Cultivating Immortality: I Have a High-Martial World

Chapter 38 Refining Qi to the Third Level, Transmigrating to the Immortal Cultivation World Once Again!

Upon seeing Li Nian's expression, Lin Chen instantly realized that the item in his hand was probably extraordinary.

So Lin Chen raised his hoe and asked:

"Is this thing really that powerful?"

Li Nian's expression was somewhat complicated after hearing this.

"It's more than just powerful; this should be the most precious type of martial spirit."

"Most importantly, this martial spirit's origins are extraordinary...it holds great significance!"

Lin Chen became even more curious after hearing this.

Li Nian then said in a low voice:

"You must know very well who Old Jiang is..."

"Old Jiang once had a son who was regarded as his successor... but he died on the battlefield of the Martial Realm."

"And this black hoe belonged to his son!"

"For so many years, Old Master Jiang has not chosen a successor from his faction... Now he has given you this hoe! Do you think this means?"

Lin Chen was stunned by Li Nian's string of words.

Looking at the black hoe in his hand, he felt it weighed a ton.

At this moment, Li Nian also told Lin Chen about the effects of the black hoe.

"Elder Jiang's son is a very powerful Martial Venerable... His Martial Spirit is known as the Mountain-Splitting Hoe!"

"This hoe can be made large or small, and can even grow into a small mountain... It is first-class in both offense and defense."

"At the same time, this hoe seems to be very useful for plowing and tilling the land!"

Li Nian recalled that his understanding of Hei Chu was not comprehensive.

But Lin Chen was already quite surprised after hearing this.

The Black Hoe Martial Spirit can change size, and can transform into a small mountain at its largest.

Lin Chen was stunned for a moment. The effect of this martial spirit... sounded like a powerful magic weapon from the cultivation world!

He carefully put away the black hoe, preparing to explore it further later.

……

Over the next two days, Lin Chen continued to learn the Zhen Dao martial art.

With continuous practice, Lin Chen became more and more proficient, and could almost guarantee 100% accuracy in his technique.

However, for Lin Chen at present, the consumption of the sword is not small.

Meanwhile, thanks to the hard work of the researchers, the alchemy room that Lin Chen needed was successfully completed.

During this period, he also took the time to visit the alchemy room several times and made requests regarding the details.

According to Lin Chen's wishes, the alchemy room contained several large instruments capable of generating flames.

The flame temperature ranges from several hundred degrees to tens of thousands of degrees, and can be precisely controlled by instruments.

They also built more than ten alchemy furnaces, each about a foot tall, made of high-grade exotic metals, which are heat-resistant and very sturdy.

In addition, over time...

The spiritual rice planting project, as well as the research on spiritual stones and cultivation techniques, have yielded some results.

In particular, the detection of spiritual roots.

In just a few days, the researchers used four spirit-testing stones to test the spiritual roots of more than 400 people.

Finally... a major discovery was made.

The aptitude of the human race on Earth is very similar to that of the cultivation world.

About half of them have the aptitude for cultivating immortality, but most of them have inferior or mixed spiritual roots.

At the same time, those with higher martial arts aptitude often have stronger spiritual root aptitude.

Therefore, there are many martial artists in the Great Xia Military Region with three or even two spiritual roots.

To Lin Chen's surprise, Li Nian was also a cultivator with a single spiritual root.

And it's a gold spiritual root!

Of course, Lin Chen also offered his own opinions.

Cultivating immortality is different from martial arts; it's often better to start as early as possible.

If someone like Li Nian were to start cultivating immortality after the age of forty, they would probably achieve nothing in their lifetime.

In Lin Chen's ideal plan, it would be best to start from childhood.

Before children in the Xia Kingdom are even exposed to martial arts, they begin cultivating immortality and nourishing their bodies.

Of course, this undoubtedly requires more spirit-testing stones to test spiritual roots on a large scale.

Currently, researchers have not yet discovered a material that can replace the spirit-testing stone.

……

On the seventh day after returning to Earth, Lin Chen got up and glanced at the countdown on his arm.

— 23:29.

"Tomorrow morning is the time for the next time travel..."

Lin Chen's heart stirred slightly, and he slowly concealed his aura.

In a short while, he went from the peak of the second level of Qi Refining to the late stage of the first level of Qi Refining.

"I've completely mastered the Wood Concealment Technique... It's not difficult to conceal one or two layers of one's cultivation level."

"Unless a Foundation Establishment cultivator examines me closely, they will likely find it difficult to detect my true cultivation level!"

Lin Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, no cultivator had investigated his cultivation level beforehand, otherwise they would have noticed his abnormality long ago.

Now there's nothing to fear. With the Wood Concealment Technique mastered, as long as we're a little cautious, there shouldn't be any problems.

"My Qi and Blood value has reached 36 points, and my cultivation is only one step away from the third level of Qi Refining..."

"Let's see if we can break through to the third level of Qi Refining today!"

Lin Chen sent a message to Li Nian, deciding not to go to the Martial Arts Palace and instead focus on cultivating at home.

After taking a Qi-boosting pill, Lin Chen felt that the flow of spiritual energy within his body had increased slightly.

This Qi-Boosting Pill is a good thing. If a Qi Refining cultivator takes it, it can increase their cultivation speed by 20% to 30%.

One can last for two hours.

Holding a spirit stone in his hand, abundant spiritual energy entered his body.

Lin Chen sat cross-legged and began to circulate the Evergreen Technique.

From dawn until dusk, Lin Chen consumed a full two spirit stones.

At the same time, the aura emanating from his body was also constantly rising...

Finally, at a certain moment, the magical power within Lin Chen's body surged slightly again.

As if there were no bottlenecks, he smoothly entered the third level of Qi Refining!

Lin Chen activated the Wood Concealment Technique, and the leaking magical power gradually subsided, returning to the level one of Qi Refining.

"Finally broke through to the third level of Qi Refining. This speed... isn't slow!" Lin Chen thought with a hint of joy.

It has been almost a month since he started cultivating.

After learning the method of Qi induction, one can draw Qi into the body overnight and enter the Qi refining period.

It took Lin Chen seven days to go from the first level of Qi Refining to the second level.

It took Lin Chen almost half a month to go from the second to the third level of Qi Refining.

"At this rate, it might take a month to reach the mid-stage of Qi Refining?"

Lin Chen pondered for a moment.

For him, it was a month, but for both Earth and the cultivation world, it was only half a month.

Therefore, entering the mid-stage of Qi Refining in half a month is nothing short of unprecedented, but it can certainly be described as astonishing!

"Fortunately, the magical power of those in the early stages of Qi Refining is inherently weak, so without careful examination, not much difference can be discerned..."

"By the time they reach the late stage of Qi Refining, the Wood Concealment Technique will likely be fully mastered!"

Lin Chen closed his eyes and carefully experienced the changes in the three levels of Qi Refining.

"My divine sense seems stronger, and the internal visualization of my soul is much clearer... Perhaps I'll be able to project my divine sense outwards when I reach the mid-stage of Qi Refining?"

"At the same time, my true essence and magical power have also become much stronger... With my current true essence control over artifacts, the power will probably be even more terrifying!" Lin Chen thought with a hint of joy.

In short, with his current cultivation level, he has a much better chance of protecting himself.

I glanced at the countdown on my arm; there were less than six hours left before I could cross over.

"Let's contact Li Nian first and go to the Martial Arts Palace..."

Lin Chen did not wake his sleeping uncle and aunt, and Li Nian drove him to the Martial Arts Palace.

……

Several hours later, at the Martial Arts Palace.

Lin Chen put on the disciple's robe of Changchun Sect, preparing for another time travel.

Before his death, Wang Lishan gave the instructions:

"Xiao Chen, we've made some progress in our research on spiritual roots and even spells. But we're stuck on the most crucial step... spiritual energy!"

"Do you think you could find a way to get some spiritual energy back from the cultivation world?"

Spiritual energy?

"Okay, I'll try to get some spiritual energy this time!" Lin Chen nodded.

The countdown to the time travel has started to reset.

"Three, two...one!"

Lin Chen's gaze shifted again...
