The terrace of the Emerald Touring Immortal Island had already been set up with many formations, so Xia Ruofei didn't need to make any more.
He communicated with the mansion-guarding wooden token with his mind, and with a flash of his figure, he directly entered the Immortal Island and appeared in the Emerald Touring Immortal Mansion.
Xia Ruofei didn't directly find a courtyard to do closed-door cultivation. Instead, he walked to the bottom of an attic. The attic was built with the purple-black bamboo commonly seen in the Emerald Touring Immortal Mansion. There was a pond next to the attic, and a path led to a bamboo forest not far away. The environment was very quiet and secluded.
Xia Ruofei went directly to the attic, opened a cabinet, and took out a jade bottle.
He stood in front of the attic window and looked around. He found that the environment here was very good. Through the bamboo forest, he could vaguely see the sea in the distance, and from the other side, he could see a large number of ancient buildings from above.
Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment, and simply decided to do closed-door cultivation in this attic.
Therefore, he put down the jade bottle again, and then went downstairs and began to set up layers of protective formations, alarm formations, soundproof formations, and so on.
Then, Xia Ruofei returned to the outside world and pointed out the attic where he was doing closed-door cultivation to Song Wei and Ling Qingxue.
After all, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue could freely enter and leave the Emerald Touring Immortal Mansion. In order to prevent them from accidentally entering his closed-door cultivation place, Xia Ruofei naturally had to inform them in advance.
After giving out instructions, Xia Ruofei returned to the attic of the Emerald Touring Immortal Mansion again.
He took out a jade futon from the Ring-Tu space and placed it on the floor of the attic.
Then, he reached out and took the jade bottle. After gently breaking the Bounded Domain on the jade bottle, he pulled out the cork.
Xia Ruofei poured out a white pill from the jade bottle that was emitting a faint fragrance. His eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of fervent light.
This pill was very famous. It was called "Zhen Yuan Pill". Even in the golden age of the cultivation world, Zhen Yuan Pill was quite precious. This jade bottle was one of the many cultivation resources and treasures left by Bi Youzi to Xia Ruofei. There were only three Zhen Yuan Pills in the jade bottle.
The effect of the Solidifying Essence Pill was actually very simple and crude. It could increase a cultivator's cultivation without any side effects. In fact, Core Formation cultivators were the most suitable to consume the Essence Solidifying Pill. This was because the medicinal effects of the Essence Solidifying Pill were too violent for Qi Condensation cultivators. Rashly consuming it would result in a huge backlash. As for Nascent Soul cultivators, the increase in cultivation brought by the Essence Solidifying Pill was negligible and its effects were not obvious.
After Xia Ruofei completely took control of the Bi Youzi Immortal Mansion, he had already discovered this bottle of Essence Solidifying Pill. He had seen records about the Essence Solidifying Pill in many ancient cultivation books, so he recognized it at a glance.
Xia Ruofei was eager to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, so he decided to save these three Essence Solidifying Pills for his closed-door cultivation. Therefore, he directly left them in place and did not collect and organize them with other treasures and resources.
Xia Ruofei sat cross-legged on the jade futon, then took out a large number of purple yuan crystals and placed them around him. After doing all this, he took a deep breath and directly swallowed the Essence Solidifying Pill in his hand.
As soon as the Essence Solidifying Pill entered his stomach, Xia Ruofei felt a warm current rising from his dantian.
He quickly closed his eyes and skillfully operated the "Dao Secret Art" cultivation method, constantly absorbing the rich energy released by the Essence Solidifying Pill.
About an hour later, the medicinal properties of the Essence Solidifying Pill were completely absorbed.
Xia Ruofei let out a long breath of turbid air, then checked his cultivation. His eyes suddenly showed a trace of joy. In just one hour, his cultivation had increased by a lot. If he had cultivated step by step, he was afraid that he would have needed at least two months of closed-door cultivation to achieve such an effect.
It must be known that Xia Ruofei's cultivation environment could be said to be blessed by nature. It was much better than the so-called Blessed Enclave of many cultivation sects. Moreover, he used purple yuan crystals to cultivate regardless of the cost. Under such circumstances, the growth of his cultivation after two months of closed-door cultivation was considerable. It was many times better than ordinary cultivators who used spirit crystals or even spirit stones to cultivate in an ordinary environment.
In addition, because of the special nature of the Purple Gold Golden Core, it was much more difficult for Xia Ruofei to improve his cultivation compared to ordinary cultivators.
This Essence Solidifying Pill could save Xia Ruofei two months of cultivation time. The effect was quite amazing.
Xia Ruofei was very satisfied with the effect of the Essence Solidifying Pill. Now, the golden light on the ninth dragon-shaped pill pattern on the Purple Gold Golden Core had become brighter and brighter. The dragon-shaped pattern also became clearer and clearer. This was the last pill pattern on the surface of the Purple Gold Golden Core. As long as this pill pattern was completely lit, it was time to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Xia Ruofei continued to work hard and did not hesitate to pour out the second Essence Solidifying Pill from the jade bottle and threw it into his mouth.
Since ancient times, he was afraid that he was the only person who ate Essence Solidifying Pills like jelly beans.
After the Essence Solidifying Pill entered his stomach, Xia Ruofei immediately looked down and quickly immersed himself in cultivation.
This time, he operated the "Profound Essence Scripture".
The "Profound Essence Scripture" and the "Grand Dao Secret Art" were undoubtedly the top cultivation methods in the cultivation world. Although the "Profound Essence Scripture" was still slightly inferior to the "Grand Dao Secret Art", if he kept cultivating the "Grand Dao Secret Art" for a long time, the effect would not be so good. Alternating the two cultivation methods, Xia Ruofei could retain the novelty to the greatest extent and the cultivation effect would be better.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was now accustomed to alternating between these two cultivation methods.
It took about an hour or so for Xia Ruofei to finish absorbing the medicinal properties of the Essence Solidifying Pill.
As a result, his cultivation improved again on the basis of just now.
The golden light on the ninth dragon-shaped Elixir Vein became even brighter, and the lines became even clearer.
However, Xia Ruofei could feel that the increase in cultivation this time seemed to be smaller than when he took the Essence Solidifying Pill for the first time.
However, he did not feel strange or disappointed. The effect of the Essence Solidifying Pill was the best for the first time. If he continued to take it, especially in such a short period of time, the effect would definitely weaken. In fact, it was similar to the body developing a resistance to the pill.
Otherwise, as long as a cultivator continuously took the Essence Solidifying Pill, their cultivation would rapidly improve.
Although this kind of thing was impossible in today's cultivation world, in the heyday of the cultivation world, there were still cultivators who had such financial resources, especially those cultivators who were good at alchemy.
However, it was precisely because of the weakening effect that no one completely relied on pills to improve their cultivation.
Xia Ruofei had already expected this. Of course, he did not care much about this. Anyway, it would help his cultivation and save time.
He rested for a moment and immediately swallowed the third and last Solidifying Essence Pill.
Then Xia Ruofei focused on operating the 《Dao Secret Art》. It took him more than an hour to absorb the medicinal properties of the last Essence Solidifying Pill.
Xia Ruofei checked his cultivation and showed a satisfied look on his face. He nodded slightly.
He had taken all three Essence Solidifying Pills. Although the effect was decreasing, overall, it was at least equivalent to five months of bitter cultivation.
The strength of the Essence Solidifying Pill's medicinal effect was also evident. Xia Ruofei cultivated for more than five months in this state, which was at least equivalent to several years or even more than ten years of bitter cultivation for ordinary cultivators. Taking three pills to achieve such an effect was really amazing.
Now, the purple-gold Golden Core was still spinning in Xia Ruofei's dantian. The nine dragon-shaped pill patterns on it were emitting a golden light. If one did not observe carefully, they would not be able to find the difference between the golden light of these nine pill patterns. But in fact, Xia Ruofei himself was very clear that the ninth dragon-shaped pill pattern was still not completely lit. There were still some subtle differences between it and the other eight completely lit dragon-shaped pill patterns.
However, Xia Ruofei was not disappointed because if he relied on his own cultivation, it would take at least five months to cultivate to this extent. Just now, it only took him three to four hours. In addition, the ninth dragon-shaped core pattern was very close to being completely illuminated. He was very clear that even if he didn't have a pill like the Solidifying Yuan Pill, it wouldn't take long for him to completely illuminate this core pattern by relying on normal cultivation.
Moreover, as the golden light of the ninth dragon-shaped pill pattern became brighter and brighter, Xia Ruofei also felt more and more clearly the bottleneck between the Gold Core Stage and the Nascent Soul Stage.
Before, it was only a vague perception, but now he could clearly feel the bottleneck.
All of this indicated that the gap between his cultivation and the Nascent Soul Stage may be only a thin layer of window paper!
Xia Ruofei was quite satisfied with the effect of the three Essence Solidifying Pills.
He stood up and stretched his muscles and bones. Then, he stood in front of the window of the bamboo loft and looked out at the sea, resting for a while.
Ten minutes later, Xia Ruofei returned to the room and sat cross-legged on the jade praying mat. He calmed his Qi and quickly entered a state of cultivation.
Without the Essence Solidifying Pills, Xia Ruofei felt that his cultivation speed had slowed down a lot. Of course, this was because the contrast between before and after was too strong. In fact, Xia Ruofei's cultivation speed was still many times faster than the average Gold Core Stage cultivator.
The Purple Yuan Crystals that he placed around his body were also quickly consumed. The rich and pure Spirit Qi poured into his body like seawater. The Purple Gold Golden Core had been spinning, absorbing the Spirit Qi produced by cultivation. The dragon-shaped pill pattern on the surface of the Golden Core also emitted bursts of golden light, making the whole Golden Core become dazzling.
The pattern on the last dragon-shaped pill pattern became clearer and clearer, and the golden light became brighter and brighter.
The difficulty of lighting up the dragon-shaped pill pattern gradually increased. The first few pill patterns may take a few days, a dozen days, or at most a few dozen days to light up one. Later on, it slowly took two months, or even three months to light up one. And for the last dragon-shaped pill pattern, the time needed was even longer. Three Essence Solidifying Pills were equivalent to at least five months of bitter cultivation, but it still wasn't enough to completely light up this pill pattern.
Xia Ruofei was completely immersed in cultivation at this time. It could be said that he was neither sad nor happy, so naturally, he didn't have any impatience. The "Xuanyuan Scripture" cultivation method was constantly circulating, and the Purple Yuan Crystals and the rich Spirit Qi in the outside environment were also constantly being absorbed. His cultivation was also slowly but steadily increasing during this cultivation process.
Even though this was the last step, it was still very time-consuming to truly cultivate it.
After all, there was no longer a pill like the Essence Solidifying Pill that could directly increase cultivation. Xia Ruofei could only rely on cultivation bit by bit to complete the final accumulation.
If it was an ordinary cultivator, like Chen Nanfeng, this last bit of accumulation might take several years.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei had unique conditions, and he didn't lack cultivation resources at all, so his progress was naturally much faster than ordinary cultivators.
He spent about five days, and after using another batch of Purple Yuan Crystals, he finally lit up the last dragon-shaped pill pattern completely.
The moment the last pill pattern was lit up, Xia Ruofei seemed to feel a slight tremor in his body. The purple-gold Golden Core that was rotating in his dantian suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light, and the golden light's brightness increased by several times.
The nine dragon-shaped pill patterns were completely lit up.
These nine pill patterns also seemed to be alive. Nine dragons with different postures seemed to be on the verge of appearing on the surface of the purple-gold Golden Core. The dazzling golden light was emitted by these nine pill patterns. All the golden light converged on the surface of the purple-gold Golden Core, and then suddenly bloomed, as dazzling as a star.
