I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 146 Primordial Qi (Seeking monthly votes)

Jiang Yi slept for seven days.

I felt even more tired after waking up.

For the past seven days, the "Controlling the Cauldron" technique of the Creation and Longevity Cauldron had been playing on a loop in her mind, like a tight headband, making her head ache.

As Jiang Yi sat up and raised her hand, Hua Gu handed her her water gourd.

Jiang Yi squinted and took a sip, then reached into his pocket and pulled out the Yu Ding brand.

As expected, the cracked jade pendant has been put back together. Although it is not completely repaired, it can still be used as a functional piece.

Jiang Yi felt that she was essentially a repairman; no matter what was broken, she could fix it.

Heaven and Earth are the origin of primordial energy and the ancestors of all things.

This is a sentence that appears in most Taoist scriptures: Primordial Qi is the power that creates all things.

If laziness is truly related to innate Qi, then her ability to repair various things makes perfect sense.

Lazy Root is a trap for innate source energy. As long as she follows the Lazy Way to communicate with heaven and earth, she can capture the most primordial innate source energy between heaven and earth.

The current laziness is definitely not high-quality innate source qi. As her laziness improves, the innate source qi she absorbs will surely become more and more refined.

It is said that only those who have reached the Refining Void stage, which is above the Nascent Soul stage, can initially perceive the existence of innate source energy. Therefore, it is reasonable that the Nascent Soul cultivators like Master could not detect Lazy Root.

In the entire Northern Profound Realm, there isn't even a Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone a Void Refinement Grandmaster.

It's not that the cultivators of Beixuan are incompetent; it's mainly because Beixuan is too small. Apart from the nine major immortal sects, which can still retain a few Nascent Soul cultivators, other cultivators who can advance to the Nascent Soul stage will go to the more expansive Eastern Continent, which has richer spiritual energy and resources, once they reach the Golden Core stage.

To travel from Beixuan to Dongzhou, one must cross the Boundless Sea. The Boundless Sea is fraught with danger due to the constant, stagnant winds and its chaotic, boundless magnetic field, which makes it easy for even Nascent Soul cultivators to lose their way. Teleportation arrays cannot guarantee accurate teleportation, and there is only an opportunity to travel by ship approximately once every thirty years.

The time she received the invitation to the Sword Trial was the most recent time the passage opened, when the envoy of the Eastern Continent Immortal Alliance received a letter of appeal from the Northern Profound Immortal Alliance and came to Northern Profound to check on the situation of the demonic tide.

We've gone off-topic. Regardless of what laziness and laziness actually are, the current situation is very advantageous to her.

The Yu Ding brand desperately craved innate source energy. After she fell asleep, it almost took the initiative to claim her as its master, wanting to absorb some innate source energy from her.

This may be why she always attracts all sorts of demons and spirits, their instincts driving them to approach her, such as the Heart-Piercing Mirror.

After pondering some trivial matters, Jiang Yi fully woke up, opened her eyes wide and scanned her surroundings. She sniffed and smelled an enticing aroma of food, and her stomach immediately began to rumble uncontrollably.

Turning his head, he saw Hongli and Baozhu squatting beside the extra-large cooking cauldron like the left and right guardians, craning their necks to stare at the things stewing in the pot.

The aroma wafted from the cooking pot. Shang Shixu sat upright with his bowl and chopsticks, secretly swallowing his saliva. He wanted to ask several times when it would be ready, but seeing Shen Puning lying on the ground drawing talismans, he could only continue to endure it.

Zhao Cangyun practiced his swordsmanship in a more distant place, holding the nameless sword manual, while the jade snake was hung on a tree by him.

Xin Wushuang sat cross-legged in meditation, Wanli resting on her shoulder. The two were surrounded by azure and gold spiritual energy, and Xin Wushuang had a faint feeling that she was about to enter the peak of Qi Refining.

At the beginning, among the five of them, Shang Shixu had the highest cultivation level, followed by Zhao Cangyun and Shen Puning, while Xin Wushuang lagged behind, ranking last.

Last year, Shang Shixu and Zhao Cangyun reached the peak of Qi Refining one after the other, followed by Shen Puning.

Because she tried to sleep, and Hua Gu and Hong Li worked hard to cultivate, they devoured two early Foundation Establishment stage demon seeds, which forcibly pulled her into the peak of Qi Refining.

Although Xin Wushuang was a little behind, she was the new generation's "Queen of Scrolls," and sure enough, she caught up again!

"Hua Gu, help me up, I want to eat."

Whoosh!

The ingredients were brought from outside by Shen Puning. After entering the secret realm, Shang Shixu instructed everyone not to eat the food here. Even if there was nothing to eat in the future, only if his insects had eaten it and it was safe for others to eat it.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, and once Xin Wushuang awoke from her meditation and her cultivation had stabilized, Jiang Yi gathered the four of them together and took out the partially repaired Cauldron Control Token. "Everyone, we've been quite lucky. I now know how to temporarily reseal the Cauldron Spirit. I need you to create an opportunity for me to get close to the cauldron."

Everyone remained calm upon seeing the Yu Ding plaque, as they already knew that Jiang Yi was cultivating a fragment of the "Azure Emperor's Longevity Scripture," and Zhao Cangyun knew even more, so they were even less surprised.

Jiang Yi continued, "The difficulty of this matter lies in my current insufficient cultivation level. In order to ensure the smooth sealing, I cannot waste any true essence, so I cannot take action after entering the Azure Emperor Palace."

Zhao Cangyun said confidently, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will definitely fight my way out for you."

Shen Puning threw out several bundles of talismans, generously giving one bundle to each person.

"These are all talismans for warding off evil. I've been testing them through the crack in the door these past few days, and they're very effective against the Green Vine Demon Guards and the Fire Spirit of the Alchemy Furnace. I don't know if it's the effect of the talismans themselves or the blood that Senior Brother Zhao gave me."

Jiang Yi chuckled. This was the first time she had ever seen bundles of talismans like this. There must be at least a hundred in this bundle.

It is evident that Shen Puning has not rested at all these past few days, and has been drawing talismans continuously, and her drawing skills are superb.

Subconsciously, Jiang Yi glanced at Zhao Cangyun, who indeed twitched his forehead and secretly rotated his wrist.

"Senior Sister, you can use these talismans. I don't need them. Master found me a kind of golden strange fire that has the power to ward off evil." Zhao Cangyun said guiltily, afraid that Jiang Yi would see through him.

Jiang Yi handed her and Zhao Cangyun's bundles to Shang Shixu and Xin Wushuang respectively. Zhao Cangyun didn't need them, and she couldn't waste her true energy.

Of the magical artifacts belonging to Qin, Zhang, and the others, the Earth Soul Seal is in Shen Puning's hands, the Immortal Slaying Talisman and the Thousand Blade Umbrella have been refined by Xin Wushuang, and the Surging Wave Ruler has been temporarily given to Shang Shixu.

As for the remaining Crimson Silk, Zhao Cangyun absolutely refused to take it, insisting that it was a woman's item and would affect his performance.

Helpless, Jiang Yi had no choice but to refine it with Yin-Yang True Qi and keep it for his own use.

Shen Puning and the others initially didn't want the Earth Soul Seal and other magical artifacts, saying they were Jiang Yi's spoils of war. Jiang Yi persuaded them that it was to defeat the remnant spirit of the Azure Emperor, and that if the artifacts were intact after the battle, they could be returned to her.

Only then did they agree to use it temporarily.

In addition to these magical artifacts, Shen Puning, Xin Wushuang, and Shang Shixu each had life-saving items given to them by their masters.

After another careful discussion of the battle plan, the group was ready.

With Zhao Cangyun leading the way on the Jade Serpent and Shen Puning riding the Wild Boar King Pearl, Jiang Yi in the middle, Hua Gu Hongli on either side, and Shang Shixu and Xin Wushuang assisting from behind, the group officially entered the Azure Emperor Palace.

As soon as Zhao Cangyun and Shen Puning entered, a cold wind suddenly rose, and the green vines guarding them all around twisted and writh like living creatures, instantly weaving into a cage of thorns.

The fire spirit of the alchemy furnace leaped out from the shadows, chuckling and smashing out a large number of poison pills. The ground trembled violently, and countless thick roots broke through the soil, coiling around everyone's legs like giant pythons!

"roll!"

With a roar, Zhao Cangyun drew his twin swords with a clang, golden flames shooting through the air, and the sharp sword energy cleaved through the thorny cage, carving out a path.

His movements were as swift as lightning; wherever his blade passed, golden flames raged and green vines were reduced to ashes.

"Behold my talisman to ward off evil!"

Shen Puning rode on the back of the Wild Boar King Baozhu, and with a wave of his hand, he threw out a talisman to suppress evil. The talisman's light fell to the ground like a meteor and exploded with a bang.

The Green Vine Guardian was terrified upon seeing the talisman light, as if it were its natural enemy. It withered and collapsed instantly when struck by the talisman light.

The fire spirit of the alchemy furnace let out a wail, and the poison pill it threw out was crushed into dust by the talisman power before it could explode.

However, the offensive did not stop, and the underground roots spread wildly, surging in like a tidal wave.

The lingering resentment of the Azure Emperor dragged the chains, and twelve green wooden swords flew through the air, their tips pointing directly at the five people.
