I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency Chapter 37

Chapter 37

When he was testing the effects of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, Lu Yuan discovered that this cultivation technique could not only increase one’s defense and strength but also give the cultivator a long lifespan like the black tortoise.

On top of that, based on the description of this technique, the limit of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique was far from just the Nascent Soul Stage.

If a cultivator of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique could absorb the blood essence of the divine beast, the mystical black tortoise, the black tortoise’s power could possibly achieve atavism and beco the power of the mystical black tortoise.

At that stage, the so-called Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique would naturally beco the Nine Guard Mystical Black Tortoise Technique.

That being said, even though many had cultivated the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique since ancient tis, only a few had managed to cultivate the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique to the point it beca the Nine Guard Mystical Black Tortoise Technique.

On one hand, the mystical black tortoise was an ancient divine beast, which was on a completely different level from the black tortoise, an ancient demonic beast. Ordinary people would be lucky to even encounter the mystical black tortoise, let alone obtain its blood essence.

If the black tortoise was akin to a cultivator, then the mystical black tortoise would be a celestial who had ascended.

There was no comparison between the two in terms of strength or numbers.

Not to ntion the blood essence of the mystical black tortoise was a treasure that even the Tribulation Crossing Stage big shots and real celestials would go crazy for.

He, Lu Yuan, was only a re Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivator. How could he have the qualifications to pursue such a celestial treasure?

Other than the fact that the black tortoise’s blood essence was hard to obtain, it was also not an easy thing to make the black tortoise’s power achieve avatism by devouring the blood essence of the mystical black tortoise.

How could one devour the blood essence of a divine beast just because one wanted to?

Therefore, the advanced cultivation technique of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, the Nine Guard Mystical Black Tortoise Technique, in a sense, was not the normal kind of technique that could be passed down.

It was more like a beautiful fantasy of all cultivators who cultivated the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.

To others, it was just a fantasy, but this was not the case for Lu Yuan.

As ntioned before, although the system’s skill advancent was overbearing, not all skills could be advanced at will.

For example, cultivation techniques and so special abilities could not be easily advanced through the system unless certain conditions were t.

According to Lu Yuan’s judgnt, if he cultivated the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage and found the mystical black tortoise’s blood essence, he might be able to trigger the advancent chanism of this skill. With that, he could then learn the Nine Guard Mystical Black Tortoise Technique through the system.

Lu Yuan felt that this idea of his was more than 50% feasible.

He even got new inspiration from the “Nine Guard Mystical Black Tortoise Technique”, this special advanced cultivation technique.

Since there was a Mystical Black Tortoise Technique, then the azure dragon, white tiger, vermillion bird, Qilin, and other divine beasts should also have corresponding cultivation techniques.

If he were to cultivate all these techniques at the sa ti, in addition to obtaining greater strength, he might even be able to derive special effects.

However, regarding the gathering of the cultivation techniques of the divine beasts, Lu Yuan was only thinking about it and did not plan to act imdiately.

What a joke, his cultivation technique now was just still a re “black tortoise”.

He had not even learned a single divine beast cultivation technique, let alone the many divine beasts.

At his current stage, he would undoubtedly be too full of himself if he started to seek out the cultivation techniques of the divine beasts.

That being said, although he couldn’t learn the top-tier cultivation techniques of the divine beasts for the ti being, it seed that he could still try to cultivate the lower-grade edition of the divine beasts’ cultivation techniques.

In the Qingyun Sect, there were many other “vicious beast techniques” like the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.

It was not a difficult task for Lu Yuan to find all the lower-grade divine beasts’ cultivation techniques.

However, Lu Yuan’s requirent for himself was to have all spiritual roots achieve Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens.

Therefore, he wasn’t planning on exchanging for those cultivation techniques any ti soon.

After all, he couldn’t imdiately achieve Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens after exchanging for them, so why should he be in such a hurry to get them? Just for show?

As a steady person, he had to understand the importance of taking things one step at a ti.

Right now, his top priority was to find a way to obtain more luck value, then find a treasure that could help him achieve Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens for his wind spiritual root.

This was what he should be doing now.

Thus, after thinking about all this, Lu Yuan returned to his residence and started to consolidate his cultivation.

Just as Lu Yuan was developing steadily, the Qingyun Sect had also begun a large-scale operation due to the sound of the heavens Lu Yuan had caused when he achieved Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens.

The Qingyun Sect had sent out almost all of its disciples, and the land within a 500-mile radius of the sect had been turned upside down.

Unfortunately, none of the disciples found the source of the sound of the heavens.

In the end. they could only leave it at that…

…

Seven days later, at the place where the Qingyun Sect’s patriarch was in secluded cultivation.

“Patriarch, our 3000 disciples have already searched the surroundings of the sect, but we haven’t found any strange people or phenona.”

Hearing Mu Chen’s report, Patriarch Qing Hong was puzzled.

“This doesn’t make sense. How can there be nothing? The sound of the heavens is extraordinary. It can’t possibly have appeared for no reason…”

The reason why Patriarch Qing Hong said this was that every ti the sound of the heavens appeared, it was either the birth of a rare treasure or the appearance of an outstanding genius.

No matter which one it was, it would be beneficial to the sect.

The forr could increase his strength as the patriarch, while the latter could add another “monstrous disciple” to the sect.

Yet, even after sending so many disciples out to search, they still found nothing.

There could be many reasons for this.

Either whatever had caused the sound of the heavens had been taken away by soone else, or the genius who triggered the sound of the heavens had been taken in by a master nearby.

It was even possible that the thing that had gained sentience had run away on its own.

Thinking of this, Qing Hong made his decision, “Alright, alright. You can go back then, Xiao Mu. As for the disciples in the sect, let them go on their expeditions and cultivate as they should. Don’t bother with this matter anymore.”

“This disciple will follow your orders.”

After saying that, Mu Chen left Patriarch Qing Hong’s residence.

The two of them would never have thought that the person who had caused the sound of the heavens had actually been right under their noses all along.

…

In the depths of the Pharmacist Valley in the Qingyun Sect.

Lu Yuan stood in front of an ordinary herb field and said respectfully, “Disciple Lu Yuan is here to pay respects to master.”

Not long after, an old man’s voice ca from the herb field.

“There’s no need for all the courtesy. Co in.”

“This disciple will follow your orders.”

Lu Yuan pushed open the door to the courtyard and entered the herb field.

The mont he entered, he imdiately felt a different aura.

A dazzling array of precious herbs appeared before his eyes, causing Lu Yuan to be secretly speechless.

The dicinal herbs in front of him were all rare existences in the outside world.

It could be seen that his master, Han Yuanshan, had spent a lot of ti and effort nurturing these herbs.

At this mont, Han Yuanshan was carefully taking care of these spiritual herbs.

The strange thing was that Han Yuanshan did not speak to Lu Yuan imdiately after the latter entered.

Instead, he just left him there.

Regarding this, Lu Yuan knew very well in his heart that his master was putting on airs now.

His master would first remain silent and pretend to be doing sothing ordinary. Then, he would suddenly ask a question to test his disciple.

At that ti, it didn’t matter if Lu Yuan could answer or not. His master, Han Yuanshan, would summarize everything in the end.

With such a set of procedures, his master’s unfathomable character could then be established on the spot!

Lu Yuan understood all this, and as a steady person, he would not expose his master at this ti.

After all, as a disciple, he had to have the awareness of one.

It was undoubtedly suicidal to interrupt his master’s action of lording it over.

About after the ti it took an incense stick to burn since Lu Yuan entered the herb field, Han Yuanshan seed to have finally rembered his presence and turned to look at him.

“Not bad. Looks like you’ve finally succeeded in Foundation Establishnt. I’ve looked into your files before. Your cultivation talent is not outstanding, but you were still able to successfully achieve Foundation Establishnt. You must have suffered a lot.”

As he said that, Elder Han suddenly laughed and pointed to the herbs in front of him, “Do you recognize these herbs?”

“Master, I can recognize most of them, but so of them I have never seen before, so I can’t recognize all…”

Before Lu Yuan could finish his sentence, Han Yuanshan suddenly threw him a pill recipe.

Lu Yuan caught the pill recipe and looked at it curiously.

[Foundation Establishnt Pill Recipe, Spirit Concentration Pill]

[Effect: Able to nurture a cultivator’s spiritual sense and achieve the effect of calming the mind.]

“It’s the sa as before. If you can refine the spirit concentration pill by yourself within a year, then you’ll have passed the test. When the ti cos, you can make a request of . As long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Really?”

Elder Han smiled as he stroked his beard, “I’m not joking.”

“What if I want a drop of blood essence from a wind-type demon king?”

“No prob… Wait, what did you just say you wanted?”

“I said I want a drop of blood essence from a wind-type demon king.”

Looking at Lu Yuan, who was making an exorbitant demand, Han Yuanshan was stunned.

Had this brat’s appetite always been this big?

Did he even understand the significance of the words “demon king”?!
