Chapter 86: "Celestial Path Cultivation Pills"
Chapter 86: "Celestial Path Cultivation Pills"
Zhao Yishi then spat out the maidens, who were still in his mouth, along with the spring water into his palm and squatted down, gently placing them on the rocks below the mountain stream.
Zhao Yishi squatted, looking down at the maidens with their expressions of disbelief and awe, and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you as well."
"Last time, in the third level of the Celestial Path Secret Realm, there was a stupid senior who said he had drunk urine, and I was able to follow up."
"It's just that this habit isn't good. In the future, clamp tight."
"I have something to do, so I'll leave first. I'll receive you again next time."
After saying this, Zhao Yishi's massive body rose step by step like a lotus in the air and soon disappeared into the clouds.
Only the maidens, soaked in thin silk, remained, standing in place, staring at the direction where Zhao Yishi had disappeared, their eyes filled with bewilderment and terror.
The sun rose.
Chen Qiu, who had been meditating on the bed all night, felt the sunlight coming through the window and slowly opened his eyes.
The changes brought about by this night's cultivation were quite significant.
It allowed him to consecutively break through two realms in just one day, and he had consolidated his cultivation to some extent.
He examined his internal state.
His Dao foundation appeared much brighter and more solid than before.
At least, the instability of his realm and the chaotic spirit energy were no longer evident. He looked at the flickering spirit energy on his fingertips, like dancing flames, and then at the teacup on the redwood table. With a light tap of his fingertip, a spirit thread instantly coiled around the teacup, retracting back into his body along with the thread. The teacup, filled with tea the night before, returned to his hand without spilling a drop.
Chen Qiu lifted the teacup and took a small sip, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes. Although the technique of transforming spirit energy into threads was relatively simple, it was still a significant improvement for him, giving him a sense of accomplishment.
It was a bit like the feeling of learning to ride a bicycle for the first time when he was young.
At this time, his cultivation had reached the third tier of Foundation Establishment, which was no small feat even in the capital city, let alone other cities. Foundation Establishment cultivators were now the backbone of the Great Xia Nation.
After that, he extended his divine sense into the miniature world to take stock of his gains.
Before they parted ways the night before, Fat Dragon had given him all the storage bags he was carrying.
Inside the miniature world—
There were over a thousand storage bags. They weren't valuable and wouldn't fetch a good price, so he decided to keep them in the miniature world for potential future use.
From the storage bags, he found numerous low-rank talismans, pills, spirit treasures, spirit stones, broken silver, and other items, which added up to an estimated value of over two thousand spirit stones.
There were also over three hundred storage rings with unbroken seals.
These storage rings belonged to the demon race cultivators and Ten Thousand Toxins Sect disciples, and their seals had not yet been broken. The items stored within these rings were often of higher value. Undoubtedly, the contents of these storage rings would be more valuable than what was in the storage bags.
Additionally, there were some semi-scrapped spirit treasures and other items. According to the scholar, these could be sold as materials for a decent price, although the exact amount was unknown, it wouldn't be much.
But the real treasure was—
The three close-fitting storage rings left behind by the owner of Ask Heaven Market!
And the two storage rings pulled off by the Poison Thunder Old Ghost!
Both of them were Core Formation cultivators!
Their storage rings must contain many precious items.
There were also two storage rings from Ten Thousand Demons, and Chen Qiu wondered if they contained the escape technique that even Core Formation cultivators couldn't catch up with. The thought of this made him envious.
After a quick inventory of his gains, Chen Qiu got up and left the guest room.
As usual, Fat Dragon was already standing outside the guest room with a beaming smile, waiting for him.
This time, he was accompanied by a scholar and the scholar's younger brother.
"Let's get some breakfast."
Chen Qiu patted Fat Dragon's shoulder with a sigh, then turned and walked downstairs along the corridor. It was indeed challenging to deal with Fat Dragon's high-spirited mood every morning, as he would always be waiting outside the guest room with a wide grin.
The group found a shop selling mutton soup by the roadside.
They dipped their pancakes, still steaming from the pan, into the soup and enjoyed their meal.
It was already winter, but the snow had not yet arrived.
Many ordinary people on the street were wearing thick coats, their faces filled with joy, greeting everyone they met.
"Today seems to be the Winter Solstice," someone remarked.
Fat Dragon glanced at the passersby and said thoughtfully, "In that case, we should have some dumplings later. We should have some sense of festival celebration."
"Huh?"
The scholar, who was drinking the soup, suddenly had a flash of surprise in his eyes. "My ranking on the Fame Ranking Chart has risen to 898th place! I knew it, the Heavenly Blessing last night was so abundant."
"Qiu, you're also on the rankings!"
Chen Qiu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the Fame Ranking Chart. He found his name at the 982nd place and searched his consciousness within the storage ring. He found the Heavenly Blessing from the previous night.
The rankings on the Fame Ranking Chart changed daily, and the Heavenly Blessing would automatically appear in the storage ring after midnight. He hadn't realized he was on the chart yesterday, so he didn't pay attention to this detail.
He noticed a small square box, about the size of a small stool, on his index finger where the storage ring was worn.
Four sharp black characters were engraved on it in seal script.
"Heavenly Blessing."
Chen Qiu took it out of the storage ring and tentatively opened the wooden box, which was wrapped in black cloth. Inside, a pill was quietly placed, and at the bottom of the box, there were several lines of small characters introducing the pill.
"Low-grade Celestial Path Foundation Realm Cultivation Pill."
"After ingestion, it can slightly improve one's cultivation."
"It's actually a Celestial Path Cultivation Pill!"
The scholar sitting next to him had a gleam in his eyes and couldn't help but exclaim, "Cultivation Pills are something that, once consumed, can enhance one's cultivation progress. They are a specialty of Pill Cultivators."
"There are Low, Intermediate, Superior, and Ultimate grades."
"Different grades of Cultivation Pills provide different cultivation improvements. You need to circulate your Heart Technique to complement them, but Cultivation Pills will leave impurities in the body. If you don't remove these impurities regularly, they will merge with your Dao Foundation, causing an unstable foundation."
"Generally speaking, it takes about three days to remove the impurities from a single low-grade Cultivation Pill. The higher the grade of the pill, the more it enhances your cultivation, and consequently, the more time is needed to eliminate the impurities."
"These pills are usually prepared for cultivators with limited Spirit Stones."
"After all, directly absorbing Spirit Stones is undoubtedly the most effective method, as the Spirit Energy from Spirit Stones is absolutely pure, and there's no need to spend time removing impurities."
"In the short term, the speed of cultivation improvement from Cultivation Pills is undoubtedly faster than using Spirit Stones, but if you consider the time spent removing impurities, the overall long-term effect is far inferior to absorbing Spirit Stones."
The scholar paused for a moment and continued, "However, the Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill has no side effects and no impurities."
"At most, if you consume too many pills at once, it may cause an unstable foundation, and you'll need some time to stabilize it."
