Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality

"The estimate of 9 golden elixirs is not much," said Master Ziyuan. "I used my spiritual sense to explore the area around Lingchao Lake and found that there was no locust within 500 miles around, which means that the defense line of this family power reaches thousands of miles."

"So big? It can still survive intact in the locust tide. Even our Xingyi City can't do it!" A cultivator exclaimed.

"They don't even bother to let us cultivators from Xingyi City go to the front line. If we are teleported to other shelters, I'm afraid the first thing they will do is to pull us to the front line as cannon fodder."

Master Ziyuan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, they just asked us to provide them with some front-line supplies, including elixirs and talismans, and they bought them at a fair price. Only big forces can have such grace. In the future, everyone must strictly abide by the rules of Xianmao Valley. Treat the cultivators of Xianmao Valley, especially the ten clan elders, with courtesy, try their best to refine elixirs and talismans, and repay the loans as soon as possible."

Zhang Xuan here didn't know a lot of things they had imagined.

At this time, Zhang Xuan was trying to practice Leihuo Baoyuan Gong.

He had indeed practiced many techniques before, but the only Qi-refining technique he had was the Heavenly Fire Technique.

The Heavenly Fire Technique was only a low-grade technique of the Xuan level.

The lower the level of the technique, the slower it would be to practice.

When he was in the Qi-refining stage, the Heavenly Fire Technique relied on a large amount of practice resources to help him reach the foundation-building stage.

However, after entering the foundation-building stage.

Even though he took a lot of pills, more than a year later, the Heavenly Fire Technique still remained in the early stage of the foundation-building stage.

The limitations of the low-grade Xuan-level techniques were immediately reflected after he entered the foundation-building stage.

The Thunder and Fire Embracing Yuan Technique bought from Master Ziyuan was a mid-grade technique of the Earth level, four small levels higher than the low-grade Xuan-level techniques such as the Heavenly Fire Technique.

Zhang Xuan naturally chose to switch to practicing the Thunder and Fire Embracing Yuan Technique without hesitation.

"The Thunder and Fire Embracing Yuan, transformed into a ball of brilliant purple air, penetrated the Three Pure Ones above, penetrated the Six Paths below, the whole world, the universe, mixed into one, and the Great Dao was formed..."

He followed the formula of the Thunder and Fire Embracing Yuan Technique and began to absorb the fire attribute aura and circulate the body meridians.

An hour later, when his first small cycle was completed.

He found a faint purple air in his red sea of ​​qi.

Zhang Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It is indeed a ground-level technique. Just by absorbing external fire-attribute spiritual energy, a trace of purple air can be condensed in an hour, which is much faster than the Heavenly Fire Art."

He ate half of the second-level fire-vulnerable golden pill.

The magnificent fire-attribute spiritual power was transformed and circulated around the body.

Zhang Xuan continued to practice the Thunder Fire Embracing Yuan Gong, circulating these fire-attribute spiritual powers in the small cycle and injecting them into the sea of ​​qi.

Two hours later, he finally absorbed the spiritual power of the second-level fire-vulnerable golden pill.

This time, with the help of the golden pill, he circulated three small cycles in one breath.

The wisp of purple air generated in his sea of ​​qi was already very eye-catching.

He mobilized this wisp of purple air.

The purple air appeared at his fingertips.

It was a small flame with lightning.

"Go!"

He pointed over, and the purple air flew out.

"Pah--"

A stone table made of spiritual ore was torn into pieces.

"So powerful!"

Zhang Xuan exclaimed.

His Heavenly Fire Art can also launch fire-attribute attacks, but it is definitely not as sharp as this small purple flame.

After only three hours of practice, it can exert such power.

This made Zhang Xuan very happy.

Of course, the reason why Leihuo Baoyuan Gong can be mastered all at once is inseparable from his heavy accumulation of the early stage of the Heavenly Fire Art.

Both techniques are fire-attribute techniques.

His Qi Sea has been widened many times, and the fire-attribute spiritual power has been compressed many times.

After the foundation of the Heavenly Fire Art, he has not entered the middle stage of the foundation for more than a year.

The accumulation of fire-attribute spiritual power in the Qi Sea is far beyond that of ordinary people.

It is precisely because of this deep accumulation that he is so handy when changing techniques.

Now, after only three hours of practice, the generated ball of light and purple air is already very powerful.

It cannot be compared with his sword art such as the other shore of flowers.

However, Zhang Xuan believed that in time, the radiant purple air would become his ultimate weapon.

Next, Zhang Xuan continued to take the second-turn Fire Void Golden Pill and practice the Thunder Fire Embrace Yuan Gong.

Half a month passed.

Zhang Xuan looked at the fist-sized ball of radiant purple air in his hand and fell into deep thought.

One good, one bad.

The good news is that in the past half month, he has been practicing the Thunder Fire Embrace Yuan Gong while taking the second-turn Fire Void Golden Pill, and his progress is amazing.

The radiant purple air has accumulated from the size of a fingertip to the size of a fist now.

The power it exerts is even more extraordinary.

The bad news is that he has only practiced for half a month and has reached a bottleneck in practice.

Just two days ago, no matter how many second-turn golden pills he took or how much fire attribute spiritual power he absorbed, the radiant purple air never increased by half a point.

"Is the effect of the second-turn Fire Void Golden Pill over?" Zhang Xuan thought.

The practice of the Thunder Fire Embrace Yuan Gong made him worried.

However, the changes in the Eye of Time in the Dharma Eye Huiguang Diagram made him happy.

The white emulsion inside is not used up all at once, but will continue to accumulate over time.

Now the white emulsion accumulated in the pit of his Eye of Time has far exceeded that at the beginning.

Zhang Xuan estimated that it would be a problem to refine dozens of lotus seeds of the Nine-Child Spirit Lotus into spiritual objects.

Now, half a month has passed since the monks from the Xingyi City Shelter were accepted.

According to the time calculation, Master Ziyuan should have refined the first third-level talisman.

"It's time to collect the goods."

Henry Zhang called Zhang Sanqian over.

"Uncle Sanqian, how are things going on the island in the middle of the lake these days?" Henry Zhang asked.

"Temple Master, it's a great thing. It's only been half a month, and we have harvested as many as 50,000 first-level low-grade elixirs from the island in the middle of the lake."

"50,000?" Henry Zhang was also shocked by the number.

If 50,000 pills were to be refined, based on their average alchemy level of 10 pills per furnace, 5,000 furnaces would be required.

"There are only 200 monks who can make alchemy. Each of them can make 25 alchemy furnaces in half a month. Why don't they stop practicing?" Henry Zhang was confused.

It is not surprising that someone with profound spiritual power like Zhang Xuan, or someone like Zhang Ergeng who is crazy about elixirs, would refine multiple furnaces of elixirs in one day.

However, for ordinary Qi refining monks, it is good to be able to refine one batch of pills every day.

Who would spend more than half of their time refining alchemy every day?

"They really stay in their room refining elixirs every day and never leave the house, let alone leave the island."

"This is too hard, can they hold on?"

"Many of them are monks in the middle or late stages of Qi refining. Although refining elixirs takes time, their spiritual consciousness and spiritual power can still sustain them."

"Did I set the Lingshi loan interest rate too high, allowing them to be exploited like this?" Henry Zhang said, scratching the back of his head.

"The temple owner is kind-hearted. The interest rate is already very low. I see them working so hard. The interest rate is one aspect. The more important thing is that they have been trapped in the underground shelter for more than a year. They have run out of spiritual materials. They are at the end of their rope. I am afraid of poverty. That’s why we try to earn cultivation resources at all costs.”
