Chapter 690: Earth Fire Body Refining

He Pingsheng was worried that his own cultivation wouldn't be enough to pique others' interest, which would lead to many complications later.

After all, the other party was a large sect.

So he reported Zhou Qingmei's cultivation instead.

Facts proved that He Pingsheng had thought wrong.

Although the True Fire Immortal Sect was also called an Immortal Sect, it wasn't considered a large power; let alone having a Body Integration stage powerhouse in the sect, they didn't even have a Void Refinement stage one.

Even the Great Elder with the highest cultivation was only at the eleventh layer of the Soul Transformation stage.

Just one layer higher than He Pingsheng.

"Please, please, please... please come in quickly!"

"Follow me!"

The Great Elder of the True Fire Immortal Sect personally led He Pingsheng into the Immortal Sect: "Fellow Daoist He is famous throughout the Zhu Que Imperial City; in fact, I have heard of you for a long time. To be able to see such a legendary heaven-gifted talent as you today, if anyone should say they are fortunate for three lifetimes, it should be me, True Fire!"

The Great Elder's name was True Fire Daoist.

He Pingsheng smiled and said: "You are too polite!"

As the few of them spoke, they arrived at a reception hall within the True Fire Immortal Sect.

They sat down according to host and guest!

Cup after cup of spirit tea was served.

True Fire Daoist said with a chuckle: "I have also read the jade slip; Fellow Daoist Mo Sang said that the honored guest wants to borrow the Earth Fire within our sect?"

He Pingsheng nodded: "Yes... I am refining my body with fire, and I am lacking a fifth-tier fire!"

"However, Fellow Daoist True Fire, please rest assured, this Daoist will not take advantage of your True Fire Sect for nothing!"

"That is not the most important thing!" True Fire Daoist took a deep breath, looked at He Pingsheng and asked: "I would like to ask, Fellow Daoist He, if you refine your body with the fire in our True Fire Immortal Sect, will you end up swallowing the fire in our sect?"

"This fire is the foundation upon which our True Fire Immortal Sect stands!"

True Fire Daoist had a worried expression.

He Pingsheng said: "Fellow Daoist, do not worry; when refining the body, one uses the True Fire to temper oneself, not to swallow the True Fire. The fire will certainly suffer some consumption, but adding some fire-attribute origin back into it later can still replenish it!"

"On this point, you do not need to worry!"

"It will not cause much harm to the fire itself!"

"Oh!" Hearing He Pingsheng say this, True Fire Daoist finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Fine, fine, fine... then there is no problem!"

After speaking, he still looked at He Pingsheng with eager eyes.

He Pingsheng said: "A mere elixir, a small token of my respect!"

A porcelain bottle was sent by He Pingsheng to True Fire Daoist.

True Fire Daoist swept his spiritual sense over the porcelain bottle and was immediately shocked: "This... is this actually a Nascent-Shedding Pill?"

"And it's top-tier?"

The Nascent-Shedding Pill was an extremely precious elixir for Soul Transformation stage cultivators.

It wasn't rare, but its value was exceptionally high.

The key was that this thing was top-tier.

A top-tier Nascent-Shedding Pill, as long as you weren't completely devoid of wisdom, could definitely guarantee your advancement to the Void Refinement realm.

Although True Fire Daoist was still at the eleventh layer of the Soul Transformation stage, he would eventually need this Nascent-Shedding Pill sooner or later.

"Fine, fine, fine... I will not stand on ceremony for this Nascent-Shedding Pill!"

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist He!"

Next, after the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, True Fire Daoist led He Pingsheng to the location of the fire within the sect.

This was an Earth Fire.

On the peak of the back mountain, there was a deep pit a hundred zhang in circumference, and it was bottomless.

Inside the deep pit, majestic flames were burning.

Seeing this deep pit reminded He Pingsheng of the 【Heavenly Fire Relic】 at Mount Doumi back then.

Very similar!

Only, the flames in this deep pit were even more ferocious than the flames in the Heavenly Fire Relic.

"You two, just wait for me here!" He Pingsheng looked at Zhou Qingmei and True Person Xihu.

The two nodded.

He Pingsheng jumped directly into the flames.

Refining the body with crimson flames.

His body was instantly submerged in the raging inferno.

The deeper he went, the more intense the flames, and the better the effect of the body refining.

By the time he was submerged deep into the fire pit, the clothes on his body had already been burned away; He Pingsheng was stark naked, beginning to temper his body amidst the infinite flames.

Inside his body, the 【Fire-Bathing Golden Body Art】 began to circulate.

He Pingsheng quickly felt it; the body refining that he had been unable to improve no matter what at Mount Brother Gu Song was finally beginning to improve again.

Time flowed slowly!

One day!

Two days!

One year!

Two years!

One day, three years later, He Pingsheng's body refining finally broke through to the tenth layer of the Soul Transformation chapter.

It caught up with his cultivation.

Fire-attribute body refining and poison-attribute body refining were finally on par.

Moreover, after dual-attribute body refining, He Pingsheng's body toughness and strength had also improved significantly.

Much stronger than single-attribute body refining.

Now that he had maxed out his body's strength and toughness, whether he could go and fuse with that 【Nine Heavens Profound Fire】 was hard to say.

Let's try it later!

Boom...

He Pingsheng transformed into a beam of light and flew out of the fire pit, and the moment he flew out, a Daoist robe appeared on his body.

He didn't come out naked.

"Young Master, you succeeded? Congratulations!" Zhou Qingmei looked at He Pingsheng, her face full of excitement.

He Pingsheng said: "Succeeded, but there's nothing worth congratulating; let's go!"

After bidding farewell to True Fire Daoist, He Pingsheng directly piloted the Silver Han Sky Shuttle across the sky, heading toward Mount Brother Gu Song.

Because the Silver Han Sky Shuttle was very fast, and this time they were flying around the Imperial City, there was no need to stop in the Imperial City, so it only took about half a day for the few of them to return to Mount Brother Gu Song.

Three years later, Mount Brother Gu Song was still the same as before.

However, it was much livelier.

"Fellow Daoist Long Zhe!" A woman wearing a cyan Daoist robe looked at He Pingsheng and bowed to her.

He Pingsheng had seen this woman before; she was one of the cultivators who had searched for the Nine Heavens Profound Fire with the four of them back then: Biyun Xianzi Longyue.

After Biyun Xianzi Longyue was killed by Zhou Qingmei, she escaped with the help of a 【Substitute Puppet】.

Later, she heard that He Pingsheng had rebuilt the mountain gate at Mount Brother Gu Song, so she had always wanted to join; later, He Pingsheng agreed, and this woman joined.

However, when she joined, He Pingsheng was not in the sect.

"Young Master..."

"Young Master!"

Seeing He Pingsheng return, Hao Cang and Zhou Qingmei's clone also hurriedly walked over.

"Talk inside!" He Pingsheng pointed to the main hall, then invited Zhou Qingmei's clone and Hao Cang into the hall.

In the main hall, there were only these three.

"How is it?" He Pingsheng looked at Hao Cang with anticipation: "Did you find the people?"

"Replying to Young Master, we found them!" Hao Cang cupped his hands: "After the two of us went to the Undying Imperial Domain where the human race resides, we searched while asking around; about half a year later, we found two of them!"

As he spoke, Hao Cang also took out the jade slip with the list.

He Pingsheng was filled with excitement: "Who is it?"

Hao Cang said: "One is the Second Lady, Su Zhenzhen... the other is your son, He Tianya!"

"Both of them have ascended from the lower realm to the Spirit Realm, and now they have both reached the Soul Transformation stage cultivation!" ===== CHAPTER 691 =====
