All the Major Sects and Noble Families would co to offer their congratulations.
Therefore, he waited half a month before bringing Jiang Muyu to pay a visit.
"Greetings, Elder Pei!"
Li Chang’an had a respectful expression as he presented a congratulatory gift.
After reaching Core Formation, Pei Yingyao’s aura had beco sharper than before, like a Treasure Sword about to be unsheathed.
Her eyes shifted slightly as she sized up Li Chang’an.
"Li Chang’an, why are you still at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishnt? Don’t tell you haven’t switched your Cultivation Technique?"
Back when Li Chang’an had just reached Foundation Establishnt, she had warned him.
The Ancient Technique was no longer suitable for the current Cultivation Immortality Realm, and he should switch to a New Technique if he had the chance.
Judging by his current state, Li Chang’an clearly hadn’t listened to her. He was still walking the path of the Ancient Technique. At nearly a hundred years old, he had yet to break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
"Elder, I unexpectedly obtained an Earth Grade Technique that’s a perfect fit for . It’s not a New Technique, however, so I am still following the path of the Ancient Technique."
"Do you have any idea how difficult it is to break through with an Ancient Technique? Even an Earth Grade Technique won’t change that... Forget it. You’ll learn the hard way."
Pei Yingyao lost interest. She knew Li Chang’an’s personality and understood that further persuasion would be useless, so she couldn’t be bothered to try.
After exchanging a few more words, her eyes shifted, and she noticed Jiang Muyu at Li Chang’an’s side.
"Li Chang’an, is she your disciple?"
"Elder Pei, Muyu is the descendant of an old acquaintance of mine."
Li Chang’an imdiately made the introduction.
Jiang Muyu played her part well, imdiately bowing deeply.
"This junior, Jiang Muyu, pays her respects to Elder Pei!"
"Jiang Muyu? To have a Late Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivation at such a young age, your talent must be quite good. Could it be that you have an Earth Spirit Root?"
"Replying to Elder, I do indeed have an Earth Spirit Root."
Jiang Muyu did not hide it and answered truthfully.
Pei Yingyao gave her another look, then sighed softly.
"Your talent is impressive, but it’s a sha you’re not a Sword Cultivator."
"Elder Pei, I have a Water Elent Spirit Root. I’m not suited to be a Sword Cultivator."
"That’s completely wrong. All of the Five Elents are suitable for a Sword Cultivator. Li Chang’an just doesn’t know any better. His current Cultivation is even lower than yours; there’s nothing he can teach you..."
As she spoke, Pei Yingyao’s tone held a hint of pity.
She clearly felt that Li Chang’an was leading a promising youth astray.
"The Yin Yang Sect, one of the Nine Ancient Major Sects, uses the Five Elents Sword Array as its Sect’s Foundation Technique. Many Golden Core Influences are aware of this, but Li Chang’an’s horizons are too limited. He wouldn’t know."
Hearing this, Li Chang’an’s interest was piqued.
He imdiately asked about the Five Elents Sword Array.
But Pei Yingyao only knew that the Five Elents Sword Array existed; she hadn’t obtained any of them.
’It seems Elder Pei doesn’t know as much as I do,’ Li Chang’an complained inwardly.
’After all, I already have two of the Sword Arrays.’
After a while, Pei Yingyao began to share her insights on Core Formation.
She knew why Li Chang’an had brought Jiang Muyu, so she explained in great detail.
"Li Chang’an, you listen in as well. Although you’ll never reach the Core Formation stage, you can relay it to any promising juniors you find."
"Thank you, Elder Pei."
Li Chang’an sat on a small stool, listening obediently.
Pei Yingyao patiently explained for a full three hours.
Both of them learned a great deal.
After she finished, Li Chang’an and Jiang Muyu thanked her again and then took their leave.
...
After returning to Changqing Mountain, Li Chang’an summoned Luo Yunshu.
Together, he and Jiang Muyu relayed the insights on Core Formation to Luo Yunshu.
After all, Luo Yunshu possessed a Top Grade Spirit Root, and her Spirit Charm had reached an astonishing seventy-one strands, only ten strands shy of an Earth Spirit Root. Her chances of reaching Core Formation in the future were high.
The reason Li Chang’an didn’t bring her to see Pei Yingyao was, of course, because it would have been inappropriate.
Bringing Jiang Muyu was one thing.
Bringing another person would have been going too far.
"In two and a half months, it will be Elder Pei’s Core Formation Ceremony. If you wish to go, you can attend as the head of the Luo Family."
Li Chang’an gave Luo Yunshu a few instructions.
For the next two months and more, he remained on Changqing Mountain, cultivating the Da Geng Golden Sword Formation.
’The Geng tal Sword Array is yang in nature, while the Yi Wood Sword Array is yin. If I combine them, they should form a Small Yin Yang Sword Array, its power far surpassing that of a single array,’ Li Chang’an pondered.
Using the Five Elents Mutual Production thod, he could convert his Wood Spiritual Power into Gold Elent Spiritual Power. Cultivating the Geng tal Sword Array was therefore not much of a problem.
Pei Yingyao had been right; being a Sword Cultivator wasn’t exclusive to those with a Gold Spirit Root.
All of the Five Elents were suitable for Sword Cultivation.
Li Chang’an quickly reached the Entry-Level, becoming capable of controlling nine Gold Elent Spiritual Swords.
’Controlling the Geng tal Sword Array with the Five Elents Mutual Production thod isn’t difficult, but it is ultimately a hassle. A pity I don’t have a Gold Elent Spirit Root,’ Li Chang’an lanted.
A Cultivator’s Spiritual Root isn’t necessarily of a single attribute.
So have Dual Spirit Roots, while others have Three, Four, or even Five Spirit Roots.
Back at the Immortal Sect’s entrance test, soone was found to have Earth and Wood Dual Spirit Roots.
That person’s Earth Spirit Root was Middle Grade, while their Wood Spirit Root was only Low Grade. Therefore, a Cyan Cloud Sect Elder advised them to follow the path of the Earth Elent.
This was the case for most Multi-Spirit Root Cultivators; they would determine their future cultivation path based on their highest-tier Spirit Root.
These Cultivators could convert the Spiritual Power in their bodies automatically, without needing the Five Elents Mutual Production thod.
This was the advantage of having multiple Spirit Roots.
’If I had a Gold Elent Spirit Root, cultivating the Geng tal Sword Array wouldn’t be this much of a hassle.’
It was said that the most perfect Spiritual Root was the ’Grand Five Elents Celestial Spirit Root.’ Soone who possessed it would have all Five Elents Spirit Roots, each one at the Celestial Spirit Root tier.
’It’ll be great if my Spiritual Root can even reach Celestial Grade. I shouldn’t be too greedy.’
Li Chang’an shook his head slightly, putting the matter of the perfect Spiritual Root out of his mind.
He held out his hands. In one was Geng tal, in the other, Yi Wood.
Two Sword Arrays took shape.
Both were Nine Swords Arrays, still at the Entry-Level.
Li Chang’an had a faint feeling that these two Sword Arrays could be combined with each other.
