Chapter 29 Insufficient Points
“Can Spirit Stones also shorten the time needed to cultivate the Pure Yang Avatar?”
Chen Mobai’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“The ‘Pure Yang Avatar’ is actually a type of cultivation technique, and no cultivation technique can lack spiritual energy. The reason why I spent 20 years cultivating the Three-Yang Body is because I wasted time refining spiritual energy when transforming my Spiritual Root. With the help of Spirit Stones, I would have been able to save at least 10 years of hard work.”
Old Ding did not hide anything and told Chen Mobai about his 20 years of experience in the academy.
It turned out that when one cultivated the Pure Yang Avatar, they also needed spiritual energy to transform their Spiritual Root. Without Spirit Stones, when their spiritual energy was exhausted, they would need to convert and absorb spiritual energy at the same time.
Why didn’t Daoist Shao Yang’s video mention this?
After hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but find it strange, but he immediately reacted.
The Spirit Stones on Planet Earth had basically all been taken back by the country. Ordinary cultivators did not have them at all.
Since they didn’t have Spiritual Stones, there was naturally no need to talk about them.
In that case, the Pure Yang Manual was not impossible for Chen Mobai to cultivate.
There was indeed no way to obtain a large number of Spirit Stones in the Immortal Sect, but it was different in the Heavenly River Realm.
According to the Jade Wave Mansion Accounts that Chen Mobai had read, the cultivation world there did not seem to lack Spirit Stones. Even a third-rate sect like the Flying Needle Sect could distribute Spirit Stones to every disciple as a benefit.
However, if he wanted to obtain Spirit Stones, he had to leave the water mansion and come into contact with the true cultivation world in the Heavenly River Realm.
Thinking of this, Chen Mobai hesitated again.
He thought of the two Heavenly River Realm cultivators who had died in the water mansion not long ago. It seemed normal for them to turn on others and stab others in the back. Their words also told of the chaos and disorder in the Eastern Wastelands.
The Heavenly River Realm should still be in the era of feudal civilization. There might be danger everywhere.
He might be beaten to death as soon as he left the water mansion.
Chen Mobai muttered to himself and asked how many Spirit Stones were needed to cultivate the “Pure Yang Avatar”.
“I’m not sure. After all, I only heard Senior mention this matter back then and didn’t personally experience it. I might have to look up some ancient books to confirm it.”
Old Ding frowned and shook his head.
About 5,000 years ago, Spirit Stones were still circulating normally in the market. In that era, there were cultivators who used Spirit Stones to cultivate the Pure Yang Avatar. However, it might take some effort to find such ancient information.
Chen Mobai nodded and decided to go back and look for it. If he didn’t need many Spirit Stones, he would consider switching to the Pure Yang Manual after reaching the late stages of the Qi Refinement Realm.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
As soon as Old Ding finished speaking, his disciple, Song Zheng, opened the door.
“Teacher.”
At the door, Song Zheng bowed to Old Ding politely. Then, he looked at Chen Mobai and frowned slightly, as if wondering why he was here. “Teacher Ding, I’ll ask you about the lightning restriction next time.”
Chen Mobai was also very observant and did not stay any longer, disturbing their conversation.
Although they were classmates, his relationship with Song Zheng was only so-so. It was mainly because the latter was a hardworking person and would not waste time on socializing. They both nodded as a greeting. After leaving the office, before the first batch of third-year students in the cultivation room came out, Chen Mobai returned to the classroom. He turned on his phone and typed in the keyword, searching for the relationship between the Pure Yang Avatar and Spirit Stones.
In the end, he found a relevant post on a forum.
The title of the post was: “How long does it take to master the Pure Yang Avatar?”
It seemed that a new student of Pure Yang Academy was asking for guidance from his seniors.
There were more than 50 replies to the post, and one of them was from a Pure Yang Academy student with a good family background. He mentioned that using Spirit Stones could shorten the time needed to cultivate the Pure Yang Avatar.
[My ancestors participated in the exploration war and stored some Spirit Stones in the bank. After I entered the Pure Yang Academy, my family was very excited, so they took them all out for me to cultivate. Based on my experience, I have some data for reference.]
(For a One-Yang Body, if you want the best results in transforming your Spiritual Root, you need nine Spirit Stones. These nine Spirit Stones are used in accordance with the order in which your Spiritual Root is transformed. This way, the effect will be the best. Basically, you can increase your fire attribute points by nine points in the end. This stage takes a month.]
[A Two-Yang Body requires a lot more Spirit Stones. Because I don’t have enough Spirit Stones at home, I had to refine spiritual energy to pass this stage. In the end, it took me a year and three months.]
(Due to the fact that I had no Spirit Stones when working towards the Three-Yang Body, I had to cultivate diligently and sat idle for six years before achieving success.)
This anonymous cultivator was five years shorter than Perfected One Ming Yang, who had cultivated the Pure Yang Avatar for the shortest time without using Spirit Stones.
Chen Mobai was instantly tempted.
“I’ll take a look outside the water mansion first. If I can get Spirit Stones, I’ll try to cultivate.”
Chen Mobai, who had originally planned to rest in peace, could not hold back.
After all, there were only two months left until the college entrance examination. His chances of breaking through to the late stages of the Qi Refinement Realm were very slim. If he could master the One-Yang Body, he might be able to obtain an admission notice from Pure Yang Academy. At the thought of this, he could not help but log into his main account in the National Library. However, he was reminded that he did not have enough points and could not exchange for the Qi Refinement chapter of the Pure Yang Manual.
“Eh, why does a Qi Refinement cultivation technique require so many points?”
In Chen Mobai’s impression, the Qi Refinement chapter of the Five Elements Technique only cost 500 points. He had more than 3,000 points in his main account, so it should be more than enough to exchange for the Qi Refinement chapter of the Pure Yang Manual.
In the end, he realized that he needed 10,000 points.
Then, he looked at the next four chapters. Good God.
The Foundation Establishment chapter cost 100,000 points, the Core Formation chapter cost 1 million points, the Nascent Soul chapter cost 10 million points, and the Soul Formation chapter cost 100 million points. Moreover, one needed the corresponding level of permissions to download it.
For example, Chen Mobai’s main account in the National Library, “If I were the Qing Emperor!”, was certified as a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator. Even if he had 100 million points in his account, he could only download the Qi Refinement Chapter of the Pure Yang Manual.
“I’ll sell that Spirit Stone first. Coincidentally, Goumang Dao College will put up the Qi Replenishing Spiritual Water every day during this period of time. I’ll use my Karma Points to buy it. At that time, I’ll use the spiritual water to increase my cultivation and use the points I earned to exchange for the Qi Cultivation chapter of the Pure Yang Manual.”
Although Chen Mobai’s initiative was typically average, he had always been decisive when it came to his cultivation.
The Spirit Stone was like firewood in his hand. It was only valuable when used.
He decided that under the premise of breaking through to the late stages of the Qi Refinement Realm, he would cultivate the Pure Yang Avatar if possible.
One of the two Spirit Stones he had obtained from the water mansion had been consumed when he broke through to Qi Refinement Level-6. There was still a complete and unopened one left. If he went to the National Bank to exchange it, he would receive 10,000 Karma Points.
If it was placed on the market, due to the short supply, it could be sold for at least one to two thousand Karma Points.
