I Can Travel between Two Worlds-Chapter 34 - 33: Mastering Plant Spirits! Is He the Reincarnation of a True Monarch of Divinity Transformation?
Han Jihai slightly shook his head and said:
"Not so! Each has their strengths with Wood and Fire Spirit Roots compared to Earth and Wood Spirit Roots... but in the path of Alchemy, there is no higher or lower!"
Seeing Lin Chen’s face full of doubt, Han Jihai began to speak eloquently:
"Those with Wood Spirit Root, cultivate Wood Element True Essence Magical Power... In the way of the Five Elements, wood generates fire... With just Wood Spiritual Qi, even simple flames can erupt with high temperatures!"
"Moreover, in the path of Alchemy, Fire Spirit Root is not necessary... Whether it is using Earth Fire for Alchemy or taming Spiritual Fire or Beast Fire, all can be utilized!"
Han Jihai stroked his beard and continued:
"Of course, those with Fire Spirit Root have a natural advantage in learning Fire Techniques..."
"But as you possess Earth Spirit Root combined with Wood Spirit Root, you have a great advantage in the way of Spirit Plants; which is stronger or weaker is still unknown!"
Lin Chen listened, deep in thought.
Following this reasoning, he with Earth and Wood Spirit Roots is also very suitable for Alchemy.
"Moreover, if you can tame the legendary Divine Fire, even cultivators with Fire Spirit Root would be far inferior!"
Han Jihai showed a meaningful smile and finally said:
"If you truly wish to learn Alchemy, quickly perceive the Plant Spirits!"
"During this time, whether training or dining... stay in the Spirit Field!"
After speaking, Han Jihai left with a jade box, leaving Lin Chen alone.
"Perceive the Plant Spirits?"
Lin Chen, deep in thought, decided not to return to his room.
He used the earth as his bed, cross-legged in the Spirit Field, cultivating.
Even as night fell, Lin Chen remained unmoved.
Fortunately, the mountain remains springlike throughout the year, with few mosquito bites, making it not so unbearable.
...
Lin Chen stayed in the Spirit Field for two days and nights!
From the evening until the morning of the fourth day, Lin Chen continued to cultivate within the Spirit Field.
Aside from basic eating and drinking, he didn’t use Spirit Stones to cultivate, but instead felt the Wood Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth.
With the continual assimilation of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy into his Dantian, Lin Chen had a new understanding of the Plant Spirits.
Initially, he only felt the Wood Element Spiritual Energy was more abundant within the Spirit Field.
Gradually, he seemed able to sense each Spiritual Medicine in the Spirit Field as vibrant life.
As if there were unseen sprites dancing atop each Spiritual Medicine.
This feeling wasn’t seen with the naked eye, but perceived with the mind.
"Is this the Plant Spirits?"
As the sky brightened, Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes and whispered.
"After perceiving the Plant Spirits, can I establish a connection with them?"
Lin Chen tried to extrapolate.
He activated the Evergreen Technique, releasing the refined and purified Wood Element Magical Power.
Soon, he felt the unseen Plant Spirits gathering to enjoy his magical power.
After a while, the Plant Spirits seemed satisfied, inhabiting the Spiritual Medicines, dozing off.
Then, a miraculous scene occurred.
Spiritual Medicines that originally needed several dozen days to mature suddenly blossomed and bore fruit, maturing swiftly!
Lin Chen was shocked by the scene, pondering:
"So that’s the way of maturing Spiritual Medicine with Wood Spiritual Qi?"
"Feeding the Plant Spirits with magical power... and in return, the Plant Spirits mature the Spiritual Plants!"
Lin Chen slightly extended his fingers, as if he could see Plant Spirits dancing at his fingertips.
Cultivators with Wood Spirit Root, feeding the Plant Spirits with True Essence to mature Spiritual Plants, is indeed a great advantage!
In the distance, Han Jihai, preparing to deliver breakfast, stared blankly at the scene...
Only to hear a clatter!
Startled, Han Jihai lost grip.
The precious Spiritual Food fell to the ground, soiled.
But Han Jihai didn’t mind; he was utterly amazed by Lin Chen’s scene of maturing Spiritual Medicine.
"Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable above... what kind of disciple have I taken?"
"Could this boy be the reincarnation of a True Monarch of Divinity Transformation!?"
Han Jihai trembled, looking at Lin Chen nearby.
He had never seen such a gifted disciple.
Being talented in cultivation was remarkable, but having such acute perception...
More importantly... even in sensing nature, he had an exceptional affinity!
"Heaven has eyes... could it be in my later years, I truly found an ideal successor?"
Han Jihai took a deep breath, unable to hide his inner excitement.
Thinking of those previous odd disciples he had, and then looking at Lin Chen now.
"Why is there such a gap between the disciples I took?" he couldn’t help but think.
Han Jihai didn’t disturb Lin Chen’s perception.
After watching for a while, he went to prepare Lin Chen another meal.
By noon, Lin Chen ended his perception of the Plant Spirits.
Glancing at the countdown on his arm, it read 17 hours and 39 minutes.
Just this one perception session took Lin Chen three days!
There were less than eighteen hours left until returning to Blue Star.
"Though it took quite some time, it was worthwhile..."
Lin Chen looked at the nearby Spiritual Medicine.
In one morning, he had matured more than ten Spiritual Medicines almost ripe.
This, while his magical power was still low; upon reaching late Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment Stage, the speed of maturing Spiritual Medicine will be greatly accelerated.
"The cultivation is close to the Third Layer of Qi Refining, and my Qi Control Skill seems to have reached Minor Achievement!"
Lin Chen was slightly pleased, having gained much insight into the Plant Spirits.
"Successfully perceiving the Plant Spirits... does that mean I can soon officially pursue Alchemy?"
Lin Chen pondered to himself.
Meanwhile, Han Jihai, who had been watching from a distance, also came forward with the meal.
"Chen’Er!"
Han Jihai called out, looking at Lin Chen with a complicated expression.
He truly considered Lin Chen as the reincarnation of a True Monarch of Divinity Transformation... taking on a former True Monarch as a disciple placed great pressure on him!
Lin Chen didn’t notice Han Jihai’s subtle expression; he greeted Han Jihai with a salute and said:
"Master!"
Hearing this title, Han Jihai shuddered, instinctively feeling a bit nervous.
But seeing Lin Chen’s earnest face, he still handed over the Spiritual Food, saying:
"Ahem, good disciple... have your Spiritual Food first!"
Lin Chen took the Spiritual Food and began to feast.
Soon the Spiritual Food was finished, and Lin Chen, thinking for a moment, still asked:
"Master, I’ve already perceived the Plant Spirits... can I start learning the path of Alchemy?"
Lin Chen was already eager to begin, wanting to engage in the path of Alchemy as soon as possible.
After hearing this, Han Jihai stroked his beard and contemplated.
He originally estimated that Lin Chen would take at least six months to perceive the Plant Spirits.
At that point, he should be at least in mid Qi Refining cultivation, precisely suitable for starting Alchemy.
But unexpectedly, Lin Chen mastered the use of Plant Spirits in just three days, far exceeding his expectations.
"Well, since I promised him before, as a master, I cannot go back on my word..."
Han Jihai, understanding himself, stroked his beard and smiled:
"Indeed, Chen’Er, your talent in perceiving the Heaven and Earth Spirits... slightly exceeded my predictions."
"Originally, I planned to find a Beast Fire to aid you in Alchemy."
"But there’s no time to find one now... I can only send a message to your senior who’s on an outside mission to look for one."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen felt slightly joyful and quickly said:
"Master, does this mean you’re willing to teach me Alchemy?"
Han Jihai stroked his beard and said:
"Indeed, in two hours, I will open the furnace for Alchemy... at that time, you will assist me alongside!"
