Chapter 400: Chapter 400: The Spendthrift

“Sit cross-legged in front of the Wordless Ancient Stele. If you have enough fortune, naturally, the power of the stele will come into motion, aiding you in cultivation,” the man in white robes spoke.

Fang Lin nodded, glanced at Zhao Shenkong, who was not far away, and then patted his Nine Palace Bag, releasing the Thousand-year-old Corpse Ginseng.

“I see daylight again!” As soon as the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng appeared, it shouted loudly. However, it was immediately knocked over by Fang Lin’s slap.

“Old Pickle, stop shouting. Protect me while I am cultivating. After it’s done, I will reward you with an ancient medicinal herb,” Fang Lin said.

The Thousand Year Corpse Ginseng stood upright, snorting disdainfully, “The great me won’t listen to others just for a mere ancient medicinal herb, unless there are three.”

Fang Lin laughed, “Alright, as long as you diligently protect me and don’t let anybody disturb me, I will indeed give you three ancient medicinal herbs.”

“Okay, will you keep your word?” the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng asked craftily.

“Of course, I will. Keep an eye on that man,” Fang Lin said, indicating Zhao Shenkong.

The Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng also stared at Zhao Shenkong, a look of disdain appearing on its face, “Leave it to me, if this fellow dares to move even slightly, I’ll cripple him.”

Watching from afar, Zhao Shenkong was dumbfounded. What’s that? A talking ginseng, complete with limbs and facial features?

Seeing the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng, the white-robed elder showed a wary expression and slightly distanced himself, appearing somewhat disgusted.

In the next moment, Fang Lin entrusted the rather unreliable Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng with the task of protecting him. Though this fellow is usually a little unreliable and is eccentric, it should take things seriously when lured by the reward of three ancient herbs.

Fang Lin closed his eyes and sat cross-legged beneath the Wordless Ancient Stele, leaving his mind completely at ease and starting to silently cultivate.

Meanwhile, the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng acted as a loyal guardian, sitting in front of Fang Lin. Its crafty small eyes stared at Zhao Shenkong as if warning if he dared to move, it would kill him.

Zhao Shenkong felt somewhat uneasy under the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng’s watch, feeling a sudden chill.

Indeed, anyone who was overseen by a ginseng, remarkably endowed with consciousness, would probably be on edge.

Time gradually passed unknowingly, and an eerie aura pervaded the Wordless Ancient Stele.

This aura was very faint; if one did not pay too much attention, it wouldn’t be noticed at all.

Sitting in front of the Wordless Ancient Stele, Fang Lin keenly observed that a cool aura was gradually seeping into him from the stele.

This feeling was very comfortable; Fang Lin’s whole body felt relaxed, so relaxed that he felt somewhat drowsy.

Fang Lin realized that he must seize the time to cultivate while having the Wordless Ancient Stele reacting to him. When else could be a better time?

Fang Lin patted his Nine Palace Bag and took out a gourd, which contained the Heavenly Blue Liquid, lost to him by Li Jianlong.

The Heavenly Blue Liquid was an extremely rare treasure and had a significant effect on cultivation. It was an invaluable item.

The entire Li family only possessed two gourds of Heavenly Blue Liquid, one of which fell into Fang Lin’s hands.

At this moment, Fang Lin decided to use the Heavenly Blue Liquid to make his cultivation more effective.

After all, opportunities were scarce. Not everyone had the chance to cultivate in front of this Wordless Ancient Stele. He had to seize this opportunity to advance his realm as much as possible.

If he could break through to the Heavenly Origin, becoming a Heavenly Origin expert, it would be the best outcome.

Of course, Fang Lin also knew this hope was quite slender. It was a great challenge for a Martial Artist to progress from Earth Element to Heavenly Origin, which was the first ascendance phase on the path of Martial Arts.

Once entering the Heavenly Origin realm, one could be considered a top-tier expert in the Lower Three Kingdoms. Moreover, one would possess the ability to fly freely in the sky, greatly enhancing their ability to stay alive.

However, to break through from Earth Element to Heavenly Origin wasn’t a typically huge hurdle. Out of ten Earth Element martial artists, nine are unable to touch the Heavenly Origin realm.

It was not because their strength was not enough, but due to insufficient talent. The Earth Element was their limit. Unless they had an enormous opportunity, breakthrough would be unlikely.

Fang Lin also wished to break through to the Heavenly Origin realm as soon as possible. In that case, he would have a greatly increased ability to defend himself. At least he wouldn’t have to be so apprehensive every time he left the Purple Mist Sect, fearing an attack from the Li Family or Hidden Kill Hall.

Of course, even if he became a Heavenly Origin expert, he wouldn’t be anything special in front of Hidden Kill Hall’s assassins. Those terrifying assassins of the Hidden Kill Hall were unparalleled in the Upper Three Countries. To a highly skilled assassin of the Hidden Kill Hall, a Heavenly Origin expert and an ant did not make much difference.

Furthermore, Fang Lin had made his own arrangements.

Although the Heavenly Origin realm was tempting, it wasn’t actually a good thing to break through too early.

Generally, when martial artists reach the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element, they can challenge the Heavenly Origin realm.

However, with the experience from his previous life, Fang Lin knew that after the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element, there was a special realm—the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element!

Yes, after the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element, apart from choosing to break through to the Heavenly Origin Realm, they could choose to step into the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element. This would allow them to accumulate more in the Earth Element Realm before making a lighter break.

Once they reached Grand Perfection in the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element and challenged the Heavenly Origin Realm, their prowess would be more than ten times stronger than the average Heavenly Origin expert after breaking through.

However, even in the era full of powerful people from Fang Lin’s previous life, the number of people who could step into the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element was minimal.

As far as Fang Lin knew, his father, Fang Qingye, had stepped into the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element. This allowed him to accumulate to his heart’s content, and it was why he had the strength to dominate his peers and was considered invincible.

Fang Lin thought, since he had the rare opportunity to reincarnate, not to mention Alchemy Tao, he naturally had to lay down the most solid foundation in Martial Arts, giving him an advantage other people did not have.

The Tenth Layer of the Earth Element was the realm Fang Lin intended to delve into. He had no hurry to enter the Heavenly Origin Realm. With his methods, there were many ways to step into the Heavenly Origin Realm.

However, he couldn’t miss the Tenth Layer of the Earth Element. He had to step into it. It would also be the best decision for his future.

With the Heavenly Blue Liquid in his hand, Fang Lin waited a while. He felt that he had adjusted himself to the perfect state and immediately poured a mouthful of the Heavenly Blue Liquid into his mouth.

Indeed, a mouthful, not a drop or two, a whole mouthful.

This scene caused the facial expression of Zhao Shenkong, who was not far off, to twitch abruptly. This was Heavenly Blue Liquid, a drop or two would usually be used, how could he gulp down a mouthful? He was akin to a wastrel among wastrels.

If the higher-ups in the Li Family, who considered the Heavenly Blue Liquid as the most precious treasure and were reluctant to use even a drop, knew that Fang Lin had gulped down a mouthful, they would probably be furious.

“Why are you still looking? If you keep looking, I’ll gouge out your eyeballs!” the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng glared at Zhao Shenkong, showing a felonious expression.
