Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 858: The method of promoting spiritual treasures, fourth-level top-grade alchemist!
The poison of the purple-scaled poisonous toad was still eroding his magic power. Although he suppressed it, it ultimately affected his ability to exert his strength.

"Fang Daoyou, please stop." Yun Ku Tianjun said in a deep voice.

"If we continue to fight, both sides will suffer losses."

Fang Jiuzun's face was uncertain. He stared at Zhou Xun in the distance, then looked at Yun Ku and the other man who were waiting in full battle array, and finally snorted coldly:
"Okay! I'll take note of what happened today!"

He waved his sleeves, and a crack appeared in the void: "Yun Ku, Yan Mo, and Zhou Xun, you little beast, just wait for me! I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge for this!"

Before he finished speaking, the man had stepped into the void and disappeared.

After he left, Yunku Tianjun's image slowly dissipated. He turned to look at the dying Zhou Xun and sighed, "You have offended him badly this time!"

Zhou Xun forced himself to stand up. Even though his legs were useless, he still straightened his back and bowed solemnly:
"Thank you both for saving me. As for offending him, ever since I accepted the inheritance of the Lei Xiao Sect, I have been destined to become his mortal enemy. What difference does it make whether I offend him or not!"

Yun Ku Tianjun nodded upon hearing this.

"That's the truth!"

Yan Mo Zhenjun put away his long sword and said calmly: "My dear brother, you don't need to thank me. I have long been disgusted with him. With such a character and mentality, he is actually the number one cultivator of the human race. I am really ashamed to be associated with him!"

With a wave of his hand, he took out a jade talisman and handed it to Zhou Xun:
"This is my communication talisman. If something like this happens again, you can crush it and I will rush over as quickly as possible!"

"Thank you, Brother Dao!" Zhou Xun took it solemnly.

"Well, now that you are seriously injured, come with me back to the Boro Temple to recuperate. I have a 'Blood Source Ganoderma Lucidum' that can regenerate severed limbs!"

Yun Ku Tian Jun said this, flicking his sleeves.
With a flash of spiritual light, a golden translucent light shield enveloped him, and then his figure flashed, and he suddenly disappeared on the spot with Zhou Xun.

Half a month later, deep in a mountain in the Boro Temple,
Two figures sat facing each other.

The older one looked to be in his fifties, with slightly gray hair and a ruddy complexion. He sat there with a majestic demeanor.

This person is Yunku Tianjun.

The young man looked to be in his twenties, wearing a green shirt, with a handsome face and a distinguished temperament. It was Zhou Xun.
That day, I followed Yunku Tianjun back to the Prajna Temple.

He took the Blood Source Ganoderma Lucidum, and under the effect of the medicine, he also secretly absorbed the essence of a fourth-grade inferior spiritual medicine.

The whole person has recovered as before.

"Zhou Xun, you have offended Fang Jiuzun now. With the power of Luoyang Xianzong, he must have spies outside the sect."

"Once you leave, Fang Jiuzun will definitely follow. How about you stay in this Boluo Temple and practice hard?" Yun Ku Tianjun sighed.

"Thank you for bothering me, Master!" Zhou Xun bowed to express his gratitude.

Previously, he had obtained many treasures in the Thunder Prison.

For example, the phantom spirit still needs to be integrated into the purple jade lightning spear, and the lightning pool needs time to absorb the jade ruler.
In addition, there is also the fourth-level peak Thunder Ox Inner Pill, which can also be refined into a pill to strengthen the body and improve cultivation.

"Oh, right, I got a 'phantom spirit' in the Thunder Prison. I want to refine it into the Purple Jade Thunder Spear to help it recover as a spiritual treasure!"

"Master, do you have any corresponding solution?"

Zhou Xun asked,
Yun Ku Tianjun is a cultivator at the peak of the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. With a magical treasure like the Demon-Subduing Pestle in his hand, he must know the corresponding secret techniques.

"Phantom!"

"You actually have such an opportunity. It seems that you are really a person favored by the destiny of this world. Otherwise, how could you become a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage in just over three hundred years!"

Yun Ku Tianjun closed his eyes slightly, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke:
"There is indeed a precedent for using phantom spirits to upgrade spiritual treasures!"

"The reason why spiritual treasures are superior to magic treasures is that they have already bred innate spirituality and can derive their own laws. Advanced ones can even take over the body of a human to practice!"

"And the phantom spirit is a rare thing in heaven and earth. Its essence is the spiritual embryo formed by the condensation of innate spiritual charm. This thing is the supreme product that complements the spirituality of the magic weapon."

He flicked his sleeves and a jade slip appeared in the air.

"The ancient way of refining weapons emphasizes 'using weapons to carry the truth and combining spirits with the heavens'. To make the Purple Jade Lightning Spear return to the ranks of spiritual treasures, three mysteries must be experienced:"

"The first level is to cleanse the meridians,"

"Although the Purple Jade Lightning Spear has been recast after gathering all the fragments, the internal meridians are still blocked." Yun Ku Tianjun pointed to the first jade slip, which showed a meridian diagram of thunder and lightning.
"It is necessary to invoke the heavenly thunder and temper the spear for forty-nine days, so that the veins of the spear can flow like the meridians of the human body."

"This process is in line with the hexagram of 'Thunder and Water Dissolving', which means 'thunder breaks through obstacles and all things sprout'."

"The second level is spiritual fusion,"

"The spirit is full of spirituality, born and raised by nature, how can it be confined in an object?"

"So we need to use the Taiyin Form Refining Technique to refine it into pure spiritual charm, and then use the Nascent Soul's blood as a guide to perform the Blood Refining Spiritual Art, so that it can penetrate into the gun body like spring rain moistening things."

Yun Ku Tian Jun said solemnly:
"This step is the most dangerous and must be performed on the night of the new moon. At that time, the power of the moon is at its strongest and can suppress the nature of the phantom spirits so that when the spirits merge, there will be no backlash."

"The third step is the resonance of vital energy,"

"The moment a spiritual treasure takes shape, it will trigger a resonance between the heaven and earth's vital energy. The spiritual treasure's advancement is like a Qi-refining practitioner's breakthrough to the state of incarnation."

"Induce the vital energy of heaven and earth to infuse into the body and achieve the ultimate sublimation!"

At this point, Yun Ku Tianjun revealed a look of reminiscence, as if he was recalling the days when he was promoted to a spiritual treasure.

"So that's how it is. Thank you, Your Majesty, for clearing up my confusion!" Zhou Xun took the jade slip and bowed to express his gratitude.

It seems that the promotion of this spiritual treasure is much more complicated than he imagined.

In the following time, Zhou Xun asked Yun Ku Tianjun for advice on the way of cultivation before saying goodbye and leaving.

Yun Ku Tianjun had a smaller cave next to his own, which he left for Zhou Xun to live in.

After returning to his cave, Zhou Xun did not refine the Purple Jade Thunder Spear.

The most important thing for him now is to speed up his cultivation, reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible, and then strive for the God Transformation stage.

This time facing Fang Jiuzun was the most embarrassing one in his cultivation.
Even when he was hunted by Lin Xueying's master, Master Fengyue, and stranded in a small fishing village, he was not in such a miserable state.

“Unless you become a god, you will always be an ant!” Zhou Xun murmured.

For example, Lord Yama, once he was promoted to the state of a deity, dared to confront Fang Jiuzun. This was the confidence that his strength gave him.

"Well, for the next period of time, I will practice in seclusion here and improve my incarnation's spiritual roots as soon as possible!"

"If you can improve your spiritual root sensitivity to 100, you can become a congenital human and master the power of transformation in advance!"

By then, with the addition of the Tianyuan Spirit Armor and the Purple Jade Thunder Spear, he doesn't believe that he cannot defeat the God of Transformation!
training room,
Zhou Xun sat cross-legged in front of him.

In front of him, a stick of fourth-grade top-quality calming incense was burning. It was the trophy he got after killing some unlucky guy.

It is said that it is made of the fourth-level Yuanshen flower as the main material, combined with several rare spiritual plants, and is very valuable.
It can quickly calm the user's mind and reduce the risk of inner demons.
Therefore, many monks would light one at a critical juncture in their cultivation. With a flick of his finger, a stream of energy brushed past the incense head, instantly lighting it, and then a puff of smoke dissipated.
He took a deep breath, and a scent of sandalwood reached his mind directly. His slightly agitated mood, which was originally caused by the impending breakthrough, instantly calmed down a lot.

He slowly closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing.
Soon, his spirit and energy all reached their peak state.
Today, he would use the fourth-grade peak Thunder Ox Inner Pill as the main material to refine a furnace of fourth-grade top-quality Thunder Yuan Pills.

With a flick of his sleeves, one ancient and heavy alchemy cauldron after another appeared before his eyes.

The tripod is more than three feet high, purple-black in color, and engraved with dense runes and patterns, including flashing thunder patterns and images of exotic beasts galloping.
It was the Danyuan Ding, which was originally the natal magic weapon of Danding Zhenjun. It eventually fell into his hands and became the tool he used to refine pills.

Zhou Xun took a deep breath and began the first step of alchemy - warming the alchemy furnace.

"rise!"

Zhou Xun pinched his fingers and pointed, and the lid of the tripod floated up.

He formed seals with his hands, and the Nascent Soul in his Dantian opened its eyes and spewed out a stream of pure infant fire.

The flame was bluish-purple in color. When it landed on the bottom of the cauldron, it instantly transformed into nine thunder and fire lotus pedestals, which held up the cauldron steadily.

Suddenly, a soft light appeared in the Danyuan Ding and the temperature gradually rose.

As the spell was continuously performed, the light became increasingly blazing, the cauldron trembled slightly, and a low roaring sound was emitted.

Zhou Xun stared at the Dan Yuan Ding intently, and flexibly adjusted the rhythm and strength of the magic formula according to the changes in the temperature inside the cauldron to ensure that the furnace reached the most suitable temperature for alchemy.

The next step is to deal with the auxiliary elixir.

Zhou Xun took out several precious auxiliary elixirs from his storage bag, including Linglei Grass, Zixiao Flower, Thunder Fruit, etc.

He first picked up a piece of Linglei Grass, flicked his finger lightly, and a fine ray of lightning shot out, accurately cutting off the roots of the Linglei Grass.

Then, his hands flew as he quickly performed spells to remove the impurities in the Linglei Grass one by one, leaving only the pure medicinal power.

Then, he processed the other auxiliary elixirs one by one, handling each one extremely carefully and not allowing the slightest mistake.

It took him about two days to process all the auxiliary spiritual medicines.
Then there was the fourth-level peak Thunder Bull Inner Pill.

Zhou Xun carefully took out the Thunder Ox's inner elixir and placed it in the palm of his hand.

He formed seals with his hands, and a purple lightning fire spurted out from his fingertips, enveloping the inner elixir.

The impurities in the inner elixir were gradually stripped out and turned into wisps of black smoke floating in the air. Half a day later, the inner elixir became purer and turned into a pool of medicinal liquid.
Next is the fusion liquid.
Zhou Xun put the processed auxiliary elixirs and Thunder Ox's inner elixir into the Dan Yuan Ding one by one.

Then he cast a spell, and the Dan Yuan Ding suddenly glowed with light, and various medicinal powers intertwined and collided with each other.
Under the effect of the spell, the medicinal power gradually blended together, and at this time a faint medicinal fragrance began to spread.

Zhou Xun's magic formula changed, and the medicinal liquid was divided into nine streams, and then slowly took shape under the effect of the spiritual fire.

This process is extremely slow.

I do not know how long it has been.

An astonishing medicinal fragrance emanated from the Alchemy Furnace Technique and filled the entire training room.

The aroma of the medicine invaded Zhou Xun's nasal cavity, shocking his mind and making his magic power seem to circulate faster.

It is worthy of being a fourth-grade top-grade elixir.

Zhou Xun didn't relax at all as he fired the last pill condensation technique.

The elixir was successfully formed.

Zhou Xun breathed a sigh of relief!

"Refining successful!"

Zhou Xun waved his hand, and the furnace lid opened automatically. Then nine purple-glowing pills flew out and landed on the jade plate in front of him.
"Crack!"

There were arcs of lightning flashing on these pills, worthy of being made from the inner pills of the fourth-level peak Thunder Bull!
"Nine genuine pills were made, which means his alchemy skills have reached the fourth-level upper level!"

But this is not over yet,
Zhou Xun waved his hand and took out nine fourth-grade lower-grade spiritual medicines.

Top-grade thunder-type elixirs are so rare that they naturally need to be used to their full potential. Therefore, he plans to use the Ningchun Sutra to enhance these elixirs to their full potential.

Sure enough, under the blessing of the fourth-level lower-grade spiritual medicine essence,
Each of these nine genuine Thunder Yuan Pills had reached the super-grade level. The rich spiritual charm on the surface of the pills was almost the only one he had ever seen in his life.

It is almost comparable to the fifth-level Xuanyun Leizhi!

"Such a magical pill, I wonder how effective it is?"

Zhou Xun stared at the nine purple-lit pills on the jade plate, each of which was as bright as a star.
"Superior Thunder Yuan Dan"

He took a deep breath, took out a pill and placed it in his palm. As soon as the pill touched his skin, a tiny arc of lightning traveled along the meridians of his arm, bringing a tingling sensation.

Then he opened his mouth, put the pill into his mouth and swallowed it.

The pill melted in the mouth and turned into a stream of scalding lightning that rushed straight to the dantian.

Zhou Xun's pores exploded instantly, and purple lightning traveled along his skin, wrapping him into a ball of lightning. He activated the "Purple Thunder Art" to guide this powerful spiritual power.

Inside the Dantian, the thunder pool where the Nascent Soul was sitting cross-legged was rippling violently.

The originally clear thunder pool began to boil, and the medicinal power turned into thousands of thunder snakes, madly transformed into spiritual power, and merged into the Nascent Soul in the Dantian.
As thousands of lightning snakes madly drilled into the Nascent Soul, Zhou Xun felt as if his sea of ​​consciousness was a chaos split by thunder, with severe pain and pleasure intertwined.

Fine lightning patterns appeared on the surface of his Nascent Soul, and each pattern was emitting purple lightning.

It is indeed a super-grade elixir, it actually has such a strange effect!
After three full months, Zhou Xun finally succeeded in refining the pill, but its huge medicinal power still remained in his body and it would take several years to completely digest it.

Then Zhou Xun opened his eyes and looked inward.

Sure enough, his cultivation level had improved significantly compared to the late Nascent Soul stage.

"This super-grade Thunder Yuan Pill is indeed worthy of its reputation. Just one pill has improved my cultivation so much."

Zhou Xun's eyes flashed with surprise, and he muttered to himself.

And he still has eight such pills.

Zhou Xun spent the rest of the time in the Boro Temple.
In addition to practicing every day, he would refine pills, make talismans, and occasionally study the method of upgrading spiritual treasures.

After all, he only has one phantom in his hand. If there is any omission in the promotion process, he will probably have no chance to regret it.

Unconsciously, four years had passed, and the fourth-grade middle-grade spiritual medicine he cultivated had once again reached great maturity.

"It's time to leave and return to the Eastern Wasteland!"
