Great Immortal With Boundless Mana
Chapter 149: God Becomes The Red Dragon
Chapter 149: God Transforms into a Crimson Dragon
The dancing crimson dragon transformed into streams of flowing light and slowly dissipated. Gao Xian also regained his clarity, but he could still faintly hear the deep dragon roar in his ears...
Gao Xian knew that the crimson dragon did not actually produce any sound. The dragon roar he heard was just a mysterious change in his spiritual perception.
The Law Manifestation of the condensed crimson dragon looked even more majestic than Lan Jie.
However, the crimson dragon was ultimately just a Law Manifestation formed by the condensation of spiritual perception. It could greatly enhance the power of spiritual perception, but it couldn't compare to Lan Jie's divine abilities.
The radiance on the Fengyue Mirror converged and condensed, revealing the annotation for the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique.
Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon Technique: God transforms into a crimson dragon, swallowing the moon and transforming endlessly. (40,000/40,000, Grandmaster Perfection)
Just by looking at the annotation on the Fengyue Mirror, it was difficult to understand the purpose of the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique.
After witnessing the demonstration on the Fengyue Mirror, Gao Xian knew that the most powerful transformation of the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique was the condensation of spiritual perception into a crimson dragon.
In this state, his spiritual perception would be greatly enhanced and would be difficult to be shaken by external forces.
Through methods such as copulation, he could also absorb the life essence and spiritual perception of the other party and convert it into his own power.
The crimson dragon specifically restrained Yin-based spiritual perception and mana. For example, evil spirits and female cultivators were all within its range of restraint.
The Law Manifestation of the condensed crimson dragon was similar to Lan Jie's, but it lacked the same divine abilities as Lan Jie. It completely relied on Gao Xian's control and couldn't hold the scripture on its own.
What was very strange was that Lan Jie and the Law Manifestation of the crimson dragon could coexist and simultaneously strengthen his spiritual perception.
This state consumed his spiritual perception abnormally, and he could only maintain it for a maximum of ten breaths.
After conducting a comprehensive comparison in the Heart and Mind Temple, Gao Xian realized that although the Law Manifestation of the crimson dragon was strong, it still couldn't compare to Lan Jie's Law Manifestation. This was a fundamental difference.
The Grandmaster Perfection level of the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique had the most direct benefit of increasing his lifespan by twenty years.
At this point, his lifespan had already reached 247 years, comparable to a Foundation Building cultivator.
This was also the result of many secret techniques layering upon each other, resulting in such a long lifespan.
For Gao Xian, a lifespan of 247 years represented that his body and soul were both strong and healthy, in an excellent state.
Another direct benefit of the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique was that it further enhanced his spiritual perception by thirty percent.
Through the combined support of the Zhengyang Spear and the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique, his spiritual perception now had a radius of two hundred and twenty steps, with a maximum unidirectional range of five hundred steps.
This meant that his maximum casting distance reached five hundred steps. However, the farther the distance, the weaker the spell's power, and the worse his control over the spell.
According to the normal classification of the Foundation Building stage, only mid-stage Foundation Building cultivators could have a spiritual perception radius of two hundred steps.
In other words, his spiritual perception level was now equivalent to the mid-stage of Foundation Building, much stronger than Xu Lingyun, Zhang Chunjiang, and other early-stage Foundation Building cultivators.
Unfortunately, he was still far behind in other aspects and couldn't directly confront Foundation Building cultivators head-on.
With the continuous upgrade of secret techniques, Gao Xian's spiritual perception had greatly improved. He still needed time to adapt to these changes and understand the Zhengyang Spear and the Crimson Dragon Swallowing the Moon technique.
When Zhu Qiniang returned home at night, she saw Gao Xian meditating in the bedroom, his expression calm, and even carrying a hint of relaxed ease.
She was a little surprised that the news of Gao Xian's bet with Zhang Chunjiang had already spread, but she didn't expect Gao Xian to be so calm and indifferent.
She asked softly, "A Xian, what are your plans?"
Gao Xian opened his eyes and smiled at Zhu Qiniang, "I have two secret techniques that specialize in countering evil spirits. Zhang Chunjiang wants to trap me, but he will only bring disgrace upon himself."
"After I pass this test, I will show him a good lesson."
Zhu Qiniang nodded. She didn't know what secret techniques Gao Xian had practiced, but she knew that Gao Xian possessed extraordinary abilities, allowing him to defeat a Foundation Building cultivator with his Qi Refining cultivation.
Since Gao Xian was well-prepared, dealing with mere evil spirits should be a piece of cake.
She said, "The sect has sent me to the Nanluo Mountain Range to exterminate demonic beasts. It will take at least three to five months."
"They really don't give any leeway and directly sent you away."
Gao Xian thought for a moment and said, "You need to be careful and not give these people any opportunities."
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Chunjiang and the others wouldn't dare to make a move against Zhu Qiniang.
But if Zhu Qiniang were injured, the situation would be unpredictable.
Although Lianyun City was large, there were only a few hundred thousand cultivators in reality, and the market was limited.
The popularity of Tian Gui Dan and Lu Jiao San had taken a significant share of the low-grade pill market. If he earned one spirit stone more, others would earn one spirit stone less.
In the long run, it blocked the financial path for many people.
He and Qiniang had no foundation or connections in the Lianyun Sect, naturally arousing jealousy and resentment from others.
The problem was that they had no way out either.
At this time, as long as they showed a slight sign of retreat, the surrounding wolves would immediately pounce.
This was how cultivation worked. If you didn't advance, you would regress.
Qiniang had mentioned this principle to him several times, and he had a deep understanding of it.
Zhu Qiniang nodded. Apart from Gao Xian, she had a deep sense of wariness towards everyone else.
Even trusted confidants like Da Niu and Zhu Ying, she didn't fully trust.
"Don't worry, I know what to do. I'm just worried about you."
Zhu Qiniang expressed her concerns, "The evil spirits in Da Jiang Fang are very powerful, and you should also be cautious of others taking the opportunity to ambush you..."
Gao Xian was about to speak when he suddenly felt something. Streams of mana naturally condensed towards his liver.
He couldn't help but feel delighted. After his spiritual consciousness had greatly improved, it naturally propelled the Great Five Elements Technique forward, allowing him to break through the bottleneck of the seventh layer.
Gao Xian closed his eyes and fully activated the Great Five Elements Technique.
Mana circulated throughout his body, gathering at the position of the Zhangmen acupoint, and an invisible spiritual aperture was naturally opened.
The spiritual aperture sank inward, continuously absorbing mana until it formed a stable structure, and the previously absorbed mana was once again circulated.
At this point, the spiritual aperture at the Zhangmen acupoint connected with the other six spiritual apertures, simultaneously breathing in and circulating mana.
When Gao Xian opened his eyes, the window paper was already slightly bright. He had actually cultivated throughout the night.
Zhu Qiniang, who had been quietly guarding by the side, saw Gao Xian wake up. A genuine smile of joy appeared on her face, "You've advanced to the eighth layer of Qi Refining. Congratulations!"
Gao Xian sighed and said, "It's a bit unexpected that I advanced to the eighth level of Qi Refining so quickly."
With the assistance of the Qingyuan Tree Leaf, his cultivation progressed rapidly. Combined with the compatibility of the Wood-type spiritual energy with the Rejuvenation Technique, he had already sensed the opening of his liver meridian two months ago.
However, he wasn't in a hurry to break through because, after all, in the later stage of Qi Refining, it was necessary to stabilize the foundation.
Today, his divine sense had been strengthened twice in a row. Under the stimulation of the powerful divine sense, his liver meridian, which had already been accumulating momentum, naturally opened up.
With an additional powerful meridian channel for breathing in spiritual energy, and in coordination with the other six meridian channels, his magical power increased by about seventy percent, and the efficiency of his magical power operation also improved.
This level of magical power was still incomparable to that of a Foundation Building cultivator, but it was enough to be proud at the Qi Refining level.
Advancing to the eighth level of Qi Refining also increased his lifespan by three years.
This was also because his lifespan had reached the level of Foundation Building, and the lifespan gained from advancing in Qi Refining became very limited.
In simple terms, the base was too large, and each advancement became very difficult.
Having just completed the advancement, Gao Xian felt a sense of upward momentum throughout his body and mind. Between breaths, he felt as if he could fly into the sky.
This was also due to the nourishing vitality of the Wood-type spiritual energy converted by the liver meridian.
Looking at Zhu Qiniang again, he could see a faint glow of magical power emanating from her whole body, pure and radiant like a divine being.
At this moment, he finally felt the joy and happiness of a cultivator. Cultivators could sense the supreme Dao of heaven and earth externally, and internally, they could understand their true selves. With their immense willpower and strength, they could transcend the river of time and enjoy the pleasures of life between heaven and earth. How blissful it was!
Compared to this, all disputes seemed so boring.
However, in order for cultivators to enjoy the pleasures of life between heaven and earth, they needed endless resources to support them.
Without fighting or snatching, where would the resources come from?
In this world of cultivators, even the endless spiritual energy between heaven and earth had owners.
For cultivators without abilities, even taking a breath of spiritual energy required a price!
This was an era of great competition!
Thinking of this, Gao Xian calmed down. Of course, it would be great to enjoy life between heaven and earth, but he didn't have the qualifications.
It was like lying on a yacht and watching the sunrise, but the premise was that you had to have a yacht and the money to maintain it!
Gao Xian said to Zhu Qiniang, "Qiniang, how many spirit stones do I have now?"
Most of the profits from selling Deer Horn Powder and Tian Gui Pill were in Zhu Qiniang's hands. The main purpose was to maintain the operation of the Longevity Hall, so they couldn't just withdraw all the profits.
Zhu Qiniang said, "Including the ten thousand spirit stones compensated by Xu Lingyun, we have a total of thirty-nine thousand spirit stones. We can currently mobilize thirty thousand spirit stones."
In fact, Zhu Changsheng had contributed several second-grade magical artifacts, with a total value of about fifty thousand spirit stones. She had exchanged them for suitable sword and robe artifacts.
She remembered all of this, but she couldn't convert them into spirit stones at the moment, so there was no need to mention it.
Gao Xian nodded and said, "I can't wear the Red Iron Robe. It would be troublesome if someone saw it. The Azure Cloud and Profound Ice Robes are not considered top-notch. I want to buy a first-grade top-quality robe."
"And buy one or two top-quality protective magical artifacts, a few life-saving spirit pills, and some powerful talismans..."
Zhu Qiniang said, "Let's go to the Yunshui Tower in the morning. It's a branch of the Azure Cloud Sect here. They have top-quality items, but the prices are high."
Yunshui Tower traveled a long way to Lianyun City to do business, selling high-quality goods.
Ordinary cultivators definitely cannot afford to consume.
Zhu Qiniang bought her sword and magic crown at Yunshui Tower, spending tens of thousands of spirit stones.
After one transaction, Zhu Qiniang and the manager of Yunshui Tower became acquainted.
As soon as she and Gao Xian entered Yunshui Tower, the manager, Yun Chenglin, eagerly came out to greet them and warmly led them to a private room upstairs.
Yun Chenglin had fair skin, spoke softly and politely, and had a hint of familiarity in his politeness. He was very good at dealing with people.
When Gao Xian mentioned his requirements, Yun Chenglin took out several catalogs with illustrations of magic tools, indicating their grade, material, and characteristics.
Yun Chenglin smiled apologetically and said, "It's a small business. The goods will only be delivered after the customer decides to buy. And a ten percent deposit is required in advance. If the customer changes their mind, the deposit will not be refunded..."
Gao Xian glanced at Zhu Qiniang, and she nodded slightly. This was how Yunshui Tower did business.
There was no other way. Yunshui Tower's magic tools and elixirs were of high grade and hard to find elsewhere.
After much deliberation, Gao Xian finally selected several items and paid a deposit of one thousand spirit stones.
The next day, the items were delivered.
The Qingyuan Ruyi Magic Robe, priced at five thousand spirit stones.
The Liuyang Demon-Repelling Golden Shuttle, priced at three thousand spirit stones.
The Heavenly King's Eight Treasures Pill, one thousand spirit stones per pill, totaling four pills.
Gao Xian paid a total of eleven thousand one hundred spirit stones on the spot and received all the items.
Back at home, Gao Xian changed into the Qingyuan Ruyi Magic Robe and carefully studied the various changes of the two magic tools.
The Qingyuan Ruyi Magic Robe was a top-grade first-grade item, woven with Qingyuan Spirit Vine and ten thousand-year Ice Silkworm Silk.
It contained three types of spells: Qingyuan Shield, Ruyi Transformation, and Nectar Spell.
The Qingyuan Shield had extremely strong defense, comparable to the Golden Light Technique. It also had the ability to isolate impurities and purify spiritual energy.
Its unique dual-layered Qingyuan Shield could enhance its protective ability to the maximum.
What Gao Xian valued most was the ability of the Qingyuan Shield to resist wind, which greatly increased his speed. This was very suitable for him.
The Ruyi Transformation allowed the magic robe to change its form at will, making it very suitable for stealth and escape.
The Nectar Spell had the ability to detoxify, ward off evil, and heal injuries.
The Liuyang Demon-Repelling Golden Shuttle had the appearance of a golden shuttle-shaped pendant. When activated, it would transform into a five-inch-long golden shuttle, which was extremely effective against evil spirits.
The six yang powers of the golden shuttle itself could form a natural protection, without the need for deliberate activation to resist impurities from evil spirits.
Finally, the Heavenly King's Eight Treasures Pill was a life-extending elixir. As long as one didn't die on the spot, taking one pill could sustain their vitality.
After fully mastering the transformations of the two magic tools, Gao Xian used the Shadowless Robe technique one day and left Zhu's mansion.
He used the Transformation Technique to transform into an ordinary-looking man and boarded the Qingmu Flying Ship bound for Dajiang District...
