619: The God-Establishing Pill is ready for a breakthrough
Night.
A hundred miles from Illusion Dream Forest, amidst a cluster of mountains, Xie Weilou had opened a cave dwelling on a mountainside.
Inside the cave dwelling.
Xie Weilou set up three defensive arrays and one spirit-gathering array, then took out the pure yang eight trigrams furnace and numerous medicinal ingredients.
His next task was to elevate his pill dao from sixth-grade to seventh-grade.
There was only one set of ingredients for the Yanshen Pill, so he naturally couldn't start refining it immediately, as it was highly likely to waste the precious materials.
"I can try refining seventh-grade Divine Essence Pills first."
Xie Weilou pondered.
Seventh-grade Divine Essence Pills could be used to enhance the power of the Divine Court Realm, and he had plenty of ingredients on him, so he could refine several batches of Divine Essence Pills.
He could also attempt other seventh-grade pills; after all, he had many ingredients and wasn't afraid of consumption. Once he was completely confident, he would then refine the Yanshen Pill.
"..."
Xie Weilou waved his sleeve, selecting nine portions of Divine Essence Pill ingredients.
"Begin."
Xie Weilou didn't hesitate, directly summoning the Taixu Spirit Fire. He then placed a medicinal herb into the Pill Furnace, and the spirit fire enveloped the Pill Furnace, slowly refining it.
Buzz!
The spirit-gathering array was activated, and a vast amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy surged in, enveloping the Pill Furnace.
This first attempt at refining a seventh-grade pill was naturally a slow process, to observe where problems might arise and what areas were insufficient.
With Dragon Old Freak's pill dao notes and Fourth Mr.'s pill dao scroll, his understanding of seventh-grade pills was flawless; the key was practical application.
Refining seventh-grade pills required not only powerful spiritual energy support but also soul support.
With his current spiritual energy and soul, refining them shouldn't pose any major issues.
Seven days.
Passed in a flash.
Inside the cave dwelling, Xie Weilou's clothes were tattered, and he looked somewhat disheveled, but there was no ripple in his eyes; he was still diligently controlling the fire and refining pills.
After refining Divine Essence Pills for seven days, four batches exploded, wasting four sets of materials. However, he also gained much experience from it.
On the fifth batch, he finally succeeded.
The first seventh-grade pill was produced. There was only one, without pill patterns, and of extremely poor quality, barely reaching the low-grade, but it was a success nonetheless.
However, this alone did not meet his requirements; he still needed to improve the quality and quantity of the pills.
Half an hour later.
Buzz!
A powerful force burst out from the Pill Furnace.
"It's done!"
The flame in Xie Weilou's palm dissipated, and he stretched out his hand, two Divine Essence Pills appearing in his grasp.
He examined the two Divine Essence Pills in his hand; this time, the pills were still low-grade.
However, their quality was much better than the previous one, and the number of pills had also increased by one.
"Still not enough, continue refining."
Xie Weilou once again summoned the Taixu Spirit Fire, placed the medicinal ingredients into the Pill Furnace, and continued refining... Half a month later.
Inside the cave dwelling, Xie Weilou was still refining seventh-grade pills.
Compared to his previous slow refining, his speed was now extremely fast, and his technique was incredibly skilled.
During this time, he had completely mastered the refining of Divine Essence Pills. Each batch yielded four to five pills, and one or two of them could even develop pill patterns.
The refining of Divine Essence Pills was now completely without problems. Subsequently, as his pill dao advanced, he could further increase the number of pill patterns and pills.
Currently, he was refining other seventh-grade pills. As the saying goes, master one, master all.
Since the Divine Essence Pills had been successfully refined, refining other seventh-grade pills naturally posed no major issues.
However, he still needed to strive for perfection and ensure that there were no problems in refining other seventh-grade pills.
Another ten days passed.
Xie Weilou's pill dao level advanced by leaps and bounds.
For every seventh-grade pill he refined, each batch yielded at least five pills, and two to three of them consistently had pill patterns.
He had practiced refining various seventh-grade pills, from low-grade to high-grade, and encountered no major issues.
Thus, he could be considered to have truly stepped into the realm of seventh-grade pill dao, but there was still immense room for improvement; he could still strive for perfection.
Advancing to seventh-grade in about a month was quite good.
"The time is almost right; now to refine the Yanshen Pill."
Xie Weilou waved his sleeve, taking out all the ingredients for the Yanshen Pill.
He looked at the ingredients before him, not being overly cautious, but instead normally placing them into the Pill Furnace.
With his current pill dao, refining the Yanshen Pill was effortless; everything proceeded as usual.
Buzz!
The Taixu Spirit Fire enveloped the Pill Furnace, rapidly melting the medicinal ingredients inside... One hour later.
The Pill Furnace vibrated, and a grey light burst out from within, accompanied by a terrifying soul power and a rich aroma.
"..."
Xie Weilou calmly extended his hand, and five grey Yanshen Pills flew out of the Pill Furnace.
He examined the five pills before him; four of them had three pill patterns, which was quite good.
Over a month of hard work was for this short hour.
However, the improvement in pill dao was a lifelong benefit, endlessly useful.
Xie Weilou took out a jade bottle, placed the five Yanshen Pills inside, and exhaled a turbid breath: "A month of hard work, a perfect outcome."
With that, he put away the Pill Furnace and flew out of the cave dwelling.
Next was the matter of breaking through. His breakthrough required transcending a tribulation, so he naturally had to go outside.
Not long after.
Xie Weilou entered a valley. He set up several arrays in the valley and then summoned the ten thousand souls banner; this breakthrough could not afford any problems.
After completing all this.
Xie Weilou sat cross-legged on the ground. He took out and consumed several pills, bringing his state to its optimum.
Half an hour passed.
His state reached its peak.
"Prepare to break through!"
Xie Weilou took out a Yanshen Pill. He first consumed one, then circulated the Nirvana Sutra.
Boom!
His Dantian vibrated, a golden power surged skyward, and the Six Profound Aspects appeared simultaneously, standing above.
The path of the Great Dao lies in body refinement, spirit refinement, and dao refinement.
The Divine Court Realm is the process of spirit refinement.
Advancing to the first realm of Divine Court is called Life Spring.
The divine soul of an ordinary person has no precise form; it exists within the body, using the body as a vessel.
However, upon advancing to Divine Court, the divine soul takes on a form: a spring, like a source or spring water. The size of the spring depends on the strength of the soul.
Most cultivators' Life Springs are not a massive spring, but a tiny spring eye.
To evolve the divine soul into a Life Spring, mere soul enhancement is not enough. Instead, it requires the Profound Manifestation to merge with one's own soul and mutually deduce, thereby greatly enhancing the divine soul.
In the Dragon Transformation Realm, the Profound Manifestation developing a divine soul was precisely for the purpose of merging with one's own soul and mutually deducing when advancing to Divine Court.
"..."
Xie Weilou glanced at his Six Profound Aspects. He closed his eyes and quickly formed hand seals.
The pill he ingested was instantly refined, and a vast power erupted, directly entering his Dantian and divine soul. His soul power completely burst forth.
Buzz!
Among the Six Profound Aspects, the Four Great Xuanxiang simultaneously formed hand seals.
Their soul power surged skyward, merging with Xie Weilou's soul, constantly deducing and enhancing it, causing it to transform into the shape of a spring...
