The qualification to advance to the Immortal Core!

This is not a price that can be taken lightly. Although the nine great immortal sects have resources in this area, they are all for one person only!

If outsiders want to be taken care of, it will be impossible unless they have made considerable contributions.

Strictly speaking, Gu Dan did not provide much help in this operation of killing the Dragon King - as for killing a Dragon King? Sorry, this is not enough to be promoted to the qualification of flawless golden elixir!

But since the old Taoist said so, he is naturally optimistic about Gu Dan's future.

After all, he was a master who had established his foundation and was preparing to advance to the golden elixir realm. Wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't smelt the flawless golden elixir? After establishing the foundation, each major realm had its own watershed.

One step wrong, every step wrong.

It is common to form a golden elixir today, but it will be extremely difficult to form a Nascent Soul tomorrow. Not only is the combat power far inferior to the flawless golden elixir, but the future prospects are also the same!

Any cultivator who has ambitions for himself must be prepared before condensing the golden elixir. He must decide whether to accept the cruel reality or fight with all his might.

For others, the flawless golden elixir might be enough.

But Gu Dan already knew that there was a higher method above the flawless golden elixir! It would be fine if he didn't know, and he would be satisfied, but now that he already knew, how could he let it go?

After all, whether it is the future heavenly calamity of falling Dao or the Taoist master who has never shown his face until now, you can tell from the name that they are not ordinary things.

If he doesn't pursue the limit and just relies on practicing step by step, he is afraid that he will never be able to keep up in his lifetime.

Immortality? This is certainly what Gu Dan relies on, and it is also Gu Dan’s greatest confidence in the world.

But when one reaches the immortal path, the effectiveness of this reliance is greatly weakened.

It's not just because the life span of the cultivators has increased greatly, but it's also said that after reaching the state of transformation, the cultivators can live as long as the heaven and earth! It's equivalent to everyone having the ability to [live as long as the heaven]. As for whether there are any negative effects, Gu Dan doesn't know now, but for him, this is definitely not good news.

For those strongest people who truly stand at the top of the world of immortal cultivation and are hard to even see, it is useless to simply rely on longevity and tactics like living an old man.

Sooner or later, they will have to come into contact - according to the information left to him by Venerable Bai Lian, when he breaks through to the state of incarnation and proves his own Dao Fruit, the Dao Lord's List of Gods will appear.

Either accept it as a dog or die.

Before that, during the final period when Gu Dan was accumulating strength, there was no room for indecision.

Gu Dan replied quickly, "Thank you for your kindness. But I still need to polish my realm for a while. How about I make a decision after some time?"

"That's fine."

The old Taoist nodded slightly. He had naturally investigated Gu Dan's background thoroughly and knew that he had only been promoted to the late foundation-building stage a few months ago. There was nothing wrong with this reason.

"Wang Qianjun, you have also made contributions, what do you want?"

Gu Dan's reward was the easiest to give. It was just a little more expensive. At least in the eyes of the old Taoist, it was definitely to his liking. The rest were the most troublesome.

"Please ask the senior to find the Sword Pavilion to infuse the Qianjun Sword with spirit!"

Wang Qianjun said without hesitation.

Among the nine immortal sects, it is hard to say who is the best at attacking.

But if we were to ask who is the best at using a sword, it would undoubtedly be Jiange.

There is a sword tomb hidden inside the Sword Pavilion, which contains the broken swords and replacement swords of all the disciples and elders in the sect, and it contains the supreme sword intent.

As a sword wielder, Wang Qianjun did not join the Sword Pavilion, but he also wanted the sword in his hand to have this kind of good fortune. Otherwise, he would not have accompanied Zhen Chi to take the risk.

"Success or failure is not up to you when it comes to infusing spirits. I'll go tell you about those guys at Jian Ge later."

The old Taoist stroked his gray beard and spoke slowly.

"Thank you, senior."

Wang Qianjun also clasped his fists and bowed.

"Alright, you two youngsters, go out first. I wonder what the three heroes want?"

The old Taoist's gaze was already directed at Ying Yao and the others.

As the main force that truly killed the Dragon Emperor, the level and strength of support provided by the nine major immortal sects cannot be generalized.

However, what was to be discussed next would inevitably involve the core secrets of the nine great immortal sects, so people like Wang Qianjun and Gu Dan would naturally not continue to stand there and be an eyesore.

Before leaving, Gu Dan glanced at Zhen Chi.

Zhen Chi looked back and smiled gently.

I guess he hasn't forgotten the Dao Yun Jin Dan method he promised to Gu Dan.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Dan and Wang Qianjun said goodbye for the time being and went directly to the retreat room opened by the Xianzong Alliance. They spent spirit stones to open a top-notch retreat room, which was said to be the kind that even a Nascent Soul Master could not easily break into.

For a room of this level, ordinary golden elixirs cannot be afforded unless one is preparing to break through.

But now Gu Dan's vision has been improved and is no longer the same as before.

Just look at the kind of people he associates with now and you will know that if he wants to compete with those guys, or even be better than them, it is impossible without some real skills.

Coincidentally, he has a real skill that has accompanied him for a long time and can continue to become stronger.

The door of the retreat room was completely closed. In a space of about ten feet, Gu Dan, wearing a black robe, was sitting quietly in the center.

Beside him and around him, there was pure spiritual energy floating like mist and air, as if it was surrounded by a special ribbon. There was no need for him to absorb it deliberately, as it eagerly swarmed into his body.

It is said that in ancient times, in addition to their own step-by-step practice, there were other ways for monks to advance and make breakthroughs, such as enlightenment.

Gu Dan had briefly come into contact with the state of Zuowang several times, which was somewhat similar to that state.

However, nowadays, advancement in the world of immortal cultivation does not involve those fancy things, especially in the first two realms. It only depends on one's own accumulation, and once you have accumulated enough, everything will come naturally.

Considering Gu Dan's aptitude as a great Dao body, it was a piece of cake for him to absorb and refine spiritual energy. A few short months might be just enough for others to consolidate their realm, but for Gu Dan, it was enough time for him to prepare himself for the golden elixir.

There is no extra benefit in continuing to practice in the foundation-building stage. After all, this thing is different from [Grand Master] or [Flawless Golden Pill], and I haven't heard of any other way to go.

Moreover, as his realm improved, he came into contact with more and more people. He was still struggling to build his foundation, and his strength was too low. The most urgent thing was to improve his strength first. No matter what, strength was the foundation on which he could rely! As soon as he thought about it, a bottle carved from white jade appeared in Gu Dan's hand.

The white jade bottle feels warm to the touch, like holding a piece of warm jade. It is carved with intricate patterns, exquisite and elegant. It would be a priceless treasure even in the mortal world.

For Gu Dan, the most valuable things are what is inside.

He opened the bottle and took a quick look.

The bright red color circulated freely in the white jade bottle, and a strong aura emanated from it, with the might of a dragon! It was no exaggeration to say that the aura emitted by the dragon blood in his hand alone was enough to scare the little demons below the demon king to death!

Even a centipede would have a hard time stiffening after death, let alone a dragon emperor?

Even if he died, his refined power could not be easily mobilized.

The blood of the Dragon Emperor is both a tonic and a supreme poison.

If you really want to use it, it is definitely not like in the story, where you just pour the dragon blood on your body to absorb and refine the power in it, and bathe in the dragon blood to sanctify your body.

On the contrary, it requires constant sacrifice and refinement with great magical power, stripping away all the power belonging to the Dragon Emperor in his blood, and turning the poison into a precious medicine, before it has real value.

But for Gu Dan, it doesn't have to be so troublesome.

He held the white jade bottle in his left hand and waved it gently with his right hand.

A touch of bright red appeared in the right hand.

The bright red spot was not big. If it was completely gathered together, it would only be the size of a fingernail. It was churning and stirring like some kind of air flow or some kind of living thing.

If you observe it with your divine eye, you will find that the things churning inside are countless densely packed but incomplete special lines.

What emerged was naturally the acquired Qi refined by Gu Dan!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Since the acquired Qi was refined, there has been no change in all these years, and it has not increased along with Gu Dan's strength.

This is what is called a broken road. Even if you manage to break through by chance, the future is bleak and it will be extremely difficult to go further.

The glory of the ancient times is gone forever. Now is the era of immortals. All other great ways are suppressed by the immortals. The Tao is no longer prominent and the glory is gone.

But there is still some strength to spare!

Looking at the acquired blood in his hand, Gu Dan's eyes also showed a hint of expectation, "Go, go."

Feeling the slight throbbing coming from the blood Qi, Gu Dan let go of his control over the blood Qi.

In just a moment, the blood energy turned into a stream of light and without any need for Gu Dan's control, it had already flowed into the white jade bottle in his hand.

To be precise, it should have flown towards the Dragon Emperor's blood in the white jade bottle!

Even the acquired Qi can be strengthened, it’s just that the conditions are more stringent.

The acquired blood Qi today was condensed after a long time when Gu Dan was a grandmaster. It was no exaggeration to say that it was his own heart blood. It was even more precious than that.

But a grand master is only comparable to an ordinary golden elixir. With the help of blood qi, after achieving the innate state, it is probably equivalent to the flawless golden elixir in the realm of immortal cultivation.

This might be enough for others, but for Gu Dan, it was not enough! The blood Qi that remained in place could no longer keep up with his growing strength.

Fortunately, there are other ways to strengthen it.

As the blood Qi flew into the white jade bottle like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, the Dragon Emperor's blood in the white jade bottle seemed to have sensed the danger. The terrifying blood-colored waves kept beating against it, and even ordinary demon kings could not endure it.

The Dragon Emperor was of course dead, but his blood still contained spirituality that had not been eliminated. Gu Dan had not refined it in advance, so it was normal for him to sense danger and resist.

However, no matter how fiercely the Dragon Emperor's blood resisted, it seemed to be completely defenseless against the blood qi.

A bloody chain of order emerged, like an invisible mouth, like the legendary Taotie. Wherever it passed, the blood lost its luster.

As the original power in the Dragon Emperor's blood was gradually absorbed, the power in the blood became stronger and stronger. The blood energy could be seen growing stronger with the naked eye, like a giant dragon trapped in a sea of ​​blood, causing trouble.

Witnessing the scene before him, Gu Dan seemed to be thinking about something.

"For blood qi, even for acquired blood qi, the restraining effect on qi and blood is particularly obvious. The same type of power will be greatly reduced when facing it."

Gu Danpan thought, stroking his chin, "It's a pity that I haven't heard of the cultivator's Qi, otherwise, wouldn't it be able to suppress all the cultivators if I took it out?"

Some imagination can only make yourself slightly excited.

All acquired Qi corresponds to the innate Qi that once existed.

The innate Qi appears first, and then the Qigong practitioners, who cannot obtain it, create the acquired Qi by imitating the innate Qi.

In the final analysis, acquired Qi is a crude imitation rather than one's own creation.

If there really is someone who can create something out of nothing and produce the so-called [cultivator's qi] of innate qi, then he would be able to suppress all cultivators without even having to use it.

After all, according to Qigong practitioners, the innate Qi is the most precious treasure in the world, and anyone who obtains any one of it is considered to have attained enlightenment.

His thoughts wandered for a short while, and when he came back to his senses, the blood qi had been completely devoured and strengthened! The white jade bottle looked like it was only the size of a person's palm, but in fact, the blood of the Dragon King contained in it could easily fill a small lake.

But under the devouring of blood energy, in just a short moment, it had lost its essential power and turned into a dull pool of dead water, losing all its brilliance.

On the contrary, the blood qi grew vigorously, from the size of a fingernail to the size of half of Gu Dan's palm.

At this time, if you look at the blood Qi with your divine power of the heavenly eye, you will easily find that the special patterns inside the blood Qi seem to be partially completed. This is the first time that the blood Qi has benefited from it, and the effect is the most obvious.

"How strong can it be after becoming stronger?"

A hint of curiosity also appeared in Gu Dan's eyes. After a little thought, he took out a piece of golden bark from the storage bag.

The bark is only the size of a palm, and is as sharp as gold.

It was the material left over from the creation of the Nine Dragons Golden Light Formation for the Xia Dynasty's imperial palace. It was the bark of the thousand-year-old golden gui tree.

This thing is usually the main material of the flying boat. In terms of firmness and resistance to spiritual power, it is no less than some Yuanying masters! The most important thing is that blood qi has no restraining effect on it. It is best to use the bark of the thousand-year-old Jingui wood to test the power of blood qi.

"go!"

With a thought, the blood energy has already found the target and pounced on it!

"Sizzle~"

It was like the collision of ice and fire. Wherever the blood qi passed, the bark of the thousand-year-old Jingui wood was completely eaten and shattered to the ground, but it was not eaten by the strengthened blood qi.

But Gu Dan was very satisfied with this destructive power!

Even if he was a Yuanying Master, the blood qi could still give him a big blow if he was caught off guard! Just when Gu Dan was having a great time, the communication talisman shone brightly.

Zhen Chi is in contact with him.

"Are you done? The Dao Yun Jindan is finally going to be unveiled!"

A hint of joy appeared on Gu Dan's face. It was really a double happiness! (End of this chapter)
