I Have A Special Cultivation Talent

Chapter 31: Choosing the Celestial Scripture

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Holding the token, Chen Jingzhai approached the cluster of palaces. A beam of light shot out of the token, enveloping his entire body. Chen Jingzhai transformed into a streak of light and landed on the tallest building.

The celestial clans’ tactics were miraculous and extraordinary. Chen Jingzhai was a bit shocked, but he did not show it. After his feet landed on the ground, the light dispersed and a figure appeared right before him.

“Oh, it’s the new direct disciple of Hongluan Peak. I am the elder of the library. You may call me Zhang Shen.”

His voice was flat and his features ancient. Zhang Shen turned away as soon as he finished speaking.

“Elder Zhang, I came to choose a technique according to my headmaster’s older brother’s orders.” Chen Jingzhai spoke out.

“Do not call me ‘Elder.’ You’re even calling your headmaster ‘older brother,’ so you can call me ‘older brother’ as well! I know that you are here to pick a technique. Just follow me!” Zhang Shen spoke without much emotion as he climbed the steps. Chen Jingzhai could only follow him up.

“The library is a very important part of the Luo Sheng Sword School. All the peaks contribute their books, so there are many different techniques and spells.”

“The bottom three levels are the heterodox clans, while the middle three levels are the celestial clans and orthodox clans. The top three levels contain the heritage of Sanren and Daozun. The tenth level records the basic techniques of the peaks and hidden branches.”

“They were all taken from the Luotian Celestial Scripture. Besides the sword scripture, the Tianluo Sword Scripture is not included. The rest of the Luotian Celestial Scripture is not here either.”

The Luo Sheng Sword School’s heritage already spanned more than 5,000 years and had accumulated a rich collection of books in that time. Other than techniques and spells, they also had other novels, records, and more. Many of the books were the same as those other celestial clans had. This was especially the case for novels that did not have much value.

These books were stored here solely for the disciples to broaden their horizons. It was also to enrich the library and add to the clan’s heritage. After all, there were many opportunities in the cultivation world. No one knew what might be useful for someone. Some disciples received maps of hidden treasures and could find clues in the ancient books.

“Older Brother Zhang, this is my first time here. Do you have any advice for me?” Chen Jingzhai asked.

“What did your headmaster say?” Zhang Shen replied.

“He told me to choose three techniques at most,” Chen Jingzhai said. “I shouldn’t be greedy.”

“That is true.” Zhang Shen nodded. “You have celestial bones and have received enlightenment physically. You have top qualifications. If you are greedy, then you will definitely use up your potential. You should have one main and two side techniques.”

“Older Brother, please explain in more detail!” Chen Jingzhai pleaded earnestly, putting his hands together.

“Most peaks of the Luo Sheng Sword School cultivate techniques disassembled from the Luotian Celestial Scripture. These disassembled techniques all have their unique points and contain more or less of the Luotian Celestial Scripture’s basic conception.

“Among the celestial clans, the different techniques are scripture, code, record, technique, and skill. The clan also follows this organization. Of the celestial scriptures, the sky scripture is the highest, followed by the celestial code and secret code.

“Your headmaster allowed you to choose three techniques, so you must consider your situation, including your qualifications, interests, what is suitable for your personality, and more. Choose one as your main technique and two as your supporting techniques.

“Do not worry about whether you can cultivate it or not, because techniques disassembled from the celestial scripture all have similarities. If you cultivate the main and supporting ones, they will stabilize your foundations. This is also the secret of our clan,” Zhang Shen explained in detail. He did not waste any words or hold back any information.

Chen Jingzhai bowed silently. Then he went upstairs, pondering over what had been said. Older Brother Zhang had explained everything plainly. When he said that there were differences in how much of the basic conception was in the scripture, it was clear that he meant the sky scriptures had more than the celestial records and secret records. Thus, he would cultivate a sky scripture as his main technique.

As for the two auxiliary techniques, he could choose sky scriptures, but he could also choose a celestial and secret record. It depended on his personal compatibility. When he cultivated the three together, they should have had wonderful effects rather than conflicts.

So, what if he chose a sky scripture? Having figured this out, Chen Jingzhai felt much more relaxed inside. He could not hold back his joyous mood anymore.

There were heavy restrictions in the library. Chen Jingzhai followed Older Brother Zhang Shen and walked past each level, but he could not see what was inside each level.

When they reached the tenth level, Senior Brother Zhang Shen stopped walking. He had Chen Jingzhai take out the token. Following his orders, Chen Jingzhai went to the door, holding the token in his hand, and calmly entered the tenth level. This level was extremely spacious. It was almost as big as his courtyard.

There were only a dozen steles in the empty room. The sky scriptures were recorded on the steles. The shape and script on them were different for each stele. Some of the scripts were graceful and floating, some were edgy, and some were bold. Others seemed very ordinary.

Chen Jingzhai took a deep breath and went to the steles of the peaks first.

Sky Scripture of the Yanyang Branch: Blazing Sun Grand Technique.

Sky Scripture of the Yunchao Branch: Up-Down Grand Technique.

Sky Scripture of the Lijian Branch: Li River Sky Scripture.

Sky Scripture of the Tiangong Branch: Thousand-Hammers and Twists Sky Scripture.

Sky Scripture of the Linyao Branch: Emperor Qing About the World Sky Scripture.

Sky Scripture of the Daoxuan Branch: Reversed Yin Yang Grand Technique.

Chen Jingzhai looked at them all and found that the steles carrying the sky scriptures were all extremely heavy. They seemed to be connected to the peaks. He could not lift them at all—he could not even make them budge.

Other than the six mountain peaks, the Luo Sheng Sword School had nine hidden branches too. Three of those were sword branches, including the Golden Jade Sword Sect of Sage Lu. Unfortunately, these three sword branches did not leave any steles here.

Fortunately, however, Chen Jingzhai did not have any special feelings or interests in swordsmanship. For him, becoming immortal was the most basic pursuit. There was no difference between sorcery and swordsmanship. There were 12 steles from the mountain peaks, while there were only six steles from the hidden branches.

Chen Jingzhai did not believe that there were only six hidden branches. It was clear that some hidden branches did not send their steles here. This included Hongluan Peak. Otherwise, he would not have been able to see the broken stele in Xuanming Cave. Chen Jingzhai sat down and started reading the sky scriptures carefully.

[Technique: Blazing Sun Grand Technique]

[Advantages: gathers the blazing sun, cultivates both the inside and outside together, has aggressive spiritual power.]

[Disadvantages: spirit roots other than the fire spirit root will be weak, unable to cultivate other elements, will burn the blood in your body, must take pills to recuperate.]

[Flaw: Furnace Cultivation Technique, Volcano Cultivation Technique, Spiritual Fire Cultivation Technique.]

His special talent was successfully activated. This time, Chen Jingzhai did not even read everything on the stele. He only saw the Meditation Plane and the talent displayed everything for him.

After Chen Jingzhai saw the advantages and disadvantages, he instantly furrowed his brows.

He was actually leaning toward the Blazing Sun Grand Technique.

When he was in the Aspirant Cultivators Academy, he had heard some stories about the Luo Sheng Sword School. The swordsmen of the Luo Sheng Sword School were all crazy and strange, while the fire cultivators were powerful and wild. Among the fire cultivators, the Luo Sheng Sword School was in the top three. Their fire techniques were known to be very domineering.

Chen Jingzhai had a fire spirit root. It just could not compare to his earth spirit root. He did not expect that he would be unable to cultivate other techniques if he chose the Blazing Sun Grand Technique.

This made Chen Jingzhai a bit disappointed, but he quickly eliminated it. He had reshaped his spirit root now and formed the celestial bones, so it was possible to cultivate the Blazing Sun Grand Technique.

However, only cultivating this would be a waste of his talent. Plus, his headmaster’s senior brother did not give him mindless instructions, so it must be better for him to cultivate more than one.

It was a pity that Chen Jingzhai had to give up on cultivating the Blazing Sun Grand Technique.
