#53 - Chapter 53: The Four Ancients, Cultivating Spiritual Mantras

The next morning, Yu Sui'an woke up groggily in bed.

She discovered that she was covered with yesterday's blanket, and her little face flushed red.

Turning her head, she found a new set of clothes, which made her ecstatic.

Immediately afterward, she heard the sound of a long sword cutting through the air in the courtyard.

Yu Sui'an, who had changed into the new clothes, couldn't help but beam with joy as she looked at the brand-new white dress.

Pushing the door open, she saw Li Guanqi practicing his sword with elusive movements.

Li Guanqi saw that she was awake and couldn't help but smile, saying, "Not bad, very beautiful and a good fit. The sleeves of your previous clothes were too short."

This earned him an eye-roll from the little girl, and Yu Sui'an said, "Little blind man, aren't you going to rest for a couple of days?"

Li Guanqi smiled slightly and said softly, "Cultivation is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you'll fall behind."

"If you want to achieve great things, you have to persevere in your cultivation every day."

Yu Sui'an said nonchalantly, "Can't you just do it earlier tomorrow?"

Li Guanqi rubbed her head and said, "You, the things that should be done today are delayed even if you do them early tomorrow."

After speaking, Li Guanqi said, "I won't bother with you. Today, I have to listen to the Law Enforcement Elder's sermon and also go to Heavenly Water Peak."

Yu Sui'an didn't cling to him and quickly ran towards the dining area.

"Going to buy buns!"

After taking a bath, Li Guanqi washed his black practice clothes and hung them up to dry.

Putting on a set of pure white sect attire, Li Guanqi walked out of the door and headed straight for Heavenly Sword Peak.

Qin Xian's lecture today was about matters related to Foundation Establishment.

Walking out of the main hall, Li Guanqi pondered, "When one reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, the Yuan Qi in the dantian actually liquefies."

"One can also achieve Bigu, abstaining from mortal food and reducing the production of impurities in the body."

"Lifespan can even reach over two hundred years, and one can support short periods of sword flight!!"

This sermon greatly shocked Li Guanqi. No wonder it is said that only after Foundation Establishment does one truly embark on the path of cultivation.

In this case, the difference between Foundation Establishment and Qi Training cultivators is truly too great.

Even Li Guanqi now wouldn't dare to say that he could steadily kill a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator; it's too difficult.

After Foundation Establishment, one can use more spells and spirit talismans.

Many magical artifacts can only unleash their true power after Foundation Establishment.

Just arriving at the dining hall, Ye Feng and the others gathered around.

Moreover, the strength of these people has made considerable progress.

It seems that these guys have exchanged a lot of useful things for points.

Ye Feng winked and said, "Old Li, want to make a bet to see who reaches Foundation Establishment first?"

Li Guanqi curled his lip and said, "You should be breaking through to the tenth level soon, right?"

Ye Feng smiled and did not deny it. Although Li Guanqi really wanted to earn this kid's money, he really didn't dare to bet this time.

"No bet."

"Why? Aren't you already at the tenth level? I even feel that some people at the peak of the tenth level don't have as strong an aura as you."

Li Guanqi said helplessly, "Isn't it good not wanting you to lose money?"

Zhong Lin opened his mouth and said, "By the way, after Foundation Establishment... what do you think about the Spirit Ruins matter?"

Li Guanqi perked up his ears upon hearing this, while Ye Feng scoffed, "Just treat it as going through the motions. Don't take it too seriously."

"Not to mention our Great Xia Sword Sect, even if the entire Northern Region is added together, there might be something inside only a hundred or eighty Spirit Ruins."

"In the end, it's not easy to have ten or eight lucky ones with weapons and the like."

Lin Dong also nodded slightly and said softly, "There's no need to care too much about this matter. I heard from the elders that the Spirit Ruins matter is not based on talent."

"Spirit Ruins are ethereal and elusive things, even more unpredictable than spiritual roots."

"Some have it, and some don't."

Zhong Lin smiled and said, "I'm afraid that only Old Li here should have a chance."

Li Guanqi shrugged and said, "Okay, don't praise me to death. That thing doesn't look at talent. Who knows if I have it or not."

Afterward, everyone stopped talking and ate in peace. In the afternoon, they had to go to Heavenly Water Peak to learn about spirit incantations.

However, Li Guanqi took this matter to heart. This was not the first time he had heard about the Spirit Ruins.

"Sword Spirit, is there anything in my Spirit Ruins?"

The Sword Spirit said impatiently, "How would I know!"

"Uh... is the difference between having a weapon in the Spirit Ruins and not having one big?"

Li Guanqi originally thought that the Sword Spirit would retort, but unexpectedly, the Sword Spirit's voice carried a very complex emotion and said very solemnly.

"There is a difference! And it's a big one!"

"Almost all of those who can stand at the top of the world are people who have something in their Spirit Ruins."

"Although it's not absolute, it has a big impact!"

In fact, there was one more sentence that the Sword Spirit didn't say, and that was whether Li Guanqi possessed the Spirit Ruins Sword, which also determined whether he could truly control the swords in the sword box.

If he didn't have it, then he could only use the first sword in the sword box in this lifetime.

Soon, Li Guanqi put this matter behind him.

After all, he couldn't think so far ahead. He had just broken through to the twelfth level of Qi Training, and it would take some time to stabilize his realm.

The thirteenth level of Qi Training was even a bit difficult.

He even thought about whether to break through to Foundation Establishment at this time, but he was severely reprimanded by the Sword Spirit.

Heavenly Water Peak.

This time, the one giving the sermon to everyone was actually the Peak Master of Heavenly Water Peak, Shen Lan.

Shen Lan looked at Li Guanqi in front of her with an increasingly strange expression.

In her perception, Li Guanqi's aura at this time was even thicker than many Qi Training ninth level Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This made her a little puzzled, but she didn't think much about it.

"The path of spirit incantations originated in ancient times and was thoroughly developed during the Primordial Era."

"It is said that there are three hundred spirit incantations in total, and the closer the number is to the front, the greater the power."

"The first thirty spirit incantations are even called forbidden incantations."

"However, due to various reasons, after the Primordial and Recent Ancient eras, many spirit incantations are no longer used."

At this time, someone asked a question.

"Uh... Elder Shen, what are the Recent Ancient and Primordial Eras?"

Shen Lan explained somewhat helplessly, "The Recent Ancient Era is about ten thousand years ago, and the Primordial Era is one hundred thousand years ago."

"The Ancient Era is five hundred thousand to one million years ago, and the Prehistoric Era is millions of years ago."

"Usually, go to the Sutra Pavilion more often to read the Chronicles of the Human Spirit Realm. How can you only know how to cultivate?"

Afterward, Shen Lan began to teach everyone how to use spirit incantations in the fastest way.

Li Guanqi was very interested in this kind of attack method.

So far, he had seen three kinds of spirit incantations.

The first one was the spirit incantation used by Qin Xian to trap and kill the two people who seized the body—Serpent Binding!

There was also the Thunder Whip used by Shen Lan, and the spirit incantation used by Lu Kangnian to bind that disciple.

The way to use spirit incantations is to open up special meridians in the body in order to use them most quickly.

The name of the spirit incantation is not because you have to shout out the move, but more like a guide to draw out the aura, so you have to shout out the name and ranking of the spirit incantation.

After Shen Lan waved her hand and put away the human meridian diagram in front of her, she said softly, "This is the meridian operation method of the Thunder Whip. This allows people who do not have thunder-type spiritual power to condense a thunder whip."

"The key is to feel the existence of thunder-type spiritual energy."

Li Guanqi suddenly whispered in a low voice below, "Spirit Incantation! Two hundred and eighty-two, Thunder Whip!"

Crackle!!

A purple thunder whip with a length of more than ten feet instantly appeared in Li Guanqi's palm.

Shen Lan nodded with a smile on her face: "Not bad, this talent is indeed monstrous."
