Chapter 66: Obtaining Another Mystic-Tier Magical Art

Lu Lan’s explanation undoubtedly gave Li Ming a better understanding of the cultivation world.

In this world, sects vied for resources, and everyone sought immortality. To outsiders, the world of cultivation might seem like a paradise, but what it truly contained was but a cruel reality.

Li Ming was feeling this exact way at the moment.

“In the cultivation world, everyone aims to survive. Of course, it is a bit of a different story for cultivators like those from the Heavenly Demon Sect.” Li Ming nodded as he listened.

Since this world ran by the law of the jungle, whether it was for sects or for individuals, their best option was to increase their strength.

Chaotic times were like a flood, and in the cultivation world, such floods were the norm.

The cultivation world could be likened to a rip current. On the surface, it may seem calm, but if one looked closely, one would find a powerful current beneath.

It was not actually a calm slice of shore on the beach, but a terrifying current ready to drag you to your death at any moment.

If the world of cultivation were likened to the ocean, whether it was the flapping of the wings of the birds on the sea or the giant beasts swimming under the sea, fluctuations could be observed at the surface.

Soon enough, the group got back to the sect.

Recently, many disciples went out on missions. Although the majority of them managed to return, there were still some who would never get to do so.

The entire Heavenly Southern Region seemed to have fallen into enemy hands as disciples from the various sects came pouring in.

It seemed like they all wanted a piece of the pie that was the Heavenly Southern Region.

However, that did not change the fact that the Divine Will Sect was a large sect and was the number one sect in the Heavenly Southern Region. Therefore, there had been no major movements until now.

There were only minor scuffles and battles.

Because of that, it was still relatively peaceful in the sect.

After reporting the completion of his mission, Li Ming received merit points and spirit stones.

However, before he could go to the market, the spirit stones he just got were already absorbed by the black stone.

“F*cking hell…”

“Can’t you leave some for me?”

“Don’t you know that cultivation requires a lot of spirit stones?”

Li Ming was instantly left speechless. He was already alone in the Martial Hall, and he was bereft of all kinds of resources.

The other five halls had their own resources, but Li Ming did not.

After all, he was alone. The sect could not possibly give special treatment to him alone.

Therefore, Li Ming could only rely on completing missions to earn some merit points and spirit stones for himself.

But in the end, he still had a parasite like the black stone with him.

If it was not for the fact that the black stone still had some use to it, Li Ming would have really considered smashing it apart.

“Stingy.”

“Young man, I’m not taking these spirit stones for free.”

“It is just that you will get your reward in the long term.”

Hearing the black stone’s words, Li Ming immediately rolled his eyes. “Get lost.”

“Stop pretending in front of me.”

“I was saving these spirit stones to buy some medicinal herbs in the market. I could have even gone and bought some magical arts with them.”

“Aren’t you just hindering my cultivation?”

Li Ming complained.

The last time he fought with a late-stage foundation establishment cultivator, his only magical artifact had been directly shattered.

After reaching the foundation establishment realm, he could start refining his natal magical treasure.

This was something that most foundation establishment cultivators would choose to do.

However, not everyone could do it.

Not only did one need a foundation establishment true fire to refine a natal magical treasure, but the materials that were needed in order to refine a natal magical treasure and an ordinary magical treasure were different as well.

A natal magical treasure was a magical treasure that would accompany a cultivator for nearly his entire life.

No matter how high a cultivator’s level was, their natal magical treasure would upgrade alongside them.

Thus, the materials needed to refine the natal magical treasure were naturally much more valuable.

Generally speaking, cultivators had different natal magical treasures.

Some were used for combat, some were used for defense, and there were all kinds of them.

But no matter what, the materials that were used for them had to be the best. “Don’t you just need magical treasure materials?”

“I happen to have a type of crystal here. Although I do not know what it’s called, it’s not bad.”

“I don’t need it now anyway.”

The black stone spoke to Li Ming. Before Li Ming could react, light shone from the black stone in the next moment, and a crystal instantly appeared in Li Ming’s palm.

He looked at the crystal carefully.

There were strange patterns on this crystal. It looked messy, but it managed to present a complete picture.

THis was the first time he had seen these patterns.

The weight of the crystal was quite ordinary, it did not feel any different from a normal stone.

There was simply no difference besides its appearance.

Looking at it carefully, Li Ming did not find anything special about the crystal.

“No matter how I look at it, there’s basically no difference between this and a regular stone. Is the magic treasure refined by this thing very powerful?”

Li Ming looked all over it for some time, but he really could not find anything special about it. Whether it was in terms of feeling or other aspects, there was a huge difference between this and the crystals that could be found in the market.

No matter how he looked at it, it just looked like a beautiful stone.

“Ignorant. I don’t know what this thing is either. However, I do know that many people fought for it back then, and I had to put in a lot of effort to get it. When refining this into a magical treasure, ordinary foundation establishment true fire won’t do as it would not even be able to melt it down.”

“If it was not for the fact that you have the golden crow true fire and cultivated the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, I would not have even given this to you.” Li Ming immediately took notice of the black stone’s words.

This stone appeared to have a very clear understanding of his situation.

However, the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art had been given to him by that woman.

This stone was indeed not simple, but Li Ming did not know the origin of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art. He only knew that the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art that he had was incomplete.

However, from the black stone’s words, it was obvious that it knew of the origin of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.

“You seem to know quite a lot about the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art…”

Li Ming said out loud. However, the black stone obviously did not want to reveal anything related to the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.

Instead, it changed the topic.

“What kind of magical arts do you want? I happen to have one here. It’s not like I’m taking your spirit stones for nothing.”

After the black stone said that, before Li Ming could even say anything, a beam of light shot into his forehead.

Instantly, a magical art appeared in his mind.

“Great Sun Heaven-Overturning Seal?”

“A low-grade mystic-tier magical art.”

Li Ming looked at the magical art curiously.

The things given by this black stone were indeed very good.

It was very difficult for people with foundation establishment cultivation to come into contact with such things.

However, he had not fully comprehended the Imperial Finger from before, and now he had another low-grade mystic-tier technique. This left Li Ming feeling a little helpless.

“I have not even fully comprehended the Imperial Finger yet.”

“Now you gave me another difficult magical art.”

Li Ming immediately complained.

As a body cultivator, Li Ming had been cultivating for three years, so he naturally had his own views on cultivation.

If he had not learned one thing, he did not feel like it was useful to rush and learn something else.

As the saying went, you should not bite more than you can chew.

If he learned too much at once, he would not be able to completely understand the essence of what he learned.

Naturally, he would then be unable to unleash its full might.

Just like the Cauldron Transformation Art.

The better he grasped the magical art, the more realistic the cauldron would appear!

Li Ming was still thinking about when or how he would study the Imperial Finger, but now he had another mystic-tier magical art.

“You already know the Imperial Finger, what you are lacking is the proper attitude and way of thought when using it.”

“This is the perfect time to transition magical arts..”
