Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 58 Mid-term
Li Zhen knew that the most cost-effective way for him to practice was to increase his practice speed by swallowing auxiliary elixirs through the Dragon Heart Space. This practice speed was many times faster than daily hard practice.

Pills cannot be purchased in the fairyland, but in another world, as long as you have spirit stones, you can buy pills.

The reason why he did not buy elixirs in another world was that his foundation was too shallow.

After he became a talisman maker and publicly sold some of the talismans he drew, it would be natural for him to buy elixirs.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the market town in the other world continues to exist safely and is not destroyed by the war between the two forces.

Therefore, when Li Zhen did not have elixirs to swallow, he would practice for an hour each at school and at home. The time from after school in the afternoon to before dinner was when he would practice swordsmanship at the Yijian Hall.

In the evening, he planned to spend more time practicing the 'Black Iron Body', which had a significant effect on improving combat power.

The rest of the time was spent reading classics. The classics available in the Yiqian Hall could greatly enrich his knowledge system.

Li Zhen focused his mind on the Dragon Heart Space. He had already sold two first-grade inferior magic weapons in exchange for credit points, and he would not sell first-grade inferior magic weapons again for a long time.

One or two first-grade low-quality magic weapons can be explained away by luck, but using more magic weapons will definitely arouse suspicion from other cultivators.

He made up his mind and absorbed all the first-grade inferior magic weapons into the Dragon Heart Space except for those he kept for himself.

There are dozens of magical weapons here. Although they are only first-level low-grade ones, they are great in number.

He checked his information on the identity bracelet and found that only his fire spiritual root talent was increased to 20 and his earth spiritual root talent was increased to 16, and the rest remained unchanged.

He couldn't help but feel heartbroken. Although he knew that swallowing a first-level low-grade magic weapon would be a loss, he didn't expect the loss to be so great.

Originally, he thought that with dozens of first-level low-grade magic tools, he could use the quantity to upgrade a low-grade spiritual root to a medium-grade spiritual root, but the two low-grade spiritual roots of water 20 and gold 20 did not improve at all.

He let out a long sigh. The rest of the mid-grade magic tools in the Dragon Heart Space had to be kept for cultivation and must not be swallowed up by the Dragon Heart Space.

Instead, dozens of first-grade inferior magic weapons were swallowed up, making the Dragon Heart Space no longer as messy as before.

Li Zhen took out a first-grade medium-quality magic weapon and began to beat his body with it. At the same time, he practiced the "Black Iron Body" and slowly absorbed the gold essence from the first-grade medium-quality magic weapon.

This practice took a full three hours, during which he discovered the benefits of the 'primary nutritional supplement' for practicing body-building exercises.

As he practiced with a first-grade, mid-quality magic weapon, his physical energy consumption increased, and he originally would not have been able to persist for three hours.

But as long as the body is tired, drink a bottle of "primary nutritional supplement" and rest for a few minutes before practicing again.

In his retina, the number 'Flesh body: First level (33/100)' did not change until the end of three hours, when he felt the muscles and bones all over his body ringing.

'Physical body: First level (34/100)'. The number increased a bit, which also indicated that his physical training had reached the middle stage of the first level, which was equivalent to the strength of the middle stage of Qi training.

In addition, through these three hours of practice, it was also confirmed that the huge gains made in the last practice of 'Black Iron Body' were due to the influence of Dragon Heart on himself.

Li Zhen clenched his fists tightly, feeling the strong force in his hands.

Do not underestimate the improvement from 33 points to 34 points. This improvement is a small change in realm, which brings about a huge enhancement of body functions.

Of course, since there has been no actual combat yet, he can only estimate his own strength.

"It seems I have to find a chance to leave the city!" After reaching the middle stage of the first level of body refining, Li Zhen had greater confidence in his own safety, and the danger outside the city was reduced.

You should know that the monsters outside the city are all small and weak monsters. When there are fewer of them, even a cultivator in the early stage of Qi training can deal with them.

With many trump cards in his possession, he is much more dangerous than the monsters outside the city.

Principal Wang of No. 2 Middle School was looking at an application report. This was the application report sent by Teacher Zou, which was asking Li Zhen to participate in the selection for this school challenge.

A video was attached to the application report, which was the image of Li Zhen practicing basic swordsmanship in the battle room.

Principal Wang, who is in the late stage of Qi training, is able to become the principal of No. 2 Middle School. Needless to say, his vision is broad.

He could tell at a glance that Li Zhen's swordsmanship was at a high level. Not to mention the students, there were few cultivators in Yunfu County who could reach this level.

Principal Wang used his authority to retrieve Li Zhen's family information. He found that Li Zhen's family was ordinary, and the only thing worth noting was that he was funded by the Han family. But with the funding from the Han family, he could reach the level of mastery of elementary swordsmanship in just a few months. The Han family did not have this ability yet.

If the Han family really had this ability, they would have cultivated their own direct descendants long ago.

"Swordsmanship can make up for the lack of cultivation. It won't be a problem for Li Zhen to leap to a higher level in battle. If he is trained with emphasis, the remaining three months or so will allow him to further improve his cultivation.

The important thing about letting him enter the trials in the first year of junior high school is to gain experience in competitions. After another one or two years, he will be able to become a main player in No. 2 Middle School.

But he is too good, and the high school department of No. 2 Middle School may not be able to keep him!" Principal Wang muttered to himself.

The next day, Li Zhen went to school as usual. The school bus resumed running normally and he didn't have to walk anymore.

Sitting on the school bus, the severely damaged buildings on the streets were covered with partitions. Apart from these, it was almost impossible to tell that the city had suffered a serious attack.

No matter how high the status of the deceased person was, they were not indispensable to a city, and he did not want to be one of those unknown people.

During the break after two classes in the morning, Teacher Zou called Li Zhen out.

"Teacher Zou, where are we going?" Li Zhen asked when he saw Teacher Zou taking him towards the main office building.

"Principal Wang wants to see you. You are really good at hiding things. I don't even know how you practiced the great sword technique!" Teacher Zou answered as they walked.

If his injury hadn't healed yet, he would have wanted to have a fight with Li Zhen.

"Teacher Zou, you know it!" Li Zhen said with some surprise.

He immediately thought of the practice process in the school's battle room, and thought that it must have been at that time that he was discovered by Teacher Zou.

But there is nothing to hide. His great swordsmanship can only be attributed to his good talent in swordsmanship. The fairyland has seen all kinds of geniuses.

"No wonder you were able to deal with the monster that appeared in the classroom!" Teacher Zou exclaimed.

They had already arrived outside the principal's office. Teacher Zou went forward and knocked on the door. After getting consent, he took Li Zhen into the principal's office.

"Student Li Zhen, you have reached the second level of Qi training!" Principal Wang said in surprise, a gleam in his eyes.

There was a big gap between Principal Wang and Li Zhen in terms of cultivation, and he used a secret technique to see through Li Zhen's 'Qi Concealment Technique' at a glance.

Being able to cultivate to the second level of Qi training at this time, whether by taking medicinal pills or with the help of other external objects, at least proves that Li Zhen's spiritual roots are not lower than the inferior grade.

If it is a false spiritual root, even if it is given a large amount of cultivation resources, it will not be able to advance to the second level of Qi training in such a short time.

"I just had a lucky breakthrough in the past two days!" Li Zhen said modestly.

"I was originally worried about your cultivation. It seems that you are not only talented in swordsmanship, but also in cultivation. You are really a good seedling!" Principal Wang said with a smile.

He stood up from behind the table, walked to the sofa for guests, and waved to Teacher Zou and Li Zhen to sit down.

He personally took three cups, took out a tea box from the storage bag at his waist, and put a piece of tea in each cup.

"Principal, let me do it!" Although Teacher Zou was missing an arm, he took over the task of making tea.

Li Zhen looked at the cup in front of him curiously. He made a guess from Principal Wang's actions.

Spiritual tea is a luxury drink among cultivators, at least it is not accessible to cultivators in the early or middle stages of Qi training.

The water in the kettle was boiled, and suddenly spiritual energy overflowed. The water in the kettle was spiritual water, and its quality was not low.

When the spiritual water comes into contact with the spiritual tea leaves, green spiritual energy surges out of the spiritual tea leaves and merges with the spiritual water. The rising spiritual mist carries with it a strange tea fragrance.

Li Zhen just sniffed it and felt his mind was exceptionally clear.

"This is my treasure. It was picked from a first-grade premium tea tree and roasted manually!" Principal Wang introduced with a smile.
