The Jinzhao Huozhong had slimmed down a bit.The Qi Hai Ling Li had grown somewhat stronger.After the first round of refining was complete, Xu Xiaoshou stopped.
It was much easier than he had imagined, and all the earlier worries seemed unfounded...
Xu Xiaoshou was puzzled. Had the Jinzhao Huozhong weakened?No...No!
He walked seriously to the door of the room, letting the evening wind blow his clothes. He placed a finger on his forehead, looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with infinite loneliness.
"It's not that the Jinzhao Huozhong has weakened, it's me...""I've gotten stronger!"
Whoosh.The cold wind brushed his sleeves as if rain was imminent. Xu Xiaoshou felt he had truly grasped the essence of "high places are not without cold."
After a long time, he came back to his senses.Since the threat from the Jinzhao Huozhong was no longer an issue, he decided to slow down the refining process. His goals shifted from initially refining the fire seed to earning passive points, and...To successfully cultivate Jinzhao Tianfen!
Undoubtedly, this was a powerful Ling Ji, and its straightforward cultivation method was exactly what Xu Xiaoshou wanted.His eyes grew firm as he sat down cross-legged again, enduring the pain while his body once more sprayed out red mist.
Absorb!Spray out again...Absorb again!Spray out again......
Perseverance was a great asset, and Xu Xiaoshou's had been forged by illness in his previous life.As long as he committed to something and there was hope, no matter how painful, he could see it through!
As time passed, the volume of the fire seed inside his body shrank repeatedly, and the passive points in his mind skyrocketed.
"Passive points: 43,220.""Passive points: 53,449.""Passive points: 64,122."
Night fell, and the last trace of scorching power was swallowed by Xu Xiaoshou into his Qi Hai. The Qi Hai Ling Li surged wildly, as if it was about to overflow.
"Success!"
Xu Xiaoshou opened his eyes, his gaze seeming fiery.He felt the surging power within his body. This real sense of growth was just as satisfying as recklessly spending skill points.
Above the Qi Hai, the Jinzhao Huozhong had indeed vanished, but the cultivation progress of Jinzhao Lingyuan was only about eighty to ninety percent complete...
"This dead old man, he must have calculated even this!"
Xu Xiaoshou pulled out a bottle, which contained another Jinzhao Huozhong...His face wrinkled—it felt like homework that would never end...
"Damn it!"
He sat down again, not even wanting a break. He glanced at the sky and resolved to grind out the Jinzhao Lingyuan before sunrise.Swallowing the third Jinzhao Huozhong, he sat cross-legged to refine it once more.
The night was quiet, the wind gentle, and outside, a misty fine rain began to fall.If Sang Lao were here, he would likely be shocked once again by this guy's terrifying perseverance.He had given the third Jinzhao Huozhong, but never imagined this fellow would plan to refine two in a single day!This went beyond mere perseverance—anyone who could pull that off might be a masochistic freak!
"Sizzle~"
As the red mist sprayed out, Xu Xiaoshou immersed himself again.
"Under attack, passive points +1.""Under attack, passive points +1."...
Each burning of his body, accompanied by waves of pain, also brought a trickle of passive points.
"Passive points: 73,322.""Passive points: 81,008."...
Time slipped by, and the misty Ling Li in the Qi Hai gradually thickened, with the red-red hue swallowing the colorless and edging toward a critical point.Xu Xiaoshou knew that when the misty Ling Li fully condensed, that would mark the success of Jinzhao Lingyuan!
With only the last few mouthfuls of Jinzhao Huozhong left, Xu Xiaoshou suddenly exhaled, ignoring the pain as he instantly dissolved it and merged it into his own Qi Hai.
"Boom!"
In that instant, the Qi Hai shook violently. The Ling Li completely contracted and solidified, transforming into red-red Lingyuan that rampaged inside.A wave of spiritual energy burst forth, breaking through!Refining Spirit Nine Realms!
Xu Xiaoshou seized the momentum, swallowing a Lianling Dan and blending it into the red-red Lingyuan. The "Breathing Method" continuously transformed it, fully stabilizing his realm.The Lingyuan cooled down, shifting from red-red to a pure, ancient white, completely at peace.
"Huff~"
Xu Xiaoshou exhaled lightly, his expression excited.Success!Jinzhao Lingyuan, white in color, its energy overbearing, with super high temperature—unmoving like a mountain, moving like thunder!
Xu Xiaoshou tried mobilizing the Lingyuan in his body. Even just a trace contained thick, scorching energy several times greater than before.Covering it on his fingertip and poking toward the ground, to his surprise, the stone melted before his finger even made contact.
"So awesome?"
Xu Xiaoshou was shocked. This attack strength had visibly surged!If enhanced with "strong" and "sharp," the effect...
"Tsk tsk!"
Xu Xiaoshou secretly clicked his tongue. With his acquired cultivation mastering an innate fire attribute power, and such an overbearing Jinzhao Lingyuan, he absolutely counted as a genius, right?
"Next up is condensing Jinzhao Tianyan."
According to the jade slip, Jinzhao Tianyan was the prerequisite for completing Jinzhao Tianfen.White Lingyuan surged forth, gathering in his palm, and the room's temperature suddenly turned scorching.With his intent controlling the Lingyuan, he exerted all effort to compress it. Xu Xiaoshou could feel the overbearing energy in his palm crazily converging to a single point.
Sweat beaded on his forehead, and Xu Xiaoshou didn't dare relax. He maximized his "Perception," carefully monitoring every shift of energy in his hand.This thing could explode if mishandled—he valued his life too much!
With precise control and constant adjustments, the white energy in his palm soon condensed to its limit and abruptly vanished.
"Puff puff."
Xu Xiaoshou clearly heard a few sounds of sparks fluttering.He looked at his palm; visually, there was nothing, but under "Perception," it was a mass of extremely compressed, violent energy.
Jinzhao Tianyan, colorless and transparent, occasionally showing white sparks, capable of burning anything!
The jade slip described it that way, but Xu Xiaoshou wasn't sure if it was an exaggeration. He thought for a moment and took out a spiritual crystal.This item was as hard as rock and had high energy density, making it ideal for testing.
Xu Xiaoshou held the spiritual crystal high with his left hand and positioned the invisible energy below with his right. However, before he could lower it, wisps of mist began to drift out.
"This..."
Xu Xiaoshou was secretly shocked and let go.
"Sizzle!"
The spiritual crystal fell freely, and when it was still a few feet from his palm, it instantly vaporized, releasing dense spiritual energy.
"Holy shit!"
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned. This was terrifying—a transparent flame with such extreme high temperature was impossible to defend against!
With a thought, he drew the flame back into his Qi Hai, and even the vaporized spiritual crystal energy surged into his body.This was the "Breathing Method"—not a drop wasted, all absorbed!
"Ah~"
Xu Xiaoshou moaned comfortably as the energy entering his body eased much of the fatigue from his night of intense cultivation.He clenched his fist; everything was proceeding smoothly. To complete this powerful Ling Ji, only the final step remained...
