The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 360 Advancement to First Rank

Unbeknownst to them, a piece of green wood spirit stone scattered like ashes, and all one million points of green wood spiritual energy within it were exhausted.

Wang Wu immediately took out another piece; this was the fourth one.

He only received five such green wood spirit stones from Liu Zongbai's estate.

At this time, this treasure really came in handy.

Three days later, the fourth piece of green wood spirit stone also turned to ashes. One million points of green wood spiritual energy were injected into the vortex, making the refining and purification process increasingly terrifying and difficult.

The vortex began to slow down because the efficacy of the seventh-grade Five Elements Spirit Pill was about to be exhausted. Without external power, it naturally came to an end.

"Unfortunately, it's not a Grade 6 Five Elements Spirit Pill after all; it's a bit lacking."

Wang Wu didn't care. He immediately condensed the Azure Wood Spirit Pill. As the vortex slowed down and the effects of the Five Elements Spirit Pill finally disappeared, a sky-blue Azure Wood Spirit Pill was successfully cultivated!
That's right, the Grade 5 Ruyi Green Wood Spirit Pill directly upgraded three grades from Grade 7!

It's insane, yet perfectly logical.

At this moment, Wang Wu's innate and acquired systems were like a giant tsar bomb thrown into a calm, deep lake, exploding and causing a huge uproar.

The once stable and balanced system structure was crumbling, and the two Ruyi Ice and Fire Elixirs launched the most terrible and severe repulsion against the Ruyi Green Wood Elixir.

How could you bypass us and keep a mistress!
This is unbearable! Let's rebel!

rebel!

The Ice and Fire Elixir went berserk, leaving the five Rank 5 Ruyi Demon Cores as unfortunate souls who had done something wrong, scrambling to put out fires and triggering the highest level of alert.

With the Five Elements Spirit Array at full power, Wang Wu's blood energy surged to its maximum. He even consumed three Grade 7 Five Elements Spirit Pills in one go to extinguish the fire, as if he wanted to stir up trouble.

Yes, he did it on purpose.

This was also the best cultivation model that the Four Clowns had planned for him.

How can the newly cultivated Green Wood Elixir be integrated into the existing, stable system? It's impossible for it to be perfectly integrated silently; that's simply not possible.

Then there will inevitably be clashes, conflicts, wars, and even immortality!
At this point, even a Five Elements Spirit Array couldn't withstand it.

It even affected the clear energy of the mind.

But this is indeed the best, the most effective way, to use this internal warfare to improve the bloodline's evolution level.

At this moment, Wang Wu was suffering tens of thousands of points of damage every second. He unleashed the full power of the Ice-Fire Spirit Pill and the Green Wood Spirit Pill, turning his body into a battlefield.

However, with the Five Innate Demon Pills stabilizing the situation, the level 20 self-healing ability, the Five Elements Spirit Array, and the Five Elements Spirit Pills, they can still hold on and avoid collapse.

It was because his vital energy and blood were being depleted too much, so Wang Wu would drink a large mouthful of spiritual liquid every few moments, and then continue to take the Five Elements Spiritual Pills as needed.

While repairing injuries, demon cores, and spirit pills, it is also a process of advancement.

Wang Wu called this tactic the "catfish resistance tactic"!
That Grade 5 Ruyi Green Wood Spirit Pill was like a catfish, directly disrupting the balance, breaking the comfort zone, and forcing the innate and acquired systems to be reshaped. In this process of resetting order from chaos to order, it was also the process of him becoming stronger.

Amidst chaos and fierce battles, people swallowed Five Elements Spirit Pills and drank sips of spiritual liquid.

With the support of massive resources, the situation finally became orderly.

The two Ice and Fire Spirit Pills did not truly accept the Grade 5 Ruyi Spirit Pill, but at least they could ensure that they would not infringe on each other. Under the supervision of the Innate Bloodline Demon Core, they signed a ceasefire agreement, set aside their disputes, and advanced together!

Finally, when Wang Wu exhausted the last bit of spiritual liquid he had stored, the two systems of innate and acquired finally ushered in a long-awaited peace. The innate and acquired systems could finally resume operation, and the inner and outer great cycles could continue. His basic goal had been achieved.

By this time, a full year had passed.

But none of that matters anymore, because Wang Wu's base attributes have gone berserk once again!

Lines of messages came roaring in like an angry volcano.

Explosions, everything exploded!
"You have cultivated a fifth-grade Ruyi Green Wood Spirit Pill, you have gained 700 years of lifespan, your health and stamina have increased by 2000 points, and your agility, strength and defense have increased by 100 points."

"Your Ruyi Ice and Fire Elixir has advanced to the fourth grade. You have gained 500 years of lifespan. Your health and stamina have increased by 4000 points, and your agility, strength, and defense have increased by 200 points."

"Your five Ruyi Demon Cores have advanced to the fourth grade. Since your Five Elements Spirit Array is based on these five demon cores, it is not the five demon cores that are advancing, but the Five Elements Spirit Array that is advancing. As a result, you have gained 2500 years of lifespan. Your health and stamina have increased by 5000 points, and your agility, strength, and defense have increased by 100 points."

"Your bloodline has broken through again due to this dangerous attempt. You have gained 2% of your bloodline evolution, currently at 62.5%. Your growth limit has been raised once again."

"Your passive stealth, danger perception, and self-healing bloodline talents can be upgraded to level 21."

"Your spiritual talent can be upgraded to level 18."

"Your Earthheart and Fury talents can be upgraded to level 12."

"Your current lifespan is 4816 years (including 500 years of aging)."

"Your current maximum health and stamina is 34000 points."

"Your base agility, base defense, and base strength have reached 750 points."

"Your Invincible Body Divine Ability has reached level 8+3+2, with a maximum limit of level 15."

"Your Demonic Wind Divine Power has reached level 7+2.5+1, with a maximum limit of level 15."

"Your Ruyi An Shen Fa (如意安身法) has reached level 6+2.5+1, same as above."

"Your passive stealth has reached level 20+1.5+1."

"Your Frost Shield spell has reached level 6+2.5+1."

"Your Flame Shield spell has reached level 6+2.5+1."

"Your wood-elemental magic has reached level 5." "Your passive skills, Frost and Burn, have been upgraded to level 12. The power of your ice and fire-elemental magic will be increased by an additional 120%."

"Your plant affinity has been raised to level 10, and the effects of your wood-type spells will be increased by an additional 100%."

"Because your basic attributes have returned to the top tier, you can once again unleash the Level 6 Golden Body Unbreakable. You can continue cultivating the Five Elements Golden Body."

"Friendly reminder: Because your health and stamina have exceeded 30000 points, your agility, strength, and defense have exceeded 500 points, and your Invincible Body, Demonic Wind, and Ruyi Anshen Divine Abilities have all reached level 9, you actually possess the strength of a first-grade great demon."

"Friendly reminder: Because you have mastered the ability to separate your primordial spirit from your body, and because your invincible body technique has reached level 13, you still have eight conditions left before you can become a super first-grade demon."

"Friendly reminder: Since you are not in the Great Wilderness Prison of Sin, you don't need to worry about being targeted by the Heavenly Tribulation."

"Friendly reminder: Your Grade 5 Ruyi Green Wood Spirit Pill has not yet been inscribed with the Dao technique. Please inscribe it as soon as possible to avoid wasting it."

"Hey hey hey!"

It feels so good to be strong again!

Wang Wu looked down at the countless hairs on his body, and randomly plucked one. It immediately emitted a colorful spiritual light, like a constantly changing flame, which was wonderful beyond words.

One particular wisp of purple aura was especially striking.

"You plucked a single hair from your body, and you obtained a first-grade innate bloodline magic treasure. This magic treasure does not need to be refined; it can be activated directly when needed, and it will transform into a first-grade great demon with approximately eighty percent of your strength!"

"Friendly reminder: If you do not want the quality of this first-grade innate bloodline magic weapon to decline, you need to pay attention to the usage time and damage after each activation. If it is used in battle, it is best to retrieve it within one hundred breaths. At the same time, you must inject one million points of qi and blood to nourish it again."

-

great!
Wang Wu immediately plucked another hair, but this time it became a second-grade item, and the purple aura in the hair became even fainter.

Sure enough, even you can't just take advantage of yourself.

Next, Wang Wu plucked three more roots, and their quality dropped again, all turning into third-grade innate bloodline magic treasures.

Even so, any one of these three is better than the best one that was pulled out earlier.

All five of these hairs can be directly manifested outside the body.

Moreover, it doesn't require refining, or even if you wanted to refine it, the resources needed would be astronomical.

Wang Wu is currently short of money; how can he possibly have enough?

I had no choice but to make do with it.

Next, he plucked 20 more hairs, but he couldn't pluck any more.

These mere 25 hairs caused Wang Wu to fall into a period of weakness that lasted for three whole months.

There's always a price to pay.

"These must be used sparingly and not wasted."

Wang Wu silently warned himself before falling into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, three months had passed, and he had recovered. Theoretically, he could still pluck 25 more of the same hairs, but in reality, it was not feasible.

During these three months of weakness, his blood and energy were almost completely depleted, and his spiritual energy was nearly exhausted. His whole body felt like it was suffering from hypoglycemia and was on the verge of fainting.

But there was no more spirit liquid left, so Wang Wu could only replenish it with spirit stones, spirit wine, and delicacies. He used up two-thirds of Liu Zongbai's inheritance in one go before he could basically make up for the deficit.

It's worth mentioning that his current maximum blood energy storage has reached two million points.

The standard spiritual energy reserve is 500,000 points.

The standard vitality value storage is 500,000 points.

The maximum storage limit for Frost Spirit Energy is 300,000 points.

The same applies to the storage limit of Crimson Flame Aura.

The upper limit for storing Azure Wood Spiritual Energy is only 100,000 points, because for the time being, this Grade 5 Ruyi Azure Wood Spiritual Pill can only be considered half integrated into the system.

In addition, the storage of the two innate bloodline magic treasures, the Ape Skull and the Fire Poison Remains, was exhausted during this chaotic adjustment, and they must be replenished this time.

"We're really running out of ammunition and food, but the hard times will be over soon."

Wang Wu smiled slightly. There were still about eight years until the Great Cold and Lesser Cold. By then, he could either absorb the spiritual energy of the ice to supplement his family's income or take advantage of the disruption of the spiritual network to go out and do whatever he wanted.

"what?"

Suddenly, a thought struck him. He casually put away the Xuan Iron Hut, and the next moment, he transformed into the appearance of the Wooden Immortal and appeared outside. There, he saw the Big Monkey, Old Zhou, Jia Ding Monkey, and a somewhat familiar young man standing there, calling his name over and over again.

Judging from the monkeys' radiant appearance, they seem to have had a pretty good year.

"Master Mu, it's been so hard to see you. Come, come, let's pay your salary first. We owe you ten years and eight months' worth of salary in the past, and we'll make up for it all this time."

The big monkey laughed and took out its spirit gourd, which it generously poured out to Wang Wu.

Good grief, what's going on?

Wang Wu certainly wouldn't refuse; this was all legitimate spiritual energy income, so why not take it? A full 128 million points of spiritual energy!

"Master Mu, you've worked so hard before, but now our Bear Ridge can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Did you know that Lord Muyang and King Xijiang have reconciled? Lord Muyang has decided to marry his youngest daughter to King Xijiang. The wedding is set for next month, and we will all be able to attend the ceremony."
