Ch- 4. Scripture Pavilion, Mysterious Elder.
....
Mo Yan breathed sigh of relief. He felt like he would have been crushed, under the pressure.
Looking at the entrance of the Scripture pavilion, Mo Yan and group walked inside carefully looking around.
As they came the doors shut down. Their eyes filled with glitters, they looked at the cultivation method and martial arts manuals. Without wasting time everyone scattered off and started searching for techniques ....
Having such a big supply of martial arts gave Mo Yan endless excitement. He couldn't hold in his happiness and laughed with his head raised. Quite a period of time passed until he calmed down.
In Spirit Cloud continent, a Low ranked martial arts skill was worth thousands of Spirit stones and the money Mo Yan received per month was only 10 spirit stones.
Even the low ranked skills are valued in the Spirit Cloud continent. The various sects strictly controls even the low ranked skills and the various Cultivation families and powers will buy them instantly at a sky high price.
So the commoners are unable to get any skills worth mentioning.
Of course he couldn't take the sects skills out and sell them, if he did, he would get punished, they would destroy his cultivation and then kick him out of the sect.
Mo Yan took a look atleast hundred books out from the martial arts library; most of them were Rank-1 and all of them had at least a past person train it, so others could use their past experience.
However, to choose a few cultivation and martial art skills from these books wasn't easy.
It was good that all of these books were fully imprinted in his mind, because he only needed one thought to compare them against one another and choose the one most suitable for him.
But the system has surprised him again when he heard the system notification...
[Ding!... The host has every element related affinity and has to cultivate a more suitable cultivation technique to maximize the effect..]
[Ding!... Collect and extract all the elements related cultivation techniques at the same time to obtain a suitable cultivation technique.]
1. Fire Element Technique: None.
2. Water Element Technique: None.
3. Earth Element Technique: None.
4. Wood Element Technique: None.
5. Wind Element Technique: None.
6. Metal Element Technique: None.
...
Mo Yan was dumbstruck, he felt like jumping in joy. This is the most effective and efficient way to get a personal cultivation technique that is only readymade for him.
He rummaged through the shelfs and found some Rank- 2 Techniques and found water and wind related techniques.
As he was checking constantly for the other techniques he was blocked by a tall person. His shadow covered him, making him look small and tiny infront of this person.
"Hey trash, why are you standing in my way... do you want to be crippled or what!.."
Mo Yan looked at the person standing infront like a iron pole. He looked fierce and bulky with strong muscles.
If there was another person they would have feared him, but unfortunately for this guy he has met him.
Mo Yan didn't want to have trouble with this person and moved aside giving way and avoid conflict.
"Humh... atleast you know what's good for you.... don't let me see you again.. scram."
Mo Yan walked away, he didn't think much of this person and checked his attributes list...
[Name: Long Jun]
[Cultivation: 4th Level Qi Refinement Realm]
[Cultivation potential: Mid]
[Spiritual Root: Mortal (High)]
[Cultivation Techniques: Pure jade Art]
[Martial technique: Raging Bull fist (Rank- 1), Rock shattering palm (Rank- 2)]
[Elemental Affinity: Earth]
.....
So this person's name is long Jun... it seems he has been a outer sect disciple for a long time and his potential is also a lot inferior to him.
Mo Yan shook his head, he again hurriedly went to search for techniques. He has no more than Two hours left to choose, so he hurriedly searched from one corner to the other.
After one hour....
"Hu~"
Mo Yan breathed in some air, he looked at the techniques he searched and immediately performed extract...
[Ding!... detected all six cultivation techniques.... starting extraction...]
[Ding!... Congratulations host for gaining 'Six Spritual paths Cultivation Technique' (Volume- 1).]
[Ding!..The first volume can be cultivated to the peak of Qi refinement realm. To gain the remaining volumes the host much extract more techniques.]
A single Cultivation technique could increase his strength; with the combination of many Cultivation techniques of different elements, it could increase his cultivation. And his Spiritual power would be much more potent and powerful than ordinary Cultivators.
This technique can be cultivated to the peak of Qi- refinement realm, which is more than enough for the time being.
He quickly checked the discription of the Cultivation technique....
[Six Spritual Paths Cultivation Technique: This a heaven defying Cultivation technique. It contains top- notch fire, water, wind, earth, wood, metal, cultivation potentials. It increases Providence to a certain extent.]
[System Note: When cultivated to a high level, there is a chance to gain Six Spritual Paths physique.]
Mo Yan was surprised and his mouth curled up unable to hide his joy.
Mo Yan only used half an hour to choose a Martial skill named 'Iron Dragon Fist' from the hundred of books.
He found this book at the corner collecting dust. It seems no one has chose to cultivate this skill in ages.
When he chose this he was surprised to find that it is most hardest and required high Comprehension to cultivate this skill. But it is incomplete Rank- 3 skill.
Generally Rank- 3 skills are stored in the upper floors, but someone thought that it would be a waste and left it in the first floor.
The technique is incomplete, but from the description alone Mo Yan can guess that it is atleast higher than Rank-3 skill.
He immediately went to the front desk near the door and tried to find the Elder.
The middle aged man soon came of thin air behind Mo Yan.
"Kid, Did you choose your Cultivation technique and Martial skill, show me, i will register them for you."
He was startled, when turned around he found an old man with a face full of wrinkles. Mo Yan didn't delay and gave him some random cultivation technique and the Iron Dragon fist skill to the elder.
The elder seems surprised to see the Martial skill book. He looked up and down scrutinising him and asked "Kid, are you sure this is the one you chose."
Seeing the surprised expression, Mo Yan firmly nodded his head. He quickly registered technique and turned to leave.
He narrowed his eyes and checked the attribute list of this elder....
[Name: Gu Tian]
[Cultivation: mid- stage Nascent Soul Realm]
[Cultivation potential: High]
[Spiritual Root: Heaven (low)]
[Cultivation Technique: ????]
[Martial techniques: ????]
[Elemental Affinity: Wind, Earth]
.....
This is the first time that Mo Yan saw someone that has high potential than him.
[Ding!.. Does host wants to extract?]
'Yes!'
He felt a warm flow of energy coursing through his body. It felt great and lasted for a minute. He clenched his fist and truly admired such powerful figures.
At first, Mo Yan was greatly frightened. This seemingly weak looking old man has such great strength and he seemed to be guarding this place.
Even in the entire Great Yan, a soul Refinement Realm is revered and is enough to sweep out an entire sect with a single hand.
To think that the Heavenly Sword Sect has such a figure that is close to becoming one. This is enough to show it's strong foundation. No wonder, the sect has stood strong against the Demonic sects attacks.
Mo Yan shook his head and hurriedly walked away....
Seeing the back that has disappeared into the distance, The Elder smiled and muttered something and disappeared...
The Iron Dragon Fists was one of the Rank- 5 fist technique manual and the damage dealt by it was high. It compressed one's strength all into one and the power was so incredible that it wasn't weaker than some of the high ranked martial arts.
Mo Yan has high expectations for Iron Dragon Fists because it increased one's body strength.
Strong body strength was the foundation and minimum requirements for "Martial Artists."
Martial techniques was something that made someone a true martial artist.
A smile curled up on his face.
After choosing the martial arts skills, he came back to the valley near the mountains and chose a house to stay. He selected a house in a remote location filled with more Spiritual Qi.
Along the way he saw Wu Hong, he came way quickly than him and has chose the house right next to Mo Yan.
Mo Yan sat down and quickly started cultivating.
He sat in a lotus position and the Method for the Seven Spritual paths Cultivation Technique has appeared. He followed the instructions and started to circulate his Qi around his body.
He performed breathing exercises, visible whirlwinds appeared around him.
There are several tiny colorful dots gathering around his body. The dots were sucked away instantly as they got closer.
Clearly they are elements present in the surroundings, it is only a matter of time for him to change his nature of Qi and build a solid foundation.
He soon fell into a trance.
He can feel the Qi in his body filled with elemental Qi evenly. The process continued till five hours untill he reached level-1 of Qi Refinement Realm.
It seems that the Qi in his body has been refined to a high degree that it became very heavy and potent.
Even if his cultivation regressed, he can surely say that no Level- 2 Qi Refinement Realm practitioner is no match for Mo Yan, and he can even contend with peak stage Level- 2 Qi Refinement Realm practitioner.
Mo Yan relaxed and composed his breathing and again started his Cultivation.
