Opening up the meridians was very smooth. In just a day and a half, all the meridians were opened up and the Dark Force could now circulate freely in his body.
Lu Li had reached the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm, but he was confused. He had no idea how to condense Spirit Sea.
Lu Ling did not understand. She could not fumble around and condense it at will.
The Liu Family had been quiet for a couple of days. No one had bothered him.
Lu Li was too lazy to go out. He put the matter aside and went to cultivate the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill.
Lu Ling stayed at home and read. Occasionally, she would chat with Cheng Qu's wife. Her life was comfortable and contented.
Apart from eating and sleeping, Lu Li was studying the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill.
He had underestimated the profoundness of an Earth Rank Profound Skill, and after cultivating in the courtyard for an entire ten days, his progress was extremely slow.
"Why did the profound strength I condense disappear immediately?"
The foundation of the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill was the mysterious power. Only by cultivating the mysterious power could one increase their strength.
The cultivation method's description of the condensation of the Profound Energy was very clear, which was to compress and condense the Profound Energy, turning it into a kind of "special" Profound Energy.
After so many days, Lu Li had condensed many strands of Xuan Power. But without exception, after every successful condensation, the Xuan Power would immediately collapse and turn back into Xuan Energy.
What was the problem?
Lu Li didn't know, and he couldn't figure it out. He had been cultivating according to the steps of the cultivation method without making a single mistake. However, the Xuan Power he cultivated would disintegrate and disappear.
"Creak ~"
The door was opened and Lu Ling walked in. Lu Li looked awful. She said with a smile, "If you can't find a way, you can try other ways. Don't be stubborn.
Go out and take a walk. Don't be cooped up in your room all day. "
"Get out?"
Lu Li shook his head and said, "We can't leave the Liu Family. There are many places in the Liu Family Compound that we can't go to. How can we get better?"
"You have to go to the Weapon Hall. Little White is out of food."
After some thoughts, Lu Ling added, "You can also go to the Hall of Cultivation Methods and look for some Secret Books that can help you condense Spirit Sea.
Since you haven't made any progress with the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill, why don't you think of a way to condense the Divine Sense Sea first? "
"Yes!"
Lu Li agreed with Lu Ling. He got up and walked out. Little White jumped over from the corner. It climbed onto Lu Li's shoulder and kept chirping, as if it was telling Lu Li that it had no more food in a wordless way.
"Alright, alright, I'll bring you to find some food."
Lu Li lovingly held Little White in his hands and stroked its mane with a smile.
The little guy had eaten so many abandoned Xuan Artifacts, but it didn't grow any bigger. It was still the size of a fist, which made Lu Li speechless.
Hiding Little White in his sleeve, Lu Li walked out of the yard and went to the Hall of Weapons. Patriarch He saw that Lu Li was a bit indifferent. When Lu Li was about to enter the room where the abandoned Xuan Artifacts were stored, Patriarch He suddenly said, "Recently, the Family is preparing for war. We are in dire need of all kinds of resources. Therefore, the Hall of Patriarchs of the Family has issued an order — all Guest Warriors can exchange for double the contribution points and double the price of abandoned Xuan Artifacts."
"Double?"
Lu Li stopped and looked at Patriarch He. Seeing Patriarch He turn his head away with a guilty conscience, Lu Li suddenly understood.
It seemed that his rejection of Liu Yi had angered the Elder Hall of the Liu Family. The Liu Family had begun to deliberately target him. Lack of resources?
All Foreign Chamberlains?
These were just excuses.
What kind of resources were abandoned Xuan Artifacts? The abandoned Xuan Artifacts would rust if they were left here. Which warrior of the Family would use them?
Apart from putting the abandoned Xuan Artifacts back in the furnace to be reforged, what else could they do?
"Punk, don't look at me like that."
Being stared at by Lu Li for a while, Patriarch He said uncomfortably, "This is an order from the Hall of Patriarchs. I can't do anything about it."
"Oh, okay!"
Lu Li answered and left. He didn't have many contribution points left, only more than 5000. He decided not to exchange for Little White's food for now. He should go and see how many contribution points were needed to condense the Spirit Sea.
Lu Li walked around in the front yard and found the Hall of Cultivation Methods. There was an old maid in charge there. She didn't show any strange expressions when she saw Lu Li.
However, after Lu Li took out his Token, her face turned gloomy. She threw the Token to Lu Li and said, "You don't have the right to go to the second floor. You have to pay 10,000 contribution points to borrow the Secret Books on the first floor for a day."
"10,000?"
Lu Li almost cursed. The layout of this place was similar to that of the Hall of Xuan Skills. Clearly, there were no high-level Cultivation Methods and experiences on the first floor.
The Secret Books here cost 10,000 for a day?
It was obvious that she was targeting him.
Lu Li didn't argue with her. It was pointless. He thought about it and asked, "I just want to read for two hours. How many contribution points do I have to pay?"
He only needed to find a way to condense the Spirit Sea. As long as he could find the appropriate Secret Books or experiences, two hours would be enough.
The old maid thought about it and said, "According to the rules of the Hall of Cultivation Methods, you have to borrow the Secret Books for one day.
But since you are still young, I will make an exception for you. You can read for two hours. That will be 2,000 contribution points. "
"Two thousand?"
Lu Li handed over his Token reluctantly and walked in in strides. There were only two big rooms. Lu Li walked into the first room and cursed at once.
He was fooled. All the Cultivation Methods in this room were of the lowest level, only for cultivating Xuan Energy.
He had the "War God Album" of the Lu Family. These Cultivation Methods were of no use to him.
Now that he was in, Lu Li picked up a copy of "Xuan Heaven Method" and started reading. After a while, he shook his head and put it back.
This Xuan Heaven Method was too low level. Compared to the "War God Album", it was like heaven and earth. Also, he only had the first section of the "War God Album".
This time, he didn't stop. He left the room directly and entered the second room. After a few glances, he finally felt relieved.
This room was filled with all kinds of cultivation experiences left by the predecessors. There must be something he wanted here.
He picked up a copy of "Liu Yuanlong's Record" and browsed through it. The words were scribbled. He could barely understand it.
After a while, he felt his head hurt. The contents were messy and there was no order. What was more, it only talked about how to open up energy channels, cultivate Xuan Energy, and refine the body. There was no description of condensing the Spirit Sea.
Lu Li put the book down and picked up another one. This one talked about condensing the Spirit Sea. Too bad, it was only a passing reference …
The third one was even worse. It seemed to be written by a warrior at the middle stage of the Xuan Wu Realm. There was no description of the Spirit Sea Realm.
Lu Li kept on reading. The fourth one talked about the Spirit Sea Realm again. Unfortunately, it only talked about how difficult it was to condense the Spirit Sea.
It taught the later generations to find a kind of elixir called Pulo Grass or pellets of the Earth Grade like the Concentration Pellet. As for how to condense the Spirit Sea, there was nothing about it …
Even though Lu Li knew that the books on the first floor were of the lowest level, he was still disappointed.
He read one book after another patiently. When he reached the 28th book, his eyes finally lit up.
"Got it!"
He saw the way to condense the Spirit Sea in a yellowed booklet, and it was described in great detail.
He read it word by word as if he had found a treasure. He memorized all the steps in his mind.
"Squeak, squeak …"
When he was about to finish, the door was suddenly pushed open. The old maid stood at the door and said emotionlessly, "Time's up. If you want to continue, you need to spend another 2000 contribution points."
"Damn!"
Lu Li cursed in his mind. He looked at the old maid and begged, "One more time, just one more time."
"No!"
The old maid said with determination, "Either you leave now, or you spend another 2000 contribution points."
…
