Spirit Ruin, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Chapter 41 Lucid Dreams Immortal Palace

Li Guanqis assessment exam went without suspense and he was able to return to the inner sect without difficulty. As a disciple that was already close to breaking through the tenth level of Qi Refinement, everyone in the sect had known what the results would be beforehand.

During this time, Li Nanting made sure to check up on his disciple several times a day, afraid that Li Guanqi would jump the gun and begin his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.

Ah, but I havent even considered Foundation Establishment at all. The amount of qi I need to break through from the tenth level of Qi Refinement is still too much.

In the quiet room, Li Guanqi couldnt help but let out a deep sigh. At this moment, Li Guanqis dantian was as vast as a lake. If we were to compare it to a Heaven-Grade Spirit Root disciples dantian, it would still dwarf that disciples dantian in size.

In other words, if Li Guanqi wanted to break through again and expand the size of his dantian, the total amount of spiritual energy needed would be comparable to what a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would need!

Afterwards, Li Guanqi exchanged all his points for spirit stones in the sect. The following days were filled with even more cultivation.

After a full twenty days, the floor if Li Guanqis cultivation room was covered in powder from crushed spirit stones. Suddenly, the spiritual energy in the quiet room rushed towards Li Guanqi like a vortex. With his breath, a slight sound could be heard.

Boom!

A layer of black, sticky substance oozed out from Li Guanqis skin once again. Then, Li Guanqi opened his eyes, feeling an unprecedented sense of clarity.

At the same time, his five senses became very sharp. His spiritual sea was clear, and he could clearly feel that his divine sense had been greatly enhanced. The size of his dantian had once again expanded.

Next, he needed to absorb the remaining spiritual energy in the room to fill his dantian. The Sword Spirit quietly appeared and gave Li Guanqi a nod, thinking to herself, Although his cultivation speed cant compare to some geniuses from the higher realms, its still quite good. However, the next twelfth and thirteenth levels might be challenging.

After Li Guanqi finished in his breakthrough, he realized that he was covered in a foul-smelling goop. He quickly ran to prepare a bath but as soon as he stepped out of his cultivation room, he saw Yu Suian sitting on the rooftop with a steamed bun in her hand.

When she saw Li Guanqi coming out, she sat up and waved her little hand, saying, Stinky stinky~! Youve already reached the tenth level of Qi Refinement, why do you still have so many impurities? Did you fall into an outhouse or something?

Li Guanqis face darkened, and he didnt pay her any mind. Ever since she had her ribs broken by the sword coffin, she seemed to have attached herself to him. She pestered him every day and asked him to buy steamed buns for her.

Li Guanqi reached out and pulled her down from the rooftop, and then gestured at her, saying, Have you grown taller recently?

He could see that her wrists were growing out from her clothes.

Yu Suian, carefree as always, said, Of course! Im going to grow up to be a big girl in the future!

Just like this, like this~, she said, gesturing with her hands on her chest and buttocks.

Li Guanqi laughed and ruffled her hair, saying, Little rascal, what do you know?

Yu Suian swatted away Li Guanqis hand and rolled her eyes at him. I know everything! Hmph, Im going to find Master Li.

However, as Li Guanqi was taking a bath, the jade slip next to him suddenly flickered. After infusing it with a strand of his qi, he heard Li Nantings voice.

Guanqi, come to the hall after youre ready.

After putting down the jade slip, Li Guanqi began to contemplate how to conceal his cultivation level in the future. After all, in the world of cultivation, the recognized limit for Qi Refinement was the tenth level, so what would they say about his the eleventh level Besides, he understood better than anyone the principle of being accused of hoarding cultivation techniques.

If someone with a higher cultivation decided that they coveted his secrets, Li Guanqi wouldnt even know when he died. So, he decided that he had to keep this matter to himself.

At the main hall of the Thunder Peak.

Li Guanqi thought there wasan important meeting happening there, but to his surprise, his master was was the only one there. Li Nanting approached him, and furrowed his brows in confusion.

With an anxious tone, he asked, Have you reached Foundation Building?

Without waiting for Li Guanqi to respond, Li Nanting probed around and mumbled to himself, No, isnt this still the tenth level of Qi Refinement?

Hmm? Did I sense it wrong?

Li Guanqi scratched his head awkwardly and said, I havent reached Foundation Building. Its just I have a strange feeling sometimes. I dont know why, but I feel like my dantian has grown a bit

Hearing this, Li Nantings expression turned somewhat dark. To be honest, he didnt even know what kind of disciple he had taken in. In just four months since joining, his cultivation level had been like a roller coaster. He thought he had just seen his disciple become the fastest Foundation Building disciple in the Great Xia Sword Sect. How could this sudden change happen?

Li Nanting had also heard from Yu Suian that there was a layer of impurities left in his body after washing and marrow-cleansing. In the end, Li Guanqi simply spread his hands and said he didnt know what was happening either. During cultivation, things just happened unexpectedly.

Li Nanting had already become accustomed to the peculiarities with him and decided not to worry about it as long as his body was fine.

Li Guanqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief because if the old man were to inspect his dantian, he would surely notice something unusual.

Li Nanting spoke softly, I have some good news to tell you.

Hmm? What good news? While saying this, Li Guanqi took out a bottle of good wine from his bag of holding. Although it couldnt compare to the immortal brews made from various spiritual fruits on the mountain, it still cost a considerable amount of silver.

Li Guanqi poured the old man a glass of wine, and the old man smiled slightly. The Lucid Dreams Immortal Palace, which we jointly control with other sects, will open in one month. This time, the Great Xia Sword Sect has been allocated five slots, and one of them is for you.

Li Guanqi frowned and asked softly, What is the Lucid Dreams Immortal Palace? Is it something like an immortal realm?

Li Nanting pondered for a moment and explained in a low voice, Its an extremely mysterious realm. It only opens once every hundred years, and each time it contains different treasures. The Lucid Dreams Immortal Palace is like a gateway to various realms. Normally, those who enter can gain significant benefits. So, your slot this time is precious; you must cherish it.

Li Guanqi nodded in response, showing a great deal of interest in the Lucid Dreams Immortal Palace. Besides, he was planning to leave the sect for some time, as it would be hard to explain his sudden breakthrough to the twelfth and thirteenth levels of Qi Refinement.

Afterward, the old man instructed Li Guanqi to pack his things, and as he was about to leave, he even gave him a magical sword. When Li Guanqi held the sharp and gleaming sword, he didnt know how to express his gratitude.

Li Nanting just waved his hand with a smile, saying that people from the Artifacts Pavilion had informed him that Li Guanqi had already obtained more than a dozen swords in the last few months. He had no use for this sword, so he might as well keep it himself.

However, Li Guanqis gaze remained fixed on the old mans waist, which had previously been carrying a wine gourd for a long time.
