Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Buying a house? I can never do that in this lifetime l

Translator: 549690339 freewebnov(e)l

Half a month has passed since the opening ceremony of the Dao Debate Platform.

During this time, Luo Chen markedly deviated from his norm and did not continue with pill refinement.

There were many reasons for this, not least because he needed to familiarize himself with the people and affairs of the Broken Mountain Gang.

There was no real lack of Spirit Stones in his possession. He originally had one hundred and fifty Lower Grade Spirit Stones. After reselling the entrance tickets, he had an additional two hundred.

He had also previously purchased five bottles of Qi Nurturing Pills, enough for a month’s worth of cultivation.

However, these were not the most crucial factors.

The most critical reason came from his observation of battle after battle, particularly the fierce battles between eighteen Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators, which led to his substantial gains.

Despite being at the same major stage, despite not being at high levels, the only thing affected was the total quantity of Spirit Power in his body.

Absorbing the techniques of those late-stage cultivators afforded him a scope of understanding that was not surpassed.

After observing the battles, he gained insights into techniques, magic tools, and even the transition between offense and defense.

Whilst these insights could not be considered true “epiphanies,” they were nonetheless invaluable.

Therefore, he had to seize the opportunity to absorb and digest this knowledge, transforming it into viable combat capability.

After all, Gao Tingyuan was still eyeing him like a tiger eyeing its prey.

For the time being, he couldn’t hope to make any strides in improving his cultivation stage.

So, his focus shifted to enhancing his combat capabilities.

Moreover, he had the necessary backward conditions.

With the Grandmaster Level Longevity Technique, he had an automatic Spirit Power regeneration effect. This allowed him to release a substantial number of techniques.

After half a month, he sparred with Qin Liangchen daily.

As he helped the other find their rhythm and familiarize himself with his arm, Luo Chen’s own proficiency in techniques climbed steadily.

Now, it was time for him to reap the rewards.

[Lifespan: 27/75]

[Spirit Roots: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth]

[Stage: Qi Refinement Stage, Fifth Level: 16/100]

[Cultivation Technique: Longevity Technique Grandmaster: 560/1000]

[Technique: Fireball Technique Finalization, Carefree Wandering Grandmaster 712/1000, Wind Control Technique Grandmaster 510/1000, Attraction Technique Grandmaster 550/1000, Entanglement Technique Perfection 370/500, Spirit Vision Technique Perfection 310/500, Cleaning Technique Mastery 201/300,]

[Skill: First Order Pill Refiner: Fasting Pill Grandmaster 840/1000, Allure Pill Perfection 301/500]

[Achievement Points: 21 Points]

After looking at his current attribute panel, Luo Chen could barely hide his excitement.

At last, he had a technique that had reached its maximum proficiency.

Fireball Technique Finalization!

Luo Chen formed a thought, and a fireball appeared in his palm.

About the size of a fist, it contained high temperatures. It had not inconsiderable impulsive force if it were to explode.

Frowning slightly, Luo Chen noticed that the single fireball technique seemed not to have changed at all.

He let out a little Spirit Power, and the fireball suddenly transformed into a small bird, resembling a sparrow or a phoenix, full of life and animation.

If a widely experienced cultivator would have seen this, they would no doubt have been slightly amazed.

Only disciples of the Five Elements Divine Sect could perform such subtly transformative techniques.

And not just any ordinary disciple, but one who has entered the inner gate and has the potential to establish Foundations.

Nevertheless, Luo Chen still found this somewhat dissatisfying.

Because this technique did not come from the Fireball Technique’s Finalization.

It was something he had developed after half a month of sparring with Qin Liangchen, taking his advice and using his own deductions.

It integrated some of the subtle uses of the Attraction Technique.

However, fundamentally, neither its speed nor its power had changed much.

It did nothing more than elevate the level of his control over Spirit Power.

Oh, and by the way, it also allowed the Attraction Technique to reach Perfection Level Proficiency.

But this was not what Luo Chen intended to achieve.

“So where is the change?”

Luo Chen pondered hard, steadily increasing the Spirit Power in his hand, one fireball after another appearing.

It quickly came to ten fireballs.

Previously, this had been his limit, allowing him to construct his minor killing move, ‘Flying Flame Fireflies.’

Suddenly, Luo Chen had a feeling.

It seemed like his limit had been broken.

With a thought, yet another fireball slowly materialized.

Luo Chen’s eyebrows raised, increasing the output of his Spirit Power. The twelfth one!

Another one!

Thirteen! Fourteen… twenty!

The man sat cross-legged on the bed, twenty small fireballs circling and dancing around him. They whirled about nimble and full of murderous intent.

Luo Chen was shocked, not just because of the quantity, but because he felt he could continue to increase the number.

Based on the total amount of Spirit Power in his body now, he could create nearly a hundred fireballs with the Fireball Technique!

Although none of them were large fireballs at their limit.

But it was already quite terrifying.

What was the concept?

A First Order Ascendant Grade Talisman, Meteor Rain, only contained one hundred Fireball Techniques.

Moreover, Ascendant Grade Talismans often corresponded to the attack capabilities of late-stage Qi Refinement.

“It seems like there’s more to it than just that?”

Luo Chen hesitated, slowly bringing the two fireballs closer together.

Sizzle…

Sparks flew as they effortlessly fused into one.

Their size doubled.

“It’s not just limited to two!”

Luo Chen was generally a coward, especially when it came to battles, which is why he had recently agreed to train with Qin Liangchen – to get used to fighting.

Unlike the previous two instances where he had to kill and seize treasures, which were mostly reactive counters.

But Luo Chen was also bold in a different way.

This was shown in his fearlessness when it came to things like pill refining and techniques, which didn’t require him to fight with others.

He dared to stake everything on refining Allure Pill, and he dared to practice the slightly dangerous Spirit Vision Technique without anyone’s guidance.

At this moment, faced with another change in the Fireball Technique.

He began the fusion journey with cautious curiosity and unparalleled bravery.

After two, came three, four, five….

Looking at the giant fireball that resembled a mini-sun, Luo Chen’s eyes widened.

In the next moment, he instinctively activated the Carefree Wandering and Wind Riding Techniques, both at Grandmaster Level.

Whoosh!

A figure darted out.

Behind him, the mini-sun became unstable and slowly expanded.

An intense sun erupted suddenly!

Boom!

“Damn you Luo Chen, what are you trying…”

Qin Liangchen looked dumbfounded at the half-collapsed, burning house.

“Big Brother Qin, if I say I blew up the house unintentionally while refining a pill, would you believe me?”

Luo Chen appeared beside him suddenly, looking innocently.

Qin Liangchen stared at him and slowly said,

“Do you think I’m an idiot?”

Luo Chen gave a mischievous smile and stopped explaining.

Suddenly, he remembered something and shouted,

“Put out the fire!”

His belongings were still inside.

In the end, they didn’t allow outsiders to put out the fire.

Qin Liangchen had the Gold, Earth, and Water Spirit Roots. He usually used his gold-based magic tools and techniques against his enemies, but he actually knew a few water-based techniques.

With a casting of Little Cloud Rain Technique, the drizzling rain protected the house.

When the fire was almost out, Luo Chen rushed inside.

In a short while, he emerged holding a bronze furnace.

“Thank goodness.”

“The processed herbs weren’t burnt, they are just dirty. After a bit of cleaning, they can still be used.”

“Sister Xiu Xiu’s plants and flowers, which are usually placed outside during the day, were unscathed.”

“My most precious Purple Cloud Bronze Furnace is also intact.”

The mini-sun had exploded in his bedroom.

Naturally, the room that was the most damaged was his bedroom.

However, in the bedroom, there were only a few pieces of furniture – a bed, a wooden table, and some clothes.

They weren’t worth much.

When he came out, he saw an old man swearing furiously.

“Fine, definitely need to pay a fine!”

Qin Liangchen sighed, “Mr. Sun, it was just a minor accident while refining pill, there’s no need for a fine in spirit stones right?”

“What do you mean by minor accident? These houses were specially built by the cultivators of Ailao Mountain who the sect hired. They subtly incorporate the Five Elements, and are obviously grand and luxurious. Now that the house has collapsed, he must compensate for that.” Sun Shou rambled in disappointment.

Qin Liangchen offered a sheepish smile, “I will immediately get the men from the gang to repair the house, we’ll restore it to exactly how it was.”

Sun Shou snorted, “Do your apprentices match up to the cultivators of Ailao Mountain?”

“Five! Five Spirit Stones!” Luo Chen grumbled.

“Deal, hand over the spirit stones!”

The cold smile on Sun Shou’s face disappeared, replaced by a warm breeze-like smile.

Reluctantly, Luo Chen brought out five Spirit Stones. This old man, his facial expressions changed faster than a dog’s!

After receiving the spirit stones, Sun Shou reminded them before leaving,

“The rent for next quarter is due soon, remember to hand it over.”

“Oh, and Qin, you guys need to pay up too. I say, why not just buy this set of western chambers altogether? It’s not too expensive, just a few thousand spirit stones.”

“Take care on your way out!”

“Watch your step, don’t trip!”

Luo Chen and Qin hurriedly bid the old man farewell.

Then, they looked forlornly at the smoky fallen house.

Qin Liangchen: “Buy a house? I will never buy a house in this life! If I were to buy, it would be at the Luo Yun Sect, at least it’s closer to my son.”

Luo Chen: “My house, what a disaster!”
