Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Zhang Yuanjing emerged from the earth and returned to the Xuan Yuan Hall. From the time he collected the broken bones to the present day, when he had initially practiced the Soaring Sky Technique, ten years had unknowingly passed.

He sighed softly, wondering how things were on the other side of the Hengduan Mountains. If there were results, they should be available in the next two years.

As he walked to the bottom of the Zhi Zhi Tower, a voice entered his ears: "Yuanjing is back? This old Taoist has finished his closed-door cultivation. Please come up for a while."

Zhang Yuanjing's expression brightened, and he quickly climbed to the residence of Taoist Huoya. The old Taoist was already waiting outside the door.

His face was radiant, as if he had an air of triumph.

"Senior is so happy, could it be that you have successfully deduced the Nascent Soul realm technique?" Zhang Yuanjing asked in surprise.

Taoist Huoya smiled and said, "Although you didn't guess correctly, Yuanjing, you're not far off. After these years of trying, this old Taoist has gained some insight into the Nascent Soul technique of the Myriad Beast True Fire Technique. However, since it is a Nascent Soul technique, there is still a layer separating it from the Core Formation realm. Some things, whether they are right or wrong, will only be known when you reach that realm."

Zhang Yuanjing said happily: "Congratulations, Senior, you have finally broken through the clouds and seen the road ahead for the Nascent Soul realm. With this, there will be no obstacles in terms of technique when breaking through to the Nascent Soul."

Taoist Huoya waved his hand: "Don't rush to celebrate! My technique actually has a crucial point, and I'm still hesitant and haven't made up my mind yet. I was just about to discuss it with Yuanjing."

Seeing that he spoke so cautiously, Zhang Yuanjing couldn't help but look solemn and said, "Please speak, Senior."

Taoist Huoya invited him into the room, sat on a futon, and then slowly said: "Since ancient times, the Nascent Soul method has placed the greatest emphasis on controlling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This is the biggest difference between Nascent Soul and below Core Formation. The same move, whether it can attract the blessing of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, is often a world of difference. Therefore, this old Taoist's understanding of the technique also started here.

"At the beginning, it was relatively smooth. Referring to several scriptures provided by the sect, all the difficult points were resolved. But in the end, there was one thing that was difficult to decide.

"As you know, Yuanjing, the foundation of this old Taoist's Myriad Beast True Fire Technique is the melting of the fire of myriad beasts. The so-called 'Myriad Fires Return to One, Floating World Refines Truth' emphasizes purity and oneness. Don't look at this fire coming from myriad beasts, its root is actually sought internally. The so-called fire of myriad beasts is actually just an external guide. The key is to draw out the internal true fire. Only with this fire can one control the fire of myriad beasts.

"However, if it is the Nascent Soul method, one still needs to seek it externally. Only by understanding the essence of myriad fires and communicating internally and externally can one attract the blessing of heaven and earth's spiritual energy. This, however, is very different from the original Myriad Beast True Fire Technique. Therefore, this old Taoist has been unable to make a decision and doesn't know how to choose. Can Yuanjing teach me?"

Zhang Yuanjing hurriedly said modestly: "Senior is joking, I have not yet cultivated the Nascent Soul realm technique, and I don't know the mysteries within. How can I teach Senior!

"This Nascent Soul method is the beginning of a cultivator using himself as a bridge to communicate with heaven and earth. There have always been many changes in the technique. Different sects and different schools also part ways here.

"The so-called seeking inward and seeking outward should only be a choice of where to start when communicating internally and externally. In the end, we still have to connect the inside and outside.

"Take Senior's Myriad Beast True Fire Technique as an example. Its essence is seeking inward, but this seeking inward is not without reliance, not seeking here empty-handed, but using the fire of myriad beasts as a guide.

"Why? Because the truth of this fire method is not placed in a certain place, nor is it hidden within the cultivator's body, but runs through one kind of flame after another.

"Therefore, Senior's Myriad Beast Fire Technique, although said to be seeking inward, is actually also seeking outward. The inside and outside are not completely separated. If you ask my opinion, naturally it is how it was originally, and how it will be in the future. Don't make big changes."

Zhang Yuanjing paused, took out a jade box from the storage bracelet, and placed it on the ground, saying: "What I said is just a superficial view, Senior, just listen to it. Here is a fire lotus, which may help Senior to understand the true fire and make a decision."

Taoist Huoya's eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands to Zhang Yuanjing: "This thing is exactly what this old Taoist needs now, so this old Taoist will accept it impolitely. After understanding it, I will return it as it is."

Zhang Yuanjing took out two more jade bottles and said, "Senior, these are Gold-Melting Body Tempering Pills, three high-grade ones and thirteen low-grade ones. I see that Senior's aura is deep and restrained, like a pool full of water. If you temper it with this pill, you should be able to enter the Great Perfection realm as soon as possible."

Taoist Huoya thanked him first, hesitated for a moment, and still said: "Yuanjing, this old Taoist's lifespan is getting shorter every day. If I want to break through, it will be within ten years. If I delay any longer, I will be old and my energy will be weak, and it will be difficult to have hope. I wonder if the sect can be separated from Yuanjing for a while?"

Zhang Yuanjing pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "In these few years, the sect may have one thing that requires me or True Person Tong to go to the Hengduan Mountains, and it will take a long time. But whether I go or stay, before that, I will go to the Candle God Sect with Senior. This is my promise, and I will never break my word!"

Taoist Huoya's eyes narrowed, he didn't ask any more questions, but nodded and said: "If that's the case, this old Taoist has to hurry up and push up his cultivation first."

Back at his residence, Zhang Yuanjing summoned Zheng Yuandu and asked about the affairs in the hall.

After Zheng Yuandu reported, he suddenly smiled and said: "Let the Hall Master know, news came from the Palm Xuan Hall that the Hall Master's female disciple, Zhang Yu, has broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment."

Zhang Yuanjing raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "When did this happen?"

Zheng Yuandu said: "In mid-May last year. This subordinate did not report it immediately because I saw that the Hall Master was in closed-door cultivation."

Zhang Yuanjing calculated with his fingers. It had only been more than twenty years since Zhang Yu established her foundation, less than thirty years, and she had broken through the realm. It was really fast.

Back then, even Wu Yuankui had stopped at the early stage of Foundation Establishment for thirty years before breaking through to the middle stage. For geniuses like them, they tend to get faster and faster in the Foundation Establishment realm, and the time from the middle stage to the late stage, and from the late stage to the perfection stage, will only be shorter.

He couldn't help but shake his head, and then smiled dumbly: "If I continue to improve like this, I won't have to advance to the False Core stage in forty or fifty years! It seems that some things need to be prepared as soon as possible."

Zheng Yuandu chuckled twice: "With Zhang Yu's qualifications, it is needless to say that she will reach the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment in at most forty years, break through the big barrier and enter the False Core."

Zhang Yuanjing said: "If the disciple is promising, I, as the master, cannot be stingy. Here is a high-grade fire-attribute spiritual weapon. Find someone to send it to her."

When Zhang Yuanjing bid farewell to Zhang Yu because he was going to Xuan Yin Mountain, he had given her a top-grade fire-attribute spiritual weapon. However, after all, decades had passed, and now he naturally had to give another reward.

He thought for a while, and took out a white soft armor. This was a high-grade defensive spiritual weapon, which he had obtained from the Mustard Seed Space. He had never used it because he had always been wearing the Thick Earth Sect robe.

Zheng Yuandu carefully took it, with envy in his eyes, and said respectfully: "Please rest assured, Hall Master, this subordinate will arrange for someone to send it to Zhang Yu immediately."

After Zheng Yuandu left, Zhang Yuanjing summoned Pan Zhengyu again and encouraged him. This person had come to Zhi Zhi Tower several times during this period, but because Zhang Yuanjing was in closed-door cultivation, he was unable to see him.

In the following months, he still used the black mud to temper his bones, still the rest of his bones first, and then his spine, but the speed was much slower. In the middle, he took the Gold-Melting Body Tempering Pill and began to temper his Golden Core.

The medicinal power of this pill was indeed strong. The medicinal power produced after it was dissolved was like a sledgehammer, constantly forging his still-condensed solid core day and night.

Fortunately, after tempering his bones, his physical body became stronger, feeding back to his meridians and dantian, so he could support it, but he felt quite painful.

In particular, this pill not only tempered the solid core, but also tempered the divine soul, which was still a bit difficult to bear.

Fortunately, this fierce forging did not last long, only for the first three months. After this period, the medicinal power became more moderate, and it became much easier.

Half a year later, Taoist Huoya left seclusion again. This time, he went directly to Zhang Yuanjing and said to him: "Yuanjing, this old Taoist's Nascent Soul-level technique is complete! Take the Dantian True Fire as the root, two or three kinds of Heaven and Earth Strange Fire as the bone, widely collect all kinds of fire, and melt them into one furnace to refine the real Myriad Beast True Fire!"
