Six months later.
He Xingfa visited again.
Zhang Yuhe walked out of the cave, and the two had just sat down in the courtyard.
He Xingfa couldn't wait to ask.
"I wonder if Brother Zhang has successfully forged the immortal artifact?"
Zhang Yuhe remained silent.
He waved his right hand.
A long, black staff appeared in his hand.
The long staff was surrounded by celestial energy, with rings of golden runes interspersed in the middle.
He Xingfa reached out and took it.
The long staff was extremely heavy in his hand, and he was momentarily caught off guard, causing him to stumble.
If it weren't for cultivating an immortal body, I almost dropped the long staff just now.
Looking at the long staff-shaped magical artifact in his hand, He Xingfa reached out and stroked it, his expression filled with excitement.
He examined the long staff in the middle carefully, as if he were looking at a work of art.
When you see the words "Galaxy Sky-Breaking Staff" engraved in the middle of the long staff...
He Xingfa couldn't help but laugh heartily.
"What a magnificent Milky Way Sky-Breaking Staff!"
After examining it carefully for a long time, He Xingfa reluctantly put away the long stick and then asked Zhang Yuhe.
"I don't have many immortal stones on me. I've already spent most of them collecting materials. I wonder if I could pay you with Chaos Beast Crystal Cores?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuhe's eyes lit up.
Chaos Beast Crystal Core, that's a really good thing.
His main purpose in helping He Xingfa refine immortal artifacts was to make a name for himself.
Once you have a reputation, it will be much easier to do business in the market.
He hadn't really thought too much about the compensation.
If he wants payment, he'll definitely have to get paid first before doing anything.
However, since it's a Chaos Crystal Core, there's no need to be polite.
This is exactly what he needs.
Thinking of this, he tentatively asked.
"Brother Xie, do you have any two-star crystal cores?"
With a flick of his wrist, He Xingfa produced a crystal core radiating a violent aura in his hand.
"This is a two-star crystal core; consider it payment for Brother Zhang."
"Can."
Zhang Yuhe nodded in agreement.
This is a fair trade.
When a master craftsman helps someone forge a weapon, he usually receives payment in the form of materials.
The price of one immortal artifact is roughly equivalent to ten one-star crystal cores.
One two-star crystal core can be exchanged for ten one-star crystal cores.
However, this is only the theoretical exchange rate.
In fact, the higher the star rating of a crystal core, the rarer it is.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Yuhe got a good deal by using a two-star crystal core as payment for refining the weapon.
...
The transaction was completed, and He Xingfa left happily.
Zhang Yuhe looked at the crystal core in his hand and was extremely happy.
He still had one one-star crystal core left, plus this one.
Then he can open the two orifices.
Thinking about this...
Zhang Yuhe quickly walked into the cave.
Arriving at the cultivation platform, he sat cross-legged and silently recalled the contents of the Chaos Awakening Secret Technique.
According to the inscription on the stone tablet, using this secret technique to open one's mind requires the assistance of setting up a celestial array.
A short while later, Zhang Yuhe stood up.
With a wave of his right hand, array flags rapidly fell around the training platform.
He had prepared these array flags beforehand; now he only needed to inscribe the array patterns.
Zhang Yuhe reached out and drew invisible array patterns in the air, connecting all the array flags around the training platform together.
After the last array pattern was inscribed.
He quickly made a hand seal, and a purple light shone in the cave.
A purple light enveloped the cultivation platform, forming a purple curtain of light.
Zhang Yuhe took out a star crystal core and placed it not far in front of him.
He took a deep breath and then, following the method in the Chaos Awakening Secret Technique, slowly absorbed the energy from the crystal core.
The nascent soul in the dantian suddenly opened its eyes.
A bright spot of light appeared on the golden nascent soul.
The light illuminated the entire dantian, and the dantian sea began to expand once again.
Time passed slowly.
I don't know how much time has passed.
Zhang Yuhe slowly stood up from the cultivation platform.
Feeling the surging power in his dantian, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
"Very good. After the Nascent Soul opened one aperture, its strength has indeed increased significantly."
He silently sensed the changes in his dantian.
After opening the first aperture, his dantian sea expanded by another 30%.
Moreover, the spiritual energy in the dantian has become even purer.
This is the benefit of the nascent soul opening its senses.
It can not only directly improve the strength of a True Immortal, but also increase endurance.
In addition, after the Nascent Soul is awakened, the cultivation speed will also be greatly improved.
"Keep up the good work and try to open the second aperture directly."
After successfully opening the first aperture in the Nascent Soul stage, Zhang Yuhe was not satisfied.
He planned to press on and open the second acupoint as well.
Although there is a certain chance of failure when the Nascent Soul is opened, he doesn't care at all at this moment.
The awakening of the Nascent Soul can directly improve strength and also accelerate cultivation speed.
Faced with such temptation, who could resist?
Zhang Yuhe waved his right hand, putting away the array flags around the training platform.
They replaced the flags with new ones and then began inscribing the array patterns again.
According to the records in the Chaos Awakening Secret Technique, the formation used for each awakening will be somewhat different.
To open the second aperture, he needs to rearrange the formation.
However, opening the first three apertures only requires the assistance of a first-tier immortal array.
This was no challenge for him at all.
The new formation was quickly set up.
Zhang Yuhe took out the two-star crystal core he had just acquired and placed it in front of him, then slowly closed his eyes.
Under the purple light, the aura on the crystal core was slowly drawn into the dantian.
A long time passed.
Zhang Yuhe opened his eyes, a look of wild joy on his face.
"Haha, a double whammy."
He was extremely happy to have his mind opened up one after another.
He silently sensed the changes in his own strength.
After opening both orifices in succession.
His current strength has increased by as much as 60%, which is a qualitative leap.
Among true immortal cultivators, he can now be considered a master in his own right.
If he unleashes his full power, he'd even dare to take a chance against a late-stage True Immortal.
With such strength, they can basically protect themselves in the waters off Ji'an.
As long as he doesn't provoke those Golden Immortal Ancestors, there shouldn't be many beings here that could threaten his safety.
Nevertheless, Zhang Yuhe was not complacent.
He had no intention of going out and having fun.
If your strength is lacking, you must diligently cultivate; if your strength increases, you must also continue cultivating.
We've only just begun.
A mere True Immortal can only hop around a few times in this fishpond in the Ji'an Sea.
Once he leaves the waters off Ji'an, his strength will be completely insufficient.
"Now that two acupoints have been opened, the next step is to begin comprehending the laws."
Zhang Yuhe put aside his joy at his successful breakthrough and began to plan his next steps.
Let's put cultivation aside for now; it's not something that can be accomplished overnight.
He shouldn't even think about improving his cultivation level again in less than a few thousand years.
For him, comprehending the laws was the fastest and most direct way to improve his strength.
Although many true immortal cultivators have devoted tens of thousands of years to deep contemplation, they still cannot grasp the basics of the gate's laws.
But he is different.
With his extraordinary comprehension, comprehending a law shouldn't be too difficult for him.
