Fortunately, Lu Xuan had the experience of exploding his acupoints twice, so it wouldn't be too much of a problem for him to break through these minor acupoints.
Time passed quickly. One by one, Lu Xuan consumed the herbs. Even the precious Celestial Aqua Vine was eaten by Lu Xuan inch by inch. It was indeed worthy of being a top-grade spiritual herb. It was full of fragrance without the slightest bitterness.
After nearly a day and a night, Lu Xuan continuously broke through his acupoints and finally broke through all thirty-two minor acupoints. Although it sounded simple, it wouldn't have been so easy to succeed without the assistance of so many precious spiritual herbs.
Slowly opening his eyes, Lu Xuan glanced at Chen Xiaohan beside him. She was still focused on cultivating the Soul Tempering Method to strengthen her soul force. She had already consumed a small portion of the Frost Wonder Ginseng beside her.
Lu Xuan didn't disturb her. He stood up and continued to look for spiritual materials.
"Now that I've broken through thirty-six acupoints, I already have the conditions to condense the IX Divine Rune. However, I still need to find the corresponding spiritual materials to condense the Divine Rune," Lu Xuan thought silently.
The Physique Tempering Lineage was different from the Spirit Tempering Lineage. The Spirit Tempering Lineage required primordial stones, but the Physique Tempering Lineage didn't. The Physique Tempering Lineage required a variety of ores, from which the corresponding essence could be extracted to form a Divine Rune in the body. The higher the star of the Divine Rune, the more essence was needed, and naturally, more precious ores were needed.
The Physique Tempering Technique in the Taiyi Origin Conversion Technique was right. If one didn't have enough resources, there was no need to consider Physique Tempering Lineage. The Spirit Tempering Lineage could also absorb yuan qi from heaven and earth. However, if a Physique Tempering Lineage didn't have enough resources, it would be difficult for him to advance on the path of cultivation.
Fortunately, there were plenty of spiritual materials in this stone chamber apart from the endless number of spiritual herbs. Lu Xuan soon found a place to store spiritual materials in the stone chamber.
A rather messy pile of ores appeared before Lu Xuan's eyes. All of them were dazzling like crystals, and they seemed extremely gorgeous when piled together. These ores were exactly what Lu Xuan required to condense the Ninth-Water Divine Crest, and they were called Ice Crystals.
"These ice crystals should be enough to condense a One Star IX Water Divine Rune, but they're far from enough to condense a Two Star IX Water Divine Rune." Lu Xuan slowly shook his head.
Every time a Divine Imprint was raised by one star, the amount of Elemental Essence required would multiply or even increase by ten times. The grade of the ores required would naturally also increase. Ice crystals could also be considered a pretty good ore. In the outside world, they could be used to forge weapons and armors that weren't low grade. But to a physique refiner, they could only be used to condense a 1 star Divine Imprint.
However, Lu Xuan didn't think too much about it. The physique refiner lineage was difficult to begin with, and it wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight. For him, it was already not bad to be able to condense a 1 star Divine Rune. At the very least, he could resolve the problem of his hidden injuries.
Sitting down, Lu Xuan held the two ice crystals in his hand and sank his consciousness into his body. The Taiyi Origin Art instantly circulated, and as the cultivation method circulated, a trace of invisible energy surged out from the thirty-six acupoints that Lu Xuan had just broken.
The thirty-six energies slowly circulated, with four of them being the strongest, while the other thirty-two were slightly weaker. Very soon, all the energies gathered in Lu Xuan's body. With the four strongest energies as the core, they gradually formed a vortex, and a trace of suction force was immediately emitted!
With regards to the appearance of this suction force, Lu Xuan wasn't the slightest bit surprised. According to the description of the physique refiner's cultivation method, one had to make use of this suction force to extract the Elemental Essence within the ores. Only by absorbing the Elemental Essence into one's body would one be able to condense the corresponding Divine Rune.
Under Lu Xuan's guidance, the suction force was immediately transmitted to his hands, and soon after, it seeped into the two ice crystals. In an instant, an extremely cool feeling was transmitted over. Lu Xuan could clearly feel that he had already absorbed a trace of the Elemental Essence within the ice crystals. Although it was an extremely small amount, this was only the beginning.
Lu Xuan's consciousness was unprecedentedly focused, and he didn't dare to be the slightest bit negligent. Condensing a Divine Rune must be successful on the first try. If he failed, all of his previous efforts would be wasted, and the Elemental Essence that he had painstakingly absorbed would also completely dissipate.
Manipulating this trace of Elemental Essence, Lu Xuan slowly guided it through his meridians and circulated it within his body. The Body Refining Divine Rune was incomparably complex. Even if it was only a One Star Divine Rune, it was still formed by the combination of countless tiny Divine Runes. This point was similar to the Dao of Talismans. The Elemental Essence was the material used to inscribe a Talisman, and the entire body was the scroll that contained the Talisman.
The revolving energy whirlpool within Lu Xuan's body unceasingly extracted traces of Elemental Essence from the ice crystals, and absorbed them into his body. Very quickly, the Ice Essence within the two ice crystals was completely absorbed. At this moment, the ice crystals in Lu Xuan's hands had already turned into two ordinary stones, and there wasn't the slightest bit of abnormality in them.
However, the Elemental Essence of merely two ice crystals was merely a drop in the ocean when compared to the amount required to condense a Divine Rune. Another two ice crystals entered Lu Xuan's hands, and new Elemental Essence entered his body.
As one ice crystal after another was consumed, the amount of Elemental Essence that Lu Xuan absorbed into his body increased. After muttering to himself for a moment, Lu Xuan began to attempt to condense a Divine Rune.
Circulating his Body Refining Cultivation Technique, a trace of the Elemental Essence that was condensed by Lu Xuan was rapidly extracted. Carefully controlling this trace of Elemental Essence, Lu Xuan gradually outlined the outline of a Divine Rune. He originally had the foundation of a Talisman Master, and now that he had condensed a Divine Rune, it was no different from inscribing a Talisman Talisman.
Very quickly, the first Divine Rune was successfully condensed. However, this didn't mean that the condensation of the IX Divine Rune was successful. The IX Divine Rune was extremely complicated. The first Divine Rune that Lu Xuan condensed was just a small detail. If the IX Divine Rune was understood as a complete Talisman Talisman, then the first Divine Rune of Lu Xuan would be the rune that formed the Talisman Talisman.
The success of the first Divine Rune increased Lu Xuan's confidence a lot. Sensing that there was still a lot of Elemental Essence left in his body, Lu Xuan didn't stop and continued to condense the second Divine Rune. The whirlpool of energy in his body was still revolving, constantly providing new Elemental Essence to Lu Xuan.
One Divine Rune after another was added by Lu Xuan. When the entire IX Divine Rune was nearly half completed, Lu Xuan already felt a little strained. The power of the Divine Rune was too strong, and he had a feeling that he couldn't control it, as if it would collapse at any time.
"I must not collapse, otherwise, all my previous efforts would be in vain!" Lu Xuan secretly clenched his teeth and persevered. Although there were a lot of ice crystals here, they could only support him for two attempts at condensing the Divine Rune. If he failed the first time, then he must succeed the second time. In this way, it was completely a gamble.
Lu Xuan naturally didn't want to gamble, so he must succeed on the first try!
The Elemental Essence in his body increased more and more, but the speed at which Lu Xuan condensed the Divine Rune was getting slower and slower. It wasn't that he didn't want to be fast, but the slightest mistake would result in complete failure. This was a situation where one wrong move would result in a complete loss.
Finally, when the Elemental Essence in his body reached a certain level, Lu Xuan stopped absorbing the ice crystals. With so much Elemental Essence, if everything went smoothly, it would be enough for him to condense the IX Divine Rune.
Not having to absorb the Ice Elemental Essence made it slightly easier for Lu Xuan, and he could concentrate on condensing the Divine Rune.
Looking at the outline of the IX Divine Rune that was gradually taking shape in his body, Lu Xuan carefully added new Divine Runes to it. Every time he added a Divine Rune, the entire IX Divine Rune would fluctuate, causing Lu Xuan to tremble with fear. He was afraid that the slightest mistake would cause it to collapse.
Under such a tense state, Lu Xuan didn't know how long had passed. When he had almost completed 80% of the IX Divine Rune, he felt that he had reached the limit of his control, and he didn't dare to continue. He was sure that if he added another Divine Rune in his current state, it would immediately collapse.
"It's just condensing a One Star Divine Rune, is it so difficult? Looks like I've underestimated the difficulty of body refinement. " Lu Xuan gritted his teeth and said. But in his current state, it was impossible for him to dismount. He was naturally unwilling to give up, but he couldn't maintain this state forever. Otherwise, when he was exhausted, the Divine Rune would still collapse, and at that time, the Ice Elemental Essence in his body would instantly dissipate.
"Right, I still have the power of my bloodline!" Lu Xuan suddenly recalled that the body refinement section had special instructions. Those with special bloodlines would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort when refining the body, and the ice spirit also told him to first fuse with the Azure Dragon Blood Essence before condensing the Divine Rune.
When he thought of this, Lu Xuan instantly felt as if he had grasped onto a life-saving straw, and he didn't hesitate any longer. He instantly activated the power of his bloodline!
The power of his bloodline was an extremely miraculous power. Besides one's own bloodline, it wasn't related to anything else. As the power of his bloodline was activated, Lu Xuan seemed to have gained a trace of power out of thin air. The IX Divine Rune that was on the verge of collapse miraculously stabilized, and Lu Xuan felt that he had the strength to add another Divine Rune!
In his joy, Lu Xuan swiftly continued to extract the Ice Elemental Essence and started to condense a new Divine Rune. The Ice Elemental Essence in his body rapidly decreased, and the IX Divine Rune became more and more complete. It seemed like success was right before his eyes.
Finally, when Lu Xuan successfully added the last Divine Rune, the entire IX Divine Rune shook violently. This time, the Divine Rune didn't collapse, but it had been completely condensed!
Under Lu Xuan's Inner Vision, the IX Divine Rune suddenly enlarged, and suddenly expanded to cover Lu Xuan's entire chest and abdomen. An invisible wave instantly emerged in Lu Xuan's body, and an extremely cool feeling suddenly appeared in Lu Xuan's limbs and bones. It was extremely comfortable, and Lu Xuan almost let out a sound of comfort.
When the Divine Rune was condensed, the body was used as a carrier to exert the power of the Divine Rune. It could be said that now, Lu Xuan's entire body was filled with the power of the IX Divine Rune!
