Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 118 [Dragon-Raising Box (Red)], Longevity Method

A burst of brilliant light~
"Ding~ 600 Magic Dust consumed, card fusion successful, obtained [Dragon Raising Box (Red)]".

A small, flat, sliding box, about the size of a palm, with a black background and red patterns, depicting an abstract dragon holding an egg with two large tentacles.

【Dragon Raising Box (Red)】

Tier 4 Magic Item Card
Originally a national treasure box of the Eastern Xia Kingdom containing the eggs of the centipede, it was transformed into a magical artifact after some modifications, and now the eggs of the centipede have been placed back inside...

It can unleash 999 level 20 flying centipedes to attack and devour enemies.

The flying centipede is highly venomous and its body is as hard as iron, making it impervious to ordinary spells. It can also devour magical power and counter many defensive spells.

If the Flying Centipede devours enough flesh and mana, it can give birth to a level 30 Alien Dragon Centipede.

If all the flying centipedes die, as long as enough magic power and flesh are injected into the box, another batch can automatically hatch in thirty-six days!
Note: If they are deprived of blood and nourishment for a long time, flying centipedes will fight each other and may even turn on each other.

Comment: Possessing this treasure, one might be called a centipede Gu Master!
"Holy crap!" Chen Xiuxian immediately perked up.

Although the number of flying centipedes remained unchanged at 999, their level directly increased to level 20!
Furthermore, if you can stay alive, eat more enemies, and even level up?
The description of the previous [Tentaur Box (Red)] stated that it was "originally a treasure box for storing Tentaur centipede eggs". Wouldn't it be perfect to put the Tentaur eggs back?
The synthesis effect is indeed quite good!

What a lucky accident!
With this thing in hand, along with the [Azure Sun Jade Venerable Statue (Red)], I'll be able to put up a fight against even a powerful cultivator in the Gang Sha Realm!

Although it might only take a couple of hits, at least it wasn't a bunch of trash that were easily wiped out by the aftershocks of a battle.

Congratulations, congratulations!
Now we really have a trump card and confidence!

……

Besides the two red cards, Chen Xiuxian also organized his cultivation techniques.

【The Harmony of Yin and Yang and the Genesis of All Things (Red)】20/21 layers, just one more layer to fill up.

Then I obtained another skill:
【Great Bliss Meditation Method (Blue)】

Tier 3 Cultivation Card
The practice of dual cultivation of joy and bliss, a branch of Buddhism, is a path to great spiritual bliss, which can strengthen the will and bring about wisdom.

There are 12 floors in total.

Each level grants +1 Willpower and +1 Lifespan.

+5 Intelligence-type magic resistance for every 4 layers.

At level 12, you gain the special effect "Unmoved," which allows you to remain calm and composed, and grants temporary immunity to all negative effects.

Cultivation requirements: 20 in physical constitution, 20 in comprehension, and 20 in willpower.

Review: This is a very unorthodox Buddhist practice of dual cultivation. Don't let orthodox monks see it!

This practice demands high levels of physical constitution, comprehension, and willpower. It aligns with the characteristics of some Buddhist practices.

And now there's one more subject:
【Civil Engineering Flow (Blue)】

Tier 3 Cultivation Card
A technique for cultivating Qi that utilizes the liver and spleen to generate the Qi of Earth and Wood, thereby protecting the body and performing spells.

There are 15 floors in total.

Each level grants +100 Health, +50 Mana, +1 Earth Spirit Qi, and +1 Wood Spirit Qi.

+1 lifespan for every 3 layers.

The 5th layer grants the special effect "Spleen Earth Protection," which uses earth spirit energy to form a protective film.

At level 10, you will obtain the special effect "Liver Wood Growth", which uses Wood Spirit Qi to remove toxins and abnormal conditions, and restore Qi, blood and magic power.

At level 15, you gain the special effect "Earth and Wood Flow," which grants a powerful recovery in dire situations. Within 3 minutes, your innate attributes increase by 50%, defense by 100%, magic resistance by 30%, health is restored by 1000%, and mana is restored by 500%.

修炼需求：根骨18、悟性14、体质22、土灵炁3、木灵炁3。

Review: As expected of a civil engineering ox, it's incredibly durable!
When Chen Xiuxian first saw this cultivation technique card, his immediate reaction was that it was perfect for him.

It pairs perfectly with my [“The Earth-Wood Path Technique: Qi Refining Chapter” (Blue)]!
I also have the spell [Earth Control (Green)].

Looking back now, he realized there were even more things to think about.

As the saying goes, "He who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present." The path of spiritual practice has always been fraught with difficulties and dangers, so one must plan ahead.

Often, one wrong step can ruin an entire career.

Other players can simply clear out their inventory and create a new character to inherit their inventory, saying, "Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war; please start over, hero."

I don't get that kind of treatment!

If you choose the wrong path, it's hard to turn back. Even ten times the effort and resources might not be enough to make up for it. That's why I never even glanced at things like the "Jade Emperor's Heart Response Sutra (Red)" or the "Touching Dragon God's Metamorphosis and Rebirth Sutra."

If I were a player, I wouldn't care about this or that, I'd just charge in!

How many players these days can master a red-quality Tier 4 skill?

My ancestors' graves must be emitting auspicious smoke!

So what if we're now bound to the White Lotus Sect like a broken ship? Does that mean the Great Shun Dynasty will be alright?

I'm determined to destroy their country! I'll be the first to carry a satchel charge and blow up their palace! Rebellion is justified!

So what if you turn into a giant centipede? The game hasn't even released the alien monster races yet, and you've already transformed into a flying giant insect. I wonder how many people will be so envious!
If they started a live stream, they could collect all the Cullinan fragments!
The players' unrestrained and carefree mentality is something that Chen Xiuxian, now a "half-native", can't compare to.

People can't stand not doing something stupid for a day.

Chen Xiuxian remained as steady as an old dog, carefully assuming that this was a bed he had been on for a long time!

Chen Xiuxian: I didn't dare take any risks at all!
After the "Great Calamity" version of the game was released, some information began to be discovered by players.

One of them is about condensing Qi in the Gang Sha Realm.

Once you reach level 30 and want to break through to the next level, it's no longer a typical "breakthrough quest".

You need to find enough Heavenly Generals or Earthly Fiends before you can proceed to the next step.

However, not just any element will do. The more mixed the elements are, the easier it is for conflicts to arise.

However, if you make it simple and the functions are somewhat limited, you might suffer losses after upgrading.

Moreover, the attributes and characteristics of the Qi Sha must match one's own cultivation method; otherwise, serious problems may easily arise.

Either the skill you painstakingly leveled up becomes useless, or you encounter problems while condensing your inner energy, leading to qi deviation and rendering your character unusable!
Take Li Longhua, the third young master of the Maitreya Sect, whom we killed before. He practiced the White Lotus Sect's techniques and refined the Earthly Fiends that the White Lotus Sect had dealt with for two or three hundred years. The combination of these techniques worked very well.

Even Li Longhua, who hadn't fought many people and was somewhat unskilled, possessed surprisingly powerful techniques.

To put it simply, even if Chen Xiuxian were to go up there and use all his methods, he might not be able to break through that virtuous and pure land.

Once you reach the Gang Sha Realm, your magical power is no longer simply transformed from human Qi; the difference between them is like heaven and earth.

Similarly, when using the green-quality [Soil Control Technique (Green)], Chen Xiuxian simply smashed rocks into the air.

A cultivator at the Gang Sha Realm could lift a small hill with the same amount of mana!
However, for players, there is an advantage in the stage of condensing Qi and Sha – they can fuse all the messy cultivation techniques they possess!
Although it will result in a significant loss of cultivation points, it is a tremendous advantage that can "bring the dead back to life".

Of course, if you plan ahead and the cultivation method and the Qi you intend to condense are already compatible, then you can skip this step, greatly reducing the loss of cultivation progress and cultivation level.

This is also one of the advantages of being a latecomer!
Chen Xiuxian's own martial arts techniques are not seriously affected. He can simply discard them when the time comes.

That dual cultivation technique has nothing to do with improving one's cultivation level, so don't worry about it—just control your lower body!
Only the Qi-refining technique!

Previously, he had the "Earth and Wood Flowing Technique: Refining Qi Chapter (Blue)" and now he has another book, "Earth and Wood Flowing Notes (Blue)". In that case, all he needs to do is find the Gang Sha with the Earth and Wood attributes!
This will save a lot of effort.

Of course, Chen Xiuxian also had an even bolder idea.

While the Earth and Wood elements are good and reliable, aren't they a bit too demanding?
Nobody's going to be a beast of burden for life.
The foreman?!

It is important to know that in the world of "The Great Thousand Primordial Chaos", the Five Elements and Yin and Yang are the fundamental principles that lead to the heavens.

If I could gather all five elements cultivation techniques, cultivate the five internal organs and five qi, integrate the five elements' qi and evil spirits, and condense the five elements' magic spells, that would be incredibly awesome.

The advantage of cultivating all five elements simultaneously is that, with the five elements rotating, one will not be restrained by the attributes of other people's cultivation techniques; on the contrary, one can find ways to restrain others.

This also relates to the future upper limit, such as the Golden Core Realm above the Gang Sha Realm!

To form a core, it's extremely difficult with ordinary cultivation techniques, ordinary qi and qi, and ordinary magical power.

The Gang Sha Realm is already considered a rare and powerful cultivator these days, but only one in a hundred Gang Sha Realm cultivators might be able to successfully form their core.

Of course, there are some shortcuts in this world.

However, the golden cores formed by those methods have serious problems, and no further progress is the least of their worries.

Even so, shortcuts are extremely valuable and difficult to come by!
A person who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present. If you don't think about forming your core now, you'll be at a loss when the time comes.

Although entering the Gangsha Realm allows one to live to 120 years old, Chen Xiuxian's lifespan is even longer.

But those at the Golden Core stage can directly gain an additional 500 years of lifespan!

Who doesn't want to live longer!
