With my nine meridians taken away, I will prove my invincibility with the Demon Seed!

After driving away Du Hua and the other two.

Qin Yi looked at the group of people who had gathered to watch the spectacle and said with a smile, "It's late at night, everyone should go home, okay?"

At this moment, a man walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Junior Brother Qin, let me introduce myself. My name is Jiang Cheng. My family, the Jiang family, ranks more than one hundredth among the thousand families under the Starry Sky Palace."

"I find you very pleasing to the eye. The moment I saw you, it felt like I was seeing a long-lost brother."

"You've just arrived at the Starry Sky Palace, so you're probably unfamiliar with everything and feeling a bit out of place. If you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me. I live not far from here, so let's keep in touch!"

Qin Yi smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to Jiang Cheng, saying, "Alright, I will definitely visit Senior Brother Jiang when I have time."

Another man approached and said, "Junior Brother Qin, let's get acquainted. My name is Ouyang Xiong, and I'm from the Starry Sky Palace's Sirius Squad. I wonder if you'd be interested in joining the Sirius Squad?"

Qin Yi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Thank you for the invitation, Senior Brother Ouyang, but I'm not very familiar with the situation here yet. I'll make a decision after I've become more familiar with it."

He had heard Bai Jing say that there were many cultivation teams among the disciples of the Starry Sky Palace.

These cultivation teams were not established by the Starry Sky Palace, but were formed by the disciples of the Starry Sky Palace themselves, and the Starry Sky Palace tacitly approved of the existence of such cultivation teams.

Members of the training team encourage each other in their practice, exchange experiences, and can also go out together to do missions and training. They help each other when they encounter problems.

However, Bai Jing didn't say much, and Qin Yi's understanding of the cultivation team was limited, so naturally he wouldn't make a decision so quickly.

"Since Junior Brother Qin wants to familiarize himself with the Starry Sky Palace, I'd be happy to give you a detailed explanation tonight. Don't worry, I'll be very gentle and attentive," a beautiful woman with a captivating figure said with a smile as she approached.

Qin Yi: "...Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister, but I have been traveling for many days and just fought a great battle. I am really tired and want to get some rest tonight."

The woman smiled and said, "No problem, I'll come find you again after you've rested. By the way, my name is Peng Yu, don't forget it."

Qin Yi finally managed to get rid of all of them.

He went back inside.

"They all treated me so well because they saw my potential, but what happened? They showed no sincerity whatsoever! They should at least have given me some kind of gift!"

"Du Yong, Huang Li, and that female senior sister whose chest I cleaved open and whose name I don't know are the ones who are sensible and send me resources."

He muttered a couple of things.

Qin Yi took out one hundred Yuan Crystals and placed them beside him. Then he swallowed a Three Pure Spirit Aperture Pill, calmed his mind, and began to cultivate.

Before I knew it, dawn had broken.

Qin Yi refined a Three Pure Spiritual Aperture Pill and absorbed one hundred Yuan Crystals. He had just broken through to the seventh level of Nirvana Realm and made significant progress. Although he did not break through, this perceptible improvement filled him with motivation.

He left his residence and headed straight for the Sword Cave of the Starry Sky Palace.

Next, it's time to practice swordsmanship!

Make use of all available resources and keep yourself moving forward on the path of martial arts at all times.

If you don't move forward, others will, so standing still is the same as moving backward!

A moment later, Qin Yi arrived at the Sword Cave.

The Sword Cave of the Starry Sky Palace is located in a mountain, resembling a cave.

Protector Liao Shanhe had already sent someone to register the reward for Qin Yi, so the guards at the Sword Cave checked Qin Yi's token and then let him pass.

Enter the Sword Cave.

Qin Yi felt as if he had entered a mysterious space filled with a sense of emptiness.

There were quite a few junior disciples of the Starry Sky Palace around.

These are all people who have come to the Sword Cave to choose sword techniques.

There are also some intermediate disciples.

However, Qin Yi did not see any of the senior disciples.

After all, this is only the first level of the Sword Cave, which contains sword techniques below the Heaven Rank.

For advanced disciples to master swordsmanship, they must at least be at the lower-level Heaven rank.

To enter the second level of the Sword Cave, disciples of the Starry Sky Palace must either become advanced disciples or, as junior or intermediate disciples, pass the guards' test on the first level of the Sword Cave.

Qin Yi didn't know what the so-called test was all about yet, and he was too lazy to find out.

First, make full use of this month to solidify your foundation in swordsmanship and further comprehend the profound state of unity between man and sword!

Qin Yi's entry caused no ripples whatsoever; no one even glanced at him, as everyone was busy choosing sword techniques to inherit.

The sword techniques passed down in the first level of the Sword Cave all exist in the form of sword energies.

Therefore, here, there are countless sword energies floating around, and at a glance, there are definitely no fewer than three thousand sword energies.

The sword energy of the Yellow Rank inherited sword technique is the weakest.

The sword energy of the Xuan-rank inherited sword technique is slightly stronger.

The sword energy of the Earth-rank inherited sword technique was bright and dazzling.

Qin Yi casually grabbed a faint wisp of sword energy and brought it to his face.

His spiritual power probed into it, and he immediately sensed the corresponding information.

"Low-grade Yellow Rank, Mountain-Opening Sword Technique, requires 10 Merit Points to exchange."

All sword techniques require Star Points to exchange for, but... Qin Yi can get them for free for the next month!

I want it!

Qin Yi took out his identity token and gently tapped it on the sword energy.

For anyone else, ten Star Points would be deducted instantly.

But Qin Yi didn't lose a single star point, and then the complete information about the Mountain Opening Sword Technique entered his mind.

continue!

Yellow-rank, low-grade, Flying Light Sword Technique, requires ten Star Points to exchange.

I want it!

Yellow Rank, Low Grade: Burning Fire Sword Technique, requires 10 Star Points to exchange.

Yellow-rank, mid-grade, Rolling Stone Sword Technique, requires fifty Star Points to exchange.

Yellow-rank superior grade, Flying Sword Technique, requires 200 Star Points to exchange.

Qin Yi selected one hundred sword techniques of the Yellow Rank in one go.

His actions have attracted increasing attention.

"Who's this kid?"

"Why do you only pick Yellow-rank sword techniques? Are you out of your mind?"

"And they did so much... Do they have so many Star Points they don't know what to do with them?"

To be honest, even the junior disciples of the Starry Sky Palace wouldn't look at sword techniques below the Earth Rank.

The Yellow-rank and Black-rank sword techniques in the Sword Cave are actually just for show.

But today, someone actually asked for dozens or even hundreds of these low-level sword technique inheritances in one go... This seems absurd and incomprehensible.

"I know who he is. He is Qin Yi, who joined the Starry Sky Palace this year with the highest score. He can freely choose the sword technique to inherit in the first level of the Sword Cave without deducting Star Points."

"No wonder..."

"But if this kid is going to choose, shouldn't he choose a low-rank sword technique? What's the use of these trash sword techniques?"

"Who knows..."

Regardless of what others said, Qin Yi selected one hundred Yellow-rank sword techniques and entered the Sword Cave, specifically the training room for practicing sword techniques.

The sword practice room also requires Star Points.

You get a thousand star points a day.

Many disciples of the Starry Sky Palace leave after exchanging for sword techniques, leaving them with fewer Star Points to use the sword practice room.

But Qin Yi's month is free!

Use it freely!

He took out his identity token, opened a sword practice room, went inside, and then closed the door, as if he were completely isolated from the outside world.

A group of people looked at the closed sword practice room with great envy.

"Just using the sword training room for a month costs 30,000 star points... and he can freely choose any sword technique to inherit. This kid is really having a blast!"

"But to use such a good opportunity to practice Yellow-Rank sword techniques is a complete waste, isn't it?"

A group of people couldn't understand Qin Yi's actions.

Inside the sword practice room, Qin Yi looked around.

Although it's called a room, it's actually a very large space, filled with a sharp, piercing aura of swordsmanship.

Practicing swordsmanship in this environment is indeed twice as effective with half the effort.

Qin Yi stopped wasting time and began to seriously practice the Yellow-Rank sword techniques.

His basic swordsmanship is already very solid.

However, he only knows two Yellow-rank sword techniques, which he obtained from Qin Yong when he returned to his spiritual spring dantian.

From then on, the sword techniques he practiced on his own became very advanced.

Now, Qin Yi understands the drawbacks of this situation.

It's like building an attic, but the attic is already quite tall.

He recently re-solidified the foundation.

But the first, second, and third floors of the attic... felt very unsettling.

He began to seriously practice the Yellow Rank sword technique!

With a solid foundation in basic swordsmanship and advanced swordsmanship experience, Yellow-rank swordsmanship was very simple for him; he could learn it almost at a glance. But even though it was simple, he practiced it very seriously.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

He has mastered and is proficient in all one hundred Yellow-Rank Sword Techniques.

Qin Yi has made further progress in achieving the state of perfect harmony between man and sword.

Three days ago, after about a hundred sword swings, one could enter a state of perfect harmony between man and sword once.

Now, on average, it takes eighty swings of the sword to enter a state of perfect harmony between man and sword.

After leaving the sword practice room, Qin Yi selected another hundred Xuan-level sword techniques and returned to the sword practice room to continue.

News of Qin Yi selecting a large number of Yellow-rank and Black-rank sword techniques in the Sword Cave spread quickly, sparking a heated discussion.

Many people felt that Qin Yi was wasting his time and such a good opportunity.

However, some high-ranking members of the Starry Sky Palace had different feelings after hearing about this. For example, at this moment, when Protector Liao Shanhe received the news, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"This kid has some ideas!" Liao Shanhe remarked.

"Grandpa, is there any explanation for doing this?" Liao Ping, Liao Shanhe's grandson, asked curiously.

Liao Shanhe laughed and said, "No one has ever chosen the low-level sword techniques in the Sword Cave, but they've always been there, and we even add some more from time to time. Do you think it's just to make up the numbers?"

"Low-level sword techniques may lack power, but they form the foundation of swordsmanship."

Liao Ping's eyes flashed, and he said, "Is Qin Yi laying the foundation?"

Liao Shanhe nodded and said, "The stronger the foundation, the greater the benefits. Everyone understands this principle, but very few people can actually put it into practice."

Liao Ping said, "Grandpa, shall I go too?"

Liao Shanhe shook his head and said, "You don't need to. You've built a very solid foundation since you were a child. Qin Yi is different. He comes from the Desolate Ancient Continent, so his foundation is naturally not that great. That's why he needs to do this."

"Understood," Liao Ping said.

…………

Time flies.

Qin Yi's privileges within the Sword Cave, on the last day.

In this month, he practiced one hundred Yellow-rank sword techniques, one hundred Profound-rank sword techniques, and one hundred Earth-rank sword techniques.

Others might think he's wasting his time, but only he knows how meaningful it is!

Now, on average, every ten sword strikes will trigger the state of man and sword as one!

Moreover, even without triggering the state of man and sword as one, the power has increased by at least 30% compared to a month ago when using the same power and moves!

"The day when I completely master the unity of man and sword is almost here!" Qin Yi's eyes sparkled, and he was in a very good mood.

He walked out of the sword practice room.

He had half a day left, and he planned to go and see what the test for the Sword Cave Guards was all about.

If you can get through, you can go to the second level of the Sword Cave!
