Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Heavenly Person

The misty rain was drizzling down.

Since the rainy season began, clear weather had become scarce.

Behind the Chen Bell Platform.

Although it was raining, the raindrops were repelled by an invisible force before they could touch him.

Just after Li Qian had finished practicing the Heartless Sword Technique, he felt as if the True Qi inside his body had reached its peak, ready to break through at any moment.

With a thought, he summoned the system interface to check the latest information.

Host: Li Qian.

Cultivation: Innate True Qi (Late Stage 99/100).

Sacrificial Artifact: Chen Bell (Power 2642/10000).

Martial Arts: Sword Stabbing Fist (Perfect), Heartless Sword Technique (Perfect), Pure Sword Body (Perfect), Soul Chasing Sword Skill (Perfect).

Martial Intent: Heartless Sword Intent (True Image 7/100).

Secret Skill: Ten Thousand Transformation Sword Qi, Blood Burning Technique.

....

"I’m finally about to break through."

Li Qian muttered to himself.

However, he planned to find another place later in the evening.

After all, the breakthrough from True Qi Realm to True Essence Realm could be quite noisy.

After nightfall.

It was still raining.

The night was silent.

Li Qian stood on top of the bell tower, able to hear the faint snoring of Liu Ming inside the house.

He took a deep breath, and with a flicker of his form, he flew out, vanishing into the night like a night owl.

Several minutes later.

Li Qian had already arrived at a mountain peak outside the Divine Sword Sect.

This place was close to the Divine Sword Sect, so the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was still abundant, unlike other places... where the conditions for cultivation were far worse.

For Innate Martial Artists, the concentration of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi greatly affects the speed of cultivation.

Li Qian sat cross-legged, swallowing a handful of elixirs.

Then he started to operate the Internal Cultivation Methods of the Heartless Sword Technique.

At the same time, the sound of bells echoed continuously in his mind.

He planned to use the Chen Bell to assist his breakthrough.

Without any suspense, the breakthrough began easily.

His powerful Spiritual Perception spread out, drawing the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi towards his Pure Sword Body.

At the same time, the Qi Blood Pills he had swallowed transformed into rolling Qi and blood, replenishing the Qi and blood consumed by his Pure Sword Body.

This breakthrough took much longer than the previous ones.

Because this time, it was a breakthrough from the True Qi Realm to the True Essence Realm.

Similarly, the required Qi, blood, and Heaven and Earth Essence Qi were also much more.

Not knowing how much time had passed, an astonishing aura suddenly burst forth from inside Li Qian, forming countless invisible Sword Qi that roamed unpredictably around the space.

At the same time, Li Qian slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of a smile.

Finally, he had broken through.

True Essence Realm.

At this moment, his Dantian Qi Sea contained four streams of liquid True Qi, constructing a stable Four Symbols Qi Field structure, the contained power was much stronger than the Late Stage of the True Qi Realm.

Moreover, he noticed a serious issue; compared to the True Image Level Heartless Sword Intent, his cultivation realm seemed to have fallen far behind.

Just as Li Qian planned to try the combination of Innate True Essence and True Image Level Sword Intent, and see how powerful it would be, suddenly... his Spiritual Perception stirred, sensing a rapidly approaching aura.

"Not good, did my breakthrough alert someone from the Divine Sword Sect?"

Li Qian thought to himself.

His form shifted, True Essence surged around his body, while the Chen Bell masked his aura, transforming into a streak of light speeding towards another direction.

"Eh, why are you running?"

A surprised voice sounded.

Li Qian ran even faster.

"It seems you are not a person from my Divine Sword Sect."

The voice grew even more surprised, "Stay for this old man."

The next moment, a powerful Sword Qi descended from the sky, accompanied by terrifying Sword Intent.

He hastily employed the strongest defense of the Chen Bell, gathering rolling Heaven and Earth Essence Qi around his body, combined with Innate True Essence, forming countless Sword Qi which then constructed a bell shield like a copper wall and iron barrier.

Moreover, this bell shield also contained the True Image Level Sword Intent disguised by the Chen Bell.

A true martial arts master identifies people not just by their appearance or stature, but by their Sword Intent and True Qi.

Since breaking through to the Innate Realm, Li Qian had been trying to figure out how to utilize the defensive and offensive characteristics of the Chen Bell in combat.
