Chapter 241: Retreat Breakthrough
If it was when they met for the first time, or after cultivating together in the Heavenly Spirit Academy for a period of time, Cao Chuan suddenly came to the door and said that he was an alchemist who could refine the eight-grade pill, whether it was Xue Meng or Jiang Jinjiu, he would never believe it, and said righteously that he was not a fool who was easy to fool.
But when Cao Chuan really took out two pieces from the porcelain vase, which were still a little warm, obviously the Eight-Rank Kaitiantongxu Pill that had just been refined not long ago, and put the pill in the hands of Xue Meng and Jiang Jinjiu, whether the two of them were willing to admit it or not, they couldn't help but show a look of disbelief and sudden ecstasy on their faces.
Although she is the eldest lady of the Xue family, one of the top forces in Zhongzhou, the reason why Xue Meng has never tried to break through to the Cave Ruins Realm after cultivating to the sevenfold perfection realm of the Yuan Shen Realm early is precisely because of the lack of corresponding pills to assist him in breaking through.
It's just that the elixir that can assist the monks of the Sevenfold Consummation Realm of the Yuan Shen Realm to break through to the Cave Ruins Realm must be at least an eight-rank pill.
But whether it is for the Xue family, Luoyang Villa, or even for the entire Zhongzhou, trying to find an eight-rank pill is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, so wanting to break through from the Yuan Shen Realm to the Cave Ruins Realm is originally looking at luck and playing with fate.
Xue Meng didn't want to take this risk, not to mention that Liu Chen had already failed once, if she and Jiang Jin had failed to break through like Liu Chen, then she didn't dare to imagine what kind of disaster she and Jiang Jin would face next.
Therefore, when Cao Chuan suddenly came to the door and took out two steaming eight-rank open Tiantong ruin pills, the mood of Xue Meng and Jiang Jinjiu rose and fell like the undulating mountains, but in the end they all turned into excitement and ecstasy.
Cao Chuan didn't give the two of them a chance to ask carefully, and after delivering the pill, he ran directly back to the courtyard where he lived, saying that he was going to retreat and practice, but in fact, he took out the remaining few Eight Rank Open Heaven Tongxu Pills and stuffed them directly into his mouth and took them, and then immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to prepare to break through the realm calmly.
It's just that he and Xue Meng and Jiang Jinjiu's cultivation methods are different, so the preparations they need to make when breaking through are also different.
After cultivating to the sevenfold consummation of the Yuan Shen Realm, ordinary monks can help break through by taking various pills or heavenly and earthly treasures, and they are at least fifty percent sure that they can successfully break through.
And for Cao Chuan, who has the Chaos Immortal Technique, it is not so simple and easy to break through from the Yuan Shen Realm to the Cave Ruins Realm.
If you want to break through the realm, the first step you need to do is to raise the Chaos Immortal Recipe to a higher level, and if you want to improve the level of the Chaos Immortal Recipe, you need to let the Chaos Immortal Recipe absorb and refine and devour enough heavenly and earth treasures, so that the Chaos Divine Tree in the depths of the dantian can grow more lushly.
In the second step, Cao Chuan also needs to balance a large amount of power from the fire in his body, otherwise once the power of one of the fires is too strong, it will dominate, so that it will suppress the power of the other fires, so that the spiritual power and evil qi in his body will riot, and even seriously injure it if it leads to the failure of the breakthrough.
But once the first two parts are successfully completed, it will be much easier than imagined to take the pill to try to break through.
Due to the transformation of his physical body by the characteristics of the Chaos Immortal Technique, coupled with the extremely strong and vast sea of knowledge, Cao Chuan, who can go to the third step, will break through from the Yuan Shen Realm to the Cave Ruins Realm without any surprise, which can be said to be a perfect grasp of ten percent.
Cao Chuan naturally knew what he had to do.
Therefore, when he was ready to break through the realm, he had already prepared all the heavenly and earthly treasures in the storage bag.
Soon, at the same time that Cao Chuan urged the operation of the Chaos Immortal Technique, the spiritual power vortex on the thirty-six death points in his body suddenly opened up, and even the active operation of the spiritual power will be placed around Cao Chuan, and all the treasures that are about to pile up into a small mountain are all involved, and then absorb and refine them, condense these treasures into spiritual power and transport them to the Chaos Divine Tree at the dantian.
As a large amount of spiritual power and evil qi poured into the Chaos Divine Tree, the life-like Chaos Divine Tree kept swaying, blooming branches of fire flowers of different colors and shapes, sprinkled in the dantian with gentle power to nourish and change Cao Chuan's body.
It wasn't until the top of the Chaos Divine Tree, whose own leaves suddenly became bigger as if it were rising against a storm, that Cao Chuan exhaled a breath of rich aura, and then stopped absorbing and refining the heavenly and earthly treasures, and instead closed his eyes and let himself enter the state of epiphany as quickly as possible.
In this state, Cao Chuan, who would not be affected by any factors from the outside world, began to control every fire that had begun to burn wildly on the Chaos Divine Tree and compete with other fires with his extremely vast sea of knowledge and divine soul power far more powerful than the cultivators of the same realm.
Among them, the Heavenly Ground Mother Fire was still as calm as usual, and even without being controlled by Cao Chuan, she had already begun to take the initiative to help Cao Chuan control those fires that suddenly went berserk because of the growth of the Chaos Divine Tree and the improvement of the level of the Chaos Immortal Technique.
Because of this, with the help of the Mother Fire of Heaven and Earth, Cao Chuan, the second step of breaking through the realm, actually walked smoothly and without any accidents.
Among them, the Immortal Phoenix Flame and the Divine Fire Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang are bound to Wen Jinghao and Yu Qinglan respectively, so as long as Wen Jinghao and Yu Qinglan are still awake, these two Divine Fire Flames will only regain their calm after a little fuss.
The one who made the most trouble was undoubtedly the Divine Fire Heavenly Demon Blood.
But what surprised Cao Chuan was that it was not anything else that really suppressed the blood of the Divine Fire Heavenly Demon, nor himself, but the black and white long and short sword that he got from Meng Feiran.
When the Divine Fire Heavenly Demon Blood, which had been making noise, met the black and white long and short sword that Cao Chuan had found by chance, he instantly became very obedient, and quietly released an extremely gentle power on his own branches.
At this point, with the help of the Heavenly Mother Fire and other forces, Cao Chuan finally controlled all the forces in his body under an extremely delicate balance.
At this time, Cao Chuan no longer hesitated, and immediately began to forcibly impact the barriers between the realms, preparing to complete the breakthrough in the shortest possible time.
Meanwhile.
Xue Meng, who had obtained the Eight-Rank Open Heaven Tongxu Pill, naturally began his retreat after taking the pill.
She hadn't tried to break through before because there was no suitable pill to help her break through the realm, but now that the pill is available, the breakthrough in the realm is naturally unfolding.
As for Jiang Jinjiu, he didn't take the pill, because he knew that he was now only in the cultivation realm of the three heavens of the Yuan Shen Realm, and even if he had the Eight-Rank Open Heaven Tongxu Pill to assist in cultivation, it would be impossible to break through to the Cave Ruins Realm in a short period of time.
Instead of daydreaming, it is better to wait quietly for Xue Meng and Cao Chuan to end their retreat.
Therefore, he started his cultivation alone.
Until news came from outside.
The news came to Luoyang Villa's spies distributed all over Zhongzhou, among which the spies who came to report the news were generally active in the area near the home of Zhongzhou Tianling Academy, so the news obtained was naturally related to Zhongzhou Tianling Academy.
"Looking at your anxious appearance, could it be that the news you got is actually related to Liu Chen?"
Seeing the anxious look on the face of the scout who came, he secretly said that something was wrong in his heart, so he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that Liu Chen broke through to the cave ruin realm?" ”
The spy nodded.
But he shook his head again.
Just when Jiang Jinjiu was puzzled by the spout's behavior, the spy opened his mouth to explain: "According to the information investigated by his subordinates, Liu Chen did successfully break through to the Cave Ruins Realm, but it seems that he used some special means, so the strength he can exert is actually far inferior to that of a normal breakthrough Cave Ruins Realm monk. ”
"But since Liu Chen hasn't shown up so far, his subordinates have to deliver the news first."
"I see..."
Hearing the spies' explanation, Jiang Jinjiu breathed a sigh of relief, and then waved his hand and said: "Xue Meng is still in retreat, you go back first and continue to find out the news, but remember not to startle the snake, no matter what happened to Liu Chen, you can only secretly investigate." ”
"If there is anything, wait for Xue Meng's retreat to end and make plans after the realm breakthrough."
The spy was not ambiguous, and immediately got up and left Luoyang Villa, and went back to prepare to continue to monitor Zhongzhou Tianling Academy and Liu Chen.
