Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Zhang Yuanjing was not in a hurry to embark on his return journey.

From this place to Tianque Mountain, the straight-line distance is at least 25 million miles or more, and with the winding distance of the road, the journey exceeds 30 million miles.

Even if he used a low-grade Wind Control Vehicle to travel day and night, it would take six hundred days. In fact, he didn't have that many mid-grade spirit stones to consume. Moreover, the journey couldn't be so smooth.

Therefore, he planned to spend about five to ten years to complete this journey. Thus, before setting off, he needed to first stabilize his cultivation and familiarize himself with his realm.

Since going to Xuan Yin Mountain, Zhang Yuanjing had been constantly on the move. He was trapped at the bottom of the Xuan Yin Cave for ten years, and then in the process of breaking through. After leaving Xuan Yin Mountain, he fought several battles because of Zhang Xuan's matter.

Now, he could finally relax. He decided to quietly cultivate in the deep valley of Misty Spirit Mountain for three to five years, to experience the power of the Core Formation realm and master its usage as soon as possible, transforming it into his own strength.

He entrusted Han Ji, Zhang Jun, and Zhang Yu to Fire Crow Daoist, asking him to give them guidance and diligent supervision, especially Zhang Yu. Because her early progress was too fast, he needed to deliberately suppress her cultivation growth and carefully polish her foundation to make it more solid.

He himself opened up a cave on the stone wall deep in the Golden Elephant Tree Forest and began to cultivate in seclusion.

The spiritual herbs used to assist in cultivation were the strange seeds used to feed the Source Stone, a total of thirteen.

Previously, he had only cultivated one reddish-yellow seed to germinate. There were still five reddish-yellow seeds, five cyan-black seeds, and three dark-red seeds remaining.

He first took out a cyan-black seed and spent several days to germinate it. A wisp of golden spiritual energy jumped out of it, but the Source Stone did not jump out of his dantian to actively devour it as it had done last time. Instead, it allowed the spiritual energy to wander in his meridians, dyeing the power of the Thick Earth with a deeper layer of gold, seemingly able to promote the power of the Thick Earth to a higher quality.

Finally, this wisp of spiritual energy entered his dantian and swirled around the nascent core, faintly forming a kind of pressure.

Zhang Yuanjing carefully examined it and found that this wisp of golden spiritual energy was indeed a rare treasure used to feed the Source Stone. It was exceptionally thick and profound. It would probably take several years of hard cultivation to completely refine and absorb it. Of course, the harvest would be great, and it could increase his cultivation by a large margin.

As for why the Source Stone didn't devour this spiritual energy, perhaps it was because the Source Stone had grown to the first rank, and this kind of spiritual energy was not very useful to it, so it no longer swallowed it.

He eliminated distracting thoughts, held the white sprout produced by the cyan-black seed in his hand, and began to meditate and cultivate.

Spring passed and autumn came, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yuanjing looked inside his dantian. That wisp of golden spiritual energy had already been completely refined and integrated into the nascent core two years ago. The outline of the nascent core was much clearer. It no longer entangled with the surrounding spiritual energy like when he had just entered the Core Formation realm. The form of the "core" had been completely presented. Its color was white with a hint of gray, appearing much deeper. The golden and purple colors flashing in the core were also more frequent.

At this time, his mana had increased by about 30% compared to when he had just entered the Core Formation realm, and it was also more condensed and powerful. When circulating, it was like a training, light and free. If he were to face Chen Yingxin of Crimson Blood Valley again, he would definitely not be as embarrassed as last time, but would be able to deal with him calmly.

However, the improvement of the Core Formation realm was indeed much more difficult than the Foundation Establishment realm. If it weren't for that wisp of golden spiritual energy, he would have only been able to stabilize his initial Core Formation realm in these five years, and his cultivation would hardly have increased.

That milky white sprout had now grown into a dark cyan two-foot-tall spiritual plant, with a straight stem and opposite narrow leaves. There was also a flower disc on top, with a light purple color and a fragrant aroma.

Based on his experience, he judged that this was mostly a Mysterious-grade spiritual plant, but he didn't know what rank it was. After five years of cultivation, it was still far from maturity. At this rate, it was no wonder the Thick Earth Creation Cauldron said that he would not be able to raise the Source Stone to the third rank even if he died of old age.

Only by improving the level of the Thick Earth Creation Art as soon as possible could he speed up the cultivation of spiritual plants. However, the improvement of the Thick Earth Creation Art had to be achieved through cultivating spiritual medicines. This was a mutually causal relationship. If he wanted to break through this limitation, he could only rely on cultivating those seeds.

Zhang Yuanjing thought for a while and decided to put it aside for now.

He stood up, walked out of the cave, and strolled into the Golden Elephant Fruit Forest. The heavy golden fruits hanging on the treetops reflected the bright afternoon sunlight, appearing very spectacular.

In the forest, the shouts of the golden-backed giant apes playing and frolicking echoed.

As he walked, he could occasionally see golden apes who were only in the Savage Blood realm, randomly picking a round Golden Elephant Fruit, stuffing it into their mouths and eating it clean in a few bites, and then throwing the fruit pit out, smashing it at their companions.

"Grandpa Fire Crow, Senior Brother Han can advance, Fourth Brother can advance, why can't I?"

Before he had even walked out of the forest, he heard Zhang Yu's voice, half coquettish and half complaining.

Fire Crow Daoist stood by the clear lake, looking at the dense Golden Elephant Fruit Forest, and said with a smile: "When your master comes out, if he says you can advance, then you can advance."

"Hmph, once he goes into seclusion, he doesn't know the time. When will Master come out of seclusion!" Zhang Yu said娇声.

Han Ji heard the hidden meaning in Fire Crow Daoist's words, and immediately opened his five senses. Sure enough, he heard the sound of light footsteps falling on the fallen leaves in the forest, and it wasn't made by those wild golden-backed monkeys. He immediately turned around and bowed slightly in the direction of the sound.

Zhang Yuanjing quickly walked out, laughing loudly: "Yu'er, you're going to advance so quickly again, won't you be building your foundation in just a few years? This is good news!"

"Disciple Han Ji, greets Master!" Han Ji bowed down to pay his respects to Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Yu was both surprised and delighted. Like a light and nimble spirit bird, she quickly ran to Zhang Yuanjing's side, grabbed his sleeve, and complained: "Master, you've finally come out of seclusion. You left for more than ten years, and after returning for only a few days, you went into seclusion again. Once you go into seclusion, it's for five years. Yu'er can't see you a few times!"

Zhang Yuanjing shook his head, looked at her with a solemn expression, and said: "Yu'er, cultivators are like this. If you don't cultivate in seclusion, how can your cultivation improve! Since you have embarked on this path, you must get used to these things."

Zhang Yu's pretty face turned bitter: "I know, Master." Then she said dissatisfiedly: "Then why don't you let me advance to the thirteenth level. I have already filled the twelfth level."

"Filled the twelfth level?" Zhang Yuanjing was a little speechless. While signaling Han Ji to get up, he asked, "When did you enter the twelfth level?"

Fire Crow Daoist shook his head from the side and said: "Yuanjing, she only entered the twelfth level in the second year of your seclusion. As a result, with enough Hundred Spirit Pills to assist her, she filled the twelfth level in less than three years. Too fast! Simply incredible!"

Zhang Yuanjing calculated in his heart. Zhang Yu was just forty years old this year. At this rate, she would be able to build her foundation in a few years. This speed was unmatched even in the Xuan Tian Sect.

He thought for a while and said to Zhang Yu: "Yu'er, don't break through your realm for now. In these few years, spend half a day each day meditating and cultivating. Don't take pills. And don't deliberately break through the realm barrier, just naturally and smoothly enter the thirteenth level."

Zhang Yu pouted and said: "Yes, Master. Then, what should I do with the remaining half day?"

Zhang Yuanjing's eyes widened: "Refine magical artifacts, comprehend cultivation techniques!"

At this time, Zhang Jun also heard the movement and came out to pay his respects to his master. Yuan Zhilin, Liu Jinglong, and Mei Zhenyi were sent out by Fire Crow Daoist to investigate the movements of the Six Sects and were not in the mountain.

During Zhang Yuanjing's seclusion, Han Ji's cultivation took another step forward, entering the eleventh level of Qi Refining. Zhang Jun also unexpectedly achieved a breakthrough, entering the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Zhang Yuanjing encouraged the two of them a few words, then summoned Ape Thirteen and asked him to take his three disciples to play in the mountains.
