Senior Sisters, I Don’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 50: Taking Advantage

Qin Muling looked around and quietly asked her third senior sister with her divine sense, "Are all the martial arts scriptures collected by the sect here?"

Qi Yalan shook her head, "Of course not. The sect's martial arts scripture 'Azure Sky Primordial Scripture' cannot be seen here. And there are also a few special scriptures that are hidden in the Grotto-Heaven secret realm where the elders cultivate. Only those who have made significant contributions to the sect or elite core disciples whose cultivation surpasses the Perfected Being Realm have the opportunity to enter and observe."

"Of course, with your status as a junior disciple, it shouldn't be a problem for you to enter and take a look."

Qin Muling nodded silently and walked over to a bookshelf, randomly picking up a jade scroll and started reading. Qi Yalan thought for a moment and also casually picked up a jade book to pass the time.

Ancient sects like Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace have already established comprehensive rules and regulations within the sect. From menial disciples, outer disciples, inner disciples, to core disciples, there are corresponding martial arts scriptures to choose from. Each level has its own specifications and cannot be exceeded.

For disciples below the inner disciple level, the selection of martial arts ranks is not very high, and there are strict limitations in terms of quantity. Once chosen, it cannot be changed at will. This is partly due to their status, but more importantly, it prevents disciples from being too greedy and disregarding their own limitations, attempting to learn multiple martial arts at the same time, resulting in mediocre results in everything.

Disciples at the Profound Comprehension Realm and below have limited lifespan and scarce resources. They also have to handle many miscellaneous tasks. They don't have much time for cultivation, so if they are distracted by too many things, they are destined to achieve nothing.

For disciples at this stage, the wisest choice is to pick one or two martial arts with moderate difficulty and high lethality to quickly improve their combat abilities. This way, they can maximize their personal safety when traveling outside.

Only when reaching the core disciple level will the sect's restrictions in this regard be lifted. After all, disciples at the Core Condensation Realm and above already have certain capital and conditions to try more choices.

Qin Muling focused on watching for a moment, and the virtual image of the green lotus leaf in his sea of consciousness flickered. The Innate Primordial Spirit Seed trembled slightly, and a faint spiritual light permeated his body, quickly brushing over the jade scroll in his hand.

After a breath, fine characters appeared on the surface of the green lotus leaf, accurately recording the content of the entire jade scroll, including the aura of the Dao rhyme on it.

Then, a faint starlight emerged from the green lotus leaf, silently merging into his sea of consciousness, quietly enhancing his spiritual soul origin. Over time, his comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth would also improve.

Qin Muling calmly lowered his head, put the jade scroll back in its original place, and picked up another one to read silently. Even Qi Yalan beside him didn't notice anything unusual.

Immersing his mind in the jade scroll in his hand, the spiritual light on the green lotus leaf reappeared, easily engraving the content of the entire jade scroll. As a price, his spiritual power was consumed slightly.

Qin Muling secretly evaluated that her total spiritual power far surpassed that of an ordinary Core Condensation Realm cultivator. Before exhausting all her spiritual power, she should be able to replicate the content and essence of over a hundred martial arts scriptures. There were still many spare pills in her spatial storage bracelet that could be used to replenish the consumption.

In other words, today she could empty the entire scripture repository, pack it up, and take it away. As for how much benefit she could ultimately gain, it would be difficult to say for a while.

The Blue Sky and Green Abyss Primordial Pivot Secret Manual, the fundamental cultivation method, has been officially mastered by Qin Muling. With it, he can perfectly integrate and comprehend all other Divine Abilities in the fields of sword cultivation, magic cultivation, body cultivation, as well as alchemy, formations, divination, talisman inscription, and other areas. He can easily grasp and excel in all of them.

Now, combined with the mysterious power of the Innate Primordial Spirit Seed, Qin Muling feels that he won't need much time to thoroughly learn all the cultivation manuals of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and integrate them.

Next, Qin Muling follows the same method and flips through all the cultivation manuals on the numerous bookshelves. Whenever his spiritual power drops by more than half, he quietly takes a pill and continues to benefit from it.

Although there are thousands of manuals to read, with the efficiency of the blue lotus leaf, when a day and night pass, all the collections of the scripture hall have been perfectly replicated in this Innate treasure. After being absorbed and refined by it, all the valuable essences, profound principles, and insights are fed back to Qin Muling, silently deepening his comprehension and understanding of the path of cultivation, laying an unprecedented solid Dao Foundation for his rapid advancement in the future.

This heaven-defying encounter is unheard of for the other elite core disciples of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. The advantage in the early stages of cultivation may not be very obvious, but the higher Qin Muling reaches in the Late Stage, the more astonishing his actual performance will be. In the end, the gap between him and other geniuses will be unparalleled, like an insurmountable chasm.

After all, the higher the realm of a cultivator, besides the accumulation of spiritual power and the control and application of Divine Abilities, the comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth and all things in the world will become increasingly important. This is also the key to whether one can further advance, break free from the constraints of mortals, and achieve Immortal Transformation and Immortal Ascension.

...

Inside the Grotto-Heaven secret realm.

This is a separate small world, independent of the Extreme Void Starry Sky, with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Only the elders of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace can reside here for cultivation.

In the magnificent hall, auspicious energy rises, radiant light shines, and rich spiritual energy fills the vast space. Hundreds of tall and beautiful thrones are arranged in a circular pattern, each occupied by a figure emitting a powerful aura.

They are the pillars of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. Even though the influence of this lineage has declined due to the calamity of ten thousand years ago, with the presence of these elders, the hostile forces in the surrounding Immortal Realms still have to be cautious and dare not go too far when dealing with the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.

At this moment, on a throne in the central area, Mu Yinghua is expressing her opinion: "...Although the situation forces us to do certain things, I still urge the elders to think twice. Qin Muling's cultivation level is still low, and he needs enough time to grow. If we let him take on certain responsibilities too early, it won't be good for him."

"At least wait until he reaches the Perfected Being Realm in the future, preferably after he overcomes the Great Tribulation of the Heart Demon. Isn't that more prudent?"

There is silence in the hall, and after a moment, a distant and ethereal voice speaks: "That makes sense. No matter how talented that child is, he is still just a young seedling. If we exhaust and consume him too much now, it won't be easy for him to recover, or even, there may be no possibility of recovery at all. Why rush like this?"

Another voice speaks: "It's not that we are impatient, but the external situation is pressing. Those hostile forces are becoming more and more restless. We don't have much time left. Relying solely on the Pinnacle Origin Limitless Soft Water Banner is not enough to ensure the safety of the sect's interests. Only by quickly retrieving the Falling Phoenix Nebula Tower can we have enough confidence and strength."

...

Chapter 2 will be released after midnight, and by the way, I'm asking for votes and collections.
