Switching from the Light Spirit Pill to the Eternal Floating Pill, although the refining time was slightly longer and the yield per furnace was slightly reduced, Chen Fei could earn over a thousand taels of silver a day after deducting the cost of the medicinal ingredients. The best part was that he didn’t have to worry about any trouble with this income. Chen Fei felt that he was on the verge of becoming very wealthy.
He finally had hope of cultivating the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which had always been his trump card.
Chen Fei only needed to save money for about a month to unveil the true potential of this cultivation technique.
“Great!” Chi Defeng’s face lit up with a smile as he looked at the jade token in his hand. Now, he and Chen Fei were in the same boat. If Chen Fei succeeded, he would succeed too.
Several days flew by in the blink of an eye. In addition to his daily alchemy practice, Chen Fei dedicated most of his time to grinding the proficiency of the Origin Connection Technique. After many days of hard work, Chen Fei had finally reached the peak of the first level.
“Cultivation Method: Origin Connection Technique Stage One (1000/1000)”
Curious about the effects of perfecting the first level of the Origin Connection Technique, Chen Fei conducted tests. While the effect of swallowing the medicinal pill remained unchanged, the cultivation effects provided by the technique itself increased by approximately 10%.
…..
The increase wasn’t very noticeable since Chen Fei primarily relied on consuming medicinal pills for rapid cultivation. However, considering this was only the first level, weaker effects were expected.
Carrying a pot of wine, Chen Fei knocked on Guo Linshan’s door. This wine was from an ordinary inn in Immortal Cloud City, but Guo Linshan particularly enjoyed it. He wasn’t fond of more expensive wines.
“Junior Brother.” Guo Linshan opened the door and saw Chen Fei with a pot of wine, his face breaking into a smile. After a few interactions, Guo Linshan had developed a good impression of Chen Fei.
“You didn’t have to bring anything,” Guo Linshan welcomed Chen Fei inside.
“I had to bring some wine to moisten my throat after bombarding Senior Brother with so many questions,” Chen Fei said with a smile, placing the wine pot on the table.
Guo Linshan found two bowls and poured wine into each. The fragrance of the wine made his smile even wider.
He truly enjoyed this wine!
“Senior Brother Guo, Master only taught me the Origin Connection Technique. When will he teach me the other sword techniques and movement techniques?” Chen Fei seized the opportunity to ask the question that had been on his mind.
“There’s no need to rush. Master treats everyone the same,” Guo Linshan replied, thinking that Chen Fei was concerned about potential bias from Feng Xiupu. “Every month, Master tests our martial arts progress. If you perform well, he will consider teaching you other techniques based on your abilities.” “What is considered outstanding performance?”
“It’s hard to say for others, but for someone like you who has just entered the sect, as long as you cultivate the Origin Connection Technique well, your performance will naturally be considered outstanding,” Guo Linshan replied, finishing the wine in his bowl.
“You’ve perfected the first level of the Origin Connection Technique?” Chen Fei looked at Guo Linshan and asked.
“Yes, if you can cultivate it to perfection, it will indeed be considered outstanding!” Guo Linshan nodded.
“I see.” Chen Fei extended his hand, and his right index finger became slightly transparent as if a layer of light was about to burst out from it.
Guo Linshan, still with wine in his mouth, was taken aback when he saw the phenomenon with Chen Fei’s finger. He nearly spat out the wine.
The Origin Connection Technique allowed the internal force to travel from top to bottom. After reaching the peak of the first level of the Origin Connection Technique, the force could be transmitted to the fingertips, as Chen Fei had just demonstrated.
“Have you cultivated the Origin Connection Technique before?” Guo Linshan’s initial reaction was that Chen Fei had learned it before. Otherwise, how could he progress so quickly? Guo Linshan himself had spent more than a month to reach the same level of cultivation.
However, he quickly dismissed the thought. Chen Fei’s comprehension of the Primordial Sword suggested that mastering the first level of the Origin Connection Technique in a few days was not impossible.
Of course, it could also be attributed to natural compatibility. After all, there had been many such examples in the sect over the years.
Chen Fei smiled and shook his head. “Senior Brother, you must be joking. The Origin Connection Technique is an inner sect cultivation technique. How could it be circulated outside? Moreover, Master has already tested my aptitude. If I had learned it before, he would have detected it.”
“That’s true,” Guo Linshan agreed. It was unlikely for the Origin Connection Technique to be leaked to outsiders, although it wasn’t impossible.
Furthermore, if Chen Fei had truly learned it secretly, he would have kept it hidden. There was no reason for him to reveal it like this.
If Guo Linshan reported this to Feng Xiupu, the master would likely test Chen Fei’s internal strength again. After all, there were still differences in internal strength cultivated through the Origin Connection Technique, especially in the presence of someone like Feng Xiupu, who had reached the peak of the fifth tier.
So, did Chen Fei genuinely master the first level of the Origin Connection Technique in just a few days? If that were the case, even if his Innate Ability was slightly weaker, he might still have a bright future.
“Let’s go find Master,” Guo Linshan said eagerly, standing up and leading the way. Chen Fei followed closely behind. In no time, they arrived outside Feng Xiupu’s courtyard.
“Master, Disciple Guo Linshan requests an audience!” Guo Linshan announced loudly.
“What is it?” Feng Xiupu, who hadn’t left his courtyard that day, happened to be there and was puzzled when he saw Guo Linshan and Chen Fei approaching.
“Master, Junior Brother has perfected the first level of the Origin Connection Technique,” Guo Linshan whispered to Feng Xiupu.
Feng Xiupu was taken aback, looking at Chen Fei. Chen Fei extended his palm, and his five fingers emitted a faint glow.
Surprise flickered in Feng Xiupu’s eyes. His initial reaction was that Chen Fei had learned it before, but he quickly dismissed the idea. Considering Chen Fei’s comprehension of the Primordial Sword, it seemed plausible that he had mastered the first level of the Origin Connection Technique in a few days.
Naturally, this could also be attributed to his compatibility with the technique. After all, there had been similar cases in the sect before.
“Come in,” Feng Xiupu invited them into his study. He took out the secret manual for the second stage of the Origin Connection Technique and began explaining the cultivation steps and key points.
Two hours passed, and Feng Xiupu concluded his explanations. Chen Fei checked the interface.
“Cultivation Method: Origin Connection Stage Two (1/2000)”
Feng Xiupu asked in a low voice, “How many days do you think it will take for you to perfect the second level of the Origin Connection Art?”
Chen Fei estimated the speed at which he was gaining proficiency points and looked up at Feng Xiupu. “Within ten days, I believe it should be possible.”
Guo Linshan, who had been listening for two hours, was no longer feeling drowsy after hearing Chen Fei’s words. Feng Xiupu, too, looked at Chen Fei in shock. He had estimated it would take at least a month. Chen Fei had shattered that expectation by more than half..
