After reading about Li Weitian's experiences, Lu Qing fell silent again.
He retracted his previous thought and realized that this person's luck was exceptionally bad.
If only he had lived longer, or if he had arrived here sooner.
He will have plenty of time to study the runes here.
In that case, perhaps he could gain more insights and break through to a level beyond the innate realm.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in this world.
Fate is so cruel; Li Weitian only found this jade-like cave when his life was nearing its end.
Ultimately, they had no choice but to fight to the death.
In the end, they lost the gamble.
This is the experience of seeing hope in moments of despair, only to fall into despair again in the end.
Li Weitian did not succumb to madness in the end; he was able to calmly record his last words, advising those who came after him to learn from his example.
Such demeanor is truly befitting of a martial arts master who has reached the pinnacle of innate perfection.
Even when death truly arrives, one can still face it calmly.
【...97%, 98%, 99%, 100%】
【The exercise simulation is complete. Would you like to begin learning?】
Just as Lu Qing remained silent, a notification appeared in his field of vision.
Perhaps because the cultivation method left by Li Weitian was quite profound, this time the cultivation method simulation took much longer than before.
Lu Qing looked at the prompt in her field of vision and silently selected "yes".
The next moment, countless pieces of information about cultivation techniques and insights surged into his mind once again.
Lu Qing closed his eyes, and it took him a long time to come out of his reverie.
"I see, so there are only innate cultivation techniques?"
Lu Qing's eyes held a look of understanding as he murmured to himself.
Indeed, the cultivation techniques left by Li Weitian in the jade slip were all innate level techniques, and they were also his proudest skills in life.
As for lower-level acquired cultivation techniques, there wasn't a single one.
Li Weitian is proud.
In his view, those qualified to read the information on his jade slip must at least be martial arts experts who have honed their divine soul power and entered the Innate Realm.
Such a martial arts master would never bother with a mere acquired cultivation technique.
He disdained to inscribe such a low-level cultivation technique in his inherited jade slip.
Li Weitian never expected that there would be an anomaly like Lu Qing in later generations, who could still read the information in the inheritance jade slip even without the power of the divine soul.
"The key to breaking through from the acquired to the innate realm lies in forging one's own spiritual power, using the spirit to sense the primordial energy of heaven and earth, breaking through barriers, and drawing energy into the body?"
After receiving the information about the cultivation technique, Lu Qing immediately understood the key points of breaking through from the acquired to the innate realm.
But even if you understand it, it's useless.
A strong body is essential for a strong spirit.
Only a sufficiently strong body can nurture a powerful soul.
To forge one's own divine soul power, the physical body must reach an extremely powerful level before there is even a slight possibility.
According to martial arts cultivation, one must reach the peak of the Acquired Realm, where one's Qi, blood, muscles, bones, and internal organs all reach the limits of the human body. Only by repeatedly tempering one's spirit through secret methods can one possibly break through the limits and comprehend the power of the soul.
Lu Qing is only at the minor completion stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, and is still far from the perfected stage of the Acquired Realm.
Therefore, although he has inherited Li Weitian's innate cultivation techniques, he is far from qualified to cultivate them.
He still needs to proceed step by step, cultivating until he reaches the Acquired Perfection stage before he can cultivate these Innate Techniques.
Regardless, Lu Qing's gains were still enormous.
At least with these few innate cultivation techniques, he will never lack cultivation methods again in the future.
The health-preserving boxing technique passed down by his master was already sufficient for him to cultivate to the internal organ realm.
Now that he has the innate cultivation technique, he only needs to focus on his cultivation. With the assistance of his supernatural abilities, achieving the innate level should not be a pipe dream.
With a very good mood, Lu Qing took Li Weitian's remains outside the valley, gave them a proper burial, and then returned to the cave.
After returning to the cave, he still did not touch the earth vein liquid.
Instead, he stood in front of the cave wall and began to observe the mysterious patterns carved on the jade-like cave wall.
In the jade slip he inherited, Li Weitian highly praised these mysterious patterns, calling them runes, and from them he gleaned a trace of the mysteries beyond the innate realm.
According to Li Weitian's dying words, if his lifespan were delayed and he had enough time to comprehend these runes, he would surely be able to break through his limits and reach the realm beyond the innate.
This inevitably piqued Lu Qing's curiosity about these mysterious patterns.
He wanted to test whether his special ability could reveal anything from it.
Activating his superpower, Lu Qing focused his mind and concentrated intently on observing the mysterious patterns.
They gazed at it for a long time.
A quarter of an hour passed, and just when Lu Qing thought that even his special ability couldn't decipher the mystery of these enigmatic patterns...
Finally, he saw a rich golden light emerge from the mysterious pattern.
【Array Runes: Mysterious runes inscribed by those with magical power, imbued with magical energy, capable of drawing upon and regulating the earth's energy, and gathering the essence of the earth's veins.】
【The Way of Runes is created by those with great supernatural powers who observe the patterns of all things in heaven and earth; they are born with a mysterious power that can communicate with all things.】
【The art of runes is infinitely varied; different runes combined can unleash all sorts of incredible powers.】
【Inheritance discovered. Should we perform a simulated download?】
Lu Qing was stunned.
Immediately, a surge of joy welled up in my heart.
He managed to keep his composure regarding the introduction to runes in the emerging note.
After all, the information left by Li Weitian had given him some mental preparation; these mysterious patterns possessed mysterious power.
But the last note was completely unexpected.
He never expected that these mysterious patterns would contain a legacy.
That's right, it's a legacy, not a technique.
Lu Qing noticed the terminology used for superpowers; those that could be called inherited must be very complete.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately chose to simulate the download.
Then, for the first time ever, he stared intently at the mysterious pattern before him.
【Starting simulated download, current progress: 1%, 2%...】
The progress bar in his field of vision was moving very slowly, but Lu Qing was not in a hurry at all.
The slower the ability simulation downloads, the more precious the inheritance contained within the runes.
When the progress bar in the field of view reached 10%, it stopped and did not jump any further.
Lu Qing paused for a moment, pondered for a moment, then moved to the other side of the cave wall and continued to stare at the runes on it.
Sure enough, not long after, the progress bar in the field of vision started jumping again.
In this way, whenever the progress bar stopped moving, Lu Qing would move to another location to view other runes.
After scanning all the visible runes in the cave, he finally saw the progress bar in his field of vision jump to the end.
【...97%, 98%, 99%, 100%】
【Simulation download complete. Do you wish to begin learning?】
Seeing the prompt in his field of vision, Lu Qing excitedly chose to study.
I overestimated myself. I'm a bit conflicted about the upcoming plot, which has wasted a lot of time. The extra chapter will have to wait until tomorrow.
