Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

After Chen Yuan took away the thousand-year-old spiritual milk and the stone bowl, he left nothing else behind.

He walked along the stone steps, returned to the ground, walked into the thatched house, sat cross-legged, took out a bottle of pills, poured out a pill, and swallowed it.

The pills turned into a huge and pure spiritual energy and entered the meridians. Chen Yuan practiced the technique and closed his eyes to practice.

Six years passed in a flash. Chen Yuan refined more than fifty pills and finally reached the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul. He was only one step away from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Every time he refined a pill, Chen Yuan would stop practicing, take out the jade pendant, and draw starlight into his body. Under the tempering of the power of the Zhoutian stars, his body was also slowly strengthened.

Since the formation of the Nascent Soul, Chen Yuan has refined more than 200 early stage Nascent Soul pills, which is enough to allow three or four ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators to practice to the peak of the early stage.

According to Chen Yuan's initial estimate, 200 early stage Nascent Soul pills should be able to allow him to break through the bottleneck of the middle stage.

But as his body broke through the bottleneck of level nine, his Dantian meridians were also slightly strengthened, and the amount of true essence he could hold increased slightly, so two hundred pills were not enough.

He could only take out the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs he got from the secret realm, a total of thirty-one, of which twelve could be used to refine Nascent Soul mid-stage pills.

The other nineteen thousand-year-old spiritual herbs could make up four furnaces of pills, leaving three spiritual herbs.

Chen Yuan started to refine pills, and it took four months, and he got a total of twenty-four pills.

He practiced in seclusion again, refined twelve pills, and finally broke through the bottleneck of the mid-stage, his cultivation increased greatly, and his spiritual awareness expanded to a radius of three hundred miles, comparable to that of a great cultivator.

At this time, there were less than three years before the secret realm was opened. Chen Yuan did not practice in seclusion again, but took out the four level nine demon pills and thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in his hand and began to refine Nascent Soul mid-stage pills.

He originally had six thousand-year-old spiritual herbs that could refine Nascent Soul mid-stage pills, and he got twelve more from the secret realm, a total of eighteen, and made up four furnaces of pills.

This is an extremely astonishing number. Even the nine major sects cannot take out so many thousand-year-old spiritual herbs at once to refine Nascent Soul Middle Stage elixirs.

Not to mention that Chen Yuan still has six three-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in his hand. He can make a furnace of Nascent Soul Late Stage elixirs, which is enough to make the great monks envious.

The difficulty of refining Nascent Soul Middle Stage elixirs is much higher than that of Nascent Soul Early Stage elixirs.

Chen Yuan started with the Yao Yuan Dan first. Just like when he refined the Vajra Dan before, when he refined the first furnace of elixirs, only five pills flew out of the furnace, and the success rate dropped to 50%.

Fortunately, as Chen Yuan's cultivation level improved, his true essence became more pure and rich, and his spiritual consciousness also greatly improved. It only took one month to refine a furnace of elixirs.

After more than three months, all four furnaces of Yao Yuan Dan were refined, and a total of 20 Nascent Soul Middle Stage elixirs were obtained.

The ninth-level Yao Yuan Dan is more difficult to refine, but it also allows Chen Yuan to accumulate more experience.

After refining the last batch of pills, Chen Yuan felt that his alchemy skills had improved a lot and seemed to be about to make a breakthrough.

But he was not in a hurry. Instead, he meditated and adjusted his breath as usual. When it was late at night, he got up and walked out of the thatched house, took out the jade from the space in his body, and led the starlight into his body.

The secret space could not stop the silver light column from falling from the sky. The bright silver light enveloped Chen Yuan's whole body. After fifty breaths, it slowly disappeared.

Because refining pills already consumed a lot of true essence, another 20% was consumed, leaving less than 60%.

Chen Yuan clenched his fist, feeling the slightly increased strength, put away the jade, returned to the thatched house, and sat cross-legged on the jade bed.

He flipped his hand to take out the Taixuan Order, raised his hand and pinched the formula, and the Taixuan Order slowly flew up, suspended in front of Chen Yuan, condensed a light shield, and wrapped Chen Yuan inside.

Then Chen Yuan operated the skills to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Spiritual mist surged from all directions, and after passing through the light shield, it became more refined, entered the meridians, circulated thirty-six times, and finally entered the Dantian.

One day later, Chen Yuan's true essence was fully restored, slowly opened his eyes, smiled with satisfaction, and put away the Taixuan Order.

If it were in Lingyun Sect, it would take at least five days to recover 40% of the true essence after each starlight infusion.

In the secret realm of Dongxu Mountain, Chen Yuan enjoyed a large spiritual vein alone, and it only took one day to recover as before.

He took out four thousand-year-old spiritual herbs from the mustard ring, put three aside, and only took one and put it into the alchemy furnace.

Then he raised his hand and pinched the seal, and the true essence rolled out, turning into the true essence fire, wrapping the alchemy furnace.

Because the alchemy technique was on the verge of a breakthrough, Chen Yuan was particularly focused on this time.

A month later, the pill condensed and took shape, the furnace cover was lifted, and five golden pills flew out and fell into the jade bottle.

Chen Yuan shook his head in disappointment, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. At midnight, he walked out of the thatched hut, took out the jade pendant, and drew the starlight into his body.

Then he meditated and cultivated, recovered his true essence, and began to refine the second batch of pills.

Another month passed, and this batch of spiritual herbs only produced five pills in the end.

But Chen Yuan's alchemy skills improved a bit, and the feeling of breakthrough became clearer and clearer.

Still according to habit, draw the starlight into his body, and after recovering his true essence, he refined the third batch of pills.

Chen Yuan concentrated his mind, purified the spiritual liquid, integrated it into one, condensed the pill into a shape... Every step was cautious, but when the pill was completed, only five pills flew out.

He took a deep breath, calmed his slightly impatient mood, first drew the starlight into his body, then recovered his true essence, and quietly adjusted his breathing for three days, completely emptying his mind, and then began to refine the last batch of Yuanying middle-stage pills.

This time, Chen Yuan forgot about the breakthrough in alchemy and focused all his attention on how to refine this furnace of elixirs. Every step was smooth and there was no hesitation or delay.

A month later, the day of condensation and transformation finally came. Chen Yuan raised his hand and lifted the furnace cover. Six pills filled with spiritual energy flew out and fell into the jade bottle.

Chen Yuan's success rate in refining the elixir of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul has increased to 60%!

At this time, if he turns back and refines the elixir of the early stage of the Nascent Soul, the success rate will reach 70%.

For tens of thousands of years, Donghuazhou has only two alchemy masters of Tianxuan Sect who have such attainments in alchemy.

Chen Yuan's alchemy has already stood at the top of Donghuazhou.

Of course, compared with the top alchemy masters of Jiuxianzhou, Chen Yuan still has a big gap.

There were four alchemy masters from the ten major sects who had cultivated to the late stage of the Nascent Soul and had a success rate of 90% in refining Nascent Soul early stage pills.

Outside the ten major sects, there was an alchemy master who only had the cultivation of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, but his success rate in refining Nascent Soul early stage pills was also 90%.

This person was the old man Dan Jue. Many people believed that his alchemy skills were the best among the alchemy masters from ancient times to the present.

After all, the old man Dan Jue was just a casual cultivator, unlike the alchemists from the ten major sects, who had more spiritual herbs to make pills.

This work was compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

He had less experience in alchemy, but his success rate was not any different, so his alchemy skills were naturally stronger.

But only Chen Yuan knew that in addition to using thousand-year-old spiritual herbs to make pills, he also refined many demon Yuan pills, and his experience in alchemy was not inferior to that of other great masters.

As for the Nascent Soul middle stage pills, there was only one person from ancient times to the present, with a success rate of 90%.

This person's alchemy skills are recognized as the best in Jiuxianzhou, higher than all the alchemy masters.

He is also the only one among all the alchemists in Jiuxianzhou who has reached the state of transformation. He is also the founder of Taiming Sect, one of the ten major sects - Danxuzi.

The founders of the ten major sects are all amazingly talented, but there are only three who have reached the state of transformation, and Danxuzi is one of them.

There is also a legend that Danxuzi not only has the best alchemy skills in the world, but also has unparalleled cultivation. He overwhelms the nine immortals and no one can defeat him. Even the other two gods have to retreat.

Under his legacy, Taiming Sect has always been ranked among the top ten sects for tens of thousands of years. Even when it was at its weakest, it never fell out of the top three. Its foundation is unfathomable, and the other nine major sects are unwilling to be its enemy.

...

Chen Yuan refined six Yuanying middle-stage pills, and his alchemy skills finally ushered in a breakthrough. His spirit was also greatly consumed and extremely tired.

After the starlight was infused into his body as usual, he did not meditate for the next seven days, but instead viewed the landscape in the secret realm to adjust his mind.

After seven days, he returned to the Spiritual Medicine Garden to practice in seclusion.

At this time, he had a total of 41 Yuanying middle-stage pills in his hand. No Yuanying cultivator in Donghua Continent could compare with him.

Even in Jiuxian Continent, except for the masters of the ten major sects, there should be no Yuanying cultivator whose wealth could catch up with him.

This is the result of the accumulation of tens of thousands of years in the Dongxu Mountain Secret Realm, as well as the secret technique of turning decay into magic, which even Chen Yuan himself could not replicate.

He took a deep breath, poured a pill from the jade bottle, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it.

As soon as the pill entered his throat, it turned into a stream of pure spiritual energy and poured into his meridians.

This spiritual energy was much larger and more violent than the pill Chen Yuan had taken before.

He did not dare to neglect it, and immediately restrained this spiritual energy, and slowly circulated it according to the mysterious route of the practice. In the process, he further removed the dross and retained the essence, and gradually assimilated it.

Chen Yuan was immersed in cultivation, and a month passed unknowingly.

After this huge and pure spiritual energy circulated for thirty-six weeks, it was finally completely transformed into true essence and poured into the dantian without any stagnation.

After breaking through the realm, the sea of ​​true essence, which had dropped by half, obviously rose a lot.

A pill of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul is better than several years of hard practice.

But there is still a very long distance to fill the entire sea of ​​true essence.

Chen Yuan slowly opened his eyes and frowned.

According to this cultivation speed, another 120 or 30 pills of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul can reach the bottleneck of the late stage of the Nascent Soul.

But he has far more true essence than the cultivators of the same level, so naturally he needs more pills to fill the gap.

Chen Yuan sighed and stopped thinking about it. It was late at night. He got up and walked out of the thatched house, took out the jade pendant, and drew the starlight into his body.

After fifty breaths, the silver light disappeared. He put away the jade pendant, returned to the house, and recovered his true energy.

A day later, Chen Yuan took out the second Yuanying middle stage pill, swallowed it, closed his eyes, and continued to meditate and practice. (End of this chapter)
