1137 Sifu, You Are So Naughty

"I understand! Other than with Sifu, I will not discuss this matter with anyone else!" Chen Xiaobei quickly changed the subject and said, "There's one more thing: Six Ear Macaque and Jiang Ziya have already joined forces with me. But not long ago, the heavenly realm sent three Heavenly Soldiers to take them away!"

"That's normal. The Primordial Lord of Heaven knows that Six Ear Macaque and Jiang Ziya are a major threat to him. He will do all he can to make sure that no one will stand in his way."

"Do you mean that the Chanism will continue to send people down?"

"Of course! But you don't have to worry about it too much. All those deities' power that comes down from heaven to the earth will be stripped greatly. And there are too many eyes on Chanism right now. They won't dare to do it in the public too often. Also, it's not a bad thing that deities come down from heaven to look for you guys! This time you've got something good, right?"

"Something good?" Chen Xiaobei contemplated then laughed. "Sifu! You are so wise! After the Heavenly Soldiers left, Xiao Tianquan's little brother Wang Cai left a Returning Bracelet for me! This baby is really useful!"

"That's right!" The corner of the Prime of Tongtian's lips curled up into a cheeky grin. "You have to be careful and work hard at increasing your cultivation! Then when the Primordial Lord of Heaven sends someone down again, you can beat them into a pulp! Strip everything off them and kick their asses back to the heavenly realm!"

"Strip them off? Sifu, you are so naughty. Hehe…"

"Ahem, ahem. I did not say anything!"

The Prime of Tongtian mocked a serious expression.

"I understand!"

"Alright, if there's nothing else, go ahead and continue to train. I will inform you when Lady Nuwo returns."

The Prime of Tongtian gave his last orders and then vanished from Chen Xiaobei's mind.

"Goodbye Sifu!"

Chen Xiaobei bowed to the Prime of Tongtian in his mind.

One day of training, thousands of years had passed. 

This was used to describe the lifeless state that those undergoing training would not need to drink or eat. Their training could last thousands of years but they would feel like only a day had passed. 

It was quite an exaggeration when used to describe Chen Xiaobei but when he finally woke up, it was already the morning of a new day.

...

Chen Xiaobei opened his eyes slowly and saw that the rhombic sun rising from the north. The lilac glow lit up the ground below, sending a comfortable warmth all throughout the place.

There was a flight of orange-tailed little birds chirping on the branches. When the wind blew, they launched into the air, cavorting.

Seeing the abundance and exuberant life around him, Chen Xiaobei's mood improved.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of Celestial Cultivation; Health: 90,300; Combat power: 70,000]

Chen Xiaobei sighed inwardly as he stood up and stretched his back.

"I've been training for one whole day but my health only increased by 300… Urgh, this is too slow…"

When Chen Xiaobei first started training, his health or combat power would increase by 1,000 in one day.

Now his training speed had slowed by one third.

"No! It's not because my training speed had slowed. It's because after breaking through to Celestial Cultivation, training has become more difficult!"

Chen Xiaobei calculated. "Yesterday, I used up 3,000 Spiritual Stones worth of Spiritual Qis in one day! Last time, I would only need about 1,000. This proves that after breaking through to Celestial Cultivation, my training speed has actually increased by 3 times! The main factor affecting the speed is the Spiritual Qi's conversion rate! In the very beginning, 1,000 Spiritual Stones could be converted to 1,000 combat power and 1,000 health. But later on, 1,000 Spiritual Stones could only be converted to 300 combat power or health after I achieve True Nirvana cultivation."

Chen Xiaobei rubbed his chin and furrowed his brows as he counted. "That means one Spiritual Stone only increased 33 Attribute Points. It's so much slower now… And now that I've broken through to Celestial Cultivation, 3,000 Spiritual Stones only increases my health by 300. That is one spiritual stone for one Attribute Points! This is like those video games. The higher the level you reach, the more experience points you will need to level up!"

He sighed inwardly at his discovery. "It seems like using Spiritual Qi to train is no longer efficient. It's a waste of time. It's better to just gather more Spiritual Items and Spiritual Medicines. I can borrow Xiao'er's Special Ability to eat them and my cultivation will increase by leaps and bounds! Of course, the Saturn Peach is still the best. My cultivation soared right after eating it! But after that incident, I may never be able to eat it again… I just hope that Chanism is not looking for trouble with Old Jiang…"

Chen Xiaobei took out his phone to send a text but the 4G signal did not appear on the screen. There was no service.

"Thank god the Three Realms Red Envelope Group uses Three Realms Intranet!" Chen Xiaobei chuckled softly to himself as he texted Jiang Ziya.

Chen Xiaobei: Old Jiang, I've arrived safely in Northern Wilderness Starfield. Tell everyone not to worry!

The signal coverage was so good that Jiang Ziya received Chen Xiaobei's message after a second.

Jiang Ziya: That's good news! This time, your enemies are demigods! It's extremely dangerous to deal with them! Only you Xiaobei can do it so smoothly! If it were someone else, they would be injured badly or die.
