Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Chen Yi took out the offerings from his storage bag and silently prayed for blessings from the immortals.

The next moment, a golden light instantly enveloped the offerings, and several lines of golden characters popped up before his eyes.

[Blessed by the immortals, the shrine descends upon the world]

【True Martial Emperor's Blessing (Tier 1): Comprehension +10%, Spell Power +10%, with a certain probability of doubling spell power】

[Exclusive Passive Skill: Enlightenment and Tranquility, True Martial Fighting Spirit]

In an instant, a golden shrine appeared and floated in front of Chen Yi.

Inside the shrine appeared a figure holding a whisk and a seven-star sword, dressed in a black Taoist robe and shrouded in profound energy.

Chen Yi looked closely and saw that the True Martial Emperor had a majestic and imposing expression that inspired awe in everyone.

The statue of the True Martial Emperor pointed its sword at Chen Yi, and bursts of profound energy instantly surged out, enveloping Chen Yi entirely.

Chen Yi felt a sudden surge of enlightenment, gaining a deeper understanding of the Blazing Sun Furnace Technique, and his mind became as calm as still water, feeling completely relaxed.

[Upon receiving the first blessing from the True Martial Emperor, one's comprehension and cultivation speed will greatly increase, with effects lasting for fifteen days.]

Chen Yi felt a surge of warmth in his heart; the initial blessing was very effective, and he immediately began cultivating.

He removed his clothes, sat cross-legged in the prepared medicinal bath tub, swallowed the Spirit Essence Golden Pearl, and began cultivating the Blazing Sun Furnace Technique.

Chen Yi's spiritual energy began to circulate along the meridians, and his skin flushed slightly, a unique phenomenon associated with cultivating the Blazing Sun Furnace Technique.

Under the blessing of the True Martial Emperor, Chen Yi actually entered a meditative state.

Fifteen days passed in the blink of an eye.

Wei Xueqing sat in her wheelchair reading a book in the courtyard, a hint of sorrow flashing across her face.

Chen Yi is still in seclusion, and his elder brother has not been heard from for more than a month.

suddenly!

Wei Xueqing sensed waves of heat emanating from Chen Yi's room.

At that moment, Chen Yi suddenly opened his eyes in the room, his skin turning bright red.

He exhaled a breath of hot air, and the spiritual energy surrounding him instantly returned to his body.

Chen Yi flashed and suddenly leaped out of the wooden barrel.

He slowly moved his body, his bones cracking slightly, and he was full of strength.

Compared to when he first broke through to the third level of Qi Refining, Chen Yi's aura is now thick and solid, and his cultivation at the third level of Qi Refining has been completely stabilized.

"Phew, the blessing from the True Martial Emperor is indeed powerful; the effect of the first blessing is so remarkable," Chen Yi exclaimed.

His fifteen days of seclusion were equivalent to the effects of several months of arduous cultivation by an ordinary independent cultivator.

Chen Yi quietly sensed the changes within himself. In addition to his abundant spiritual energy, his physical body and bones had also been strengthened, which should be attributed to the effects of the Yellow Scale Jade.

After quickly washing himself, he felt hungry.

Cultivators in the Qi Refining stage have not yet achieved true Abstinence from Grains. Only by successfully entering the Foundation Establishment stage can they liquefy the spiritual energy in their dantian and undergo a complete physical transformation to reach the true Abstinence from Grains realm.

Chen Yi could vaguely feel a slight burning sensation in his meridians and dantian.

He instantly realized that this was probably the fire poison produced by cultivating the Blazing Sun Furnace Technique. Fortunately, he had left himself Jade Dew Fragrant Rice, which could dispel the fire poison.

After dressing neatly, Chen Yi pushed open the door and went out.

The gentle yet dazzling sunlight shone on him, causing Chen Yi to squint slightly.

"Brother Chen, you've finally emerged from seclusion!" Wei Xueqing exclaimed in surprise.

After Chen Yi's eyes adjusted to the sunlight, he smiled and replied:

"Hmm, it feels like a lifetime ago."

"Xueqing, have you been feeling well lately?"

Wei Xueqing smiled and nodded, saying, "I'm fine, it's just my older brother..."

At this point, Wei Xueqing hesitated, a look of worry appearing on her face.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi couldn't help but ponder. He calculated the time and realized that Wei Wufeng had been gone for more than a month and a half.

Although in the cultivation world, finding and exploring the cave dwellings of deceased cultivators usually takes a long time, Venerable Jin Guang is a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator, so if he knows the approximate location, it shouldn't take that long.

"Don't worry, I'll go to the outer sect of Tianling Sect to inquire about the situation when I get back."

"Perhaps an unexpected situation occurred during the mission, which caused the delay," Chen Yi said in a deep voice.

Wei Xueqing nodded slightly, telling Chen Yi to rest well after leaving seclusion.

Chen Yi felt hungry and immediately went to the kitchen. Fortunately, there was still some food left, which he devoured.

It took Chen Yi a long time to recover.

He noticed that as his physique improved, his appetite also increased. Chen Yi planned to start cooking with Jade Dew Fragrant Rice today to begin eliminating the "heat toxins."

If the fire poison continues to accumulate in the body, it will affect the cultivator's foundation building, and he doesn't want to leave any hidden dangers.

After eating and drinking his fill, Chen Yi chatted with Wei Xueqing for a while before heading to the backyard.

Pushing open the courtyard gate, the scene inside startled him.

Chen Yi stared intently ahead and saw a patch of emerald green floating above the insect house. Upon closer inspection, he was astonished to see that they were all spirit insects with green bodies.

"It's already a mature specimen!!"

Chen Yi quickly stepped forward and immediately began to examine the area.

One could see three-inch-long insects with pale blue wings constantly hovering in the insect house.

As if sensing Chen Yi's arrival, they all flew to him.

Chen Yi extended his right hand, and several Azure Spirit Devouring Insects landed on the back of his hand.

These Azure Spirit Devouring Insects do not harm Chen Yi; otherwise, they would secrete venom from their abdomens when encountering enemies, instantly corroding and devouring spiritual power, magical artifacts, and shields.

Chen Yi also discovered that a small number of Azure Nether Devouring Insects were much larger, twice the size of ordinary Azure Nether Devouring Insects, with more venom in their abdomens and more robust wings and legs.

"This is a mutated spirit insect!"

Chen Yi looked surprised as information about the mutated Azure Spirit Devouring Insects came to mind.

He waved his right hand, and two mutated Azure Nether Devouring Insects flew into the air and then suddenly exploded.

In an instant, two small plumes of poisonous mist suddenly formed.

It turns out that the mutated Azure Nether Devouring Insect can self-destruct, greatly increasing its corrosive effect.

Chen Yi looked at the swarm of insects, a hint of fervor flashing in his eyes.

If they all evolve into the mutated Azure Devouring Insects, the poisonous cloud formed after the explosion would likely require even Foundation Establishment cultivators to expend considerable effort to resolve.

"In just half a month, one-fifth of the insect eggs have hatched," Chen Yi said, counting them as he stood beside the insect enclosure.

The Azure Spirit Devouring Insect has a short growth cycle, taking only six months from hatching to adulthood, but its mortality rate is extremely low.

Thanks to the blessing of the Insect God, the growth rate is greatly increased.

"It would be great if a King Insect could appear. I wonder what kind of power the King Insect would have," Chen Yi thought to himself.

Then, he began to examine the spirit field next to him.

Some of the Jade Dew Fragrant Rice in the Spirit Field matured directly, while the rest of the Spirit Rice also grew rapidly.

The combined effect of the two insect swarms was also very strong, enabling the spirit rice to grow rapidly. Chen Yi collected the spirit essence golden beads and yellow scale jade secreted by the two insect kings.

After tending to the spirit insects and spirit fields, Chen Yi planned to go out and gather information.

Now, more than half a month has passed, and Wei Wufeng has not heard a word from him. He is afraid that the other party has met with misfortune.

After dressing neatly, Chen Yi pushed open the door and headed straight for the central street of the market.
