154: Chapter 154 Spiritual Tree Seeds

After leaving the Chu family, Wang Bin went to the School to collect the outer Elder's clothes and waist token, then went to the Merit Hall to select a new Cultivation Technique, the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra.

This Spirit Wood Heart Sutra primarily focuses on nourishing and strengthening the Cultivator's own Spiritual Root. A Wood Attribute Spiritual Root is the foundation for Cultivating Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques, and this Cultivation Technique can continuously stimulate the Spiritual Root's potential, making it purer and stronger.

Cultivators only need to silently recite the Heart Sutra's incantation and guide Spiritual Qi to circulate within their bodies to continuously nourish their Spiritual Root. As the Spiritual Root gradually strengthens, the Cultivator's comprehension and application of Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques will become more proficient, and their Cultivation speed will also greatly increase.

The Spirit Wood Heart Sutra primarily Cultivates Spiritual Qi, but it can also strengthen the Physical Body during the Cultivation process and even nourish Divine Sense, though the Cultivation of Spiritual Qi is the main focus.

This Cultivation Technique also has a Packages Lifebound Treasure called the Spirit Wood Seed.

As a Lifebound Treasure, the Spirit Wood Seed's unique characteristic lies in its powerful growth and transformation abilities, offering immense room for growth.

Cultivators can throw it out during battle, and upon landing, the Spirit Wood Seed will rapidly grow various Wood Attribute defenses.

In case of danger, it can instantly grow into a giant Spirit Wood Shield Tree, whose trunk and branches are as hard as iron, capable of withstanding powerful attacks.

Furthermore, it can release Wood Attribute Qi with healing and restorative effects, replenishing vitality and healing injuries for the Cultivator and their teammates.

The growth of the Spirit Wood Seed is closely linked to the Cultivator's Spiritual Root strengthening. As the Cultivator's Spiritual Root continuously improves, the type and abilities of the Spirit Wood Seed will also change.

Initially, it is just an ordinary Spirit Wood Seed, only capable of growing simple defensive trees, but when the Cultivator's Spiritual Root is fully nourished, the Spirit Wood Seed can evolve into a divine tree capable of growing Spirit Wood Sprites.

These Spirit Wood Sprites can assist the Cultivator in battle, casting various complex Wood Attribute auxiliary Spells, such as purifying toxins and restoring Spiritual Qi.

There is a mutual nourishing relationship between the Spirit Wood Seed and the Spiritual Root. The Cultivator's Spiritual Root can provide the Spiritual Qi needed for the Spirit Wood Seed's growth, ensuring it can quickly recover vitality after battle.

At the same time, when the Spirit Wood Seed grows and functions, it will feedback pure Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi to the Cultivator, further nourishing the Spiritual Root, making its attributes even purer, and also strengthening the Cultivator's comprehension of Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques.

However, the selection of a Spirit Wood Seed is very particular, requiring consideration of its variety and potential. The greater the potential of the Spirit Wood Seed, the more Spiritual Qi it will absorb from the Cultivator, which will have a certain impact on Cultivation speed.

Wang Bin was not in a hurry about this and planned to take his time.

In addition to the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra, Wang Bin also learned the Third-Grade Thunder Light Body Tempering Technique and its Packages Thunder Manipulation Array, but due to insufficient authority, he was unable to learn Cultivation Techniques for Divine Sense.

Although the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra can also nourish Divine Sense, it is still far inferior to specialized Divine Sense Cultivation Techniques.

As an outer Elder, Wang Bin now deeply realized that although he was already a Golden Core cultivator, he was merely an insignificant character in the School. The Immortal Cave he was assigned in West Sea City required him to pay ten thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones every hundred years.

He was clearly not treated as one of their own, probably because his strength was too low, so the School did not take him seriously.

Wang Bin thought, 'Forget it, thinking about this is useless.' So, he collected a deed and two sets of Formation Flags from the Merit Hall, choosing a courtyard about ten mu in size. The courtyard had one Golden Core cultivator room and four Foundation Establishment Cultivator rooms, enough for the normal Cultivation of one Golden Core cultivator and four Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Wang Bin originally planned to go see the courtyard first, but after some hesitation, he decided to go find Du Juan first. After all, this courtyard would primarily be where she and the children lived in the future, while he would likely be stationed in White Cloud City.

Wang Bin went straight to the Four Seas Commerce League's shop. His retreat to Breakthrough to Golden Core had taken a full two years.

The Four Seas Commerce League's shop looked largely unchanged, except for a few new faces among the serving girls.

"Wow! Senior Qingmu, you've Breakthrough to Golden Core! I'll go call Manager Du right away."

A serving girl saw Wang Bin and immediately exclaimed in surprise, causing a stir.

"Elder Qingmu, you really Breakthrough to Golden Core! Xiaoyue really made a fortune. I heard Xiaoyue has already undergone Foundation Establishment and hasn't been to the shop these past few years."

Li Ziqi appeared from somewhere, looking at Wang Bin with an envious expression.

Wang Bin nodded at her, and just as he was about to reply, Du Juan came out.

"Wow! Senior Brother, you've Breakthrough to Golden Core, that's great!"

Du Juan recognized Wang Bin's attire at a glance and knew he had successfully Breakthrough. If they weren't in the shop with many people around, she would have already rushed into Wang Bin's arms.

"Let's talk inside, I have something to discuss with you.", Wang Bin said.

Wang Bin followed Du Juan to her office. Du Juan immediately activated the Restriction in the room, then threw herself into Wang Bin's arms, her excitement evident.

Which woman wouldn't be happy when her man becomes a Golden Core cultivator?

The two were intimate for a while, but didn't do anything out of line.

"Aunt, has anything happened at home?"

Du Juan tidied her clothes, a smile on her face, and said:

"No, every six months, Huang Youcai, the captain of White Cloud City's guard team, comes to West Sea City. He delivers the Materials collected from White Cloud City to me, and then purchases some goods from the shop to take back.

Xiaoyue is already at Foundation Establishment second layer, and your vice-captain in White Cloud City named Chen Jun has also successfully undergone Foundation Establishment.

Moreover, last year I gave birth to your daughter, her nickname is Xiaoling, and both she and Xiaotian are at home now. I've arranged for two serving girls to look after them, and also..."

Du Juan told Wang Bin everything about the past two years in one go.

Relieved to know that everything was well at home, Wang Bin began to talk about serious matters.

"I successfully underwent Core Formation. The School assigned me a courtyard of ten mu in West Sea City, which can accommodate one Golden Core cultivator and four Foundation Establishment Cultivators for Cultivation. I want you and the children to move there. I still need to return to White Cloud City to oversee things."

"Ah! Aren't you moving together? There's only a Second-Grade Spiritual Vein in White Cloud City, which isn't enough for a Golden Core cultivator like you to Cultivate!"

Du Juan asked with some concern. They had just gotten together, and she didn't want to separate so soon.

"I have my own methods. I have eleven sets of insights on the process of Breakthrough to Golden Core cultivator here, you can take them and read them. My Breakthrough to Golden Core this time..."

Wang Bin told Du Juan all about the problems he encountered and the things he needed to prepare when he Breakthrough to Golden Core.

Except for the Mind Stabilizing Pearl, everything else could be bought, and now that he was in the Golden Core Realm, he had more freedom and could travel around. Four Seas City should be more prosperous than West Sea City.
