My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 520 Planning
Shen Changchuan was unaware of some of the changes that had occurred outside.

At this time, he

We have already returned to Dawancun.

With his master's flying boat capable of traversing space, the journey that would normally take at least two months by the fastest flying boat was shortened to just a few days.

This saved Shen Changchuan a lot of time.

After bringing Shen Changchuan back, the master didn't linger. He simply told him to cultivate diligently before leaving.

Perhaps it was in the Southern Yue region; he had been away for quite some time and needed to go there to continue overseeing the situation and prevent a counterattack from the Demonic Alliance.

Or perhaps there are other important matters to attend to.

He didn't tell Shen Changchuan the specifics.

But in short,

You Longzi has already left.

Upon returning to Dawancun, Shen Changchuan visited his maternal grandfather, mother, and other relatives.

After confirming that nothing unexpected had happened during his absence,
They all breathed a sigh of relief.

Okay,

The worst-case scenario did not occur.

During his absence, no one dared to cause trouble in the surrounding area.

Everything was peaceful.

However, it doesn't seem difficult to understand.

After all, his master had shown himself once before he left and had given him a warning.

A being at the peak of the Divine Travel Realm,
I doubt anyone else would dare to refuse.

not to mention,
Before leaving, the master had also set up a formation around Dawan Village.
It's estimated that no one else has the ability to break into a magic array set up by a peak Divine Travel Realm being.

"But why did those people suddenly go silent?"

"They came under orders; they shouldn't give up so easily, right?"

"Moreover, the top powers from other regions aren't sending their strongest personnel into the Southern Region, but rather their own elite talents. This seems rather strange."

It's good that Dawancun wasn't attacked.

But Shen Changchuan couldn't help but have some worries.

They worried that those people were secretly plotting something detrimental to them.
"Forget it, let's ignore them."

The underground intelligence in Dawancun also yielded no clues; the available information was too limited to make any deductions.

Shen Changchuan could only shake his head and put it all behind him.

"Without concrete information, all we're doing right now is creating trouble for ourselves."

"Whatever their conspiracy, we'll just deal with whatever comes our way."

Shen Changchuan let out a long breath.

A confident glint shone in his eyes.

"I have now broken through to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage. With my current strength, I am fully confident that I can defeat those geniuses from the outer realms!"

"Even if there is power beyond the norm, I still have the trump cards given to me by my master, so it's not a big problem."

"Right now, the most important thing is to improve our own strength as much as possible!"

"The ruins of the Xiangshan Sect's mountain gate, a blessed land for enlightenment, a spatial slash."

Shen Changchuan pulled the many thoughts out of his mind.

The general plan for the next steps has been established.

but,

Shen Changchuan was not in a hurry to leave Dawancun and head to the entrance on the map that Shen Chong had given him.

It's obvious without even thinking.

There must be quite a few informants around Dawancun now.
They wanted to uncover the secrets of the former Xiangshan Sect ruins from him.

Countless eyes were secretly watching him. Shen Changchuan wasn't stupid.
It's not like I would run over there right after I got back, when everyone is watching.

He certainly didn't want to attract a group of competitors when he entered the Xiangshan Sect's mountain gate ruins.

"We still need to think of a way to get away with it from their sight."

For a time,

Shen Changchuan fell into deep thought.

It's easier said than done.

Shen Changchuan couldn't think of any good ideas to cover things up for a while.

Fortunately, he's not in a hurry for the time being.

Speaking of the gains from the breakthrough and advancement in the Spirit Transformation Pool, he hasn't actually fully digested them yet.

However, the overwhelming amount of follow-up matters, including the necessary tasks of entering the Immortal Sect's Scripture Pavilion to collect various body-refining methods, forced him to temporarily divert his attention.

Now is the perfect time to spend some time catching up and fully digesting all the insights gained from cultivation and breakthroughs within the Spirit Transformation Pool.

and,

Although he had already refined and fused the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu,
However, Shen Changchuan has not yet properly tested them, and it is still unknown what level they can achieve.

I've made up my mind.

Shen Changchuan then fell silent.

He peacefully secluded himself in Dawan Village to cultivate his spiritual practice.

Time flies by,

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Shen Changchuan spent most of his time digesting and absorbing the various insights he gained from the Spirit Transformation Pool.
some of,
This also brought Shen Changchuan considerable gains.

Especially with the ample supply of cultivation resources such as spirit stones, his cultivation level steadily improved, and he made a small progress.

This small improvement is not much; it's just a small step forward. There's still a considerable distance to go before reaching the mid-stage of the eighth level.

But this is something to be happy about.

Improving one's cultivation level is not something that can be achieved overnight. It requires gradual accumulation, bit by bit, until it eventually flows into a mighty river, and only then can one step by step reach the peak.

That's how you achieve a stable cultivation level.

After digesting what he gained from the Spirit Transformation Pool and fully mastering the power of the eighth level,

Shen Changchuan then focused his time on refining and fusing the Golden Wind Jade Dew Gu.

After spending several days trying and making adjustments to adapt,
He eventually gained a general understanding of the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu after its fusion and refinement.

After using the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu in overclocked mode, his cultivation level was able to rise to the peak of the eighth level in one fell swoop, and his strength increased dramatically.

However, at the same time,

This state can only last for about an hour during intense battle. Continuing beyond that will cause significant damage to the body and may even leave behind hidden injuries that are difficult to heal.

and,

Because this is due to the surge in power caused by overclocking, under that state, his control over his own magic power will be reduced to a certain extent, and he will no longer be able to use magic power as easily as before.

But there is also good news.

That is, in that state, he is able to use perfect second-tier spells, and he can cast them instantly.

This may be because he has already refined and fused the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu.

The worm fused with the spine and became one.
Therefore, even when overclocked, it is still possible to instantly cast second-tier perfect spells.

at this point,
This is something that Shen Changchuan couldn't do in the past.

Before refining and fusion
Although his magical power level surged, the rampant magical power was also difficult to control. At that time, he could only fight his enemies by violently unleashing his magical power and was unable to cast perfect second-tier spells.

In comparison,

The benefits of refining and fusing are self-evident.
