Chapter 42 - 42: Heart’s Test (Extra Publication, Please Follow!) !



“He’s a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Ailao Mountain!”

“This time, he came to The Great River District to inspect and repair the status of The Great River’s variety of Spirit Residences. After all, The Great River was originally designed and built by Ailao Mountain for the Yu Ding Sword Sect.” “Not only that, but the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion also plans to spend a considerable amount of money to have him redesign and construct new landmark buildings.”

Listening to Gu Caiyi talk about this, Luo Chen felt a skip in his heartbeat.

Damn, this guy is a construction contractor!

No wonder he’s so rich, he carelessly tosses around low-ranked elixirs and magic tools.

But no matter how rich you are, it’s not the way to blow Spirit Stones like this!

Faced with Luo Chen’s confusion, Gu Caiyi considered for a while and tentatively said, “Does he have a crush on me?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Caiyi’s small mouth slightly gaped open, and she gripped Luo Chen’s arm tightly.

“My Great Dao path looks promising now!”

Luo Chen rolled his eyes, “Gold-digging is disgraceful, you know!”

Gold-digging?

Being an Immortal Cultivator, Gu Caiyi instantly grasped the meaning of the word.

She punched Luo Chen hard, thought about it carefully, then murmured to herself, “I heard that Fei Bowen is a consort, he already has a Dao companion. And his Dao companion happens to be the granddaughter of a Golden Core Cultivator from Ailao Mountain. I don’t think he dares to keep a concubine.” So he’s a kept husband and a golden boy?

She gave a light “hmm”, thought deeply about it, and sighed.

“Forget it, this type of person is someone I can’t afford to provoke. Even if he likes me, I can’t handle his Dao companion.”

“Also, it’s not what I wish for.”

After speaking, she prepared to leave.

Luo Chen called after her from behind, “Remember to buy me five hundred jade bottles from the Fortune District when you come back tomorrow. Here’s the style I want, and I’ll give you the Spirit Stones later.”

Gu Caiyi flapped her hand without looking back.

Watching her leave, Luo Chen sighed and returned to the Pill Room.

“Failed again, why is this afternoon’s success rate so low.”

“Is two furnaces a day still too much?”

Luo Chen, with a frustrated expression, looked at a pile of discarded pill remnants, feeling desolate.

One failure meant that five Spirit Stones had gone down the drain.

But he was certain that he did his best!

He cleaned the Pill Furnace, tidied the Pill Room.

After practicing techniques in the room several times, Luo Chen cleaned up briefly and went to bed.

He swallowed the few remaining Qi Nurturing Pills and circled the Longevity Technique.

He felt that it might be because his cultivation level was too low, leading to his afternoon success rate being far lower than the morning’s.

As a result, he was a bit urgent during practice.

With his eyes tightly shut and his breathing following a unique rhythm, it seemed to be somewhat heavier than usual.

“When will these long days come to an end!”

“Gu Caiyi is so lucky, pills and magic tools are delivered to her, and yet I have to earn them myself.”

“Did she really catch the attention of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator? Actually, she’s quite pretty. Although her face is not as delicate as Lady Xiangxiang, her figure is really amazing.”

“Why can’t I, Luo Chen, possess such a woman?”

“Hehe, does a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refinement deserve such beauty? Unless I flee to the mortal world.”

“But can I, with Five Spirit Root Talent, truly establish a foundation?”

“I’ve worked so hard, and if it ends up in vain, wouldn’t I have wasted my prime.”

“Maybe I should relax a little and not be so hard on myself.”

“Perhaps there will be another chance to traverse. Then, I could be born a Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator, with a pair of powerful parents, hehe…”

A whiff of faint fragrance, seemingly there yet not quite, floated into his nostrils and penetrated his soul.

“No, what on earth was I thinking!”

Suddenly!

Luo Chen opened his eyes and a suppressed feeling welled up in his chest.

Whoosh!

A mouthful of fresh blood was spat onto the floor tiles.

He gazed blankly at the glaring bloodstain, and a word inexplicably jumped into Luo Chen’s mind.

“Heart’s Test”

A somewhat unfamiliar yet, incredibly fitting term.

Throughout his practice, he had generated many negative emotions for no reason.

Those thoughts, during his activation of the Longevity Technique, virtually made the Spirit Qi in his Dantian boil.

But Heart’s Test, such an exalted term, shouldn’t it occur in a Golden Core Ascendant Master or a Nascent Soul True Master?

He is a mere low-rank Qi Refinement Cultivator, so what merit does he possess to encounter such a thing?

In his bewilderment, Luo Chen began to actively sort out his emotions, recalling what just transpired.

Gradually, he had a touch of enlightenment.

“Perhaps it was because I changed my Pill Refinement environment recently, which caused excessive fatigue.”

“It could also be possible that the success rate has failed to meet the target steadily, resulting in serious cost depletion, causing me to be overly anxious.”

“The provocation from Caiyi during this period might also be a slight incentive.”

Luo Chen pondered a lot, even recalling the huge changes in his outlook and living habits before and after his transmigration, which had piled up many negative emotions in him.

It’s just that due to the previous busyness, he temporarily suppressed them.

In the past few days, he became slightly relaxed, and they gradually released.

“If I didn’t wake up timely just now, I’m afraid I would have fallen into demonic deviation and would have been slain.”

Recalling the sensation of rampant Spirit Qi coursing through his meridians, Luo Chen felt a chill of terror.

“Fortunately, the Moonlight Grass saved my life.”

When his gaze fell on the snow-white Crescent Grass plant at the head of his bed, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

The Moonlight Grass has the effect of calming the mind and stabilizing the soul; the more aged it is, the better its effect would be.

Rumors say that a thousand-year-old Moonlight Grass even aids Nascent Soul True Masters in their cultivation.

Luo Chen doesn’t have a thousand-year-old Moonlight Grass, but he’s merely at the Middle Stage of Qi Refinement.

Just now, it was precisely the fragrance emitted by this jar of Moonlight Grass that startled him awake, hence saving his life.

He shook his head and laughed — he inadvertently owed a favor to Fu Xiuxiu.

However, if he tells someone that he encountered the Heart’s Test during the Qi Refinement stage, I’m afraid no one would believe it!

After freshening up, Luo Chen walked out of his house.

The night was deep and still, all was silent.

Sitting on that petite child version of a swing, Luo Chen looked up at the starry sky.

“These are merely a few pitfalls on the path to Longevity.”

“So what if I possess Five Spirit Roots, as long as there are enough resources, even a pig can become an immortal cultivator, why should I belittle myself.” “Strive, fight, never rest until death!”

Under the starry sky, though a man is as humble as dust, his heart shines like a bright star.

The next day, mundane matters continued as usual.

Luo Chen had already become accustomed to them. Especially after experiencing the Heart’s Test last night, his mentality was even more peaceful.

Even though he failed again in the morning, he didn’t rush to refine the second Allure Pill in the afternoon.

“Lift!”

With a Spiritual Secret hand seal, he remotely controlled the furnace lid, still warm from the Pill Refinement, with Attraction Technique, slowly lifting it.

A familiar peculiar fragrance scurried into his nostrils.

Luo Chen smiled satisfied.

It was a success!

Unlike the Spirit Iron Pot, the elixir that came out of the Pill Refining Furnace could be congealed into form under the control of the array.

Therefore, Luo Chen directly used a jade bottle to collect the ten Allure Pills inside.

During the collection process, he rubbed his temple.

Previously, every afternoon when refining pills, he would always feel a lack of energy towards the end stages.

But today, it seemed like he didn’t have that feeling?

Also, it seemed like his mental strength has increased.

About twice as much.

“Is it a gain after overcoming the demonic obstacle last night?”

Luo Chen was lost in thought.

In legends, during the tribulation period for high-rank cultivators, in addition to the external Thunder Tribulation, they also face the internal Heart’s Test.

Whether it’s obsession, or demonic obstacles, there are also celestial demons from other realms stimulating people’s hearts, and so on.

As long as high-rank cultivators survive the internal Heart’s Test, they will reap unexpected benefits.

Luo Chen didn’t consider himself at that level, but others wouldn’t meet the Heart’s Test during the Qi Refinement stage.

Thus, this inference seemed quite probable.

This naturally was a good thing. At least Luo Chen had more confidence in refining two batches of Allure Pills a day.

Moreover, he had a feeling that this experience might bring unexpected benefits in his future cultivation process..
