Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 92: Unable to Improve



Lian Xinyue glanced at the member that Yang Wei was secretly pointing at and she smirked.

“They were fighting over a spiritual treasure and were about to do a life and death battle until the sect elders from the Tyrant Lion Sect and Phoenix Sky Sect went over to stop them.” Lian Xinyue replied softly.

Yang Wei twitched his mouth slightly and wondered if everyone in the cultivation world is prone to fighting.

They knew the pagoda was about to appear and hidden inside could have valuables better than the spiritual treasure they’re fighting over yet still fight to the point of trying to kill each other.

Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue seemed to know what Yang Wei was thinking as she quickly explained their reason.

“Yang Wei, you entered the sect extremely late so you don’t know how many grudges the sect have against each other.” Lian Xinyue said and continued.

“Everyone here is simply using the spiritual treasures as an excuse to eliminate their enemy. After all, the spiritual treasures that are laying in the ground are basically worthless since they’re either destroyed or have limited time before decaying into dust.”

Yang Wei was flabbergasted as he could have never imagined the spiritual treasures were just an excuse to fight.

‘W-Wait, doesn’t that mean the two sects, Burning Sword Sect and Azure Sword Sect that were fighting against each other and disrupted our time back in the cave when we’re alone was because of a grudge?’ Yang Wei pondered inwardly before recalling Old Jiang’s words.

Yang Wei remembered Old Jiang from the Azure Sword Sect uttered that he was supposedly the number one swordsman and that he deserved the title before finishing Old Lang off.

“I see how it is now,” Yang Wei became enlightened about the farce between multiple sects as he thanked Lian Xinyue for explaining things to him.

Lian Xinyue held a haughty expression, almost like she was proud of being more knowledgeable than Yang Wei.

“Heh, you may have been lucky to be able to refine a Qi Rejuvenation pill in your third attempt but I’ll have you know one thing.” Lian Xinyue exclaimed as she walked closer and whispered softly.

“When I was being tested by Elder Jing, I managed to refine a pill in my first attempt.”

Yang Wei held a dumbfounded expression as he stared at Lian Xinyue in admiration.

Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue chuckled inwardly as she didn’t mention that the pill she refined was a beginner pill with its difficulty many times lower than the pill that Yang Wei had to refine.

‘Heh, Yang Wei doesn’t need to know this information since I didn’t really lie to him but merely spoke half the truth.’ Lian Xinyue exclaimed inwardly as she puffed her chest up to make Yang Wei see her in a different light.

However, she was soon disappointed as Yang Wei merely clapped his hand in admiration and complimented her without a hint of jealousy.

“Amazing Lian Xinyue, I didn’t know you actually had such talents before until now.” Yang Wei said softly.

‘S-Such talents before until now?’ Lian Xinyue repeated his words inwardly before realizing his double meaning.

Yang Wei meant to say that he always thought of her as nothing but a mere medicine helper for Elder Jing without any specific talent.

It was only until now that he acknowledged her for a bit. Lian Xinyue didn’t know why but for the first time in her life, she felt anger from others not recognizing her talent.

After all, she was the sect’s beauty and known as the most talented person in the sect yet Yang Wei who was only an outer disciple to be impressed only now was a slap to her face.

“Hmph, you can figure out the rest of the details yourself from now on, Yang Wei.” Lian Xinyue scoffed and turned around as she ignored Yang Wei.

Yang Wei was dumbfounded by her sudden attitude and wondered if she was in that time of the month for a woman.

Sometime later, Elder Jing cleared her throat slightly as she glanced at the disciples with a solemn expression.

“Attention everyone, the pagoda is confirmed to be appearing in less than an hour now so make sure to recover as much true qi as possible.”

Elder Jing exclaimed loudly and the disciples quickly nodded their heads before sitting down in a lotus position.

The Tyrant Lion Sect, Phoenix Sky Sect, and the other sects also had their disciples closing their eyes in a lotus position.

No one was willing to lose their chance of obtaining the pagoda inheritance over a grudge when they can always do that any time.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was merely sitting in a lotus position since he didn’t exhaust his true qi at all.

‘I would try to increase my cultivation base but it seems like I hit a wall or something since I can’t even increase it a little bit.’ Yang Wei sighed inwardly when his cultivation base seemed to be stuck in the 8th Qi Condensation realm without any improvement.

Even though he managed to enter the mental state and improved his mental strength tremendously, it still didn’t benefit his cultivation in any way like Elder Jing has mentioned before.

Thus, he could only smile bitterly as he watched others focus completely while he seemed like a good-for-nothing.

Elder Jing stopped her cultivation when she realized Yang Wei was staring at the sky with a dazed expression.

‘This Yang Wei is really unbelievable.’ Elder Jing cursed inwardly as she couldn’t believe his action in not taking advantage of this time.

Unable to handle how he seemed so carefree, Elder Jing sent a mental transmission to Yang Wei.

“Why aren’t you cultivating if your true qi is full?” Elder Jing asked as she glared fiercely at Yang Wei.

Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders as he explained his dilemma to Elder Jing.

“It’s not that I don’t want to cultivate but I sense zero improvements at all, almost like the spiritual qi around here doesn’t want to let me absorb them.”
