Chapter 48:1 am Indeed Going Down the Mountain, but I Didn’t Say I Would Do it Immediately

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

To be honest, Lu Yuan had his eyes on the herb fields for a long time.

…

It was just that he had not mastered many pill recipes before, so although he had indeed secretly used many herbs from the herb fields, most of them were used to refine marrow-cleansing pills.

The herbs used to make the marrow-cleansing pill were precious in the outside world, but in these herb fields, they were not particularly valuable.

This was also the reason why Han Yuanshan did not question Lu Yuan even after he found out that his herb fields were missing some herbs that should not be missing.

It was nothing else other than the wealthiness of a Core Formation Stage pharmacist!

But now, five years have passed.

Not only had Lu Yuan learned many pill recipes from Elder Han, but his Pill Refinement Technique had improved a lot as well.

…..

As a result, he could now refine many high-level pills.

In other words, many of the medicinal herbs in the fields could be of use to him.

The reason why Lu Yuan had returned secretly was to refine two very special pills.

The first was the earth spirit pill, which could assist in the cultivation of the special earth-type divine ability, Gilded Sand.

The other was the wind spirit pill, which could assist in the cultivation of the special wind-type divine ability, Formless Squall.

The reason why these two pills were named in such a way was that they didn’t have fixed effects.

The effects of the pills were largely determined by the materials used during the refinement.

The wind spirit pill made from the blood essence of a demon king would produce largely different effects from the wind spirit pill made from the blood essence of a great demon.

To cultivate Formless Squall, he needed the wind spirit pill.

To cultivate Gilded Sand, he naturally needed the earth spirit pill.

Gilded Sand was a divine ability Lu Yuan obtained from Mu Qiqi.

He had also obtained another special divine ability called the Aura Concealment Technique.

Currently, not only had Lu Yuan cultivated the Aura Concealment Technique to the maximum level, but he had also completed the assessment and advanced it.

The advanced Aura Concealment Technique had evolved to become the Aura Obscurity Technique.

[Aura Obscurity Technique (level 2,140/2000): Able to greatly conceal one’s aura. Even a cultivator’s spiritual sense cannot easily detect it.]

Thanks to this divine ability, Lu Yuan discovered that even Core Formation realm cultivators could not sense his exact cultivation.

This was also the reason why the demoness Meng Ruyan had only said that Lu Yuan’s current cultivation was close to hers, but she was not completely certain.

It was because even though she had many intimate interactions with Lu Yuan, she was still unable to sense his exact cultivation level.

As for Lu Yuan, who had obtained the system for so many years, he had more or less figured out what made advanced skills more powerful than ordinary skills.

Most initial skills only had some ordinary functions and didn’t have many special features.

However, the advanced skills were different. They usually had some special effects.

Even if it was just an ordinary skill at the start, it would also achieve an effect comparable to a divine ability after advancement.

The difference between an initial skill and a skill that had undergone its first advancement was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment Stage divine ability.

The difference between an initial skill and a skill that had undergone its second advancement was comparable to that of a Core Formation Stage divine ability.

Up until now, Lu Yuan had yet to achieve a second advancement in any of his skills.

After all, the proficiency required to cultivate a skill that had undergone its first advancement to the maximum level was ten times more than before.

Therefore, it was not easy to cultivate a skill that had undergone its first advancement to the maximum level.

Fortunately, as his level increased, the proficiency points he gained from practicing his skills also increased.

Therefore, in general, the speed at which he cultivated advanced skills was slower than that of skills that had not advanced, but the overall speed was not much slower.

As Lu Yuan’s understanding of the skill interface grew deeper, he was also becoming increasingly experienced in increasing his proficiency.

There were two ways to quickly increase one’s proficiency.

One was to repeat the same training method with high intensity. The proficiency points gained through this method were average, but it was more stable.

For example, Lu Yuan’s daily routine of refining pills was this method. During pill refinement, he did not deliberately practice any skills, but the proficiency of the skills used in pill refinement would have obvious increase.

On the other hand, the other method was to focus on practicing a certain skill.

By doing so, the proficiency of a single skill would increase very quickly.

This could be seen in Lu Yuan’s Swordsmanship.

After Lu Yuan had completed the assessment set by his master, Han Yuanshan, he put the cultivation of his combat skills on the agenda.

Swordsmanship and other similar skills were the skills that Lu Yuan cultivated the most during that time.

After Lu Yuan learned the Sword Control Technique, elementary Swordsmanship had been incorporated into the Sword Control Technique.

After another four years of cultivation, Lu Yuan’s Sword Control Technique advanced into a new skill, the Wind Riding Sword Control Technique.

[Wind-riding Sword Control Technique (1598/5000): Double the speed of the sword,]

The “double” here was based on Lu Yuan himself and not others.

Let’s put it this way. Lu Yuan’s current cultivation was at level 3 of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, his normal speed of traveling on the sword while not using any skills was already comparable to the speed of a cultivator at level 6 of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If he were to include his wind spiritual root that had achieved Foundation establishment through the way of the heavens, as well as the cultivation technique Breeze Mystical Scripture, his instantaneous flying speed could even be comparable to a cultivator at level 8 of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Putting aside the offensive power of such a flying sword, Lu Yuan was definitely the fastest among his peers when it came to the speed of traveling on his sword!

Divine ability Wind-riding Sword Control Technique + cultivation technique Breeze Mystical Scripture + wind spiritual root that had achieved Foundation Establishement through the way of the heavens = invincible escape abilities!

That’s right. After Lu Yuan had obtained the blood essence of the bird-type demon king from his master, Han Yuanshan, four years ago, he successfully completed the Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for his wind Spiritual root.

As such, he now had three spiritual roots that had achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.

Compared to the sect’s number one genius, Mu Qiqi, he already had one more spiritual root that had achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.

Still, Lu Yuan was not satisfied.

What he really wanted was to reach Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for all nine spiritual roots.

Following that, he would accomplish the feat of forming a golden core through the way of the heavens!

The nine spiritual roots he needed were metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, yin, and yang.

Among them, Lu Yuan had already obtained the wind spiritual root, which was not one of the five elements.

There were three left: lightning, yin, and yang.

However, Lu Yuan could not obtain these three acquired spiritual roots for the time being.

This was because the Qingyun Sect did not have records on how to form these three acquired spiritual roots.

If he wanted the specific cultivation techniques for these three spiritual roots, Lu Yuan would have to find them himself.

For this, Lu Yuan gave himself a hundred years.

If he couldn’t find the cultivation technique of these three acquired spiritual roots within a hundred years, he would use the spiritual roots he had at that time to condense the golden core.

This was Lu Yuan’s “first hundred-year plan”, or “hundred-year plan 1.0” for short.

And in “hundred-year plan 1.0”, Lu Yuan had countless five-year plans.

His five-year plan had been updated to version 2.0.

[Five-year plan 2.0] [1. Complete the second advancement for at least one skill.] [2. Achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for at least one spiritual root.] [3. Learn at least one special attribute’s divine ability.]

In the five-year plan 2.0, the task of achieving Foundation establishment through the way of the heavens for at least one spiritual root had been completed.

This spiritual root was the heavens’ wind spiritual root.

As for the tasks of “complete the second advancement for at least one skill” and “learn at least one special attribute’s divine ability”, Lu Yuan was prepared to finish them before he left the mountain.

Now, his Metaphysical Pill Refinement Technique was almost at the maximum level and was about to meet the conditions for advancement.

As for the special divine abilities, the pills needed for the special divine abilities Gilded Sand and Formless Squall could also be refined today.

Therefore, these two tasks of the “five-year plan 2.0” could soon be completed by Lu Yuan.

In any case, his master had only told him to go down the mountain as soon as possible for the expedition, but he didn’t say that he had to go immediately.

…..

Since he didn’t say that… Let’s just treat it as if he didn’t need to go down the mountain immediately!

In terms of respecting his master, Lu Yuan felt that he had always been very good at it.

He was able to understand his master’s every word and interpret it as he wanted.

This was one of Lu Yuan’s precious strengths!

At the thought of this, the last bit of psychological burden in Lu Yuan’s heart was gone.

Not long after, an excited and strange laugh came from the calm herb fields.

Kekeke…
