Cultivation: I Can Solidify Equipment Attributes

Chapter 352: Chapter 341: Cyan Wood Longevity Skill Great Success

Inside the stone house, Li Yuan sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, his eyes slightly closed.

He wasn’t circulating any Cultivation Technique. Instead, he submerged his entire consciousness into his body, using an internal viewing method to repeatedly examine every inch of his Dantian’s walls.

After reaching Foundation Establishment Perfection, the Spiritual Power within his Dantian was saturated to its absolute limit. It was like a large vat filled to the brim with water; the surface was calm and still, but the walls of the vat were under more pressure than ever before.

After the ’Foundation Solidification and Origin Strengthening’ effect became permanent, his Dantian walls expanded outward, increasing its capacity by twenty percent. This meant he could hold more Spiritual Power, and it also meant that during Core Formation, he would need thicker walls to withstand the violent tremors of the Golden Core’s creation.

Li Yuan swept his Divine Sense across the inner walls of his Dantian, inch by inch.

The texture of the walls was far denser than it had been during the Late-stage Foundation Establishment. It was like a billet of iron that had been repeatedly hammered; impurities had been squeezed out of his body bit by bit, replaced by highly condensed crystals of Spiritual Power.

The effect of ’Foundation Solidification and Origin Strengthening’ had been constantly reinforcing these walls during his daily cultivation. Their current stability had long surpassed the level a normal Foundation Establishment Cultivator should possess.

He then circulated his energy through his meridians for a full cycle.

The main meridians were wide and clear, allowing Spiritual Power to flow without any obstruction. The twelve branch meridians were also in excellent condition, both elastic and resilient. The thirty percent bonus to the upper limit of Body Refining Techniques from ’Iron Bones and Golden Body’ had slowly seeped into the walls of every single meridian over his long period of cultivation.

Li Yuan withdrew his Divine Sense and opened his eyes.

Several days had passed since the ’Foundation Solidification and Origin Strengthening’ had become permanent. During this time, he had been suppressing his Cultivation, holding back from breaking through, and repeatedly performing internal examinations to check the state of his Dantian, meridians, and bones.

The conclusion was: his Foundation Establishment Perfection foundation was now completely stable.

The twenty percent increase to his Spiritual Power capacity from ’Foundation Solidification and Origin Strengthening’ had been fully accepted by his Dantian, becoming a part of his underlying potential. His physical body, through continuous Body Refining, had also filled most of the new gap in his Spiritual Power capacity.

He was fully capable of Core Formation.

Given his current level of preparation, the success rate for his Core Formation would not be low.

But he wasn’t in a hurry to begin.

Core Formation was far more complex than Foundation Establishment. He currently only understood the classifications of Golden Core Grade, and his knowledge of the Core Formation process itself was only cursory.

He knew far too little about the specific process of Core Formation, the crucial points to watch out for, and the potential accidents that could occur.

Besides, Core Formation was much more dangerous than Foundation Establishment.

After leaving the stone house, Li Yuan first paid a visit to the Spirit Field.

In the three-thousand-mu Spirit Field, the Wood Attribute Spirit Medicines were flourishing the most.

He had been practicing the Cyan Wood Longevity Skill in this area for a considerable time, creating a subtle resonance with the Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Field. The Master Level Soil Cultivation Skill continuously nourished the earth, and Spiritual Power flowed slowly through the soil, providing an exceptionally superior growing environment for the Spirit Medicines’ roots.

Li Yuan found a quiet corner at the edge of the Spirit Field, sat down cross-legged, and began circulating the Cyan Wood Longevity Skill.

The Cultivation Technique’s circulation path unfolded within his body. Spiritual Power flowed slowly along his meridians, starting from his Dantian, passing through the five organs—liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—before returning to the Dantian. With each completed Grand Circulation, his affinity for Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi increased slightly, and his corresponding cultivation efficiency grew steadily.

An hour later, as the fifteenth Grand Circulation finished, the Spiritual Power in his meridians suddenly became incredibly smooth.

The flow, which had previously required conscious effort to guide and maintain, now became a spontaneous cycle. The Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi flowed on its own along the Cultivation Technique’s established path, no longer needing any external push.

The panel appeared.

[Cyan Wood Longevity Skill: Great Success (0/3200)]

Li Yuan exhaled a breath of turbid air.

The Cultivation Technique reaching Great Success meant his control over Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi had risen to a new level.

He took out the Vessel Continuation Pill.

[Equipment Entry Preview: Vessel Healing (Green)]

[Effect: Injury recovery speed +50%]

[Permanence Condition Preview: Tier Two Wood Element Cultivation Technique has reached Great Success (Met)]

A thought flickered in Li Yuan’s mind.

[Equipped: Vessel Continuation Pill (Intact)]

[Vessel Healing (Green) has become a permanent entry]

A phantom image of the Vessel Continuation Pill solidified for a moment in the equipment slot, then transformed into a stream of green light that merged into his body. The empty slot then reappeared.

Almost at the exact moment the entry became permanent, Li Yuan felt a gentle, enduring restorative power emerge between his meridians and flesh. Even without actively circulating a Cultivation Technique, his injuries would now heal much faster than before. The effect was especially pronounced for internal injuries to his meridians and organs.

He stood up and walked back along the ridge between the fields.

Before he had even reached the edge of the Spirit Field, Wang Ting’an was already approaching.

"Li Dao You, I have good news."

Li Yuan looked at him.

"Those two cross-attribute cultivation Arrays we set up last time are operating with extreme stability."

Wang Ting’an’s voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"There haven’t been any abnormalities on the Fire Vein or Evil Vein sides. The fusion speed of the two veins in the convergence zone is even faster than we expected."

Li Yuan nodded.

"Let’s go down to the mine and see."

The two of them descended into the mine shaft together.

The temperature deep in the convergence zone was even higher than their last visit. The Fire Spiritual Power and Evil Qi permeating the air intertwined, creating a unique, scorching heat. The Array Patterns of the two cross-attribute cultivation Arrays were still operating steadily, with dark red and grayish-black light weaving together, continuously funneling the power of the Fire Vein and Evil Vein toward the convergence point.

Li Yuan walked up to the mine wall in the convergence zone and gently pressed his hand against the stone surface.

The mineral crust that had formed on the wall’s surface was nearly twice as thick as it had been ten days ago. Its color had also changed from a simple dark red to a mixed hue of dark red streaked with fine, grayish-black lines. He gently scraped off a piece of the crust with his fingernail, crushed it in his palm, and sensed the Spiritual Power contained within.

The Fire Spiritual Power and Evil Qi had already fused together, becoming indistinguishable from one another.

This fusion rate was much faster than what Array Master Lu had predicted.

This meant the first-stage goal of the cross-attribute cultivation Array had been achieved. The Fire Vein and Evil Vein were no longer just crudely mixed but had formed a stable fusion.

"The mixed layer is thickening faster than I expected," Li Yuan said. "We can start on the second mining site."

Wang Ting’an’s eyes lit up.

"I’ll arrange the manpower."

The two walked about fifty zhang deeper along the convergence zone and selected the location for the second mining site. This area was in a deeper part of the convergence zone where the fusion of the Fire Vein and Evil Vein was more complete, which should theoretically produce higher quality Fire Evil Stones.

After discussing the details, Li Yuan continued deeper, preparing to check the Array nodes one more time.

As he reached a narrow crevice in the rock, his gaze suddenly froze.

Embedded in the crevice was a fist-sized ore. Its surface shimmered with an interwoven luster of dark red and grayish-black, and the Spiritual Wave from within was far richer than any of the ordinary Fire Evil Stones nearby.

He reached out and pried the ore out.

It was heavy in his hand. The sensation alternated between icy cold and scorching hot, as if he were holding two diametrically opposed attributes tearing at each other. The patterns on the ore’s surface were exceptionally clear; the Fire Element and Evil Element Spiritual Power intertwined within it, forming an extremely complex resonant structure.

The panel appeared.

[Detectable Equippable Item: Flame Evil Spirit Stone (Intact)]

[Equipment Entry Preview: Flame Evil Spiritual Essence (Green)]

[Effect: Increases cultivation speed. For every Fire Element Magic and Evil Element Magic mastered, the entry’s effect will be further enhanced. Maximum increase of fifty percent to cultivation speed.]

[Permanence Condition Preview: Use Fire Element Magic or Evil Element Magic to kill thirty Tier One Middle Grade or higher Demon Beasts.]

[Current equipment slots are full (5/5). Replace a current item?]

Li Yuan glanced at his equipment slots.

After a moment of thought, he equipped it to replace ’Vein Hiding and Breath Concealing’.

"Equip."

[Equipped: Flame Evil Spirit Stone (Intact)]

[Flame Evil Spiritual Essence (Green) is now active]

[Flame Evil Spiritual Essence (Green) Permanence Condition: Use Fire Element Magic or Evil Element Magic to kill thirty Tier One Middle Grade or higher Demon Beasts (0/30)]

The instant the entry took effect, a gentle stream of Spiritual Power seeped out from the ore and spread along his meridians toward his Dantian. The Spiritual Power didn’t merge directly into his Dantian but instead formed a thin, amplifying network that covered the inner walls of his meridians and the surface of his Dantian’s barriers.

When Spiritual Qi drawn from the outside world passed through this network, it was automatically purified and amplified, thereby increasing his cultivation efficiency.

The effect wasn’t astonishing, but it was practical enough.

In his equipment slots, the progress bar for Flame Evil Spiritual Essence showed 0/30. Kill thirty Tier One Middle Grade or higher Demon Beasts using Fire or Evil Element Magic. The condition wasn’t too harsh; he could complete it by being a little more mindful during his routine extermination missions.

After returning to the surface from the mine shaft, Li Yuan and Wang Ting’an confirmed a few more details about the second mining site.

The Wang family would be responsible for personnel arrangements, Li Yuan would handle Array maintenance, and both parties would share responsibility for security patrols. The excavated Fire Evil Stones would be divided proportionally, and the ownership of the vein itself would remain unchanged.

With matters settled, Wang Ting’an left with his men to assemble the mining team, while Li Yuan turned and walked toward the outskirts of the market city.

He was going out to hunt Demon Beasts.

Firstly, it was to clear out nearby threats and maintain a safe environment around the market city. Secondly, it was to advance the permanence progress for the Flame Evil Spiritual Essence. By using a combination of Fire and Evil Element Magic, he should be able to rack up thirty kills quickly enough.

At the edge of the Ghost Mist Forest, a Tier One Top Grade Fire Lizard Beast was hunting its prey.

Li Yuan stood thirty zhang away, gathering a ball of crimson flame in his right hand.

Fireball Technique.

The flame shot from his hand, riding a wave of scorching air to strike the Fire Lizard Beast squarely on its back. With an explosion, the fire engulfed the entire Demon Beast. A few breaths later, only a charred corpse remained on the ground.

The panel appeared.

[Flame Evil Spiritual Essence (Green) Permanence Condition: Use Fire Element Magic or Evil Element Magic to kill thirty Tier One Middle Grade or higher Demon Beasts (1/30)]

Li Yuan dismissed the Magic and continued walking forward.

There were plenty of Demon Beasts in the Ghost Mist Forest. As long as he was patient and cleared them out, reaching the target of thirty would not be difficult.
