Chen Shuangbai sighed softly, "Truly a legacy of a great sect."

Such a large collection of books could not have been completed without the efforts of several generations.

Chen Shuangbai did not rush to go deeper into the bookshelves, but instead began browsing the bookshelves in front of her.

Each Jade Slip is marked with a brief name and description by a spiritual light.

He walked slowly, his gaze sweeping over each name:

"The ' Flowing Cloud Water Horse Scroll ' is a water-based Cultivation Method, specializing in transformation and control..."

Just as he was about to continue reading, the Book Spirit appeared out of nowhere and introduced, "There are dozens of cultivation methods suitable for inner disciple, and each disciple must choose according to their primary and secondary Spirit Root aptitudes."

"You have a Water-Wood Spirit Root, primarily Water and secondarily Wood, and you're also accompanied by Frost. Let me see if I can find it for you..."

The Book Spirit was already quite outgoing.

He pointed his little hand at the rows of bookshelves, and three Jade Slip jumped out from them. The spiritual light restrictions covering them automatically dispelled, and they were neatly arranged and landed in front of him.

"Thank you very much, sir."

Chen Shuangbai didn't rush to look at it, but first thanked the Book Spirit, who put her hands on her hips, waved her hand, and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing."

He looked around again.

The cultivation method provided by the Jade Spring Sect to its outer disciples was initially the uniformly arranged " Jade Spring Qi Ingestion Method ".

This method is the most balanced and moderate, which can lay a solid foundation to the greatest extent and is compatible with the transition to various subsequent Cultivation Method, thus preventing disciples from limiting their future potential due to improper choices in the early stages.

Once one reaches the middle stage of cultivation, one can switch to other Cultivation Method depending on one's individual Spirit Root aptitude.

certainly.

Some disciples, who come from families with a long tradition of learning or are promoted from various lineages, will choose to practice their own family's or lineage's inherited Cultivation Method when they are in the early to mid-stages of Qi Refining and have not yet been promoted to the inner sect.

For example, Lu Zhiyuan practiced the direct lineage of the Yellow Wind Lu Clan, the "Chentu Mingjin Yuqi Chen Earth Bright Metal Qi Control Instruction ". For example, Ji Ruohua encountered in the Martial Edge Trial, practiced the direct lineage of the Jade Spring Dharma Lineage Accumulated Emerald School, the " Accumulated Cloud Emerald Intent Bright Qi Art ".

Chen Shuangbai Jade Slip, their spiritual light displaying pale blue, cyan, and moon white colors respectively.

" The Flowing Cloud Water Horse Scroll ", " The Qinglin Rain Transformation Scripture ", and " The Moon-Illuminating Light-Scattering Art ".

This time, the Book Spirit didn't offer much explanation; she simply removed the restrictions on it and let Chen Shuangbai see for himself.

Chen Shuangbai did not hesitate much. After reading all three Cultivation Method, he used his spiritual sense to make a copy of the " Flowing Cloud Water Horse Scroll," which was considered as having chosen his Cultivation Method.

The Book Spirit seemed to have anticipated this and did not stop him.

This is the tacit understanding between the two.

Book Spirit knew that Chen Shuangbai had other fortuitous opportunity, perhaps great, perhaps small, but his talent was undeniable, and as a special Foundation Establishment cultivator, it wasn't really something she could say.

Chen Shuangbai naturally chose the one she found pleasing to the eye.

His " Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method," which evolved from the " Jade Spring Qi Ingestion Method " based on the " Great Yin Dao Fruit," could conservatively be cultivated to the Golden Core Realm. Why would he need to switch to other methods midway?

However, choosing this book, " Flowing Cloud Water Horse Scroll," wasn't entirely without effect. If Chen Shuangbai had the time, he could study it as well, and who knows, he might even make some progress.

As for the other three Law Technique or Secret Method...

This time, Book Spirit didn't interfere much; instead, Chen Shuangbai chose based on her feelings or interests.

Chen Shuangbai observed for a long time, then suddenly asked, "My lord, do you possess the art of sword control?"

The Book Spirit nodded, flicked its finger, and a jade slip, shimmering with light but shrouded in frost and snow Jade Slip, fell out and flew to Chen Shuangbai's side.

The Book Spirit said, "There are two volumes of sword control techniques within the sect."

"One of these books is the legacy of the Empty Sword Sect. Hundreds of years ago, it was presented to our sect as a gift at the True Person banquet of our sect leader. It is called ' The True Explanation of Void Clarity Sword Control '."

"The other book is a sword-controlling technique created by True Person Mei, called ' The Snow-Listening Sword Control Instruction '."

"See for yourself."

Chen Shuangbai glanced at both of them.

This " True Explanation of Void Clarity Sword Control " sounds impressive, but it is actually the foundational text of the Empty Sword Sect's ultimate martial art.

Since everyone in the Empty Sword Sect is a sword cultivator, these basic texts are the easiest to lose. However, they don't care because even basic knowledge will eliminate most people who are willing to learn.

Furthermore, when each cultivator of the Empty Sword Sect learns their sect's Cultivation Method or Secret Method, they usually make an oath or sign Dharma Contract. Even if someone manages to obtain a part of it, it will inevitably be incomplete.

Forcing oneself to cultivate something that is incomplete or flawed is most likely to Qi Deviation.

The copy I have in my hand is naturally complete.

But this is only the basics.

As for the other book...

Chen Shuangbai raised her hand to touch it, only to feel a bone-chilling coldness, but also a sense of purity and nobility.

"Even if it's not a sword technique, it possesses such power and profound meaning?"

As Golden Core sword cultivator, True Person Mei's self-created sword control technique is naturally of a high rank.

However, after Chen Shuangbai came into contact with it, he discovered that this method was extremely cold, aloof, and sharp, but it was a bit too unorthodox and was most suitable for ice-type Spirit Root.

Water-elemental Spirit Root can also be cultivated, but they are not as suitable as the former.

In contrast, " The True Explanation of Void Clarity Sword Control " is only a basic chapter, but its content emphasizes the sword's invisible nature, the sword's control as swift as the wind, and the pursuit of light and lightning. It also places greater emphasis on the cultivation of Sword Essence and the honing of Sword Intent.

Chen Shuangbai follows the path of [ Law Sword ], not [ Extreme Sword ], and cannot devote all his cultivation to the three-foot-long sword.

For him, swordsmanship was a means of protecting his path, not his only means.

He has now cultivated Sword Qi, and his next step is to refine Sword Essence.

So what if it's the basic version?

With the [ Great Yin Dao Fruit ] bestowed upon him, Chen Shuangbai might be able to evolve it into an even more exquisite sword-controlling technique.

Having thought this through, he had already made up his mind.

The Book Spirit was slightly surprised to see that he had not chosen True Person Mei's " Snow-Listening Sword Control Instruction " but instead chose " The True Explanation of Void Clarity Sword Control," but she did not say anything.

Chen Shuangbai then chose two more Law Technique, one an illusion spell and the other a wood spell.

The wood-based technique is called " Heavenly Wood Spirit Restoration." It emphasizes selecting a spiritual seed, carefully nurturing it with Law Power, and planting Law Seals upon it. When facing an enemy, one can casually throw it down, and the spiritual seed will instantly bloom into its full state. Then, it will fuse all of its essence into a powerful and terrifying Heavenly Wood Profound Light that strikes the enemy.

The beauty of this method lies in the fact that it can be prepared in advance.

If you dislike someone, you don't need to expend your Law Power. You only need to awaken the spirit seed, and you can instantly shoot out a beam of Heavenly Wood Profound Light. It's truly convenient.

This Principle, named " Mirage Illusory Scene," is a rare example of something that transcends the framework of illusion and mirage. Its brilliance lies in the eight characters: "[using reality to reflect illusion, and using illusion to confuse reality]."
