After traveling to the world of cultivation, I rely on the game system to survive

"It's just a small favor." Xie Changan stopped and shook his head, his face serious again, "Call me Uncle Master, don't be rude."

Pei Nian pouted and muttered softly, "Why are you acting like an elder? You're only three years older than me. And there's still someone who insists on calling himself old."

Xie Changan pretended not to hear and only reminded them lightly: "You have just entered the Sword Sect, so you should concentrate on practicing and not worry about other things." After saying that, he raised his hand, and the sword light flashed and disappeared into the sky.

Xie Changan went straight to the Taiqing Palace. He bowed earnestly to a middle-aged handsome man with an immortal appearance and a Taoist aura: "Master Brother."

This handsome middle-aged uncle was none other than the Sword Sect's leader, Taiwu Zhenjun. "Little Chang'an, have you finished your morning lessons? I've told you many times that we brothers don't need to be so polite." Taiwu was not a very serious person, on the contrary he was very amiable.

However, the only people who can make Taiwu harmonious are a few of his close fellow disciples, and he still has to maintain the dignity of the sect leader in front of outsiders.

Xie Changan said sternly, "The order of seniority must prevail, and etiquette cannot be abolished!"

Taiwu knew that his junior fellow apprentice always followed the rules, so he stopped discussing the topic and asked about his purpose instead.

"Senior brother, why do you want me to teach at the academy this time? The Jindan cultivators in the sect can be competent for these basic knowledge." Xie Changan was puzzled.

Tai Wu chuckled and explained, "Junior brother, you were born with a sword heart and have been focused on the way of the sword since you were young. You are living well under the care of your master and brothers."

Tai Wu changed the subject: "However, the world of cultivation is not a friendly and loving one. There are all kinds of suffering and injustice in this world." He poured Xie Changan a cup of tea and said, "Just treat this class as a kind of training."

On the other side, Pei Nianyi and Xia Chen returned to the courtyard.

Pei Nianyi hurried to fetch water. Although Xie Changan used the Dust Cleansing Technique, she still felt that her body was smelly and dirty and needed to be washed with water.

Xia Chen grabbed her bucket and said, "I'll go get you some water. You can rest first."

Someone was willing to do it for him, so Pei Nianyi naturally waited for the hot water with peace of mind. My dear brother! Hehe.

Xia Chen worked tirelessly to fill the tub with hot water, then pushed Pei Nianyi into the room and closed the door. "Xiaoyi, soak for a while. I'll talk to you."

Pei Nian nodded slightly, then remembered that Xia Chen couldn't see, so she quickly replied, "Xia Chen, go ahead and talk, I'm listening." She pricked up her ears while soaking in the bathtub.

Xia Chen outside the door thought and thought, not knowing how to start. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said directly: "Xiaoyi, do you know why a single spiritual root is the most qualified spiritual root?"

Pei Nianyi understood what Xia Chen was going to say. He was worried about her. The corners of her lips curled up and her almond eyes were full of smiles. It felt so good to have someone care about her.

She answered seriously: "Xia Chen, don't worry about me. I understand, don't worry. I will try my best to keep up with you."

Xia Chen knew that Pei Nianyi understood, so he stopped disturbing her bath and left the yard.

After Xia Chen's reminder, Pei Nianyi began to think about his situation.

There is only so much spiritual energy in the world, and cultivators need spiritual energy to practice. A cultivator with one spiritual root only needs to absorb one kind of spiritual energy to break through, while a cultivator with two spiritual roots needs to absorb two kinds of spiritual energy to break through. And so on, a cultivator with five spiritual roots needs to absorb five kinds of spiritual energy to break through.

The more spiritual roots one has, the slower the cultivation process. A single spiritual root is the fastest to cultivate and it is easier to achieve success.

To a certain extent, the quality of spiritual roots determines the future achievements of a cultivator.

Of course, nothing in the world is absolute. A person with five spiritual roots and a firm heart for the Tao can also achieve the great Dao, but luck and opportunity are also indispensable. More cultivators with five spiritual roots will never be able to break through the Golden Core Realm in their entire lives.

Although Pei Nianyi succeeded in drawing Qi into her body today, the speed at which her five spiritual roots absorb spiritual energy will become slower and slower, and she will eventually be surpassed by cultivators with a single spiritual root.

As a cultivator with thunder spiritual roots, Xia Chen's cultivation speed is extremely fast. He was worried that Pei Nian would be sad because of this sense of gap, so he sent her back today.

Xia Chen's worries are indeed an objective fact, and Pei Nianyi has to face this problem squarely.

If you want to go further on the road to immortality, the absorption of spiritual energy is an insurmountable hurdle.

Pei Nianyi had no intention of taking a bath at this time. She changed into her disciple's uniform, sat cross-legged, and the spiritual energy in her body began to circulate unhindered.

The spiritual energy circulated throughout the body and finally returned to the Dantian. Pei Nian called out to Daji: "Little Daji, is there any technique that can speed up the absorption of spiritual energy?"

"Yes, Master." Daji, who was ready at the drop of a hat, opened the store interface and pointed to the first few rows of techniques, introducing them. "These are all Heaven-level techniques. The speed at which they absorb spiritual energy is comparable to that of a top-grade single spiritual root."

Pei Nian looked over and was blinded by a row of numbers 9999.

Excuse me, goodbye! She doesn't deserve it! Pei Nianyi closed the interface without hesitation.

Purchasing skills from the system is not feasible for the time being, so is it possible to improve the basic skills of the Sword Sect by myself?

If successful, the efficiency of practicing will be greatly improved, and you may even get contribution points from the sect.

The girl confidently opened the technique.

An hour later, Pei Nian threw the martial arts technique under the bed while cursing.

The work of improving the exercises is indeed a little difficult, and there is no happy time to slack off and muddle through.

There was only one last attempt left, and Pei Nian sighed.

It is easier said than done to keep the body in a state of good luck at all times.

Pei Nianyi must maintain her luck. Whether she is walking, eating, or sleeping, the spiritual energy in her body circulates continuously.

At the beginning, it was difficult for Pei Nianyi to do two things at once. She could hardly maintain a complete cycle of luck while being distracted by other things.

To this end, Pei Nianyi summoned the same determination he had put into studying for the college entrance examination. After spending countless hours, he finally saw some results.

Now, even when Pei Nianyi breathes, the spiritual energy in her body can circulate freely.

She can do it, Pei Nianyi felt confident again.

At this time, more than half a year had passed since Pei Nianyi drew Qi into his body. Pei Nianyi had already broken through the third level of Qi Refining, and his cultivation speed was similar to that of Xia Chen and Su Huaining.

Everyone just thought that she had a high level of comprehension and was in the early stages of cultivation, so she didn't need much spiritual energy. Therefore, no one doubted her speed of cultivation.

Today is Xie Changan's sword class.

The handsome young man stood tall in front of the lecture hall. Although he had been teaching for more than half a year, the students were still unconsciously attracted to him.

Pei Nianyi admired Uncle Xie's beauty in his heart and listened attentively to the class.

"Now that you have entered our Sword Sect, you should be aware of some of the sect's rules. Our Sword Sect's various branches have different teachings. The inner sect has seven branches, and the sword tradition is passed down by the masters of each branch."

Xie Changan paused for a moment and then said solemnly, "The academy's swordsmanship class only teaches the basics of swordsmanship. The basics are of paramount importance. You should practice diligently and not slack off."

A brave disciple asked, "Why doesn't Master-Uncle teach me the Sword Sect's sword techniques?"

Xie Changan patiently explained, "Different sword techniques have different requirements for spiritual roots and comprehension. Choosing a sword technique that suits your spiritual roots will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and vice versa."

"The sword-dancing field next to the academy is where outer disciples practice swordsmanship." As Xie Changan spoke, he led the disciples to the sword-dancing field.

Groups of disciples were scattered around the Sword Dance Terrace, practicing their sword skills, and some were fighting in pairs.

"The Sword Sect regards the sword as a symbol of righteousness. Those who practice swordsmanship must be able to distinguish right from wrong. Even if there is no sword in the hand, there must be a sword in the heart." After Xie Changan finished speaking, he casually made a sword flower and demonstrated his swordsmanship.
