I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 352 The Flourishing Dual-Cultivation Path

“Furnace? Dual cultivation?”

Zhou Feng was very sensitive to these two words.

This was because it was different from other cultivation methods, and he didn’t know if it was the same as he had imagined.

“The dual-cultivation method is a side path, but many people immerse themselves in this path because cultivation is fast.

“And the process is extremely pleasant.”

Leng Maner did not think too much and slowly began to explain to Zhou Feng.

Apart from the first few stages of cultivation, the path of cultivation for different cultivators in the later stages was also different.

The dual-cultivation method was one of the many side-door cultivation paths.

Focusing on dual cultivation with a dao partner and taking inspiration from the great Yin-Yang Dao, any dual-cultivation method could not be separated from the fusion of Yin and Yang.

In the beginning, this dual-cultivation method was only spread in a small area.

After all, although one could cultivate extremely fast, their foundation would be unstable, and the spiritual power cultivated from it was heterogeneous.

It had all sorts of disadvantages.

But as it continued to develop, more and more prodigies joined this path.

Dual-cultivation methods became more and more popular, and all the previous disadvantages were slowly remedied.

However, this kind of dual-cultivation method basically harmed others and benefited oneself. If one wanted to solve the disadvantages of dual-cultivation methods, one would need to put in a lot of effort.

In particular, the birth of the furnace method allowed the dual-cultivation method to reach a peak.

The so-called furnace method was to cultivate a powerful furnace for one’s own cultivation.

As the dual-cultivation method continued to develop, normal cultivators could no longer satisfy dual-cultivation experts.

Moreover, because the dual-cultivation method was prevalent, many cultivators were killed.

They were taken away and forced to dual cultivate and sucked dry of Vital Qi, causing the dual-cultivation path to be in danger.

Then, a dual-cultivation expert came up with an idea. Why not cultivate a furnace?

The furnace technique was born.

Not only would it be safer to cultivate it by oneself, but it would also be more in line with one’s own requirements.

Most importantly, it was not so easy to arouse the dislike of other cultivators.

There were even some dual-cultivation experts who did not cultivate humans to become furnaces.

Instead, they targeted the other races. This was because the bodies of the other races were generally stronger, and they were even better as furnaces.

In the end, all the dual-cultivation sects targeted the other races.

The dual-cultivation path could be considered to have gained a firm foothold and was no longer rejected by other orthodoxies.

This demi-human in front of them was a Gorgon, an excellent material to be used as a furnace.

As long as they nurtured it carefully, this Gorgon would be able to break through to the half-step Divine Ability realm.

Then, they would use the dual-cultivation method to absorb all the Vital Qi, combining Yin and Yang.

And because Gorgons had strong vitality, they could continue to be nurtured after losing all their Vital Qi until their vitality was exhausted.

It was precisely because of this that almost all Gorgons had been captured and exterminated.

Now that one had appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of many dual-cultivation experts.

“Also, dual cultivating with a Gorgon is even more enjoyable than with a human, not to mention the Inner Charm Constitution.”

As she spoke, Leng Maner stared intently at Zhou Feng

“So that’s how it is…”

Zhou Feng did not expect that the dual-cultivation path in this world could develop to such an extent.

Although some cultivators still regarded the dual-cultivation path as a side door, the great Divine Ability practitioners were not inferior to orthodox cultivators.

Zhou Feng once again looked at the high platform.

He noticed that the human-snake skin was very delicate. There was no clothing on the upper half of the body, and the high mountains were only covered by long black hair.

That faintly discernible intent was really enough to satisfy one’s appetite.

“Starting price, 300,000 Spirit Stones!”

The auctioneer started the auction.

300,000 Spirit Stones!

Zhou Feng was still a little surprised when he heard the price.

The starting price was this high!?

The final price would probably be over 1,000,000 Spirit Stones.

Moreover, after the Gorgon was bought back, they would have to waste a lot of resources to cultivate them. It seemed that only people with a rich background could follow this dual-cultivation path.

Although Zhou Feng was interested in what he had just heard, he was not interested in this Gorgon.

After all, he was not that open-minded. He was not a dual-cultivation practitioner, so this Gorgon was of no use to him.

Leng Maner looked at Zhou Feng, who had quickly lost interest, and for some reason, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.

Like him, Leng Maner naturally did not care much about this Gorgon.

What she cared more about was her Ice Spirit Gu.

Although Zhou Feng and Leng Maner did not care much about this Gorgon, the crowd started bidding feverently

The faintly discernible peaks in front of the Gorgon’s chest made the men’s blood boil.

“400,000!”

“700,000!” “Hmph! 1,000,000!”

The Gorgon’s price had reached 1,000,000 Spirit Stones in less than a minute.

From the looks of it, this price was far from the highest.

Zhou Feng silently calculated his wealth. The remaining savings from before, together with the Spirit Stones obtained from completing the mission with Leng Maner, all in all, it was only worth 800,000 Spirit Stones.

Originally, he thought that this was already quite a lot, but he did not expect himself to be so poor.

“2,000,000!”

In the end, an extremely handsome young man made the highest bid.

He directly used 2,000,000 Spirit Stones to buy this Gorgon.

Zhou Fengclicked his tongue in wonder. ‘How could these people be so rich?’

But thinking about it, how could he cultivate if he did not have the money? Only Zhou Feng had the golden finger, the skill panel.

That was why he could cultivate to this level as a vagabond cultivator.

Even Leng Maner cultivated to this level because she had inherited the resources of the entire Tri-Gu Sect.

“Alright! Next is still an excellent furnace!”

The auction continued, and next was another ‘furnace material’.

But this time, it was a man.

This man looked extremely thin and weak and had a pair of wings on his back. He was a Harpy.

Zhou Feng quickly lost interest.

Just like before, this man caused many cultivators to fight over him.

The auction continued. There were pills, spiritual artifacts, cultivation techniques, and many other things.

This auction opened Zhou Feng’s eyes, but he didn’t participate.

Firstly, he didn’t have enough money, and secondly, these things were of no use to him.

During this process, Zhou Feng found something interesting.

There were almost no ores or refining materials among those items.

Most of them were spirit herbs and spiritual artifacts.

“Next item! Ice Glass Flower! A total of three flowers will be auctioned separately!” Finally, the item that Leng Maner needed appeared. “Ice Glass Flower!”

Looking at the ice crystal-like flower on the stage, Leng Maner instantly sat up straight because this was the key to her breakthrough.

She only hoped that the price would not be too high. If it were too high, Leng Maner would not be able to afford it.

In order to cultivate, she had already used up most of the Spirit Stones in her hands.

If not for the cooperation with Zhou Feng a while ago, she might not even have the Spirit Stones to bid for the Ice Glass Flower.

“Starting price, 500,000 Spirit Stones!”

The Ice Glass Flower had a special effect of removing impurities from the body and was also the main ingredient of a pill, so the price was extremely high.

After hearing this price, Leng Maner’s hands instantly tightened up nervously.
