Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 71 Qi Refining Level 8 (10,000 words update, please subscribe)

A month later.

In the practice room.

With a slight thought, Shen Xuan caused the mysterious jade talisman to retract its golden light, and the ancient golden characters began to flicker.

[Talent: Basic Thunderstorm of the Sea (24/100)]

【Daoyun: 1128】

[Spiritual Root: Water 33/100]

Shen Xuan gave it a try.

The beginner-level [Overturning Sea Lightning] technique has an attack power more than ten times that of natural lightning.

The electric field that is formed can only cover a radius of three zhang (approximately 10 meters) on land.

While in the lake, it can cover a surrounding area of ​​several dozen feet.

Massive area-of-effect attack!
The power of lightning is far less than that of divine lightning in a celestial tribulation.

It would be difficult to directly electrocute cultivators and demonic beasts of the same level.

But it can make the other person freeze for a while.

It's quite useful as a supplementary attack method.

Moreover, this talent can also be stacked into the [Condensing Water to Transform into Edge Technique] and the [Water Spirit Gathering Technique].

Imagine, the Dark Spirit Fish, evolved from the fusion of two water techniques, possesses inherent lightning attributes and boasts even greater attack power.

It also has a very good blessing effect on various evil and demonic practitioners.

The quality of the spiritual root has increased by two points.

This also calmed Shen Xuan down from his excitement.

Improving the quality of one's spiritual root is not so easy.

When plundering bloodline talents, the monster's own rank cannot be too low.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of effort.

This also means that as the quality of one's spiritual root improves, the monsters that plunder bloodline talents become more powerful.

"No rush, I'm only seventy-five!"

"It would be great if you could reach the Foundation Establishment stage before the age of ninety!"

"The talent I possess now is no less than that of the sect's most outstanding talents!"

"His strength far surpasses that of others of the same level. In water, he can fight across an entire realm!"

Thinking of this, Shen Xuan felt at ease.

He doesn't have many desires.

I just want to live a peaceful and stable life.

Live to the end of time, live forever!
【Overturning the Sea with Lightning】 has mediocre attack power.

Shen Xuan was not in a hurry and improved slowly.

Let's just store the Daoist points.

Time passes day by day.

Midsummer is gradually fading away, and the footsteps of autumn are getting closer and closer.

That day, in the cultivation room, Shen Xuan sat cross-legged and circulated the [Divine Treasure Vast Ocean Technique].

His eyes were tightly closed, and the surrounding spiritual energy fluctuated violently.

a certain moment.

Shen Xuan's body trembled.

Its body faintly shimmered with a bluish-green luster.

It's as if it has transformed into a vast ocean.

at the same time.

A tremendous aura suddenly erupted from his body, instantly filling the cultivation room.

Vast and boundless, seemingly endless.

Shen Xuan took a deep breath.

The spiritual energy in the room rushed into his body.

Within the Dantian.

The spiritual energy was like a vast ocean, with rippling blue waves.

The five internal organs and six bowels were transformed into islands in the vast ocean, with the essence of water spirit circulating.

The five elements circulate in a cycle, originating from the dantian.

Spiritual energy is like the sea, ever-flowing and inexhaustible.

Half an hour later, Shen Xuan opened his eyes.

"I've finally broken through to the eighth level of Qi Refining."

It took four years, including the addition of a superior Daoist temple and a spirit-gathering array, to finally break through.

The spirit stones for the spirit gathering array alone cost three thousand.

You can buy three high-quality magical artifacts!
It is only because Shen Xuan, an elderly Qi Refining cultivator, is willing to spend so many spirit stones in order to catch up with his cultivation progress.

For ordinary cultivators, the normal pace of advancing one level in the late stage of Qi Refining is seven or eight years.

Shen Xuan couldn't wait any longer.

Your body knows it.

Although the [Divine Treasure Ocean Skill] has health benefits, he also possesses talents such as [Longevity] and [Iron Bones].

"My spiritual sense, spiritual power, physical strength, and even my ability to sense spiritual energy have all increased by 20%!"

However, bodily functions are inevitably declining slowly.

【Shouyuan: 75/140】

After breaking through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, his lifespan only increased by two years!
This put Shen Xuan under a lot of pressure.

Fortunately, he now has some ability to protect himself.

"Ten years have passed since Master passed away. As promised, we classmates gathered at Juxianlou in Longmen Market."

Previously, Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying had each written a letter.

Tell him that you have already spoken with Bai Xinghe of the Crimson Rainbow Sect to clear up the misunderstanding.

Just avoid Bai Xinghe from now on and try not to run into him.

Don't worry about it.

In fact, Shen Xuan's current strength should be above Bai Xinghe's.

He just didn't want to cause trouble.

After all, behind Bai Xinghe is the Crimson Rainbow Sect, a cultivation sect.

Shen Xuan entrusted Ding Yuyao to Jiang Xueqi, asking her to take good care of his wife.

"I have to go out on business and will be back in two or three months. Please take good care of my wife, Fellow Daoist Jiang and Fellow Daoist Zhao."

"Master Shen is a great benefactor to our whole family! You can rest assured that Sister Yuyao is with us!"

Jiang Xueqi confidently declared, "Not to mention staying for just two or three months, even staying for eight or ten years is no problem!"

Ding Yuyao is a mortal, and living alone in a second-class mansion is not safe enough.

With Zhao Chunsheng and his wife taking care of him, he can go out with peace of mind.

"My husband, please take care of yourself while you are away from home!" Ding Yuyao earnestly instructed.

"Don't worry, my wife. I'll be careful!"

Zhao Chunsheng reassured her, "Don't worry, Madam Shen! What we need to be careful of are those who have offended Master Shen!"

"Your husband is incredibly powerful; even a Foundation Establishment cultivator can't do anything to him!"

Shen Xuan smiled and nodded.

Zhao Chunsheng wasn't wrong.

……

The following day, Shen Xuan left Yunyuan Immortal City, entered the water from the East Sea, and headed towards the Longze River.

Another decade has passed.

Shen Xuan swam deep into the sea, using his [Water Control Technique] to move steadily at a speed of forty meters per second.

The Water Escape Technique and the Water Repelling Technique are faster, but they consume more spiritual energy, mental acuity, and physical strength.

His current speed of 600 li per hour is already very fast.

It's slightly slower than a flying boat, but it's safer.

Now, while in the water, Shen Xuan can clearly perceive subtle movements within a fifty-foot radius after using the [Insight Technique].

This allows you to avoid powerful sea monsters and water beasts in advance.

Moreover, water-type monsters of the third rank or higher rarely appear in the Longze River.

This is far safer than piloting a flying boat.

Shen Xuan's active participation in this classmate reunion was for a clear purpose.

First, he needs Lü Zhengying's help to dispose of the high-grade magical artifacts in his storage bag.

More than ten high-grade magical artifacts, worth nearly ten thousand spirit stones.

Even if it's stolen goods, he wants to sell them for a good price but also avoid trouble.

In this kind of situation, only Lü Zhengying could help.

He was a Foundation Establishment elder of the sect, and no one dared to investigate when he used some high-grade magic artifacts.

Secondly, he wanted to find out information about Foundation Establishment Pills and the process of breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

The Azure Water Sect strictly forbids the outflow of Foundation Establishment Pills; even with spirit stones, they cannot be bought in Cloud Abyss Immortal City.

He has now reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Although it will still be more than ten years before I reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

But it's time to start making plans.

Inquire about the channels for Foundation Establishment Pills, purchase some cultivation manuals on Foundation Establishment, and prepare some spiritual items for Foundation Establishment.

Third, he wants to try to buy the Foundation Establishment chapter of the [Divine Treasure Ocean Technique].

The Divine Treasure Ocean Technique is his main cultivation method, and it suits him extremely well.

Now, it has already achieved some success.

He also needed to plan ahead to see if he could purchase the Foundation Establishment Chapter of the Divine Treasure Ocean Technique from the Qingyun Sect.

Even if I can't cultivate for the time being.

Reviewing the material beforehand and laying a theoretical foundation will greatly benefit his improvement of the [Divine Treasure Ocean Skill].

In addition, and most importantly, he needs to maintain good relationships with Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying.

This is a Foundation Establishment Elder of the Qingyun Sect!
In the future, I will inevitably need their help.

"I hope this gathering goes smoothly and that nothing goes wrong!"
