Chapter 2: Observing the Sword Immortal and Condensing the Dao Fruit
This time, he absorbed the third wisp of Age Qi from the top courtesan, Fairy Yun Rou. However, this wisp of Age Qi was abnormal. It turned golden and automatically burned, bringing about a phenomenon. He could actually see the female Sword Immortal at such a close distance.
As the painting unfolded, his entire mind was pulled into it. He observed it from a third-person perspective as if he was watching a movie.
An Le remained silent. In fact, he could not make a sound either.
Inside the boudoir, the fragrance of rouge and pollen wafted through the air.
Fairy Yun Rou was wearing a thin shirt, revealing her shoulders. Her fair skin was as dazzling and eye-catching as snow. Further down was her proud and tall figure.
Unlike Fairy Yun Rou, who was riding her sword across the West Lake, Fairy Yun Rou\'s face was not covered by a veil, revealing a beautiful face.
It was said that very few people had seen Fairy Yun Rou\'s true appearance. Even if they spent tens of thousands of taels of silver and obtained a chance to board a flower boat, they would still see the veiled Fairy Yun Rou.
An Le did not expect to see the fairy\'s true appearance just like that.
It felt good to freeload…
He had saved a lot of money.
Of course, An Le only took a glance before his gaze was attracted by the green qi currents above her head.
What kind of position was this?
Inside the room, there seemed to be an invisible qi current surging. The door was clearly closed, but the gauze of the tent seemed to be blown by a hurricane, howling non-stop.
"She\'s cultivating!"
An Le immediately made a judgment. This unbelievable posture could only be explained by cultivation.
Could it be that the Age Qi could allow him to see Fairy Yun Rou\'s cultivation process?
However, other than seeing Fairy Yun Rou\'s pleasing face, it did not seem to have any other use.
After all, he had watched Fairy Yun Rou cultivate, so he couldn\'t let her learn cultivation as well.
An Le sighed regretfully in his heart. Perhaps it was the effect of the Age Qi that he had been looking forward to for a long time, but it did not seem to be satisfactory, causing his mood to be very low.
As he continued to watch Fairy Yun Rou cultivate, the aura in the room grew stronger and stronger. Faint blue qi currents appeared out of thin air, converging in Fairy Yun Rou\'s palm and seeping in bit by bit.
It spread all over Fairy Yun Rou\'s body, making her look dazzling.
Finally, Goddess Yun Rou opened her eyes. The violent wind in the room suddenly stopped.
The corners of the fairy\'s lips curled up slightly. She stretched her arms and let out an extremely seductive hum.
"My cultivation has finally broken through the Spirit Bone Realm and stepped into the Inner Core Realm. An 18-year-old Inner Core expert is rare even in the entire Great Zhao!"
Fairy Yun Rou was very happy and complacent as she muttered to herself.
"Yun Rou, you are the best! One day, you will definitely become the number one female Sword Immortal of Great Zhao! Charge, charge, charge!"
Fairy Yun Rou clenched her fists and punched repeatedly, full of fighting spirit.
On this day, Fairy Yun Rou, who had made a breakthrough in her cultivation, was the happiest in the world.
However, An Le was dumbfounded by her silly appearance. It turned out that the extremely cold courtesan, Fairy Yun Rou, had such a cute side to her that no one had ever seen before.
After seeing Fairy Yun Rou\'s innocent appearance, the scene in front of him began to slowly dissipate. In the end, the painting closed.
The wisp of Golden Age Qi disappeared like a burning incense.
...
The noise in the surroundings returned to normal. Night fell, and the lights gradually dimmed.
An Le\'s eyes regained clarity, but he was recalling what he had seen just now.
He saw the moment Fairy Yun Rou broke through in her cultivation. She was an 18-year-old Inner Core expert and was incomparably arrogant. Did she see that achievement as a moment of pride?
In fact, this was indeed something to be proud of. Even though An Le could not cultivate, he had some understanding of cultivation.
An 18-year-old Inner Core expert was enough to look down on the entire Great Zhao.
However, why would a prodigy who attained the Inner Core at the age of 18 become a courtesan on a flower boat? Wasn\'t this raising the overall standard of the industry and dragging the other courtesans to their deaths?
Although the title of a courtesan sounded good, she was still a prostitute after all. In the eyes of many people, it was a cheap job.
"Perhaps this Fairy Yun Rou… contains a secret that no one knows about."
"Even if it really contains a secret, it\'s not something a mortal like me can investigate."
An Le was not too conflicted about her identity. He thought of something and a screen appeared in front of him.
...
[Name: An Le]
[Age Qi: 2 wisps]
[Age Dao Fruit: Cultivation Genius (0/10)]
[Note: Cultivation Genius (Dao Fruit): When cultivating, the speed can be increased by two times. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be sensed more easily and the level of comprehension can be increased.]
...
His pupils constricted slightly, and the light screen changed. A wisp of Age Qi had been consumed, and the Golden Age Qi that he had just absorbed had indeed disappeared.
In the [Age Dao Fruit] column, the words "Cultivation Genius" appeared.
In other words, he condensed the Age Dao Fruit, Cultivation Genius, the moment he saw Fairy Yun Rou\'s Inner Core breakthrough.
Looking at the description of the Cultivation Genius Dao Fruit, An Le was pleasantly surprised.
He took a deep breath impatiently and closed his eyes slightly. He had indeed sensed something different.
There was a unique qi current moving between heaven and earth.
It was the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
It was said that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth filled every corner of the world, and only cultivators could sense it.
Those with talent could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refine it into their bodies, and step into cultivation.
Those without talent could not even sense it, just like An Le in the past.
He had naturally tested that his body did not have any cultivation talent, so he was arranged by his family to study.
The original An Le was quite talented in studying. He passed the village examination and passed the Imperial Examination. He came to the capital to participate in the Spring Quarter Examinations and wanted to advance to List B.
Although the scholars on List B were not as good as those on List A, they could still become officials. Although they could not become high-ranking officials, nothing was absolute. If they were recognized by a big shot, they still had a chance to climb high and look far.
But now, An Le could sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This meant that he had the talent to cultivate!
An Le\'s heart surged as he kept thinking.
He gradually guessed how to use the light screen.
The Age Qi might be recording the moment when a person\'s emotions fluctuated violently.
Emotions constantly fluctuated as a person grew up. A person\'s life was like a calm river, and the fluctuating emotions were like waves in a river.
There were highlights, depression, anger, and helplessness. These moments might be recorded by the Age Qi.
He, An Le, might be able to see these moments through the Age Qi and condense the Age Dao Fruit.
"Hahaha, no matter what, I, An Le, can cultivate now!"
An Le couldn\'t help but laugh out loud.
On the embankment of the West Lake, there were many people. An Le stood in the vast crowd and grinned to vent the excitement and excitement in his heart.
In this vast world, the people of the world were like mayflies that entrusted themselves to the heavens and the earth, a tiny speck in the vast ocean. But if one was able to cultivate, then one would have the chance to ascend into the heavens and live a carefree and brilliant life.
He suddenly raised the wine pot and kept pouring wine into his mouth. The wine flowed down his throat and into his chest.
An Le, on the other hand, continued to chuckle as he walked forward.
The night was dark.
The green-clothed youth drank his wine and his figure entered the dim light of the lanterns.
...
...
The jug of wine was emptied, and the evening breeze woke An Le up from his drunken state.
He arrived at a bookstore. Although An Le had the Cultivation Genius Dao Fruit and could cultivate, he knew nothing about cultivation and had no way to cultivate.
Therefore, he came to the bookstore.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore was on the counter, counting something under the light of a lamp. The beads and plates were clattering.
An Le stepped in and immediately attracted the shopkeeper\'s attention. "Sir, the shop is closed. Come back tomorrow to buy books."
He thought for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper, are there any cultivation enlightenment books for sale in the bookstore?"
The shopkeeper was stunned. He raised the lamp in his hand and carefully sized up An Le. Although he looked like a young man, he was still a little old when it came to cultivation enlightenment.
"Cultivation is taught in various academies. You didn\'t cultivate at that time, so you can\'t cultivate now."
The shopkeeper smiled.
"However, the bookstore sells books. Of course, there are cultivation initiation books issued by Great Zhao. If you want them, I\'ll get someone to prepare them. You can come and get them tomorrow."
When An Le heard this, he brushed his green clothes and cupped his hands. "Thank you, shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper held a lantern in one hand and a brush in the other. He chuckled and waved his hand. "Sir, you\'re too polite."
However, An Le changed the topic and said, "However, I have an urgent need tonight. I wonder if you can sell the book to me now?"
The shopkeeper was stunned. He frowned and was about to refuse.
However, An Le said seriously, "I can pay more."
The shopkeeper swallowed his words and smiled as he changed his words. "Please wait a moment."
The shopkeeper held the lamp and entered the inner room. After a while, he found a book with a blue cover.
"\'Enlightenment Records of Great Zhao\'s Cultivation\'. This is the only book related to cultivation that is sold in this shop. It\'s issued by the Imperial Court. It\'s very useless to cultivators who have truly stepped into cultivation. If you want it, please pay me two taels of silver," the shopkeeper said.
Two taels of silver for a book. It was not expensive, but it was not cheap either. It should be the increased price for not waiting.
An Le did not bargain. He was anxious to find a way to cultivate, so he poured out two pieces of silver from his money bag without hesitation and handed them to the shopkeeper.
After weighing it on a small scale, the shopkeeper even returned a few copper coins to An Le.
An Le took the books and returned to his room in the inn. He lit the lamp and began to read the books.
The "Enlightenment Records of Great Zhao\'s Cultivation" was actually not created by the Great Zhao Imperial Court. Instead, it followed the previous Imperial Court and modified the original foundation of the cultivation enlightenment method.
The book introduced a cultivation method called the Qi Drawing Breathing Technique. It was a very basic cultivation method.
In addition, there was a set of fist techniques called "Zhao Zu\'s Long Fist". An Le had just seen this domineering reputation and was extremely excited. After flipping through it, he understood that this "Zhao Zu\'s Long Fist" was indeed a martial art created by the founding Emperor of the Great Zhao Imperial Court. However, it had been edited to the point where only three punches were left. He instantly lost his enthusiasm.
It could be said that any cultivator of Great Zhao could at least learn three punches of Zhao Zu\'s Long Fist.
Just like that, Zhao Zu\'s reputation rose.
This Zhao Zu\'s Long Fist could even be considered Great Zhao\'s broadcast gymnastics.
With the augmentation of the Cultivation Genius Dao Fruit, An Le read it once under the light. He had more or less comprehended Zhao Zu\'s Long Fist (Enlightenment Version).
An Le wasn\'t in a hurry to punch. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes slightly. He followed the circulation route of the Qi Drawing Breathing Technique to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Inhale, exhale… At first, An Le was still a little rusty. After a few repetitions, An Le\'s breathing became smoother.
However, although it was smooth, An Le had never been able to capture the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
He frowned deeply.
Suddenly, a light screen appeared in front of him, and An Le couldn\'t help but scan it.
[Name: An Le]
[Age Qi: 2 wisps]
[Age Dao Fruit: Cultivation Genius (0/10 wisps)]
[Cultivation Technique: Qi Drawing Breathing Technique (0 wisp)]
...
An Le was stunned for a moment before he was overjoyed.
On the screen, there was an additional column!
The function of this light screen could actually continue to be developed!
