Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 128: Chapter 97: Advancement to Second-Layer Qi Cultivation_2

”No wonder it’s a Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pill.”

”Just one such elixir can save me a month of hard cultivation.”

Jiang Fan’s eyes lit up instantly, feeling very excited.

He realized the importance of elixirs for cultivators.

If one’s talent is insufficient, then elixirs can rapidly increase the efficiency of a cultivator’s practice.

Cultivators with Low-grade Spirit Root talent, due to the low efficiency of absorbing Spiritual Qi, find that elixirs contain vast medicinal power that can be directly infused into them.

This way, the cultivators no longer need to painstakingly absorb Spiritual Qi.

However, elixirs are expensive and not something ordinary cultivators can afford.

Rumble~~

At this moment, Jiang Fan seemed to enter a state of meditation, and his entire body turned into a Mixed Cave, with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi being devoured into his body like a tide.

This also caused the Primordial Spiritual Power within him to rise wildly.

Without a doubt, this is the Earth Spirit Root talent.

A single day’s hard cultivation could equivalent to how many days a Low-grade Spirit Root cultivator would train.

Moreover, during the Qi Cultivation Stage, there were essentially no bottlenecks.

Thud!

It’s unclear how much time passed, but Jiang Fan sensed that the Primordial Spiritual Power within his body had filled one of his meridians, seemingly reaching its limit.

The next second, this Primordial Spiritual Power easily broke through the bottleneck and penetrated the second meridian.

Second-Layer Qi Cultivation.

Without a doubt, after consuming three Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pills, his Primordial Spiritual Power had significantly increased, instantly helping him progress from First-Layer to Second-Layer Qi Cultivation.

”As expected, I’ve advanced.”

Jiang Fan sensed the Primordial Spiritual Power within his Dantian and Sea of Qi, noting it had increased by half compared to before, with the power beginning to circulate through two meridians.

Once the power fills the second meridian, it can penetrate the third meridian, advancing to Third-Layer Qi Cultivation.

Generally, advancing from First to Second to Third-Layer Qi Cultivation has little to no bottleneck.

As long as there is enough spiritual power within, advancement will naturally occur.

Of course, this applies to cultivators with Earth Spirit Root talent.

For those with Low-grade Spirit Roots, the low efficiency in absorbing Spiritual Qi means that accumulating internal power requires a lot of time.

It could take ten or even decades without much progress.

And if one indulges in brothels, the speed of cultivation progress will be even slower.

”The reason for ascending quickly to Second-Layer Qi Cultivation.”

”In addition to the aid of three Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pills, the most significant factor is my identity as an Innate Martial Artist, entering the path through martial arts.”

Jiang Fan touched his chin.

It’s not without benefits for ordinary martial artists to enter the path through martial arts and nurture a Spirit Root, stepping into the Innate realm.

At the very least, they have a robust body and blood.

In this way, Innate Martial Artists transitioning to cultivation techniques can quickly convert their Primordial Qi Force into spiritual power, accelerating their Qi Cultivation Stage training efficiency.

This can rapidly transform an Innate Martial Artist into a Third-Layer Qi Cultivation cultivator.

But becoming a cultivator above Fourth-Layer Qi Cultivation is not so simple.

For Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators, the gap between Third and Fourth-Layer is a substantial bottleneck.

With insufficient talent, being stuck for ten or twenty years is common.

Thud!

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan willed it and opened the virtual panel on himself.

”Since I’ve advanced to Second-Layer Qi Cultivation, I can now consider engraving talismans.”

Jiang Fan’s eyes glittered.

He always had a fear of inadequacy in martial prowess, especially in such a strange environment; without sufficient martial power, he never felt truly safe.

Whatever happens, he couldn’t let himself fall into a powerless situation.

Bang~

In an instant, numerous pieces of information about lower-grade talismans surfaced in the depths of his consciousness.

Given his current cultivation, he could only engrave the power of Lower-grade Talismans.

Cleaning Talisman, Silence Talisman, Tracking Talisman, Conceal Breath Talisman, Disguise Talisman, Light Body Talisman, Defense Talisman, and other lower-grade talisman information immediately surfaced in his mind.

This is the inheritance from the Primordial Talisman Sect.

If it were an ordinary sect, acquiring so many lower-grade talisman refining techniques would be impossible.

Even if one had them, it would require a great deal of Contribution Points to obtain them.

They wouldn’t be as readily accessible as Jiang Fan could view them now.

”Based on the current situation, I can engrave two types of Lower-grade Talismans.”

”Being in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range requires two types of talismans.”

”One is an attack type talisman to kill enemies.”

”The other is a speed type talisman, for escape if the situation turns dire.”

”With this in mind, I can only choose the Fireball Talisman and Light Body Talisman.”

Jiang Fan touched his chin and immediately made his choice.

The choice of the Fireball Talisman was due to its strong destructive power.

The power of flames can kill demon beasts and counter demonic forces.

It can even control the power of the flames, obliterating bodies and concealing traces.

The Fireball Talisman could also be used for cooking.

In short, the power of the Fireball Talisman is quite perfect.

As for the Light Body Talisman, it speeds up his movement, facilitating escape.

Of course, it could also be used for dispatching enemies.

The advantages of increased speed are numerous.

”Let’s begin.”

Having made his choices, Jiang Fan wasted no time, instantly using his Luck Points to start engraving these two talismans on his Primordial Talisman.

Bang~~

Suddenly, Jiang Fan sensed a mysterious energy from the depths of his consciousness, which instantly placed his soul in a Unity of Heaven and Man state, significantly enhancing his comprehension.

At that moment, he thoroughly understood the mysteries of the Fireball Talisman and Light Body Talisman.

Strands of Primordial Spiritual Power began to move within the depths of his Dantian and Sea of Qi, intertwining on the Primordial Talisman, engraving the patterns of the Fireball and Light Body Talismans.

To be honest, he finally understood why this step was so challenging.

Manipulating the spiritual power of the Dantian and Sea of Qi to engrave talisman patterns on the Primordial Talisman was like carving on a grain of rice.

Success required extremely delicate technique, a calm mindset, and a considerable amount of time.

Even a slight distraction could lead to failure.

Officially, the Primordial Talisman Sect’s Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators could embed nine talismans on their Life Talismans, but in reality, almost no one achieved this.

The vast majority of Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators could embed two or three talismans at most.

This was their limit.

Even engraving one talisman required a significant time investment.

Spending time here could slow down their Foundation Establishment progress.

Thus, most prefer to wait until they advance to Foundation Establishment Cultivators to have a long lifespan and later integrate more talismans, which is the best choice for Primordial Talisman Sect’s disciples.

However, under the effect of Luck Points, Jiang Fan instantly understood this, allowing him to engrave talismans without errors, sparing time.

Thud!

After just one night, Jiang Fan sensed the surface of the Primordial Ball deep in his Primordial Talisman; the patterns of the Fireball and Light Body Talismans appeared.

The two talismans are now permanently engraved there.

”Light Body Talisman.”

Activating the Light Body Talisman deep within him, Jiang Fan’s thoughts were instantly implemented.

The talisman lit up, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi flooded, and then a force of wind enveloped him, making his body unbelievably light.

It felt like his body had gained a pair of wind wings.

Whoosh!

In an instant, with a thought, the wind wings gently fluttered, and his entire body rocketed out of the cave like a jet plane.

Leaving only a residual shadow in midair.

Compared to before, he was several times faster.
