Chapter 589: Looking forward to the road to becoming a god
"The material used by Jiao Xiuyuan to make the clone comes from Ruomu?"
With a move in his heart, Li Fan held the dead branch of Ruomu in his hand and thought about it carefully.
After a long time, he thought thoughtfully and shook his head slightly.
"Similar but different, they seem to have the same origin, but there are obvious differences."
"And with Taoist Kuchiki's temperament of hating monks so much, it is unlikely that he would make a deal with Jiao Xiuyuan."
"So this is..."
In front of Li Fan's eyes, the scene of Ruo Mu being besieged by monks suddenly flashed again, with the tree trunk cracking and many branches falling from the sky.
"Perhaps, after these separated branches fell into the Xuanhuang Realm, they had a new destiny."
The vitality of plants is always unexpectedly tenacious. In ordinary plants, broken branches often regenerate.
Not to mention [Ruomu], a strange existence that can give birth to the fruit of immortality.
"However, it is difficult to judge whether Jiao Xiuyuan really transformed from a fallen branch from Ruomu, or just found the broken branches from the past and used them as materials for refining the clone."
As Li Fan thought, new shoots suddenly sprouted from the dead branches in his hands.
In an instant, the new shoots grow into tender new branches.
A small golden round object hung on the branch as if it were bearing fruit.
Li Fan's eyes twitched.
This "golden fruit" was naturally the golden elixir Taoist Kuchiki promised to give him as a gift.
It's just that this storage method is quite strange.
Li Fan stretched out his hand to take off the golden elixir.
A slight resistance came from the "fruit".
Li Fan applied force again and the golden elixir was successfully removed.
Due to the reaction, the new branches were violently thrown back, and then kept swaying in the air.
However, it didn't last long before it retracted into the dead branches of Ruomu with a whoosh.
Before Li Fan could think about it, it came out again with another golden elixir.
Li Fan looked at the dead branches in front of him, which looked like living things, and felt a little solemn in his heart.
He didn't act rashly, just like picking a fruit, one by one, he kept picking off all the golden elixirs it produced.
It took nearly a stick of incense.
A total of three hundred and seventy-two pieces.
When all the golden elixirs were handed over, Ruomu Dead Branch also completed its mission.
Turned into inches of flying ash, drifting away without a trace in the wind.
In the process of "picking fruits" just now, Li Fan seemed to have collected the golden elixirs in the storage ring, but in fact he had quietly started to absorb them using [Huan Zhen].
It's the same as the previous guess. The single-method golden elixir only increases the anchor charging progress by 0.25%.
For dual method golden elixir, it is 0.5%.
However, the Three Methods Golden Pill has made a qualitative leap. One pill can increase the progress by 2%.
However, among these more than 300 golden elixirs, the three methods are only a minority.
Most of them are single or double methods.
And there is none of the four methods and above.
So when Li Fan completed unlocking the fifth anchor point, only sixteen specially selected golden elixirs remained.
However, Li Fan did not choose based on the amount of golden elixir condensation method.
Instead, the judgment is made based on the rarity of the golden elixir method.
Some ordinary Five Elements methods are not as subtle as Li Fan's own understanding, so there is no need to preserve them.
Some of them involve areas that Li Fan currently knows little about, and are very valuable to Li Fan who is new to Nascent Soul.
The entire Nascent Soul realm is the process of cultivating and perfecting one's own cave-heaven realm.
The more complete the Cave Heaven Law Domain is, the stronger the combat effectiveness displayed by the Yuanying monks will be.
When it can be achieved and is almost consistent with the external Xuanhuang Realm environment, you can look forward to the Divine Transformation Realm.
Li Fan is still not clear about the specific details.
However, I have a vague idea of the general process.
It is said to extract "the marrow of heaven and earth to obtain its spirit".
The marrow of heaven, as the name suggests, has roughly the same effect as human marrow.
The most important thing about human marrow is its hematopoietic function.
The marrow of heaven is the law of creation.
The laws of heaven and earth, just like the blood of the human body, are the cornerstone for maintaining the stable existence of the world.
If man has no blood, he will die, and if heaven cannot do it, he will perish.
By disguising one's cave heaven as the real environment of the Xuanhuang Realm, one deceives the instinctive law-giving behavior of the Marrow of Heaven, thereby taking as one's own every trace of the laws that should originally appear in the world.
Of course, just like human marrow, in addition to its hematopoietic function, it also undertakes immunity and defense mechanisms.
The Marrow of Heaven also has certain counter-attack capabilities.
Therefore, in the process of [extracting the marrow of heaven], you need to always be careful about the backlash of heaven and earth.
Often you can only extract one kind of law at a time, and you can't be greedy, you need to measure it.
If we talk about sacrificing the soul of heaven and earth, it means that after we have enough strength, we can take the law as our own in a fair and just manner.
Then extracting the Heavenly Essence is a sneaky way of stealing the law when the strength is still weak.
By strengthening oneself and weakening the other party, narrow the gap between the two parties.
This will make adequate preparations for the future integration process.
Li Fan now stood at the Nascent Soul Realm and rehearsed the process of [Drawing Heavenly Essence] in his mind. As expected, he had a different and more profound understanding than when he was at the Golden Core Realm.
"Preaching the Dharma is truly a gift from heaven."
"Starting from pretending to be the wonder of heaven and earth, and seeing the method of heaven and earth, step by step, a mortal who cannot practice becomes able to be accommodated in the entire practice system of heaven and earth."
"Then by seizing the essence of heaven and earth, extracting the marrow of heaven and earth, we can narrow the gap between heaven and earth and ourselves."
"Sacrifice the soul of heaven and earth, and master the power of arm wrestling with heaven and earth."
"In the end, it goes against the laws of heaven and earth, takes its place, and achieves eternal life."
"Step by step, with a clear purpose..."
"It's really impossible to defend against. No wonder, with the power of heaven and earth, we were completely defeated in front of the new monks. We had to fight back."
Li Fan sighed again.
Looking back at the steps of practice again, Li Fan's heart suddenly moved, and he realized that this process seemed very similar to something in his memory.
However, when he wanted to think about it carefully again, the inspiration that finally appeared in his mind suddenly disappeared.
Even if I use the Hua Dao Stone, I can't recall it.
A feeling of loss could not help but surge into Li Fan's heart.
"strangeness……"
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought for a moment.
He was almost certain that the sudden enlightenment he had just had would not have disappeared so quickly under normal circumstances.
It must have been influenced by some kind of force, which caused that glimmer of inspiration to suddenly pass away.
"Just like what I experienced in Senior Sister Zhao's fantasy world."
"I was imprisoned in a secret room. Once I wanted to practice cultivation, the walls of the secret room would deliberately make noises and sarcastic sounds, trying to prevent me from entering cultivation and recovering."
"And this kind of shackles in the Xuanhuang Realm is even more silent and unknown to others."
"Dharma-transmitting Heavenly Lord, is it you..."
Li Fan suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky, his expression inexplicable.
