Chapter 454 Preparation
After seeing Zhan Hongxiu off, Fang Qing sorted through his spoils, carefully categorizing and storing the many ancient medicinal herbs.
Immediately afterwards, jade slips appeared in his hand one after another. With his current cultivation and level of expertise... he was quite confident that he could even break through to the Nascent Soul realm out of thin air.
To ensure absolute safety, numerous elixirs and secret techniques were prepared as an aid.
There's not much left in this world that can attract him.
He picked up a jade slip and discovered it contained experiences of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. He couldn't help but smile: "Was this something Master Da Zhi brought out from the Zhou Tian Star Palace back then? Uh... This one, having heard of Ji Ran Yuan, should have been wiped out by the Myriad Star Alliance this time..." He glanced at it a few times, then picked up the next jade slip. Inside was a Nascent Soul cultivation technique called "Qi Yang Shui Liu Jing"! It should be the Dao inheritance of the Water Moon Palace...
Fang Qing calculated the Nascent Soul inheritances he possessed. He only had his own cultivation of the *Stone Sea Technique* and the *Turtle and Crane Longevity Manual*. Adding another water-based technique would only provide some reference for the *Sea Devouring Technique*.
However... the cultivation techniques of Leiyin Temple are worth looking forward to. The lightning attribute cultivation technique I have can only reach the Nascent Soul stage at most. He picked up a cyan jade slip, entered it with his divine sense, and immediately saw a cultivation technique called "Heart Thunder Transmission Scripture". It was a lightning attribute Nascent Soul cultivation technique, but it could only be cultivated to the early Nascent Soul stage at most.
"Hmm... that's rather strange. Most of these Nascent Soul cultivation techniques can only be cultivated up to the early Nascent Soul stage. The descriptions of the subsequent stages are very vague, with only rough descriptions such as 'Refining the Spirit and Merging with the Dao'..."
Could it be that this new method, modified from the ancient one, has only just reached the Nascent Soul stage and not many cultivators have followed suit to improve it, thus the cultivation technique is not yet perfected?
Fang Qing's heart stirred, and he read the temple's sacred scripture word by word. Suddenly, he had a great understanding: "Shaking the universe, calling forth the Dharma lightning; so that's how it is."
If he wants to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, the Stone Sea Technique, which he has been cultivating all along, is naturally the most suitable.
However, after reaching the Divine Transformation stage, one needs to change their cultivation method.
Even judging from the experiences of the "Yuan Qu Envoy" and "Da Ri Long Feng Fu Yu Yuan Jun" of the Dao of Qi, it seems that even if a Nascent Soul cultivator ascends to the Immortal Realm, he or she will need to switch to a new cultivation method. This is also an opportunity to choose a lineage!
In the Dao of Qi Cultivation, once you choose a lineage, your allies and enemies are also determined.
Of course, mischievous characters like Fang Qing don't count!
"Transformation into Spirit, Refining Spirit and Uniting with the Dao. If this Qi Refining Dao technique were to develop independently for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, I wonder if it could innovate and reach a higher level?"
A thought popped into Fang Qing's mind: after all, the recent ancient calendar is only a little over 8,000 years old, while the ancient times are countless tens of thousands of years old, and the Primordial Era is said to be incredibly ancient.
"Who ordered the construction of this Primordial Heaven, and who built it?"
Judging from factors such as size and stability alone, even the Great Sun Buddha wouldn't qualify...
It is merely a creation of [the year's ruling].
I wonder what that [year-end official] is trying to achieve?
After a moment of contemplation, he sighed, "Never mind... I should hurry up and refine the 'Primordial Spirit Moon' so I can break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible."
Fang Qing's cultivation is now at its peak, his physical body has broken through ahead of schedule, and his divine sense is equally strong... It can be said that he has no weaknesses whatsoever.
With the added aid of elixirs, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is practically guaranteed!
one year later.
A series of lightning bolts struck down, targeting a strange pill, but Fang Qing stretched out his large hand and used his physical body to absorb them all.
"This 'Primordial Spirit Moon' truly lives up to its reputation as a fifth-tier pill; the heavenly snow it attracts is even more potent than that of a near-fifth-tier pill..."
The illusory golden scales on Fang Qing's chest shattered, revealing a charred wound from which blood even oozed...
He didn't care, took a deep breath, and the splattered blood instantly flowed back, the broken wound quickly healed, as if he hadn't been injured at all.
Over the past year, he has been immersed in the Guixu Sea Eye, and in addition to refining another "Yuanji Five Saints Pill", he has been studying the "Yuanshen Moon" pill formula.
Fortunately, the former is a simplified version of the latter, and after refining pills so many times, I have quite a bit of experience.
Therefore, although the 'Divine Ray Inner Core, Essence Blood and Spiritual Essence, and many ancient medicinal herbs were used as aids... it was ultimately a close call, and the core was successfully formed today!'
Once the "Primordial Spirit Moon" was formed, moon lightning naturally fell to temper Fang Qing's body and soul!
Having consumed most of the divine Kun's flesh... and undergone repeated tempering by heavenly lightning... I am now cultivating, and while I am not even at the lower fifth rank... perhaps I have already reached the middle fifth rank? At least I am extremely close...
Even without circulating the "Heavenly Life" divine power of "Wall Water," the physical body possesses self-healing abilities, similar to the "Indestructible Body" talent of demonic beasts!
After the tribulation passed, Fang Qing felt his water virtue and thunder power surge again. He changed his hand seal, and a strange milky white pill floated out, with only a golden pattern on its surface.
The Primordial Spirit Pill! It is still made primarily with the True Spirit Divine Essence of You Tianneng's bloodline. In terms of efficacy... it is no less than the original version by Zhou Daxingguan.
Fang Qing took out a jade bottle, carefully put away the "Primordial Spirit Pill," and went to Blood Fiend Island.
Boom!
Below, countless cultivators who witnessed this scene gaped in disbelief, unsure whether to feel joy or sorrow.
Having refined the Nascent Soul Elixir, the next step is to work on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Fang Qing moved to Blood Fiend Island, naturally in order to hide himself.
It's no secret that he refines pills at the Guixu Sea Eye; in case a powerful cultivator tries to interfere during his breakthrough.
Although protected by Tian Sha and Ming Yue, both in the late Nascent Soul stage, it was still somewhat insecure.
We cannot tolerate even the slightest danger!
Therefore, the best course of action is to relocate Blood Fiend Island, making it impossible for people to find their target.
As a place for breakthroughs, Blood Fiend Island has fourth-grade high-quality spiritual energy, plus mountains of top-grade spirit stones, which is barely enough.
Perhaps we shouldn't have chosen a specific location, but rather let Blood Fiend Island roam freely.
I'll slowly adjust my state, and when I'm ready to break through, I'll undergo the tribulation right here...
A thought popped into Fang Qing's mind.
However, before that, alchemy is still quite arduous, requiring a combination of labor and effort...
Several months later.
Inside the cave.
After tidying up, Fang Qing put down the jade slip in his hand.
"The key to Nascent Soul Transformation is first to achieve the perfection of one's own essence, energy, and spirit, and then to break through using a secret method... drawing in the spiritual power of heaven and earth to infuse the body. Once the breakthrough is successful, there are still three trials to overcome: the Tribulation of the Heart Demon, the Tribulation of the Five Elements, and finally, the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation!"
Most Nascent Soul cultivators struggle to even reach the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, and not all Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators possess the foundation and resources to take this step.
But for me, it's very simple...
Having read so many Nascent Soul stage experiences, Fang Qing was naturally well-prepared, having crafted some special magical artifacts and even cultivated corresponding secret techniques.
Although its effects are not as good as the "Five Saints Pill of Primordial Extremes" or even the "Six Harmonies Primordial Spirit Secret", it is better than nothing.
Needless to say, my magical power is already at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage... As for my Qi and blood, it's even closer to the mid-grade of the fifth rank and far surpasses it...
The same applies to spiritual consciousness, since the "Acala's Radiant Stages" involves cultivating both.
He sat cross-legged on the 'Pure Heart Imperial Group', with the 'Soul Nourishing Prayer Beads' placed beside him. These two were indeed treasures for the Nascent Soul stage, and were very effective even for Nascent Soul cultivators.
Although the improvements are extremely subtle on a daily basis, they accumulate over time and become exceptionally terrifying.
And this "Six Gods Netherworld Fragrance"...it's said to be quite beneficial for overcoming the inner demon tribulation of the Nascent Soul stage...
Fang Qing took out another emerald green incense stick and placed it in the incense burner in front of him, but did not light it…
These arrangements were obtained from the Water Moon Palace and the Thunder Sound Guardian, and even the materials used in their crafting were the same; it is said that they should have some effect.
His mind was clear and focused, and the mantra for the transformation of the "Swallowing the Sea Technique" silently appeared in his mind. With another flick of his sleeve, four strange jade bottles appeared.
Among them were two "Yuanji Five Saint Pills", one "Yuan Shen Pill", and a black jade bottle containing the nascent souls or inner cores of six great cultivators.
If any of these resources were to fall into the wrong hands, countless powerful cultivators would be envious and might even risk their lives for them!
Fang Qing always believes in taking comprehensive action to ensure preparedness.
If it comes to a critical moment, I'm willing to give up even the slightest chance of success, even if it means using up all of them.
Let's begin!
Time passed without him realizing it. When Fang Qing's mind had become completely calm, he opened a jade bottle, took out a "Yuanji Five Saints Pill," and swallowed it.
This kind of pill is ineffective with repeated use, and the effect is negligible with the second dose.
On the contrary, the 'Primordial Spirit Pill,' which is of a higher grade, can be taken later.
Boom!
Once this elixir entered the stomach, it was absorbed and rapidly refined by the boundless power of the "Sea-Swallowing Technique".
Within his dantian, Fang Qing, a powerful and imposing nascent soul with the appearance of a young man, formed hand seals and shouted, "Nascent Soul Transformation, Break!"
Splash!
Countless top-grade spirit stones nearby let out mournful cries and instantly exploded into dust.
An incredibly rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth emerged, elevating the spiritual energy of the cave to the fifth level.
Boom!
In a desolate sea, Blood Fiend Island landed on the seabed, triggering a massive tsunami.
"Emergency landing? This is..." Zhong Lingxiu flew out on her swift light and saw that many important figures, whom she rarely saw, had come out of their caves and were looking in the direction of Gong Liao's seclusion, their eyes filled with excitement and fervor.
"Is Young Master preparing to... transform into a Nascent Soul?" Qin Ruxue and Yu Xiang'er exchanged a glance. Although they knew that Young Master was no ordinary person, this scene still made their hearts surge with excitement.
"The Lord has ordered that all cultivators must not act rashly."
"Anyone who approaches the core area will be killed without mercy!" The Heavenly Fiend Master appeared, his divine sense sweeping across the entire island.
Within the Azure Sea Sect, Cui Zhe, having comforted his many disciples, clenched his fists, his heart pounding with emotion: "Grandmaster above... our Azure Sea Sect is actually about to produce a Nascent Soul Venerable!"
