In the Second Empire.
In the Fufeng Protectorate.
Black fog rolled. In a cave that was temporarily opened.
Chung Shen-soo suddenly opened his eyes. "A day in the mountains is a thousand years in the world …"
He had stayed in the previous world of the mysterious side for almost a hundred years. In this world, however, several months had passed.
Fortunately, he had reached the Magical Realm and could achieve long-term fasting. Otherwise, Su Daozhi's body would have starved to death.
"In the next world, there won't be such a problem …"
Chung Shen-soo sat cross-legged and silently recalled everything he had experienced in the previous world.
Longevity, ascension, descent …
And finally, seeing that the war was about to end, he did not dare to stay any longer and could only leave.
"What a pity … If I could obtain a part of the essence of the Master of Black Blood, even if it was just a little, I'm afraid I could soar to the sky. Primordial Spirit is a small matter, and Dharmakaya is not impossible …"
Undead Immortals did not appear, Dharmakaya masters in the Second Empire were figures at the level of the various sect masters.
"But … the risk is too great, and it's not worth it … That system is too deceptive after all. I'd better walk my path of immortality …"
Chung Shen-soo was still uncertain about Ouroboros's attitude, so he could not take the risk.
Previously, it was indeed a bait, but that was the secret keeper's plan. Ouroboros was probably the one hiding behind the scenes and adding fuel to the fire.
When everything was settled, it was hard to say what would happen to an ant like him.
Chung Shen-soo did not want to gamble.
Therefore, he could only choose to return.
After all, he had obtained everything he wanted this time.
At least, forming an External Elixir would not be a problem.
"I just don't know why … Lost Names and the other four existences did not make a move. No matter how idle they are, faced with such a change, they would definitely be alarmed, right? Unless … he can't fight? "
Chung Shen-soo thought of the other great existences and couldn't help thinking, 'The five great existences … have never taken action and are very low-key … But in the Spirit World, there are six great road signs … Wait … The Trial of the Heavens doesn't have a physical body, so there are only five road signs that have form and substance. The Black Gate, Pure White Wilderness, Crimson River, Heaven Reaching Golden Tower, and Ascension Altar … And they all have the characteristics of being sacrificed and borrowing power … Even the Heaven Reaching Golden Tower can keep up with the times and completely represent that world's highest achievements in alchemy …'
"Could it be … that the five gods have already turned into signs? Does that mean that after I leave and the Lord of Black Blood and Damo perish, the Spiritual Realm will have two more Dao Marks? "
"The original Mystery System has been overthrown, and there are going to be two more realms?"
Unfortunately, these were only guesses, and there was no way to verify them.
However, Chung Shen-soo felt that it was very likely to be true.
"It turns out that the people of that world not only live on the Ascension Altar, but also on the corpse of a certain existence? Humans … are like bacteria? "
He suddenly thought of a natural phenomenon called whale fall.
After a whale died, its huge body was rich in nutrients, and it could provide for the survival of other bacteria and even living creatures for a long time, forming a small ecosystem. This kind of circulatory system with decomposers as the main body could last for as long as a century.
If the whale was magnified infinitely, and the time was extended infinitely, would it develop into a world?
It was terrifying to think about it, terrifying to think about it …
Chung Shen-soo let out a long breath and looked at the attribute window:
"Title: Descender"
"Realm: Divine Power"
"Sea of Consciousness Divine Power: Shapeshifting (Tier 1), Nine Clarity Celestial Light (Tier 1), Five Elements Heavenly Flight (Tier 2), Inextinguishable Heavenly Fire (Tier 3), Dragon and Tiger Divine Seal (Tier 3)"
"Physical Divine Power: Void Poison, Nine Deaths Rebirth (9), Stone Buddha Unbreakable"
"Alchemy: Novice"
"Tenxiu Point: 2,150 (0%)"
"Door of All Doors: Available"
…
"Hmm? Not only can the Door of All Doors allow one's real body to pass through, but it can also be recharged? It can be activated again? "
Chung Shen-soo nodded. "But that's normal. Those existences should be comparable to the Door of All Doors, right?
"Apart from that, the title of [Descender] covers [Herdsman]. Does this mean that I have accumulated a lot of mysticism knowledge in the previous world?
"Of course, the biggest gain this time is still the 'Spirit'!"
He pondered for a while, and an object that looked like a Spirit Pearl appeared in his hand.
It was translucent, and there was a mist rising from it. It seemed real and illusory at the same time, and people could not help but get lost in it.
If Zhang Taiyi had seen it back then, he would have been so jealous that he would have snatched it at all costs.
This was because this was an inner core that was comparable to a Primal Core monster, and it was the most suitable item to use as the foundation of External Alchemy!
In fact, the "Spirit" in Chung Shen-soo's hand was of extremely high quality, slightly better than an ordinary Primal Core. After all, it had once advanced to the Primordial Soul stage, and even if it had regressed, it still had the quality of a Primal Core.
What was even more amazing was that it was of the same origin as Chung Shen-soo, and its aura was compatible. There was absolutely no rejection.
Chung Shen-soo played with the "Spirit" in his hand. In his mind, the Core Formation chapter of the Dragon Tiger Alchemy Manual, as well as the External Alchemy method that Zhang Taiyi had painstakingly researched, flowed through his mind like a clear spring.
"If the Taishang Dragon Tiger Sect cultivators want to form a Primal Core, they must first destroy the six internal organs and destroy the five viscera to achieve great success. They must destroy the vitality in their body, leaving only a bit of pure Yuanyang qi to form a Core … My foundation is not pure, and I have trained in physical techniques, so I can't even break through the three entrances …
"But the External Alchemy method is different, and I don't need all this. It doesn't matter how much I practice, because the foundation is this" Spirit "!
"Now, all I need to do is to refine the" Spirit "to form an External Alchemy, and then inject my own techniques into it …
"Hmm … Since I'm in seclusion, should I break through to the Primal Core in one go?
"It seems that I still lack a good alchemy furnace. Hmm, and my alchemy skills are not that good …"
At the mention of alchemy furnaces, Chung Shen-soo could not help but think of Zhang Taiyi's Five Fires and Six Energies Furnace, but he could only stare at it helplessly.
With a thought, he summoned his stats window:
[Do you want to use 10 Tenxiu Point to upgrade your Alchemy to the Expert level?]
"Yes!"
[Alchemy: Novice → Expert!]
[Do you want to use 20 Tenxiu Point to upgrade your Alchemy to the Master level?]
"As expected of a cultivation skill, it's more expensive than normal skills. Yes!"
[Alchemy: Expert → Master!]
"Kaboom!"
Chung Shen-soo suddenly felt a surge of alchemy knowledge in his mind. He also felt that his alchemy skills were too crude and embarrassing.
Now that he looked at Zhang Taiyi's External Alchemy method, he could not help but feel enlightened.
"No furnace … So be it … With the sky as the cover, the earth as the furnace, Yin and Yang as the charcoal, and nature as the work … Using this method to imitate nature, it might actually be more in line with the essence of forming the core!"
"But with my current alchemy skills, it doesn't seem too safe."
"Tenxiu System!"
[Used 40 Tenxiu Point. Alchemy: Master → Grandmaster!]
