Longevity Fairy: Sister, Please Wait A Little Longer

Chapter 39 039: New System Function - Cultivation (Second Update!)

The next day at noon, Chu Bai, wearing his mask once again, dragged his exhausted body into Xishan.

He was clever enough to have encountered an ambush at his doorstep last night. His cousin had gotten her period, so he absolutely couldn't repeat the same mistake and deliver goods to her.

If he didn't return to the medicinal garden, he could only go deeper into the mountains.

He was the biggest threat in the seventeenth mine cave. Brother Bai wanted to take a nap, and yet a group of kids dared to disturb him?

After squinting for a while, Chu Bai fed Innate Cave Mansion one hundred spirit stones to recover from his injuries.

That Monster Forest was filled with Rank One early-stage Monsters. Chu Bai's cultivation was already at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, so even if the Monsters swarmed him, Brother Chu Bai wasn't afraid.

The problem still lay with himself.

Qi Refining at the fifth level versus Profound Rank Low Level swordsmanship. Can you imagine the feeling of a small horse pulling a big cart?

Not only did Chu Bai pull it off, but his Spirit Vein was also damaged. Even though he only used five swords last night, his whole body was in excruciating pain.

Activate the "Nourishing Heart Technique" and bless Innate Cave Mansion!

With the restoration of 70% of the Innate Fire Spirit Vein, Chu Bai's cultivation base had reached 1.8 times that of an average Qi Refining fifth level cultivator. Doubling it with Innate Cave Mansion made it 3.6, not far from four times.

"I should be considered an elite disciple now, right..."

Run the "Nourishing Heart Technique" in a circular manner. The speed was noticeably slower than usual, but today's goal was not cultivation, but to soothe the pain.

As time passed, Chu Bai's complexion gradually improved. Since he wasn't truly cultivating, he could also focus on organizing his gains.

Last night was his first battle. Fighting Monsters was different from fighting humans, and it was still precious to Chu Bai.

Chu Bai had never killed a living creature before, except for slaughtering chickens for cooking.

The process of beheading the monster wolf was too fast, which made him feel nauseous afterwards.

Fortunately, his escape and battle lasted a long time. In the subsequent battles, he was unlucky enough to be surrounded by seven or eight Monsters. If it weren't for practicing the "Light Body Technique" to the maximum level over the years, it would be difficult for him to sit here unscathed.

During this period, Chu Bai gradually understood the true essence of battle.

Battle wasn't about either you die or I live. Holding back meant being irresponsible for one's own life.

So Chu Bai's five sword strikes were all lethal, and he also adapted to the discomfort of blood splattering.

Then came the "Cloud Dragon Seven Styles" that his cousin passed on to him. Due to system limitations, Chu Bai had already learned all seven sword moves of the technique. However, due to his low cultivation level, he could only proficiently use the swift and agile "Drifting Dragon Style."

Currently...

[Chu Bai]: 16 years old, inner disciple of Azure Cloud Sect.

[Cultivation]: Qi Refining Stage, fifth level.

[Spirit Vein Aptitude]: Fire Spirit Vein (damaged, protected by luck, 70% repaired).

[Wealth]: 25 (5275) pieces of Low Grade spirit stones.

[Dao Companion]: Ning Wanqiu (named Dao Companion).

[Cultivation Technique]: Nourishing Heart Technique.

[Techniques]: Light Body Technique (perfection), Elephant Armor Technique, Cloud Dragon Seven Styles.

[Divine Ability]: None.

[Law Weapon]: None.

[Cave Mansion]: Innate Cave Mansion - Moon Shadow.

[Luck]: [Luck of the Sect Master's Dao Companion].

With nearly three thousand spirit stones and a set of sword techniques, is that all?

Wrong!

With three thousand spirit stones, not including the ones consumed by Innate Cave Mansion, Chu Bai guessed that he could advance to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Not to mention the "Cloud Dragon Seven Styles," a sword technique that only Sword Peak disciples could learn, and it was even a prerequisite for the "Azure Cloud Sword Art." It was unlikely that ordinary inner disciples of Sword Peak would qualify to learn it.

It could be said that compared to before, Chu Bai had taken a big step forward on the path of longevity.

"Wait a minute!"

Chu Bai suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes.

His system panel was originally divided into three sections.

First was the personal panel, Dao Companion, and karma.

Now...

"Ding~"

Prompt: Since your techniques have reached three or more, the system has activated a new function.

The fourth item after karma is called "Cultivation."

[Light Body Technique]: Basic body technique, Yellow Rank Middle Level. Due to reaching perfection, it is equivalent to Yellow Rank High Level body technique and cannot be cultivated.

[Elephant Armor Technique]: Defensive technique, Yellow Rank Middle Level. When cultivated to perfection, it can make the skin and flesh of the whole body as tough as an elephant's, impervious to knives and spears. There is also a chance to gain the strength of an elephant. Each cultivation consumes 10 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones.

[Cloud Dragon Seven Forms]: Foundation Building sword technique, Profound Rank Low Level. With the ability to soar through the clouds and move with great agility, when cultivated to the peak, it can sweep away Foundation Building practitioners. Each cultivation consumes 500 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones.

Friendly reminder: The greater the gap between the host's cultivation level and the grade of the technique being cultivated, the more Spirit Stones will be consumed during cultivation.

Chu Bai: "."

Friendly reminder, to hell with his uncle's cousin!

Chu Bai currently has three skills. It's understandable that he can't cultivate the Light Body Technique.

If he is willing to spend the "Tian Yan Star Stone Fragments," he can upgrade the Light Body Technique to the "Wind Control Technique" and then cultivate it.

Hehehe.

The Elephant Armor Technique that follows is similar. Chu Bai's purpose in learning the Elephant Armor Technique is very simple: to enhance defense and survival ability. The cultivation cost of 10 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones can be considered a good deal. Trying it out definitely won't lead to any regrets.

The key is the Cloud Dragon Seven Forms. Damn, it costs 500 Spirit Stones to cultivate once.

Chu Bai painstakingly saved up 5,000 Spirit Stones for two months, and it's only enough to practice swordsmanship ten times.

"Damn!"

"Before Foundation Building, I absolutely can't casually cultivate the bullshit Cloud Dragon Seven Forms. It's too damn expensive. Unless my aunt gives me funding for the next activity and provides Middle Grade Spirit Stones."

...

Two hours passed.

The backlash injuries have mostly healed, and Chu Bai's anger has subsided. He reopened the system panel and selected the cultivation of the Elephant Armor Technique.

"-10"!

Chu Bai was familiar with this. The system forcibly took away 10 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones from his pocket.

Then...

"Ding~"

Prompt: About to start cultivating the Elephant Armor Technique. Please prepare, it is recommended to enter a secluded place first.

Chu Bai: "???"

He really doesn't know what the system looks like when it assists him in cultivating techniques.

Then, his body stood up uncontrollably and walked to the courtyard outside Room 17, picking up a brick and hitting himself on the head.

"Bang"!

Chu Bai saw stars, and the Qi Refining fifth layer spiritual power quickly followed, offsetting part of the damage.

"Bang, bang, bang"!

The brick shattered.

Chu Bai picked up a new one and hit his shoulder with it.

"Bang, bang, bang"!

"Bang, bang, bang"!

The courtyard was filled with the rhythmic sound of brick hitting.

...

As the sun set,

The disciples of Room 17 carried their hoes and headed home. Although they were talking and laughing, the two long lines showed no signs of looseness.

"Second Dog Senior Brother, Wang Senior Brother, are you nervous about teaching in another mine tomorrow?"

The two shook their heads.

After being trained by Senior Brother Bai repeatedly and experiencing recent large-scale events, dealing with a hundred mortal disciples posed no difficulty for them.

"Bang, bang, bang"!

"What's that sound?"

Second Dog Kong Xiu and Wang Yong exchanged glances and swiftly rushed into the courtyard.

"Son of a bitch, someone stole something and came to my house!"

"Brothers, let's go, tie him up, stuff his mouth with stones, and sink him in the lake for an hour!"

However,

As soon as they finished speaking,

The two strongest cultivators of Room 17 were stunned.

They saw their Senior Brother Bai holding a stone larger than a washbasin, smashing it onto his thigh repeatedly.
