Chapter 138: Marrow Refining Grandmaster

"Altar, how much fortune is needed to deduce 'No-Mind No-Thought'?"

"Three feet!"

"Good, proceed with the deduction!"

"As you wish!"

In the practice room, Yin Qi communicated with the altar with his mind.

As the red fortune on the altar dropped to two feet, he then fell into a very wonderful state, as if he had lost control, and actually started practicing fist techniques by himself.

Human Emperor Fist, True Martial Fist, Eight Desolations Divine Fist, Primordial Chaos Palm, True Essence Steel Palm, etc.

One fist technique after another, palm technique, and even finger technique, leg technique, all kinds of martial arts were at his fingertips, and he performed them one by one.

As he performed the fist techniques, Yin Qi's primordial spirit also quietly exited his shell.

Floating in mid-air, sitting cross-legged.

Although the primordial spirit had exited the shell, the physical body seemed to have been born with some kind of instinct and could practice martial arts autonomously.

"This is No-Mind No-Thought!"

Yin Qi suddenly realized.

This is the cultivation state that countless people dream of.

In this state, practicing martial arts is several times, or even ten times, more effective than in the ordinary state, and it can coordinate the physical body and the primordial spirit, allowing both to develop without interfering with each other.

Yin Qi hurriedly calmed his mind and carefully experienced this state.

……

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was late at night.

Practicing in this state, Yin Qi had already continued for seven or eight hours.

Fortunately, he had taken the Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill and Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste in advance, which gave him enough energy to support his continuous practice; otherwise, such high-intensity cultivation would have directly squeezed his life potential.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the practice room, the strong wind raged, blowing Yin Qi's clothes to flutter.

His whole body's blood and Qi were boiling, like a burning furnace, radiating scorching heat.

Suddenly, the heat on his body retracted, all the pores on his body closed in an instant, and the exuberant essence, Qi, and spirit also collapsed, converging into the bone marrow, causing the bone marrow to vibrate inexplicably.

This is Marrow Refining!

An enlightenment surged into his heart, and Yin Qi's primordial spirit suddenly returned to his shell, opening his eyes.

He didn't expect that while comprehending the 'No-Mind No-Thought' state, he would also complete the breakthrough and become a Marrow Refining Grandmaster.

This was nearly two months earlier than he had expected.

But thinking about it carefully, it was normal.

In the No-Mind No-Thought state, the effect was more than ten times that of the ordinary state, and he had taken two secret medicines, the Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill and Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste, which completed the final breakthrough.

Yin Qi didn't stop, took an Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill, and continued to practice.

He slowly closed his eyes and entered the No-Mind No-Thought state.

The physical body was practicing, and the primordial spirit was also practicing the *Past Amitabha Sutra*, neither was delayed.

…………

The next day.

Yin Qi changed into brocade clothes and went out with two attendants and four guards.

All day, he was shopping in various markets.

All kinds of top-grade jade and rare materials, as well as various rare spiritual medicines and alchemy furnaces.

The one thousand taels of red gold and ten thousand taels of white silver given by Emperor Gan, as well as the one hundred and fifty taels of red gold given by Yuan Fei, were all squandered, just exchanged for a cart of goods.

This was nearly thirty thousand taels of silver.

In many places, the annual tax revenue of a county might not be that much.

Yin Qi pulled a cart of goods back to the mansion, which naturally couldn't be hidden from others, but no one cared.

It was just a cart of goods.

Even the two attendants and four guards didn't know the value of this cart of goods.

Otherwise, Yin Tiancheng would probably have run over directly to scold him for being a prodigal son.

It was also fortunate that this was Yujing City, not only the capital of the Great Gan but also the center of the Great Thousand World, so there were items from all over the world, and he could buy all the materials needed for the array and alchemy.

If it were elsewhere, don't even think about it.

Although the two attendants and four guards were "his own people", it was hard to say whose people they actually were, so for the sake of confidentiality, he negotiated with the shopkeepers himself.

After returning to Yaoguang Courtyard, Yin Qi tidied up a side room in the back courtyard as an alchemy room.

Next was Marrow Refining, he needed pills.

Then he waited until the second half of the night, after everyone was asleep, before setting up a high-level Spirit Gathering Array in the back courtyard.

Hum! Hum!

The moment the high-level Spirit Gathering Array was set up, Yin Qi felt the surrounding space humming, and then countless spiritual Qi surged in.

The concentration of spiritual Qi in the back courtyard increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, it was already four or five in the morning, everyone was sleeping soundly, and because they didn't use spiritual Qi to cultivate, people in the Yang God world were not sensitive to the flow of spiritual Qi, so no one discovered the anomaly of the Yin Duke Mansion.

As the sun rose and billions of rays of light were cast down, the Spirit Gathering Array finally stopped gathering the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Standing in the back courtyard, Yin Qi closed his eyes slightly, feeling the concentration of spiritual Qi around him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Not bad, the concentration of spiritual Qi has increased fifteen times."

This was still because the materials for the array were not good enough; otherwise, it could have been increased to twenty times.

However, a fifteen-fold concentration of spiritual Qi was enough for now.

………

Days passed one by one.

Yin Qi stayed indoors, either cultivating or refining pills.

In the Duke Mansion, he was still a transparent person, which surprised everyone in the Duke Mansion.

Logically speaking, after having the status of a legitimate son, shouldn't Yin Qi come out to show off?

Or cause trouble and challenge the status of the two legitimate sons?

Xinwu Pavilion.

Yin Tiancheng asked: "Uncle Chen, what has Thirteenth been doing these days?"

Uncle Chen replied: "Thirteenth Young Master stays indoors, cultivating bitterly all day, it is said that he doesn't even easily let the two personal maids enter the back courtyard, and moreover..."

Yin Tiancheng looked up and said: "And what."

Uncle Chen said: "And, Thirteenth Young Master seems to be refining pills."

"Refining pills!?"

Yin Tiancheng was stunned.

Isn't refining pills the job of Daoists?

Uncle Chen nodded: "Refining pills. It's just that I don't know if it's true refining or just playing around."

Yin Tiancheng touched his three-inch green beard and said curiously: "This Thirteenth is really mysterious. If it weren't for you, Uncle Chen, saying that his primordial spirit and physical body are compatible, I would have suspected that he was possessed by some Ghost Immortal."

As he said, Yin Qi was his son after all, and he had some talent in reading, so he had actually been paying attention in secret.

Therefore, he could be sure that Yin Qi had been hovering at the entrance of martial arts before.

But after running out for three months, he actually cultivated to the Viscera Refining peak, and his cultivation had caught up with his own; this was simply seeing a ghost.

Thinking of Yin Qi refining pills again, he couldn't help but ponder: "Uncle Chen, do you think that during those three months, Bai Ziyue used pills to forcibly raise Thirteenth to this level?"

He thought about it, and this was the only guess.

Such pills that raise cultivation are not uncommon in the Great Thousand World, just relatively scarce.

The Taishang Dao even has the Heavenly Origin Divine Pill that allows one to achieve the Human Immortal body, let alone raising one to the Viscera Refining peak.

Bai Ziyue, as one of the Eight Great Demon Immortals and a member of the Bai family of Yuantu, it is entirely possible for him to get some spiritual pills that raise cultivation from the Zhengang Sect.

The only thing to worry about is what Bai Ziyue's intentions are?

Is it just pure appreciation, or is there an ulterior motive?

In fact, when he received Yang Tong's tip-off letter, he was both surprised and angry.

But as Emperor Gan bestowed generous rewards, he calmed down.

Since the Emperor didn't pursue it, what was he pursuing?

He asked himself that he hadn't treated Yin Qi badly, so he thought Yin Qi wouldn't do anything to let him down. ===== CHAPTER 139 =====
