Shrouding the Sky: The System Arrived Thirty Years Early
Chapter 36 The Other Shore: 9 Metamorphosis
The guess came true, which means that as long as Luo Qianqiu finds a reference point in the future, he can select stones based on the strength of the "momentum" and will almost never lose money.
In the second courtyard, people were not surprised by the result. That's how gambling on stones is; there are ups and downs, and good luck can't last forever.
Seeing that there was no more interesting show to watch, the onlookers gradually dispersed and went to study the Originium.
Lin Jia was now the only one left by Luo Qianqiu's side, a stark contrast to the scene where he had been surrounded by people just moments before.
But soon, the crowd gathered again, their eyes almost drowning out their envy.
"Another shipment has been made, ten catties of pure source. Although it can't compare to that fiery red source, it's still ten times more valuable."
"This guy is incredibly lucky. He got two great deals in one day. Compared to that, the loss he suffered the second time is nothing."
Not long after,
"My God, another shipment! One piece of Green Leaf Source is worth twenty kilograms of Pure Source!"
"Is this guy some kind of master of Source Arts, pretending to be weak to fool us?"
"Once could be attributed to luck, twice could be considered a stroke of good fortune, but three large shipments in one day can't be attributed to luck; there must be work to be done."
The onlookers realized what was happening and their gazes towards Luo Qianqiu changed. They felt that this person must have real skills, and it couldn't be a coincidence.
"Little master, let's go to the third courtyard; there are bound to be even more good things there."
"I've been eyeing a source stone in the third courtyard for a long time, but I haven't dared to make a move. Little Master, go and see if there's a big one there."
Luo Qianqiu was in a dilemma. He felt that he had gained enough for today, but the onlookers grabbed him and led him to the third courtyard.
Looking at the bitter face of the gambling stone shop owner, he really wanted to say to the people around him, "You have really ruined my life."
Soon, Luo Qianqiu was carried by the crowd and swept through the third, fourth, and finally fifth courtyards, reaping a total harvest of over 500 jin of source energy.
The owner of the jade gambling shop was ashen-faced and his eyes went black. If it weren't for the reputation of the jade gambling shop, he would have wanted to close down and rectify the situation immediately.
Just from today's incident, half a year's profits have probably been wiped out.
Fortunately, Luo Qianqiu didn't really go all out; he stopped in time after earning 500 jin of resources.
This jade gambling venture yielded a great deal, confirming many of Luo Qianqiu's suspicions, but at the same time, it also exposed his shortcomings.
Some Originium stones, for some unknown reason, undergo a drastic change in their 'potential,' but when cut open, they reveal nothing.
Even Luo Qianqiu would be fooled in this situation and unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
Ultimately, he wasn't Crocodile Ancestor himself; he could only rigidly observe the "situation" without being able to distinguish the differences within it.
"It seems I should learn some Source Techniques when I have the chance. I'm too limited right now. The 'potential' of many strange stones is mysterious and unpredictable, and I might stumble if I don't know."
That night, in the private room of the top-tier inn in the city, Luo Qianqiu pondered to himself.
But soon, he suppressed the matter in his heart and began to think about the things at hand.
Now, relying on this method of observing the "situation", he can amass five hundred catties of source in a single day, and for a short time, he will no longer have to worry about cultivation resources.
If that's the case, then we should focus on cultivation first; improving our cultivation level is the most important thing.
"Resources that are not converted into strength are like hoarding food for others. There's no need to accumulate enough before using them."
Thinking this, Luo Qianqiu took out 100 jin of pure source, gave some to Lin Jia, and then began to absorb the essence in the source to cultivate.
A surge of powerful and pure essence was drawn out from the source and then poured into Luo Qianqiu's entire body through the pores of his skin. His whole body was radiating a blazing divine light, and every inch of his body was exquisite and translucent.
boom!
A powerful aura permeated the air, spreading wildly outwards. But at that moment, countless Dao patterns glowed in the room, firmly sealing off this aura and preventing even a wisp of it from escaping.
Even if it's just a wall away, no one can detect what's going on here.
This level of application of Dao patterns would surely amaze countless cultivators.
Inside the room, Luo Qianqiu was radiant with vitality, his entire being brimming with life force. Strange phenomena and various sounds emanated from within his sea of consciousness.
The phenomenon of the Sea of Wheels arising is something that should not happen to a mortal body. However, after several transformations, Luo Qianqiu's physique has changed drastically. In terms of sheer strength, it surpasses most special physiques.
If someone were to see Luo Qianqiu's sea of suffering at this moment, they would never think that he was just a mortal, but rather that he possessed some unknown special physique similar to that of a mortal.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the room became increasingly terrifying, like an active volcano about to erupt.
After an unknown amount of time, a loud bang resounded, and Luo Qianqiu's body trembled as a terrifying pressure erupted from within him.
He broke through and entered the peak of the Other Shore Realm!
But the cultivation is not over. After reaching the peak of the Other Shore Realm, one needs to undergo nine transformations. Once one survives these nine transformations, it is equivalent to being reborn.
Luo Qianqiu did not intend to proceed separately; the moment his cultivation broke through, he smoothly entered the process of the ninth transformation.
Legend has it that the ancient masters who cultivated a single secret realm began from here, using powerful mental techniques and ancient secret arts to complement each other, specializing in the cultivation of the Sea of Wheels.
Luo Qianqiu did not intend to cultivate a single secret realm, nor did he have the conditions to do so even if he wanted to, so his transformation process was normal.
On the first day, his body was radiant and at its peak, but as night fell, it began to decline and gradually decay, with even his internal organs ceasing to function, like a piece of dead wood that had lost its vitality.
But as the sun rises, the withered trees come back to life, and vitality gradually returns, becoming even stronger, resulting in tremendous changes.
This process is magical, like a silkworm breaking out of its cocoon, each time bringing new life, and the body becomes stronger on the original basis.
After nine transformations, it underwent a complete qualitative change, as if it had been reborn.
Within the room sealed by Dao patterns, divine light shone brightly, and life essence surged. Luo Qianqiu's blood essence was reborn, flowing like a great river, endless and boundless.
Not only that, his heart was beating incredibly violently, like a drum pounding, causing the Dao patterns to flicker erratically; his internal organs were also vibrating in unison, like a resounding ancient war melody, regular and orderly; his bones cracked and snapped, breaking and then being reforged until each one was as clear and translucent as jade.
This dramatic change is the result of nine transformations that have brought about a complete metamorphosis.
Luo Qianqiu opened his eyes and felt the immense power within his body, which was many times stronger than before his transformation.
At this moment, he was confident that he could hold his untransformed self down with one hand.
"You're awake!" Lin Jia's voice rang out in surprise. She quickly stepped forward to Luo Qianqiu's side and asked with concern, "How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"
Heaven knows how she endured those ten days, watching Luo Qianqiu fall into desolation time and time again, each time fearing that he would not recover and would be completely extinguished.
Fortunately, Luo Qianqiu finally opened his eyes this time.
