Chapter 39

Thinking about this, Ding Qi carefully examined every part of the brocade, but found no relevant clues.

In the end, he could only infer from what had happened before.

Recalling the golden patterns that had been projected from the brocade when he was infused with true qi, Ding Qi had a vague guess.

Recalling the scene, Ding Qi muttered to himself, "The background patterns on the brocade disappeared. Could it be related to the golden patterns that immobilized me back then?"

The true situation of this magical brocade was indeed guessed by Ding Qi to some extent.

The golden patterns that had immobilized Ding Qi back then were actually the effect of a sealing array inscribed on the magical brocade.

The main function of the sealing array was to seal a large amount of innate true qi in the brocade and, when necessary, to infuse it into the user of the magical brocade.

Now that the sealed true qi in the magical brocade had been released and completely infused into Ding Qi's body, the array had completed its mission. The sealing on the brocade was thus invalidated, and the array was removed from the brocade. The golden background patterns representing the sealing array naturally disappeared.

This was the reason why the golden patterns had disappeared from the brocade.

After having some guesses about the disappearance of the golden background patterns, Ding Qi carefully examined the mysterious brocade again, hoping to find more information about what had happened.

However, apart from the mysterious disappearance of the golden patterns, Ding Qi had looked at the brocade countless times but found no other clues.

At this point, Ding Qi realized that with the information he currently had, it was almost impossible to figure out what had happened today and the secrets of the brocade.

He knew too little about innate true qi.

Unless he could obtain more information about innate true qi, he would not be able to understand what had happened.

This situation made Ding Qi somewhat disappointed.

However, after feeling the increased power in his body, the disappointment quickly disappeared from his mind.

The excitement and joy brought by forty years of power had completely overshadowed this small disappointment.

Looking at the brocade on the table, Ding Qi thought about the military service.

Then, a smile appeared on his face: "Innate true qi is already approaching the eighth level. The efficiency of picking phoenix tail grass is no longer a problem. The issue of military service is thus... ."

These days, the issue of military service had been troubling Ding Qi, but after this incident, the problem was solved.

To search for enough phoenix tail grass, he only needed to cultivate innate true qi to the fourth level.

For the current Ding Qi, this was already easy to handle.

In the following days, Ding Qi went to Qixia Mountain every day to pick phoenix tail grass and verify his efficiency in picking medicinal herbs. Although the time was short, based on the performance of these few days, he could not truly calculate the average number of phoenix tail grass he could pick each day, but he had been picking more than fifteen plants each day.

At this rate, Ding Qi would soon be able to pick enough phoenix tail grass to meet the requirements for military service.

This made Ding Qi extremely happy.

Apart from the issue of picking phoenix tail grass, there was another matter that had been on Ding Qi's mind these days.

His cultivation method was already approaching the eighth level. In the thirteen levels of innate true qi, he had already completed half of the cultivation journey.

However, even now, the common effects of martial arts cultivation methods, such as strengthening the body and increasing strength, had not shown any signs on him.

After cultivating forty years of power and reaching the seventh level of the cultivation method, only his senses had been significantly enhanced. There were no other special effects.

This made Ding Qi very puzzled.

Initially, when he was at the second level of innate true qi, Ding Qi thought that his cultivation realm was too low, which was why the characteristics of innate true qi had not manifested.

But now, with his cultivation realm already quite profound, there were still no changes in his physical strength and other aspects.

Ding Qi realized that the problem was not as simple as he had originally thought.

He had repeatedly thought about this issue.

In the end, he had some ideas.

He did not believe that such a profound cultivation method as innate true qi would have such obvious flaws.

Especially after the incident a few days ago, where the brocade infused true qi, which demonstrated the magic of this cultivation method.

This idea became even more firmly established.

Innate true qi had many inexplicable aspects, and it was impossible that it could not even enhance the body and increase strength, which were common abilities in ordinary martial arts cultivation methods.

Ding Qi suspected that the reason innate true qi had not shown any obvious abilities was that he had not found the correct way to use it.

Without an effective method, it was difficult to unleash the true power of the cultivation method.

Ding Qi vaguely realized that as long as he found the correct method, innate true qi could exert some magical effects.

Thinking about this, Ding Qi couldn't help but recall some of the cultivation content recorded in the eighth level of the method.

In the eighth level of innate true qi, in addition to the cultivation method for this level, there was an appendix that recorded a special section, which described three techniques for using innate true qi.

These three techniques were called Wind Control, Golden Body, and Great Strength.

These were the only techniques for using innate true qi that Ding Qi could find on the entire brocade.

Since he had guessed that innate true qi required special techniques to unleash its true power, he had been looking forward to these three techniques.

Recalling the specific cultivation methods of the three techniques, Ding Qi's face showed a look of eagerness, and he wanted to try them out immediately.

However, Ding Qi knew that he was not yet capable of cultivating these techniques.

Although the three cultivation methods were firmly etched in his mind, the requirements for cultivating them were quite high.

The basic requirement for starting cultivation was to have innate true qi at the eighth level.

Ding Qi was not yet qualified to cultivate them.

Subsequently, Ding Qi took the brocade out of his pocket and carefully reviewed the auxiliary techniques of the three methods again.

However, at this moment, Ding Qi suddenly frowned, as if he had thought of something.

His originally eager mood gradually cooled down.

"These three techniques, if they can live up to my expectations, would be the best. But if they can't... ." Thinking about this, Ding Qi couldn't help but shake his head.

Although Ding Qi had always been very hopeful about these three techniques, he was not sure that these cultivation methods could truly unleash the power of innate true qi.

Ding Qi suspected that these three techniques were merely ordinary auxiliary methods for innate true qi, not the true methods of use.

Ding Qi knew that most true qi cultivation methods in the martial arts world came with several auxiliary methods. For example, the Iron Sand Palm that Ding Qi bought in Liangcheng had two.
