<h4>Chapter 402: Progression to Reincarnation Realm</h4>
Trantor: jinzeffect
In the Luo n’s main hall, Patriarch Luo flipped his hand and three precious-looking spirit stones with fearsome spirit qi appeared in his hand.
“Young Hero Li, these three middle-grade spirit stones are produced by our Luo n’s spirit stone ore vein. We have only excavated a total of three and shall use it as our tribute. I will that Young Hero Li will not refuse.”
To be truthful, Patriarch Luo felt heartbroken. These were middle-grade spirit stones and each of them were worth at least 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. Three of these middle-grade spirit stones would mean a minimum value of 30,000 spirit stones, and it could easily be used to purchase three or four earth ss low-tier artifact armors. Furthermore, his Luo n’s vault only had over 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.
He didn’t merely offer three middle-grade spirit stones as repayment of favor, the most important reason was to build a good rtionship with Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen was only 20 over years old and already had such strength. How much more powerful would he be after ten years?
“Middle-grade spirit stones?” This was the first time Li Fuchen witnessed a middle-grade spirit stone.
ording to his knowledge, the spirit qi contained inside one middle-grade spirit stone was equivalent to hundreds of low-grade spirit stones. But the purity of the middle-grade spirit stones were several times purer than low-grade spirit stones. Using it to cultivate wasn’t just cutting the work in half, it was cutting the work down by a few times.
But middle-grade spirit stones were too precious and not even Battle Spirit Realm masters would willingly use them to cultivation. They would normally use a single middle-grade spirit stone when they were about to breakthrough.
Only Primary Sea Realm monarchs had no choice but to use middle-grade spirit stones.
Low-grade spirit stones had too many impurities for Primary Sea Realm monarchs and they would need a huge amount of time to refine the impurities, making it inconvenient for cultivation.
“With three middle-grade spirits stones and the Clear Spirit Fruit, I will surely be able to progress to the Reincarnation Realm and there will not be the problem of having an unstable foundation.” Li Fuchen thought in his heart.
Using elixirs to breakthrough would be able to save up a lot of spirit stones. The Reincarnation Elixir was only worth 500 low-grade spirit stones and a Rebirth Elixir was worth around 5000 low-grade spirit stones.
But after using the Reincarnation Elixir to breakthrough, it would eliminate the room for future growth.
The Rebirth Elixir might not seem to have side effects, but it would restrict Li Fuchen’s growth too. He didn’t wish to be stuck in the 1st level of Reincarnation Realm for a few years.
“Then Fuchen shall ept the goodwill.” Li Fuchen received the middle-grade spirit stones.
After losing Zhang Yun and Zhang Kun, it was the same as the Zhang n losing their backbone. How could they possibly contest against the Luo n?
It was fortunate that the Luo n didn’t eradicate them. After taking all the spirit stones, the Luo n didn’t touch anything else. But just because of this, the Zhang n had suddenly declined from a first-rate n into a third-rate n in the Rushing Current City. Let alone finding trouble with the Luo n, they even had difficulties protecting themselves.
The Zhang n’s spirit stones were much lesser than Li Fuchen had imagined. They were only left with 5000 low-grade spirit stones and it was obvious that they used too much low-grade spirit stones to hire the Reincarnation Realm assassin and the ck Mountain Old Devil.
Furthermore, the spirit stone ore vein that the Zhang n controlled would only be able to produce 1000 low-grade spirit stones a year.
The Luo n originally intended to offer Li Fuchen the 5000 low-grade spirit stones but was refused.
The Luo n had already gifted him three middle-grade spirit stones and it was already considerable. If Li Fuchen had taken these low-grade spirit stones, he would be overly greedy and he didn’t wish to be someone like that.
Inside a solitary courtyard within the Luo n, Li Fuchen opened up Zhang Yun and Zhang Kun’s storage bags.
The duo’s storage bags only had a few hundred low-grade spirit stones and some misceneous items that weren’t valuable.
The ck Mountain Old Devil’s storage bag had 5000 low-grade spirit stones.
If Li Fuchen’s conjecture was correct, these 5000 low-grade spirit stones were used as a deposit from the Zhang n to the ck Mountain Old Devil. It was a pity that the ck Mountain Old Devil wasn’t able to receive the rest of the payment.
“This trip is rather worth it. Not considering the three middle-grade spirit stones, I have already obtained over 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. After adding my own wealth, I already have a total of 60,000 low-grade spirit stones.”
60,000 low-grade spirit stones wasn’t a small sum. Not even high-level Reincarnation Realm martial artists would have that many low-grade spirit stones.
After all, Reincarnation Realm martial artists had a high consumption rate of low-grade spirit stones. The rest of the low-grade spirit stones would generally be used to purchase useful items like elixirs and weapons.
Besides, Reincarnation Realm martial artists required a lot of low-grade spirit stones. A regr 1st or 2nd level Reincarnation Realm martial artist would require at least one low-grade spirit stone every two to three days, making it over 100 low-grade spirit stones a year. If it was a 1st or 2nd level Reincarnation Realm martial artist that cultivated an earth ss cultivation technique, the requirement of low-grade spirit stones would increase to over a few hundred a year. It was already praiseworthy to be able to save up spirit stones unless one was lucky enough to obtain a huge quantity of low-grade spirit stones.
Li Fuchen was only at the Heaven Dipper Realm now. When his cultivation was at the Reincarnation Realm, his consumption of low-grade spirit stones would have a drastic increase. Of course, Li Fuchen was rather fortunate had basically had everything he required. Even if he progressed to the Reincarnation Realm, he wouldn’t need to consume much low-grade spirit stones within a short period of time.
“It is time to progress to the Reincarnation Realm.”
Initially, Li Fuchen wasn’t confident he could breakthrough to the Reincarnation Realm within a year.
But his 3-star bone frame had transformed into the 4-star zing fire bone frame, together with the Clear Spirit Fruit and three middle-grade spirit stones, Li Fuchen had 90% confidence in breaking through.
Li Fuchen sat cross-legged in the center of the courtyard and consumed the Clear Spirit Fruit. He held one middle-grade spirit stone in his hand and started to circte the Ardent Sun Divine Technique.
The breakthrough from Heaven Dipper Realm to the Reincarnation Realm was a giant obstacle and once the breakthrough was sessful, one’s lifespan would increase to 250 years.
The Clear Spirit Fruit was indeed worthy of its reputation. As the Clear Spirit Fruit was being refined, Li Fuchen felt a surge of clean spirit qi and for a moment, his connection with heaven and earth qi was closer by ten times. He could subtly sense the traces of thew of all living things in this world.

Three days passed very quickly and the Luo n had regained their serenity.
On this day, a boundless and zing qi presence rushed to the sky. Luo n’s defensive array involuntarily activated and a transparent dome enveloped the Luo n.
“Young Hero Li has broken through!” Luo Zhan got a shock and was immediately delighted.
Patriarch Luoughed and said, “With three middle-grade spirit stones and Young Hero Li’s talents, it is natural for him to progress into the Reincarnation Realm.”
The reason was giving three middle-grade spirit stones was Patriarch Luo’s intention to assist Li Fuchen.
In the solitary courtyard, Li Fuchen’s body was suspended in midair and it was releasing boundless zing sun-like qi waves. The qi waves was very intense and the intensity was more than two times aspared to before.
Li Fuchen was confident that even if he didn’t use his trump cards, he would be able to kill the ck Mountain Old Devil in a single sword move.
“And my vitality?”
After his cultivation entered the Reincarnation Realm, Li Fuchen could utilize more of his awareness and he realized that his vitality had increased by two times. It felt as though he had reincarnated.
Boom!
Right at this moment, the assistant dean’s silver vigor that was in Li Fuchen’s body had instantly vanished due to the drastic change of qi and blood.
With the seal of the silver vigor, Li Fuchen’s qi power and dragon elephant power had instantly activated.
The sound of an elephant’s trumpet echoed and a giant elephant shadow appeared out of nowhere. In the radius of a hundred meters, everything seemed to have solidified and immobilized. Not even the dust were moving in the air.
The Giant Elephant Spirit was even stronger than Li Fuchen’s qi presence.
(Note: Previously it was Giant Elephant Qi Soul, I changed it to Giant Elephant Spirit)
Of course, in terms of strength, Li Fuchen’s body refinement strength wasn’tparable to his qi cultivation strength now.
After all, the Metal Bone Fist was just a mystic ss high-tier body refinement fist art, while Li Fuchen’s Ardent Sun Divine Palm and Green Sun Sword Intent were both earth ss mid-tier martial arts.
In addition, the zing fire bone frame had an enhancement effect on Li Fuchen’s qi cultivation strength.
“With my current strength, even if I return to the East Unicorn Continent, I will at least be able to protect myself.”
With thebination of his qi cultivation and body refinement, Li Fuchen didn’t know what level had his strength reached.
But he was merely thinking about it.
The Evil King and others were too powerful. If he was to return now, it was the same as seeking death. He had to be at least 3rd or 4th level Reincarnation Realm before he could return.
“Congrattions to Young Hero Li for progressing to the Reincarnation Realm, it is worthy of celebrations.” Patriarch Luo, Luo Zhan, and others came to offer their congrattions.
Li Fuchen replied, “I have to thank Patriarch’s middle-grade spirit stones. In the future, if the Luo n encounters any danger, as long as it is within my capability, I will surely offer my assistance.”
“Many thanks, Young Hero Li.” Patriarch Luo and Luo Zhan were beaming with smiles. They had been waiting for this statement from Li Fuchen.
During the past few days, they had known from Luo Yan that Li Fuchen didn’t only have astounding strength. He was also an in-room cadet of the South Forest Martial Institution’s dean. His esteemed status wasn’t inferior to the young masters anddies from the marquis residence.
This was a thick and substantial thigh. If they didn’t hug it tightly, even if the Luo n’s ancestors were to revive, they would be angered to death.
“Su n’s n Head Su Hao has arrived.”
A voice echoed that caused the Luo n to go silent instantly.
The Su n was considered a sharp sword that was suspended above the Luo n’s head. It was unknown when it would descend.
As the city lord n, the Su n had established themselves in the Rushing Current City for more than a hundred years. No matter which first-rate ns in the Rushing Current City were in dispute, the Su n wouldn’t bother. But after the dispute, the benefits had to be offered to the Su n. The Luo n originally intended to discuss the benefits to offer the Su n after few days, they didn’t expect for the Su n toe so quickly.
Su Hao was around 50 Years old and his cultivation was at the impressive 4th level of Reincarnation Realm. The qi presence from his body wasn’t inferior to the ck Mountain Old Devil at all.
The people with higher social status in the Rushing Current City would know that Su Hao didn’t only cultivate the earth ss low-tier cultivation technique, he had also cultivated an earth ss low-tier martial art. It meant that Su Hao’s strength was much stronger than the ck Mountain Old Devil, but no one knew the difference.
“Wee n Head Su, apologies for not receiving you properly.” Luo Zhan quickly came over to wee.
Su Hao smiled insincerely and said, “Nobody Su here shall congratte the Luo n for eliminating the Zhang n. The Luo n must have quite the harvest, right?”
“You humble us…” Luo Zhanughed apologetically.
Su Hao spoke in a serious tone, “My Su n doesn’t care about the dispute between your Luo n and Zhang n. My objective this time is for Luo n to give up the newly discovered spirit stone ore vein and hand it over to my Su n to excavate. Of course, my Su n is willing to offer Luo n 10% of the spirit stones that are excavated.”
There were good and bad, inferior-grade spirit stone ore veins. The inferior-grade spirit stone ore vein that the Luo n discovered this time was undoubtedly a superior one. Su Hao had obtained the information that the Luo n had excavated a few middle-grade spirit stones from this ore vein. Normally, even after a regr spirit stone ore vein was cleaned out, there might not be any middle-grade spirit stones.
The Su n wasn’t really interested in the low-grade spirit stones in this ore vein. After all, no matter how superior the ore vein was, 1000 low-grade spirit stones was the limits of the yearly excavation. But middle-grade spirit stones were different. A single middle-grade spirit stone would be worth more than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. Even if they only excavated one middle-grade spirit stone a year, it would be a huge profit.
