Chapter 309: The fire in the heart enters the body
After countless generations of inheritance, the secret method of the Wildfire Ministry has been considered very perfect.
In addition, he had previously collected and studied the spiritual arts of the Mulan people, so he had a foundation.
It is not difficult to communicate and refine the method through targeted deduction. With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, Xie Duanyang knew that it could be completed in no more than seven days.
Allowing the Taixu Mirror to absorb his own mana and consciousness as fuel, he condensed his consciousness and continued to look inside the lotus lantern.
The energy in the relics has its limit and cannot be consumed endlessly. Therefore, when suppressing the remnant spirit of the totem, the glazed light lamp mainly acts as a primer.
What is actually used is the essence of firepower in the earth fire lotus petals.
When this object was used to detonate underground fire, part of it had already leaked out, and now, its power is less than 23/10 of its previous power.
The originally green lotus petals could not help but appear somewhat illusory and gloomy.
However, seeing this scene, Xie Duanyang, instead of being disappointed, showed joy.
If it is an intact lotus petal, he can only be 100% sure of refining it after breaking through the pill formation.
But now, you can give it a try.
Countless verses flow through my mind. Xie Duanyang holds a lamp in his left hand and performs magic with his right hand to evoke the meaning of the law.
In response to this object, the Divine Weapon Sect has long ago created a complete set of techniques to refine it for its own use.
This is also part of his confidence in using the Taixu Mirror to deduce the secret techniques of the Wild Fire Department. The two have something in common.
The earth fire lotus petals are a natural wonder, and their energy flows and circulates without leaking out. However, since it was used by Xie Duanyang to detonate it, its firepower has been lost bit by bit.
If there is no change, it will completely dry up and dissipate in less than two years.
This creature is naturally spiritual and is afraid of life and death, so it senses that its body is filled with fire and does not resist it, but actively opens it up for it to invade itself.
Just like water and milk blending together, there is no distinction between each other.
The lotus petals received help, and their depletion speed was greatly alleviated, and the aura became stronger and stronger again.
As for the magic power in Xie Duanyang's body, there are also some changes after being immersed in the charm of his magic.
It's just that he himself knows that his cultivation has reached a peak and there is no way forward, so he has not broken through the bottleneck.
Instead, it slowly changes the nature of the mana, making it more condensed and pure.
"It seems that before the third transformation is completely completed, the magic power can be completely transformed..."
Feeling the changes in his body, Xie Duanyang's hand movements became slower and slower.
It would be bad if you urge it too hastily and ignite your inner fire, forcing you to retreat and take elixirs.
He is not fully prepared yet and is 60% to 70% sure that he will not succeed.
If that's all it is, just think of it as accumulating experience for the future.
It's just not as good as the "Qingyuan Sword Art" practiced by Han Li, so even if it fails, it won't have much impact.
Fire spells are known for their tyranny, and the "Metal Metal Technique" is especially lethal. If you fail to break through, you will inevitably be injured.
Of course, the more important thing is that we are now on someone else's territory.
It is adjacent to the Wild Fire Department and the Tianshui Department. If there is a change in the celestial energy, it will cause unnecessary trouble.
The seven days passed as scheduled.
Looking slightly tired, Xie Duanyang stopped all movements and took a breath.
The lotus petals shine brightly and turn into a vigorous flame, which is more than a foot high and even breaks through the confinement of the glass lamp.
And its body quickly turned into ashes and turned into nothingness.
The green flames gathered into a stream of flames, slowly entering Xie Duanyang's mouth and being swallowed into his belly.
After being refined by him for these days, the true fire has already been completely connected with his own aura. It did not explode after entering the body, but was completely integrated into the mana.
It's just that Xie Duanyang didn't feel comfortable either. He felt endless amounts of true fire energy coming over him, burning his meridians, flesh and blood.
It wants to ignite everything, but it seems like its body is about to expand and explode.
When other people encounter this kind of situation, except for taking risks and forming elixirs, they can no longer drain away this powerful mana.
Fortunately, he has a strong will and strong consciousness, and he has already anticipated this.
Even if he encounters great changes, he still maintains a clear mind and calmly carries out the "Three Transformations of Chongyuan Gong".
Before hitting the pill-forming bottleneck, guide and disperse the strong mana, turning it into pure vitality to feed back to the physical body.
With his previous experience, he was particularly skillful in operating it this time, without any surprises.
Just because it involves the power of true fire, it took a full moon to completely reduce it to the level of foundation building.
Then, he did not leave seclusion immediately, but went into seclusion on the spot to rebuild.
That lotus petal contains the true fire of elixir formation level, but it can be completely dissipated so easily.
There is still a lot of pure vitality deposited deep in the meridians and body, and with a little thought, it is induced by Xie Duanyang and transformed into magic power.
Even though no pills were used, it still only took more than two months to easily reach the peak of the initial stage, and then the remaining spiritual power was exhausted.
And Xie Duanyang has a feeling that the bottlenecks in the mid-stage foundation building and later stages will not exist for him at all. As long as he accumulates enough mana, he can easily break through.
It is invisible to the naked eye, but if you look inside yourself, you can find a cluster of clear green fire entrenched in the ventricle of the heart.
Using the ventricles as the furnace, using Qi and blood as fuel, the mana is constantly being tempered.
Not only is it beneficial to practice, but it also gives you a feeling of divine help when refining elixirs, refining weapons, and even casting spells to fight.
Xie Duanyang casually popped up a cluster of blue flames, which was not even the simplest "fireball technique".
But he knows very well that even if a high-grade magic weapon that specializes in protection is faced with it, it will probably be damaged and the restrictions within it will be wiped out.
And...
Putting away the flames, Xie Duanyang used his magic power to activate the "gold-melting and iron-melting hand".
But seeing the nine talismans changing in the air, with an artistic conception of molten gold and pinned iron, they even had the potential to break through the "Inverted Five Elements Formation" he had arranged outside.
After refining the true fire, the power of this magical power was completely transformed, becoming the most powerful means at his disposal besides the immortal-killing flying knife.
"Next, it's time to deal with this thing..."
After practicing the nine seals one by one, Xie Duanyang exhaled the turbid air, put away the magical power with satisfaction, and looked at the glazed light lamp again.
The remnant spirit of the totem was restrained in the relic wick and removed from the lotus petals. This time, it was much purer inside.
In the process of refining the true fire, he had another enlightenment and perfected the method of Taixu Mirror deduction again.
However, Xie Duanyang has no plan to strike while the iron is hot and refine it into himself.
After all, this object is the root totem of the Wild Fire Department. Any leakage of breath during refining may cause the main body in the Wild Fire Department to react.
He acts cautiously and naturally would not take such risks.
Once the refining method was completed, Xie Duanyang no longer felt no nostalgia. He put away the formation equipment, released the black tiger, and rode away on his back.
Although it is not difficult to disguise himself as Master Mulan and sneak into the Tianshui Department, without the identity of the Bee Sting Organization, it is not that easy to buy the spiritual water he likes.
On the contrary, it may cause unnecessary trouble because of revealing one's wealth.
As far as he knows, just like the bee sting trade, people from the Tianshui tribe will take out the spiritual springs in the tribe from time to time to exchange their needs with other tribes.
As long as you choose the right target, you may not be unable to exchange for this item.
Even if you don’t get it, it’s nothing if you miss it.
After all, Dajin, which is his destination, is the real holy land for spiritual practice in the human world, with endless resources for magical arts.
With his wealth and skills, he won't have to worry about not being able to get the best elixir-forming spiritual objects when he gets there.
As long as Xie Duanyang practiced in seclusion, Black Tiger was suffocated and could only spin around in the space.
At this moment, I felt suddenly free, and my joy was self-evident.
I saw it looking up to the sky and roaring loudly, its four claws not touching the ground, and it was flying in the demonic wind.
Although the escape speed is far less than that of the Golden-backed Mantis, it is already extremely fast.
It has been practicing with Xie Duanyang in the past few months. Although it is a little depressed, its cultivation has also made further progress, surpassing the previous one.
Xie Duanyang entered the map into the Black Tiger Sea of Consciousness, chose a direction, and ordered to avoid those tribes with Nascent Soul level masters and ignore them.
I just sat on the tiger's back and meditated on the many spiritual techniques in Tafei's storage bag, and occasionally looked at the surrounding scenery.
At this time, it had been quite a while since he escaped from the Wildfire Department. It was already the middle of winter and the scenery had changed drastically.
But I saw the north wind whistling, snowflakes fluttering, the sky and the earth were vast, covered in silver.
In such bad weather, not only the mortals of Mulan stayed in the tribe.
Even the presence of monsters and magicians is very rare. Xie Duanyang can let go of the black tiger and run wildly.
It only took half a day to cover a thousand miles.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he restrained the panting black tiger to slow down and prepare to find a resting place.
Anyone who dares to wander around in the snowfield after dark must be a troublesome creature. Even if he thinks he is smart, he does not want to confront him and waste his strength in vain.
"Well, three hundred miles further in this direction, there is a valley occupied by small tribes..."
The Bee Sting Organization's trade route ends at the Tianshui Department, so there is no map here.
It’s just that the Wild Fire Department has some origins after all. Xie Duanyang dug out a map in Tafei’s storage bag, which came from the original Sky Fire Department.
It covers almost half of the grassland, but the Murans conquered fiercely and the forces changed frequently. The name of the tribe and the sphere of influence have changed a lot from those on the old map.
Of course, although the valley is not big, it hides wind and water, has fertile water and grass, and has dozens of low- to mid-level elixirs growing naturally, so it is of great value.
No matter which family took it away, they would not ignore it and let it be abandoned. Xie Duanyang chose this place almost immediately.
The distance of three hundred miles was only an hour's journey for Black Tiger, and he finally reached the valley before it got dark.
Because of the special terrain, other places are covered with snow, but there is still a bit of greenery here, which refreshes him who is used to the monotonous scenery.
Xie Duanyang's spiritual consciousness just scanned it and he was sure that the valley was completely covered by an unknown formation and restrictions.
Although it is not as subtle as the "Inverted Five Elements Formation", it is large in scope, not inferior to the formation that covers the entire Wildfire City.
Instead of entering rashly, he looked at two more cups of tea, and patrolled the ancient times with his spiritual consciousness. After confirming that there was no threat to his own means, he moved forward boldly.
Then, as expected, the formation changed. As soon as Xie Duanyang stepped ten feet away from the mouth of the valley, he saw the mist gathering.
Then there were two loud shouts at the same time.
"Who is it?!"
Looking at the two men running towards each other with long steel-splashed knives, Xie Duanyang stopped in time, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
After all, this valley is limited. Unlike the Wildfire Ministry, which can support masters with alchemy levels, the Foundation Establishment Master is already top-notch.
They are not so extravagant as to use magicians to guard the door. They are just two mortals with some martial arts skills and strong muscles and bones.
Xie Duanyang is also a person who has honed his martial arts to perfection, and he looks weird at a glance.
The population of Mulan is not inferior to that of Tiannan, but because it is a grassland tribe, its customs and culture are very different.
Because the tribes are constantly attacking each other, there is no such thing as rivers and lakes.
The martial arts derived from it are also based on battle formations, simple and straightforward, with few bells and whistles.
In contrast, the martial arts of Tiannan martial arts practitioners are much more subtle and varied.
Just from the jumping technique of the two of them, Xie Duanyang can see the shadow of Tiannan martial arts, which is very different from Mulan martial arts.
Moreover, their facial features, as well as the shape of their clothes, vaguely share the origins of Tiannan people.
"Could it be that this tribe is still a descendant of Tiannan Miao?"
Xie Duanyang thought to himself and did not speak, but the black tiger under his crotch roared angrily.
How could two mortals with some martial arts endure this? They felt thunder exploding in their minds and staggered to the ground.
Not daring to get up, I prostrate myself on the spot.
"I have seen the Immortal Master, but I wonder what the importance of the Immortal Master's presence in our department is?"
A soft but tough magic power passed over, causing the two of them to return to their standing posture, and Xie Duanyang spoke slowly.
"I am from the Wild Fire Department. I was traveling here and wanted to rest in your department for a night and buy some elixirs.
You can report it to your Dharma Master..."
He said this, but in fact his mind was somewhere behind the fog, and there was a magician lurking inside.
Xie Duanyang's words were actually meant for the other party to listen to.
The two warriors didn't know why, but seeing that Xie Duanyang didn't restrain themselves, they finally breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly bowed before turning around and running away.
Soon, the fog dispersed, and a big man in green robe appeared at the mouth of the valley controlling a flying fork.
Xiuwei and Xie Duanyang are like the peak of the early stage of foundation building.
"It turned out to be a senior fellow from the Wild Fire Department. I heard that the Guibu Pagoda was a Taoist friend who was gifted by nature and had reached the peak of foundation building a few years ago..."
The big man quietly released his spiritual consciousness and scanned Xie Duanyang's body a few times. A smile appeared on his face, and he seemed to feel that he was inferior to him.
After all, where is the strength of the Wild Fire Department? There is a real alchemy master sitting in charge, who is far more powerful than their tribe.
"Elder Tafei successfully formed the elixir a few months ago, but he was temporarily in retreat because he wanted to stabilize and consolidate his realm.
To be honest with you fellow Taoist, it was precisely because I received this news that I rushed back in a hurry to catch up with the tribe’s Dancheng celebration..."
Seeing that the other party didn't know about Ta Fei, Xie Duanyang knew that the wildfire department had blocked the news well, and he laughed and revealed a few details.
"Master Tafei's longevity is only over 100 years old. He is a rare talent even in most departments. If your department has such a person, it will definitely prosper."
The big man in green robe was shocked, and there was indescribable envy in his voice.
