The Five-patterned Returning Void Pill generally increases the chance of breaking through to the Lianxu Stage by approximately sixty-three percent. Combined with the blood and flesh essence of the Spirit Beast of Void and Primordial Spirit Spring Water, this probability can reach seventy-eight percent.
The Bead of Virtual Deity offered up to an additional ten percent probability, raising the total chance of breaking through to the Lianxu Stage to eighty-eight percent.
Since the probability increase does not reach a hundred percent, the effect of the Five-patterned Returning Void Pill cannot be considered satisfactory.
This ti, in preparing the Returning Void Pills, Jia Ren discovered many problems and flaws, indicating that there was significant room for improvent in the Elixir.
If he could resolve these issues, the quality of the Returning Void Pills could be taken a step further.
He kept perfecting the known problems, striving for perfection.
Once the ideas in his mind were fully ford, he began refining the second batch of pills.
With the experience from the first batch of Returning Void Pills, refining the second batch was much simpler for Jia Ren.
As the lid of the Pill Furnace opened, the rich fragrance of Elixirs swirled around, and golden light illuminated the room.
A golden shadow shot out like lightning and instantly tried to escape the Alchemy Room.
HUM!
A white light screen surfaced, blocking the path of the golden shadow, preventing its escape after several attempts.
Jia Ren’s gaze penetrated the golden light swirling around the shadow and saw its true nature.
It was a pill with fifteen Elixir Patterns, radiating astonishing Spiritual Power and Spiritual Nature.
The highest quality Elixir Jia Ren had consud was an eighteen-patterned Golden Core Formation Pill, which nearly guaranteed a breakthrough with its quality.
Although the quality of a fifteen-patterned pill was sowhat inferior, a ninety-percent breakthrough rate was definitely not a problem.
Together with the two already obtained treasures that assist in breaking through the Lianxu Stage, a combination of thods could achieve a similar effect.
An invisible suction ca from Jia Ren’s palm, and in the next mont, the Returning Void Pill with fifteen patterns flew into his hand.
With the Elixir prepared, the next step was to get ready for breaking through to the Lianxu Stage.
But where should he choose to undertake his secluded breakthrough?
To advance further in the Lianxu Stage, one must commune more deeply with nature. The Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl, being rely a treasure, lacks the corresponding natural laws to rge the Divine Soul with nature.
Break through within the Second Spirit Treasure Sect? That would inevitably expose his true Realm.
Leave the Lingbao Sect and find another location for the breakthrough? Not to ntion that the Source Treasure Cave Heaven housed Seventh-order Demon Beasts comparable to the Body Integration Realm, and Demon Cultivators had likely already entered it. Without clarity on the Demon Cultivators’ situation, it would be reckless to venture outside. Breaking through outside the Sect, whether encountering powerful Magical Beasts or Demon Cultivators, would be a security risk.
Choosing the lesser of two evils, Jia Ren preferred to remain within the safety of the Sect for his breakthrough. Safety is of utmost importance! Issues with too swift an advancent in Realm... would have to be concealed with the Spirit Devouring Treasure Art. Troubles after the event would need to be resolved with strength. Jia Ren felt helpless in his heart; he had wanted to conceal his Realm several tis, yet in the end, he still had to face this result...
He stepped out of the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl. His Second Nascent Soul quickly ca up with a smile, handing over four Jade Slips and two pieces of exchanged spiritual materials.
The Second Nascent Soul was responsible for communicating with Yan Liu, exchanging desired spiritual materials on Jia Ren’s behalf, and would receive a ten percent commission of the corresponding materials upon success. After tasting the benefits, Yan Liu’s attitude had steadily improved. Each ti they t, Yan Liu would provide the latest standings in the Combat Law Sequence, along with information about the deployed Demon Cultivators.
His Second Nascent Soul relayed, "This ti, a total of three hundred and seven Demon Cultivators have been deployed. These are the Demon Cultivators caught by the Lingbao Sect in the last thirty years. The lowest Cultivation Level among them is the Nascent Soul Early Stage, and there are ninety-seven Demon Cultivators at the late-stage Divinity Transformation.
"Each Demon Cultivator carries a special restriction from the Lingbao Sect, allowing the high-level Elders of the Lingbao Sect to locate them at any ti.
"Cultivators in the Lingbao Sect’s Combat Law Sequence, except for those in closed-door cultivation for a breakthrough, must all participate in hunting down these Demon Cultivators."
"Artifact Refiners have to join the battle as well?!" Jia Ren’s expression turned strange upon hearing this from his Second Nascent Soul.
The Artifact Refiners called to battle were none other than the five who took part in the Combat Law Sequence competition.
Although he had participated only once and was scarcely involved thereafter, his na was recorded, and he had to join in pursuing and killing Demon Cultivators as a trial. This made Jia Ren secretly relieved that he had not been greedy for advantages by participating in the struggle of the Sequence. Otherwise, he too would have been among those ’drafted’. The resources of the Combat Law Sequence are bait left by the Sect. If you crave more benefits, you have to pay a higher price. There are no free unrewarded benefits in this world! This is a lesson left by the Lingbao Sect for those who covet easy gains, as a warning. The first trial with Demon Cultivators might be manageable, but subsequent trials would feature stronger deployed Demon Cultivators. If they participated, wouldn’t they just beco cannon fodder?
Besides that, no significant events had occurred in the Second Spirit Treasure Sect.
Jia Ren was just about to prepare his traps when he suddenly felt fluctuations in the Lingbao Sect’s nature’s spiritual energy, and a vast spiritual energy phantom condensed in the Void.
That was the silhouette of a person, bearing a resemblance to Ji Ning.
"Congratulations to Brother Ji Ning for advancing to the Lianxu Stage!"
"Haha, indeed he is the proud talent of the Lingbao Sect!"
Excited voices ca from afar. Ji Ning had broken through to the Lianxu Stage, marking an auspicious beginning.
With the first successful example, more Lingbao Sect Cultivators would feel stimulated to attempt the breakthrough into the Lianxu Stage.
Many Cultivators gathered outside a Temporary Cave Dwelling, ready to congratulate Ji Ning on his successful seclusion.
Ji Ning was one of the Lingbao Sect Cultivators who had built a dwelling outside the Sect. He often left the Lingbao Sect to undergo life-and-death trials.
He possessed the strength to challenge those beyond his level, and these experiences were crucial.
Breaking through Realms required avoidance of any disturbances, and with the trial period involving Demon Cultivators drawing near, Ji Ning did not dare to break through in the outside world.
He had returned to the Sect more than a decade ago and entered seclusion to break through.
Jia Ren glanced a few tis, then withdrew his attention.
It was ti for his own breakthrough!
The Second Nascent Soul was responsible for guarding him. Jia Ren took out the Soul-Cleansing Water, then cleansed the impurities from his recent consumption of the Qingjin God Shrimp to strengthen his Divine Soul several tis.
He eliminated all external influences that could affect the breakthrough, as well as disturbances to the Realm progression, before he took out the treasures to assist in breaking through to the Lianxu Stage.
He had the fifteen-patterned Returning Void Pill, the blood and flesh essence of the Spirit Beast of Void, and the Primordial Spirit Spring Water. In addition, the Nine Revolutions Life Creation Pill and the Soul Source Resurrection Pill were also laid out before him.
These were life-preserving items prepared for external disturbances.
Even if he encountered unpredictable dangers, both treasures could be used to save his life.
Next were several Spiritual Treasures for protecting the mind, among which the Sky-reaching Spirit Treasure Soul-Shaking Bell was strikingly included.
The Sky-reaching Spirit Treasure possessed its own spiritual intelligence and consciousness. Before his seclusion, Jia Ren had infused it with sufficient Heavenly Treasure Spirit Power.
Unlike previous breakthroughs, there was a certain probability of encountering a Heavenly Demon during the Lianxu Stage.
Heavenly Demons were far stronger than Heart Demons and boasted formidable power, making them difficult to deal with.
But with the Soul-Shaking Bell at his side, it could save his life at a critical mont.
Besides that, the Demon-Sealing Spirit Tower was also contained within his Dantian.
Perhaps at the Sealed Land, when breaking through Realms, one could suffer persecution from Heart-devouring Illusion Bizarre; Jia Ren was highly cautious against Bizarre Demons. The Source Treasure Cave Heaven seed safe, but no one could be certain whether they would be unlucky enough to encounter Bizarre Demons interfering, affecting their breakthrough. Having prepared solutions in advance, he could easily resolve such issues if they arose.
Jia Ren carefully reviewed everything to ensure that nothing had been overlooked before he sat down on the ditation cushion in his seclusion, entering a state of rging with the surroundings, oblivious to outer matters.
The Divine Soul resided above the Divine Sea, interacting subtly with Heaven and Earth, condensing a Virtual God.
The Virtual God is what the Divine Soul becos after the Nascent Soul to Divine Spirit stage, further integrating with Heaven and Earth to grasp even greater power.
Divinity Transformation involves the manipulation of Heavenly Earth Primordial Qi, while the Lianxu Stage signifies mastery over it.
A single word’s difference, yet the power was incomparable.
The Lianxu Stage was mostly about laying the foundation for the Body Integration Realm. Once the Virtual God beca powerful and the Five Elents were integrated into the body all at once, the physical body would possess inconceivable strength.
With the Five Elents as the body’s cornerstone, integrated with Heaven and Earth, the physical body will possess inconceivable strength. Traversing the Void or tearing space asunder with a single palm will not be difficult.
Based on this, Cultivators could cultivate the legendary Great Divine Ability: Regeneration from a Drop of Blood.
At this level, the Cultivator’s body was no longer a weak point, possessing even greater life-saving capabilities.
To many Cultivators, the Lianxu Stage was a transitional Realm, yet it was also the foundation for the future Great Dao.
Recalling Ancestor Ji Kong’s guidance, Jia Ren contemplated the key points of advancing to the Lianxu Stage. Firstly, to condense the Virtual God with the Divine Soul and nature’s spiritual energy, absorbing nature’s spiritual energy and insights into Heaven and Earth to strengthen the Virtual God. The stronger the Virtual God, the broader the range of nature’s spiritual energy it controlled, and the more powerful its manipulation. When two Void Refining Stage Cultivators battled, it wasn’t just about personal cultivation levels but also their mastery over nature’s spiritual energy. The stronger one would usurp control of the region’s nature’s spiritual energy, leaving the opponent unable to manipulate even a bit of it, resulting in a vast discrepancy in combat power. One could only use their own spiritual power to contend with ’Heaven and Earth,’ and the outco was foreseeable.
Threads of nature’s spiritual energy, under ticulous control, slowly fused into the Divine Soul, gradually shaping the Virtual God.
Nature’s spiritual energy was secondary; the key was the understanding of Heaven and Earth and a thorough comprehension of the Virtual God.
The ti to comprehend Heaven and Earth was unpredictable, and the ti to condense the Virtual God particularly lengthy.
It could be a hundred years, or even thousands, or tens of thousands of years.
Exploring nature is tiless, and many Cultivators lose track of ti within it. Their Divine Souls might dissipate before ever forming a Virtual God, eventually rging back into nature and nourishing it.
So realize their misguided ways but return too late, their bodies having already decayed.
Many Cultivators’ bodies turn into mummies because their Divine Souls have left the body for too long. Without the Divine Soul to channel nature’s spiritual energy for nourishnt, their flesh and blood wither.
Without the aid of treasures, achieving a Virtual God is no easy task.
Even if successful, spending hundreds or thousands of years to form a Virtual God would be a losing proposition.
The ti had co for the fifteen-patterned Returning Void Pill, the blood and flesh essence of the Spirit Beast of Void, and the Primordial Spirit Spring Water to play their roles. They were all extraordinary substances of Heaven and Earth, enhancing understanding and perception, and greatly accelerating the formation of the Virtual God.
With the help of these three treasures, Jia Ren felt as if he was being personally taught by Heaven and Earth, having the relevant experiences forcibly cramd into his mind. The process of condensing the Virtual God switched to fast-forward mode, forming at an incredibly rapid pace.
「Ten years later」
Fluctuations of Heaven and Earth emanated from above Jia Ren’s Cave, and a shadowy, illusionary figure slowly erged, identical to Jia Ren in appearance.
The Virtual God was achieved!
