"Senior Brother Lu, thank you. Because of your help, I was able to get rid of the strange poison in my body, enter the Tianhai Sect, and become an inner disciple like you."
Hearing Wu Xin'er's words of gratitude, Lu Xuan said dismissively:
“Junior Sister Wu Xin’er, we are simply exchanging what we need. I took your Star Essence Grass seed and gave you spirit stones to find a divine doctor to treat your illness. It’s just an exchange, and we owe each other nothing. So why talk about gratitude?”
Upon hearing this, Wu Xin'er looked slightly disappointed, a hint of dejection flashing across her eyes.
“In that case, Senior Brother Lu Xuan, I shall take my leave now. This Daoist robe is something I made myself these past few days, so I’ll give it to you as a token of my gratitude.”
"Junior Sister, I'll take my leave now. Perhaps we'll meet again someday." Wu Xin'er said, turning to leave. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she turned back to Lu Xuan and said:
"By the way, Senior Brother Lu, I'm at Heavenly Sword Peak..."
After saying that, Wu Xin'er summoned a low-grade flying sword, transformed into a streak of light, and left the Luoxia Mountain herb garden where Lu Xuan was.
...
Back in the cave.
Lu Xuan planned to go into seclusion to cultivate and break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining in one fell swoop.
The time for the start of the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm is getting closer and closer.
Just then, Lu Xuan's expression changed, and he took out the Heavenly Capital Spirit Jade given to him by the Fairy Linglong.
Coincidentally, Lu Xuan knew something about this item from Tianhai Zhenren's memories.
It turns out that there are nine pieces of Heavenly Capital Spirit Jade like the one in Lu Xuan's hand!
After combining the nine pieces of Heavenly Capital Spirit Jade, you can obtain a mysterious magic weapon.
As for what they are, it seems that even Master Tianhai has never been able to gather them all.
Therefore, Lu Xuan did not know either.
He only has one piece now, and it's no easy task for him to collect nine pieces.
Three days later.
Lu Xuan refined several more batches of Purple Gold Star Essence Pills.
At this point, he had used up all the Purple Gold Fruit and Star Essence Grass in his storage bag.
To refine pills again, we'll have to wait until next month, when the purple-gold fruit and star-element grass inside the cauldron will ripen.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan inherited the alchemy experience of Master Tianhai; otherwise, it would have taken countless Purple Gold Fruits and Star Essence Grasses to successfully refine a qualified Purple Gold Star Essence Pill.
It may take three to five months before we can refine this top-tier pill for the Qi Refining stage.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan's expression changed. He took out all the Purple Gold Star Essence Pills, announced that he would go into seclusion to cultivate, and instructed several outer disciples and miscellaneous disciples to manage the herb garden and not to disturb him unless necessary.
Because, for some reason, the opening time of the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm has been brought forward.
One month later.
Tianhai Sect is about to select disciples to participate in the selection process for entering the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm.
The higher one's cultivation level, the better, but it cannot exceed the Qi Refining realm.
Foundation Establishment cultivators and above are not allowed to enter the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm. In the past, there have been Core Formation cultivators who attempted to enter the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm by concealing their cultivation level with great supernatural powers and secret techniques, but without exception, they were all wiped out by the powerful secret realm power!
After that, no Core Formation cultivator dared to try that again.
Unless a Nascent Soul cultivator is willing to use the secret technique of Nascent Soul leaving the body and closing the acupoints to suppress their own realm to the Qi Refining realm, they can enter the secret realm. The price is too high, and no Nascent Soul cultivator is willing to do that.
It's really a case of losing more than you gain.
The period of seclusion was long...
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
That day.
The main hall of Tianhai Gate.
Sect Leader Yu Qingzi, several late-stage Foundation Establishment elders, and some Foundation Establishment stewards were all present.
Below them were several hundred elite disciples of the Tianhai Sect, all at the late stage of Qi Refining.
Sect Leader Yu Qingzi's voice boomed like thunder: "Disciples, the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm is about to open! Unfortunately, we have a limited number of spots. In order to secure more spots, you will have to compete with the disciples of the other nine major sects on behalf of our Heavenly Sea Sect..."
Lu Xuan was among them.
He had finished his secluded cultivation a few days ago.
As expected, his cultivation level also broke through to the tenth level of Qi Refining.
He refined and consumed all those Purple Gold Star Essence Pills.
Strangely, after Lu Xuan broke through to the tenth level of Qi Refining, he found that the Purple Gold Star Essence Pill had become much less effective in increasing his cultivation level.
The effect was almost negligible.
It seems I'll have to refine new top-tier pills for the Qi Refining stage again!
Fortunately, Lu Xuan obtained three kinds of top-grade pills for the Qi Refining stage from Tianhai Zhenren's memories.
They are:
The Purple Gold Star Essence Pill has already been refined!
Wan Hai Gui Yuan Dan!
Ziying Dan!
Among them, the Purple Infant Pill is the most effective, the most potent, the most precious, and almost extinct in the cultivation world. It is also the most difficult to refine.
Because refining the Purple Infant Pill actually requires the legendary rare and precious material, the Purple Infant Fruit!
This item has long been extinct in the cultivation world.
Even with spirit stones, you can't buy it.
Unless it's the ancient times of the cultivation world, when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is abundant and all kinds of rare and precious materials are plentiful, it's impossible to find enough Purple Infant Fruits to refine Purple Infant Pills!
"Purple Infant Pill, tsk tsk..."
Lu Xuan muttered to himself.
He also knew how difficult it was to refine this elixir.
It seems that the materials for refining the Purple Infant Pill can only be found in the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm.
In addition, there are several rare spiritual herbs for refining the ancient Foundation Building Pill, as well as spiritual herbs for refining the Great Five Elements Mystic Pill.
It seems that this trip to the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm is a must!
