He increasingly realized that spells do not necessarily need to be overwhelmingly powerful; instead, they should be effortless, and saving lives is more important than taking them.

Thinking of this, he glanced around and said, "Old Sha, the Daoist, and I will enter the cave for cultivation. We will emerge in two days. Everyone should find shelter from the wind and snow."

This was a plan set in advance.

On the snowy mountains of West Ridge, there are also Cave Heaven Blessed Lands.

Sha Lifei awakened his Body Divine Power, and with the help of the white-robed Great Master's bracelet, he has stabilized his Storing God, enough to construct the First Layer, thereby becoming a Cultivator.

Wang Daoxuan and Lv San have both entered the Third Layer.

Unlike Li Yan's fortune, to construct the Fourth Layer, despite extraordinary talent, they would have to wait until the end of the year.

However, Wang Daoxuan had another opportunity.

He obtained the "Five-Headed Divine Technique" from Mingshanzi of the Cheng Family, passed down from the immortal "Chi Jiang Ziyu," an Ancient Qi Refining Technique.

"Chi Jiang Ziyu" is the source of spells for the West Xuan Lineage, completing the Divine Skills without needing to argue with the Shangqing Sect.

The "Five-Headed Divine Technique" has a wonderful feature; it can multitask.

When ordinary cultivators cast spells, they need concentration. Losing focus can result in spell failure or backlash, so the first hurdle for cultivators is to meditate, clearing distractions.

Once mastering the "Five-Headed Divine Technique," one can multitask, almost like having an extra head. The higher the Dao, the more spells can be simultaneously controlled.

From then on, when Wang Daoxuan set up altar practices, he would have a means of self-protection, capable of concurrently casting spells to block attackers.

But this is just a minor skill.

The true power of the "Five-Headed Divine Technique" is in cultivating a Daluo Law Realm Divine Power called "Five Heads Divine Power."

This divine power is the method of an Ancient Qi Refiner.

On ordinary days, one can breathe in and out the Innate Astra Bane Qi, store it within the chest and abdomen for nurturing. When encountering a strong enemy, one can expel it with a single breath to enhance the spells, making them more formidable.

This is considered a trump card for survival.

Of course, this divine power has two restrictions.

One is that, like Li Yan's previous Soul-hooking Thunder Rope, it requires consumption of the stored Astra Bane Qi. Once depleted, it must be replenished.

Although it can be replenished within a few days, it often lacks timing, only increasing the stored Astra Bane Qi with a high Dao and deep divine power.

The other is the necessity of Divine Astral.

Nowadays, particular circumstances make it impossible to cultivate Dharma Realm Divine Power without Divine Astral.

Among the rewards promised by the Dragon Lady, besides selecting treasures in the Dragon Palace Water Mansion, is the Divine Astral of the River God.

Unfortunately, the spiritual charm of the River God was taken by the mortal immortal Li Wenyuan, leaving only two strands of Divine Astral.

Wang Daoxuan used this Divine Astral to successfully cultivate divine power.

As for Lv San, traveling the path of the Chu Witch, is entirely different from their Taoist Mystical Sect and has no Dharma Realm Divine Power opportunity.

With the plan set, the group continued onwards.

The "Yin Yang Realm" region has more than one cultivation cave residence.

They did not travel far before rounding a ridge, revealing a crevice-like valley ahead, covered with thick snow, difficult to find if not carefully searched.

"It's right here."

The Bai Family maiden led the group into the valley.

Inside, they saw several stone caves carved into the cliff, extending several meters deep, with added wind shelter, making it an ideal resting place.

As she walked, the Bai Family maiden said, "This is also a Spiritual Vein Earth Acupoint, but pales in comparison to Sister Long's, leading Qingcheng to not bother stationing people for regular management."

"They mainly use the Cave Heaven Acupoint of Zhao Gong Mountain, and occasionally, destitute small cultivators come here to construct layers…"

The group entered and inspected the area.

Indeed, these caves were quite rudimentary, lacking doors, just some loose stones piled on the ground to block wind during closure.

Signs of fire were evident, but it had been a long time since anyone had visited. The caves' depths held stacks of firewood covered in dust.

The group lit a bonfire, instantly warming up a lot.

They roasted dry food, boiled snow with an iron pot, filling their stomachs casually before starting preparations.

Sha Lifei faced the greatest hassle, as it was his first Foundation Establishment attempt without any experience. Fortunately, he was practicing the "West Xuan Cave Nether Scripture" as well.

Wang Daoxuan personally guided him, planning to wait an extra night to protect Sha Lifei during his success before absorbing Divine Astral.

As for Li Yan, with Lv San's help, he sealed off another cave with stones and went inside for closure.

Stones were used as plug, snow mixed with slurry filled the gaps, quickly freezing hard, plunging the interior into darkness.

Due to the non-layer construction, the procedure was much simpler.

Li Yan lit eight Lotus Lamps, placing them in Eight Trigrams positions, and then took out the Hook Paper and West Queen Mother Shrine.

He picked up the Hook Paper and found there was only one strand of Divine Astral inside.

Earlier, he accepted the task to capture Long Wu. Although the opponent was slain in a battle, he was not the one who acted. Coupled with his Heavenly Official status, thus there was neither punishment nor reward.

Slaying Lu Sheng earned him a strand of Thunder Astral.

More powerful than Divine Astral, it was absorbed by the Soul-hooking Thunder Rope and could already self-generate thunder.

Thinking this, Li Yan was stirred, the Soul Hook whirled out, crackling with electricity.

While able to show Thunder Rope traces, its power paled compared to using Heavenly Thunder, akin to a high-voltage electric baton.

Seeing this, Li Yan shook his head slightly.

This strand of Thunder Astral doesn't possess significant destructive power, with a main effect like a slow trickle, requiring no Heavenly Thunder absorption, yet able to accumulate thunder.

Additionally, it can boost his Thunder Martial Arts and Duan Chen Blade power, along with the Undying Seal Technique, enhancing close combat prowess further.
