Cultivation is just Chapter 75 Selection

Li Shiming learned of his living quarters from the Identity Jade Disc; it was a single room on the second floor of Qingqiu Pavilion.

During the newcor period, servant disciples delivered food every day, which consisted of two types, ordinary human food and Spirit Food.

The first thing a newcor had to do was follow the path beside Qingqiu Pavilion to the Hidden Technique Pavilion hundreds of ters away to collect their primary Cultivation Technique.

Zhu Ji was asking a newcor sothing, while other newcors were pondering or waiting to be asked.

Li Shiming did not need to change his primary Cultivation Technique, so he did not rush during this ti; it was better to go to the Hidden Technique Pavilion first.

With that thought, he left Qingqiu Pavilion.

Just as he was about to walk on foot, he rembered that there seed to be a paper crane in the newly issued storage bag, so he infused Spiritual Power into the storage bag.

This was a one-cubic storage bag, which was quite nice already.

It was evident from the generosity of the Sky Sea Sect that as long as one reached the Qi Refining First Level, they would be given a storage bag.

The reason it required reaching the Qi Refining First Level was that the storage bag, now given to these newcors, would be unusable to them without Spiritual Power.

Li Shiming took out the paper crane, which naturally was made of paper.

The talisman paper seed to be of high quality, but the paper crane was not a talisman; it was a type of Magic Artifact used for transportation.

He infused a strand of Spiritual Power into the paper crane, which imdiately enlarged and floated before him.

This strand of Spiritual Power created a slight spiritual connection with the paper crane, allowing him to control the crane with his Spirit.

He sat on the paper crane, and it dipped slightly but supported him well.

Honestly, sitting on the paper crane was not very comfortable, and because it was made of paper, he had the feeling that it could break at any mont.

However, he also knew this was an unnecessary worry; with the Rune Array present, even common swords and sabers could not harm the paper crane.

The paper crane soared into the air. He did not dare to fly randomly here, so he controlled the paper crane and flew towards the Hidden Technique Pavilion.

Riding alone on the old crane down to the jade platform, slowly the immortal robes appear from the highest heavens.

When shall the prince cross over Guo Ridge? Play the flute, a tune to the morning clouds break.

Li Shiming had not felt such a profound feeling while on the Flying Boat, but now, riding on the paper crane, he truly and keenly felt the freedom from nature that cultivators possess.

Unfortunately, the distance was a bit short, and he had only enjoyed the mont briefly before arriving in front of the Hidden Technique Pavilion.

He hopped off the paper crane and, with a thought, the crane reverted to its small form and was stored back into his storage bag.

Walking into the Hidden Technique Pavilion, he saw sothing different from the bookshelves he had envisioned; at least on the first floor, there was not a single book in sight.

"Show

your Identity Jade Disc. Which Cultivation Technique do you wish to take?" a cultivator wearing the robe of the Qi Refinent Realm asked casually.

Li Shiming noticed a badge on the cultivator's chest that read "Hidden Technique," suggesting that this person was a sect cultivator serving in the Hidden Technique Pavilion.

He handed over his Identity Jade Disc, and the cultivator placed the Identity Jade Disc beneath an Array.

"As a newcor, you can freely choose one Qi Refinent Realm cultivation technique," the cultivator said, looking at Li Shiming with a surprised glance before continuing, "You have a sect reward, which allows you to freely choose an additional Qi Refinent Realm combat skill!"

Li Shiming had been wondering, wasn't there supposed to be a sect reward? So it was waiting here for him.

He didn't know how valuable a free Qi Refinent Realm combat skill might be, but having a reward was good enough, and he wasn't in a position to be picky.

"May I ask if there are any good Body Refining Techniques you can recomnd?" Li Shiming handed over five Spirit Stones and inquired.

In his previous life, he had work experience, and although the two worlds were different, social customs and etiquette were largely the sa.

Although he could ask Zhu Ji for information about Body Refining Techniques, compared to the cultivators working in the Hidden Technique Pavilion, Li Shiming believed that the cultivators here knew more.

"It seems Junior Brother already has a main cultivation technique in mind, call

Senior Brother Liu. Body Refining Techniques are quite expensive, so it is indeed cost-effective to use your free newbie slot for a Body Refining Technique! What primary attribute do you want your Body Refining Technique to focus on so I can give you so recomndations?" Senior Brother Liu said with a smile, deftly pocketing the Spirit Stones.

"What are the options for a tal-attribute Body Refining Technique?" thought Li Shiming, hastening to reply.

"There are quite a few tal-attribute Body Refining Techniques in the Hidden Technique Pavilion. 'Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill' is a Buddhist Body Refining Technique, but that bald crowd's techniques require a foundation in Buddhist studies to get started, otherwise it's very difficult to master. Plus, Buddhist technique nas are very intimidating, but their effects are indeed strong.

'Copper Body Technique' is a Body Refining Technique modified from Corpse Refining Skill, using various toxins to strengthen oneself. This technique, once mastered, not only confers extre defensive power but also carries a certain degree of toxicity; however, if you pursue this path, finding a Daoist couple will probably be out of the question!"

"'Dragon Elephant Profound Skill' is a Taoist Body Refining Technique that requires a large amount of precious Spiritual dicines. Once mastered, it's said to possess the strength of both a dragon and an elephant, considered equal to the top-tier 'Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill.'" Senior Brother Liu, having received the Spirit Stones, beca quite talkative and listed out three Body Refining Techniques for Li Shiming.

Li Shiming hesitated. Although Senior Brother Liu looked down on 'Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill', Li Shiming could tell that Senior Brother Liu was still quite wary of it.

As for 'Copper Body Technique,' he wouldn't consider it at all. Cultivation did not an turning oneself into an unnatural being, and cultivating a body full of poison felt disgusting even to think about.

The 'Dragon Elephant Profound Skill' was particularly praised by Senior Brother Liu, appearing to be an exceptional Body Refining Technique.

But the issue was resources; a large amount of precious Spiritual dicines, even with his ability as a Spirit Plant Cultivator, couldn't guarantee the supply needed for such precious dicines.

Besides, cultivating the 'Dragon Elephant Profound Skill' would be like telling other cultivators that he had an abundance of precious resources, a risk that wasn't outweighed by the 'Dragon Elephant Profound Skill's' defensive power.

"Please help

retrieve the 'Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill', Senior Brother Liu!" Li Shiming had made his decision and politely stated.

Senior Brother Liu smiled, not persuading him otherwise. Choosing a cultivation technique was a cultivator's own decision; it pertained to their future path, and he dared not offer any suggestions.

After all, even if Li Shiming chose incorrectly, it was rely a Body Refining Technique and not his primary cultivation technique.

Senior Brother Liu took a Jade Scroll from the side and placed it into the Array, where a stream of light began transferring into the Jade Scroll.

"Since you are in your newbie phase, the fee for the Jade Scroll is also waived. The sect's 'Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill' only goes up to the Foundation Establishnt Stage. What I'm copying for you now is the Qi Refinent Realm part.

Sect rules forbid the private transmission of cultivation techniques. If it's verified, the least severe punishnt is destruction of cultivation base and expulsion from the sect; the most severe is execution!" said Senior Brother Liu seriously, while waiting for the transfer to complete.

Li Shiming's eyes fixated on the Jade Scroll, recording through his senses how the Array was transferring to the Jade Scroll.

He didn't know if such recording would be useful, but it was a rare opportunity. Perhaps in the future, when he beca powerful, he could really delve into the knowledge related to Jade Scrolls.
