BXBX NOVEL Chapter 10: Spiritual Bones
In fact, more cultivators are born without a Spiritual Weapon, and those from birth do not have Spiritual Energy in the body they have to rely on obtaining an External Spiritual Weapon later on to cultivate.
That means that, of course, a normal person can become a cultivator as long as there is an External Spiritual Weapon that has compatibility with that person. But, to obtain an External Spiritual Weapon requires paying a lot of money, as these are not cheap at all.
That is why Tang Yin is interested in the prize of this mission. To obtain a good Spiritual Weapon that is compatible with you is a joy because you can cultivate much better and faster, building a solid foundation.
But well, it\'s not important now. The truth is that Huang Feifei was born with a spiritual weapon, this gives her spiritual energy from the beginning, so her future potential should be greater, but...
Her Ninth Level of the Realm Spiritual Strengthening Body at the age of 20 shows that she is not as talented as others would think or that there is a problem with her. At this age, by the standards of her city, being at this level is too pitiful, let alone the standards of the entire empire.
To give an example, her peers in the city who are the same age as her are all already above the fourth level of the second realm, the Spiritual Entry Realm.
She as a cultivator and a person who loves cultivation, always wanted to enter the Imperial Academy, but to enter is to meet a minimum requirement of being at the First Level of the Spiritual Entry Realm, which she does not meet.
If she could obtain the Spirit Bone corresponding to her current level, she should move into that Realm before long but she would still be very limited by the fact that she cannot use spiritual energy, and even if she could solve that, she is still far behind her peers, despite being born with a spiritual weapon.
Even if she manages to get into the Academy at this point, she can only be there for five years, and it\'s hard for her to excel in that time to reach incredible heights.
Well, for now, one of her problems and the main one, she already knows how to solve it or, at least, she wants to hold on to that hope that Tang Yin gave her, so she was hopeful.
As long as she could use spiritual energy anything could be possible for her, she thought.
Her current plan is to get the Spiritual Bone, sell some Bamboos to get the 1,000 gold, and then go to the Imperial City, to try to get into the Academy.
Switching to a personal issue of hers and the current situation, Huang Feifei is the daughter of two merchants. They are not rich, but they are not poor either. They do trade all over this Empire and in a neighboring empire.
But because of her parents\' work, they have a rather powerful enemy in the city that has been pressuring them, and that was what caused her to have to go and get those bamboo because her family needed that money to be able to get out of this pressure.
After she had told him a little about herself and her family, she told him more various things along the way, and they talked about several different things.
--"Have you already thought about where to get the Spirit Bone?" Tang Yin asked, and she shook her head.
--"I can\'t get it on my own because I\'m not strong enough, so I can\'t go to a Great Forest. I must ask the Divine Sun Hall for help, they get some spiritual bones in exchange for money and since they have several nearby Forests to manage, it makes it easier for them." She said, and Tang Yin nodded.
A Spiritual Bone is too important in cultivation. Without it, one cannot advance.
Once one reaches the Ninth Level of each Realm, if one wants to break through to the Tenth Level needs to obtain a Spiritual Bone. But there are two types of Spiritual Bones: Main Spiritual Bone and Collection Spiritual Bone.
Both have different functions, and the Main Bones, almost only one can be obtained per Cultivation Realm, and can be obtained only when entering the Ninth Level of the Cultivation Realm the person in question is in.
But the Spiritual Collection Bones, can be obtained several per Cultivation Realm, and you can get them at Level 1 or you can get them at Level 10. Moreover, if you want you don\'t need to get them, and you can leave them for later. Although, the latter is not recommended.
Well, the thing is, if you want to go to Level 10 of a Realm, you need to get a Main Spirit Bone after that you will automatically advance to Level 10 or you can even go to the next Realm if the Bone is good enough.
To obtain a Spirit Bone, you need to do is to kill a Spirit Beast within a Cultivation Realm or age range that corresponds to the Realm you are in.
For example, Huang Feifei can currently only get a Spirit Bone from a Spirit Beast of between 1 and 500 years of cultivation. These, translated to actual cultivation, are equivalent to a Beast in the First Realm.
A Spiritual Beast with 500 years of cultivation is equivalent to a cultivation of the Tenth Level of the Realm of Spiritual Strengthening of the Body, and this is the maximum for the current Huang Feifei.
500 years of cultivation is not really 500 years of life. Since a Beast can simply have 10 years of life but 500 years of cultivation.
Because the years of cultivation are calculated based on the level of cultivation it has. In the First Realm of Beast Cultivation, Beasts gain 50 cultivation years for each level they ascend.
In the Second Realm, they gain 150 years for each level they ascend.
But a 500-year-old Spirit Beast is much more powerful than that little night lion. If Huang Feifei had to run away from that little lion...
Then she could never kill a Spirit Beast that old. Even a 50-year-old one could assassinate it.
That\'s why she needs help to get her cultivation bones.
\'Hm, if she has any problems, it shouldn\'t be difficult to help her get her 500-year-old Spirit Bone... Maybe she can manage to complete that mission...\' Tang Yin thought.
He chose to ignore the Divine Sun Hall because, from the way she said it, it seemed like it was common knowledge. If he didn\'t know, then she would be suspicious, so it\'s better to avoid that.
--"By the way, how much does Bamboo cost in the City?" Tang Yin asked. This was important, as it was his current main source of income in an unknown world.
Although he didn\'t plan to sell them all least a few he should sell, to make a good living.
She smiled.
--"For each 1-meter-old spiritual bamboo, the merchants, and the Alchemists Association give between 5 and 10 Spiritual Gold Coins. But these seem to be many years old, so it should be around 5 to 20 Spiritual Gold Coins per meter." She said happily.
She was really happy about this.
She had become rich and never thought she could cut so many ancient spiritual bamboos.
--"Considering that Young Master gets more, he should be able to get more than 10 thousand Spiritual Gold coins. That\'s amazing, Young Master, with the prices of Spiritual Herbs in the City, able to get some to heal your wounds." She said cheerfully.
Tang Yin and Huang Feifei talked a while ago regarding this, and he told her that he had a way to recover and get back to Cultivation, but he needed time. It was then that she decided that she would give most of it to Tang Yin, although he did not tell her that he needed money.
At first, she wanted to give him 1,300 and keep only 200 pieces herself, but Tang Yin still insisted on giving her 300 more.
He wasn\'t a saint to refuse the gift he was being given, but without the tools she had, they couldn\'t have that many bamboo pieces, so it was okay to give her 500 and keep 1,000.
Tang Yin nodded at what she had just said.
--"By the way, are you from the Green Cloud Empire, Young Master?" She asked, and Tang Yin looked at her somewhat confused, but then understood when a memory came to him.
Ren Xiao had researched at the time that the Green Cloud Empire was near the Abyss it is the closest Empire to that place. It\'s just that he didn\'t know where it was, and of course, Tang Yin had no idea either.
Ren Xiao was looking for that empire before he was killed, but he hadn\'t been able to find it.
And, apparently, the Green Cloud Empire was towards the other side.
Tang Yin shook his head.
--"No, actually, I come from the southern region." He said calmly.
And she looked at him, was greatly surprised.
--"Are you from the southern region? My goodness, that\'s far away." She said, and Tang Yin nodded.
From Ren Xiao\'s memories, even though that guy hardly investigated this world, he could tell that this \'continent\' was incredibly large.
It is so large that a single region could be equivalent to an entire continent. It even has giant lakes and seas within the continent itself, but following routes you can reach any region by walking, although it could still take you a very long time.
As far as he knows, the Ren Family was a powerful Family of a First Tier Empire in the Southern Region. This empire is quite a high level, on the level of the Green Cloud Empire or even higher.
Whereas Tang Yin is now located...
In an Empire called Red Wind, it seemed to be a Third Level Empire, the lowest of the empires. In fact, according to Huang Feifei, the bamboo forest is the last line of the Empire.
Beyond it is a huge forest (which was the one crossed by Tang Yin), and beyond it is the famous \'Meteoric Abyss\' which is an area belonging to no one.

NT: Hello, I am leaving this here because in a few hours I will publish an auxiliary chapter with the explanation of the Realms of Cultivation of this novel. Also, since it is a new term, I will explain the topic of Spiritual Bones a bit so that its relationship to Cultivation and Cultivation Realms can be well understood.
I will limit this entire explanation to what has been seen so far, so as not to give spoilers.
Thanks so much for reading.
