I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 107: A Wise Choice (3/10)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Making a choice between skills and talents was a problem that every adult had to face.

After reaching the limits of their talents, adults could only pursue efficiency and refinement!

Therefore, after simple consideration, Lu Yuan also chose the options of advancement for the Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques.

[Ding! Your skill, Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques, has completed its advancement. Advanced skill obtained: Divine Manipulation Technique.]

[Skill: Divine Manipulation Technique]

[Effect: Use spiritual sense to control objects. This skill can increase the precision of the cultivator’s spiritual sense.]

Just as Lu Yuan was still observing the effects of Divine Manipulation Technique, two system notifications appeared in his mind.

[Ding! Since the host has mastered the Divine Manipulation Technique, it is of significant help to the skill, One Qi Sword Control Technique. One Qi Sword Control Technique Level +1]

[Level 2. One Qi Sword Control Technique: 0/20000]

[Ding! Since the host has mastered the Divine Manipulation Technique, it is of significant help to the skill, Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique. Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique Level +1]

[Level 3. Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique: 2541/30000]

Damn, he learnt a new skill, and it actually affected his other skills!

Lu Yuan was astonished when he saw that two of his advanced skills had increased by a level each without him doing anything.

However, Lu Yuan quickly understood the reason after his initial shock.

The precision of a cultivator’s Item Manipulation depended on the degree of control they had over their spiritual energy.

Regardless of what skill or divine ability it was, all of them tested the cultivator’s control over their spiritual energy.

Therefore, Item Manipulation was actually a basic skill that cultivators had to master.

If one was not proficient in Item Manipulation, they wouldn’t be able to cultivate many divine abilities.

The Divine Manipulation Technique was already the second advancement of Item Manipulation.

This second advancement skill was approaching the tier of a way.

This also meant that Lu Yuan had already reached a considerable level of proficiency in Item Manipulation.

Hence, many of his skills that required the support of the Item Manipulation naturally improved without him doing anything.

Lu Yuan welcomed this kind of free lunch with open arms.

After obtaining the One Qi Sword Control Technique and the Divine Manipulation Technique, Lu Yuan’s subsequent progress would undoubtedly slow greatly.

After all, every time a skill advanced, the proficiency required to further advance it would increase by a huge margin.

It was not easy to further advance a skill that had advanced many times.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan now had the perfect tool, the Fire Cicada Clone.

It could help him cultivate his skills day and night.

Actually, Lu Yuan wasn’t the first to use his clone to grind his skills.

There was once a person who cultivated the Fire Cicada Nine Transformations and did the same thing as Lu Yuan.

However, the other party still gave up in the end.

This was because after the clone returned to the main body, it would transmit a portion of the damage and fatigue it accumulated back to the main body.

The soul of an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator was not strong to begin with.

Once the impact on the divine soul was too great, although it would not cause serious injuries to the main body, the cultivator would still feel dizzy for a whole day and have a weak soul. There was no workaround for these effects.

However, Lu Yuan did not have such side effects.

This was because the strength of his divine soul far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators.

Now, even the strength of his physical body had surpassed that of an ordinary cultivator.

He had maximum fatigue resistance!

Lu Yuan estimated that with the strength of his current soul, he could even resist the fatigue effect caused by two clones at the same time.

Unfortunately, he only had one clone from the Fire Cicada Nine Transformations.

If it was possible, he could not wait to have a few more clones to help him practice his skills.

However, he would not spend a lot of effort to find cultivation techniques or divine abilities that would enable him to have more clones just to cultivate.

After all, a person’s energy was limited. Even a celestial cultivator like him could not do too many things at the same time.

Lu Yuan was very aware to not bite off more than he could chew.

Otherwise, there might be a situation where he couldn’t beat others even if he used cheats.

If such a situation really happened, it would be awkward!

After confirming what he was going to do next, Lu Yuan also formulated his next five-year plan.

[Five-Year Plan 4.0]

[1. Achieve Foundation Establishment of the Yin spiritual root through the way of the heavens.]

(2. Master at least one more second advancement skill.]

[3. Train my body and prepare to make a deal with Demoness Meng.]

The first two plans were Lu Yuan’s very conventional cultivation plans.

Lu Yuan made his third plan after careful consideration.

Although his strength had increased, Demoness Meng Ruyan’s strength was also increasing rapidly.

So far, Lu Yuan had yet to take her down when facing her head on.

This made the self-proclaimed macho man Lu Yuan feel very embarrassed.

If he couldn’t even subdue a mere demoness, how could he talk about celestial cultivation and pursuing the ladies above the nine heavens!

Therefore, Lu Yuan decided to train his body well over the next five years.

He did not intend to train his body to a very strong state.

At the very least, he had to reach the level of the two Innate Stage martial artists, Iron-ox and Lion-ape.

After all, his current physical body was only built up using Blood Qi Pills.

Although he had a body full of blood qi, it had not been tempered through battles.

Such a body was at most a silver head spear, good looking but useless.

He had to polish his body properly before he could unleash its potential!

In the following days, Lu Yuan’s main body cultivated the Black Yin Devil Technique, and condensed the acquired Yin Spiritual Root.

At the same time, he used the martial arts he had learned from Innate Stage martial artists like the Lion-ape and Iron-ox to hone his body.

Although these martial arts were not very refined, they were still effective when cultivated.

Lu Yuan naturally did not stop refining pills.

After all, although the marrow-cleansing pills were not very useful to him now, things like the recovery pills that helped recover spiritual energy and the blood replenishing pills that helped recover from injuries were things that Lu Yuan needed more.

Even if he did not use it himself, he could sell it to the guards of Moon Mountain Pass and the devil-slaying practitioners he brought with him.

As a result, Lu Yuan’s life fell into a meaningful routine..
