I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency Chapter 36

Chapter 36

To think performing Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens once had actually cost him all of his luck value.

This was something that Lu Yuan had not expected.

…

Looking at the remaining 10 points of luck, the more Lu Yuan thought about it, the angrier he became.

What could he do with these 10 remaining points of luck?

Wasn’t this just insulting?!

It was also at this moment that Lu Yuan finally recalled a detailed description of the “Destined Lucky Star” luck talent.

Under normal circumstances, his luck value would not be depleted.

There was one exception. When he obtained a great opportunity, his luck value would be consumed.

Previously, when Lu Yuan distributed luck, it was always during pill refinement and skill breakthrough. No matter how one looked at it, those two situations were not particularly great opportunities. This was because even though they could improve his strength, the improvement was very limited.

However, Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens was different.

The Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens this time was a huge opportunity that could change Lu Yuan’s future.

If he were to fail, it would definitely have a huge impact on his future.

Thus, it fulfilled the objective definition of “a great opportunity”.

After thinking about it carefully, it did make sense. If one wasn’t a person with great luck, why could one successfully achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens and not someone else?

Although Lu Yuan was very unwilling to accept that his luck value had almost been exhausted, there was nothing more he could say since it had already happened.

When he saw the information about his water and metal spiritual roots after achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, his mood immediately improved.

[Water and metal spiritual roots (Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens)]

[Effect: Water and metal spiritual root aptitudes +100 points, cultivation efficiency of water and metal divine abilities and cultivation techniques increased by 200%]

After achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, his water and metal spiritual root aptitudes had both increased by 100 points each.

A hundred points, a full hundred points!

An ordinary person’s total spiritual root aptitude was only 100 points.

With the addition of these 100 points of spiritual root aptitude to Lu Yuan’s original spiritual root aptitude, his water and metal spiritual root aptitudes had now reached an astonishing 200 points each.

Although in terms of single spiritual root aptitudes, Lu Yuan was still not as good as My Qiqi, who had a single spiritual root aptitude of over 300 points.

However, he could currently crush 99% of the people in the sect.

If his single spiritual root aptitude could be said to be at the bottom among the sect members previously, his water and metal spiritual roots were definitely among the best in the sect now.

The benefits of Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens did not stop here.

After achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, Lu Yuan’s speed of cultivating water and metal-type cultivation techniques and divine abilities had been doubled.

His comprehension of these two attributes’ divine powers and cultivation techniques had greatly improved.

His water and metal spiritual root aptitudes were already extraordinarily high, and now his comprehension of these two attributes’ divine abilities and cultivation techniques had increased as well.

If he were in a game, it would be a double explosive improvement in both “talent” and “comprehension ability”.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Lu Yuan had been reborn!

Compared to his gains of Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, the loss of a mere thousand luck points didn’t seem to be that unacceptable anymore!

Besides, to Lu Yuan, luck value was a resource that he could continuously obtain. In contrast, aptitude and comprehension ability were not things that could be obtained easily.

All in all, using more than 1000 points of luck value in exchange for two spiritual roots achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens was a choice that anyone would make.

After confirming his gains and losses, Lu Yuan’s state of mind stabilized.

As the saying goes, out with the old and in with the new.

Although he had used up his current luck value, he could save up more.

It was just that his original plan of achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for the wind spiritual roots could only be postponed.

Moreover, the demoness Meng Ruyan had left the sect again. In the short term, Lu Yuan would not be able to find a better way to obtain luck value.

Although increasing his cultivation, advancing his skills, and raising his status could also increase his luck value, compared to obtaining luck directly from demoness Meng Ruyan, those channels were not only troublesome, but the rewards were also average.

That being said, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. Before demoness Meng Ruyan was back, he could only use those outdated methods to obtain luck value.

After reading the descriptions, Lu Yuan was prepared to experience his current strength.

He wanted to see what was so special about Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens that he had to give up so much luck value!

After Lu Yuan confirmed that there was no one around, he came to the open space outside his residence.

In the next second, he activated the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.

As the water and metal spiritual energy in his body circulated, an illusionary image of a black tortoise enveloped Lu Yuan’s body.

Under the support of the black tortoise illusion, not only did Lu Yuan obtain an outstanding spiritual energy barrier, but even his physical strength increased by quite a bit.

Immediately after, Lu Yuan started to test the strength of the black tortoise’s power.

In terms of defense, he realized that just relying on the green-colored black tortoise’s spiritual energy barrier was enough for him to perfectly block the full-powered attack of a level 3 Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.

He could even slightly resist the attack of a level 5 Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator now.

That being said, blocking the attack of a level 5 Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator was already the limit of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.

Any more and Lu Yuan wouldn’t be able to block it.

The additional strength brought by the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique allowed Lu Yuan to have the strength of a level 3 Qi Cultivation Stage body cultivator.

In fact, the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique was a body cultivation technique.

It was just that this cultivation technique would only become a pure body cultivation technique at the Core Formation Stage. The early stages were mainly to nurture the power of the black tortoise and condense the will of the black tortoise, which wasn’t much different from an ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique.

As for why there were the words “Nine Guard” in the name of this technique, it represented the cultivation tiers of this technique.

Lu Yuan had currently only reached the “First Guard” tier, which was equivalent to obtaining one unit of the black tortoise’s power.

When he reached the “Nine Guard” tier, it would be when he had reached perfection for the Foundation Establishment Stage of this cultivation technique.

The defensive power of the ancient black tortoise was obvious to all in the celestial cultivation world.

Furthermore, Lu Yuan had achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens. His basic spiritual energy storage and recovery speed were not something cultivators of the same stage could compare to.

It could be said that unless one had a magic item or magic instrument that far exceeded his current stage, otherwise, even if Lu Yuan stood still and let cultivators below level 3 of the Foundation Establishment Stage beat him up, they wouldn’t even be able to break his “spiritual energy tortoiseshell”.

After the experiment, Lu Yuan was extremely satisfied with the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.

Wasn’t such a strong defense exactly what he wanted?

One word, steady!

After the experiment, Lu Yuan started to plan for his future.

His priority was to increase his luck value to at least 1400 points.

After that, he would think of a way to obtain a natural treasure that could help his wind spiritual root achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.

These two things could be done at the same time.

Once his wind spiritual root also achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, Lu Yuan would then have three spiritual roots that had achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, as well as obtain astonishing escape speed.

His defense would be extraordinarily high, and he could also run fast.

To this, Lu Yuan could only say that it was adding steadiness to steadiness, just extremely steady!

Other than the fact that his self-preserving methods would be greatly improved, achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for the wind spiritual root would also be very beneficial to Lu Yuan’s future.

Imagine if he could achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for all six spiritual roots.

At that time, not only would each of his spiritual roots have a terrifying aptitude of 200 points, but even his overall spiritual root aptitude would reach an astonishing 1200 points.

In Qingyun Sect, one could already be considered a historical genius if one’s spiritual root aptitude exceeded 1000 points. They were those heavens’ favorites who had guaranteed promising futures!

At the thought of this, Lu Yuan suddenly felt that his decision to wait to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens was too f*cking wise.

Achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens and not achieving so were two completely different things!

While he was overjoyed, Lu Yuan seemed to have recalled something. He immediately respectfully bowed to the sky and said in a very sincere tone, ” I, Lu Yuan, a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, would like to thank the heavens for your bestowment.”

“My success in achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens today has little to do with me. It’s all thanks to the heavens’ care. I will never forget the grace you have shown me today, heavens. To live up to the heavens’ cultivation, I promise to do more good deeds in the future and accumulate more merits, doing what little I can to help build a beautiful world of celestial cultivation for the heavens.”

Lu Yuan didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that after he said this, the stars in the sky above his head became much brighter.

It was like an old father was looking at his good son… It was especially kind!

It was truly a good scene of a loving father and a filial son!

A good son of the heavens, cultivator Lu Yuan who never went against the heavens had successfully achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens!
