Chapter 132: Soul Refining Technique!
"This woman really knows how to act..." Seeing this, Yang Tian's mouth twitched involuntarily. Meng Yun Xi was an alchemist, and this piece of land was clearly on her radar.
After a moment of silence, Yang Tian glanced around inside his ancestral dragon ring. There were plenty of spiritual medicines inside, but they were all exotic species, and Yang Tian was reluctant to sell them.
"Uncle Xiao, does your secret cave still exist?" With his consciousness appearing in the ancestral dragon ring, Yang Tian couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry. Back then, I set up several layers of killing formations, and they're very concealed. There's my divine soul imprint inside, which hasn't dissipated yet. The secret cave is definitely fine," Yang Xiao said with a smile upon hearing this.
"That's good, that's good." Yang Tian's consciousness withdrew. Back then, Yang Xiao had left a secret cave in the Eastern Continent, containing some of Yang Xiao's belongings. Opening this cave required some special methods, hence Yang Tian needed to purchase refining materials.
Yang Tian was determined to acquire the cave left behind by an ancient powerhouse, especially since it contained something of Yang Xiao's. These refining materials were essential.
"Brother Yang Tian, have you thought it over? Sell the medicine field to sister," Meng Yun Xi said, raising her willowy eyebrows, pursing her sexy red lips, and gazing at Yang Tian with enticing eyes, smiling sweetly.
"Uh..." Seeing this, Yang Tian was taken aback, looking at the enchanting woman in front of him, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
"How much can this thing sell for?" Sighing, Yang Tian, out of desperation, took out a Rhyme Divine Lotus Seed and handed it to Meng Yun Xi.
As she stroked the Rhyme Divine Lotus Seed in her hand, a hint of surprise flashed in Meng Yun Xi's eyes, and she couldn't help but ask, "This is a Rhyme Divine Lotus Seed, and it's quite old. Where did you get it?"
"You don't need to know that. How much is it worth?" Yang Tian tapped the table with his fingers, smiling. But inside, he was very reluctant. The Rhyme Divine Lotus Seed still had a significant use for him.
"Young man, you have quite a few treasures on you," Meng Yun Xi said with a pout, thinking for a moment before smiling, "This lotus seed is worth about five hundred thousand mid-tier blood stones. If it goes on the auction block, it might fetch even more, possibly doubling in price."
"Double!" Hearing this, Yang Tian was startled. Five hundred thousand blood stones were already beyond his expectations, and he thought to himself that the auction house was too ruthless, selling it to her would be a significant loss.
"How long until the auction house holds the event?" After thinking for a while, Yang Tian asked. He couldn't afford to waste too much time in Town Demon City, fearing some unexpected developments.
"There's about half a month left. By then, many people will surely come," Meng Yun Xi said with a mysterious smile, clearly indicating that there would be many good items at the auction.
"Alright then, you need to help me gather these refining materials as soon as possible. I'll leave after the auction," Yang Tian nodded and smiled, indicating he could wait half a month.
"Mhm," Meng Yun Xi nodded and immediately smiled, "There seems to be some news about your brother. However, the intelligence isn't very accurate. It seems like he has organized an assassin group, specializing in assassinating people from the Candle Blood Demon Palace."
"An assassin group?" Hearing this, Yang Tian frowned. If the intelligence was true, Yang Ba's life was in danger, constantly walking on the edge of a knife.
At the same time, a tense nerve in his heart finally relaxed. Having news of Yang Ba was good; he no longer needed to search aimlessly.
"I'll only tell you this much for now. Sister has other matters to attend to and must leave first," Meng Yun Xi stood up, swaying her sexy waist as she turned and left.
After a moment of silence, Yang Tian forcefully suppressed his emotions and appeared inside the ancestral dragon ring.
Ahead, the colorful medicine field emitted a hazy mist, planted with about a hundred spiritual medicines, all rare species growing very quickly.
This medicine field, transplanted into the ancestral dragon ring, caused the surrounding soil to mutate. The essence contained within the colorful medicine field was too abundant, making it an extraordinary treasure land.
Strands of hazy mist fell onto the roots of the spiritual medicines, causing them to grow rapidly, with astonishing vitality contained within.
Among them, a golden exotic herb had strands of mist coiling around its dragon-like body, extremely gorgeous, emitting the most terrifying medicinal power. This spiritual medicine grew in the center of the field.
Above this spiritual medicine, a drop of Vitality Water fell at intervals, causing the growth rate of the entire plant to be a hundred times faster than outside, and the contained medicinal power was astonishing.
This was a Dragon Whisker Grass, a method devised by Yang Xiao that made Yang Tian feel pain. This Dragon Whisker Grass was cultivated for Xiao Bai, capable of stimulating the energy of his body.
"Once the secret cave is found, there are several ancient tree fragments inside. If transplanted here, the space of the ancestral dragon ring will look a bit more presentable," Yang Xiao said with a smile.
"Hehe..." Yang Tian also chuckled. The function of ancient trees was to emit ancient aura, and these treasure trees had already become extinct, yet there were several in Yang Xiao's secret cave.
"You need to hurry up and improve your cultivation. The current time ratio is too small," Yang Xiao stood up, walked over to Yang Tian, and said with a smile, "I'll teach you a method for cultivating the divine soul now."
"Thank you, Uncle Xiao," Yang Tian said, quickly sitting cross-legged. He had already asked about it along the way. Yang Xiao knew several divine soul techniques.
Yang Xiao nodded and flicked his finger, a black light instantly sweeping to Yang Tian's forehead. A vast amount of memory surged out, drilling into Yang Tian's sea of consciousness.
Rows of pitch-black characters imprinted in Yang Tian's mind, emitting eerie black light, each character extremely profound.
Soul Refining Technique, a divine soul cultivation method, capable of nurturing the heavens and earth souls, condensing the life soul's body! Upon mastering, one can achieve an unparalleled primordial spirit...
"This is a method that leads directly to the primordial spirit!" Yang Tian exclaimed in surprise as he comprehended the initial part of the technique. Generally, divine soul techniques were incomplete, yet this one could be cultivated all the way to the primordial spirit realm!
Yang Tian pondered the technique for a while, then opened his eyes, filled with confusion, and asked, "Uncle Xiao, where do I absorb soul energy from?"
The technique required absorbing soul energy to strengthen the divine soul body, but Yang Tian had only vaguely seen something about soul energy in ancient texts, with an incorrect understanding.
"Soul energy? It's the soul energy contained within the divine soul. Didn't you know?" Yang Xiao patted Yang Tian's shoulder, somewhat teasingly.
"Soul energy contained within the divine soul?" Frowning, Yang Tian's face was filled with confusion. After thinking for a moment, his eyes widened.
"That's soul robbery!" Yang Tian couldn't help but smack his lips. This technique required robbing divine soul bodies and plundering the contained soul energy.
Seeing Yang Tian's stunned expression, Yang Xiao nodded and said calmly, "That's right, but don't kill recklessly, and don't absorb too much soul energy, or your cultivation will be unstable."
"That won't be a problem. I have plenty of enemies; I can't kill them all," Yang Tian said, scratching his head and laughing. He didn't have the heart to kill ordinary people.
"Hehe, it just so happens that there's still a lot of soul energy in the soul crystals that hasn't been absorbed. Absorbing all of it will likely raise your divine soul by one or two small realms," Yang Xiao said with a smile.
"Mhm," Yang Tian nodded, his consciousness sinking into his sea of consciousness. At this moment, the divine soul avatar was soaking in the medicinal power of the Rhyme Divine Lotus Seed, and its primal power was strengthening.
Currently, the divine soul avatar sat cross-legged on the soul crystal, its two vague little hands forming seals. The surrounding soul energy was instantly drawn in, strands of soul energy accompanied by medicinal power, flowing into the divine soul body.
With each refinement, the energy contained within the divine soul body grew stronger, an astonishing growth rate.
"What stage is this Soul Refining Technique? This cultivation speed is too fast," Yang Tian muttered as he observed his divine soul. With this technique, the speed of divine soul cultivation would be incredibly fast.
After a while, Yang Tian took out a fist-sized blood stone, a top-quality blood stone obtained from the Demon Fall Land. Yang Tian rubbed his hands and placed the blood stone on his knee.
At this moment, Yang Tian's mouth and nose opened wide, and a suction force suddenly emerged, like a whale sucking water. A vast amount of vitality surged out from the top-quality blood stone, flowing into Yang Tian's mouth and nose.
Each drop was crystal clear, without a trace of impurities. This stream of vitality fell into Yang Tian's river of vitality, causing the entire river to tremble.
Boom! Thunder roared, the wind howled, and lightning danced on the sea of blood. After the strands of robust vitality entered the river of vitality, the energy inside surged violently.
This was a qualitative improvement. Each drop of vitality was sublimating, containing infinite energy. Yang Tian's entire body emitted mist, and all his acupoints glowed with red light.
The river of vitality was compressing, each drop of vitality rapidly improving at a terrifying speed. If a drop of vitality before was like a spark, it now developed into a flame.
Madly absorbing the energy contained within the top-quality blood stone, his overall strength was advancing by leaps and bounds. Top-quality blood stones were extremely rare, treasures of the cultivation world, formed from the blood of peerless cultivators over hundreds of thousands of years.
"The Battle Heaven Technique is indeed worthy of being created by the old clan chief. This absorption speed is unmatched by few techniques," Yang Xiao's gaze was fixed on Yang Tian, noticing this absorption speed and couldn't help but praise.
"Awoo..." Xiao Bai also expressed his agreement, swaying in place as if drunk, emitting strands of demon energy from his body.
This was Yang Xiao using special methods to split the energy of the demon pill and feed it to Xiao Bai. As the Devouring Heavenly Beast, known for devouring anything, this bit of energy was no challenge for Xiao Bai.
"With these cultivation resources, even a divine son would be left behind," Yang Tian muttered after absorbing for a while. This speed of improvement was too terrifying, describable as divine speed.
With the vast vitality, Yang Tian's absorption speed of the Star Pill's medicinal power also increased significantly. His entire body was sprinkled with starlight, and both his flesh body and sea of qi were improving.
Yang Tian completely immersed himself in cultivation, opening the furnace daily to refine a pill. With Yang Xiao's guidance, Yang Tian's cultivation system became more refined...
