Ascension, Starting From The Chaos Art Of Heaven And Earth

Chapter 20: Poor guy

At this moment, Yang Che also knew that common Immortal Roots were of the Five Elements attribute: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

However, there were many more mutated Immortal Root attributes.

Such as wind, lightning, darkness, light, poison, ice, and snow.

Knowing the Immortal Root attribute allowed one to choose a matching Cultivation Technique to Cultivate.

Yang Che already knew he possessed mutated dark and lightning Dual Immortal Roots, so wouldn't it be more suitable to Cultivate Cultivation Techniques of the dark and lightning attributes?

He didn't know what attributes the Purple Origin Art and Heaven and Earth Chaos Art possessed, and amidst his confusion, there was a hint of worry.

However, Yang Che quickly shook his head, thinking, "Who cares, as long as I can Cultivate normally."

After half a month of frantic reading, he finally concluded that cultivating Immortality was an incredibly profound field of study.

It was undoubtedly impossible to understand all Cultivation knowledge in one go; he had to calm down and slowly study it, just as he delved into the Heaven and Earth Chaos Art.

So, Yang Che got up and left the Scripture Repository.

Now, he clearly understood his cultivation path for the foreseeable future.

That was to fully Cultivate to the twelfth level of the Qi Refinement Stage, and then find a way to obtain a 'Foundation Establishment Pill' to attempt Foundation Establishment.

As for 'Heavenly Grace' or anything else, he would just have to take it one step at a time.

Afterward, Yang Che went to the 'Transmission of Arts Pavilion' and found Senior Brother Situ.

He was a young man of medium height, dressed in dark Disciple robes, who specialized in teaching Spells to new Disciples, and was at the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

Recently, there had been many new Disciples joining the Sect, and Senior Brother Situ was currently lecturing on Spells.

Yang Che quickly walked in silently, sat cross-legged, and listened attentively.

Senior Brother Situ indeed had a deep understanding of basic Spells; after listening to his explanation, Yang Che finally gained a new understanding of the Wind Riding Art and Ice Arrow Technique, which had previously given him a tremendous headache.

He even gained new insights into some applications of the Object Control Technique and Heavenly Eye Spell.

When Senior Brother Situ finished his lecture, Yang Che quickly and humbly went forward to ask some other questions.

Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Situ was extremely kind and patiently answered many of Yang Che's doubts.

For example, Yang Che only then learned that the 'yellow paper' used by Frost Moon Fairy and the white-robed old man who tested Immortal Roots earlier was a Talisman.

Talismans were almost essential items for Immortals, but to purchase Talismans, as well as things like medicinal herbs, Medicinal Pills, and Magical Artifacts, one could buy them at designated places within the Sect, or trade at the two markets specifically set up in different locations in Wulong Valley.

However, purchasing these items required 'Spirit Stones'.

Spirit Stones were equivalent to silver in the mortal world.

Unfortunately, Yang Che had never even seen one, but he not only showed no discouragement but instead became even more excited and eager to try.

After inquiring about several methods to earn Spirit Stones from Senior Brother Situ, he stepped onto his flying Magical Artifact and left the central hall to return to Wangxi Residence in Sunset Gorge.

He carefully buried ninety percent of the 'Puyu Yellow' Seeds in the front yard's medicinal field, and the remaining ten percent in the nursery in the backyard.

Only then did Yang Che enter his bedroom, organize and digest all the information he had learned, and then had a good night's sleep. After resting sufficiently, he woke up early the next day.

He first went into the nearby mountains, found some wild fruits to eat, then found some 'barnyard millet' and wild onions to bring back and plant in the remaining small empty spaces in the medicinal field, and then began to Cultivate the 'Ice Arrow Technique'.

However, after several days, he still couldn't succeed.

Yang Che thought for a moment, then simply poured out an 'Eight Treasures Pill', took it, and fully Cultivated the Purple Origin Art.

Six months later.

After consuming all of his Eight Treasures Pills, Yang Che's cultivation successfully entered the fourth level of the Qi Refinement Stage.

Over the past six months, after experiencing the sweetness of rapidly advancing his cultivation by consuming Medicinal Pills, he found that he could no longer tolerate the 'turtle-like speed' of improving his cultivation solely by absorbing Spiritual Qi for refining.

Therefore, after the Eight Treasures Pills were depleted, he continued to Cultivate for more than half a month, but finally, unable to bear it, he forcibly ended his cultivation.

He got up and came to the edge of the medicinal field, looking at the already mature 'Puyu Yellow' and the golden 'barnyard millet ears of grain'. The fifteen-year-old Yang Che's face showed an incomparably happy expression.

He harvested the barnyard millet ears and used the set of 'refining tools' he received from the Sect to obtain some flour.

He also took out some seasonings that had been prepared earlier in the original leather pouch and made a delicious meal of handmade 'scallion oil noodles'.

After eating and drinking his fill, Yang Che half-lay on a self-made rattan chair in the courtyard, looking through the courtyard gate at the gurgling stream and the lingering sunset glow in the distance, and for a moment, he felt truly carefree, like an Immortal.

At this moment, he reaffirmed his heart for cultivating Immortality.

As he lay on the rattan chair, his mind unconsciously began to contemplate the 'Ice Arrow Technique' again.

He was so focused that he became immersed in it as if entering a dream.

He didn't know how long had passed when Yang Che suddenly felt a chill come from his fingertips, and then he abruptly woke up from his 'dream'.

He raised his palm and looked at the sparkling, arrow-like ice at his fingertips, almost falling off the rattan chair in excitement.

After his cultivation advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining, the Ice Arrow Technique was finally successfully Cultivated.

He went to the nearby mountain forest and directly shot these ice arrows from his fingertips towards a towering tree in front of him.

With a few crisp 'thump, thump, thump' sounds, these ice arrows all pierced into the hard tree trunk, sinking in completely.

Moreover, where the ice arrows had pierced, the tree trunk showed signs of being melted by the cold Qi.

Casting this Ice Arrow Technique consumed very little magical power, was swift and convenient, and according to the Spell incantation, it also had a restraining effect on fire-attribute Spells.

Having learned the Ice Arrow Technique, Yang Che was in a rather good mood. He returned to Wangxi Residence, collected a hundred 'Puyu Yellow' plants, and then stepped onto his Sophora Leaf flying Magical Artifact and flew towards the Hundred Crafts Hall.

Hundred Crafts Hall.

The Goatee Old Man carefully inspected the medicinal herbs Yang Che submitted, and after confirming there were no issues, he asked indifferently, "Do you want Sect Contribution Points or Spirit Stones?"

Yang Che's heart stirred upon hearing this, and he blurted out, "Can they be exchanged for Spirit Stones?"

"Indeed. One Contribution Point can be exchanged for one Low-Grade Spirit Stone. Your hundred Puyu Yellow plants can accumulate six Sect Contribution Points," the Goatee Old Man's voice remained flat.

"Then exchange them for Spirit Stones," Yang Che said directly without hesitation.

The old man threw six Low-Grade Spirit Stones to Yang Che and then stopped speaking, busying himself with his own affairs.

Yang Che looked at the six small stones in front of him, shining with a special luster and filled with Spiritual Qi, and couldn't help but say to himself with delight and curiosity, "Are these Spirit Stones? The Spiritual Qi within them is truly pure."

After putting the Spirit Stones into his Storage Pouch, Yang Che thought carefully and decided to visit the market to see if he could buy the medicinal ingredients needed to refine 'Eight Treasures Pills'.

After touring the nearest market, Yang Che's expression gradually became unsightly. He then realized that he was simply a living 'pauper'; he was curious and eager about the many items in the market, but he couldn't afford anything.
