One month later.

Deep in another mountain range.

Shen Lian opened up a new cave, and as for the old monster Zi Yang, he was sent into the cave of the Five Elements Ship.

Then, he threw the Five Elements Ship into the depths of the earth thirty miles away.

Unable to control the Nascent Soul for the time being, Shen Lian made a prompt decision and chose to make peace.

Throwing Zi Yang thirty miles away is the best method he can use at the moment.

We can't let this old guy follow me so closely. Firstly, I'm not used to it. Secondly, the old Yuanying monster has very sharp eyes and it would be bad if he saw something.

It’s not that Shen Lian doesn’t want to conclude the Hou Tu Contract, but his current ability is only enough to make a third-level Hou Tu Contract, and its effectiveness will be weakened when used on a fourth-level Nascent Soul.

This old fellow Zi Yang even has a method to repair the foundation of the Golden Elixir Dao, so he may have some means to conceal the contract.

Instead of being busy doing meaningless things, it is better to do nothing.

At least for now, the two of them seem to be very sweet and in cahoots with each other.

Zi Yang had also entered the cave heaven inside the Five Elements Ship, so Shen Lian no longer needed to keep the matter secret.

Zi Yang did not protest against Shen Lian locking him up in the cave. He acted as if it didn't matter to Shen Lian and that he wanted to use his love to influence Shen Lian.

An old Yuanying monster is here to kill him.

Shen Lian was almost losing his mind.

I searched all over the southern part of the world, but could I find such a shameless old man? How could such a thing appear in the Lingxi Immortal Cultivation World?

He even suspected that the old fellow Zi Yang's Nascent Soul was damaged and his brain was flying.

The main purpose of making peace with Zi Yang was to find out the details of this old demon and then formulate a detailed plan for Ga Ying.

As for the cave, he was not planning to cultivate spiritual veins or grow spiritual medicines for the time being. He was afraid that this old guy would use his spiritual medicines to repair his Nascent Soul.

It is impossible for him to help the enemy. He would rather eat it raw than give Zi Yang a leaf.

In the absence of ka...

Shen Lian shook his head. It was still difficult to kill Zi Yang in a short time. He couldn't let him stay in the cave forever. He had to find a way to find a place for him to live.

The reason for changing the location was mainly because the flames from the previous explosion were too large and attracted other monks.

Old Monster Zi Yang has also become different from what was rumored. The title of Troublemaker is a thing of the past.

Haoying doesn’t mention his past achievements, he is now called Anwen Xiaoying.

Shen Lian was also thinking secretly, this old guy was hated by everyone back then, but he stole a lot of good things and no one knew where he hid them.

Anything that Zi Yang could snatch must be at least of the fourth rank.

Come to think of it, the old guy is quite fat.

After calming down, Shen Lian focused on his own cultivation.

The follow-up exercises are available.

The elixir for practicing elixir is available.

There are also new secret methods of the soul.

The next step is to cultivate to the peak of the early stage of the Golden Elixir as quickly as possible and condense the first Golden Elixir magical power.

Before starting, Shen Lian fiddled with it for a while.

"The slightest movement shakes the talisman array."

“Multifunctional demon internet of things.”

"The third-order Nine Palace Forbidden Spirit Formation."

…

The creator of the so-called "Little by Little Thing Can Move the Grass" talisman formation was Shen Lian himself.

He used large and small divine mind talismans as guides and circled around the cave where he practiced.

These talismans are made of animal skins and jade, and vary in size and power.

It's so small that it's not even an inch in size, but it's very sensitive. If there's even the slightest bit of divine consciousness leaking out, it can activate it, and at the same time, activate the large divine consciousness talisman nearby.

As for the functional monster Internet of Things, they are naturally Dahei and Erwan. From the retreat cave to the place where Ziyang was thrown away, it was densely packed with black-horned ants.

There are still 20,000 in the air.

The remaining third level is the Nine Palaces Forbidden Spirit Array, which is a formation for suppressing divine thoughts.

After the formation was set up, Shen Lian gave it a try. His divine sense, which was close to 7,500 feet of Qi, was blocked by about 70%.

So he set up three stacked formations in succession and also set up a mirage formation.

Shen Lian went to great lengths to do all this as a test; he wanted to see how much strength Zi Yang had left.

Whenever he finds out that the old man is not worthy of his reputation, he will immediately give him a decent set of clothes.

"go."

Outside the cave, a flash of light appeared in Shen Lian's hand, and one puppet jade talisman after another rushed into the space between the earth and rocks.

…

After making these arrangements, Shen Lian returned to the cave and sat cross-legged. The five elements of magic power in his body began to circulate, and his breath quickly calmed down.

Each level of the Five Qis Converging to the Origin Technique corresponds to a realm, and he had already practiced to the early stage of the fourth level.

He practiced again mainly because the new follow-up skills he had acquired were more detailed than those he had practiced before.

Half a month later, Shen Lian slowly opened his eyes. The five elements of spiritual power in his body roamed everywhere, flowing into his dantian like mercury, and was nourished by the five-colored elixir released by the golden elixir.

He was not in a hurry to practice the spells that came with the exercises. He planned to first refine the Three-Pattern Qingxu Pill to improve his cultivation, and then practice the spells later.

However, his alchemy furnace was preparing Zi Yang. Shen Lian thought that after all, he was refining a third-level elixir, so he might as well refine an alchemy furnace first.

…

Thirty miles underground, the Five Elements Ship lay quietly in a narrow cave, surrounded by black, crystal-clear eyeballs.

"Little ones, open your eyes wide."

Dahei was lying on the side, also staring at the Five Elements Ship with his big eyes.

In the cave inside the Five Elements Ship, Zi Yang was sitting cross-legged in the air above the center, with his aura floating around.

Wherever he looked, it was dry and dull, without even a trace of spiritual energy.

"I have traveled across the two great immortal cultivation worlds of Lingxi and Tiannan, and escaped from the hands of a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. How can a mere small cave heaven stop me?"

Zi Yang's Nascent Soul took a look at the empty space around him, and then a dark light flashed on his Nascent Soul.

"The little bug's brain is still too small."

Outside, when Dahei and the others were looking at the Five Elements Ship, a dark light flashed by and did not attract the attention of the black-horned ants at all.

"How can a small third-level magic weapon stop me? Did I escape from Lingxi to Tiannan in vain?"

"Even if you don't let me see it, I still want to see it."

Zi Yang turned into a wisp of gentle breeze that blew across the hills and whizzed towards the cave where Shen Lian was in seclusion.

He really had no ill will towards Shen Lian, at least not yet.

During the cooperation period, we must be sincere and loyal. When we are not sincere, it is of course the time for non-cooperation.

Outside the cave.

A thought as gentle as the breeze clung to a blade of grass.

"As expected of a formation master."

As soon as he got close to Zi Yang, he sensed the existence of the formation. His mind wandered outside the formation, looking for an opportunity to infiltrate it.

"Since you are here, please come in!"

Suddenly, white mist rose from the formation outside the cave, and a portal about ten feet in size appeared in the mist. Two puppets emerged from the ground and made an inviting gesture.

“We’ve been discovered.”

Zi Yang was stunned immediately.

"The youngster cheated me."

Zi Yang didn't move, he just stayed quietly on the grass leaves.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the two puppet figures sank back into the ground, and the rolling fog covered the door again.

"Since you are here, please come in!"

After another half a quarter of an hour, the puppet figure emerged from the mud again.

"It's just a trifle."

Zi Yang snorted. He thought he could be fooled by such a little trick.

He had fallen into more traps than Shen Lian had eaten, and had been beaten more times...

What kind of trap has the ancestor Ziyang not stepped into? It's nothing, just practice.

The next moment, Zi Yang's divine consciousness flew up and rushed into the portal that appeared in the mist.

Moreover, he passed through the Nine Palaces Forbidden Spirit Array with ease.

…

In the cave, Shen Lian controlled the spiritual fire, and a pill furnace with round ears rolled up and down in the flames.

Soon, wisps of flames were absorbed into the alchemy furnace, and the temperature in the cave slowly dropped.

"call."

Bringing the alchemy furnace closer, Shen Lian let out a light breath and a wry smile appeared on his face.

"Senior, after watching for so long, do you want to learn how to refine weapons?"

In the empty cave, an illusory figure appeared in a flash of fire.

"Your divine sense is sharper than I thought."

However.

The moment he saw Zi Yang appear, Shen Lian's pupils shrank sharply.

Shit! A Nascent Soul is a Nascent Soul. You can’t defend yourself against it.

His triple defense of talisman array, monster internet of things, and formation could not defend against any disturbance.

It came really quietly.

The danger level has been raised to the highest level.

"No, you...young friend cheated me."

Shen Lian's expression changed quickly, but there was no way he could hide in front of the Nascent Soul.

He really pretended to be like that, with an expression of sighing helplessness.

Zi Yang took a few steps forward and began to look at the alchemy furnace in Shen Lian's hand, showing great interest.

"Young friend, are you still an alchemist?"

"The power of the Nascent Soul is so terrifying."

Without responding to Zi Yang's doubt, Shen Lian sighed and realized that he was just deceiving Zi Yang.

However, he also noticed that Zi Yang was very interested in the alchemy furnace and methods he used to refine the pills, otherwise he might not have been able to trick him out.

It's amazing to have an old Peeping Tom around.

"Formation, weapon refining, and pill refining."

As he spoke, Zi Yang thought of the puppets he saw outside, "There are also puppets. My dear friend, do you have other skills that I don't know about?"

"It seems that you are also a person of great fortune."

Zi Yang also started to guess in his mind at this moment. He had observed Shen Lian's moves and was somewhat certain that Shen Lian was not a cultivator from a sect.

But where did this good fortune come from? Being proficient in all kinds of immortal cultivation arts is no longer a matter of chance, it requires a great deal of understanding.

In the early stages of cultivation, spiritual roots are important, but in the later stages, understanding is the most important.

The more Zi Yang talked, the more Shen Lian wanted to kill this old guy.

There is nothing else to blame. If you want to blame someone, blame Zi Yang for having already found a way to die.

"My friend, how about we go to the Central Continent and buy a fourth-level Hou Tu contract?"

At this moment, Zi Yang suddenly blurted out something.

Somehow, he suddenly felt a little cold.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, the Five Elements Ship turned into a stream of light and flew in from outside and fell into Shen Lian's hands.

It can't be prevented, and there's no point in preventing it.

He was puzzled. Is Yuanying really that powerful?

This is his natal magic weapon. Although Shen Lian had long anticipated that he could not imprison Zi Yang, Yuanying's methods were too mysterious and unpredictable.

In his divine sense, the Nascent Soul of the old monster Zi Yang was still sitting cross-legged in the cave.

After sensing his divine thoughts falling, he bowed to him.

Damn it, ancestor.

"Don't worry, my friend. I will stay in solitary confinement and will not spy on you again."

"I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious about your methods."

"You are the one who has great opportunities."

Zi Yang's divine consciousness in the cave turned into a stream of light and flew into the cave with a whoosh, merging with the Nascent Soul inside.

"Remember to buy a fourth-level Hou Tu contract, or you can buy two to consolidate it. I will pay for the spiritual stones. I have hidden a lot of good things."

"Fourth-level Purple Sun Warm Jade."

"Fourth-level Sky Thunder Fire Stone."

…

"There is still half a plant of Bu Tian Zhi, which should be enough to refine an infant-forming pill."

"Fourth-level Sky Mist Immortal Tea, I snatched this back from the Central Continent. Drinking it can increase your spiritual power by up to three thousand feet."

…

"The four thousand year old Puyu fruit is the main ingredient for refining the Nascent Soul Early Stage Advancement to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Breakthrough Pill."

"Five thousand year old Qingming Liulisu, not to mention being refined into elixirs, just eating it raw can increase your spiritual power by five thousand feet.

Why did the old bull nose of Taiyi Sect want to kill me? It was because of this five thousand year old precious medicine that I hid in..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and the old monster Ziyang in the cave seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, and even his breathing dropped to the lowest level.

I have to say that old monster Zi Yang understands people's hearts.

Damn, Shen Lian’s heart was moved by what he said.

Miraculous medicines that are four or five thousand years old are rare in all the major immortal cultivation circles.

Of course, a medicinal age of four or five thousand years does not mean that the spiritual medicine must be four or five thousand years old. In the medicine gardens of some sects, spiritual stones, formations or spiritual liquids will be used to accelerate the accumulation of the medicinal age of the spiritual medicine.

It is not a big problem to cultivate a thousand-year-old elixir in four to five hundred years, or even one to two hundred years.

However, after the elixir exceeds a thousand years of age, the difficulty level of cultivation will increase with each thousand years of age.

Nowadays, the world of immortal cultivation generally recognizes that the best soil for growing spiritual medicines is the five-colored soil dug out from the Five Elements Immortal Palace.

This soil has the ability to cultivate spiritual medicines with a medicinal age of over three thousand years within a thousand years by combining various spiritual plant secrets.

The fourth-level spiritual medicine, which is over three thousand years old, is almost always circulated among Yuanying sects and cultivators, and is rarely circulated in the outside world.

This old man Zi Yang definitely did it on purpose.

After being in a trance for a while, Shen Lian calmed down again.

The old monster was setting a trap for him. He was not at all greedy for any three or four thousand year old elixir.

real.

…

Although the old monster Zi Yang had shut himself off and acted as if he was not spying, Shen Lian was not reassured and still threw the magic weapon thirty miles away.

An old fellow like Zi Yang, who has a bad reputation, has almost no bottom line.

Zi Yang has already discovered that he has various skills, so there is no need to hide it any longer. Having said that, Shen Lian did not give up on himself.

After thinking for a long time, he added another protective measure for himself.

If you can’t defend against Zi Yang, you can’t defend against yourself?

He used his mind talisman to create an independent small house of about ten feet in size and crawled into it.

"Here comes the furnace."

Make the elixir first.

Shen Lian grabbed the alchemy furnace that had just been refined and began to refine it. The five elements of spiritual fire transformed into a fire dragon and drilled into the alchemy furnace, refining the spiritual restriction in the furnace.

Shen Lian was not without third-grade, lower-grade Three-Pattern Qingxu Pills. He confiscated more than forty storage rings and found a total of sixty-three Three-Pattern Qingxu Pills, but none of them was of a quality that satisfied him.

The one with the best medicinal power can barely be considered a top-quality product among the lower quality ones. This is still the best thing Shen Lian said. It is still a little short of the average quality.

It can be seen that after reaching the Golden Core level, it is not easy even for the elders of each sect to eat good quality pills.

After refining the alchemy furnace, Shen Lian took out the main ingredient of the Qingxu Pill, the three-leaf Qingxu grass, and more than twenty kinds of auxiliary ingredients.

This was his first time refining a third-level elixir.

The blazing spiritual fire was rolling under the alchemy furnace. Shen Lian put the spiritual medicines into the furnace one by one. His movements were intermittent and not very smooth.

Soon, a green spiritual light shone into the alchemy furnace made of talisman paste.

When the pill was halfway through being refined, the air flow in the cave fluctuated slightly, and Zi Yang's figure appeared in the corner.

However, his figure was extremely blurry and blended with the light in the cave.

His eyes looked towards the talisman alchemy room that was emitting thousands of green rays of light.

"He is indeed a third-level alchemist."

…

“Buzz.”

At this moment, Shen Lian, who was in the process of refining the medicinal power, noticed a slight fluctuation in the corner of his talisman alchemy room.

Like a strand of hair falling, there is no sound.

"Damn it, old man!"

Although he was spied on once again, he did not show it on his face and continued to concentrate on controlling the alchemy furnace.

Shen Lian was actually somewhat happy about Zi Yang's peeping.

This proves that the makeshift talisman alchemy room he built is still effective, and that the Nascent Soul is not invulnerable.

Next, find better materials and modify them to put the old monster inside.

Shen Lian refined a portion of five hundred year old three-leaf Qingxu grass and produced a total of seven three-pattern Qingxu pills.

Among them, there is one high-quality one, two medium-quality ones, and four low-quality ones.

This is certainly not his true strength, but even so, it still surprised Zi Yang who was secretly watching from the side.

After refining this furnace of three-pattern Qingxu Pills, Shen Lian directly put away the furnace.

The surface of this pill is filled with a hazy halo and has three grass-leaf-like patterns.

After resting for half a day, Shen Lian swallowed the top-grade pill in one gulp.

In an instant, the pill dissolved immediately after entering the mouth, forming a green torrent of medicine that rushed into the body.

I just felt my body was filled with surging medicinal power, and there was a gurgling sound inside my body.

The green light produced by the medicine shone through his body, and he immediately began to practice his skills to absorb the medicine into his meridians.

There were deeper spots of light in the green light, which constantly collided with the five-colored golden elixir and were then absorbed by the golden elixir.

The medicinal power of the Three-Pattern Qingxu Pill was extremely powerful. The surging medicinal power turned into green light, covering the space around Shen Lian.

In this regard, Shen Lian could only try his best to practice his skills and transform the medicinal power into his own magic power bit by bit.

…

In the blink of an eye, five years have passed.

[Calm down, insight points +3]

[Calm down, insight points +2]

…

[God has no external things, God's enlightenment point +1]

[Keep calm, insight points +1]

[Calm down, insight points +2]

[God has no external things, God's enlightenment point +1]

…

Inside the cave, Shen Lian was still cultivating. The talisman and alchemy room he was guarding outside had cracked in the middle due to its crude workmanship.

Shen Lian, who had been practicing for a long time without moving, was covered with a layer of dust.

"call!"

In the silence, a roar sounded from Shen Lian's body, covering up the sound he heard in the dark.

The surging magic power was like a mighty river, flowing through his meridians. Compared to when he had just been promoted to the Golden Core stage, Shen Lian felt that his accumulated magic power had doubled.

But he still hasn't reached the peak of the early Jindan stage, let alone advancing to the middle Jindan stage.

Over a period of five years, he swallowed thirteen Three-Pattern Qingxu Pills in succession, five of which were top-grade and eight were mid-grade.

Because he was on guard against old monster Zi Yang, Shen Lian did not dare to refine all of them into top-quality. Fortunately, the medium-quality Three-Line Qingxu Pill did not have many impurities, so it only took a little more time to clean the meridians.

During the past five years, he did not practice all the time. Sometimes he would stop to move around and comprehend the magic spells attached to the Five Qis Converging to the Origin Gong.

As for the old guy Zi Yang.

The two of them entered a tacit understanding stage, and both sides put out their own chips, creating a scene where they were greedy for each other's body.

Of course, in other words, both parties know each other's secrets. No matter who explodes first, the fellow Taoists in the world of immortal cultivation will know the secrets of both people at the same time.

A notorious troublemaker who traveled from the Central Continent of Tiannan to the Southern Continent. He robbed countless sects and robbed countless Nascent Soul cultivators of their elixirs and treasures.

A young Jindan cultivator who is full of secrets and is skilled in formation, alchemy, weapon refining, and puppetry.

As soon as it is revealed, there will be a lot of people who will love these two brothers and rush to help them.

"A grasshopper on a string" is not enough to describe it, it should be described as a hedgehog on a string.

If you dare to stab me, I will stab you.

…

After some activities, Shen Lian returned to the cave and took out a jade slip.

This was the jade slip that the old demon Zi Yang gave to him later, and it recorded the first three levels of the secret soul method, Tiandu Yanshen Fa.

Perhaps he was amazed by his alchemy skills. Not long after he took the first pill, the old monster came out from the Five Elements Ship Cave and handed this pill to him.

However, Shen Lian did not show that he noticed the old monster's spying.

After handing over the jade slip, Old Monster Zi Yang returned to his cave and confined himself there, and has not appeared for the next five years.

Of course, Shen Lian had no way of judging whether he had appeared or not. The talisman alchemy room he had temporarily built had problems soon after, and he could no longer sense the old monster's spiritual fluctuations.

反正，就当他没出来吧。

本来，沈炼很想将这枚玉简甩给梓阳的，他又不是没有神念秘法。

单单是从那几十位金丹修士的储物戒指中，他就翻到了四门神魂秘法。

可惜经过比对后，还是梓阳老怪这个厉害。

没奈何。

梓阳老怪这是想要用高阶灵药，高阶秘法来引诱他合作。

“天都衍神法。”

“后天化凡为真，精气神衍……”

真的，沈炼真的要哭死。

老怪在这枚玉简中还添加了他修炼过程中的注释和感悟，更详细介绍了每一重修行过程中需要的注意事项。

“老夫对天起誓，赠送小友此神法前三重，绝无非分之想，若有半分坏心思，当死于蜕变器灵的天劫之下。”

玉简最后的部分，是梓阳老怪在洞天内并指朝天发誓的场景。

真的。

这让沈炼都生出负罪感了。

好像天南修仙界人人喊打的搞事真君，是他而不是梓阳。

梓阳老怪传授的这门法，比其他几门好了不知道多少倍。

倘若按天地玄黄来区分的话，老怪这门秘法怕是够到了天品，而从储物戒指收出来的四部神魂秘法，最好的也就玄品下等。

饭都被喂到嘴边了，吃还是不吃？

……

这几年的修行下来，在实力的提升的同时，沈炼的神魂也有了提升，如今神念已经达到了八千九百丈六十丈。

沉吟后，他决定还是修天都衍神法。

有了梓阳老怪的讲解，本来需要数十年才能参悟天都衍神法，仅仅两年的时间，沈炼将前面三重融会贯通。

神念海中。

神魂小人如本尊一般盘坐，身上泛起一圈圈淡淡五色的神念涟漪。

天都衍神法第一重，对应的是练气层次，可增幅修士神魂二到三倍。

当然，是练气九重修士的二到三倍。

此刻，沈炼的神念海边缘位置开始了小小的扩张，让他的神念小范围的扩张到了九千一百九十丈，增加了两百三十丈左右。

这点对如今的沈炼不算啥，倘若放在练气层次，那可就相当恐怖了。

哪怕他现在已经是金丹层次，此秘法依旧让神念出现了提升，足以看出这门神魂秘法的品质之高。

天都衍神法第二重，神念增加五百丈。

第三重，神念增加两千三百丈。

当沈炼将前面三重衍神法修炼完成后，已经又过了一年多时间。

而他的神念强度达到了一万一千九百九十丈。

金丹中期修士的神念强度，在六千到一万两千丈之间，此刻沈炼说自己神念媲美金丹后期，一点问题都没有。

仅仅只是重修了一门神魂秘法，就让他神念增幅了三千余丈。

不仅如此，还对神念有着一定程度的纯化。

由此也可以看得出来，秘法的好坏对修士的影响有多大。

大宗门出来的金丹修士，远不是小宗门金丹可比拟的。

这还是前三重，那第四重元婴期内，难不成还能增幅几万丈的神念？ 收功之后，沈炼摇头苦笑，梓阳绝对是故意的。

“完了，这老东西要拿捏他了。”

将欲取之，必先与之，这么简单的道理他怎么能不懂呢。

天都衍神法并不仅仅增幅和壮大神魂，还包括了神念和防御之法，可以说极为的全面。

这可比当年那个生啃道友的魔功强太多了。

……

修炼完了衍神法后，沈炼又一次开炉炼制三纹清虚丹。

从瀚海秘境中得到的灵药，足够他目前境界修炼所用。

动辄数年闭关的情况，对于金丹修士来说十分平常，沈炼沉浸在修行中，时间就这样一点点流逝着。

在足够的三纹清虚丹的辅助下，又过了八年，在修炼和参悟法术交替进行下，他的境界终于修炼到了金丹初期巅峰。

丹田内，五行法力汩汩如浆汞，托着五行金丹缓缓的转动着。

丹丸外表积蓄了浓郁的五色丹气，如同云雾般笼罩了丹田海的上方。

另外，在丹田海的最深处，那截‘棍’状的五色灵根外，又一次诞生了稀薄的五色灵雾。

当初他就是靠着丹丸衍生的精纯丹气，和这一缕五色灵雾的加持，方才干掉云澜。

这些年来，沈炼早就已经察觉出来，丹气和灵根外的灵雾，虽说都是五彩呈现雾气状，可两者完全不是同一种东西。

萦绕在灵根外的五色灵雾，气息更加的玄妙，但以他目前的认知来说，无法来解释这个东西。

相比于炼丹、炼器的手艺，这才是沈炼最根本的秘密所在，好在灵根属于修士内敛的秘密，哪怕是元婴都难以窥视。

境界提升到金丹初期巅峰，沈炼的神念也再一次提升起来，达到了一万四千六百丈，真正的迈入金丹后期的神念强度。

除了境界和神念的提升外，他也将《五气朝元功》附带的三门法术，分别参悟了出来。

三种法术中，纯阳炼真火他参悟的最快，已经达到了第三重衍生出纯净的赤炎真火。

按照有关纯阳炼真火的描述中，第三重衍变出来的火焰颜色越深，威力就越强大。

但他由于天衍五行法力的原因，本来应该是赤色的赤炎真火，表面泛着一丝金白之色。

本来沈炼的五行法力质量，就能媲美云澜这等金丹大圆满的质量，此刻施展纯阳炼真火这道法术后，威力也比之前更胜一筹。

但和真正的金丹大圆满比起来，沈炼也有自知之明，他的持久力不行。

朝元剑术的参悟次于纯阳炼真火，倒不是他对剑术没有天赋，这道法术最开始对于天赋的要求并不是那么高。

目前，他已经做到了凝练五行剑气的程度。

至于法术阴阳变才刚刚入门，但此法术威力巨大，是三种法术中潜力和威力最强的。

除了参悟这三门功法附带的法术外，沈炼另外又参悟了三门。

一门是之前就修行的五行禁断，另外两门是从瀚海收获中中挑出来的《谛听术》和《黑瞳金光术》。

后面这两门属于偏门法术，用来听和看的。

常年累月的修行和参悟，哪怕是金丹修士又会感到心情愤懑。

在晋升金丹初期巅峰后，沈炼也休息了半个多月时间，顺便给自己换了一个老巢。

“你们三个啊，也出来透透气，老是这么窝着修行也不行。”

新的洞府中，沈炼将三头灵兽放了出来。

多年修行之下，大黑修炼的颓势又一次凸显出来，反倒是二万后来居上，不仅晋升到了二阶后期，还反超了大黑的二阶中期。

至于三千，同样晋升到了二阶后期。

主要是这些年，沈炼光顾着自己了，把三个小家伙放养了，他若是好好培养的话，三个小家伙指定还能提升一些。

“主人，我感觉再有几颗二阶妖兽的尸体或者妖丹，我就能进阶二阶大圆满了。”

二万扑腾了两下翅膀，凑了上来。

“主人，我感觉我还是不行。”

大黑的钳子落在地上，两只本来凸起的黑色眼睛也耷拉下来。

沈炼拍了拍大黑的黑角。

“等忙完这段时间，好好给你们调理调理，连三阶都不是出去岂不是丢我的人。”

“大黑哥，主人的安稳全靠你。”

二万凑在大黑面前，嘀嘀咕咕。

“噗，二万说的对。”三千吐了个泡泡。

看着三个灵兽凑到一起，沈炼突然想起来，伸出手朝着发髻深处抓去。

摸了两下后，又摸了两下。

没了！

啥时候走的，他竟然不知道。

这虫子怎么神出鬼没的。

……

半个月后，沈炼盘坐在洞府中，这次他倒是没有再将梓阳给扔出去。

这么多年了，该试探的也试探了。

目前，两人的默契算是进入了蜜月期。

当然，梓阳老怪先掏了神魂秘法表现出了诚意，接下来他也得拿出点诚意来，不然的话老怪说不定会翻脸。

洞天内，梓阳老怪依旧一副无精打采的样子，小小的元婴上窟窿连着窟窿，但看他的神色一点也不在意。

沈炼则是开始参悟天衍五行遁术。

金丹期可以烙印丹道神通，他准备将跑路遁术化为自己的第一道神通。

本来嘛，在刚刚晋升金丹的时候，沈炼还在犹豫，是先凝练遁术还是凝练雷法。

可经过瀚海秘境这么一闹，他觉得有个跑路的神通，你好我好大家好。

另外，加上五行雷法他还没有收集全，等收集全了再凝练成神通也不迟。

金丹修士凝练神通，就是将法术的施法过程，进行融会贯通压缩在金丹之上。

按照沈炼的构想，他的这道遁术神通，最起码要将他瞬息间遁出至少三百里外。

这个三百里也不他瞎扯的，而是金丹大圆满中的绝强存在，神念可超过五万丈，就是三百里的距离。

可以说三百里是金丹大圆满的界限，也是他的最低标准，最好能超过五百里才好。

当然了，要是千里的话那就更棒了。

In that case, even facing an early Nascent Soul cultivator, he would be able to step on his heels easily.

The power of the golden elixir supernatural power is not static. As the cultivator's realm improves, the power of the supernatural power will also increase.

Moreover, even if one's realm is stuck, some people can spend time polishing it and improve their supernatural powers.

"Tian Yan Five Elements Escape Technique."

Shen Lian took out the fragment of the scroll he had obtained at the beginning, but at this point, the incomplete part was nothing to him. He had already made up for the missing part through the spoils of war.

"Tian Yan, Tian Yan, the names are the same."

Shen Lian muttered to himself in his heart. Ever since Zi Yang caught up with him, he had not muttered to himself again. Whatever he had, he would just talk to himself in his mind.

“I don’t know what the difference is between my magical power, the Five Elements Realm, and the Golden Core magical power.”

After some thought, Shen Lian plunged into the busy work of practicing the art of escape.

The golden elixir magical power can only be imprinted once, and it is extremely difficult to modify it later. If there is any loss in the condensation process, it will affect the future increase in power.

Normally, the power would double as the realm was promoted, but because something went wrong when it was condensed into a magical power, the power could only be increased by 90%. Isn't that too much of a loss?

A small 10% may seem insignificant, but sometimes it can be that small 10% that makes the difference.

The Tianyan Five Elements Escape Technique is all-encompassing and covers a wide range of aspects. The Five Elements are just a general outline. Shen Lian did not overestimate his ability to do everything, so he could only strive to be as comprehensive as possible.

Based on the Five Elements and adding in all the mysteries of the art of escape, the total number of variations covered is thousands, or even tens of thousands.

The medium that the escape technique relies on is based on the spirits of heaven and earth, and there are changes between them.

These require too much.

This made Shen Lian hesitate.

Of course, the simplest method is to rely on the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth as a medium.

But there are countless changes within the five elements.

When performing the escape technique, it is impossible that there will be just a desert or an ocean. It is very likely that spiritual objects with the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth will appear along the way.

These need to be identified and responded to in the instant of escaping.

It is also thanks to Shen Lian's own inheritance, which covers refining equipment, alchemy, puppets, formations and so on. Each inheritance introduces countless spiritual objects in detail.

No other monk could have such rich knowledge.

This made Shen Lian feel very lucky.

…

"Are you possessed?"

Inside the Five Elements Ship Cave, Zi Yang, who seemed to be in self-isolation, was actually keeping an eye on Shen Lian.

In his opinion, the fact that Shen Lian threw him thirty miles away and now kept him in the cave showed that his sincerity had paid off.

This trick of exchanging sincerity for sincerity is a good one.

Watching Shen Lian lying down, then crouching, then standing up and pacing back and forth.

Sometimes he would rush out of the cave, stare at a tree in the forest for a long time, and even pat the tree and nod.

This abnormal state lasted for almost two years. His hair was disheveled and he was muttering to himself, but if you listened carefully, you could only hear humming and hawing sounds.

Inside the cave, Shen Lian laughed foolishly.

After two years, his golden elixir was already covered with dense runes.

These runes vary in size and shape; some are as big as plants, rocks, and some are as small as flies, insects, and rice grains.

They piled up densely together, surrounding the five-colored golden elixir.

Each combination of runes can also produce different artistic conceptions.

After laughing foolishly for a while, Shen Lian came to his senses, found a pond in the mountains, jumped in to wash himself, and caught two fish to grill.

"Senior, come and eat fish."

Seeing Shen Lian, who had been crazy for two years and suddenly became a normal person, calling him, Zi Yang suddenly emitted a ray of light from the cave and revealed a skinny old man.

"I no longer have any appetite."

Shen Lian didn't care about him. After eating the two fish, he began to rest.

The past two years have been very exhausting for him and he needs to recover.

Two months later.

Shen Lian, who had completely gotten rid of his tiredness, focused his mind on the golden elixir.

A colorful cloud of light appeared on the five-colored golden elixir that was slowly rotating in the Dantian sea, and the countless runes on it seemed to be alive, interweaving and moving.

Shen Lian took in every rune and mobilized his magic power towards the golden elixir.

In addition, he also mobilized the five-colored spiritual mist lingering around the location of his spiritual roots.

This thing had enhanced his magical attacks before, and now that his magical powers were about to be completed, he needed the five-colored spiritual mist to lend a helping hand.

The baptism of mana is also a long process, and each rune needs to be soaked in Shen Lian's own aura, so that the magic power can be released instantly in a moment.

…

Time flies.

“Buzz!”

Shen Lian was sitting cross-legged in the cave, with dazzling five-colored spiritual light shining in his dantian.

"escape!"

With a whoosh, he disappeared into the cave.
