The next day.
Chen Guan saw Song Gantang off.
"This is a second-tier communication talisman I bought, you can take it."
"As long as we are 300 li apart, we can still contact each other."
Chen Guan was puzzled. Was 300 li that far?
With Song Gantang's strength, she could easily fly beyond 300 li in a few days.
Chen Guan smiled helplessly and took the communication talisman.
"300 li is too close."
"You can easily fly beyond that range."
"Anyway, just take it." Song Gantang said helplessly.
Getting a good communication talisman was too difficult.
A third-tier communication talisman was worth tens of thousands of spirit stones, it was too wasteful to spend it on communication.
Song Gantang glanced at Ji Yuyu and Runchun.
"My two sisters."
"And my husband, I'm leaving the sect."
Chen Guan nodded, "Go."
Song Gantang flew away on her cloud boat.
Ji Yuyu hugged Chen Guan's arm, "Husband, you should sleep here tonight, right?"
Chen Guan smiled, "Of course."
"Today I plan to go to the sect square to teach the Azure Profound Technique."
"Cultivate well."
With a flick of his Purple Bamboo Sword, Chen Guan flew towards the sect square.
Chen Guan first went to the main hall, cupping his hands to report, "Senior Lan, today I plan to teach the key points of the Azure Profound Technique."
"You're going to teach the Azure Profound Technique?"
"Today, a Foundation Establishment cultivator will also be teaching the Azure Profound Technique."
"There might not be many people listening to your teaching of the Azure Profound Technique."
Chen Guan smiled, "Teaching ten people is enough, isn't it?"
"It's a simple task."
After saying this, Chen Guan left the main hall and headed to the southwest corner of the sect square.
At worst, he could use his money-counting ability; listening to his lecture would earn him a spirit stone.
Some early Qi Refining disciples would definitely be willing to listen to his lecture for an hour for that one spirit stone.
This would also be a contribution to the sect.
Southwest corner.
"The meridians reside in the dantian; guard them with your spirit, and your qi will move with your will."
"When you cultivate, you must be completely focused."
A middle-aged cultivator was lecturing on the Azure Profound Technique; his temples were slightly gray, and he looked somewhat old.
Chen Guan listened for a while, then walked to an open space.
"Everyone, I am the newly appointed Elder Instructor, Chen Guan."
"Ten people come here to listen to my lecture for one hour; each person will receive a spirit stone."
A spirit stone?
Upon hearing this, three passing disciples hurriedly came to Chen Guan's side.
"Greetings, Senior Chen."
Chen Guan said calmly, "I will begin teaching once there are ten people."
Hearing this, the Foundation Establishment cultivator who was teaching his disciples couldn't help but glance at Chen Guan.
He was a young Foundation Establishment cultivator.
He was furious and shouted, "Fellow Daoist, you're tarnishing the reputation of the Elder Professor!"
"The knowledge we possess has its own value, and you're actually giving your disciple spirit stones?"
Chen Guan said calmly. "I haven't interfered with you."
"Say what you will, I have my own mission."
For a moment, the Foundation Establishment cultivator was speechless.
He didn't bother with Chen Guan.
But after waiting a while, Chen Guan still couldn't find ten people.
"Do any of you three know any disciples? Why don't you introduce them to us, making it ten?"
"I'm doing this for my mission, you're doing this for spirit stones, let's each get what we need," Chen Guan said.
"No problem, Senior, we'll go find you right away."
Giving spirit stones was a very quick method, and the three of them soon had ten people.
"Senior Chen, ten people have arrived."
Chen Guan nodded and smiled. "Alright, let's begin the lesson now."
"Let's start with the Azure Profound Technique."
"The Azure Profound Technique is a basic method of Qi cultivation, and Qi cultivation also involves our spiritual root aptitude."
"It should begin with the Ren and Du meridians, then be circulated to the other meridians."
"This way, the spiritual energy flowing from the Ren and Du meridians is very fast and won't harm the other meridians."
"Nonsense!"
A Foundation Establishment cultivator standing nearby was furious. "Chen Guan? You're misleading the disciples." "
You're trying to ruin the foundations of the sect's disciples with your strange and ingenious techniques?"
Chen Guan glanced at the other man indifferently. "And who are you?"
"Teaching me how to do things?"
"Long Shengyun!" The Foundation Establishment cultivator said angrily.
"I'm just teaching you how to do things, so what?"
"You're misleading the disciples, I'm going to report you to Fellow Daoist Lan."
Long Shengyun's disciple was also muttering.
"Yes, this elder started by using spirit stones to lure people in."
"He doesn't seem like a good person."
"That's right, he definitely wants to harm us."
With his Foundation Establishment cultivation, Chen Guan could naturally hear these whispers.
"Long Shengyun, how old were you when you broke through to Foundation Establishment?" Chen Guan asked directly.
"What's it to you?"
Chen Guan smiled calmly and asked, "Do you know how old I was when I broke through to Foundation Establishment?"
As soon as he said this,
the disciples began to compare Chen Guan and Long Shengyun.
Long Shengyun was too old, while Chen Guan looked like a young man.
They were also looking forward to seeing how old Chen Guan was when he broke through to Foundation Establishment.
"Since I started cultivating, it has been seven years. I accidentally had an epiphany about the Azure Profound Technique, which made my cultivation complete."
"Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I have already broken through to Foundation Establishment."
"And you? How long did it take you to go from the first level of Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment?"
"In addition, I need to add one more thing, I have three elemental roots."
Three elemental roots, seven years to break through to Foundation Establishment!
Upon hearing this, the disciples gasped.
Some outer disciples even realized that the Foundation Establishment elder in front of them had once been their junior.
"Elder Chen is actually so powerful?"
For a moment, the disciples were restless, eager to approach Chen Guan and hear him teach them the Azure Profound Technique.
Not listening would be a huge loss!
After hearing Chen Guan's extraordinary experience, Long Shengyun felt embarrassed.
He dared not claim to have mastered the Azure Profound Technique.
Because he possessed dual spiritual roots, it had taken him nearly fifty years to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and now, after wasting most of his life, he was only at the second level.
Long Shengyun cupped his hands and said, "I was impolite." "
Since you are here to teach the Azure Profound Technique, I will leave." If
he couldn't afford to offend him, he could at least avoid him.
Reaching Foundation Establishment in seven years, Chen Guan's future was sure to be stronger than his.
Long Shengyun didn't dare to confront him directly.
A cloud boat appeared, and he piloted it away from the sect square.
Chen Guan felt the gazes of the disciples and smiled calmly, "Alright, continue teaching the Azure Profound Technique."
"Qi flows from the heart meridian..."
Chen Guan continued teaching the Azure Profound Technique.
An hour later.
"Alright, I've finished explaining the Qi cultivation method of the Azure Profound Technique. Whether you can comprehend it or not is up to you."
"Next month, I will explain the Fireball Technique."
"Those interested can come and listen; those not interested can still see if they can snag a spot among the top ten disciples."
Chen Guan took out spirit stones and distributed them to the ten disciples who had already completed
the task, then flew away on his sword. Completing the task with ten spirit stones seemed quite easy.
Good for both the disciples and Chen Guan.
That night.
Ji Yuyu chuckled and hugged Chen Guan.
"Husband, I want you to help me cultivate!"
Chen Guan grabbed her hands, a smile playing on his lips. "No big deal, watch me refine you."
"No way~ Husband."
An hour later.
Ji Yuyu broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining and was currently cultivating cross-legged on the bed.
"This is possible?"
"Didn't you say that bottlenecks take a long time to overcome?"
After Ji Yuyu broke through, Chen Guan congratulated her with a smile, "Congratulations on breaking through to the late stage of Qi Refining."
"But didn't you say the bottleneck was huge?"
Ji Yuyu blushed, "It's all because of you."
"Me?"
Chen Guan frowned. What could he be special about?
"I was a great help to you?"
"But didn't we try it before?"
Ji Yuyu shook her head, "I don't know, but I suddenly felt that the spiritual energy in my meridians had become much more abundant, and the bottleneck was broken through all at once." Chen
Guan thought about it and realized that it might be because of the Huang Yuan Root with ten thousand times the medicinal effect that he had not yet fully refined in his abdomen.
The True Source Taicang absorbed everything from the Huang Yuan Root to nourish Chen Guan's five internal organs.
This also made him a great tonic?
Even his blood was...
"In this state, Runchun cannot share a room with me."
Chen Guan thought about it and decided that, just in case, Runchun, as a mortal, could not be risked.
Fortunately, Ji Yuyu had sensed this change.
"Gan Tang didn't even notice?"
"Perhaps the medicinal power I released wasn't enough to replenish what's infused into a Foundation Establishment cultivator."
Chen Guan calmed himself and smiled at Ji Yuyu, saying, "Late Qi Refining is already quite good."
"Hmm, I guess I'm a little genius?"
"No one else cultivates as fast as me."
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Guan laughed exaggeratedly, "Yuyu is already amazing."
"Hmph."
Ji Yuyu laughed happily, then hugged Chen Guan, "Husband, I want to rest."
Rest during the day?
I think your rest is inappropriate!
...
It wasn't until evening that
Chen Guan and Ji Yuyu left the room.
At this moment, Ji Yuyu looked like she had eaten a great tonic, her face rosy and beautiful.
"Young Master, I've prepared food for you."
Chen Guan smiled, embraced Runchun, "Runchun, give me a kiss."
With that, Chen Guan kissed Runchun's cheek.
Runchun's eyes lit up with joy after being kissed by Chen Guan.
"Let's eat."
Chen Guan led one of the beauties to the kitchen.
Night.
Chen Guan cultivated alone, refining the Yellow Origin Root within his body.
With the True Source Taicang inscription present, Chen Guan was essentially unharmed.
At most, his medicinal power would leak out.
His body was rapidly changing, his heart surging with vibrant blood.
Chen Guan circulated the True Blood Scripture, condensing true blood.
A drop of true blood contained approximately three hundred strands of spiritual energy. If the True Blood Scripture were perfected, Chen Guan, with his physical body, would be practically invincible at the Foundation Establishment stage. A
perfected True Blood Scripture would grant him the power to shatter mountains.
Several days passed.
Chen Guan perfectly absorbed the Yellow Origin Root.
"A section of Yellow Origin Root with ten thousand times the medicinal power, and it took so long to refine it."
"But I only obtained thirty drops of true blood."
Chen Guan felt his blood flow more powerfully, the true blood nourishing his body.
—Host
: Chen Guan
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 1 (0%)
Cultivation Technique: Qingxuan Scripture (2%)
Spells: True Blood Scripture (1%) Weapon Control Technique (5%) Wave Palm (1%)...
"True Blood Scripture is still only one percent?"
"Too slow."
His cultivation progress was also very slow, and dual cultivation with Ji Yuyu didn't improve him much.
"Dual cultivation techniques are no good, and I'm higher than Ji Yuyu, so I'm basically the one being absorbed, not actually dual cultivation."
"This is difficult."
Chen Guan left seclusion and went to Runchun's room to do some things that everyone likes to do.
Afterwards.
Runchun hugged Chen Guan's neck and lay in his arms, murmuring, "Young Master is the best."
Chen Guan stroked his smooth jade back, but was thinking about whether he could do something fun with Runchun while he was taking Huangyuan Root?
"It's better not to take the risk."
"Prepare the necessary items for the cave dwelling."
He couldn't stay here forever.
Chen Guan also had his own secrets, and he also hoped to have a secluded place.
The next day.
Chen Guan came out of Runchun's room.
Ji Yuyu, who had gotten up early to cultivate, looked over resentfully.
"What are you looking at? It's just spending one night with Runchun."
Chen Guan walked up to Ji Yuyu, gently pinched her nose, and said with amusement, "You're jealous of this?"
"Jealous!"
Ji Yuyu said, "My husband didn't spend time with me first after he came out of seclusion."
Chen Guan ruffled her hair.
"I'll spend a few days cultivating with you."
"I need to continue my cultivation now."
Ji Yuyu asked, "Does this mean dual cultivation with me is no longer effective?"
"The effect isn't ideal," Chen Guan smiled.
"But it's alright, as long as you can cultivate."
"I need to prepare some materials for my cave dwelling these next few days."
"I plan to open a cave dwelling near Hundred Medicine Peak for cultivation."
After giving these instructions,
Chen Guan left.
In the market of Hundred Medicine Peak,
Chen Guan found Zhao Xianhua.
Zhao Xianhua recognized Chen Guan and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Senior Chen."
Chen Guan smiled and nodded, "I wanted to inquire with you whether there are any array masters within the sect?"
"Array masters?" Zhao Xianhua's expression was strange.
"Our sect does indeed have a formation master, but it's Elder Bi Zhenyan, a Golden Core cultivator."
"Formations are a difficult subject to learn and master."
"The Wanbaozhai, not far from the Qingxuan Sect, has formation masters and also sells formation flags and plates." "
The Danding Peak Market also sells a batch of formations purchased from Wanbaozhai every month."
After Zhao Xianhua finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Senior, that's all I know."
"If you want to learn formations, you can only start from the very basics."
"No one is willing to truly teach you."
Chen Guan nodded, took out ten spirit stones and handed them to the other party, then flew away on his sword.
Danding Peak Market.
Chen Guan immediately spotted a pavilion selling formations.
Its name was simply 'Danding Peak Formation Pavilion.
' "That's rather tacky."
Chen Guan stepped into the pavilion and immediately felt spiritual energy swirling within it in a specific form.
"Senior, are you here to purchase an array?"
Chen Guan nodded. "I'd like a Spirit Gathering Array."
"A Spirit Gathering Array? How large do you need?"
Chen Guan didn't have a cave dwelling, so after thinking for a moment, he said, "A radius of fifty meters will suffice."
"No problem. This type of array only costs five thousand spirit stones. If you have contribution points, you can use them as a bargaining chip."
Contribution points are so hard to obtain, and you want to exchange them?
A swindler!
That was Chen Guan's first impression.
"This Spirit Gathering Array will do."
"Do you have any arrays that can withstand Foundation Establishment attacks?" Chen Guan asked.
"We do have similar formations, but they're quite common, priced around 20,000 spirit stones."
"If you have any special needs, we can help you make contact."
Chen Guan shook his head, "No need."
"Let me see what defensive formations you have."
"No problem."
The cultivator greeted Chen Guan, raising his hand to introduce, "This is the Azure Gang Formation, with five array stones. The array eye is where spirit stones are placed to provide spiritual energy to the formation. It costs 16,600 spirit stones."
"Another one is the Stubborn Gold Formation, consisting of three array flags and one array stone. It costs 23,000 spirit stones."
"Next to it is the Five Directions Formation, consisting of five array pillars and a control plate. It costs 66,000 spirit stones."
Hearing the prices getting higher and higher, Chen Guan pointed to the original Azure Gang Formation and said, "I'll take this Azure Gang Formation."
"No problem!"
"Do you need us to help you set it up, senior?"
"No need."
After the transaction, Chen Guan carried the finished formation and a simple array diagram for reference.
"After buying the array, I don't have many spirit stones left."
Chen Guan had less than ten thousand spirit stones in his storage ring.
If he sold some items in his storage ring, he should still have ten or twenty thousand spirit stones.
But would that be enough?
"I'll use it for now." Chen Guan decided.
If he didn't have enough spirit stones, he would try to sell some spirit herbs.
"The best location for my cave dwelling is to be secluded."
Chen Guan didn't have a great need for spiritual energy because he had the Fantasy Herb Soil.
Chen Guan flew around on his sword near Hundred Herb Peak, searching for a mountain range with abundant spiritual energy, where no one would build a cave dwelling.
"Finally found a mountain without a cave dwelling."
"The view here is good; I'll build here."
There weren't many places to choose from, and Chen Guan had no other choice.
Chen Guan's Purple Bamboo Sword flew out, continuously carving out the shape of a cave.
Then he took out the Spirit Gathering Array and the Azure Gang Array to set them up.
"It's all set up."
Chen Guan looked around at the empty cave, which was dimly lit. "It only has a little spiritual energy. If it weren't for the need for tranquility," he
thought. "I really wouldn't want to build a cave dwelling."
Chen Guan then flew away on his sword and arrived at the main hall of Hundred Herbs Peak.
"Senior Lan, I've found a cave dwelling and have come to report its location," Chen Guan said, bowing.
This was necessary to show that Chen Guan had occupied the mountain and that no one else could take it.
Lan Huanyu said calmly, "Hmm, just state the location."
Chen Guan explained in detail.
After a while, he left the main hall of Hundred Herbs Peak.
"The formation requires a lot of spirit stones. I still need to sell my talismans."
A day passed.
Chen Guan earned several thousand spirit stones in the market.
"The money I earned is still too little."
Chen Guan thought of Wanbaozhai, a powerful organization near Qingxuan Sect.
He might be able to go there incognito and sell a Huangyuan Root with ten thousand times the medicinal effect.
Such items could prolong life and could fetch a good price.
He was afraid he would encounter danger.
"A ten-thousand-fold increase is too shocking to the world; three ordinary portions of Huang Yuan Gen will suffice."
...
The next day.
Chen Guan left the Gentle Paradise, explained to Ji Yuyu, and then left the Qingxuan Sect, flying on his sword to Wanbaozhai.
"Wow~"
Truly flying on a sword between heaven and earth, Chen Guan looked at the magnificent scenery and couldn't help but feel playful, flying his sword through mountains and forests.
After getting tired of playing, Chen Guan rushed to Wanbaozhai at full speed.
It took nearly two days for Chen Guan to reach Wanbaozhai's territory.
This place was like a huge city, and the largest, most magnificent, and resplendent building was Wanbaozhai!
Further out of Wanbaozhai, there were eight tall pillars with intricate patterns standing in the eight directions.
"Is this Wanbaozhai?"
"It's really magnificent."
Chen Guan couldn't take it all in; it was too prosperous, with spiritual light floating from the sky.
It was his first time entering Wanbaozhai, and even the floor was intricately carved.
"This Foundation Establishment master, I can serve you." A Qi Refining female cultivator hugged Chen Guan's arm.
Chen Guan raised his hand to refuse, "No need."
"My lord, you misunderstand. I meant I could take you on a tour of Wanbaozhai, it only requires a little spirit stone."
Chen Guan flipped his hand, and a spirit stone appeared in his palm.
"Is that enough?"
"Enough!" The woman smiled and took the spirit stone, then said, "My lord is so handsome, I can accompany you until tomorrow."
Chen Guan said calmly, "Just take me to a place that sells spirit herbs."
"No problem, my lord."
With the woman leading the way, Chen Guan quickly arrived at a place that sold spirit herbs.
"This Foundation Establishment cultivator, are you here to sell spirit herbs?"
"Yes, how many spirit stones can a Jade Lotus sell for?" Chen Guan asked.
"One Jade Lotus can sell for three thousand spirit stones, the Jade Lotus pod including the lotus seeds can sell for five thousand spirit stones, and if there is Jade Lotus root, it sells for one thousand spirit stones per pound."
Quite profitable.
Chen Guan took out one Jade Lotus.
"Three lotus flowers, one lotus pod, and five pounds of lotus root." Chen Guan said calmly.
"Hiss~"
The receptionist gasped and quickly summoned a helper.
A young man with a smile on his face came to the front desk and bowed to Chen Guan, saying, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
"Fellow Daoist is so lucky to have obtained a complete Jade Lotus."
"Let me check its quality."
He examined it carefully for a while, then nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, the quality is excellent."
"I'll give you 20,000 spirit stones, what do you think, Fellow Daoist?"
"Alright."
20,000!
The woman attending to Chen Guan was astonished. She worked herself to the bone all day, and could only earn a dozen or so spirit stones for picking up a customer.
A Foundation Establishment cultivator had just made a move and received 20,000 spirit stones?
For a moment, the woman tightened her grip on Chen Guan's hands.
Chen Guan patted her hand, indicating that she could let go.
With 20,000 spirit stones in hand, was there any need for him to stay?
This time, he was merely testing the price of Foundation Establishment elixirs.
"In a good mood, here's ten spirit stones for you."
Chen Guan casually gave some spirit stones to the maid accompanying him and then silently left Wanbaozhai. Passing by a stall, he bought ten masks and some black cloaks.
A day later.
Chen Guan returned to Wanbaozhai.
This time, he wore a black cloak and a monkey mask.
Chen Guan quickly arrived at the section of Wanbaozhai where elixirs were sold.
"Senior, what kind of elixirs do you sell?"
Chen Guan asked hoarsely, "I sell Foundation Establishment elixirs, what's it to you?"
"Find someone in charge!"
"Yes, senior."
The receptionist didn't dare to say anything more and quickly found someone in charge.
It was the same young Foundation Establishment cultivator from yesterday.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist." The other party cupped his hands and asked, "What kind of Foundation Establishment elixir do you sell, fellow Daoist?"
"Yellow Yuan Root." Chen Guan said calmly.
"A Yellow Yuan Root three inches long is acceptable; our Wanbaozhai can purchase it for 10,000 spirit stones."
"For every inch longer, the price doubles."
Chen Guan was extremely surprised. He imagined that Yellow Yuan Roots cultivated in medicinal soil were generally five inches long.
Only when increased ten thousand times would the Yellow Yuan Root become exceptionally large.
"If it's five inches long, what's the price?" Chen Guan's hoarse voice was filled with curiosity.
"Five inches long, double the price, 40,000 spirit stones."
"If it's six inches long, 80,000 spirit stones." The other party introduced with a smile.
Chen Guan took out two jade boxes and placed them on the wooden table, "Two Yellow Yuan Roots five inches long."
"Can you make the decision?"
"You flatter me, esteemed guest. As long as it's below 300,000 spirit stones, I, Zhang, can make the decision."
"A mere 80,000 spirit stones is nothing to worry about."
"May I open the jade boxes to examine them?" Zhang Shuzheng asked with a smile, his gaze already examining the jade boxes for a while.
Chen Guan nodded, "Of course."
Zhang Shuzheng opened the two jade boxes and carefully examined the two Huangyuan Roots for a while. He was extremely surprised, "The quality is actually so good?"
"I can make the decision, I'll add ten thousand to the price of your two Huangyuan Roots."
"Are you willing to sell, fellow Daoist?"
Another price increase, this guy is too generous, not a single thought of being a shrewd merchant. No wonder Wanbaozhai can be so big and powerful.
Chen Guan nodded, "Yes!"
"Fellow Daoist, come with me, to avoid outsiders seeing you take away so many spirit stones and causing unnecessary trouble."
It was just a transaction inside the shop. The other party gave 100,000 spirit stones, and Chen Guan only gave two Huangyuan Roots.
After receiving the spirit stones, Chen Guan quickly left Wanbaozhai.
But there were two auras behind him that he couldn't shake off no matter what he did.
"What's going on?"
Chen Guan's face darkened. He had clearly concealed his aura, yet the other party clung to him like a leech.
Even as he wandered around the Wanbaozhai, these two auras followed him relentlessly.
...
"He seems to have discovered us?"
"So what if he discovered us?" "
Those two portions of Huangyuan Root must have sold for a lot of spirit stones. Let's just follow him."
"If we kill him, we'll make a fortune."
One cultivator held an insect in his palm, its rear end glowing faintly.
Another cultivator had a fox around his neck.
"Boss, did your spirit pet really see his strength?"
"What nonsense!"
"My Rongzhu naturally saw his strength; he's only at the first level of Foundation Establishment."
"With our strength, we can definitely handle him."
As the two cultivators were exchanging words, the insect's glow suddenly dimmed.
"Not good, boss, he's rapidly moving away from us."
"Chase!"
Chen Guan swiftly flew away on his sword.
But the two cultivators also pursued relentlessly on their spiritual weapons.
Chen Guan was eventually caught.
Two cultivators blocked Chen Guan's path, one in front and one behind.
Chen Guan exhaled, "I'm curious, why have you been able to keep chasing me?"
He might be able to handle two early Foundation Establishment cultivators.
"We brothers value peace. Hand over 50,000 spirit stones, and we might talk to you," said the cultivator with a fox around his neck, smiling.
As he spoke, a spiritual weapon appeared in his hand.
This weapon resembled a shield, yet also looked like eight swords combined.
"Be sensible, and we won't take your life." A sharp-edged spiritual weapon appeared beside the cultivator behind him.
Chen Guan chuckled, brimming with confidence, "Then take it!"
Water Transformation!
Chen Guan's entire body instantly transformed into flowing water.
"Wave Palm!"
Using his physical body as the foundation and Azure Profound True Qi as a supplement, a wave covering a hundred meters instantly crashed down.
The spiritual power was instantly revealed, and the cultivator in front changed his expression drastically.
The cultivator behind him then manipulated his spiritual weapon to stab at Chen Guan.
"Bang!"
The Wave Palm landed, and the cultivator with the fox around his neck was instantly slammed to the ground.
Even with his defensive magical artifacts protecting him, he appeared utterly disheveled.
The artifacts of the cultivators behind him pierced through Chen Guan's body, yet he remained unharmed.
Chen Guan turned, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, "And you!"
"Wave Palm!"
Another palm strike came, the opponent unable to dodge, instantly slammed to the ground.
Chen Guan drew his Great Poison Sword!
"Go!"
He activated his weapon control technique, the Great Poison Sword thrusting forth in an instant.
"Clang!"
A flying knife arrived in an instant, deflecting Chen Guan's flying sword.
Chen Guan narrowed his eyes, his Spiritual Eyes instantly activating, allowing him to assess the situation.
"Go!"
After rescuing the person, the leader instantly threw out a fox to obstruct Chen Guan.
The fox was at the early Foundation Establishment stage.
It instantly grew larger, spitting out red light, which flew towards him in an instant.
Chen Guan didn't dodge at all, even flying towards the fox.
The red light pierced through Chen Guan's watery body, but he was completely unaffected.
"Wave Palm!"
With a single palm strike, the fox was instantly slammed to the ground, howling in pain.
After dealing with the fox, Chen Guan turned his attention to the two cultivators.
However, the cultivators had already flown far away, and with Chen Guan's current weapon-controlling technique, it was almost impossible for him to catch up.
"With such tricks, you think you can abduct me?" Chen Guan sneered, kicking the abandoned fox.
"Ouch!"
The fox cried out, its body trembling as it struggled and howled.
"A fox demon in the early Foundation Establishment stage, too bad it's already bound to a master."
The Purple Bamboo Sword fell, giving it a quick death.
Collecting the fox's corpse, Chen Guan jumped onto the Purple Bamboo Sword and flew away.
...
"Boss, what happened?"
"Nothing, Rong Zhu is dead."
"Let's keep flying."
"Good that it's dead. This fox's eyesight was terrible. Are Foundation Establishment level one cultivators this powerful?" "
That palm strike was comparable to the power of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator."
"His body can even turn into water. Besides a divine sense attack, who could hit him?"
The leader, though puzzled, didn't dwell on it.
The aura Chen Guan had just unleashed was indeed that of a Foundation Establishment level one cultivator.
" The combination of Water Transformation and Wave Palm is indeed remarkably effective." Chen Guan recalled the previous battle; his strength was indeed impressive. The Wave Palm technique
, barely at the beginner level, already possessed such power. If he were to master it, wouldn't he be able to kill cultivators of the same level?
"I should have hidden some poison powder in my Wave Palm when I attacked. Even if they weren't killed by the palm strike, they would have been poisoned."
Still somewhat unwilling to have killed the two Tribulation cultivators, Chen Guan was reviewing his battle.
Two days later,
Chen Guan returned to the Qingxuan Sect.
He then went straight to Dan Ding Peak.
Chen Guan bought a cloud boat, spending three thousand spirit stones.
He then found the Qi Refining disciple.
"Ye Gongying."
"Senior Chen." Ye Gongying was delighted; his senior must have asked him for weapon crafting, and weapon crafting meant income.
"I need you to craft two more magic weapons for me."
"Yes, Senior."
Chen Guan casually sat down in a chair in his room, picked up a brush, and began to draw.
A sword that could be separated and combined.
"Make me two of these swords."
"As long as they're spirit weapons, even spirit iron won't be a problem."
Ye Gongying's face was grim. "Senior, these spirit weapons require a rare material called Flowing Gold. I've never used it before, nor have I ever tried to forge such a weapon."
"How much Flowing Gold is needed for one spirit weapon?" Chen Guan asked.
"If you only care about forging a spirit weapon, one sword will require about two catties of Flowing Gold."
"Flowing Gold is worth about five hundred spirit stones per catty."
A bit pricey.
Chen Guan thought for a while and then burned the blueprints in his hand.
"Fine, just forge me five spirit swords, about seven inches long, the sharper the better."
Why bother with such trouble?
Forging ordinary spirit weapons will suffice.
He didn't ask for much; he just wanted one or two Purple Bamboo Swords to carry during battle.
"Yes, Senior Chen, I understand."
"I'll forge them for you using spirit iron?"
"Yes."
Chen Guan nodded.
Since they were all for crafting anyway, he didn't care about the material of the spirit swords.
"I'll come back to see you next month."
Chen Guan said before leaving the other person's house.
Now that he had spirit stones, abundant resources, and plenty of time, it would be a waste not to use them for cultivation.
"The True Blood Scripture improves combat power, while the Azure Profound Scripture improves cultivation level."
"I'll cultivate the Azure Profound Scripture first."
Chen Guan returned to his residence.
"Runchun, I'll stay here tonight."
After giving this instruction, Chen Guan flew away again.
He was heading to his cave dwelling. A short while later, Chen Guan arrived at his cave dwelling. Inside, only the array was in operation; there was nothing
else . He took out his Purple Bamboo Sword and carved out a stone table and a few stone stools. "It seems I don't need these things. Who would come to my cave dwelling?" Chen Guan shook his head and placed a futon inside the cave dwelling. He began cultivating the Four Seasons Sword Technique. When night fell, Chen Guan returned to his residence. "Husband." "Young Master." Chen Guan nodded with a smile. "I'm back. I went to Wanbaozhai." "There were too many people there, and I almost got into danger." Ji Yuyu asked curiously, "How did you manage to shake off the danger, husband?" Of course, I chased them away!
"If you sense danger, just avoid it, right?" Chen Guan smiled.
"By the way, I might be going into seclusion to cultivate recently, so I won't have much time."
Ji Yuyu smiled, "It's alright, husband, do you have time tonight?"
"I should."
Chen Guan nodded; he hadn't started his seclusion yet, so he definitely had time. A night
passed
.
Chen Guan freed himself from the hands and feet on either side.
Last night was wild; Runchun and Ji Yuyu had been with him.
They had just rested.
Chen Guan was in good health, without much depletion.
He didn't need the super recovery.
He stretched and left the gentle embrace.
Time to cultivate.
...
A month later.
Host: Chen Guan
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 1 (5%)
Technique: Qingxuan Scripture (4%)
...
"My cultivation progress is too slow."
Chen Guan dared to say that the True Source Granary had absorbed half of his Yellow Yuan Root medicinal power.
His body had become stronger, but his cultivation progress was still too slow.
"The True Source Granary is like a passive auto-play; as long as I have resources, it can improve my physique."
"What a pity."
"Improving my physique doesn't give me any more attributes."
Chen Guan left his cave and flew to Dan Ding Peak.
"Senior Chen."
"Hmm." Chen Guan nodded. "Can you refine the items?"
"I can." Ye Gongying quickly placed five spirit swords in front of Chen Guan.
Chen Guan nodded in satisfaction, took the five spirit swords, threw five hundred spirit stones to Ye Gongying, and left directly.
"Senior is so generous." Ye Gongying quickly put away the spirit stones.
A spirit sword made of spirit iron could only sell for 20 spirit stones in the market.
But this senior gave 100 spirit stones for each one.
...
Chen Guan spent another day with Runchun and Ji Yuyu, giving Ji Yuyu some more medicinal liquid.
He then went into seclusion again.
"I wonder if my lotus shield is a single unit, or if the pieces are separate."
"Let's try fusing them all together."
Chen Guan took out five lotus shield pieces and a piece of purple bamboo.
"Fuse."
He murmured, but the items in his hands didn't change.
He glanced at his stats.
"Two items?"
"Can't my lotus shield be a single unit?"
Frustrated, Chen Guan considered using a thread to glue the five shields together and then fuse them.
Would that make it one item?
"If the thread also becomes as tough as purple bamboo, how can I cut it?"
Chen Guan wanted five controllable shields, not a connected shield, as a connected shield would greatly reduce its flexibility.
Chen Guan had no choice but to take out one shield and murmur "Fuse" again.
The two items in his hands instantly turned into a ball of light and fused together.
A purple bamboo shield appeared in his hand.
"At least I have a protective shield." Chen Guan dripped blood to bind the shield to his master and stored it in his dantian.
Next month, he planned to fuse a purple bamboo sword.
With one more sword, there's one more hidden move; otherwise, it would be a waste of his cultivation of the One Soul and Three Thoughts.
Cultivation!
In the days that followed,
Chen Guan spent his time in seclusion, either cultivating or teaching, and spending time with his sister.
Four months passed in a row.
Host: Chen Guan
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 1 (10%)
Technique: Azure Profound Scripture (16%)
Chen Guan's cultivation improved quite quickly, especially after his proficiency with the Azure Profound Scripture reached 10%, which significantly increased his cultivation speed.
He also managed to steal a considerable amount of spiritual energy from the Yellow Origin Root from the True Source Granary.
"The Foundation Establishment Chapter of the Azure Profound Scripture, I estimate it will take about three years to complete."
Cultivation for one month resulted in an increase of about 3%.
Three years should be about right.
Through fusion, Chen Guan obtained two Purple Bamboo Swords, failing twice and succeeding twice.
Now he has four Purple Bamboo Swords, which is more than enough. He
emerged from seclusion.
First, he went to the Hundred Medicine Peak Square to teach.
"Senior Lan."
"Today I will teach you how to make talismans, specifically the Fireball Talisman."
"Oh?"
"I understand."
"You're quite generous, actually teaching your disciple a celestial art."
Chen Guan smiled faintly. This kind of skill, learned through natural talent, should be taught to all disciples of the sect for free.
The stronger the sect, the more he could hide within it and continue cultivating.
Chen Guan arrived at the sect square, immediately attracting the attention of many disciples.
"Is it Elder Chen? Is he coming to give a lecture?"
The disciples watched Chen Guan head towards the southwest corner and quickly followed. They
had to secure a good spot.
Even if they didn't get the top ten spirit stone reward, they still needed a good place to listen to the lecture.
Elder Chen was highly proficient in various techniques and could help many disciples understand something.
Especially the Azure Profound Technique.
Every month, Elder Chen would teach the essentials of the Azure Profound Technique.
"Today's lecture will be on the Fireball Talisman."
"It will begin in half an hour."
"The top ten disciples, that's you few." Chen Guan casually tossed each of the ten disciples a spirit stone.
"Thank you, Elder."
The disciples who received the spirit stones were all in the early Qi Refining stage, and they greatly appreciated Chen Guan's generosity.
Some of the female disciples even wanted to flirt with him in public.
Half an hour later.
Hundreds of disciples had gathered in the southwest corner, and some even came from the other two peaks.
"So many people again?"
Chen Guan smiled, surprised to find himself so welcomed by his disciples.
Each disciple in the front row had a recording stone to document their observations.
"Today's lesson is on the Fireball Talisman."
"As everyone knows, immortal arts are difficult to learn, mostly relying on comprehension."
"However, talismans don't require that. Diligent study and practice, followed by reflection, will surely lead to mastery." "
The Fireball Talisman involves hooking the tip and layering ink techniques." "
The Fireball Talisman involves hooking the tip and layering ink techniques."
"These two techniques are the foundation of the Fireball Talisman."
Chen Guan taught earnestly, taking out a wooden table and demonstrating.
An hour passed in this manner.
When the time was up, Chen Guan smiled and said, "Everyone, this month's lessons are over."
"Next month, I will still teach the Azure Profound Technique. If any disciples are interested, don't miss it."
With that, Chen Guan released his cloud boat and departed.
Chen Guan landed at Jia Tian's residence.
He turned around as soon as his foot touched the ground, watching Song Gantang land.
"After watching me teach for half an hour, can you learn an immortal art?" Chen Guan asked with a smile.
"No, I was just looking at my husband's face," Song Gantang said with a smile.
"Did you come back today?" Chen Guan asked.
"Yes."
Chen Guan pushed open the door and said, "What a coincidence, I just finished my seclusion today."
"Where did you go on adventures these past six months?" Chen Guan asked.
"I went to the Luoyun Mountains."
"And you also went to Qingping Marsh."
Chen Guan had never seen Qingping Marsh before. He had heard that although it was a swamp, its unique water source caused it to be covered with green duckweed.
This kind of green duckweed could purify the water, so the swamp water in Qingping Marsh was incredibly clear.
Chen Guan asked with a smile, "Did you bring back any green duckweed seeds?"
"I'd like to see them,"
Song Gantang shook her head. "I'll bring them for you next time."
"No need, I was just saying," Chen Guan shook his head and smiled.
"Husband, could you help me refine the Nine Spirit Grass into pills?" Song Gantang took out a plant with nine leaves. The veins of each leaf were crystal clear, and spiritual light flowed through them.
"You're quite lucky."
"You actually found a Foundation Establishment spiritual item."
Chen Guan examined it for a moment, then asked, "Do you have any of the Nine Spirit Grass seeds preserved?"
"Yes, I was just about to sell them." Song Gantang took out a cloth bag from her waist and handed it to Chen Guan.
Chen Guan smiled and said, "My wife is short of spirit stones, how about selling them to your husband?"
