Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 305

[Chapter 304: Enlightenment (Update 7)]

Green bamboo forest.

Inside the cave.

Fang Xi collected the Mountain and Sea Pearl, and felt the abundant spiritual energy around him. He couldn’t help but groan, “What a pity… The spiritual energy in the Mountain and Sea Pearl is of a low quality after all, far from enough for my cultivation…”

But he suddenly laughed, “I am greedy… Mobile cave, treasure of the void… I have never heard of such treasures before.”

Thinking of this month’s gains, Fang Xi couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

In the Son of God’s study, he also found several books on the art of corpse refining. After comparing and contemplating them with the Situ family’s inheritance, he felt greatly inspired.

Although he encountered several difficulties in refining the ‘Mysterious Fire Demon Zombie’ this time, he suddenly understood after thinking about it for a few days, and successfully integrated the ‘Nine Dragon Balls’ with the ox-horned demon cultivator.

With a thought, he took out a refined corpse from the spirit beast bag.

This refined corpse is two meters tall, with its upper body naked, revealing its strong muscles, and two thick horns on its head.

Compared with before, apart from a trace of corpse qi, the biggest change is that this person has many more patterns on his body that look like burning flames, and on the horns, there are also strands of dark red light patterns that flicker.

“Although the Nine Dragons Pearl has a blood and spirit restriction, zombies don’t have a Qi Sea or Dantian, so they are not afraid of it at all… and the pearl has completely dissolved and merged into this person’s body, enhancing the strength of the physical body…”

“Now this ‘Mysterious Fire Demon Zombie’ is almost complete. What’s left is to cast the forbidden spell and take it to some Yin meridian evil points to absorb the Yin energy of the ground veins…”

Fang Xi muttered to himself, and was about to put the ‘Mysterious Fire Demon Zombie’ away, when he suddenly slapped his forehead: “It’s best not to put a refined corpse in the spirit beast bag… The properties are not right. Although it may be okay for a while, it will not be worth it in the long run…”

He went to the warehouse and rummaged around, and found a pitch-black bag.

This was the spoils that Fang Xi had obtained from some unknown disciple of the Demon Sect. It was a ‘Yin Corpse Bag’ that was specially used to store refined corpses. It was said that if zombie refined corpses were placed in this kind of bag, the power of the refined corpses would slowly increase… Of course, these were usually first or second level refined corpses.

For a powerful third-level corpse like the ‘Mysterious Fire Demon Zombie’, even if it stays for a hundred years, the increased power will not be very significant, but at least it can be guaranteed that it will not degenerate…

After finishing these things, Fang Xi came to the retreat room and immersed himself in cultivation again.

Any magic weapon used to refine corpses is just an external object.

He never relied too much on others, the most important thing was always his own cultivation!
…

Half a month later.

A jet-black claw was suspended in the air, and the ancient patterns on it kept flashing.

Fang Xi spewed out a wisp of Dan fire, which wrapped around the “Poison Dragon Claw” magic weapon and was constantly refining it.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

This magic weapon emitted a clear sound throughout its body, and was unexpectedly connected to Fang Xi’s mind. It began to transform into a ray of black light, dancing in the secret room, and even constantly changing through spiritual means.

“Not bad, not bad… This magic weapon is powerful enough for me to use in the middle and late stages of my Core Formation.”

Fang Xi touched his storage ring and put the Poison Dragon Claw into it, not planning to cultivate it with his own true essence.

Now when he was practicing, he naturally focused on improving his magic power first. Most of the remaining golden elixir essence was used to cultivate the ‘Seal of Life and Death’, and even the ‘Qinghe Sword’ was gradually abandoned.

As for the third-grade top-grade ‘Ten Thousand Souls Banner’, Fang Xi found that he could not even control his own magic power.

Even if you try to drive it, there is a risk of being attacked by the Jindan Ghost King inside, so you should abandon it and wait until the late Jindan stage.

Not to mention the ‘Starry Chessboard’, he is simply unable to refine it now.

“Unfortunately… Although there are some medicinal pills in the Mountain and Sea Pearl, I don’t recognize most of them…”

“I don’t know if the rest of them have secretly planted demons… To be safe, I’ll deal with them like the demon materials and magic weapons, and replace them with spiritual medicines, which I will then refine into spiritual pills…”

“There are quite a few spiritual herbs in the spiritual herb garden of Shanhaizhu. We can look forward to seeing them when the year comes…”

Fang Xi thought about it, and the gray-white jade slip appeared in his hand. He began to comprehend the method of refining the ‘incarnation’.

After all, this method is somewhat incomplete, as he pieced it together at random.

It seemed perfect before, but when refining the ‘Xuanhuo Demon Zombie’, Fang Xi gradually discovered some small problems.

After meditating for half a day, he took out a ‘blood dragon fruit’ and took a bite.

Crisp, sweet…

A fragrance spread from his mouth, making his body shudder. He felt gentle power surging from his limbs and bones. He couldn’t help but praise: “It is worthy of being a top-level body refining resource… This fruit is not suitable for refining pills, but only for eating raw… It tastes good and is filling, much better than the Bigu Pill…”

After he got this fruit, he naturally took one from time to time to slowly strengthen his body.

After a short rest, he took out a box with many talismans pasted on it.

After opening it, a Bodhi seed emitting emerald green light and with nine eyes emerged.

A refreshing fragrance filled the air, refreshing his mind. Fang Xi suddenly felt that his consciousness had become much sharper, as if he had awakened.

“Nine-eyed Bodhi Seed, the most top-level treasure for enlightenment… I still have some doubts about refining the ‘body incarnation’, so I can try it with this…”

Fang Xi took the Nine-eyed Bodhi seed in his palm and clasped his hands together.

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound from heaven. Under this sound, his mind began to work rapidly, and many wonderful ideas emerged in his sea of consciousness.

Many new insights suddenly emerged regarding the daily formations, talismans, etc., which made him eager to continue studying them, and he was even confident that he could break through the current bottleneck!

Not only that, even the art of refining weapons, which he knew nothing about, seemed much easier.

The answers to some of the questions in the practice of “Withering and Flourishing Art” seemed to appear automatically in my mind…

“Is this what it feels like to be a god of learning?”

“No, you can’t let your thoughts wander, you must focus on the ‘outside body incarnation’!”

Fang Xi took out the jade slip that recorded the “incarnation” and began to comprehend it.

The next moment, more and more detailed insights emerged: “It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to when splitting the soul… This step in the method of refining the Six Desires Chaos Demon should be replaced by a trick in the corpse refining inheritance…”

“The magic materials needed… most of them can be found in the storage bags of those magic disciples… I think I can think of a substitute for the rest.”

“The soul fragment merges with the demon corpse and is refined into an external incarnation… There are also huge risks… If the clone is separated from the main body for too long, it is entirely possible that it will develop its own consciousness and then start to backfire… This is a hurdle that is difficult to overcome no matter what… But I don’t need to overcome it at all, I can ensure that the clone will never be separated from the main body for too long.”

…

After a while, Fang Xi came back to his senses from this state of ‘enlightenment’ and stared at the nine-eyed bodhi seed in his hand.

“Huh?”

The next moment, he discovered that the light of the Bodhi seed seemed to dim a little, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

After resealing the Nine-Eyed Bodhi Seed, he had an epiphany: “This Nine-Eyed Bodhi Seed has a certain number of uses…”

“Every time you use it from now on, you must use it on the blade…”

“But I have to say, the feeling that there was no problem that could stump me just now was really great…”

Fang Xi immediately took out a brand new jade slip and recorded on it the secret method of repairing his external incarnation after he had comprehended it.

“This external incarnation should be weaker than the real magic sect’s secret technique…”

“After all, it was just pieced together, and it was even mainly repaired by my own corpse refining heritage…”

“But it’s enough…”

“In this land of the Three Kingdoms, I have never heard of anyone having the secret method of transforming into an incarnation!”

Even though Situ Jiu had obtained the corpse refining inheritance, it only allowed the soul to possess the corpse for a short period of time, and then the soul had to return.

It can only be regarded as some kind of advanced “possession technique” rather than a great supernatural power of incarnation.

“The next step… is to refine the corpse of the Holy Son into an external incarnation.”

…

Another month has passed.

This day.

The tightly closed door of the cave in the bamboo forest finally opened.

Fang Xi walked out, and when he saw the light from outside, he squinted his eyes as if he was not used to it.

He raised his hand and grabbed a sound transmission note.

A crisp sound came out from it.

Fang Xi nodded, took out a sound transmission talisman, spoke a few words to it, and injected his magic power into it.

There was a flash of fire, and the sound transmission note disappeared.

Not long after, a bright yellow light fell, and standing in it was a heroic female foundation-building cultivator.

“Uncle Cao…you are finally out of seclusion?”

When Zheng Shan saw Fang Xi, her face was filled with surprise.

“Since you have already established your foundation, you can just call me ‘Senior Brother Cao’ from now on…”

Fang Xi grinned, but the smile was a little stiff.

Zheng Shan didn’t know why, but after talking to this ‘Senior Brother Cao’ for a few words and looking at his sharp white teeth, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

Originally, he wanted to share the joy of his foundation-building with this close friend, but now he said goodbye and left in a hurry without even entering the cave.

Fang Xi looked at this scene, his eyes sparkling.

After a long time, he suddenly laughed again and returned to the cave.

On a cushion, there was another Fang Xi sitting.

He looked at Cao Chongyun who came in and smiled: “Although I have successfully cultivated an external incarnation… it is still a little insensitive. As expected, I need to absorb some Yin meridian energy and complete the last few steps before I can control it perfectly…”

Cao Chongyun had a blank expression on his face. Suddenly he opened his mouth and spat out a mirage bead.

The next moment, his body shape changed and turned into a corpse with gray and black features.

It was exactly the same appearance as the Holy Son before!
However, compared to before, this person’s face seemed to have regained its youthfulness and looked very handsome.

This was naturally because Fang Xi slightly modified its skin when refining it, restoring its youthful appearance.

Of course, this kind of transformation is just like the effect of elixirs like “Guyan Dan”, which only maintains the skin, without any changes inside.
