Chapter 10: The Transformation and Sublimation of Level 7

I, Lu, am just an ordinary cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refinement! I must continue to work hard in my cultivation and steadily progress on the path of immortality

Lu Yi found himself lost in thought, and the corners of his mouth began to rise uncontrollably—not because he wanted to laugh, but because he simply could not help it

Lu Yi looked at the cloud patterns on the ground, feeling an immense excitement in his heart; lv6 and lv7 are entirely two different concepts

Lu Yi felt a bit excited; he now possessed a mid-grade magical artifact! Thinking about Old Lu, that miser, who wouldn't even let him touch the mid-grade long sword, now he had one of his own! If Old Lu were to find out, he would surely be envious.

Lu Yi felt a bit of fear, followed by a sense of surprise: these flowing cloud boots seemed to have increased his speed by nearly 30 percent

If Lu Yi's White Cloud Sword Technique continues to upgrade, with an increase in power while the consumption of spiritual energy remains unchanged, would he not be equivalent to using a Qi cultivation technique with the power of a Foundation Establishment technique

Lu Yi infused spiritual energy into the Flowing Cloud Boots, completely activating the magical artifact. He then executed the White Cloud Step technique, and with a slight movement of his body, in the next moment, Lu Yi instantaneously appeared at the other end of the room, his face just one centimeter away from the wall

Lu Yile laughed for a long time before taking a deep breath to calm his restless emotions: Stay calm! Even if I can use my ultimate move like a normal attack, I am just an ordinary novice at the sixth level of Qi training!

As long as it does not transcend the timeline, I am just a novice!

Meanwhile, in the Outer Affairs Hall, Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi were preparing to tidy up and finish their work, as the stewards also had their duty hours, and it was now their turn to clock out

After putting on the Flowing Cloud Boots, Lu Yi stood up, jumped a couple of times in place, and felt delighted: As expected of a medium-grade magical artifact, wearing it is simply comfortable

Generally speaking, practitioners in the Qi Refinement stage can only cultivate techniques specific to the Qi Refinement realm in order to unleash their full power. Some prodigies may indeed master Foundation Establishment techniques while still in the Qi Refinement stage, but the spiritual energy consumption of Foundation Establishment techniques poses a significant burden for Qi Refinement practitioners. Even for prodigies with a solid foundation, it is impossible to use them normally, and they can at most serve as a trump card

If one in the Qi Refining stage cannot even defeat a Golden Elixir, how can they still have the audacity to claim they are powerful? Shameless!

Medium-grade ritual implements, flowing cloud boots

Refuse to engage in self-destructive behavior, starting with myself

Moreover, what surprised Lu Yi even more was that after putting on the Flowing Cloud Boots, he felt that his body had become a bit lighter, which would enhance his speed

It was a close call; I almost crashed my handsome face into the wall

Lu Yi had originally cultivated the White Cloud Step to the realm of returning to simplicity, achieving a remarkable speed that could rival practitioners at the eighth or even ninth level of Qi Refinement. With an additional thirty percent increase, even practitioners at the ninth level of Qi Refinement would likely find it difficult to match his speed

Lu Yi believes that although he is not the kind of person who is very cowardly, it is wrong to engage in self-destructive behavior

I am not invincible in the outer sect, not to mention anything else

After finishing the harvest count, Lu Yi glanced out the window. The horizon was tinged with orange, and the sun had already set. Today, Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang had lectured for an entire day. By the time he returned, it was already quite late. He then reviewed his gains and realized he had comprehended the Level 7 Baiyun Sword Technique. Unconsciously, time had slipped away, and it was already so late.

Lu Yi clicked to receive the reward for the second task, and immediately, a pair of light blue boots adorned with exquisite cloud patterns appeared on the table in front of him

I wonder if Old Lu and Mom have finished work? Lu Yi feels a bit hungry.

Isn't this not very good? Doesn't this seem a bit unfair to others?

Even the ultimate move has its limits, it is not something that can be casually wielded like a forbidden spell! What are you floating around for!

After a moment, Lu Yi finally had enough fun, contentedly sitting in the chair, continuing to tally his gains

Truly worthy of being a medium-grade magical artifact, it is indeed powerful

This change is simply unimaginable

The third task is also to defeat the outer sect disciples, but the opponent is Wang Xinqi. The reward is two perfect Qi Condensation Pills. Lu Yi can claim them, and now he has three pills in hand, which he can use during his upcoming cultivation.

After all, he seems to have become a bit fierce

Lu Yi seemed to have acquired a new toy, executing the White Cloud Step technique, his figure constantly flickering within the room, appearing here one moment and there the next, elusive and indistinct, like a ghostly shadow

Lu Yi had a feeling that if he were to exert himself with all his strength now, the power of his strikes would be nearly fifty percent greater than that of the previous Baiyun Sword Technique. Moreover, his mastery had become more effortless, and most importantly, the consumption of spiritual energy had surprisingly not increased

Although the White Cloud Sword Technique remains the same, at this moment, Lu Yi's method of circulating spiritual energy is no longer as it was before. After altering several routes of spiritual energy circulation, the efficiency of energy utilization has increased, and its power has become even stronger

After acknowledging the master, Lu Yi took off the boots on his feet and changed into the flowing cloud boots

Lu Yi could not wait to establish his ownership. Magical artifacts all require a master; only those that have recognized their master can unleash their full power. The process of recognizing a master for a magical tool is quite simple. Lu Yi's spiritual energy entered the artifact, leaving behind his spiritual imprint, thus completing the recognition effortlessly.

This is a form of optimization! If the Baiyun Sword Technique before level 6 was about continuously mastering the original Baiyun Sword Technique, then by level 7, it has transcended the original framework and has elevated the Baiyun Sword Technique to a new level

Stay steady and don't be reckless, we can win

After continuously giving himself psychological suggestions, Lu Yi gradually felt that this was a normal phenomenon. What is wrong with ordinary attacks from a Qi Refinement cultivator practicing foundational techniques? Aren't they still Qi Refinement cultivators?

... ...

The consumption of spiritual energy has not increased, yet the power has increased by fifty percent. Can you believe this?

Lu Yi closed his eyes to absorb the information. When he had completely absorbed it, he opened his eyes, and a flash of sword light seemed to pass through them. He let out a slight breath of turbid air, then raised his finger, which was surrounded by swirling clouds, appearing very gentle. With a sweep of his finger, ripples resembling flowing clouds suddenly appeared in the air, slowly descending and silently imprinting several cloud patterns on the ground.

After Lu Yi accepted the task, he immediately felt a swelling in his brain as a vast amount of information flooded into his mind: it was all insights into the White Cloud Sword Technique

At that moment, a middle-aged man with a bulbous nose hurried over and exclaimed at Lu Gaoyang, "Well, old Lu! I didn't expect that your kid would be so impressive! Why have I never heard you mention this before?"

I am truly lacking in skill! How could I be so inadequate!

Lu Yi's expression was somewhat peculiar; the spells that those geniuses used as their ultimate moves were merely basic attacks to him

The slow bird flies first

What kind of sorcery is that

The fourth task is to demonstrate the White Cloud Sword Technique together with Senior Sister Liu Niangshuang, and his level in the White Cloud Sword Technique increases by 1

Lu Yi slightly nodded, expressing approval of his own thoughts

Lu Gaoyang looked bewildered at the man with a nose like a wine trough and said, "Huh? What is it?"

Lu Yi felt a tremor in his heart. If the White Cloud Sword Technique at merely level 7 is already this powerful, then what about levels 8 and 9? If it continues to be optimized, will the power of the White Cloud Sword Technique further increase? Will the consumption of spiritual energy not change as well?

Lu Yi silently instilled the thought in himself that he was still a novice, to prevent himself from becoming overly arrogant. Once a person becomes arrogant, it is easy to become conceited, and once conceit sets in, intelligence diminishes, leading to inexplicable self-sabotage
