BXBX NOVEL Chapter 10
He got up and looked around the cave, only to find Perfected Chi Yao busy in the alchemy room.
Sensing the movement behind him, Perfected Chi Yao turned around in surprise, you can’t rush to succeed in cultivation. Take it slow. There’s no rush.
“Disciple has already cultivated the first level of the [ Glorious Crimson Sutra ].”
As he spoke, he started to circulate the first level of the Glorious Crimson Sutra. A faint, restless fire-attributed aura appeared around his body.
Perfected Chi Yao’s eyes widened in astonishment, “It’s only been a short while, and… Then… You’ve fully comprehended it?”
“Although my cultivation talent is average, my comprehension is still okay.”
After recovering from his shock, Perfected Chi Yao was actually at a loss as to what to do. He circled around Cheng Xu and looked at him again and again, so excited that he couldn’t contain himself.
He was already very satisfied with Cheng Xu’s talent in alchemy, but he didn’t expect his talent in cultivation to be so outstanding as well.
“That shouldn’t be… With such good aptitude, even the Yunzhong sect doesn’t take a fancy to him? ” Perfected Chi Yao found it inconceivable.
“That… it might be because I was agitated by being expelled from the sect, “Cheng Xu explained awkwardly. “My brain is a lot more enlightened than before.”
“Hahaha, it seems like I have picked up a treasure.”
The more Perfected Chi Yao thought about it, the more excited he became.
Their lineage had been silent for so many years. Was a decent talent finally going to appear?
“Without your appreciation, I wouldn’t be where I am now.” Cheng Xu was sincerely grateful.
“Good! Good! Good!” Perfected Chi Yao said three times in a row, “Such a good cultivation potential. Suddenly, I don’t know how I should be nurturing you.”
In the midst of his excitement, Miao Changsheng rushed over, puzzled. what’s wrong, Master? I’ve just left, why did you call me here again?”
Perfected Chi Yao laughed and said, “Haha, I originally wanted to wait for Little Cheng to fully comprehend the cultivation technique before telling you guys. I didn’t expect Little Cheng to have already comprehended the first layer of the [ Glorious Crimson Sutra ] so quickly.”
“What’s this?!” Miao Changsheng’s eyes widened in disbelief.
After confirming that Cheng Xu’s body was circulating with the true Qi of the Glorious Crimson Sutra, he was forced to accept the truth.
“Good fellow, is Senior Brother still human? It’s fine if his talent in alchemy is so heaven-defying, but even his talent in cultivation is so shocking. This, this, this…” Miao Changsheng sized up Cheng Xu in disbelief. “By the way, is there something wrong with the brains of the Yunzhong sect’s higher-ups?”
“What do you want to tell me, Master?” Cheng Xu smiled and asked curiously.
“It’s like this.” Perfected Chi Yao’s expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, “The sect leader and the elders attached great importance to this turmoil of the demonic path and developed a set of plans to improve the overall strength of the sect, especially you little guys.”
“What do you mean? is the Medicine Immortal Valley going to delve into martial arts? ” Miao Changsheng asked in shock.
“More or less.” Perfected Chi Yao said profoundly, “This time, the demonic path has made such a big movement. I’m afraid the following situation will be even worse. If we don’t have enough martial strength, it’ll be very difficult for our Medicine Immortal Valley to protect ourselves.”
“Is it really that serious?” Miao Changsheng asked.
Perfected Chi Yao sighed. “You’re still young and haven’t experienced the demonic Dao’s turmoil. You don’t understand how terrifying it is. During that demonic Dao’s turmoil, only one-fifth of the Medicine Immortal Valley disciples in my generation survived.”
Cheng Xu and Miao Changsheng gasped in shock.
“So this time, the sect leader has decided to take out all his resources from the sect’s treasure house to fully support the disciples in improving their strength. We can’t let the tragedy of that year happen again. Unfortunately, Little Cheng has not officially joined the sect yet, so he can’t enjoy these resources for the time being. But don’t worry, I will find a way to help you get some.”
Cheng Xu was deeply touched. thank you, master.
Compared to the situation in Yunzhong sect, this relationship between master and disciple was particularly precious.
“There will be a competition in a month, and you will be provided with cultivation resources according to the results. Unfortunately, Little Cheng will definitely not be able to participate.”
“It seems that the sect leader is serious this time.” Miao Changsheng was secretly amazed.
“That’s right.” Perfected Chi Yao nodded. “The thousand-year foundation of an alchemist sect is enough to send your generation to a very high level. The premise is that you must also work hard.”
It was a pity that he couldn’t participate in the sect’s benefit distribution this time.
If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame the Yunzhong sect. Not only did they expel him from the Yunzhong sect, but they also prevented him from joining other sects in peace.
It was really harmful!
“Don’t worry, master. I will do my best!” Miao Changsheng patted his chest and promised.
…
East of the Medicine Immortal Valley, floating Immortal City.
This was the largest gathering place for itinerant cultivators in mini Southern Heaven. It was also the largest city of cultivators in mini Southern Heaven. All the major sects and merchants had businesses here, and the Medicine Immortal Valley was no exception.
The city was bustling with noise and excitement. The pedestrians on the streets were basically all cultivators, and mortals were a minority.
Because of his identity as an abandoned disciple, Cheng Xu couldn’t stay in the Medicine Immortal Valley openly for the time being. He could only stay in the floating Immortal City for a while.
It wouldn’t be too late to wait until the Yunzhong sect had forgotten about this unremarkable abandoned disciple of theirs.
After a simple stroll around the floating Immortal City, he found a few places that provided cultivation rooms.
The condition of the quiet room was much better than that of the Yuntai Mountain, but the rental price was also outrageously expensive.
It couldn’t be helped, it was a big city after all.
In the end, he rented a cultivation room with poor conditions for five spirit stones a day for a month, and the total was 150 spirit stones.
In the quiet room, Cheng Xu was secretly sorting out the items he had plundered from the demonic cultivator’s corpse.
He still had around 9,000 spirit stones. Other than that, he also had some disgusting demonic cultivation materials, as well as some demonic cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques.
Demonic Cultivation methods and martial arts techniques were obviously not suitable for Cheng Xu, and he did not want to cultivate demonic cultivation methods either. However, some of the martial arts techniques and ancient books were universal.
What surprised Cheng Xu the most was a book that recorded advanced martial arts theories.
It was 74MB in size. Even though a portion of the data had been covered during the installation, it was still 67MB.
[ Martial arts skill (102.3MB) ]
[ Martial arts theory: Intermediate ]
[ Spell theory: elementary ]
[ Martial arts skills installed: Tiger Subduing Fist (7MB), Setting Sun Finger (3.5MB), Protective Dipper energy (4.8MB), Cloud Steps (6MB), Earth Escape technique (22.4) ]
Cheng Xu gave it a simple try. After his martial arts theory had been upgraded to the intermediate level, his martial arts skills had become more proficient in his hands, and their power and effect had improved significantly.
the next step is to cultivate, earn money, and upgrade the configuration!
“That’s right, can the recipe for the foundation building elixir be further optimized?”
On the way to the Medicine Immortal Valley, the formula for the foundation establishment pill had already been optimized for the second time.
Unfortunately, the effect of the optimization this time was obviously not as good as the first time. The last rare herb was not optimized, but the other ingredients were optimized.
Now that the [ Alchemy ] application had expanded so much, it should be able to continue to be optimized, right?
He clicked the ‘optimize’ button and the data could be further optimized.
However, the optimization this time would take a full 10 days and 15 hours.
From this, it could be seen that the speed of pill recipe optimization was not only related to the computer configuration, but also related to the difficulty of optimization.
“I hope you’ll give me a surprise in ten days.”
He put away the system panel and started to circulate the “Glorious Crimson Sutra” to replace the true Qi in his body.
There wasn’t much true Qi in the late-stage of Qi refining, so it was easy to replace it. In just one night, the true Qi in his body had been replaced by the Crimson true Qi of the Glorious Crimson Sutra.
He had to admit that high-end cultivation techniques were indeed different. The cultivation speed was much faster than the cloud cultivation technique.
Coupled with the rich spiritual energy in the floating Immortal City and the support of the middle-grade Qi-gathering elixir, his cultivation was simply carefree.
If his previous cultivation speed was like walking on two legs, then his current cultivation speed was equivalent to riding a bicycle.
“The Qi-gathering elixir has been used up. I can try a higher-grade Qi-gathering elixir now.”
After installing so much elixir refinement data in the library, the [ elixir refinement ] application had already unlocked many higher-grade pills, including the Qi condensation pill, which was a substitute for the Qi-gathering elixir.
Walking out of the quiet room, the floating Immortal City was full of vitality under the morning sun.
He found a store that sold medicinal herbs and elixirs nearby and purchased a batch of ingredients for the Qi-gathering elixir.
After he was done, he strolled around the shops of various sizes in the floating Immortal City and obtained a lot of data.
Alchemy (179.5 MB)
Refining (54.2 MB)
Talisman (37.4MB)
Array (43.8MB)
Encyclopedia of General Studies (78.5MB)
…
He returned to the quiet room and began to try to refine the Qi-gathering elixir.
with the current level of [ Alchemy ], there shouldn’t be any problem in refining Qi-gathering elixirs. I just don’t know if it can reach mid-grade.
As he spoke, he processed the various medicinal materials according to the refining details in the formula. Then, he put them all into the [ formula ] interface and handed them to the cultivation computer to process.
“Refining …”
The familiar refining screen appeared in front of him, and the refining progress bar was displayed on top.
“It’s alright, it’s pretty fast.”
Perhaps it was because the ingredients had been processed beforehand, the refining process was much faster than expected.
In addition, after the last round of configuration upgrades, Cheng Xu’s mental power was no longer the same as before, and he felt almost no discomfort during the refining process.
Ding! Ding!
After the refinement was completed, the medicinal fragrance filled the air.
After the faint light faded, a cauldron of two Qi-gathering elixirs appeared in front of Cheng Xu. They were both of medium quality.
“Only two? The loss is a Little Big ~!”
Although he had successfully refined a mid-grade Qi-gathering elixir, Cheng Xu was not very satisfied with the rate of loss.
According to his theoretical calculations, the physical limit of a set of Qi-gathering elixir’s ingredients should be five completed elixirs. However, he had only managed to refine two elixirs in one batch, so there was still a lot of room for improvement.
After midnight, ten cauldrons of Qi-gathering elixirs were completed, and there were a total of twenty mid-grade Qi-gathering elixirs.
Then, he took a Qi-gathering elixir to help with his cultivation.
The elixir melted in his mouth, and he could not feel any impurities. The pure medicinal power quickly seeped into his body.
He activated the Glorious Crimson Sutra and started cultivating.
my goodness, the speed of Zhen Qi condensation has more than doubled. Cheng Xu was greatly shocked.
In comparison, the middle-grade Qi-gathering elixir was simply too weak.
It was already the afternoon of the next day when the effect of the Qi-gathering elixir was exhausted.
‘Phew ~ if I continue to cultivate at this speed, I will reach the peak of the Qi refining stage soon.’
Cheng Xu couldn’t help but look forward to the future.
Walking out of the cultivation room, he was ready to sell a few Qi-gathering elixirs to earn money, but he saw that a tenant had moved into the cultivation room next door, which had been empty all this time. It was a female cultivator.
But that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that the tenant looked familiar.
“Fellow Daoist Cheng?”
The female cultivator also seemed to have noticed Cheng Xu. It was actually Yue Wanling, whom he had met at the market City of Yuntai Mountain.
“Fairy, you’ve also come to the floating Immortal City?” Cheng Xu was pleasantly surprised to see an acquaintance.
