Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Two Years Handed
The sight of my tall, wholesome crops crammed me with pleasure. I retrieved a basket from my storage to assemble the harvested crops and started working.
This was a second I had been eagerly anticipating for a very long time. The absence of Kang Duyi’s physique was now not occupying my ideas. Why ought to I concern myself with it? If it adopted the predictable path of a typical villain, he would resurface sooner or later to problem me and certain make a couple of extra appearances earlier than assembly his final demise. It was a predetermined destiny, and as a weak cultivator, I could not alter its course.
With that in thoughts, I centered on harvesting my crops. The primary ones to be gathered had been the potatoes. Initially, no Religious Herbs appeared. They had been simply unusual potatoes, albeit bigger and more healthy than what the villagers of Riverside may produce.
Nevertheless, after constantly harvesting the potatoes, one with Qi emerged! To my shock, my system despatched me a notification about it.
[Spiritual Potato Harvested]
[Beneficial to Cultivation if consumed raw. Cannot be used to make pills.]
I could not comprise my pleasure. Lastly, I had obtained one thing that might help my cultivation, although I used to be a bit upset that it could not be utilized for pill-making functions.
This revelation raised one other query in my thoughts. Wouldn’t it be attainable to make use of it in pill-making if I possessed the recipe, or was it an impossibility? Moreover, I questioned what would occur if I had been to plant a Religious Herb. Would the system additional improve its high quality?
Anyway, that truth threw my thought of creating drugs with my crops down the drain. Every little thing I used to be cultivating was simply regular crops, as these had been the one ones I may get from Riverside.
Nonetheless, a potato may enhance my cultivation, and nothing said a most variety of potatoes I may eat or if it had unwanted effects. Which means, my food plan would change solely to Religious Meals!
I appreciated the identify. I felt it match. I harvested all of the potatoes and greens, and based mostly on my calculations, the speed for the crop turning into Religious was round 20%.
It wasn’t dangerous. I had no thought if the identical price would apply after I cultivated Religious Herbs.
Even when the crops may very well be used to make drugs, I didn’t have the alchemy furnace or respectable mastery over the cultivation artwork I simply obtained from Zhao Fa.
“It’s time to eat and domesticate!” I murmured, taking the basket full of Religious Meals.
The place I selected to domesticate was the cultivator lair beneath my farm. That was the most secure place the place nobody would come to trouble me.
I made a decision to meditate inside that water pond. It helped my wounds heal final time, however I knew Religious Springs had extra advantages, akin to rising cultivation pace! It was time for secluded meditation…
Two years handed within the blink of a watch. I practiced my Soul Fusion cultivation artwork each single day, rising my very own cultivation stage in addition to Huge T’s, which was principally mine as nicely.
Inside these two years, I managed to succeed in the height of the Tenth Layer of the Qi Condensation realm in each of my Dantians! That was fairly quick, all due to the Religious Meals I used to be cultivating on my farm.
My preliminary ideas had been that the Religious Crops would solely improve my cultivation pace barely, not being corresponding to drugs in any means. n-/OveLBIn
Properly, it was true. The crops had been a lot weaker than a capsule, however additionally they had their benefit: I may eat them with out unwanted effects!
Nobody may take drugs as they wished. It will make their cultivation unstable, impure, and will hinder their future progress. However I skilled none of these unwanted effects with the crops!
Nonetheless, after two years, I needed to go away my secluded meditation and go away my farm. The crops weren’t serving to me out anymore, and to succeed in the subsequent two phases, the Eleventh and Twelfth layers, I needed to go discover the world.
The Qi Condensation realm had twelve layers, and after that got here the Basis Institution realm. It will be unimaginable for me to succeed in the final two layers of Qi Condensation with out precise fights, and to succeed in the Basis realm, I would want a Basis capsule.
That alchemy artwork Zhao Fa gave me was certainly extraordinary, however there was a catch he didn’t inform me. I wanted to succeed in the Basis realm earlier than beginning to follow it!
“Freaking previous man tricked me… Properly, at the least I obtained a variety of Religious Stones!” I cursed.
Throughout these two years, my second Dantian grew more and more highly effective, and the Qi inside grew to become toxic! Moreover, throughout my coaching, I discovered a couple of extra martial arts strategies, most of which had been associated to poison assaults.
It was peculiar. Usually, cultivators would hunt down a cultivation artwork for meditation after which seek for martial arts of the same factor. Nevertheless, I did not have to try this. As my second Dantian grew stronger, some strategies would randomly manifest in my thoughts. I nonetheless needed to follow them, however at the least I did not must seek for them on this planet!
However, I nonetheless desired to amass stronger martial arts. Cultivators had a big selection of martial arts to select from inside their sects, however as a rogue cultivator, I lacked that luxurious.
Anyway, I entrusted Dai Guiren with the care of my farm as soon as once more.
“You haven’t any crops to are inclined to,” I defined, “however please handle my fish and chickens.”
“After all, don’t fret about it,” Dai Guiren replied, as respectful as ever.
Simply as I used to be about to depart, a red-haired boy approached me. He was fourteen years previous.
“Uncle Tian Li, why are you leaving?” he requested.
The boy was Tang Yusheng. Among the many villagers, he was one who confirmed potential to develop into a cultivator. I had mentioned this together with his dad and mom, and so they agreed to let him be part of a sect.
I made a suggestion to them, stating that in three years, I might develop into an Elder in a sect and convey him together with me. They agreed, and over the previous two years, Tang Yusheng and I had develop into good buddies, with him affectionately calling me “uncle.”
“My secluded meditation has come to a halt, and I have to progress by exploring the world. I will be away for a while, maybe a couple of months,” I defined.
“A number of months? Aren’t we supposed to hitch a sect in a single yr? Are you positive you will return in time? And please handle your self, Uncle Tian Li…”
I embraced the boy. “Don’t be concerned, I will be again. Handle Huge F and my chickens whereas I am away, and keep in mind to coach your physique each day, understood?”
“Sure!”
After bidding farewell to him, I watched Tang Yusheng cry as I left Riverside. My vacation spot? A treacherous forest referred to as the Darkish Wooden. It was a spot the place many cultivators went to sharpen their expertise, together with myself.
Stuffed with Religious Beasts, it was a spot the place one’s life may very well be misplaced at any second.
