Chapter 3
Gu Shaoyang sat cross-legged on the wooden bed, his face faintly glowing with a jade-like color.
After a long time, he let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.
"I'm at the fifth level of Qi Refinement! Although the Qing-Yun Sect's Qi Fostering Art for outer sect disciples is only a low-grade Human Rank and doesn't have any additional attributes, it's just and peaceful. It's the best way to build a foundation…"
After extracting the attributes from Wind Void, Gu Shaoyang's conversion rate of Yuan Qi had already reached 50%. Even his mastery of the Moving Cloud Sword Technique had increased by a level.
According to his estimations, whether it was his Innate Ability or Comprehension, he should have reached the upper middle level.
The Tian Yuan Continent had always evaluated one's aptitude based on the conversion rate of their Origin Energy.
Below 30% were low-grade, 40% to 50% were middle-grade, 60% were high-grade, 70% were geniuses, 80% were monstrous, and 90% could be said to be peerless monstrous.
As for 100%…
It was almost impossible.
This was because no one could achieve a 100% conversion rate. During the cultivation process, there would always be a portion that would overflow into the world.
“.. Perhaps I can do this by raising my Innate Ability to an infinitely high level…"
Gu Shaoyang pondered in his heart,'The attributes that can be extracted from genius disciples are much more than ordinary disciples. Now, in the outer sect, there are only a few genius disciples that I can come into contact with…' It's time to find a chance to get close to the other two..."
In fact, Gu Shaoyang did not have to come into contact with the target to extract the attribute. He only needed to be within half a meter of the target and touch the bubble on the target.
Therefore, it was not impossible for his idea to be realized.
" Every year, outer sect disciples have a chance to go to the Scripture Depository to choose a martial technique. My predecessor was too useless. After practicing for five years, he didn't even understand the 'Moving Cloud Sword Technique'. I can't waste this opportunity..."
Having made up his mind, Gu Shaoyang hurried out of the house the next morning and headed to the Sutra Depository.
Along the way, Gu Shaoyang met the outer sect disciples who woke up early for morning exercise. Naturally, he would not waste this opportunity. He went up to greet them one by one. After a while, he gained more than ten Innate Ability points and seven to eight Comprehension points.
The Scripture Depository was located on the main peak of the Green Cloud Peak. It was a four-story wooden building.
The first level had the most cultivation techniques for the outer sect disciples to choose from. The inner sect disciples could only enter the second level. As for the third and fourth levels, only the core disciples and the higher-ups of the sect were qualified to enter.
They had to pass through a small corridor to enter the pavilion. At the entrance of the corridor sat an old man with a withered face and white hair. His eyes were closed as if he was dozing off.
Gu Shaoyang wanted to go in directly, but he stopped when he passed by the old man.
There were a few bubbles floating on the old man's body.
"Qing-Yun Sect's skill-imparting elder: Innate Ability x3, Comprehension x14, Essence Energy x1089, Dusk Qi x89..."
Gu Shaoyang was shocked.
Just the Yuan Qi that seeped out was more than a thousand points, comparable to a dozen low grade Origin Stones. How high was this old man's strength?
Element Gathering Tier? Condensing Reality Stage? And it was at the Whirling Core realm?
No, the Yuan Qi of a Condensing Reality Realm warrior should be so solid that not a single bit of it would leak out.
This old man was so lethargic. Could it be that he was about to die…
'Forget it, I don't care…'
Gu Shaoyang took a few steps forward and bowed deeply to the old man. He also poked the bubbles on the old man's body.
"Attribute fusion…"
In an instant, Gu Shaoyang felt a huge surge of Vital Qi surging into his body, causing his meridians to swell and hurt.
The Qi Fostering Technique's internal strength circulated rapidly in his body and kept moving forward. Suddenly...
He had broken through.
Level 6 Qi Refinement!
The old man seemed to have noticed the sudden surge of Vital Qi in Gu Shaoyang's body. He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face, followed by a faint sense of relief.
“.. Go to Area A3 and take a look. Perhaps there's a cultivation technique you're looking for…"
"Thank you, Elder."
Gu Shaoyang bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
The old man's face was full of joy. Just by extracting the old man's attributes and accidentally breaking through to the sixth level of Qi Refinement, this trip to the Sutra Depository was not in vain.
Looking at Gu Shaoyang's back, the old man murmured,""In the past few years, the sect has also divined some good seedlings. At the age of eighteen, they broke through to Houtian sixth stage. In the future, they might have the opportunity to break through to Element Gathering Tier. Also, that disciple surnamed Mo from last time was not far from comprehending saber intent…I'm glad to see the sect prosper before my death…Sigh..."
The old man sighed softly and closed his eyes again.
Gu Shaoyang walked into the first floor of the Sutra Depository. Because it was still early, there were very few people here.
He casually grabbed a secret manual from the bookshelf beside him.
" Tiger Subduing Fist: Human Rank Low-Grade Martial Skill. Fists are fierce and powerful…"
He picked up another book.
" Spirit Snake Sword: Human Rank Low-Grade Martial Skill. It's agile and crafty. It has many variations and its power is passable…"
After flipping through several books, Gu Shaoyang was a little disappointed.
Some of them were even inferior to the [Moving Cloud Sword Technique].
Recalling the old man's instructions, he walked towards Area A3.
