Fantasy: I Receive Critical Chance For Compensation When I Give Away Fateful Encounters - Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Are You Giving Me Something Again?

In Jingzhou, there were also some body-tempering cultivation techniques, but the highest was only a Profound-rank cultivation technique. This was because the cultivators in Jingzhou valued the cultivation of True Qi more. Most of them relied on treasures for physical defense. They believed that as long as they cultivated their True Qi to a certain extent, their bodies would gradually be enhanced, and thus did not pay much attention to body-tempering cultivation techniques.

However, the Buddhists were completely different. They believed that the effects of True Qi were only temporary. They preferred to temper and train their bodies. As long as they cultivated their bodies to the extreme, they wouldn’t need to fear True Qi attacks. They were even capable of certain physical feats that True Qi cultivators weren’t.

For example, entering the deep sea to fight demonic beasts! The atmospheric pressure in the deep sea was different from land. When True Qi cultivators entered the deep sea, their cultivation techniques might have only one-fifth of their power on ground. Compared to cultivators of body-tempering techniques, whose strength would only be reduced by half.

Therefore, generally speaking, body-tempering cultivation techniques were the most popular techniques in the Western Heavens. However, this did not mean that Buddhist body-tempering techniques were invincible, only that they preferred to cultivate such cultivation techniques. There were also some body-tempering cultivation techniques in the Heavenly Domain that could be compared to Buddhist ones.

For example, the Purple Star Sect, one of the high-level sects, was a sect that specialized in body-tempering cultivation techniques! The Purple Star Sect’s supreme scripture was of a top-notch body-tempering cultivation technique. Even the Buddhist Sect did not dare to ignore its existence.

“With this body-tempering technique, I have a solution to the problem of inadequate physical defense!”

Su’en was ecstatic. The cultivation techniques in the Dao Sect were basically all sword techniques. There were also other types, but too few of them, and all of low grades. He simply couldn’t find the cultivation techniques he wanted.

“This monk is interesting. He even left a Diamond Pill behind.” Su’en removed a small bottle from the box and poured out a golden

pill.

The surface of the pill was smooth. Upon closer inspection, he discovered some subtle patterns: stripes that looked like arhats cultivating

This was also the first time Su’en had seen a Diamond Pill because it was a pill unique to Buddhism. It was not common in Jingzhou. However, Monk Sikong’s message said that the Diamond Pill had been refined from the blood essence of powerful demon beasts and the power of the Buddhist Vajra. After consuming it, one could speed up the cultivation speed of their body-tempering techniques, as well as deepen one’s understanding of said technique.

“With this Diamond Pill, it shouldn’t be too difficult to cultivate this Earth-rank body refinement technique!”

Su’en returned the pill to the bottle, thinking, Who should I give this to? His internal conflict was because in the past, he would have given the pill to his junior Ye Lingyun, no questions asked, but now Chen Ziling was an option too. After thinking about it for a while, he made a decision.

It’s better to give it to Ye Lingyun. There’s plenty of time to give Chen Ziling opportunities in the future.

Although Chen Ziling was quite talented, he had just met her, and didn’t know much about her character. Best to wait until he knew her better. Then, he could give her something as a congratulatory gift of sorts. As for his junior Ye Lingyun, she had been a part of the Dao Sect for a long time. Wasn’t it normal for a senior to present their junior with a gift?

“This Diamond Mystic Body Technique is of a medium-grade Earth-rank, one grade higher than the previous Golden Lightning Sword Technique. It might well be a Heaven Realm cultivation technique!”

On the way back, Su’en was filled with anticipation. Heaven Realm cultivation techniques were too rare for them to be common amongst sects in the Heavenly Domain. And now he had one. But who would complain about too many Heaven Realm cultivation techniques?

Soon, Su’en emerged from the mine. Chen Wu was waiting there with his clansmen.

Seeing Su’en appear, Chen Wu quickly stepped forward and spoke. “Exalted Disciple, let’s go back. We have a banquet waiting at home!”

“Sure, let’s go!” Su’en nodded. Since he had already found the opportunity, there was no need to stay here anymore.

………..

When they returned to the Chen family mansion, the entire clan was celebrating. In fact, the whole of Guanyu City knew they had won the contest, and were excitedly discussing how they would no longer have to bow and scrape when encountering members of Black Cloud City in the future. It was common for neighboring cities to get into disputes over simple resources. Therefore, relations between both cities were rather hostile.

Su’en had little interest in the banquet held by the Chens and found a reason to leave halfway through. Right now, he only wanted to give away the cultivation technique and medicinal pills in his hand, and see how many times his Critical Compensation would be multiplied!

The moon appeared in the sky with the arrival of night.

Su’en paid a visit to Ye Lingyun’s courtyard. As usual, she was practicing her cultivation. Illuminated by luminous moonlight, she looked like an otherworldly fairy.

“Senior!”

Sensing Su’en’s arrival, Ye Lingyun stopped her cultivation and stood up to greet him.

Most people liked to stay in their rooms when they cultivated so they would not be easily disturbed, but Ye Lingyun preferred to cultivate outdoors, same as when she was in the Heavenly Domain. According to his junior, she enjoyed the sensation of being between heaven and earth, and disliked being in a stuffy, cramped room.

“How are you? Have you recovered?” Su’en asked, smiling.

“More or less.” Ye Lingyun nodded. “I’ll be completely fine after cultivating for a few days!”

Before condensing one’s Golden Core, the source of True Qi was one’s Qi and blood. Excessive use of both was equivalent to draining them from one’s body. Hence, most wouldn’t consume too much True Qi, unless as a last resort. However, Ye Lingyun hadn’t wanted to lose the duel. In order to use the second-level of her Golden Lightning Sword Technique, she had chosen to forcefully consume her True Qi.

“Good to know!” Su’en replied, preparing to take out his cultivation technique and medicinal pills, before being interrupted by Ye Lingyun.

“Senior! Are you planning to give me something again?”

Su’en was speechless. He looked at his cheeky junior, at a loss. Why was his junior so fickle? He shook himself to his senses and coughed to cover up his embarrassment.

“Ah, my junior knows me so well.”

“Every time you look for me, you seem to give me something.” Seeing Su’en’s reaction, Ye Lingyun’s eyes flashed with amusement.
