Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 602 Pretending to Hold a Golden Position
The two Dao fruits, Taiyin and Taiyang, are nestled together; naturally, they can only exert their maximum effect when they are together.

A True Lord's grotto-heaven also needs Dao Fruits to enhance their Dao cultivation. Yin and Yang are interdependent, which is extremely important for a True Lord in the Golden Core Realm.

The Dao Fruits associated with the Taiyin and Taiyang zodiac signs are naturally of the highest quality.

Xu Yunfan's true goal now is to use the Xuan Du Eight Scenes Refining Heaven Creation Cloud Book, which is nearing perfection, and combine it with the magical properties of his own Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Sky Undying True Scripture, to refine a magic treasure that can hold the essence of the Taiyin Profound Mirror Dao Fruit. He will then specially refine a container specifically for temporarily storing the core of this Dao Fruit.

A one-time use magic weapon that allows him to temporarily hold the position of a True Monarch and unleash his power for a brief period.

Fortunately, the Creation Cloud Manual contains the relevant refining methods, but they need some improvement.

If any other weapon refiner were to do this, it would be impossible in less than several hundred years.

However, Xu Yunfan has the attribute panel, and he has thoroughly grasped the key points and underlying logic of weapon crafting.

Know not only what it is, but also why it is so.

Xu Yunfan focused his mind and concentrated all his attention on refining the weapon.

As the hand seals were executed, eight scenic clouds burst forth from the dantian, their colors shifting and swirling, simulating the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.

The Divine Firmament Nine Heavens True Scripture was activated, and the power of the Thunder Origin was injected, adding a trace of immortality and dominion to the object it carried.

The Divine Firmament Thunder governs life and death, naturally endowing objects with the characteristic of sturdiness.

After doing all this, Xu Yunfan let out a soft breath, then activated the carefully arranged concealment array to completely hide himself.

Otherwise, once the Taiyin Xuanjian Dao Fruit is taken out and its aura spreads out, a True Lord might appear in front of him the next second and start shouting.

"Insects, hand over your Dao Fruit..."

After doing all this, Xu Yunfan carefully took out the Taiyin Treasure Mirror and floated it in front of him. He then took out the Taiyin Immortal Golden Nature that originated from the Heavenly Queen Star Soul and carefully guided it to serve as the core bridge connecting the container and the Dao Fruit.

Countless rare spiritual materials were smelted and purified in the Eight Scenery Clouds. Under the micro-sculpting of divine sense and attribute panel, an extremely complex and precise internal structure was constructed, like a miniature version of the Golden Core Cave Heaven prototype, waiting only for the Dao Fruit to return to its place so that it could be activated instantly.

This refining technique is extremely exquisite. Xu Yunfan is certain that the Creation Cloud Book, this true method of weapon refining, can only be created by a True Monarch at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

Otherwise, it wouldn't include auxiliary magic weapon techniques that were imitated from the cave heaven.

This process is extremely costly, pushing the limits of divine will, magical power, and resources.

Within the Shenxiao Peak cave, terrifying energy fluctuations flowed day and night, with eight-colored mysterious light, deep starlight, and sharp lightning flashing alternately.

If it weren't for the protective array and Xu Yunfan's careful concealment, such an unusual phenomenon would probably have already alarmed the sect.

Winter goes and spring comes; the seasons change.

In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.

On this day, deep within the cave of Shenxiao Peak, the surging spiritual energy fluctuations that had lasted for three whole years suddenly subsided.

The dense cloud of the Eight Views slowly receded, disappearing into the body of the cross-legged figure like a tide.

Xu Yunfan slowly opened his eyes, his pupils reflecting a mixture of purple lightning and eerie light, before finally settling into a deep and calm gaze.

He opened his palm, and a perfectly round crystal bead, the size of a pigeon egg, lay quietly in his hand.

"It's done!"

Xu Yunfan was filled with sighs and emotions.

Three years, three years!
Do you know how I've spent the last three years?

Only by keeping a close eye on things and constantly adjusting the heat can this treasure be made.

Even if it were any other weapon refiner, they wouldn't be able to reach Xu Yunfan's current level.

The bead appears crystal clear on the outside, but its interior resembles a deep, cold cosmic river, with countless tiny points of light flowing endlessly along mysterious trajectories. A chilling pressure of Daoist energy, far surpassing the Foundation Establishment level, is perfectly locked within this small crystal bead.

This is the extraordinary object he spent three years crafting, pouring in a vast amount of resources and effort.

A special container that can briefly contain the core of the Taiyin Xuanjian Dao Fruit and thereby activate its Dao power.

Holding this bead, Xu Yunfan clearly sensed that once activated, he could briefly assume the position of a Dao Fruit cultivator, borrowing a trace of the true power of a Golden Core True Monarch.

Although this false golden position may only last for a short time, and the materials used are difficult to replicate, it is already the strongest trump card and killer move he can possess during the Foundation Establishment stage.

In the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm, which Foundation Establishment True Person is as extravagant as him, using a Dao Fruit as his trump card to falsely hold the Golden Position?

Just as Xu Yunfan was carefully comprehending the result of this effort, which had cost a huge amount of money and time, a slight fluctuation came from the restrictions outside the cave.

The voice of the young Taoist priest on duty carried a mixture of respect and a hint of nervousness.

"Reporting to the Peak Master, Lu Chuan, a disciple of True Monarch Qingyuan, has come to pay a visit."

Xu Yunfan was slightly taken aback, not expecting Lu Chuan to come looking for him first.

He carefully put away the perfectly round crystal bead in his hand, meditated silently, and did not respond. If Lu Chuan intended to force his way in, Xu Yunfan would naturally need to make full preparations.

Although the probability of such a thing is very small.

But who knows if the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Yuanshi Sect have a more eccentric thought process than those fanatics of the Wancheng Sword Sect.

He had instructed himself during his previous seclusion that he was to refine weapons in seclusion and that no one should disturb him.

Seeing that the peak master seemed to be in a critical moment of seclusion and could not respond immediately, and not daring to keep Lu Chuan waiting, the young Taoist had no choice but to bite the bullet and report on his behalf.

"Master Lu, please forgive me. The Peak Master previously instructed that we should not disturb him unless it is something of great importance... Judging from the aura of his cave, it seems that he is still at the crucial point of stabilizing his cultivation."

Before the Peak Master went into seclusion, he left a message saying that if True Person Lu were to grace us with his presence and he was unable to greet him in time, he hoped that True Person Lu would understand that he needed to secure the opportunities in the Heavenly Realm.

After the Peak Master emerges from seclusion, he will personally visit 'Purple Star Peak' to pay his respects to the True Immortal as soon as possible.

Upon hearing the young Taoist's words, he showed no anger on his face, but rather a hint of understanding and comprehension flashed in his eyes.

He naturally sensed the lingering powerful aura deep within the cave.

"It doesn't matter."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, his voice calm and clear, looking just like a righteous and highly skilled cultivator.

"Junior Brother Xu has received a celestial opportunity, and he will naturally need time to consolidate and digest it. Building a solid foundation is the right path. You should guard the Peak Master's cave. After Junior Brother Xu completes his cultivation and emerges from seclusion, please tell him that I will be waiting for him at Zichen Peak."

After leaving those words, he vanished without a trace.

Now that Xu Yunfan has made a meritorious contribution by being the first to ascend the mountain, possesses remarkable talent, and is valued by True Lord Qingyuan, Lu Chuan naturally would not dare to disturb him rashly.

Furthermore, Foundation Establishment cultivators can go into seclusion for periods ranging from two or three months to seven or eight years.

Three years is neither a long nor a short time, so it's normal.

The opportunities gained from a celestial realm naturally require time to digest.

Lu Chuan guessed that Xu Yunfan might be able to break through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment by taking advantage of this opportunity.

He was naturally unaware that Xu Yunfan had already entered the late stage of Foundation Establishment in the Heavenly Realm; otherwise, he would probably have been even more shocked.

Xu Yunfan, inside the cave, felt a slight sense of relief as he sensed Lu Chuan's presence fading away.
