Time flies, five years have passed.

Under the cover of the Futu Society, everything that happened in the Yin Wind Valley did not spread in the eastern area of the Burial Immortal Mountain, and the Qianqiao Peak, which belonged to one of the parties involved, did not cause much turmoil due to the disappearance of the grimace.

Mu Sen didn't seem to care about the disappearance of Grimace, and after appointing the successor of Grimace, he couldn't go out of retreat again, but it was the old ghost of the Black Dragon Valley and the old ghost of the Black Pine Forest, who were afraid for a while, and made the two gathering points rumor, until a year or two later, there were no major changes around, and they gradually returned to normal.

As an eyewitness to the incident, Deng An stayed out of the matter.

At this time, he was in a sea of fog, picking up a few black beads the size of pearls, and his cultivation was already at the peak of the Yin Period, and he could impact the condensation at any time.

At the beginning, after Chen Youzhi's self-explosion, the impact range formed was very large, and the wooden block itself had cracks, and the area was too small to be blocked with it, but if it was blocked by spells and other means, although it would not be fatal, but serious injuries were inevitable, in the environment of the sea of fog, serious injuries meant that the opportunity to cross the sea of fog was lost, and if you wanted to survive, you could only choose to compromise with the grimace, hand over life and death to the other party, and become a chess piece.

Of course, Deng An was unwilling to get this result, and under the rapid turn of his mind, he suddenly remembered the mysterious "round ball", since it was integrated into the soul body, it has been changed from the heart, if you want to be big, you want to be small. As his mind moved, the mysterious ball was quickly condensed, and its diameter became four or five zhang large, protecting him firmly behind him.

After the violent explosion, Deng An and the mysterious ball were shocked more than ten zhang away, but fortunately, this direction was on the return route, so as not to get lost in the sea of fog.

Deng An hurriedly made the ball smaller, held it in his hand and observed it carefully, it was still the same as before, and there was no trace of damage on the surface. He couldn't help but be secretly amazed that the hardness of this ball was far beyond expectations. However, this thing is best used at critical moments to save your life, and if you have the chance, it is better to get a defensive half-underworld weapon.

Deng An escaped by luck, and returned to the original ruins at the cost of the complete scrapping of the tooth ulnar demon bone and the reduction of the cultivation to the middle of the acceptance period. Because he had the Falling God Flower and didn't have the ability to get out of the sea of fog, he cultivated in the ruins with peace of mind.

During this period, Deng An successively discovered several terrains where Yin Spirit Beads could be formed, but unfortunately, the fog corroded the Yin Spirit Beads too badly, and he could only pick up a few second-grade Yin Spirit Beads each time, but it was better than nothing, and his cultivation speed was still much faster than the Yin Spirit Cultivation at those gathering points.

It took him five years to finally stabilize his cultivation at the peak of the late Nayin period.

Although there was a falling god flower, Deng An still didn't dare to be careless, in order to ensure that the advancement process was foolproof, he deliberately went to collect some Yin Spirit Beads in case of emergency. After visiting several Yin Spirit Bead production areas, he returned to the ruins guarded by six stone pillars.

For five years, this ruin has been very quiet, only two years ago, a strange mid-condensation meditation once reached outside the light mask, but unfortunately, after trying various methods, he had to leave helplessly, and has not been here since.

At that time, because Deng An was hiding in the stone house to cultivate, and the light shield outside had a certain effect of isolating the aura, although the strange condensed form meditation had stayed for a long time, he did not find that there was another meditation in the ruins.

Since then, Deng An has chosen to advance here, and he is also a lot more relieved. As long as it wasn't a cult cultivator who could condense the Ghost Fire, there was no need to worry about them entering the ruins.

Deng An first reviewed the information of the advanced condensation, because he didn't expect to be trapped in the Yin Wind Valley before, let alone advance here, he hadn't specially collected this information, and some of the information he knew so far was taught by Huang Xingchu.

Everything was ready, and Deng An immediately began refining the Yin Spirit Bead. A trace of pure yin qi was extracted from the Yin Spirit Bead, absorbed by his soul body, and transformed into spiritual power.

An Hour......

Two Hours......

Time passed bit by bit, for Deng An, who was accustomed to this kind of life, there was no impact, his consciousness was clear, but he instinctively ran the Xuanyin True Technique, and gradually, his soul body no longer absorbed the Yin Spirit Bead and reached a certain saturation.

Deng An knew that the time had come to hit the bottleneck of Nayin.

For this moment, he waited for a long time, and he had been in a state of mind without waves, but at this time, there was a slight wave, but fortunately, he found it in time, so it did not cause a catastrophe.

Deng was quiet and calm, his face showed a decisive look, his fingers flicked forward, and a six-petal dark red flower slowly left his soul body and was suspended in mid-air.

Deng An "looked" at the falling god flower, hesitated for a moment, then manipulated the soul body to wrap it, relying on the instinct of the ghost, and began to absorb the essence of the flower.

This process is extremely long, if you zoom in and speed up, you can find that the dark red silk threads are extracted from the petals of the Falling God Flower little by little, and then, they are centered on the Falling God Flower and spread to all parts of Deng An's requiem.

Three months later, the Falling God Flower was finally consumed by Deng An, and his soul body also underwent a strange change, and its appearance was no longer gray and black, but dark red, which was somewhat the same color as the petals of the Falling God Flower.

That's just a good start, though.

Next, Deng An will face a similar choice.

As a condensation period, one can choose two different cultivation paths, one is based on the state of yin qi, and the other is based on the entity of yin qi.

The former cultivation method is similar to the Nayin period, mainly relying on the ghost's own talent, which requires less resources and a fast cultivation speed, but its disadvantages are very obvious, because there are very few spells suitable for this kind of meditation, causing their attack power to be very low.

For meditation cultivation, the competition between each other is very fierce, and if you don't have a certain ability to protect yourself, it is difficult to survive in the cultivation realm, so this cultivation method is gradually abandoned. Under normal circumstances, only those ghosts who have the support of big forces behind them and who are naturally fond of penance will choose this path.

The latter method of cultivation is the mainstream of today's meditation practice, and the division of the condensation period is derived from this. Different from the Yin Acceptance Period, the condensed body at this stage is not just an appearance, but the human meridians can already be simulated within the soul body.

Man is the spirit of all things, and his body is more in line with the will of the Heavenly Dao, and he also has more innate advantages, so whether it is a ghost or a demon, the final form of his cultivation will move closer to people. What's more, meditation is the continuation of human life, and many of their exercises and spells are obtained from human beings, and their cultivation form is condensed into a human form, which is even more convenient.

Deng Anai is a lonely soul and wild ghost, there is no big force behind him, and he has inexplicably offended forces such as the Futu Society, and more importantly, he still wants revenge, and he must have enough strength, so the second cultivation method is the best choice.

The decision had been made, and Deng An fell into cultivation again.

As time passed, the dark red color that spread all over his soul began to converge towards the soul core, and the soul body that had faded its color became more and more condensed. When the dark red shrinks to the size of an egg, it stops changing, and the soul core at this time is like the yolk in an egg.

After a while, the surface of the "egg" was like moldy dough, and many red fluff grew, which swayed like tentacles.

"It's time!" Deng An recovered from his state of settling, secretly encouraging himself.

In the next step, the meridians similar to the human body will be condensed, this process is the most critical step in the advanced condensation, although there is the power of the Falling God Flower as a guide, but he still does not dare to be careless.

Whether it can succeed or not, in this move.

A moment later, under Deng An's intentional manipulation, his soul body began to slowly shrink, and if the unaware Meditation Cultivator saw this scene, he would definitely mistakenly think that he was going to blow himself up.

Indeed, in this state, he can do it with just one thought.

When Deng An's soul body was compressed to a limit, those dark red tentacles on the surface of the "egg" began to extend strangely, especially the upward part was the fastest.

When this part of the tentacles touched the edge of the soul body, the yin qi that made up the soul body gradually rose, forming a head with delicate facial features, which looked like Deng An. However, this head was only one-third the size of his skull before his death, and it had no eyebrows or hair.

At the same time as the skull was formed, some dark red tentacles burrowed into it, and they continued to integrate and expand, simulating the meridians of human heads.

After that, the limbs such as hands and feet are ......

And then again, the torso of the human body......

This process may seem short, but it is actually quite long.

During this period, Deng An tried his best to compress the soul body to reduce its volume and minimize the time for condensing the meridians, and on the other hand, he wanted to drive the medicinal power of the Falling Divine Flower to form specific meridians one by one according to the requirements of the meditation exercises.

The consumption of the mind can be imagined.

The process of condensing the meridians is actually a process of refining the heart, it is challenging Deng An's endurance limit step by step, making him stay in a state of tightening the heartstrings for a long time, as long as there is a relaxation in the meantime, all his previous efforts will be in vain.

Half a month later, a two-foot-tall "mini" Deng An appeared in the stone house. His eyebrows, hair, etc., have grown, but his skin is black, and there is no clothing to cover his body.

At this time, the dark red "egg" in his soul body had disappeared, and his soul core became like a heart, connecting the whole body through meridians.

Suddenly, the "mini" Deng An opened his small mouth and swallowed the yin qi around him, his body was like an inflated balloon, and it quickly began to expand, until it became the size of his life, and then stopped. His eyes were still closed, waiting for the final hurdle to come.

It's going to be a very dangerous one.

If it succeeds, it will be condensed successfully, and if it fails, it will be scattered.
