Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 163: Chapter 114: Advancement to Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation

Late at night.

The temperature in the shantytown continued to drop.

Pedestrians on the road almost disappeared, resembling a scene of deathly silence.

Few loose cultivators dared to walk around in the middle of the night.

After all, they needed to guard against the dreadful demons emerging from the depths of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

This made the shantytown a bit jumpy during this period.

However, all of this had little to do with Jiang Fan.

With the protection of many exorcism talismans, ordinary demons dared not enter his home.

This counted as a rare safe haven in the shantytown.

At this moment.

Inside the wooden house, in the practice room.

Jiang Fan sat cross-legged on the ground, taking out a jade bottle from his storage bag.

Inside was spiritual liquid.

Just a single drop, but it was worth three hundred Spirit Stones, truly expensive.

Only the wealthy could afford it.

Because of this, the spiritual liquid had remained unsold in the Cyan Forest Market for so long.

The spiritual liquid inside was crystal clear, seemingly suffused with a rainbow glow, containing mysterious substances.

No one knew where the Great Sun Sword Sect obtained the spiritual liquid.

Spiritual objects like this were still incredibly rare.

Even inner sect disciples of the Great Sun Sword Sect couldn’t consume it regularly.

Generally, precious spiritual liquid was used to break through bottlenecks.

Unlike Jiang Fan, who used it to enhance his cultivation, a bit extravagant indeed.

Boom~~

At this thought, Jiang Fan took a deep breath, calmed his mind, opened the jade bottle, and directly swallowed the spiritual liquid inside.

The spiritual liquid entered his stomach.

The vast, pure energy swiftly spread throughout his body.

It felt like his body was soaking in extremely concentrated spiritual qi.

All over his body was a warm sensation.

This made him feel particularly comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring.

”This.”

Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted, he hadn’t even begun to circulate the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, and already the primordial spiritual power in the depths of his elixir field and sea of qi began to riot, forming a vortex, spinning madly.

The primordial spiritual power within his body was increasing at a visibly rapid rate.

Centered around his body, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surged in, forming a miniature spiritual energy vortex.

Too fast, way too fast.

Usually, circulating the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, even with daily diligent cultivation, the increase in the elixir field’s spiritual power each day was little, as slow as a snail.

And he had Earth Spirit Root talent.

If it were a low-grade Spirit Root cultivator, they would be even more despairing, as it wouldn’t be as simple as a snail, but simply wouldn’t progress, so over the years, the elixir field’s spiritual power doesn’t significantly increase, and the cultivation also sees no progress.

But now, after consuming a drop of spiritual liquid, its effects were far better than white ginseng pills or middle-grade gathering spirit pills, the two not even on the same level.

”No wonder the spiritual liquid costs three hundred Spirit Stones a drop, the effect is indeed impressive.”

”You get what you pay for.”

Jiang Fan was overjoyed, feeling he had indeed made the right purchase this time.

With this in mind, he operated the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, as the primordial talisman in the depths of his sea of qi began to function, controlling each surge of increasing primordial spiritual power and channeling it into his meridians.

An hour, two hours, three hours...

During this time, he consumed another two drops of spiritual liquid, causing the primordial spiritual power in his body to surge again.

This caused the spiritual power to fill forth into four meridians within his body.

Even though he was cultivating the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, which required more spiritual power, the energy contained within the three drops of spiritual liquid was entirely sufficient.

Boom~~

When the primordial spiritual power within him reached a certain level, the primordial power lightly struck, effortlessly breaking through the bottleneck of the fifth meridian, penetrating it.

Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

The sensation was like water flowing naturally into a channel.

Once there was enough spiritual power internally, he could naturally upgrade to the next realm, incredibly facile and comfortable.

After all, for Earth Spirit Root cultivators, the Qi Cultivation Stage wouldn’t have bottlenecks.

Only upon reaching Foundation Establishment Realm does a bottleneck appear, stalling an Earth Spirit Root cultivator momentarily.

If bottlenecks appear in the Qi Cultivation Stage, it would be too belittling for Earth Spirit Root cultivators.

”Did I just break through?”

”Merely using three drops of spiritual liquid.”

”Actually advanced me to the Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation Realm.”

”Indeed, a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object, though costly, it certainly proves its worth.”

Jiang Fan couldn’t be happier, sensing the surge of spiritual power within him.

Comparatively, his internal spiritual power had increased by at least half.

The strength of his spiritual sense also grew significantly.

The primordial spiritual power wandered continuously among his five meridians.

Meanwhile, the primordial talisman deep in his sea of qi also expanded considerably, allowing for the inscription of the fifth life talisman.

”If I could obtain a large amount of spiritual liquid, my cultivation might very soon advance to the Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation, even the Seventh or Eighth Layer.”

”Indeed for cultivators, cultivation resources are extremely crucial.”

”High-grade cultivation resources can yield twice the result with half the effort.”

”Let alone considering my Earth Spirit Root talent.”

”Acquiring Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects would be like adding wings to a tiger.”

Jiang Fan clenched his fists.

He felt that purchasing the spiritual liquid was indeed the right decision, offering so many benefits compared to other elixirs.

And there are no side effects at all.

The only drawback is the expense.

But this isn’t really a flaw of the spiritual liquid, but rather his own, as he was simply too poor.
