[Cultivation] [System] [Transmigration] [Borrowing Powers] [Sect Face-Slapping]
"Fellow Cultivator Pact binding. Fate as the bond, people as the path to enlightenment."
"The one who forms a bond with someone may establish a pact. They can borrow that person's strengths, but only borrow, never take."
He borrowed the iron bones his senior fellow disciple from the outer sect had spent six years cultivating. At the eighth level of Qi Refining, he took a claw strike from a demon beast head-on, and it left only a pale mark on his arm.
He borrowed the gifts of a genius girl with an eighth-grade spiritual root, too. A bottleneck that had held him back for two years suddenly loosened overnight.
Before the trial, an outer sect elder said in front of a thousand people:
"With a fifth-grade spiritual root, you only established your foundation last night. You won't make it."
Lu didn't argue. He simply showed them, one by one, what he had borrowed.
After that day, no one in Qingyun Sect dared claim that one's spiritual root determined one's fate.
Cultivation isn't all fighting and killing. What matters in cultivation is human relationships.
