Chapter 33: Cultivation Plan

Zhong Cang was unaware that he had become a part of Yan Lingdie's trial.

After returning home, he, like Yan Lingdie, was engaged in intense cultivation.

He felt immense pressure.

What Zhen Ji could think of, Zhong Cang could also think of. He knew that Yan Lingdie was not far from reaching the fourth level of Qi Refining, and in a short period of time, he would not be able to break through his own cultivation.

Once she advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining, the gap between them would be closed.

However, contrary to Zhen Ji's thoughts, Zhong Cang believed that he would not have any major breakthroughs in the next few years and could only watch as Yan Lingdie closed the gap.

But Zhong Cang believed that he had many points of breakthrough.

"My physical cultivation is growing rapidly. At this rate, in another half month, my physical strength will be on par with my spiritual power, and I will break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining. By then, my combat power will increase by at least double."

"As for my cultivation, it is true that I cannot break through in a short period of time. However, the proficiency of my Qi Consumption Technique has reached 800/3000. Currently, I can practice the Qi Consumption Technique 18 times a day, which is 540 times a month. In four months, the Qi Consumption Technique can advance to the fourth stage."

"If the Qi Consumption Technique advances to the fourth stage and gains a powerful characteristic, it is not impossible for my cultivation to increase in a short period of time."

Advancing the technique in four months is possible without any assistance. With items like laurel incense, bodhi beads, and enlightenment tea, the progress of Zhong Cang's Qi Consumption Technique can be accelerated, possibly advancing in three months or even one month.

However, this is clearly wishful thinking as he doesn't have any spirit stones to purchase these items.

"Perhaps I can take the initiative and find other customers. After all, I can't just rely on Yan Lingdie to take advantage of her..."

"It's a pity that the cultivation of Sword Heart is most effective for Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, which is also a sword technique. The instinctive stimulation of the body in Sword Heart state has some effect on cultivating Five Beasts Infusion Technique, but it has no connection to the body in Qi Consumption Technique and cannot enjoy the buff from Sword Heart."

Advancing the proficiency of the technique to the fourth stage in four months is a dream come true for most people, but Zhong Cang is somewhat dissatisfied.

Fortunately, he soon saw the progress of Ignorant Heart Sword Art and Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, which restored his joy.

As mentioned before, with the support of Sword Heart, Zhong Cang can gain 3-5 proficiency points with each cultivation session of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower.

...This is the effect at the beginner level.

After reaching the second stage of proficiency, the cultivation of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower becomes more difficult and requires higher comprehension. In theory, Zhong Cang can only gain 2-3 proficiency points with each cultivation session.

In fact, even with only one layer of Sword Heart activated, Zhong Cang can indeed only gain 2-3 proficiency points with each cultivation session.

But with the advancement of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, Zhong Cang can stack Sword Heart, increase his comprehension, and therefore, the progress of this technique's cultivation has not slowed down.

At the same time, the cultivation time and frequency of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower are synchronized with Ignorant Heart Sword Art. In the extreme state, he can cultivate it 24 times a day (12 hours).

"The middle value between 3 and 5 is 4. 24 multiplied by 4 is 96. In one day, the progress of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower can increase by about a hundred points."

This is an exaggerated progress. The proficiency limit of the second stage of this technique is only 3200 points, which means that in a little over a month, this newly advanced sword technique can advance again.

But what makes Zhong Cang even more excited is that Sword Heart of Ignorant Heart Sword Art can enhance Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower.

The characteristic of conveying meaning through sound and the stacking of Sword Heart can also enhance the cultivation of Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

Currently, before cultivating Ignorant Heart Sword Art, Zhong Cang always enters the state of Sword Heart.

Then he lightly plucks the Maple Flower, conveying meaning through sound, and stacks Sword Heart.

Double overlay, 1.5 times the effect of Sword Heart, making Zhong Cang's practice of Ignorant Heart Sword Art even more difficult, but he occasionally gains some insights.

"After practicing Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower once, I can gain 3 to 5 proficiency points. I'm not sure if Ignorant Heart Sword Art has any resistance to Sword Heart. Even with double overlay, I can only gain 1.5 times the effect, which is 1.5 proficiency points."

An increase of 0.5 each time, and in one day, I can gain an additional 12 proficiency points. The practice effect of Ignorant Heart Sword Art has also become 36 points per day.

With a proficiency limit of 3600 points, it will only take 100 days to reach perfection (due to previous accumulation, it now only takes about 80 days).

This growth rate is already quite fast.

But in the past, with the presence of Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, Zhong Cang was not satisfied with the progress of Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

Fortunately, the advanced Sword Melody, if nothing unexpected happens, can allow Zhong Cang to overlay Sword Heart twice.

With his inherent overlay, he can enjoy the buff bonus of the triple Sword Heart during practice. At that time, his practice speed will once again increase significantly.

"Half a month later, my physical cultivation will advance, and one month later, Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower will advance. The advanced Sword Melody can accelerate the growth of Ignorant Heart Sword Art. If everything goes well, after another month and a half, my Ignorant Heart Sword Art will also advance to the third realm, bringing me new abilities..."

Thinking about the next two to three months, Zhong Cang may not be able to increase his cultivation, but his strength will greatly surpass, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

After planning the next two to three months of practice progress, Zhong Cang just wanted to calmly cultivate.

However, he wanted to be calm, but an unexpected event happened to Zhong Cang first.

And this time, the unexpected event was not brought by Yan Lingdie, but was related to his uncle's family.

What made Zhong Cang laugh and cry was that this unexpected event came from his uncle's good intentions.

...For Zhong Cang, Zhong Kangping did not just give him a job and then ignore him.

After only three days of work on Zhong Cang's side, he found his good friend, who happened to be the father of You Tao, and inquired about Zhong Cang's work situation.

There is no doubt that at that time, Zhong Cang's work was difficult to explain.

Realizing this, he immediately brought his daughter, Zhong Yingying, and asked her to persuade her friend to go to Zhong Cang's place to play and help him.

It took several days, but he convinced Zhong Yingying.

As for why Zhong Yingying came after nearly a month, it was not because she promised and then delayed because she disliked Zhong Cang.

It was because she couldn't make the decision.

Growing up in the Cloud Firmament Sect, Zhong Yingying had many friends.

But most of her friends' families were at the Qi Refining stage, so even if they came to the training ground, they would spend time looking for free sparring partners in the large training ground.

Or a few close friends would come together and practice with each other.

Such people hardly ever spend money to find sparring partners at the training ground, so they are not Zhong Cang's customers.

Zhong Kangping asked Zhong Yingying to find those young ladies from prestigious families.

With her cleverness and the fact that Zhong Kangping was ultimately at the ninth level of Qi Refining, with a chance to break through to Foundation Building, Zhong Yingying had some connections with those young ladies.

However, in that circle, she was just a green leaf that set off the red flowers, and her status was slightly higher than that of servants and maids.

Naturally, she couldn't lead the actions of others.

It took a month to find opportunities and secretly guide them before she managed to attract the interest of the cultivators from the prestigious families that she had pleased.
