Chapter 246: Chapter 187: Double Lifespan, Spirit Ascension Technique
Based on the description above,
at the Entry-Level, it was already comparable to an ordinary Celestial Grade Magic.
If cultivated to Minor Achievement, it would rival a top-tier Celestial Grade Magic!
’If I could cultivate it to Great Success, the power would be truly unimaginable…’
Li Chang’an marveled.
These two types of Magic were exactly what he needed.
After all, he was just a Loose Cultivator with a weak foundation. The best Magic he had mastered before was only Top Grade.
It was fine for dealing with other Loose Cultivators, but it fell short when facing the Celestial Prides from Great Noble Families or Sects.
However,
among the many types of Magic he currently possessed, the Small Yi Mu Sword Array was something of an anomaly.
Although this Sword Array was only Top Grade, it allowed him to fight opponents of a higher tier.
Li Chang’an suspected that it might be a fragmented version of a much more powerful Sword Array.
’This Cyan Wood Divine Light and Ancient Wood Divine Armor should also give me the ability to fight above my tier, but unfortunately, I’m still missing an Escape Technique.’
Li Chang’an was happy, but he also felt a tinge of regret.
His Five Elements Escape Technique was actually still sufficient. Even among Foundation Establishment Cultivators, a Top Grade Escape Technique was considered quite good.
After all, Escape Techniques were rare to begin with, and finding one that suited you was even rarer.
But… he still hoped to obtain a better one.
’Oh well, I’ll just have to leave it to fate.’
Li Chang’an temporarily pushed the thought aside.
He firmly committed the details of these two types of Magic to memory, planning to find time to practice them later.
Then, he moved on to inspect the contents of the final scroll.
The moment his Divine Sense probed it, Li Chang’an’s entire body jolted. Excitement surged through him once more, for he had finally found what he had been waiting for.
“The Spirit Ascension Technique!”
The final section within the Wooden Scroll.
It recorded the Spirit Ascension Technique!
According to its description,
the strength of a Cultivator’s Spiritual Root was related to their innate “Spirit Charm.”
As long as one possessed a single wisp of Spirit Charm,
they could sense the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power and become a Cultivator.
The more Spirit Charm one had, the more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power they could sense, and the faster their cultivation speed would be.
’So in Ancient Times, Spiritual Roots were classified by Spirit Charm.’
Li Chang’an was completely absorbed.
This was the first time he had ever heard of this concept of Spirit Charm.
According to the records,
an Inferior Spirit Root Cultivator had between one and ten wisps of Spirit Charm.
A Low Grade Spirit Root Cultivator had between eleven and twenty wisps of Spirit Charm.
Soon, Li Chang’an found a type of Magic within called the “Spirit Testing Technique.”
Learning this Magic would allow him to see how much Spirit Charm he possessed.
This Magic wasn’t difficult.
In less than a quarter of an hour, he had mastered it.
’I wonder how many wisps of Spirit Charm I have?’
Curious, Li Chang’an immediately cast the Spirit Testing Technique.
A moment later,
he could vaguely see eleven faint, drifting wisps of Spiritual Light inside his body.
This was Spirit Charm!
’Eleven wisps of Spirit Charm. That just barely meets the threshold for a Low Grade Spirit Root.’
’It seems my Spiritual Root really is at the very bottom of the Low Grade Spirit Roots!’
Li Chang’an lamented.
His Spiritual Root was indeed only slightly better than an Inferior Spirit Root.
No wonder his cultivation speed had always been so slow. Without his many fortuitous encounters, he would probably be worse off than Xu Fugui and Chu Daniu right now!
Fortunately, he now had the Spirit Ascension Technique!
The requirements for this Magic Gate were just as the Cultivator on the White Bone Ship had said.
It required a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root!
’I just need to win over a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root with my own conviction. Once it acknowledges me, I can bind it to myself and enter a special state of symbiosis.’
Symbiosis?
Li Chang’an was even more surprised when he read this part.
A symbiotic relationship between a Cultivator and a Spirit Plant was truly bizarre.
However,
as long as it could improve his Spiritual Root, there was nothing he wouldn’t accept.
According to the description, after achieving a state of symbiosis, the Cultivator needed to devote themself to nurturing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root.
As the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root grew, it would intercept Spirit Charm from the world and channel it back into the Cultivator, increasing the number of their Spirit Charm wisps!
This was the Spirit Ascension Technique!
After he finished reading,
Li Chang’an pondered for a long time.
For him, nothing else was a problem. The biggest issue remained the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root.
This type of Spirit Plant was incredibly hard to find; even a Golden Core Master wasn’t guaranteed to find one.
’That Spirit Plant of the Withered Wood Cliff Master… could it really be a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root?’
Li Chang’an recalled the many rumors about the Withered Wood Cliff Master.
He had a feeling.
The Withered Wood Cliff Master’s strange Withered Vine was very likely a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root!
The reason he suffered a backlash was that he hadn’t persuaded the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root with his conviction, but had tried to subjugate it by force.
’Unfortunately, that guy has now entered the Black Dragon Mountain Range. No one knows if he’s dead or alive.’
Li Chang’an sighed.
If he had known the details of the Spirit Ascension Technique earlier,
he could have made a deal with the Withered Wood Cliff Master while he was still around.
But now, it was too late for any of that.
’I’ll just have to ask Luo Baitong to keep an eye out for news about the Withered Wood Cliff Master, and while he’s at it, have him look for all sorts of strange and unusual Spirit Plants.’
Aside from that,
Li Chang’an had once heard that the Red Leaf Valley Mu Family, one of the Seven Great Noble Families, seemed to possess a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root.
The Mu Family was famous for cultivating Spirit Plants. With a legacy of Tier Three Spirit Plants in their clan, it wouldn’t be surprising if they managed to acquire a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root.
But such a Treasure was too rare. The Mu Family would never sell it to a Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator like Li Chang’an.
Not unless he could one day reach the Golden Core realm and gain the right to trade with the Mu Family as an equal.
’A Heaven and Earth Spirit Root concerns my entire path of cultivation. In the years to come, I should invest more energy in this matter.’
Li Chang’an thought to himself.
A moment later,
he put away the Wooden Scroll and let out a long breath.
All in all, he had obtained basically everything he wanted from this trip to the Secret Realm.
’These gains were indeed worthy of the great Auspicious Trigram.’
Li Chang’an was very satisfied and planned to switch his Cultivation Technique as soon as he returned.
