379: Soul Settling Pill Refinent_1 379: Soul Settling Pill Refinent_1 “You should cultivate here!
I hope you will advance to the Core Formation Stage soon, as the Foundation Establishnt Stage is still too weak,” Shen Long instructed.
Shen Hai nodded, striding into a practice room to begin his cultivation.
Shen Long entered the alchemy room, sitting cross-legged on a red cushion, lit a stick of Tranquility Incense, and ditated to nourish his spirit.
A tea’s ti later, Shen Long cleared his mind of distractions and took out the Scarlet Crow Cauldron and the alchemy materials.
He placed a golden jade slip against his forehead, imrsing his Divine Sense into it.
After a while, Shen Long withdrew his Divine Sense and exhaled a tri-colored fla from his mouth that landed at the bottom of the Scarlet Crow Cauldron.
Before long, the Scarlet Crow Cauldron was glowing red from the tri-colored fla’s heat, and the temperature within the room soared as if one had fallen into a volcano.
Shen Long tossed the materials into the cauldron and closed the lid.
As ti ticked away, the Spirit Fruits and Spiritual dicine in the cauldron began to lt, and a faint dicinal fragrance drifted out from the Scarlet Crow Cauldron.

Zhao Country, Hundred Ghosts Sect.
In a secluded black manor, Su Liang sat beside a grey-robed elder who was tall and thin, on a green stone table.
Xu Li was reporting to them.
“Spirt Control Sect has added two more Nascent Soul Cultivators, naly Ice Silkworm True Person and Shen Long, who are master and disciple,” Xu Li said.
“Is this information reliable?
Two more Nascent Soul Cultivators,” Su Liang said, frowning.
Qin Country was a neighboring country to Zhao Country, and the increased strength of the Spirt Control Sect was not good news for the Cultivation Realm of Zhao Country.
“It’s absolutely true.
Our people encountered them at the Wanjian Marketplace.
The Spirit Control Sect has indeed struck it lucky to gain two more Nascent Soul Cultivators,” Xu Li remarked.
The Hundred Ghosts Sect currently had four Nascent Soul Cultivators, which was rather comndable.
“The Spirit Control Sect has several Nascent Soul Cultivators and a long heritage, getting Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects isn’t much of a challenge for them.
The Heart Demon Pass is difficult to cross, perhaps they’ve obtained a Miracle Elixir that weakens the power of the Heart Demon,” the grey-robed elder speculated.
Qin Wang, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage, ca from the Hundred Ghosts Sect.
“Maybe!
What worries is that they might beco overly arrogant and join forces to attack our Zhao Country,” Su Liang said with a furrowed brow.
“Hmph, we’ll block the soldiers and cover the water with earth.
At most, they could occupy so territory, but to think of annihilating us?
Nether Corpse Sect would be the first to disagree,” Qin Wang replied dismissively.
In the Donghua Cultivation Realm, the Demon Path forces revered the Nether Corpse Sect, and the Hundred Ghosts Sect followed the decrees of the Nether Corpse Sect.
“That may be so, but it’s still better to strengthen our defenses!
Zhao Country’s strength is growing, and they might target us,” Su Liang suggested.
Xu Li acknowledged and took her leave, assigned to the task.
······
Two months quickly passed by.
In the alchemy room, Shen Long’s gaze was fixed on the Scarlet Crow Cauldron in front of him, the room filled with a thick dicinal fragrance.
After a while, Shen Long extinguished the Spirit Fla and opened the cauldron’s lid, peering inside to find so golden powder—Soul-Soothing Powder.
He took out a green gourd, storing the Soul-Soothing Powder inside it.
Shen Long took out a red ssaging Plate, injected a spell into it, and said, “Master Nephew Chen, the Soul-Soothing Powder is ready; you and Master Nephew Xu, who is guarding the treasury, co over.”
“Yes, Uncle Shen,” Chen Xiao responded.
Shen Long put away the ssaging Plate and stepped outside.
He sat down in a green stone pavilion, took out tea utensils, and started brewing tea.
It wasn’t long before Lin Sen, Chen Xiao, and a tall, thin young man dressed in blue robes ca in.
“Greetings, Uncle Shen,” Chen Xiao and the young man in blue robes bowed deeply, their expressions respectful.
The young man in blue was nad Xu Hao and was responsible for guarding the treasure vault of the Spirt Control Sect, aided by two other Core Formation Cultivators who took turns keeping watch over the vault.
Shen Long invited Chen Xiao and Xu Hao to sit, handed the green gourd to Chen Xiao, and said, “This Soul-Soothing Powder I’ve refined, you arrange for soone to make it into Soul-Soothing Incense.
I hope that our sect can produce a few more Nascent Soul Cultivators.”
“Yes, Uncle Shen,” Chen Xiao and Xu Hao agreed.
Chen Xiao checked the gourd on the spot, confird it was correct, and then handed it to Xu Hao.
The Soul-Soothing Powder was very precious, which was why both Chen Xiao and Xu Hao ca together to receive it.
After so casual conversation, Shen Long dismissed them.
He proceeded to a practice room, entered the Myriad Beasts Tower, and arrived at the fourth level, where an endless azure sea unfolded before his eyes.
A gust of fierce wind blew past, and the Gold-Winged Windroc appeared in front of Shen Long.
The effects of the Snow Jade Ointnt were quite beneficial; it had almost fully recovered.
“Greetings, Master!” the Gold-Winged Windroc spoke human language.
“How’s your recovery going?
Do you still need to apply Snow Jade Ointnt?”
Shen Long asked with concern.
“I’m not in much trouble now; a bit more rest and I’ll be fully healed,”
the Gold-Winged Windroc spoke.
Shen Long took out a millennium-aged Qingfeng Grass and a wind attribute fourth-tier demon core, and fed them to the Gold-Winged Windroc.
“How far can you travel now when you use the Wind Escape Technique?”
Shen Long inquired.
“I don’t know how far, but let demonstrate!”
With a gentle flap of its wings, the Gold-Winged Windroc turned into a gust of wind and vanished.
Shen Long’s Divine Sense detected that the Gold-Winged Windroc was over a hundred miles away; his face revealed a look of delight.
Fourth-tier spirit birds could master the Wind Escape Technique.
To Shen Long’s knowledge, most fourth-tier early stage spirit birds could cover up to seventy miles with one use of the technique, which was quite remarkable since most Nascent Soul early stage cultivators’ Divine Sense range was only about two hundred miles.
The fact that the Gold-Winged Windroc could escape a hundred miles in one go illustrated the benefits of a high purity of bloodline.
A gust of wind blew by, and the Gold-Winged Windroc returned.
Shen Long whistled, and the Ice Flood Dragon flew out from the depths of the sea, landing in front of Shen Long.
It let out an ear-piercing dragon roar and exhaled a blast of cold air.
Shen Long took out a white ginseng and fed it to the Ice Flood Dragon, instructing it to stay put.
Spiritual light shone brightly on Shen Long’s body; he rged with the Gold-Winged Windroc.
A pair of massive golden wings grew from his back, and with a forceful flap, he disappeared from the spot.
The next mont, a whirlwind passed through the void over a hundred miles away, and Shen Long appeared.
“One hundred and thirty miles or so, not bad,”
Shen Long mumbled to himself, his expression excited.
Even if he encountered a Nascent Soul late stage cultivator, by rging with the Gold-Winged Windroc and using the Wind Escape Technique thrice, the Nascent Soul late stage cultivator’s Divine Sense wouldn’t be able to detect Shen Long’s presence.
As his cultivation improved or the Gold-Winged Windroc’s tier increased, the distance covered by the Wind Escape Technique would beco even further.
A blinding spiritual light appeared on Shen Long’s body as he and the Gold-Winged Windroc separated.
“Heal well; I hope you recover soon,”
Shen Long urged before heading to an island and landing in an open field.
He took out the piece of Strange Gold given to him by Du Yinyin and tossed it forward, causing it to float in mid-air.
Shen Long exhaled a three-colored fla, enveloping the Strange Gold.
Three days and nights passed, yet the Strange Gold showed no signs of lting.
Shen Long was surprised; even a fourth-tier ore would have started lting by now!
He retracted the Spirit Fla, and the Strange Gold fell to the ground.
A blinding red light shone from Shen Long’s right hand, transforming into a giant red dragon claw that grasped the Strange Gold and squeezed it forcefully.
Several fine cracks appeared in the Strange Gold, and before long, it shattered into more than a dozen pieces of various sizes.
He examined them carefully, unable to identify the Artifact Refining materials.
Du Yinyin was right; this was likely a semi-finished item.
After being fired by a third-tier Spiritual Fire for three days and nights without lting, it was likely a material for refining Spiritual Treasures.
Shen Long slapped his golden beast bag at his waist, and a dozen or so Gold-Winged Fire Ants flew out, the Ant Queen among them.
Shen Long fed half of the Strange Gold to the Gold-Winged Fire Ant Queen and divided the remainder among the dozen or so ants.
After consuming the Strange Gold, they beca drowsy, indicating that the Strange Gold contained trendous energy that would take them ti to digest.
Shen Long placed them back into the beast bag and exited the Myriad Beasts Tower.
He took out a red ssaging Plate, inserted a spell, and the voice of the Ice Silkworm True Person rang out, “Shen Long, I heard you’ve concocted the Soul-Soothing Powder.”
“Yes!
Master, you’re well-inford!”
Shen Long said with a smile.
“The Xuanyang Ceremony is about to be convened, and I was asking Master Nephew Chen about the details when I learned of it.
Would you like to join us?
The Xuanyang Sect cultivator with the Heavenly Spirit Root has reached the Nascent Soul Stage, and Nascent Soul cultivators from other powers like the Badao Villa will also be in attendance.”
Ice Silkworm True Person stated.
“Great!
I’d like to et them.
When do we leave?”
Shen Long asked.
“How about three days from now?
We’ll lead the team and go together,”
the Ice Silkworm True Person said.
Shen Long nodded, chatted idly with the Ice Silkworm True Person for a while, and then cut off the connection.
Shen Long sat down cross-legged to ditate and regulate his breathing.
Half an hour later, he took out a Blood Flood Dragon Pill and popped it into his mouth.
The Elixir dissolved instantly and not long after, a massive surge of energy rose in his abdon.
Shen Long promptly began cultivating, refining the energy in his belly.
It wasn’t long before his body was covered in a red glow, and scales like red dragon scales began to appear all over his body.
Three days later, Shen Long left the Golden Roc Peak and arrived at an expansive Azure Stone Plaza, where Qian Dafu, Xu Yang, and others had been waiting for a while.
After a short ti, the Ice Silkworm True Person arrived.
Without any further ado, Ice Silkworm True Person conjured the Ice Moon Boat, boarded it, and Shen Long and the others followed suit.
“Depart!”
Ice Silkworm True Person cast a spell, and the Ice Moon Boat lit up with a blinding white light, soaring into the sky and leaving the Spirt Control Sect.
