Yunhua took out a bottle of Rejuvenation Pills, controlled it with his divine sense, poured it into his mouth, and quickly chewed several pills. The violent primordial energy was refined by Yunhua with difficulty and directly injected into the Primordial Calamity Light.
Thus, Yunhua and the Wolf King were locked in a strange stalemate. Just then, two surviving Azure Moon Wolves gathered moon blades in their mouths, preparing to attack Yunhua.
The energy fluctuations drew Yunhua's attention to two Azure Moon Wolves preparing to attack her, and Yunhua smiled gently.
"Wolf King, don't blame me for being despicable. Hesitation will lead to defeat." Yun Hua's Sharingan spun wildly, directly controlling the two Azure Moon Wolves. The moon blade aimed at Yun Hua struck the Wolf King heavily in its despairing eyes.
The Moon Wolf King was sent flying by the Moon Blade, and was then caught up by Yunhua's Primordial Calamity Light, which pierced through its body.
Chapter Sixty-Two: Second Transformation of the Golden Core
Yunhua looked at the dead wolf king and breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately dispersed the chaotic tribulation light and hurriedly took a pill to restore his true essence.
After refining the Restoration Pill, Yunhua's condition recovered to some extent. Subsequently, the primordial energy continuously supplied by the dimensional embryo also made Yunhua no longer weak.
The two crippled Blue Moon Wolves, controlled by the Sharingan, were forced to deliver a Moon Blade to each other before dying.
Yunhua first collected the useful parts of the broken Moon Wolf King, dug out the hard-won sixth-order magic core, and then collected six fifth-order magic cores and eight fourth-order magic cores.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Yun Huaqiang dragged his tired body back to the valley where Xian'er was. This trip could be considered a fruitful one.
"Brother Yun, how did you get hurt?" Xian'er saw that Xiao Yun was fine when he went out for breakfast, but when he came back, he was shirtless, covered in blood, and had three scratch marks on his back.
"It's alright. We encountered a pack of wolves led by a sixth-tier wolf king, and suffered some minor injuries. We just slaughtered them all," Yun Hua said calmly.
"Come in quickly, let me apply the medicine for you." Xian'er looked at the open wound, her eyes welling up with tears.
Pulled by Xian'er into the wooden house, Yunhua took out the Healing Pill and swallowed it. He then gave the Muscle Regenerating Powder to Xian'er, who applied it to the wound on her back. After that, she wrapped it with bandages and put on her outer clothes.
"Alright, Brother Yun, don't go out these next few days. Just stay home and recover from your injury," Xian'er said firmly.
"Okay, I will take good care of my injuries. By the way, is there anything you don't understand about the Myriad Poison Scripture? I'll explain it to you."
"It's alright. I've already reached the first level of Qi Refining. I'll refine some poisons and consume them these next few days, and I'll be able to improve quickly."
"You must be careful not to consume too much or too toxic poison before you have condensed the runes, otherwise it will be difficult to suppress the poison in your body."
"I understand, I'll be careful. Maybe I'll be even stronger than Brother Yun by then," Xian'er said confidently.
Back in his cabin, Yunhua sat cross-legged on the bed, focusing all his energy on refining the medicinal power within his body and circulating the Resurrection Technique. Soon, new flesh began to grow on the wound on his back, and it slowly healed.
This battle wasn't without its gains. Having experienced the near-draining of his Golden Core, Yunhua was now well on his way to the second stage of the Golden Core realm, and he also gained inspiration to further improve his Chaos Calamity Light divine ability.
The next day, Yunhua still did not go out. Instead, he stayed indoors to adjust his condition to its best and then incorporated more law runes to strengthen this divine power.
The previous Chaos Calamity Light only incorporated the three attributes of wind, thunder, and fire. This time, Yunhua incorporated the earth attribute, making it even more powerful.
Following this, the golden core within his body began to devour a large amount of the primordial energy of heaven and earth, in addition to the large amount of directly usable primordial energy provided by the dimensional embryo.
Yunhua's golden core began to slowly rotate, and its size grew larger and larger. Eventually, Yunhua broke through to the second stage of the golden core, and his strength was further enhanced.
Yunhua felt that if she were to encounter the Moon Wolf King again, she would not be in such a sorry state, and she might be able to easily take the wolf king's head in just a few moves.
A few days in the cave are equivalent to a thousand years in the world.
Yunhua emerged from seclusion once again. What seemed like a short breakthrough had actually taken three days. Yunhua walked out of the wooden house and looked at Xian'er, who was still inside. Yunhua could sense that Xian'er was breaking through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
Before long, Xian'er successfully broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining. Her speed was incredibly fast, advancing a small realm every day. This was only because Xian'er suppressed the number of times she took the poison and the toxicity of the poison.
Yunhua couldn't help but sigh. This kind of physique might have many drawbacks, but it could reach the peak in a short time, which was much better than those who wasted their whole lives at low levels.
"How about that? Brother Yun, I'm amazing, right? I've already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining." Xian'er said proudly, tilting her head back.
"Amazing! Xian'er is the best! Didn't you want to learn alchemy? How about I teach you?" Yunhua's alchemy skills don't require fire and wood attributes like those of alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent.
Yunhua combined the strengths of Dou Qi Continent and Mortal Cultivation Legend to create this alchemy technique that is easy to learn but has a high potential.
In fact, it is the result of Yunhua's improvement of the alchemy classics and localization, so that they can adapt to the laws of this world and combine the advantages of alchemy methods from other worlds.
Yunhua obtained a sixth-order magic core, several fifth-order magic cores, and a large number of magic cores below the fourth order. In addition, the medicinal herbs he had collected earlier were enough to refine pills to help him break through to the third stage of the Golden Core realm and some pills to assist in cultivation.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Yun." Xian'er said happily. Ever since she poisoned her mother and the villagers, she had wanted to learn how to save people, and becoming an alchemist was her goal.
Yunhua began to teach Xian'er the medicinal herb illustrations and alchemical texts he had collected, while he himself prepared some low-level medicinal herbs for Xian'er to practice with.
Yunhua went out and came to the nearby Qingshan Town, a place where mercenaries who mingled on the outskirts of the Monster Mountain Range gathered and traded.
The main attractions here are people, low-level medicinal herbs, and low-tier magic cores. Along the way, Yunhua encountered many mercenaries coming and going.
Some were covered in blood and their armor was tattered; these were people returning from the Monster Mountain Range. Others were arm in arm, drinking strong liquor and telling dirty jokes; these were people returning to release stress.
With his ten-year-old appearance and height, Yunhua attracted a lot of attention as he walked among them, because children in Qingshan Town were extremely rare. In addition, the imposing aura emanating from Yunhua deterred anyone from daring to provoke him.
Upon arriving at Wan Yao Zhai, the most popular medicine shop in Qingshan Town, Yunhua went inside. There were shop assistants and mercenaries haggling over prices, as well as people selling medicinal herbs.
Yunhua went directly to a shop assistant and prepared to buy some low-grade materials.
"Young man, what would you like to buy? Our Wan Yao Zhai has a complete range of products and a good reputation. It is the largest pharmacy in Qingshan Town," the shop assistant said enthusiastically, not paying attention to Yun Hua's age. After all, Yun Hua's luxurious clothes indicated that he was no ordinary person.
"Give me this list of low-grade medicinal herbs, one hundred of each. Can you collect them all?" Yunhua handed over a list of the medicinal herbs she needed.
"No problem, our shop will prepare it for you right away. Please have a seat for a moment. Someone, bring some tea." After looking at the order, the clerk found that they were all common, low-grade medicinal herbs. Apart from the large quantity, there were no other requirements.
Soon, a shop assistant arrived with a group of servants, carrying several large bundles filled with sorted medicinal herbs.
"These are the medicinal herbs you requested, one hundred portions of each. Please feel free to inspect them. May I ask if you are an alchemist, young man?"
"Hmm, the herbs are fine. I'm just a beginner in alchemy." Yunhua opened and checked each herb, confirming that the quality was good.
"That'll be twenty-six gold coins and seventy-eight silver coins in total," the shopkeeper said immediately, noticing that Yunhua wanted to pay and leave.
"Here you go, keep the change." Yunhua tossed out twenty-seven gold coins and put the medicinal herbs into his storage ring.
Chapter Sixty-Three: Two Years
Yunhua returned to the small valley with the medicinal herbs and began to teach Xian'er how to process them and identify their properties. At the same time, he also taught Xian'er the art of spirit fire and how to practice alchemy techniques and skills.
Three months later, having mastered this knowledge, Xian'er was able to begin trying to refine pills.
"Xian'er, let me refine a Rejuvenation Pill first, and you can take a good look."
Yunhua took out the alchemy furnace and sorted the medicinal herbs.
"First, we'll use the Spirit Fire Technique to preheat the alchemy furnace. The preheating temperature varies for each type of pill, depending on the properties of the first medicinal herb added." Yunhua took out a medicinal herb, and once it was preheated to the appropriate temperature, she put it into the furnace.
"At this point, we need to control the temperature, remove the impurities from the herbs, slowly extract the active ingredients, and then pour the liquid into a jade bottle to begin processing the next herb."
"After slowly extracting the medicinal liquid from all the herbs, we will use the corresponding magic cores. The magic cores contain a lot of vital energy, but they are all quite violent."
"The alchemist's job is to slowly neutralize the raging energy of the demonic core with various medicinal liquids, while gradually infusing the demonic core with the medicinal liquids used to manifest the effects of the elixir."
"Finally, after the medicinal liquid has been fully fused, the pill-collecting technique is used to solidify the pill and contain its medicinal properties. In this way, the pill is successfully made." Yunhua explained the refining process step by step in great detail.
"This is the alchemy method of the Dou Qi Continent. The demon core contains the remnant soul of a demon beast. The remnant soul of a demon beast that is hunted and has its demon core taken will cause the demon core's vital energy to become chaotic."
This is why high-grade pills can develop sentience and even try to escape; therefore, this type of alchemy is based on a demonic core.
After Yunhua demonstrated it once, he handed it over to Xian'er to do herself, while Yunhua provided guidance from the side.
It is obvious that Xian'er has a good talent for alchemy. Perhaps it is because of her Calamity Poison Body. All medicines have some degree of poison, and she has a very accurate grasp of the properties of medicinal materials.
Under Yunhua's guidance, he managed to refine it successfully on his first attempt, albeit with some difficulties, but it wasn't perfect and the quality of the pill was relatively low.
In the following months, Yunhua watched as Xian'er went from being hesitant and awkward to becoming proficient, and soon she had refined all the first-grade pills more than once.
With Yunhua's help, Xian'er was soon able to refine third-grade pills independently. With the use of these pills and the ingestion of poison, Xian'er broke through to the fourth level of the Dao Foundation Realm in just a few months.
After confirming that Xian'er could refine pills independently, Yunhua began to refine pills suitable for his own use, including one pill to break through to the third stage and some pills to help him improve his cultivation.
Fifth-grade pills were fine; Yunhua refined them easily. However, sixth-grade pills were not as good as them, as it was Yunhua's first time refining them, and the medicinal materials and magic cores were hard-won.
Yunhua repeatedly deduced the refining process and practiced his alchemy skills. Finally, after two months of extremely risky work, he successfully refined this rank 6 pill, which was not of very good quality, but its medicinal properties were not compromised.
Two years passed quickly.
In the past two years, Yunhua has often gone out to fight against sixth-tier magical beasts in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Some of them were spared by Yunhua, while others, ungrateful for his kindness, became raw materials for Yunhua to refine sixth-grade pills.
Two years later, Yunhua successfully broke through to the third stage of the Golden Core realm. Even seventh-tier magical beasts could be matched by Yunhua, which means that Yunhua's actual combat strength was basically invincible at the Dou Zong realm.
Xian'er, who frequently ingested elixirs and various poisons, also successfully reached the first stage of the Golden Core realm and developed a remarkable supernatural ability: the Myriad Poisons Extinguishing Spirit Mist, an area-of-effect attack that covered a range of over ten miles, filled with various poisonous gases.
The poisonous gas will devour the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy), preventing those trapped from recovering their fighting spirit and causing them to lose their way.
Yunhua felt that unless one possessed a special technique or physique that could counteract poison gas, any being below the Dou Zun level would likely be slowly worn down and killed once they entered the poison circle.
However, this poison circle could not harm Yunhua at all, because the new attribute that his Hunyuan Tribulation Light incorporated was Xian'er's poison attribute.
Any poisonous gas will be absorbed by Yunhua's golden core after entering her body, turning into nourishment for unleashing the Primordial Calamity Light.
Not only poison, but also the previous lightning, wind, fire, and earth attributes—as long as the runes for these elemental attacks are not as numerous as Yunhua's, these elemental attacks will be ineffective against Yunhua.
However, those with fused attributes are another matter, such as different types of fire or self-created attributes. These have stronger damage and are an important guarantee for fighting against opponents of higher levels.
In the past two years, Yunhua has also been refining pills frequently. However, due to the limited availability of materials, he can only refine seventh-grade pills, and he has very few pill formulas, all of which he has deduced himself.
Xian'er's alchemy skills have also improved rapidly. She is now able to refine fourth-grade pills, but the success rate is not high, only a little over 30%.
Yunhua's combat abilities have also improved rapidly, not only thanks to the various Heavenly Rank combat skills he created during this period, but also thanks to the selfless contributions of many magical beasts in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
With these magical beasts as sparring partners, Yunhua's strength was enhanced, and his wealth was also increased, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
It can be said that almost all the sixth-tier magical beasts in this magical beast mountain range have been beaten by Yun Hua more than once, and most of the seventh-tier magical beasts have also suffered at Yun Hua's hands, with some even moving away with resentment.
For example, the Purple-Gold Winged Lion King who appeared in the original work was forced to leave her homeland to give birth in order to find a stable environment.
Moreover, during this time, Yunhua, who had traveled all over the Monster Mountain Range, also discovered four opportunities, some of which were inheritances left by predecessors, and some of which were rare and precious treasures.
One of them was that after Yun Hua defeated a seventh-tier magical beast, the Devouring Lion, he discovered the Ten-Thousand-Year Earth Core Tempering Liquid in its cave. This discovery directly strengthened Yun Hua's physical body to the Dou Zong level, allowing him to shake space with his physical body alone.
Secondly, at the bottom of a cliff, they discovered a senior who had passed away in meditation. From his body, they found a high-quality storage ring with tens of thousands of cubic meters of space, as well as a strange fire that was not recorded.
Although the storage ring was large, it didn't contain much. There was a mid-level Earth-rank cultivation technique that this senior had practiced, the Nine Howls of Heavenly Wind, along with a matching Earth-rank combat skill. Yun Hua simply memorized it and incorporated it into his own foundation.
There were also several million gold coins and some precious ores, which were better than nothing for Yunhua.
As for this strange fire, it is an unknown strange fire that is not among the twenty-three strange fires. Its name is Soul-Devouring Demon Fire. It was born in the Nine Netherworld Ghostly Land. On the day of its birth, it absorbed boundless ghostly energy.
The function of this strange fire is very simple: it devours souls. Whether it wants to possess you or attack you with your soul, it will be devoured by the Soul-Devouring Demon Fire.
Yunhua had to refine a pill to devour and refine the strange fire in order to obtain it. Only after risking her life and having her soul devoured did she manage to refine the strange fire.
It also took a long time to analyze the laws of this strange fire, making it a divine power in the Golden Core stage.
There was no way around it; this strange fire was too effective against the Soul Clan. Yunhua, who was prepared for this, directly prepared this great gift for the Soul Clan.
The third opportunity was a broken metal piece, on which was recorded a Heavenly Rank Soul Combat Technique: Soul Distortion.
This Heavenly Rank Soul Combat Technique can only be used with difficulty by Yunhua's divine soul, and it can corrupt the enemy's soul.
Chapter Sixty-Four: Blackrock City Alchemist Examination
This soul combat technique is extremely insidious. Anyone whose soul realm is lower than Yun Hua's will go mad and die violently after being hit by it.
Yunhua's soul essence is extremely high; it is a genuine Heavenly Realm soul. Nowadays, very few people cultivate their souls; only alchemists and the Soul Clan have powerful souls.
However, alchemists' souls are at most at the Spirit Realm level, and only a few high-level Dou Sheng of the Soul Clan have Heaven Realm souls. Therefore, when Yun Hua used this soul fighting technique, his strength basically reached the ceiling of the Dou Qi Continent.
The fourth opportunity was something Yunhua discovered underground. At the time, Yunhua had just defeated a seventh-tier magical beast and was preparing to dig a tunnel to rest.
The excavation uncovered the skeleton and magic core of a ninth-tier magical beast, the Rock Star Python. This type of magical beast was already extinct and possessed a powerful talent for manipulating gravity.
Yunhua directly dug out a snake skeleton that was over 10,000 meters long, and put it all into his storage ring. Although the skeleton of this Rock Star Python had been dead for over 10,000 years, its quality had not decreased but increased.
For thousands of years after its death, the Rock Star Serpent's bones continuously absorbed the essence of the earth, becoming extremely hard and forming a repulsive shield.
Yunhua estimated that the bones of the Rock Star Python could be used to forge top-grade spiritual weapons, capable of withstanding several attacks from a nine-star Dou Sheng. And so many bones would be enough for Yunhua to arm an entire legion.
Most importantly, this Rock Star Python, which died of natural causes, left behind its ninth-order magic core. Because it died of natural causes, the primordial energy within it was not chaotic. Instead, after tens of thousands of years of sedimentation, the primordial energy became extremely smooth.
Simple refining can be used to improve one's cultivation level, but for Yunhua, that's secondary. The most important thing is that this ninth-order magic core contains the complete talent skills of the Rock Star Python.
These innate skills are usually destroyed before a monster dies, but this innate skill is directly a divine ability of a high-level Heavenly Rank combat skill.
This supernatural power is called Gravity Domain. It can control gravity within a certain range, which greatly enhances combat. Imagine yourself as light as a swallow, while your opponent feels like they are carrying a mountain on their back.
This divine ability was also engraved on Yunhua's golden core, and Yunhua comprehended the laws and runes within it.
The Three Divine Powers removed the bottleneck for Yunhua's breakthroughs in the fourth, fifth, and sixth stages of the Golden Core realm.
Yunhua plans to leave this place. With his current strength, he can no longer gain experience here. Yunhua plans to take Xian'er to Black Rock City.
"Are you all packed? We're about to leave," Yunhua asked Xian'er, who was busy collecting her savings.
