At the age of one hundred, I inquired about the Dao, awakening the supreme spiritual root that shatt

Ling Xiu was extremely excited and finally understood everything.

The Black Fiend Sect has been relentlessly pursuing Ling Xiewei, but the Treasure Spirit Pill Sect may not be aware that the "Mysterious Origin Creation Pill Scripture" has fallen into Ling Xiewei's hands.

This alchemy manual is a coveted treasure for any alchemist, and it is equally important to Ling Xiu.

He possessed the Mysterious Gourd of Heaven and Earth, and was not lacking in elixirs, but he lacked only precious elixir formulas and profound knowledge of alchemy.

Now that he has obtained this alchemy manual, coupled with the Supreme Alchemy Furnace that he cannot yet open, it will surely bring him immeasurable assistance on his path of alchemy.

This is enough to make him grow into a dazzling alchemist and shine brightly in the world of alchemy.

Suppressing his overwhelming joy, Ling Xiu fell into deep thought.

"Ling Xiewei is already dead, but the Black Fiend Sect will never give up and will continue to search for his whereabouts on a large scale."

Once they learn that this treasure has fallen into my hands, all the trouble will be directed at me.

"We absolutely cannot return to the Qingyun Sect. Aside from the fact that Ye Chunqiu remains a major threat, the sect would never risk offending the powerful Black Fiend Sect for my sake!"

Soon, a bold idea came to Ling Xiu's mind.

"It would be better to go to the Southern Spirit Domain. This place is under the jurisdiction of the Black Fiend Sect and the Treasure Spirit Pill Sect. Being under their noses would be the safest option."

They never dreamed that I would do the opposite and deliberately step into the heart of both major powers.

In addition, Ling Xiu planned to completely burn the original text after he had thoroughly memorized the entire "Mysterious Origin Creation Pill Canon".

Carrying this item with you is too dangerous. This treasure, which is enough to make cultivators from all sides fight madly for it, must not be kept by your side.

"Let's put the alchemy aside for now. To establish a stable foothold, we need to possess sufficiently formidable strength."

Having set his goal, Ling Xiu quickly calmed down and began his secluded cultivation.

He simultaneously circulated the "True Secret of Longevity" and the "Nine Dragons True Immortal Secret" within his body, advancing both physical cultivation and offensive and defensive techniques.

After the Qiankun Xuanhu upgraded the quality of the pills, he consumed and refined a large quantity of them.

After being purified and advanced by the Xuanhu, the cultivation method of "Nine Dragons True Immortal Technique" became simple and easy to understand, and Ling Xiu quickly grasped the essence of the technique.

This physical cultivation technique requires a massive amount of spiritual pills and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to continuously temper the body and forge an incomparably powerful physique. The "Nine Dragons True Immortal Technique" is divided into three stages: early, middle, and late.

Once one cultivates to the early stage, one can possess a terrifying physical body at the late stage of True Condensation. Ordinary spiritual weapons can hardly harm one in the slightest, and one can even withstand the attack of spiritual weapons head-on.

If one wants to break through to the mid-to-late stage, one must consume a massive amount of medicinal resources and supplement them with rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth to make progress.

This cave dwelling is rich in spiritual energy, which can not only stabilize one's cultivation level but also continuously temper one's physical body. Ling Xiu was surrounded by the power of nine dragons, and his meridians and flesh underwent a comprehensive transformation, with a layer of silver radiance often floating on his body.

Through the changing seasons, Ling Xiu spent countless days in his cave, only remembering that the wild peach trees outside the cave blossomed and bore fruit seven times.

Seven years have passed. The situation outside the Great Wilderness has changed drastically, and the Qingyun Kingdom has been transformed after the turmoil of that year.

He ignored everything else and devoted himself to seclusion and ascetic practice.

Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Ling Xiu slowly opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with sharp light, and his body exuded a powerful and majestic aura, as if a celestial being had descended to earth, his temperament as elegant and otherworldly.

His cultivation level broke through from the sixth level of the Condensation Realm to the tenth level of the Condensation Realm, reaching its peak.

With the blessing of a massive amount of elixirs and immortal rain, he successfully cultivated the Nine Dragons True Immortal Technique to the early stage, making his physical body as solid as a top-grade spiritual weapon, and ordinary magic weapons could not harm him in the slightest.

"It took seven years of arduous training to achieve such a transformation. In the eyes of outsiders, I can be considered a prodigy who defies the heavens."

Feeling the surging power within his body, Ling Xiu was very satisfied with the results of his seven years of hard training.

However, the pills in the Qiankun Ring had been completely used up, the spirit stones were almost gone, and only a few drops of the precious Immortal Spirit Rain Liquid remained.

The path of cultivation consumes terrifying amounts of resources. If I hadn't accumulated a substantial fortune in my early years, I wouldn't have been able to reach this point.

In the past seven years, apart from cultivation, Ling Xiu had already memorized all the pill formulas and alchemy secrets of the "Mysterious Origin Creation Pill Canon". After confirming that he had memorized them correctly, he completely destroyed the original text, and the heavy weight in his heart was finally lifted.

During this period, he tried several times to comprehend the Mysterious Gourd of Heaven and Earth and the Supreme Pill Furnace, but unfortunately his cultivation was insufficient and he was never able to unlock the mysteries of the two treasures.

It seems that I will only be able to fully control the power of the treasure once I break through to the Profound Realm.

Ling Xiu was filled with anticipation, intuitively feeling that these two treasures were unparalleled gems, containing mysteries far beyond his imagination.

He put the Supreme Alchemy Furnace into the Qiankun Mystic Gourd, and then refined the gourd below his dantian to ensure the safety of the treasure to the greatest extent.

"The Nine Dragons True Immortal Technique has only been cultivated to the early stage. To break through to the middle stage, a large amount of resources are still needed."

Once you reach the mid-stage, your physical body will undergo a qualitative change, and your combat strength alone will rival that of a Transcendent Realm cultivator!

Ling Xiu pondered to himself.

The Nine Dragons True Immortal Technique combines offense and defense, possessing boundless power. When cultivated to the later stages, one can shatter the heavens, tear apart space, and move mountains and fill seas with a single punch using only their physical body. With a mere gesture, one can kill a Nascent Soul expert, making its power extremely terrifying.

While there are still ways to break through in the early and middle stages, cultivation becomes extremely difficult beyond the middle stage. Not only do you need to accumulate a massive amount of resources, but you also need many rare and precious materials to assist you.

To break through to the middle stage of cultivation, the first priority is to gather the three energies of extreme yin, extreme cold, and extreme yang, harmonize and integrate them to temper the physical body, complete the ultimate transformation, and condense the initial body of a true immortal.

After completing the cultivation, even if one remains at the Condensation Realm, one will still have the strength to fight against cultivators at the Profound Realm, without any fear.

"It's time to leave the cave and go out to gather resources."

With his mind made up, Ling Xiu removed all the formations surrounding the cave, and in a flash, he sped off towards the outside of the Great Wilderness Mountain.

White clouds surged in the sky, and golden rays of sunlight pierced through the clouds, falling warmly upon one's body.

After making great progress in his cultivation level, he felt his meridians were relaxed and comfortable.

Having determined his location, Ling Xiu headed straight for the Southern Spirit Domain in the south.

He had a clear plan in mind: first, find a market town where independent cultivators gathered to settle down, gather intelligence from all sides of the Southern Spirit Region, and then start collecting the rare and precious materials needed to break through his cultivation technique.

……

Ling Xiu, enveloped in a protective aura of spiritual light, flew through the air for several days before finally leaving the Eastern Spiritual Domain and entering the Southern Spiritual Domain, arriving at a bustling market town teeming with independent cultivators.

Qingyang Holy City.

Looking from afar, the city appears vast and majestic, with buildings and palaces stretching out along the mountainside.

The towering city walls shimmered with countless rays of light and were protected by a formidable defensive array.

Cultivators thronged the skies above the holy city, coming and going in an endless stream. The city's prosperity far surpassed that of the former city at the foot of Qingyun Sect Mountain.

Outside Qingyang Holy City, there are city guards, all of whom are late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Before entering the city, their identities will be checked one by one.
