My construction materials are weird

The Xuan Cat, possessing the bloodline of a beast king, combined with its nine divided souls, and with the help of insights into the bloodline and soul methods of the Blood Soul Realm, created an even more powerful spiritual beast breathing technique.

It also developed applications of bloodline and soul methods.

For example, directly imprinting its own demon core into the spiritual beast's soul as a suppressing object.

Like a nesting ring, its soul suppressing object is Xuan Huang's 'Xuan Huang Dao Lord Beast Controlling Diagram'.

The clever Xuan Cat, after combining them, directly entered the spiritual beast's soul to suppress it, based on the premise of its own powerful soul, just as Xuan Huang entered its soul to suppress it.

It's a nesting doll situation.

However, the effect is very good.

After direct imprinting, combined with the improved spiritual beast breathing technique, the spiritual beast is forced to strengthen its visualization object while cultivating.

The Qingyun Mountain cultivators of Xuan Huang cultivate on their own, while the spiritual beasts are forced to cultivate.

That is, the spiritual beasts cannot be autonomous, and half of the energy they obtain from cultivation must be taken out to condense the soul visualization object.

It is also based on its master's crowdfunding cultivation experience.

It's just more domineering, more like a puppet forced to learn.

However, the spiritual beasts don't think so.

They shouted in unison: "Long live the King, the King is invincible, the King…"

They didn't know how to cultivate in the first place, and they didn't have much wisdom. Now, under the King's coercion, they can cultivate and have even enhanced their wisdom.

What else can they say but long live the King?

Anyway, these spiritual beasts have no complaints, no 'beast rights,' or 'lack of freedom.' On the contrary, they are all very excited.

With the improved spiritual beast breathing technique, soul visualization technique, bloodline apotheosis technique, and so on.

The spiritual beasts burst out with strong vitality.

The reason for urgently summoning Xuan Huang is because of the 'Bloodline Apotheosis Technique'.

Because this technique requires the faith and incense of living beings to nurture.

Again, the spiritual beasts are not very intelligent, and they only gained a little wisdom after being coerced.

Asking them to apotheosize themselves, they don't have the brains to condense a powerful Dharma Image Divine Beast Diagram.

It requires the devout worship of human beings, imagining the power of the divine beasts, and then these spiritual beasts practice false to make it true according to human fantasy.

Including the Xuan Cat, it also needs the faith and incense of all living beings to practice false to make it true.

Living out the appearance that living beings hope for.

"I will personally handle the Xuan Cat later. Since it has done everything I asked it to do, it is time to apotheosize it," Xuan Huang said.

"By the way?"

He added: "The 'Apotheosis Technique' that I instructed you to do before, you can notify them to implement it. Has the main temple in Nanshi been completed?"

This was what Xuan Huang instructed before retreating into seclusion.

The Apotheosis Technique requires a temple as a coordinate, which is equivalent to a connection point.

In each temple, there must be a statue of Xuan Huang and a statue of a divine beast.

At the beginning, these statues are dead objects.

Then, after receiving the worship of living beings, they will slowly condense faith and incense. After reaching a certain level, the statues will give birth to spirituality.

Then Xuan Huang or the Xuan Cat can sense it.

After that, they can accept and absorb the faith, incense, and luck distributed in the temples everywhere.

At the same time, the soul seed will transform the aura of living beings, allowing a living being with no cultivation qualifications to have the same abilities as a cultivator through refining the soul seed.

It's just that this kind of cultivation method is bound to the divine beast before the fourth level, which is equivalent to borrowing the power of the divine beast.

Like a spirit master borrowing the power of the uncanny, they can only progress with the progress of the soul seed. If the divine beast abandons this living being, it will return to the starting point in one morning.

There are great constraints and disadvantages.

But no matter what, it is a path to change fate.

Those who are not devout cannot condense the soul seed, and those who condense the soul seed are extremely devout. It is a two-way rush.

Only when reaching the fourth level and the soul seed becomes real, can this living being be considered to have independent ability.

Regardless of what cultivation path, whether the body is refined to become real at the fourth level, or the Qi is refined to become real, or the soul is refined to become real, including the soul seed becoming real, the uncanny rules becoming real, etc.

The fourth-level true self is a transformation.

All paths lead to the same destination.

Cultivators of any method need to find their true self.

The true self covers: true method, true meaning, true spirit, etc.

Hearing Xuan Huang's inquiry, Sun Tong said, "The Confucian school said that it has been completed and is waiting for your order."

"Well, let's start with Nanshi to summarize experience. At the same time, let's start building temples in the controlled urban areas. Just follow the current standards, one main temple in each urban area. As for building more temples in the future, it completely depends on the will of each urban area."

One main temple in each urban area is a prerequisite, a coordinate.

But if there are too many people worshiping in one temple, and they can't handle it, they can build more.

As for individual worship, they can hang portraits at home.

But there is a prerequisite, it is best to cultivate in the main temple with a strong faith and incense to condense the soul seed, the environment here is more suitable for condensing the soul seed.

If the soul seed is condensed, it is not needed, and you can hang portraits in your own home.

Because after condensing the soul seed, it is a tiny temple and coordinate.

"Yes," Sun Tong said.

"Anything else?"

"The main things are gone, they are all proceeding according to plan. There are still two small problems, that is, cultivators and spirit masters want to see you."

After speaking, Xuan Huang roughly knew who wanted to see him.

"Is it the transformation of Gao Jue and others, and Yan Lai and the three want to achieve the eleventh level?"

"Yes."

"These don't need to be reported, I will summon them."

"Yes."

"It's time to transform Gao Jue, the cultivators are about to enter the first level of transcendence," Xuan Huang said with a smile.

I remember promising them a long time ago, and this delay has been half a year.

The main reason is that it takes a long time to transform a strange spirit master into a cultivator.

Unlike refining tools, just put them in the furnace for refining.

Transforming a spirit master requires enhancing their will and transforming their dantian, which takes a long time.

No matter how heaven-defying Xuan Huang is, it is impossible to make the spirit master's will reach the level he wants in one day, and it is impossible to reshape the spirit master in one day.

The tempering of will takes time, and the spirit master also needs to change the path during the transformation.

The short time is ten days, and the long time is one month.

Xuan Huang also needs to stare at it all the time, and he needs to keep the spirit master's spiritual intelligence from being destroyed.

Xuan Huang didn't have so much time before.

If it takes ten days, the eight people of Wu Hui plus Gao Jue will need ninety days, and this is according to the shortest time.

If it takes a month, it will be nine months.

But now, it's good.

Because his dantian Qi sea can also refine tools like the previous heaven and earth furnace, and it can also refine people.

Moreover, the will enters the second level, and the will imprints every drop of Qi and blood in the Qi sea.

This means that Xuan Huang can completely collect them into the Qi sea, and every drop of sea water is Xuan Huang's will clone.

Xuan Huang doesn't need to stare at it all the time, the Qi sea will will stare at it.

He can transform all nine of them at once, and he doesn't need to stare at them himself.

Therefore, Xuan Huang knows that the time has come, the moment to transform the nine people.

Sun Tong left to notify the Nanshi Confucian school that the temple can be opened.

The Xuan Cat, who received the news, knew that the master had left the customs, and came to Xuan Huang's courtyard in a puff of smoke.

"Master."

A black ball hung on Xuan Huang's leg.

Xuan Huang felt so ashamed. Is this leg-hugging Xuan Cat really raised by him?

It is said that pets follow their owners, this guy's posture is too embarrassing for him.

However, feeling the Xuan Cat's peak first-order strength, Xuan Huang knew that this guy was not lazy and made rapid progress.

Give him another half a year, at the latest one year, and he will definitely enter the second order.

After all…

Even if Xuan Huang suppresses the soul, the creatures still need to break through the barrier of entering the second order themselves.

This is still the accumulation of Xuan Cat's old demon for many years, it is even more difficult for others.

Each order is a ladder.

Xuan Huang's quick entry into the Second Order was also due to special circumstances: his golden soul, the "Super Self" ability of his golden finger, and the boost from several supreme treasures.

The gap between a Second Order Transcendent and a First Order Transcendent is even greater, more outrageous than the difference between entering the Order and becoming Transcendent.

Xuan Huang's lifespan is now three thousand years.

Ignoring everything else, just this lifespan of three thousand years represents a lot.

It's a direct tenfold increase compared to the three hundred-year lifespan of the First Order.

Wouldn't the improvement in ability be more than tenfold?

But… to say he could deal with a Third Order?

Okay, still no!

It's not much of an improvement compared to when he was in the First Order.

Because the gap between the Second and Third Orders is even more outrageous.

With the help of the three-artifact combined domain and the will of the small world, Xuan Huang was previously able to resist the invasion of the Third Order eerie floating corpse; he can still do that now, it's just that his ability to resist the Third Order's invasion is stronger.

There's no qualitative change, only a quantitative one.

Previously, Xuan Huang's prediction was that he would break through to the Third Order in five to ten years, preferably five years, at worst ten years.

Because of this "Super Self" breakthrough, he was able to examine the Second Order from the perspective of the Fifth Order, thus modifying many of the previous paths, making them more perfect, stronger, and simpler.

So, Xuan Huang's time to break through to the Third Order… is still five to ten years.

Stronger and more perfect, and simpler are inherently contradictory.

You want to be powerful and perfect, but also simple?

That's inherently impossible.

These five to ten years are the Second Version's five to ten years.

Not the First Version's five to ten years from before.

Five to ten years compared to a lifespan of three thousand years is actually very, very short.

Xuan Huang also understands that in the future, his path will no longer be calculated in days, but in months and years.

"Master, are you lamenting?"

The Xuan Cat discovered that its master hadn't picked it up and thrown it aside, even though it was hugging his leg; instead, he was pondering?

Its intelligence has improved a lot recently, it asked.

"Not bad, you can even tell I'm lamenting? You can even fathom people's hearts. Now that you've grown a brain, don't you know that hugging my leg like this is very inappropriate?" Xuan Huang asked.

"Master, no matter how I change, I'm still your little kitty."

"Scram!"

"Yes, Master." The Xuan Cat immediately landed from Xuan Huang's leg, looking obedient.

Xuan Huang was speechless, wondering who it had learned that from?

The Xuan Cat was also depressed, thinking: "You two big cats are finished, you actually said that acting cute would make Master happy; is this happiness? It clearly feels like Master is disgusted."

You two fat cats, you just wait.

"From now on, you have two main priorities: first, the Soul Splitting Technique will spread, but it will be difficult for believers to condense soul seeds in a short time, making it difficult to summon you. Therefore, you must take the spirit beasts to the Hundred Thousand Mountains of the Blood Moon Realm, to find spirit herbs and spirit plants, and to subdue more subordinates, establishing a spirit beast force in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"Yes.", The Xuan Cat replied.

"At the same time, pay attention to believers. If any believers condense soul seeds, you will also need to deal with them. This concerns your path, so you need to be careful and diligent."

"Yes, Master."

"Go if there's nothing else," Xuan Huang said after finishing his instructions.

"Master…"

"Speak if you have something to say."

"Master, I want magic tools, I want two. I also want merit points for my children; we are also members of Azure Cloud Mountain, we should also have points to exchange.", the Xuan Cat pleaded.

Xuan Huang stared at the Xuan Cat, watching it until it was about to give up, wanting to say it didn't want them anymore.

"Alright, I promise you."

He didn't expect Master to agree.

"Meow!"

The Xuan Cat shouted happily, then scurried away.

…

Meanwhile, on the other side…

"Is it finally my turn?"

When Sun Tong's magpie of good news left, Gao Jue in the Listening Truth Tower shed tears of excitement.

He had been waiting so long that the flowers had withered.

Half a year ago, under the 'guidance' of his master, Daoist Ma, he wanted to be transformed.

At first, he was a little apprehensive, but as time passed and the cultivators of Azure Cloud Mountain became stronger and stronger, he couldn't help but imagine himself in their place.

He wondered how great it would be if he were also a cultivator.

The environment caused a change in his heart, from being a little apprehensive at the beginning to being extremely eager later on.

Unfortunately, Master Xuan was always busy and didn't have time. While waiting idly, he even established the Listening Truth Tower with Bai Xiaosheng.

"Congratulations, Daoist friend, congratulations! Daoist friend, you have finally achieved your wish."

Bai Xiaosheng congratulated Gao Jue, who was in tears.

The Listening Truth Tower, which the two of them created, developed very rapidly. After half a year of accumulation, it has already covered all areas from Azure Cloud Mountain to Nan City.

In the past month or so, it has followed in the footsteps of the cultivators, expanding out of Nan City and towards the entire Mount Dai.

Recently, the two of them have been busy with a major event.

They accepted the commission from the four major forces to create a new list, a list of the three hundred Dharma-transmitting Envoys of the four major forces.

The four major forces have not forgotten those sacrificed cultivators, wanting their achievements to be known to the world.

For example, Daoist Rong Ping and Great Master Ming Shan are at the forefront of the list, ranked according to their achievements.

"Thank you, thank you."

Gao Jue accepted the congratulations with a silly smile.

"Daoist friend, I will need to trouble you for a period of time. I don't know how long it will take for me to be reborn. During the time I am away, if you have any important matters that need to be discussed, you can seek out my benefactor, Master. Master will fully represent me."

Gao Jue quickly regained his composure and made a series of arrangements.

"Don't worry, Daoist friend. If there is anything I cannot decide, I will go to Daoist Ma. Moreover, the Hall of Merit is also our major shareholder, so I can also inquire at the Hall of Merit."

After Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking, he added: "When Daoist friend emerges from seclusion, my Listening Truth Tower will have a Transcendent cultivator. At that time, my Listening Truth Tower will reach a new level."

Bai Xiaosheng was happy, as his own cultivation was not weak.

He had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining and entering the Order, and the fifth level of Harmonizing Dharma and Refining Intent.

With the help of Azure Cloud Mountain's stable heavenly secrets, it was very easy for a cultivator like him, who studied luck, to improve quickly.

The Listening Truth Tower also had no shortage of resources and merit points, so his progress was visible to the naked eye.

"Alright, then I'll go."

Gao Jue cupped his hands, his expression a little solemn, but also a little excited and apprehensive.

"I wish Daoist friend Nirvana and rebirth!"

Bai Xiaosheng gave his final blessing.

On the other side were Wu Hui and the other seven.

The eight of them also received the news from the magpie of good news, and couldn't help but burst into laughter as they waited.

"Haha…"

They were also anxious, after all, waiting for something like this was something that anyone who experienced it would know was very agonizing.

Especially seeing the cultivators becoming stronger and stronger, about to step into the Transcendent realm, anyone would be anxious.

If they waited any longer, there would be more cultivators entering the Transcendent realm, and they would be left far behind.

"Everyone, have you all made your selections?" Wu Hui asked calmly.

What she was asking was about the eight people's compatibility with the three fundamental Dharma.

Also, the path of cultivation after being transformed.

The Spirit Masters were all geniuses, perhaps not as good as the top-tier geniuses among the cultivators.

But their lower limit was very high, starting with extraordinary talent.

"I have experienced all three Visualization Charts. The one that resonated with me the most was the 'Great Return to the Void Grinding Chart'. I will choose to walk the path of Refining the Spirit,", a man said.

"Me too."

"Me too."

"I have previously controlled eerie bones and personally felt the three great Visualization Charts. The 'Heaven and Earth Furnace Visualization Chart' is the most compatible with me. I plan to walk the path of Refining the Body."

"Me too."

"Similarly, I also plan to walk the path of Refining the Body."

Including Wu Hui, four chose to refine the spirit, and four chose to refine the body.

This was actually very normal. If their souls were not strong, they would not be able to control the eerie, and would not be able to achieve a delicate balance.

And controlling the eerie and fusing it with the body represented the strength of the body.

Therefore, the eight people's choices were correct.

In fact, including Gao Jue, due to the characteristics of the eerie ears, he also chose to walk the path of Refining the Body.

"Alright, let's go. Let's not keep Master Xuan waiting for too long."

After making their decisions, the group of eight went to Xuan Huang's courtyard.

When the nine people arrived at Xuan Huang's courtyard, they exchanged glances.

Gao Jue had thought that he was the only one being transformed this time, but he didn't expect that Wu Hui and the others had also been summoned.

Looking at it this way, could it be that all nine of them could be transformed?

After the nine people greeted Xuan Huang, Xuan Huang asked them to sit down.

"Due to my previous cultivation level, I wasn't very confident in transforming you. Recently, my cultivation level has improved slightly, and I am now confident in transforming you. I have made you wait for a long time with apologies."

"We wouldn't dare.", The nine people had just sat down when they were startled by Xuan Huang's apologetic words about making them wait, and stood up again.

"Sit, sit, no need to be so formal. I heard that you haven't been idle while waiting here, helping the Southern City's Evil Suppression Department and the four major powers solve many problems. That's good. Whether you are cultivators or spirit masters, always remember that you are members of Xia. Since you have the ability, you must act accordingly."

"We would never dare to forget."

The nine answered in unison.

"Very good." Xuan Huang nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Have you made your choices?"

"Mystic Master, my choice is a body refiner, with a Qi Sea and Dantian of three nines."

Seeing that the other eight did not answer immediately, Gao Jue, who had already made up his mind, answered first.

"Three nines?" Xuan Huang nodded and said, "Not bad."

The so-called three nines refers to twenty-seven zhang per layer, and two hundred and seventy zhang in radius for a first-order Transcendent's ten layers of perfection.

Xuan Huang's Qi Sea is three hundred and sixty zhang, but for other cultivators at the first-order Transcendent Mystic Transformation level, there are only ten layers.

Ten layers is perfection.

Because excess is as bad as deficiency, there is no need to be as extreme as Xuan Huang.

Xuan Huang's extreme expansion of the Qi Sea's area is not that important; what is important is the twelve layers of will refinement.

The twelve layers and three hundred and sixty zhang Qi Sea are just byproducts of the twelve layers of will refinement.

It's not to say that it has no effect at all; the effect mentioned here is not significant, referring specifically to Xuan Huang.

The effect is not significant for Xuan Huang, but that doesn't mean it's not significant for other cultivators.

It has a significant effect on other cultivators and is the basis for distinguishing strength.

Someone with a Qi Sea of one hundred and eighty zhang simply can't defeat someone with a Qi Sea area of two hundred and seventy zhang; they will be crushed.

It's unfair to compare Xuan Huang to them.

They don't need their will to be tempered to the first-order limit, after all, the fusion of laws and will refinement they cultivate relies on Xuan Huang to suppress their souls.

Xuan Huang needs to suppress himself and suppress the second-order Qi Sea and the second-order Spirit Field at the same time, so he needs to be extreme.

"Mystic Master, I also choose the three nines."

"Mystic Master, I choose Spirit Refinement, the three nines."

"Mystic Master, I also choose Spirit Refinement, the three nines."

After Gao Jue finished answering, everyone spoke up one after another.

Spirit Refinement involves opening up the Purple Mansion Divine Void and condensing a Divine Soul Mountain within the Divine Void.

Entering the Spirit Refinement stage involves condensing a Divine Seal. When the Divine Seal breaks open the Purple Mansion Divine Void, the Divine Seal transforms into a mountain, and you can choose to transform it into one Divine Mountain or three Divine Mountains.

This is the path of cultivation for the first order of Spirit Refinement.

After that, it's like nurturing a Dao Tree in Qi Refinement; Spirit Refinement is a continuous process of cultivating the Divine Mountain.

A first-order mountain has form, a second-order mountain has shadow, and a third-order mountain has spirit.

After breaking through the first order of Spirit Refinement, the Divine Mountain has form but is very illusory, between reality and illusion. You need to break through [Material Attachment], understand how everything in the world exists and the concepts it creates for you, a transformation of the mind, a transformation of the soul, and then enter the second order.

Second-order Spirit Refinement cultivators need to break through [Other Attachment], which is understanding other people's concepts of you, or concepts imposed by others, and enter the third order after breaking through.

To enter the fourth order from the third order, you need to break through [Self Attachment], which is your own concept of yourself. Break through self-attachment and seek the true self.

A first-order mountain has form, only a illusory shape, between reality and illusion.

A second-order mountain has shadow, breaking through the inherent perception of all things, the Divine Mountain has two sides, opposing yin and yang, form and shadow, a truer point of reality and illusion.

A third-order mountain has spirit, breaking through other people's concepts, you break other people's inherent perception of you, then you are your own god.

The fourth-order is the true self, breaking through your own shackles, breaking all false definitions and perceptions, and attaining the true self.

This is the path of Spirit Refinement.

Of the nine of them, five refine the body and four refine the spirit.

Those who refine the spirit have all chosen the three nines for the Divine Void.

Xuan Huang only nodded at everyone's choice, without giving specific guidance.

After all, this needs to be chosen by themselves. Since they have decided, let them follow their choices.

However, the choices of these nine people are all difficult.

If divided into four levels, taking Qi Sea as a ratio, one nine is the most ordinary, two nines are for those with outstanding talent, and three nines are the choice of geniuses.

As for Xuan Huang's four nines, there is no need to compare.

As mentioned earlier, this belongs to the path of the founding ancestor and the favored one of heaven, which ordinary people cannot follow.

"All good, very confident." Xuan Huang said, "Since this is the case, let's begin."

Without wasting words, since the nine of them have already made their choices, let's start the transformation.

When the nine of them heard this, they began to feel nervous and expectant, waiting for the Mystic Master to summon the Heaven and Earth Furnace to transform them.

However, a suction force came, and everything went dark.

When they saw the light again, they had already arrived at a boundless, golden sea.

"Plop—"

They quickly fell into the water, and then intense pain came.

Their remaining senses discovered that the golden seawater began to devour and obliterate them.

They felt an indescribable pain.

When their minds were about to be unable to bear it and were about to collapse, an invisible ray of light transformed into a light sphere, protecting their minds from collapsing.

However, it only protected their minds from collapsing; the unbearable pain was not isolated.

They were still in a state of living hell, unable to die even if they wanted to.

Once they approached collapse, a magical force would be added to their souls, gradually changing them and strengthening their souls little by little.

This transformative power is the power of the Strange Force rule.

The golden Qi Sea not only obliterates and devours their souls, but also obliterates and devours the Strange Force.

Of course, the Strange Force that is obliterated is not the rule, but the strangeness composed of Strange 'malice', 'distortion', and 'poison of desire'.

What is gradually merging with them and strengthening their minds is the power of the rule.

Strictly speaking, it is not strengthening them, but pulling their minds to merge with the rule, squeezing out the Strange Force in the rule fragments.

As for the transformation of the body, let's not talk about it for now; it's not the time yet.

The first step is to obliterate the Strange Force, so that their souls occupy the dominant position in the rule fragments.

Only then will the transformation of the lower Dantian Qi Sea and the upper Dantian Purple Mansion be carried out.

This needs to be done little by little.

Just transforming the soul, allowing their souls to gradually strengthen while merging with the Strange fragments, will take more than ten days.

This is Xuan Huang's speculation.

These nine people have been fighting against the Strange for a long time, and their will has been tempered very strongly.

Let's put it this way, the true will of all nine of them starts at the fourth order.

This is the level of true will strength that Jiu Tong, Yan Lai, and Minghui could only achieve at the beginning.

And all nine of them are like this.

It is conceivable that the spirit masters who control the Strange are all very strong.

Of course, it is due to the influence and transformation of the rule fragments, and this reason accounts for at least 80% of the effect.

Their control and fusion with the Strange is actually bidirectional; the Strange is eroding them, and they are also eroding the Strange.

It's just that from a human perspective, it's normal for me to erode your strangeness, and it's unforgivable for your strangeness to erode me.

It's double standards.

With the transformation of nine people at once, Xuan Huang can still watch the fun from the sidelines.

This is the ability of the second order, reflected everywhere.

Will is integrated into the Qi Sea, and every drop is a small self, much like the Blood God Son of the Styx Ancestor.

Even more can be done.

Seeing that the nine people have entered the transformation stage, Xuan Huang does not need to worry for the time being.

When the nine people have passed the first step, completely merging their minds into the Strange fragments, then the transformation of the lower Dantian Qi Sea and the upper Dantian Purple Mansion will be carried out.

Therefore, Xuan Huang waved his hand… …

It's still a two-in-one chapter, mainly to increase the average order.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Also, thank you to the big boss for the 5000 reward, I will add more updates on the weekend.
