Chapter 117 Rebuilding After Dispersing Power! One Reincarnation in 9 Years!
After careful consideration.
Lin Chuan then carved out a quiet room in the center of his cave.
This quiet room is not large.
However, its location is excellent, being the core area with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire cave.
He reinforced the room with layers of restrictions to ensure its safety before taking out the spatial jade token from his pocket.
A thought crossed my mind.
A clear spring gushed out from the jade tablet and landed steadily in the specially carved recess in the center of the quiet room—the very spring of spiritual light.
The moment the spring water fell into the depression, it seemed to sense the existence of the earth's veins and began to establish a connection with the spiritual veins below.
Extremely pure spiritual energy surged from the spring, quickly filling the entire quiet room and even spreading outwards through the restrictions.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath and felt his pores open up, feeling incredibly refreshed.
With the blessing of the Spirit Eye Spring, the concentration of spiritual energy in this cave has reached a new level.
Even on the fiftieth floor of the Holy Mountain, in areas where only high-ranking members of the Star Palace can reside, the concentration of spiritual energy is generally inferior to that of this place.
"good!"
Lin Chuan nodded in satisfaction, sat down cross-legged, and began his meditation.
Even though he was in Tianxing City, the safest city in the Chaotic Star Sea where private fights were strictly prohibited, he still maintained the habit of consulting the oracle every day to seek good fortune and avoid disaster.
The next morning, the golden light appeared as expected.
[Today’s hexagram: Zhongji]
[The divination reads: Today, you will go to the Tianxing City market to sell your surplus goods. Trade in batches, keep a low profile, and you will not attract anyone's attention or investigation.]
"very good."
Lin Chuan immediately got up, left the cave, and headed to the first level of the Holy Mountain.
The transformed soul remained in the cave to continue cultivating the "Blood Refining Divine Light".
……
The first level of the sacred mountain is a market town, half of which is incredibly large.
The area is lined with shops, bustling with people, and filled with all sorts of cultivators, creating a lively and vibrant atmosphere.
There were independent monks selling their wares at stalls, and shop assistants dressed in uniform.
There were also Foundation Establishment cultivators with profound auras who remained silent, and even occasionally, the aura of a Core Formation expert would appear.
Lin Chuan did not rush to make a move, but instead took a stroll around the market to familiarize himself with the environment.
He then found a large-scale shop selling Buddhist artifacts called "Tianbingge" and went inside.
A shopkeeper, a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages, greeted them with a broad smile.
"What do you need, fellow Daoist? Our shop has a full range of magical artifacts at reasonable prices..."
"I want to sell a batch of Buddhist artifacts."
Lin Chuan interrupted him, took out more than a dozen good-quality magical artifacts from his storage bag, and placed them on the counter.
These magical artifacts were all seized by him on the battlefield of Jinguyuan.
A faint trace of demonic energy still lingered on it. But in the Chaotic Star Sea, who would care about that?
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up. After inspecting each item, he quoted a reasonably fair price. Lin Chuan didn't haggle and nodded, agreeing to the deal.
After leaving the Heavenly Soldiers Pavilion, he went to another shop—this time selling talismans.
Then came the third shop, which sold elixirs.
The fourth company sells miscellaneous materials.
……
Following the same method, for several days in a row, Lin Chuan sold the hundreds of magical artifacts, talismans, pills, and materials he had accumulated to shops of all sizes in the market.
Each transaction was small, only three to five or ten items, and inconspicuous.
Several days later, he finally cleared out all the useless supplies he had.
Adding the spirit stones he had accumulated before, Lin Chuan now had a total of 180,000 spirit stones in his storage bag!
180,000 spirit stones!
What does this mean?
An ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator's entire fortune is only a few thousand spirit stones.
Even those established Foundation Establishment peak cultivators, Chapter Update Notice: Chapter 117 Dispersed Cultivation and Rebuilding! A Nine-Year Cycle!, Reading Address. Having 10,000 spirit stones is already considered wealthy.
The 180,000 spirit stones already exceeded the entire wealth of many rogue Core Formation cultivators!
More importantly, the daily volume of goods traded in Tianxing City Market is enormous.
Lin Chuan's phased selling was like a drop of water into the ocean, completely escaping anyone's notice.
……
Next, Lin Chuan started spending money.
He first went to a large shop that specializes in selling elixirs and medicinal herbs—Wandan Pavilion.
The shop had an impressive facade, a three-story building, and elegant decorations. As Lin Chuan stepped into the shop, a shop assistant in a blue dress immediately came to greet him.
"I need the prescription."
Lin Chuan cut to the chase, "What kinds of pill formulas do you sell here?"
The shop assistant paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you've come at the right time. Our shop has a complete range of pill formulas, from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment stages, and we even have a few that can assist in Core Formation. Which one would you like, fellow Daoist?"
Lin Chuan nodded.
In Tiannan, high-level pill formulas are considered closely guarded secrets by major sects and forces, rarely leaking out.
If he were to ask such a question in the Yue Kingdom, he would likely make a fool of himself and might even arouse suspicion and hostility.
However, he was familiar with the original work and knew that the situation in the Chaotic Star Sea was completely different.
The commercial atmosphere here is strong, and the flow of cultivation resources is far freer than in Tiannan.
Many pill formulas, weapon-refining diagrams, and formation illustrations that are considered secret in Tiannan can be purchased from various merchant alliances or shops in the Chaotic Star Sea, provided one is willing to spend spirit stones.
This is because the power structure in the Chaotic Star Sea is relatively fragmented, and the ways to acquire marine resources are more diverse, making it more difficult to monopolize them.
At the recommendation of the shop assistant, Lin Chuan selected four or five prescriptions.
Among them are basic pill formulas suitable for Qi Refining stage disciples, as well as pill formulas suitable for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators to improve their magical power.
The total cost was only two thousand spirit stones.
Unlike the pill formulas in the Tiannan region, which mostly use spiritual herbs and medicines, the main ingredient in these pill formulas is none other than the inner core of demonic beasts.
This is also a distinctive feature of the Chaotic Star Sea Pill System—it is extremely rich in demon beast resources, and using demon cores as medicine is the mainstream method for refining high-level pills.
In addition to the formula, Lin Chuan also purchased a batch of finished pills—for improving his magical power—just in case.
This shopping spree cost 60,000 spirit stones.
After leaving Wan Dan Pavilion, Lin Chuan went to another large materials store and bought a large quantity of medicinal materials needed for alchemy.
Various auxiliary herbs, medicinal guides, and other ingredients needed for refining elixirs.
It cost tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Among them, the most expensive are several level-five demon cores.
A level 5 demon core, equivalent to the inner core of a demon beast in the early stage of Core Formation, is priced between 900 and 1600 spirit stones in the Chaotic Star Sea.
If this treasure were in the Yue Kingdom, it would probably be worth three or four times more, and it would be priceless and unavailable.
Lin Chuan bought dozens of them in one go, intending to use them for alchemy.
……
Upon returning to his cave, Lin Chuan began refining pills.
Lin Chuan wasn't particularly skilled in alchemy, but his powerful spiritual sense gave him an innate advantage in learning anything.
Controlling flames and condensing elixirs both require extremely powerful divine sense.
After you have studied and become familiar with the elixir formula.
One by one, the pills took shape in his alchemy furnace, were placed into jade bottles, labeled, and carefully stored.
Day after day, about a year passed quietly in the process of alchemy and cultivation.
A year later, Lin Chuan estimated that he had enough pills to complete his first stage of cultivation.
So he began to disperse his energy.
One must not rush the dissipation of energy, otherwise it will damage the foundation.
Following the methods of the "Three Revolutions Rebuilding Technique," Lin Chuan gradually dispersed and rebuilt the magical power within his body.
After a full two weeks, his cultivation level dropped from the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage to the early Foundation Establishment stage.
Let's start from scratch.
