Chapter 683 Late Jindan Period

A stream of light passed through the Jindan Sea and landed outside Bixing Island, revealing Wu Tao's figure.

"I haven't been back to Bixing Island for a month!"

Thinking of this, Wu Tao took out the token of the Bixing Island's island protection formation to open the Bixing Island formation and enter Bixing Island.

After Bixing Island became a third-level island, not only was the spiritual energy on the island more concentrated, but the spiritual fields and mines on the island also improved slightly, and the output and income of Bixing Island went to a higher level.

Of course, Wu Tao had never taken care of the output and income of Bixing Island, and left it to Chen Yao to take care of it. Chen Yao didn't need to take care of it all the time. She only needed to check the account book every quarter and listen to the report of the fairy manager Wang Sheng.

The Feilang Boat passed over the sky of Bixing Island and finally landed on the square outside the main hall.

As soon as it landed on the square outside the main hall, the three third-level monsters on the square came together and surrounded Wu Tao's feet.

The golden-winged eagle flying to the east of the island sensed Wu Tao's breath and turned into a golden light.

Needless to say, these four monsters came to ask for elixirs again.

Wu Tao gave himself a half-day holiday today, so he had plenty of time. He took out the golden elixir and foundation-building elixir from his storage bag and fed them to the three third-level initial monsters, the snow-white-haired tiger, the earth bear monster, and the diamond ape monster, as well as the golden-winged eagle.

Looking at the breath of the golden-winged eagle, he threatened it as usual, and then waved his arm to let the golden-winged eagle fly back to the sky.

At this time, the fairy servant Chen Juan also came over and bowed to Wu Tao: "Island Master, you are back."

"Well, there is nothing going on on the island this month?" Wu Tao looked at the fairy servant Chen Juan and asked.

Chen Juan said, "Island Master, there is nothing happening on the island this month."

Since Chen Juan became the fairy servant of Bixing Island, she found that it was unusually easy to do things on Bixing Island. The salary and benefits were the same as those of the fairy servants of other third-level islands. On weekdays, she was only responsible for cleaning other unimportant halls. For example, the hall used for cultivation did not need Chen Juan to clean.

So in addition to welcoming and seeing off the Jindan Zhenren who visited Bixing Island, she had enough time to practice.

In addition, Bixing Island is now a third-level island with a third-level high-level spiritual vein. She practiced here during the foundation-building period, and her cultivation speed was greatly improved.

For her own island master, Chen Juan admired him very much, like an idol in her heart.

After all, her own = island master, but in a short period of time, he was promoted from a third-level low-level refiner to a third-level high-level refiner. Now that she has the honor of becoming the fairy servant of Bixing Island, Chen Juan decided to work hard and have a bright future.

"Okay, you can practice on your own first." Wu Tao waved to Chen Juan, indicating that Chen Juan should leave.

According to the immortal servants of other islands, they should serve the island master tea at this time, and some will serve him personally, but Wu Tao does not have this habit.

"Yes, island master." Chen Juan retreated respectfully.

Wu Tao stepped into the main hall. When he came back, he did not inform Chen Yao that he was back today. First, he did not want Chen Yao to know that he was back today, so that she would put down her cultivation and wait for him with all her heart.

Second, coming back suddenly was also a surprise for Chen Yao.

He sat down in the main hall, and with a slight sense of his mind, he sensed that Chen Yao was practicing in her cultivation hall. At this time, the aura on her body was already the eighth level of foundation building.

"Ayao, it is still very easy to form a pill."

Of course, Chen Yao was born as a casual cultivator. If he had not met him, but met other casual cultivators, and did not bring Chen Yao into the sect and provide her with foundation building pills, Chen Yao would not be able to be promoted to the golden pill, and might have been in the Qi Refining Stage all her life.

After drinking a cup of tea in the main hall, Wu Tao came to the living hall. When he just came back, he went to the market to buy some monster meat. He hadn't been back to Bixing Island for a month, so he planned to cook a meal for Chen Yao.

Moreover, he had been practicing and absorbing spiritual energy for the past month, and had not eaten. Although the spirit-eaters are immortal, he also missed the monster meat and spiritual rice.

...

"I haven't seen my senior brother for a month. I miss him so much!"

In Chen Yao's practice hall, she had just finished practicing, opened her eyes, looked at the spirit gathering formation in front of her, and said to herself.

She also knew that now was an important moment. It was not just his senior brother who was busy, but the entire Xingchen Fairy Palace was busy.

All she could do was to practice well.

Thinking of this, Chen Yao got up from the futon, left the practice hall, passed through the main hall, and came to the square outside the main hall, intending to feed the snow-white tiger, the earth bear monster, the diamond ape monster, the golden-winged eagle and other monsters.

But when she appeared in the square outside the main hall, she found that the three demon beasts, the Snow White Haired Tiger, the Earth Bear Demon Beast, and the King Kong Ape Demon Beast, were lying down to practice. And the Golden Winged Eagle did not fly down to ask her for elixirs immediately.

"Strange, have these demon beasts changed their temperament? Whenever I come out, they come to ask for elixirs."

Chen Yao said to herself in doubt, and then sensed that the three initial demon beasts, the Snow White Haired Tiger, were faintly emitting the scent of golden elixir.

The doubt on her face instantly turned into surprise.

"It's my senior brother who is back!"

In the entire Bixing Island, only my senior brother and he have golden elixir and will feed these three third-level demon beasts on a daily basis. Moreover, these are third-level demon beasts, and other cultivators on Bixing Island dare not approach them at all. Then, only my senior brother has returned and fed them.

Chen Yao immediately released his divine consciousness, and then sensed that there was a busy figure in the living hall, cooking.

"Brother is really back!" She shouted in surprise, and in a flash, she arrived at the living hall.

"Brother."

"Ayao, I'm back."

Wu Tao originally wanted Chen Yao to wait for a while, and the food would be ready soon, but somehow, the two of them were sweating profusely in the living hall.

An hour later.

Wu Tao looked at the liquid on the ground and said, "Ayao, you go to the side to rest first, I will bring the food up, you haven't tasted my cooking for a long time."

As he said that, he cast a cleaning spell on the ground, clearing all the liquid on the ground, and the smell of heather dissipated.

Chen Yao was also tired at this time, almost exhausted, with a blush on her face. She nodded and sat down at the dining table nearby.

Soon, the two sat opposite each other and began to eat and enjoy the warmth of the two.

"Brother, you have worked hard during this period." Chen Yao served Wu Tao.

Wu Tao smiled and joked, "You know I'm working hard, but you just desperately asked me for it."

"Brother, can you blame me for this? You also hit hard." Chen Yao retorted.

Wu Tao smiled and said nothing, enjoying this warm atmosphere.

But this warmth only lasted for one night. Early the next morning, Wu Tao set out from Bixing Island and returned to the Warship Department of the War Equipment Hall of the Refining Hall.

The busyness began again.

Because the refining task is actually very urgent, every few days, Wu Tao will summon the third-level intermediate refiners of the twelve refining halls to explain the jade slip method to them, so that they can quickly comprehend it thoroughly and enter the refining work.

Another month later.

The third-level intermediate refiners of the twelve refining halls finally comprehended it thoroughly and began to enter the formal refining work.

As for the supply of spiritual materials, they don't have to worry about it. There will be a special logistics department to handle it. What they do is to concentrate on refining the parts of the Zhenyu Breaking God Pillar.

Although the refining task was very urgent, Wu Tao still practiced every day, and occasionally took some time to practice spells and other things.

He basically didn't sleep at all. When he was tired, he would meditate and regulate his breath, and soon he would be full of energy.

Moreover, he would give himself half a day off every month to go back to Bixing Island to see Chen Yao and give Chen Yao advice on the problems of cultivation.

In this rhythm of life, two years passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Wu Tao inspected the refining progress of the twelve refining halls as usual.

"Senior Brother Li." Wu Tao came to a refining hall, and a team leader of the third-level intermediate refiner in the refining hall came to report to Wu Tao on the refining progress of their refining hall.

After listening to the report of the third-level intermediate refiner, Wu Tao nodded to him and said with a smile: "Not bad, Junior Brother Xiang, you have done well, keep it up, and persist for another eight years..."

Wu Tao encouraged the refiners of this refinery hall, and then entered the next refinery hall for inspection, and finally came to the refinery hall of Gu Xingyuan and the other two.

Gu Xingyuan, as the team leader of this refinery hall, reported the refining task to Wu Tao. Because of their friendship, the reporting work this time was not as serious as that of other refinery halls.

After Gu Xingyuan finished his report, Wu Tao nodded, looked at Gu Xingyuan, and asked: "Junior Brother Gu, when do you plan to be promoted to a third-level senior refiner?"

In the past two years, although Gu Xingyuan has been very busy with refining tasks, he is not completely without time for cultivation and time to study the way of refining.

Twelve hours a day, it is impossible for refiners to really refine twelve hours a day. After all, refiners are not machines. Refining like this will cost lives.

In an emergency wartime state, eight hours of refining are required per day.

The remaining four hours are freely allocated by the refiners, so during this freely allocated time, Gu Xingyuan sometimes finds Wu Tao to ask him about the knowledge of the third-level advanced refining, and Wu Tao also explains it to him carefully.

While explaining, he also roughly knows Gu Xingyuan's progress in understanding the third-level advanced refining. Gu Xingyuan has the highest talent for refining among Ye Chaoming and Jin Cha.

Wu Tao calculated Gu Xingyuan's progress and found that he can almost be promoted to a third-level advanced refiner.

Gu Xingyuan said: "Not so fast yet, there is still a little opportunity, which is estimated to take 3 to 5 months."

Wu Tao nodded and said: "Okay, then come to me if you have any questions."

"Yes, thank you, Senior Brother Li!" Gu Xingyuan grinned and bowed to Wu Tao.

Wu Tao smiled and said, "Why are we being polite? And Junior Brother Ye, Junior Brother Jin, if you have any questions, just come to me directly."

"We know, Senior Brother Li." Ye Chaoming and Jin Cha on the side also smiled and bowed to Wu Tao.

Then, Wu Tao left Gu Xingyuan's refining hall and returned to his office. As soon as he returned to the office, he went into the practice room in the office.

Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Wu Tao showed a look of joy on his face. The reason was that he could break through the seventh level of Jindan today.

"As early as half a month ago, the progress of the sixth level of Jiuyao Rongyangji True Art had reached 99%. Because there were many things to do in the past two days, I suppressed and did not make a breakthrough. Today, there is nothing to do, which is suitable for a breakthrough."

Thinking like this, Wu Tao stretched out his hand and wiped his waist. Three streams of light flew out from the storage bag on his waist, and three jade bottles appeared in front of him. The next moment, the three jade bottles shattered. He opened his mouth and sucked the top-grade golden elixir into his mouth. The seventh-level spiritual fire and spiritual water had also been absorbed into the golden elixir in his dantian.

The Nine-Stars Fusion Yangji True Art was fully operated, rushing towards the seventh level of the golden elixir.

An hour later.

Wu Tao's aura suddenly shook, and he instantly broke through from the sixth level of the golden elixir to the seventh level of the golden elixir. His aura increased rapidly, and the golden elixir mana in his body also increased rapidly. His mind also increased by 100 miles in an instant, reaching 2480 miles.

At this time, he did not stop running the Nine-Stars Fusion Yangji True Art, but continued to use the power to consolidate the cultivation that had just broken through.

After another hour, the aura of the seventh level of the golden elixir on his body gradually stabilized. At this time, he stopped running the Nine-Stars Fusion Yangji True Art.

Opening his eyes, Wu Tao felt his own strength, which was much stronger than when he was at the sixth level of the Golden Core. As expected, no matter which realm, the improvement in the later stage is very huge.

"Now my divine consciousness has reached 2480 miles. When I cultivate to the perfection of the Golden Core, I can increase it by another 300 miles, which will be 2780 miles at that time. But the breakthrough of physical cultivation can also increase divine consciousness."

Wu Tao calculated that when he reached the perfection of the Golden Core and the True Body, he might be able to fight with the newly promoted Yuanying Zhenjun.

After feeling his own strength, he opened his personal information.

“96 years old!”

Wu Tao was a mortal in his previous life, so he still has a lot of feelings about this age. If he had always been a cultivator, he would not have such feelings about the age of 96.

Then he looked at the spell column.

In the spell column, his 6th refining of the nine refinements of the golden elixir has been completed, and the golden elixir mana has been improved once again. Now, his spells have basically reached the master's level of perfection, only the Tianxuanxuling Sword Spell has not yet reached the master's perfection.

"I have also upgraded the method of weapon refining and fighting to the Grandmaster level. Now I can control 22 real weapons at the same time."

The more Wu Tao practiced, the more he felt that this weapon refining and fighting method was really powerful. Master Wen Xingrui was really a genius.

Finally, he set his sights on the physical cultivation column.

"The progress of the sixth level of the Zhoutian Xingchen physical training has reached 81% now. According to 1.5 progress per month, it will take another year to break through to the late stage of the real body."

"This witch fighting method, the method of breaking the god in the real body realm, has also been polished to the Grandmaster level. It is really not easy."

This method of breaking the god is very powerful. Wu Tao has tried it, but he has not had the opportunity to find someone to try it with his Grandmaster-level method of breaking the god.

But he believes that it must be extremely powerful.

Afterwards, Wu Tao closed his personal information and prepared to leave the practice room to deal with some daily matters.

At this moment, the communication token in the storage bag on his waist moved, and he immediately took out the communication token and read it with his mind.

"Palace Master Xiong is looking for me?"

After reading the information in the communication token, Wu Tao found that it was Palace Master Xiong who asked him to go to his Palace Master Hall.

Today was not the day to report to Palace Master Xiong, Wu Tao was puzzled, wondering what Palace Master Xiong wanted to talk to him about at this moment.

However, since the fourth-level weapon refiner was looking for him, Wu Tao went there as soon as possible and did not dare to delay.
