Eternal Life from Talisman Painting-Chapter 231 - 155: Master Lu, Heaven Repairing Pill!
The eyes were bright and spirited, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura.
"Earlier, I heard you two young friends wanted this secret technique to enhance your spirit root’s aptitude?"
Master Lu was emanating a sense of Cangmu Qi, yet his expression carried an optimistic and relaxed smile, teasing the two juniors with a gentle laugh.
Even Yun Yao restrained her mind, bowed solemnly, and said, "I dare not, junior was just making a play..."
Before the word "joke" could be finished, Master Lu casually waved his hand, and a jade scroll floated before the two of them.
"There’s no secret technique to enhance the spirit root’s aptitude, but there is a pill formula."
Master Lu waved with a smile, "Everyone says that for an old man with a low-grade spirit root to come this far, he must have had an incredibly fortuitous encounter."
"This is indeed true. When I was young, I had a chance to enter an ancient cultivator’s cave dwelling and inherited this senior’s legacy."
Lin Chang’an and Yun Yao were both in a daze as they stared at the jade scroll before them, both displaying incredulous expressions.
A pill formula to enhance spirit root’s aptitude? Did they just get it so easily?
However, as the two took a closer look, they both fell into silence.
Especially Lin Chang’an, who couldn’t help feeling speechless inside.
This is an ancient pill formula, but it’s too difficult.
"The ancient strange pill, ’Heaven Repairing Pill’, is made with a transformation demon pill as the lead, and must be refined with dozens of precious spirit grasses."
"Among them, three types of spirit grass have been lost. The old man has painstakingly researched for a hundred years, only to find substitute spirit grasses and improve it into a lower-quality Spirit Supplement Pill..."
Seeing Master Lu’s nostalgic and reminiscent expression, Lin Chang’an and Yun Yao dared not interrupt.
But looking at the Spirit Supplement Pill formula, Lin Chang’an also secretly marveled at Master Lu’s talent.
The Heaven Repairing Pill uses the demon pill of a transformed great demon for guidance; either two of yin and yang, or five of the five elements. After the cultivator consumes and refines it, it can enhance their spirit root aptitude to the celestial spirit root level.
But after Master Lu’s improvement, using tier three demon pills, it can be refined into a lower level Spirit Supplement Pill, though the effect would be weakened.
"No wonder there were rumors that Master Lu was injured while hunting a tier three great demon in the Demon Beast Abyss."
At this time, upon deeper reflection, it seemed Master Lu had taken such risks for making the Spirit Supplement Pill for his daughter.
Although it’s currently too far for him, in the future, it might become useful. Lin Chang’an firmly memorized the pill formula, and Yun Yao did the same.
Even if they couldn’t use it themselves, remembering it wouldn’t hurt.
"Thank you, Master Lu."
Lin Chang’an and Yun Yao both bowed respectfully, while Master Lu, with no airs at all, amiably began to address the doubts they had in cultivation.
This was undoubtedly a genuine senior Golden Core cultivator, and Lin Chang’an and Yun Yao naturally didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
With smiles all over their faces, they eagerly asked about their cultivation problems one by one.
...
Three days later.
Master Lu began to show signs of fatigue, which Lin Chang’an observed with a sigh, realizing that Master Lu’s condition indeed seemed unfavorable.
This wasn’t a lengthy time.
But it was profitable.
[Evergreen Skill (Proficient: 312/500)]
Seeing the proficiency of this ancient cultivation technique leap by nearly a hundred directly, Lin Chang’an felt a surge of joy.
Indeed, being guided by a renowned master and being without one was worlds apart.
"Thank you, Master Lu."
Not only Lin Chang’an, but Yun Yao nearby also benefited greatly, standing up and bowing respectfully.
Just the guidance in cultivation today was already rewarding.
Seeing this, Su Miaoyin respectfully invited the two out.
"Mr. Lin, Sister Yun, my master is tired; please follow me."
The two then respectfully bid farewell to Master Lu and followed Su Miaoyin to the side hall.
"Mr. Lin, I heard from Sister Yun that you previously hunted a quasi-tier three demon beast and plan to refine a top-grade spiritual artifact. Just in time, there’s an artifact refiner in Celestial Profound City..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chang’an was naturally overjoyed and thanked with a bow.
"Thank you, Mr. Su."
Su Miaoyin shook her head with a smile, then gifted him several bottles of tier three spirit liquid.
Turning to Yun Yao, she gifted a spiritual object filled with a cold and dark aura.
This aura was obviously a tier three spiritual object.
"Sister Yun, your cultivation technique is extremely dangerous, so you should accept this tier three spiritual object."
"Thank you, Mr. Su."
Yun Yao also solemnly accepted it, as this heavy gift was of immense help to her.
Afterward, Su Miaoyin took them to tour the entire Celestial Profound Peak, eventually stopping by a Spirit Lake, where they enjoyed tea, discussed Dao, exchanged cultivation insights, and shared anecdotes from the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Especially Lin Chang’an, who carefully inquired about the situation of the Demon Beast Abyss.
Before leaving, Su Miaoyin even gave them a few bottles of spirit liquid and three plump spirit fish.
...
After leisurely returning to the cave dwelling, Lin Chang’an took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"A Golden Core cultivator, encountered just like that? Today was indeed profitable!"
Lin Chang’an, full of excitement, closed the cave dwelling and set up restrictions before beginning to take out today’s gains.
The Spirit (Heaven) Pill formula, ten bottles of tier three spirit liquid, three spirit fish, and even more precious, the guidance from a Golden Core cultivator.
Especially the tier three spirit liquid, if possible, he’d like to exchange it for a tier three demon pill, but although they’re both tier three, the values are worlds apart.
A tier three demon pill is evidently much more valuable.
"Record this pill formula and save it; you might need it in the future."
Lin Chang’an nodded silently; though he lacks the ability now, it doesn’t mean he won’t need it after forming a core.
"And this tier three spirit liquid, Mr. Su really has a keen mind."
Lin Chang’an secretly sighed, as his low-grade spirit root, this tier three spirit liquid is the best auxiliary cultivation treasure.
"Currently as a tier two upper-grade Talisman Master and a tier two middle-grade Pill Master, there are many things to do. However, witnessing the Array Dao this time was truly an eye-opener.
Be it for the cave dwelling ruins after more than ten years or enhancing power, if there’s a chance in Array Dao, it mustn’t be missed."
Lin Chang’an pondered deeply; back in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, the might of the tier three Four Symbols Xuanwu Array, with Su Miaoyin deploying it with Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm.
They were able to resist a Golden Core attack, which truly amazed him.
His requirements in Array Dao aren’t high, just breaking through to tier two after more than ten years would add to his power, however small.
"Next, it’s time for the lifebound spirit plant to enjoy this spirit liquid."
Lin Chang’an sat cross-legged, operated his cultivation technique, and summoned his lifebound spirit plant, slowly absorbing the tier three spirit liquid.
The withered leaves of the Profound Celestial Immortal Vine were visibly regaining green threads under the nourishment of the high-level spirit liquid, gradually reviving.
Simultaneously, a mysterious aura began to slowly feedback, enhancing Lin Chang’an’s self-healing body’s strength and causing subtle changes in his divine sense.
...
Meanwhile, at Celestial Profound Peak.
The previously fatigued Master Lu, emanating Cangmu Qi, was now sitting by the Spirit Lake, full of energy, casting a fishing line.
"Master, the people have left."
With Su Miaoyin reporting, Master Lu nodded with a light smile.
"This child Yun is quite good, resolute in temperament, but that other youngster, coming into my field, his eyes were almost like he wanted to drink up my Spiritual Spring."
At this thought, Master Lu couldn’t help but chuckle, seeing a reflection of his younger self.
"Ah, those loose cultivators, so impoverished."
Su Miaoyin beside him shared the sentiment, remembering how she too fought desperately for every bit of resource.
"This time, after removing some with ulterior motives, make good use of those who remain. Also, the Immortal Cultivation Realm has never been about impulsive arrogance.
You’re lucky to have me, your father, shielding you upfront. With this core formation, you must form an immortal Golden Core, or it will be extremely challenging to improve further in the future."
At these words, Master Lu showed a grave expression.
When he fortuitously received the heritage, there was a Heaven Repairing Pill, which transformed his spirit root aptitude.
But his daughter had no Heaven Repairing Pill, only the lower-quality Spirit Supplement Pill he improved.
Now, Su Miaoyin’s spirit root aptitude has been refined almost to the near earth-grade spirit root, needing only further refinement to have a thirty percent chance of forming an immortal Golden Core.
There’s a sixty percent chance for a top-grade Golden Core.
"Forming a core quickly doesn’t define a genius; it’s the long journey that counts."
Master Lu’s meaningful gaze was understood by Su Miaoyin, who knew this truth well, hence why she had been refining herself over the years.
"Yes, Master!"
