After feeling that his injuries had healed sufficiently, he finally decided to guide his Spiritual Power back to his Dantian in the Purple Mansion, forming a vortex.
This ti, he dared not be careless, focusing all his attention and preparing to expel any stray energies at any mont. He did not want to experience that pain a second ti. However, this ti it was unexpectedly smooth, the Spiritual Power like a gentle lamb, obediently allowing Luo Chao to guide it into the Purple Mansion, swirling around the Dantian to form a vortex - a sign of stepping into the Qi Condensation Stage, the mark of a cultivator.
Luo Chao originally didn't have a Spirit Root, but with the help of Earth Core Milk and the little snake, he successfully beca a cultivator, with the Earth Core Milk being the main reason.
The millennial Earth Core Milk took thousands of years, absorbing the Essence of the Sun and Moon, forming with an intrinsic spirituality, naturally having earth-shattering effects. When Luo Chao first tried to control it into the Purple Mansion, it discovered that Luo Chao was an ordinary person without a Spirit Vein, therefore having no Purple Mansion, which Luo Chao was completely unaware of.
So it exploded, forcibly altering Luo Chao's constitution to give him the qualifications for cultivation, Purification. It was then that Luo Chao experienced unbearable pain. But he also discovered that his body couldn't contain such an amount of Spiritual Power, and it had no choice but to rampage inside him, looking for an outlet. At that critical mont, the little snake bit into Luo Chao's finger, trying to help share the Spiritual Qi, which aligned with the Earth Core Milk's actions, rushing into the little snake through Luo Chao's finger. Otherwise, with just the thin power of Luo Chao and the little snake, they couldn't have moved it at all.
After soothing the Spiritual Power within, Luo Chao gradually awoke, a genuinely joyful smile appearing on his blood-stained face, "I succeeded." He murmured, then burst into laughter, "Haha~, I succeeded, I beca a cultivator." Laughing, tears started streaming from the corners of his eyes. Ever since the deaths of Leopard and Yuan Fei, the emotions he repressed for so long finally erupted, tears flowing continuously, leaving clear trails on his blood-masked face.
n only cry when they reach the depths of sorrow.
"Just you wait, Charlemagne, I will make you wish for death." In this hidden cavern, he made a solemn vow to himself.
After bouts of laughter and tears, Luo Chao finally vented his pain.
Noticing the motionless little snake by his leg, he was shocked, quickly picking it up into his palm.
He already saw the two small puncture wounds on his finger, marks made by the little snake's bite. Instantly understanding, at the critical mont, it was the little snake that saved his life, but now it seed lifeless, no longer lively and agile as before.
Pressing his finger on the little snake's vital spot, he felt a strong heartbeat and noticed its body seed to have grown a bit larger, the scales more glittering and translucent, almost as if they were transparent.
Breathing a sigh of relief, it was probably just sleeping. Luo Chao carefully placed it into his close-fitting pocket, feeling that touch, a warmth arose in his heart.
He had only been with this little creature for a few hours, yet it risked its life to save him, making him feel deeply moved. From then on, the little snake was his most precious treasure.
He went to a pool in the stalactite cave to clean himself and was delighted to find so fish about the length of a palm. He couldn't na this type of fish, but its shape resembled that of a sardine.
Using a kind of high-tech fire source he carried, he lit so branches he found outside the cave. As he grilled the fish, the at was smooth and tasty, with a unique flavor that wasn't unpleasant. Of course, he could swallow anything, no matter how bad it tasted. In the past, he savored rats and cockroaches during missions. After eating a dozen or so fish, he finally patted his stomach with so satisfaction.
Taking out that sheet on the Taiqing Profound Talisman Chapter from his pocket, he started reading. This ti he was reading the Profound Talisman Chapter. He was greatly interested in these Immortal Techniques, and now he was half a cultivator himself, so he wanted to see if he could make any of them work.
After looking, he felt a bit disappointed. The spells ntioned could not be directly perford by a cultivator at the Qi Condensation Stage but required the use of talismans. However, as stated, talismans could only be drawn using Spiritual-Powered paper or Spirit Beast Hide.
In the past, those hidden Immortal Cultivation Sects had thods to create such Spiritual-Powered Talisman Paper, but now Luo Chao couldn't even be sure if these sects still have any remains or successors because he had just tried it. As soone who beca a cultivator, he couldn't feel even a sliver of Spiritual Power's existence in this world. Spiritual Power is fundantal to a cultivator; without it, there's no cultivator. So, Luo Chao might just be the only cultivator in this world.
The Profound Talisman Chapter also didn't provide thods for creating talisman paper because at their ti, such minor techniques were common knowledge, not even qualified to be recorded in the Taiqing Sect's Sect's Treasure Manual. Instead, so advanced Magical Artifact refining thods, and top-grade elixir recipes were noted.
Luo Chao did have Spirit Beast Hide, the little snake should count as a Spirit Beast, but he would never strip the little snake of its hide to make a talisman.
"It seems the idea of using talismans to show off has been dashed."
Since there was no way to make talismans, Luo Chao no longer felt frustrated. Where there is a will, there's a way, and eventually, a solution would be found.
He turned his gaze to the briefcase he had taken off when he was washing, his expression complex and inscrutable. To be honest, this briefcase was the very culprit behind the deaths of Leopard and Yuan Fei. Both the Opium and the Werewolf had targeted this case, making Luo Chao extrely curious about what it contained that could catch the interest of a monster like Charlemagne.
He picked up the briefcase and placed it in front of him. This case had followed him down a cliff and through rushing waters yet remained unscathed. It must be made with cutting-edge technology. Near the lock was a small glass lens, a fingerprint recognition area.
Of course, Luo Chao's fingerprints couldn't open the case, but he had once learned from a military expert how to open a safe with a fingerprint recognition system.
Luo Chao's fingers flew across the keyboard on the case, inputting a string of incomprehensible codes. The green-glowing glass lens flashed, and a cold female voice spoke: "Please enter your fingerprint."
Luo Chao placed his middle finger on it. "Please enter your fingerprint again."
Three tis consecutively, "Fingerprint password saved successfully." With a slight smile, Luo Chao directly sabotaged its system internally, restoring it to its original factory state, then set up the password again. This way, Luo Chao could open the case with his fingerprint.
