This means nothing to Gu Zhan.
Then he looked at the other three spells.
One is called Blinding Technique, one is called Fire-spitting Skill, and one is called Armor Condensation Technique.
When he saw these three spells,
Gu Zhan, recalling what Gai Qingcheng had said before, basically confirmed that this world was likely a cultivation world before martial arts.
The so-called Mahayana Divine Power Technique is basically the spells used by cultivators. Because spells are diverse and strange, many are named Mahayana Divine Power Technique but actually lack practical use.
The Gu Family’s Creation from Nothing: Withered Tree Blooming Flowers falls into the category of spells useful to ordinary people but meaningless to masters. The Sword King City’s Blinding Technique and Fire-spitting Skill are the same, merely useful against common folk and useless to true masters.
This is why Gu Zhan lacks interest in even deducing these two spells,
but he still proceeded to check them:
Spell: Blinding Technique
Grade: Initial Tier Magic
Convertible Martial Arts Grade: Profound Tier Upper Grade
...
Spell: Fire-spitting Skill
Grade: Middle Tier Magic
Convertible Martial Arts Grade: Earth Tier Middle Grade
...
Spell: Armor Condensation Technique
Grade: Initial Tier Treasure Technique
Convertible Martial Arts: Mahayana Divine Power Technique
...
It was indeed as he had speculated,
Deducing Blinding Technique into martial arts techniques only converts it to the Profound Tier Martial Arts at the same realm, while Fire-spitting Skill is slightly better, reaching the Earth Tier.
Profound and Earth Tier martial arts have no deducing value for the current Gu Zhan.
However, the final Armor Condensation Technique made Gu Zhan slightly delighted.
He indeed harbors great expectation for this spell.
Previously, in combat with Wei Wuya, Wei Wuya used this spell to condense armor with Demonic Qi, making it extremely formidable. If not for Gu Zhan’s cultivation far exceeding his, it would have posed significant trouble. In fact, since Wei Wuya was clearly at Entry Level, if he reached the Great Success level, the battle would be interesting!
Now, the level of this spell and its convertible martial arts have not disappointed Gu Zhan, surprisingly deducing a non-existent Mahayana Divine Power Technique.
According to the system’s prompt,
Gu Zhan roughly speculated the grades of the cultivation spells.
They should be divided into unranked, Initial, Middle, High Tier,
corresponding to Yellow Tier, Profound Tier, Earth Tier martial arts, and Minor Mahayana Divine Technique Method.
And above High Tier magic should be Treasure Technique, which is probably divided into Initial, Middle, High Tier as well.
And previously,
Elder Celestial Master once said, only Mahayana Divine Power Technique can kill Land Immortals within Grotto Heavens, which likely refers to Treasure Technique.
It’s just because people in this world don’t know spells have grades and since both spells and Treasure Techniques rely on Spiritual Qi, they mix them together, defining both spells and Treasure Techniques as Mahayana Divine Power Techniques.

[Treasure Technique successfully deduced into martial arts techniques]
Elephant Armor Skill: consists of nine layers; each layer grants Celestial Power of one day, Armor of one day, overwhelming strength, warding off all evil, impervious to water and fire, immune to spiritual weapons.
...
Upon reading the annotation of Elephant Armor Skill,
Gu Zhan showed a smile, feeling somewhat pleased.
The true Mahayana Divine Power Technique,
and unlike Minor Mahayana Divine Technique Method, which relies on great forces of nature, borrowing power, this Mahayana Divine Power Technique is entirely centered on one’s blood and Qi, with Divine Power as a supplement.
At this moment,
Gu Zhan suddenly felt dazed in his mind,
his Divine Sense seemed briefly halted,
the surrounding environment changed, no longer the endless void surrounded by stars like in dark nights.
He still stood before the grassy hut behind Sword King City.
Gai Qingcheng stood beside him, seeing Gu Zhan open his eyes, then hurriedly said, "Marquis, how are you, have you enlightened the Grotto Heaven Technique?"
Gu Zhan looked around, realizing night had essentially fallen, and asked, "How long has it been?"
"Almost two hours," Gai Qingcheng replied, "Your first enlightenment of Grotto Heaven Technique lasting two hours is already very impressive. According to our family Ancestor, generally people first spend around one stick of incense, then gradually comprehend, requiring months or even years to fully grasp the Grotto Heaven Technique."
Gu Zhan chuckled, "I’ve fully comprehended it, let’s go down the mountain."
Gai Qingcheng was momentarily in astonishment, then cupped her hands, praising, "Marquis, indeed unmatched by ordinary people!"
Gu Zhan smiled slightly without further words, heading down the mountain.
"By the way, Marquis," Gai Qingcheng said, "how to handle Sword King City’s Spirit Gathering Array?"
"Leave it," Gu Zhan replied, "might still be useful in the future."
Gai Qingcheng nodded, handed Wei Wuya’s notebook to Gu Zhan, saying, "Marquis, take this notebook; if it spreads to the Martial World, surely there will be a storm of blood and chaos."
Gu Zhan glanced at the notebook, saying, "With my Divine Sight Martial Arts, this thing... tasteless but regrettable to discard, besides, Wei Wuya’s methods are too difficult to replicate, requiring exceedingly high conditions."
Gu Zhan tucked the notebook into his chest, proceeding forward, while walking, he summoned the system:
[Uses 1 billion experience points]
[Elephant Armor Skill upgraded to Entry Level]
[Uses 3 billion experience points]
[Elephant Armor Skill upgraded to Minor Success Level]
[Uses 5 billion experience points]
[Elephant Armor Skill upgraded to Great Success Level]
...
In mere steps,
Gu Zhan used 900 million experience points,
directly upgrading Mahayana Divine Power Technique, Elephant Armor Skill, to Great Success Realm, gaining Nine Celestial Beasts Power, Nine Celestial Armor, his blood and Qi surging to an extreme,
At that moment,
