Chapter 14

Ninety-nine percent of the cultivators in the cultivation world are in the Qi Refining stage, so cultivators are accustomed to dividing the Qi Refining stage very finely, into one to nine layers, and the subsequent realms are the three small levels of early, middle, and late.

The Profound Heaven Sect is different. The Qi Refining stage is just an entry threshold for Profound Heaven Sect disciples. Why divide the threshold into levels?

The Profound Heaven Sect only has the Qi Refining stage, and there is no division of small levels.

"Are others like this to introduce Qi into the body?"

Lu Yang was curious. If everyone cultivated like this, why was his progress the slowest?

Yun Zhi shook her head: "This is the initial cultivation method of the ancient ancestors. The ancient ancestors sensed nature, heaven and man as one, introduced spiritual energy into themselves, and leaped to become practitioners."

The initial cultivation naturally didn't need the guidance of seniors, and there was no such thing as techniques and secret manuals. All there was was constant perception and trial and error with the body.

"As for the meridians, when soaking in the medicinal bath, your meridians have been completely opened, and spiritual energy is unobstructed. In your state of heaven and man as one, spiritual energy runs in your body according to your feelings. The running route at this time is the most suitable for you, winning over any level of techniques."

The cultivation world likes to divide techniques into five levels: yellow, mysterious, earth, heaven, and immortal. However, there are only two kinds of techniques here—those that suit you and those that don't.

"Any technique is not specifically designed for you to cultivate when it is created. There are many techniques suitable for Sword spiritual roots, and I have a box of them, but none of them suit you."

"From today on, I will give you a long-term task: create your own technique."

The technique that Yun Zhi said to create by herself is naturally not letting Lu Yang explore alone. She will also guide him on the side, but even so, the difficulty can be imagined.

Creating techniques is something that only the elders of the cultivation world can do.

Lu Yang's mouth twitched: "The seniors who created techniques stood so high, they had a bird's-eye view of every realm and knew it well, so they had the qualifications to create techniques. A junior like me who just introduced Qi into the body creates techniques, which is too..."

Yun Zhi interrupted Lu Yang's complaint: "Creating techniques is not as difficult as you think."

"Do you know that the Profound Heaven Sect has a rule that after the Foundation Establishment stage, every disciple needs to complete the tasks issued by the Task Hall to fulfill the responsibilities of the righteous path?"

Lu Yang nodded. He had heard of it.

Other sects also have similar mechanisms, requiring disciples to complete tasks. After all, the sect doesn't raise idlers, and making contributions to the sect can reflect your value.

But the five great immortal sects are different. They require disciples to issue tasks, not to make contributions to the sect, but to make contributions to the righteous path.

The five great immortal sects leading the righteous path is not an empty talk.

"General tasks require going down the mountain, killing demons and demons, driving away ghosts and transcending, etc. I don't like the atmosphere of the red dust, so I chose another way to complete the task."

"What is it?"

"The Task Hall has a fixed task: back up a technique not recorded in the Profound Heaven Sect, which also counts as completing the task."

"Then Senior Sister, you..." Lu Yang had a bold idea that he felt was absurd.

"So in order to deal with... completing the task, I created many techniques myself, and then lied to them that I found them in the ruins and caves."

"Unfortunately, it was discovered later."

"How was it discovered?" Lu Yang asked.

"Because according to the tasks I reported, I walked through the ruins and caves, and I didn't know which ruins and caves to compile next time."

"So you see, creating techniques is not difficult."

Yun Zhi appeared to speak with facts, reasonable and well-founded, making people convinced.

Lu Yang opened his mouth, wanting to say "Senior Sister, I thought you were an honest person, I didn't expect you to lie," "Senior Sister, you are intelligent, not comparable to us mortals," "Putting it in your place is called creating techniques, putting it in my place is called compiling techniques."

Lu Yang met Yun Zhi's cold eyes, and thousands of words turned into one sentence.

"Senior Sister is right."

"Although you have become a practitioner, you are still far from being a qualified sword cultivator. Take this book."

Senior Sister handed over an ancient book, made of the skin of an unknown demon beast, big, thick, and heavy.

"Demon Domain Observations?" Lu Yang opened the ancient book, and the murderous aura came to his face. Various demon beast images were vivid on the paper, and he could vaguely hear the demon beasts roaring in his ears.

This ancient book is absolutely priceless!

Lu Yang was thoughtful. Sword cultivators need sword intent. He just refined Qi, how to cultivate sword intent?

He heard that ancient sword cultivators realized the first sword intent in the life-and-death struggle with demon beasts, in the life-and-death survival, and in the face of the fierce intent of demon beasts.

Then the answer is very obvious. He needs to contemplate the image of demon beasts, realize the fierce intent of demon beasts, take its essence and remove its dross, condense ten thousand kinds of demon beasts into one point, and realize his own sword intent.

Although this method is difficult, it is just suitable for him, a Sword spiritual root.

It can also be seen that Senior Sister has high expectations for him.

"I understand everything." Lu Yang nodded, understanding Senior Sister's meaning.

Yun Zhi glanced at Lu Yang, not knowing what he understood. Yun Zhi waved her hand, and the puppet pulled another cart of tofu.

"It's good that you understand."

"To become a sword cultivator, you need a 'precision' word. Take this Qingfeng sword. What you need to do next is to use the sword tip to carve tofu into the shape of a demon beast. The appearance of the demon beast is in the book."

Yun Zhi took a sharp sword emitting cold light from the storage space, with the words "Qingfeng" engraved on the hilt.

Lu Yang: "..."

Tofu again?

Could it be that what he had that night was not a nightmare, but a precognitive dream, suggesting that his future Dao name is Tofu Heavenly Venerable?

Damn, can't have this idea.

Lu Yang hurriedly drove this terrible idea out of his brain.

He took the Qingfeng sword, and the first feeling was that it was a light sword.

In fact, it was not that the Qingfeng sword was too light. In fact, the opposite was true. The Qingfeng sword was not suitable for cultivators in the first three layers of Qi Refining at all. The sharp sword was too heavy, and the cultivators couldn't lift it at all.

Lu Yang was different. He had undergone vat-lifting training, and his strength was so great that even he himself had no concept. It could be said without hesitation that he didn't need any skills now. He could throw a punch normally and beat a cultivator in the first three layers of Qi Refining to a cold chill.

Perhaps stepping into the Qi Refining stage, his sword talent gradually appeared, plus he had practiced the control power of lifting the light as if it were heavy, Lu Yang used the Qingfeng sword with ease.

It was only more than ten days, and Lu Yang was able to carve demon beast shapes with tofu, as well as carve the shapes of him and Senior Sister, and even the nine mountains in the shape of a lotus in the Profound Heaven Sect could be carved.

Following the folk artist, Lu Yang learned new skills and could also show his skills in the back kitchen.

He couldn't help but speed up. He really couldn't eat tofu anymore.

After Lu Yang completed this stage, Senior Sister appeared, encouraged him, and took out a white sesame seed.

"Sword cultivators also need to exercise their eyesight. Now I will throw this sesame seed into the tofu dregs. You have to find this sesame seed in the shortest time."

Lu Yang knelt on the ground with a splash: "Senior Sister, change the way!"

Senior Sister looked at Lu Yang who was begging for mercy quietly, her eyes calm.

"Oh."
