Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 281 - 153: Treasure for Empowering Divine Sense (2)
"Fellow Daoist Cen, do you mean there’s earth fire beneath this mountain range?"
Cen Zijin nodded, "Don’t forget, I’m an Array Master.
Regarding geomancy, I have some understanding of it."
As she spoke, Cen Zijin pointed to the previously concealed shape of Yanfeng under the array.
"Although the hidden spiritual vein is a rare phenomenon I cannot discern at a glance, the previous shape of this mountain should indicate there’s no doubt of earth fire below.
Moreover, if there is a hidden spiritual vein, this earth fire should be extremely pure, just by setting up an array to draw out the earth fire.
It would be perfect for either alchemy or artifact refining."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning was deep in thought but said,
"That is unfortunate, I haven’t delved into alchemy yet.
If one day I wish to learn this alchemy technique, I will definitely ask you to help set up an array to draw out this earth fire."
Cen Zijin nodded slightly and then transformed into an escape light, disappearing into the sky in an instant.
Chu Ning only returned to his cave mansion slowly after her figure completely vanished.
He then took out two jade scrolls from his storage bag.
One was from the square-faced cultivator named Great Monarch Peng’s storage bag.
It recorded some basic alchemy techniques and quite a few pill formulas.
Cen Zijin’s mention of alchemy before leaving had touched him somewhat.
Previously, Chu Ning hadn’t considered alchemy because he thought starting to learn alchemy wasn’t feasible.
However, after half a year, it seemed that many things had changed.
First, as Chu Ning deepened his cultivation of the Flame Divine Wood Technique and understood the cultivation technique better.
He gained a deeper understanding of the cultivation advice to achieve the first layer before attempting foundation establishment.
In his mind, thoughts of his cultivation proficiency flashed.
[Flame Divine Wood Technique (Profound Tier Upper Grade), First Layer (1254/5000)]
[Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, Volume One, Unbreakable Tendons 948/1500]
[Refining Spirit Technique, Second Layer 685/2000]
The first layer proficiency of the Flame Divine Wood Technique and the threshold for foundation establishment - Chu Ning wasn’t sure which would come first for now.
However, according to the Flame Divine Wood Technique, completing the first layer before foundation establishment was undoubtedly more beneficial for future progress.
At first, he thought converting Wood Attribute to Wood and Fire Dual Attribute magical power completed his magical power purification.
But in fact, it wasn’t so, as he discovered he could continue purifying his magical power during cultivation.
This meant he could increase the proficiency of the Flame Divine Wood Technique, but his cultivation realm wouldn’t rise as quickly.
For example, earlier he sensed that reaching a proficiency of about 3000 already marked the pinnacle of Qi Refining Perfection.
But if combined with magical power purification,
he might need a proficiency of 5000 to touch the threshold of Foundation Establishment.
At this point, Chu Ning understood why some people could reach the fourth layer when establishing foundations, while others reached the fourth layer during the Golden Core Stage.
The reason some didn’t purify magical power naturally related to physique and talent.
Chu Ning wasn’t sure if it was because of his Yin Wood Spirit Body, Noon Fire Spirit Body, or the previous Spirit Charm Qi.
But regardless, Chu Ning wasn’t going to give up this opportunity.
More profound and pure magical power might make him stronger after Foundation Establishment, but it also made magical power liquification for Foundation Establishment more challenging.
Thus, he thought growing enough Flame Wood Twin Fruit might not be sufficient.
He had to prepare another option from the cultivation technique, the Profound Spirit Treasure Pill.
But refining the Profound Spirit Treasure Pill wasn’t easy, and he hadn’t been fully committed to preparing it.
However, recent events gave him some confidence.
Firstly, from Great Monarch Peng’s storage bag, he unexpectedly obtained some basic alchemy techniques and pill formulas.
This meant Chu Ning had the entry-level knowledge for learning alchemy.
Another was that Cen Zijin mentioned earth fire that could be drawn here.
This meant he fully met the conditions for alchemy.
"Yet, all of this should be delayed, and delayed significantly."
Chu Ning looked serious at this moment.
"If Cen Zijin sets up an array to draw earth fire, she would undoubtedly access the spiritual vein and realize this hidden spiritual vein can faintly reach the Tier Two Upper Grade level.
A Tier Two Upper Grade spirit vein is the top existence in this Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, even if this spirit vein isn’t large.
It’s hard to predict the Cen Family might have covetous intentions."
Because of this, Chu Ning decided he needed to become stronger and also required a bit more time.
When he could reveal his Qi Refining Perfection realm to others, combined with showing some techniques, naturally Cen Zijin would be more cautious.
Simultaneously, Chu Ning harbored a slight hope that when he achieved First Layer Perfection in the Flame Divine Wood Technique, his Spirit Body Talent would refresh. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
His Yin Wood Spirit Body previously refreshed to Talismanic Spirit Body because the Wood Attribute cultivation technique was best for Talisman Making.
For Fire Attribute cultivation technique, alchemy was the most suitable.
"Perhaps, after reaching First Layer Perfection in Flame Divine Wood Technique, I might have to wait some time before Foundation Establishment.
But this time, I can afford to wait, and it’s worth the wait!"
As Chu Ning thought this, he took a deep breath and put the jade scroll back into the storage bag.
Then he picked up another jade scroll in front of him, which he got yesterday from He Mingjin, the gray-clothed cultivator.
