Cultivation: I can solidify equipment attributes

Chapter 601 Condensing Essence and Nourishing Infant Pill

In the secluded meditation room, Li Yuan sat cross-legged on a stone platform, the complete sequence of skeletal dragon patterns unfolding in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Eighty percent of the deciphered content is presented in bright blue and white in the sea of ​​consciousness, while the remaining twenty percent is hidden in dark gray.

The dark gray portion is concentrated in the latter part of the sequence, which is also the core cultivation mechanism of the entire technique.

As time went by, the decoding progress climbed from 80% to 85%.

Li Yuan stopped at the 85% mark.

It wasn't that he was stuck, but rather an unexpected discovery that made him temporarily put aside the decoding.

During the deciphering process, the contrast between the combination logic of dragon patterns and the rules of human spirit pattern combination deepened in his mind. Each successful deconstruction reinforced this comparative understanding, and the transformation bridge between the two completely different pattern systems was becoming clearer and clearer.

This transformational understanding is not one-way.

Some of the design ideas behind the dragon pattern combination logic, in turn, inspired Li Yuan's understanding of the human spirit pattern system.

The method of aura resonance superposition used in the nesting of dragon patterns can be applied to the design of spirit patterns in human talismans, making the connection between spirit patterns tighter and the loss of spiritual power transmission lower.

The mastery of talismans was continuously promoted in this process.

Li Yuan continued deciphering.

With each new symbol deciphered, the understanding of the transformation between dragon patterns and spirit patterns deepens. The two systems are like two parallel rivers in the sea of ​​consciousness, previously flowing independently and unrelated, but now they are converging at more and more points.

When the number of intersection points accumulates to a certain critical value, a clear resonance is generated in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Mastery of third-tier talismans.

The changes at the mastery stage were immediately reflected in the deciphering of the dragon patterns.

After mastering talismans, one's understanding of the underlying principles of spirit patterns reaches a new level. This depth, in turn, makes the previously undecipherable parts of dragon patterns more transparent.

Of the remaining ten-plus dragon patterns that were not deciphered, several combination symbols were quickly broken down by the level of understanding achieved at the mastery stage.

The decryption progress has been pushed to nearly 90%.

After deciphering to the limit, Li Yuan put away the dragon pattern data.

The primary task at present is to obtain the Qi Condensation and Infant Nourishing Pill.

The permanent entries such as "Minor Success in Alchemy," "Minor Success in the Blazing Sun and Bright Fire Technique," "Comprehension of Alchemy Principles," and "Refining of Alchemy Fire" are fully enhanced. The array of Heavenly Pivot provides auxiliary understanding of the compatibility logic, and the compatibility network of the Condensing Yuan and Nourishing Infant Pill formula has been thoroughly studied and memorized.

The conditions are sufficient.

Li Yuan took out the jade box containing the Condensing Essence and Nourishing Infant Grass from his personal miniature world.

The jade box was opened, and a spiritual plant about half a foot tall lay quietly in the protective layer of spiritual energy.

The Ningyuan Yunying Grass is translucent milky white in color, with extremely fine but numerous roots, resembling a fluffy ball of white silk threads.

At the top of the stem is a round seed about the size of a thumb, with dense spiritual veins faintly visible on its surface.

The spiritual energy density of spiritual plants in the upper realm is indeed far greater than that of their counterparts in the lower realm.

The seven auxiliary materials have also been prepared and placed one by one on the stone platform.

The furnace platform was set up, and the fire of alchemy was lit.

The dual-source structure of the Blazing Sun Flame Technique at the minor completion stage operates, resulting in a pure and stable flame.

The first step is the pretreatment of auxiliary materials.

The seven auxiliary materials were added to the alchemy furnace one by one in the order required by the formula.

The second step is to invest in the main materials.

Li Yuan took the Condensing Essence Infant Grass out of the jade box and wrapped it with spiritual power.

The grass trembled slightly under the influence of spiritual energy, and the rich spiritual energy stored in its roots began to slowly seep out.

The medicinal properties of the auxiliary materials in the alchemy furnace are continuously increasing. The main materials should only be added once the degree of integration reaches a precise threshold.

The permanent entry on alchemical principles played a crucial role at this moment. The precision of his perception of the degree of medicinal fusion allowed Li Yuan to track the threshold change curve in real time.

The degree of integration is approaching the threshold.

Three breaths.

Two breaths.

Take a breath.

cast.

The Condensing Essence and Infant-Nourishing Grass fell into the alchemy furnace.

The herb contracted rapidly the moment it came into contact with the medicinal liquid containing the auxiliary materials, its roots changing from loose to tightly intertwined, enveloping the seed in the very center. At the same time, the spiritual veins on the surface of the seed lit up, releasing an extremely concentrated milky-white medicinal power.

The interaction between the drug's potency and the excipient fusion solution is intense and rapid.

With the stimulation of the alchemical fire.

The milky-white embryo slowly took shape in the center of the medicinal liquid.

The condensation stage.

Li Yuan applied extremely gentle spiritual energy compression to the pill embryo. The compression force needed to be precisely controlled; too much would disrupt the medicinal balance inside the pill embryo, while too little would fail to squeeze out excess impurities.

The embryo gradually solidified from a hazy mist into a solid state.

A very thin layer of luster appeared on the surface.

The lid of the alchemy furnace was lifted.

Two pills lay quietly at the bottom of the furnace.

Two pills were produced, of medium to high quality.

The first attempt at refining a Tier 3 superior-grade pill yielded two medium-to-high-quality pills. The combined effect of the minor-level alchemy skill and multiple permanent attributes exceeded expectations.

Li Yuan took out a Qi Condensation and Infant Nourishing Pill.

Blue grade.

Touch the surface of the pill with your finger.

[Equipable item detected: Qi Condensation Pill]

[Equipment Attribute Preview: Nourishing Infant Essence (Blue)]

[Effect: Increases the success rate of Nascent Soul Formation by 30%, slightly improves the quality of the Nascent Soul during Nascent Soul Formation, and increases cultivation speed in the early Nascent Soul stage by 80%]

[Preview of Permanentization Conditions: Equip this pill to break through to the Nascent Soul stage once (0/1)]

Blue entries.

The condition for permanentization is equipping this pill and breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. It is a one-time condition; once the Nascent Soul stage is successfully achieved, the effect is permanent.

Do not equip for now.

Three pills are needed. One is used to acquire the attribute bonus from equipment, and two are consumed to obtain the medicinal effects of the pill itself.

Take one pill as a rehearsal.

Li Yuan took one of them out and put it in his mouth.

The pill entered the abdomen, and its milky-white medicinal power dissolved within.

The medicinal power did not spread along the meridians, but instead surged directly into the dantian area, forming a warm and moist medicinal film around the golden elixir.

The moment the medicinal membrane came into contact with the surface of the golden elixir, an extremely unique sensation surged from the dantian.

The rehearsal for the formation of the infant begins.

Consciousness sinks into the dantian.

Li Yuan sensed a simulated infant formation process.

The medicinal membrane served as a rehearsal medium, simulating a complete spiritual energy circulation mode switch around the Golden Core with extremely low spiritual energy consumption.

The switching of spiritual energy circulation mode was completed during the rehearsal.

The spiritual energy within the Golden Core no longer radiates outward from the Golden Core itself, but instead begins to contract and condense towards its center. The condensed spiritual energy forms an extremely tiny, dense point at the center.

The nascent form of a primordial spirit.

The nascent nascent soul in the rehearsal only existed for a few breaths before dissipating. The medicinal membrane could not support a simulation for any longer.

But that number of breaths is enough.

The rehearsal went perfectly.

The depth of his own knowledge and experience exceeded expectations.

The physical body's ability to withstand damage is greatly enhanced after mastering the Supreme Golden Elixir, reaching the peak of density, mastering the Nascent Soul Condensation Technique, and mastering the Spirit Body Forging Technique.

The combined effect of multiple permanent attributes on the quality of spiritual power and the precision of control made the Nascent Soul formation process during the rehearsal almost completely unimpeded.

The more crucial gain lies in the direct experience of the Nascent Soul stage spiritual energy circulation mode during the rehearsal.

Previously, when Li Yuan observed Zhou Heng's Nascent Soul spiritual power circulation near the spatial passage, the permanent blue attribute of the Mysterious Nether Pearl had already given him a clear structural understanding of the Nascent Soul stage spiritual power circulation.

The rehearsal elevates this understanding from observation to firsthand experience.

Although it only took a few breaths, every detail of the switching of spiritual energy circulation mode was completely recorded in the sea of ​​consciousness. The starting point of the switch, the intermediate transition state, and the final stable state were all clearly visible.

The combined effect of the advance perception of the Xuan You Pearl entry and the practical experience of the rehearsal deepened my understanding of the circulation of spiritual power in the Nascent Soul stage.

The spiritual energy path of the Nascent Soul Technique resonated under the impact of this deeper understanding.

The method of condensing the infant spirit has reached a minor level of mastery.

Li Yuan opened his eyes.

Two more are needed to officially form a Nascent Soul. One is an equipment that grants the Nascent Soul Nourishing and Essence-Gathering attribute bonus, and the other is a medicinal pill that increases the success rate of Nascent Soul formation.

One is missing.

To refine another batch, you need the main ingredient, Condensing Essence and Nourishing Infant Grass.

The Condensing Essence Infant Grass can only be exchanged for contribution points through the Mingyuan Sect's resource channels.

Li Yuan calculated his current contribution point balance.

After exchanging for pill formulas and main ingredients last time, my balance is not much left, and I'm still a bit short of exchanging for another Condensing Essence and Nourishing Infant Grass.

The difference is not significant.

Once I've accumulated enough contribution points, I'll exchange them for the main ingredients to refine the second batch of Condensing Essence and Nurturing Infant Pills.

Li Yuan stored the remaining Qi Condensation and Infant Nourishing Pill in a different area of ​​his personal microcosm and closed his eyes to continue cultivating.

The third-order spirit-gathering array within his body operated stably, and spiritual energy silently flowed in.

The cultivation of the Nascent Soul Formation Technique at the minor completion stage unfolded within the sea of ​​consciousness, with the planned tempering sequence continuously optimized through repeated deductions.
