I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Chapter 63: Chapter 59: Trial Imprint and an Unexpected Surprise

”Indeed, farming is the most comfortable way!”

Looking at the Little Giant God Seal that automatically collided into the Dantian, round and smooth, Gu Yuan couldn’t help but sigh.

If it were normal cultivation, one would have to comprehend Dao Patterns, attempt repeatedly, and expend a lot of spiritual materials to refine a Dharma Seal.

It requires a lot of effort.

But with the ”Seed Body Seal,” you achieve three things at once by merely sitting cross-legged, and the Dharma Seal naturally enters the body, truly profound.

”Buzz buzz!”

Once the Dharma Seal was formed, it naturally had to be tested.

With a thought, Gu Yuan activated the Little Giant God Seal with his mana.

”Whoosh!”

In an instant, Gu Yuan’s body swelled like a balloon, and within a blink of an eye, he transformed into an extremely burly giant over a zhang tall.

Muscles coiled like dragons, eyes blazing, filled with an oppressive aura.

”Pop!”

With a casual wave of his hand, a loud bang resounded in the air, as if the massive qi power tore through the air.

”Is this the amplification power of the Little Giant God Seal? The weak become strong, the strong become unrivaled?”

Feeling the endless qi power within him, Gu Yuan couldn’t help but clench his fist.

The Little Giant God Seal itself doesn’t have the ability to engage in magical combat, but it can amplify all of Gu Yuan’s abilities, including the physical body.

If previously Gu Yuan was a ”skinny dog,” with a punch force of several hundred pounds, only oppressing ordinary mortals, now his strength directly reached several thousand pounds, capable of tearing tigers and leopards, breaking monuments and stones.

However, trying to use this qi power against cultivators or demon beasts is still far from sufficient.

In this world, cultivation is unique, and a cultivator’s mana cannot directly communicate with Heaven-Earth Spiritual Power, but mana itself contains power, capable of countless transformations.

Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivators have mana with a power of over ten thousand pounds, allowing them to part water and move mountains, carry massive rocks, extremely formidable.

It is precisely because mana inherently possesses great power that Power Dao cultivation is even more difficult.

The qi power must significantly surpass mana to have combat capability.

To counter a Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivator, the qi power must be at least one hundred thousand pounds, and one must have a unique Power Technique, otherwise, it’s utterly impossible to contend with a magic cultivator of the same realm.

However, the Power Seal is also a part of magic cultivation. Overall, the two belong to the same family, and there is no separate path of Power Dao; they are all integrated, blending mana together.

”A qi power of several thousand pounds is of no great use, but what if it’s tens of thousands of pounds?”

Gu Yuan suddenly smiled slightly, and then the Cold Rhinoceros Dragon Elephant Star Spirit abruptly awakened, merging into his chest.

”Crash!”

In an instant, the Star Spirit and the Little Giant God Seal simultaneously shone, Gu Yuan’s body swelled again, transforming into a height of three zhang in an instant, muscles tensed like cast iron, exceedingly burly.

Even his hair exuded a faint luster, with a heavy texture.

”Boom!”

With a punch, Gu Yuan seemingly caused a sonic boom, a terrifying wave of air surged, sweeping through the Cave Mansion, and if not for the suppression of the Grand Array, the cliff walls would have been pounded into a large hole.

With the simultaneous amplification of the Star Spirit and the Little Giant God Seal, Gu Yuan’s qi power surged to over fifteen hundred thousand pounds, a cold and chilling breath in his abdomen, capable of instantly freezing middle-grade Dharma Artifacts.

”With just qi power alone, I can surpass the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, and even face a Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivator with a chance to fight!”

The three zhang tall body carried a strong sense of oppression, even a soft whisper echoed like thunder in the Cave Mansion.

”Not only that, my Dharma Seals and Spiritual Sense have also been enhanced.”

With a thought, the Dharma Seals in the Dantian flew out, spinning around him.

Each Dharma Seal radiated a peculiar luster, like golden light spiraling, carrying a burst of explosive energy.

Even the previously lowest ”Profound Turtle Seal” became deeper, the image of the Profound Turtle much clearer, as if a great turtle truly floated, blocking everything.

”Roar!”

In Gu Yuan’s Sea of Consciousness, the Flood Dragon Spirit seemed to have taken a Great Nourishing Pill, its body expanded savagely, filled with a vicious aura, as if wanting to devour.

An unprecedented sense of power filled Gu Yuan’s body and limbs, making him eager to find someone for magical combat, to test his fierce prowess.

”Whoosh!”

But he took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing it.

Because he discovered something even more exciting.

”Crash!”

Without any hesitation, Gu Yuan sat cross-legged and began to inhale and exhale.

The Spiritual Qi in the air quickly poured into Gu Yuan’s body at an alarming speed, enhancing his mana, replenishing his consumption.

After a long time, Gu Yuan opened his eyes, filled with joy.

But he seemed a little unconvinced and inhaled and exhaled again, and after several times, he finally felt at ease.

”As expected!”

”The Little Giant God Seal not only amplifies my physical strength... but my talent and potential too?”

”During the activation of the Dharma Seal, my talent and aptitude are also amplified?”

”Did the Sunset Glow Sect discover the Power Seal inheritance in the Thundering Mountain Range, and someone broke through to Foundation Establishment because of this reason?”

Gu Yuan recalled the information received from the South Mountain Pavilion and speculated in his heart.

The reason why Body Seals are profound lies in their ability to change one’s aptitude, reducing bottlenecks in breakthroughs.

But now it seems that power-enhancing Seals, or uniquely amplifying bodily Dharma Seals like the Little Giant God Seal, have similarities.

”In this way, this is indeed an unexpected surprise!”

The corners of Gu Yuan’s mouth lifted into a smile.

Then he stood in place, not moving, carefully feeling the flow of mana within his body.

After the time for an incense stick to burn, the Little Giant God Seal’s luster dimmed, and Gu Yuan’s mana was completely exhausted.

”It can last at most the time for an incense stick to burn... If I want to activate it a second time, I must wait at least two hours.”

Gu Yuan calculated a bit, understanding his limits in his heart.

This time isn’t long, but if activated during magical combat or a breakthrough, it is already sufficient.

Then his form returned to its original state. He sat cross-legged, inhaled and exhaled for a long time, and once his mana recovered, he opened his eyes again.

”Since I’ve broken through the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, I can take a break from arduous cultivation. It’s time to think of ways to earn more Spirit Stones and cultivate the ’Heaven-Revealing Spirit Eye.’”

This year, Gu Yuan cultivated diligently, hardly ever leaving the Cave Mansion, focusing solely on cultivation.

Doing so is naturally stable, but he is not a disciple of a Noble Family, without a family as a backing, without venturing out, without taking risks, it means no income in Spirit Stones.

And after purchasing the Little Giant Divine Wood, Gu Yuan’s Spirit Stones are nearly exhausted.

Though later he killed the Water Ape and the Beast Taming Youth, the gains were not substantial.

Only a little over a hundred Spirit Stones and a few artifacts, among which Gu Yuan does not intend to sell the three artifacts of the Beast Taming Youth.

He has the Eight Wind Treasure Ring in hand, restraining all Qi Refining Stage artifacts, meaning only he can use artifacts to attack others, others cannot use artifacts to attack him.

Therefore, every artifact for Gu Yuan is a trump card.

The cultivation realm is not stable, and the more trump cards the better, Gu Yuan will not sell handy artifacts.

Only the Water Ape’s steel fork, although a top-grade Dharma Artifact, it was crafted for the Demon Race, not handy to Gu Yuan. He already listed it for sale in the Celestial Star Dark Market and received three hundred and fifty Spirit Stones.

After all, it is a Demon Race artifact, the price was suppressed, or it would be at least four hundred Spirit Stones.

In this way, Gu Yuan has nearly five hundred Spirit Stones in hand.

This is already a considerable fortune.

But the cost of the Heaven-Revealing Spirit Eye is even more than Gu Yuan imagined.

The Heaven-Revealing Spirit Eye requires three kinds of Spirit Flowers, ground into a liquid, supplemented with Spirit Water, to wash the eyes, continuing for seven by seven forty-nine days.

During these forty-nine days, the eyes must be washed daily, meaning three Spirit Flowers of each kind are needed daily, plus a portion of Spirit Water, making one hundred forty-seven Spirit Flowers and forty-nine portions of Spirit Water for forty-nine days.

Each Spirit Flower is worth at least four Spirit Stones, even discounting the eighteen flowers Gu Yuan obtained from the Water Ape, he still needs one hundred twenty-nine flowers, totaling five hundred sixteen Spirit Stones.

Adding the Spirit Water, at least seven hundred Spirit Stones are needed.

Moreover, even if Gu Yuan has the Spirit Stones, acquiring so many Spirit Flowers takes time; it’s not something done overnight.

Once the Spiritual Eye cultivation begins, it cannot be interrupted, so Gu Yuan can only start cultivation after collecting all the Spirit Flowers in advance.

So far, he has collected one hundred Spirit Flowers and enough Spirit Water, and has clues for the remaining Spirit Flowers, but... he has no money to pay.
