Chapter 389 Plop! Plop!
In the nightmare beast's dream, under the crater of the dormant volcano, in an underground space 80 feet deep.
The gathering spirit array in front of Xu Yang radiated thousands of rays of light, illuminating the surrounding area with a red glow, like an underground temple of fire. In the center of the array, clusters of fire breath flowed continuously on the body of Ah Zhu in the form of a firebird, highlighting the sacredness and grandeur of the Vermillion Bird.
For half a year, Ah Zhu, as the center of the gathering spirit array, was responsible for controlling the power of fire breath drawn from the fire breath veins. Ah Zhu was not only not tired at all, but her breath was fuller. As a flame spirit, it was like it had experienced a long baptism of fire.
Ah Zhu was Xu Yang's natal spirit pet.
The so-called natal spirit pet is a spirit pet that has reached a natal blood contract with its master. After that, the soul power between the master and the spirit pet will remain at about the same level. If the soul power level of one party is far higher than that of the other party, it will be difficult to match the soul power fluctuations, which will cause a strong load on the lower party. Since soul power is the foundation of cultivation, it can be said that the cultivation of the natal spirit pet and its owner usually go hand in hand.
Through the natal blood contract, the soul power fluctuations of the owner and the natal spirit pet can be completely consistent. In this way, the spirit pet owner can not only better control the natal spirit pet, but also use the special abilities of the natal spirit pet to assist himself. For example, Ah Zhu used his special Nirvana power to help Xu Yang perform the Nirvana Nine Transformations, thus avoiding the volcanic eruption crisis encountered during the autumn hunting activity.
Under normal circumstances, the intelligence of spirit pets is much lower than that of their owners, and their cultivation speed is far slower than that of their owners. In order to keep the natal spirit pet and himself in roughly synchronized cultivation, the spirit pet owner can only spend a lot of time on the natal spirit pet. Therefore, few cultivators choose to sign a natal blood contract with their spirit pets. And the few who choose their natal spirit pets will also be very picky, looking for the same attributes as their own merits and physical attributes, and the spiritual intelligence must also be quite high.
Xu Yang and Ah Zhu just meet these conditions.
Now, Xu Yang is ready to break through the bottleneck and condense the original golden pill. As Xu Yang's natal spirit pet, Ah Zhu has also reached the time to condense his own original demon pill.
Ah Zhu is originally a body of the Vermillion Bird, which can be said to be a special kind of demon body with noble bloodline, and has awe-inspiring divine power, so it is also respected by people as the Xuantian True Spirit. At present, Ah Zhu's Vermillion Bird soul has not yet fully awakened, and has not yet shown its due powerful divine power. But it is still much stronger than the spirit beasts of the same level.
At this time, Xu Yang's eyes were slightly closed, and enough fire breath spiritual power had been accumulated in his body, and these spiritual powers were refined to be extremely pure.
After half a year of adjustment, Xu Yang's mental power has also reached its peak state, like a full moon on the fifteenth day, perfect.
Next, what Xu Yang has to do is to melt the spiritual power purified in his spiritual sea with his own mental power together to refine the original golden pill. And the power to fuse the two together is Xu Yang's own spiritual power. Therefore, in order to condense the Benyuan Jindan, sufficient spiritual power, mental power, and soul power are indispensable.
"Azhu, are you ready? Let's condense the Jindan together." Xu Yang transmitted his voice.
"Xiaoxian, I'm ready." Azhu said confidently.
Last time, during the volcanic disaster, Xu Yang used Azhu's own Nirvana Nine Transformations to break through to the Peiyuan realm. But because the incident happened suddenly, Azhu was not prepared, and she consumed too much soul power to cover Xu Yang, so her body remained in the Huaxu realm. As a result, Azhu degenerated into a "red shell egg" for a long time afterwards, sleeping and practicing. Xu Yang was worried for a long time.
So this time, Xu Yang decided to condense the elixir with Azhu, so that Azhu would not bear the risk of degenerating into the "red shell egg" for practicing.
The two started to condense the elixir at the same time.
First, all the mental power is introduced into the spiritual sea full of spiritual power. The so-called mental power is the power of divine consciousness, which is usually deposited in the sea of consciousness under the top of the head.
Xu Yang silently recited the mantra to calm his mind, eliminating all distracting thoughts, and achieved the state of unity of mind and spirit, selflessness and guarding the spirit. His powerful mental power was drawn from the sea of consciousness in the top of his head.
The mental power was compressed into substance, like a transparent and clear stream, and directly entered the spiritual sea in the purple mansion space through the Haoran Tianmai. Possessing the Haoran Tianmai is what makes Xu Yang different. The benefits are obvious. It allows the mental power to enter the spiritual sea almost intact, and it is fast and stable.
When most cultivators choose to condense their own life golden elixir, they will use special elixirs to assist. The "Jie Shen Dan" in Xu Yang's storage bag is a good elixir.
The advantage of using elixir elixir to condense the elixir is that the powerful medicinal spirit power brought by the elixir can provide enough spiritual power and slightly make up for the lack of mental power and soul power, thereby increasing the success rate of elixir.
But the disadvantage is that since the process relies on the power of the medicine, it will affect the level of the original golden elixir. This is because even the best elixir contains tiny impurities, which will produce side effects. Legend has it that only the best elixir in the fairy world can be completely pure and free of impurities. Taking one pill can change one's fate.
At present, Xu Yang is confident that he can condense the original golden pill without the help of the external force of the pill. After all, he has had similar experience in condensing the pill. In his purple mansion space, there is already a black crystal fake pill and a red blood fake pill.
The spiritual power and the spiritual power in the spiritual sea are mixed together, but the nature of the two is different. It looks like a transparent silk thread entering a ball of red liquid.
The next step is to calcine the soul power.
Use the purple mansion space as a furnace, ignite the soul power, and use it to calcine the spiritual power and mental power until the two are perfectly integrated and form the original golden pill. Under normal circumstances, once the original golden pill is formed by the cultivators in the Peiyuan realm, the mental power and the ability to store spiritual power in the spiritual sea will increase exponentially, and the performance of the body will increase by more than three times.
Inspire the soul power and ignite the soul fire.
Soul power is the power of the soul of living beings, and it is also the life of living beings. A beast, a person, a tree, and even a blade of grass have their own different soul power. As humble as a blade of grass, its tiny soul power is almost imperceptible, but it still exists. And the soul power of the cultivator will become stronger and stronger through continuous practice.
Although the soul fire is called fire, it is not a real flame. It is a boiling state of soul power.
Under normal circumstances, the soul will settle in every inch of muscle, skin, and bone, and achieve a high degree of unity with the flesh. Once the flesh is lost, the soul will lose its support and show its true form. At this time, the original form of the soul is more like a pale white cloud, which contains the essence of the soul. After a long time, it will dissipate and become invisible.
Xu Yang extracted his soul power from every inch of muscle, bone, and skin, and entered the purple mansion space.
The fire of the soul ignited, calcining the spiritual power and mental power in the spiritual sea.
This process is very similar to the monks refining the elixir. As an alchemy master, Xu Yang can draw inferences from one instance and have some insights. But it is very different from making elixir in the alchemy furnace.
The similarity is that they all pay attention to the fire, and the fire cannot be too strong or too warm, just right to succeed. The difference is that the alchemy is to melt the medicinal materials in the elixir through the furnace fire and transform it into a new pill, while trying to remove the impurities in it. The condensation of the original golden elixir focuses on the balance and fusion of soul power, mental power and spiritual power, without changing the properties of the three at all.
Xu Yang manipulated the soul fire to turn into thousands of thin lines, emitting warm soul power to entangle the mental power and spiritual power together for calcination. Not hurried or slow, step by step.
The mental power and spiritual power gradually merged, just like two pieces of ice next to each other, which became indistinguishable after turning into water.
After an unknown period of time, a golden vortex appeared faintly in Xu Yang's purple mansion space, and a pill-shaped object gradually took shape in the center of the vortex.
The last step of Dan formation, and also the most critical step, is the recasting of the spirit vein. While the new spirit vein grows, the original golden pill is formed.
The most important part of a cultivator's improvement in cultivation level is the recasting of the spirit vein. From the initial spiritual realm to the transformation realm, every time with the improvement of the realm, the original spirit vein will be recast into a stronger and stronger spirit vein to suit a much stronger body than before.
Spiritual vein recasting.
Xu Yang's spirit vein was originally a fire attribute spirit vein. After that, after refining the three-turn ghost vein pill given to him by Yaksha Ming in the evil ghost trial, three more fire attribute spirit veins appeared, and now he has four fire attribute spirit veins. Don't look at it as just four spirit veins. Due to Xu Yang's various adventures, the thickness and ability of his spirit veins are comparable to the effect of the highest number of ten spirit veins of the same level cultivator.
Next, what Xu Yang has to do is to melt his own four spirit veins and recast new four spirit veins, but it is also the most dangerous. The moment the spirit vein melts, the body will fall into a momentary stagnation. Not only can it not mobilize a trace of mana, but the consciousness will also have a very short blank period.
Many cultivators were originally well prepared when they formed the pill. But at the moment of forming the pill, the moment when the consciousness had a blank period, the body fluctuated, causing the golden pill to dissipate and all the previous efforts to be wasted.
One of the keys for cultivators to form the pill is to make the previous foundation solid and stable enough. Therefore, successful cultivators will not rush for success in every step from entering the spiritual realm to the virtual realm to the Peiyuan realm. Accumulating small steps can lead to a thousand miles.
The spiritual veins melted.
Using the inner knowledge method, the four fiery red spiritual veins connecting Xu Yang's purple palace space and meridians began to beat. That was Xu Yang's pulse, and its rhythm was synchronized with the rhythm of his heartbeat.
At this time, his pulse became faster and faster, and more and more powerful. Just like a person who wants to jump over a wide river, he needs to run a long distance to complete the final leap.
Plop! Plop! Plop!
Xu Yang, who was concentrating his mind, had an empty world. He could clearly hear his heartbeat, like the sound of a war drum of a general going out to battle, sonorous and powerful.
Suddenly, the drum-like heartbeat stopped, and Xu Yang's four spiritual veins began to melt, like iron wire that was burned red until it softened.
Just when Xu Yang's spiritual veins were about to be recast.
In Xu Yang's empty v world, Ah Zhu's extremely anxious voice suddenly came.
"Xiaoxian! The situation has changed! Stop the breakthrough!"
But at this time, Xu Yang's consciousness just fell into a short blank period, and he could not hear Ah Zhu's reminder at all.
Xu Yang without consciousness, the unpredictable crisis, and Ah Zhu who was extremely anxious, may be the real secret of the nightmare beast dream behind it.
