Knowing how difficult it was to condense a spirit rune, Mu Wan was very worried about Yan Chutian. It would be good if he could succeed in condensing the spirit rune. It would allow him to have shocking strength at the first level of the Elixir and surpass his peers. But if he failed, the consequences would be disastrous!
But no matter how worried she was, there was nothing she could do. Yan Chutian had already started condensing the spirit rune, and once he started, he could not stop. The only outcome was success or failure.
In the depths of the cave, Yan Chutian was silent and focused. At this moment, his eyes were still closed, and he was looking inside his dantian. He was looking at the Elixir that was just born and was still a little tender.
Next, he was going to condense two spirit runes on this newborn Elixir. Since he was going to condense two spirit runes, Yan Chutian naturally knew how difficult it would be.
But even if he knew, he had to do it. Only by condensing two or more spirit runes would he have the strength to fight against those peak Saints at the fourth level of the Elixir.
Moreover, he had prepared for a long time, so he was not without confidence. He had spent nearly a month and a half to prepare for condensing two spirit runes at the same time!
"Huff …"
Exhaling lightly, Yan Chutian slowly circulated his spirit energy. Then, he combined it with the things he had prepared and started condensing the spirit runes.
During the process of condensing the spirit runes, time was of the essence again. In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed. During this half a day, Yan Chutian did not dare to relax at all. In fact, he became more and more serious. The closer it was to the end, the more he could not afford to make any mistakes. Otherwise, all his previous efforts would be wasted and he would fail miserably.
During this half a day, no matter how careful Yan Chutian was, there were several times where he almost failed. During these times, Yan Chutian's meticulous preparations played a role and helped him survive the failures.
So half a day later, success or failure would depend on this one move. He had to completely condense the two spirit runes on the Elixir!
This was the final step and also the most important step. All the previous refinement was to make the spirit runes appear on the Elixir, and this was the final step.
With a heavy heart, Yan Chutian finally began to condense the spirit tattoo on the elixir. Under his best control, a sword-shaped spirit tattoo slowly condensed on a certain part of the elixir. However, he had only condensed half of the sword mark when the unconcealable will of collapse surged out like a tide. It was impossible to stop.
This scene also made Yan Chutian's expression turn ugly. However, how could he give up so easily? He immediately clenched his teeth and persevered, forcibly stabilizing the spirit inscriptions and continuing to condense them.
However, even though he barely managed to hold on, the feeling of collapse continued to spread. This caused Yan Chutian's expression to become increasingly ugly. It seemed that he had taken things for granted. Even though he was Yan Chutian, and had a foundation of experience, he could not defy the heavens in every aspect.
If he couldn't finish condensing two spirit inscriptions at the same time, how could he condense the second one?!
"Damn it!"
Yan Chutian clenched his teeth and shouted. He was still unwilling to give up and persisted bitterly. His perseverance was indeed useful as it slowed down the spirit tattoo's collapse. However, there was a limit to it. If this continued, failure would be the only outcome.
This possibility made Yan Chutian feel helpless. Even though he knew that he had taken things for granted, the price to pay was too high. If he failed to condense the spirit tattoo, he would not be able to condense another spirit tattoo within a short period of time. Moreover, he would also suffer from a backlash and damage to his Dantian for a long period of time.
All in all, the greater the advantage he would gain if he succeeded, the more severe the consequences he would have to bear if he failed. Everything in the world was relative. Even he could not avoid it.
However, knowing that the consequences of failure were unimaginable, Yan Chutian could only watch as the spirit tattoo collapsed. The tattoo lines that he had tried his best to condense continued to collapse inch by inch. In the blink of an eye, less than half of the sword-shaped spirit tattoo was left.
After a few breaths of time, even someone as determined as Yan Chutian was on the verge of despair. At the same time, he gave up his last feeble effort. He knew that he was going to fail miserably this time.
However, just when Yan Chutian felt that he had failed, a wisp of pure aura quietly spread out from the second-grade Mysterious Yang Qi Kindling that had been silent for a long time and integrated into the elixir.
With the integration of this aura, Yan Chutian was pleasantly surprised to find that the spirit tattoo had stopped collapsing. Instead, it automatically showed signs of condensing. Starting from the origin where only the head was left, the spirit tattoo slowly condensed and took shape.
Seeing this scene, Yan Chutian did not hesitate. Overjoyed, he hurriedly continued to condense the spirit tattoo.
However, the sudden reversal of the situation also made the next condensation of the spirit tattoo seem to be out of Yan Chutian's control. Even though the spirit rune was still in the shape of a sword, it was only a rough outline. There were mysterious runes that Yan Chutian didn't know about appearing on the sword blade. They carried a dense ancient aura that would cause one to feel intimidated.
Even though the appearance of these mysterious lines made Yan Chutian feel that there was no harm, this was not his intention at all, so how could he stay calm?
Immediately after, the second spirit tattoo was the same. This time, there was no need for him to condense the spirit tattoo. At the beginning of the condensation, a wisp of aura surged and integrated into the Dantian.
This time, even the shape of the spirit tattoo changed greatly. The original square cauldron turned into a three-legged golden cauldron. On the body of the cauldron, there were also mysterious and ancient lines emerging. These lines were different from the lines on the sword-shaped spirit tattoo, but they obviously came from the same source!
This strange scene completely overshadowed Yan Chutian's joy of successfully condensing two spirit tattoos. This was because he knew in his heart that if not for the sudden strange change, the condensation of his spirit tattoo would only end in failure. How could he have succeeded?
Yan Chutian then tried to activate the spirit tattoo. However, activating two spirit tattoos was not a problem at all. Just like the spirit tattoos he had mastered in his previous life, those mysterious lines were just lines and would not affect him in the slightest.
Under such circumstances, even if Yan Chutian still believed that these mysterious lines must have a special meaning, he could only leave it be for the time being. Otherwise, what else could he do? He had never heard of these lines before. He had never even heard of anyone being able to interfere with the condensation of spirit tattoos.
All in all, this cultivation could be considered a success, and he had fulfilled all his expectations. At least, he had condensed two spirit tattoos, which already allowed Yan Chutian to have a lot of confidence in facing those top Holy Sons who were around the fourth level of Elixir.
Moreover, with these two spirit tattoos, his cultivation speed could also be increased by a lot. After all, almost all the practitioners' condensation of spirit tattoos was far from being able to keep up with their cultivation speed. None of them were like him, who had actually reversed the situation.
Then, when Yan Chutian walked out of the cave residence where he had been in seclusion for almost two months, Mu Wan, who had been watching him for a long time, immediately came up to him and asked in a worried tone that both of them could understand.
"How is it?!"
Seeing that Mu Wan was full of worry, even if Yan Chutian was still worried about his sudden strange situation, he could not bear to let her worry. Therefore, he smiled faintly and slowly opened his palm at an angle where only the two of them could see.
"After going through so much danger, I finally succeeded."
Looking at the two spirit tattoos that disappeared in Yan Chutian's palm, Mu Wan let out a sigh of relief. Then, she glared fiercely at Yan Chutian and said mercilessly, "Why are you so impulsive! It's good that you succeeded, but if you failed, have you thought of how serious the consequences would be?! "
"Haha … this is something that can't be helped. If you want to compete with those top Holy Sons as soon as possible, how can you not take some risks?"
"Hmph, don't you still have me? At most, I'll go and snatch that slot back! "
Mu Wan snorted. However, before she finished speaking, her pretty face could not help but turn red. That was because her words sounded too ambiguous. Even a blockhead would be able to hear it.
And sure enough, when her beautiful eyes secretly looked over, she saw that Yan Chutian was looking at her with his mouth wide open in shock. This immediately made Mu Wan's pretty face burn even more. She hurriedly looked away and said, "No matter what, you have to discuss with me before making any decisions in the future. I think that woman would definitely not want you to do such a crazy thing."
"I know."
