Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 19: No Money to Cultivate Nima's Immortality

He stood up with difficulty in the forest, got into a sitting position, and practiced breathing exercises.

Qi can be clear or turbid, whether it is within one’s own body or between heaven and earth.

The so-called breathing is to inhale the pure spiritual energy between heaven and earth and exhale the turbid and mixed air.

When spitting, try to retain the unrefined spiritual energy in the body as much as possible, and expel the impurities at the same time.

Repeating this process according to the breathing rules set by the mind method to complete a whole cycle is one Zhoutian.

Noticing someone starting to train in the forest, Haruyuki looked over, his large eyes filled with anticipation...

"What's going on?" Lin Jian, who had just finished a round of breathing exercises, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.

This was not the first time that Lin Jian practiced breathing exercises, but it was the first time that he used a top-grade immortal root to do so.

Sects often say that those who have brought a single attribute to the extreme of immortal roots are geniuses, and geniuses are always considered to have a very fast cultivation speed and are invincible in combat power at the same level.

Isn’t this what I am like now?

The forest is full of anticipation.

Then my mentality exploded.

Haruyuki sat off to the side, his eyes twinkling as he asked, "What's going on?"

"My cultivation speed... has slowed down?" Lin Jian's tone was full of hesitation.

After eight years of Qi training, Lin Jian has become so familiar with his own cultivation progress that he is almost as familiar with it as breathing. The current changes are quite obvious, and it is about 30% slower than before.

This undoubtedly made matters worse for his already worrying progress in cultivation.

Haruyuki's eyes lit up, and he was delighted. "You guessed it right!"

Lin Jian suddenly looked up at her, and in a flash he had guessed the reason, "Because of spiritual roots?"

After all, apart from the variable of spiritual roots, he is no different today than in the past.

"That's right." Chunxue looked at him with a smile in her eyes. "It's not necessarily the case that the purer the spiritual roots, the faster the cultivation speed."

For some unknown reason, the cultivators in the lower nine realms still hold on to the old theory of the five elements when looking at spiritual roots.

If the purpose is to refine pills, then the extreme fire attribute can indeed easily control everything inside the furnace.

If the purpose is to stimulate sword energy, then the ultimate gold attribute can naturally make it indestructible.

But it is difficult to have a perfect good thing in the world that you can have both.

The metal element is domineering and fierce, but it is also an expression of extreme concentration.

Xenophobic and tough.

The speed of Qi refining is naturally not that fast.

This is the case with Yang Geng Metal, while Yin Xin Metal will be better.

However, Chunxue's previous fire control performance when refining the elixir in the forest made him certain that Lin Jian's golden spiritual root was most likely inclined towards Yang Geng.

The lethality of Yin Xin Metal is not as strong as Yang Geng's explosive power, but it excels in detailed perception and control.

If the golden spiritual root in the forest tends to be Yin and Xin, then the speed of cultivation will actually be slightly improved after the spiritual root is pure.

Unfortunately, his golden spiritual root belonged to Yang Geng. After it became completely pure, its hard and exclusive characteristics became more and more obvious, so that the speed of cultivation slowed down.

This brand-new theory clearly contradicted the knowledge of immortal cultivation that Lin Jian had acquired over the past eight years. He muttered to himself, "But those with the ultimate single spiritual root are all geniuses..."

This is a fact recognized by everyone in the world of immortal cultivation.

Can a genius with such a slow cultivation speed be called a genius?
According to his past qualifications, he would not be able to establish a foundation even after eight years of Qi training.

If I were to replace it with this immortal golden spiritual root, wouldn't I even be able to reach the late stage of Qi Refining?
Is this reasonable?

This is unreasonable!

"Is it possible that even geniuses aren't as poor as you?" Haruyuki asked with a smile in his eyes.

A bystander sees more clearly. If Lin Jian had such qualifications just based on his own spiritual roots, then he would become the most dazzling new star of Zhengyang Sect when he joined.

All resources will be invested in him.

So what if the cultivation speed is slow?

As long as you invest enough resources, you will have enough spirit stones, magic arrays, and elixirs, which will be much better than the current forest.

After cultivation, the combat power that a cultivator with Yang Geng Gold Spiritual Root in a state of complete victory can exert is simply terrifying. Invincible at the same level, and can kill opponents of higher levels alone.

Unfortunately, his talent only lasts for one day, and it is not his turn to enjoy the resources.

"What the hell?" Realizing this, Lin Jian pinched his hair in frustration, and the plan he had made in his mind fell apart in an instant.

The perpetual motion machine is gone!
Although he is a genius, his cultivation speed has slowed down.

It’s so hard to build a foundation, how can you survive like this?

wrong!

Lin Jian noticed Haruyuki's smug look and realized that he had been aware of this change for a long time.

At the moment, the female sword fairy has a smug look on her face, as if saying "come and beg me", and it is obvious that she has a full grasp of this development.

"Spiritual Root Creation Pill." Lin Jian calmed down. "The Spiritual Root Creation Pill you mentioned before, wasn't it the Five Elements Golden Spirit Pill?"

"Correct!" Chunxue snapped his fingers, a look of delight on his face. "The Fortune Pill I prepared can at least increase your cultivation speed tenfold! It's nothing like those cheap, inferior products your senior brother refines!"

Everything before was just a prelude; she was waiting for this moment.

What's the rank of your senior brother? Is he refining the same elixir as me?
Ok?
"Fuck!" Lin Jian widened his eyes and breathed rapidly.

Ten times?!

How the hell is this?
One day equals ten days, and one year equals ten years.

In fact, it is more than that. The amount of free pocket money that a person who earns 3,000 yuan a month can control is not simply twice as much as that of a person who earns 6,000 yuan a month.

Isn't this taking off?
Haruyuki was very satisfied with the look of shock from his younger brother, and he was in a good mood.

Why did I hide my strength and come to the world of ordinary people? Isn't it just for this good thing?

"When I said you should build your foundation, I meant it. I'll write down the recipe for you now, and you prepare the ingredients according to my instructions. Let's choose a day to build our foundation!"

"The Sword Immortal is awesome!"

……

Lin Jian, who had received the pill formula, remembered something and looked a little grim. "The new Creation Pill is the same as the Golden Spirit Pill. It can only last for one day?"

"Why not?" Haruyuki looked at him matter-of-factly. "Permanent changes take effect slowly, and quick effects last only a short time. Isn't time what you lack most right now?"

"Is it possible that I'm still short of money?" Lin Jian said with a sad face, holding up the pill formula in his hand, "This is the dosage for one pill!"

Three-year-old Lingyuan grass, three cents; five-year-old Qingyun grass, two cents; twenty-year-old Xingchen flower, four cents (only fresh petals); Nine-turn secret recipe liquid, one cent.

Lin Jian has been working for his senior brothers and sisters for many years and is quite familiar with the prices of these relatively common raw materials.

Even if I could refine it myself, the raw materials for one pill would cost five hundred low-grade spirit stones.

After getting beaten up like this today, I can only buy enough pills for twelve days.

Twelve days? What can you do?
Cultivating immortality has always been a long and arduous process that takes years and months.

As expected, if you don’t have money, you can become a fucking immortal!

"Emmmm..." Haruyuki started swinging and turned around, "Don't close the nest."

Lin Jian sat there, his eyes fierce, "At worst, I can wait until my injuries are healed and then go find those physical cultivators to get some gold coins."

I still have a Golden Spirit Pill in my hand, and I can rely on the powerful effect of the Golden Spirit Pill to make a lot of money.

Do as much as you can with the money you have. Isn’t that how I’ve been spending the past eight years?
Right now, he was already in the late stage of Qi Refining, and was only one step away from establishing his foundation. Perhaps after replacing his new spiritual roots, he would be able to establish his foundation soon.

After building the foundation, there are more opportunities to make money, and life will always get better.

Having made up his mind, Lin Jian meditated again.

With no background and no money, the only thing he could do was work hard.

Race against time!

Time passed quietly during meditation, and Lin Jian, whose empty dantian was finally filled with true qi again, slowly opened his eyes.

Every time you look at it, you see a pretty face.

"What is this secret body cultivation technique you just mentioned?"
