From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal-Chapter 223 - 218: Wind Thunder Wings

"Taihao Spirit Ascending Pill..."

The spring rain drizzled down, like dense threads of needles descending from the sky, drawing fine ripples across the pond.

Li Quanqing sat cross-legged on the embankment beside the shore, with wisps of water vapor rising, creating a hazy veil that obscured his figure, mysterious and elusive.

His fingers were slender as he took out a water-blue elixir from the Jade Bottle, crystal clear like a blue gem, its surface covered with dan patterns.

The fragrance of the elixir was rich and penetrating, entering the nostrils with a fresh scent that irresistibly reminded one of the woods after the rain, refreshing and pleasant.

"Hopefully, it won’t disappoint me."

Li Quanqing placed the elixir into his mouth, and it immediately dissolved into saliva, falling down his throat and spreading into surging tides of Spiritual Energy through his meridians.

This was an elixir suitable for Great Cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, on which he had spent a significant sum to purchase several bottles.

The medicinal strength roared, as if it had concentrated the Spiritual Energy of an entire lake within, so intense it could almost suffocate, with the essence of the elixir emanating from all seven orifices.

The effect was indeed excellent; one elixir, after being refined, eventually turned into one and a half drops of liquid Mana.

You should know, the Mana of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, whether it’s the solidity or the niveau of contained Spiritual Energy, far surpasses that of the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

Previously, one drop of Heavenly One Spirit Liquid could turn into one drop of liquid Mana, but now after refining it again, it could only become slightly more than a half drop, the effect significantly reduced.

"Pill-based cultivation really is addictive!"

Li Quanqing exhaled a breath of stale air, running the Canghai Whale Emperor Technique, with flesh, bones, and muscles resonating, suppressing the astonishing surge of medicinal power.

After his cultivation session, it was already half a day, and the sun was high in the sky.

"Alas, time for a meal!"

Li Quanqing stretched his limbs, his bones cracking like popping beans, feeling an extraordinary strength arising from deep within his body.

He took out a small fishing boat, braved the waves to sail into the pond, his robe sleeves fluttering, scattering pellets of bait, round and full, floating atop the water.

The aroma diffused, and soon Green Jade Carps began to compete for it, and eventually the pond’s surface was covered with a dense mass of fish scales, like a green island.

[Harvested a Qi Refining Late Stage Golden Pattern Jade Carp, reward 2 drops of Heavenly One Spirit Liquid!]

[Harvested a Qi Refining Late Stage Golden Pattern Jade Carp, reward the inheritance of a Second-Order Spiritual Object "Moonlight Treasure Clothing"!]

[Harvested a Qi Refining Late Stage Golden Pattern Jade Carp, reward 5 Protecting Vein Pills!]

Li Quanqing swept his Divine Sense across, clearly detecting every breakthrough into a Golden Pattern Jade Carp, grasping each Light Group in his hand with precision.

This batch of Golden Pattern Jade Carps, having been raised for such a long time, and with Third Rank Spirit Veins moved here for several years.

Finally, one after another, they all began to advance to the Qi Refining Late Stage realm.

Like Ao Gou and the others who broke through earlier, they are all now at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer realm, but unfortunately, they are stuck at the Foundation Establishment barrier.

The Li Family has bred Green Jade Carps for a thousand years, only to accumulate a single Green Horned Fish Dragon, which shows how precious it is and suggests the difficulty in breaking the constraints of bloodline.

Li Quanqing examined the Light Groups in his hand; with the increase in the quantity of Golden Pattern Jade Carps, the rewards naturally became much richer.

Firstly, there is the Second-Order Spirit Artifact "Moonlight Treasure Clothing." After the light group is crushed, it transforms into a snow-white Jade Scroll, exuding a cool and icy aura.

This legacy is very complete, with tiers ranging from low to high; it starts with the ability to refine the First Rank "Moonlight Vestment robe," followed by the Second Rank treasure clothing.

Li Quanqing’s expression was slightly odd; no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this legacy was a natural fit for the recently raised group of Moon Pattern Rabbits.

These poor bunnies, not yet fully grown, already had their futures decided.

"My Li Family has the three-piece set of Green Carp Sword, Green Scale Escape, and Green Jade Armor; now we are going to have the Moonlight Vestment robe as well, this is indeed great news!"

Li Quanqing caressed the Jade Scroll, and although he hadn’t engaged in Artifact Refining for a long time, the rewards of Magic Artifacts he usually handed out were always sold to the family.

He then looked towards the remaining light groups; this reward was even more incredible, it was 5 Protecting Vein Pills.

The risks of failing to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm is significant; with enormous Heaven and Earth Essence Qi pouring in, meridian damage and cultivation regression are minor issues.

Cases like Loose Cultivators losing all their cultivation, having their meridians completely severed, becoming invalids, or even passing away were not uncommon.

The function of the Protecting Vein Pill is to use the power of the Elixir to protect the entire meridian system of the cultivator, ensuring life preservation even in the event of a breakthrough failure.

These 5 Protecting Vein Pills represent 5 Qi Refining Perfect cultivators who can safely attempt the Foundation Establishment Realm without worry.

"The Protecting Vein Pills, together with the Dragon Snake True Evil, are already equivalent to half a Foundation Establishment Pill; this is good news, perhaps Li Quange can give it a try."

Li Quanqing crushed the light group and grabbed the five green Jade Bottles in his hand, each bottle mouth was sealed with a Sealing Spirit Seal to ensure the medicine’s potency would not fade for a hundred years.

Among his close relatives, several have not yet reached Foundation Establishment; they are stuck in the Qi Refining Ninth Layer realm, nearing the completion of their cultivation.

Li Quange, for example, is a fine specimen. Born a Demon Hunting Practitioner, with a tenacious and unyielding character, he has experienced many battles and has a deep foundation.

Li Quanshu’s Spirit Root is a bit too low. If it hadn’t been for picking up that Ice Phoenix Feather later, and using it to cultivate the Ice Based Cultivation Method, there would have been no chance of reaching Qi Refining Perfection.

Li Quanfu has participated in too few battles, his character is not up to par, the same goes for Li Quanzhu; even expending Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects would likely result in high chance of failure.

Days go by and in the blink of an eye, another half a year passes by. The life of a family’s cultivator is just like this, calm as water, without too many surprises.

Li Quanqing consumed three bottles of Taihao Spirit Ascending Pills, and finally, within his Dantian, successfully accumulated two hundred and sixty drops of liquid Magic Power.

"My limit in the Foundation Establishment realm should be three hundred and sixty drops..."

Sitting cross-legged on the cushion, Li Quanqing carefully sensed his own state, his heart also filled with some pride.

Many cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection have Mana around three hundred drops, some with inadequate Cultivation Techniques have even less than two hundred drops.

Being able to cultivate to three hundred and sixty drops is already considered a gifted talent, and it would greatly assist in Core Formation.

"Hiss hiss!!"

A harsh hissing sound echoed in his ears; above the fishpond, the Wind and Thunder Python King was freely stretching its body, flapping its wings, covering the sky like purple-green clouds.

Third Rank Spirit Veins vibrated, with abundant Heaven and Earth Essence Qi swarming in, forming a stormy tide that converged towards this place.

After long years of cultivation and consuming numerous Second Rank Thunder Cloud Pills, the Wind and Thunder Python King had finally reached its cultivation limit recently.

It had already attempted to break through several times, but unfortunately, it had always fallen short. Judging by today’s momentum, it might succeed in one go.

The Wind and Thunder Python King roared towards the heavens, swiftly dancing and moving within the Spiritual Energy tide, almost turning into a purple-green flash of lightning as it shuttled through it.

Its scales burst open all over its body, with thunder bursting from its flesh; its massive Demon Energy was as grand as a rainbow, with the horn on its forehead bright and scorching hot.

"Hiss!!"

With a spirited shriek, it finally broke through the long-troubled bottleneck, reaching the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

[Harvested one Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Wind and Thunder Python, awarded a Top-grade Spirit Artifact "Wind Thunder Wings"!]
