A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 523: Chapter 419: Bronze Flying Knife

"This is quite an unexpected gain!"

"Truly worthy of a family with countless years of heritage, it contains various cultivation and secret knowledge that even many great sects do not possess..."

Qi Ping looked at the various items placed in front of him, feeling somewhat surprised.

The items gathered this time exceeded his expectations.

He originally thought there was nothing on the Star Sea Continent that could particularly surprise him, but he did not expect the heritage of these ancient families to be beyond his imagination.

Qi Ping used to believe that the foundation of various sects was the core of the Star Sea Continent, but it now seemed that the accumulation within these families was the deepest heritage of the continent.

Various powerful cultivation techniques and magic from the Qi Refining Stage to the Integration Stage.

Various secrets recorded from ancient times to the present.

Various magical treasures never before seen.

And many items related to alchemy, artifact refining, arrays, planting, puppets, and more.

In addition, there were many spirit beasts of strong bloodlines that were acquired....

....

In summary, these items were unexpectedly numerous.

Therefore, Qi Ping chose to keep those spirit beasts of strong bloodlines at Star Sea Academy, with the straightforward goal of raising these spirit beasts just like planting spirit wood, to cultivate his own spirit beast legion.

As for those cultivation techniques and knowledge, Qi Ping retained a portion to make his cultivation knowledge more complete, while the rest was placed into Star Sea Academy, to be distributed based on specific circumstances, using the new knowledge to drive the development of the Nine Star Sea Realms.

Qi Ping was certain that if this knowledge was utilized properly, it would be enough to elevate the development of the Nine Star Sea Realms by a whole level, to put it simply, development speed +1, strength growth speed of the citizens within the territory +1, resource production speed within the territory +1....

The process was incredibly complex, but the effect presented was actually quite similar to a territory development game, and looting this inheritance resource belonging to ancient families certainly played a significant role in greatly accelerating the development of the Nine Star Sea Realms.

However, these regular resources would be a great fortune for those below, but for Qi Ping they did not hold any particular significance.

Two things truly caught Qi Ping’s attention.

One was that Qi Ping acquired two records about the praying language.

These two records of the praying language were much more profound compared to the previous one Qi Ping obtained, one concerning the praying language for mountains and earth, and another concerning the praying language for the celestial thunder.

This wasn’t like the specific attributes of cultivation techniques for the Immortal Dao; it was much closer to the essence of the world.

Namely, the mountains and earth, celestial thunder, all naturally formed, representing the most wondrous power of the world. If one could cultivate the praying language to the highest realm, they could master the most powerful power of the world through it.

The only disappointment for Qi Ping was that he still didn’t find a method for training or cultivating heart power.

"But this is not bad either. By familiarizing myself with these two praying languages, I’ll be able to master two special and powerful forces. Having one more method is certainly a good thing; who knows when it might come in handy!"

For this, Qi Ping was still very pleased. He really enjoyed the feeling of increasing heritage, and in addition, he truly liked this power, as it provided him with a new perspective on understanding this world.

Another acquisition was an item found inside a black, mysterious box.

This was discovered by Qi Ping within a black box that contained a decaying aura.

The black box was inscribed with a very powerful sealing array, that would launch rule-based attacks on those attempting to open it, with attack strength nearing Void Refining, and the seal’s strength was even more outrageous. It took Qi Ping leveraging the power of an Earth Immortal Druid and the full force of Five-Colored Immortal Light nearly half a day to barely pry the box open.

Qi Ping even suspected that if placed outside the Nine Star Sea Realms, even a cultivator at the Mahayana Stage might not be able to open it.

Even without the continuous erosion of the Five-Colored Immortal Light, mere brute force might not have managed to open this black box.

And after the black box was opened, its contents were simple, just a decayed bronze flying knife, and a strip of cloth filled with bloody words.

Though this bronze flying knife appeared extremely decayed and rusted, its pressure was unmistakable, and even a slight leakage of its aura was above the Integration Stage!

"This is? Something above the Integration Stage?"

The moment Qi Ping laid eyes on the bronze flying knife, his eyes widened in astonishment.

Qi Ping was so shocked because this was the only item currently tangible on the Star Sea Continent above the Integration Stage!

In past years, Qi Ping had nearly scoured the entire Star Sea Continent and conversed with all cultivators above the Divinity Transformation Stage, but none had any information on Mahayana Stage cultivation techniques or weapons, nor any trace of Mahayana Stage power.

It’s as though.....there was never any trace of Mahayana Stage cultivators existing here, which led to some believing the historical glory of the Star Sea Continent, with its multiple Mahayana Stage cultivators, was fabricated.

Otherwise, why wouldn’t there be any trace left of Mahayana Stage items? Not even the slightest trace of power.

It was understandable if all Mahayana Stage magical treasures were plundered, but how could there not even be a single Mahayana Stage cultivation technique left?

This was a perplexing mystery for Qi Ping.

And today, an item above the Integration Stage finally appeared!
