Cultivating by picking up attributes, I accumulate my strength!

Chapter 60: Chapter 54 Breaking Through! Picking up Spiritual Root!

Translator: 549690339 |

After Han Ye had settled his spirit fields, he returned to his room.

Within Pure Yang Peak, the outer disciples occupied the majority, all of them were cultivating among the mountains and waters, and a considerable number were cultivating their energy and tempering their bodies. Seeing everyone’s hard work, Han Ye also felt some pressure.

It’s like everyone is studying and reviewing, and only you are playing, which would bring about a sense of panic and guilt.

“After taking this bottle of Qi Nurturing Pills, I should be able to breakthrough to the Pool Realm,” Han Ye poured out a simple and unremarkable pill from a porcelain bottle in his hand. The pill was white and slightly yellow, emitting a medicinal fragrance, his face revealed a smile.

One bottle of ten pills, each serving as a substitute for a month of hard work.

“I’ll find out after taking it!”

With anticipation, Han Ye swallowed the elixir into his stomach and began to operate his True Qi, resolving the medicinal power.

Tiger Arm Fist, Supreme Ultimate Arts, Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang, Dragon and Tiger Breath, Profound Thunder Blade, they were all just means to’ him. However, if he wanted to be truly strong, he would still have to focus on cultivation.

It normally takes ordinary disciples ten to twenty years to break through to the Foundation Establishment. He definitely could not afford to spend that much time.

Provided that his foundation was stable, he also needed to keep improving. Each Qi Nurturing Pill was consumed by Han Ye every half an hour, quietly transforming into True Qi, awaiting the growth of the Heavenly Earthly Spiritual Qi. The Qi Nurturing Pills proved to be quite effective for him, a cultivator who had just started Qi cultivation not long ago.

In the span of two hours, he took four Qi Nurturing Pills, touched the bottleneck, but the unceasing True Qi flowed to his Dantian, depositing a sufficient amount of True Qi current, thereby causing the originally stable cup-shaped True Qi to start rushing against the bottleneck.

“Whoosh!”

After a long while, the sound of True Qi flowing came. A pool gathered from the True Qi was suddenly formed, moving without a wrinkle!

Han Ye suddenly opened his eyes, showing a delighted expression.

He spent a month’s time and used a bottle and a half of Qi Nurturing Pills, and finally broke through to the Pool Realm.

But Han Ye’s joy quickly subsided.

With his Triple Spirit Roots aptitude, the more he cultivates, the more difficult it becomes, and the more obvious the weaknesses are.

The senior sister said that the Cup Realm and Pool Realm belong to the early stages of Qi cultivation and are relatively simple. Once one reaches the River Realm and Sea Realm, the difficulty increases linearly and relies more on the power of the spiritual roots.

Spiritual roots have the greatest influence on cultivators during the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment phases, as it can determine a person’s cultivation limit. The limit of Triple Spirit Roots is at Foundation Establishment. Those who are impressive can break through the Foundation Establishment in more than ten years, but those with lesser talent may only spend their lives at the Qi Cultivation Realm.

This is undoubtedly something that Han Ye is very reluctant to see.

“Name”: Han Ye

“Cultivation”: Qi Cultivating Period (Pool Realm)

Owned Attributes”: Book-Smelling Intelligence (Blue), Wei Wu Legacy (Green), Great Wealth and High Rank (Green), Dragon-Tiger Physique (Blue), Unparalleled Fist Intent (Blue), Unshakable Dao Heart (Blue), Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star (Purple), Heaven-Sent Fortune (Purple), Sword Art Mastery (Purple), Fox Eye Perception (Purple), Sunflower Water Spirit Root (Purple)

He gazed at the four big words “Sunflower Water Spirit Root”, his eyes became focused, and then he resolutely said:

“No, I need to pick up more spiritual roots.”

Han Ye couldn’t sit still anymore, he pushed open the room door, just as a slim figure came in sight.

“Eh, Brother Han, when did you get back?”

Lin Shihuang walked out of the room and happened to meet Han Ye.

“Today.”

Does Brother Han have something to do?”

Han Ye was walking quickly, and Lin Shihuang had to speed up a little to catch up.

“I haven’t been cultivating for two days, and the senior sister just scolded me.

I’m going to find a good spot.”

The sky was getting dark, and disciples were coming and going all around Pure Yang Peak. Han Ye was choosing his targets.

He contemplated that what he needed most now was to pick Fire, Earth, and Metallic spiritual roots. Only if he picked enough of one of these attributes, could his aptitude transform.

But he soon discovered a problem. He didn’t know what spiritual roots other people had. Was he going to ask everyone one by one?

It was meaningless for him to pick Water and Wood spiritual roots, his aptitude would even become worse, turning into a Mixed Spirit Root.

Han Ye noticed that Lin Shihuang was still following him, and recalled that this fellow was a Dual Spiritual Root. So he asked:

Brother Lin, what spiritual root are you?”

Lin Shihuang was taken aback, then recalled, “I… I am a Water and Wood Dual

Spiritual Root. Why are you suddenly asking this?”

Han Ye heard that he was a Water and Wood Dual Spiritual Root and felt a twinge of disappointment.

Han Ye muttered something noncommittal, “Nothing, just asking casually. Didn’t the master say that the Sect’s Big Competition is very important? So, I’m researching the restraining relationships between spiritual roots, hoping to get a better ranking. If you know anyone who possesses Fire or Earth Spiritual Root, please be sure to let me know.”

“I see… Fire or Earth Spiritual Root? I think I actually do know someone.”

“Who?”

“Da Niu, don’t you remember? Da Niu is a Fire and Earth Dual Spiritual Root,” Lin Shihuang smiled.

“Oh right, Da Niu!”

Han Ye had an epiphany, he had almost forgotten.

Da Niu’s aptitude is quite good, even better than his!

“Great, then I’m going to find Da Niu.”

Han Ye turned around and intended to go find Wang Da Niu.

Seeing Han Ye’s haste, Lin Shihuang quickly asked, “Wait, will you come to the lesson sister is teaching us tonight?”

“Of course.”

Han Ye only left him a silhouette.

In the quiet mountain forest, the tweets of birds, the scent of flowers, and the stream never stop.

“Whoosh!”

A silver waterfall flowed downstream, continuously washing over the valley, and the mist covered the forest. The spiritual Qi was abundant.

In the water shadow where the waterfall and the stream meet, a burly giant stood tall, enduring the waterfall’s washing.

“Da Niu, Da Niu!”

Han Ye’s voice echoed in the forest.

Closer, he saw a figure under the waterfall, so he quickened his steps and shouted:

“Da Niu! Why are you cultivating here?”

Wang Da Niu heard someone calling him, stuck his head out, and revealed a strong upper body, full of sturdy muscles, he was the very image of a macho man.

“Brother Han, are you looking for me?”

“Senior Sister Shen said that to truly master the Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang, one must understand the imagery in the boxing technique, comprehend the intent of the fist, and to comprehend the intent of the fist’ one must feel everything around them. I want to practice the Water Gang first, so Senior Sister suggested I come and feel under the waterfall,” said Wang Da Niu.

“I see.”

Han Ye had not expected that Senior Sister Shen would have actually suggested such an idea to everyone.

It sounded pretty good.

Suddenly, he noticed that the Qi around Wang Da Niu had solidified a bit more and he asked in surprise, “Da Niu, it’s only been two days, and you’ve already reached the Cup Realm?”

“Yes, Senior Sister said that the effects of the Qi Nurturing Pill would be good for me. That day, I went with you to buy a bottle. After returning, I just took one pill and successfully broke through,” Wang Da Niu replied, scratching his moist hair with a grin.

Upon hearing this, Han Ye commented with a hint of awe, “Da Niu, why are you so good at taking advice?”

When Senior Sister suggested that he buy the Qi Nurturing Pill, he went and bought it. Senior Sister suggested he go practice under the waterfall, and he went.

Are there people who are really this good at taking advice?

Wang Da Niu nodded earnestly, “Senior Sister Shen is our senior, her words are certain to come from experience. She has been through it all before, so it’s definitely no mistake following her advice.”

When Han Ye heard this, it made perfect sense to him.

In contrast, when Senior Sister advised him to practice his boxing technique, he ran off to do tasks and earn Spirit Stones instead.

Now, when Senior Sister told him to stay on the peak and cultivate in order to compete for the position of Senior Brother, he would have to listen.

Even Da Niu understood this principle, and he had almost overlooked it.

It seemed like sometimes, it was best to heed advice.

“Da Niu, your Spirit Roots are Fire and Earth, right?”

Wang Da Niu nodded, “Yes, why do you ask?”

Just asking. To truly master the Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang, understanding the imagery is not enough, the prerequisite is solid practice of the technique. How much of the Five Elements Gang Fist Technique have you mastered?”

Wang Da Niu sheepishly grinned, “Not much, perhaps 10 or 20 percent.” “Perfect, I’ve mastered 50 percent. Let me teach you, just go all out against me,” Han Ye offered.

Alright! Wang Da Niu agreed without a second thought.

Han Ye, on the other hand, was running back to pick up attributes, not to teach boxing.

After all, in his own knowledge, how could he possibly truly teach someone else.

“Crack, crack, crack!”

Wang Da Niu warmed up, throwing one punch after another as he practiced the Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang, a faint tremor emanating from each punch, clearly highlighting the channels on his arm.

Da Niu’s vitality wasn’t weak. While he was at Liu Manor, he had taken quite a few Qi and blood fortifying substances, providing him with a solid foundation.

His punches whistled through the air, each one was perfectly received by Han Ye’s calm defense.

‘Pick up attribute: Strength of a bull+1’

‘Pick up attribute: Strength of a bull+r

Han Ye watched as the attributes dropped, but there was no delight on his face because he noticed that no Spirit Roots had dropped.

“Da Niu, use your Spirit Root and True Qi, otherwise it won’t have any effect.”

“But, I’m afraid…”

“It’s fine, I’ve already broken through to the Qi Pool Realm, you can trust me.”

“Okay!”

“Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang.”

Wang Da Niu’s right arm was flooded with vitality, a powerful True Qi converged in his right palm, his broad palm radiating a burning temperature.

“Boom!”

His powerful punch resonated with brilliance as it collided with the air, hurtling towards Han Ye.

Han Ye didn’t panic and hastily concentrated his True Qi at his knuckles, also throwing a punch.

“Bang!”

The moment the two fists collided, it was as if two heavy boulders had clashed, the deafening explosion echoing throughout the creek and sending waves splashing everywhere.

It was hard to imagine that such a commotion had erupted from the fists of two human bodies.

Wang Da Niu retreated several steps in quick succession, his feet unable to find purchase on the uneven cobblestones at the bottom of the river. His entire arm felt numb and sore.

He couldn’t help but be stunned. Did Brother Han really have such strength?

How come he remembered that when they were arm wrestling at the inn, the other party wasn’t as strong as him? Could it be due to the breakthrough in the realm?

Han Ye was also somewhat surprised. His punch, though not with his full strength, contained at least 70% of it. Anyone in the Cup Realm would be knocked down with one punch, but Da Niu just retreated a few steps.

‘Pick up attribute: Fire and Earth Spirit Root+r

As Han Ye had expected, Wang Da Niu’s body did drop an attribute and lay at the bottom of the river. He absorbed it and checked.

‘Fire and Earth Spirit Roots (blue): Dual Spirit Roots, good talent, those who excel can reach Golden Core, those who are inferior can maintain Foundation Establishment.’

“Let’s go again!”

Wang Da Niu was still a bit unconvinced and wanted to challenge again, and Han Ye was naturally willing.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

‘Pick up attribute: Fire and Earth Spirit Root+1’

‘Pick up attribute: Fire and Earth Spirit Root+r

Gradually, Han Ye felt a burning sensation in his Dantian.

He became increasingly sensitive to the Spiritual Qi around him, as if they were naturally attracted to him.

It really works!

Han Ye was immediately overjoyed.
