Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 368 - : Immeasurable Sword Art
Chapter 368: Chapter 368: Immeasurable Sword Art
Thud, thud…
Bai Shixiong’s heartbeat gradually quickened.
The barrier was intact, yet Xia Liu had ascended to the third level without any hindrance!
And now, he was heading toward the mysterious fourth level!
Witnessing all this happen, Bai Shixiong was so shocked he could hardly speak.
The fourth level— even the Sect Master had not been able to ascend there during his time, yet now it was trodden by Xia Liu!
Although energies began to swirl around Xia Liu, it appeared he truly ascended by his own abilities, which was simply defying the heavens.
The fourth level of the Library Pavilion!
The moment Xia Liu stepped into the fourth level, the oppressive force bearing down on him dissipated instantly.
As soon as he had stepped onto the staircase to the fourth level, he could not move anymore.
Fortunately, he stimulated his inner spirit energy, barely managing to ascend.
If that force had been any stronger, he would have had to remove the Spirit Stabilizing Needle in the Tianshu acupoint; otherwise, he truly would not have made it here.
The fourth level, in contrast to the three levels below, was a completely different place.
Beneath, shelves of books stood solemnly, rows upon rows of books neatly arranged.
On this fourth level, however, it seemed to be a minimalist tea room, with a wooden table, wooden chairs, a wooden cup, and a wooden pot set up in front.
An extremely desolate energy met him head-on, and Xia Liu could hardly imagine how many years it had been since any living person had come here.
However, this level was somewhat special—there was no accumulation of years of dust.
If not for the extremely chilling energy, Xia Liu would have thought someone was here drinking tea yesterday.
“Hmm? What is this!” Approaching the wooden table, Xia Liu suddenly saw two bamboo scrolls on it!
It seemed to be ancient texts used for recording and conveying information.
Xia Liu sat down, opened the bamboo scrolls, and glanced at the message recorded on them.
“Cultivator’s script!” Upon seeing the characters, Xia Liu’s eyes widened!
Little did he expect these to be the long-lost cultivator’s script.
Cultivator’s script was used by cultivators for communication.
It was vastly different from Huaxia Country’s script; however, if one earnestly studied this script, an ordinary scholar could decipher it in about twenty years.
Xia Liu could recognize these characters thanks to the old man’s teaching.
It was unclear what the old man was thinking when he slapped his head and then handed him the “Five Elements Mantra” written in cultivator’s script.
Xia Liu’s familiarity with cultivator’s script was as natural to him as Huaxia people viewed their own script.
After reading the bamboo scroll for a while, his expression turned somber.
It was a recorded chapter, discussing the depletion of nature’s spiritual energy and the rare emergence of new talents.
It also briefly mentioned the founding of the Immeasurable Sect, which was 3,000 years ago, when Immeasurable Sect was one of the several great cultivator sects of that era.
Cultivator sect!
Seeing these words, Xia Liu swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.
He had some understanding of cultivators, but not to a profound extent.
The recorded chapter left sparse information. This founding great power merely documented the glorious century of the Immeasurable Sect and the decline of cultivators across the world.
Based on the text recorded in the bamboo scroll, Xia Liu roughly understood the reason behind the decline of cultivators.
It was mainly due to the depletion of nature’s spiritual energy, making it difficult to sustain the cultivation of cultivators.
With no new blood among cultivators appearing, gradually, the line of cultivators was shattered; when the critical time came, some transformed into feathers, others simply died of old age, essentially all disappearing.
The era of cultivators ended, followed by the era of martial artists.
Martial artists require a talent far beyond that of cultivators for cultivation.
But those who can cultivate their Inner Qi to the Transformed Boundary Realm also possess a power that rivals that of a Low-Rank Cultivator.
Xia Liu put the recorded chapter aside, thinking that this wealth of the Immeasurable Sect should be left for them to figure out on their own.
As he opened another bamboo scroll, Xia Liu’s pupils suddenly constricted!
Cultivator’s Technique: Immeasurable Sword Art!
“By the sun! What a find without any effort! Hahaha!”
Xia Liu couldn’t help but burst into laughter, never having expected that the Immeasurable Sect could have acquired a cultivator’s cultivation technique!
Even though it was merely the lowest Yellow-Rank Spirit Formula, it was enough to enable a person to become a cultivator!
A cultivator! That was an existence many times more elevated than a martial artist!
This technique had a total of fifteen levels, corresponding to the fifteen realms of an entry-level cultivator.
Xia Liu examined it closely and discovered more and more benefits of the Immeasurable Sword Art.
By reaching just the third level, one could spontaneously generate Sword Qi, and use it as a shield.
This truly was a terrifying cultivation technique with both offensive and defensive capabilities.
As for why the Immeasurable Sword Art was only classified as Yellow-Rank, that remained unknown.
Xia Liu took the opportunity to commit all the contents of the Immeasurable Sword Art to memory.
He did not plan to take this technique with him, partly because he was uncertain how many had the talent for cultivation.
On the other hand, the emergence of this technique would definitely provoke a scramble among martial artists across the land.
How could the now declining Immeasurable Sect possibly have the power to contend with martial artists from all over?
“Senior Master Qingcheng’s great kindness and virtue, once Xia Liu achieves something significant, will surely revive the Immeasurable Sect and allow your deeds to be passed down.”
Looking at the bamboo scroll’s recorder’s name on the back, Xia Liu bowed slightly and made a promise of thanks.
After returning the bamboo scroll back to its original place, Xia Liu looked around and, finding no further information about cultivators, descended the stairs.
Coming down to the second floor, Xia Liu saw Bai Shixiong, Zhang Xiantian, and Sun Mingcong rummaging through the bookshelves.
“Hey all, have you chosen anything yet?”
“Xia Liu!”
Hearing Xia Liu’s greeting, the three turned their heads, then exclaimed in surprise.
“Xia Liu, what did you find on the fourth floor?” Bai Shixiong asked excitedly, rushing over and grabbing Xia Liu’s wrist.
“Sect Master Bai, don’t be agitated, there was nothing much up there, just a few desks and chairs, it seemed like a place where the founder of the Immeasurable Sect rested and drank tea.”
“The founder!” Hearing this title shocked Bai Shixiong.
Having endured prosperity and decline over thousands of years, Bai Shixiong, as the leader of the Immeasurable Sect, almost teared up at the mention of the founder whom even the Sect Master of his time might not have known about.
“Sect Master Bai, you better stay here with Brother Zhang and Brother Sun to pick martial arts skills and techniques. I need to leave first, as Xiaotian’s Martial Veins still require some treatment.”
As he spoke, Xia Liu skillfully drew a circle in the palm of Bai Shixiong’s hand, his expression unchanged.
“Uh… Then let me take you out first. I’m very sorry about Xiaotian’s situation; I will definitely find a way to help him recover,” Bai Shixiong responded, slightly stunned, then promised immediately.
“That’s not necessary, Sect Master Bai. I can heal Xiaotian’s Martial Veins. We only need some medicinal materials from the Immeasurable Sect.”

“Wow! Not only is Brother Xia’s cultivation Heaven-Reaching, but his medical skills have also reached the peak!”
“To be able to heal the meridians, probably only Brother Xia could do such a thing in a thousand years!”
Zhang Xiantian and Sun Mingcong couldn’t help but be moved, witnessing all of Xia Liu’s transformations right before their eyes.
They couldn’t help but worship such a formidable person…
