Seeking the Immortal Way

Thinking about that, Lin Yan kept the secret manual in his hand, closed his eyes, and started to follow the method that his master had taught him, and started to feel the surrounding nature spirit energy. He also discovered that the spirit energy was much richer than the spirit energy in the horse stables.

Drawing spirit energy into his body, after going through all the major acupoints in his body, the spirit energy circulated around his body before finally storing it in the Dantian Qi Mansion. After six hours, Lin Yan felt that his Dantian Qi Mansion was full, and could not be injected at all.

However, the change wasn't too obvious. Recalling back to what his master had said during class, the first step to becoming a cultivator was to learn how to absorb spiritual energy into one's body and create a Dantian Qi Mansion. As spiritual energy continuously poured into them, the dantian would feel a sense of expansion, and it would gradually expand.

During the middle stage of the Refinement Stage, a Qi tornado would form within the Dantian Qi Mansion. At the peak of the late stage, the Dantian Qi Mansion would form an unbreakable form. This was the success of Foundation Establishment.

As for Lin Yan's current dantian, it was only filled with gas. If not for his own spirit sense, he would not have made any movements; after all, he was still at the first level of Qi Refining.

Opening his eyes, Lin Yan carefully recalled his master's words. After his Dantian was full, he would need to use up energy during cultivation, exhausting all of the spirit energy in his Dantian and accumulating it again. Over time, he would have a chance to progress.

Thinking about that, Lin Yan secretly thought to himself, in the Heavenly Star Peak, the disciples use only one method of consuming Spirit Qi, it was simply using the basic sword techniques to deplete the Spirit Qi, but he himself is different. At night, he can train with the Purple Void Pupil Skill, and the rate at which he consumes Spirit Qi is more than ten times faster than when he uses the sword.

From the looks of it, as long as he was able to persevere like this for a long time, then his cultivation speed would definitely be able to catch up to his other senior brothers.

Closing his eyes again, Lin Yan started to cultivate his Purple Void Pupil Skill s. He activated the Spirit Qi in his body and moved it from his meridians on his back to his forehead, to his head, to his spiritual altar, to his temples, and then to his eyes.

In less than two hours, the spirit energy in Lin Yan's Dantian Qi Mansion had been completely used up.

Usually, at this time, Lin Yan would fall head first onto the bed and fall into a deep slumber, sleeping until the sun rose.

But today, Lin Yan did not do so. Instead, he once again absorbed the spirit energy into his body, filling his dantian up. After another six hours or so, he filled his dantian to the brim with spirit energy.

When the exhausted Lin Yan opened his eyes once again, the sky had already turned white. The bright red sun rose from the mountain in the distance and reached his head out.

Lin Yan glanced outside the window, and a tired smile appeared on his face. He thought to himself, it's a good thing I didn't have to walk that far on the mountain to pick up the water, if not his body would have been unable to take it.

After packing his things and changing his clothes, he went out to find Zhang Ming and the other senior brothers for breakfast.

As the few of them came to the kitchen, they continued to chat with each other.

"I heard that in the place you're currently staying, there was once a Senior Brother Ling Yun. This person has an extraordinary swordsmanship and is a sword fanatic. His talent is extraordinary and he is Master's most prized disciple."

"That's right, I have also heard about this before, that Senior Brother Ling Yun's swordsmanship is unrivaled amongst the disciples of the same generation, adding that this person's root bone is not mediocre, he has secluded himself in the room for twenty years, comprehended sword intent, gathered a hundred family heads, and actually created a set of Wind and Cloud swordsmanship, in the great sect competition, he ascended to the sky in a single step, and obtained first place."

"Speaking of this Senior Brother Ling Yun, he really is an extraordinary person. It's a pity that he died too early, causing Master to feel extremely grieved."

Hearing that, Lin Yan frowned, and anxiously asked his senior: "Falling? Isn't his swordsmanship very powerful? Why did it fall? "

Zhang Ming shook his head slightly, and said to Lin Yan: "Actually, in the cultivation world, everywhere is filled with danger. Although Senior Brother Ling Yun is one of the top experts in the Sky Cloud Martial Sect, there is still a high mountain. I heard that he met an evil cultivator on his way back, and his corpse was not even found."

"That's right. From then on, Master was very unsmiling and was very cold to all the disciples. Maybe he still hasn't recovered from his grief." A senior brother sitting beside Zhang Ming said.

Lin Yan nodded, and thought in his heart, No wonder Master was always so serious, after each lesson, he would leave quietly, and never interact too much with the disciples. So it turns out that there was actually such an old story buried in the Heavenly Star Peak.

After breakfast, Lin Yan and the rest still went to listen to their master's lecture.

In the afternoon, when they arrived at the training grounds, Meng Xinghe said to them with a serious face: "Most of you have already entered the middle stage of the Qi Refining stage, and have reached the small success stage for basic sword techniques. Today, I will teach you how to channel the Dantian Qi Mansion's spirit energy into the swordsmanship, and watch carefully."

After saying that, Meng Xinghe held onto the wood sword, the clothes around his body fluttered without any wind, his face still carried an indescribable might, and the wood sword in his right hand suddenly moved, as though it was a swimming dragon. On the tip of the sword, a three feet long Sword Light, was actually emitted, adding a sharp charm to the vermillion wood sword.

Upon seeing it, everyone was astonished. None of them dared to even blink, fearing that they would miss a single detail.

After finishing the basic sword technique demonstration, Meng Xinghe sheathed his sword and stood still, then said to the disciples in front of him: "Instill the spirit energy into the wood sword, and if it is combined well, when used well, the wood sword will also release the spirit beast, alright? You guys can experience it yourselves."

With that said, Meng Xinghe carried the wood sword in his hands and walked to the side.

The disciples gathered in groups of three to five and began to practice on the martial ring.

Lin Yan first went to the side to watch the senior brothers practice.

Senior brother Zhang Ming's root bone was considered top quality, and was one of the top few amongst the disciples of the same generation. His comprehension ability was also very high, and according to the method his master had taught him, he started to practice his basic sword techniques, mobilizing the spirit energy in his body and imbuing it into his sword. Indeed, during the process of the swordsmanship, the head of the wood sword increased by half a foot of the Sword Light.

After Senior Brother Zhang Ming let out a light cry, the wood sword in his hand slashed out and a white colored Sword Qi immediately flew out, flying straight to the horizon. After a distance of ten meters, the Sword Qi disappeared.

When all the disciples saw this, they all gathered around, asking about his technique.
