Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

How could Su Xiyue not see through the little schemes of this demoness in front of her?!

Unperturbed, she took the translucent jade thread, and upon a gentle touch with her fingertips, instantly discerned Leng Ruyu’s internal condition.

Just as Leng Ruyu herself mentioned, the black qi within her had long been entrenched, rooted deeply in her meridians and flesh, making it difficult to remove.

Even after nearly ten hours of treatment from Qin Yu...

There was only slight improvement.

"Could it be that this demoness received too little warmth?"

A hint of doubt flashed through Su Xiyue’s eyes.

After all, only she could perceive the warmth, and naturally, Su Xiyue couldn’t sense the extent of warmth within Leng Ruyu.

"Rest assured, Xiyue sister, I won’t interfere with you and Qin Yu; I have vowed on this matter, never to let it be known..."

Leng Ruyu’s eyes were nurturing tears, looking pitiful and about to cry, a sight that would evoke sympathy in anyone’s heart.

Just that Su Xiyue was not influenced by her.

Seeing that this demoness didn’t have any unrealistic fantasies, Su Xiyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at her, a slight pang of guilt arose in Su Xiyue’s heart.

Though getting warmth could indeed remove black qi, Leng Ruyu’s situation seemed quite miserable at the moment.

She dared not imagine what has happened to leave this demoness in such a state.

In curing her wounds, she not only lost her most precious purity but suffered relentless revenge as well.

It’s safe to say Leng Ruyu is reaping the consequences of the evil seeds she once sowed.

The last bit of resentment in Su Xiyue’s heart also dissipated.

Saying no more, she released the jade thread and then turned to leave the room with light steps.

After her departure, Leng Ruyu curled beneath the bedding, inadvertently drawing a faint smile.

With things as they are.

How could she not seize this opportunity?!

Actually, the warm current within her was already substantial enough to completely clear away the black qi. However, she deliberately used her spiritual power to surround the black qi.

Belonging to... nourishing parasites to sustain herself?!

One could say, at this moment, if Leng Ruyu wished, she could disperse the black qi anytime.

But after it’s cleared?

This was a thought that surfaced upon gaining the warm current, which led to her portraying a pitiful appearance before Su Xiyue.

...

Just after a medicated bath, Qin Yu halted.

"Why?" Liu Zixiao queried, looking at him with puzzlement.

She had already prepared the medicinal materials as instructed by the Sect Leader; no matter what, Qin Yu’s progress must not slow down.

The sense of urgency was palpable.

No one knew if or when the Hundred Sword Sect might attack again.

Even Su Xihe had prepared to preserve the lineage.

As long as Qin Yu and Su Xiyue were alive, the Cyan Mountain Sect would have a day of resurgence!

"Master, disciple wishes to pay a visit to the Library Pavilion." Qin Yu softly expressed his thought.

In fact, he had long wished to go.

Especially after the Hundred Sword Sect’s disruption, he discovered his lack of understanding of this world.

"Do you want to switch to a different cultivation technique or explore other paths?"

Liu Zixiao’s brows furrowed momentarily in puzzlement, then she earnestly advised, "I still suggest you focus calmly on improving your cultivation..."

"Rest assured, Master."

"Disciple merely knows too little about worldly things and wishes to glimpse a little on the first floor of the Library Pavilion to gain some knowledge."

What Qin Yu said was sincere and true.

As for other things, they were incidental.

But all were to gain knowledge!

"Just on the first floor..."

Liu Zixiao had already intended to go to Su Xihe to retrieve a token and took out a jade token from her storage ring, "You hold this and may view all the books on the first floor."

"Thank you, Master!"

Qin Yu was elated.

He had initially thought of requesting several favors, but this made things much easier.

Subsequently, Liu Zixiao personally led Qin Yu to the Library Pavilion.

The entrance still had those two elders.

Curiously.

Even when the Hundred Sword Sect came knocking that day, they did not appear.

Qin Yu naturally didn’t understand the importance of this place.

Should the Cyan Mountain Sect fall, these two elders would ensure all would be extinguished.

Entering the Library Pavilion.

After searching for a while, Qin Yu found a scroll of the Cultivation Secret Record.

Inside it, there were mentions of root bone and realm.

Regarding root bone, it clearly documented the differences in levels.

Having personally experienced mortal bone and spirit bone, Qin Yu casually glanced through it before focusing on the record of Dao Bone.

Only then did he understand why Su Xihe once said the Hundred Sword Sect Leader was not a true Lotus Platform.

It was due to Jian Hai’s root bone.

"Only Dao Bone can sense the Dao Rhyme in heaven and earth?" Qin Yu murmured softly, a look of bewilderment in his eyes. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This world indeed was not what he imagined.

Initially, he thought cultivators were like cultivators, but realized they were entirely different.

Or rather, calling cultivators warlocks more accurately described them.

Even Leng Ruyu at the Golden Core Realm, physically speaking, was definitely inferior to him.

Perhaps this related to cultivators merely cultivating qi.

Or maybe, all of this was intricately linked to the spiritual qi in this realm.

Nevertheless, Qin Yu obtaining Dao Bone was merely a matter of time.

Above Dao Bone was Dao Spirit Body.

Regrettably, as he leafed through the ancient texts, only sparse lines briefly described, "Dao Spirit Body naturally resonates with Dao Rhyme, with extraordinary perception."

"Naturally able to understand Dao Rhyme?!"

This shocked Qin Yu.

Such an astonishing physique existed in the world.

Consider this: even a Hundred Sword Sect Leader without understanding Dao Rhyme already dominated a realm.

Two Lords of Immortal Sects together barely managed to resist.

However, such a physique only existed in ancient texts, with even the author knowing little.

Next, Qin Yu read about realm descriptions.

Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core... Lotus Platform.

He carefully studied Lotus Platform.

After breaking through Golden Core, cultivators consolidate a Lotus Platform within the dantian, hence the name.

Qin Yu understood the previous realms.

But why does Golden Core lead to Lotus Platform?

As a transmigrator, he indeed was aware of the concept of Nascent Soul sitting on the Lotus Platform.

Given that there’s already a Lotus Platform, where has the Nascent Soul gone?!

Could it be...

That those notions were mere fantasies, and Lotus Platform was the reality?

Or perhaps, the cultivators of this world have strayed from the path?!

Being still at Foundation Establishment Realm, Qin Yu naturally couldn’t find answers.

After breaking through Lotus Platform, cultivators can use it to comprehend the Dao Rhyme of heaven and earth.

However, even possessing Dao Bone, comprehending Dao Rhyme was no easy feat.
