Chapter 38: Turning Calamity into Blessing

  Soft and wet! At this moment, Yuan Tian knew that it wasn't raining in the cave, but rather the blue-eyed unicorn was licking his face.

  Good boy! Pat the cow's head and respond to it. There is no cattle feed in the Qiankun bag, so I'll just give it a few grains of nourishing elixir to eat. The old cow is weak now, eating this should be beneficial. Feeding a second-level spiritual beast with nourishing elixir is truly extravagant.

  Calculating the Ling Stone is very frugal, but when it comes to spending money, it's very generous. The source of the ribs is indeed a contradictory combination.

  Then he did something even more generous, pouring out a pill of Yuan Dan and swallowing it. The man was being "good" to himself.

  After a good sleep, my physical strength has recovered, but the depleted spiritual energy still needs to be replenished. The Nourishing Qi Pill is too slow-acting, and the Cultivating Yuan Pill is too stimulating, although it's a bit pricey. Isn't this what they call "investing in the right tools"? Sharpening the knife doesn't delay chopping wood, so consider it an initial investment.

  Pigeon egg-sized Yuan Dan, indeed worthy of its price, one swallowed and immediately a surge of spiritual energy burst forth. Yuantian's body was now at the point of extreme hunger and thirst, frantically absorbing this spiritual energy, not willing to let a single thread go to waste.

  It's indeed that only after fully exhausting oneself can one absorb more fully. If Yuan Tian is made to practice until he's exhausted, it would be truly difficult. In fact, who is born to love suffering, and those who can persist in practicing every day are already very diligent. Is cultivating really for the sake of the Great Way? And who knows what the Great Way is, or what it looks like. A higher level of cultivation is for having a higher status, and afterwards one can live better according to their own will.

  This feeling of every meridian being full is really great. Yuan Tian couldn't help but swallow another Yuanyuan Dan, wanting an even more abundant feeling. The second pill went down, and this time it caused trouble. Absorbing was good, but the body's absorption had a limit. Even if all spiritual energy was emptied out, Rong Guan Yuan currently couldn't withstand the medicinal power of two Yuanyuan Dans.

  If it's absorbed slowly, it would be better, and some of it can be converted. But at this time, the absorption is particularly fast, and after a while, I feel over-full, with a feeling that my veins are about to burst.

  This is terrible! The spiritual energy is showing signs of going out of control, and some of the finer meridians are on the verge of collapse. If this continues, I'm afraid it will lead to a catastrophic explosion of the body.

  "Divine Dragon, come and help quickly, don't sleep anymore." At the critical moment, Yuan Tian thought of the Nine Provinces Golden Dragon sleeping in his own Sea of Consciousness. He didn't dare to call him lazy this time, but instead called out to the Divine Dragon with respect, having no choice when asking for help.

  "Idiot, let two pigeon eggs swell up to this size." Jiuzhou Golden Dragon flipped his eyelids and scorned Yuantian mercilessly.

  "Don't talk nonsense, I'm dead and it's not good for you either. Help me out, is there any good way to transform spiritual energy? Teach me." Pai Guo Yuan had been eating meat for a while after taking the Pei Yuan Dan, and his spiritual energy had increased, making him look slightly plumper now.

  At this moment, he didn't even have time to see if he had really gained weight, Yuan Tian clenched his teeth tightly, and the pain made him sweat coldly.

  "Idiot! Speed up the circulation of your technique and let the spiritual energy enter the main meridian cycle." The Nine Provinces Golden Dragon Clan's were all divine beasts practicing techniques, but there really wasn't anything good to pass on to Yuantian. However, basic knowledge it still understood.

  "I've tried, but the water control is too slow. Is there any other way?" The projection of Yuantian in the sea of consciousness was anxious, and the physical pain was transmitted to him at all times. If he hadn't been strong-willed enough, he would have fainted by now.

  "You didn't learn the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Cultivation Method before, and you're trying to guide it yourself?" Jiuzhou Golden Dragon was truly helpless towards this reckless skinny man.

  Xiao Zhou Tian's rotation method was suddenly remembered after being reminded by Jin Long. When he was in the Huaxia country, he liked to read some miscellaneous books when he had nothing to do. What Ren Du Er Mai, Xia Zhou Tian Da Zhou Tian, hadn't read less. But at that time, practicing according to it didn't seem to have any effect. This thing might be useful, but he didn't care and treated a dead horse as if it were alive.

  The Qi rises through Gu Zhong, Guan Yuan, Shi Men, and Qi Hai... then carries the spiritual energy from the Dan Tian directly upwards, breaking through Xuan Zhong, Yu Tang to reach Cheng Jiang hole. At this time, the body feels less painful, and the mouth involuntarily produces saliva, sweet like the nectar of the nine heavens. Swallowing it brings a refreshing sensation, relieving more than half of the body's dryness.

  He let out a sigh of relief as the spiritual energy's wild turbulence subsided, warmly nourishing every corner of his body.

  Wow! I've actually reached the middle of the sixth layer of Qi training, that's not bad. If I had eaten a few more Pei Yuan Dan earlier, I wonder what effect it would have had.

  "Right! You just ate all the pigeon eggs in the bottle, who knows, you might have burst into Baihui and Sanhua Juitou is awesome!" Jiuzhou Golden Dragon urged at the right time.

  "Damn it! Are you trying to kill me? Those two Pellet Dan almost took my life, go sleep!" Yuan Tian personally experienced it, how could he not know how dangerous it was just now, eating a few more is just imagination.

  This heartless and penniless skinny guy, just now was begging for a dragon god, this will make him sleep without any trouble. Traveling to such a place, not even giving some benefits. Helping with such a small matter, in Yuantian's view that is the duty of the Nine Provinces Golden Dragon.

  Pei Yuan's spiritual power is quite abundant, so why not take this opportunity to make more spirit symbols. The eighty-first layer defensive horse cloak is not willing to be sold to others, and the chain fire symbol is better to have more.

  "Bang, bang, bang." Thinking of earning Ling stones, Yuan Shouzi went crazy again. Speaking of Shouzi, Yuan Tian seems to have gained a bit of weight now. Especially on his face, it has become much more rosy. It's not clear whether it was supported by the spiritual energy or that small Zhou Tian Zhuan Yun method took effect.

  Blue-eyed unicorn, the old eyes full of tears looked at this skinny guy with a menacing grin. Why does the master go crazy whenever there's a red glow? With its spiritual beast brain, it can't figure out why.

  The remaining scraps were only enough to make two Three-Linked Flame Talismans, which wasn't the main focus anyway, just to avoid wasting paper. The Four-Linked Flame Talisman was the real goal of Yuan Tian's trip this time. He thought about going to an auction house to try it out and see what price he could get for it.

  This large piece of medium-grade spirit paper is probably enough to make twenty four-linked spirit talismans. It seems that I'll have to spend a bit more money now. Thinking this, Yuan Tian became even more energetic. He drew the seals with precision and stability, and when infusing them with spiritual energy, he was not stingy at all.

  Things didn't turn out as beautifully as imagined. After only making five 4-connection Flame Talismans, the medicinal effect of the Pei Yuan Dan was almost depleted. The Transfer Charm* is indeed effective in converting medicine power. However, dan medicine isn't something that can be taken continuously in large quantities after all. Let's just stop here for now. I still have to hurry back to the trading market and see how much the precious Cow Yellow can sell for.

  Looking at the cow yellow that was still smaller than half a palm, it had a golden glow. Yuan Tian could already imagine it, the green and green spirit stones pouring into his pocket.

  Brother Niu, you wait here for a while, I'll come find you after making some money. Through the master-slave contract, the blue-eyed unicorn cow had understood Yuan Tian's meaning and obediently lay in the mountain cave waiting for its master to return.

  Yuán tiān chū le dòng kǒu, fān shēn shàng le xiǎo zhǐ chuán. Méi yǒu le lǎo niú zhè ge zhòng wù, shùn fēng jiā xià pō lù. Zhēn yǒu zhǒng liǎng àn yuán shēng tí bù zhù, qīng zhōu yǐ guò wàn zhòng shān de gǎn jué.

  English Translation:

  The sky came out of the cave, and flipped onto the small paper boat. Without the old cow as a heavy object, it was smooth sailing with the wind at its back. It truly felt like the cries of monkeys on both banks couldn't stop, and the light boat had already passed through the mountains of ten thousand layers.
