Li Qinghai returned to his room and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Closing his eyes, he began to circulate the Five Element Longevity Scroll.
After a whole day of running around and just finishing a frenzy of hoeing and planting, Li Qinghai was naturally exhausted.
For ordinary people, the way to relieve fatigue is to sleep.
But as a cultivator, Li Qinghai naturally chose to cultivate.
The spiritual energy in his dantian flowed throughout his body following the secret technique.
Bit by bit, the spiritual energy nourished his physical body, gradually dispelling all his fatigue.
After a stick of incense, Li Qinghai opened his eyes.
Now, he felt rejuvenated, his entire body brimming with vitality.
Time waits for no one, so he immediately took out the Azure Cloud Sword Technique from his storage bag.
He opened the manual and began to read and study it.
"One of the sword techniques of the Azure Cloud Sword Technique, the Sword Drawing Technique?"
"The second sword technique, the Trapping Sword Technique?"
"The third sword technique, the Splitting Sword Technique?"
After reading a few pages, Li Qinghai couldn't help but purse his lips.
"As expected, it's the common sword technique of the Azure Cloud Sect, a basic skill that gathers dust in the Library Pavilion, with no one choosing it."
"The names are really plain and unadorned."
"Just by looking at the names, you can tell this technique isn't very powerful."
"Those earth-shattering techniques have really cool names."
"Like 'One Sword Opens the Heavens' or 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect,' those are the strong ones."
Li Qinghai couldn't help but complain about the sword techniques in the Azure Cloud Sword Technique.
But complaints aside, this was the only manual he had with offensive techniques, so he had to learn it.
However, after delving into it for a moment, Li Qinghai's view of the technique changed.
Based on his reading, Li Qinghai summarized a few characteristics of the Azure Cloud Sword Technique.
This sword technique had six forms.
The first five forms each required a different spiritual root to learn.
As for the sixth form, it could only be performed after mastering the first five forms.
This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.
Moreover, cultivating this sword technique was unrelated to one's realm; any level of cultivation could learn it.
But the way sword techniques were performed and their power varied with different cultivation realms.
Take the Sword Drawing Technique, for example.
If Li Qinghai performed it with Qi Refining cultivation, drawing the sword would be like a green ox charging!
If he performed it with Foundation Establishment cultivation, drawing the sword would be like a flood dragon emerging from the sea!
The potential of the Sword Drawing Technique could even be cultivated to the Elemental Infant Realm.
Li Qinghai was a bit confused.
Given the potential of this manual and the difficulty of cultivation, it didn't seem like some insignificant common sword technique.
Indeed, the Elder did not deceive me.
It is truly powerful!
Li Qinghai no longer dwelled on the issue and continued to study.
As the saying goes, "Greed leads to biting off more than you can chew," and this technique was quite intricate.
So Li Qinghai decided to focus on mastering the Sword Drawing Technique.
Before practicing the Sword Drawing Technique, one must first draw the sword.
Developing a rapport with the sword.
This was a clumsy method, with no shortcuts.
Li Qinghai took a spiritual sword from his storage bag.
He had some impression of this spiritual sword.
It was given to him by a cultivator in the Monster Beast Mountain Range.
If he remembered correctly, it was called the Spiritual Water Sword, a low-grade magic artifact.
Despite its low grade, it was sufficient for practicing the Sword Drawing Technique, and Li Qinghai didn't mind.
Li Qinghai got up from the bed and began to draw the sword.
Draw the sword from its sheath!
Return it to the sheath!
Draw the sword again!
He practiced repeatedly.
While Li Qinghai was drawing the sword, he didn't notice a few uninvited guests outside the Green Bamboo Residence.
If he had noticed, he would have recognized these three people.
They were Ye Feng, Ye Kaishan, and Ye Chongshan.
Ye Chongshan glanced at the protective barrier of the Green Bamboo Residence and was a bit surprised.
"When I passed by here yesterday, I didn't see the Green Bamboo Residence activating any formations."
Ye Kaishan took a look into the courtyard.
"The spiritual field in the courtyard has just been planted with seeds. It's obvious that Li Qinghai has guessed we would come."
Ye Feng snorted coldly, "Hmph, Li Qinghai knows how to save his own skin. Why didn't he seem so afraid of death last time at Morning Cultivation Mountain?!"
Ye Kaishan and Ye Chongshan both nodded in agreement.
"Yes, last time in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, this kid acted like he wasn't afraid of death. Today, he's scared."
Ye Feng sneered, "Whether he's afraid of death or not, he's going to die anyway!"
"Senior Brother Ye, you're right. We will definitely help you kill this kid!" The two brothers immediately pledged their loyalty.
Ye Feng was very satisfied, "Good. Once you kill Li Qinghai, I'll ask my cousin for two Foundation Establishment Pills for you."
The two brothers were overjoyed, "Thank you, Senior Brother Ye. Once we succeed in Foundation Establishment, we will go through fire and water for you!"
Ye Feng nodded, "Alright, I'll leave the rest to you. Once it's done, send me a message."
"Understood," the two brothers replied.
Ye Feng said no more and left on his sword.
"Big brother, what do we do now?" Ye Kaishan asked.
"Just wait for a chance. I don't believe Li Qinghai won't come out. As long as we seize an opportunity, we can kill him!"
"Simply killing him is too easy. I want to cut off one of his arms first and see him beg for mercy."
"Alright, you can do as you please then."
The two brothers said as they flew to a nearby forest.
They hid within, secretly watching the Green Bamboo Residence, waiting for Li Qinghai to come out.
A night passed.
Morning.
Inside the Green Bamboo Residence.
Li Qinghai was drawing his sword with a weary expression, indicating he hadn't just gotten up to practice but had been drawing his sword all night.
As he drew his sword, he muttered to himself.
"I love cultivating immortality, and cultivating immortality loves me..."
"I love cultivating immortality, and cultivating immortality loves me..."
The slogan wasn't loud, but his passion for cultivating immortality was evident.
But it didn't move the Book of Good Fortune.
Exhausted, Li Qinghai stopped drawing his sword and couldn't help but curse.
"Damn Book of Good Fortune, I've been staying up all night cultivating, and you still won't give me back my qualification to cultivate immortality."
For Li Qinghai, the best way to deal with this crisis wasn't to learn some powerful life-saving technique to protect himself.
It was to regain his qualification to cultivate immortality!
That way, he wouldn't fear death.
He could even point at Ye Fan's nose and curse him.
But unfortunately, the Book of Good Fortune remained unresponsive, leaving him with no choice.
He returned to the bed, sat cross-legged, and circulated the Five Element Longevity Scroll again.
An hour later, his body was revitalized.
However, Li Qinghai didn't choose to continue practicing the Sword Drawing Technique.
Instead, he took out another manual.
This was a manual on controlling objects.
He had casually picked it up from the Library Pavilion, not even bothering to look at the name.
"Sword Flight."
He murmured the two words on the cover.
Sword Flight was a very ordinary technique, one that almost every beginner disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect possessed.
Of course, even if some disciples didn't like using swords and preferred knives or staffs, they could still learn Sword Flight.
Because once you mastered the basic technique, it could be applied universally.
If you could fly with a sword, you could naturally fly with a knife.
You could control any magic treasure to fly.
If you happened to fancy a person and wanted to... fly with them.
Then you might have to go to the Amorous Union Sect!
