Chapter 44

Cui Dan and the old servant waited outside the door for half a day before Qian Chen's nurtured primordial pill gradually reached the heat for taking out the pill. Suddenly, a thunderclap sounded in the Xuanguan, the chaos was suddenly torn apart, and dozens of spiritual Qi were born, stained with the Dao mystery of the primordial pill.

The primordial pill jumped out of the pass from the Xuanguan and hung behind Qian Chen's head, becoming one with the true Qi, just like an internal pill outside the body.

This primordial pill only needs to connect with true Qi, and it immediately hangs down green true Qi to bless Qian Chen.

Between raising his hands and feet, with a single thought, the power of magic spells or magic treasures is dozens of times greater than before, chasing after those who have achieved Core Formation. At this moment, with the external pill on his body, Qian Chen's cultivation base is equivalent to a side-path cultivator of the seventh-rank Core Formation, and in this world, he can be called—possessing high magic power.

Although this was his first time refining pills, he really didn't feel that there was any difficulty in this alchemy path. The thousand-year-old difficult barriers recorded in the Geng Yuanzi Pill Scripture were easily passed by Qian Chen.

Therefore, the primordial pill refined this time also exerted the essence of the Gang and Sha Qi to the strongest, reaching the quality of the seventh rank.

This primordial pill is not like other herbal spiritual pills. It is the core primordial pill of cultivation, like the core of a cultivator's life, so the grade follows the grade of Core Formation, and it is not the same system as the spiritual pills taken.

With the blessing of the primordial pill, Qian Chen refined various primordial Qi internally, using the Xuanguan as a pill furnace. Hundreds of primordial Qi combined with each other. Qian Chen, according to the pill formula and the nature of the primordial Qi, melted them together in groups of several or dozens. His cultivation base had improved greatly, and the step he thought was somewhat difficult actually passed so easily.

When the primordial Qi in the Xuanguan combined and condensed into dozens of strands, Qian Chen shouted: "Condense!"

Only a crackling sound was heard in the Xuanguan. Qian Chen waved his hand, and dozens of spiritual pills fell out of the Xuanguan in the void, condensing into pill pills of various colors and sizes, emitting moving and miraculous fragrance. Qian Chen took out the small red-skinned gourd, stepped forward, and collected most of the spiritual pills.

"I first refined the external Qi primordial pill, and my cultivation base is not worse than before. The subsequent one-breath pill refining was even more relaxed than I imagined. I actually refined seventeen types of pills in one furnace, with more than ninety pills. This kind of pill refined from primordial Qi has no impurities and is the most pure. It is the supreme grade among pills. Originally, refining pills with primordial Qi is the most difficult in terms of materials, but it allowed me to cleverly transform miscellaneous Qi into chaos and differentiate it when I refined the primordial pill with Gang and Sha Qi."

"Are the miscellaneous Qi in the Gang and Sha Qi trivial?"

"Ordinary primordial Qi has long been transformed. Many of the miscellaneous Qi that can exist in the Gang and Sha Qi are even more precious than the Gang and Sha Qi itself, but they are too scarce and difficult to use. It's like the tiny, imperceptible gold in purple copper..."

"The Supreme Pill Scripture is truly mysterious..."

Qian Chen was happy at first, and then he hurriedly recalled the subtle process of the primordial pill refining, which was like a cultivator's Core Formation. After refining this primordial pill, it was equivalent to Qian Chen having achieved Core Formation once, which was infinitely beneficial. Only then did he know why there was no Core Formation quality lower than the first rank in the Supreme true transmission—if one had simulated Core Formation a hundred or eighty times in the pill furnace, and could still have the pill fly away and waste the great medicine.

The successor of the Supreme Dao should apologize to the Dao Ancestor with death!

Other practitioners only have one chance in their life, and there is no regret after the pill is formed... Sigh! We of the Supreme Dao have hundred-year Core Formation, thousand-time simulation... When others are bumping into opportunities, the Supreme Dao—only practice makes perfect!

"It's too hateful!" Qian Chen shook his head and said: "No wonder it can't be said!"

"Think about it, I'm angry myself! How can the Supreme Dao be so excessive? Is it amazing that the Ancestor opened up the Golden Pill Great Dao? Hiding such a hand..."

Qian Chen smiled, but his hands didn't stop. While familiarizing himself with the external Qi primordial pill, he restored his true Qi cultivation base. After his spirit for refining pills recovered more than half, he waved his hand to release the Qi manifestation suppressed by the Heavenly Luo San. Immediately, an indescribable miraculous fragrance drifted out of the pill room. Cui Dan, who was standing outside the door, standing on tiptoe and looking into the courtyard, and Wu Bo, who was holding his little master tightly so that he would not be indecent, both smelled this fragrance that made people's spirits shake, their true Qi warm, and their cultivation base unconsciously refined.

Cui Dan's face revealed a strange light, and he said excitedly: "There really is a high-level expert refining pills... This pill smell... Bah! The sensing pill sold to me by the Daoist academy is really a defective product. I lost a lot!"

"Young Master, demeanor... demeanor!" The old servant persuaded him bitterly: "Don't lose the face of the Cui clan."

At this time, the person Qian Chen had been waiting for finally came. But he saw a black shadow crossing the sky, and seven red-black rays of light, wandering like flying stars, and also like electric light and sparks, were about to drill into Qian Chen's courtyard. Qian Chen suppressed the manifestation of the Heavenly Luo San and only unfolded the Seven Sha Banner to protect himself.

A thick black fog suddenly descended, covering the small house, with seven strands of Sha Qi circling within.

The seven red-black rays of light just struck once, shattering the rest of the rooms in the courtyard and scaring away the monsters and spirits outside the house, only the inner room where Qian Chen was was firmly protected by the black fog.

Someone in the distance laughed: "You are the thief who killed my junior brother! Seeing that you have merit in refining pills, offer the spiritual pill and bind yourself to plead guilty. I might be able to spare you once! Otherwise, is the Meishan sect so easy to bully? I will make sure your head doesn't stay!"

"So that tiger-head banner that was neither Buddhist nor Daoist that day was your junior brother!" Qian Chen sneered: "He didn't know life from death, and you are not a good person either. It is just right to kill you both together, making a pair, so that he won't be lonely on the road to the Yellow Springs, which is very pitiful!"

Qian Chen flipped his right hand, and the Dragon Sparrow Ring was extremely fast. With just one scoop, it collected the seven sparks.

Then the Heavenly Luo San closed, and a clear Qi net instantly expanded for several miles, and then closed downwards, covering several miles in radius. As Qian Chen closed the umbrella, the clear Qi closed, and Cui Dan and the old servant only felt their bodies lighten, and the clear Qi bypassed them. Only a black shadow not far away was forced out by the clear Qi. As the clear Qi closed, it had no power to resist and was instantly collected into the Heavenly Luo San in Qian Chen's hand.

Qian Chen shook the Heavenly Luo San and instantly refined this person to death.

"Just a cultivator of Penetrating the Law, not even refining the internal pill of the side paths... and he dared to find trouble with me!"

Cui Dan and the old servant saw all this happen in an instant. In just two sentences, a left-path monster with not weak cultivation was collected and refined, without any power to fight back. They couldn't help but doubt, how could this Meishan left path be so ignorant of life and death, and dare to come rashly without knowing the cultivation level of the high-level expert in the room?

Heaven pity, this person first went to the fox grave, and based on the clues, inferred that Qian Chen's cultivation would definitely not exceed Penetrating the Law. Coupled with the fact that he calculated that the enemy was consuming spirit to refine pills, he thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and could earn a furnace of spiritual pills for nothing. Who would have thought that in just two months, Qian Chen's shot was already the power of Core Formation.

The old servant's eyes were dull, and he muttered in his heart: "How can this Guangling Commandery be so deep?"

"How could the young master meet such a high-level expert just by walking around? With this cultivation level, it is not inferior to the true disciples of the Daoist sects. We were not polite outside the door. If this person wants to blame us, how can I protect the young master? I hope the master still has some face..."

Cui Dan was just in a frenzy of meeting a high-level expert, and immediately straightened his clothes and bowed respectfully: "Cui Dan of the Qinghe Cui clan, I have met the senior."

Qian Chen coughed, cleared his throat, and lowered his voice to cover up the overly bright voice of a young man, saying: "So it is the Cui young master, truly outstanding... Forgive the old man for not entertaining you well, please come in!"

Cui Dan was overjoyed and immediately held the gift himself and went in to pay his respects.

He walked into the room and saw Qian Chen's overly young face, which he didn't find strange. He only saw the more than twenty spiritual pills suspended in mid-air in front of Qian Chen, supported by a cloud of Qi, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"This pill... why is it so pure?"

"As if not seeing any irritable Qi..."

The old servant quietly pulled his sleeve and said: "Young Master, this is a pill of primordial Qi, a spiritual pill refined by a high-level expert by collecting the primordial Qi of heaven and earth. It is the purest and the rarest, and there is no pill poison. Without a great cultivator of Core Formation, one cannot refine pills like this. It is not the herbal spiritual medicine that the young master usually sees..."

The Qi of the spiritual pill turned into a spiritual fungus to support the pill, and the fungus Qi took root on a cloud, which was a miracle that Cui Dan had never seen in his life.

Qian Chen sat cross-legged, with a cloud supporting him in front of him. The spiritual pills of various colors on the cloud in front of him were either supported by the pill Qi turning into spiritual fungus, or moving and turning, or turning into spiritual light, or as quiet as beautiful jade, or the pill Qi was crowded like a clear spring...

Qian Chen casually picked up a spiritual pill like beautiful jade and crushed it and sprinkled it on the ground.

Cui Dan couldn't help but let out an exclamation, but he saw the lecher monster hidden in his eyes, the ear canal god in his ear, as well as the gold and silver children, camphor-willow gods, flower maidens... and white-haired mice, magpies, and other spiritual things that had fled away but were hiding nearby and peeking, all swarmed up and ran to Qian Chen's feet to hold the jade dust and eat it.

Qian Chen laughed: "I collected the Sha Qi of this courtyard to refine pills, which also ruined a fate of yours. Just use this to compensate!"

Several monsters bowed carefully, and those strange little beasts also stood up and bowed... Cui Dan and Wu Bo were also enlightened and secretly said: "No wonder the high-level expert stayed here to refine pills. It turns out that there is a Yin Sha vein under this desolate house?"
