Fantasy: I Receive Critical Chance For Compensation When I Give Away Fateful Encounters - Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Senior! Isn’t This Too Precious?

Inside the other box was a cultivation technique book, titled ‘Return to One Sword Technique’.

“Low-grade Earth-rank?”

Su’en was surprised when he saw the grade of the cultivation technique. But when he thought of the Purple Star Sect, he collected himself. When considering the strength of the sect, this low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique wasn’t that remarkable coming from them.

“So is this from Gu Chuyao, or that elder?”

On the cloud shuttle, Gu Chuyao had given him a bottle of a thousand wisps of Divine Lightning Breath. In his opinion, she had already repaid him for saving her life.

After a moment’s thought, Su’en shook his head. Since he couldn’t figure the situation out, he decided not to think about it. The items had already been sent over, so he would just accept them. They were an opportunity of sorts, anyway.

“Ye Lingyun should still be in seclusion, so I won’t disturb her. I’ll give this to Chen Ziling! This should be considered doing my duty as a senior.” Su’en was lost in thought. Previously, Ye Lingyun had been his only choice for who he could give items to, but now that there was Chen Ziling too, he couldn’t just ignore her. Plus, Chen Ziling was also very talented; her potential was worth nurturing.

With that in mind, Su’en flew toward Chen Ziling’s courtyard.

“First form of the Mystic Lightning Sword Technique: Lightning Slash!”

Even before reaching her courtyard, Su’en heard Chen Ziling casting a sword technique. He disappeared from where he was and appeared within the walls of the courtyard.

Leaves fell around them as Chen Ziling cultivated her sword technique. She was looking lively: dressed in a purple gown, dark hair flowing. She had managed to figure out the technique in a month, without anyone’s guidance.

Chen Ziling’s petite figure leaped into the air. The long sword in her hand kept flashing and vanishing as sword shadows appeared and landed on the stones used for cultivation.

“What are these stones in the Heavenly Domain made of? They’re so hard. If they were the stones in my house, they would have been cut in half!”

Chen Ziling wiped the sweat off her forehead, slightly winded. Although she had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, she was only at its early-stages. Her Qi and blood essence were not tempered enough, so she couldn’t cultivate for extended periods of time.

Suddenly, there was the sound of leaves rustling in the wind.

“What?”

Chen Ziling felt someone behind her. She tightened her grip on her sword and pointed it at them. When she saw Su’en on the wall, her wary expression turned to surprise.

“Senior! Why are you here? Why did you run up the wall instead of coming through the front door?” She hurriedly walked over to Su’en.

“I saw that you were engrossed in your cultivation and didn’t want to disturb you. And I wanted to take a look at your cultivation progress for the past month.” Su’en landed in the yard.

“Senior, I’ve broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!” Chen Ziling circulated all the True Qi in her body, trying to display her realm.

“Indeed you have. You’ve also mastered the technique decently well. It may be of a low-level, but I can’t find any problems in your execution.” Su’en smiled and nodded. It was true-in all seriousness, he might have underestimated Chen Ziling’s potential. Apart from being talented, she also had a sound understanding of cultivation. She might even catch up to him.

“After so many years of decline, perhaps the Chen family will prosper under you!” he said casually. There were records of the Chen family in the history of the Dao Sect. Although the Chens weren’t the first family to follow the Dao Sect, they hadn’t been late to do so, either; around the time of the last Heaven Lord. In the past, the Chen family had been very powerful, but it had gradually declined, like the Dao Sect. Albeit to a greater extent; the strongest cultivator in the Chen family was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

“I’ll continue working hard!” At Su’en’s mention of reviving her family’s status, Chen Ziling’s eyes were filled with tenacity. Before coming to the Heavenly Domain, her father had told her a lot about the Chen family’s history. She wouldn’t waste this opportunity to cultivate in the Heavenly Domain.

“Hard work is a choice, but cultivation resources can’t be chosen.” Su’en smiled and placed the bottle of Divine Spirit Pills in Chen Ziling’s hand.

“Thank you, Senior!” Chen Ziling accepted the bottle and hurriedly thanked him. Although she didn’t know what her senior had given her, it had to be something to aid in her cultivation!

“This is a seventh-grade medicinal pill: the Heavenly Spirit Pill. Its medicinal power is gentle and rich. There are a total of ten pills. It should be able to help you cultivate to the Crystallization Realm!” Su’en said slowly.

“What? A seventh-grade medicinal pill?” Suddenly, Chen Ziling was so frightened that her hand trembled. The bottle of pills in her hand almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, she tightened her grip at the last moment.

In the Chen family, the pills she had used were only second-grade pills. To her, third-grade and fourth-grade medicinal pills were already very precious, let alone seventh-grade medicinal pills. Even if the Chen family sold all their assets, they might not be able to afford a pill of this grade!

“Senior… isn’t this too precious a gift?” Chen Ziling clenched the medicine bottle in her hand, afraid that it would fall to the ground.

“All medicinal pills, no matter how precious or how high-grade, are meant for consumption. Only then will their value be put to good use. As the saying goes: everything natural exists for a reason,” Su’en replied with a smile. “Don’t dwell on unproductive thoughts. Just relax and use my gift well.”

“Senior, I won’t let you down!” At Su’en’s words, Chen Ziling looked serious.

“That’s the right idea. Also, take this cultivation technique book.” Su’en held out the ‘Return to One Sword Technique’ book to her. He had scanned the pages briefly; it was a cultivation technique that combined sword techniques and movement techniques. Very suitable for those who gravitated towards sword techniques.

Chen Ziling reached out to take it. However, when she saw the grade of the martial arts, she was shocked. Her eyes filled with disbelief.

The technique was of a low-grade Earth-rank!

Repeat: a low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique!

What was happening today? First a seventh-grade medicinal pill, then an Earth-rank cultivation technique.

Chen Ziling felt like she was dreaming!

“Keep working hard. If any area of your cultivation isn’t progressing, you can come and find me. I shouldn’t be in seclusion for the time being,” Su’en said.

“Okay!” Chen Ziling nodded, her face full of excitement. “I won’t disappoint you, Senior!”

Su’en simply patted her shoulder and left.
