I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 28



Chapter 28

Mu Qiqi followed Lu Yuan all the way to the depths of his confinement room.

Generally speaking, the confinement rooms in the back mountain were not big.

However, Lu Yuan seemed to be prepared to stay here for a long time.

Therefore, he expanded the original confinement room to about three times its original size.

Although this was borderline destroying the public property of the sect, in the rules of the Qingyun Sect, there was indeed no rule that forbade disciples from expanding their residences.

Thus, Lu Yuan had once again successfully exploited a loophole in the Qingyun Sect’s rules.

Under Lu Yuan’s lead, the two of them quickly arrived at a place called the “laboratory”.

This was the first time Mu Qiqi had heard of the term “laboratory”.

Thinking about it carefully, this should be the place where Lu Yuan experimented with all sorts of divine abilities and magic items. Hence, the place was given such a name.

She wanted to see if this junior brother of hers could take out something that would interest her.

If it was just a puppet like the ones outside, it would not be able to move her.

As a transmigrator, Lu Yuan naturally knew that if he took out something common in the celestial cultivation world, he would undoubtedly be unable to pique the interest of this fair, rich, and beautiful lady who had grown up with a golden spoon in her mouth.

Therefore, he had to take out something novel that didn’t exist in the cultivation world.

This was the only way to pique the Qingyun Sect’s princess’s curiosity.

Lu Yuan did have such a thing.

“Senior Sister. please take a look …”

He walked to an item and removed the white cloth covering it.

As the white cloth fell, a unique-looking steel object appeared in front of Mu Qiqi.

Although it looked like a spear, its front end was not sharp. Instead, there were many hollow steel pipes.

She didn’t know what this thing was used for, but there was one thing that Mu Qiqi was sure of, and that was that she didn’t sense any spiritual energy from it. It seemed to be a mechanism.

Mu Qiqi felt a little bored at the thought of this.

If it was just a mechanism, Mu Qiqi had seen many of them in the Celestial Treasure Pavilion when she was young.

“Junior brother, this thing of yours doesn’t seem to be able to pique my interest.”

“Senior sister, don’t be anxious. Let me introduce you to the use of this mechanism called the Gatling gun. Please follow me.”

Following this, the two walked through a passage and came to an open space where there were many wooden stakes.

Lu Yuan held the Gatling gun and said with a smile, “Senior sister, watch carefully.”

He took out hundreds of Qi Cultivation Stage green flame pellets from his storage bag and loaded them into the Gatling gun.

Then, he pulled the trigger.

Thud, thud, thud…

The sounds of mechanisms spinning and green flames appeared in the arena.

The three wooden stakes 100 meters away were quickly shattered by the concentrated small green flame fireballs.

Mu Qiqi’s mouth hung when she saw this.

Wow, this mechanism seems really interesting!

“Give it to me, give it to me, let me play too!”

Without waiting for Lu Yuan to reject, Mu Qiqi snatched the Gatling gun from his hands.

After Lu Yuan’s simple teaching, Mu Qiqi quickly grasped how to use the Gatling gun.

The power of the green flame pellets shot out by the Gatling gun was only around level 5 of the Qi Cultivation Stage.

In Mu Qiqi’s eyes, it was no different from a toy.

That being said, she had to admit that it was really fun!

For a moment, Mu Qiqi seemed to have transformed into a missy character in a mobile game as she started to hit the wooden stakes with her Gatling gun.

After she used up all the bullets in the Gatling gun, Mu Qiqi said, “Junior Brother Lu, this thing of yours is indeed interesting. How about selling it to me?”

“This… Senior sister, I have spent a lot of effort on this mechanism. I wonder if you…”

Mu Qiqi threw her storage bag to Lu Yuan and said very generously, “In there are all things I don’t have a use for. Take whatever you like. I’m very happy today!”

They were both cultivators, so there was no need to beat around the bush. She understood his feigned reservedness and he understand her inhumane wealth! She had nothing but spiritual stones!

In the face of Mu Qiqi’s overbearing action of throwing her storage bag at him again, Lu Yuan was no longer as bashful as he was at the beginning. He immediately started to rummage through the storage bag.

Not long after, he found two things that he wanted.

One was a divine ability called the “Aura Concealment Technique”. After cultivating it, it could conceal one’s aura.

The other was called “Gilded Sand”, which was a special earth-type divine ability similar to the Green Flame Technique.

Other than these two items, what was left in the storage bag were only a few mid-grade and low-grade magic items.

Lu Yuan was not clear about the use of these magic items, but he was not interested in them either.

After all, things that he was not familiar with would not be able to play their role in his hands.

In the end, Lu Yuan took a high-grade spiritual stone, as well as the two divine abilities, the “Aura Concealment Technique” and “Gilded Sand”.

“Senior Sister, I want these three things.”

Seeing that Lu Yuan only took one high-grade spiritual stone, Mu Qiqi was very surprised.

This was because she had specially placed three high-grade spiritual stones in her storage bag.

Lu Yuan could actually take them all.

Even though he was tempted by these three spiritual stones, Lu Yuan knew that all the gifts given by fate were actually priced.

He had to remember not to be greedy.

Although Mu Qiqi was a fair, rich, and beautiful lady, one should not think that Lu Yuan could treat her as a spendthrift.

Lu Yuan had reason to believe that once he took too many things, Mu Qiqi would be able to use this to control him.

After all, he had taken advantage of her.

The price he had asked for now was just right!

With this, Mu Qiqi would be unable to make any unreasonable requests.

Seeing Lu Yuan’s restraint, Mu Qiqi’s gaze toward him became even more curious.

To be unmoved by three high-grade spiritual stones, Junior Brother Lu’s state of mind was pretty good.

Although she still wanted to play with this interesting junior brother of hers, Mu Qiqi had something to do at this moment.

As such, she said her farewells, “Junior brother, since you’ve already chosen what you want, I’ll take this Gatling gun. By the way, can your Gatling gun only shoot those green flame pellets?”

Lu Yuan thought for a while and said, “Not really, it can be replaced with other pellets… It’s just that the mechanism will have to be adjusted. I’m not sure how effective it will be then.”

“I understand. I still have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first. Junior brother, you should cultivate well. I’ll come and play with you again after a while.”

After saying that, Mu Qiqi immediately flew toward the center of the sect on her flying sword.

Looking at the direction where Mu Qiqi left, Lu Yuan could roughly guess the reason why she was willing to give him a high-grade spiritual stone for the Gatling gun.

These simple mechanisms couldn’t pose a threat to Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators but would be of great help to Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators.

Mu Qiqi was probably preparing to show it to the sect leader.

She wanted to see if there was any way to improve the mechanism and turn it into a special weapon suitable for most Qi Cultivation Stage disciples.

After all, the current Gatling gun could only use Lu Yuan’s green flame pellets as ammunition.

Although there were others in the Qingyun Sect who knew the Green Flame Technique, Lu Yuan was the only one who knew both the Green Flame Technique and pill refinement.

If it was not improved, the Gatling gun could not be mass-produced.

As for whether the mass production of the Gatling guns would have a huge impact, or even trigger an industrial revolution or something like that…

Regarding this, Lu Yuan was not worried at all.

Don’t forget, this was a world of celestial cultivation.

In this world, technology could only be considered unorthodox.

The world was about celestial cultivation, not science!

Although he had created a special firearm similar to the Gatling gun, Lu Yuan had no intention of developing technology in the celestial cultivation world.

After all, even if he developed advanced technologies like intercontinental missiles, they might not be as useful as the flying sword of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

Not to mention that there was still the Apotheosis Stage above the Nascent Soul Stage and the Nascent Fusion Stage above that.

As for those big shots who had ascended, there was no need to mention them.

Even a nuclear bomb might not be able to kill a celestial who had ascended.

Besides, could he achieve longevity by climbing the technology tree?

Lu Yuan didn’t want to have anything to do with mechanical ascension. He wanted to ascend with his physical body!

The reason why he had created mechanisms like the Gatling gun previously was, on the one hand, to prepare more means for himself to ensure that he would still have a certain combat power in the case of spiritual energy exhaustion.

The other reason was to increase his skill proficiency.

[Common Skills Interface]

[Support Skills Interface]

[Metaphysical Pill Refinement Technique (level 9): 8265/9000]

[Weapon Refinement Technique (level 9): 850/900]

To create mechanisms, puppets, and other metal objects, one needed to know how to smelt, temper, shape, and others.

During this process, Lu Yuan had to use the five elements’ manipulation techniques.

With this, he had been able to quickly increase his proficiency in these skills.

Having more skills was never a burden. The reason why Lu Yuan worked so hard to create the puppets was to build up another support skill for the future.

That’s right, other than pill refinement, Lu Yuan was also prepared to learn weapon refinement!

The so-called well-balanced development should not only be reflected in his attributes, but also his development direction!

Only by mastering all kinds of life skills would Lu Yuan have the confidence to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations!

How could others’ magic items be as useful as the ones he made himself?

Pill refining, weapon refining, and even the arrays and talismans…

Only children had to make a choice. As an adult, Lu Yuan wanted them all!
