Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Old Su waved his hand and smiled:

"Alright, alright, you can't refuse my kind offer."

"Besides, this Blazing Sun Sword is only a magic weapon for the Qi Refining stage, which is no longer useful to me, but it's perfect for you."

Chen Yi was deeply moved upon hearing this. Elder Su treated him like a disciple, and he thanked Elder Su for his help repeatedly.

Old Su took out a jade slip from his robes and handed it to Chen Yi:

"We use the same cultivation method during the Qi Refining stage, so this spell is very suitable for you."

"My insights are also recorded on it; you can try practicing some of them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi was about to refuse, but was stopped by Elder Su.

"Alright, kid, just come sell your spirit rice here more often from now on." Old Su waved his hand.

Chen Yi nodded emphatically, thanked Old Su again, and then turned to leave Jinfeng Rice Shop.

Old Su looked at Chen Yi, a hint of reminiscence appearing on his face.

Chen Yi's Yulu fragrant rice is of very high quality, so it's natural that he should try to win him over.

Moreover, he is very young, and by cultivating spirit rice, he may have the potential to establish his foundation in the future.

After leaving Jinfeng Rice Shop, Chen Yi went straight to Baibaoge.

A moment later, he reappeared in the Treasure Pavilion, and a servant immediately came to greet him.

"I'm looking for the old manager and young master of the Spirit Insect Pavilion. Could you please inform them?" Chen Yi said.

The servant looked puzzled and asked, "Do you know our old manager?"

Chen Yi nodded slightly and said, "That's right, we had an agreement. Please inform them."

Upon hearing this, the servant immediately showed a respectful expression, asked Chen Yi to wait a moment, and then turned and headed straight to the back.

A moment later, the servant led the old manager out from inside.

When he saw Chen Yi, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

It takes at least five or six months for the Azure Spirit Devouring Insect to mature. Now, less than four months later, Chen Yi has returned to the Treasure Pavilion.

"Old shopkeeper, it's been a long time," Chen Yi said, cupping his hands in greeting.

The old shopkeeper looked Chen Yi up and down, and said:

"Chen Yi, have all the insect eggs the young master gave you hatched?"

Chen Yi took out the insect-raising bag from his pocket and immediately handed it to the old shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper looked somewhat incredulous as he took the insect-rearing bag and walked upstairs with Chen Yi.

They arrived at the Spirit Insect Pavilion, where the old manager opened a protective array and led Chen Yi inside.

"Chen Yi, open the insect-rearing bag," the old shopkeeper said.

Chen Yi smiled, and with a thought, the insect-raising bag opened, and one after another, Azure Netherworld Spirit-Devouring Insects flew out.

Under his control, the swarm of insects floated silently in mid-air.

The old shopkeeper stared at the swarm of insects floating in mid-air, his surprise evident in his eyes.

These Azure Spirit Devouring Insects were all mature, numbering over seven hundred, with a small number being exceptionally large, clearly having undergone evolution.

Even the insect tamers in the Hundred Treasures Pavilion were not capable of cultivating the Azure Spirit Devouring Insects to such a scale in such a short time.

"These, these are all cultivated by you?!" the old shopkeeper said in disbelief.

Chen Yi smiled calmly and said confidently:

"The old manager is someone I personally trained."

"I have already submitted one-third as required. Please give it to the young master."

A hint of joy flashed in the old shopkeeper's eyes, and his attitude towards Chen Yi changed.

"Chen Yi, the young master is not here."

"I'll take these Azure Spirit Devouring Insects for now, and I can give you a thousand spirit stones as a reward. What do you think?" the old shopkeeper asked.

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Chen Yi's eyes. He could not only get the insect eggs for free, but also obtain extra spirit stones.

As long as the insect god bestows blessings, there is no need to bear the risk of failure in cultivating insect eggs.

"Yes, thank you very much, old shopkeeper," Chen Yi said gratefully.

The old shopkeeper laughed heartily, took out a storage bag from his pocket, and handed it to Chen Yi.

"This is all because the young master trusts you. You will thank him in person later."

"I will send someone to inform you when he returns to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion," the old shopkeeper said.

Chen Yi nodded slightly and asked if there were any other insect eggs, as he could also cultivate spirit insects.

A strange look flashed in the old shopkeeper's eyes as he declined, saying:

"I also need to consult with the young master about this matter. Let's discuss it in detail when you come to visit next time."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi realized that the only person who could make the decision regarding the hatching of the insect eggs was probably the young master of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

He didn't insist, after all, it was the young master who had agreed to it in the first place.

Moreover, Chen Yi had another idea, which probably only the young master of Baibaoge could decide.

Chen Yi thanked the old shopkeeper and accepted the storage bag.

Afterwards, the old shopkeeper asked his servant to accompany Chen Yi to browse around the Treasure Pavilion, promising Chen Yi a 10% discount on any treasures he purchased that day.

Chen Yi instructed his servant to lead the way, as he wanted to purchase medicinal herbs and plants for his medicinal bath.

He has prepared two thousand spirit stones for this trip, intending to make a large-scale purchase.

The two arrived at the medicinal herbs and spiritual plants area. Chen Yi immediately inquired about the medicinal herbs and spiritual plants used for body tempering, and the servant immediately stepped forward to open the brocade boxes one by one and introduce them to him.

After careful selection, Chen Yi purchased seven or eight kinds of spiritual plants, all of which were top-grade spiritual plants used for body tempering.

He then bought some Qi Condensation Pills and Yuan Nourishing Pills for cultivation, and in the blink of an eye, he had spent all two thousand low-grade spirit stones.

"Cultivating immortality is really expensive, but these spiritual plants and pills are enough for me to cultivate for a while," Chen Yi thought to himself.

He left the Treasure Pavilion satisfied and went straight back to his own courtyard.

Chen Yi returned to the courtyard without stopping and continued planting Jade Dew Fragrant Rice in the backyard.

No land should be left uncultivated when planting spiritual rice; the next batch should be planted immediately after harvesting one batch of spiritual rice.

Thinking that he would need many more spirit stones for cultivation in the future, Chen Yi was encouraged to work hard to plant spirit rice.

He plans to plant several more batches of Yulu fragrant rice before planting Ling rice, which has a higher value.

Chen Yi was busy until dusk before he finally planted Jade Dew Fragrant Rice in the backyard.

After a simple dinner, he returned to his room and took out the jade slip from his storage bag.

Chen Yi activated the jade slip with his own spiritual energy, and wisps of radiant light poured into his mind as if they were tangible.

"Crimson Blood Spirit Explosion Technique, so that's how it works."

A moment later, Chen Yi slowly opened his eyes, and he learned all the information about the Crimson Blood Spirit Explosion Technique.

"No wonder Elder Su warned me to be careful when practicing this technique; it actually requires one's own blood to activate it," Chen Yi thought to himself, secretly alarmed.

Crimson Blood Explosion is a fire-attribute spell that is activated by the user's own blood and spiritual energy.

There are three styles in total.

The first technique is the Fireball Technique, which can launch a huge fireball that explodes, making it extremely powerful.

The second move is Fire Meteor, which uses compressed blood and spiritual energy to create streaks of meteors to attack the enemy.

The third technique is quite special; it allows one's own blood to penetrate the magical artifact, increasing the burning effect of the flames.

Chen Yi's face lit up with joy. The Crimson Blood Flame Burst Technique was a perfect match for the cultivation method he practiced. If he could master it, his strength would surely reach a higher level.

Chen Yi rested peacefully for the night and planned to begin practicing the Crimson Blood Spirit Explosion Technique the next day.

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Yi got up early and used the jade slip to read the incantation for the first form of the Crimson Blood Spirit Explosion Technique.

He pricked his fingertip, drew blood, and began practicing magic.

Blood and spiritual energy condensed at his fingertips, gradually forming a tiny fireball. Unfortunately, before it could fully take shape, it slowly dissipated into the air.

Chen Yi was not discouraged and continued to practice his magic.

At the same time, several lines of large golden characters appeared leisurely in front of him.
