Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

In the afternoon, the sun penetrated the thin clouds and sprinkled in the Qingkang Mountains.

The trees were lush and green, the mountain breeze blew past, and the green waves rose and fell.

A 10-foot-long eagle spread its wings and flew high. Its sharp eyes overlooked the vast mountains and forests. Suddenly, it swooped down and grabbed a goat that was climbing a steep cliff. With the goat's wailing, it flew back into the sky.

But the eagle had just flown out more than ten feet when it was startled by a young man who suddenly appeared in front of it. It subconsciously let go of the goat and grabbed it with its claws.

The young man raised his hand and grabbed one of the eagle's claws, which was sharp enough to penetrate the rocks. It grabbed his hand fiercely, but it was unharmed, and only made a slightly harsh scraping sound.

A hint of fear flashed in the eagle's pupils. It was not an ordinary beast, but a lower-level monster.

The breath exuded by the young man made him despair. His ignorant intelligence told the eagle that it was definitely not the opponent of the uninvited guest in front of him.

But it did not give up. The desire to survive made it scream. The other claw suddenly grew a little bigger, covered with a layer of iron gray, and was ready to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, the young man released its claws, flapped his wings behind him, and disappeared from the spot. He appeared in front of the goat that had fallen dozens of feet. He reached out to grab the goat, shook his wrist, and threw it up lightly.

The young man did not seem to use any force, but he easily threw the goat dozens of feet high. The eagle tightly hooked the goat's back, looked at the young man below, blinked in confusion, and then vibrated his wings vigorously and flew away.

The young man looked at the eagle going away, smiled slightly, and the wings behind him vibrated. The figure flashed continuously, but in the blink of an eye, he came to a steep mountain thousands of feet away.

The young man was tall, dressed in a white shirt, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, handsome face, and extraordinary temperament. It was Chen Yuan.

But what was different from before was that a pair of black wings grew out from his back, which were about ten feet long, forming a sharp contrast with the snow-white clothes, adding a bit of fierceness.

Chen Yuan landed on the stone cliff in front of the cave, and the wings behind him slowly folded up without leaving any traces. The back of the robe was not damaged at all, as if the pair of wide black wings had never existed.

The stone door of the cave slowly opened, and Chen Yuan stepped in with a smile on his face, obviously in a very good mood.

He came to the practice room, sat cross-legged, and looked inside himself.

In the Dantian, a golden elixir was hanging in the middle like the sun, slightly dim.

Next to him was a giant ape phantom of a hundred feet in size, with white head and bare feet, eyes slightly closed, sitting cross-legged like a human cultivator, occasionally opening his eyes and looking down, revealing a trace of fierceness.

Under the golden elixir, there was a three thousand feet of true essence sea, with waves rising and falling.

A black fish of a hundred feet in size suddenly rushed out of the sea, flapped its wings, flew hundreds of feet, and then fell down with a bang, stirring up waves all over the sky.

Five years have passed since Chen Yuan refined the true spirit blood in Kunfeng Demon Pill.

Seven days ago, the battle in Chen Yuan's Dantian finally came to an end.

With the continuous support of true essence, the giant ape defeated the strange fish. The black fish was completely dyed blood red by the true essence, and was completely subdued by Chen Yuan.

A memory of inheritance emerged from the bottom of his heart, and Chen Yuan knew that he had refined Kunpeng's true blood.

He had expected this long ago. The Kun fish clan is good at the power of space and has the innate magical power of swallowing everything. It is hard not to think of Kunpeng's true spirit.

Chen Yuan was extremely happy after refining Kunpeng's true blood.

True spirits also have high and low levels. "Nine Transformations of True Spirits" records hundreds of true spirits. Kunpeng's true spirit is comparable to Zhuyan's true spirit, both of which are powerful first-class true spirits.

But five years of refining the true blood day and night also made Chen Yuan's spirit tense and extremely tired. He suddenly relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. He woke up five days later.

He immediately looked inside himself and saw two true spirit phantoms in the dantian.

He was not surprised by this. According to the records of "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit", when only one kind of true spirit blood is refined, this kind of true blood will be hidden in the body.

But when refining at least two kinds of true spirit blood, the power of the true spirit will be hidden in the body again, and conflicts will arise.

At this time, the power of the true spirit will enter the dantian and manifest itself in the form of a true spirit phantom. It will return to the body when Chen Yuan activates the true spirit blood.

However, the strengthening of Chen Yuan's physical body by the true spirit blood still exists. Before refining Kunpeng's true blood, Chen Yuan took two bottles of body-tempering spirit pills, and his physical body was greatly strengthened, comparable to the physical strength after activating the nameless magical power before.

After refining Kunpeng's true blood, even without using any magical power or stimulating the two kinds of true blood, Chen Yuan's body is comparable to the strength of the previous unnamed magical power and stimulating Zhuyan's true blood, surpassing any level 7 monster, even Kunfeng is much inferior.

Kunpeng's true spirit, like Zhuyan's true spirit, is also known for its strong body.

Now when he meets Kunfeng again, Chen Yuan only needs to stimulate any kind of true spirit blood to easily defeat him, without having to use treasures such as Zhenkong Stone, Tianlei Talisman, and Chiyan Pearl.

However, the strengthening of the body by Kunpeng's true blood is secondary, and the most important thing is the true spirit power contained in it.

Chen Yuan now stimulates Kunpeng's true blood, and a pair of black wings about ten feet long will grow behind him. Just by gently flapping the wings, he can teleport a hundred feet, and the escape speed has doubled compared to before.

This feeling is extremely intoxicating. Chen Yuan can clearly feel the existence of the void, and can even easily blend into it, like a fish swimming in the sea.

The improvement of teleportation and escape speed is just a manifestation of Chen Yuan's control over the power of space. After stimulating Kunpeng's true blood, he can also consume his true essence to cover his hands with a layer of black light, which is the same as the cracks in space and extremely sharp.

In addition, Chen Yuan also mastered the swallowing magic power that Kunfeng had used, and opened up a void in his body, whether it is magic power, magic, or magic weapon power, it can be swallowed.

However, there is an upper limit to the swallowing magic power. The void can only accommodate a certain degree of magic power and magic weapon power. After exceeding it, he will be backfired, and all the swallowed magic power and magic weapon power will suddenly burst out.

After reaching the upper limit, it takes seven days for the magic power and magic weapon power in the void to dissipate, and then he can continue to use the swallowing magic power.

The void is based on the physical body. The stronger the physical body, the larger the void.

Chen Yuan does not know the upper limit of his swallowing magic power yet, but it is definitely stronger than Kunfeng.

Kun Feng can devour half of the power of the Thunder Talisman. Chen Yuan estimates that he can devour at least two-thirds of it, which can play a great role in the battle.

However, the devouring magic has an upper limit, so it should not be used lightly, which will waste the capacity of the void.

Chen Yuan intends to use it as a trump card to play a role in turning the tide at a critical moment.

Finally, a space of about a foot in size appeared in Chen Yuan's body, which can accommodate external objects.

This space is not large, but the things stored in it can only be taken out by no one except Chen Yuan, which is a hundred times safer than the mustard ring.

Chen Yuan tried it and found that the jade can also be stored in it, which made him feel more at ease.

He also put in important things such as top-grade spirit stones, thousand-year spirit herbs, and cultivation pills, leaving only some commonly used things such as spirit materials and spirit stones in the mustard ring.

Previously, Chen Yuan had taken away Kun Feng's mustard ring, but there were only a few spirit stones and a few very ordinary treasures in it, not even a magic weapon.

Now think about it, the real treasure should have been placed in the space opened up in the body by Kun Feng.

…

After a series of experiments, Chen Yuan exhausted all his true essence and was very satisfied with Kunpeng's true blood.

He mastered the art of teleportation, and he was no longer afraid of his opponents escaping like Yan Tongchun by relying on his speed.

The devouring magic gave him the power to defend himself, and he no longer had to rely on his body.

The dark light that was no different from the space cracks made him no longer have to rely on Zhuyan's true fire to fight the enemy as before.

His true essence became more pure, and his sea of ​​true essence expanded by a thousand feet, which was three times that of the cultivators of the same level, and could accommodate more true essence.

The second kind of true spirit blood brought Chen Yuan a reborn change.

The only drawback was that his cultivation fell from the false infant to the beginning of the late stage of the elixir formation, and he needed to practice again.

Moreover, he underestimated the purity of the true essence after refining the second kind of true blood, and the elixir he had prepared was not enough for him to practice to the false infant realm again.

Chen Yuan sat in the practice room, gradually calming down, meditating and breathing, and waited until the next day, when his true essence was fully restored, he left the cave and flew to Fanyang Market.

The elixir was insufficient, and he needed to continue refining elixir, but he did not have any spirit grass demon elixir in his hand, so he needed to go to the market to buy some.

Even if Chen Yuan did not activate Kunpeng's true blood, his flight speed was half faster than before. It only took five hours to fly nearly 7,000 miles and arrived at Fanyang Market.

He went around the market, and there were only a few 800-year-old spirit herbs for sale in the shops selling spirit herbs. Even if there were shops selling them, the price was extremely expensive.

When Chen Yuan refined Kunpeng's true blood, in order to replenish his true essence, he used more than 250 high-quality spirit stones, and there were more than 740 left. Even if he took them all out, he could not make up a few furnaces of elixir.

The price of the seventh-level demon pill is much cheaper than the eight-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs. Except for Chen Yuan, no one knows the formula of the demon yuan pill. The demon pill cannot improve cultivation. It is just a spiritual material and its value is not too high.

But the demon pills that Chen Yuan needs are mostly sea monsters, which are quite rare in Jiuxianzhou.

He stayed in Fanyang Market for three months and participated in several trade fairs during this period before buying eleven seventh-level demon pills. More than seven hundred high-quality spiritual stones were used up by 90%, leaving less than a hundred.

There is no shortage of hundred-year-old spiritual herbs as auxiliary medicines. He had bought hundreds of them in the ghost market of Tianji Island before, and there are still many left.

After buying the demon pills, Chen Yuan left Fanyang Market and returned to the cave. It took him a year to refine all eleven demon pills into seventh-level demon yuan pills.

When refining the ninth furnace of pills, the success rate reached 80%. Chen Yuan caught up with the old man Dan Jue and his alchemy skills reached perfection.

But he knew that his talent for alchemy was not as good as that of Elder Dan Jue because he had refined too many level 7 demon essence pills and had too much experience. Only by working hard could he make up for his shortcomings and achieve an 80% success rate.

Elder Dan Jue was an alchemist after all, and his strength was only ordinary among the late Jindan cultivators. The success rate of hunting level 7 demon beasts was very low, and Elder Dan Jue rarely got the more precious 800-year-old spiritual herbs.

Many cultivators asked Elder Dan Jue to make pills, but it was impossible for them to kill level 7 demon beasts with essence and blood like Chen Yuan, and refine pills one after another, directly refining dozens of late Jindan pills.

Throughout the ages, there have been few alchemy masters in the world of immortal cultivation who have more experience than Chen Yuan.

Thirteen demon pills were used to refine eight bottles of level 7 demon essence pills. Together with the eight remaining pills, there were a total of sixteen bottles of late Jindan pills, which were enough for Chen Yuan to cultivate back to the false infant realm.

He rested for three days to recover, and then took a pill, and a huge amount of spiritual energy flowed into his meridians.

According to the method recorded in "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit", Chen Yuan introduced the spiritual energy into specific meridians and slowly circulated it. He was surprised to find that the speed at which he absorbed the spiritual energy was twice as fast as before.

It only took him half a month to completely refine the power of this pill, and his cultivation level increased by a few points, saving him three years of hard work.

It would take an ordinary monk at least a month to refine a late-stage elixir, but Chen Yuan shortened it by half.

This should be due to the refining of Kunpeng's true blood. Kunpeng's true spirit can devour all things, and it is no problem to absorb spiritual energy.

However, other monks can save at least five or six years of hard training by refining a pill, but the true energy in Chen Yuan's body is too pure and powerful, and a pill can only cover three years of practice.

Taken together, his cultivation speed has not improved.

But he can refine a pill in half a month, allowing him to perform one more starlight injection.

In the middle of the night, Chen Yuan got up and went to the stone room with a skylight. He took out the jade and brought down the bright starlight. Feeling that his body had become stronger, he couldn't help but smile.

He returned to the training room to restore his true energy, then took another pill and patiently refined the potency.

Years go by and time flies.

Seven years passed in a hurry, and Chen Yuan had refined all the elixirs. His cultivation level had been raised to the realm of false infants again, and his physical body had also improved a lot under the tempering of the power of the stars in the sky.

In the past thirty years, while practicing alchemy, he had persisted in attracting starlight to fill his body, which was no less than taking a bottle of Vajra Pill.

At this time, Chen Yuan's true energy was pure and deep, and his cultivation level could not be improved, far exceeding that of monks of the same level.

He refined two more types of true spirit blood, and continued to temper his physical body with the power of the stars in the sky. He drank several bottles of body tempering elixirs, and his physical body surpassed all elixir-forming body cultivation and seventh-level monsters, reaching an unprecedented level. realm.

Chen Yuan had a sudden idea and tried to stimulate Zhu Yan's true blood and Kunpeng's true blood at the same time, but failed.

According to the records in "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit", only after conceiving a baby can two kinds of true blood be stimulated at the same time.

The cultivation of spiritual transformation can condense the true spiritual dharma.

With combined cultivation, one can transform into a true spirit.

Chen Yuan originally thought that with his physical body being so powerful, he might be able to stimulate two kinds of true blood at the same time, but now it seems that he still has to wait until he has a baby.

This is also the top priority next. After refining the second true spirit blood, there is no obstacle to forming a baby. All he needs to do is find a medium-sized spiritual vein to break through the bottleneck of the Yuanying.

Chen Yuan had already planned this matter. He got up and went to the main hall and sent a transmission note to Li Qingshan. After waiting for an hour, Li Qingshan still didn't arrive.

Chen Yuan was a little puzzled, so he took a scroll and came to the cave opened by Li Qingshan.

This is a short mountain with a height of 100 feet. The formation is activated, the gate of the cave is closed, and Li Qingshan is not in the mansion.

Chen Yuan shook his head and laughed, and did not return to the cave. He just walked in the mountains, watching the scenery, and enjoying himself.

Seven days later, Chen Yuan returned to the cave and found Li Qingshan already waiting outside the door.

"Disciple pays homage to the master and respectfully welcomes him out of seclusion!" Li Qingshan bowed deeply.

Chen Yuan raised his sleeves and flicked the stone door slowly open, and the two of them walked into the main hall.

Chen Yuan lifted his lapel, sat next to the stone table, and looked at Li Qingshan carefully.

He did not reveal his energy, but his peak cultivation level in the middle stage of foundation building was clearly revealed in Chen Yuan's consciousness.

Chen Yuan pointed to the stone bench: "No need to be polite, just sit down."

Li Qingshan sat down and Chen Yuan asked again: "Where have you been these past few days?"

Li Qingshan explained: "The two disciples went to Jinshanfang City, visited Senior Pei of Baibao Pavilion, and asked the weapon refining master in Baibao Pavilion to integrate the Blood Killing Stone into the flying sword and upgrade it to a high-grade spiritual weapon. Today When I came back, I saw Master’s transmission talisman and immediately came to pay my respects.”

Chen Yuan nodded. He had previously given the Blood Killing Stone to Li Qingshan, and also told him about his relationship with Pei Song, so that he could help him when traveling abroad.

Sword cultivator to upgrade the Feijian level requires constant infusion of true energy. It took Li Qingshan two years, also because of the extraordinary quality of the Blood Killing Stone.

After twelve years, Li Qingshan had accumulated a lot of cultivation problems. Chen Yuan spent two days answering them one by one and giving him some guidance on his next cultivation path.

At the end, Li Qingshan cupped his fists and bowed: "Master, this disciple has been stuck in the bottleneck of the later stage for several years. I want to travel out and look for opportunities to break through. I ask Master for permission."

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Since you have this intention, there is nothing wrong with being a teacher. Have you ever thought about where you want to travel?"

Li Qingshan said without thinking: "Disciple wants to go to Ningzhou."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly: "Ningzhou has many sword cultivators, so it is a good place. I will give you two more magical powers for sword cultivators. Although you can only practice them after forming the elixir, you might as well try them out first."

After saying that, he took out two jade slips from the mustard ring and handed them over.

"Yes." Li Qingshan took the jade slip with both hands and put it away.

Chen Yuan then warned: "As a master, I have to go to the Haoran Sect to visit my friends. If you have something to do, you can go to the Haoran Sect to find me as your master, and just tell me the name of the true disciple Zhang Wushan and Zhenren Zhang."

"However, my master also has enemies in the Haoran Sect. Before meeting Master Zhang, I cannot say my master's name."

"Disciple remembers it."

"Is the diamond talisman my master gave you still there?"

"Disciple hasn't used it yet."

"Take these spiritual stones. I am not a sword cultivator as a teacher. I don't have magic powers for sword cultivators to teach you. If you come across magical powers that are suitable for you, don't miss them." Chen Yuan took out thirty high-grade spiritual stones from the mustard seed ring and handed them over. To Li Qingshan.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Go ahead, remember, there are many hidden talents in the world of immortal cultivation, you must be careful and cautious, sword cultivators must move forward courageously, but not recklessly."

"Disciple will obey Master's orders!"

After Li Qingshan left, Chen Yuan also sealed up the cave, and flew southwest with a flash of light.

That is the center of the entire Renzhou, the location of the Haoran Sect's mountain gate, and the direction of the Chongde Mountains. (End of this chapter)
