Cultivation: I Can Add Descriptors To My Body - Chapter 28
Chapter 28
“Senior brother? Is he still not back…”
Chen Qingke was a little disappointed when she did not hear Li Ming’s reply.
She had just arrived and had not been outside the cave abode for that long.
Since Li Ming’s on-the-spot test last time, she came to realize something.
Occasionally, she would want to talk about dao techniques with Senior Brother Li and gain further insights into cultivation.
However, seeing that Li Ming was still not back, she had come empty-handed again.
This time, Chen Qingke wanted to see if senior brother Li had returned.
“He’s still not back? Where did senior brother go?”
Chen Qingke was rather puzzled.
“Junior Sister Chen,” Li Ming said as he walked out of the bamboo forest.
Chen Qingke turned around and saw that Li Ming looked travel-worn as if he had rushed back from a long distance.
“Senior Brother Li, why were you not in your cave abode these past few days? And…”
Chen Qingke asked in surprise when she saw how Li Ming looked.
“Why do you look so haggard?”
In the past, Senior Brother Li had always appeared as someone filled with vigor and spirit.
But at this moment, he looked like he had not rested for a few days, and he looked really haggard.
Li Ming had rushed back through day and night. When he was reporting, he did indeed feel a little tired.
However, the joy of obtaining a purple entry completely overshadowed the fatigue.
No matter how hard and tiring he had been feeling, it was not as important as the opportunity to improve his strength.
When he got the purple entry and found that the effects were beyond his expectations, he was finally able to relax.
Li Ming had planned to sort things out and then take a good rest after returning to his cave abode this time.
But as soon as he returned to his cave abode, he heard Chen Qingke’s words filled with concern, making him feel warm inside.
It seemed that there was actually someone who was concerned for him in the sect.
“Half a month ago, I received an urgent mission from the sect. I only returned today.”
“I look like this mainly because I was in a hurry.”
Li Ming explained.
“Oh, so it’s that demon-catching mission.”
Chen Qingke nodded in realization.
Chen Qingke had also completed that urgent mission.
It was just that she had not had to do as much as him, so she had completed her mission long ago.
Therefore, when she heard Li Ming mention that it was an emergency mission, she quickly understood.
“Senior brother, you’ve been working hard outside the mountain for half a month. You should take a good rest.”
Li Ming said, “I’m fine. Anyway, what are you looking for me for?”
Chen Qingke recalled the important matter she had come here for and said, “Oh, isn’t the inner sect trial coming up? I wanted to form a team with you.”
“The inner sect trial?”
Li Ming thought for a moment.
This inner sect trial was actually a benefit that the Divine Will Sect gave to the inner sect disciples.
There were many secret realms of various sizes in the Divine Will Sect.
Some of these secret realms were so small that they could only fit qi refinement stage cultivators.
Therefore, the elders of the Divine Will Sect used these secret realms as rewards.
Even though certain secret realms could only be entered by those at the qi refinement stage, it was still best if those cultivators had a certain level of cultivation.
Hence, the privilege became exclusive to inner disciples.
In the past, the inner sect trial was held once a year.
And apparently, it was that time of the year again where the secret realms would be opened.
Although Li Ming was also an inner disciple, he had not participated in any of the previous three inner sect trials that had taken place during his time in the sect.
He had missed out on a lot of benefits, but of course, he had still been working hard to fill up the progress bars for his entries.
This time, if it was not for Junior Sister Chen reminding him, he would have nearly forgotten about this matter.
Chen Qingke asked, “What do you think, senior brother? Do you want to team up with me?”
It was her first year in the Divine Will Sect, and this was her first time participating in the inner sect trial test. Therefore, she came to look for the experienced Li Ming.
However, she probably did not expect that Li Ming had not even participated once in the three years that he had been there.
“Alright, sure.”
Li Ming now understood the importance of resources.
The rewards of this inner sect trial seemed to be pretty good and if he formed a team with Junior Sister Chen, he could also learn some qi refinement cultivation techniques.
Seeing that Senior Brother Li had agreed to her offer, Chen Qingke nodded happily.
“Senior brother, I’ll be in your care then!”
“Alright,” he said.
Li Ming watched as Junior Sister Chen disappeared on the bamboo path. Afterward, he turned around and walked into the cave.
He was finally back after so many days!
As soon as he returned to his cave abode, Li Ming could not wait to receive his divine soul opportunity.
In the courtyard, Li Ming stood in place and an opportunity spread out in his sea of consciousness.
It was like a stone being thrown into a deep pool, creating circles of ripples.
That strange feeling quickly spread throughout his body. It was a sublimation that went deep into his soul.
His fatigue was washed away and replaced with an abundance of energy.
“Refreshing!”
While Li Ming felt comfortable all over, he also felt that his spirit seemed to be undergoing a strange change.
The illusory divine soul in his body had almost solidified after receiving the grace of the opportunity!
The change brought about by this was the rapid development of the sea of consciousness. Like the creation of the world, his divine sense suddenly expanded.
The divine sense that he did not care much about when he was in the qi refinement stage now had an awe-inspiring aura.
Just based on this aura, it could be compared to those of the foundation establishment stage!
Li Ming felt as if he had just experienced a soul bath.
When he opened his eyes again, he was still at the eighth level of the qi refinement stage.
However, whether it was his control or his ability to see through things, they were completely different from before.
The thoughts in his mind were lightning fast.
His vision was also extremely clear.
Looking at the green leaves on the trees in the distance, not only could he see every pore clearly, but he could also see the essence of the plants flowing inside.
“Is this the power of the divine soul…”
Li Ming was a little shocked. No wonder cultivators became so much stronger after reaching the foundation establishment stage. It turned out that their divine sense contributed greatly to that transformation.
He was only at the qi refinement stage, but his divine soul was already as strong as those of the foundation establishment stage.
It was unbelievable!
And as far as Li Ming knew, it was very difficult to improve one’s divine soul.
Even if trained it day after day, the effect would be minimal.
Treasures that could improve one’s divine soul were all extremely valuable.
He never would have thought that he would obtain a divine soul opportunity.
The benefits of a strong divine soul were self-evident.
It could be said that this had changed his aptitude from the very root.
Li Ming was overjoyed. Purple entries indeed heaven-defying.
With such a powerful divine soul, he would have no more shortcomings on his path of cultivation.
Furthermore, the divine soul was a common means of attack for cultivators.
When combined with spells, formations, and even the physical body, it would have endless uses.
“With the improvements of my divine sense, I can totally start cultivating certain cultivation techniques in advance.”
Li Ming quickly thought of this.
He had to prepare for a rainy day.
His Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art was used to temper his body, and it was not designed to incorporate the training of one’s soul.
Not making use of such a heaven-defying divine soul would be a great waste of heaven’s gift.
If he could find a suitable cultivation technique to use, it would be very useful in many situations.
Because Li Ming’s divine soul was so strong, he felt refreshed and no longer felt like resting.
The more he thought about things, the clearer his thoughts became.
To strengthen himself, he could not put all his eggs in one basket.
A good divine soul must not be wasted.
At the thought of this, Li Ming decided to go to the scriptures depository to take a look after he had completely broken through.
He had to find a cultivation technique that was suitable for his divine soul and thoroughly cultivate his heaven-defying divine soul.
