Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1696: Chapter 894: Emergence from Seclusion (2)

Li Yuanba actually had many questions he wanted to ask, but he also knew Jian Wuwei couldn’t say much; asking more would only make Jian Wuwei embarrassed.

”Master, I want to look at some books of the peak Great Cultivators!” Li Yuanba continued.

”Although your cultivation isn’t there yet, I don’t think it will be a problem. I’ll help you apply and get back to you as soon as possible!” Jian Wuwei didn’t mind his request and waved with a smile.

Li Yuanba was his disciple and also a direct descendant of the Jian Family. Given Li Yuanba’s cultivation speed, accessing these texts was only a matter of time.

”I also want to help you apply for books on advancing to Great Power, so you can know the challenges in advance and prepare early!” Jian Wuwei thought for a moment and added.

Though Li Yuanba hadn’t been a Great Cultivator for long, considering his alchemy skills, he wouldn’t lack other resources.

So Li Yuanba could start accumulating resources for advancing to Great Power, otherwise, even if treasures were before him, he might remain unaware.

”Thank you, Master!” Li Yuanba sincerely expressed his gratitude, feeling his master’s care.

”Why talk about this, you’ve been in seclusion for so long, my Spiritual Tea is long gone, do you still have any?” Jian Wuwei asked with a smile.

”If others asked, I’d say no, but for you, Master, I have some!” Li Yuanba also replied with a smile.

He took out a jade box full of Fourth Grade Spiritual Tea and handed it to Jian Wuwei, who was beaming with joy.

Jian Wuwei, now in charge of part of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s power, found his supply of Fourth Grade Spiritual Tea heavily depleted.

Especially some Sword Cultivators within the Pavilion, knowing it was hand-fried by Li Shiming, would always find an excuse to come over and share his Fourth Grade Spiritual Tea.

Of course, this was a good thing, as maintaining close relationships with numerous Sword Cultivators greatly helped him in running the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Two days later, Jian Wuwei completed the book access arrangements for Li Yuanba, and Li Yuanba’s Identity Jade Disc had the authority to enter a library room.

After gaining entry, Li Yuanba immediately headed to the Book Collection Pavilion without delay.

The Book Collection Pavilion was located in a building near the center of the Sword Cave Heaven, close to Sword Elder’s residence and protected by formations, making it the most secure area.

Upon reaching the building, Li Yuanba felt scanned by the formations and a consciousness swept over his body.

”Yuanba, you may view the books, but don’t consider advancing to Great Power prematurely. Focus on resources. Additionally, the Pavilion will provide part of the resources for your advancement!” Sword Elder’s voice sounded in his ear.

”I understand!” Li Yuanba bowed to the void.

Sword Elder said nothing more, and a portal appeared before him.

Li Yuanba was slightly surprised; such tight security meant this Book Collection Pavilion was indeed the most important one in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

From Sword Elder’s reminder, he could infer some situations.

Just having become a Great Cultivator, reading about peak Great Cultivator practices could cause unknown effects.

However, Li Yuanba had his considerations. Despite his current insufficient cultivation, his comprehension of Sword Intent had reached the level of a Peak Sword Cultivator.

From a practical standpoint, due to his prior combat experience, his opponents were often those beyond his cultivation realm, allowing him to hone his Sword Intent to perfection.

Theoretically, the IBMz15, the natal treasure of his true body Li Shiming, was almost continuously researching and analyzing the ’Sword Intent Stele,’ and his true body’s higher cultivation realm allowed the shared understanding of Sword Intent to far surpass what he could comprehend at his level.

Going through the portal, he appeared in a small space.

This seemed to be the interior of a small space fragment, different from a Grotto Heaven in that the rules within the space fragment matched those outside, ensuring the preservation of the texts wouldn’t be affected by rule issues.

Space instability or collapse was impossible.

The space measured one hundred meters in both length and width, smaller than a space item but capable of supporting life’s free entry and exit, with high stability and secrecy as a special space.

Within the space, bubbles floated, each containing a jade scroll, mainly dark gold, indicating top-level jade scrolls.

There were two hundred and sixty bubbles, meaning only two hundred and sixty jade scrolls were present.

This quantity was significantly lesser compared to the open Book Collection Pavilion for ordinary Great Cultivators in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, which housed tens of thousands of books.

Li Yuanba reached for a bubble but couldn’t insert his hand into it.

However, when his Divine Sense touched the bubble, he perceived the jade scroll’s content.

Li Yuanba immediately activated the IBMz15 of his true body Li Shiming; the IBMz15 allocated some computational power to start recording the jade scroll’s content.

He didn’t know if cultivators were monitoring the place, although Sword Elder was most likely watching.

Even if Sword Elder was observing, he wouldn’t notice anything; hence, he carefully perused the jade scroll’s content as any ordinary cultivator would, rather than quickly skimming and setting it aside as before.

The text in his hands detailed the process of constructing a Grotto Heaven, a topic the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ also touched on but not as extensively.

The jade scroll documented the step-by-step Grotto Heaven construction from a Sword Cultivator’s perspective, likely a personal account of a predecessor’s experience.

At the text’s end, it appeared this predecessor succeeded in advancing to a Half-step Great Power, eventually becoming a true Great Power.

Lifting his hand from the bubble, Li Yuanba exhaled a long breath, understanding the true difficulty of constructing a Grotto Heaven through this predecessor’s journey.

For a Great Power, the Grotto Heaven was both a means of transcending worldly limitations and a form of constraint.

Constructing a Grotto Heaven enabled a Great Power to greatly enhance their control over rules, a process that continued until the text’s end, where the predecessor still worked on enhancing the Grotto Heaven’s internal rules.

Li Yuanba placed his hand on another bubble, gleaning another content.

He stayed in the Book Collection Pavilion for a full month, reviewing all two hundred and sixty jade scrolls.

He noticed the texts stopped at the stage of successful Great Power advancement, lacking further content.

Moreover, there weren’t any new cultivation techniques, which was understandable since all Sword Cultivators in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion followed the same cultivation technique, the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique.’

All the texts focused on the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique.’

Honestly, he was somewhat disappointed; the texts were indeed beneficial to him but served merely as references for his true body, Li Shiming.

The Sword Cultivator’s Grotto Heaven differed from the ’Heavenly Human Technique’s’ Grotto Heaven.

Since the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ was a brand-new cultivation technique without documented ancestral experiences, Li Shiming needed to acquire a large amount of peak Great Cultivator texts to derive the ’Heavenly Human Technique’s’ Grotto Heaven construction process through IBMz15’s comprehensive analysis.

Nonetheless, this significantly reduced Li Yuanba’s difficulty in advancing to Great Power after reading the texts.

He also learned how to gather the corresponding resources, even possessing a type of Heavenly Mechanism Treasure himself.

However, adhering to the priority principle favoring his true body, Li Shiming, he would consider using it himself only when Li Shiming had extra Heavenly Mechanism Treasures.

Exiting the Book Collection Pavilion, Li Yuanba bowed to the void, knowing Sword Elder was surely watching.

”Yuanba, you have the greatest potential to become a Great Power of your generation, I have high hopes for you!” Sword Elder’s voice echoed, filled with expectation.
