"These houses are equipped with defensive formations. Each of you should choose a place to cultivate. Within this secret realm, fighting is prohibited, and you must not disturb others."
Additionally, inside the cave ahead, there are trials left by the patriarch. First-time visitors can try them, but the spiritual energy is isolated inside, so you can't improve your cultivation level there.
The secret realm offers a three-day visit; it's a rare opportunity, so we must cherish our time..."
After the two Foundation Establishment deacons finished speaking, they left. They had other matters to attend to, namely, gathering mature spiritual herbs.
There's also the even more important Foundation Establishment Fruit, which is available only once a year. Countless people are waiting for this elixir to establish their foundation.
While it's possible to achieve Foundation Establishment without Foundation Establishment Pills, the price of failure might be permanently losing the chance to achieve Foundation Establishment again...
This is the greatest benefit of being a disciple of a sect.
After the two deacons left, the dozen or so disciples who had left the mountain unhesitatingly chose a thatched hut to begin their seclusion.
Three days to earn 100,000 contribution points, every minute and second is worth spirit stones.
Most of the senior disciples made the same choice.
Besides Ye Feng and his two companions, Liao Wen's group of five remained where they were.
"Hey, you over there, [Senior Brother], aren't you going to check out the cave dwelling left by the Ancestral Master? With your talent, you're sure you can pass the Ancestral Master's test, right?"
Ye Feng didn't even bother with him. The inner sect had strict rules; aside from the division platform, there was no possibility of fighting anywhere else.
It's just a little noisy, you can just ignore it.
"I'm going to check on the Patriarch's test. What about you two?"
"We'll go with our senior brother!"
The two of them chose to go with Ye Feng without hesitation.
The three of them headed straight for the cave dwelling not far away.
Seeing that Ye Feng ignored him, Liao Wen pursed his lips, greeted the others around him, and walked over there as well.
His face was filled with a look of absolute determination.
Last time I wasn't far from the second level, but this time, with the Awakening Pill given by my great-grandfather, plus the Divine Jade Pendant of the Spiritual Artifact level I was wearing,
Comprehending the second level of the Elemental Technique should be no problem at all.
Maybe even the third floor...
Once you comprehend it, the level will reward you with related cultivation techniques and sect-specific spells.
Save the contribution points needed for exchanging them, and then save some time to break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining.
It's definitely worth it!
This Ye Feng is truly arrogant and ignorant. Everyone thinks they're a chosen one just because it's their first time here.
It's the same for my first time; three days were wasted like this, and it'll be too late to regret it then...
Upon entering the cave, one passes through a passageway more than ten meters long.
Inside was a stone chamber, over ten meters high and about a hundred square meters in size.
Below, fifteen large gates are arranged in a row. Simply reach up and channel your magic power to open the stone gates, allowing you to enter and undergo the trials.
Just as Ye Feng and his two companions were about to enter, Liao Wen and his group of five also walked in.
"Ye Feng, shall we have a match?"
A competition? Competitions usually come with prizes.
Ye Feng stopped in his tracks, but then frowned.
"How do you want to compete? Who can memorize the Lieyuan Technique?"
"this...."
Liao Wen was speechless.
The Rank Element Technique was merely a test set up by the founder; it had no practical use whatsoever.
Moreover, this technique is quite peculiar; once you leave the stone gate, you will gradually forget it, and the more you try to remember it, the faster you forget it.
To this day, the sect's records of the Lieyuan Technique are incomplete, not even covering the first level.
How could he possibly compare to the countless geniuses of the past two thousand years...?
Let's see who comes out last!
Ye Feng gave him a look that said he was an idiot.
"boring!"
After saying that, he reached out and opened the stone door, then went inside.
Behind the stone gate was another stone chamber.
After Ye Feng entered, the smooth stone wall lit up, revealing golden characters.
"The Art of Ranks!"
"Cleanse your mind and guard your spirit, follow the principles of Yin and Yang, possess the divine essence, refine your vital energy and unite your body..."
This is the first level of mental cultivation method.
Actually, Ye Feng was also a little apprehensive. Although the Lieyuan Technique was called a spell, it was actually divided into several layers.
The various levels of cultivation techniques all require independent comprehension.
Even if Ye Feng obtained a Foundation Establishment technique, he still needed to comprehend the basics on his own before he could directly improve through his cheat-like abilities.
'If I can't improve directly, then let's try my talent first!'
There are three days, so there's no rush. If it's confirmed that the cheat code can be used to improve things, then it will be a simple matter.
Five minutes later,
'Huh? How come it's so easy?'
Looking at the magical power flowing through his body along the Lieyuan Technique, Ye Feng was somewhat bewildered.
According to Qinghe, it took her nearly three hours to comprehend the first level.
It would take me at least half an hour to do that myself...
Am I that amazing? How come I didn't know...?
As Ye Feng circulated his internal energy, the image of the Lieyuan Technique on the wall disappeared, replaced by the first ten levels of the Qingyun Qi Refining Technique.
Both texts displayed the same way, but Ye Feng just had a feeling...
This character is different...
The incantations of the Lieyuan Technique, every single word and phrase, will fade from memory after you've read them.
You can only remember it after you've practiced it. Then you have to read the next section and memorize it again until you successfully complete the first level and your magical power begins to circulate. Only then can you fully remember the entire technique.
But now, with the Azure Cloud Qi Refining Technique, a single sweep of the Foundation Establishment stage divine sense imprinted the entire scene in his mind.
However, these were all things Ye Feng had already learned.
The Azure Cloud Qi Refining Technique, from levels one to ten, only produces slightly more mana and has a slightly faster recovery speed compared to other cultivation methods.
Ultimately, it doesn't actually have much of an advantage.
However, cultivation techniques above the Foundation Establishment stage are different; not only do they grant more mana and recovery, but they also include unique special moves...
Ye Feng's face lit up with excitement, but he quickly calmed down.
The second level of the cultivation method has already been displayed on the stone wall. I will soon have my own cultivation technique. Let's continue!
Thirty minutes later, Ye Feng opened his eyes again.
'It's not that difficult, is it? Qinghe spent over thirty hours on the first level. Theoretically, the second level should also take her an hour, so how come it only took half an hour...?'
However, now was not the time to dwell on it. Ye Feng's gaze was immediately drawn to the cultivation technique displayed on the wall.
This is the very foundation of the Qingyun Sect! The most crucial and essential technique!
If a spy gets here...
However, aside from the oath he had sworn to himself, he could never betray the kindness and grace of his master in transmitting the Dharma.
As for dedicated spies, of course, there's no need to consider favors or anything like that.
However... it's very difficult to understand the Heart-Questioning Array.
Ye Feng instantly memorized the techniques from level one to level ten.
The magical power within his body also began to surge.
Previously, each of the spiritual acupoints in my body contained four hundred drops of magical power, representing the fourth level of Qi Refining.
But now... it's still four hundred drops of mana,
The difference is that the space for storing mana has increased to 800 points!
double!
There is a spirit-isolating array inside the level, so you can't absorb spiritual energy. However, as long as you leave here and go outside, the empty spaces in your acupoints will be filled immediately!
"Azure Lotus Sword Song!"
No wonder the sect couldn't find a healing spell; the spells carried by the cultivation technique are the best healing spells.
The technique Master Uncle Bamboo Sword must have been the Azure Lotus Technique.
Qinglian focuses on defense, while Jian Ge focuses on offense!
When practiced to its peak, one can even fully execute the Azure Lotus Sword Song...
The technique is directly inherited from the previous Qi cultivation method and can be understood directly.
But magic requires initial training, and now is not the time.
The third level of the Rank Yuan Technique has begun to appear on the stone wall, a technique that Qinghe hadn't been able to comprehend even after the three-day trial ended...
