Cultivation: Beginning with the Heart Reflecting Heaven and Earth

In addition to the fighting arena, there is also a scripture library, including the Ten Thousand Laws Battle Tower, as well as various classrooms of the Zhou Tian Academy.

Lu Qian originally wanted to visit the Myriad Laws Battle Tower, but although it looked close, it was actually quite far away.

Moreover, Xie Xunzhen said that Lu Qian's cultivation level was too low, so there was no point in him going. He suggested that Lu Qian go himself after he reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

In fact, being at the mid-stage of Qi Refining is just the threshold for entering the Tower of Ten Thousand Laws. This is not a hard and fast rule, but simply because the first to third floors of the Tower of Ten Thousand Laws will suppress the cultivation level of intruders to the mid-stage of Qi Refining. If the intruder's cultivation level has not reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining and they have not even learned a few spells, then there is no point in trying to enter the tower.

After visiting most of the places, Xie Xunzhen said seriously, "In the Holy Land, it is very important to abide by the rules. No matter if you are a Golden Core junior or a Nascent Soul direct descendant, you cannot act arrogantly. Otherwise, the law enforcement cultivators will be mobilized, and no amount of pleading will be of any use."

Xie Xunzhen didn't mention the Nascent Soul stage, even in the Holy Land, the Nascent Soul stage still represented the rules to some extent.

Lu Qian recalled what happened at the Canghai Sect and asked curiously, "But even within the rules, it's possible to kill someone. The Holy Land values ​​the rules so much, it must be difficult to handle something like this, right?"

Xie Xunzhen pointed at the Myriad Laws Battle Tower: "See that?"

Lu Qian didn't react immediately. "The Tower of Ten Thousand Laws? Is there anything there?"

Xie Xunzhen then said, "The Myriad Laws Battle Tower possesses the spirit of myriad laws. It not only controls everything within the Myriad Laws Battle Tower, but it can also monitor the entire Holy Land from the outside. Whether you are plotting within layers of formations or colluding outside the Holy Land, as long as you return, it will know everything."

"Of course, the Spirit of All Laws won't care about trivial matters, but if someone asks it, it will tell you. It would be very difficult to hide anything from the Spirit of All Laws under its nose."

This is equivalent to everyone having an extra eye on their head. While it's impossible to completely eliminate some shady dealings, it can still serve as a limit, which is sufficient.

In the world of cultivators, the level of cultivation is still the ultimate measure of success. External objects can only play a supporting role; one's own cultivation is the foundation of everything.

"Your cave is at number 43 (D-junction). Go there!"

Xie Xunzhen led Lu Qian to a pavilion and then left.

Lu Qian took out his identity jade token, and a flash of light appeared on it. The door opened by itself.

He looked around and saw that all the buildings were like this, with the doors tightly closed, and it seemed that no one was there.

"That's right! Most of those who can enter Zhou Tian Academy are sent by high-level cultivators from within the Holy Land. They already have their own residences within the Holy Land and don't need to live here."

Although Lu Qian was also sent over, Tao Pili clearly had no intention of teaching him at any time, so Lu Qian was assigned to this place.

The so-called Ding-shaped cave is a Qi-refining cave with a second-tier spiritual vein.

Based on this calculation, a cave dwelling of the character "丙" is obviously for Foundation Establishment, a cave dwelling of the character "乙" is for Golden Core, and a cave dwelling of the character "甲" is for Nascent Soul...

In reality, that's not the case. At least here, there are only the Bing-character cave dwellings at most.

Even in the Holy Land, a Golden Core cultivator is not a minor figure. They are either assigned accommodations based on their position or they already have their own place to live, unlike Qi Refining disciples who are assigned to dormitories.

Lu Qian pushed open the door and walked in, immediately surprised. The space here was huge. There was a pill-refining room, a secret chamber for seclusion, a display room for storing magical artifacts, a study for storing ancient books, and even a small garden at the back where one could plant spiritual plants or admire flowers.

Although Lu Qian had thought before coming that the treatment in the Holy Land wouldn't be too bad, everything before him still exceeded his expectations.

However, Lu Qian knew very well that all of this was because he was able to cultivate the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao (a type of energy cultivation technique), and that cultivation level was the foundation of his existence.

"The Zhou Tian Xing Qiao I obtained only provides the method for opening the Xing Qiao, but not the corresponding Qi-refining technique. I still need to cultivate the 'Fire-Filling Furnace Technique'!"

Now that things have come to this, Lu Qian naturally understands that what he obtained from the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao (a type of acupoint) is only a small part of the complete Zhou Tian Xing Qiao, or rather, merely the introductory chapter.

"The Zhou Tian Xing Qiao technique seems to have been lost for a long time. I don't know how much of it is still preserved. However, judging from Tao Pili's reaction, what has been lost should be the introductory chapter, the correct method for opening the Xing Qiao."

"If you can't even open the Star Aperture, it's like you can't even get started, and no matter how much you learn later, it's useless."

These are things that Lu Qian cannot understand at the moment. He can only wait patiently for Tao Pili's arrangements. For now, he can only choose to cultivate the "Fire-Filling Furnace Technique".

For Lu Qian, a second-tier spiritual vein was not much different from a first-tier spiritual vein. He was only at the early stage of Qi Refining and was far from reaching the limit of a second-tier spiritual vein.

However, relatively speaking, cultivation on a second-tier spiritual vein is faster because the spiritual energy is more abundant and enters the body with each breath. Even without deliberate cultivation, one's cultivation level will increase gradually over time.

This is normal; the higher the grade of a spiritual vein, the greater the benefits. It's just that most people don't have the ability to choose a better spiritual vein.

"Reaching from the third to the fourth level of Qi Refining is a threshold, a minor bottleneck, and it may take a little longer."

"But now I have spiritual veins and the aid of the Cleansing Spirit Pill, so my cultivation speed is much faster than before. I should be able to reach the fourth level of Qi Refining in less than half a year."

Lu Qian originally estimated that it would take about nine months, assuming there were enough pills and no other things to kill time.

However, the current conditions are much better than before, so the intervals between breakthroughs will be shorter.

He took out the Qingling Pill, swallowed one, and immediately felt a surge of pure energy lingering in his dantian. When he circulated his true energy again, this pure energy cleverly followed, escorting his true energy along the way and helping his meridians bear the pressure.

Originally, after five cycles of Qi circulation, his meridians were already overburdened, but with this pure and spiritual energy, Lu Qian was able to exhaust the pure and spiritual energy and stop after circulating it for another three cycles.

"Generally speaking, the Cleansing Spirit Pill can help low-level cultivators circulate their Qi for two more cycles, but I have improved the Qi circulation route, so I can circulate it for three more cycles."

"When your cultivation level is higher, the effects of the Cleansing Spirit Pill will diminish, but by then there will be better pills available."

Two days later, Xie Xunzhen came to see Lu Qian again, calling him out, "Let's go! It's time for class!"

"From now on, remember this: you'll have a short class every three days and a long class every two weeks, and you'll need to go to the academy for both. You're all at the Qi Refining stage, so you don't need to worry about going into seclusion. This is a good time to teach you some things."

"When you want to come back in the future, there probably won't be anyone to teach you for free."

Lu Qian listened silently. He would just do whatever Xie Xunzhen said, and that was enough. Thinking too much would only cause him trouble.
