The Great Wild God - Chapter 137
Chapter 137 Peak True Yang Realm
Currently, Chen Xun’s physical strength was already at an unprecedented peak in Cang Lan. Even a mid-to late-embryonic realm expert couldn’t compare to him in terms of pure physical strength and strength.
At this moment, even if he were to fight the Twin-Headed Vulture head on with his bare hands, he might not be at a disadvantage. This also meant that he was not powerless against Lou Shiyi.
Whether it was what Daoist Greenwood said about the perfection of his physical body or what Su Lingyin said about becoming a saint of his physical body, Chen Xun was filled with anticipation.
However, Su Fang Long told him in the Academy camp that although there were many spirit medicines that could increase one’s potential, there were still some restrictions.
He had consumed the Dove Roc Egg, and his physical potential had increased by nearly 50%. However, in the future, even if he consumed a spiritual medicine that was only slightly inferior to the Dove Roc Egg, it would be useless.
Hearing Su Fanglong’s words, Chen Xun immediately poured a basin of cold water into his heart.
He still had a Demonic Toad Liquid Pill in his hand. However, the Demonic Toad was extremely low-ranked amongst desolate beasts. Even if it gathered into a liquid pill, this liquid pill might not be purer than the Cooer Roc’s egg.
It was practically impossible for him to consume the Demonic Toad Liquid Pill and increase his physical potential again.
Su Fanglong was unlikely to lie to him. If the path of becoming a saint was easy, wouldn’t the disciples of sects and aristocratic clans with countless resources become saints long ago?
Furthermore, when Zong Ya and the others consumed the Nine Orifices Nourishing Essence Pill, the growth of their divine soul potential was seriously limited.
However, Chen Xun’s experience at the moment he consumed the Dove Roc Egg allowed him to know that as long as the medicinal power of the spirit medicine was strong enough, or the way the medicinal power triggered the changes in his soul sea was ingenious enough, it was still possible for him to directly break through the profound aperture and advance into the Reincarnation Realm.
Back then, Su Tang had obtained a Nine Leaves Ganoderma Combination Medicine to refine the Nine Revolutions Gold Pill, which was why she had advanced into the Reincarnation Realm in one fell swoop.
The refining method of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill was a secret that the Azure Water School did not pass down, but the dozen spirit herbs that could be used to refine pills were all publicly available.
As long as rogue cultivators could gather all the spirit medicines needed to refine pills, they could hand them over to the Azure Water College to be refined in exchange for a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.
Even if the Azure Water School wanted to gather the spirit medicines to refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, it would still be extremely difficult. The reason why the Azure Water School announced the medicinal herbs was because it hoped to gather the power of the world’s wandering cultivators and gather all the spirit medicines to refine the pills.
The Toad Pill could be said to be one of the most crucial spirit medicines, as was the Stone Snake Lotus on the Jade Pillar Peak.
Chen Xun would not be foolish enough to hand over a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill to the College, but he could wait for Su Tang to leave seclusion and ask her to refine it. This was also the greatest hope for him to advance into the Reincarnation Realm.
Therefore, let alone the ancient stone hall hidden beneath the Lonely Cliff Stone Pillar, Chen Xun would definitely not abandon the Jade Pillar Peak for the sake of the Stone Snake Lotus on the Lonely Cliff Stone Pillar.
At this moment, those who had advanced into Jade Pillar Peak to exterminate the Blue Wolf still thought that the disciples of the two sects were the main force, but experts above the Reincarnation Realm of the two sects had already gathered on both sides of Jade Pillar Peak.
Thinking of stealing a chicken from a dog in front of the experts of the two sects and seizing a chance, Chen Xun knew that his current strength was far too weak.
At the same time, although Ghost Faction was taboo about Su Tang, he had suffered a great loss in his hands several times, and his tolerance towards him had reached its limit.
If the conflict between him and the Gui Xi Tribe intensified, the Gui Xi Tribe would most likely destroy him at all costs.
He had to guarantee that even if Lou Li attacked, he would still have the ability to escape.
Chen Xun thought for a long time, then invited Gu Jianfeng, Zong Ya, Tie Xintong, and Tie Xinmei to the edge of the deep pond. “This deep pond is hidden in the depths of the valley. It’s quite suitable for cultivation. I want to stay here for two more days …” he said.
Gu Jianfeng and Zong Ya knew that Chen Xun wanted to make a breakthrough and said, “We will stay here to protect you.”
Chen Xun shook his head. He might not even stay here to cultivate in the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit. He also had Gu Jianfeng, Zong Ya, and the others take Ah Qing away.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Gu Jianfeng, Tie Xintong, and the others, but at this moment, there were more than 40 rogue cultivators who were still working with them. If these 40 people knew about this place, then they might not all be reliable.
Tie Xintong understood Chen Xun’s thoughts and said, “A large number of green wolves have been compressed within two hundred kilometers of Jade Pillar Peak, and the number of camels, sheep, white-tailed cattle and other beasts in this area has been greatly reduced. This means that the food of the green wolves is starting to become problematic.” I’m worried that Azure Wolf will soon have a large-scale counterattack. “It’s just that some people are still unwilling to withdraw to the Academy camp …”
“Azure Wolf’s intelligence isn’t weaker than humans. Returning to the Academy’s camp is not safe,” Chen Xun said. “I suggest that everyone meet up with the Academy’s disciples. After I cultivate for a few days, I’ll meet up with you …”
Over the past month or so, the disciples of the two sects had gathered together thousands of rogue cultivators and advanced smoothly in the direction of Jade Pillar Peak. However, Chen Xun had received news that less than 20,000 green wolves had been exterminated in a month or so, and that they had yet to injure the foundations of the pack of wolves.
Not only did the wolf pack not show any signs of counterattacking and breaking out of the encirclement, they even retreated in the direction of Jade Pillar Peak.
Chen Xun had an extremely deep impression of that divine wolf. If that divine wolf could control the entire pack of wolves, things would not be as simple as he imagined.
This was also one of the reasons why he was determined to break through in seclusion.
*************************
After Tie Xintong, Gu Jianfeng, and the others left, Chen Xun immediately dived into the deep pond, grabbed the two young pythons, put them into a bamboo basket, and rushed to the Frost Pond Swamp.
The Frost Lake Swamp had already been emptied. Although the spiritual acupoints below the Frost Lake Swamp were the most valuable items, the attention of both sects was focused on the Jade Pillar Peak. Only after the matter with the Jade Pillar Peak would they have the energy to occupy this Frost Lake.
Therefore, the current Frost Lake was the safest place.
Chen Xun sneaked back to the Frost Lake Swamp and observed it for a day. He saw that there were only three or five loose cultivators hunting for the peculiar toad in the nearby forest, but there was nothing else.
Chen Xun ignored the few rogue cultivators who were much weaker than him and took advantage of the night to sneak into the cold pond with the two young pythons.
The cold pond was close to the stone ground. It was more than two hundred meters deep, revealing a huge stone pillar beneath the water.
Threads of profound cold energy leaked out of the orifice, and it was even purer than when the once-a-decade cold wave struck.
Chen Xun’s body had been reconstructed by the Profound Frost Spirit Qi. If it was someone else, even if his Qi and blood were as strong as Tie Xintong’s, it would still be difficult to last for a cup of tea to sneak into the Frost Lake.
These orifices were the size of roe deer, but the two young pythons were only arm-thick and slightly thinner than the orifices.
As Chen Xun had guessed, the two young pythons were indeed Profound Frost-attributed spiritual items. After they were placed in the Frost Lake, they didn’t feel any discomfort at all. Instead, they came over to bite Chen Xun.
Chen Xunguan thought of the Nine Nether Barbarian Soul and revealed a fierce aura. The two young pythons escaped in horror and drilled into the aperture of the spiritual acupoint, no longer coming out.
Chen Xun thought to himself, If the Profound Frost Sect took over this spiritual acupoint, would it subdue these two young pythons, or would it be killed by these two young pythons, and would it be helpless to use these two young pythons?
Thinking of this, Chen Xun couldn’t help but laugh evilly.
Releasing the young python to the Frost Lake was a simple task, but the most important thing was that Chen Xun still wanted to borrow the profound cold energy in the depths of the Frost Lake to test whether his physical body still had the potential to further temper and strengthen.
Chen Xun took out the Spirit Gathering Formation and injected a bit of spiritual sense into it. The extremely cold profound energy quickly formed an extremely dense vortex of spiritual energy on the formation disk. The surrounding pools were filled with extremely dense profound cold energy, and they were all azure in color.
Chen Xun’s five internal organs and six internal organs weren’t much weaker than his skin and flesh after being tempered. At this moment, he was no longer afraid of the erosion of the Profound Cold Qi. Instead, he could allow the Profound Cold Spiritual Qi to be immersed into him for further tempering.
Chen Xun sat in the vortex of Spiritual Qi. After consuming the two Dragon Elephant Pills, he completely released himself, allowing the profound cold Spiritual Qi to soak into his flesh, muscles, bones, and organs …
The hundred-meter-long cold pond quickly regained its calm, with only a faint turbulence in the water.
Two days later, Chen Xun felt that his internal organs had been further strengthened, but the refinement of his muscles, bones, skin, and flesh had made little progress.
He knew that after consuming the Pigeon Egg, his physical potential had increased by nearly 50%. Even if the Profound Cold Spirit Qi in this spiritual acupoint doubled, it would still be very difficult for his physical body to be further tempered.
In another two days, when the tempering of his internal organs gradually slowed down, Chen Xun knew that it was time for him to start cleansing his marrow.
At this moment, Chen Xun’s Qi and blood were almost pure to the extreme, and he could advance to the eighth level of Marrow Cleansing at any time.
Qi and blood were pure, and it solved the problem of explosive power, which was the key to his divine power.
Only by cultivating his Qi and Blood to double their boundlessness would he be able to increase his endurance.
At this moment, he was using the Cloud Evasion Technique in conjunction with the Shadow Separation Technique. With a single thought of Shadow Separation, a single thought of Cloud Evasion, and a single breath of air, he could reach a distance of thirty to fifty meters. However, he could only use it three times in a row, and his qi and blood would be exhausted.
Although consuming pills could replenish one’s qi and blood, when fighting against enemies, one would sometimes be unable to free one’s hands to consume pills.
The best way to cultivate Qi and blood to a more majestic level was to advance to the eighth level of Marrow Cleansing.
Blood was born from the marrow. Only by cutting down the hair and washing the marrow would one’s qi and blood become even more majestic.
Chen Xun’s Qi and blood were perfectly perfected, and he was able to transport Qi and blood and temper his internal organs. There was no need for him to stay at the ninth level of the True Yang Realm for a long time to nourish his internal organs.
Therefore, to Chen Xun, advancing to the eighth level of Marrow Cleansing was the peak of the True Yang Realm.
**********************
Over the past two years, the Spiritual Energy he cultivated had stopped above his soul sea like a moving fish.
Chen Xun wasn’t willing to use spiritual energy when fighting against the demonic toad. It was extremely difficult for him to cultivate spiritual energy at the True Yang Realm. For the past two years, he had only been willing to use spiritual energy to temper his fleshly body.
Grandpa Zongtu, Daoist Greenwood, Tie Xintong, and the others all had experience in cutting hair and cleansing marrow, and they all told Chen Xun their cultivation insights.
Therefore, this step was not difficult for Chen Xun.
Chen Xunji fell silent as he recited the Dragon Binding Technique, causing the profound bell’s Fan Yin to spread out into several strands of spiritual energy and lead it to the Hundred Bones.
As the muscles, bones, skin, and flesh had already been tempered to the extreme, even if they seeped into the Spiritual Energy, they wouldn’t be able to increase it by a single point. Several wisps of Spiritual Energy seemed to be the clearest of fine streams of water, slowly seeping into the depths of the bones to refine the bone marrow …
It was as if time had stopped. Chen Xun could not feel the passage of time outside the cold lake. When he had exhausted all of his Origin Spirit Energy and had only a tiny drop of Spirit Light left, Chen Xun stopped to think and withdrew the remaining Spirit Energy to his soul sea.
If he didn’t preserve the source fire seed of this millet of Spiritual Energy, it would be extremely troublesome for him to spend all his effort to cultivate again in the future.
Chen Xun opened his eyes. The aura in his body was unprecedentedly long. He let out a breath and blew the silent pond water. Very quickly, it formed a huge vortex around Chen Xun.
Chen Xun only used his inner Qi to blow the pond water for an incense stick of time before his Qi and blood showed signs of drying up.
