You promised yourself to be a caged bird, but you became the supreme young master?

The so-called spirit is that all things have a spirit.

In this world, even inanimate objects can develop a tiny bit of intelligence after being bathed in spiritual energy.

This being, which is similar to but not quite a demon, has another name.

Spirits! The Spirit Race!

Of course, for practitioners, "spirit" has another name.

Lingbao.

A spiritual treasure that surpasses body-refining artifacts, qi-refining artifacts, and true-person magic weapons.

Furthermore, compared to the vast majority of spiritual treasures that acquire their spirituality through refining the essence of demons, it can be said that their upper limit is essentially fixed.

Those who are born with a spirit possess infinite possibilities.

Of course, having a high upper limit is one thing, but being born with a spiritual nature also determines a lower limit, which is equally terrifyingly low.

The vast majority of things that are born with a spirit never have the chance to grow into a spiritual treasure.

In many cases, even sentient beings don't have time to grow up before they are worn away by the passage of time.

Even if a spirit was born, as a mortal being, probably no one but Lu Heng himself would be able to discover it.

But what does a low lower limit even mean?

What kind of bicycle do you want?

At this stage, the spirit sword, which is still a mortal weapon, is a perfect match for Lu Heng.

And to happen to find a sword that is perfectly suited to a spirit in this small storage room.

That's beyond luck; it's fate! Destiny!

After carefully examining the sword, not wanting to miss a single detail, Lu Heng almost couldn't wait to step forward and grasp the sword, which made the middle-aged steward of the Internal Affairs Hall beside him a little strange.

It can only be assumed that the young man had never been exposed to weapons before, and his excitement at this moment is understandable.

After successfully obtaining the Spirit Sword, Lu Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

Reality is not a story; it's not like a villain suddenly appears and says that this thing is destined for me.

Although he felt a little disappointed that he wasn't the main character and didn't have the protagonist's halo, Lu Heng could only say that he was fortunate not to be.

………………

Back in his room in the outer courtyard, Lu Heng let out a long breath, drew his sword, and examined the longsword in his hand repeatedly.

Even with his experience of living two lives, he couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed, and it took him a long time to calm down.

The sharpness of swords is indeed very important. When both sides are evenly matched, having a sharper weapon can almost guarantee victory.

But for practitioners, the most important thing is ultimately themselves.

Even if a cultivator in the Body Refining Realm wields a magical treasure, there is no way they can contend with a cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm.

Well, the reason Lu Heng didn't mention spiritual treasures is that a book he was reading recorded that legendary spiritual treasures, even without an owner, can still exert a certain amount of power as long as they have enough spiritual energy.

That's already a bit over the top.

In this situation, even a True Person at the Refining Mystic Realm might not be able to withstand a single blow.

Ultimately, however, treasures of this caliber require cultivation to reach the corresponding level, unless one has an extremely powerful backer.

Otherwise, once exposed, there would be almost no chance of holding on.

Therefore, there is no need for further discussion.

Without delving deeper into the matter, Lu Heng looked at the sword in his hand and resolved that if he had the chance, he would definitely obtain a weapon-refining method that could nurture spiritual creatures.

Even though he knows that the ordinary sword in his hand has a spirit, he has no way to improve it, which is a real waste.

If Lu Heng had a way to sell it, this sword with a spirit would be priceless. For someone who really needed it, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he would give up his entire fortune.

It's quite obvious, however, that Lu Heng doesn't have such a channel.

Now I absolutely dare not reveal that the ordinary sword in my hand possesses a spirit, otherwise I will be doomed forever.

It seems inevitable that the spirit sword will be covered in dust, at least in the short term.

Fortunately, the swords possess a spirit, but not much of one, so they don't give rise to thoughts like "If you love me, let me go," "You can't give me the life I want," or "Don't stop me from moving towards a better future."

He shook his head, trying to banish these strange thoughts from his mind.

Lu Heng turned his gaze to the "Basic Sword Techniques" manual he had placed on the bedside table.

Under the explanation of the steward of the Internal Affairs Hall, he learned about the sword technique in front of him. The reason why he dared to call it the basic one was because it was also the first basic sword technique of the Great Qi Dynasty.

While it is incomparable to the "Basic Body Refining Method" in terms of status, it has reached the limit of swordsmanship, to the point where not a single word can be added or deleted.

This is what is known as the narrow slit between just barely reaching the limit and just a little bit more breaking through it.

Just from listening to the steward of the Internal Affairs Hall, Lu Heng became curious about just how advanced the "Basic Sword Technique" must be to be so exaggerated.

Open "Basic Sword Techniques" and quickly read through it once.

Although it is called a book, "Basic Sword Techniques" is actually only about ten pages long. It has been simplified to the extreme, but it is not so obscure that it is difficult to understand and makes people feel like they are reading a book from heaven.

In fact, it can be said to be simple and easy to understand!

Lu Heng pursed his lips, increasingly curious about the Great Qi Dynasty in this world.

Compared to the dynasties of the past, it can only be said that it has become extremely enlightened.

However, due to the existence of cultivators, the sects and aristocratic families in this world have also become extremely powerful.

Every advantage has its disadvantages; there is no such thing as perfection in this world.

Lu Heng opened the panel somewhat casually, and was immediately shocked.

Lu Heng

[12 years old]

Life Rank: None

[Cultivation Level: Body Refinement Level 1 (Mild Pill Poisoning)]

[Talent: Void Bloodline (Unawakened)]

[Technique: Basic Body Refinement Method (Beginner 20/300)]

Basic Swordsmanship (Beginner 0/100)

Evolution Points: 11/100 (After reaching the maximum value, it cannot be accumulated, but can unlock one life leap)

(Evolution points can only be accumulated through daily settlements)

How can "Basic Sword Techniques" be counted as a martial arts technique?

Originally, Lu Heng didn't have high expectations for this.

One should not be greedy. As mentioned before, there is no such thing as perfection in the world.

Lu Heng now intends to take back what he said.

Since even combat techniques like "Basic Sword Techniques," which can't really be considered cultivation methods, can be included in the panel.

What about the others?

Having read many miscellaneous books, Lu Heng immediately thought of something quite important for cultivators…

Practicing all arts and crafts!!!

Alchemy, weapon crafting, talismans, formations, divination, puppetry…

Can these cultivation techniques also be included in the panel?

In that case, he should perhaps change his plans accordingly.

It's important to know that the production cost of spiritual food is extremely low!

However, since it is related to alchemy, the difficulty of getting started is hellish, requiring a massive investment of resources to have any chance of success.

Since the panel might be able to include it, then perhaps he could try these techniques that are practically bottomless pits.
