Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

Jia Yu was genuinely happy for his peers, but there was also a faint twinge of bitterness in his heart.

With an additional five pills each year, it was conservatively estimated to be equivalent to seven thousand strands of Qi Eating.

Whether it was the core of the Divine Mansion or the Primordial Life Fire, both would receive significant nourishment and growth, thereby facilitating a rapid improvement in cultivation.

Once a cultivator reaches the Chao Origin Stage, their aptitude should generally meet Earth Grade standards, speeding up the refinement of spiritual energy.

For truly gifted cultivators, the speed of cultivation improvement wouldn’t be much slower than during the Foundation Establishment Stage.

In his own time, there was no such treatment, and as for his other senior and junior brothers, only two Senior Brother Lin and Li Haoran received such benefits.

The three of them could receive an additional nine pills each year because the ancestor hoped they could swiftly advance their cultivation and break through to the Golden Core Stage.

The priority of the Golden Core Seed was also categorized, and currently, Junior Brother Ji was not the top priority in the ancestor’s mind.

Daoist Master Zhengyang then said:

“Red Flame Peak has many Fire Element Spirit Fruits. If Ji An can continue at this pace and break through to the Third Transition Realm of the Chao Origin Stage, his treatment could be improved once more.”

For a core disciple with the capability to rapidly improve cultivation, the sect would certainly strive to nurture them, and this has been the strategy of the Golden Spirit Sect since migrating from Central Continent.

The results have been significant from what we can see.

The sect evolved from an intermediate Chao Origin power to become the second largest Golden Core power in Western Continent.

Jia Yu composed himself and smiled:

“The ancestor’s arrangements are very appropriate.

When Junior Brother Ji was still at the Foundation Establishment Stage, we were already quite familiar.

Whether it is in cultivation improvement or cultivating high-tier spirit plants, he has never let anyone down.”

He paused for a moment, then added:

“Not only has he never let anyone down, but he often exceeds our expectations.”

At this moment, he suddenly recalled something Ji An once jokingly said, ’Let Senior Brother call me ancestor.’

He grinned, thinking this jest might really come true!

“Is that so?”

Daoist Master Zhengyang raised an eyebrow with interest, showing a bright smile:

“Then let us look forward to his performance.”

As they were speaking, a voice came from outside the hall:

“Disciple Li Haoran requests to see the ancestor.”

The voice was clear and cold, carrying a sharpness like wind sweeping across a snowy mountain peak.

Jia Yu felt as though a flash of sword and shadow passed before his eyes, startled in his heart:

“It seems this kid’s Sword Intent has changed again!”

In his heart rose a sense of awe—the Sword Intent had evolved, and the sword cultivator’s strength might have increased by severalfold!

In this light, though the other party was at the Second Transformation Realm of the Chao Origin Stage, he was already no match.

“Enter.”

The Dharma Prohibition opened, and Li Haoran strode in with dragon-like steps, cupping his hands:

“Greetings, ancestor. Greetings, Senior Brother Jia.”

Daoist Master Zhengyang nodded warmly, saying:

“No need for formalities! Haoran, do you have any questions about your cultivation?”

The more he looked at this disciple, the more satisfied he felt, believing this individual would one day become the strongest cultivator in Western Continent.

Li Haoran’s eyes were bright and clear, and he said:

“I have no questions at present. Today, I’ve come to bid farewell to the ancestor.

It’s been two years since I broke through to the Second Transformation Realm of the Chao Origin Stage, and the few water veins in the sect are no longer sufficient to meet my Qi Eating needs.”

To rapidly enhance cultivation and strengthen the Divine Mansion, he could only venture outside the sect to explore.

“Have you informed Qiubai?”

“I have already reported to my master, and he has agreed.”

Daoist Master Zhengyang sighed softly, asking:

“Where do you plan to go, and about how many years before you return to the sect?”

If possible, he hoped this disciple could achieve a breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage before venturing out, as it would be safer.

However, considering the real situation of the sect—within the Three Sects of Western Continent, Luofeng Valley had relatively better conditions, while the water veins in the other two sects were not as abundant.

“I plan to go to the Far North of the Western Continent. In the vast snowy plains, I could also comprehend a different Sword Intent.

Taking into account travel delays, I estimate the journey to last at least ten years, at most fifteen.”

“Have you consulted the materials about the Far North in the sect’s Inheritance Hall?”

“I have already reviewed them.”

Daoist Master Zhengyang pondered for a moment before speaking:

“I agree to your travels but you need to wait for a while longer.”

He turned his head and said:

“Jia Yu, along with Han Yan, go immediately to Luofeng Valley. At any cost, purchase a hundred Heavenly Water Soul Cleansing Pills.

You can use any spirit medicines and spiritual artifacts from the Secret Vault.”

As an Alchemist, Han Yan knew best which resources could persuade the cultivators of Luofeng Valley.

“I will take care of it right away.”

“Once the tasks are done and you return to the sect, come and see me immediately.”

“Understood,” Jia Yu agreed, bowing before he walked quickly out of the hall.

He rode on the fiery clouds, leaving a long trail of flames in the sky.

As the flame light gradually faded, Daoist Master Zhengyang retracted his gaze, advising:

“There are Golden Core Stage demon cultivators lurking around, so when you leave, do not traverse directly across Western Continent; go east, make a detour… Once the pills are procured, I will inform you.”

When the disciple departs, he will be granted two additional Vice Treasures for protection.

Li Haoran listened attentively, not expecting the ancestor to support him with so many pills, feeling the weight of the elder’s expectations.

Other cultivators could only exchange for a few Heavenly Water Soul Cleansing Pills at most.

After the ancestor had finished speaking, he respectfully replied:

“Thank you, ancestor, for the guidance. Disciple has one more question to ask.

By the time I return to the sect years later, I will have likely established a Wood Element Divine Mansion. Will the sect be able to provide a sufficient supply of Wood Element Qi?”

The resources within the sect can surely support several cultivators consuming Wood-eating Qi simultaneously.

If multiple cultivators happen to develop the Liver Wood Mansion, he wouldn’t want to squeeze others out of their place.
