Cultivating Immortality: I Have a High-Martial World

Chapter 61 Increased Strength, Purple Jade Gourd (Second Update, Please Read On)

Lin Chen lowered his mind and tried to sense it.

The first thing to be affected is the change in the true essence and magical power within the dantian.

His originally weak true essence has become much stronger, several times stronger than when he first entered the path of immortality.

"With this level of true essence, flying on a magical artifact would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?"

Lin Chen was quite tempted and thought about trying to ride a magical artifact through the sky.

"Let's not rush. The environment on Earth is still not suitable for high-altitude flight, as it would cause unnecessary disturbances."

"Now that I'm back in the cultivation world, it's time to show off my mid-stage Qi Refining cultivation... Then I can openly and legitimately fly on my magical artifact."

Lin Chen thought to himself.

Han Jihai had previously promised him that once he reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining, he would give him a flying magic weapon.

"Besides magical power, the biggest boost upon entering the late stage of Qi Refining is undoubtedly in divine sense!"

Lin Chen's mind sank, and his divine sense spread outwards like a tide.

One zhang, two zhang, three zhang...

In the end, Lin Chen's divine sense stopped within a range of three zhang and three chi.

This means that within an eleven-meter radius of Lin Chen, no movement can escape his divine sense.

"Ants on the ground, stains on the wall...wait, and there's Li Nian too. This guy's actually watching a video of a girl dancing?"

Lin Chen opened his eyes, a strange expression on his face.

Who would have thought that Li Nian, who seemed so serious, was actually a lecherous old man?

Getting back to the main topic...

"The range of a cultivator who has just entered the late stage of Qi Refining is no more than three zhang, while mine is currently more than three chi... This is the improvement of the Heavenly Evolution Technique."

Lin Chen nodded slightly.

An improvement of about 10% is not much.

However, the Heavenly Evolution Technique has only been cultivated to the first level, and the bonuses will become greater and greater in the future.

"At the late stage of Qi Refining, my mana and true essence are sufficient to support the release of spells... Next time I return to Changchun Sect, I should find a few more spells to protect my path."

Lin Chen then briefly tested the wonders of divine sense.

I glanced at the time on my arm; there were less than ten hours left before I was transported back to the cultivation world.

"It's getting late, and there's nowhere else to go... I'll continue my cultivation."

Lin Chen was a diligent person, so he continued his cultivation.

He didn't withdraw from his practice until nearly dawn the next day.

Looking at the pile of spirit stone powder beneath him, Lin Chen frowned slightly.

"Entering the late stage of Qi Refining, the consumption of energy in cultivation has increased significantly."

"Now, it actually costs me five spirit stones to cultivate for a day?"

Lin Chen was slightly surprised. Such a consumption of spirit stones, let alone ordinary cultivators... even the elders of Changchun Sect couldn't afford to supply it, right?

"However, although the consumption of spirit stones is high, my cultivation speed is also somewhat terrifying..."

Lin Chen sensed it for a moment.

He had just broken through to the late stage of Qi Refining, and after a night of cultivation, his magical power seemed to have improved again.

It should be noted that even with dual spiritual roots, it takes one to two years to reach perfection in the later stages of Qi Refining.

"But at my pace, I'm afraid I can reach the peak of Qi Refining within six months..."

"Strange, what kind of spiritual root do I have... could it be a different kind of spiritual root?"

Lin Chen seemed to be deep in thought. He had previously read about the records of different spiritual roots when he was browsing through ancient books in the cultivation technique pavilion.

However, the unique spiritual root is extremely rare, almost as rare as the heavenly spiritual root.

"I just don't know what kind of unique spiritual root I have. Perhaps I can investigate that later if I have the chance..."

After finishing his cultivation, Lin Chen went to the Time-Space Chamber to prepare for the time travel.

As the countdown on my arm reached zero.

"Three, two, one..."

Lin Chen's gaze shifted.

……

Changchun Mountain Market, Lin Family Pavilion.

Lin Chen came to his senses and first took stock of the supplies.

Within a week, all the medicinal herbs were refined into pills.

He left most of the pills on Blue Star, but he still brought more than ten bottles of Qi and Blood Pills and more than thirty bottles of Qi-Boosting Pills.

"These pills can be kept in the shop for now; selling them for some spirit stones would be a good thing..."

"But we've run out of medicinal herbs in the shop, so we need to buy some more."

Lin Chen pondered for a while. There were specialized medicine shops in the market that only sold medicinal herbs, not pills.

These herbal medicine shops often have medicinal gardens built on the mountains outside the town, which they hire people to manage.

The Lin family is also planning to open a medicinal herb garden in their small residence, but it will take at least several months to harvest the first batch of herbs.

During this period, he needed to purchase supplies from outside.

"Fortunately, the price from the pharmacy isn't high... but you can't buy too much at once, or it might arouse suspicion."

Lin Chen cultivated for several more hours until morning, when he went to a herbal medicine shop.

I spent 800 spirit stones to wholesale 1,000 medicinal herbs.

The main ingredients were Crimson Blood Flower and Qi-Boosting Grass, and some medicinal herbs for refining Marrow Cleansing Pills were also purchased.

That afternoon, Huang Xin brought about ten outer disciples of Danfeng.

After meeting them, Lin Chen offered each of them a monthly stipend of three spirit stones.

This salary is quite high, considering that managing a medicinal garden isn't exactly a skilled job.

Lin Chen was busy until evening before leaving the market and climbing Changchun Mountain.

"The industrial chain for pill refining is initially formed. There is no need to worry about medicinal materials and pill refining... but it will take some time to expand the industrial chain."

Lin Chen pondered along the way and soon arrived at Danfeng.

First, he went to pay his respects to his master, Han Jihai.

"Chen'er, it's been a few days... Have you taken care of the shops in the market?" Han Jihai asked casually.

"what?"

Before he finished speaking, he carefully examined Lin Chen again and exclaimed in surprise:

"You've broken through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining?"

Lin Chen nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"After cultivating at the foot of the mountain for a few days, I broke through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining with a bit of luck."

"Good, your cultivation speed has exceeded my expectations."

Han Jihai pondered for a moment and said:

"I promised you before that I would give you a flying magic weapon once you broke through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining."

As he spoke, he first went back into the house, and a moment later he had a palm-sized purple gourd in his hand.

Lin Chen was stunned when he saw the gourd.

"Master, this gourd looks somewhat like my senior sister's, except hers is red, while this gourd is purple..."

Han Jihai handed over the gourd and explained:

"That's right, your senior sister's magic gourd and your purple jade gourd are of the same origin."

With a look of reminiscence in his eyes, Han Jihai said:

"This gourd was left to me by your grandmaster..."

"In his youth, he traveled extensively, venturing thousands of miles away and leaving the territory of Yanlai Kingdom long ago."

"He accidentally entered a secret realm where a gourd vine grew, with seven gourds on the vine. It was a wonder nurtured by heaven and earth, and was extremely suitable for refining into magical artifacts."

"My master was lucky enough to obtain two gourds, namely this purple jade gourd and that red jade gourd..."

After listening, Lin Chen carefully examined the gourd in his hand.

He could sense that this purple jade gourd was extraordinary.

As expected, Han Jihai said:

"Don't underestimate this purple jade gourd. It is a superior flying magic weapon, and its speed is comparable to that of a flying sword."

"Besides that, this gourd is also a natural storage artifact, with an internal space that is a full ten feet in diameter..."

"Your two senior brothers have been begging for this purple jade gourd for ages, but I haven't been willing to give it to them!"
