Chen Xi is very clear about his own cultivation. Although he has reached the late stage of Jindan in both body and qi cultivation, it is simply impossible to go further before the start of the Star Conference.
This is indeed the case.
When he entered Fire Crow Town, his body refining and qi refining cultivation were only at the early stage of Jindan. It has only been less than half a year since then. Two different cultivation paths have allowed him to continuously improve two levels in a short period of time. In the small realm, this rapid advancement speed is already amazing enough. If you tell me about it, your jaw will definitely drop.
All this is due to the continuous fighting during this period. Fighting is the best teacher. Life and death fights and arduous battles have made Chen Xi's strength reach what it is today. There is no luck in this. This is an achievement that can only be achieved after hard work and hard work.
However, it is not that easy to raise the golden elixir to a perfect state in the later stage, because when cultivation reaches this point, it no longer just depends on hard work, but also on accumulation, perception, and tempering of the state of mind.
Of course, with Chen Xi's current state, there is absolutely no problem in advancing to the Golden Elixir Perfection Realm. However, in order to be more stable when advancing to the Nirvana Realm in the future, he resolutely chose to stay temporarily and planned to further consolidate his strength. Fan.
As we all know, when a monk advances to the Zifu realm, it is equivalent to opening up a Tao foundation. The more solid the Tao foundation, the greater the certainty of advancing to the Jindan realm in the future.
After advancing to the golden elixir realm, the body is equivalent to possessing the roots of heaven and earth, taking root in heaven and earth, and is no longer a swaying duckweed on the "path".
At this time, the stronger the foundation is laid, the greater achievements can be achieved in the future.
Like the skinny old man who fought against Chen Xi before, he had only understood the four minor paths and had already advanced to the Nirvana realm. The foundation he had laid in the Golden Core realm must be weak, so he naturally could not be Chen Xi's opponent.
This is the difference between foundation and heritage.
Almost all monks understand this truth, but there are very few who can endure not to advance and work hard to consolidate their own foundation. The reason is very simple. On the one hand, the qualifications are too mediocre, and on the other hand, the longevity is not enough. If you don't find a way to advance quickly, you will have already turned into a pile of bones and your body will disappear.
This is the helplessness of most monks. On the one hand, they know that if they want to go further on the road of spiritual practice, they must lay a good foundation. However, on the other hand, because of the short lifespan, they have to find some shortcuts, and then Regardless of whether the foundation is strong or not, just advance in a hurry. In this way, life span can be extended by hundreds of years.
The monks who can do both are extremely at least, and only those geniuses from famous sects have such ability. They are young, well-qualified, and have extraordinary understanding. They also have the diligent guidance of their elders and the support of huge resources and foundation. It’s hard to think solidly.
Although Chen Xi comes from a run-down family in a remote town, he is not lacking in qualifications and understanding, and has a lot of resources for cultivation. Naturally, he will not do anything to encourage others at this time. In order to quickly improve his cultivation level, Destroy your future path.
Because of this, Chen Xi focused on improving his strength in other ways, like what he was planning to do now, by further improving the quality of the sword, so as to further exert his own strength.
Wow!
Chen Xi took out a lot of rare and precious materials from the Pagoda of Pagoda, including the blood of the ancient and exotic beast Silver-eyed Crimson Python, the sharp claws of the Purple-Hearted Flying Feather Crane, the green-patterned fire-heart wood that had been heated for five thousand years, the The colorful mysterious marrow liquid in the cave's Yinsha... and more than twenty pieces of various materials.
These materials were obtained by Chen Xi in dangerous places such as the Dark Forest, the Ten Thousand Evil Stone Beach, and the Ice Demon Cave. They are all extremely valuable. If placed on the outside market, they would definitely be priceless and expensive. Can't buy it.
Even the value of each piece of material is enough to be replaced by a top-grade magic weapon.
Now, Chen Xi decided to refine all these twenty kinds of materials and use them to improve the quality of the sword. If other monks knew this, they would be scolded to death.
The reason is very simple. If the quality of the sword is further improved, it will only be equivalent to the power of a heaven-level magic weapon. The family with these materials is enough to buy several heaven-level magic weapons.
However, Chen Xi didn't care. There was almost no room for other magic weapons to grow, and with his current cultivation level, he couldn't use heaven-level magic weapons.
The sword is different. It is a talisman weapon. It not only has unlimited room for growth, but its grade is not limited by the monk's cultivation level. After the quality is improved, it is equivalent to a heaven-level magic weapon, but it can be used by oneself. This alone is enough to instantly kill all other magic weapons. This is the fundamental reason why Chen Xi is willing to spend a lot of money.
In fact, if you want to improve the quality of the sword, there is a more convenient way, which is to refine it with five divine objects: Qingyi Divine Wood, Taichong Gold, Binghuo Divine Crystal, Renkui Xuanshui, and Chaos Breathing Soil. The effect of making sword urns is countless times higher than these materials.
But Chen Xi did not intend to do this. According to Ji Yu, these five divine objects were bred from the innate origin of the five elements and could produce immeasurable five elements essence. Moreover, when these five divine objects are used as swords and urns to advance to the level of immortal weapons, they can open up a large world, and the weapon spirits they generate will also be extremely powerful, and they can also rank among the top ranks among the immortal weapons.
Just to improve the quality of the sword and use these divine objects to refine it is obviously a waste of natural resources. No one else would do this.
boom!
The sword flew across the sky, and a red cauldron suddenly flew out from the surface of the sword. The whole body was surrounded by flames, and runes appeared, bringing with it a surging momentum that melted all things.
This furnace cauldron is called "Lihuo Fenxu Cauldron". It is composed of thousands of fire runes. It comes from the Red Emperor Fire Emperor's sacred vessel. It is not a real furnace cauldron, but its effect is better than the real furnace cauldron. The tripod is better, it is specially used to smelt and improve the materials of swords and urns.
Chen Xi once carefully studied the five divine urns in the sword urn, and found that each divine urn was like an inexhaustible treasure house with many uses, such as being used to refine various treasure talismans. For example, the "Lihuo Fenxu Cauldron" condensed in front of you, etc., can be said to have endless magical uses and cover a wide range of things.
The furnace cauldron soars into the sky, the firelight circulates, and the talisman patterns are like clouds, spreading the brilliance.
With a stroke of his finger, Chen Xi activated the "White Flame Spiritual Fire" in front of him, and slowly poured it into the "Lihuo Fenxu Cauldron". The entire cauldron suddenly buzzed endlessly, and the talisman flames were surging, and they were about to fly.
Chen Xi did not dare to neglect, grabbed various materials on the ground, and threw them into the furnace cauldron one by one.
Tsk!
As soon as the pieces of material entered the furnace, they were wrapped in endless flames, melted bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye, and turned into drops of liquid essence, stirring endlessly in the furnace.
After doing all this, Chen Xi moved his fingers as fast as light and shadow, and mysterious spells flew out like layers of tides.
Boom!
There was a burst of thunder from the Lihuo Fenxu Cauldron, and the harsh and domineering fire light flowed through the air, making a crackling sonic boom sound.
This is smelting materials. The quality of the heat and the subtlety of the crafting techniques will all affect the quality of the materials. Chen Xi's hands and fingers did not neglect at all, changing and flying at an unparalleled speed, and hundreds of magic formulas poured into the cauldron.
Waves of fire surged, thunder rolled, and the melted essences of many materials began to merge with each other. The sound produced was sharp and harsh, and it was definitely not pleasant to hear.
Chen Xi turned a deaf ear to this. He kept his eyes unblinking and observed the changes inside the furnace with all his heart, not daring to relax at all.
He knew that if there was even the slightest mistake, all the materials would be destroyed. As a result, he didn't know how long it would take to improve the quality of the sword.
This process lasted several days.
On this day, a group of monks with solemn expressions came into the hall of Araki Castle. They were the caravan from Leicheng Tianbao Tower. They came to Arrakawa Castle to purchase various materials.
The monks who were making a living near Huangmu Castle were all queuing up in a long line, planning to sell the materials they had obtained in the past few days.
This caravan from Tianbao Tower in Leicheng was led by a handsome middle-aged man in brocade robes named Yan Cheng. His cultivation level was in the late Jindan period and his strength was not very high. However, he had another identity. The great treasure appraiser, coupled with his good sociability and proficiency in buying and selling, naturally became the leader of this team of sixty people.
At this time, Yan Chengzheng was sitting aside, observing the progress of the transaction. As a great treasure appraiser, he no longer had to do everything personally. He would only come forward in person unless he encountered a rare treasure.
Next to him, there stood a tall and well-proportioned woman, with skin that rivaled the frost and snow, and a cold and beautiful face. She was like a snow lotus blooming on the top of an iceberg, cold and aloof, and inviolable. This is his daughter Yan Yan, whose cultivation level is higher than his. She also followed from Leicheng because she was worried about his safety.
"You don't have to say it anymore, our caravan doesn't take outsiders."
"I can pay a certain fee, and you can rest assured that we will never cause trouble on the way, let alone disturb the order of the caravan."
"I said, no!"
Hearing the argument, Yan Cheng raised his head, looked at his daughter, and then at the young woman with burgundy curly hair next to his daughter. He couldn't help but shook his head and stopped: "That's all, it's still a million miles away from Leicheng. The road is dangerous, so I just took her on the road."
Yan Yan frowned: "Father, what if she..."
Yan Cheng interrupted with a wave of his hand: "Let's do it."
Yan Yan frowned more and more. She was silent for a long time before she raised her head and looked directly at the young woman in front of her. She warned coldly: "You'd better not have any other thoughts, otherwise I may kill you at any time!"
