Chapter 57: “Good-for-Nothing” Cultivation Technique
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
It took half a day.
The first large-scale selection of the Chen family’s immortal seedlings since Chen Xianhe took over the Chen family for fifty years ended here.
Changping County Yamen.
Looking at the eight children in front of him, the oldest was ten years old, and the youngest was no more than five years old, Chen Daoxuan was filled with emotions.
In fact, he knew that there were definitely more immortal seedlings hidden among the adult group of the Chen family.
However, compared to these children who were less than ten years old, the cost-effectiveness of raising adult immortal seedlings was too low.
Chen Daoxuan decisively chose to give up.
With Chen Daolan and the other eight, as well as Chen Daochu, who had been cultivating in Chen Daoxuan’s cave abode, the number of cultivators in the Chen family, or rather, the number of future cultivators, finally broke through the double-digit number and reached as many as eleven.
Of course.
If he wanted these nine little fellows to truly become Qi Condensation cultivators, he would have to establish the clan’s spirit vein first.
Otherwise, when they entered the meditational stage and realized that they did not have enough spiritual energy to cultivate, it would be a big problem.
Regarding this, Chen Daoxuan was quite confident.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Chen family’s first spirit vein would be cultivated within half a year at the latest.
Chen Daoxuan’s confidence still came from the transaction with the merfolk race.
It had to be said that the merfolk market was more than a hundred times smaller than the large number of itinerant cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
However, at the same time, the Chen family could only earn a profit of 19 spirit stones from selling a low-grade level one flying sword to an itinerant cultivator. This was not even including the taxes collected by the Zhou family of Guang ‘an Prefecture.
However, he could earn 469 spirit stones from trading with the merfolk, which was more than twenty times the profit.
From the looks of it…
Although the merfolk market was not as large as the Guang ‘an Prefecture market, it was still a very important market for the Chen family.
Especially for the current Chen family.
The merfolk needed fewer magic tools, but the profits were huge. It was the most suitable for the Chen family.
Copper Mountains.
Chen Daoxuan’s cave.
A group of nine people flew in the wind and slowly flew toward the cave abode.
When everyone descended, Chen Daoxuan heaved a sigh of relief.
This was the first time he had used the Wind Manipulation Technique to fly with so many people. Fortunately, nothing went wrong.
“This is where you will be staying for the next few years.”
Chen Daoxuan turned around and said to the group of children behind him.
Perhaps it was because the living environment was much worse than in his previous life, and the children in this world were much more mature than those of the same age in his previous life.
Therefore, even the youngest five-year-old child didn’t make any noise when he heard this.
Seeing this, Chen Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction.
Perhaps he had heard the commotion outside the cave abode.
A young figure rushed out of the cave dwelling with a long sword in his hand. It was Chen Daochu, whom he had not seen for several months.
Chen Daochu was strong and vigorous. When he saw Chen Daoxuan, he was stunned at first, then he immediately pointed his sword down and cupped his hands at Chen Daoxuan/’Greetings, Young Patriarch!”
Chen Daoxuan smiled and said, “”Dao Chu, you came at the right time. I’ll introduce you to a few clansmen. From now on, you’ll live together and learn to get along well, understand?”
“Yes, Young Clan Leader!”
The little ones looked at each other and then replied in unison.
“Yes.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded and let them introduce themselves.
Everyone was of the same age. Even the oldest, Chen Daoxuan, was only six years older than a ten-year-old child.
After the introduction, everyone quickly became familiar with each other.
“Brother Daochu, I heard from my father that you’re Factory Manager Chen’s son, right?”
“Brother Dao Chu, how long have you been cultivating here? What is the life of an immortal like?”
“Brother Dao Chu…”
H H
Everyone respected Chen Daoxuan and didn’t dare to disturb him easily. However, they were much closer to Chen Daochu, who was of the same age.
Chen Daochu patiently explained the life in Red Copper Mountain to everyone.
Finally, they had a certain understanding of the environment of the cave abode on Red Copper Mountain.
He settled down the eight Chen family immortal seedlings in the courtyard of the cave abode.
Chen Daoxuan walked into his training room.
“Phew!”
In these ten days, he first settled the Yun Nation’s female slaves and then organized the selection of the Chen clan’s immortal seedlings, which exhausted Chen Daoxuan quite a bit.
When he returned to the cave, Chen Daoxuan only wanted to lie on the bed and sleep.
However, the habit that he had developed over the years still made him drag his tired body to the spiritual eyes of the cultivation room.
He opened the stone lid that sealed the spiritual eye.
A large amount of spiritual energy immediately came out, but the sharp Chen Daoxuan still discovered that the spiritual energy coming out of this spiritual eye had decreased.
Chen Daoxuan’s face darkened when he saw this.
“Back then, the cultivators of the Immortal generation in the clan found a total of seven spiritual eyes in the Red Copper Mountains. This spiritual eye was the one that was least used. Now, it’s time for the spiritual energy to gradually dry up.”
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan felt somewhat uncomfortable in his heart.
After all, this spiritual eye had accompanied him for 11 years of cultivation. It could be said that Chen Daoxuan’s current cultivation was all thanks to this spiritual eye.
And now.
This spiritual eye was about to dry up.
It wasn’t that he was worried about not having spiritual energy to cultivate. Chen Daoxuan just felt that it was a little difficult to accept emotionally.
He finally understood the look of desolation on Chen Xianhe’s face when he heard about the depletion of the cuprite mine.
It wasn’t because he was reluctant to part with the exhaustion of cultivation resources, but because he was lamenting over the years that had passed.
“How can a rainbow appear without going through the wind and rain? How can a terracotta warrior become a butterfly without breaking out of its cocoon?”
Chen Daoxuan quickly adjusted his state of mind and smiled. Unknowingly, his Dao heart became even more determined.
He took out a Water Spirit Pearl from his storage bag and took a Chi-amassing Pill. After more than a month, Chen Daoxuan once again felt the violent cultivation speed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
The next day.
After silently reciting the Primordial Enlightenment Scripture and storing a stardust in his sea of consciousness, Chen Daoxuan opened his eyes after a night of cultivation.
Chen Daoxuan smiled in satisfaction as he felt the abundant True Qi in his dantian circling in his strengthened Sea of Qi.
He seemed to have thought of something.
Chen Daoxuan took out a jade slip from his storage bag.
This jade slip was none other than the body-tempering cultivation technique he had bought at the Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Zhou Auction House-the Dragon Python Heaven-devouring Technique.
Over the past month since he obtained this cultivation technique, Chen Daoxuan had long comprehended it with the help of the enlightenment characteristics of the Primordial Enlightenment Scripture.
Speaking of which, the difficulty of cultivating this body-tempering cultivation technique was relatively low.
It wasn’t even much higher than Chen Daoxuan’s main cultivation technique, the Origins Returning Technique.
One should know that Chen Daoxuan’s main cultivation method was the ” Return to Origin Technique “, which was the most common basic Qi Refinement Stage cultivation method in the Qianyuan Sword Sect. It was most suitable for Qi Refinement Stage disciples to build their foundation.
Although the Origin Returning Technique did not have any attribute bonuses, it was a fair and peaceful technique that was easy to cultivate.
Once a cultivator successfully reached Foundation Establishment, no matter what cultivation technique they chose, there would not be too much of an obstacle.
Therefore, this technique was the most popular in the Infinite Star Sea and was practiced by most Refinement Stage cultivators.
But now, Chen Daoxuan discovered that the difficulty of cultivating this Dragon Python Heaven-devouring Technique was actually comparable to the Guiyuan Technique. This made him feel as if he had obtained a precious treasure.
“According to the Dragon Python Heaven-devouring Technique, the cultivation technique consumes the most spiritual energy, but all kinds of precious ingredients, such as demon beast meat, spiritual rice, spiritual fruits, and so on.”
Chen Daoxuan looked at the introduction on the jade slip and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.” Why do 1 feel that this isn’t a body-refining technique, but a good-for-nothing technique? It’s really worthy of the name ‘Heaven Swallowing..’”
