Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 581: The light of the elixir is like the bright moon, and the mysterious power operates automatically

Powerful force flows through the body.

Chen Yun noticed that the Dan Qi seemed to become darker red and richer.

It seems that if the quantity is a little larger, the Dan Qi will undergo a new qualitative change.

In addition, Chen Yun sensed that his soul seemed to have "grown" a little, from the original three or four inches to five or six inches.

"I judge that I am four or five times stronger than before I refined the Spiritual Transformation Soup, but my soul has only grown one or two inches?"

Chen Yun remembered that the "Yang Shen" was exactly the same as a real person, so if he wanted to refine his Yuan Shen into a Yang Shen, he would probably need to increase it thousands of times.

This made him doubt. The effect of the Shen Hua Decoction was sufficient, but it seemed that it was still not enough for him to cultivate the Yang Shen.

"The light of the Yang God can illuminate the heavens and the worlds. It is normal that it is thousands and thousands of times more powerful than my Yuan Shen, who is currently in the early stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm."

Chen Yun had no doubt about this.

What he was wondering about was, once the effect of the Shen Hua Tang wore off, how could he obtain enough "energy" to complete the Shen refinement?
"When the time comes, we'll figure out a solution."

Chen Yun did not hesitate too much and was ready to do the task at hand first.

He only had two things to do now.

First, try to use the Shen Hua Soup to elevate yourself to the middle stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm within this month.

Second, twenty-seven days later, the golden axe and golden scissors will appear, and you have to keep an eye on them to avoid Cheng Yaojin appearing halfway.

"No rush, there are still twenty-seven days."

Chen Yun thought to himself, "Today is the sixth day of the first lunar month. I have already refined the medicinal effect of the God-Transforming Decoction once. The next sixteenth and twenty-sixth of this month are ten and twenty days apart respectively. In short, I can complete the first three times of refining the medicinal power of the God-Transforming Decoction before the golden axe and golden scissors appear."

After refining the medicinal power of the Shenhua Decoction three times, it is still hard to say whether he can enter the middle stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Based on his previous judgment, he should be able to enter. After all, the first time he refined the Spirit Transformation Soup, both his golden elixir, his soul, and his physical body improved by about four or five times.

Well, according to this progress, after three times, I will be at least fourteen or fifteen times stronger than before I refined the Divine Transformation Soup, and the possibility of me entering the middle stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm is quite high.

"Of course, these are just my guesses."

Chen Yun thought to himself, "It's possible that I guessed wrong. After all, the gap between each small realm in the Earthly Immortal Realm is extremely huge. Maybe three times of refining are not enough, and it may take eight or nine times."

He knew that he would only know these things after they happened, so he didn't speculate too much.

Afterwards, Chen Yun used the art of teleportation to return to the side of Yan Feng, Niu Dali and Master Jingchen. He chatted with them while waiting and discussed some matters related to cultivation, such as various experiences in cultivation and various mysterious methods.

……

Ten days passed by in a flash.

At midnight on the 16th night, Chen Yun came to the small cave to refine the medicinal power as he did before.

He now has only one goal, which is to reach the state of "the light of the elixir is like a bright moon hanging down" as soon as possible.

Once that time comes, his defense will be greatly increased, and his ability to survive will also be improved, allowing him to exert greater strength on the battlefield of the Battle of the Gods.

Another point is that as soon as Chen Yun left Sun Moon Lake, he would immediately go to settle accounts with Taoist Gou Teng.

Although his determination to pursue the Tao was restored because he almost attained the true body of Tathagata, it was still a problem.

As a person who practices Taoism, what matters is the freedom of thoughts.

How could Chen Yun not seek redress for the losses he had suffered previously?

"I didn't take the initiative to provoke Yinshan Sect, let alone Xingxiu Sea, but you, Taoist Gou Teng, are so aggressive and have been causing trouble for me time and time again. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

Chen Yun snorted coldly and thought to himself, "This time my cultivation has greatly improved, and I have also comprehended the power of the 'trapping' law, a powerful skill that can lock others. I want to see what kind of waves you can still make!"

As I was thinking about it, the medicinal power in my body slowly rose.

Streams of hot air filled the body, moving along the fourth-turn practice route of Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Secret, constantly transforming into Dan Qi, nourishing the body and the soul.

One exhale, one inhale.

Chen Yun felt the Dan Qi in his body surging, just like a fish surging in the water.

Along with the surge of Dan Qi, he felt that his own strength was also growing rapidly.

After a short while, the first medicinal power was refined.

Chen Yun sensed his own condition. "Hmm? I had already improved four or five times last time. Logically, the effect of the medicine this time should not be as obvious as before. Why do I still feel that my strength has increased by several percent, just like last time?"

Could it be that the medicinal strength of Huashen Decoction is different from that of various previous spiritual soups?
It is not fixed in how much "energy" it provides at one time, but it will continuously release more medicinal power based on its own strength?
Chen Yun was a little puzzled at first, wondering why Huashen Decoction had such an effect.

However, he suddenly thought of something and immediately understood what was going on.

The Shenhua Soup contains many precious spiritual roots of heaven and earth. Some of these spiritual roots, such as the ninth-grade purple ganoderma, can enable ordinary people to attain immortality by taking one.

It stands to reason that when so many precious herbs are put together to make a soup, the medicinal power produced would be extremely powerful. For example, it would be no problem to allow oneself to instantly improve to a higher level. Although that would make it possible for one to not be able to withstand the huge improvement, thereby causing the body and golden elixir soul to collapse, however, the medicinal power of each spiritual root of heaven and earth added together is indeed this much.

Now the medicinal power produced by the "combination" of so many precious spiritual roots of heaven and earth should be much greater than if they were taken individually. It doesn't make sense that the medicinal power would only increase by four or five times when it was refined for the first time.

"In other words, there is actually something that is limiting the production of the drug's power, and its purpose is to allow my body to withstand it so that it does not suddenly become much stronger and 'explode' itself?"

Chen Yun felt that this possibility was very high, because the strength that could be displayed in the middle stage of the Earth Immortal Realm was more than dozens or hundreds of times stronger than that in the early stage of the Earth Immortal Realm. If it really increased that much all at once, he really would not be able to bear it.

He suddenly recalled an ingredient in the Shenhua Soup, its name was "Tianchan Lingye".

This medicinal ingredient is unusual. In addition to being a holy medicine for healing wounds, it also has the magical function of "sealing spiritual energy".

Chen Yun has a strong body and unparalleled recovery ability. Even if his body is broken into pieces, he can recover instantly.

But not all saints possess such a great Dharma as he does.

This Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf can heal many serious injuries to the sacred body and is a first-class holy medicine for healing.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether it heals injuries or not. The most important thing is that it has the ability to “lock up spiritual energy”.

This "blockade of spiritual energy" will allow it to perform a certain degree of blockade based on the growth environment and changes in the surrounding spiritual energy.

After swallowing it, its medicinal effect will adjust the "immortal energy" within the appropriate tolerance range according to the physical condition of the injured person, to prevent some injuries from being serious, causing the immortal energy to leak out and thousands of years of hard training to turn to ashes.

In the past, Chen Yun didn’t know why the God-Transforming Soup needed the Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf. He needed it to strengthen himself and didn’t need to heal his wounds. Now he finally understood. The real purpose of the God-Transforming Soup requiring this spiritual root of heaven and earth was not to heal wounds, but to “adjust” the strength of the medicine to prevent his body from not being able to bear it.

"In this case, the potency of the medicine this time is greater than last time, which explains why."

Chen Yun thought to himself, "I estimate that the potency of the medicine will be even stronger next time, but it won't be infinitely strong. Once it reaches a certain threshold, the potency will be fixed."

He didn't know where the threshold was.

The only thing that is certain is that he will never allow himself to cultivate the Yang God.

Chen Yun could see this from the fact that there was no spiritual soup available every time he was close to a realm breakthrough.

If the "Daluo Lingtang" could help him break through to a higher realm, he wouldn't have been stuck in the leader realm for so long.

The effect of "Daluo Lingtang" is more like shortening the meaningless process of accumulating one's own strength, but in order to achieve the necessary breakthrough in realm, one must work hard to comprehend it bit by bit and understand why one has reached this realm.

Thinking of this, Chen Yun gradually understood the good intentions of the "future successor".

The other party might have the ability to turn himself into a celestial being instantly, but he didn't do that.

The main reason is that forcing things to grow is like a mirage, and it is impossible to truly transcend. Only by taking one step at a time can one understand the difficulty of cultivation, the mystery of cultivation, and comprehend all the rules of heaven and earth, and then achieve true eternal immortality.

"Don't think about these things for now. Focus on refining the medicinal effects of the Shenhua Decoction and see if you can automatically release the elixir light out of the body to form a 'protective shield'."

Chen Yun immersed himself in it wholeheartedly, constantly refining the medicinal power.

At first, apart from the feeling that he was growing stronger, he didn't notice anything else special.

As the medicinal power continued to be refined, the Dan Qi in the body seemed to become more and more active.

If it was like the rush of fish at the beginning, then now, he felt that the Dan Qi was like boiling water, moving towards boiling.

The Dan Qi seems to want to jump out of the body!

This feeling was not strong at first, until about half an hour after refining the medicinal power today.

Suddenly, Chen Yun found that every pore and every inch of his skin seemed to "stretch" out, and rays of Dan Qi condensed into Dan light and released.

Suddenly, an invisible and intangible light, imperceptible to the naked eye, hung down from the top of his head like a bright moon.

Unfortunately, the light of the elixir lasted less than a moment before it was extinguished.

"Hmm?" Chen Yun noticed the situation. "I seem to have been able to make the golden elixir light hang down like a bright moon and cover my body. It's just that my golden elixir is not strong enough to support such a huge consumption, so it is broken."

He was very interested in this and paid more attention to what happened next.

Sure enough, a similar situation would occur with each subsequent process of refining the medicinal power.

It is as if the Dan Qi is automatically trying to see if it can achieve the action of "a bright moon hanging upside down and covering the whole body".

And as time goes by and you become stronger, this elixir light will last longer.

Before the medicinal power was refined tonight, the elixir light even lasted for a full second.

From less than a split second at the beginning to being able to last for a second now, the improvement is enormous!
Chen Yun rested for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes and thought to himself: "Judging from the previous situation, maybe I can do this the next time I finish refining the medicinal power. Even if it doesn't work the next time, I will definitely be able to do it the next time!"

Thinking of this, he returned to the Southwest Basin again, and continued to wait for the birth of the golden axe and golden scissors with Yan Feng, Niu Dali, and Master Jingchen.

……

Another ten days passed.

It's already the 26th of this month.

Just like the previous two times, Chen Yun came to the small cave to refine the medicinal power.

The effect of the medicine has not yet taken effect, but he has a vague premonition, "Tonight, I should be able to make the light of the elixir shine like the bright moon to protect my body!"

As soon as this thought came to mind, the medicinal power in the body began to take effect.

Chen Yun sensed that the power of the medicine this time was four or five times stronger than the second time he refined the Shenhua Soup, as if it had kept up with his own progress.

“The threshold has not been reached yet.”

Chen Yun carefully sensed it for a moment, "But I can feel that even if I increase the potency of the medicine, it won't be increased too much."

Once the threshold is reached, Huashen Decoction will then enter a stable period, which means a fixed amount of medicinal power.

Chen Yun didn't care about all this and immersed himself in refining the medicinal power.

As new Dan Qi increased, the already dark red and rich Dan Qi once again moved in the "golden" direction.

"Golden stars" appeared on the Dan Qi.

However, the "gold" this time was different from the previous gold before he attained immortality. It looked even more dazzling and brilliant, as if it were an immortal existence.

"Gold is indestructible, so it is the treasure of all things!"

Chen Yun suddenly seemed to understand something. "If nothing unexpected happens, when the color of my Dan light returns to a brighter golden color, then I can truly refine the Yang God."

Of course, the so-called dark red or gold is just his internal perspective. In fact, the Dan Qi is invisible and intangible, and its color cannot be observed at all.

It's the same principle as how a computer models particles.

As the medicinal power continued to increase, Chen Yun discovered that there were more and more "golden stars" on the golden elixir.

At the same time, the Dan light was also trying to cover the body for a long time as before.

Every time the Shenhua Soup is refined, nine huge medicinal powers will be born, and this time is no exception.

The first medicinal power was born, and the light of the pill lasted for about five seconds.

The third medicinal power was born, and the pill light lasted for about fifteen seconds.

The eighth medicinal power was born, and the pill light lasted for about forty seconds.

Up to here, there is nothing unusual.

Chen Yun could even judge that at this rate of growth, even if the ninth medicinal power was born, it would not be possible for his elixir light to cover his body like an upside-down bright moon.

He felt that his attack would fail again tonight.

As a result, when the ninth Dan Qi was born, his whole body boomed, as if some restriction was opened, and the golden elixir formed a close connection with the surrounding heaven and earth, causing the spiritual Qi from the surrounding to gather continuously. When it touched the Dan light released from the top door, these spiritual Qis rushed to make up for it, causing the Dan light that was about to be destroyed to stabilize all of a sudden!
This limitation is not actually a real limitation.

Chen Yun was surprised to find that although the fourth turn of his "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Art" had not yet been fully accomplished, the fourth level of "Pangu's True Body Art" integrated into it had already been cultivated to perfection.

Precisely because he had cultivated the fourth level of "Pangu's True Body Art" to perfection, his physical body was completely connected with the heaven and earth.

If we have to find an adjective, it would be that the body has instinctively reached the superb state of "harmony between man and nature"!
Yes, Chen Yun did not do that on purpose, it was the instinct of his body.

In other words, it is the magical function that comes with the fourth level of "Pangu's True Body Technique".

At this moment, he had a feeling that he seemed to have an endless supply of power, and no matter how he used up his magic, it would never run out!
Of course, although he could feel the endless power that could be generated, his "faucet" was only so big, and the output power did not exceed the range that he could bear.

"Endless supply of mana?"

Chen Yun was slightly surprised. "This way, I won't have to worry about running out of mana when I fight with others."

This was not the most surprising thing for him.

The thing that Chen Yun found most strange was that when the eighth medicinal power was born, he analyzed that he was still a long way from the middle stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm. However, after the fourth level of "Pangu's True Body Art" was perfected, he continuously absorbed spiritual energy from the outside world, which made his strength increase again with every breath.

The most important thing is that these spiritual Qi absorbed into the body will actively move according to the fourth round of "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Technique" even if you don't practice any exercises, and then transform into Dan Qi to strengthen yourself.

It’s like putting yourself in a process of practicing anytime and anywhere.

This is undoubtedly moving.

Generally, practitioners have fixed days for practice every day or every month. They need to adjust at other times. It is impossible for them to be completely immersed in practice. Doing so will increase their burden, or even lead to overload, which will not be worth the cost and cause problems to their physical body and soul, resulting in a decline in their practice.

Chen Yun doesn't feel overloaded in his current state.

"If this situation can continue, wouldn't my cultivation of a hundred years be equivalent to others' cultivation of hundreds of years?"

Chen Yun was really surprised and delighted by this situation.

In addition, he had a vague premonition that perhaps he would not have to wait until the next effect of the Shen Hua Tang was produced before he could enter the middle stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm!
