Chapter 5: Qingyi will never throw it away for her entire life!
After Xiao Mo publicly announced his intention to cultivate, even after recovering from his illness, he could openly continue to be a homebody who rarely left the house.
Sitting cross-legged on his bed, Xiao Mo, under the guise of entering meditation for cultivation, entered the Book of Hundred Lifetimes with his consciousness.
Every five days, Xiao Mo would use the Continuing Heaven Skill to help Jiang Qingyi regulate her breath and clear her Spiritual Veins.
Furthermore, Xiao Mo used his contribution points to purchase various precious medicinal herbs, and according to the prescription written in the Continuing Heaven Skill, he personally brewed the medicine for Jiang Qingyi to drink.
As for Xiao Mo's lifespan.
Xiao Mo didn't care.
The price of the Continuing Heaven Skill is the lifespan of "Xiao Mo"; what does that have to do with me, Xiao Mo?
Anyway, he only had fifty years to experience life.
According to his current physical condition, he could at least last for seventy years.
That was enough time.
Under Xiao Mo's care, Jiang Qingyi made rapid progress.
It only took Jiang Qingyi one month to advance from the first level of Qi Condensation to the second level.
Although some Geniuses can go from the first level of Qi Condensation to the fourth or even fifth level in one month.
Compared to these Geniuses, Jiang Qingyi's talent was indeed not impressive.
But Xiao Mo was already satisfied.
It was good enough that Jiang Qingyi could cultivate; why ask for more?
Unconsciously, several more days passed in the real world.
Xiao Mo indulged in cultivation every day, ignoring state affairs, appearing completely disengaged, and not listening to the ministers' remonstrances.
Anyway, besides eating, Xiao Mo would enter the Book of Hundred Lifetimes to teach his Disciple.
In the blink of an eye, a total of ten months passed in the Book of Hundred Lifetimes.
During this nearly one-year period, Jiang Qingyi grew rapidly in height.
Jiang Qingyi was only fifteen years old, but she was already almost one meter sixty tall.
But then again.
This period was precisely when girls developed and grew.
Moreover, after arriving at Dragon Spring Sword Sect, Jiang Qingyi had no worries about food and clothing, could eat her fill every day, had meat with every meal, and her nutrition gradually caught up, so she naturally grew faster.
At this time, Jiang Qingyi was growing like a willow tree sprouting new branches.
She had the feeling of a "neighbor girl who has just grown up."
She looked like a young woman now.
Another ten days passed.
On this morning, as Jiang Qingyi retracted her sword stance, the aura emanating from her body rose another level.
"Not bad."
Xiao Mo praised the young girl.
His Disciple had already entered the seventh level of Qi Condensation.
Hearing her Master's voice, Jiang Qingyi turned her head and ran over joyfully: "Master, you're awake."
"The sun is already high, how could I, your Master, not be awake?" Xiao Mo smiled and gently patted Jiang Qingyi's head, "Qingyi, your cultivation speed is getting faster and faster; it seems your efforts haven't been in vain."
"It's all because Master taught so well."
"It's the result of your hard work… cough cough cough cough…" Xiao Mo coughed violently.
"Master, are you alright?" Jiang Qingyi looked at her Master worriedly.
"I'm fine." Xiao Mo waved his hand, "It's just that I had a mishap during cultivation recently, injuring my body a bit, but I'll be fine after a period of recuperation."
"Really?" Jiang Qingyi asked worriedly.
This was her first time seeing her Master ill.
"Of course, it's true." Xiao Mo changed the subject, "There's less than three months left until the New Blood Tournament; are you ready?"
"Replying to Master, Disciple is already ready; I will definitely not disgrace you, Master!" Jiang Qingyi said seriously.
"Just perform well and leave no regrets."
Saying that, Xiao Mo took out a sword box from his Storage Pouch and handed it to Jiang Qingyi.
"Master, this is?" Jiang Qingyi asked curiously.
"This is a gift for you. Open it and see."
Jiang Qingyi opened the box.
Inside lay a long sword.
"What a beautiful sword."
Jiang Qingyi exclaimed.
The long sword was carved from profound frost, its blade transparent, with lotus patterns carved upon it.
"This sword is named profound frost; it's a fourth-grade Magical Artifact, not particularly precious, but it is quite beautiful and suits you. How about it, do you like it?"
"Mm! I like it!" Jiang Qingyi nodded vigorously, "Thank you, Master, Qingyi will definitely take good care of this sword!"
Xiao Mo smiled: "This is just a fourth-grade Magical Artifact; it's just a bit good-looking. When your Realmis higher in the future, you'll throw it away."
"No, Master!" Qingyi hugged the sword box tightly and shook her head vigorously, "Qingyi will definitely keep it well; she will never throw it away for her entire life!"
...
Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
As the number one Sword Sect in the Ten Thousand Laws World.
The Disciples who could enter Ten Thousand Swords Sect all had high cultivation talents.
Even an Outer Sect Disciple of Ten Thousand Swords Sect would have the talent of an Inner Sect Disciple in other Sects.
And today was the grand ceremony for all newly admitted Disciples of Ten Thousand Swords Sect—the New Blood Tournament!
The New Blood Tournament originated from a Sectthat had long since disappeared—the Dragon Spring Sword Sect.
Compared to the former Dragon Spring Sword Sect, the rules of Ten Thousand Swords Sect's New Blood Tournament were no different; both adopted the form of drawing lots for combat.
The top three in the New Blood Tournament would receive generous rewards, including but not limited to Cultivation Techniques and Magical Artifacts.
Furthermore, the top-ranked individual in each New Blood Tournament would receive a Magic Treasurepersonally bestowed by the Sect Master.
For example, this time, the Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Swords Sect took out a first-grade Magical Artifact as a prize!
This filled every Disciple with motivation.
Early this morning, all Disciples participating in the New Blood Tournament and the various Elders and Peak Masters gathered on a small plain.
On the first day of every New Blood Tournament, the Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Swords Sect would appear to announce the start of the tournament.
So, every young Disciple was eagerly looking forward to the Sect Master's appearance.
The Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Swords Sect was simply too legendary.
For all Sword Cultivators in the world, the Sect Master of Ten Thousand Swords Sect was like a divine existence.
And the Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Swords Sectusually appeared and disappeared unpredictably, so even high-ranking members within the Sect rarely saw her.
Therefore, for many, this was one of the few opportunities in their lives to see the Sect Master.
As soon as the hour of Chen arrived.
A sword shadow streaked across the sky, landing directly at the very front of the plain.
The woman stood on the high platform, and the gentle breeze ruffled her long skirt.
At the woman's waist hung a white, transparent long sword, as if forged from profound frost.
"Is that sword the Sect Master is wearing our Ten Thousand Swords Sect's Immortal Sword White Haze?" On the plain, a female Disciple asked her friend beside her.
"No, the Sect Master rarely uses White Haze. This sword is called profound frost; it's only a fourth-grade Magical Artifact." Her friend explained.
"A fourth-grade Magical Artifact?" The female Disciple was stunned for a moment, "Is there anything special about this fourth-grade Magical Artifact? How can a fourth-grade Magical Artifact be worthy of the Sect Master's status?"
"I don't know about that."
Her friend also shook her head.
"Perhaps this fourth-grade Magical Artifact holds some special significance for the Sect Master."
