Transmigration: Children of The Plane

Peaceful Cultivation

The night went by fast, and when morning came, Xue Bai woke up at his normal time. But this time, he was slightly sad as he didn't get the dream again, making him miss out on the Sword Law progress he was just getting used to.

"What are the requirements to have the dream pop up?" Xue Bai was confused, but since he couldn't figure it out without seeing the Soaring Sword Sect Founder once again, he gave up.

He also couldn't ask Yue Zifeng about it, as Xue Bai didn't think that the Soaring Sword Sect Founder would want him to tell anyone about the dreams he was getting. And while Yue Zifeng was definitely trustworthy and would never greed over them, Xue Bai thought that the fewer people that knew about the dreams, the better.

After all, only two days after first comprehending Sword Law, Xue Bai had already reached 9% comprehension, which already rivaled some people in the Dharma Idol Realm, let alone the other youngsters in the Bone Strengthening Realm with him.

So after freshening up with some Spiritual Water from his pond, Xue Bai started his day.

Changing once more into his training outfit, Xue Bai once again went into the Training Pagoda, where he planned to improve his swordsmanship. Even though he could most likely instantly kill the Sword Puppet, it wouldn't give Xue Bai anything but a small momentary satisfaction.

But continuing to practice against it without his Sword Law and only his swordsmanship would allow Xue Bai to improve daily and at a considerable pace at that.

Xue Bai wanted to be able to beat the Sword Puppet without his Sword Law before moving on. He planned on keeping his Sword Law a secret as it would make a great trump card because, like his Space Element, when his Sword Law was used against an unprepared target, its attack power could even cross Realms!

The only people who knew that Xue Bai had comprehended Sword Law were the Core Elders and Yue Zifeng. Thankfully none of the people mentioned seemed to be talkative, and with age came experience, so it was more than likely they all knew how to keep a secret. So Xue Bai was hopeful that his Sword Law would stay a secret.

Of course, Xue Bai wouldn't delay its comprehension process because of this. He would only keep it a secret from the outside world.

So to make up for the fact that he was planning on hiding his Sword Law, Xue Bai needed to practice his other forms of combat.

Going back into the Training Pagoda, Xue Bai was about to turn the array formation on and release the Sword Puppet once more, but before he did, he remembered something.

The Spatial Ring from the Xiantian Great Realm expert he stole from Ye Xuan and Shi Tian!

So after a quick run to his bedroom, Xue Bai got the Spatial Ring out from the robe he kept it in.

A Spatial Ring couldn't be stored in another Spatial Ring, so Xue Bai had merely put it in the pocket of the training robe he used that day.

And after returning to the Training Pagoda, Xue Bai poured his Spiritual Qi into the Spatial Ring, where he soon found his consciousness looking inside.

The Spatial Ring was small, only 2 square meters, which was much smaller than Xue Bai's own personal Spatial Ring, and inside there weren't many things either, with there only being two wooden cases and a small pile of Jade Slips.

Taking everything out, Xue Bai put the Spatial Ring into his pocket, completely disregarding it. It was only a Low Yellow Grade Spatial Ring and could contain little, giving it no use for Xue Bai, who had much better Spatial Rings.

Opening the wooden boxes first, Xue Bai saw two pill bottles, each filled with ten pills that Xue Bai couldn't identify.

Confused, Xue Bai got the 5 Jade Slips and started to digest their information.

"So that's what they are." Xue Bai muttered, now enlightened.

From the 5 Jade Slips, Xue Bai figured out why Ye Xuan and Shi Tian were so greedy for the inheritance.

Inside the first Jade Slips was the Low Black-grade Cultivation Technique that once belonged to the Xiantian Great Realm expert.

Before reaching the Qi Sea Realm, one didn't need a Cultivation Technique since all they were doing was strengthening the physical body.

However, after reaching the Qi Sea Realm, it was necessary. Without it, advancing any further could cause many different negative repercussions, from Spiritual Qi Deviation, self-crippling and even death.

Li Rou and Xue Feng both had a Low Black-grade Cultivation Technique that Xue Bai didn't know much about.

However, for people other than them, getting such an advanced Cultivation Technique was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Even for people like Ye Xuan, who was from one of the Noble Families in the Soaring Sword Sect.

But since Xue Bai had no need for the Cultivation Technique yet, he pushed planning to give it to Yue Zifeng sometime.

The Second and third Jade Slip had two Martial Techniques that were indispensable to anyone cultivating the Cultivation Technique. But for anyone else, they were subpar at best, diminishing any value they could possibly have for Xue Bai.

And finally, the last two Jade Slips gave Xue Bai the name and description of what the Pills were.

The first bottle contained a rare Pill named a Bodhi Pill that could magnify the comprehension ability of the consumer by 10x for a day.

While the second contained another rare pill that was named a True Water Essence Pill, which was like the Yang Essence Pill that Jiang Xiaorou gave him but was helpful for Water Element cultivators instead of Fire Element cultivators.

Depressed that the second was useless for him, Xue Bai pushed it aside with the other garbage, dejectedly, while storing away the Bodhi Pills.

They were going to be extremely helpful once Xue Bai got a Cultivation Technique. With them, he would be able to take another step ahead of his competition and comprehend his Cultivation Technique much deeper than them.

And after thanking the late Ye Xuan for the gift, Xue Bai stood back up and turned on the array formation, starting the day's training.

Xue Bai continued this simple but repetitive life for another week, where every morning and afternoon, Xue Bai would enter the Training Pagoda and fight against the Peak stage Bone Strengthening Realm Sword Puppet. And during the night, Xue Bai would cultivate diligently, making full use of the dense Spiritual Qi at his peak.

He would also force Xiao'er to cultivate just as much as himself while making sure she didn't slack off. Xue Bai also managed to persuade her to enter the Training Pagoda with him and finally start training her combat skills.

Thankfully, while Xiao'er wasn't as talented as Xue Bai with the sword, her talent at swordsmanship wasn't too bad, and her progress was rather fast compared to other disciples. And since her skills were so bad, her progress was also extremely fast.

It was like increasing your grades during school. Going from 1-20 was fast and simple, but going from 50 to 70 was much harder.

And this example perfectly matched the situation with Xue Bai and Xiao'er. Since Xiao'er had never tried fighting before, she could only get better. Coupled with her above-average talent, she was progressing at an extremely quick rate.

However, Xue Bai was already much more experienced than her, so his progress was also slower.

During their week of diligent cultivation Yue Zifeng seeing Xiao'er blossom into a Sword Maiden out of nowhere, out of curiosity, tested the Sword Law of affinity of Xiao'er and found out that she had a Rank 2-grade affinity, which wasn't bad by any means and was in the top 10% of cultivators on the Southern Continent. Still, compared to the Immortal-grade requirement for a core disciple, it was definitely lacking.

Besides his ever-increasing skill with the sword, Xue Bai's cultivation speed didn't fall behind, and within the week, he managed to break through another stage, reaching the 5th stage of the Bone Strengthening Realm.

However, his Sword Law comprehension had halted at 9%, as besides the first dream he had on the first night on his Peak, he had never gotten another one.

But after remembering just how far ahead he was compared to his peers, Xue Bai didn't get too saddened over the fact but just instead tried looking for ways to get the dreams back.

After experiencing the feeling of his Sword Law progress increasing effortlessly, Xue Bai was reluctant to go back to his previous way of comprehending Sword Law himself at home.

Besides news on Xue Bai, Xiao'er had also broken through another stage, reaching the 4th stage of the Organ Tempering Realm. But before she could rejoice at the fact that she was catching up to Ye Rou, a piece of news came from the peak over.

Ye Rou had broken through to the Qi Sea Realm.

She had been at the Peak stage for almost a month now, and after getting a few treasure pills from Jiang Xiaorou and Yue Zifeng, she broke through smoothly without any trouble.

Yue Zifeng planned to do a grand ceremony to celebrate it while also announcing her and Xue Bai to the Southern Continent. But that wouldn't be for another month or so, giving Xue Bai some time to advance his cultivation a few more stages and hopefully a whole new Realm.

Xue Bai also knew this event was going to be the first appearance of the female 'Child of the Plane.' Other than Ye Rou's public appearance, the Soaring Sword Sect and the other two great sects would collaborate and set up a small tournament for rogue cultivators wanting to join.

There she would show her talent and be picked up by an Elder from the Hundred Flowers Sect and start her rise to prominence.

However, now that Xue Bai was here, he had different plans for the girl. Of course, he didn't want to get on her bad side, as having one 'Child of the Plane' as an enemy was scary enough, but instead, wanting to do like what he did with Huo Long and befriend her before she started to rise up.

And with the information that he had gotten over the years, thanks to his Fathers subordinates, Xue Bai had finally managed to locate her.

The only problem was Yue Zifeng.

"No, why would you leave the Mountain? There is nothing outside that could possibly be better for you than what is on your peak." Yue Zifeng spoke calmly, not knowing he was impeding Xue Bai's five-year plan.

"Master, I sense an opportunity is out there for me, and it's calling out for me to get it." Xue Bai pulled out his trump card.

Thankfully it worked, and as instantly, instead of shooting Xue Bai's request down once more, Yue Zifeng looked contemplative about his words. And after a few minutes of thinking, he spoke up.

"You're not lying to me so that you could go out and have fun, are you?" Yue Zifeng asked seriously.

He knew that some heavenly geniuses were blessed by fate and would find treasures like sand on a beach. So Xue Bai saying that a treasure was calling out to him wasn't too far-fetched an idea.

However, the only thing stopping Yue Zifeng from letting his disciple go was that he knew that Xue Bai was a troublemaker who liked to show off, so he couldn't be sure if Xue Bai wanted to sneak out and have fun or was truly serious with his words.

"Master, I promise that when I come back, I'll be at the peak of the Bone Strengthening Realm at the minimum!" Xue Bai swore solemnly.

There were many opportunities hidden throughout the Southern Continent that Xue Bai hadn't looted yet, and adding on the many resources in Senior Huli's Spatial Ring, advancing his cultivation to the Peak of the Bone Strengthening Realm in a short time wasn't impossible. All he had to do was give up on training anything else and focus entirely on his cultivation base during his time out.

Away from Xue Bai's thoughts, Yue Zifeng seeing his prized disciple look so confident, relented and gave him permission.

"However, take those bodyguards of yours along with you. I would give you a shadow guard from our Sect, but I know those two living in the Soaring Sword City have followed you for a long time and would most likely be much better than a stranger." Yue Zifeng reminded me.

Thanking Yue Zifeng with a grateful bow, Xue Bai ran off to leave, but before he did, Yue Zifeng's shout came once more.

"Bai'er, I have reforged that sword of yours." Yue Zifeng announced while pulling out a Spatial Ring.

"In this Spatial Ring is the reforged sword, along with some other life-saving methods that I have prepared for you," Yue Zifeng explained, "As long as you don't run into someone as strong as me, you'll be invincible on this continent."

Even more grateful, Xue Bai accepted the Spatial Ring and gave Yue Zifeng another much deeper bow before running off, this time for sure.
