Chapter 275: Cultivation methods of the demonic cultivator
He quickly put the bone banner back into the ring, and Charlotte came back to her senses.
"This must be the talisman of that demonic cultivator—truly eerie and unsettling!" Charlotte said, her face pale and covered in cold sweat. She let out a sigh of relief and remarked, "I didn't expect this talisman to be so powerful!"
"Yeah, it's quite impressive," Elijah wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"There are a few more talismans inside—one is a bell, another is a flag. They don't seem like good items. Should we take them out to inspect?"
"Better not. These talismans are too strange. If you haven't mastered the method of refining and controlling them, it's best not to handle them recklessly!" Charlotte advised.
Elijah nodded in agreement. "I'll check the other items."
Elijah's mind delved back into the ring. This time, he focused on items that did not clearly appear to be talismans.
Among them were several ceramic bottles that seemed to contain elixirs.
Elijah did not touch these either, fearing they might contain something like corpse poison or even more dangerous substances.
For a demonic cultivator, such items were quite normal.
He then examined other objects, including a pile of stones emitting a Chi aura that Elijah recognized. He took out one piece, and Charlotte's eyes immediately brightened.
"So rich in Chi!"
"Hmm, these must be Chi stones or spirit stones from the cultivation world," Elijah said, equally pleased.
"Are there many of these stones?"
"Yes, quite a lot—at least a thousand pieces!" Elijah replied.
"With these spirit stones, even if Chi is depleted in this world, we should be able to sustain our cultivation for some time!" Charlotte said, her excitement palpable.
"Exactly!" Elijah felt a bit of relief, as the presence of these spirit stones gave him some direction for future plans.
"I'll take a look at the other items!"
This time, Elijah worked quickly. The spirit stones disappeared from his hand, replaced by a tiny jade bamboo slip.
"What is this? What does it do?"
Cultivators develop their abilities more comprehensively, unlike awakened individuals who excel in only one aspect.
This is somewhat similar to Elijah and the others who practiced Body Refinement techniques.
However, cultivators in the Body Refinement stage do not possess abilities such as water or fire control, which is an advantage of awakened individuals.
But in the Chi Refinement stage, things change.
Although cultivators may not be as adept at using specific abilities as awakened individuals, they can master various spells, unlike the more singular focus of awakened abilities.
Examples include: Spring Breeze Technique, Rain Transformation Technique, and Metal Sword Technique.
The most important thing is that cultivators in the Chi Refinement stage can control talismans, draw runes, and use various powerful techniques, far surpassing what awakened individuals can do.
As for those in the Foundation Establishment stage and above, their abilities are truly god-like!
Elijah shared this knowledge with Charlotte before diving back into studying the jade slip's cultivation methods.
Time passed quickly, and when Elijah finally opened his eyes, the yacht was already docked at Azure Isle's pier. Fiona and the others had arrived and were waiting for him to wake up.
"We arrived early?" Elijah asked.
"Just recently," Fiona replied, glancing at the jade slip in Elijah's hand.
Daisy had already briefed Fiona on the trip's highlights, and seeing Elijah so engrossed in studying the jade slip gave Fiona an uneasy feeling.
"Well, let's head home. I have some things to discuss with everyone!" Elijah said, putting away the jade slip and leading the way off the yacht.
That evening, as the women gradually returned to the Azure Isle villa, Elijah and the others recounted the events of their trip.
When the women learned the truth about the zombie virus outbreak—caused by a demonic cultivator's self-detonated corpse pill—they were all astonished and shocked.
They were equally stunned by the explanation of the otherworldly descent and the speculation about ancient myths and legends.
However, when it was revealed that there was a way to eliminate their own zombie virus and remove the threat, they felt a great sense of relief.
But when the story turned to the mysterious old man's wish to take a disciple, the room fell silent.
Everyone had a premonition that something troubling was coming.
