Dual Cultivation Is Still Cultivation

"Oh?"

Lu Changzhi smiled slightly and said:

"Where is the terror?"

Cang Wenyu took a deep breath, his face showing some uncertainty:

"Ordinary refining requires circulation through the meridians, supplemented by cultivation techniques, before it can be transformed and used by oneself, but this thing..."

Cang Wenyu glanced down and said:

"It feels as if it originated from within itself."

After a pause, Cang Wenyu sighed:

"I never imagined that such a wondrous thing existed in this world."

Lu Changzhi smiled upon hearing this.

The sect leader's statement is more accurate.

Indeed, this is true. This cultivation crystal is produced by the system and has its own strengths. The most important of these is that it does not require refining and adapts to the user. In other words, as Cang Wenyu said, it is as if the user is refining itself.

It felt like transferring something from one hand to the other.

"So, how much does the sect leader think that using this spiritual energy crystal can increase cultivation speed compared to normal?"

Lu Changzhi asked.

He didn't have much of a concept of cultivation speed, since cultivation was mostly done by leaving the game running.

Cang Wenyu pondered for a moment, then said:

"At least ten times, and much more if not deliberately refined."

At least ten times, which is an extremely terrifying thing for ordinary cultivators.

In the path of cultivation, talent determines the upper limit, but reaching that limit is inherently a difficult and lengthy process.

There are rarely any shortcuts to improving one's cultivation level.

Yet this tiny crystal can do just that.

Lu Changzhi nodded, raised his hand, took out a storage ring containing a crystal, and handed it to Cang Wenyu, saying:

"These will be distributed to the peak masters and patriarchs of each peak in the sect for now. More will be distributed in a while, so there's no need to hoard them. The priority is to help the elders and disciples of the sect improve their cultivation as quickly as possible."

Cang Wenyu took the storage ring, examined it, and his expression changed drastically.

Changzhi makes a move, it is always astonishing.

Such a wondrous object, yet it still manages to produce so many.

"Changzhi, have you left anything for yourself? Don't just think about the sect." Cang Wenyu said.

Lu Changzhi smiled slightly:

"Sect Leader, please rest assured."

Xue Lang must be putting in a lot of effort to lure Blood Devil over, as cultivation light is continuously being generated in Blood Devil Paradise.

There's no need to worry about running out in the short term.

Upon hearing this, Cang Wenyu said nothing more, but after a moment of silence, his expression suddenly became serious, and he asked:

"Changzhi, regarding the position of sect leader, I wonder if you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Changzhi decisively interrupted him:

"No, let's just forget about it."

"It's fine as it is now."

The title of sect leader was just a name; he had absolutely no interest in it.

As he spoke, a flash of light appeared in Lu Changzhi's hand, and he lifted up a large stack of cultivation manuals.

At the very top, it was clearly written, "Wide-Opening and Wide-Closing Dual Cultivation Technique".

"Changzhi, what's this?" Cang Wenyu looked over, his expression shifting.

Lu Changzhi smiled:

"Yes."

Cang Wenyu's lips moved, as if he was somewhat tempted, but he said:

"Changzhi, why don't you leave it here for now?"

"Huh?" Lu Changzhi was somewhat surprised.

"Is the sect leader no longer interested in this matter?"

"Cough cough."

Cang Wenyu coughed lightly, glanced at the storage ring containing the cultivation crystal, and said:

"I plan to go into seclusion for a while."

"Seclusion?" Lu Changzhi blinked:

"Wouldn't that be perfect?"

Cang Wenyu's expression froze, and he emphasized:

"This is a proper seclusion."

"Understood." Lu Changzhi smiled knowingly.

"Looks like he was always the unserious type before."

Although Cang Wenyu's face was concealed, a hint of red still showed through:

"What are you talking about? Even practicing together is still practicing."

Lu Changzhi laughed heartily.

He had a rough guess.

Perhaps the sect leader is a studious person, and he was afraid that if he gave him the unusual and rare techniques that he had specially found, he would not be able to suppress his desire to learn and would change the nature of his seclusion.

After a brief conversation, Cang Wenyu left Hidden Origin Peak with his storage ring crammed full.

"This feeling..."

In the void, Cang Wenyu looked at the location of Hidden Origin Peak with a lingering gaze.

There was a time when Grandma was still alive, and whenever I visited her, she would be stuffed until she was round and full, for fear that she would go hungry.

Now that he has come to Hidden Origin Peak, Changzhi is also worried that the sect will become poor.

"There's nothing particularly unique about it."

I spent some time looking at the unpacking report presented by the system.

Perhaps due to their extensive experience, once the rewards and items reached the Saint level or even the Saint King level, the Saint Rank seemed rather ordinary.

"Go check on the unlucky guy."

With a soft whisper, Lu Changzhi entered the Soul-Severing Array Disk, not appearing directly, but secretly observing Qi Zhan.

It had been a long time since they last saw each other, even before the secret realm opened.

Although you can obtain Exclusive Luck Points through Qi Zhan, and then exchange them for exclusive opportunities.

But just as opening too many packages can make you numb, Qi Zhan will also become numb if he gets angry too much.

You might not get your Exclusive Luck Points even if you try once or twice.

The input and output were disproportionate, so it was temporarily set aside. In addition, due to the trip to the secret realm, they have not gone to find the other party again until now.

Inside the space within the Soul-Severing Needle.

Qi Zhan seemed to sense something and looked around.

"Didn't they come?"

Seeing that no one came in, Qi Zhan gently shook his head, but then suddenly smiled and said:

"Could this kid have gotten into some kind of accident and died?!"

They used to search for me so diligently, but now, so much time has passed, and I can't even find a trace of them.

Thinking of that kid, even though he had been through a lot, Qi Zhan still couldn't calm down.

That precious Transcendent Fruit, he spent so many years just to see it possibly ripen, and that kid took it and ate it.

What's even more infuriating is that that kid actually found other ripe Transcendent Fruit!

"No, I can't think about that kid anymore."

Qi Zhan shook his head repeatedly, looking around:

"If I'm really going to die, I hope it's not in a remote place where there are no outsiders. Who knows how long it will be before this place is destroyed? I'm just afraid..."

It's a lie to say I don't want to go out.

He believed he was a person with great fortune, and that as long as he could rebuild his physical body, he would surely have a bright future!

But if we can't get out and are stuck here until we die, that would be a real pain.

Suddenly, the surroundings began to tremble.

The tremors grew stronger and stronger, eventually turning into a massive tremor, and then, to Qi Zhan's astonishment, the surroundings collapsed with a deafening roar.

"This?"

Qi Zhan's soul trembled as he gazed at this scene, and he was overjoyed.

What does it mean for your wishes to come true?

I was just giving a vivid performance, and as I was thinking that, the surroundings actually started to collapse!

However, Qi Zhan quickly became wary.

"No, this might be a trap set by that kid."

That kid has so many infuriating tricks up his sleeve; who knows what kind of trouble he's up to this time.

Qi Zhan cautiously looked around.

This is inside a tomb.

The surrounding light was rather dim. Looking ahead, not far away, a figure sat cross-legged on a platform, wearing an old robe, like an old monk in meditation. However, it was covered in thick dust and had been dead for a long time.

Qi Zhan looked around for a moment, then seemed to suddenly discover something, and let out a simple exclamation:

"What the hell?!"
