Chapter 120: Spirit Fire

The "Wood-Fire Incineration Technique" was a cultivation method that could directly lead to the Nascent Soul stage. Wang Hong had spent a considerable amount of time selecting from various techniques, and those capable of directly cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage were quite scarce.

Therefore, it was one of the most valuable cultivation techniques, costing a hundred thousand contribution points to duplicate, equivalent to the value of a Foundation Establishment Pill.

However, a saying circulated in the Cultivation World: "Elixirs have a price, but Cultivation Techniques are priceless."

Even if an elixir was expensive, it had a measurable value. In contrast, a good Cultivation Technique was often considered a treasure of a sect's heritage and wouldn't be sold at any price.

Wang Hong chose to focus on cultivating Cultivation Techniques and also found a technique called "Indomitable Body Refinement Art."

This was a high-tier Body Refining Technique divided into five layers: practicing the skin, muscles, tendons, bones, and internal organs. Each layer further had three realms: initiation, achievement, and mastery.

What pleased him the most was that this Cultivation Technique came with a magical art. It allowed him to control the shape of his skin, muscles, tendons, and bones, essentially changing his appearance.

This magical art was far superior to his Thousand Illusions Mask. The mask only altered facial features, a mere illusion that could be easily discerned. In contrast, this magical art could change the entire body shape, making it virtually impossible for anyone to recognize his original form, even if discovered.Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

In the future, when he mastered this technique, he should be able to assume various forms. If he transformed into a female cultivator or even a Demonic Beast, no one would likely recognize him.

However, these were just contemplations for now. At the first level of cultivation, the most he could achieve was minor alterations to his skin, like adding a few wrinkles or changing color.

Yet, this Cultivation Technique was even more expensive, requiring fifteen thousand contribution points. Despite the cost, he gritted his teeth and decided to exchange for it.

Contribution points could be earned again, and now that he had successfully built his foundation, he no longer needed to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills.

High-tier Cultivation Techniques were typically possessed by long-standing and deeply rooted sects. Small sects might have one or two, kept well hidden.

Other ancient ruins might also harbor high-tier Cultivation Techniques, but acquiring them often involved fierce battles. Even if obtained, they might not be more suitable than the ones available here.

After selecting these two Cultivation Techniques, Wang Hong proceeded to the Copying Area.

"The total is two hundred and fifty thousand contribution points. Are you sure about these two Cultivation Techniques?" The purple-robed daoist in charge of copying carefully assessed the situation and asked solemnly.

"Sure!"

After a while, he organized the complex information. It turned out these Cultivation Technique Jade Scrolls were disposable, and they had a restriction. While he could understand it, attempting to articulate or write it down would cause excruciating headaches.

This, presumably, was a security measure to safeguard the sect's high-tier Cultivation Techniques.

He tried the other Jade Scroll, and the same happened.

Wang Hong began the process of Hidden Cultivation once again.

The "Wood-Fire Incineration Technique" emphasized Wood-Fire Dual Cultivation, utilizing Wood Element Spiritual Power to enhance vitality. In case of injury, the recovery speed surpassed that of an ordinary cultivator by threefold.

Wood nourished fire, and wood aided the intensity of fire. Simultaneously cultivating the Fire Element made the firepower stronger, surpassing the power of cultivators solely focused on the Fire Element.

Although Fire Element attacks were potent, cultivating only Fire Element was like a fire without a source. Wood-Fire Dual Cultivation allowed continuous nourishment of Fire Element by Wood Element, ensuring an uninterrupted source of firepower.

Additionally, the Cultivation Technique mentioned that during the Foundation Building stage, one could cultivate a kind of Spirit Fire. Typically, cultivators had to reach the Golden Core stage to cultivate Samadhi True Fire. However, this Cultivation Technique provided a unique method to master a flame in advance, though not as powerful as Golden Core Samadhi True Fire, it offered considerable convenience.

This Spirit Fire could assist in alchemy, refining tools, attacking enemies, and according to the description, it seemed quite formidable.

The cultivation of this Spirit Fire required gathering fire from wood, preserving a trace of wood attribute within it. The collected flames would be extracted, incorporated into the body, and nourished by the Wood Element Spiritual Power, fostering its growth.

However, he had just reached Foundation Building, and his realm was not stable yet. These aspects had to be postponed for later.

Therefore, he immersed himself in closed-door cultivation for a month, just managing to stabilize his realm.

At this point, the sect's biennial Grand Competition had already begun.

Wang Hong attended a few matches, where participants showcased their most powerful techniques, drawing cheers from the audience.

However, with Wang Hong's current strength, watching Qi Cultivation stage competitions felt somewhat dull.

Zhang Chunfeng had also enrolled in the Sect Grand Competition and had successfully entered the top one hundred.
