Cultivation: Become God by playing a game [Dungeon + LitRPG]

Chapter 83



"I never understood why some people would be addicted to growing flowers and plants, but now I finally understand."

"It gives me a sense of accomplishment to see the flowers and plants gradually come to life under my care."

Inside the cave, Su Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the Qingyun apricot tree in front of him with satisfaction.

[Qingyun Apricot Tree (One Hundred Years)]

[Quality: Excellent (up to 800 years)]

[Effect: Can gather the spiritual power of heaven and earth and purify the surrounding environment]

The Qingyun apricot tree, which was originally of only good quality, directly reached an excellent level of quality after Su Chen used the lotus mark to carry out targeted cultivation.

This not only makes the appearance of the Qingyun apricot tree look more harmonious and full of natural beauty.

It also increased the concentration of spiritual energy in Su Chen's cave by about 10%, and the effect was immediate.

As a result, the experience points he gained from a day of daily practice in the cave reached an astonishing '80 points'.

Not only that, as the Qingyun apricot tree ages, the concentration of spiritual energy in his cave will further increase, which will benefit future generations.

Although Su Chen wanted to further improve the quality of the Qingyun apricot tree.

But that is not something that can be accomplished by simply combining his spiritual power.

Instead, he needs to use some more precious natural treasures.

Su Chen naturally couldn't produce those rare treasures at the moment, so excellent quality was the limit of what he could do.

"But with this experience, I have a better understanding of the effect of the Lotus Mark."

"It turns out that both the position and color of the lotus mark are not fixed but will change with the state of the main body."

"And the smaller the lotus mark and the lighter the color, the smaller the weakness of this position."

"Sure enough, if he only uses the Lotus Mark as a means of combat, then he is underestimating the value of this pupil technique."

"Its help outside of combat is no less than during combat."

"And with this successful experiment, I may be able to try to collect more precious natural treasures and cultivate them myself in the future."

"After all, besides the age, the quality of natural treasures is also important."

"Using high-quality natural materials and treasures to refine pills will not only have better effects but also have a much higher success rate."

Thinking of this, Su Chen suddenly remembered the test that his master, Taoist Linghuo, had given him.

That is, when he can refine foundation-building elixirs on his own, he will be promoted to true disciple.

Su Chen was not surprised that Linghuo Taoist proposed such a test.

After all, what Danyang Peak values most is the alchemy ability of the cultivators.

If a true disciple cannot show enough talent in alchemy, he will not be able to convince others even if he has a good aptitude for cultivation.

Although Su Chen was not in a hurry to become a true disciple, he was very interested in refining elixirs for the foundation-building period.

Among the three foundation-building pill recipes given to him by Taoist Linghuo, there was one pill that was worth a fortune to Su Chen.

[Prescription: Peiyuan Pill]

[Refining requirements: Basic alchemy skills must be mastered; cultivation must reach the foundation-building stage or possess the ability of different fires.]

[Effect: Depending on the quality of the pill, you can get a minimum of 500 experience points. You can take at most one pill per day.]

Taking one Peiyuan Pill can gain a minimum of 500 experience points. For Su Chen, who needs a lot of experience points, this is one of the most needed pills at the moment.

The requirements for refining Peiyuan Dan are not too harsh.

Although he has not yet reached the foundation-establishment stage, he has mastered the magical power of the Purple Cloud Divine Fire and has already met some of the conditions for refining the Peiyuan Pill.

Therefore, the only condition currently preventing Su Chen from refining Peiyuan Dan is the level of basic alchemy skills.

"It seems that I'd better focus on alchemy during this period of time and improve the level of basic alchemy as soon as possible."

"As long as I can refine Peiyuan Dan by myself, I will gain experience points faster."

"And in the process of improving my alchemy skills, I can also complete the sect's tasks and gain some contribution points to prepare for exchanging for new magical powers in the future."

[Sect Mission: Refining 100 Qi Gathering Pills (Repeatable)]

[Task time limit: half a year]

[Task Reward: 100 Sect Contribution, 500 Experience Points]

[Current number of Qi Gathering Pills: 35/100]

With Su Chen's current success rate in refining Qi-gathering pills, if he were to refine the pills himself, he could stably obtain 20 to 30 Qi-gathering pills per game day.

It only takes three game days to complete the sect's mission and exchange for a lot of rewards.

But if he chooses to make pills while idle, his efficiency in making pills will be greatly reduced.

He can only get about 10 Qi Gathering Pills every day.

According to the task rewards, one Qi Gathering Pill is roughly equivalent to 5 experience points.

It's not as good as what he gets from practicing while AFK.

In addition, if he only made pills and did not practice, it would be difficult to explain to others why his cultivation had improved so rapidly.

Therefore, Su Chen did not choose to idle to make pills during this period but focused on daily practice.

"Although he can use experience points to directly improve his alchemy level, it's better to save as many experience points as possible."

"I will go to the main hall to refine more pills during this period, and then slowly use the experience points in alchemy."

"This will not only improve the level of basic alchemy but will also not appear too abrupt. It is the safest approach."

"But always using the alchemy furnace in the main hall is not a long-term solution. I will go see the master again and see if he can give me an alchemy furnace."

"After all, if I rely on myself to accumulate contribution points, I really can't afford to replace the alchemy furnace worth thousands of spirit stones in a short period of time."

Although it was a bit shameless, Su Chen had already made up his mind to ask his master, Taoist Linghuo, for another wave of gold coins!

At the same time, Su Chen stood up and went to the main hall of Danyang Peak.

Ji Chang was blocked in his cave by two other disciples of the peak.

"Two senior brothers, what are you doing?"

A swordsman wearing the uniform of a true disciple of Cangjian Peak walked forward.

He looked at Ji Chang with an unfriendly look and said, "Junior Brother Ji, after the cooperation of the male disciples from all the peaks during this period of time, we have found out that it was you and a junior brother from Danyang Peak who went to see Uncle Linghuo, and then the headmaster promoted the Purple Cloud Divine Light Technique throughout the sect."

"Now, if you just tell us who that junior fellow from Danyang Peak is, we will not only let you go, but we will also give you some special rewards as a reward, and we guarantee that you will be satisfied."

"But if you want to keep your mouth shut and fight to the end, I'm sorry... Junior Brother Xue!"

"learn!"

Next to Cangjian Peak's true disciple Yi Hanqing, Xue Youqing, the true disciple of Wanfu Peak, nodded and took out an envelope from his storage bag.

Ji Chang looked at the very familiar envelope and seemed to suddenly think of something. His pupils shrank, his face turned pale, and he began to sweat profusely.

Xue Youqing opened the envelope, glanced at Ji Chang jokingly, and then read aloud.

"Personally from Junior Sister Li Yuan of Wanfu Peak. It has been more than a month since you and I parted after the last lecture by the elder of the main peak. During this period, whenever I think of the scene of discussing Taoism with Junior Sister under the moon, I can't help but feel a little confused and have no intention of refining the elixir. Perhaps this is..."

"Stop, stop reading!"

Ji Chang shouted, then covered his ears with his hands, kneeling on the ground with gritted teeth, his eyes empty and his face ashen.

Senior Brother Xue, you deserve to die!

Where did you get the love letter he sent to Junior Sister Li?

If you spread the contents of this love letter in the sect, then his reputation in the sect... wouldn't it be completely ruined?

Looking at the defeated Ji Chang, Yi Hanqing took the envelope from Xue Youqing with satisfaction, squatted down, and looked at him.

He said in a magnetic voice, "How is it, Junior Brother Ji?"

"You probably don't want the contents of this letter to be known by all the disciples in the sect, right?"

Hateful!!

Ji Chang listened to the devilish whispers and immediately began to struggle between his conscience and his desires.

On one side is the promise made to his fellow apprentice, and on the other side is his reputation within the sect.

This is really... He knows how to choose at a glance!

He raised his head, looked at Yi Hanqing and the other two with a determined look, and said firmly, "Give up, my two brothers. I will never betray Junior Brother Su!"

"ah!"
