Chapter 104: Passerby Affected by the Cultivation Novel (10)

After a closer look, she saw that most of the stones were low-grade spirit stones, with a few scattered mid-grade spirit stones among them. Jiang Yue swung her hoe and started digging, laughing as she dug, "One spirit stone! Two spirit stones!"

Jiang Yue stopped after digging up 5,000 spirit stones. The feeling of picking up money was really great. Jiang Yue had 8888 scan the area with the most concentrated energy. There might be spirit crystals in the center of the spirit stone mine. One spirit crystal is worth tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones. It can be said that spirit crystals are needed to create a spirit stone mine. After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Yue decided to dig towards the center from now on.

Having dug this far, Jiang Yue decided to stop for now. Her immediate priority was to return to her sect and go to the market to buy a cultivation technique. Her cultivation level had stagnated for a year, and although she hadn't advanced at all during that time in the mine, she had mastered all the spells she knew, including some commonly used ones. Once she bought the technique, her cultivation level would rise, and with the abundant spiritual energy, Jiang Yue estimated that she would reach the Qi Refining stage in just a few years.

After reaching the mine, Jiang Yue carefully filled in the hole, took the ore, and went to the surface. Once on the surface, she spent spirit stones to hitch a ride back to the sect. When they arrived at the market, Jiang Yue got off with the crowd. Many people had a big meal at the market before returning to the sect. She found a quiet place to change her clothes and went straight to the cultivation technique pavilion. The first thing she did was exchange for the complete "Five Elements Technique".

After careful selection, she finally chose a manual called "Five Elements Escape Technique". This manual cost a full two thousand spirit stones, but Jiang Yue felt it was worth it. After all, whether she could win or not was another matter. Mastering her escape techniques was the most important thing.

Then she spent another 300 spirit stones to buy a storage bag of the lowest level. Although Jiang Yue had her own space, she still needed a storage bag to cover her tracks. As a result, she only had 2,200 spirit stones left after digging them up.

Jiang Yue didn't stop shopping. Instead, she spent another 500 spirit stones to buy a book called "Complete Guide to Qi Refining Spells". This book contains more than 30 common Qi Refining spells, which is definitely worth the money for her.

I have 1,700 spirit stones left. I originally wanted to buy a book called "Basic Explanation of Weapon Refining", but the mine doesn't have the facilities for weapon refining. So I spent 200 spirit stones to buy a book called "Encyclopedia of the Cultivation World". You can tell what this book is about just by looking at the title. It contains introductions to some top forces in the cultivation world, introductions to some spiritual herbs and ores, and so on.

With the last 1,500 spirit stones, he spent 800 spirit stones to buy a book on "Basic Talisman Making," and the remaining 700 spirit stones to buy a set of basic tools and talisman paper. After spending all the spirit stones, he returned to the sect. Back at the sect, he looked at the contribution points he had accumulated and realized that he couldn't exchange them for a new magic robe. So he had to exchange them for a spell that wasn't in the spell encyclopedia.

Two days passed quickly, and Jiang Yue returned to the mine with the enforcement disciples. The first month was the same as before; she did nothing else. Jiang Yue diligently mined for a month, breaking through to the fourth level of Qi Refining. In the second month, she resumed her spirit stone mining career. After a year, she had accumulated about 70,000 spirit stones, even after using many to accelerate her cultivation. Now, Jiang Yue's cultivation had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, and she estimated she could break through to the seventh level today.

Sure enough, when she cultivated that night, she broke through without any barrier. Now, Jiang Yue was a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator. After consolidating her realm, she went to sleep in her tent. The next morning, she cultivated for two hours, then practiced drawing talismans and spells for two hours each. Then, she started mining again that night. A year had passed, and she was getting closer to finding spirit crystals. As Jiang Yue's realm improved, mining became easier and easier. She estimated that she would be able to find spirit crystals in a few more years, at which point she could run away.

A few more years passed, and she was only one shovel away from the spirit crystal. However, Jiang Yue did not swing the shovel because she was afraid that digging the spirit crystal would cause the mine to collapse. In the past few months, Jiang Yue dug several escape routes. During this time, she went to the market and bought several large storage bags. She transferred all the miscellaneous items in her space into the storage bags, while her space was filled with spirit stones.

Now she has spirit stones but can't spend them, and there isn't even an auction house nearby. It's time to change maps. Jiang Yue's current stats are as follows:

Character Panel

Name: Jiang Yue

[Spiritual Roots: Metal, Fire, Wood]

[Cultivation Technique: Five Elements Technique, Mastery Level 23/100%]

[Realm: Qi Refining Level 9: 100% Physical Body: Qi Refining Peak]

[Pseudo-supernatural abilities: Increased absorption of spiritual energy, constant concealment]

Jiang Yue's overall combat strength is among the top in the Qi Refining stage. Now she just needs a Foundation Establishment Pill to establish her foundation. The quality of her spiritual power is also not good enough. She also lacks a cultivation technique like the protagonist's that can condense spiritual power. The protagonist has a cultivation technique called "Three Revolutions Foundation Establishment Technique", which can condense spiritual power three times, but this book is in a secret realm.

Jiang Yue had asked the bookstore owner in the market for help last year, but he didn't have this kind of cultivation method. He also didn't know if the Foundation Establishment chapter of the Five Elements Technique had arrived yet. With this in mind, Jiang Yue packed her belongings and set off for the market. Now that her cultivation level was high, she didn't need anyone else and could fly away on her sword.

Jiang Yue still remembers the day she flew into the sky on her own. She was so excited that she couldn't stop smiling. She played for a whole day. Her legs were weak when she returned to the mine. Thinking of this, Jiang Yue smiled. The speed of reaching the Qi Refining stage was very fast. She arrived at the market in no time. She didn't wander around. She went straight to the book pavilion.

As soon as Jiang Yue entered, the shopkeeper recognized her and personally came to greet her: "Go, brew a pot of the finest tribute tea!" The shopkeeper led Jiang Yue to a private room and then instructed the servant.

"Brother Qian, the Foundation Establishment stage cultivation method of the Five Elements Technique that you requested has been delivered. Do you still need the method for refining cultivation that you mentioned last time?" After drinking tea for a while, Manager Zhang politely asked Jiang Yue.

"Really? Brother Zhang is incredibly powerful. I wonder what kind of technique it is and how much it costs?" Jiang Yue deliberately changed her voice, making it sound like a gruff man.

Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand and took out five jade slips. He pointed to them and introduced them to Jiang Yue: "The first one is the Five Elements Technique, a Foundation Establishment stage cultivation method that can be cultivated to the peak of Foundation Establishment. The second one is the Five Revolutions Foundation Establishment Technique, a cultivation method for condensing spiritual energy that Brother Qian needs. It can also be cultivated to the peak of Foundation Establishment. The third one is the Divine Eye of Illusion, a special cultivation method. When fully cultivated, it can see through the flaws in formations and illusions. The fourth one is the Complete Collection of Foundation Establishment Spells. I won't say much about this one. It contains all the commonly used spells for Foundation Establishment."
