Finally, Su Xiaojiu took out a book from her qiankun bag.
It was a Cultivation Technique, but it was obvious at a glance that this was definitely not a Cultivation Technique used by any Cultivation Sect; it was probably a civilian version of a Cultivation Technique.
These civilian versions of Cultivation Techniques were naturally not as good to Cultivate as Sect Cultivation Techniques, but no matter what, they should still be able to help with Cultivation.
If a Cultivator had good enough talent, Breakthrough to Spirit Nurturing and Soul Transformation shouldn't be a problem, but wanting to go further than that would be basically impossible.
"My dad said these things can help someone Cultivate to Qi Refining fifth or sixth level in a short time. Consider them your reward, and he also asked you to take good care of me."
"That's thoughtful," An Chen paused, then asked with a hint of confusion, "But, isn't he worried that I don't have an In-grade Spiritual Root and can't Cultivate?"
Hearing this, Su Xiaojiu waved her hand.
"Although I didn't tell him who you are, what your Spiritual Root is like, or where you are now, I did hint to him that you have an In-grade Spiritual Root, and that's how I managed to get these Cultivation resources!"
An Chen was suddenly choked.
"Is there a possibility that if you hadn't said anything, your dad might have given me a Spirit Enhancement Pill?"
"..."
Su Xiaojiu suddenly fell silent.
After thinking carefully, she nodded silently.
"Given my dad's character of repaying kindness and avenging grudges, he probably would, right?"
If the Spiritual Root was not In-grade, giving an artificial Spiritual Root should not be difficult for Su De.
An Chen also understood that Su De giving him resources to help him Cultivate was not just because An Chen helped him get those electric wheelchairs, as they didn't involve much technical skill.
Su De wanted him to have some self-preservation ability, so he could conveniently assist Su Xiaojiu in establishing herself on Earth.
Transcendents from Jiuzhou, below the Qi Refinement Stage, cannot control whether they Transmigrate or not. Only when they reach the Spirit Nurturing Stage or above, and Earth can no longer bear the power of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, can they freely choose whether to Transmigrate.
Only by suppressing their Realm below the Spirit Nurturing Stage will they Transmigrate.
Su Xiaojiu was still some distance from Spirit Nurturing, with a Qi Refining Peak in between.
During this time, Su Xiaojiu still needed An Chen's help and care.
After all, for Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator, Earth's technology was still very threatening, and it was normal to lose one's life if one was not careful.
At least in Jiuzhou, there were many such examples, and perhaps many people were even caught by Kunpeng.
Just like Zhang Youcai.
For the people of Jiuzhou, Earth was now a very terrifying place.
This was also why Su De himself couldn't come to Earth; otherwise, he might have come personally to take care of her.
So, was it too much to give An Chen an artificial Spiritual Root? Not at all.
"Then... should I try asking again?"
"Forget it."
An Chen covered his forehead and waved his hand.
Su Xiaojiu had already said everything; it would definitely be inappropriate to shamelessly ask again at this point.
Missed it is missed.
However, An Chen still couldn't help but wonder how much an artificial Spiritual Root would be worth.
At least in An Chen's opinion, even the worst artificial Spiritual Root would sell for at least seven figures.
This was an opportunity to Cultivate.
Plus, after stepping into Cultivation, one could also extend their lifespan...
Eight figures might even be desired by some...
An Chen felt that his concept of money might not be clear, because for the past ten-plus years, he had been struggling for a few yuan every day, saving fifty cents was a victory. Suddenly thinking of such a huge amount, An Chen even felt a bit lost.
An Chen suddenly gave a bitter laugh in his heart, feeling a wave of sadness.
An Chen did not stay long at Ye Xinning's house, quickly returning home with Su Xiaojiu.
Since today was Thursday, he still had tutoring for Zhou Xin Xin in the evening.
In fact, he no longer needed this job to supplement his household expenses, but having tutored Zhou Xin Xin for so long, he now felt a sense of not being able to let go of Zhou Xin Xin.
Zhou Xin Xin was like a half-sister in his eyes, and he was now following Zhou Xin Xin's learning progress. Zhou Xin Xin was not someone with great learning talent, so if he suddenly quit, he would genuinely worry about Zhou Xin Xin's studies.
As for the tutoring fee, he could discuss it with Zhou Limin and Zhao Jing, either reducing it a bit or not taking it at all.
Moreover, An Chen also wanted to know how Zhou Limin was doing now.
To that end, after An Chen and Su Xiaojiu finished dinner, they went downstairs to Zhou Xin Xin's house at a little past 7:30, listening at the door like thieves for a while, but heard nothing.
An Chen simply knocked on the door directly and waited quietly outside.
This time, it wasn't Zhao Jing who opened the door, but a smiling Zhou Limin.
"Xiao Chen, you're here? You're so early today?"
Zhou Limin smiled and welcomed An Chen into the house, and Zhao Jing also brought over a glass of water.
Zhao Jing also had a smile on her face.
An Chen glanced at Zhou Limin again out of the corner of his eye, finding him radiant and full of energy, not looking like he had been starved.
If he had really only brought two days' worth of food, then after seven days, he should have been starving, but his current appearance, while not indicating that he ate very well every day, at least showed that he was very healthy, and his face didn't show the sallow complexion of malnutrition.
"Uncle, are you doing well?"
An Chen asked tentatively.
"Good, thanks to that Kunpeng you told us about, it really helped a lot!"
Zhou Limin smiled and patted An Chen's shoulder.
"They helped you out of your predicament?"
An Chen was very curious.
On Earth, he had witnessed some of Kunpeng's methods, and precisely because of that, he tried to avoid contact with Kunpeng's people.
Kunpeng's people seemed to be very strong, and he didn't know if they were all composed of the first batch of Transcendents.
As for Jiuzhou...
Except for one trip down the mountain to Qingfeng City, he spent the rest of his time diligently Cultivating within the Qingfeng Sect.
An Chen found that his understanding of the outside world was limited to the tongshen jade talisman, but the content in this item was not entirely true; many situations were half-true, mixed with rumors, making them difficult to discern.
But no matter what, he had never heard of any activity from the Kunpeng organization in Jiuzhou.
"I'm out of trouble. The last time I received a message, I called Kunpeng to contact them. After they understood my situation, they told me to bring enough dry food for two days, and they would find me within two days. As it turned out, after I went there and woke up from a nap, they were already at my door!"
Zhou Limin spoke with a bit of excitement, a smile involuntarily appearing at the corner of his mouth. After taking a sip of water to moisten his throat, he continued:
"They took me from that area and sent me to a fabric and clothing store, asking me to help with odd jobs, saying it was their property... And! There was someone arranged to go in with me who is from your school!"
