Cultivation Begins with Skill Points-Chapter 119 What Do You Want to Do?

Mei Weixuan, with a look of utter desolation, squatted in the snow drawing circles, muttering to himself through gritted teeth, not knowing what he was saying.

Zhong Lin was taken back to the room by Yin Daoyan, guarded personally by Senior Sister Gu, not allowing anyone to approach.

"Zhong Lin, since you’ve developed inner breath, now I will teach you the Upper Third Grades Qi Refining Technique."

"Thank you, Master."

Zhong Lin bowed and kowtowed, his face solemn.

Yin Daoyan continued, "This cultivation technique is called the ’Xuanwu Technique,’ the core Qi Cultivation Method of our Sword Cauldron Sect. The body is the dwelling of Divine Qi; if Divine Qi remains, the body is healthy and strong; if it disperses, life ends in death. To preserve the body, one must first settle Divine Qi. Qi is the mother of divinity, divinity is the offspring of Qi. If the Divine Artifact gathers, one achieves immortality..."

Zhong Lin’s expression was serious as he listened carefully, not daring to miss a single detail.

The ’Xuanwu Technique’ taught by Yin Daoyan is the fundamental Qi Cultivation Method of the Sword Cauldron Sect, practiced by every disciple who steps into the Upper Third Grades Realm.

This cultivation technique emphasizes intent and focus, producing righteous and peaceful energy that is vast and powerful, with exceptional restorative power, strengthening both alchemy and sword cultivation, making it a Top Grade Qi Refining Technique.

Zhong Lin sat cross-legged on the cushion, carefully listening to Yin Daoyan’s explanation of the ’Xuanwu Technique’ and the specific routes and acupoints for channeling energy.

"System."

Host: Zhong Lin

Skill: Xuanwu Technique (Beginner)...

Skill: Soul Extinguishing Fan (Full Level)...

Miscellaneous: Alchemy: Third Grade Elixir (Full Level)...

Skill Points: ∞

Seeing the newly generated skills on the System Panel, Zhong Lin felt relieved, a smile spreading across his face.

"System, allocate points for me."

With a command, the word ’Beginner’ in the brackets after ’Xuanwu Technique’ instantly changed to ’Full Level,’ and a massive wave of knowledge flooded his mind.

After a moment, Zhong Lin slowly opened his eyes, as the mysterious and profound ’Xuanwu Technique’ was now completely open to him, with no confusion left.

He took out a Great Rejuvenation Pill specifically for the Inner Breath Realm and swallowed it, adopting a position with five hearts facing the sky, placing his palms on his abdomen.

As the elixir dissolved, its immense medicinal power quickly spread throughout his body.

Zhong Lin manipulated the inner breath in his dantian to swiftly flow through his meridians, though this time it followed some specific paths different from before.

As the inner breath circulated, it gradually transformed into the unique power of the ’Xuanwu Technique,’ absorbing the medicinal power dispersed in his body during the process, growing stronger with each bit of medicine it, absorbed.

In an overview, Zhong Lin had precise control over the inner breath and had a clear understanding of the meridians it circulated through, allowing for maximum absorption of medicinal power without the slightest error. In just under an hour, he completed a Grand Circulation, finally returning the now doubled inner breath to his dantian.

However, compared to the vast ocean of his dantian, even the doubled inner breath was like a small stream, and it was uncertain how long it would take to completely fill it.

He slowly opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing through them, making the scene ahead brighter than ever before. He opened his mouth, exhaling a gust that roared like a hurricane, causing the furniture in the room to shake under this wind flow.

He channeled inner breath to his fingertip, flicked, and a white Qi force shot out through the air.

Boom!

With a clear sound, a hole was blasted through the wall in front of him, faintly revealing the white snow outside.

Zhong Lin looked at his masterpiece with excitement, feeling that the power that only those in the Upper Third Grades can wield was indeed impressive. Just a casual strike had far more destructive power than Qi-Blood, and most importantly, it was an attack from a distance.

"Master, I’ve mastered the ’Xuanwu Technique,’" Zhong Lin said excitedly.

Yin Daoyan also smiled slightly while stroking his beard, his face full of satisfaction.

"Zhong Lin, you have a transcendent aptitude, mastering anything with just a glance. But remember, the world is never short of geniuses, never be arrogant, for there’s always a mountain beyond a mountain."

Yin Daoyan advised, fearing that Zhong Lin might become arrogant due to his talents.

"Disciple will remember Master’s teachings."

Zhong Lin replied respectfully, not daring to be slack.

"But also, don’t belittle yourself. As a disciple of mine, Yin Daoyan, you should have your pride. If you do attract trouble, your Master will support you, for behind me lies the entire Sword Cauldron Sect and the Sect Master."

Yin Daoyan said dominantly, his words full of boldness.

Zhong Lin’s eyes also brightened. Who wouldn’t like to have a strong backing? In the novels of his past life, the scenes where facing escalating trouble would be annoying from the protagonist’s view, but if it were himself... that would be overwhelming.

"Don’t cause trouble, don’t fear trouble, disciple will remember."

Zhong Lin nodded firmly.

"You’ve endured hardships since childhood and understand human nature’s warmth and coldness. I won’t elaborate on these principles. You’ve learned the ’Xuanwu Technique,’ the next step is to continuously strengthen your inner breath. When your dantian is full, you can open the meridians and break through the acupoints, but don’t rush. I’ll teach you a set of ’Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Finger’ martial arts for self-defense."

"Disciple understands."

The ’Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Finger’ was the martial arts skill Yin Daoyan used yesterday to kill Wu Jingguang. It’s a finger technique, but also a sword technique.

Without using any weapons, a simple point releases sword Qi, slashing through mountains and rocks effortlessly.

It is said that at high mastery, the sword Qi sweeps across the air, swallowing heaven and earth, stirring the sun and moon, piercing through the void, and annihilating everything.

...

"Senior Sister, where is Mei Weixuan?"

Zhong Lin scanned the surroundings but didn’t hear Mei Weixuan’s voice.

Gu Yourong covered her mouth and laughed, rolling her eyes at Zhong Lin, saying, "It’s because of you, he was affected, went back to practice."

Zhong Lin also laughed heartily, "If he doesn’t want to call me senior brother, then don’t. He promised to take me to the Xiangxiang Pavilion, but now he’s gone, boring."

"Junior Brother, is the Xiangxiang Pavilion fun?"

Gu Yourong’s voice came quietly.

Zhong Lin shuddered at the words, sitting up straight, "I don’t know, never been there. It’s Mei Weixuan who always wants to take me."

"Hmph! Stay away from him in the future. The women at Xiangxiang Pavilion are filthy. If you can’t resist, just let your maids resolve it for you, don’t go to any brothels." Gu Yourong huffed coldly.

"Senior Sister is right, but the maids in my room are just common powder beauties, how can they compare to the oiran of the Xiangxiang Pavilion, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless there’s a beauty like Senior Sister accompanying me."

As he spoke, Zhong Lin shuffled closer, almost standing intimately next to Gu Yourong.

Gu Yourong was startled by Zhong Lin’s sudden proximity, especially when his hot breath sprayed onto her cheek, causing her heart to race. Under the rush of blood, a wisp of white mist even rose from her head.

"You... what do you want to do?"

"I want to."
