Chapter 73: Upgrading the Copper Coffin and Refining the Golden Corpse
After half a day, Cao Xiu left the Dharma Transmission Hall and returned to Lingxiu Peak!
Although he had been explained by the elders of the Chuanfa Hall, he still had many things to figure out about the refining method of the external incarnation.
So after returning to his room, he took out the replica jade slip, looked at the method inside again and again, and pondered the difficulties that would be encountered when refining the golden corpse into an external incarnation, so that he could prepare ways to deal with it in advance.
In the following days, he spent most of the time locked in his room, trying to refine the most important step in his incarnation, which was to transform distraction into thoughts.
In fact, it is to separate a part of the soul origin from one's own soul, refine it into an independent individual, and use it as the core to control the external incarnation.
This is not easy.
Because the soul is an extremely important existence to any living being.
Ordinary people have weak souls. If they receive a slight mental shock, they may fall into a coma. In more severe cases, they may not be able to wake up in their lifetime.
Even if monks can strengthen their souls through cultivation, it still depends on their realm!
At least based on Cao Xiu's current cultivation level, his soul is only dozens of times stronger than ordinary acquired-level mortals. If he rashly divides his soul, it will still cause huge damage to him. If he is not careful, he will leave endless damage.
The consequences will affect future cultivation!
This is also the reason why most monks in the cultivation world have never thought about refining an external incarnation. Even if they do, they will wait until they advance to the three realms of heaven and man.
Because after reaching the Purple Mansion Realm, the soul will undergo a transformation and will no longer be irreparable due to ordinary damage.
For those who are strong in the three realms of heaven and man, dividing a part of the soul is equivalent to cutting off a piece of flesh from the body. Even if they do not use various elixirs or secret methods to repair it, they will slowly return to the original state as they practice!
However, Cao Xiu did not worry too much, because there are many miraculous elixirs in the world of spiritual practice. As long as you are prepared in advance, the worst result will not occur.
Among the many elixirs previously collected from the Lin Family Underground Palace, there are two elixirs that are quite useful for the soul!
In addition, he can also use the water of life to promote the growth of soul-nourishing grass.
In fact, he was already doing it. He took out many drops of water of life from the fountain of life and gave it to Bai Lian'er to go to the place where the Yin veins converged to encourage the new seedlings of soul-nurturing grass to grow.
In addition, Daluo Sect also has many elixirs that can repair damaged souls. As a disciple of the sect, he is certainly qualified to redeem them!
Under these arrangements, Cao Xiu didn't think he would fail!
Of course, it's him.
If it were anyone else, even those disciples from aristocratic families would not be able to devote so many resources to maintaining their souls.
Even if the families behind them can afford it, they will not use it to refine their external avatars, because the incarnations require more resources for subsequent growth!
With these resources, they are enough to train more family children.
But Cao Xiu does not have these worries. With the current strength of the Golden Corpse and the strong death energy in the Treasure Map Cave, he does not think that evolving the Golden Corpse to a more powerful level in the future will require him to invest too many resources.
This can be seen just from Bai Lian'er's rapid improvement in strength after entering, and from the fact that she has crossed two realms from the Condensing Yuan Realm and developed magical powers in such a short period of time.
Of course, the higher the realm, the harder it is to advance. In the later stages, it is no longer just about the concentration of power, but about the perception of laws, the understanding of magical powers, and the most fundamental evolution of oneself, which will definitely become more and more difficult.
However, these are still too far away from Cao Xiu, and he does not need to consider promotion for the Golden Corpse so early.
After he had thoroughly figured out the method of turning distraction into thoughts, he began to prepare for various things.
From elixirs to enhance consciousness and repair the soul, to various materials for refining external incarnations, everything is fully prepared, and several extra copies are even prepared just in case.
There is no way, who will let him make a fortune and have enough spiritual stones and merit points for him to squander.
It's just that he is not too willing to use the spirit stones, because the demand for spirit stones in Baotu Cave is too great, and he also wants to condense as much water of life as possible!
As a result, his merit points began to decline rapidly.
One day, a small paper crane flew outside his window.
The paper crane circled around him twice and then landed in front of him.
Cao Xiu opened it and took a look, but it was Elder Hua Ruoxi who told him that the corpse-carrying bronze ring had been successfully refined and asked him to go and take it away sometime.
Of course, Hua Ruoxi said it politely, but Cao Xiu didn't dare to wait until he had time in the future to go.
Otherwise, if you place such a big coffin with Elder Hua, the elder will eventually be displeased over time.
So he immediately stopped practicing, got up and walked out of the room, heading towards the peak.
Hua Ruoxi was still taking care of her carefully cultivated exotic flowers and herbs. When she saw Cao Xiu coming, she didn't care. She asked him to wait for a while and after taking care of the few exotic flowers, she walked out of the garden enclosed by a simple wooden fence.
.
She flipped her slender hand, and a small copper coffin about an inch in length appeared out of thin air.
As the copper coffin fell downward, the size of the coffin also became larger and larger. By the time it hit the ground with a clang, it had returned to its previous size.
"This is?"
"Junior sister Wang was very happy to receive your cold crystal chalcedony, so she also refined your copper coffin. In addition, she also perfected the Xumi formation in it, so the coffin can be changed in size for convenience.
Take it with you!"
"Well……"
Cao Xiu twitched the corners of his mouth.
Why did he carry the coffin with him?
However, this is also a kind intention from the weapon refiner, so he will naturally not refuse.
Besides, after he refines the golden corpse into an external incarnation, it would be nice to have a more comfortable coffin to lie in!
Elder Hua raised his fair and delicate chin and gestured towards the copper coffin: "She has helped you remove the corpse-shaking copper ring and refined it. It is placed on the coffin lid. Do you think you are satisfied with it?"
"yes!"
Cao Xiu went over and picked up the copper ring for holding corpses, and put the true energy in his body into it.
Since he had already used it as a magical weapon for preliminary refinement, even though the bronze ring of corpse manipulation has been upgraded, when his true energy was input into it, it was still not hindered at all. Instead, he felt the power of the restriction within it.
, far more than ten times more mysterious than before.
"good, very good!"
Cao Xiu looked happy.
Because this means that the control power of the copper corpse ring on the golden corpse will also be increased tenfold!
"Thank you, elder."
Cao Xiu thanked Hua Ruoxi.
He knew that if the other party had not come forward, ordinary weapon refiners would not refine it with such care for his little Condensation Realm disciple!
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are satisfied!"
Hua Ruoxi waved her hand: "If there is nothing else, just step back. I still have things to do on my hands!"
"Yes, disciple, resign!"
Cao Xiu quickly put away the copper coffin, said goodbye and left.
Now that the last step is ready, it’s time to start refining the golden corpse!
