Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

Xia Xiaomo looked at the sword carefully. It was a very ordinary sword, so ordinary that it could be found everywhere. It was not a spiritual sword used by cultivators. As long as the outer disciples in the sect accumulated enough contribution points, they would give priority to exchanging it for a seventh-grade spiritual weapon.

Sword cultivators will switch to a seventh-grade spirit sword. Spirit swords are different from ordinary swords. They can more easily withstand the blessing of true energy. Spirit swords above the fourth grade even have their own consciousness. If they don't like their masters, they will not let them use them or will look for new masters.

Most sword cultivators aim to obtain a fourth-grade spiritual sword, a spiritual sword that will accompany them as they grow. Some sword cultivators even regard the spiritual sword as their spiritual companion.

"How about I give you a spiritual sword?" Xia Xiaomo took out a spiritual sword from her storage ring and placed it on the stone table. "Thank you for your care for the Great Tomb Secret Realm. I hope you won't refuse."

There were patterns engraved on the black scabbard with silver patterns. Xu Yeyu held the hilt with both hands and pulled it gently, and the magic sword was slowly pulled out of the scabbard.

This magic sword is three feet and eight inches long. The sword body is as green as water and the blade is shining. In the weak sunlight, the sword body emits a faint glow.

"This sword is called 'Bixia' and it is a sixth-grade spiritual sword."

He put the spirit sword back into the scabbard and tied it around his waist to show that he accepted Xia Xiaomo's feelings.

It is normal to give gifts to friends, which represents other people's thoughts.

"Thank you, Xiaomo. I'll take this sword."

The girl in white raised the corners of her mouth slightly to reveal a faint smile, the smile was like a gentle breeze blowing on her face. She thought Xu Yeyu would not accept this magic sword.

"Why is your realm still stuck at the half-step foundation building stage?"

Xu Yeyu also had this problem. He kept breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, but he always felt like something crucial was missing.

“I don’t know about this question either.”

The most difficult part of each realm is the breakthrough from the later stage to the next realm. For cultivators like Xu Yeyu who have one foot halfway into the foundation-building realm, generally speaking, they are not far from a breakthrough. He has already passed the most difficult stage, and all he has to do next is wait for an opportunity to break through.

Heavenly thunder will strike only when one begins to overcome tribulation in the Jindan stage, and that is when it will be the most difficult to break through.

"Perhaps the technique you are practicing has some flaws, which is why you are stuck in the Qi Refining Stage." Xia Xiaomo pondered for a moment and offered her opinion, "You can hand the technique over to the outer sect elders for review and let them determine if there are any problems. If the technique does have flaws, you can use your contribution points to exchange for a new technique."

"The skills are usually exchanged in parts. You can exchange for the first part of the foundation-breaking realm first, and then decide whether to continue practicing this skill. If you want to change to another skill, you only need to spend some time practicing it again."

Most of the independent practitioners who have not joined a sect basically do not have a good martial arts method. They may happen to encounter some opportunity and pick up an incomplete martial arts method to practice.

Xia Xiaomo felt that this possibility was becoming increasingly greater.

"I haven't practiced any martial arts, so there is no possibility that my martial arts are incomplete."

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows. A breeze blows, causing the leaves to sway gently.

In front of the stone table, Xia Xiaomo stared at Xu Yeyu closely, with only the rustling sound of the breeze.

After the question and answer, the two fell into silence. Xu Yeyu didn't understand why Xia Xiaomo suddenly stared at him closely after he said this. Was there anything wrong with what he just said?

Mortals who want to become cultivators must have spiritual roots, but only a very small number of people possess spiritual roots. It is an innate talent. Only those who possess spiritual roots are qualified to practice and embark on the path of cultivation leading to the immortal world.

The spiritual energy is like an invisible mist, permeating between heaven and earth.

Mortals, through the guidance of cultivation techniques, can draw in the surrounding spiritual energy, transform it into their own true energy, and reach the initial realm after comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth.

That is the Qi Refining Realm.

So after Xu Yeyu said that, Xia Xiaomo was shocked by his words. This person actually became a cultivator without practicing any techniques. How did he do that?

Only those powerful people who have lived for thousands of years can absorb spiritual energy directly without practicing any techniques. The person in front of her can actually be compared with those predecessors. This friend is even more powerful than she imagined.

Xia Xiaomo recovered from her shock and whispered to him, "Don't tell others that you entered the Qi Refining Realm without any skills. If it gets out, you will run into a lot of trouble."

Xu Yeyu nodded. He understood what she meant. No one could become a cultivator without any skills.

Is it because of the flower or because he doesn't belong to this world?

The girl in white took out an emerald green bead from her storage ring and placed it on the stone table.

Originally, she planned to use this wood spiritual energy bead to exchange contribution points with the outer sect elders.

In Sunset Sect, natural treasures, skills, magic weapons, etc. can be exchanged with the elders for contribution points, or bartered.

"I just mentioned one of the possibilities. To break through from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, you still need natural treasures and Foundation Establishment Pills." She continued, "This can replace the Foundation Establishment Pills to help you break through the Foundation Establishment Stage. This bead contains wood spirit energy and is one of the five great spirit beads."

The five major spirit beads include the gold spirit bead, wood spirit bead, water spirit bead, fire spirit bead and earth spirit bead.

"Except for the Fire Spirit Pearl and the Water Spirit Pearl, there are ways to obtain the remaining three spirit pearls." Xia Xiaomo pointed at the Wood Spirit Pearl on the stone table, "This is what I got by challenging the Tree Spirit Fairy Shrine. You need to defeat a tree spirit of the same realm as you. When you defeat that tree spirit, it will form this Wood Spirit Pearl."

The girl in white took a sip of tea and continued, “Earth Spirit Pearls are the most common spirit pearls. They are usually hidden in deep valleys or dense forests. When the spiritual energy condenses to a certain level, these earth spirit pearls will naturally form.

"Every six months, the Sunset Sect will offer twenty Earth Spirit Pearls to outer disciples at the Treasure Hall. The price is 500 contribution points. For outer disciples who are still unable to leave the mountain, this is a considerable contribution point."

"In order to prevent fellow disciples at higher realms from purchasing Earth Spirit Pearls and selling them to disciples at the Qi Refining Realm at high prices, Xiyang Sect stipulates that Earth Spirit Pearls can only be exchanged by outer disciples at the Qi Refining Realm, and each person is limited to purchasing only one."

Xu Yeyu nodded: "What about the Golden Spirit Pearl?"

"The Golden Spirit Pearl is obtained by climbing the hundred-step stone staircase in the Moonworm Valley Secret Realm. This secret realm opens once every four years and is only open to cultivators below the Golden Core stage. As long as you reach the 90th step of the secret realm, you will be granted the Golden Spirit Pearl.

"But there are very few people who can reach the last ten steps. Last time, only two disciples from Sunset Sect made it to the last ten steps."

Xia Xiaomo wanted to pour a cup of tea, but found that there was no tea left in the pot. Did the two of them drink so much tea?

"Capable cultivators will use one of the five spirit beads to break through the realm. This will lay a good foundation for future realms. The spirit sea will be wider than that of ordinary cultivators. If three of the spirit beads can be used to break through, the effect will be even better."

Xu Yeyu held the Wood Spirit Pearl and asked the biggest question: "Why is there no way to obtain the Fire Spirit Pearl and the Water Spirit Pearl?"

"The Immortal Temple was built by the monks. After they passed away, the Immortal Temple would collapse. The Immortal Temple that could obtain the Fire Spirit Pearl and the Water Spirit Pearl no longer exists."

Xu Yeyu touched the ring on his left hand, which contained the Fire Spirit Pearl and the Water Spirit Pearl. This meant that he could use the three spirit pearls to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
