"What are you doing, don't you know that private spell duels are forbidden in the valley?"
At that mont, a male voice chided from midair.
Simultaneously, a robe floated down, covering the body of the grievously sinful female cultivator.
"Ah~"
A piercing scream sounded.
...
"Alright, we have understood the situation. Inner Sect Disciple Bai Xun and Yu Qingtan engaged in a private spell duel, with Bai Xun striking first. Bai Xun will be fined two hundred Sect Contribution Points and confined to the Reflection Room for ten days. Yu Qingtan will be fined one hundred Sect Contribution Points."
In a side hall of the Sect's Law Enforcent Hall, Deputy Hall Master Pang Zaisi spoke with a cold face to the three people standing below.
The public areas of Tianxiang Valley all have the capability of an image-recording function in the protective Great Array.
However, he had already asked a junior sister to delete so inappropriate images.
"Elder Uncle Pang, she was clearly the one who initiated the fight!"
The tall female cultivator retorted unwillingly, the slap mark still stinging on her face.
"Fang Qi, she did not use Spiritual Power before that. As for verbal disputes and fights, the Sect does not get involved."
Pang Zaisi responded coldly, his clean-cut face twitching at the corner of his mouth.
Bai Xun was still wearing his robe, gazing at him with fervent eyes.
Dressed in his clothes, Bai Xun indeed appeared more enticing, but he...
"Do any of you still have objections?"
The three said nothing more.
Pang Zaisi swiftly left the side hall.
"Hehe~" Yu Qingtan sneered, leaving the side hall to go to another and pay a fine of ten thousand Spirit Stones.
One Sect Contribution Point can be exchanged for one hundred Spirit Stones; usually, it doesn't work the other way around, but it is an exception when the Sect imposes a fine — one hundred Spirit Stones can offset one Contribution Point.
Back at the courtyard.
She let Little Tao out into the open space to get so air. It liked to run wild too, but being a creature with intelligence, it knew restraint.
It hadn't finished digesting and absorbing the Heavenly Demon at it recently ate.
Entering the Cultivation Room, Yu Qingtan first learned the Second Stage Breath-Concealing Technique.
Having a solid foundation in the first stage, she quickly mastered the Second Stage Breath-Concealing Technique.
Then, Yu Qingtan took out a pile of dium Grade Spirit Stones and began to cultivate the Greenwave Technique.
Recently, she had been luxuriously using dium Grade Spirit Stones for her cultivation.
"Hmm~"
After circulating her cultivation for one cycle, Yu Qingtan let out a comfortable moan.
Unsurprisingly, given the presence of a Third-order Spirit Vein, the density of Spiritual Energy was extrely high, making the efficiency of her cultivation at least thirty percent higher than directly using dium Grade Spirit Stones in the Yunhua Mountain Range.
Two days later, the liquefied Spiritual Power in Yu Qingtan's Dantian reached five hundred drops, her Dantian further expanded, and her Divine Sense range also reached one hundred and fifty ters.
She had broken through to the mid-Foundation Establishnt phase.
Having used the Cultivation Upgrade Card, her Cultivation Level was already close to mid-Foundation Establishnt, and she had been diligently cultivating recently.
The cultivation speed of a Celestial-grade Water Spirit Root was not to be underestimated.
In addition, she had also barely learned the Soul Cleansing Technique passed on by Fu Nian; although she was just a beginner, combined with Soul Cleansing Music, there was a sense of purifying the soul and enhancing Divine Sense.
Her Divine Sense was already comparable to that of an average late-Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, and the breakthrough in her Cultivation Level had further strengthened her physique.
Seizing this opportunity, Yu Qingtan took out a small pile of Wasteland Crystals, and then ate the Qing Leaf Banyan fruit.
It tasted like a pear, but not sweet.
As soon as the Qing Leaf Banyan fruit entered her stomach, Yu Qingtan felt as if her body was about to lt.
Clenching her teeth, Yu Qingtan circulated the Ice Skin Jade Bone Art to temper her body.
Sotis it felt like a thousand ants gnawing at her, sotis like a thousand needles piercing her, sotis like being hacked and chopped with axes, sotis like being burnt by a blazing fire...
After a whole day and night of agony, Yu Qingtan finally opened her eyes.
A thin layer of black filth covered her body.
After a Purification Spell, Yu Qingtan looked at her own smooth, soft, and fair body, and a smile couldn't help but spread across her face.
Body Refinent Foundation Establishnt, finally achieved.
Not only did the strength of the body surge, but the power was also astonishing.
With her physical body alone, she could completely contend with ordinary Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
After resting well for a day, Yu Qingtan left the small courtyard.
Heading towards the Scripture Pavilion.
In addition to the Cultivation Techniques, Spells, and Secret Techniques that needed to be exchanged for Contribution Points, there were also many books available for free borrowing in the Pavilion.
For example, "Introduction to Spiritual dicine and Spirit Ore," "Cultivation Encyclopedia," "moirs of a True Heavenly Wolf," "The Romantic History of the Great Sun True Monarch," "Detailed Explanation of the Thirty-Six Cultivation Postures," and so on.
Yu Qingtan still lacked knowledge in these areas, so she naturally wanted to take the opportunity to learn more.
A few days later, it was the monthly day for Foundation Establishnt cultivators to lecture, and Inner Sect Disciples could attend for free — one of the benefits.
The lectures were basically given by senior Foundation Establishnt cultivators in the later stages, and although Yu Qingtan was already in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishnt, she had always been groping on her own, lacking a foundation.
Upon reaching the Lecture Hall, nearly a hundred disciples were already scattered around the room, sitting.
Yu Qingtan found a spot in a back corner to sit down.
Soon after, a woman in a purple dress arrived on her sword.
"Today it's the venerable Zixin of the Purple Mysterious Sword lecturing, it's rumored that Senior Zixin once slayed a Heavenly Demon with her late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivation, shocking the Southeast Sea," a disciple whispered to another at the front when the woman in purple appeared.
"Yes, it's really worth coming today."
After Zixin took her seat, the entire hall fell silent.
"The path of cultivation first and foremost requires steadfastness of heart. What is steadfastness of heart? The Dao is comprehended through the heart, the heart is enlightened by the Dao. When the heart is enlightened, the Dao descends, and when the Dao descends, the heart understands..."
Zixin did not waste words and began to lecture directly.
An hour later, she departed gracefully on her sword, leaving behind disciples still imrsed in contemplation.
Yu Qingtan listened attentively, her understanding deepened significantly.
After another period equivalent to the ti it takes to burn a stick of incense, Yu Qingtan erged from her contemplation.
The others had already begun to trickle out.
At this mont, a cute girl in a pink dress ca up to Yu Qingtan and sweetly asked, "Sister, hello, is this your first ti attending the Lecture Hall?"
Faced with a doe-eyed loli who was a head shorter than herself, Yu Qingtan felt smitten by her cuteness.
"Yes, it is," Yu Qingtan replied with a smile.
"Then, sister, would you need any of the past lectures' Sound-recording Jade Slips? It's only a thousand Spirit Stones each, do you want to buy so?" the girl in the pink dress sweetly asked, with the corners of her eyes slightly turned up, resembling a little, shrewd fox.
Yu Qingtan's mind stirred at the words; she wouldn't be able to stay sequestered in the sect for extended periods, and having the recordings of the lectures on Jade Slips would be quite handy.
"I would like to, but I don't have many Spirit Stones, could you make it cheaper? How about a hundred Spirit Stones each?"
Yu Qingtan put on a pitiful face as she spoke.
The girl in the pink dress stiffened.
"Sister, you're driving a hard bargain here, the lowest I can go is five hundred Spirit Stones each. If you buy more than ten, there's a 10% discount. I have thirty here," she said.
"Deal, I'll take all thirty," Yu Qingtan declared decisively.
From the strange looks the nearby disciples gave her, Yu Qingtan felt she might have been overcharged.
But as long as she felt it was worth it, that was all that mattered.
"Sister is straightforward,"
The girl in the pink dress was sowhat surprised but responded happily.
Yu Qingtan checked the Sound-recording Jade Slips and after confirming they were fine, she paid thirteen thousand five hundred Spirit Stones.
The Jade Slips contained lectures from only five cultivators, which was quite normal.
The so-called Dao is not to be imparted lightly, nor the law to be transmitted casually.
Most cultivators were unwilling to have the contents of their lectures sold.
The girl in the pink dress also gifted a Sound-recording Array thod that could be used for recording as well as playing the sound from the Sound-recording Jade Slips.
After the transaction, both parties felt satisfied and departed, convinced they had made a good deal.
