Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

This was common knowledge throughout the entire Phantom Spirit Sect.

From the reaction of Night Light Pavilion, it wasn\'t a secret across the Great Zhou, nor in the surrounding countries.

Yet now, the information that came from the panel was completely different.

Chu Zheng would not doubt the panel, and he equally didn\'t believe that the Phantom Spirit Sect had erred in assessing Song Lingqing\'s Immortal Bone.

Without much consideration, Chu Zheng could assert that the concealment was a unilateral intention of the Phantom Spirit Sect.

In light of this, many things that were previously unclear suddenly made sense.

To give up on a disciple with a middle-quality Immortal Bone would be somewhat painful for the Phantom Spirit Sect, but not unacceptable. As for the Song Family, they were naturally expendable.

The difference between middle-quality and high-quality Immortal Bone might be only one level, but the actual gap was as vast as heaven and earth.

Take Zhao Tingxian for example; he entered the Divine Infant Realm at two hundred years old and became a Saint Heir of the Holy Land.

Based on this speed, having joined for over three years, Song Lingqing should have reached at least the Spirit Spring Realm Perfection, even preparing to enter the Entry Path, rather than just recently breaking into the Spirit Spring.

Moreover, for the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects, they only sent an Inner Sect Elder as her escort, clearly not taking it too seriously.

As for why the Phantom Spirit Sect wanted to hype up Song Lingqing, the hidden reasons behind it were worth pondering.

Song Lingqing was unaware of the tumultuous thoughts swirling in Chu Zheng\'s mind. Just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by Chu Zheng:

"Have you been injured twice before?"

After pondering for a moment, Song Lingqing gave a somewhat uncertain response, "I remember only once, and then I lost consciousness."

A glint of realization flashed through Chu Zheng\'s eyes. Perhaps, Song Lingqing\'s Immortal Bone wasn\'t shattered by an outsider.

The panel showed that Song Lingqing\'s Immortal Bone had suffered two heavy blows.

This second time might have been after her return to the Phantom Spirit Sect.

Chu Zheng did not voice his speculation but turned to entrust Song Lingqing with another matter:

"If you have time, could you help me borrow some ancient books from the Scripture Pavilion? I\'d prefer a cultivation technique. The cost in Spirit Stones is negotiable, and I\'ll reimburse you later."

All his current thoughts lacked evidence for support; they were merely his subjective conjectures, likely to have some biases.

Song Lingqing was still alive and able to continue her cultivation. For the short term, maintaining the status quo was the safest option. As for the rest, that could be considered later.

"I\'ll bring them to you tomorrow."

Song Lingqing did not ask further, mounted the Cloud Wing Tiger, and rose through the clouds, disappearing into the sky.

...

...

The Scripture Pavilion of the Phantom Spirit Sect was divided into two locations, one in the Outer Sect, the other in the Inner Sect.

The Outer Sect\'s Scripture Pavilion mostly contained low-level Cultivation Techniques, secret techniques, rudimentary formation Fu Lu arts, as well as some basic alchemy and artifact refining methods.

Song Lingqing did not consider this place and directly rode the Cloud Wing Tiger to the Inner Sect.

The Inner Sect\'s Scripture Pavilion was heavily guarded. The Phantom Spirit Sect\'s heritage of ten thousand years was mostly stored here, with even a Divine Infant Realm Supreme Elder stationed here long-term.

After settling the Cloud Wing Tiger, Song Lingqing flashed her true inheritor Jade Token and stepped straight into the Scripture Pavilion.

The Scripture Pavilion had six floors. Inheritors had unrestricted access to the fifth floor and below, while only the Sect Leader and Supreme Elders had the authority to open the topmost floor.

"Isn\'t this Sister Song? It\'s been a few days, how come you look even more haggard?"

Just as she entered the Scripture Pavilion, a frivolous greeting suddenly came from not far away, "You\'ve just been heavily injured—you should take more care of yourself and move less."

Song Lingqing\'s breathing became slightly irregular, her lips tightened, and she glanced sideways without saying a word.

Standing not far were three people, all dressed as Inner Sect Disciples, two males and one female, all about twenty years of age, with identical sneers on their faces.

Song Lingqing clenched her hand tighter, fell silent for a moment, turned around, bypassed the three people\'s location, and continued forward.

He\'d hardly taken two steps when three figures blocked his path again.

"Sister Song, why are you ignoring us? Could it be that you\'ve hit your head and no longer recognize us?"

The woman among the three covered her mouth with a light chuckle, her laughter not reaching her eyes, which were filled with coldness.

"Until my master speaks from his retreat, I remain the true successor. Get out of my way!"

Song Lingqing\'s expression was icy, a hint of fierce energy flickering in her eyes, "Keep blocking my way and picking fights, disobeying your senior, and I will go straight to the Punishment Hall and ask for our sect\'s law to deal with you severely."

"Why bother with all that trouble."

The man leading the trio\'s complexion turned frosty as he said coldly, "Why not settle this on the life-and-death stage right now and reveal our true capabilities?"

"Enough!"

A stern shout erupted like thunder from a clear sky, and in the next instant, an old man with silver hair wearing a long robe appeared in front of Song Lingqing.

Seeing the Supreme, the three Inner Sect Disciples\' faces changed as they bent in salute.

The old man looked down at Song Lingqing, his gaze warm, "You go in first."

"Thank you, Supreme."

Song Lingqing bowed her thanks and slowly walked towards the second floor.

Once her figure had disappeared down the corridor, the old man lowered his gaze back to the three, saying dispassionately,

"The three of you will go to the Punishment Hall and receive a hundred lashes each, as well as surrender three hundred Contribution Points. Should you offend again, you\'ll be demoted to the Outer Sect."

"Thank you, Supreme."

The trio, not daring to say anything further, saluted and left the Scripture Pavilion in succession.

"And you."

The old man suddenly turned, his gaze turning slightly cold as he looked to one side, "If you use such inferior tactics to test my reactions again, you\'ll spend a few years in the Outer Sect too."

From the corner, a young man raised his head from in front of the ancient books, his silent chuckle barely there, as he stood up and bowed,

"This disciple acknowledges his mistake."

...

...

The next morning, in the Spirit Beast Garden.

Chu Zheng bathed in the early rising morning glow, slowly opened his eyes, and exhaled a breath of turbid Qi, feeling somewhat impatient as he pulled up his panel.

[Name: Chu Zheng]

[Cultivation: First Order Initial Stage]

[Cultivation Technique: Great Circulatory Qi Guideline (Sixth Order/Incomplete), Dragon Tiger Body (Fourth Order/Incomplete)…]

[Divine Skills: Xuan Tian Seal Third Form (Fifth Order/Incomplete), Transmute Stone to Gold (First Order), Invisibility Technique (First Order)]

[Repair Master: First Order (325/1000)]

[Remaining Repairs for the Day: 5]

[Current Repair Capabilities: Xuan Tian Seal Third Form (295/300), Great Circulatory Qi Guideline - Upper Volume (0/1000), Dragon Tiger Body - Middle Volume (0/500), Condensing Space Bracelet (0/1000)]

After several days, the Xuan Tian Seal was finally about to be fully repaired.

Collecting himself, Chu Zheng placed all his remaining repairs on the Xuan Tian Seal.

An image instantly emerged in Chu Zheng\'s mind, and amidst the vagueness, he could only make out a corner of it.

[Xuan Tian Seal Third Form: A Martial Path masterpiece, using Qi and blood at a cost to temporarily increase one\'s combat power threefold.]

As Chu Zheng had anticipated, the Xuan Tian Seal was indeed a Divine Skill that could boost his combat power in a short period.

Moreover, in the method of operating the Xuan Tian Seal, a part of the Qi cultivation route was incorporated.
