Although Jiang Yun still couldn't fully deduce the specific use of the stone, besides increasing the efficacy of Medicinal Pills, it also had the ability to conceal one's Cultivation!
Because when Dongfang Bo came to find Jiang Yun the next day, he was surprised to find that Jiang Yun's body no longer emitted any Qi.
In other words, he couldn't see through Jiang Yun's true Cultivation Realm anymore!
If he hadn't known clearly yesterday that Jiang Yun had already stepped into the third level of Tongmai Realm, he would definitely think that Jiang Yun was still a Mortal.
This made him feel a sense of novelty, but just as he had said before, this was Jiang Yun's secret, so he didn't try to inquire about the reason.
Anyway, being able to conceal his Cultivation was a good thing for Jiang Yun, after all, his Cultivation speed was truly astonishing, and if it were to spread, it would inevitably attract the attention of those with ulterior motives, and this ability of the stone just helped him a great deal.
As for the other uses of the stone, since Jiang Yun no longer had items containing Dao Intent around him, he couldn't test it further, but he did figure out a way to use the stone.
The stone could only turn into water to put Medicinal Pills into it, and for the stone to turn into water, it needed to absorb Dao Intent, and one or two Dao Intents were not enough, at least three were needed!
Of course, these were just Jiang Yun's thoughts, and to prove whether they were correct, he still needed to experiment more times.
However, with his current status as a Utility Disciple, it was not easy to obtain Cultivation items that might contain Dao Intent, so he could only put the stone aside for now and continue to focus on his Cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, nine days passed, and Jiang Yun finally stopped his Cultivation again, listening to the 'rumbling' sound in his stomach, he muttered to himself, "Originally, a Bigu Pill could ensure three days without hunger, but after being branded, the time was extended by three times!"
"If I put a Qi Induction Pill into that water, would the amount of Spiritual Qi drawn also reach three times?"
"Also, I heard from Senior Brother that there are many other Medicinal Pills that can be used to improve Cultivation. If they can all be put into the water and increase their efficacy by three times, that would be of great benefit to my Cultivation!"
A glint flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes. Only at this moment did he finally realize that this stone was truly beneficial to his path of Cultivation and was indeed a genuine treasure.

"I really don't know how that little girl Yue Rou was able to determine that this stone was a treasure, but such a good thing should be more suitable for her to use. Grandpa said her Aptitude is good, so when I go back, I'll return the stone to her!"
Thinking of Jiang Yuerou, a smile involuntarily appeared on Jiang Yun's face.
In the blink of an eye, it had already been more than two months since he left Mang Mountain, and he had never been separated from her for such a long time. Perhaps now that little girl should be pestering Grandpa, inquiring about his whereabouts!
"I miss home too!" Jiang Yun sighed softly, forcibly suppressing his longing. Instead of missing home here, it would be better to quickly improve his strength, so he could go back earlier!
"It's just that items containing Dao Intent are too difficult to find, especially with my status as a Utility Disciple, it's impossible to obtain them! Only after becoming an Outer Sect Disciple will the Sect reward some Medicinal Pills and Spirit Stones every month, and furthermore, I can earn contribution points by completing tasks, thereby exchanging them for various items needed for Cultivation."
These were naturally told to Jiang Yun by Dongfang Bo.
Although the Sect was a place countless people wanted to join, Cultivation resources were limited, and it was impossible for everyone to enjoy the same treatment, so there were almost strict requirements for the distribution of resources.
Even for Inner Sect Disciples, although the Sect regularly issued some items every month, to obtain more resources, they also had to complete more tasks and earn contribution points to exchange for them themselves.
And Utility Disciples like Jiang Yun only received a reward once when they successfully joined the Sect, which was three Bigu Pills and Qi Induction Pills, and a basic Cultivation Technique.
After that, the Sect would no longer care for you, letting you fend for yourself, unless you could continuously improve your Cultivation Realm and continuously enhance your strength, gradually standing out among the many Disciples, only then would you gain the Sect's attention and importance.
"It seems that what I need to do first now is to become an Outer Sect Disciple! Fortunately, it's almost time!"
At this point, a confident smile appeared on Jiang Yun's face, and he looked inside his body. Within his body, there were already five Meridians flowing unobstructed!
In less than half a month, Jiang Yun had leaped from a Mortal to a Cultivator in the fifth level of Tongmai Realm, and this was even the result of his deliberate suppression.
There was nothing he could do, Grandpa had laid such a good foundation for him that he couldn't even Cultivate slowly if he wanted to.
"However, the sixth level of Tongmai Realm is a watershed. I should temporarily halt my Cultivation for a while and unblock the remaining Meridians after my Realm is completely stable!"
Jiang Yun stood up and walked out of his small courtyard, breathing in the fresh mountain air, his mood also relaxed a lot.
The five-year agreement with Feng Wuji had always been like a huge stone pressing on his heart.
He wasn't afraid of Feng Wuji, but he was afraid of the Reincarnation Sect behind Feng Wuji.
Especially after he entered the Wen Dao Sect, he became even more clearly aware that let alone Jiang Village, perhaps even all the villages in the Ten Thousand Mang Mountains combined would not be able to contend against the power of a Sect.
But now, the rapid progress in Cultivation, coupled with the magical ability of the black stone, finally eased the huge stone in Jiang Yun's heart quite a bit.
After standing in front of the courtyard and gazing at the mountain scenery for a moment, Jiang Yun suddenly patted his head and said, "Oh right, I've been on Hidden Peak for almost half a month, and I haven't yet paid my respects to Second Senior Sister. That's truly impolite."
Even though Jiang Yun was a 'savage' who came out of Mang Mountain, Grandpa had taught him from a young age that one must always be courteous.
Especially in Mang Mountain, there were clear boundaries for territorial divisions, so the first thing to do when entering an unfamiliar area was to visit the owner of the territory, thereby avoiding unnecessary trouble.
Although Dongfang Bo had said that Second Senior Sister could provide guidance in Cultivation Techniques, because of the iron sword exploding, Jiang Yun simply focused all his energy on improving his Realm, and naturally, he didn't go to find Second Senior Sister.
While patting his head, Jiang Yun hurried towards the waterfall, but when he reached the edge of the waterfall, he stopped, looking at the cascading waterfall with a blank expression, not knowing how to enter it.
Fortunately, at this moment, a clear female voice came from within the waterfall: "Is that Jiang Yun?"
Jiang Yun hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed deeply towards the direction of the voice, saying, "I am Jiang Yun, and I have come specifically to pay my respects to Second Senior Sister!"
"Rise!"
Jiang Yun only felt a blur before his eyes, and a figure had already appeared in front of him. He looked up, and at first glance, Jiang Yun was stunned on the spot.
Standing in front of him was actually a Fairy. Although she was graceful and beautiful, she looked at least forty years old.
Looking at the stunned Jiang Yun, the Middle-aged beautiful woman smiled slightly and said, "Are you wondering why I am Second Senior Sister, but I am older than Senior Brother?"
"It is a bit strange!" Jiang Yun did not deny it, and nodded gently.
The Middle-aged beautiful woman did not explain the reason, but instead said, "Then when you see Third Junior Brother, you will probably be even more surprised!"
Jiang Yun was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only lower his head and say, "I should have come to pay my respects to Second Senior Sister earlier, but I've been busy with Cultivation during this time, so I only came today. I hope Second Senior Sister will not blame me!"
"It's nothing, your thoughtfulness is enough." The Middle-aged beautiful woman suddenly raised her wrist, and a Talisman appeared in her hand, saying, "This will be your welcome gift!"
Jiang Yun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I appreciate Second Senior Sister's kindness, but there's no need for a welcome gift."
"Take it if I tell you to. This isn't anything good, it's just a Substitute Talisman I refined when I had nothing to do. If you ever encounter a life-threatening danger, just light this Talisman, and it can save your life!"
Substitute Talisman!
Although Jiang Yun didn't know the value of this Talisman, since it could save a life, it must be extremely precious, and he dared not accept it. In the end, Second Senior Sister forcefully put it into his hand.
"Alright, I'm going to Cultivate. You should also work hard on your Cultivation and not waste time!" After a pause, Second Senior Sister suddenly lowered her voice and looked at Jiang Yun with a meaningful gaze, saying, "In the future, if you have any questions you don't understand, go to the Scripture Pavilion and read more books yourself. Don't always ask Senior Brother for advice. You, understand what I mean, right!"
