Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 499: Chapter 272: Treasure of Time, Calamity Strikes

In the blink of an eye, five months flew by.

Inside the world of the Exquisite Tower.

A serene chamber.

Jiang Fan sat cross-legged on the ground, circulating the Primordial Golden Core deep within his Elixir Field and Sea of Qi.

With a thought, the Cloud Dream Tracing Talisman on his body activated.

Centered on his body, boundless white clouds enveloped all directions, covering a full hundred kilometers.

Cloud Dream Tracing Talisman at the Great Success Level!

After five months of arduous cultivation, he too elevated the skill level of the Cloud Dream Tracing Talisman to the Great Success Realm.

With just a thought, the power of this talisman could cover over a hundred kilometers.

Previously, it was merely fifty kilometers, now it has increased by double.

Obviously, the power of this talisman has improved tremendously compared to before.

Boom~~

Thinking about this, Jiang Fan immediately opened the virtual panel on his body.

[Name: Jiang Fan]

[Life Chart: Great Blessings Equal to Heaven, Attribute: Survive Great Perils and Afterwards Have Great Fortune]

[Lifespan: 6000]

[Realm: Third-Layer Golden Core (6%)]

[Profession: Tier Three Low-grade Rune Master (90%)]

Clearly, compared to five months ago, his cultivation has progressed quite a bit.

First and foremost is the skill level of the Soul Restriction Talisman, which has been upgraded to the Mastery Level, no longer at the previous Beginner level.

At the Mastery Level, the Soul Restriction Talisman can instantly condense a soul restriction and integrate into the souls of other cultivators while allowing the setting of five rules.

An Entry Level Soul Restriction Talisman can only set one rule, for instance, prohibiting disclosure of any information about Jiang Fan, but it is limited to just one rule; the opponent can do other things.

A Skilled Level Soul Restriction Talisman can set three rules, and at the Mastery Level, you can set five rules, the ability has increased tremendously compared to before.

After all, with five rules, the constraints increase significantly, allowing for the setup of restrictions like prohibiting self-harm, prohibiting information leaks, prohibiting harm to companions, etc.

If it reaches the Great Success Level, ten rules can be established.

If it reaches the Perfection Level, twenty rules can be set, essentially achieving complete control over the opponent’s soul.

”The Soul Restriction Talisman is indeed immensely powerful in soul confinement.”

Jiang Fan was deeply moved.

He thought perhaps the Demon Sect has similar means, ensuring that every demonic cultivator remains exceedingly loyal, unable to reveal any secrets about the Demon Sect even if captured by Righteous Sects.

Even Soul Search doesn’t have much effect, still hindered by a soul restriction.

Of course, elevating the skill of these two Life Talismans consumed a considerable amount of luck points, currently leaving only 150,000.

However, the main reason for having so few left is that most of the luck points were invested in the Immortal Dew Bottle, this mystical treasure.

”I didn’t expect that after five months of diligent cultivation, my progress in cultivation would only be 6%.”

”It means that a month of arduous cultivation only advances me by 1%.”

”Calculating at this pace, ascending to the Fourth-Layer Golden Core would take at least nine years.”

Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered.

Honestly, this is already a remarkably high cultivation efficiency.

If it were other Golden Core cultivators, breakthrough within a few decades is nearly impossible.

He only needs just over nine years of diligent cultivation to ascend to the Fourth-Layer Golden Core, genuinely considered rapid progression.

Actually, if he were not a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator, and without the dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the Black Dragon Secret Realm, he couldn’t have cultivated so swiftly. However, he still thinks this cultivation speed is too slow.

If there is a shortcut, why not take it?

Speeding up the cultivation of Golden Core Cultivators is actually simple, by consuming Tier Three Elixirs or Spirit Medicines, massively reducing the need for painstaking cultivation.

It was due to this previously that he ascended quickly from Second-Layer Golden Core to Third-Layer Golden Core.

If there weren’t resources aiding him, it wouldn’t have been possible to become a Third-Layer Golden Core cultivator in just one or two years.

”By the way, now that five months have passed.”

”The Immortal Dew Bottle has also condensed five drops of Immortal Dew.”

”With this, the Purple Gold Jade Marrow Tree can bear fruit rapidly.”

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan hesitated not. In a flash, he left the serene chamber and approached the Purple Gold Jade Marrow Tree, which he had long transplanted to a vacant area within the Exquisite Tower.

It is entirely purple-gold, exuding a dense aura of yin and yang qi, its bark adorned with numerous strange runes, towering at a full five meters tall, its leaves resembling white jade, crystal clear and translucent.

Clearly, this is a Tier Three Spirit Plant, containing exceptionally high spirituality.

Normally, it requires at least five hundred years to bear the Purple Gold Jade Marrow Fruit again.

Boom~~~

At this moment, Jiang Fan took out the Immortal Dew Bottle from his possession, inside storing five drops of Immortal Dew.
