I get stronger every day I live.

Chapter 111: Immortal Sect Pursuit
Raiyang returns to his room.

In front of him were more than a hundred storage bags, all of which were spoils he had picked up during the battle.

Lai Yang took out all the things in the storage bag, put aside some messy things, and divided them into several categories -

Spirit stones, elixirs, skills, talismans, spiritual weapons, natural treasures, and other miscellaneous items.

Not to mention other things, just the number of spirit stones, Lai Yang harvested nearly ten million spirit stones during this trip to the True Dragon Secret Realm.

With a net worth of tens of millions of spirit stones, Lai Yang can be considered quite wealthy even if viewed across the entire continent.

In addition to the spirit stones, there are also piles of natural treasures and elixirs. These cultivation resources should be enough for him to cultivate to the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Lai Yang decided to stay in Lingtian Sect for the next few years and set a small goal first, to condense his Nascent Soul!
Lai Yang put all the things back into the storage bag, then looked at the pile of rare treasures and hesitated.

It would be a pity to refine it directly like this, as the efficiency of direct refining and absorption is too low.

Lai Yang suddenly remembered the alchemy technique he had seen in the Kung Fu Pavilion before. Perhaps he could try to refine the natural treasures into pills and then take them.

This will also maximize the benefits of natural materials and treasures.

Lai Yang can sense the fire and wood attributes of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so refining the elixir should not be a big problem. The main problem lies in his proficiency.

It just so happened that there were several alchemy furnaces in the storage bag he took out, which he could take out and use.

A few days later, a strong fragrance of elixir filled the air.

Lai Yang looked at the steaming third-grade pills in his hand, and felt a little excited.

"Master Dao has made it! From today on, I am also a third-grade alchemist, hahahaha..."

"Without further delay, let's try out the effects of the pill."

Lai Yang didn't hesitate. He threw the pill into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.

In an instant, a pure and powerful energy spread out from his dantian and poured into his limbs and bones.

Lai Yang immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot, refining and absorbing the medicinal power in his body, converting it into his own cultivation to improve his realm.

After a moment, Lai Yang opened his eyes and continued to refine the third-grade elixir.

After refining the elixir, eat it, after eating, practice, after practicing, continue refining the elixir, and repeat this cycle.

It’s not that Lai Yang doesn’t want to refine a fourth-grade elixir with better enhancement effects, but his spiritual cultivation level doesn’t support it.

The spiritual energy required to refine the elixir is extremely huge, and the better the quality of the elixir, the more so.

With Lai Yang's current cultivation level of the seventh level of the Jindan realm, he can refine third-grade pills, but refining fourth-grade pills is not so good.

He tried several times, but each time the materials were scrapped due to insufficient spiritual power supply, which made him very sad.

Two months passed like this, and Lai Yang broke through to the ninth level of the Jindan realm.

After breaking through the ninth level of the Jindan realm, Lai Yang did not continue to refine the elixir, but took out the earth dragon egg he had obtained in the True Dragon Secret Realm.

The earth dragon egg contains a trace of true dragon blood, so one can imagine how powerful the life energy in it is. It can just help him polish the golden elixir in his body to be more perfect and powerful.

The stronger the golden elixir is polished, the stronger the Nascent Soul condensed from it will naturally be.

Of course, what Lai Yang was most worried about was the thunder tribulation.

The power of the last thunder tribulation was already astonishing. When he breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, how terrifying will the thunder tribulation that comes then be?

The commotion would be so loud that he wouldn't be able to hide it even if he wanted to.

Before that, he had to polish the golden elixir in his body to perfection as much as possible, and stack some attribute values, just in case.

Lai Yang broke the earth dragon egg and swallowed up all the life essence contained in the egg. He also did not waste some of the egg liquid collected by Fang Dongming.

Then, a huge amount of life essence poured into Lai Yang's body, and was refined and absorbed by him, turning it into spiritual power, and all of it was integrated into the golden pill in his dantian.

Unconsciously, the golden elixir within Lai Yang's body seemed to undergo some strange transformation, faintly emitting a hint of dragon power. Thus, in order to nurture the golden elixir, refine it to perfection, condense the Nascent Soul, and successfully survive the next thunder tribulation, Lai Yang stagnated at the peak of the Core Formation Realm for two years.

For two years, apart from refining pills, practicing, eating monster meat, and refining golden elixirs, he also studied and comprehended the skills.

Lai Yang did not give up on creating the most suitable martial arts for himself. Although the martial arts of Lingtian Sect were all good, they were not very suitable for him.

With the system's help in adding points, he was destined to cultivate both spiritual and martial arts.

However, among all the skills of Lingtian Sect, there is no skill that can combine the two forces of Lingwu.

He always felt that those skills were not very powerful and not suitable for him.

But Lai Yang was not in a hurry. Just like his physical body, his spiritual understanding was also gradually improving over time.

He had enough time to slowly create the martial arts method that best suited him.

The three-year period has expired, the True Dragon Secret Realm has been closed, and it is time for Li Jingyuan and others to return.

However, Lai Yang did not expect this.

Half a month later, Li Jingyuan, Fu Yeliu, Zhu Fei and Gu Qingfeng came back, accompanied by many powerful men from other forces, each with an astonishing aura.

Lai Yang sensed something was wrong and immediately sent a message to Chu Xiao, "Chu Xiao, my enemies are here. If anyone asks you, you must tell them the truth and cooperate with them to save your life. But don't reveal our relationship as master and disciple. As time goes by, we will meet again one day."

Chu Xiao's face changed in shock, he didn't understand what was going on.

Immediately afterwards, several powerful auras appeared on the mountain.

Everyone used their spiritual sense to carefully explore the situation on the mountain, but found no trace of Lai Yang.

This behavior has confirmed that the person here has bad intentions.

At this moment, Li Jingyuan landed in front of Chu Xiao and asked in a deep voice, "Chu Xiao, has Fellow Daoist Lai returned?"

Seeing that everyone came with bad intentions, Chu Xiao subconsciously wanted to lie and say that he had never seen them before, but suddenly he remembered the message Lai Yang had just given him.

Since the master said so, he must be confident of escaping, so he should not be too clever.

"In reply to the Sect Master, the elder has returned." Chu Xiao said respectfully.

"Where is he?" Li Jingyuan asked.

"The elder is currently practicing in seclusion in his residence." Chu Xiao replied.

"Take us there."

"Yes."

Chu Xiao cooperated very well, and then brought everyone to Lai Yang's residence, and then to the place where he was in seclusion.

But when everyone arrived, Lai Yang had long disappeared. Only a slight smell remained on the ground, indicating that he had not been gone for long.

"Damn it, he found me, chase me!"

Seeing this, everyone looked angry and immediately dispersed to search for and track down the escaped Lai Yang.

After everyone left, Li Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chu Xiao in front of him.

He knew Chu Xiao's condition. At first glance, Li Jingyuan discovered that Chu Xiao's dantian and meridians had all been repaired.

Li Jingyuan thought about it and did not ask the reason. Instead, he said directly: "Chu Xiao, now that Fellow Daoist Lai has left Lingtian Sect, you are strong enough to become an inner disciple of Lingtian Sect again. You must practice diligently in the future."

Li Jingyuan's words directly made him jump back from the status of a menial disciple to an inner disciple.

If a menial disciple of Lingtian Sect wants to become an inner disciple, he must first become an outer disciple, and then defeat an inner disciple in public through a sect competition before he can replace the inner disciple and become a true inner disciple.

Li Jingyuan's actions were undoubtedly intended to tie Chu Xiao to the Lingtian Sect, leaving room for maneuver in the matter.
