PS: Update complete. I've really become Xiao Si Geng. I'm so sorry!
From the first level to the fifth level, it was a piece of cake for him.
However, it was not so easy to reach the sixth level.
It required two types of inner energy to circulate at the same time. It was not a problem for Chu Li as he could multitask. The key was where the two types of inner energy came from.
He realized that the Light Blade was not powerful enough if he split the inner energy into two and had them flow separately to the blade. It was not even as powerful as the fifth level.
It was obvious that he had cultivated it wrong. The two types of inner energy could not be from the same source and needed different types of inner energy.
Chu Li smiled after some thought. It might be difficult for others but it was not difficult for him.
The two types of spiritual energy entered his body. One followed the Crescent Cryptic while the other followed the Divine Light Technique. After condensing into their own inner energy, the two types of inner energy followed the sixth level of the Light Blade Technique.
"Chi!" With a soft whistle, the pebble in his hand disappeared and reappeared on the stone wall. With a muffled bang, a deep pit appeared on the stone wall.
Chu Li arrived in front of the stone wall and studied the pit.
Although the stone wall was weathered by wind and rain and was not as hard as normal stones, the fact that it was so deep and there were no cracks around the pit showed that the inner energy condensed in the pebble was strong and violent.
Such power was worthy of being the sixth level.
Unfortunately, he could not use the Crescent Cryptic because he could not expose it.
With that thought, he activated his Light-body Technique and Time Steps to the extreme. He was much faster than when he came to Gale City.
The next evening, he returned to the thatched cottage on Small Light Peak.
Under the setting sun, the small cottage on the peak was dyed a rose color as it stood proudly in the howling wind.
He could not help but feel a sense of familiarity when he saw the cottage. The scenery had not changed.
He stood in front of the cottage and let out a long whistle.
Soon, Li Ruolan fluttered over.
She wore a purple gown and a white veil covered her face, revealing only a pair of charming eyes.
When she saw Chu Li, her charming eyes flashed and she asked in surprise, "Why are you back?"
"I'm looking for your help, Miss Ruolan," Chu Li replied.
"What help?" Li Ruolan approached him. Her purple gown fluttered in the wind and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose.
Chu Li gestured for them to enter the house.
The two entered the small room that was as warm as spring. One sat on the couch, and the other sat on the stone stool in front of the couch.
"There's no one here yet?" Chu Li asked.
"Do you like this place?" Li Ruolan smiled and said, "You can keep it here if you like it."
Chu Li was surprised. "Can I keep it?"
Li Ruolan said, "As long as you make enough contributions, you'll be able to claim this Small Light Peak as your own, and no one else will be able to enter."
"What kind of contribution do I need?" Chu Li quickly asked.
This Small Light Peak was filled with spiritual energy and was the best place for cultivation. Although it was not as good as the Spirit Cranes Peak, it was still considered a top-notch place in the outside world.
"You'll have to ask the Saint about that," Li Ruolan said with a smile. "Let's get down to business."
"When I'm cultivating the sixth level of the Light Blade Technique, I'll need two heart techniques," Chu Li said. "You've only learned the Divine Light Technique now, so you'll need another heart technique."
"You've already reached the sixth level?" Li Ruolan was surprised.
Chu Li revealed a proud expression. "It's very fast to learn this."
"You can't just cultivate heart techniques." Li Ruolan hesitated for a moment before she said, "Accuracy is very important. If you can't hit your target, no matter how powerful your flying blades are, it'll be useless."
Chu Li smiled. "I've been practicing flying stones since I was young, so I can hit birds with small stones!"
"I see …" Li Ruolan slowly nodded.
Zhao Dahe was really lucky. He had trained his aim since he was young, so it was much easier for him to practice the Light Blade Technique. All the disciples in the Sacred Church had to spend two to four hours every day to practice target shooting when they practiced the Light Blade Technique.
"Can I cultivate another heart technique?" Chu Li asked.
Li Ruolan said, "I'll discuss this with the Saint."
"Hurry up and go." Chu Li said, "I'm in a hurry to cultivate the Light Blade Technique, so I can go back and kill Tan Hu and Meng Wu!"
Li Ruolan pursed her lips into a smile before she nodded and turned to leave.
—
Chu Li sat on the stone bed and cultivated. It was exceptionally quiet as he sat there, and it felt as if time had stopped.
He suddenly missed Xiao Qi and Xiao Shi. They should be having dinner in the residence at this time, and it should be very lively, but he was all alone here.
There was a knock on the door. Li Ruolan was standing outside.
Chu Li went forward to open the door and smiled.
Li Ruolan was dressed in a bluish-white gown and stood elegantly under the moonlight. The white veil on her face had been removed, revealing her charming and fair face. "This is the heart technique that the Saint gave you. Cultivate it well."
She took out a thin booklet from her sleeve and handed it to Chu Li.
Chu Li took it and looked at it. The words "Great One Technique" were written on the cover.
He flipped through it carefully and shook his head helplessly. Looking at the densely packed red lines, he knew that the Saint knew his unique ability very well and that he was good at cultivating complex heart techniques.
Li Ruolan pursed her lips and smiled. "The Great One Technique is very powerful. Even if it's used alone, it's not something that can be compared to ordinary heart techniques."
"Thank you, Saint," Chu Li said.
Li Ruolan smiled. "The Saint said that this heart technique is very compatible with the Divine Light Technique, and it can maximize the power of the Light Blade Technique."
Chu Li sighed. "It's a little difficult to cultivate."
"It won't be a problem for you," Li Ruolan said. "The Saint said that you have a chance of perfecting it."
Chu Li chuckled. "Really? I can cultivate the Light Blade Technique? "
"Yes." Li Ruolan nodded. "So far, only one person has perfected the Light Blade Technique, and that's the Saint. Even the Bishop hasn't perfected it!"
Chu Li puffed out his chest. "Then I'll be the second!"
Li Ruolan rolled her eyes at him. "Then you should work hard. I'm leaving. I'll bring you food tomorrow."
Chu Li quickly replied, "Okay."
"The Saint said that you can't stay here for more than three days," Li Ruolan said. "Otherwise, you'll give up."
"Sigh … Alright." Chu Li shook his head helplessly.
Li Ruolan pursed her lips into a smile and left.
Chu Li flipped through the Great One Technique and imprinted it in his mind, so he sat on the bed to cultivate.
The Great One Technique's heart technique was complicated, but it was easy for him.
Soon, he had completed a circulatory cycle, and a faint, warm force was produced. After a few more circulatory cycles, the warm force became stronger. When this force flowed through his meridians, it felt like dew rolling on the ground. It was unusually comfortable.
He walked out of the house and picked up a small stone to activate the sixth level of the Light Blade Technique. A trace of the Divine Light Technique's inner energy and a trace of the Great One Technique's inner energy circulated respectively before converging on his hand. The small stone in his hand suddenly disappeared.
"Tss!" An extremely soft sound was heard. The small stone was embedded in a large rock in the distance. It was almost silent, and the large rock was like tofu.
Chu Li was secretly surprised by the speed. It was as if it could travel across space.
He picked up another small stone and activated it. The small stone disappeared again, and the next moment, it appeared on a tree. It silently sank into the tree and almost disappeared.
