Chapter 386: Accommodating the strengths of a hundred families, exchanging for massive foundation, walking the path of one person alo

~33 min read 6,448 words

The vast light column attracted the attention of everyone within a radius of ten thousand miles the moment it appeared.

On the Nine Thunder Mountains, all cultivators were shaken together.

Looking at the brilliant light column, while fearing in their hearts, their eyes were full of fanaticism.

Ruins!

Such a scene had appeared before.

It was three hundred years ago, when the Yuding Sword Sect opened the Lingkong Secret Realm.

The Lingkong Secret Realm is rumored to be the location of an ancient great power's ruin cave dwelling.

Until now, the Yuding Sword Sect has not fully explored it.

That kind of light column is not any strange light, but caused by the massive spiritual energy leaking out in an instant.

Such a majestic spiritual energy leak shows that the owner of the ruin must have a realm that is absolutely not low!

Even if it is not an ancient great power, it is definitely an existence related to the Soul Transformation great power.

Almost the moment the ruin appeared, countless rogue cultivators spontaneously rushed over.

And the chaotic Eighth Mountain battlefield, under the reprimand of the Jin Dan masters on both sides, also sounded the retreat.

Then, the Jin Dan masters led by the Luoyun Sect and the Sword Sect sent people to the Jiushan one after another to clear out the idlers.

The second day.

Outside Xiankong Valley.

A giant concave hole appeared in front of everyone.

The six sects combined, nearly twenty Jin Dan cultivators arrived at the scene, and everyone stared at the concave hole and the door that opened below.

The dark and pitch-black door was like a black hole, swallowing all light.

Silver-white lightning crackled and exploded from time to time, making people look at it with awe.

Amidst the noise, a very young Daoist walked out from the Sword Sect side.

Seemingly only in his early twenties, but the majestic momentum suppressed all the Jin Dan cultivators present.

Yaoguang!

Late-stage Jin Dan!

Yuding Sword Cultivator!

Every identity made people's hearts feel heavy.

Looking at the open door, Master Yaoguang showed a look of surprise.

"Great power ruin! Soul Transformation cave dwelling!"

The words fell.

The crowd that had become quiet because of him became restless again.

In the bustling crowd, streaks of spiritual sense transmission permeated.

Master Yaoguang withdrew his gaze and swept across the crowd.

Under his accumulated prestige, everyone couldn't help but change their expressions.

Wouldn't the Sword Sect occupy the Lingkong Secret Realm exclusively like three hundred years ago?

Suddenly!

"Fellow Daoist Cheng Yan, what do you think?"

Yaoguang changed the subject and asked the Luoyun Sect elder, who was previously a great enemy, with a peaceful tone.

A late-stage Jin Dan great cultivator named Cheng Yan.

Under the gaze of everyone, the white-haired old man said with a dry voice: "For the specific situation, everyone should have heard what Jueqing Fairy said!"

Everyone nodded.

Not long ago, Jueqing Fairy had already recounted the general process.

A guest elder of the Ice Fortress at the Foundation Establishment stage triggered a thunder formation, killing the Yan Alliance Jin Dan elder Di Wanyun, and inadvertently triggered this cave dwelling left by a Soul Transformation great power, even pulling boundless thunder to open the cave dwelling door.

This record, if it were usual, would definitely shock countless people in the Yuding Region.

But in front of a Soul Transformation cave dwelling and a great power ruin, it was completely nothing.

"What do you mean?" Yaoguang asked with a smile.

Cheng Yan nodded, "Since it was opened by Ice Fortress and Yan Alliance cultivators, there is no reason for our two great upper sects to occupy it exclusively. What's more, the six sects are here, so it should be shared by all."

As soon as these words came out, before Yaoguang could react.

The Jin Dan masters of the other four sects expressed their agreement one after another.

The two masters of Ailao Mountain, the three masters of Qingdan Valley, Yinyue and Jueqing of Ice Fortress, and even the two Jin Dan masters of the Yan Alliance with gloomy expressions.

None of them had any questions.

Only among those vassal forces, the first-class forces possessing Jin Dan masters were unwilling.

A majestic man walked out from the crowd.

"Brother Yaoguang, for this battle, my Tiandao Sect lost nearly 70% of its sect members, which can be called tragic."

"Now that the great power ruin is in front, there must be opportunities inside."

"Can't we also get a share of the pie?"

While he was speaking, the masters of other vassal forces also couldn't help but speak.

"Fellow Daoist Tianque is right!"

"Opportunities are in front, it should be obtained by those who have fate."

"Brother Cheng also said, everyone has a share, there is no reason to leave us out."

"And our reaction is relatively slow, some Foundation Establishment rogue cultivators have already rushed in. They can share a bit, there is no reason to exclude us."

Between words, the momentum actually had signs of taking the initiative.

These vassal forces possessing Jin Dan masters are not just from the Sword Sect side.

When he was participating in the Dao Seed Struggle and first arrived at the Green Elixir Valley, Tao Yisheng had enthusiastically introduced to him how strong the Green Elixir Valley was and how vast the number of its cultivators was.

The Yan Alliance side also has one!

Therefore, no one really took the initiative to stop it, so as not to be unstable internally.

Everyone was waiting for the Sword Sect and the Luoyun Sect to make the decision.

Facing this surging crowd, Yaoguang of the Sword Sect still had a smile on his face, but the smile was a bit cold.

The folding fan in his hand closed suddenly.

"Okay!"

"Since everyone has the heart to explore, my Yuding Sword Sect naturally won't spoil everyone's interest."

"Those who want to go, can go."

"But there is one condition, the six sects must agree!"

Everyone was stunned, not expecting the Sword Sect to be so easy to talk to.

There was no usual domineering style of conduct.

For a time, everyone focused their attention on the old man of the Luoyun Sect.

Yaoguang can represent the Sword Sect Alliance, so on the Four Sect Alliance side, it is naturally the late-stage Jin Dan Cheng Yan who is the leader.

What is his opinion?

Cheng Yan stared at Yaoguang with turbid eyes, "Fellow Daoist, just say it."

Yaoguang smiled slightly, "It's very simple, vassal forces don't need to say more, but each of our six sects can only enter one Jin Dan master!"

"Just like this?" Cheng Yan frowned.

Yaoguang nodded, "Just like this!"

"Are there any restrictions on Foundation Establishment true cultivators and Qi Refining cultivators?"

"None!"

"Good, I agree!"

A strange look flashed on Cheng Yan's face, and he agreed extremely readily.

The other four sects had no opinion, they could send one Jin Dan master in, and they would always have some gains.

Soon!

Under the auspices of each sect, Jin Dan masters were sent in one after another, bringing a large number of Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining disciples into the cave dwelling door.

And those Jin Dan masters of the vassal forces had already rushed in one step ahead.

The only surprise was that the Sword Sect only sent one Jin Dan master.

It was Kaiyang, who had fought Linghu Jie before.

Seeing the other party enter alone, Cheng Yan's expression changed slightly.

He summoned Linghu Jie.

"Qi Qi Shixiong, what are your orders?" Linghu Jie asked in a low voice.

In front of others, he displayed the prestige of a sect elder, and his conduct was arrogant and domineering.

But in front of this senior brother, whose age and seniority were still above the Luoyun Sect's True Person Han Zhan, he behaved very obediently.

"The Yuding Sword Sect has experience in exploring Soul Transformation ruins, and must know some similar laws."

"You must not be greedy for merit and advance rashly when you enter, you must do it slowly."

"In addition, try to let the disciples you bring in drive puppets to explore. I think it should be much more efficient than the other sects."

"In short, try to be stable. I have already notified Junior Brother Han Zhan to rush over as soon as possible. By then, things here will be stable."

A series of words, spoken unhurriedly, told in detail.

Linghu Jie suppressed the restlessness in his heart and nodded slightly.

"Junior Brother understands."

"Go... oh right, besides being careful of the dangers of the ruins, you must be wary of other Jin Dan cultivators."

Cheng Yan looked at him, a look of love appearing on his face, "The danger of people is even worse than ancient cultivation means!"

"Qi Qi Shixiong is right, Junior Brother will keep it in mind!"

Linghu Jie gave a hum and stepped into that deep door.

Such a scene was also happening in other sects.

At Ice Fortress!

Two women, expressions cold, tit-for-tat.

"Sect Master Zhou Shijie is on her way, I will go in first to scout the situation, which is the right reason."

"You are afraid that you want to abandon the affairs here and go because of the opportunity to break through to Nascent Soul inside!"

"Jueqing, aren't you?"

"I can feel my Profound Ice Talisman was triggered, Luo Chen might not be dead yet, I want to bring him out!"

"Humph, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, his life or death has nothing to do with my Ice Fortress! Jueqing Zhou Shijie, why do you have to make such a look of being affectionate and righteous?"

"He is a talent specifically named by the Supreme Elder. If he really dies, neither you nor I can afford the responsibility!"

"Then tell me what to do. Both you and I have reasons why we must go. Staying here in a stalemate will only let cultivators from other sects get there first."

Just when the two were in a stalemate.

Fairy Jueqing's expression changed slightly.

The Profound Ice Talisman mark she personally bestowed upon Luo Chen had disappeared!

This meant that the ice-sealing defensive power contained within it had been completely exhausted.

Is Luo Chen dead?

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

The news that a Soul Transformation cave dwelling had appeared in Thunder Mountain had spread throughout the entire Yuding Domain.

Coupled with the confrontation between the two great upper sects, it instead gave rogue cultivators an opportunity.

For a time, countless cultivators in the Yuding Domain rushed to this place.

It could even be said that cultivators from two major domains relatively close to the Yuding Domain had also set off, wanting to explore the opportunity.

And in this process.

The war between the two great upper sects was finally eased and slowly stopped.

Rogue cultivators were returning one after another to where the various immortal cities were located.

Outside Tianlan Xiancheng, on Danxia Peak.

All Foundation Establishment true cultivators gathered together!

Today, Chu Kui had recovered from his serious injuries and came out of seclusion.

Facing a hall full of Luotian Society Foundation Establishment true cultivators, Chu Kui brought up the past again, talking about that battle back then.

The battle where Danchenzi killed Di Wanyun, which had been ignored by the world, also fell into everyone's ears in great detail for the first time.

"I am extremely clear about Luo Chen's ability. When he had the opportunity to escape, he instead set up a killing formation, which shows that he must have had a backup plan. You don't need to worry too much."

"Not worry, how can we not worry!"

A crisp female voice echoed in the hall, and Gu Caiyi said with a worried face, "That was the Ten Thousand Thunder Bombardment that could kill a Core Formation True Person. What kind of backup plan could withstand that?"

Duan Feng spoke up.

"Min Longyu, that formation was given to the President by you. Is there any way to avoid lightning?"

For a moment, countless gazes gathered.

Min Longyu took a deep breath and answered rapidly, "There is, but according to what Fellow Daoist Chu said, the President directly drew upon the thunder clouds that had accumulated for thousands of years on the Jiushan. With the lightning avoidance means I left behind, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to vent even one or two out of ten."

When these words came out, everyone's hearts sank.

Gu Caiyi stepped out from the crowd, "If he's alive, we must see the person; if he's dead, we must see the corpse. We must go find the President!"

Speaking of this, her long, narrow eyes swept over all the Foundation Establishment true cultivators present.

"Don't forget, without the President, none of us would be where we are today. Among those present, who hasn't received the President's kindness?"

Facing these words, no one could sit still.

"I'll go. I am proficient in formations, and even if it's a Soul Transformation relic, I can understand a little bit more than everyone else," Min Longyu said.

"I garrisoned there for three years and am extremely familiar with the terrain of Thunder Mountain, so I should have a share," Duan Feng said.

"The President has the grace of rebirth for me, and is also a great benefactor to my Li family, so I should naturally go find the President," Li Yingzhang said with a sincere expression.

Successive requests to fight rang through the hall.

In the end, a low female voice overwhelmed everyone.

"Enough!"

Gu Caiyi turned around suddenly, staring fixedly at the woman above.

"Sima Hui Niang, what do you mean?"

Sima Hui Niang looked at her for a moment, then looked away.

Her gaze fell on another man who had been silent.

"Hall Master Wang, you said before that you and the President were the first to discover that relic?"

Wang Yuan raised his head and spoke slowly.

"Yes, Luo Chen said that the key to the gate of that relic should be the thunder in the sky."

Sima Hui Niang nodded, "In other words, the President deliberately chose the Valley of Trapped Sky as the battlefield."

Seeing Gu Caiyi about to speak again, Sima Hui Niang continued, not giving her a chance to interrupt.

"The President's wisdom far exceeds ours, and every move he makes must have a deep meaning. Along the way, no matter what crisis he encountered, he would leave behind enough backup plans."

Everyone couldn't help but nod.

The situation was indeed so.

When he destroyed the Fu family back then, the President knew that Miao Wen would definitely stand on his side, so he was fearless.

When he attacked Xiaohuan Mountain, he also secretly contacted the Nangong family in advance, and even prepared the benefits of the elixir business to connect with several other Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Even after arriving at Tianlan, surrounded by enemies on all sides, he still made full preparations before going to the meeting alone and fighting alone on the Qinhua River.

To say that Luo Chen was a reckless man who only knew how to fight for his life, no one would believe it.

That was not something Luo Chen could do; it was something that people like Wang Yuan would do.

And Chu Kui also mentioned that Luo Chen actually had the opportunity to escape back under the protection of the Core Formation True Persons of the Four Sect Alliance.

So his choice of the Valley of Trapped Sky as the battlefield to fight for his life must have had a reason.

While everyone was deep in thought, Sima Hui Niang pondered and spoke:

"Under the traction of the third-order formation's thunder, whether it's Core Formation or Foundation Establishment, it's hard to survive."

"But the President has a formation disk in his hand, which can allow him to dodge a little. If at a critical moment, he draws thunder to open the cave dwelling gate and then hides inside, it's actually not that dangerous."

When these words came out, everyone couldn't help but suddenly see the light.

It was indeed dangerous outside, but if the gate was opened, it seemed it would be safe?

And the development of things seemed to be just like that.

After Fairy Jueqing returned to Tianlan Xiancheng, she once said personally that the opening of the Soul Transformation cave dwelling gate happened at the same time as the Ten Thousand Thunder Bombardment.

"But all this is just your guess, what if?"

Gu Caiyi was still worried.

Sima Hui Niang shook her head, "We should trust the President, and!"

Speaking of this, she opened her palm, and a strange fluctuation was jumping on it.

Chu Kui blurted out, "Luo Lingxi Gu!"

"Right, it's the Foundation Establishment congratulatory gift you gave me back then, the Luo Lingxi Gu!" Sima Hui Niang nodded slowly, her fist slightly clenched, "After several years of cultivation, I have already cultivated it to the second-order level, and it can already perceive life and death. Now that my Luo Lingxi Gu is still alive, it proves that the President is still alive!"

Seeing the confused look on the others' faces.

Chu Kui immediately explained this strange Gu insect from the Southern Border to everyone.

At the first order, it has a heart-to-heart connection.

After the second order, it perceives life and death.

If it can be cultivated to the third order, it can even turn into the famous Demon Heart Gu of the Southern Border, where after one side dies, the other side can collect all the cultivation of the other's life.

It is truly strange!

After hearing this explanation, everyone's heart and spirit couldn't help but relax.

Luo Chen was not dead, which was undoubtedly the best news.

No wonder, for the past half year, the Luotian Society had been in panic, yet Sima Hui Niang had been as steady as Mount Tai, more calm and composed than anyone else.

Gu Caiyi was both happy and a little jealous at this moment.

Xu Zhen, who had been silent, spoke rarely.

"The President is not here, the President is supreme. President Sima, how should we act now, you might as well speak directly!"

In this hall, Sima Hui Niang's cultivation and strength were not the highest or strongest.

But her status and position were undoubtedly the highest.

Especially over the years, she had been extremely trusted by Luo Chen.

It could be said that she was now the backbone of everyone, and her importance was still above that of the powerful Chu Kui and Wang Yuan.

Facing everyone's expectant gazes, Sima Hui Niang seemed to have a plan in mind.

"Three things!"

"First, digest the Foundation Establishment pills obtained from merit point exchanges on the battlefield to improve the strength of our Luotian Society."

"Second, the war between the upper sects has paused, but the major vassal forces that suffered heavy losses while rushing to the battlefield have become a foregone conclusion. We should seize this opportunity to invade and expand to strengthen the Luotian Society!"

"I don't want the President to see a self-enclosed or even declining Luotian Society when he returns."

"Third, and most importantly, although the President is still alive, we must send people to search, rescue, and support him!"

One by one, item by item, it was truly extremely clear.

While everyone nodded, they also secretly admired Sima Hui Niang for being calm in the face of danger and considering every aspect clearly.

And the team sent to search for and rescue Luo Chen was also quickly decided under Sima Hui Niang's suggestion.

It shouldn't be too many people!

There were too many powerhouses where the relic was located; if the Luotian Society sent too many people, it would instead easily cause trouble.

But, the strength must be strong!

Chu Kui must go. He had fought side by side with Luo Chen for many days and knew some of his habits, so he was the person most likely to find Luo Chen.

Wang Yuan must also go.

Now that he understood the changes in Qi and blood and mastered the three strengths of light, dark, and transformation, Wang Yuan's strength was comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the eighth level.

His body-refining means were even more difficult for ordinary cultivators who were used to fighting with magic tools and treasures to guard against.

With him there, there was no need to worry about small-scale battles.

Finally, Sima Hui Niang carefully selected Min Longyu.

"Elder Min, who possesses the geographical advantage of Danxia and masters the great formation, is enough to deal with any enemy at the Foundation Establishment stage; you are the strongest defensive barrier of our Luotian Society!"

"Under normal circumstances, it is best that you do not leave the Luotian Society for too long or too far. This has also been the President's arrangement for you all along."

"Especially at this moment, I have sent Elder Chu and Hall Master Wang out, so you should stay even more."

Sima Hui Niang's tone paused slightly.

Under everyone's gaze, she stated her choice for non-normal circumstances.

"But compared to the Luotian Society, the President's safety is the most important!"

"Even if the Luotian Society is destroyed, as long as the President is still there, it can be rebuilt. But if we cannot find the President, even if the Luotian Society stands for hundreds of years, it will have no meaning."

"So, I am sending you to accompany Hall Master Wang and Elder Chu to the Thunder Mountain Soul Transformation relic; do you have any problems?"

Min Longyu responded firmly: "No problem!"

Sima Hui Niang swept her gaze over the others, "Do you have any objections to my arrangement?"

Everyone looked at the three people who had been carefully selected: Wang Yuan, the number one combat power of the Luotian Society; Chu Kui, the leader of the rogue cultivators in Tianlan Xiancheng; and Min Longyu, the formation master.

Such a lineup was already the utmost effort of the Luotian Society.

Even if placed outside, it was an extremely powerful existence.

The three of them traveling together was undoubtedly the strongest and most efficient combination for the Luotian Society at present.

For a time, everyone expressed no objections.

Even Gu Caiyi agreed with this arrangement.

"Then now, let everyone perform their duties!"

Sima Hui Niang waved her sleeves and set the policy for the major events.

Just when the outside world was surging.

In the Thunder Jiushan, inside the Soul Transformation relic.

In a hall where clouds and mist were steaming and thunder and lightning were flashing.

An extremely thin man closed his eyes tightly, his body trembling slightly.

On his body, lightning flashed from time to time.

Wisps of electric light, like flowing water, lingered on his body, constantly drilling in and out.

At his feet, things were piled up densely.

Magic tools, magic treasures, talismans, puppets, sword pellets, ores, formation flags... and quite a few storage bag fragments.

No system, no affiliation.

It was impossible to tell what kind of cultivator would possess these miscellaneous things.

Only Luo Chen knew what he had experienced in the past half year.

After triggering the heavenly thunder that day, the majestic thunder that descended completely exceeded his expectations.

With the lightning avoidance means of the Zhouyou Eighteen Formation Disk, it was impossible to vent all the power of the thunder.

Seeing Di Wanyun fall in an instant, he finally took a risk and activated another backup plan.

Drawing thunder to open the ancient gate, he didn't care what level of cultivator it would attract.

Fortunately, he succeeded.

At that moment, he drilled directly into this relic.

However, although he luckily survived, it was not without paying a price.

A portion of the majestic thunder that chased after him poured into his body.

Ordinary thunder would have been fine.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator could still resist it a little.

But such a massive amount of thunder soon formed a qualitative change.

After that, his body was in a dangerous situation of being about to collapse.

Luo Chen tried to use the Cleansing Technique to clear the external thunder.

But it was just a drop in the bucket!

A big ship had taken on water; how many scoops of water could a mere water ladle scoop out?

Helpless, he activated his final means, the Profound Ice Talisman!

In an instant, his whole body was frozen.

He tried to wait for Fairy Jueqing's rescue.

However, after being frozen, Luo Chen felt something was wrong; the thunder power spreading throughout his body was still struggling.

The ice-sealing technique was disintegrating inch by inch, and at the latest, it would not exceed one day before it would continue to ravage his physique.

At this dangerous moment, Luo Chen forced himself into a state of calm.

The entry of thunder power into the body was not unsolvable!

If it were a lightning-root cultivator, they could even absorb the spiritual energy within it to improve their cultivation realm.

He did not have a lightning root, but he had the experience of borrowing thunder power to refine his body.

"If I use this thunder power to open the apertures, perhaps I can consume it?"

"No!"

"The amount is too much; even if I consume a part of it, there will still be a large amount remaining."

"I must use other methods, either vent it out or consume it."

As his thoughts turned, Luo Chen set his sights on his third-order body-refining technique, "Heavenly Peng Transformation"!

If this technique is completed, it is a transformation similar to a demon.

Wang Yuan disdained it.

Luo Chen didn't like it much either.

But "Heavenly Peng Transformation" was not just a transformation combat technique; its essence was to imitate ancient great demons, not taking the path of transformation, but the path of body-refining by tracing the source.

In the Shanhai Realm, ancient great demons rarely took the initiative to transform into human form.

They were often constantly grabbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth, tempering their demon bodies, thereby achieving a state of immortality and rebirth from a drop of blood.

The vision of "Heavenly Peng Transformation" was also like this!

However, because it was incomplete, a part of the specific body-refining method was missing.

It only proposed absorbing the essence blood of three types of demon beasts, each embarking on a different path of body-refining.

These three types of demon beast essence blood were Lei Peng, Golden-Winged Peng, and Yun Tianyang Peng.

The attributes they corresponded to were the thunder, metal, and fire systems.

These three systems were also the three systems of spiritual roots with the strongest combat power in the ordinary cultivation of human cultivators.

If one could display the Heavenly Peng transformation, the combat ability would naturally be an outstanding one of the same level!

Luo Chen had all five spiritual roots, so he could take the paths of the Golden-Winged Peng and the Yun Tianyang Peng.

And when he was at Foundation Establishment, he took the Emperor Flowing Plasma refined from the corpse of a Fierce Fire Cloud Peng, which strictly speaking, meant he had absorbed the essence blood of the Fierce Fire Cloud Peng.

In terms of attributes, he was on the fire-system body-refining path of the Yun Tianyang Peng type.

If he wanted to complete this third-order body-refining cultivation method, he should also complete it in this direction.

Unfortunately, where in the world are there perfect things!

"I have already met the basic condition of essence blood entering the body; it is not impossible to borrow fire to cultivate thunder, and borrow thunder to refine the body!"

"I just need to complete the incomplete cultivation method!"

Time was too short, and the sealing power of the Profound Ice Talisman could only last for one day at most.

Luo Chen had no time to think, and immediately mobilized the system panel.

At that moment, he didn't look at other entries, but pulled down to the bottom where the achievement points were.

【Achievement Points 65】

This number was the most abundant and wealthy achievement point accumulation Luo Chen had ever mastered.

According to Luo Chen's experience, the achievement points consumed for completing a pill formula across levels would exceed ten points.

As for the upper limit, it would be judged according to the level crossed.

Crossing one level, within one hundred points.

Crossing two levels, perhaps it would be over one hundred points, within one thousand points.

It couldn't be described specifically, but his current body-refining realm was 【Blood River Realm 50/100】, which couldn't be considered crossing too many levels.

Besides that, completing a pill formula would also be affected by his personal accumulation of foundation.

The deeper the foundation and the more accumulation, the fewer achievement points would be consumed.

Conversely, the more it would be!

The cultivation method should be the same as the pill formula!

"In body-refining, my involvement is not as good as Wang Yuan's, but compared to ordinary Foundation Establishment true cultivators, it exceeds them too much."

"Whether it's daily body-refining and nourishing Qi, or reading literature and classics, I haven't fallen behind."

"Especially this 'Heavenly Peng Transformation', I have studied it often since I reached Foundation Establishment."

"65 achievement points should be enough to complete it!"

With the crisis ahead, Luo Chen couldn't afford to think too much.

He immediately tried to complete this body-refining method!

Achievement points, like water, began to be consumed constantly.

One point, two points, three points, four points... fifteen, twenty... forty-five!

After consuming forty-five achievement points, the completion progress was finished in an instant.

In an instant, a set of cultivation method formulas was imprinted into his mind like a divine infusion.

The former part was extremely familiar; it was the record before "Heavenly Peng Transformation", which Luo Chen had already memorized by heart.

But the direction of the latter part had changed.

"Electricity runs through a hundred meridians, thunder penetrates the whole body, spiritual energy feeds back, essence blood is born by itself..."

After the body-refining formulas were displayed in detail in his mind, Luo Chen was pleasantly surprised to find that this completed third-order body-refining method was almost tailor-made for him!

Cleansing the marrow, refining the organs and clearing the meridians, and even opening the apertures were all things he had done before.

Now, it was just using the power of thunder to go through it again.

And the subsequent spiritual energy feedback, nourishing a large amount of essence blood, originated from that second-order body-refining method "Qi and Body from the Same Source".

The aperture-opening method involved was also what he had obtained from research while garrisoning the Sixth Mountain.

Besides that, there were some extra special body-refining means.

Plasticizing bones, changing blood, storing spirit, condensing pills, absorbing Qi, forming armor...

By the time it reached the back, it even gave people a feeling of wanting more!

This represented that this body-refining cultivation method still had room for optimization and progress.

Luo Chen glanced at the extra means and found that they were all closely related to everything he had learned.

Plasticizing bones and changing blood originated from the Emperor Flowing Plasma Foundation Establishment, taking materials from demon beast bones, flesh, and blood.

Storing spirit seemed to be because of "Ming Shen Po Sha".

Condensing pills was taken from the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation secret technique after several times of proficiency, and the "Qingyuan Miaodan" method?

The subsequent absorbing Qi and forming armor originated from "Turtle Spirit Covering Armor".

Facing such changes, Luo Chen was naturally pleasantly surprised.

It was his first time using the system to actively complete a cultivation method, and he didn't expect it to be tailor-made by taking materials from everything he had learned, accommodating the strengths of a hundred families.

It could be imagined that if he continued to cultivate according to this set of body-refining cultivation methods.

Even if Luo Chen didn't understand the changes in Qi and blood and didn't take the orthodox path of body-refining, he would still temper a terrifying physique.

Comparable to an ancient great demon!

At this time, it was obviously inappropriate to call this set of body-refining cultivation methods "Heavenly Peng Transformation", so Luo Chen temporarily named it "Heavenly Thunder Body-Refining Method".

The reason for the hasty naming was naturally because time was running out.

Luo Chen couldn't afford to think too much!

As the Profound Ice Talisman melted, the power that sealed the thunder power in his body was also constantly weakening.

He had already begun to use this third-order body-refining method to actively absorb those thunder powers to temper his physique.

First, it was to go through the four steps of cleansing the marrow, refining the organs, and clearing the meridians again!

Ka!

The moment the profound ice melted, the majestic thunder power began to try to destroy Luo Chen's body.

Luo Chen endured the severe pain and cast the Healing Technique and the Spring Breeze Transformation Rain Technique over and over again.

The two medical techniques were used alternately, healing Luo Chen's destroyed body.

In this gap, Luo Chen struggled to go through the path of body-refining again.

The already extremely powerful physique underwent cleansing of the marrow again!

The five Qi in his chest poured out, sweeping the thunder power like an angry dragon, constantly tearing and dividing it.

Although the five Qi constantly dissipated in this process, what remained was undoubtedly more pure and powerful.

The step of electricity running through a hundred meridians was smoother.

Luo Chen even took out the spare top-grade Blood Evil Pills to assist in this step.

Then, it was the aperture-opening that Luo Chen had not yet completed.

Time passed slowly...

I don't know how long it had been, when another crisis arrived.

Luo Chen's spiritual power was running out.

Whether it was the spiritual energy feedback body-refining method derived from "Qi and Body from the Same Source", or drawing thunder power to cast spells to repair his body, it would consume a large amount of his spiritual power.

The originally majestic Qi sea spiritual power was now also about to be stretched thin.

Luo Chen didn't think twice and poured all the top-grade Ascending Dragon Pills he had accumulated in his storage bag into his mouth one by one.

Not only that, he also forcibly cracked the storage bags left by the early and middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

He opened those that could be opened quickly, and forcibly opened those that couldn't.

Even if the storage bags exploded and part of the resources disappeared into the different space, he had no time to care.

Everything was just to collect the elixir resources inside.

Even if it was heaven-and-earth treasures that hadn't been refined into pills, he didn't care.

As long as there was spiritual energy, it was enough!

As for whether his body could withstand so many elixir herbs now, he wasn't worried at all.

With such massive thunder power in his body, there was no need to worry about whether these second-order pills could be refined.

It was in this terrifying cultivation that half a year passed in a flash.

The four steps of cleansing the marrow, refining the organs, and clearing the meridians had long been completed!

Aperture-opening was also achieved as a matter of course.

At this moment, the seven hundred and twenty apertures in his body were shining like stars.

Within them, silver-white light flickered, as if there was thunder power remaining.

Not only that, Luo Chen had also completed a 【Blood Change】.

The old Qi and blood were replaced by the newly born Qi and blood!

Besides that, at the spine behind Luo Chen, a spine bone permeated with silver-white color was constantly vibrating, as if a dragon was stretching.

It was 【Plasticizing Bones】!

Luo Chen couldn't reshape his entire skeleton yet, so he first completed the most important spine bone.

Luo Chen had a feeling that because of the existence of this bone.

His combat ability would be greatly improved!

This was a thunder bone!

Now the hidden dragon was dormant; it wouldn't move, but once it moved, the wind and clouds would change!

"The resources of more than thirty Foundation Establishment storage bags allowed me to reach this step, which is already a rare achievement."

"But, it definitely doesn't stop here!"

It seemed like more than thirty storage bags, but you have to know that this was the accumulation of more than thirty Foundation Establishment true cultivators on the battlefield.

Among them, there was no lack of resources that the other side had exchanged with merit points.

Just the Foundation Establishment pills with violent spiritual energy, he had obtained more than a dozen.

Luo Chen's eyes were extremely bright, and in his pupils, it seemed as if lightning was born.

At this moment, he had already refined the majestic thunder power in his body.

The thunder and lightning permeating the hall were drawn from outside.

He picked up dozens of medicine bottles and poured all the miscellaneous pills inside into his mouth.

Then he took a deep breath!

As if opening a deep abyss mouth, the spiritual energy within a radius of several miles rushed toward him.

A seven-colored Qi dragon was swallowed into his body.

This was the Qi-absorbing body-refining means derived from the Turtle Breathing Technique on "Turtle Spirit Covering Armor"!

After the Qi dragon entered his body, Luo Chen closed his eyes again.

The third-order body-refining cultivation method began to operate.

A surprising scene appeared.

On the surface of his naked skin, pure white armor plates were slowly forming.

The appearance was extremely similar to the covering armor technique on "Turtle Spirit Covering Armor" that Luo Chen had used before.

But looking closely, it seemed a bit different.

Those pure white armor plates looked like turtle shell plates, and also like fish dragon scales.

Human body forming armor, like a demon!

Luo Chen's many years of hard work, accumulating massive foundation, seemed unsystematic and pieced together.

At this moment, after the system's sorting and induction.

He finally embarked on a body-refining path that belonged uniquely to himself!

It could be imagined that when he woke up, how powerful his physique would be!

In the silent hall, the Daoist rested like a mysterious turtle, not breathing.

Silver-white lightning rushed in from outside the hall, crackling, disturbing people's peace, but couldn't wake the sleeping person.

No draft left, the previously set update time cannot be kept.

Sorry, really sorry.

Bowing, apologizing.
