Chapter 30 Sword Spirit
Chapter 30 Sword Spirit
When the woman entered Li Guanqis room, her eyes still bore a sense of arrogance, but herexpression had softened. Li Guanqi couldnt fathom why she had suddenly become so gentle.
As he looked at the woman with a mischievous smile, he asked, Whats the matter? Have you taken a liking to me?
Upon seeing the mocking smile on Li Guanqis face, the woman felt an urge to stomp on it, but she thought about the old mans earlier threat and her current situation, so she abandoned the idea.
Taking a deep breath, she spoke softly, Lets talk.
Li Guanqi stood up and gestured for the woman to sit down. When he noticed her remaining in place, he couldnt help but say, Please, have a seat.
She finally sat down, and Li Guanqi asked, Just who are you?
The woman didnt conceal her identity and replied, I am a Sword Spirit.
The sword coffins spirit?
Seeing that the woman wasnt denying it, Li Guanqi contemplated for a moment before asking, How many swords are there inside the sword coffin?
The woman slowly extended three fingers.
Li Guanqi nodded in acknowledgment and then asked, Do you have a name?
At this question, the womans body suddenly stiffened, and she shook her head softly, saying, You arent yet qualified to know my name yet.
If you dont know what to call me, just call me Sword Spirit.
Although the woman said the same thing as before, Li Guanqi could clearly sense that she wasnt intentionally provoking him. It felt more like stating a fact.
Li Guanqi didnt pay it much mind. He was more interested in knowing what the three swords inside the sword box were.
However, it seemed like the woman could read his thoughts, as she said, With your current strength, you wouldnt be able to handle any of those swords. Perhaps when you reach the Golden Core stage, you might barely control the first sword. As for me well, you can forget about it.
Li Guanqi shrugged and, after thinking for a moment, whispered, If I let you stay by my side, besides providing you with energy, what can you offer me?
The woman pointed at herself.
Without waiting for the woman to speak, Li Guanqi muttered to himself, Hmph shes quite attractive, but I can only look? Feels like a bit of a letdown!
The Sword Spirits face turned ashen as she had never encountered someone so shameless before. In the past
Hmph! You have quite the imagination!
The Sword Spirit leaned back in her chair and said coldly, What I mean is that I will guide you in your cultivation in the future.
I already have a master, Li Guanqi replied, shrugging, feeling that the womans words were meaningless.
The Sword Spirit glanced at Li Guanqi and said with emphasis, Im different from him!
With a mere Golden Core cultivator, even if you once broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, thats all youll be!
What I can teach you is something no one else in this world can!
But to her surprise, Li Guanqi repeated the womans last sentence in a mocking tone.
He couldnt help but think to himself, is this Sword Spirit perhaps mentally impaired? Why does she seem so scatterbrained?
Nevermind You dont want this?
The Sword Spirit closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then waved her hand, creating a spiritual light in front of Li Guanqi.
Li Guanqi immediately saw that the images formed by this spiritual light were fragments of the cultivation technique he had been practicing.
However, the way this spiritual light operated was completely different from what he had been practicing! Li Guanqi was shocked because he realized that this new method of cultivation could increase his progress by a whole thirty percent! Moreover, there were many unfamiliar incantations displayed alongside it.
Raising an eyebrow, Li Guanqi exclaimed, Is this the rest of that incomplete cultivation technique?
The Sword Spirit naturally nodded and sneered, This trashy cultivation technique? Its so simple to deduce the complete scripture.
But it happens to be compatible with your Spirit Root, so theres no rush to change it before you reach the Nascent Soul stage.
Li Guanqi clicked his tongue but didnt voice his dissatisfaction. After all, what mattered most was memorizing the rest of the Nine Revolutions Thunder Scripture.
After a brief moment, the spiritual light dissipated.
The Sword Spirit glanced at the satisfied young man and asked, Do you have any more questions?
Li Guanqi, wearing a smile on his face, waved his hand and said, No questions, everythings fine, of course.
But I just wanted to ask, how much energy do you need to absorb?
The Sword Spirit rose slowly and replied in an aloof tone, I need to constantly absorb energy.
Upon hearing this, Li Guanqis instantly frowned.
He couldnt help but ask, Does that mean all the energy I cultivate in the future will have to be shared with you?
The Sword Spirit in her red dress pondered for a moment and answered, This time, it was only for my awakening. Before you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, I can do without it, but afterward, you must share.
With a sigh of relief, Li Guanqi realized that he only had two more months until the first entry assessment. If she kept absorbing his energy, his cultivation speed would no doubt decrease significantly.
However, just as the Sword Spirit was about to leave through the door, she suddenly turned her head to look at Li Guanqi.
Li Guanqi immediately tensed up. He didnt want to provoke the Sword Spirits anger at this point.
After all, she could effortlessly complete and modify Earth grade cultivation techniques!
And she was just a Sword Spirit! How powerful could that sword be?
Someday, Ill have her um, grasped in my hand!
The Sword Spirit gazed at Li Guanqi for at least three breaths before her voice became extremely solemn.
Regardless, you mustnt die!
After saying this, the woman transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the sword coffin.
Li Guanqi stood there in a daze.
What does she mean by that? What does you mustnt die mean?
From her level of cultivation, she definitely wouldnt say meaningless things like that
Could it be that she fell in love with me in such a short time because of my overwhelming presence?
Li Guanqi shook his head and narcissistically smoothed his hair.
Shortly after, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open by an elderly man.
Guanqi! Guanqi!! What happened to you?!
I heard from Gu Ran that you went to the cliff in the back mountain?
Where are you? Dont do anything reckless! If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell your master!
Creak~
Li Guanqi smiled as he pushed open the door, feeling a bit embarrassed. He said, Uh Master, theres nothing wrong, I just went to the back mountain to throw away some trash.
You little rascal! Who are you calling trash?!!
Li Guanqis face froze when he heard the voice of the Sword Spirit resounding in his mind!
Whats wrong with you? Did something go wrong with your cultivation? What happened? Why did your cultivation level drop so much?!
Quick, let your master take a look!
The old man saw Li Guanqis stunned expression and realized something was wrong. He hadnt expected Li Guanqis cultivation level to plummet directly to the first layer of Qi Refinement.
Without hesitation, the old man rushed to Li Guanqis side, infused with his own spiritual power, and began examining the young mans condition. He found that Li Guanqis situation was very strange. There were no signs of any cultivation related injuries.
Without a word, Li Nanting grabbed the young man and left, leaping into the sky. He pulled out a jade slip and spoke in a solemn tone, Elder Qin, where are you? Im coming over immediately!
Zongzhu, my disciple has encountered a problem with his cultivation. Im going to find the Head Law Enforcer. Can you come over?
Lan He, come to the Heavenly Sword Peak immediately and bring all the medicinal pills.
That night, a shocking news rocked the entire Great Xia Sword Sect.
Li Guanqi, the young prodigy who had joined the sect just a month ago, had suddenly dropped from the fifth layer of Qi Refinement down to the first layer overnight!
