Yun Heng was too fast. By the second day, he had already moved out a bunch of Mystic Daoist classical texts. Yi Qing thought that the texts would be about the different techniques, but they were actually filled with different blueprints for talismans. There were minor talismans which did not have any practical use – like the Dust-Gathering Talisman and Acceleration Talisman – and there were major talismans which were mainly used in attacks – like the Lightning Charm and Fire Talisman. All kinds of talismans could be found in the texts.

　　“I just want to understand how your cultivation is different from mine. It’ll be enough if you just show me your basic techniques?” Yi Qing explained, thinking that Yun Heng probably misunderstood him.

　　“But… these are it!” Yun Heng nodded. “All the talismans and techniques that are part of the Mystic cultivation can all be found here.”

　　“These!” Yi Qing once again scanned the books on the table. “Aren’t there also techniques that allow you to draw Qi into your body?”

　　Yun Heng stared back at him blankly. “What do you mean by that?”

　　“…” Yi Qing suddenly felt like something was wrong. “Have you never sucked spirit Qi into your body?”

　　“Spirit Qi?” Yun Heng was clearly confused now.

　　“How do you normally draw your talismans?” Yi Qing tried to switch tactics.

　　“Oh, we just need a sensing of the heavens and the earth. Let me demonstrate.” He immediately retrieved a talisman paper as well as paint and stones so that he could demonstrate for Yi Qing. First, he burned some incense. Then, with an extremely somber look, he picked up his brush and began to write on the paper.

　　Yi Qing looked over with suspicion. He realized that his spirit Qi was not even stirring. The spirit Qi from the surroundings, however, flowed toward the brush and stuck on the paper. Within seconds, a low-level talisman appeared on the table.

　　-_-|||

　　“All done.” Yun Heng set his brush back down and looked pleased with himself. “Without much effort, I have created a Dust-Removing Talisman.”

　　Yi Qing: “…”

　　He was a Soul Formation Supremacy after all. Did he have to look so proud after creating just one Dust-Removing Talisman?

　　Suddenly, Yi Qing understood. These Mystic cultivators did not… know how to activate their own spirit Qi? Then how did he even become a Soul Formation cultivator?

　　After some thought, Yi Qing conjured a seal so that all the spirit Qi in the surroundings gathered to form temporary spirit-measuring beads. He reached out to Yun Heng and said, “Put your hands on these beads.”

　　Yun Heng paused. Although he did not quite understand what Yi Qing was trying to do, he obliged.

　　The next moment, the measuring beads showed displayed five colors that overlapped to form one body.

　　“Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root!” Yi Qing jumped. No wonder…

　　The Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root was quite similar to the other elemental spirit roots, but they were two different extremes. It was much better than any ordinary elemental spirit roots. The Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root could absorb all five different types of spirit Qi, but the spirit roots would mix them all up into one body. In other words, they could absorb any kind of spirit Qi, but their bodies did not need to separate between the different types before they could use it. This type of spirit root was the best among all.

　　The more important thing was people with Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root necessarily had five-elemental spirit bodies. Their bodies were especially sensitive to spirit Qi, so that they did not even need to consciously absorb spirit Qi. Spirit Qi would automatically gather in their bodies. Given the high quality of this man’s body, automatic absorption of the spirit Qi from all around would not case a bottleneck. It was no wonder that he had become a Soul Formation without much effort.

　　“Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by ‘spirit root’?” Yun Heng was still confused. He could not understand what Yi Qing was talking about.

　　Yi Qing frowned and looked at him with a mixed expression. It seemed that the situation was more serious than he had thought. It was not as simple as handing them the Reincarnation Array and Death Surpassing Technique.

　　They had to start right from the beginning!

　　He turned to glance at the Mystic cultivators who would glance into the inn from outside from time to time. He sighed. This was such a troublesome matter. He had to think about how best to do these things.

　　After explaining the situation to Yun Heng very briefly, they agreed that they would tell the rest of the Mystic cultivators what was going on the next day. Then they would invite all of them back.

　　“Sect Master…” Yi Qing looked over to the person who was gnawing at her fruits by the side. “What should we do now?” If Yi Qing read the situation right, this little world’s cultivators were seriously lacking in skill. If they wanted to solve the problem of the strange ghosts, they would likely have to start by teaching them the basics – how to gather spirit Qi into their bodies.

　　“Why not…” Shen Ying began seriously. “Give Father Niu a call?” It sounded like they had to set up a school? This would not be the first time, anyway.

　　Yi Qing paused, his eyes brightening. That was a great idea! Father Niu had the most experience in teaching disciples.

　　He immediately sent out a transmission amulet. A moment later, a familiar figure jumped out of the amulet.

　　“Get lost!” He had just finished telling Lonemoon the situation when Lonemoon shut him up. He glared at the two of them and said, “They can’t cultivate – what does that have to do with me? Can you stop giving me so much trouble? You want me to go down and start a school? Do you think I don’t have enough to do over here?”

　　“But…”

　　“You can go ahead and teach if you want to! Why are you asking me?”

　　Yi Qing kept quiet, not knowing how to respond.

　　Shen Ying tilted her head and said, “Father Niu, you are the expert over here.”

　　“Get lost!” Lonemoon rolled his eyes. He looked to their left and right. “Where are Yu Hong and Little Black? What exactly are the two of you doing down there?”

　　“Er… Stop being so caught up in all these details.”

　　“Details my ass. You didn’t freaking look for them, did you?” Lonemoon exposed them immediately. “Hurry up and bring them back. The two of you can settle everything else.”

　　“Oh.” Shen Ying narrowed her eyes and sighed. “Alright, there are so many people in this world who have not yet learned how to cultivate. They don’t know what they’re missing either. Chef…” She patted him. “You can think about how to teach them.”

　　Yi Qing paused, as if suddenly realizing something. He nodded. “Yes, Master.”

　　“Wait!” Indeed, Lonemoon interrupted. “What do you mean they have never cultivated?”

　　“There are no cultivators in this entire world – that’s what she means,” Yi Qing explained. He added, “Among these people, there are even some with the Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root. Yet, no one here knows how to cultivate. It’s… such a pity.”

　　He sighed long and deep, completely out of character.

　　The smart Father Niu’s mind became filled with the idea of people with the Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root. Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root! A pitiful small world with little spirit Qi was harboring people with the Five-Elemental Mixed Spirit Root. The place was overflowing with so much potential. They even had these types of spirit roots – that means there were people of good-quality bodies walking all around on the streets!

　　“They really don’t know how to train with spirit Qi?”

　　“Of course, come and take a look if you don’t believe us!”

　　Lonemoon looked at them suspiciously. Although he knew they were doing this on purpose, he could no longer suppress the excitement he felt in his heart. There was not one cultivator in the entire small world. That meant that there were many people with great potential who were just waiting for him to choose them. That meant that Lonemoon would be able to teach them in any way he wanted. That meant… there would soon be a world full of sword cultivators!

　　(⊙v⊙)

　　Lonemoon turned around and saw a sect full of golden barbies…

　　“Master, are we going now? Your disciple’s cultivation technique may not be suitable for them, but I can give it a shot.”

　　“Oh.” Shen Ying nodded. They were just about to step out.

　　“Stop right there, the both of you!” Lonemoon glared at the two people who were obviously hooked on acting. He pursed his lips. “Are you almost done? Wait right there for me, let me get ready. I’ll be there tomorrow!” If he allowed Shen Ying, the cheat, to get started on those cultivators, Lonemoon was sure that there would be a second Invincible Sect in that small world

　　“Yes, Father Niu! No problem, Father Niu!” The two of them replied obediently.

　　Lonemoon tutted. The figure disappeared from the talisman immediately.

　　Done!

　　“Chef, you cooperated well with me.” Shen Ying nudged Yi Qing.

　　“Master, you taught me well.”

　　Daily cheating of Father Niu – done!
