Chapter 306 – Secluded Cultivation Below the Island (2/2)

“Seclusion!” Liu Chuanfeng immediately understood that this was for the battle with Chu Tian.

Li Qingshan, on the other hand, thought of several other things. Milliped was his friend, not his mount or pet. He could not keep his friend trapped in the bug pouch all day long.

Though, the battle with Chu Tian definitely was one of the reasons. His original plan was to ingest pills slowly while learning how to forge artifacts and refine pills so that he could accumulate even more knowledge and resources, guaranteeing that he would not run out of pills. However, he changed his mind now. Even a lion would use its full strength to catch a rabbit.

Li Qingshan asked, “I think you told me that there are special dwellings of secluded cultivation on the main island?” There were many facilities on the island, and the primary disciple could use all of them for free. The cultivation dwellings were included among them.

Liu Zhuanfeng said, “Can’t you just cultivate here? The spiritual qi there isn’t even as abundant as here.”

“I have my plans.”

Li Qingshan arrived on Contention island with Xiao An and found the instructor responsible for managing the cultivation dwellings.

The instructor saw how it was two primary disciples who wanted to choose a cultivation dwelling. If it were just Li Qingshan, then so be it, but Xiao An had shaken up the entire academy before, so the instructor showed them all the respect that he had.

“Are you planning to enter seclusion separately or together?”

“Together.”

“Please come with me then.” The instructor did not ramble. He brought the two of them into a hall. The tiles trembled before rapidly sinking down.

There was actually a huge hole dug out in Contention island. It was divided into over a dozen floors. Each floor had many cultivation dwellings for the disciples of various schools to use, and every single dwelling was firmly sealed, covered in numerous formations, preventing them from sensing any aura of others.

Li Qingshan sensed that the closer he got to the bottom, the denser the spiritual qi became. The surging spiritual qi blew upwards like wind.

Only when they reached the very bottom of the hole did they stop.

The instructor passed a round disc to Li Qingshan. “This is the disc. This is the lowest floor. There’s only a single cultivation dwelling here. It has the best spiritual qi formations, and it’s extremely spacious too. You won’t be able to affect one another if you cultivate in there together. If regular disciples wanted to use it, it’d cost them over a dozen spiritual stones for just a single day.”

Li Qingshan asked, “Is it possible for people to spy on what’s going on inside from the outside?”

The instructor said, “It’s impossible. Not only are there several formations serving as obstructions, but there’s an interference of spiritual energy too. Even school leader Liu’s Watermoon disc can’t penetrate there. Not only is it shut off from the outside world, but it’s also impossible to enter the place too. Once the dwelling is shut, it can only be opened from the inside.”

“It can’t be opened from the outside?”

“Well, you can’t say that exactly. There are obviously ways to open it from the outside, but that’s only for extraordinary circumstances, such as when the academy is under attack, or when you haven’t paid your school fees.”

Li Qingshan smiled and clasped his hands. “Thank you for your explanations, instructor.”

“Both of you are figures with tremendous future prospects. To be able to assist you is my honour. Please make sure you have prepared food and water yourselves. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get out of here and stop wasting your time for cultivation.”

Li Qingshan and Xiao An entered the dwelling and used the key again. The stone door slammed shut and several formations began operating.

The spiritual qi here was unable to rival the formation on Cloudwisp island, but it was close. At the same time, it was safer and more secretive.

Li Qingshan let out Milliped before taking out all the food he had purchased from the Hundred Flavours restaurant, basically making it up to him. His eyes met with Xiao An’s, and he pinched her nose. “Watch as I defeat you with sword qi once I emerge.”
