Chen Mobai checked the time, noting that there was still more than an hour before the students in the first batch would finish their Cultivation Room session. He wasn’t in a hurry to leave, so he casually continued to ask more about the purification and enhancement of Spirit Roots.
“Yan Bingxuan’s family must have experts. They knew that her Spirit Roots could be transformed into the Ice Spirit Root through the ‘Frost Condensation Technique,’ so she was guided towards this goal from the very beginning of her cultivation.”
“The method of purifying and enhancing Spirit Roots consumes less time and resources when performed at a lower realm.”
“She’s only a young girl, but she’s already in the latter stage of Qi Cultivation. Conservatively speaking, she can attempt Foundation Establishment three times and wants to transform her Spirit Root into an Ice Spirit Root before Qi Cultivation Perfection.”
“If successful, she could enter the Nature Studies Academy, one of the top ten academies, without examination. With further progress, she might even pass the tests of the four top Daoist Academies and reach the sky in one step.”
The four top Daoist Academies were founded by the five Divinity Transformation old masters who founded the Immortal Cultivation path.
Every graduate is a potential high-level cultivator of Immortality.
Over thousands of years, the success rate of Foundation Establishment among students from the four top Daoist Academies has exceeded 80 percent.
For Red Sandstone City, a blessed land on the periphery of the Immortal Sect, the last person who got into the four top Daoist Academies was Yu Tianguang, who successfully reached Core Formation a hundred years ago.
After leaving Old Man Ding’s office, Chen Mobai waited for a dozen minutes before becoming a part of the second batch entering the Cultivation Room.
He positioned his cell phone, switched on the Auxiliary Cultivation video recording mode, then entered tranquility and began to run the Qi Nourishing Technique again, refining the Spiritual Power enhanced by the pill he had taken, and made it his own.
Time slowly passed, and the Soul Stabilizing Charm woke Chen Mobai up as usual.
He left the main entrance of the Cultivation Room. There were only a dozen unlucky ones remaining from the third batch left inside.
Glancing around, he spotted his desk-mate Lu Hongsheng and some classmates with whom he got along well. They greeted each other and then went their separate ways home.
Normally, these close-knit classmates could share some Spiritual Tea and play some small games to practice spell usage after school.
But since entering their senior year, all these leisure activities had been cancelled.
The tremendous pressure of advancing in their studies even made Lu Hongsheng, who used to be rather laid-back due to his inferior Spirit Roots and lazy attitude, start trying hard.
Before returning home, Chen Mobai purchased a box of glass beads from a roadside convenience store to practice controlling his Spiritual Power.
After he arrived home, while waiting for the dinner to cook, he cut up some little charm papers, logged into the online trading platform, and found that only one cultivator from the same city had made an offer.
18 Good Deed Points.
A bit low, but Chen Mobai would have agreed to the deal under normal circumstances. After all, his product was a small workshop product, and it was bound to be cheaper than the regular stores.
But today, he wanted to explore the Water Mansion he had teleported to via the Turtle Shell again, so he wasn’t in a rush to make any deals.
After eating and cleaning up, Chen Mobai returned to his room.
He held the Turtle Shell in his hands for a careful inspection, but it was still the same as last night. It was just an ordinary old Turtle Shell, covered in traces of smoking and fire, with no trace of Spiritual Energy at all.
If it hadn’t been for the miraculous journey last night, Chen Mobai would never have believed that this item was actually a space Magic Artifact.
Putting the Turtle Shell into his bedside table drawer, Chen Mobai took out his cell phone and tapped on the app named “Turtle Treasure.”
After exploring it for the entire night yesterday, he now had some understanding of this “Turtle Treasure.”
The three functions, ‘Teleport,’ ‘Return,’ and ‘Proxy,’ couldn’t be used unlimitedly. Only when the virtual buttons corresponding to these features in the app protruded and lit up could they be activated.
Chen Mobai waited until three o’clock in the morning last night, then once again used ‘Teleport’ to go to the Water Mansion. Though he still didn’t get anything, he’d cultivated there all night, and the after-effects of taking the pill had already been reduced by 50-60 percent.
Chen Mobai figured that if he locked himself in the Water Mansion for another two or three days of cultivation, he should be able to eliminate the hidden danger of pill-induced cultivation. Then he could once again practice the Five Elements Cultivation to upgrade his Qi Cultivating Realm.
This is precisely why Chen Mobai had plucked up the courage to go to the Water Mansion once again, and even tried to crack the prohibition on the main hall.
This was an intermediate-grade Rank-2 Spiritual Land. To rent land with this level of Spiritual Energy within the Immortal Sect, it would cost 160 Good Deed Points per month. After a rough calculation, every day Chen Mobai cultivated at the Water Mansion was equivalent to freeloading 5.33 Good Deed Points. Poor him, he painstakingly cut up charm papers and yet only managed to earn two to three dozen Good Deed Points a month.
Thinking this way, it’s not surprising that Chen Mobai started to look down on his small online workshop business.
“Based on the experience of teleporting back and forth twice yesterday, the cooldown time for ‘Teleport’ should be 6 hours, while ‘Return’ should be slightly longer and require 10 hours. The cooldown countdown begins from the last use…”
Chen Mobai quickly calculated the timing of his two experiences last night in his mind and came to a preliminary conclusion.
Half an hour later, it was exactly ten hours since he teleported back in the morning, and the ‘Return’ button protruded and lit up in his sight.
This way, if he found something amiss, he could return immediately.
Chen Mobai hung a sign that said “Do not disturb, in seclusion” on his door quickly, then locked his door from the inside, took a deep breath, and clicked on the protruding ‘Teleport’ button in the Turtle Treasure app on his phone.
[Do you want to teleport to location 1 (Unnamed)?]
Chen Mobai clicked [Yes].
After that, a flickering silver light enveloped him. In about five or six seconds, he disappeared from the room, becoming one with the light.
When he looked up and saw the familiar underwater environment, he suppressed the joy emanating from his heart.
Although he didn’t know where this place was, at least, he now had a secret base with an intermediate-grade Rank-2 Spiritual Land.
He took out the prepared box of glass beads and infused them with Spiritual Power. The originally transparent beads began to emit colorful lights. This was because the Spiritual Power generated by Chen Mobai’s practice of the Five Elements Cultivation had the attributes of the Five Elements mixed in.
The Five Elements Cultivation was a basic cultivation technique created by a Divinity Transformation old master after a thousand years of meditation. Any cultivator practicing this technique would automatically convert it into the Spiritual Power attribute most suited to them. It was as if each cultivator had a personalized Qi cultivation technique, which perfectly suited their physical constitution and Spirit Roots.
Like Chen Mobai, the attributes of his Spirit Roots were: Gold 23, Wood 27, Water 23, Fire 17, and Earth 10.
So when he practiced the Five Elements Cultivation, the generated Spiritual Power would have 23% Gold Attribute, 27% Wood Attribute… perfectly adapting to his Spirit Root attributes.
Moreover, these Five Elements Spiritual Powers would circulate and generate each other when cultivated. This not only promoted the advancement of the Realm but also served as the main reliance of the Immortal Sect, allowing everyone to cultivate immortality in a resource-scarce place like the Earth Elemental Star.
