Chapter 12
In the private cultivation room, Lu Yuan looked at the green flame that was dancing on his palm. He was very excited.
It hadn’t been easy. To think he had successfully cultivated the Green Flame Technique, which was known to be difficult to cultivate in the Qingyun Sect, on his first try.
Furthermore, there were no accidents during this process. Lu Yuan did not encounter any problems.
Things were as smooth as Dove’s chocolate.
To be honest, the system played a big role in his successful cultivation of the Green Flame Technique.
That being said, his outstanding cultivation talent shouldn’t be underestimated just because of this!
After all, the system had only given him a 97% success rate.
There was still a 3% chance of failure!
It was through his “perseverance and hard work” that he managed to prevent the 3% probability event from happening.
So… Both he and the system were amazing! (Hands on hips proudly)
After lavishly praising himself for some time, Lu Yuan quickly collected his thoughts and began to read the description of the Green Flame Technique.
Now that he had already successfully cultivated the Green Flame Technique, not only did the system interface show his proficiency in the skill, but it also had a more detailed description of the technique.
[Green Flame Technique (level 1)]
[Proficiency: 0/200]
[Effect – Endless Vitality: This divine ability can greatly increase the cultivator’s vitality, spiritual energy recovery speed, and physical recovery speed. The divine ability’s flame released will also bring a certain amount of wood attribute damage.]
In fact, the effects of the Green Flame Technique were explained in the divine ability manual, but how could an outsider’s description be as accurate as the system’s?
Through the system’s explanation, Lu Yuan understood the advantages of the Green Flame Technique compared to ordinary flames.
First of all, as a heavenly flame, the temperature of the green flame was higher than that of ordinary flames.
However, this was a common characteristic among most heavenly flames, so it was not strange.
The true advantage of the green flame was that it had the same exuberant vitality as plants.
This so-called “vitality” was not just a name on the surface but also a metaphor. It meant that the green flame contained a large amount of vitality as if it was alive.
In addition, there were many other benefits to practicing the Green Flame Technique.
For example, after Lu Yuan successfully cultivated the Green Flame Technique, his vitality received a huge boost.
This could be seen from his lifespan on the stats window.
[Lifespan: 20/200]
Compared to before he cultivated the Green Flame Technique, the current Lu Yuan had an additional hundred years of life.
This was all thanks to the Green Flame Technique.
Even Meng Ruyan, who was at level 5 of the Foundation Establishment Stage, only had a lifespan of 350 years.
If Lu Yuan had the same cultivation as Meng Ruyan, his lifespan would definitely be a few hundred years longer than hers.
What did it mean to have a longer lifespan?
It meant that Lu Yuan had a higher fault tolerance!
Did one think that there was only fighting and killing in the celestial cultivation world?
The real competition in the celestial cultivation world was, in fact, who lived the longest!
Killing enemies was no big deal. Only by living would one have a future!
How many talents had lost to time in the end?
Those who seemed to be winning in a card game at first were only winning cards. Those who got the money at the end of the game were the real winners.
Only a living person was worthy of celestial cultivation!
Not only did Lu Yuan think so, but he also acted accordingly.
Therefore, after knowing that the Green Flame Technique could increase one’s lifespan, he chose it without hesitation.
The actual situation did not disappoint him either.
In Lu Yuan’s words, he, who had cultivated the Green Flame Technique, had instantly changed from a fragile body with low health and low defense to a sturdy body with high health and low defense.
As for the problem of low defense, it was not a problem!
As long as he learned more defensive divine abilities and bought more life-saving magic items in the future, it would not be a problem.
Who would be willing to put their life on the line if they could develop steadily?
Looking at his increased lifespan, Lu Yuan finally felt a sense of security.
Now that he had the Green Flame Technique, he finally had the qualifications to refine Foundation Establishment Stage pills.
By relying on his probability-based pill refinement, Lu Yuan was very confident that he would be able to refine a Foundation Establishment Stage pill soon.
At that time, with the pills, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
That being said, there was still some difficulty in refining Foundation Establishment Stage pills.
The problem with getting a Foundation Establishment Stage pill recipe was easy to solve.
In the Qingyun Sect, as long as one became an outer disciple of the Pharmacist Valley, one could choose a Foundation Establishment Stage pill recipe for free.
Becoming an outer sect disciple of the Pharmacist Valley was a piece of cake for Lu Yuan, who could already make five elementary cultivation pills at a time.
Thus, the only problem that Lu Yuan had to solve to refine Foundation Establishment Stage pills was obtaining Foundation Establishment Stage medicinal herbs.
The only difference between those medicinal ingredients and those of the Qi Cultivation Stage was that the former required the inner sect disciples to use sect contribution points or spiritual stones in exchange for them.
Lu Yuan was, unfortunately, short of money and could not afford to fork out so many spiritual stones and contribution points.
It could be said that limiting the cultivation resources of the Foundation Establishment Stage and above was the core method for the Qingyun Sect to control its disciples.
When the inner disciples were still at the Foundation Establishment Stage, Qingyun Sect would give out all kinds of resources for free so that everyone could focus on cultivation in the early stages.
At this stage, those with talent would stand out and be heavily nurtured by the sect.
Those without talent would leave in tears after failing the assessment.
After reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, other than those talented direct disciples, the remaining Foundation Establishment Stage disciples had to use spiritual stones or sect contribution points to exchange for various cultivation resources with the Qingyun Sect.
Although the Qingyun Sect still gave all kinds of benefits to the Foundation Establishment Stage disciples, these benefits clearly could not satisfy the normal cultivation requirements of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.
Therefore, so as not to affect their cultivation, these disciples had to find ways to earn more spiritual stones or complete more missions from the sect.
Once they entered this stage, the disciples of the Qingyun Sect would change from the original “freeloaders” to the standard “payers”.
They would have no choice but to contribute to the construction of the Qingyun Sect.
Otherwise, did they really think that Qingyun Sect was running a charity and helping them cultivate for free?
The sect also wanted something in return!
After Lu Yuan understood all this, he could not help but sigh.
Indeed, no matter which world it was, free things were the most expensive.
Moreover, the Qingyun Sect was smart in that not only could it make the people in the sect willingly become suckers, but it could even make those suckers feel that the sect was treating them very well by actually having them a chance to cultivate!
As expected of a large sect that could stand for thousands of years without falling. Its method was quite smart!
In terms of gaining profit, the Qingyun Sect was very proficient in it.
Forget it, forget it. This had nothing to do with him.
In any case, as long as he could break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, he could become Elder Han’s direct disciple.
Could a direct disciple be a sucker?
That was impossible!
He didn’t care about others’ thoughts. Either way, Lu Yuan’s thoughts were as such.
In the next two days, Lu Yuan stayed in the private cultivation room and worked hard to practice using the green flame.
Only after he had cultivated the Green Flame Technique to a certain proficiency did Lu Yuan leave the private cultivation room.
There were only two days left before his next sex day.
Lu Yun was prepared to use these two days to finish the rest of the matters.
The first was to use up all the herbs for the elementary cultivation pill that he had accumulated over the past few days.
The other was to pass the Pharmacist Valley’s outer disciple assessment and get a Foundation Establishment Stage pill recipe.
