Chapter 508: Chapter 292: Cultivation Breakthrough, Comprehensive Improvement
He also made four delightful discoveries.
First, a batch of key Medicinal Materials for the Youthful Appearance Pill had matured and were ready for use. He immediately harvested them, placed them into a Jade Box to Seal them, and planned to begin refining at a later date.
After harvesting, he naturally used the True Intent of his Rongsheng Divine Abilities to revive the Roots and replant them.
Second, the two main ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill that he had planted, the Celestial Crystal Spirit Lotus and the Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng, had also been successfully harvested. All he needed was for a Cultivator with Seven-Star Spirit Moon Grass to show up, and he could begin refining.
This meant that he would have, at a minimum, one Masterpiece Foundation Establishment Pill and one Genuine Foundation Establishment Pill. If he performed well, he could end up with two Masterpiece Foundation Establishment Pills.
The more of a strategic resource like this he had, the better. Whether he sold them for Spirit Stones, bartered them for other items, or gave them to a High Tier Cultivator to curry favor, all were excellent options.
Third, he discovered that the Black Armored Earth Turtle’s Cultivation was nearly overflowing—a sign that it was about to break through to Tier Two Middle Stage.
"So fast?"
Lin Changheng noticed this while teasing Xiaohai to build their bond.
If Lin Changheng remembered correctly, it had only been a little over twenty years since Xiaohai broke through to Tier Two.
Logically, turtle-type Demon Beasts had long lifespans, but their strength progressed quite slowly. They basically relied on time to grind their way up. After reaching Tier Two, taking thirty or forty years to advance one Small Tier was normal.
As far as Lin Changheng was concerned, the faster Xiaohai’s strength progressed, the better. There was no reason to be unhappy.
However, this breakthrough was something it had to rely on itself to achieve. Thus, Lin Changheng warned it to build a solid and stable foundation before making the attempt, to avoid the risk of failure as much as possible.
And fourth—
The Cyan-striped Tiger, Xiaoqing, was also improving its strength at a breakneck pace and had now reached Tier One Late Stage.
Its feeding method was no different from the Black Armored Earth Turtle’s back then, yet its growth rate was just this fast.
Lin Changheng speculated that although the Cyan-striped Tiger also possessed a Profound Spirit Bloodline, it was more outstanding than Xiaohai’s among bloodlines of the same level. Or perhaps its Wind Element Alien Species Bloodline was playing a role.
Its bloodline Talent was likely even more prominent than that of the Cyan-striped Male Tiger he had seen outside the waterfall. If it maintained this speed, there was even a hope of it breaking through to Tier Three.
...
After paying a visit to his two neighbors, Lin Changheng began his closed-door cultivation in earnest.
He had realized that the Song-Jin War could bring about unpredictable changes!
’I must further enhance my Cultivation!’
Currently, Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators were no match for Lin Changheng. His formidable "stat panel" strength made it seem like as long as Fake Core Cultivators didn’t show up, he could, if not walk sideways through the Song Territory, at least swagger around without issue.
But that was under normal circumstances—normal circumstances without any unforeseen incidents!
Once chaos erupted, who knew what Fake Core or even True Core cultivators might come out to play? Lin Changheng’s bit of Cultivation really wouldn’t be enough to look at.
Therefore, this time, he decided that he would absolutely not leave the island until his Cultivation broke through to the Sixth Layer of Foundation Establishment.
After that, he would plan for his Body Refining breakthrough and matters concerning the Magical Treasure Embryo to further enhance his strength. This would give him more confidence in the face of the impending chaos.
...
「Two years passed in a flash.」
Such a span of time might mean a child growing up or a change in livelihood for a mortal, but for Lin Changheng, who was in secluded cultivation with his Heart and Spirit immersed in comprehension, it was merely the time it took for his Magical Power to run a few Grand Circulations—gone in the flick of a finger.
At this moment, deep within Moonrest Island, inside a secret chamber.
The pure Spiritual Qi that had been churning restlessly in the air had long since calmed, replaced by a silence that was introverted to the extreme.
Lin Changheng sat cross-legged in the center of the Spirit Gathering Array, his figure like a withered tree or a steadfast boulder. The aura around him was restrained, as if he had merged with his surroundings, his heartbeat and breath barely audible.
However, within his Dantian and Qi Sea, it was a completely different scene!
The slowly rotating seed of the Dark Radiance Profound Flame, which exuded a profound aura, occupied the center of his Dantian. It continuously pulsed with a deep golden Flame, like a king ruling its domain.
The Magical Power generated from his Circulations of Cultivation surged through his broad, tough meridians, letting out a low roar like a great river’s tide before flowing into his Dantian. Drawn by the Flame, it all spiraled around the seed with a continuous SIZZLE. It seemed to be undergoing a second refinement before flowing like viscous lava into the "Magical Power Lake."
It was incredibly full, on the verge of overflowing.
Because there were no thick bottlenecks between the small stages of the Foundation Establishment Stage, Lin Changheng directly initiated the breakthrough.
"Now!"
The meditating Lin Changheng’s tightly shut eyes snapped open. Deep within his pupils, two clusters of deep golden flame seemed to ignite abruptly!
His hands formed a profound Technique in front of him!
BOOM—!
Like a dam bursting, like a volcano erupting!
The pure Magical Power, long accumulated and already saturated, seemed to find an outlet at this moment, washing through him like a flood from a broken dike!
Inside the secret chamber, an invisible storm of Spiritual Qi suddenly swirled up with Lin Changheng at its center! If not for the reinforcing Array he had set up beforehand to isolate it, the entire Moonrest Island would have likely felt this violent fluctuation of Magical Power.
Beneath his skin, streams of light could be faintly seen darting about rapidly—the external manifestation of his Magical Power operating at its Limit. The veins on his forehead bulged slightly, but his eyes were clear and determined as he guarded his Heart and Spirit, Guiding this Frenzy of power.
CRACK...
A subtle cracking sound echoed, seemingly from the depths of his soul.
In that instant, a vast new horizon opened up!
An even vaster space for Magical Power to circulate was opened. The rampaging torrent of Magical Power was like a river that had found a wider channel, flowing more smoothly and majestically! His Dantian and Qi Sea expanded once again, and the total amount of Magical Power he could contain rose by a significant step!
