CHAPTER 15: Cold Moon Fairy (Major Cultivation)
Every day, Liu Yu took one Clear Spirit Elixir, and his cultivation speed had significantly increased compared to before.
The reason he only took one elixir daily was that, at his current cultivation level, he could just manage to refine the medicinal power of one elixir each day.
If he consumed too many elixirs, the excess medicinal power that he couldn't refine would accumulate in his body and gradually form Dan Poison.
The accumulation of Dan Poison would create huge obstacles when attempting breakthroughs or overcoming bottlenecks.
The more Dan Poison accumulated, the more difficult it became to achieve a breakthrough.
However, even taking just one elixir daily was comparable to the treatment afforded to direct descendants of prominent families or core disciples of major sects!
As time passed, half a month went by.
Liu Yu could clearly feel that his magical power had increased slightly, and he had made a steady advance on the path of the fifth layer of qi refinement.
Today was the day he had arranged with Senior Brother Shang to go to Preaching Peak, so he ended his cultivation early and left his cave dwelling.
As the hour of the pig approached, the sky was still dark.
After exiting the cave, Liu Yu took out the newly acquired Giant Wood Sword.
Injecting it with magical power, it swiftly transformed into an Azure Wide Sword about two zhang long and two feet wide, becoming a streak of azure light as it flew toward Bamboo Peak.
Bamboo Peak was situated between Greenwood Peak and Preaching Peak, not far from Greenwood Peak.
In about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, it came into view.
Liu Yu didn't ascend the mountain directly but landed in a small pavilion at the foot of the mountain’s bamboo forest, where he took the opportunity to recover his spent magical power.
This had been agreed upon in the sound transmission talisman.
He didn't have to wait long; after about a quarter of an hour, Senior Brother Shang appeared in the air riding a fan-shaped magical artifact.
Senior Brother Shang's full name was Shang Chuanjiang, twenty-six years old, at the sixth layer of qi refinement, belonging to the "family lineage."
He was a disciple of the foundation establishment family "Shang Family," but he was not from the direct line of descent, so he didn't receive much support in resources.
He had a standard square face, slightly dark skin, and a lean figure, resembling a worldly old rogue, making him appear quite seasoned.
"Ha ha~"
"Junior Brother Liu, it’s been months since we last met! I hope I didn't keep you waiting!"
Before he arrived, a hearty laugh echoed through the air.
Senior Brother Shang walked into the pavilion, greeting Liu Yu.
Noticing the changes in Liu Yu's cultivation level and magical artifact, he was very surprised.
He never expected that in just three months of not seeing each other, Liu Yu not only advanced a layer in cultivation but also upgraded to a medium-grade magical artifact.
This was something that ordinary outer sect disciples couldn't achieve!
"Senior Brother Shang, how have you been?"
"I just arrived as well; there's no time to waste, let's head out!"
"If we get to Preaching Peak early, we can secure a good position closer to Shishu."
Liu Yu clasped his hands in salute, conversing with him familiaringly.
The two then rode their magical artifacts, transforming into two streaks of light, one azure and one white, disappearing into the sky.
Shang Chuanjiang always felt that this "Junior Brother Liu" was somewhat different from his other disciples.
Some of his novel ideas were quite imaginative and insightful, benefiting Shang Chuanjiang greatly.
Thus, he was keen to befriend him and maintain a good relationship.
Preaching Peak was located to the north of Yuan Yang Sect, with a height of only over five hundred zhang, which was not considered tall among the Yuan Yang mountains.
However, it was a place familiar to many outer sect disciples.
Every two months, on the fifteenth day, the sect would arrange for a foundation establishment steward to come here to preach.
