This is the wonder of the Purple Talisman!

An incredibly wondrous display!

Therefore, Lin Xiuyuan has at least a 40% chance of winning against Han Chenhua!

That's the source of his confidence in accepting the challenge!

...

…………

"Although it's a loss to exchange the resources at hand, it will at least ensure that I can maintain super-fast cultivation for the next ten years."

"In this way, the resources accumulated throughout this period will be used in these ten years. Although it will have some impact on future cultivation, it will not have too much impact given the status and position we have achieved now."

"If we can win this challenge, we will definitely receive a large amount of resources, just like last time, and our ranking will rise by leaps and bounds."

"From any perspective, depleting the resource reserves is a beneficial thing!"

When Lin Xiuyuan left the back mountain, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, and soon he made up his mind.

However, this action does have some impact on the overall practice at this stage.

However, it is absolutely necessary. If he can win this duel, the benefits he will gain will be enormous. His ranking will skyrocket, and his disciple rewards will likely rise to the top tier. Similar to the last boost, it will be a leap forward!

Even if he loses, his cultivation has increased rapidly over the past ten years, which is enough to roughly, or even possibly, reach the advanced stage of cultivation.

The cultivation of a minor realm generally takes twenty or thirty years to accumulate magical power. For a cultivator with such poor aptitude as him, it would probably take about thirty-four years.

If we don't take into account the time required to break through the bottleneck, that's roughly the case.

For example, a prodigy like Wang Qiuhe was able to complete a minor cultivation stage of Foundation Establishment in less than twenty years.

The reason she hasn't broken through for so long is simply because she's been consolidating her foundation, preparing for the Golden Core stage in the future. This only delays her progress by one or two decades. Breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage is really not difficult for these single-spiritual-root geniuses.

Therefore, with the help of accumulating a large amount of resources, Lin Xiuyuan achieved a cultivation speed that was comparable to those of these geniuses.

Excluding the time spent on breakthroughs, it takes about twenty years to accumulate enough magical power to reach a minor realm.

Therefore, if one can successfully raise their cultivation level to the late-stage high level within ten years, even if there is a shortage of resources later, being in the sect will not cause too much trouble.

By then, he should be preparing to break through to the Purple Mansion stage, and this will be a good opportunity for him to settle down and reflect.

Once Lin Xiuyuan had made up his mind, he turned his escape light and headed straight for the main peak.

The competition just ended a few days ago, and the Deacon Hall was not yet ready to allocate resources. It is only now that they are gradually being distributed.

Lin Xiuyuan gave up participating in the third round of the competition, but he passed the second round and his ranking rose to 298th!

However, the rewards for the competition are not high; only the top fifty receive high rewards. Most people participate in order to improve their ranking on the main peak and thus increase their annual resource salary level.

However, the rewards for the top 300 have been upgraded, significantly more so than last time, including two bottles of high-grade Yangfa Pills and 500 contribution points.

The main improvement came from the ranking of the main peak.

As expected, Lin Xiuyuan passed the second round of the Deacon Hall's ranking, and his current ranking on the main peak has entered the top 500, reaching 478th!

The resources have also been upgraded, and since they are distributed in one go, they are quite abundant.

There were five bottles of high-grade Yangfa Pills, two thousand contribution points, and three five-hundred-year-old rare herbs.

This will allow the existing resource reserves to increase slightly again.

He now has over nine thousand, nearly ten thousand contribution points, as well as eighteen five-hundred-year-old rare and precious herbs, all suitable for Foundation Establishment stage cultivation.

In addition, there were dozens of bottles of various high-grade Yangfa Dan and high-grade Jinyuan Dan, while the former numbered less than twenty.

There are also some, less than ten plants, that are rare and precious materials that are two or three hundred years old, worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.

As for the talismans he carries, he has more than 150.

These talismans were originally intended to be kept in stock, but since the upcoming battle is so important, and the purple light of the three secret talismans will soon be overflowing.

These are the Heavenly Wind Spirit Talisman, Heavenly Ice Spirit Talisman, and Rock Shield Spirit Talisman. Once these three talismans are filled with purple light, their power will increase significantly, and they will become the main battle talismans.

Therefore, there is no need to hoard so many talismans. In the future, they will be replaced with the three types of spirit talismans that are full of purple light.

Naturally, the immediate priority is to do everything possible to improve one's cultivation within the next ten years, in preparation for the grand competition!

Basically, these resources need to be exchanged. Once you reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment, the quality of the spiritual items needed to aid your cultivation will naturally need to be improved.

Once you reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment, only rare and precious materials that are five hundred years old and high-grade elixirs can bring about good results.

After receiving his reward from the main peak's deacon hall, Lin Xiuyuan headed straight for Pingshan City.

After arriving in Pingshan City, Lin Xiuyuan went to Wanbaolou and stayed there for an hour before coming out.

Exchange for a large quantity of rare and precious materials aged 500 years, as well as high-grade elixirs!

At this moment, Lin Xiuyuan had less than fifty spirit talismans left on him, all of which were perfected fire dragon spirit talismans and wood spirit talismans.

Including the tens of thousands of spirit stones he had on him, as well as other rare and precious materials and low- to mid-grade pills that were two or three hundred years old, he used them all to exchange for the rest.

This batch of resources is enough to support ultra-high-speed cultivation for almost ten years!

Just as Lin Xiuyuan was preparing to return to the main peak to cultivate and prepare for battle.

The jade token at his waist rang at that moment.

Lin Xiuyuan picked it up and looked at it. His expression became somewhat inscrutable. After pondering for a moment, he quickly walked out of Pingshan City.
