Chapter 632: Chapter 264 – Five Times the Cultivation Speed!_1
[Foundation Establishment Third Layer 10/100]
Seven months ago, Luo Chen broke through to the third level of Foundation Establishment.
Now, more than half a year has passed, and the progress bar has reached 10.
This is excluding the time spent helping Wang Yuan in his Foundation Establishment and being put into a deep sleep after being caught in the Heart Inquiry Mirror simulation.
So, within about half a year, he has completed one-tenth of the third layer of Foundation Establishment stage cultivation.
If he wants to break through to the fourth layer, it might require about five years of uninterrupted cultivation.
This speed can by no means be considered slow.
It’s worth the enormous amount of Spirit Stones he has spent.
In addition to being in a Lower Grade Immortal Mansion and continuously consuming Rising Dragon Pills, he’s also supplemented with Fierce Divine Fragrance and abundant Spirit Meals.
Such external cultivation environments are not something that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators can enjoy.
Like those Foundation Establishment cultivators back in the Great River District, they didn’t even have a stable Second Order Spirit Land.
Even if they have better potential than Luo Chen, they would still be overtaken by him.
If ordinary people knew about Luo Chen’s cultivation speed, they would definitely be filled with envy.
Yet, Luo Chen still finds it not enough!
Back in the Great River District, he relied on the remaining Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine and the Second Order Ascendant Grade Spirit Land, and he reached the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment after three years of Closed-Door Cultivation.
After coming to Tian Lan Immortal City and having better resources to assist him, he reached the third layer of Foundation Establishment in two and a half years.
To break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, at least another five years are needed.
Adding it all up, it’s over ten years!
The cultivation progress in the middle stage is ten times that of the early stage.
The progress of the late stage, that’s dozens, or even hundreds of times more than the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
Ten years! Hundred years! Thousand years!
At the end of the day, Luo Chen has only doubled his cultivation efficiency based on his original foundation.
“It’s not enough, far from enough!”
“Now that I’ve upgraded from a bird’s gun to a cannon, and comprehensively improved my external cultivation environment, I hope to further increase my cultivation efficiency!”
Thoughts flowed in his mind.
The Grandmaster Level “Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra” was fully activated.
In the quiet room, the massive Spirit Qi bound inside the cave converged towards him like streams flowing into the sea.
Half an hour later.
Luo Chen opened his eyes, looking inward at his Sea of Qi and carefully inspecting.
Finally, he nodded slowly.
The concentration of Spirit Qi in the Immortal Mansion has doubled, causing the amount of Spirit Power that his Natal Qi Technique can capture and refine in the same amount of time to also double.
But this growth does not fully belong to him.
“Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators can only fully activate their Natal Qi Technique two to three times a day, and I previously could do it five times a day.”
“Aided by Fierce Divine Fragrance, I can do it seven times a day.”
“But I still can’t fully utilize the Fierce Divine Fragrance, I can only absorb a bit more than two-thirds.”
“After the Heart Inquiry Mirror simulation, although I was weak for a while, I have recently recovered and feel that my Divine Soul Endowment has greatly increased.”
“I’m not exactly sure how much it has increased.”
“But I can test it by pushing my Natal Qi Technique to its limit!”
“Continue!”
Luo Chen took a deep breath and once again closed his eyes.
The quiet room, which had already calmed down, became agitated again as Luo Chen began to cultivate, and the rich concentration of Spirit Qi also began to churn once more.
Twice!
Three times!
…
Soon, it exceeded the original seven times.
The eighth run of Natal Qi Technique!
The ninth time!
Following the ninth time, Luo Chen faintly began to feel tired.
But he was also getting close to obtaining the data he wanted.
The Divine Soul Endowment has indeed increased!
What used to be an Divine Soul Endowment that was gradually approaching the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, has now truly reached the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment!
“But I feel that I’m still not at my limit!”
The Ice Silkworm Cushion beneath him emanated a few hints of refreshingly cool sensation, making him, who was somewhat tired, look energetic again.
Let’s do it one more time!
With his mind set, Luo Chen pulled out a jade bottle.
A Medium Grade Qi Condensing Pill!
This time, he wants to cultivate with the aid of a pill.
It’s said that the medicinal power of a Medium Grade Qi-synthesis Pill is more than double that of a Lower Grade Qi-synthesis Pill, but how much more is it compared to a Lower Grade Rising Dragon Pill?
The “Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra” started running again.
Inside, the pill melted, releasing a large amount of Spirit Qi.
Outside, the rich Spirit Qi of the Second Order Ascendant Grade Immortal Mansion was being swallowed into his body.
Within Luo Chen’s Sea of Qi, a flood of Spirit Qi rolled in.
The Spirit Power Vortex formed by the Cleanse Origin Pill Formula was almost shattered.
Luckily, throughout these three years.
He has already cultivated this technique to its Perfection.
He’s now capable of cleansing the origin and removing most of the pill poisons.
The nearly collapsing Spirit Qi Vortex eventually held on in the end.
Another half hour passed.
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes, looking slightly tired.
But his eyes were full of surprise and joy!
This night’s experiment, provided him with confirmation for all matters.
First, his Divine Soul Endowment has truly increased to the Late Stage Foundation Establishment level.
Second, with the Second Order Ascendant Grade Immortal Mansion, the Spirit Qi has doubled, and the external Spirit Qi captured during the cultivation process has also doubled.
Third, the Medium Grade Qi Unifying Pill, which significantly outperforms the Lower Grade Rising Dragon Pill, has almost doubled in potency.
Finally, all three factors combined has led to this result —
“My cultivation speed has increased by more than twice as compared to before!”
“Compared to when I first reached the Foundation Establishment Stage and only had a Second Order Lower Grade Spirit Land, my speed has increased by five times!”
To say this might still be less impactful.
If you calculate by the time it takes to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, it’s much simpler.
When he first started Foundation Establishment, Luo Chen estimated that he would need two thousand years to reach the Finalization Stage.
After arriving at Tian Lan Immortal City and making multiple efforts, he shortened this estimated time to a thousand years.
But now!
His cultivation speed allows him to reach the Finalization Stage of Foundation Establishment within four to five hundred years!
Even though this time still far exceeds the maximum lifespan of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
But such a significant improvement has indeed filled Luo Chen with hope.
