Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 646: Making Pills
Heavenly Punishment.

Silver lightning surged incessantly, and golden light rippled within the hall. Xu Xuan, dressed in a silver robe, held the Golden Crow and Sun Pattern Treasure Bag in his hand, examining it closely.

【Changyan Yuguang Bag】

This solar artifact is extremely precious, surpassing many spiritual treasures in value. It is extremely rare in the world and has four wondrous functions. Apart from the dazzling [Falling into the Sky], the [Crow's Roar] which manifests the golden crow, and the [Light Absorbing] which collects the light of the Dharma, the most precious and wonderful function is [Converging the Sun].

If activated by a member of the Sun Dao lineage or a close cultivator, this treasure bag can be refined from sunlight to obtain the essence of the sun. This is a fundamental spiritual item of the Sun Dao, useful for both cultivation and alchemy.

Xu Xuan gently pushed the bag, and seeing the treasure descend leisurely, he smiled and said:
"If Xiao Wen were to take this bag and place it on the Heavenly Fire Platform, who knows how many years it would take to extract a single essence of the sun?"

Liu Xiaowen took the treasure, sensed it briefly, and pondered for a moment:
"Tianhuotai was originally the place where our ancestors collected the light of heaven and absorbed the Bing fire. The sunlight was extremely strong there. It also received the aura of my breakthrough, making it a place of great brilliance of the sun."

"The Bing Fire has the effect of stimulating the light of heaven. I used my supernatural powers to place this item on the Heavenly Fire Platform and bless it every month. It should be able to be refined into one pill every thirty years."

"it is good."

Xu Xuan was slightly pleased. This speed was already quite fast. The value of a single ray of solar essence was quite extraordinary. Whether for trading or personal use, it was an extremely precious resource.

"You have made great contributions to Qingye Kongtian. This one Sun Artifact alone is enough to solidify the foundation of the sect and is the basis for the prosperity of the Binghuo lineage."

His eyes held a hint of encouragement, for the essence of the sun produced by this treasure bag alone was a spiritual object that greatly benefited the Bing Fire element, whether used for cultivation or breakthroughs.

If someone cultivates the Bing Fire element, breaks through supernatural powers, and refines the essence, their chances of success will greatly increase.

"My progress to this point is entirely due to the guidance and training I received from this school, but I dare not take credit for it."

Liu Xiaowen was also quite fond of this treasure bag. He cultivated the Bing Fire element and was close to the sun, which allowed him to fully utilize the wonders of this treasure. If he could refine it completely, the blessing that the [Long Flame Radiance Bag] would give him would be no less than that of a supernatural power.

"From now on, you will be in charge of this weapon. However, we are still lacking a close-combat weapon. If the Hengguang Sword were here, we wouldn't have to worry about that."

Xu Xuan pondered for a moment. He had already heard Liu Xiaowen recount the events within the cave, and thus gained a considerable understanding of the nature of Bing Fire.

Since this fire can enhance the body's vital energy and blood, and is also connected to witchcraft, it can be used at both close and long range during combat, making it quite powerful. It only lacks a weapon for close-quarters combat.

"I'll keep an eye out for you and see if there's anything suitable. It would be best if we could exchange it."

Xu Xuan originally wanted Wen Guang to reforge the magic sword, but the sect didn't have any suitable spiritual items left, so he decided to see if he could exchange for one.

"Thank you, Master."

Liu Xiaowen's heart stirred slightly. He looked at the fiery tiger fang at his waist and felt a little regretful.

This magic sword is of very poor quality. If it wants to be upgraded to a Purple Mansion Spiritual Weapon, it is impossible to nurture it with supernatural powers alone. It must be equipped with a great deal of Bing Fire spiritual materials.

"Now that the Great Flame Horn Furnace has been acquired, it can be used directly against the enemy."

He softened his tone and activated his magical light, and several scrolls of Taoist books fell down.

“I made a copy of the ‘Jiefa Xuan Lei Jian Jie’ and gave it to Xingfang. Also, the ‘Chi Zhao Gu Wang Dian’ and the ‘Huo Zheng Shen Ti’ are both from the Bing Huo lineage of the ancient Chu state. They are quite different from those in my sect and can be used for reference.”

Xu Xuan glanced at it, took the sword fragment first, and after a brief look, he found that it was indeed the ancient Thunder Palace's Tribulation Sword Technique.

This sword manual details how to guide Qi through swordplay, consisting of three forms. It is a profound method of integrating swordsmanship with heavenly tribulations, and it is quite enlightening for him now.

However, this sword technique does not contain any profound methods like the "Free and Easy Wandering" or "Root of Heaven and Earth" that use sword energy and sword intent to create a unique and mysterious method. In fact, it is clearly recorded that only Fengxuan, Chunyang, and Yuejue possess such profound techniques.

"In sword intent, Feng Xuan is the foremost; in sword dao, Chun Yang is the foremost; in sword zhi, Yue Jue is the foremost."

His gaze shifted slightly, finally settling on the two characters "Feng Xuan".

"Master, our sect is the successor of the Fengxuan lineage. We wonder when we will be able to revive this path."

Liu Xiao was moved by the sound of his voice. After seeing the scene in the Blessed Land of White Paper, he had more to think about his family’s inheritance. Feng Xuan must be a great Dao that had a great reputation in ancient times, and it is very likely that it is a lineage that was directly passed down from Xuan Qi.

"This matter requires careful consideration. What is the current situation with Fu Chen?"

Xu Xuan asked about this matter in a low voice.

"The war in the South China Sea is still ongoing. I heard that this sect has closed its mountain and banned entry and exit from the Daiye Blessed Land, causing quite a commotion."

Liu Xiaowen had been keeping a close eye on the Southern Immortal Path's movements during this period, and upon receiving the news, his tone became somewhat relaxed.

"Our sect has always been at odds with Fu Chen. In recent years, due to the Lei Department and Tai Zhen, the other side has not dared to attack us directly. Now that True Monarch has gone to the battle outside the heavens and the sect has closed its mountain, it has relieved a lot of pressure on our sect."

Xu Xuan seemed to remember something, and said:

"The statue of [Scorching Spirit] can be sent to Douyan first. It would be best to ask if there are any Ding Fire ancient artifacts, preferably those that are compatible with the nature of calamity."

He took out another dark red fire token, inscribed with the words "Solid Illness," which was clearly a token obtained from the Azure Leaf Sky. "There should be the Ding Fire inheritance in the Azure Leaf Sky, but unfortunately Fu Chen was also there, so naturally they took it all. The Ding Fire items of the Great Li were also taken. Now we can only search for them overseas."

"The disciple understands."

Liu Xiaowen had heard his master talk about the power of the "Three Calamities." If it could be accomplished, it would be an extremely powerful technique, giving him more leeway in dealing with the Liao people in the future.

"Go overseas first, and while you're at it, retrieve the [Shunjie Treasure Time Soil] and entrust it to True Person Pingxiu. Ask him about alchemy, and he'll pay you the normal reward."

"Yes."

Upon receiving the order, Liu Xiao immediately fled and headed to the location of the Heavenly Fire Platform. He wanted to properly place the treasure bag to refine the essence of the sun.

Suddenly, golden energy arose in the main hall.

A sword pellet, emitting golden light, slowly rotated and landed in front of Xu Xuan. It faintly displayed the inheritance within it, which made the sword box inside Xu Xuan's body respond.

Something beyond measure.

If Fengxuan Sword Dao is close to Xuanqi and Chunyang Sword Dao is close to the sun, then the Yuejue lineage has a close relationship with Jinde. Moreover, the [Dayan Five Metal Flying Sword] recorded in this item is a wonderful combination of the five metals.

Xu Xuan himself did not want to practice it, but as a token of the Yuejue lineage, this item might have other uses.

He stored the sword pellet inside his inner world, and his mind sank into it. In one breath, he arrived in the cave and went straight to the front of the [Immortal Bestowal Office] residence.

Tian Tuo had been waiting in front of the sea of ​​golden and white flowers for a long time, and was getting impatient, so he urged Xu Xuan.

The human and the demon headed straight for the Guandao Hall in the cave. Their purpose was quite clear: to offer the sword pellet as a token in the hall and see if anything would change.

The Guandao Hall still stands here, with the Xuanqing Qi flowing endlessly. Xu Xuan stepped into it, and the Yin and Yang symbols under his feet slowly swirled. He then sent the sword pellet into the void above.

A cloud of green vapor billowed, and all was silent.

The sword pellet fell from the sky without any reaction, which disappointed Xu Xuan. He had wanted to try to inherit the Yuejue Dao, but it seemed that was no longer possible.

Now that Shu Han has broken through, he has accumulated a lot of immortal virtue, but most of it has been used to exchange for profound qi to cultivate Qiheng. The rest is just enough to prepare for the [Tasting Profound Qi and Elixir Method].

Even if one obtains the Supreme Sword Dao, it's probably too expensive to exchange for it.

Xu Xuan's mind gradually calmed down. He walked out of the temple hall and saw Tian Tuo still waiting outside. He shook his head, indicating that it was not advisable.

A sword box shrouded in black and white energy fell from the sky, subtly echoing the sword pellet. With a thought, Xu Xuan sent the sword pellet into the box, and the [Great Evolution Five Metal Flying Sword] manual immediately appeared.

As the sword pellet landed in the box, it began to continuously absorb the five metal elements from a certain place, slowly solidifying and showing signs of transformation.

"Let's keep them healthy for now and see who can use them later."

The flying swords of the Yuejue lineage have no requirements for sword intent or even sword qi; they are more like spells. Xu Xuan understood this when he was studying the flying sword technique in the "Sword Explanation of Life and Death Two Qi".

"We already have the alchemy techniques and spiritual herbs; now all we need is an alchemist!"

Tian Tuo's golden eyes gleamed, and he said solemnly:
"If you can kidnap one, that would be great. If not, I'll have to take matters into my own hands. Shaoyang is also the path to alchemy, but you'd better find me a Shaoyang fire."

"Real fire won't work?"

"No."

"The method of taking the Mysterious Elixir involves using various yin and yang substances to make the elixir, which can even absorb the mysterious qi. Its effects are extraordinary, so it naturally requires a spiritual fire of extremely high rank to refine it. The elixir furnace can be the earth-containing furnace, but the spiritual fire must be of the highest quality. It must be taken from yin and yang, with lesser yang being the most suitable."

Tian Tuo's tone was slightly somber. Although he was not knowledgeable in alchemy, he was currently idle in the cave and studying the alchemy manual every day. It was not that he couldn't give it a try, but he was definitely not as good as an experienced alchemist.

"Where can I find the fire of youth for you?"

Xu Xuan felt a headache just listening to it; things of yin and yang were hard to find, let alone the barely visible Lesser Yang.

He focused his mind, then gently exhaled, breaking through the void, and headed towards the direction of Misty Peak, instantly landing in that grand hall.

Inside the hall, a thin young man was cultivating. The earth energy was rising, and his immortal foundation had reached its peak. When he saw Xu Xuan, his eyes changed, and he immediately stood up and bowed.

"Congratulations on your completion of seclusion, Master."

He had not received any news of Xu Xuan's return to the mountain. Upon seeing him now, he thought for a moment and realized that his master had already perfected the cultivation of the third supernatural power.

"I have come here to discuss the matter of supernatural powers with you."
