Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 219 - 135: Accelerated Cultivation

Half an hour later, Chu Ning emerged from his cultivation room with a hint of surprise on his face.

Then, he went straight to the Iron Stem Orchid area and resumed cultivating the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique.

Instantly, strands of spiritual energy spilled out from the Iron Stem Orchid, mingling with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the air, and seeped into Chu Ning’s body.

Thus, another hour passed.

Chu Ning, who had finished cultivating, stood up with a smile on his face.

[Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique (Yellow Tier Lower Grade), Third Layer (1742/2100)]

[Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, Volume One, Unbreakable Tendons 652/1500]

[Refining Spirit Technique, Second Layer 71/2000]

"1 point of proficiency with just direct cultivation, combined with the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill, it can increase 1 point of proficiency right away.

This is indeed the ninth layer of Qi Refining!"

Chu Ning’s eyes were filled with joy; in terms of spiritual energy absorption speed, he was likely to improve by 50% compared to before!

It’s worth knowing that he possesses the Yin Wood Spirit Body, and his spiritual energy absorption speed was already fast.

The current rate of spiritual energy absorption is indeed terrifying!

"This Spirit Charm air is so astonishing, could it really have enhanced my Spirit Root?"

Chu Ning was both surprised and delighted at the moment.

With his current rate of absorbing spiritual energy, if he adds some elixirs and spirit stones, gaining 4 or 5 points in the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique each day wouldn’t be difficult.

And if he sacrifices some cultivation time on the Refining Spirit Technique and Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, it might even accelerate further.

After all, he has quite a lot of resources on hand now.

Calculating this way, in perhaps two months’ time, he could completely cultivate the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique to full proficiency on the third layer.

This speed is even quicker than his breakthroughs on the previous layers.

Of course, Chu Ning knows this is due to the big proficiency boost the Spirit Charm air provided previously.

After taking a brief rest, Chu Ning re-entered the cultivation room. He has quite a number of resources now, and he wants to see what effects those resources have when utilized.

Chu Ning first took out a Golden Orchid Fruit and ate it.

Then, he began cultivating the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique and Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique.

"Unbreakable Tendons increased by 2 points, but the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique did not rise to 1 point."

Chu Ning quickly assessed the Golden Orchid Fruit’s effect.

Its effect on body refinement remains, but the effect on Qi Refining is lessened now that he has reached the ninth layer of Qi Refining.

Previously, a Golden Orchid Fruit could improve both body refinement by 2 points and Qi Refining by 1 point.

Chu Ning wasn’t too surprised; after all, the Golden Orchid Fruit was primarily used for body refinement.

After briefly cultivating the Refining Spirit Technique, Chu Ning took out the Wood Element Pill he had just received from the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion.

Since the steward from the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion claimed that the Wood Element Pill was twice as effective as the Spiritual Essence Pill, Chu Ning wanted to see if that was true.

After consuming a Wood Element Pill, Chu Ning resumed cultivating the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique.

This time, Chu Ning spent some time fully refining the Wood Element Pill’s medicinal power.

[Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique (Yellow Tier Lower Grade), Third Layer (1745/2100)]

When Chu Ning focused his attention on the proficiency level in his mind again.

He was surprised to find that the proficiency of the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique’s third layer had increased by 3 points!

Of course, this also included the effect of the Golden Orchid Fruit he consumed earlier.

But it also means that after consuming and refining the Wood Element Pill, he could gain more than 2 points of proficiency.

"Gaining 5 points a day is not a problem at all. If I consume two Wood Element Pills a day or use middle-grade spirit stones to cultivate, I could even increase by more than 6 points!"

Chu Ning made a decision in his mind, although consuming two Wood Element Pills a day seemed slightly excessive, and visiting the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion too frequently might not be appropriate.

But he could pair the Spiritual Essence Pills or middle-grade spirit stones to cultivate.

Chu Ning doesn’t have many middle-grade spirit stones. He used some before and gained some, totaling around 80 pieces.

But at this time, he no longer hesitated.

Spirit stones can be earned anytime, and danger can arise at any moment as well.

Understanding this, Chu Ning gained a very clear understanding of his upcoming cultivation plans.

In the following days, Chu Ning continued his routine of planting and cultivating.

Despite being an Inner Sect Disciple, he remained extremely low-key, so no one in the sect soon remembered him.

Especially later on, when some events occurred within the sect.

For instance, hundreds of Qi Refining disciples gradually recovered and returned to their respective halls, causing the matters within the Spirit Realm to become widely discussed.

Additionally, it’s heard that an Inner Sect Disciple who obtained Spirit Charm air three years ago was about to undergo Foundation Establishment, and Sect Leader Xin Wuya personally acted as his protector.

Originally concealed from outsiders, the successful Foundation Establishment disciple eventually boasted about it, resulting in the news spreading unknowingly.

It’s said that Sect Leader Xin Wuya was enraged by this and placed the person under confinement.

Furthermore, because many disciples were lost in the Spirit Realm.

Especially in the later stages, when a batch of disciples simultaneously entered and cultivated the Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques, causing issues in the sect’s spirit fields and market operations.

Due to these issues, the Cyan Creek Sect urgently recruited a new batch of disciples and drew several disciples specializing in Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques from various families into the sect.

This, too, stirred widespread discussions within and outside the sect.

During this period, Chu Ning still took Ling Xiaobai out for strolls.

He even went to Sect Leader Xin Wuya, as advised earlier, and reported his cultivation progress.

He seemed very eager to build a relationship with the Sect Leader.

However, after learning about Chu Ning’s secluded cultivation, Sect Leader Xin Wuya, besides giving some praise, did not pay him much attention.

Especially after Chu Ning refined the Spirit Charm air, although his cultivation did improve slightly, it wasn’t visible enough to be significant.

This made Xin Wuya aware that Chu Ning was only at the seventh layer of Qi Refining, far from Foundation Establishment.

So much so that during Chu Ning’s last visit, the Sect Leader didn’t even let him enter the cave mansion.

This decline in attention naturally delighted Chu Ning.

During this time, Chu Ning also visited the Library Pavilion.

Upon discovering the sect’s decree, which only permitted the choice of one spell to avoid scattered focus in cultivation, Chu Ning naturally did not hastily use this opportunity.

However, in terms of talisman crafting techniques, he found fewer restrictions.

And Chu Ning decisively took a Talisman Scripture, the Profound Talisman Treasure Scroll, that Liao Yunming mentioned before.

This scripture is said to be one of the most comprehensive talisman scriptures within the Cyan Creek Sect, featuring numerous Basic Upper Grade Talismans and many Intermediate Talisman crafting methods.

Besides that, Chu Ning also found various geographical classics related to the Cultivation Realm from the Library Pavilion and read them.

All of which were naturally preparations for his upcoming escape.

In a blink, another fifty days had passed.

On this day, Chu Ning set off the restriction for secluded cultivation outside his cave mansion once again.
