Chapter 50: Refocusing on Cultivation
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At the Martial Hall.
Although the Martial Hall was a hall of the Divine Will Sect, it was really only just in name.
Due to the strangeness of this place and the fact that the origins of these ruins were wholly unknown by anyone in the sect, no one in the sect had ever actually explored it in depth.
From the information that the great elder had given him, it was not difficult
for Li Ming to deduce that this place was far older than the Divine Will Sect!
But at the moment, Li Ming was not too clear on the strangeness that existed in this place.
Seeing the dilapidated courtyard, Li Ming bitterly tidied it up.
He had originally thought that he would be able have more time to rest after entering the true core area of the Divine Will Sect, but expectations were clearly not met with reality.
He had to tidy up the whole place on his own.
During the time that he was in the Martial Hall, the sect’s disciples and elders would occasionally send him some resources, but they would always leave them outside the valley.
They simply did not dare to enter the valley.
Without cultivation at the level of the great elder, entering the valley would consume a lot of spiritual qi. In serious cases, entering the valley may even cause their cultivation level to fall!
As such, Li Ming had no choice but to retrieve the resources himself.
Who asked him to be the only one in the Martial Hall?
Damn it, one day, I will bring the Martial Hall to greater heights!
Looking at the broken plaque, Li Ming did not intend to make any changes. Instead, he felt that this plaque was very interesting.
After tidying the place up for quite some time, the courtyard finally looked rather decent.
Li Ming could now focus on other things.
“I should test out the new entry that I got first.”
Until now, Li Ming had actually yet to experience the effects of the purple entry [Ravenous Feast].
“Ancient Spirit Mysterious Art!”
Li Ming activated and began circulating the magical art, trying to absorb the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.
However, in this valley, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was pitifully thin.
However, even though it was little, with the addition of the Greed Feast, the spiritual energy continued to pour in!
If they were outside, the amount of spiritual energy they could absorb would definitely be huge!
Even in such a barren place, Li Ming was able to absorb twice as much spiritual qi as he did in the past!
As expected of a purple entry!
Moreover, Li Ming also discovered that after the spiritual qi in his body was siphoned away by the mysterious force in the valley, the restoration effect that he had obtained, together with the entry, would automatically completely fill up the gaps he had lost.
In this way, Li Ming was not losing any spiritual qi to the valley.
Moreover, Li Ming also discovered that the siphoned spiritual qi was actually gathering in one place.
With the help of his entries, the uniqueness of the Ancient Spirit Magical Art, and the powerful perception of his divine soul, Li Ming should be able to sense the direction of the flow of spiritual qi.
He was especially able to sense it well when it had just left his body.
Under the perception of his divine soul, Li Ming quickly locked onto the location where the spiritual qi was gathering.
He discovered that it was in the ruins.
Li Ming followed the tracks and walked into the ruins.
Although it was a dilapidated building, there was an extreme pressure emanating from inside!
Less than ten minutes after he entered, Li Ming felt that his blood was surging, and he could not hold on any longer!
He was in the body cultivation foundation establishment realm, and the strength of his body was his specialty. Even so, he could not stay there for long!
This made Li Ming even more certain that there had to be something unusual inside the ruin.
The great elder had previously mentioned that many of the cultivation techniques and magical arts in the scripture depository of the Divine Will Sect had originated from these ruins.
This made Li Ming curious.
However, the most important thing for him right now was to rectify the situation.
Although he had already reached the body cultivation foundation establishment realm, that did not mean that he could just stop practicing the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.
In addition, his qi cultivation level was currently stable at the eleventh level of the qi refinement stage. Li Ming still wanted to reach the foundation establishment realm in qi cultivation.
This way, his weight in the sect would be a bit greater.
And he would also be able to earn more resources.
Fortunately, Li Ming was the only one in the valley, so he did not have to worry about others interfering with his cultivation, nor did he have to worry about having a place to himself where he could cultivate.
He began with stance training, the foundation of body cultivation.
He carried out all his movements smoothly as he trained.
Li Ming did not dodge even when he was drawing the heavenly fire to temper himself. He simply watched as the heavenly fire descended and allowed it to burn on his body.
The tempering of the heavenly flame would further improve Li Ming’s body!
Coupled with the restoration effect he had recently obtained, he would not feel as tired during body cultivation and would not have to worry about injuries as much.
He completely bared his arms wide open and welcomed the tempering of his body.
With the help of the [Martial Dao Prodigy] entry, the speed at which Li Mings body improved was astounding!
A few hours later.
As the meridians and bones in his entire body were reconstructed, the golden crow on his foundation establishment stone platform shone even brighter. He had reached the second level of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art!
“Phew-”
“This feels amazing!”
Li Ming stretched his muscles and bones. He had made another breakthrough in the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, leaving him feeling refreshed!
To be able to complete the breakthrough in such a short period of time was great news for Li Ming.
However, Li Ming could also feel that making further progress in the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art had become increasingly difficult.
He only needed to break through one more layer to reach the third layer, and then he would be able to possess the Golden Crow True Fire!
At the same time, his body cultivation could be considered to have stabilized at the intermediate stage of the foundation establishment realm!
Next, it was time to focus on qi cultivation.
After doing well in the inner sect grand competition, the great elder had arranged for him to stay in such a strange place, and the sect had sent him a lot of resources.
These resources were mostly in the form of various pills and various magical arts that corresponded to qi cultivation. Now that he was focusing on his qi cultivation, he could make use of the resources that the sect had given him
In terms of magical arts. Li Ming verv decisivelv chose the Cauldron
Transformation Art!
Li Ming had been very fascinated by this magical art when he saw Chen Qingke use it.
This kind of technique was indeed rather eye-catching.
It was also very suitable for him as a body cultivator.
Urging the Ancient Spirit Magical Art, Li Ming relied on [Ravenous Feast], together with the help of a pill to wantonly absorb spirtiual qi from the surroundings!
With the enhancement of the pill, the spiritual qi around him instantly turned violent!
The Ancient Spirit Magical Art was a very unique qi cultivation technique that absorbed spiritual qi through all parts of the body. But luckily for Li Ming, since he was mainly a body cultivator and had a strong body, even if the spiritual qi that he was absorbing was violent, it would barely affect him if at all
After all, compared to the power of the heavenly fire, the damage that the violent spiritual qi could do to him was much weaker.
As such, Li Ming was pretty much completely able to withstand the violent spiritual qi that entered his body from all directions.
As the spiritual qi surged, Li Ming soon felt the loosening of his qi cultivation!
He immediately increased his focus as he wantonly stuffed pills into his mouth in a rush to break through!
If it was any other qi refinement stage cultivator, they would not be able to withstand the consumption of so many pills over such a short period of time!
If a large amount of spiritual qi were to have entered the body of an ordinary qi refinement stage cultivator, their body would have likely been unable to withstand the immense pressure and imploded!
This was where the benefits of body refinement came into play once again.
In this aspect, Li Ming clearly had a decisive advantage.
Even when absorbing such large amounts of spiritual qi in such a short period of time, his body was able to manage!
The excess spiritual qi could then be absorbed by his body cultivation foundation establishment stone platform and further its advancements.
“Here it comes!”
Suddenly.
Spiritual qi erupted from Li Ming’s body, and a blue light shone around him. Then, the light quickly converged!
He had made another breakthrough in the qi refinement stage!
He had now reached the twelfth level of the qi refinement stage!
He now only needed to consolidate his current level of qi cultivation before he could begin working towards the foundation establishment realm!
Although he had experience from his body cultivation foundation establishment before, the way by which one reached the foundation establishment realm through body cultivation and qi cultivation were completely different.
When working toward the foundation establishment realm for body cultivation, the focus was to break through the shackles of one’s physical body. The cultivator had to develop their flesh, blood, bones, meridians, and internal organs, and establish their foundation in their dantian.
Every step of the way to the foundation establishment realm in body cultivation was life-threatening! This was why cultivators had ended up shying away from cultivating their bodies, simply because of the sheer danger that it would have them undergo!
Currently, Li Ming actually had utterly no idea how to reach the foundation establishment realm in qi cultivation.
After all, this entire time, he had never really paid any attention to how the process went.
He was lacking in both experience and knowledge.
“It looks like I’ll have to learn from junior sister.”
After reaching the peak of the qi refinement stage, Li Ming began to consider his future steps.
He felt that it would be much better if he reached the qi cultivation foundation establishment realm sooner.
And so, after reaching the twelfth level of the qi refinement stage, Li Ming did not stop with qi cultivation.
With his empowered recovery and his physical body at the foundation establishment realm, he did not feel any fatigue at all.
He thus decided to learn the Cauldron Transformation Art!
The Cauldron Transformation Art! This magical art would have the cultivator use their own spiritual qi to gather the surrounding spiritual qi of heaven and earth, and then condense a giant bronze cauldron, thereby allowing them to unleash astonishing power!
While this might sound quite simple and straightforward, it was actually quite a complex and technically-demanding technique to carry out.
The requirements that this magical art in the cultivator’s level of control over spiritual qi was extremely high!
There were many disciples in the Divine Will Sect who had cultivated the Cauldron Transformation Art. After all, this was a jack-of-all-trades type of skill.
In addition, with the technique allowing its user to wield considerable power, many people naturally studied and learned it.
However, the bronze cauldrons that most disciples managed to condense were usually very blurry. Many times, they were only able to even condense an outline of a cauldron!
Although condensing such an outline would give them a boost in power, it was not by much.
The strength that the Cauldron Transformation Art would be able to display was heavily determined by the cauldron that was condensed by the cultivator.
If it was clear, solid, and even had patterns on it, that meant that the cultivator had achieved major success in the technique!
Li Ming raised one hand and unleashed spiritual qi outward from within his body in a controlled manner. Then, he tried to gather the surrounding spiritual qi of heaven and earth over to him.
While he was doing so, Li Ming was pleasantly surprised to find that the entry [Ravenous Feast] could be activated at this time.
With that being the case, he naturally decided to activate it. Instantly, a huge amount of heaven and earth spiritual qi gathered at his hand!
This scene greatly surprised Li Ming.
He did not dare to be careless. Using his powerful divine soul, he began to control the condensation of spiritual qi according to the method depicted in the Cauldron Transformation Art.
Although the process was quite slow, Li Ming did not lack patience and time!
Three years of pure body tempering was boring, but he still managed to persevere!
This meager amount of time was naturally bearable..
