Chapter 153 Fire Spirit Root Upgraded to Earth Grade (Please Subscribe)

And besides cultivation resources...

Jingyu Group is also willing to provide Yang Feng with two sets of top-grade third-tier materials to enhance his spiritual root aptitude or body rank, as well as several Core Formation spiritual items that can increase the chances of a Foundation Establishment cultivator forming a Core by 20%.

These kinds of resources are more precious than cultivation resources for improving one's Dharma, body, and spirit.

Moreover, it holds immense appeal for the vast majority of cultivators who aspire to reach the Core Formation stage.

After all, once Foundation Establishment cultivators have the help of these resources, if they can achieve Core Formation in the future, their status and position in the Xia Kingdom will soar to new heights, rising several levels, and they will be able to live at least one or two hundred years longer.

Therefore, it goes without saying how important such a large amount of resources is to a Foundation Establishment cultivator who has good talent but no powerful background and wants to reach the Core Formation stage in the future.

Yang Feng was also somewhat tempted by the various resources offered by the other party's group.

However, when he learned that he would be at risk if he agreed to accept the investment and training from Jingyu Group.

The prospect of having to fulfill a host of obligations in the future, and having to generate returns for the Kyoto Group several times or even ten times the amount of his investment to repay them, made him frown.

"As expected, I knew there's no such thing as a free lunch."

"This Jingyu Group sees my future growth potential and wants to use a small investment to reap several times, or even ten times, the profits from me in the future. Their greed is no different from those wicked capitalists in my previous life..."

After reading the contract terms drafted by the other party, Yang Feng learned that if he received the resources provided by the other company and achieved the True Core stage in the future, he would need to join their group and work there for twenty years.

If they breach the contract prematurely, they will have to compensate Yang Feng with five times the initial investment.

Furthermore, if Yang Feng only achieves the False Core stage in the future, he will need to join their company and work for forty years. Moreover, if he breaches the contract prematurely, he will need to compensate them ten times the initial investment they made in Yang Feng.

As for those who fail to form their core, they will have to join their company and serve for at least sixty years to repay their initial investment.

Of course, their request to join their group did not affect Yang Feng's later appointment to a government position in Xia State.

In reality, many cultivators who reach the Core Formation stage hold positions in both government departments and large corporate groups.

However, in Yang Feng's view, such contract terms were simply an unfair contract.

However, for most Foundation Establishment cultivators without a background who aspire to reach the Core Formation stage in the future, even knowing that the contract is extremely harsh, most will ultimately choose to accept it in the face of the temptation to achieve Core Formation.

After all, these precious resources are controlled by these powerful forces, and most Foundation Establishment cultivators without a background would find it very difficult to obtain them on their own.

However, Yang Feng immediately lost interest when he saw how harsh the other party's contract terms were.

After all, he was different from those Foundation Establishment cultivators without any background.

He can earn money and resources through liver experience and drawing talismans, which he can use for his own cultivation.

Over the years, he has accumulated a considerable amount of wealth by drawing talismans and gaining experience from the system, receiving numerous rewards.

Therefore, he didn't care at all about the large sum of cultivation resources offered to him by Jingyu Group to improve his cultivation in the three aspects of law, body, and spirit.

As for the top-grade third-tier materials that can enhance spiritual root aptitude and body quality, and several spiritual items that can increase the chances of forming a core.

Yang Feng was somewhat tempted.

But in the future, he can also gradually gain experience from the system.

Therefore, when the other party tried to lure him with these items, Yang Feng remained unmoved.

Therefore, Yang Feng directly rejected the other party's offer and made it clear that the contract terms they had drafted were too harsh.

When Master Yunlan saw that Yang Feng had refused the resources they offered without hesitation, she was surprised.

Yang Feng also said that he is currently a mid-grade second-tier talisman maker, and he can earn money to support his cultivation by drawing talismans.

Moreover, he is only 72 years old now, and it is still a long way from breaking through to the Core Formation Realm. Although he wants to improve his spiritual root aptitude or the quality of his body with high-grade natural treasures and Core Formation spiritual objects.

But he would rather not have these resources, even if it meant earning several times or even ten times the profit for his company in the future to repay them.

This made Yunlan Zhenren realize that it was probably unrealistic for her company to use these resources to control Yang Feng.

So they had no choice but to concede that the contract terms offered by their company were still open to negotiation.

"Then I'll consider it once you can come up with a fairer contract."

When Yang Feng saw that Master Yunlan indicated that the contract terms could be changed, but the extent of the changes needed to be approved by the company's senior management, he didn't waste any more time arguing with the other party.

For Yang Feng, if he could obtain a few top-grade third-tier materials and Core Formation spiritual items from Jingyu Group at a relatively low cost to improve his spiritual root aptitude or body rank, he would be willing to do so.

Given his current situation, although he could gain experience and obtain Core Formation items from the system, the rewards the system would provide for him were highly uncertain.

Keep in mind that, up to now, he has only obtained one Core Formation spiritual item from the system.

Moreover, precious resources like Core Formation Spiritual Objects are basically controlled by a few powerful forces, making it quite difficult for ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators to obtain them from the outside world.

Therefore, even if he were to obtain some Core Formation spiritual items from the system in the future, it would be quite troublesome for him to take them out openly.

Therefore, if he could obtain a few Core Formation spiritual items from Jingyu Group at a relatively low cost, he would be willing to accept it.

This would not only save him a lot of trouble, but also give him greater security with the support of Jingyu Group.

Otherwise, if Yang Feng were to achieve the Golden Core stage without the support of any force and rely solely on his own abilities, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from some forces.

Especially since Yang Feng has no background, he might be targeted by some forces who want to uncover his secrets.

As for Yang Feng's desire to gain experience through grinding, he wanted to obtain top-grade Tier 3 materials from the system to improve his spiritual root aptitude or body rank.

That's also somewhat unrealistic at the moment.

After all, according to the system's reward rules, even if he grinds the experience points of a second-tier cultivation technique or spell, or a second-tier high-grade talisman to the maximum, he will still be rewarded.

The system will at most reward him with a mid-grade third-tier rare and precious material.

According to the system's reward rules, Yang Feng wanted to gain experience by grinding to obtain top-grade Tier 3 materials to improve his spiritual root aptitude or body rank.

One must cultivate a third-tier cultivation technique or spell to the point of mastery, or hone the skill of drawing a mid-grade third-tier talisman to perfection, to have any chance of obtaining it. However, if Yang Feng signs a contract with Jingyu Group, he can obtain several top-grade third-tier materials in advance to enhance his spiritual root aptitude or body rank.

To elevate one's spiritual root aptitude or physical body grade to the Earth grade level.

However, it also brings him many benefits.

This will not only significantly speed up his future cultivation, but also increase his chances of achieving the Golden Core stage.

However, given Yang Feng's personality, he was unwilling to sign a contract with Jingyu Group and pay several times the price in the future to obtain these resources.

Unless the other party makes some concessions that reduce the cost he will have to pay in the future, he would rather try to acquire these resources gradually through his own efforts.

After rejecting the investment offer from Jingyu Group.

In the following period, several large power groups and the Zhendan family sent people to try to invest in and win over Yang Feng.

One of the True Core families even tried to win over Yang Feng by offering him a marriage alliance and providing him with some Core Formation spiritual items and cultivation resources.

After all, even a True Core Realm family cannot guarantee that by expending a lot of resources, they can raise their offspring to become True Core Realm cultivators.

To achieve true alchemy, in addition to having sufficient resources, one's own talent and hard work are also very important.

Otherwise, if resources alone could produce a True Core Realm cultivator, then their Xia Kingdom wouldn't only have so few True Core Realm cultivators.

This is also why these powerful forces at the True Core level have taken a liking to Yang Feng.

After all, Yang Feng was able to raise his cultivation in the three aspects of law, body, and spirit to the late stage of Foundation Establishment and the late stage of the second tier at the age of 72.

In their view, Yang Feng has a great chance of reaching the True Core Realm in the future.

If they could invest in and win over Yang Feng in advance, it would be very beneficial for them in the future.

What these forces didn't expect was that they all offered Yang Feng tempting prices, but Yang Feng remained unmoved.

Furthermore, Yang Feng had no shortage of cultivation resources and demonstrated that even if he did not accept their assistance in the future, he was confident that he could obtain the spiritual material for Core Formation and achieve True Core.

This made the major forces that wanted to win him over realize that Yang Feng was not easily fooled or manipulated.

So, after a period of back-and-forth and bargaining, Yang Feng and several powerful groups and Zhendan families who wanted to win him over also tested each other's bottom lines.

Finally, Yang Feng proposed to the major forces that wanted to invest in and win him over that if they were willing to provide him with top-grade third-tier materials to improve his spiritual root aptitude or body rank, as well as Core Formation spiritual items.

Once he achieves true elixir cultivation, he is willing to join their group or family and serve for a certain number of years, depending on the value of the precious materials they provide.

If they default in advance, they will be paid up to three times the amount invested by their group or family.

As for failure to form a core, or forming a fake core, Yang Feng would at most accept compensation of five times their initial investment.

After all, precious resources like top-grade third-tier materials that can improve spiritual root aptitude or body rank are very attractive to Yang Feng.

If Yang Feng could obtain such precious resources in advance and raise his Five Elements Spiritual Root aptitude to the Earth Grade level sooner, it would greatly help him achieve the Golden Core stage in the future.

As for Core Formation resources, although he could obtain them from the system by gaining experience, he did not want to reveal his secret of being able to obtain such resources from the system to outsiders.

Therefore, he would not refuse if these powerful forces were willing to provide him with some spiritual items for Core Formation.

After some bargaining, one of the forces, called Furun Group, agreed to give Yang Feng a top-grade third-tier pill to enhance his fire-attribute spiritual root aptitude.

They requested that once Yang Feng achieved the True Core stage, he would help them complete a task within his capabilities.

Seeing that the other company's demands were not unreasonable, Yang Feng agreed to them.

After the two parties signed a contract, Furun Group gave Yang Feng a top-grade third-tier material to enhance his fire-attribute spiritual root aptitude.

"The third-grade top-quality Flame Soul Pill can improve a cultivator's fire attribute spiritual root aptitude. It is effective for cultivators whose fire attribute spiritual root affinity is below 80. The lower the cultivator's spiritual root affinity, the more obvious the improvement effect."

After receiving the Flame Soul Pill from Furun Group, Yang Feng glanced at the pill's description.

He then immediately requested a cultivation room at Furun Group and took the elixir.

As the pill was swallowed, Yang Feng felt a surge of intense energy flowing through his body, subtly altering his physique.

Just a moment later, Yang Feng felt that his body had become more attuned to the fire-attribute spiritual energy in the world.

Then, he subconsciously opened the system panel and saw that his fire-attribute spiritual root had increased by two points compared to before.

Afterwards, as time passed and Yang Feng fully digested the medicinal power of the Flame Soul Pill, he was astonished to find that his fire-attribute spiritual root had increased from fire 64 to fire 71.

"It wasn't easy. Over the years, I've consumed so many rare and precious herbs to enhance the quality of my spiritual roots. Finally, I've managed to elevate one of my spiritual roots to the Earth-grade level."

Yang Feng saw that the fire attribute spiritual root value displayed on the panel had reached 71, and then closed his eyes to feel the changes in himself again.

After discovering that his affinity for fire-attribute spiritual roots had increased to the Earth-grade level, his body's attraction to fire-attribute spiritual energy in the world had significantly increased.

At this moment, he even discovered that he didn't need to lift a finger; the fire-attribute spiritual energy in the world was actively moving towards him.

He then tried cultivating the "Five Elements Foundation Building Technique" for a while and found that after his fire-attribute spiritual root was upgraded to the earth-grade level, his cultivation speed also increased significantly.

Furthermore, when he tried to practice the fire-attribute spell Flame Spell, he discovered that the spell's power had also increased significantly.

In addition, he discovered that the experience points he gained from each practice of the Flame Spell were also greater than before.

"As expected, raising one's spiritual root aptitude to the Earth grade brings many benefits."

Yang Feng felt that after his fire spirit root was upgraded to the earth-grade level, his cultivation efficiency in all aspects increased significantly, which made him very satisfied.

In particular, when he thought that if a Foundation Establishment cultivator could raise the affinity of all five elements of their spiritual roots to the Earth grade before attempting to break through to the Core Formation realm, it would reduce the difficulty for the cultivator to achieve the Golden Core realm in the future.

He desperately wanted to find a way to raise all five elements of his spiritual root aptitude to the Earth grade as soon as possible.
