Chapter 101 Cloud Spirit Enters the Dao, Golden Core Reincarnation 2nd Stage
Seeing that Chen Chunan had actually "let the two escape," the Wine Taoist frowned slightly.
"If these two escape, it will likely cause more trouble."
Han Yuqiu looked at Chen Chunan with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong today?"
Chen Chunan knew that what puzzled the others was why he didn't have the strength he had before today.
"I only managed to enter the realm of emptiness and wondrous existence by sheer luck, which allowed me to unleash that cross-realm attack. Now that I'm no longer in that state, I thought I could capture the two of them, but I overestimated myself."
Xue Yue nodded: "I see. But it's alright. As long as the Nascent Soul stage expert doesn't come out, Jiangzhou will be safe. But do you know how this dragon offended the Dao Yi Sect?"
Jiaolong was an old friend of Chen Chunan, and now the group only hoped that Chen Chunan would not also become enemies with the Daoist sect.
Chen Chunan thought to himself that the sect had not anticipated his actions, otherwise the two men would not have reacted that way.
Chen Chunan paused for a moment and said, "Back then, the Dao Yi Sect provoked us first, and the Flood Dragon was forced to kill the Dao Yi Sect members in self-defense, which led to today's disaster. These two people are probably the master or fellow disciples of that so-called True Monarch Shoucheng."
The two from Dao Yi Sect were furious after being insulted by that middle-aged cultivator, and they didn't even exchange names.
The group was unfamiliar with the Central Region and did not know the status of the two men who had been beaten within the Dao Yi Sect.
Upon hearing this, the Wine Daoist breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, although we have become enemies with them, we are not their primary target. As long as they know that the Flood Dragon is not here, they probably won't bother coming here again."
Chen Chunan was somewhat puzzled by the Daoist's deduction: "As the saying goes, 'If you beat the young one, the old one will come.' Don't these two really intend to invite a Nascent Soul stage expert to come?"
Xue Yue laughed and said, "It's not about the lineage or direct disciples. Why would a Nascent Soul cultivator act rashly over something like this? Besides, even if they did come, they would still need to be able to break into the ancient immortal's cave."
Han Yuqiu added, "Not to mention my own cave dwelling, even Brother Xu's cave dwelling is not something a Nascent Soul cultivator could break through. It is a protective formation set up by an ancient immortal. Even though it has lost its original power after thousands of years, it is still not something a Nascent Soul cultivator could break through."
Chen Chunan nodded, bid farewell to everyone, and then transformed into golden light and returned to Yunyang Ridge.
Having experienced the wondrous state of emptiness and existence before, and having also accumulated merit by killing the viper, Chen Chunan was already capable of refining his elixir to the third stage.
However, extracting lead and refining mercury is a laborious process, so it has never been completed.
Now that everything is settled, Chen Chunan plans to consolidate his cultivation.
The summer solstice is in a few days, and the hexagram corresponding to heaven and earth is Tianfeng Gou.
You should reflect on this yourself to understand what the interaction between heaven and earth truly means.
Gou (姤) represents the arising of Yin from Yang at its extreme.
Just as Chen Chunan was about to hang up the sign announcing his seclusion, a fluctuation suddenly came from Chen Yunling's room in the west wing of the courtyard.
Chen Chunan was very familiar with that kind of fluctuation; it was the fluctuation of comprehending one's true nature and opening the Mysterious Female Gate.
Chen Chunan's heart was like a still lake.
Before long, cheers erupted from Chen Yunling's room: "I've grasped the true nature!"
After the cheers subsided, Chen Yunling pushed open the door with a bang and looked towards the main house, only to realize that her master seemed to have been paying attention to her for quite some time.
Chen Yunling tidied herself up, her face solemn, and quickly walked to Chen Chunan in small steps, then knelt down with a thud.
"Master, I have found true lead and true mercury, and have understood true feelings and true nature. Please pass on the torch, Master!"
Chen Chunan looked down at the girl kneeling before him: "Why are you so sincere and genuine?"
Chen Yunling firmly stated, "My true nature seeks freedom and liberation, no longer allowing my life to be controlled by others. My true feelings are respect for my teacher, loyalty, filial piety, and brotherly love!"
Chen Chunan nodded in satisfaction: "Good! Now that the great elixir has been found, the Qiankun Body should be complete. It's time for me to pass on the skills to you. The Cantong Qi says: 'According to the hexagrams, extract the symbols.' When you first start the fire, you can't find the opportunity to ignite it. You can observe the timing of the fire based on the heavens. As the saying goes: 'Frequent attempts lead to confusion, but prolonged confusion leads to enlightenment.'"
Chen Yunling's resolute gaze suddenly went blank: "Please enlighten me, Master."
Chen Chunan: "Refining lead and mercury is different from refining the elixir of immortality. It requires peeling and restoring. One can start from the hours of Xu and Hai and stop at the hour of Zi. The hour of Zi is the time when Yang returns, so that Yin rises and Yang descends, and one obtains true lead and mercury."
This is the time for the return of Yang, and the emergence of Yang to fight against the five Yin elements is called the Earth Thunder Return hexagram.
Take this opportunity to continue the fire, so that the two medicines combine in the Yellow Court, like dragon and tiger intercourse, from Fu to Gou, stripping away all Yin. Do this for one hundred days, which the ancients called: one hundred days of foundation building.
However, since you have mastered Qi cultivation, your essence, Qi, and spirit are far more stable than those of ordinary people.
You need to seize this opportunity yourself. Even your master successfully established his foundation in less than a hundred days.
Chen Chunan spoke with some uncertainty, after all, he did not have a renowned teacher to guide him.
How long it takes to complete the Foundation Establishment depends on one's own feeling; his experience of refining the Mysterious Pearl into an image was truly abnormal.
The first time he refined a fake elixir, his true feelings (the mind monkey) helped him open the Mysterious Gate, drawing in the Primordial True Qi. His essence, energy, and spirit were thoroughly refreshed and replenished. Although he later acted recklessly like a mortal dragon or tiger, his foundation was not damaged.
The second time, the timing was unclear, but the lead and mercury had been refined for many days, and it was unknown how many days had passed.
The third time, the Mysterious Pearl was formed in one hour, and the Elixir was renewed once every three months.
This is of almost no reference value to Chen Yunling.
Chen Yunling listened, somewhat confused: "Master, how do we control the heat? When should we use a gentle flame and when should we use a strong flame?"
"Start with the heart fire, also known as Ding fire, using five ounces of fire, a gentle fire... repeat this process three times to refine emotions, and five times to refine nature. Then the medicine is ready."
...
After passing on the fire, Chen Yunling bowed in gratitude and departed. Chen Chunan recalled what she had said during the fire-passing ceremony and felt a pang of emotion.
"The second stage of the Elixir Rejuvenation will begin today!"
He then sat cross-legged on the cloud bed and began to replenish lead and mercury again to solidify the mysterious pearl.
the other side
After swallowing a elixir with a pained expression, Xuanxiao's face showed lingering fear.
He didn't expect that after he revealed his family background, the several Nascent Soul cultivators from Jiangzhou were not afraid at all, but instead seemed ready to silence him.
Especially that Chu Nan Zhenjun, whose magic weapon was incredibly powerful, and whose great formation had nine Nascent Soul array spirits, but unexpectedly it was almost shattered on the spot by a single blow.
And that woman, who was clearly a demon, possessed incredibly powerful magical weapons; she crippled Xuanjing in an instant.
The woman who unleashed such great power, though not particularly strong, possessed an extraordinary lineage and a foundation that might not be inferior to that of my own Daoist sect.
The more Xuanxiao thought about it, the gloomier his face became: "This dragon really knows how to find a backer!"
"In my opinion, that dragon is no longer in Jiangzhou, otherwise he wouldn't have missed such a good opportunity. Why don't we wait until we've recovered from our injuries and then perform divination again?"
Xuanxiao's eyes flashed like knives as he looked at Xuanjing: "Are you perhaps afraid of a few Nascent Soul cultivators in Jiangzhou?"
Xuanjing remained silent and walked to the side, where he sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing and heal his injuries.
Xuanxiao Peak was already in decline within the Dao Yi Sect, originally consisting of only three Nascent Soul cultivators.
Zong Yao originally had good talent and was being trained as a Nascent Soul cultivator, which is why he went to the ancestor to ask for an opportunity to participate in the True Dragon Remnant Soul competition.
Little did anyone expect that a single wrong decision would not only kill Zong Yao, but also take down the city guard who had already reached the Nascent Soul stage!
Last time, our peak paid a heavy price for attacking the Soul Refining Sect.
With the local sects in Jiangzhou so united now, it's impossible for the two of us to win without seeking help.
But how much more price can I pay for this peak?
After a long silence, Xuanxiao understood Xuanjing's thoughts.
"You were careless this time and didn't dodge. If you hadn't taken that small seal head-on, you wouldn't be so badly injured. Even if we hadn't been injured, if we had joined forces, we would have at least beaten those Nascent Soul cultivators to a pulp."
Xuan Jing remained silent. It wasn't that he was careless; if those methods had been aimed at Xuan Xiao, he would have been doomed too!
Seeing that Xuanjing closed his eyes and remained silent, Xuanxiao had no choice but to sit cross-legged and regulate his breathing to heal his injuries.
But he remained unsettled.
