Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 11: Change

Time passed slowly.

As the pill was continuously absorbed and refined, Chen Lin felt that his stagnant cultivation had regained its vitality, and the bottleneck that had seemed like an insurmountable obstacle had finally loosened.

Seeing this, he hastened to accelerate his cultivation method, constantly impacting the bottleneck.

Suddenly, Chen Lin's body trembled, and it seemed like a "pop" sound came from within him.

He felt that the accumulated spiritual power had found an outlet, bursting out from the broken bottleneck, and a sense of freedom and joy surged forth.

Qi Refining third stage, achieved!

Feeling the spiritual power within him, which was nearly twice as abundant as before, Chen Lin couldn't believe it.

The bottleneck that had plagued the original host for nearly twenty years had been broken through just like that?

Was it due to the pill, or had his transmigration into this body brought about some changes, making it no longer so useless?

No matter what, as long as he had broken through, he was closer to his goal of reaching the middle stage of Qi Refining.

Excited, Chen Lin immediately took out the materials for crafting talismans and began to create a Fireball talisman.

After a few strokes of his brush, the talisman paper suddenly burst into flames, turning into a pile of ashes.

He had failed.

But Chen Lin didn't feel discouraged, instead, he revealed a satisfied smile.

As he had expected, after entering the Qi Refining third stage, his spiritual power had become even more abundant and refined, making it effortless to craft Fireball talismans.

This meant that the time it took to create talismans would be greatly shortened, and he could craft more talismans every day.

Although he had refined the Initial Yuan Pill, he didn't want anyone to know about it.

A person who had never touched alchemy before suddenly being able to refine pills would be abnormal, and even a fool would know that something was off. If the news leaked out, he would definitely be targeted, and his fate would be unimaginable.

So, he still had to rely on his old profession of crafting talismans to earn spirit stones.

After a moment of distraction, Chen Lin continued to craft talismans.

After a long time, a bottle of spiritual ink was used up.

He had obtained two completed Fireball talismans.

"Ha ha ha."

Looking at the two talismans with flame patterns, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

This was truly a double blessing.

Not only had his cultivation broken through, but his ability to craft Fireball talismans had also broken through.

With the ability to Hit Every Ten Times, he could succeed twice every ten attempts!

This was much more profitable than crafting Strength Boosting talismans, and as his proficiency increased, his success rate would also rise.

If his success rate could reach 30% or even 40%…

Just thinking about it made Chen Lin's body tremble, but he quickly calmed down.

Distant water couldn't quench his immediate thirst, and even if his talisman-crafting skills broke through, it wouldn't solve his current urgent needs.

The most important thing right now was to raise his cultivation to the middle stage of Qi Refining and leave this place as soon as possible.

Next, Chen Lin began to cultivate with all his might.

He didn't know if it was the effect of the Initial Yuan Pill or if his transmigration had changed the constitution of this body, but with the help of the pill, his cultivation was progressing rapidly.

Just as Chen Lin was immersed in the joy of his rapid cultivation, a terrifying event suddenly occurred.

That night, when the copper bell in the corner rang, he went to the window as usual to observe the strange scene outside.

However, this time, a new change appeared.

As countless red threads shot up into the sky, a huge, blurry shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.

As soon as the shadow appeared, a sense of danger that made his hair stand on end enveloped him.

Before he could react, a red thread descended from the sky and connected to his body.

Immediately afterwards, he felt that something seemed to be flowing along the red line in his body.

No matter how he moved or what methods he used, he could not get rid of this red thread.

Suddenly, Chen Lin's body emitted a scarlet red light, and his whole temperament also changed drastically, becoming extremely evil.

At the same time, his face also showed an exaggerated and arrogant attitude.

An hour later, the blurry shadow in the sky slowly dissipated, and the countless red threads also disappeared.

Chen Lin's body also returned to normal.

"What a beautiful moon tonight!"

Looking at the dark night sky, Chen Lin sighed inexplicably, then returned to bed and fell asleep.

Early morning.

Chen Lin felt that his spirit was exceptionally clear today.

It wasn't just because of his cultivation breakthrough, but also because of an inexplicable change.

He opened the door and went to the courtyard, where he found that the snow had stopped.

The entire city was covered in a silver blanket, and the wavy smoke created a picturesque scene.

"This is indeed the world of cultivators, this feeling is just different!"

Chen Lin took a deep breath of the spiritual energy in the air, feeling extremely satisfied with his transmigration.

"Now that I've reached Qi Refining third stage, with my Golden Finger, Foundation Establishment won't be a problem. I'll marry ten or eight female cultivators, and I'll be the founder of the sixth major family in this city!"

"No, I can't be satisfied with just Foundation Establishment. As a transmigrator, I should have even greater ambitions. At least, I should be able to unify Kaiyuan City with a Golden Core!"

Chen Lin was indulging in his own fantasies when the door opposite him suddenly opened.

The yellow-faced female cultivator walked out.

Seeing her, Chen Lin immediately gave a cold, sidelong glance and said, "Old woman, you don't even greet me when you see me. I think you're not interested in getting along!"Reêad latest 𝒏ov𝒆ls at n𝒐𝒐v/e/l/bi𝒏(.)com

The female cultivator's face turned angry, but she quickly revealed a shocked expression.

"You, you've actually broken through!"

The female cultivator's attitude made Chen Lin feel very pleased, and he said calmly, "Is it difficult for me to break through to Qi Refining third stage?"

The female cultivator pursed her lips, revealing an envious expression.

"How did you do it? Did you buy a pill? Can you introduce me to the method?"

Since they lived in the same courtyard, everyone knew each other's situations clearly. Chen Lin being stuck at Qi Refining second stage for nearly twenty years was no secret, so the female cultivator didn't believe that he had broken through normally.

The female cultivator's eyes were filled with expectation.

She had also been stuck at the peak of Qi Refining third stage for many years, and if she could buy a pill to enhance her cultivation, she would be able to break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining, which would be a completely different world!

“How is that possible? How can I buy any pills?"

Chen Lin waved his hands repeatedly.

The matter of the pill must be kept absolutely confidential, otherwise, it would be a big trouble.

But before the other party could speak, he sneered coldly and said, "A mere pill, do I need to buy it? I can make it myself…"

As he said this, Chen Lin's tone suddenly stopped, and he fell into a daze.

"What do you mean by yourself? Chen Lin, we are all old neighbors. Don't keep good things to yourself. If you want to benefit, I'll serve you well."

The female cultivator was anxious.

But Chen Lin was still in a daze.

Then, without saying a word, he turned around and left the courtyard.

"You old rascal, what's so great about breaking through the third stage of Qi Refining? You're so arrogant, just wait until I break through the middle stage of Qi Refining, and I'll chop you up and make soup!"

The female cultivator's anger was like thunder, her curses growing louder and louder.

But Chen Lin seemed to not hear her, only lowering his head and walking away.

As he walked, he furrowed his brow.

He sensed that something was wrong with himself.

In the past, he would never have been so showy, not only boasting about his cultivation breakthrough but also almost revealing his own pill medicine production, which was completely out of character for his cautious and low-key style.

Moreover, he discovered that he seemed to have forgotten some things.

But what exactly he had forgotten, he couldn't recall.

"Never mind, don't think about it too much. It's better to just keep a low profile and quietly cultivate, that's the best way."

After thinking for a long time without figuring out what was wrong, he decided not to think about it anymore and headed straight to the market.

After buying a large batch of materials, he hurried back.
