With the aid of the Fasting Pill, Xiao Chen did not need to eat for half a month. All he had to do was focus on cultivating. This saved him a lot of time compared to regular cultivators. However, the feeling of loneliness was hard to describe.
Cultivating bitterly alone was even more boring than hiding in a room to refine medicine. However, from the first day he arrived in this world, Xiao Chen understood that in this Tianwu Continent where the strong preyed on the weak, only the strong could obtain the dignity and honor that they deserved.
There was no such thing as shortcuts on the path of the strong. Reaping without sowing only existed in novels. In this world, only by enduring true loneliness and putting in a million times the effort could one become a true strong person.
Just like that, Xiao Chen tirelessly cultivated day after day. Occasionally, birds would fly by and the sound of insects would enter his ears, but it had nothing to do with him. His entire mind was immersed in this mysterious world of cultivation.
After seven days, Xiao Chen's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened. A purple light shot out from his eyes. Xiao Chen got up and stretched his arms and legs. He took a deep breath and his entire body felt very comfortable.
Seven days, a total of seven days. With the aid of the Essence Nurturing Pill, Xiao Chen finally broke through to the second layer of the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation. Everything seemed to be going smoothly without any obstructions.
With miraculous Spirit Pills and the abundant Spiritual Energy in this place, breaking through to the second layer within a week was not strange at all.
After the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation reached the second layer, he would be able to condense his Spiritual Sense. Xiao Chen was very excited. He quickly followed the method in the Compendium of Cultivation and sank his consciousness, sensing the Spiritual Sense in his mind.
After a while, a world that he had never seen before appeared in front of him. In the boundless space, there was a green dot giving off a faint glow. This was Xiao Chen's Spiritual World.
With a thought, the Spiritual World instantly turned into a magnificent palace. Xiao Chen was ecstatic. It was indeed like what was recorded in the Compendium of Cultivation. In the Spiritual World, he was the master of it. Whatever he wanted, he could shape it.
The so-called Divine Sense was actually the will that existed in the mind of a cultivator, and it was no different from the will of an ordinary person. It was just that a cultivator's mind, after being sublimated, could move at will, turning intangible into tangible. This palace in the spiritual space could be seen as the embodiment of Xiao Chen's mind.
The next step was to release his Spiritual Sense. After thinking for a while, the Spiritual Sense in his mind immediately spread out. In an instant, the world within five hundred meters appeared in Xiao Chen's mind. Every blade of grass, every tree, and every Spirit Beast of various sizes appeared in Xiao Chen's mind.
No, it was even more magical than seeing it with his own eyes. Xiao Chen could even feel the breathing of these spirit beasts, their pulses, and the beating of their hearts.
Suddenly, the green dot in his spiritual space seemed to be unwilling to be left out. It followed Xiao Chen's divine sense and unexpectedly released it. The Spirit Core unexpectedly fused with his divine sense.
After his Spiritual Sense and Spiritual Sense fused, he started to quickly scan the surrounding flora and fauna. After a round of identification, something else appeared in Xiao Chen's mind.
The Spirit Herbs hidden in the weeds were discovered one by one. The medicinal properties and medicinal age of the herbs, these intuitive information actually appeared in Xiao Chen's mind.
Surprisingly, after his divine sense and Spiritual Sense fused, it actually had the ability to search for herbs. Not far from Xiao Chen, there were a few extremely well-hidden herbs hidden in the weeds.
Withdrawing his divine sense, Xiao Chen walked towards the place he had just scouted. Indeed, behind the weeds, there were a few stalks of exuberant white Wind Spirit Grass. Behind the Wind Spirit Grass, there was also a scarlet fruit.
This Wind Spirit Grass was about ten years old, and its medicinal value was very high. The scarlet fruit behind it was even more precious. It was a Red Nascent Fruit that had just ripened.
The Red Nascent Fruit was of the fire attribute. It was of great help to cultivators who cultivated fire attributed Cultivation Techniques. In many high ranked medicinal pills, the Red Nascent Fruit was an essential ingredient.
Xiao Chen did not expect to receive such a pleasant surprise the first time he used his divine sense. Immediately after, he remembered that in the outermost region of Seven Horn Mountain, this was the place with the densest Spiritual Energy. It was not strange for a few low ranked natural treasures to appear here. Xiao Chen felt relieved.
Unfortunately, he came in a hurry and did not bring a box to store the herbs. If he rashly picked the herbs, he would not be able to preserve them properly. The value of the Spirit Herbs would be greatly reduced. He could only wait until he left the mountain to pick them again.
Recollecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen started to recall some of the introductory spells in the Compendium of Cultivation. In this world, one could not build a foundation or form a core. It was better to focus on martial cultivation. Immortal techniques could only be used as support. He had to find some spells that were helpful in battle.
There were many introductory spells in the Compendium of Cultivation. However, many of them were not very useful in this world. Xiao Chen pondered for a long time in his memory. Finally, he decided on a few spells that he wanted to practice.
The Gravity Spell was a very introductory Movement Technique. It could use the gravity of the earth to allow a person to float in the air for a short period of time. It could not completely achieve the effect of flight, but it was a good choice when one's cultivation was low.
Xiao Chen placed the Gravity Spell at the top of his list. Aside from the above reasons, the Gravity Spell could be leveled up. When it was practiced to the Great Perfection, it would allow one to move as fast as the wind, traveling a thousand kilometers in an instant. Furthermore, the consumption of Essence was extremely small.
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen started to practice. He circulated the Essence in his body according to the methods in the Compendium of Cultivation. After a while, a rebound force came from the ground under his feet. It was as though he had entered a weightless state. His body suddenly floated up.
"Bang!"
This was the first time Xiao Chen had entered such a state. He was completely unprepared. The circulation of Essence in his body stopped for a moment and his body suddenly fell down.
"That really hurts …" Xiao Chen smiled as he patted the dust off his body. Although his first experiment had failed, he had found a way to do it. He should be able to do it after a few more tries. After all, it was only an introductory Movement Technique.
After Xiao Chen carefully tried a few more times, he finally found a technique. The principle behind the Gravity Spell was very simple. It was to allow one to enter a weightless state and then float up. As long as one got used to this weightless state, it would not be difficult.
After familiarizing himself with it, Xiao Chen seemed to have found something fun to do. He flew from tree to tree and from tree to tree. Although this was not the true Flight Technique, the feeling of his feet floating in the air, the feeling of being able to control his body freely, was very refreshing.
This short flight gave rise to an ambition in Xiao Chen's heart. If his cultivation realm increased in the future, how would it feel to be able to roam the world and fly like the wind?
Following that, Xiao Chen started practicing the remaining three Movement Techniques: Heavenly Lightning Shield, Lightning Descend, and Lightning Evasion. In the short term, Xiao Chen did not intend to practice the other Movement Techniques. He understood the principle of not biting off more than he could chew.
These three Spell Stones were very practical lightning-attributed Movement Techniques. Heavenly Lightning Shield, as the name suggested, condensed a shield of lightning to defend against the enemy's attacks. Lightning Descend, summoned lightning to attack the enemy. Lightning Evasion, used the power of lightning to quickly leave the battlefield.
Originally, if the Lightning Evasion was changed to the Earth Evasion, the effects would be much better. Unfortunately, Xiao Chen cultivated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation. It was too difficult to execute earth-attributed Movement Techniques, so he could only give up on it.
For the entire day, Xiao Chen practiced these Movement Techniques. The thick trees in the surroundings became the best targets. Lightning descended one after another, and the thick trees were immediately split in half. The continuous rumbling of thunder only stopped in the middle of the night.
Because the Essence in his body had been completely exhausted, Xiao Chen swallowed an Essence Nurturing Pill and sat down cross-legged once again, entering into a state of cultivation. After the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation reached the second layer, the rate at which he absorbed Spiritual Energy increased once again. The three white clouds around the Blue Dragon started to fill up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xiao Chen had always thought that the Essence in his body came from the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit. However, after he slowly familiarized himself with it, he realized that was not the case. The core of the Essence in his body came from the three white clouds around the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit.
These white clouds were not real white clouds, but a cloud-like substance formed from Essence. They floated beside the Blue Dragon, and there seemed to be a faint connection between them. With Xiao Chen's current cultivation realm, he could not understand what this connection was.
The only thing he was clear about was that when the fourth white cloud appeared, he would enter the realm of Medial Grade Martial Disciple. At that time, the Essence in his body would increase once again.
…
Early the next morning, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and stretched his body. He extended his Spiritual Sense and did not discover anyone within a radius of 500 meters.
Spiritual Sense was indeed useful. Not only could it differentiate Spirit Herbs, it could also detect the surroundings and detect hidden enemies. Its perception was much stronger than a regular cultivator's, Xiao Chen sighed in his heart.
"Gravity Spell!"
Xiao Chen muttered in his heart. After a while, Xiao Chen floated up. He was much more familiar with this compared to yesterday. Xiao Chen, who was in midair, looked at the ground below him and shouted once again.
"Heavenly Lightning Shield!"
A triangular Lightning Shield appeared, protecting Xiao Chen in midair. The Lightning Shield gave off a faint purple glow. This was a barrier formed from pure lightning-attributed energy. Xiao Chen estimated that it could deal with the full powered strike of a Martial Grand Master.
"Lightning Descend!"
Xiao Chen, who was in midair, pointed his finger gently and a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl descended from the sky. A thick tree on the ground was split in half with a 'boom'. Such might was comparable to a Profound Ranked Martial Technique. Furthermore, as it descended from the sky, the speed of the lightning made it hard for one to dodge.
"Lightning Evasion!"
After the last spell was executed, Xiao Chen's figure immediately disappeared from his original spot. Suddenly, there was the sound of thunder a hundred meters in front of him. A dazzling bolt of lightning struck down from the sky. Within the electric light, Xiao Chen's figure appeared in midair without any injuries.
After executing the four spells once, Xiao Chen slowly descended. He did not continue practicing, as he had more important things to do today.
Refining weapons! Refining a Spatial Ring that Xiao Chen had been eyeing for a long time …
