Gu Yifeng's plan was simple: at the very least, he would wait until the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique was mastered. Once mastered, the chances of him escaping would increase to 90%.
And so he checked in at the sword prison every day. About ten days passed before the old man's aura reappeared. He immediately lay down on the ground, concealed his aura, and pretended to be weak.
Soon, the old man in hemp clothing walked up to Gu Yifeng, his expression cold.
"This Immortal Execution Sword Prison must be unpleasant, kid. It was set up by the Three Pure Alliance. Even cultivators at the Taixu Realm will suffer the torment of being slowly sliced apart by sword energy every day if they enter the prison. If you don't want to suffer, you'd better agree to it."
The old man spoke coldly, his words carrying a threatening tone.
"Is that so? How much longer can you hold out? You should know the rules of the Three Pure Ones Alliance better than I do, old man. Although I don't know what's so important about the lower realm, it would be terrible if people knew that the situation in the lower realm had changed drastically, and that some people had even escaped."
"The person in charge of overseeing the lower realm has been killed, and there are no longer three dragon veins running parallel in the lower realm. Your fate should be worse than mine."
Gu Yifeng sneered, having already considered this connection, and now he didn't hesitate to expose it.
"You are insolent! Since you are unwilling, I will not force you. Let's see how long you can hold out."
The old man sneered, released a wisp of spiritual energy, and immediately the Immortal Execution Sword Prison erupted with a sword light, followed by an even more terrifying suppressive force. He then left without looking back.
Gu Yifeng naturally had to feign a painful cry, and only exhaled a breath of turbid air after the old man's breath completely disappeared. Then he calmly sat cross-legged on the ground, with a vortex of spiritual energy shimmering on his body, constantly dissolving the suppressing power.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully checking in. You have received the reward: Sword Immortal Body."
As he completed his sign-in for the day, a mysterious seven-colored light surged into Gu Yifeng's body, bringing a sense of comfort. After about an incense stick's time, he felt completely refreshed, and his understanding of swordsmanship also increased dramatically.
The so-called Sword Immortal Body not only possesses extra talent in sword comprehension, but also gains an additional sword move with each breakthrough in sword cultivation, giving it absolute dominance over other sword cultivators.
As for the current Immortal Slaughtering Sword Prison, even if it is not resolved, it will not have much impact on him, because the Sword Immortal's Holy Body has a natural affinity for swords, and the power of all sword formations and sword moves will be reduced by 30% for him.
This is the power of talent. Gu Yifeng obtained it by luck through signing in, but some people are born sword immortals and can crush many sword cultivators from a young age. This is the difference.
Feeling the immense power within him, he pointed a finger, and the almost dissipated low-end version of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation flashed with seven colors, hidden in the four corners, and the ripples it emitted were comparable to those of the Condensation Realm.
Such a significant improvement is truly exhilarating.
After Gu Yifeng finished sensing, he focused his mind inward, and the changes in his dantian, where the Qi transformed into the Three Pure Ones, were quite obvious. At this moment, the essence contained within the spiritual energy ball had transformed into the shape of an infant, with eyebrows and eyes almost exactly the same as his.
Looking at the three infant-like figures, a strange feeling instantly arose in his heart. With a thought, the three infants opened their eyes at the same time, looked at each other, and spread out a cultivation level of the late peak of the Opening Mansion Realm.
Even before it takes shape, its cultivation level is already the same as that of the original body; this is the wonder of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
After confirming that the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique was progressing well, Gu Yifeng closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, waiting for the next day to arrive. He was really bored in this sword prison, and only cultivation could pass the time.
He woke up on time at midnight the next day and activated the system to check in.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in and received a reward: one Void God Pill."
The system's voice faded away, and then a pill instantly fell into his arms. Gu Yifeng looked at the round pill, which was dark purple and had seven-colored patterns on it, making it look quite strange.
The method of identification using the Hidden Eye was activated, and a surge of information immediately flooded into his mind.
"Phantom Spirit Pill: A seventh-grade pill. After ingestion, it will form a wisp of illusory divine soul, which can be used as a medium to entrust one's cultivation to break through to the Condensation Spirit Realm. For cultivators who have not yet cultivated a suitable divine soul, they can ingest this pill to break through their realm first."
"After cultivating the divine soul, one only needs to integrate the divine soul with cultivation level to perfectly transition to the True Condensation Realm."
Looking at the aura in his mind, Gu Yifeng's breathing became rapid. He never expected that there was such a heaven-defying pill. This was undoubtedly a case of being blinded by a leaf, obscuring the human body and the heavenly way, forcibly breaking through his cultivation to the Condensation Realm.
However, this method can only be used by those at the Concentration Realm. Moreover, the Void God Pill is a seventh-grade pill, which means that only a seventh-grade alchemist could possibly refine it. At least a master at the Void Realm is needed to reach this grade.
Thinking of this, Gu Yifeng swallowed the pill without hesitation. The next moment, powerful medicinal power surged into his spiritual platform and then transformed into a phantom soul shell.
Even if he didn't use his own soul to sense it, he wouldn't be able to tell that it was a fake soul shell.
The moment the outer shell appeared, a phantom image of Gu Yifeng also emerged in the dantian, sitting cross-legged in the void, and the spiritual power in the dantian immediately surged towards this phantom image.
A violent suction force erupted from his body, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy. In order to avoid being discovered by the outside world, Gu Yifeng took out the spirit stones from his spatial ring without hesitation to replace the spiritual energy.
In this way, the commotion around them gradually subsided. It took a full thousand low-grade spirit stones to finally calm things down and slowly feed the illusory image in his dantian.
"Pop!"
Until the phantom opened its eyes, a clear sound rang out from within its body, and the bottleneck between the Opening Mansion Realm and the Condensing Spirit Realm was instantly broken. Its realm continued to soar until it stopped at the peak of the early stage of the Condensing Spirit Realm.
This pause is not due to a lack of potential, but rather because of the Void God Pill.
This is the only drawback of the False God Pill: before it merges with the true divine soul, the user's strength will only stagnate at the peak of the early stage of the Condensation Realm, unable to advance any further.
Even now, Gu Yifeng can clearly feel the longing emanating from the illusory figure within his dantian—a longing for the only earth-attribute divine soul within his spiritual platform.
Once the fusion is complete, his cultivation level can break through instantly. Not to mention the mid-stage of the Condensation Realm, it's even possible for him to reach the late stage. After all, he now possesses two special physiques, which give him a great affinity for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and his bottlenecks have been significantly reduced.
This also highlights the importance of talent in cultivation; the two physical attributes greatly reduce the difficulty of his cultivation.
However, for the sake of his future, he had no choice but to endure it.
