Eternal Reverence - Chapter 86

Chapter 86
“I am left with 50,000 contribution points and that’s not enough to redeem a mystic class, high-tier body refinement technique . Even if I did have enough, I don’t have any resources to cultivate it . ”

After becoming an inner sect disciple, Li Fuchen began to plan what he had to do next .

It wasn’t impossible to cultivate a mystic class, high-tier body refinement technique, but it was impossible for now .

The mystic class, mid tier Interception Form required 75,000 points . A mystic class, high-tier body refinement technique would at least be 200,000 points, even after the 30% discount, it would still require 140,000 points .

(TL note: I changed Interception Form Dao to Interception Form)
This was just the small issue, the main issue was not having resources for cultivation .

A single yellow class, peak tier body tempering pill cost 10,000 points . In order to cultivate a mystic class, high tier body refinement technique to completion, that would require at least hundreds of pills, and that was millions of contribution points .

When talking about mystic class, high-tier martial arts manuals, it was inevitable to mention the treatment that 1st class inner sect disciples received .

In the Cang Lan Sect, only 1st class inner sect disciples, direct disciples, and inner sect elders were allowed to redeem mystic class, high-tier martial arts . A majority of the outer sect elders didn’t have the qualifications to do so, even if they had enough contribution points .

In fact, when Li Fuchen became a 1st class inner sect disciple, he had already succeeded .

Even Guan Hong, Guan Yan, Yang Lie, Yang Zhan, and Li Shanhe were all just 3rd class inner sect disciples . Their status in the sect was far inferior when compared to Li Fuchen .

Li Fuchen thought to himself, ‘Now that I am an Origin Realm martial artist, I should cultivate a light body technique . ’

The lowest grade of body refinement techniques were yellow class, peak-tier, but the lowest grade of light body techniques were mystic class, low-tier .

Light body techniques had high restrictions on one’s qi . Those that weren’t at the Origin Realm yet, would never be able to fully utilize the light body technique, even if they had the best perception .

‘Other than that, I can also cultivate a mystic class, low-tier sword art . ’

Until now, Li Fuchen had cultivated a total of nine sword arts .

2 yellow class, low-tier – Crescent Sword Style and Tiger Fang Cross Slash .

2 yellow class, mid-tier – Clear Breeze Sword Style and Shao Shang Sword Style .

1 yellow class, high-tier – Red Jade Sword Style .

4 yellow class, peak-tier – Scarlet Fire Sword Style, Tri-part Sword Style, Dripping Sword Style, and Soaring Dragon Sword Style .

Even though sword arts depended on quality and not quantity . Li Fuchen believed that in order to achieve the peak of the sword dao, one needed to cultivate a vast array of sword arts .


There is saying, ‘To pluck all the advantages from everyone and everything . ’ and with an vast array of sword arts, that would provide Li Fuchen a huge boost to his sword dao contents . When the day came, all these contents would form the base of Li Fuchen’s sword dao .

Had it not been due to his insufficient stamina, Li Fuchen would have cultivated dozens of yellow class sword arts all at one go .

After lunch, Li Fuchen headed to the inner sect martial arts hall to redeem a light body technique and a mystic class, low-tier sword art .

They were Wind Shadow Steps and the Meteor Sword Style .

Wind Shadow Steps, which had wind in its name was of the same foundation as the Cyclone Kick Style .

But the Cyclone Kick Style was all in all a kick art, and lacked involvement in regards to a light body effect .

Whereas for Wind Shadow Steps, it was a true light body technique . Once cultivated to a certain level, one could travel as fast as the wind or even faster .



As for the Meteor Sword Style, it was a sword art which put an emphasis on extreme speed and firepower .

It had only one sword move – Meteor Fall!

A name with such dominance and intimidation .

‘An inner sect disciple needs to complete at least one sect mission every year . But there is no hurry now, I can wait until the ninth or tenth month . Before that, I will cultivate both the Wind Shadow Steps and Meteor Sword Style first . ’

No matter which sect mission it was, there would always be a risk of danger, but whether it would be a small risk or bigger risk, is to be determined . Even though Li Fuchen wasn’t an average first level Origin Realm martial artist, there would always be experts out there . Any stronger Origin Realm experts could easily send Li Fuchen to his death .

To boost one’s ability before taking on any mission, was a wise decision .

“Quickly, send him to the medical hall . Any later, and there will be no hope for survival . ”

On the way back, Li Fuchen saw four inner sect disciples sprinting, one of them carried a young man whose face had turn black . It seems that he was poisoned or was injured by someone using poison arts .

“Isn’t this Qian shixiong? How did he get such serious injuries?”

“He must have met an underworld martial artist who cultivated a poison art . ”

“Hai, every year, numerous inner sect disciples would die under the hands of these underworld martial artists . It is considered lucky to return alive . ”

“I agree, in another month, I too need to complete a mission . I hope the mission goes smoothly without any accidents . ”

On the sidewalk, many inner sect disciples would be pointing and gossiping .



“Seems like the sect mission is much more dangerous than I thought . ”

Seeing this scene, it helped Li Fuchen gain new knowledge about sect missions .

But thinking about it, the sect didn’t need flowers that were grown in greenhouses, but needed massive trees that could protect the sect from storms . Without any setbacks, how can one quickly develop into a true martial artist?

***

Back at his courtyard, Li Fuchen began cultivating the Wind Shadow Steps manual .

The Wind Shadow Steps is extremely mystical . According to the manual, once at sub-completion, one can have the body weight of an swallow . At completion, the cultivator would attain an extreme speed, and could travel like a spirit, emitting no presence or noise .

With his green soul spirit, Li Fuchen spent three days to attain the novice stage of the Wind Shadow Steps .

As his qi followed the Wind Shadow Steps qi circulation route, his body felt as though it lost dozens of kg . Even without wrapping his feet with qi, he would be able to stand on a branch the width of an arm without breaking it .

Only allowed on Creativenovels . com

One month later, Wind Shadow Steps was at the sub-completion stage .

The current Li Fuchen could stand on a thin branch the size of finger and not break it .

“The light body technique is so miraculous . ” Li Fuchen’s eyes shone with joy .

The light body technique was also a kind of technique that had its own unique method to circulate qi .

Everytime he used the light body technique, Li Fuchen felt as though he was released from all resistants . As though, he could rush out without a sound nor presence with a slight move .



But he could not move too fast for now . If his speed exceeded a certain limit, it would cause some noise to leak out .

“I wonder how it would feel when Wind Shadow Steps is at the completion stage . ”

When one’s body turned light, it gave such a wonderful sensation .

Li Fuchen was able to stand on the water previously, due to him using qi .

Using qi to spread the force that is produced by one’s weight . To step on a small lily pad or a floating platform .

But the light body technique is able to make one’s body weight become lighter . Currently, Li Fuchen is still unable stand on water, but once the Wind Shadow Steps was at an higher cultivation stage, standing on water would be an easy feat .

After all, it was already possible for him to stand on a finger width branch .

The only pity, is that, the circulation method of the light body technique was unique . Thus, it is unable to concurrently activate at the same time as the Scarlet Mystic Flame Technique .

But that was just a small problem .

His whole body was filled with Scarlet Fire qi and even if he didn’t circulated the Scarlet Mystic Flame Technique, he could still utilize 80% of its firepower .

In fact, it wasn’t just light body techniques, some formidable martial arts had their own qi circulation method too .

Qi circulation methods had differences too .

A cultivation technique’s qi circulation was for absorbing the heaven and earth energy and the refinement of qi .

Light body techniques’ and martial arts’ qi circulation were a kind of qi utilization .

Which is why, cultivation techniques were call inner arts . Light body techniques called light arts, and for palm arts, fist arts, kick arts, and sword arts, they were called martial arts .
