Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 9: Mana Clone, Entering Foundation Building

"Fortunately, after entering the foundation-building stage, I was able to learn a clone technique from the Taiyi Divine Thunder Art. This technique has no offensive power and can only split one's own magic power. A trace of divine consciousness enters it and forms a semi-illusory magic clone."

"Because the clone is not a physical entity and is formed by the splitting of one's own mana, if the mana clone consumes its mana, this part of its cultivation will be lost forever. Therefore, the best place to place the mana clone is the Purple Sky Cave, which can completely isolate it from the influence of the outside world."

"On the other hand, the magic clone can completely suppress my own cultivation realm. No one can see my true realm if they are not more than a few realms above me. This can perfectly conceal my rapidly growing cultivation and prevent high-level cultivators from mistakenly thinking that I have some rare treasures and are shameless enough to kill people for the treasures."

As for wanting to restore his cultivation, since his clone was in the Zixiao Cave Heaven, Nie Zhaonan only needed a thought, which was more practical than any other secret technique.

After building the foundation, I have to look for Xin Ruyin. Such a genius in formation must be included in my collection. Whether it is the teleportation formation leading to the Chaos Star Sea or the future formation refining, she is indispensable.

You can also go find Qi Yunxiao to learn the art of refining weapons.

After thinking it over, Nie Zhaonan gently put Nie Ying on the bed, covered her with a quilt, kissed her jade-like forehead, and continued to refine the elixir.

After three days, Nie Zhaonan completed the refining of Bai Ling Dan, with a total of 285 bottles and a success rate of %. Nie Zhaonan was also very satisfied with his alchemy skills.

In the following days, Nie Zhaonan and his companion began to take elixirs and practice magic.

A year and a half passed quickly, and Nie Zhaonan's cultivation had reached the peak of the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. His magic power was three times purer and stronger than that in the initial stage of Foundation Establishment. There was no room for improvement.

A spiritual spring had been placed in the room, emitting a rich spiritual energy, and the spring water was gurgling. Nie Zhaonan sat cross-legged on the futon, adjusting his mind and magic power, preparing to build his foundation.

As for Nie Ying, Nie Zhaonan said that he needed to practice a spiritual cultivation technique in seclusion for three months. Nie Ying did not have any doubts and only said that she would take good care of her husband and not let the outside world disturb her husband's practice. Nie Zhaonan naturally loved Nie Ying well before the seclusion.

In order to bring his entire body to its best condition, Nie Zhaonan decisively took the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The foundation-building pill quickly dissolved in Nie Zhaonan's stomach, and the medicinal effect took effect quickly. There seemed to be a fire burning in his dantian, which kept burning more and more vigorously, but his limbs and other parts of his body were extremely cold. These were two completely different extremes.

Nie Zhaonan endured the pain and discomfort in his body and practiced the Taiyi Shenlei Jue Qi training technique over and over again to quickly refine the medicinal power in his body.

Suddenly, a sharp pain as if the world was being torn apart came from Nie Zhaonan's dantian. Nie Zhaonan's face turned pale and beads of sweat produced by the severe pain fell "da da da" on the bluestone floor.

After a while, a stream of heat rushed from Dantian to his limbs and bones. It seemed that countless ants were crawling all over his body, and he felt itchy all over, and something was discharged from his body.

Nie Zhaonan looked at the thin layer of gray substance on his body and washed away the dirt with a cleansing technique. His skin also became whiter and tighter.

Activating the Taiyi Divine Thunder Art, the circulation of mana is also smoother and more unimpeded! Continuing to build the foundation, with Nie Zhaonan's unremitting efforts, relying on the advantages of pure and strong mana, as strands of spiritual energy are continuously absorbed into the body for refining.

Half a month later, he finally succeeded in building his foundation and entered the foundation-building stage!
Nie Zhaonan continued to practice the fourth level of Taiyi Shenlei Jue without stopping to stabilize his cultivation. After his realm was stabilized at the foundation-building stage, Nie Zhaonan split his magic power into a clone and placed it in Zixiao Cave Heaven.

Two months later, the task was completed.

Nie Zhaonan sat cross-legged on the cushion, feeling his own peak Qi Refining cultivation and the magical clone in the Zixiao Cave Heaven. A joyful smile appeared on his handsome and resolute face.

After splitting his magic power, although Nie Zhaonan was at the Qi Refining stage, he possessed the magic power quality and spiritual awareness that could rival that of a cultivator at the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment stage. He could easily kill a cultivator at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment stage, and he could also protect himself without any worries.

As soon as he came out of confinement, Nie Zhaonan felt Nie Ying's concern.

"My dear, you have come out of seclusion after more than two months. Did your seclusion go smoothly?" Nie Ying ran over to Nie Zhaonan as soon as he saw him leave the room. Nie Zhaonan naturally reached out and hugged her tightly, burying his head in Nie Ying's hair, greedily smelling the unique fragrance of a woman on Nie Ying.

Enjoying the comfort of his body, Nie Zhaonan said proudly: "My cultivation has greatly improved during this retreat! Ordinary foundation-building cultivators will not be my match."

Nie Zhaonan told Nie Ying about his cultivation situation in order to avoid causing Nie Ying to worry when he went out later.

Listening to her husband's bold words, Nie Ying believed them. After all, she had seen with her own eyes that her husband was able to kill a top-level first-level monster when he was only at the tenth level of Qi Refining.

"Hmm~, what are your plans for the future, my husband?" Nie Ying asked. She knew her husband's ambitions. He was determined to pursue immortality.

Now that my cultivation has reached a higher level, I will naturally make some plans and will not waste time.

Nie Zhaonan didn't think twice: "I do have a plan, but today, I still need Ying'er to celebrate for me." After saying that, he carried Nie Ying horizontally into the bedroom.

After a long period of seclusion, Nie Zhaonan is no longer unromantic, nor is he a person who abstains from meat and practices asceticism.

The next morning, Nie Zhaonan leaned against the bed, hugging his beloved. Nie Ying squinted her eyes and dozed comfortably in her husband's arms.

Nie Zhaonan reached into the quilt with his left hand and patted it twice. With his right hand, he took out a storage bag and placed it next to Nie Ying's bulging bellyband. He played with it for a while before instructing:

"Ying'er, in this storage bag, there are some elementary talismans that I have refined over the years, most of which are of thunder attribute. There are 5000 low-grade talismans, 2000 medium-grade talismans, and 1500 high-grade talismans. Sell all these talismans to the family. You can get them for a low price of spirit stones."

As Nie Zhaonan becomes stronger, his talisman-making skills have also greatly improved. Now he can refine first-grade, top-quality thunder ball talismans, which is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a cultivator in the late Qi Refining stage.

Moreover, because the talisman has the most violent thunder attribute, its killing power is much stronger than other talismans of the same level, such as the fire bomb talisman and the water ball talisman.

Feeling the abnormality in her body, Nie Ying opened her sleepy eyes. After hearing her husband's words, she said with surprise and joy, "Husband, I will definitely complete this matter well and will not let you suffer any loss."

It's just an ordinary low-level talisman. According to the market price, a low-quality talisman costs one spirit stone, a medium-quality talisman costs three spirit stones, and a high-quality talisman costs at least seven spirit stones.

There are so many thunder-attribute talismans, the low-grade and medium-grade ones alone are worth six or seven thousand spirit stones each, and the high-grade ones are worth twelve thousand spirit stones.

The total amount is 25,000 spirit stones. If a foundation-building family takes out so many spirit stones, it will probably use up all its cash flow.

However, the family will not suffer any loss. Thunder-attribute talismans are quite popular, and the family can earn several thousand spirit stones by selling them.

"Ying'er, when you return to the family this time, please make a copy of the family's weapon refining notes." Nie Zhaonan then mentioned it again.

Nie Ying nodded, her beautiful face still blushing like rouge, and she seemed to be still immersed in the shock brought by so many talismans. She replied softly: "I understand."
