Chapter 135: Chapter 99: Scaring Your Son and Living Off a Woman
Beneath the veil of night, Ning Yuchan, clad in a light aquamarine gown with a green silk veil covering her face, stood with a straight posture--her curvaceous figure hinted at beneath the somewhat loose fabric of her dress.
The iron crutch, which normally marred her overall aesthetics, seemed far less intrusive in the cover of darkness,
making Ning Yuchan appear even more graceful.
Xu Jin’s gaze merely swept over Ning Yuchan’s iron crutch without daring to linger.
He understood this point.
But Xu Jin couldn’t help being curious, what exactly had happened to Ning Yuchan’s leg?
Once a cultivator reached the Seventh Layer of the Dining Dawn, their natural healing abilities became extremely powerful; unless a limb was completely severed, resulting in a stump, there would be no injury they couldn’t recover from.
Even if it had healed improperly and was crooked, breaking and re-growing it would suffice.
And wasn’t Ning Yuchan an expert of the Star Condensing Realm?
The fact that she continued to limp was a source of great curiosity for Xu Jin.
But he dared not ask.
Because Xu Jin was well aware that Ning Yuchan of the Star Condensing Realm couldn’t heal her own leg, and neither could the Mountain Master who was at least a Fifth Tier of the Gathering Battle Realm.
Therefore, Xu Jin was even less capable.
If one can’t heal, then it’s better not to ask; asking would only serve to twist the knife in Ning Yuchan’s heart.
According to his sister Jiang’er’s words, Ning Yuchan was, after all, just a twenty-three-year-old young lady.
"Teacher, what brings you here? If there was something you needed, you could have just called for me." Seeing Ning Yuchan at his door, Xu Jin quickly invited her in.
"What, can’t I come without a reason?"
Ning Yuchan retorted sharply as Xu Jin hurriedly laughed and said, "How could that be? If I’d known you were coming, I would have prepared some fruits and snacks in advance."
"Bah!"
Suddenly, Ning Yuchan frowned, "Your yard, why does it smell so bad?"
"Uh..." Xu Jin was greatly embarrassed; he hadn’t expected the foul odor from his recent Purification process to have not entirely dissipated.
Before Xu Jin could explain, Ning Yuchan’s bright eyes flashed as she suddenly asked, "Did you just... undergo Purification? It must be your first time tonight, right?"
Xu Jin nodded, "Yes, I tried swallowing two Transcendence Pills for cultivation, and unexpectedly underwent Purification."
The surprise in Ning Yuchan’s eyes mirrored that of Qi Shanye’s expression earlier.
To undergo Purification on one’s first attempt at cultivation was indeed an extraordinary talent...
Ning Yuchan remembered reaching her first Purification after two days of cultivation, and even the Mountain Master had called her a genius among geniuses. What, then, should one make of Xu Jin’s case?
"Here are six top-grade Transcendence Pills; keep them with you."
Ning Yuchan suddenly tossed over an elixir bottle, "After you complete three Purifications with ordinary Transcendence Pills, take one of these top-grade pills each morning and evening over three days. You should be able to achieve a fourth or even fifth Purification.
After you’ve used up these six top-grade Transcendence Pills, come find me.
Then I’ll perform Star Fusion Refining Body on you, which should enable you to achieve a fifth or even sixth Purification. By that time, when you attempt Star Casting, there’s a high likelihood you may form a top-grade Star Core," Ning Yuchan explained.
Xu Jin was quite surprised.
This matter, Qi had just spoken to him about it, but now Ning Yuchan had come, discussing the same issue and even having prepared the top-grade Transcendence Pills for him, as well as planning the Star Fusion Refining Body for him.
Ning Yuchan really did treat him as her own disciple.
She was truly kind to him.
Xu Jin wondered, in the future, how could he possibly repay Ning Yuchan?
Such profound kindness, if one were to ask for the price of top-grade Transcendence Pills and attempt to repay with silver, that would be unreliable, and even ungrateful.
Since he couldn’t ask the price, it was better to graciously accept.
When he had the capability in the future, he would find a way to repay her.
Subsequently, Ning Yuchan shared quite a bit about the Rank of Star Casting.
The ordinary disciples from various Taoist Institutes, including many Loose Cultivators from the Martial World, even if they could perform Star Casting, generally created only low-grade Star Cores.
In Jinshan Taoist Institute, only a portion of the disciples from the Middle and Inner Courts were able to form middle-grade Star Cores.
However, those who managed to form top-grade Star Cores were extremely rare.
For instance, if Jinshan Taoist Institute had one or two disciples achieving a top-grade Star Core in a year, that was already the limit; some years might even see none.
It was not only due to top-grade Transcendence Pills; even with the Purification achieved six times, reaching the Purity Body, the probability of forming a top-grade Star Core was at best fifty percent.
As for the probability of forming a Top-Grade Star Core, that was one in ten thousand.
Never had Jinshan Taoist Institute produced one; even in the National Taoist Institute or the various Star Halls, it would take several years, or even decades, to witness the emergence of a talent capable of forming a Top-Grade Star Core.
The difference between forming low-grade, middle-grade, top-grade, and Top-Grade Star Cores lied in the distinct starting points.
This gap in starting points was insurmountable before reaching the Gathering Battle Realm; even after reaching it, one could only make slight compensations.
If one assumes that from Star Casting to the Ninth Layer of Refining Star, every increase in one layer of Cultivation Level doubles the Star Power, then from Star Casting Realm to the Peak of Star Casting, and onto the Ninth Layer of Refining Star, the total Star Power multiplies by ten. This tenfold increase is based on the total amount of Star Power contained within the Star Core of Star Casting.
If the total Star Power of a low-grade Star Core is five, then the middle-grade is ten, the top-grade is fifteen, and the Top-Grade is twenty.
From Star Casting Realm to the Peak of Star Casting, the total Star Power according to the four ranks of Star Cores will become ten, twenty, thirty, and forty, respectively.
By the Ninth Layer of Refining Star, these four ranks of Star Cores will have total Star Powers of one hundred, two hundred, three hundred, and four hundred, respectively.
