nAfter they came back to the courtyard, the food that was prepared for them had already become cold. Wuying didn't have the time to prepare one today, so they had to eat what they had.

nAlthough it was cold, they finished everything after a moment. Wuying had to regain the lost blood and food was the best solution without counting pills. She could even use her Spirit Qi to increase the blood production, but she already depleted it in the fight they had earlier.

nThe ladies looked at each other without saying anything and decided to retire to their rooms for rest. They will for sure respect each other more after today's fight.

nXuefeng was supposed to start his training today, but due to the spar, they had to reschedule it for tomorrow.

n

"Try to choose a Spirit Art that you like for now. I will help you with the parts you can't understand later. Also, we will start your physical training in the morning too. Cultivation is not all about increasing your dantian capacity, but also strengthening your physical body.

" Wuying told him before entering her room.

nXuefeng glanced at the sunset and sighed. He had spent another day in foreign world. Today was the 4th day since he reincarnated. The more he stays here, the more dangerous it seems.

nHe entered his room and lied on the bed.

n'So we are alone for the rest of the evening. Ling, how is the process of modifying Spirit Arts?' He asked in his mind.

n'I'm almost done with the Clone Arts. What do you want me to modify next?' Ling started working as soon as they left Spirit Art Tower and she was almost done with the first one.

nHe thought for a moment before saying, 'Well, how about Sword Art for attacking?' All he could do at the moment was swinging the sword left and right.

n'As you wish. You said earlier that you want to get powerful. The fastest way for you to achieve that, is by gathering more Fate Fragments. Each one grants you a special Ability. Of course, if you kill someone with multiple fragments you will only get the main one. The others will be lost.' Ling proposed and added 'Before I finish, you can think of a way to get Princess Shan's necklace.'

n'Right, I think I can use the present I got from the Spirit Treasury to trade with her.' Xuefeng thought his original idea was okay. He couldn't think of anything else.

n'Or I can just pin her down to the bed and grab it by force…' A thought came into his mind but he quickly shook his head. Unfortunately, Princess Shan's perfect body was already stuck in his mind.

n'Aaargh, if this continues on, my Tianshi will become only a distant memory... I guess, it should be around the time they held a funeral for me on Earth. She is probably devastated, but after some time, she will move on, find herself a boyfriend, have kids…' He stopped imagining further as it was too painful.

n'Okay I'm done, It turned out somewhat decent. Come to my space to see.' Ling suddenly stopped his melancholic thoughts.

n'Okay.' He sat up cross-legged and closed his eyes. His mind slipped smoothly into his dantian and flew towards the Spirit. After a few times, he found it much easier to manipulate his mind in his dantian.

nHe touched the spirit and his mind was sucked inside.

nWhat awaited him, were all the Spirit Artefacts he had plundered from the Spirit Treasure and black flying orbs.

nHe pointed at the orbs and asked, 'Are these Spirit Arts?' He deduced as didn't see anything else inside the space.

n'Yeah, they are made from your Spirit QI. Here, this is the one I made.' A Black orb with a hint of gold flew towards him. It was slightly bigger than the others. It landed on his palm and he instantly felt a familiarity with it. It was his Spirit Qi after all.

n'What do I do with it?' He asked after checking it out. Does he have to pour in his Spirit Qi again?

n'Just absorb it into your body. The information will appear automatically in your mind.' Ling explained.

nThe moment he did, his head exploded with data. The whole description inscribed itself into his mind.

nEven without a vision, he knew how this Spirit Art worked. Basically, It was almost the same as the originals, but he could manipulate the amount of Spirit Qi he leaves in the clone.

nAfter the Spirit Qi inside of his copy depleted, the clone would still disappear.

nIt was also much faster and smoother than the previous versions.

nThe last new function it had could be regarded as best or worst one. It was the fact he had to control the clones with the Spirit Qi he left inside. Although it was hard to split his mind and do multiple things at the same time, it was doable as long as you practised a lot.

n'Wow, that's great work you did there. I can't wait for the other arts.' He praised her happily.

n'The only big downside of this Spirit Art is that you can't clone your Spirit Artefacts special features like your Black Flames. You can copy the sharpness of the blade, but not the soul.' Ling explained further.

n'Yeah, that was to be expected. You still did a good job. I will go practise it now.' Xuefeng slipped out of the space and returned back to his room.

nHe stood up and took a deep breath. It was his first time using his Spirit Qi on a Spirit Art. He followed the instructions according to the knowledge he just received and released his black Qi.

nIn theory, he had to scan his whole body and then transform Spirit Qi into a Spirit Qi Shell that looked exactly like him. The more Qi he used, the more real the clone would become. If he used more than two-tenths of his Qi, he could practically replicate his whole body, with muscles and blood to fool his enemies.

nIf only little Qi was used, the clone would be destroyed with one attack.

nAfter slowly scanning his whole body, he used three-tenths of his qi to create his first perfect clone. His dantian was still not replenished after copying manuals on the 5th floor, else he would use much more.

nHis Spirit Qi first transformed into different cells, then muscles and bones as he slowly built his body. This was his first creation, so he didn't want to rush anything. He followed the manual about how to transform Spirit Qi into different forms and after about two minutes, he was finally done creating a whole body.

nAfter he was done making himself, he manipulated his Qi and replicated his clothes.

n'Next time I should do it at the same time.' He thought embarrassed as he watched his naked body being covered by layers of clothing . What if someone entered the room right now? It would be even worse if it was Wuying or Princess Shan.

nThe whole process was completed in exactly three minutes. If he was in the middle of a battle, he would have died ten times already. Luckily , this was just his first time practising any type of Spirit Art.

nHe looked at the exact clone of himself and he was pretty pleased with himself. It was his first time after all.

nThe clone was standing without any motion, waiting for the Xuefeng to command it with his QI.

n

"Wait, before I start I should probably name this art somehow.

" He thought out loud.

n'Ling, what should we call it?' He asked the creator.

n'Just call it however you like. It's not like you will shout its name before activating it? I can just tell you it should be around rank 5.' Ling answered before going back into modifying the Spirit Arts. It was really hard and she needed her entire focus.

n

"Well, for now, I will call it

"Thousand Clones Legendary Spirit Art

" until I figure out a better name. I will get to a thousand clones somewhere in the future, right?

" He smiled at his random name before turning towards his clone.
