Central Plains Continent, Pure Yang sect.
The morning light enveloped the valley, and in the valley, there was a spiritual field that was about to run out of spiritual energy.
At one end of the spiritual field, there was a towering mountain wall. There was an ancient tree. Under the shade of the tree, there was a lonely, small wooden house.
Under the ancient tree, there was also a stone table and a stool.
This was one of the nine great peaks of the Pure Yang sect, the Tempered Spirit Peak. This was a medicinal garden that was about to be abandoned.
At this moment, a youth on the stone stool slowly opened his eyes. This youth was 16 years old. He had fair skin and a pair of deep black eyes that seemed to be able to see through one’s past and present life. His expression ice-cold, and he had a straight nose bridge.
Ever since he transmigrated into this body three years ago, he had entered the most powerful sect in the Tianluo Kingdom, the Pure Yang sect. He had cultivated for five years here.
Now, his cultivation level was only at the first stage of the Body Refinement realm.
His aptitude was extremely poor. He had been soaking in herbs since he was young and consuming spiritual items, trying to improve himself.
In the end, he had relied on the herbs in his clan to forcefully reach the first level of the Body Refinement realm. However, this had almost exhausted all the herbs in his clan.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to sense Qi, and was unable to cultivate Qi.
To cultivate Qi, one had to absorb the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from within one’s body. After one had refined for a long time, one would be able to cultivate Qi, and use Qi to nourish one’s ‘spirit’.
Basically, everyone in this world would choose to cultivate Qi. This was because as long as one could find the sense of Qi, their cultivation speed would be much faster than that of body refinement.
Body refinement required constant changes in one’s physique. One had to use the essence Qi to open up the meridians in one’s body, allowing the body to transform continuously. To unleash the potential of the body, one had to use all sorts of herbs to assist in cultivation. Even an ordinary clan would not be able to afford such a level of consumption.
Do not think that the Pure Yang sect was that easy to enter. The Pure Yang sect’s recruitment of disciples was extremely harsh. However, there was a backdoor method to join the clan. An elder of the Pure Yang sect had once owed a favor to the Su clan’s ancestors. With this relationship, Su Chen was able to enter the outer sect of the Pure Yang sect.
However, because of his difficulty in cultivation, the elder of the sect had asked him to come here to take care of the herbs.
This place used to be a place with a lot of influence and connections — the Spirit Tempering Peak. There was a medicinal garden, but now, it was about to be abandoned. There were only some unimportant herbs here.
Now, Su Chen could be considered the only disciple on Tempered Spirit Peak.
Su Chen had once tried to verify his current strength, but the result was disappointing. The strength of the first stage of the Body Refinement realm was really too weak. He could not even break a wooden board.
In Central Plains, the strong were respected. The legendary strong cultivators could smash a mountain peak with one palm and ride on a sword. They were omnipotent.
Meanwhile, the weak were like ants. They were easily crushed by the strong. They did not even have a chance to resist!
In this cultivation world, cultivation talent was extremely important.
The stronger one’s cultivation talent was, the stronger one’s future achievements would be. Moreover, the cultivation speed was very fast. There were almost no bottlenecks.
The poorer one’s talent in cultivation was, the easy it was for one to see the limits of their realm. Moreover, their cultivation speed would be as slow as a crawling turtle.
At this moment, Su Chen said slowly while playing the board game ‘Go’.
“I’m afraid that these herbs won’t last for long. They lack of spiritual energy, and they’re so similar to me who doesn’t have any sense of Qi.”
Just as Su Chen was lamenting, the gate of the herb garden was pushed open by two young men.
Su Chen could not help but frown. He turned his head and glanced at them indifferently. He continued to play Go.
This was the quintessence of the nation from the world he had transmigrated to.
Su Chen could not cultivate Qi, and he did not have any good herbs to refine his body. He had to research something to pass the time, so he did not want to bother with these two people at all.
A moment later, Su Chen held a white Go piece in his hand.
Clack!
The sound of the Go piece being slammed on the board could be heard. It was placed precisely at the centre of the board.
When the two saw this, they were also startled and muttered, “This trash only knows how to play with things that others can’t understand, and he doesn’t cultivate either.”
They were outer sect disciples of the Alchemy Hall, and they often needed medicinal herbs to refine pills. Although they were only outer sect disciples, they could go to the outer sect’s medicinal garden every month to obtain the medicinal herbs needed to refine pills.
They originally had a better place to go to, but they were ordered to come here to collect medicinal herbs.
The two of them did not want to waste their breath with Su Chen, and walked towards the medicinal field.
After looking at the medicinal herbs in front of them, which lacked spiritual energy.
One of the disciples who was wearing a long green robe could not help but say, “Look at these medicinal herbs. The spiritual energy has dried up. They’re almost dead. Can they still refine pills?”
The disciple who was wearing a long green robe looked at his feet. The medicinal herbs’ spiritual energy had dried up.
At this moment, the other disciple looked at the medicinal herbs and said helplessly, “They can’t be used to refine pills? Don’t tell me you’re going to look for that strange elder from the Pill Peak’s medicinal garden? I heard that he seems to be short of some medicinal herb recently. His already fiery temper has become even worse!”
Hearing these words, the expression of the green-robed disciple tensed up and he said, “That elder is too eccentric. I often hear that there are disciples who, for some unknown reason, are sent flying out of the medicinal garden by him, spitting out fresh blood.”
Another disciple subconsciously touched his chest and said, “You might not know this, but that day when I took the medicinal order to the Pill Peak medicinal garden to retrieve the medicine, I was sent flying out of the medicinal garden by a huge force just because I took an extra Meridian Unblocking Herb!”
“You were chased away just for a Meridian Unblocking Herb? That’s too much!” The green-robed disciple was slightly surprised.
However, he did not dare to say anything else and continued to search for the herbs.
After finding the herbs, he did not forget to ridicule Su Chen.
“What a waste. You managed to ruin even these low-grade herbs. Bah!”
After saying that, he left without turning his head back.
At this moment, Su Chen, who was playing Go, gave them an indifferent glance.
Naturally, Su Chen had heard their conversation just now. As for ridiculing him, he did not pay much attention to it.
Just as he was about to get up and continue watering the herbs… Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed in his mind.
[Ding! The Unlimited Modification of Herb Year System binding is in progress…]
At this moment, Su Chen only felt a tingling sensation, and he closed his eyes. A moment later, the crisp sound echoed once again.
[Binding successful!]
Binding? System!?
“What is this?” Su Chen muttered. However, he did not expect the system to respond to his muttering.
[This system is called the Unlimited Modification of Herb Year System. The host can modify the year of the herb indefinitely! The year of the herb can be modified, and the modified herb will reach the modified age one day later.]
[However, it should be noted that the time of year modification would change with the system’s level. For example, a level 1 system could modify the herb for 50 years in a day, a level 2 system could modify the herb for 100 years in a day, a level 3 system could change the herbs for 300 years, and a level 4 system could change the herbs for 500 years.]
[There was no limit to the number of herbs that could be modified.]
[As for the other functions, the host is required to explore on his own.]
[The system’s gift package is being distributed…]
[The host has obtained a Bone Forging Herb seed.]
Just as the system’s voice ended, Su Chen suddenly opened his eyes, his face filled with shock.
“Modify the year of herbs! Bone Forging Herb!”
This was the legendary golden ticket!? Was he about to change his fate?!
Changing the year of the herb! He could modify the year of the herb for 50 years in a day!
This ability was too amazing.
Su Chen opened his eyes from his shock. He felt something in his hand and looked down.
It was a seed the size of a sesame seed, and it was completely black.
“This is the seed of Bone Forging Herb?”
What was the effect of this Bone Forging Herb?
Su Chen then thought that even though he could not sense Qi refinement, but now he had the system to modify the year of the herb!
His problem of not being able to sense Qi… Now that he had the system, could he rely on the system to solve this problem?
Just as Su Chen was thinking hard, he suddenly exclaimed, “How could I forget about that!?”
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. There was an ancient book in the wooden house that seemed to introduce herbs.
When he first came to the herb garden, he found it on the table, but he was not interested.
He casually threw it away and did not know where it was in the house.
Su Chen immediately walked quickly to the small house. He started rummaging through it.
As long as he found it, he would be able to restore his sense of Qi, and he could even cultivate!
What a wonderful thing it would be..
