Chapter 138: Chapter 136: Inflation of Cultivation Talent
Having seen what there was to see, Su Qing left the venue.
None of the items inside seemed to interest him.
After all, he had obtained the legacy items of a Tier Four Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.
Besides, there were some things Su Qing simply didn’t need at his current stage.
For example, he had no use for the Beauty Pill or the Cyan Profound Fruit at this point.
Su Qing had wanted the Pill Formula, but unfortunately, it was an incomplete one.
He might be able to find it in the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect’s Holy Book Pavilion.
The Holy Book Pavilion did, in fact, have records of Broken Pill Formulas.
After leaving the auction house, Su Qing caught some fish, shrimp, and crabs from the water before departing.
As for the fish in his Dantian Pocket World, they were all dead. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
It was probably a result of him using the Five Thunders Technique last time.
Su Qing took the Teleportation Array back to the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect.
It felt good to be back in the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect.
It was very comforting.
Not long after Su Qing returned to Cold Extremity Peak,
he sensed his master approaching.
"Disciple, you’re finally back."
"Where have you been off training?" Ouyang Mingming asked, observing Su Qing’s aura. He had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"Not bad, not bad. You’ve finally reached Foundation Establishment."
"Reaching Foundation Establishment is just the beginning," Ouyang Mingming said, patting Su Qing’s shoulder.
Ouyang Mingming’s appearance had changed so drastically that Su Qing almost didn’t recognize her. Her hair had turned completely white.
"Master, you...?"
Ouyang Mingming proudly lifted her head and sat down on the sofa in Su Qing’s home.
"Your master here has obtained a bloodline—the Ice Chi Dragon Bloodline."
"So? Don’t I look good?" Ouyang Mingming said happily.
"You look beautiful." Su Qing couldn’t possibly say otherwise.
Ouyang Mingming’s irises were now ice-blue.
She also exuded a faint chill, completely different from before.
"AHEM. Disciple, it’s been too long since your master has eaten anything good."
Hearing this, Su Qing smiled. "Your timing is perfect, Master. I was just about to make something delicious."
"Mm, you truly know how to please your master. Go on, hurry up," Ouyang Mingming said, lounging lazily on the sofa. Her loose, thin clothes outlined her undulating curves.
Su Qing glanced once but didn’t dare to look again, afraid his Dao heart would become unstable.
....
After finishing an ultimate seafood feast,
Ouyang Mingming left, satisfied.
Su Qing, meanwhile, waited a while in his small cabin.
He took out an unknown Spirit Fruit.
And swallowed it in one gulp.
He had just begun to refine it
when he felt a tremendous tearing sensation erupt within his body.
After Su Qing refined this one Spirit Fruit, he felt an intense pain.
His body felt like it was about to explode.
A 500-fold increase in Cultivation Talent was, for Su Qing, unimaginably terrifying.
Spiritual Qi was one thing, but the method of improving his talent was about to make him burst.
’Am I done for this time?’ he wondered.
The Life and Death Reincarnation Dao Foundation gave him the confidence not to fear death, but he would be devastated if he wasted a chance at resurrection by courting death himself.
This went on for three hours.
Only then did Su Qing’s aura stabilize, allowing him to calmly cultivate the God Demon Inference Heaven Skill.
At the same time, Su Qing also realized that the circulation of his God Demon Inference Heaven Skill had become much faster.
This was to be expected.
After all, the talent boost from before, combined with the Cultivation Talent from when he broke through with the Five Elements Reincarnation Skill, was at most a 100-something-fold increase.
But this time, it had increased by 500-fold all at once.
How could it not be faster?
It was just that the risk this time had been immense.
It had almost caused him to explode and die.
After stabilizing, Su Qing didn’t continue swallowing more Spirit Fruits.
The unknown Spirit Fruit in his body had not been completely refined yet.
After cultivating steadily for a month,
Su Qing checked his panel.
Second-Layer Foundation Establishment [God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Entry Level (367/500)]
’My Skill Level increased by about 60 in one month!’
’This fruit is fucking amazing!’
Su Qing had completely refined one unknown Spirit Fruit.
He still had thirteen more of these Spirit Fruits.
Of course, Su Qing took out another one and ate it.
He swallowed another.
Having learned from his previous experience, Su Qing was no longer as afraid and did his utmost to circulate the God Demon Inference Heaven Skill.
Su Qing refined the Spirit Fruit once more.
「Another month passed.」
...
*HUFF...*
’Another one, but the effect seems to have weakened.’
Su Qing could feel that this time, his talent hadn’t increased by 500-fold,
but by about 400-fold.
Second-Layer Foundation Establishment [God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Entry Level (458/500)]
Su Qing looked at his God Demon Inference Heaven Skill; it seemed he was about to break through to Mastery.
So he ate another unknown Spirit Fruit.
About half a month later,
Second-Layer Foundation Establishment [God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Mastery (0/1000)]
The moment he reached Mastery, the God Demon True Essence within his body doubled in density.
’The Spirit Fruit has also been completely refined.’
After the God Demon Inference Heaven Skill broke through to Mastery, the residual medicinal effects of the Spirit Fruit were also smoothly refined.
’The medicinal effect is even lower now, less than a 200-fold increase.’
Su Qing could clearly feel the Spirit Fruit’s effect diminishing with each use.
But Su Qing kept eating them anyway.
At the very least, they were still good for improving his Cultivation Talent.
’When the time comes, I’ll try synthesizing Nourishing Yuan Pills into unknown Elixirs to boost my Cultivation Talent.’
After eating the Spirit Fruit,
Su Qing resumed his Cultivation.
....
....
「Three months later.」
’There are seven Spirit Fruits left. What a pity.’
’It seems these unknown Spirit Fruits no longer increase my Cultivation Talent.’
Su Qing silently sensed his condition. Up to now, his Cultivation Talent had only increased by a little over 1400-fold.
The subsequent Spirit Fruits barely increased it at all.
[God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Mastery (398/1000)]
’At this rate, it will probably take another half a year to break through to the Third-Layer Foundation Establishment.’
’My Dao Foundation, nourished by the doubled density of God Demon True Essence, is indeed progressing much faster.’
One day later, freёwebnovel.com
Su Qing bought some ordinary Nourishing Yuan Pills to synthesize.
[Unknown Elixir: Instantly repairs and stabilizes weak and damaged meridians, increases own Cultivation Talent by 100-fold]
’Nice, nice. I’ll take three first and see how it goes.’
Su Qing silently ate one.
Then resumed his Cultivation.
This time, his Cultivation Talent increased by a very normal 100-fold.
Su Qing’s own base Cultivation Talent was now boosted by 1500-fold.
Su Qing then ate the next one.
The next one gave a boost of about 50-fold, and after refining another, the boost was only about 10-fold.
「Another month passed.」
—
[God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Mastery (548/1000)]
Su Qing stopped his Cultivation.
Because Within the Sect,
it seemed someone was about to start Crossing the Tribulation.
Even on Cold Extremity Peak, he could feel the might of the Thunder Tribulation.
Su Qing went out to take a look.
The sky was filled with dark clouds.
One bolt of lightning.
A second.
A third.
It was over.
’The Ten Thousand Tribulations Divine Body? Looks like someone has broken through with the Ten Thousand Tribulations Divine Body.’
’Bai Ranmo?’
Su Qing thought of that guy who was cultivating the Ten Thousand Tribulations Divine Body.
’It really might be him.’
After that, Su Qing paid it no mind.
And continued to cultivate...
「Three months passed.」
—
[God Demon Inference Heaven Skill: Minor Achievement (0/2000)]
’The God Demon True Essence in my body has doubled in density again!’
Su Qing found it incredible, because it had doubled from the already dense God Demon True Essence at the Mastery level.
His current Pocket World, nourished by the God Demon True Essence, was on the verge of transforming into a Little World.
Even the Pocket World in his Dantian had expanded its radius by a full kilometer.
It was an outrageous expansion.
During these three months, he also had to spend one day each month eating something delicious, mainly because his master came to see him once a month.
And each time, she would urge Su Qing to cook a meal.
Even though she had watched Su Qing cook so many times,
she just didn’t want to do it herself.
Under this pressure, Su Qing would be "forced" to choke down five bowls of rice and a huge pot of delicious food.
