“Sister-in-law, this really can't be!”

Luo Chen quickly declined, ordinarily grabbing a little food is no big deal.

But this soup, it's for Qin Liangchen to replenish his Qi and blood, and this concerns the upcoming life-and-death fight.

Even with his thick skin, he didn't dare to drink this soup.

Murong Qinglian, however, insisted on placing the soup bowl on Luo Chen's table.

“This is just some leftovers, your Big Brother Qin has drunk all the essence, you don't need to refuse.”

“But ”

“There's no buts about it, unless you don't like your sister-in-law's cooking.”

“Uh, okay then!”

Luo Chen stopped declining and simply drank the small bowl of soup cleanly.

“The Blood Evil Qi Tiger is a Second Order Demon Beast, its bone soup is a great tonic for Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators. Although it's just a small bowl, you're also at the middle stage of Qi Refinement, and it should bring you great benefits.”

Murong Qinglian took away the small bowl, reminding Luo Chen not to waste the medicinal power of this bowl of soup.

After she left, Luo Chen was full of emotion.

Although it was challenging living in this alien land since crossing over, there were still many good people he encountered on his cultivation path.

There's Sun Shou, who rented him a room for half a Spirit stone, Chen Xiuping who offered a stall, and these good neighbors in the yard.

He started to think that the perks for his transmigration were not only the Proficiency Attribute Panel.

“Maybe, my luck is also filled up!”

While he was thinking about all this, he naturally set aside the bad people like the short-lived Chen Xiao and the poor Gao Tingye.

They were nothing more than a few hardships on his path of cultivation!

As he was reflecting, a surge of heat began to spread from his stomach.

Hot, impulsive, strong, with all sorts of illusions, he almost felt bloated.

Thinking of Murong Qinglian's words just now, Luo Chen didn't dare to delay and immediately went back to his room to cultivate.

He had been hesitating whether or not to push forward today, but now there was no need to worry.

But this cultivation session lasted a full two hours.

When Luo Chen opened his eyes, a feeling of vitality surged.

He clenched his fist, feeling as if he could kill a tiger!

Of course, he could have killed a regular tiger before this.

But that was relying on spirit power and techniques, and now, the strength of his own body gave him this impressive sensation.

“This is just a small bowl of tiger bone soup!”

“If I could drink this tiger bone soup every day, my body might eventually become as formidable as the Blood Evil Qi Tiger.”

The fantasy was fleeting.

What a joke, this tiger bone soup is made from Second Order Spirit Material, which he couldn't afford at the moment.

Of course, the benefits brought by this bowl of tiger bone soup were not merely physical robustness and increased Qi and blood.

Luo Chen pulled up the attribute panel again.

In the column for cultivation technique, it now read[Grandmaster-level Longevity Technique 501/1000].

Grandmaster level!

Thinking back to those two hours, especially the last time he rotated the Longevity Technique, Luo Chen was beaming with joy.

The Grandmaster-Level Longevity Technique brought about miraculous changes.

Firstly, it perfectly adapted to his body, as if it was specially designed for him.

Originally, only the five major and six minor meridians were activated during a complete rotation.

But now, during the flow of spirit power, the remaining seven meridians and two extra vessels were tapped into.

Though they were only opened slightly and could only flow a small amount of spirit power, Luo Chen knew what it meant for the twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians to be opened.

That meant the efficiency of his refining spirit Qi in the future would significantly increase.

Even the speed of refining elixirs would be doubled because more meridians can be used to digest the elixir's power.

He used to be able to refine only one Qi-nurturing pill a day, but now, he can take two pills a day.

As long as he has enough spirit stones, Luo Chen's speed of cultivation can virtually double suddenly.

Of course, opening up the twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians comes with a cost.

All of his Fourth-level Qi Refining Stage spirit power was almost drained.

And it was precisely because of this depletion, Luo Chen learned of the second change brought by the Grandmaster-level Longevity Technique.

“It can actually automatically restore Qi!”

Automated Qi recovery means it can restore spirit power on its own.

Luo Chen can feel that even if he doesn't actively circulate the Longevity Technique, his body still sends out waves of hunger.

He now resides in the Inner City, a First-Order Spirit Vein Land.

Even though most of the spirit qi has been sucked away by other powers through their spirit gathering array, the density of Qi in the outside world is still considerable.

Under the influence of these hunger signals, his body seems to be incredibly permeable, naturally absorbing the spirit Qi from the outside world.

This absorption speed is roughly one-tenth of full force circulation.

Although it's not much, it's happening every second and every minute.

“With this, I won't have to worry about over-consuming spirit power when practicing techniques in the future!”

Luo Chen was overjoyed.

The reason why his technique proficiency has been increasing slowly all along was due to lack of Spirit Power.

The human body is like a sealed treasure, and the dantian is the container that gathers spirit power.

To break through boundaries, the total amount of spirit power needs to constantly escalate.

Quantitative changes cause qualitative changes, breaking the shackles.

Therefore, whenever cultivators want to break through, they ensure themselves in a perfect state for each training session, such that every bit of spirit qi they refine would increase their spirit power slightly.

The container will be stretched a little more, thereby breaking the limit of the sealed treasure.

But when cultivating or practising techniques, cultivators would squander loads of spirit qi.

Under such circumstances, running cultivation techniques cannot really increase spirit power or break boundaries, it's only about restoring the original perfect state, that's it.

The slow increase in Luo Chen's proficiency in techniques was due to his need to focus on breaking through the boundaries.

That's why he has been strictly controlling the number of times he practices various techniques each day.

The Fireball Technique which consumes the most gets practised four times a day, the Entanglement Technique occasionally once or twice, and the Cleaning Technique very rarely.

The Attraction Technique and Spirit Vision Technique, which consume relatively less spirit power, are practised at least ten times a day.

Even under these circumstances, he had trouble increasing the upper limit of spirit power through his own cultivation and had to rely on Qi Nurturing Pill.

But now, he can automatically recover qi.

This means he can practice techniques more liberally and increase proficiency.

“The Grandmaster Level Longevity Technique not only increases my cultivation speed but actually also enhances my combat power.”

“As long as I work hard enough, I have the time to max out all kinds of techniques.”

Luo Chen had not yet seen the power of max-level techniques.

But just the Grandmaster Level Fireball Technique alone allowed him to develop the Flying Flame Fireflies, a minor killer move.

So his excitement was justified.

After his excitement, his abundant energy seemed to have dissipated quite a bit.

After continuous cultivation for so long, his body could hold up, but his mind was somewhat worn down.

Luo Chen didn't force himself and simply went to sleep.

When he woke up, he felt even more refreshed.

He couldn't help but run the Longevity Technique again.

This time he took even more care to appreciate the intricacies of the Grandmaster Level Longevity Technique.

Half an hour later, he opened his eyes, his whole body radiating with delight.

“The efficiency of refining spirit qi has doubled again!”

“It's almost comparable to the normal cultivation efficiency of a Triple Spirit Root Cultivator.”

If the initial cultivation efficiency of the Five Spirit Roots qualification is considered the standard, the Perfection Level Longevity Technique doubled it, bringing him to twice the standard of the Quadruple Spirit Roots qualification.

But now, Luo Chen distinctly felt that his efficiency of transforming the spirit qi has reached four times the standard.

He was previously uncertain about his own standard of efficiency.

But his time spent with Qin Liangchen gradually affirmed this set of calculations.

Because Qin Liangchen had Triple Spirit Root Talent, he was now forty-nine years old.

When he started cultivating at the age of seventeen, he perfectly missed the age limit for the sect to recruit disciples.

It took him over thirty years to advance to the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement.

In his words, if he didn't have to worry about his livelihood halfway through and didn't have to expend spirit power to practice techniques and accustom himself to magical tools, at least ten years could've been saved.

In other words, he didn't need over thirty years, but at most over twenty years, a Triple Spirit Root talent could advance to the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement.

Of course, from the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement to the Foundation Establishment Stage, it's another considerably long period, far surpassing all previous time.

Let's not consider the time from the ninth level to foundation establishment for now.

The cultivation speed of Qin Liangchen when compared to Luo Chen's Five Spirit Roots and Chen Xiuping's Quadruple Spirit Roots fit really well with the efficiency standard algorithm set by Luo Chen.

Basing on this set of calculations, Luo Chen was able to ascertain his current position.

“Without considering the elixirs, my cultivation speed is comparable to a Triple Spirit Root Cultivator.

A Triple Spirit Root Cultivator!

This is already the qualification threshold to pursue the Great Dao Path.

In the case of ample resources, I can establish the foundation in as little as four to five decades, and at most a century.”

Luo Chen has always been concerned about his lifespan.

He practiced so many techniques and his realm also upgraded a few times, but his lifespan remained the same.

That's why he always had a sense of urgency.

It was as if a sword was hanging over his head.

Now, the Grandmaster Level Longevity Technique has finally made that sword drift slightly further from him.

Of course, to completely remove this sword, he still needs to meet one condition.

“Ample resources!”

“So, making money, making money, I still have to make money!”
