Chapter 11
Chapter 11
At night, after a day of normal cultivation, Lu Yuan asked for a private room from a senior brother of the Pharmacist Valley to try and cultivate the Green Flame Technique.
However, what was strange was that Lu Yuan did not start cultivating immediately after entering the room. Instead, he sat on the ground and fell into a daze.
In truth, he wasn’t in a daze. He was looking at the system interface.
[Skill: Green Flame Technique]
[Cultivation Requirement 1: Fire and wood spiritual root, each with an aptitude not lower than 30 points (satisfied)]
[Cultivation Requirement 2: Green flame pill (satisfied)]
[Luck Value: 0]
[Cultivation Success Rate: 50%]
After Lu Yuan exchanged for the Green Flame Technique, a skill book named the Green Flame Technique had thus appeared on the system’s skill interface.
Through this skill book, Lu Yuan could clearly see the success rate of his Green Flame Technique cultivation.
He had thought that after he had fulfilled all the cultivation requirements, coupled with his “smart” head, cultivating the Green Flame Technique would’ve been as easy as ABC for him.
Unfortunately, after rational and objective analysis, the system gave Lu Yuan a reasonable success rate.
That’s right, the success rate was 50%. The current Lu Yuan only had a 50% chance of successfully cultivating the technique.
The results were clear that a certain someone’s brain was not as smart as he had thought.
Although the current success rate was only 50%, Lu Yuan did not feel dejected. He still had a confident look on his face.
Destined Lucky Star… Activate!
Lu Yuan activated his luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, and started to madly increase his luck value on the cultivate the Green Flame Technique interface.
[Ding! The host’s luck value has been reduced to 10 points. 10 points are the minimum. If your luck value continues to decrease, it may trigger the special effect, Disaster Descent.]
After adding 185 points of luck value to the Green Flame Technique, a cold voice sounded in Lu Yuan’s mind.
Only then did Lu Yuan stop his crazy act of adding points.
It was also at this moment that Lu Yuan recalled that the Tale of Immortal had a concept about “minimum luck”.
The so-called minimum luck was actually a critical point. If one’s luck value fell below this point, all sorts of unfortunate things could happen.
Some evil cultivators who had done many malicious things might even have their luck reach a negative value. A negative luck value meant that the unlucky fellow might encounter some big shot of a righteous sect one day and be blown to pieces on the spot.
Lu Yuan wasn’t sure what would happen if his luck value dropped below 10 points, but he obviously didn’t want to try.
After all, who would like to suffer for no reason?
Moreover, that special effect called Disaster Descent was obviously not something good!
However, as an expert in looking for trouble, Lu Yuan planned to look for an opportunity in the future to see what kind of effect this so-called “Disaster Descent” had.
These were all matters for the future, though. After Lu Yuan finished distributing the luck value, the success rate of his Green Flame Technique cultivation had indeed increased by a lot.
[Skill: Green Flame Technique]
[Condition 1: Fire and wood spiritual root, each with aptitudes greater than 30 points (satisfied)]
[Condition 2: Green flame pill (satisfied)]
[Luck: 185]
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 68.5%]
Looking at the success rate displayed on the interface, Lu Yuan’s confidence disappeared.
A success rate of only 68.5%?
This didn’t make sense!
Was the Green Flame Technique that difficult to cultivate?
Even after converting 185 points of luck value, it only increased the success rate by 18.5%.
At the very most, the success rate was only about 70%!
Rounding it up, wasn’t it equivalent to a sure fail?
The price of failing to master the Green Flame Technique was death!
What was the value of death due to failure?
Could he afford to fail?
He couldn’t!
This can’t do. He couldn’t cultivate it without a 98% success rate!
With such a thought, Lu Yuan was stuck in a dilemma on the spot.
At this point, it would be wrong if he cultivated the technique, but also wrong if he didn’t. Making a decision was hard …
[Ding! The conditions to trigger the Destined Time have been met. After triggering, your bad luck value will be reduced to zero. Do you want to activate it?]
[Destined Time]
[Duration: 5 minutes]
[Effect: Current luck value will be doubled]
“Hmm?”
Just as Lu Yuan was at his wits’ end, the system sent another notification.
It was also at this moment that Lu Yuan recalled that his luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, did not only have the effects of “seizing luck” and “distributing luck”. It also had a chance to trigger the special effect, Destined Time!
The effect of Destined Time was very simple. It could double his luck value for a certain period!
To Lu Yuan, who was currently worried about not having enough luck value, this was undoubtedly a timely help.
However, he did not activate it immediately. Instead, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly ran to the bathtub at the side to take a bath and change his clothes.
After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Lu Yuan ran back to his seat and sat down respectfully. He then put on an extremely pious posture.
This set of smooth and natural actions was somewhat similar to the metaphysical operations of the card-drawing games in Lu Yuan’s previous life.
After this series of operations, Lu Yuan discovered that his success rate of the Green Flame Technique cultivation had indeed increased a little.
Although it was only a small increase of 1%, it was still substantial!
After seeing that his metaphysical actions had actually achieved results, Lu Yuan was even more excited.
It was effective. Such metaphysics was indeed effective!
Come to think of it, he was already in a celestial cultivation world. Shouldn’t he be talking about metaphysics?
He couldn’t possibly ignore metaphysics and place importance on science in this celestial cultivation world, right?
Could science allow him to ascend?
Could science allow him to ride a flying sword?
The answers were obviously no.
The times have changed!
Science simply did not exist in the celestial world!
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 69.5% (50% +18.5% +1%)]
Although the success rate had increased, Lu Yuan still felt that it was not enough.
Including the double luck value of the Destined Time effect, the overall success rate was only 88%.
There was still a 10% difference from his desired success rate of 98%!
Without a 98% chance, it would be a failure!
To be safe, Lu Yuan began to wait.
What he was waiting for?
Lu Yuan’s answer was that he was waiting for the best time to cultivate the Green Flame Technique!
Drawing cards at a specific time could increase the SSR rate, so what was wrong with him learning skills at a specified time too?
After two hours…
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 67.5% (50% +18.5% -1%)]
It was not enough. He had to continue waiting!
Four hours passed…
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 71.5% (50% +18.5% +3%)]
It was still not enough. He wanted it to be higher!
Finally, after waiting bitterly for eight hours when it was almost dawn, Lu Yuan finally found the best opportunity he had been waiting for!
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 78.5% (50% +18.5% +10%)]
It was now!
Destined Time… Activate!
[Ding! The host’s bad luck has been reduced to zero. Special effect, Destined Time, has been activated!]
[Skill: Green Flame Technique]
[Luck: 370]
[Current Cultivation Success Rate: 97%]
At this moment, Lu Yuan felt that he was heaven’s chosen!
Without any hesitation, he ate the green flame pill.
In the next second, the boundless power of the green flame started to reverberate within Lu Yuan’s body.
Lu Yuan endured the intense pain that felt like he was being burned and started to condense the power of the green flame from the green flame pill into the green flame origin according to the cultivation method of the divine ability.
This process should not have been easy.
This was because the violent power of the green flame was like a wild horse. How could it be easily controlled?
However, at this moment, Lu Yuan discovered, to his surprise, that the power of the green flame was quite docile.
It was so docile that it seemed to be subduing itself.
In this case, he didn’t need to do anything. He could easily condense the green flame origin.
This was what it meant to be heaven’s chosen!
Three days later…
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new skill, the Green Flame Technique]
[Green Flame Technique (level 1): 0/200]
Success!
Lu Yuan opened his eyes and his expression was extremely excited.
Then, he stretched out his hand and a burst of green fire appeared in his palm.
The dancing green fire was the green flame!
With the green flame, he now had the ability to refine Foundation Establishment Stage medicinal herbs.
As long as he could obtain a Foundation Establishment Stage pill recipe and the ingredients, he could start trying to refine Foundation Establishment Stage pills!
As long as everything went well, the days when he was free from demoness Meng Ruyan were not far away!
