I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 34



Chapter 34


Two months later, at the back mountain of the Qingyun Sect.


[Name: Lu Yuan]


[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage, level 1]


[Spiritual Root Aptitude: 600 points]


[Lifespan: 25/800]


[Innate Talent: Destined Lucky Star]


[Cultivation Techniques: Qingyun Technique (level 10, Qi Cultivation chapter), Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique (level 1, Foundation Establishment chapter), Breeze Mystical Scripture (level 1, Foundation Establishment chapter)]


[Luck: 700]


In the last two months of his confinement, Lu Yuan had consumed all the marrow-cleansing pills he had, including a large number of perfect-grade marrow-cleansing pills.


This also allowed his total spiritual root aptitude to reach an astonishing 600 points.


It had been a full year since he had obtained the two Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation techniques.


During the tenth month, Lu Yuan had already cultivated his acquired wind spiritual root to perfection at the Qi Cultivation Stage.


However, similarly to the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, it was no easy task to make the wind spiritual root achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.


Similarly, some precious wind-attribute natural treasures were required to increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for the wind spiritual root.


Lu Yuan did not have such a treasure in his hands for the time being, thus he did not put the matter of achieving Foundation Establishment for the wind spiritual root on the agenda yet.


At the moment, he was preparing to achieve Foundation Establishment for the water and metal spiritual roots of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique.


Because he had to make these two spiritual roots breakthrough at the same time, it was much more difficult to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens when cultivating the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell technique than ordinary cultivation techniques.


However, the current Lu Yuan had gone through a year of preparation. His success rate was naturally different from before.


[Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique]


[Water spiritual root aptitude: 100 points]


[Metal spiritual root aptitude: 100 points ]


[Luck Bonus: 7% (700)]


[Cultivation Technique Bonus: 10%]


[Special item bonus, 5000-year black tortoiseshell: 50%]


[Foundation Establishment through the way of humans success rate: 15%]


[Foundation Establishment through the way of the earth success rate: 8%]


[Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens success rate: 77% (10% +7% +10% +50%)]


Currently, his success rate in Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique had already reached an astonishing 77%.


If it were any other ordinary person, they might have already chosen to attempt Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.


After all, rounding it up, it was almost an 80% success rate.


Although 80% wasn’t low, for Lu Yuan, who was adamant about having a steady foundation, non-absolute success was equivalent to absolute failure.


Without an infinitely close to 100% success rate, he would not easily take the risk.


Moreover, it wasn’t as if he had no way to continue increasing his success rate.


The Destined Lucky Star’s special effect, Destined Time, could double his luck for a short time.


Lu Yuan’s current basic luck value was 700 points, which would double to 1400 points.


With that, he would have an additional 7% success rate on top of his current 77%.


That meant that his current success rate for Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens would be 84%.


An 84% success rate was definitely not low.


If he could increase his basic luck value to 1500 points, which would double to 3000 points when Destined Time was activated, the success rate of Lu Yuan’s Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens would be 100%!


In other words, as long as he obtained another 800 points of luck value, he would be able to reach Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens with 100% certainty!


This 800-point difference would have to be obtained from demoness Meng Ruyan.


At the thought of this, Lu Yuan took in a deep breath.


Compared to the possible gains, he would just have to be a little drained… He would just go all out!


Calculating the time, Lu Yuan felt that he had not seen demoness Meng Ruyan for quite a few years.


Going to her now, Lu Yuan felt as if he was going home to see his wife.


However, considering the importance of luck value, Lu Yuan forced himself to be alert and flew towards the mountain where Meng Ruyan was.


Now that his confinement period was over, he could move freely.



A month later, in Legacy valley of the Qingyun Sect, Lu Yuan returned to the residence that had just been assigned to him while massaging his sore waist.


At this moment, Lu Yuan, whose confinement at the back mountain was over, had become a direct disciple of the Qingyun Sect.


On one hand, it was because his cultivation had already reached the requirements to become a direct disciple.


On the other hand, he had already fulfilled Elder Han’s request back then.


Now that he had the ability to refine Foundation Establishment Stage pills, it was only natural for him to be accepted as Elder Han’s direct disciple.


In fact, even without the agreement, it would not be difficult for Lu Yuan to become a direct disciple.


However, considering that he was more familiar with Elder Han and that his good brother Bai Dafei was also Elder Han’s direct disciple, Lu Yuan still decided to take Elder Han Yuanshan as his master.


After becoming a direct disciple, Lu Yuan could naturally choose a mountain peak in Legacy Valley to be his residence.


Other than becoming a direct disciple and choosing a residence, the thing he had been doing for the past month was going to demoness Meng Ruyan.


In all honesty, sometimes a man’s cultivation did not necessarily represent his “combat power”.


At the very least, Lu Yuan felt that even though he had reached the initial Foundation Establishment Stage, he still felt drained by Meng Ruyan.


What a disgrace!


After many “defeats”, Lu Yuan could only return home dejectedly.


If he wanted to leave, the demoness Meng Ruyan would not be able to stop him.


At the current stage, Lu Yuan was no longer someone that demoness Meng Ruyan could casually control.


As he had more bouts of “intimate communication” with demoness Meng Ruyan, Lu Yuan had also roughly figured out the characteristics of her cultivation technique.


Her cultivation technique seemed to allow her to temporarily absorb the spiritual root aptitudes of others to nourish her own spiritual roots, achieving the effect of improving her spiritual root aptitude.


Although this method wasn’t as overbearing as the other devilish cultivation techniques, it was better in secrecy and stability.


Lu Yuan even felt that demoness Meng Ruyan’s cultivation technique should not be as simple as just nurturing her spiritual root.


This was because ordinary devilish cultivation techniques could easily cause heart demons and unstable foundations.


Yet, demoness Meng Ruyan’s cultivation technique was different.


Lu Yuan felt like he was a gardener in a vegetable garden, watering the spiritual herb Meng Ruyan from time to time.


An unstable foundation? Heart demon?


He felt that not only did demoness Meng Ruyan not have these two debuffs, but she became increasingly radiant!


As the old saying goes, there were only exhausted cows, not damaged lands!


Who could say for sure if demoness Meng Ruyan’s cultivation technique was righteous or devilish?


However, even though Lu Yuan was curious about what demoness Meng Ruyan’s cultivation technique was, he didn’t really try to explore the secrets of her cultivation technique.


Restraining one’s curiosity was something that a steady person must do.


After all, curiosity killed the cat. If one was not the main character, one should not easily dabble in things one didn’t understand.


Other than the protagonist, who could guarantee that they would be able to survive every crisis?


In any case, the steady Lu Yuan didn’t think that he was the protagonist, nor would he have such good luck.


He would just cultivate step by step and grow step by step.


If he could steadily become stronger, why would he take risks?


After planning for so long, it was finally time to reap the rewards.


As he thought of this, Lu Yuan looked at his current success rate of Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.


[Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique]


[Water spiritual root aptitude: 100 points]


[Metal spiritual root aptitude: 100 points]


[Luck Bonus: 14% (1400)]


[Cultivation Technique bonus: 10%]


[Special item bonus, 5000-year black tortoiseshell:50%]


[Foundation Establishment through the way of humans success rate: 15% ”


[Foundation Establishment through the way of the earth success rate: 8% ”


[Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens success rate: 84% (10% +14% +10% +50%)]


Although he had not been able to increase his basic luck value to 1500 points this month, it was not far from that.


This was not because Lu Yuan did not want to continue obtaining luck.


Rather, it was because demoness Meng Ruyan had left the sect again.


According to demoness Meng Ruyan herself, this was because many devils were stirring up trouble in the mortal world recently.


The disciples of the righteous sects naturally had to take action.


Demoness Meng Ruyan, who was a direct disciple, naturally could not avoid it.


If not for the fact that Lu Yuan had just broken through and was a pharmacist who was not good at fighting, he might’ve already been sent to leave the sect to vanquish demons and devils.


However, he definitely didn’t want to do such dangerous things.


He had already thought it through. When he successfully achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, he would start his “stable development plan 1.0” and design a new “five-year plan”.


[Steady development plan 1.0: By challenging fellow disciples multiple times and being easily defeated, create the impression that I’m a combat wastrel who only knows how to refine pills and not fight, and thus “forced” to stay in the sect to refine pills.]


With his “stable development plan 1.0”, Lu Yuan felt that he had a good chance of staying in the sect.


After all, asking a pharmacist to go vanquish demons and devils was obviously not right!


As for the new five-year plan, Lu Yuan was still in the midst of planning it. He had yet to set the general direction and detailed development plan.


There was no rush, though. The first thing he needed to do now was to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens!


Luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, activate!


[Ding! The special effect, Destined Time, has been triggered. Your luck value will double for some time.]


[Current accumulated disaster value: 22 points]


[Doubled Luck Value: 2800 points]


He had a total of 22 disaster points, and each disaster point would give him 20 to 30 points of luck.


It could be seen how much “hard work” Lu Yuan had put in this month.


Fortunately, it was all worth it!


[Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique]


[…]


[Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens success rate: 98% (10% +28% +10% +50%)]


There was a 98% success rate. He vowed to succeed!


The heavens’ good son, cultivator Lu Yuan who never went against the heavens, applied for Foundation Establishment!
