Chapter 123: Sorting out the harvest, Danyang Peak Master’s generous welcome gift
[Special Talent: Fairy Lotus Embryo]
[Effect 1. Breath of the Immortal: Increases the upper limit of spiritual power by ten times. It can greatly increase the speed of spiritual power recovery and purify the spiritual power within a radius of 100 meters.]
[Effect 2. Soul Lotus Embryo: Increases the strength of the soul tenfold. Can condense soul petals for movement, defense, attack, etc.... Can store magic weapons in the soul and slowly strengthen them.]
Lu Chen looked at himself obtaining the 'Fairy Lotus Embryo' through the blessing of the Great Dao.
I immediately realized how terrifying this blessing was.
Apart from anything else, the tenfold increase in the upper limit of spiritual power of the 'Breath of the Immortal Spirit' alone has widened the gap between Lu Chen and cultivators of the same level to an almost terrifying degree.
You know, after five baptisms of heavenly tribulations, his original spiritual power limit has been raised to '1.5 million points'.
Add to that the increase in cultivation brought by the 'Nine-Shining Spirit Pearl'.
The upper limit of his basic spiritual power alone has reached 1.55 million points.
And after being strengthened by this 'Fairy Breath'.
His spiritual power limit immediately reached an astonishing '15.5 million points'.
Compared to the pitiful 100,000 points of spiritual power limit of an ordinary ninth-grade human foundation-building cultivator.
Lu Chen's spiritual power cultivation in the foundation-building period is more than 150 times that of an ordinary foundation-building period.
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, with so much spiritual power to help.
Lu Chen can not only suppress other Foundation Establishment cultivators with his pure cultivation.
He can rely on this pure advantage in cultivation to perform many magic techniques that cannot be performed during the Foundation Establishment Period directly during the Foundation Establishment Period.
And this is just an improvement on the basic attributes of 'Fairy Breath'.
You should know that in addition to increasing the upper limit of spiritual power, the breath of immortals also has the effect of purifying the surrounding spiritual power.
At first, Lu Chen was not quite sure what this so-called purification meant.
But he soon understood.
This is not purification at all, this is clearly a special area under the guise of purification! The so-called purification is to transform all the spiritual energy around into spiritual energy that can be absorbed by oneself.
Such an effect can not only greatly improve Lu Chen's cultivation speed.
It can also allow Lu Chen to always be in an "advantageous position".
Its own strength will not be affected by the environment.
For example, if an ordinary cultivator enters an ancient forbidden area.
Either because of the special environment or the properties of their spiritual power, they are unable to absorb the highly polluted spiritual power in the forbidden area very well.
But Lu Chen, who possesses the 'breath of immortals', is different.
He can automatically transform spiritual power within a radius of 100 meters in a passive state.
No matter what the attributes of these spiritual powers are, and no matter whether these spiritual powers are contaminated.
All of it can be transformed into spiritual power for him to use.
In this way, Lu Chen can maintain his peak strength in almost any environment.
Needless to say, how important this is for a monk.
And this is just the effect of the 'Fairy Breath' in the 'Fairy Lotus Embryo'.
Another effect, 'Soul Lotus Embryo', is also very useful to it.
In Lu Chen's perception, the so-called soul lotus embryo means that his own soul has undergone some qualitative change.
He could clearly see a special soul lotus lying quietly in his sea of consciousness, replacing the magic weapon, the Meditation Lotus Platform, which he had originally exchanged from Gu Qie.
What made Lu Chen feel strange was that this magical treasure, the Meditation Lotus Platform, disappeared in his soul for some reason.
In this regard, Lu Chen felt that this might be because when he first obtained the blessing of the Great Dao, the "Soul Lotus Embryo" part was not included.
But I don’t know what exactly happened in this blessing of the avenue.
So much so that the Heavenly Dao seemed to bless the magic weapon, the Meditation Lotus Platform, which was originally purified by the ancient Qie.
It was directly transformed into a brand new blessing from the Great Dao.
So actually speaking, the blessing of the Great Dao and the Immortal Lotus Embryo are actually two blessings in essence.
One is the breath of immortality, the other is the lotus embryo of the soul.
Lu Chen felt that this was the essence of the 'Fairy Lotus Embryo'.
The reason why he made such a judgment was because he was before starting the breakthrough in the foundation-building stage.
We have investigated what changes have occurred to people who have received the blessings of the Great Dao in history.
Among these people, one person received a blessing called "Fairy Body".
The effect of this blessing is very similar to the effect of the 'Fairy Breath' in the Fairy Lotus Embryo.
This made Lu Chen speculate that his fairy lotus embryo was most likely the result of the fusion of two blessings.
The 'Soul Lotus Embryo' that was born from the Meditation Lotus Platform gifted by Gu Qie is not as direct in effect as the 'Breath of the Immortal'.
But Lu Chen also knew how amazing the effect it contained was.
Not to mention the tenfold increase in soul strength, the "soul petals" at the back alone shocked Lu Chen.
'It can condense soul petals for movement, defense, and attack...'
Although now he can only condense three soul petals due to his cultivation level.
But even with these three soul petals, he could feel how much they improved him.
In front of the cave on Danyang Peak, Lu Chen used a soul petal.
The next second, his body instantly turned into countless petals and disappeared on the spot.
When he appeared again, he was already a hundred meters away.
One soul petal allowed him to teleport a hundred meters.
This is because his current soul strength and cultivation level are not high enough to sustain a longer distance.
If his cultivation could be raised to the Golden Core Stage.
By then, his cultivation and spiritual strength may be able to support him to reach a thousand miles away in an instant.
This method of movement, which is almost like "shrinking the earth into an inch", not only greatly improved Lu Chen's ability to escape.
It also greatly improves his attack ability.
Not to mention that the soul petals also have the effect of defending against attacks from the soul.
It can be said that just one "blessing from the Great Dao" has allowed Lu Chen's strength to reach a radical level.
If he were to meet Hao Fu, a monk in the Fake Dan period, again now.
Then Lu Chen was confident that he could defeat him head-on without using the Outer Sword and the Great Dao Fragment (Return to Heaven).
Even the Black Rock King who was comparable to a Jindan stage cultivator encountered in the joint entrance examination of three schools.
Lu Chen felt that even if he was defeated, he would definitely find a way to escape from him.
Even though he was only at the foundation-building stage, Lu Chen felt that he already had the initial effect of "I am invincible without the golden elixir."
The effect of a first-grade Dao Immortal Base is so terrifying.
In addition to the blessing of the Great Dao, Lu Chen also received another good reward.
That is the second innate magical power that awakens after completing the third novice mission... three inches of time.
[Innate magical power: Three Inches of Time]
[Rank: First Realm (1%)]
[Effect: After using it, you can predict the target's situation three seconds in the future. The greater the difference in cultivation, the more targets, and the longer the duration, the more spiritual power is required to use the magical power. ]
Three Inches of Time, a true art of time and space.
And its effect can be described as simple and crude.
Knowing three seconds in advance would give Lu Chen a lot of room for maneuver.
Because this not only allows Lu Chen to know the enemy's movements in advance.
Even when the level of this magical power is improved in the future and he can predict more time.
He might even be able to rely on the power of Qingliantong to copy the enemy's techniques that have not been used yet.
To the extent of being unexpected.
However, the prerequisite for all this is that there is still extra space under his Qinglian Pupil to copy magic.
After this heavenly tribulation, Lu Chen discovered that there wasn’t much space left in his Green Lotus Pupil to copy other spells…
[Magic Power: Divine Thunder]
[Effect: A special thunderbolt that contains a trace of the power of heavenly tribulation, which ordinary people cannot resist.]
Divine Sky Thunder, this is a special magical power that Lu Chen copied using the Green Lotus Pupil.
It was also the result of him taking the risk of using the Green Lotus Pupil when he was transcending the tribulation before.
Because they were worried that using the Divine Thunder would cause the same horrible side effects as using the Outer Sword before.
Therefore, Lu Chen did not dare to experiment with the effect of the Divine Heavenly Thunder for the time being.
But it doesn’t matter, because the cooldown time for his first copy, ‘Ancient Tomb’, has long ended.
That’s because he has been busy building his foundation during this period.
Otherwise he would have been able to re-enter that copy long ago.
Although Lu Chen is not particularly interested in the things produced in this copy at the moment.
However, the special feature of the copy that allows infinite resurrection means that he is destined to be able to experiment with many things in the copy that he dare not try in reality.
Therefore, in a sense, the copy is the best place for him to test his own strength.
Besides, Lu Chen felt that the three copies he unlocked might not be as simple as he imagined.
For example, the second copy, 'Ancient Sword Tomb'.
The reason why he could only reach the third floor of Jiange at that time was not because there was no place to go afterwards.
Rather, it was because the area behind was obscured by a black fog.
To him before, the black mist meant death if touched.
But for him who now has mastered the 'Breath of the Immortal', the black fog may no longer be able to prevent him from exploring.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen suddenly thought of it.
Isn't it that the 'Fairy Breath' that can restrain the strange black fog appeared at a little too timely? In this world... is there really such a coincidence?
Before Lu Chen could think too much, three figures fell from the sky and came to his side.
Among these three people, Lu Chen was very familiar with Gu Liqing and Jing Gong.
But the other woman, who looked charming and mature, with a broad mind that even her loose Taoist robe could not cover, was quite unfamiliar to Lu Chen.
However, after seeing the token on the other party's waist and the 'three-pattern Qingyun robe' he was wearing, which belonged exclusively to the leader of Qingyun Sect, Lu Chen quickly guessed the other party's identity.
"Disciple Lu Chen pays homage to Danyang Peak Master Luo Lan and Qingyun Sect Master Yunqi."
Hearing this, Gu Liqing just nodded, but Du Youlan beside him said in surprise: "Huh? You actually know me, haven't you just joined the sect not long ago?"
Lu Chen raised his head and replied, "...I saw the token on the master's waist and the clothes on his body, so I knew the master's identity."
Du Youlan looked at the token on her waist, then at her slightly tight clothes, and only then did she react.
"Yeah, I forgot all that."
After saying that, Du Youlan came to Lu Chen and started to circle around him curiously.
At such a close distance, Lu Chen immediately smelled the delicate fragrance of hibiscus flowers.
Lu Chen felt a little uncomfortable being surrounded and stared at by a mature older sister.
However, due to the other party's status as a powerful Yuanying stage master, he did not dare to say much.
Not long after, Du Youlan finished her observation and said to Lu Chen curiously, "Is this the body of an immortal? It does look different from that of an ordinary person."
Hearing that Du Youlan seemed to have misunderstood his blessing, Lu Chen didn't think of explaining.
"Alright, Junior Sister Du, Lu Chen just finished his breakthrough, let him have a good rest and stop asking questions."
Du Youlan turned her head and gave Gu Liqing a displeased look.
"No, I am a disciple of Danyang Peak. What's wrong with me, the peak master, taking a look? It won't hurt to take a look."
“…”
"Alright, Senior Sister Du, I think what the head brother said is right. We old guys shouldn't stay here any longer. Let's give Xiao Lu some time to consolidate his cultivation."
Seeing Jing Gong and Gu Liqing say this, Du Youlan curled her lips, then took out a medicine from her storage bag and handed it to Lu Chen.
"There are twenty Heavenly Jade Pills in here. Take them. They can ensure that there will be no hidden injuries on your body."
"Remember to eat them. Don't save them for me. I can have as many of these pills as I want. It's okay for you to eat them as snacks."
Hearing Du Youlan's words, Lu Chen looked at the medicine in his hand curiously.
【Name: Tianyudan】
【Quality: Perfect】
[Effect: Can restore a large amount of spiritual power, qi and blood in a short period of time, nourish the monk's soul to a certain extent, improve the monk's physique, can be taken multiple times]
The Heavenly Jade Pill can actually nourish the soul of a cultivator? !
Lu Chen was secretly surprised when he saw the effect of the Tianyu Pill.
Because at his level, he knew very well how scarce elixirs that could nourish a cultivator's soul were.
It is no exaggeration to say that if this Tianyu Pill is sold outside the Qingyun Sect.
One might be able to exchange for an ordinary magic weapon.
This is because many cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage are unable to break through to the Golden Core stage.
A very important reason is that their souls are not strong enough to condense the immortal foundation in their bodies into pills.
Therefore, for them, Tianyudan, an elixir that can nourish the soul of a cultivator, is equivalent to increasing their success rate in forming a pill in disguise.
Not to mention that this Tianyu Pill also has the effects of "Gathering Spirit Pill" and "Qi and Blood Pill".
If one could take one pill at a critical moment, it might be able to help the cultivator turn the tide in desperate situations.
It is no exaggeration to describe the Tianyu Pill as being worth a fortune.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen was really reluctant to eat it.
Because for him now, this pill can only speed up the recovery of his spiritual power and blood.
But right now, there was no one in Qingyun Sect who could threaten him, so there was no need to waste such a Tianyu Pill.
As if she had guessed Lu Chen's thoughts, Du Youlan patted her chest and said arrogantly, "I told you that you can take as many pills as you want. I have plenty here."
"By the way, I heard from your master that he seemed to have been refining Peiyuan Pills. I just happened to have some for fun, so I'll give them to you now."
Having said that, Du Youlan didn't wait for Lu Chen to refuse, and stuffed another medicine bottle into his hand with a domineering look on her face.
【Name: Peiyuan Dan】
【Quality: Perfect】
[Effect: After taking it, you can gain 1,000 experience points. You can take at most one pill per day.]
Lu Chen looked at the medicine in his hand blankly, as if he didn't expect Du Youlan to be so generous.
After Du Youlan thought about it, she felt that these pills were not enough.
He started rummaging in his storage bag again.
"Come, come, take this bottle of Concentration Pill as well. It can help you enter the state of cultivation as quickly as possible and prevent the appearance of inner demons to a certain extent."
"And this Golden Beetle Blood Pill, it can strengthen your blood circulation to a certain extent and slowly improve your physical condition."
"And this one, this one is also good, never mind, I'll give this one to you too..."
Not long after, Lu Chen found that his hands were filled with various medicines containing medicinal pills.
If any one of these pills were taken out, many casual cultivators would fight over it.
For a moment, Lu Chen seemed to see the golden light emanating from behind Du Youlan.
How can this be the leader of Danyang Peak? This is simply a female Bodhisattva descended to earth!
“Ahem, alright Junior Sister Du, if you take it down again, are you going to give away some of the elixirs that were supposed to be given to the sect as well?”
"At least leave some for the elders from other peaks. Many of the medicinal materials for the elixirs here were found with great effort by the elders from other peaks, right?"
Hearing this, Du Youlan said confidently: "I made the elixir myself, who can I give it to?"
"Besides, my peak finally produced a talent, so what's wrong with me giving him some more pills!"
“…”
Faced with the powerful Du Youlan, Gu Liqing really didn't know what to say for a moment.
It is true that these pills were made by you yourself.
However, many of the medicinal materials used to refine pills were also brought by other people in the sect.
But Du Youlan is not completely unreasonable after all.
She looked at the pills she had given to Lu Chen and felt that they should be enough for him to use for a while.
So he said, "Okay, okay, I will listen to you for now, Senior Brother, and I won't give you the other pills for now."
However, not giving the elixir does not mean that Du Youlan will not give other things.
Her eyes rolled, and after rummaging through her storage bag, she took out a small purple alchemy furnace.
Seeing this alchemy furnace, the head of the Jing Palace, who had been smiling cheerfully, suddenly changed his expression and said hurriedly, "Senior Sister, isn't this the magic weapon I asked you to help me refine? You are going to give it to Xiao Lu!"
Du Youlan rolled her eyes at him and said, "With your talent, it would be a waste to use such a good furnace. What's wrong with me giving it to Xiao Lu? Do you have any objection?"
Jing Gong: “…”
He wanted to express his opinion, but he felt that if he really said it, Du Youlan would probably let him know on the spot what the iron fist of a Nascent Soul cultivator was.
Although Du Youlan is an alchemist, she is not good at fighting.
But Jing Gong is also an alchemist, and only an alchemist in the Golden Core stage.
Du Youlan treated him like Zhang Fei eating bean sprouts, with both hands in her grasp!
So I feel a little reluctant.
But in the end, Jing Gong had to watch helplessly as the alchemy furnace that should have belonged to him was given to Lu Chen by Du Youlan as a token of his appreciation.
After doing all this, Du Youlan patted Lu Chen's shoulder with satisfaction and said happily: "Work hard. Whether our Danyang Peak can become the number one peak in Qingyun in the future depends entirely on you!"
The hand that takes from others is short-handed, and the mouth that eats from others is soft-hearted.
Lu Chen, who had just received such a large welcome gift from Du Youlan, immediately replied: "Disciple Lu Chen, thank you Master Du Feng for the reward."
"Hahaha, you're welcome, you're welcome, it's just a small scene, these are just small scenes!"
"Wait for me to go back and study it carefully, and then I will prepare some great gifts for you kid."
"Don't think it's a waste. We at Danyang Peak don't have anything else but plenty of elixirs and spirit stones!"
"By the way, ask your master to arrange for you to find out what forces my Danyang Peak has in the mortal world, and ask him to give you the richest ones. After all, you are now a true disciple of my peak, and you are qualified to take over some of my sect's industries."
"Don't worry, these forces are easy to manage. If they encounter trouble, they will naturally come to the sect to find you. If you can solve it, then solve it. If you can't, then find your master and ask him to go down the mountain to solve it."
Jing Gong, who was standing by, heard this and said unhappily, "Senior Sister, I am Xiao Lu's nominal master after all. How come you say I am just an errand boy?"
Du Youlan glared at him and threatened, "Why, you have an objection?"
Jing Gong shrank his head, obviously very afraid of Du Youlan.
Therefore, even though he felt a little aggrieved, he finally replied: "No problem, I have no problem at all, as long as you are happy."
"Hahaha! That's more like it!"
Du Youlan glanced at the cave behind Lu Chen and immediately slapped her forehead and said, "I think your cave is not bad, why not give it to Xiao Lu? It just so happens that he also successfully survived the heavenly tribulation here, so this place is obviously meant for him."
"What! This cave is also for free!"
"Why, you have another opinion?"
“No, no…”
Lu Chen couldn't help laughing when he saw Jing Gong being tightly controlled by Du Youlan.
Because he felt that this scene didn't look like the relationship between a senior sister and a junior brother at all.
Instead, it's more like the relationship between an older sister and her younger brother.
The Qingyun Sect is indeed different from other places.
For many disciples of Qingyun Sect, this place is not only the sect, but also their home.
The disciples within a sect are not so-called fellow disciples, but family members.
But Lu Chen's good mood did not last long.
Because he quickly noticed the main quest he had just unlocked.
[Main Quest: Kill the Immortal Evil]
[Task requirements: …]
