I Cultivate Longevity in the Cultivation Realm
Chapter 165 - 106: Easy to Expand, Hard to Shrink (Part 3)
Three times back and forth.
This was when he truly rested and took out the Taiyi Atlas from his Storage Bag, investing his Spiritual Power into it.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths...
After ten breaths.
Zhou Changwang vaguely sensed the faint outline of the atlas.
But before he could probe further, he felt his consciousness thoroughly scattered and then fell into a deep sleep.
The next day upon waking.
He carefully recalled, still unable to determine what that faint outline was.
With a mind to continue probing.
But as he thought about falling asleep for several hours, and that enhancing Spiritual Power is not an overnight affair, with his current level of Spiritual Power, it might take him a long time to fully understand.
Thus, he abandoned the attempt.
Scratch~scratch~
Just at this moment, he suddenly heard a faint sound.
His gaze quickly shifted, landing on the small golden egg.
The eggshell had been tapped.
"Is the Spirit Beast inside about to hatch?"
Zhou Changwang became somewhat excited at once.
He hurriedly got up and walked to the side of the small golden egg.
The creature inside continued to scratch at the eggshell, chewing and gnawing... but the eggshell seemed rather thick, and it could not break through for a long time.
Zhou Changwang watched, tempted to give it a hand. Unexpectedly, the creature suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, he had to use a Calming Technique.
Then he sensed joy mixed with hunger and fatigue from the creature.
Out of necessity, Zhou Changwang took out several Lower-Grade Spirit Stones and placed them aside, realizing that it might still be some time before the creature could break the shell, and then left.
"The Spirit Eye Technique has also reached Great Success.
This Magic, while not difficult to cultivate, must be paired with sufficient Eye Power.
Without enough Eye Power, even a Great Success level of Spirit Eye Technique cannot last long."
Zhou Changwang dripped a small amount of Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid into his eyes, relieving the fatigue.
The bottle of Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid he held was already his sixth consumption, marking the last bottle.
Once this bottle is used up, if he wishes to accelerate the cultivation speed of Spirit Eye Technique, he would have to purchase more.
"One bottle of Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid costs fifty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.
And in the Shuiyun Pavilion, there’s a Spiritual Water called Spiritual Eye Golden Liquid, an advanced version of Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid with better effects. It’s said to frequently enhance the eyes, transforming them into Spirit Eyes.
One bottle requires three hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones."
Zhou Changwang felt that the Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid was becoming less effective at improving his eyes, hinting at the thought of purchasing Spiritual Eye Golden Liquid to try.
However, he was ultimately deterred by its price.
Three hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones remained too luxurious for someone still saving to purchase a Cultivation Technique.
"I’ll wait until I’ve changed the Cultivation Technique.
For now, just stick to farming." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Zhou Changwang rose again, roaming the Spirit Field, casting Magic.
After completing his routine gestures, he sat at a familiar spot in the pavilion, alternating between reading and resting.
Occasionally feeling tired, he stood beside, watching the fish swimming in the pond.
The pond indeed hosted fish, though they were ordinary ones, yet quite beautiful in appearance, resembling koi, with tails swaying gracefully.
"It’s a pity Spirit Fish can’t survive in shallow waters.
Although this pond’s water flows from mountain crevices, it’s not a Spiritual Spring, posing a risk of regression for Spirit Fish.
Only in the Jade Lake area, with vast surfaces and abundant resources, could Spiritual Objects thrive, allowing Spirit Fish to live and breed."
Zhou Changwang muttered before retracting his gaze and retrieving a Jade Scroll from his Storage Bag for examination.
The Jade Scroll was obtained from an Array Master, detailing an Array technique.
Small Spirit Gathering Array!
An Array capable of gathering surrounding Spiritual Qi, merging it to enhance Spiritual Qi concentration in a designated area.
Setting up this Array proved far more challenging than Fog Array or Sound Insulation Array, even surpassing the Four Seasons Array.
Therefore, although Zhou Changwang aspired to establish the Array, he hadn’t succeeded.
"Yet, after much study and familiarization, I’ve memorized and grasped its various changes.
What’s left is only practice."
Thinking this, Zhou Changwang quickly moved into action.
Previously, he had prepared Array Flags for deploying this Array.
Since it was merely a trial, he planned to set the Array Hub, the Array’s center, at the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, a Second-Grade Low-Tier Spirit Plant.
Then, using Spirit Eye Technique, he surveyed the terrain and Spirit Vein paths around this Spirit Tea Tree, leveraging terrain and Spirit Vein forces to harmonize with Heaven and Earth, forming an Array capable of gathering Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Each Array Flag was placed after lengthy observation and ensuring the landscape shifts induced by his Array Flag were under control before placing it.
The process was gradual and demanding.
He expended considerable effort and Spiritual Power.
Especially for the final Array Flag, he spent at least one hour observing and calculating.
At last, he firmly embedded the final Array Flag into the Spirit Vein.
Finally, he used a Spell Technique to activate the Array with an Array Disc.
