Chapter 43 Improving Cultivation (3.5K)

After Zhang Shuo initially completed the practice of the Three Emperor Scriptures, he was ready to break through the realm. After all, the Taoist Palace Secret Realm had reached its current limit, and it was time to start the practice path to the next secret realm.

The Four Poles Secret Realm is a tempering of the human body's limbs. The left and right hands and the left and right feet, the limbs of the body correspond to the four directions of heaven and earth, east, south, west and north, connecting the limbs with the four poles of heaven and earth, the body is connected with the Tao, and the cultivation is thorough.

The evildoers at this level will encounter thunder tribulations, so Zhang Shuo cannot break through in the cave. However, he needs to make some preparations for the cultivation in the Four Extreme Secret Realms to help himself reach the extreme of each realm.

Zhang Shuo checked the Yin-Yang Divine Spring Pool in the space to see if the petrified divine medicine had recovered. After his trip to the Green Emperor's Tomb, he added the collected divine source and spiritual spring into the Yin-Yang Divine Spring Pool. With the blessing of the divine source, the divine medicine soon recovered completely.

The World Tree of Immortal Elixir turned into a seed, the Azure Dragon Immortal Elixir seed successfully grew into a magical medicine in the shape of a small Azure Dragon, the Suzaku Immortal Elixir also successfully revived, the Stone Gall completely evolved into the Golden Stone Gall, the Human Yuan Fruit grew into the Earth Life Fruit, the Nine Wonderful Immortal Elixir split into small saplings, the Bodhi tree also grew a lot, the ginseng fruit given by the formation spirit also grew into a sapling, and the petrified fruit also revived. It was the fruit of the Black Tortoise Immortal Elixir, also known as the Long Live Divine Medicine, and it also successfully grew into a small Black Tortoise.

Zhang Shuo now has extremely abundant resources in his hands and has successfully collected the Four Symbols Immortality Elixir, which are also the resources he needs to lay the foundation for his cultivation in the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

But now, except for the White Tiger Immortal Elixir which has ready-made fruits, the other Four Symbols Immortal Elixirs are in the seedling stage, so it is impossible to obtain the fruits of the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir for cultivation.

Zhang Shuo made a careful deduction and concluded that he could first catalyze other immortality elixirs without fruits to obtain young fruits with the secret of the immortality elixir. He needed the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir to practice the Four Poles Secret Realm mainly to obtain the secret laws of the Four Symbols Divine Beasts. Young fruits without immortality substances would also be fine.

Zhang Shuo mobilized the power of the Chaos Green Lotus in his body, and controlled the power of the Creation Law of the Creation Jade Disc. Combining a large amount of source, he used formations and source techniques to arrange a Creation Vitality Array to help catalyze the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir to grow and bear fruit.

Zhang Shuo did not care about the cost and used a large amount of source stone essence to catalyze three fruits of the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir. Together with the fruit of the White Tiger Immortal Elixir, he completed the ultimate essence of the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir.

Zhang Shuo used the alchemy techniques he learned from the "Taoist Classics" to refine the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir Fruit, combined with other precious medicines to make the Four Symbols Divine Pill, which can maximize the power of the Four Symbols Immortal Elixir Fruit.

Afterwards, Zhang Shuo refined a large number of precious pills as resources to break through the Four Extreme Secret Realms, as well as some pills for Lin Jia and Weiwei to use for their daily practice.

Alchemy is extremely powerful in assisting cultivation. Before, with Zhang Shuo's ability to utilize medicinal materials, he could only refine some liquid medicine at most. Now, through alchemy, he can fully utilize the medicinal effects of the medicinal materials. Various medicinal materials are harmonized and combined according to their properties to achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two. Moreover, by using the special Taoist method of alchemy, the power of heaven and earth is integrated into the elixir to make the medicinal effect even more powerful.

This is really good news for Zhang Shuo, a good man who is "thrifty and frugal". He already has abundant resources, so now he doesn't have to worry about the burden of a large family in the future.

Zhang Shuo said, "Master, I can afford it, so come and eat it in my bowl."

After completing the preparations, Zhang Shuo immediately left the cave and Lingxu Cave Heaven, and looked for a mountain that was remote and quiet enough nearby, preparing to break through the Four Extremes Secret Realm and survive the thunder tribulation.

Zhang Shuo used the Jade Disc of Creation to seal off the surrounding space to prevent his breakthrough from making too loud a noise and being discovered by other cultivators. Although there would not be any danger, after all, Zhang Shuo would be fine even if he went to the restricted area to dance and knock on the grave of an ancient supreme being, but Zhang Shuo hated trouble.

After all, if Zhang Shuo's qualifications were exposed, it would definitely attract the attention of the entire Beidou. At that time, all major forces would regard Zhang Shuo as a thorn in their eyes, which would cause Zhang Shuo to encounter a lot of trouble.

Moreover, this would make it extremely difficult for Zhang Shuo to steal other people's cabbages. He should try a few juicy cabbages before he becomes famous, otherwise people would protect them to death.

After a brainstorming session, Zhang Shuo sorted out his thoughts and began to set up some formations and source techniques on this mountain. You know, he will have to go through a tribulation next. This is one of the few opportunities to take advantage of God, and the thunder tribulation rich in energy cannot be wasted.

Arrange more formation source techniques to help Zhang Shuo better withstand this wave of thunder tribulation. Thunder tribulation is the concrete manifestation of the laws of heaven and earth, and it contains a large number of law fragments to be absorbed. These law fragments are also a great tonic for Zhang Shuo.

After making good preparations, Zhang Shuo sat on the peak of the mountain, practicing the "Hunyuan Immortal Scripture" to break through the realm. Today's "Hunyuan Immortal Scripture" has absorbed the essence of the five great emperor scriptures, "Tianmo Art", "Qingdi Sutra", "Tao Sutra", "Taiyin" and "Taiyang", and was created based on Zhang Shuo's own special physique.

Zhang Shuo's five great divine treasures rang out together, and the sound of the great Dao chanting scriptures was heard, resounding through heaven and earth like a Huangzhong Dalu, causing the void around him to vibrate.

The gods of the five great divine treasures transformed into five-colored divine lights and displayed their divine power in the body. Zhang Shuo multitasked as he swallowed the refined elixir, which attracted a large amount of source stone to transform into dragon-shaped essence to cleanse his body.

The precious elixir enters the Taoist Palace and is directly refined into vital energy essence by the five-colored divine light to strengthen the Taoist Palace's divine storage. Until the Taoist Palace's secret realm can no longer bear this essence, the vital energy essence continuously flows to the limbs under the guidance of the five-colored divine light, and the limbs are continuously strengthened under the baptism of the vital energy essence.

At this time in the secret realm of Lunhai, in the Chaos Green Lotus located in the center of the Chaos Sea, the immortal fetus that had been in a gestational state was flashing with immortal light, as if it was about to be born.

Afterwards, the Chaos Green Lotus actually left the Wheel Sea Secret Realm with the immortal fetus and rushed towards the Taoist Palace Secret Realm. The five-colored divine light that guided the essence of vital energy in the Taoist Palace Secret Realm was summoned.

At the moment when the Chaos Green Lotus entered the secret realm of the Taoist Palace, the five-colored divine light entered the Chaos Green Lotus and combined with the immortal fetus.

"Squeak!"

There was a sound coming from the immortal fetus, and then a colorful human-like figure was born from the immortal fetus. This was the embodiment of Zhang Shuo's Taoism and the fruit of his cultivation.

After the divine form appeared, it began to frantically absorb the essence of heaven and earth. A large amount of essence in the source stone was absorbed, and the essence of vital energy that permeated the body was also absorbed by it, and endless source energy was immersed in it.

Suddenly, the little man began to grow, and his facial features and limbs became more specific and clear. When his limbs were fully materialized, he overlapped with Zhang Shuo's body, and divine light burst out from his limbs, connecting with heaven and earth. The immortal sound of the great way in Zhang Shuo's body became more magnificent, and his whole body was embedded in the void, faintly merging with heaven and earth.

Strange phenomena appeared all over his body, including the birth moon on the sea, the yin and yang Tai Chi diagram, the purple lotus planted in the chaos, the eternal fairyland, and three suns across the sky (Qi and blood). Various strange phenomena surrounded him, and at the same time, auspicious divine light suddenly appeared in the void, the Holy Spirit evolved, and all the ways of heaven and earth resounded.

The source stones and divine springs that Zhang Shuo had placed around his body were being absorbed crazily by his body. His limbs were devouring the source energy like a ferocious beast that had been hungry for a long time, and the medicinal power of the elixir in his body was also being consumed continuously.

His body suddenly caught fire, and divine fire erupted from the inside out, burning every bit of flesh, blood, and bone. All the burned places became transparent, and every pore in his body was bleeding. The blood that flowed out was evaporated by the flames. His bones made strange noises, then shattered and regenerated. His bone marrow produced blood crazily, and his whole body was reborn.

In this process of constantly changing bones and blood, and constantly repairing and recovering, he shed his old weight and was reborn. As a result, Zhang Shuo's existence was completely exposed to the world, of course, this was intentional.

As expected, when Zhang Shuo's existence was completely captured by Tianji, the world suddenly became dim, dark clouds covered the sky, and terrifying lightning flashed and gathered. In the blink of an eye, a pool of thunder appeared in the sea of ​​clouds.

"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"

The thunder in the sky struck Zhang Shuo madly as if it were free. A large amount of purple thunder turned into a sea of ​​thunder, constantly hitting Zhang Shuo's body.

"Oh my god, isn't this a bit exaggerated? They just want to kill me!" Zhang Shuo knew very well that this was not a simple four-pole thunder tribulation. To be precise, it was a manifestation of heaven's will and the determination of heaven and earth to destroy Zhang Shuo.

Zhang Shuo was just a little surprised about this, but not unexpected. After all, the Immortal Emperor fell from the fairyland into the Shrouding Heaven Universe, and his immortality substance and immortal bloodline were cut off by a single blow from God, not to mention that he, an outsider, was even more outrageous.

Previously, the Jade Disc of Good Fortune concealed the secrets of heaven, and the blood of the ancient holy body in his body protected Zhang Shuo from punishment by heaven. Now, Zhang Shuo's existence was completely exposed to the eyes of heaven and earth, and they spared no effort to destroy him.

Of course, this was exactly what Zhang Shuo wanted. Thunder tribulation was a good thing and it was rare to be struck by it, so he had to make the most of it.

Zhang Shuo directly activated the formation and source technique set up on the mountain, locked all the thunder, and then directly summoned the five-colored divine light in his body to brush towards the thunder.

The power of thunder also belongs to the five elements. Under the property of the five-colored divine light that it can sweep away everything, all the marks of heaven and earth are washed away, and the violent factors are removed.

Afterwards, the Dao Bottle in the Chaos Sea exploded with terrifying devouring power, swallowing all the thunder and refining it into the body. The thunder in the Dao Bottle was refined into pure thunder essence and released.

The essence of thunder was absorbed by the Wheel Sea Secret Realm and the Dao Palace Secret Realm, and the newly opened Four Pole Secret Realm also continuously introduced the essence of thunder, and finally it was drawn by the sea of ​​qi and blood to travel through the body to temper the blood and bones.

"Isn't this more refreshing than taking a hot spring bath? As expected, if a man wants to cover the sky, he has to take a bath in the sea of ​​thunder once to be considered a man of covering the sky!" Zhang Shuo said proudly in his heart while feeling the baptism of thunder.

It seemed that Zhang Shuo had not been harmed by this level of thunder. As if provoked, the thunder on the sea of ​​clouds increased crazily, and the second, third, and ninth terrifying thunder pools formed.

The nine thunder pools were like the Nine Heavens. All the thunder power in one thunder pool struck Zhang Shuo nine times in a row.

Zhang Shuo, who had been handling the situation with some ease, suddenly felt something was wrong. Even if the Five-Colored Divine Light was very powerful, it could not keep up with the oncoming thunder.

Seeing such a terrifying thunder tribulation coming, Zhang Shuo immediately opened fire at full power. Various strange phenomena in his body burst out with divine power. The sea of ​​blood surged wildly, attaching a layer of armor made of blood to his body. The Chaos Green Lotus in the Chaos Sea rushed out of his body and turned into a huge lotus that wrapped around Zhang Shuo. The Tai Chi Jade Wheel turned into a huge Tai Chi diagram to block the thunder, and the Yin and Yang Qi rotated continuously to refine and suppress the thunder.

Zhang Shuo's divine power exploded with all his might, and he used all the secret arts contained in the Emperor's Scripture like crazy, including the Demon Emperor's Nine Slashes, the Sun Burning the Sky, the Moon World, the Avenue Aquarius, the Dou Zi Secret, and other secret arts like crazy. He directly sacrificed the Hunyuan Immortal Sword and struck it into the Thunder Pool, taking on some of the power of the thunder tribulation, just as if it were a tempering.
Zhang Shuo used all his skills and various means to forcibly accept the test of the thunder tribulation in the nine-layer thunder pool.

But seeing that the thunder tribulation had not stopped and was about to come with another wave of intensity, Zhang Shuo hurriedly used the Jade Disc of Creation to cover up his own breath, leaving only the breath of the ancient holy body.

After losing Zhang Shuo's aura, the thunder in the sky began to gradually dissipate, and the terrifying thunder tribulation that was brewing began to stop and dissipate.

At this time, the void was shaking and the sky was undergoing strange changes, as if it was about to collapse. Lines of innate patterns appeared in the sky, interweaving together to form a Taoist picture, slowly pressing down.

"Great, the Innate Dao Diagram is finally here." Zhang Shuo deliberately left the aura of the Ancient Saint Body in order to induce the appearance of the Innate Dao Diagram. This Dao Diagram was a curse placed on the Ancient Saint Body by the ancient supreme being who used the Tongtian Mingbao to communicate with the world.

But its essence is the manifestation of the laws of the world. For Zhang Shuo, it is something particularly valuable. It allows Zhang Shuo to understand and absorb the laws of covering the sky to a great extent and improve his physique.

Zhang Shuo simply stopped pretending and directly ordered the Jade Disc of Creation to seal the Dao diagram. He then brought the entire Dao diagram into the Secret Realm of Wheel Sea and suppressed and refined it with the Tai Chi Jade Wheel.
