Lu Qing was caught off guard and quickly calmed his mind to fully receive the information.

"Entering the Divine Rune Sect, one must take heaven and earth as their teachers, observe the patterns of all things in the world, draw spiritual runes, and communicate with everything..."

Unlike any previous experience, this time, a grand voice resonated in Lu Qing\'s mind, making him feel as if he were listening to the sound of the Dao, and his spirit couldn\'t help but become immersed.

Nearby, Xiao Li saw Lu Qing close his eyes and stand still again. After a glance, it ignored him.

The two-legged beast often did this, and it had long been accustomed to it.

Xiao Li continued to drool over the stone platform.

It could sense that the items on the stone platform would be greatly beneficial to it.

Unfortunately, the two-legged beast wouldn\'t allow it to touch them yet, so it could only watch and drool.

Lu Qing\'s reception of the insights lasted a long time.

So long that Xiao Li looked up several times to see if he had fallen asleep.

Finally, Lu Qing opened his eyes, his face filled with disbelief.

"Learning from all things in heaven and earth, the Way of Runes is indeed a separate system from martial arts practice?"

Lu Qing was utterly shocked.

The heritage within these mysterious patterns was far more magical than he had imagined.

It was an entirely different system of practice from martial arts cultivation.

Martial arts training starts with tempering blood and qi, tendons and bones, and internal organs, striving for the ultimate physical strength. Finally, one tempers the soul, breaks through the acupoints, integrates the inner and outer selves, and achieves Precelestial status.

In contrast, the Way of Runes does not emphasize physical strength initially.

It emphasizes comprehending the principles of heaven and earth, understanding the runes within all things. Once the principles are understood, control over power follows naturally, without deliberate pursuit.

Therefore, the Way of Runes demands extremely high comprehension.

Without sufficient comprehension, one might study for a lifetime without achieving anything, unable even to enter the door.

"I thought that martial arts training was tough enough, with only one in ten practitioners grasping the secret of connecting blood and qi to step into the Qi and Blood Realm, which is already a low probability."

"But the Way of Runes is a thousand times more difficult. Only one in ten thousand has the aptitude for it. It is truly the most challenging path."

Lu Qing marveled.

The entry difficulty of the Way of Runes was unimaginably high, making martial arts training seem simple in comparison.

At least in martial arts, even if one doesn\'t reach the Qi and Blood Realm, they can still have decent physical fitness and martial skills, making them stronger than ordinary people.

But in the Way of Runes, if one cannot comprehend the principles, they are no different from ordinary people.

Lu Qing even suspected that the heritage of the Way of Runes had vanished because its entry difficulty was too high, and even a master like Li Weitian in the Precelestial realm had never heard of it, leaving only this jade cavern as a chance for the destined.

Unfortunately, the heritage he obtained did not mention this point.

It only stated that the heritage was left by a mysterious sect named the Divine Rune Sect, without more information.

The Divine Rune Sect\'s doctrine was to learn from heaven and earth, to understand one\'s unique runes from all things, emphasizing natural freedom. The sect\'s practices were very spontaneous.

Otherwise, it wouldn\'t have disappeared, leaving behind this jade cavern as an opportunity for the fated.

"However, this means that the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid must be used sparingly."

The heritage from the Divine Rune Sect included a secret technique that allowed disciples to temper their soul force without their physical body reaching the Postnatal perfection, but this technique required the assistance of the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

From the jade slip left by Li Weitian, Lu Qing understood the importance of soul force.

Soul force could be considered the key and bridge to breaking through from the Postnatal to the Precelestial realm. Without comprehending soul force, no matter how good one\'s aptitude, strong their skills, or deep their accumulation, one couldn\'t open that door or cross the chasm between Postnatal and Precelestial.

Now that he knew the heritage of the Divine Rune Sect included a technique to comprehend soul force in advance, how could Lu Qing not take it seriously?

He immediately walked to the stone platform and examined the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid in the pit.

"Fortunately, there are at least thirty or forty drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid here. According to the heritage, using the secret technique requires at most ten drops to temper soul force. If ten drops are used up without success, more will be useless. This is more than enough."

Seeing the quantity of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, a thought crossed his mind.

The Earth Vein Spirit Liquid had been emptied by Li Weitian before, and it took twenty years for one drop to condense. Didn\'t this mean that Li Weitian was a figure from seven or eight hundred years ago?

Seven or eight hundred years...

In this world, anything over a hundred years could be considered a significant change.

Li Weitian was from such a distant past that it was questionable whether anyone still remembered him.

Xiao Li saw Lu Qing staring at the items on the stone platform and became excited.

It jumped onto the stone platform and tugged at Lu Qing\'s clothes.

Lu Qing looked at the Black Beast and saw it pointing at the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid in the stone platform, its face full of longing.

"You want to eat this?" Lu Qing asked.

Seeing Xiao Li nod, Lu Qing pondered.

Finding this treasure trove was largely thanks to Xiao Li.

Without its guidance, he would never have discovered the miraculous cave behind the waterfall.

Since it wanted the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, he should give it.

The insights from the abilities also indicated that this liquid greatly benefited both humans and beasts.

Lu Qing was not stingy with Xiao Li.

He nodded, "Alright, but try a few drops first. If it\'s not enough, you can have more."

Although the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid was miraculous, consuming more wasn\'t always better.

According to the heritage, its effectiveness in improving aptitude had limits.

Its effect was strongest on beings below the Precelestial realm, and it weakened significantly for those above.

For ordinary Postnatal beings, one drop could enhance their aptitude to its limit.

For special beings, at most five drops could be consumed; any more would be useless.

Xiao Li was a spirit beast, considered a special being. Lu Qing planned to give it five drops.

Hearing Lu Qing\'s words, Xiao Li\'s eyes lit up, and it nodded eagerly.

"Wait here."

The Earth Vein Spirit Liquid needed to be stored in jade containers to maintain its spirituality.

Fortunately, there were jade bottles in the alchemy room behind the secret door. Lu Qing fetched one, cleaned it, and filled it with all the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

Then he said, "Open your mouth."

Xiao Li had been watching eagerly. Hearing this, it was overjoyed, obediently tilting its head and opening its mouth.

Lu Qing poured five drops of the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid from the jade bottle into Xiao Li\'s mouth.

The Black Beast smacked its lips, seemingly enjoying the taste, and happily rolled on the stone platform.

However, its joy was short-lived. After a while, it felt its eyelids grow heavy and soon fell asleep on the stone platform.

Lu Qing was not surprised. The heritage mentioned that spirit beasts would generally fall asleep after consuming the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, slowly enhancing their aptitude and purifying their bloodline.

He picked up Xiao Li and placed it on a nest made of his outer clothes, then sat cross-legged beside it, quietly waiting for it to wake up.
