Like this, after a whole day of cultivation, Lin Yi finally managed to merge all the spiritual energy in his Dantian with the thunder and lightning. In front of his eyes, a pop-up message appeared, “[Five Thunder Curse] experience +1.”
The Five Thunder Curse is just a spell, it’s much easier compared to the
Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind and the introduction of the Divine Shadow Method. He opened the title panel and saw that the upgrading experience of the Five Thunder Curse was 100. He was relieved.
Lin Yi tried to circulate the Five Thunder Magic Technique and released it towards a rock in front of him. A force of spiritual power imbued with the might of thunder and lightning was stimulated in his hand, forming a thunderbolt that struck the rock straight from mid-air.
The entry-level Five Thunder Curse could only leave a black mark on the rock. To shatter the rock, it might need to reach a higher level, perhaps even Grandmaster level.
After gaining entry, he switched to a title that would accelerate his spell technique progress, promptly began practising the Five Thunder Curse. Instead of levelling up through releasing it like other elemental spells.
The Five Thunder Curse required constant flow of thunder into the body for quicker levelling up, it’s not just about having a spiritual power with thunder properties.
More importantly, it allows the body to develop an affinity with thunder and lightning, enabling swifter release during casting.
Both refining thunder in his body and wind element in his body were self-torture. However, a thought rose up inside him that maybe in the future, he could combine wind and thunder, to unleash even greater power.
After cultivating for over ten days, Lin Yi successfully levelled up the Five Thunder Curse to the proficient level, with a significant increase in the might of the lightning.
When he came out of the stone pit, he planned his future cultivation schedule.
The cultivation techniques and spells he currently needed to practice were Cultivation Creation Skill, Body Refining Spell, Divine Shadow Escape Great Method and the Five Thunder Curse spell.
However, he would need to add learning Alchemy into his schedule, practicing it slowly to earn the title related to Alchemy.
According to the talisman crafting title, as long as he successfully refined one pill, he should be able to earn a title, simultaneously displaying Alchemy skills on the title panel.
For others, repeated failures in Alchemy may be a form of torture. But for him, with the effect of the [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes] title, every failure in Alchemy is equivalent to an enlightenment, allowing him to continuously improve.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment and determined his cultivation order.
Cultivation level was most important, so he must cultivate the Creation
Method every day, with the ultimate goal of establishing the foundation.
Then comes the Five Thunder Curse, as it is the most powerful spell in the late stage of Qi refining, with normal experience value and quick leveling, it can quickly be transformed into real strength.
As for the Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind and the Divine Shadow Method, they both require 1000 experience points to level up, he would set these aside to practice a little each day.
Lin Yi looked back at the stone pit and couldn’t help but shake his head and smile. He had initially thought about keeping fishes in the pit. However, with the continuous downpour of thunder and lightning, there was constant drift of lightning within the rainwater.
Thus, keeping fish was impossible now, and the pit could only serve as his cultivation place.
He drove his flying boat toward the Pill Hall, met with Brother Wu Tian Zhang, and obtained the seeds of Yuan Ling Grass from the ten-acre medicinal field.
As Yuan Ling Grass absorbs a lot of nutrients, he couldn’t plant much in one acre.
Despite the difficulties, compared to planting Gathering Qi Pills, the amount of spirit stones he could yield was greater. Previously, ten acres of Gathering Qi Pills, factoring in quality and yield bonuses, he could obtain more than 2700 spirit stones.
However, these ten acres of Yuan Ling Grass could yield over 8000 spirit stones, nearly three times more.
Of course, the difficulty of tending is great, and moreover, it is only the least important ingredient in the Foundation Building Pill, serving to neutralise its medicinal properties.
Upon returning to Jin Qiao Peak, Lin Yi held the seeds, hesitating as Yuan Ling Grass needs meticulous care, no more than three days without it, or else the quality would be affected.
He is considering whether he should continue to take two more tasks in hope of obtaining the expected title, or plant these right now and make plans for the future. After all, to complete the relatively safe tasks outside Liu Yun Sect, it would take at least three days.
However, he soon made a decision, directly planting the seeds of Yuan Ling Grass, focusing on cultivation by farming as a primary means. There’s no need to rush about the title, he could always earn it later.
Lin Yi strictly followed the planting method of the Spirit Grass, burying each seed in the medicine field, then started to release the Spring Rain Technique for watering.
Under the planting mode of the Rain Transformation Technique, thunder and lightning only roam within the clouds. However, when he was Cultivating Five Thunder Spells, he was controlling the thunder and lightning inside, making it a bit more extreme.
This control only became possible after the Spring Rain Technique was upgraded to the Grandmaster level. Previously, he could only control the rain, but after becoming a Grandmaster, he gained the ability to control the internal thunder and lighting.
However, the power of this thunder and lightning is not great, and after releasing the Wind and Rain technique, the formation of thunder and lightning is too slow and can’t be used as an attacking spell. Who would watch the clouds gather above their heads and wait to be struck by lightning?
In the following time, Lin Yi cultivated while taking care of the Spirit Grass. Half a month later, the Spirit Grass began to grow robustly.
According to the patterns in the Spiritual Grass Manual, the Spirit Grass would bloom faint white flowers which are very pretty when it’s fully grown.
Meanwhile, the exploration and trials in the Dan God Secret Realm also ended. Each time the Secret Realm opened, it lasted about a month. Regardless of where you were in the Secret Realm, you would be forcibly expelled when the time was up.
Among the Liu Yun Sect, the four disciples of the Golden Sword Peak gained the most. They obtained some precious spiritual grass and even materials used for refining the Infant Breaking Pill. Even though they weren’t the most important materials, they were very valuable and hard to acquire.
The energy needed for a Golden Core to break through to the Nascent Soul realm is unimaginable, and all the materials basically consist of spiritual grass and medicines that have aged hundreds or even thousands of years.
However, judging by Li Yuan Qing’s somewhat disappointed expression, the materials he acquired probably did not include spiritual grass or medicine that could replenish the foundation.
The foundation is crucial to a cultivator, especially during the Foundation Establishment Stage the key moment of cultivation. If the foundation is damaged, it is extremely difficult to replenish. The Immortal Pill, which can repair and restore the foundation of cultivation, is needed.
And there are some rare materials in the Immortal Pill that can’t be found in the Heng Yuan World, but do exist in the Dan God Secret Realm.
This precious spiritual grass and medicine usually grow in the depths of the Secret Realm, making them hard to obtain.
Zhang Dao Xuan is famous for his Alchemy Dao and Formation. In the Secret Realm, he has laid several formations. To get to the depths, you must pass through several checkpoints.
After all people were forcibly expelled from the Secret Realm, it would close in two or three days. All the Golden Core Real Persons of Liu Yun Sect and the other Golden Core Real Persons of other sects didn’t return but stayed there.
The signs after the Dan God Secret Realm closes indicate what may happen in the next opening. If there are no signs and it just closes, it means that the still be the medicine field in the next opening. The location is random, and the next opening would be in ten to twenty years.
If a seven-colored glow flashes at the moment it closes, it shows that the next opening will have both the medicine field and the Alchemy Room, and the time is still ten to twenty years, at a random location.
Legend has it that if a wisp of glow constantly appears at the original location after closing the Dan God Secret Realm, it means the entire Secret Realm will open at the original location next time, six years later.
Three days later, Lin Yi drove the Flying Boat and arrived at the sky above the Inner Sect, watching the distant peaks. At this moment, many disciples shared the same thought as him.
The Secret Realm that emitted rosy light was slowly closing. A streak of rosy light remarkably remained on the peak, constantly appearing just like after the Secret Realm had first descended.
At this moment, he heard the Inner Sect erupt into a cheer. The preservation of rosy light indicated that the entirety of the Dan God Secret Realm, including the medicine field, Alchemy Room, and the Cave Mansion, would open at the original location next time.
Lin Yi also revealed a trace of shock on his face. It was truly unbelievable. In a thousand years, the Cave Mansion of the Dan God Secret Realm had only opened one or two times. He never thought that he would now witness the third time.
He had previously thought that he might not catch up with the Dan God Secret Realm, because within the ten to twenty years of waiting time, he expected to have already successfully established the foundation. Even with the hidden realm of the Path of Survivor, he probably wouldn’t be able to hide at the Qi Refinement Realm anymore.
Now it was to open again six years later. He should have already established his foundation by then. As for whether the hidden effect of the Path of Survivor could deceive the detection means of the Secret Realm, that was uncertain..
