A Mortal’s Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu’s Rebirth as the Reincarnation Dao Ancestor - Chapter 25
Chapter 25 Abundant Harvest
The magical power quickly erased the mark of the Golden Light Venerable on the storage bag.
After all, this was only a low-level storage bag.
It didn’t have the “locking and anti-theft” ability of a high-level storage bag.
Once a low-level storage bag changed hands, it became someone else’s property.
Han Li, being only at the third level of Qi Refining, hadn’t yet developed divine sense. At this moment, he could only use his magical power to examine the items inside the storage bag and take them out one by one.
The next second, five boxes were placed in front of him.
Opening the first, largest jade box, he found a scroll that looked like gold but wasn’t. Upon closer inspection, the scroll was densely filled with the names of members of the Qin family.
“The Qin family genealogy?”
This seemingly useless thing might be useful in the future.
Furthermore,
this scroll could withstand the high temperatures of the fireball spell, indicating that the materials used to refine it were actually excellent magical artifact materials.
Opening the second box, this box was slightly smaller than the first jade box.
Inside were four books.
Opening the first book, his eyes lit up:
“This is the ‘Blazing Flame Technique,’ a basic fire-element cultivation method from the Five Elements Basic Techniques?”
And it’s a complete method with thirteen levels, leading directly to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Opening the second book filled him with even greater joy.
This book contained the complete “Eternal Spring Technique.
” “Excellent, excellent!”
He currently lacked not only the spiritual herbs and medicines needed for cultivation, but also the subsequent cultivation methods.
Because before Doctor Mo left, he only gave him the incantations for the first four levels of the Eternal Spring Technique, not the incantations for the fifth and sixth levels.
In other words, Mo Juren was already wary of his cultivation becoming too high and beyond his control.
That old fellow was shrewd.
“With the subsequent cultivation methods, I won’t have to desperately beg that old scoundrel Mo Juren for cultivation methods.”
…
Flipping through the pages, these cultivation manuals passed down by the Golden Light Master were truly detailed.
They meticulously marked the precautions for practicing.
Clearly, they were valuable experiences accumulated by many generations of the Qin family.
And they also included a large number of spell incantations.
More than twenty basic low-level spells, such as “Wind Control Technique,” “Fireball Technique,” “Object Control Technique,” and “Earth Collapse Technique,” as well as more than ten basic mid-level spells, such as “Diamond Technique,” “Thunderfire Technique,” “Fire Serpent Technique,” “Giant Strength Technique,” and “Earth Spike Technique,” and even two basic high-level spells, “Earth Mountain Technique” and “Circle Light Technique,” all appeared in the fourth book teaching spells.
The detailed cultivation incantations and various precautions excited Han Li greatly:
“Finally, I have protective spells to practice!”
He had already deeply realized that a cultivator who didn’t know how to use spells was completely different from a cultivator who could throw a couple of spells around randomly. A
low-level Qi Refining cultivator with spells, even if it was only at the first level of Qi Refining, was a superior existence compared to ordinary people. No matter if you were a top expert or a divine weapon, a small fireball would burn you to ashes.
Without magical techniques to aid them, even a Qi Refining cultivator at the sixth level is nothing more than a piece of cake in front of a martial arts master.
They are easily manipulated.
Otherwise, how could Doctor Mo dare to scheme against him?
“Mo Juren, Mo Juren…”
“Once I, Han, have learned a few protective techniques…”
“At that time…”
“I want an explanation from you!”
Han Li gritted his teeth.
He felt a strange sense of relief, as if his pent-up anger had been released.
“So, you must live.”
“Live and return to Lanzhou…”
“Live and return to the Mo family…”
From then on, he not only no longer feared Mo Juren, but also looked forward to their next meeting.
…
Then,
a few doubts and feelings arose within him:
“That Jin Guang Shangren clearly has so many techniques to practice, why doesn’t he cultivate them, instead relying solely on the Gray Sword Talisman and the Vajra Talisman?”
“If that guy had even a quick hand seal or a technique that could be cast instantly, I would have had a hard time ambushing him. I would have had to abandon the attack and flee for my life.”
“What made him so decadent and pathetic?”
A comfortable home?
“Indeed, a gentle embrace is a hero’s grave.”
As for why Han Li in the original timeline didn’t obtain these things from Jin Guang Shangren?
It was simply because of that fireball technique.
That high-temperature fireball technique not only burned Jin Guang Shangren to ashes, but also destroyed his storage bag and the precious books inside that couldn’t withstand the damage.
The Vajra Talisman, the flying sword talisman, the Qin family genealogy, and the Ascension Token were unharmed because these four items were either spiritual talismans containing spiritual power that were difficult to burn in a short time, or even more indestructible magical artifacts.
This extra item was a “predictable” yet “unexpected surprise.”
And with the lesson learned from the Golden Light Master, he would absolutely not repeat the same mistake.
…
The third jade box contained a Vajra Talisman.
The fourth jade box contained a Gray Sword Talisman.
The smallest and last box contained what he needed most: the [Ascension Token]!
The Ascension Token was crafted by the seven great immortal sects of Yue Kingdom, awarded to immortal cultivation families who had made significant contributions.
The seven sects were: the Hidden Moon Sect, Spirit Beast Mountain, Giant Sword Sect, Blade Transformation Valley, Heavenly Palace Fortress, Pure Void Sect, and Yellow Maple Valley.
The one in the Golden Light Master’s hand was issued by Yellow Maple Valley, one of the seven sects.
The token’s effect was: whoever held the Ascension Token could approach the issuing sect and receive a Foundation Establishment Pill from that sect, gaining the qualification to join an immortal sect. Furthermore, since the tokens can be transferred and traded by cultivation families, and the issuance of Ascension Tokens dates back to a very long time ago, the sects that issued them have long since “recognized the token, not the person.” Huangfeng Valley is no exception.
He only needs to go to Huangfeng Valley’s gate with the token to ascend to immortality in one step, without needing to consider other entry requirements.
“With this Ascension Token and that Foundation Establishment Pill, as long as I operate properly, I shouldn’t have to worry too much about cultivation resources in the early stages.”
Without the Heavenly Bottle, he would have to enter the Crimson Forbidden Land to obtain a large quantity of rare spiritual herbs, enough to acquire a share worth eight Foundation Establishment Pills.
However, the Crimson Forbidden Land is extremely dangerous, including the threat posed by the forbidden land’s demonic beasts and the Qi Refining stage elites from the seven sects participating in the trials.
One wrong move, and he would perish.
Therefore,
before entering the Crimson Forbidden Land, he must quickly improve his cultivation.
However, rapidly improving cultivation and combat power requires abundant cultivation resources.
The Foundation Establishment Pill brought by the Ascension Token can be used as a bargaining chip to trade with high-level cultivators in Huangfeng Valley for the cultivation resources I need.
“Now, I’m sixteen years old, and my cultivation is still at the peak of the third level of Qi Refining. Calculating the time, there are still about five and a half years until the next Blood Trial of the Seven Sects.”
Five and a half years isn’t a long time, but it’s not short either.
“During this time, how much progress can I make with the resources I get from exchanging a Foundation Establishment Pill?”
A Foundation Establishment Pill is worth about 3500 low-grade spirit stones within Huangfeng Valley.
These spirit stones can buy enough resources, converted into Yellow Dragon Pills and Golden Marrow Pills, to buy about seven or eight hundred bottles, ten pills per bottle, totaling seven or eight thousand pills. (Ten Yellow Dragon Pills and Golden Marrow Pills per bottle are worth about four or five spirit stones.)
In the book, Han Li, after obtaining the Palm Heaven Bottle, initially took only one or two Yellow Dragon Pills and Golden Marrow Pills daily.
After reaching the ninth level of Qi Refining, the daily dosage might increase to three or even four pills.
Let’s calculate: from age 14 to 21 and a half, over a period of seven and a half years, Han Li in the book consumed over 5,500 Yellow Dragon Pills and Golden Marrow Pills. His cultivation reached the eleventh level of Qi Refining.
During this time, the result of four years of pill consumption was an increase in cultivation from the third level of Qi Refining to the peak of the eighth level.
While at the Mo Mansion, he reached the ninth level of Qi Refining in less than three months.
Before entering the Crimson Forbidden Land, it took him nearly three years to reach the eleventh level of Qi Refining.
In other words
, as long as he can make good use of the Foundation Establishment Pill brought by the Ascension Token, he should be able to raise his cultivation to at least the ninth level of Qi Refining in five years. Reaching the tenth level is not impossible.
The remaining spirit stones can be used to purchase some defensive magical artifacts.
