the path of cultivation.
"Join the Jade Seed, gather the Gathering Talisman, condense the Soul Orifice, refine the River Chariot, establish the Daoist Foundation. This is our Yunzhou Daoist path for cultivating Qi."
"Those who cultivate the Heavenly Demon Technique of the heretical paths are at risk of losing control and suffering backlash. To eliminate such calamities, they must endure the strikes of thunder."
"Our Qi cultivation orthodoxy is different, step by step, each with a clear path to follow."
"With someone's guidance and diligent study and practice, one can progress systematically."
"Like our Sect Master Dong Li, he is a Dao Foundation Cultivator."
"The Sect Master himself first annihilated Zhongshan Path's White Tower, then killed Li Xin of the parting sun. His might is unmatched, and his strength is formidable!"
"If everyone diligently cultivates, a day will come when they can also succeed."
This black-robed Scripture Doctorate was extremely articulate, and with just a few words, had painted a sweet picture for everyone, making their blood boil with enthusiasm.
Chen Mu also couldn't help but feel impassioned.
"If one day I achieve a Daoist Foundation, I will surely take over an entire painted barge brothel."
"Let those plump and slim beauties take their turn, hmm hmm..."
"I'll listen to the music all night long!"
As he indulged in his wild fantasies, a voice interrupted his daydreaming.
"Senior Brother, what comes after achieving a Daoist Foundation?"
The middle-aged man in black cast a nonchalant glance at him, "Above a Daoist Foundation? I suggest everyone get a good night's sleep. Dreams have it all."
The crowd burst into laughter.
Chen Mu couldn't help scratching his head.
He hadn't even managed to refine his Divine Orifice yet, let alone knowing when he would establish a Daoist Foundation.
He was getting ahead of himself.
"I've practiced Qi cultivation for thirty years, and my Condensing Orifice phase is more than half complete, providing me with rich experience."
"I know which Hour yields the highest efficiency in cultivation, which Elixirs are effective and affordable, and which methods can aid cultivation without side effects."
"All these bits of information and techniques come from my many years of personal practice."
"If you want to know more, it will only cost nine hundred and ninety-nine White Jade Coins..."
Watching the crowd getting excited by the Scripture Doctorate's pitch, Chen Mu couldn't help but roll his eyes.
He experienced a sense of déjà vu, as if he were seeing the sales pitches of online courses from his previous life.
Chen Mu slipped away against the crowd, quietly leaving.
It wasn't that he didn't want to buy; he simply couldn't afford it.
The Kui Water Yin Thunder and Condense Aperture Secret Method had drained his finances. His White Jade savings of over forty thousand were now reduced to just over two thousand.
He had lived comfortably for several years, only to be brought back to his former plight overnight.
Desiring to cultivate immortality, first he must earn money.
