242: The Art of Infant Conception

By utilizing special methods, one could refine this Nascent Soul into one's own Clone.

Then, when the Clone returns to the main body.

One could possess Nascent Soul Stage combat power for a short period.

The difficulty of this method lies in how to obtain a Nascent Soul?

And one must be able to control this Nascent Soul!

And be able to erase its Divine Sense!

This is only the first method!

The second method is to upgrade a ten thousand souls banner.

Then collect a large number of Cultivator souls.

Preferably Golden Core Stage souls, or Foundation Establishment Stage souls would also suffice.

This way, let them devour each other within the ten thousand souls banner.

Until one side ascends to become a Ghost King.

Thus, the Ghost King would have Nascent Soul Stage combat power.

However, the drawbacks are also very obvious; although one can upgrade to a ten thousand souls banner.

But this act of mutual devouring and mutual promotion requires a massive amount of Foundation Establishment Stage souls.

Or a large number of Golden Core Stage souls.

Gu Changan did not know if a few hundred Golden Core Stage Ghost Generals would be enough?

But at least thousands or tens of thousands would be needed to possibly give birth to a Ghost King.

The difficulty of this is imaginable.

Does one have to slaughter their way through the entire Cultivation World?

How many Golden Core Stage souls would that require collecting?

Furthermore, even if one successfully raised a Nascent Soul Stage Ghost King through the Gu-raising method.

How would one control it?

Without special means, it would be impossible to control.

Don't say that just controlling the ten thousand souls banner is enough.

Think about a mouse pulling a shovel; it is simply unusable, alright!

The situation is roughly the same!

Therefore, such a thing is likely a one-time method.

Just release the Ghost King and let it cause destruction on its own.

Going through all that effort just to get a one-time method?

This is clearly unrealistic!

As for the third method, it would be encountering a legendary elder?

The kind of "accompanying elder"?

Possessing a Nascent Soul Stage Divine Soul?

Or a Nascent Soul Stage Nascent Soul!

This kind of elder uses his power to possess one's body, allowing the body to possess short-term Nascent Soul Stage combat power.

The result of this is self-evident!

Either one is subjected to Possession by this elder, and from then on, one dies and the Dao vanishes.

Or, how could there be such a good thing?

Why would someone help you without asking for anything in return?

Forcibly fighting using one's own Divine Soul or Nascent Soul?

Even if they finished using your body and relinquished control.

Could your body still withstand Nascent Soul Stage combat power?

Perhaps after a few moves, one's body would shatter into pieces.

The difficulty of this method lies in where to find an "accompanying elder"?

And besides, if someone uses your body, why would they return it to you?

As for the fourth method, it is a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet.

Like in some novels, where the Sect is an ancient Puppet Sect.

And there is a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet passed down to the present, handed over to the protagonist to control.

This method is currently feasible.

But where can one find a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet?

One hasn't even heard of a Puppet Sect anywhere?

However, since one possesses a large number of Golden Core Stage corpses, could one craft them?

It seems one must find such a crafting method in the future and pursue multiple approaches.

The last method is to utilize a Great Formation, gathering the power of the Great Formation to allow oneself to possess short-term Nascent Soul Stage combat power.

However, this level of Great Formation is generally the Sect-protecting Great Formation of major forces.

Where would one have the channels to obtain it?

Even if one had the channels to obtain it, how to set up the formation?

Where to set it up?

This would certainly require choosing a Spiritual Vein, but all known Spiritual Veins are controlled by major forces.

Where would one conjure up a Spiritual Vein?

Furthermore, one doesn't know how to set up a formation!

It cannot be learned in a short time.

So, after this analysis, the path of a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet is likely feasible.

Gu Changan then thought that he seemed to possess a Cultivation Technique for Refined Corpse in the past.

Then, taking it to upgrade, perhaps one could find a method to refine a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet.

A Nascent Soul Stage Refined Corpse would also work!

Remembering that back when he was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he already possessed Golden Core Stage Divine Sense.

Then, now that he is at the Golden Core Stage, could he possess Nascent Soul Stage Divine Sense?

If one possessed Nascent Soul Stage Divine Sense, wouldn't that mean one possessed Nascent Soul Stage combat power?

Gu Changan unconsciously thought of another method.

Then he laughed happily.

It seems that building a Sect is not the only method; all roads lead to Rome.

However, a Sect still needs to be built, after all, one must use them to gather information.

Even if one possessed Nascent Soul Stage combat power, where would one go to rob things? One must definitely have a target first!

Therefore, the path of building a Sect is definitely unavoidable.

Gu Changan understood the key to the problem, and his heart immediately felt much more at ease.

He began to search in the treasure gathering basin for previously upgraded Refined Corpse Cultivation Techniques and Divine Sense Cultivation Techniques.

To see if there was any possibility of upgrading them further.

The first thing he found was "Corpse Refining Art", which he threw into the treasure gathering basin, utilizing green Treasure Qi to upgrade it.

A light flashed, and a Jade Slip appeared.

"Evil Infant Incubation Technique": The introduction stated that it actually required a Nascent Soul Stage corpse.

Then, after conversion through a Secret Technique, utilizing one's own Lifespan or a large amount of essence blood as resources.

Then split a sliver of one's own Divine Soul as a seed and plant it into the Nascent Soul Stage corpse.

Then, after a long period of cultivation.

The Nascent Soul Stage corpse would then give birth to a new Nascent Soul.

Because it was originally nourished by one's own Divine Soul.

Therefore, one would be able to control this Nascent Soul Stage corpse, thereby achieving Nascent Soul Stage combat power.

This is also the origin of this Cultivation Technique, "Evil Infant Incubation Technique".

However, a new problem was placed before him: where could he get a Nascent Soul Stage corpse?

Should he go dig up someone's ancestral grave?

Or find a Nascent Soul Stage Immortal Cave, wondering if those withered corpses would be of any use?

What if he forcefully used essence blood to nourish it?

Perhaps there might be a sliver of possibility that it would succeed!

However, should he split his Divine Soul?

It is said that damage to the Divine Soul will affect future advancement.

Gu Changan was also struggling with this, but the collection of Nascent Soul Stage corpses had to be added to his plan.

He then began to search for Divine Soul-related Cultivation Techniques.

The Cultivation Techniques he practiced included "Purple Sun Soul Refining Art" and "Nine Heavens Divine Soul Art".

"Purple Sun Soul Refining Art" was used to train his own Divine Soul!

"Nine Heavens Divine Soul Art" was used to devour others' Divine Souls!

"Netherworld Ghost Claw" was a Divine Soul attack method.

With his cultivation reaching the Golden Core Stage, "Netherworld Ghost Claw" could be phased out.

There were many kinds of Divine Soul attack methods!

One could condense one at will, without needing to specifically condense it into the shape of a Ghost Claw.

Furthermore, "Purple Sun Soul Refining Art" could also be abandoned.

Where would he have the specific time to train his Divine Soul?

Isn't devouring directly faster and better?

After all, how could righteous cultivation be as fast as evil cultivation?

In any case, he used the Spirit Treasure thousand soul banner to execute "Nine Heavens Divine Soul Art".

He didn't need to worry about the problem of remnant souls at all.

Even if there were some remnant souls or chaotic memories and emotions!

Xiao Hei would help him take care of it.
