Azure Sky Glazed Art, Spirit Wheel Realm!

[Azure Sky Glazed Art!]

[Grade: Unknown!]

[With a body like glazed jade, the Azure Sky cannot be destroyed. Upon great mastery, glazed light reflects the Azure Sky!]

This was the only Cultivation Method reward among the sign-in rewards.

Unlike the Kirin Treasure Technique and Spirit Martial Art, Qing Luo had never heard of this Cultivation Method before.

It was self-created,

or perhaps it had been passed down by some great figure from the Great Thousand World.

Its grade being unknown proved that this Cultivation Method possessed limitless potential.

Qing Luo did not have a mother as exceptional as Mu Chen's, nor did he have ancient Cultivation Methods from the Five Great Ancient Clans.

All he cultivated was the most ordinary Cultivation Method in the Azure Domain.

The appearance of the Azure Sky Glazed Art made up for many of Qing Luo's shortcomings and gave him far more possibilities.

After that,

Qing Luo turned his gaze toward the final reward—Spirit Martial Art!

This martial art...

How should he put it? It could entirely be regarded as a reward.

As a Spirit Martial Art from the Profound Sky Continent, one of the Lower Planes of the Great Thousand World, there was nothing particularly defying the heavens about it.

The only thing worthy of praise

was perhaps its ability to look impressive...

With one finger pressed out, the earth stirred in gales and the heavens changed color.

Putting all its power into the finishing move was also a tradition of the Profound Sky Continent.

After reviewing the rewards,

Qing Luo directly took out the Azure Sky Glazed Art, preparing to replace his original Cultivation Method.

A Cultivation Method was the foundation.

A good Cultivation Method could solidify the foundation of the Great Dao, granting an innate advantage that left one undefeated.

Take Mu Chen's Great Pagoda Art, for example.

When fighting opponents of the same realm, Mu Chen did not even need to use Spiritual Arts. Relying solely on his Cultivation Method, he could remain invincible among those of the same realm.

That was the priority of a Cultivation Method!

Buzz—

As Qing Luo began cultivating,

a complete and complex circulation route appeared in his mind.

Its obscurity was more than a hundred times greater than the Cultivation Method he had practiced before...

Whether a Cultivation Method was powerful or not

essentially depended on its unique circulation patterns, which drew forth varying degrees of power.

In essence,

the more intricate the circulation route, the more powerful the Cultivation Method would be.

Even with Qing Luo's current Peak Spirit Movement Stage strength,

following the method's instructions to circulate the spiritual energy within his body left him mentally exhausted. It was incomparably obscure.

One could well imagine

how astonishingly high the threshold for this Cultivation Method was...

For an entire afternoon, Qing Luo immersed himself completely in cultivating the Cultivation Method. With the advantage of his Double Pupils' ability to Decompose Origin and see through falsehood,

he barely managed to cultivate the Azure Sky Glazed Art to the introductory stage.

The strength of Double Pupils did not lie merely in combat. During cultivation, they could also see through one's origin and enhance cultivation.

As the conversion of his Cultivation Method was completed,

Qing Luo noticed that his originally crystalline spiritual energy had become like suet jade, covered in a layer of white frost.

This frosted spiritual energy

appeared serene, yet Qing Luo could sense an immortal aura within it that made one tremble!

It was simply incomparable to the spiritual energy cultivated through ordinary Cultivation Methods.

The frosted spiritual energy seemed to naturally possess the lofty status of a superior...

Besides that,

Qing Luo also gained a clearer understanding of the Azure Sky Glazed Art.

More accurately, this was a Cultivation Method focused on body refinement, roughly divided into three realms: White Jade, Azure Sky, and Glazed Realm.

The first stage was White Jade.

Upon reaching this stage, one's Whole Body would become as delicate as suet jade, like naturally carved white jade.

In this state,

both one's offensive power and defense would be greatly enhanced.

As for the degree of enhancement, Qing Luo did not yet know, though it presumably would not be much weaker than the Great Pagoda Art.

After all,

this Cultivation Method had been signed in from Mu Chen.

Boom—

Qing Luo clenched his right hand into a fist and threw a punch.

The air before him was violently compressed, producing a piercing sonic boom.

"Terrifying..."

Feeling the nearly twentyfold amplification of his spiritual energy, even Qing Luo was slightly shocked.

Whether a Cultivation Method was powerful or not

depended not only on its complex circulation patterns. The most direct measure was the amplification of spiritual energy it provided.

Generally speaking,

ordinary-grade Cultivation Methods provided around a fivefold spiritual energy amplification, while Spirit-grade Cultivation Methods could reach tenfold.

The number of amplification layers was equivalent to an innate stacking of combat power.

The higher the number of amplification layers, the greater the power and offense one could unleash.

A nearly twentyfold spiritual energy amplification

meant that the Azure Sky Glazed Art had already reached the standard of a Divine Grade Cultivation Method.

Moreover, this was only because Qing Luo had just begun cultivating the Azure Sky Glazed Art. As his cultivation deepened, the number of spiritual energy amplification layers would become even more terrifying.

While Qing Luo cultivated the Azure Sky Glazed Body,

elsewhere,

Mu Chen, who had broken through to the Spirit Movement Stage, chose to leave the Northern Spirit Academy after accepting Liu Yang's challenge. He headed for the Mu Region to select a Cultivation Method suitable for himself.

He was preparing for the upcoming Two Academies Competition.

Ten days later,

at a quiet Training Ground in the East Courtyard of the Northern Spirit Academy.

"Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger!"

His slender, fair fingers were enveloped in a clean, serene halo as he pressed out with one finger.

Boom—

Even the Training Ground covered by a Spirit Array trembled incessantly beneath Qing Luo's finger.

Compared to ten days ago,

Qing Luo's offensive methods had become several times more powerful, and the spiritual energy within his body had grown increasingly condensed, faintly forming the shape of a Spirit Wheel behind him.

"You broke through to the Spirit Wheel Realm..."

A surprised voice sounded behind him.

When Qing Luo turned around, he saw a middle-aged man in an Instructor's Black Robe, his face resolute and spiritual energy faintly visible around him, radiating a subtle Pressure.

At some unknown point, he had appeared behind Qing Luo.

"Teacher Mo!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Qing Luo respectfully greeted him.

Teacher Mo

was an Instructor of the East Courtyard and one of the few Spirit Soul Realm experts in the Nine Regions.

Within the Nine Regions, his strength could absolutely rank among the top five. Coupled with his special identity as an Instructor, he possessed considerable prestige.

"Not bad..."

"There is still some time before the competition for the Five Great Academies' slots. Yet you have already reached the Spirit Wheel Realm. In this competition, you will surely secure a place."

Looking at the modest young man before him, Teacher Mo could not help but praise him.

If...

the one chosen to enter the Spirit Road back then had been Qing Luo rather than Mu Chen, would the outcome have been different?

Teacher Mo sighed inwardly.

In the East Courtyard, Qing Luo and Mu Chen had always been his most prized disciples.

Whether in temperament or talent, the former surpassed everything he had known before. It was as if Qing Luo had appeared solely to overturn his understanding of the world.

A fifteen-year-old at the Spirit Wheel Realm would be an exceptionally rare existence even in the Hundred Spirits Land.

As for the latter,

Mu Chen had entered the Spirit Road, which gave Teacher Mo great expectations for him.

Unfortunately, Mu Chen had been expelled from the Spirit Road for certain reasons,

leaving Teacher Mo somewhat disappointed...

"I only broke through recently."

Qing Luo replied.

"The Spiritual Art you were cultivating just now... it does not seem to belong to the academy?"

"It is a Spiritual Art from the Azure Domain!"

Qing Luo had long prepared an explanation for the origin of the Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger, so he was not worried about exposing anything.

"Mighty and Overbearing. It is quite rare even among Spirit-grade Spiritual Arts. Not bad... This Spiritual Art suits you very well."

Teacher Mo praised.

He had come this time intending to teach Qing Luo the Netherworld Death Seal.

The East Courtyard and West Courtyard had always been rivals.

Although Qing Luo was highly talented, Liu Mubai, the foremost student of the West Courtyard, had the entire Liu Region backing him. The Cultivation Methods and Spiritual Arts he cultivated were all among the Nine Domains' Finest.

Teacher Mo did not want Qing Luo to suffer a disadvantage in that regard, but now it seemed that he had worried unnecessarily.

The Azure Domain was one of the Nine Regions.

Even if the Azure Domain had declined, it surely still possessed some foundation...

"Why does Teacher Mo have time to come here?"

Qing Luo asked.

"Today is the day of the Two Academies Competition. Come watch with me." Teacher Mo said with a smile.

"The Two Academies Competition?"

Qing Luo murmured softly.
