During the trip to the Shuangdong Secret Realm, Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou's greatest gain was not the top-grade spirit stone vein, but the 100 million resources they exchanged for the Sun Tree.
Yuan Ran put the refining materials separately in a storage ring.
Gao Han took out the materials that he would not need in the short term and threw them to Zhongli Tingzhou.
Such as silver crystal jade, fantasy fairy stone, crystal cores of monsters and demons, etc.
Some bones and claws of monsters are also good materials for refining weapons, but Gao Han only exchanged a very small number of them. If he didn't use them to refine weapons, it would be a waste to give them to Zhongli Tingzhou.
"Give all of these to me. Your Yayoi Ring does not need to be repaired?" Zhongli Tingzhou played with these things and did not absorb them immediately.
"The cracks in the Yayoi Ring cannot be restored by simply absorbing water. Once my refining skills become more advanced, I will find some materials to repair it." Gao Han replied.
Zhongli Tingzhou raised his eyes and asked, "Among the materials you left behind, some of them are from the Yayoi Ring?"
Gao Han nodded and said, "I was originally worried about how to find materials to repair the space ring. This kind of material is difficult to find, especially for the life space."
"So that's why you proposed to exchange the Sun Tree for resources?" Zhongli Tingzhou smiled.
"We are just following the trend. Keeping the Sun Tree is really not very useful to us."
Knowing that he had his own plans, Zhongli Tingzhou did not mention it again and focused on absorbing the energy of these materials and spiritual herbs.
A thick layer of ash soon accumulated on the floor of the hut.
A large amount of energy entered the Yin-Yang Pearl. Zhongli Tingzhou slowly changed his meditation posture. The Yin-Yang Pearl continuously fed back a large amount of pure energy, which merged into a rushing river of energy, washing his meridians. The golden elixir in his Dantian became fuller and fuller, and the light on the surface became brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire mysterious Dantian.
When the light was so bright that it could no longer be contained, a phantom suddenly appeared behind the golden elixir. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a little human figure.
It appears and disappears, real and unreal.
The Yin-Yang Bead hanging above immediately released a milky white spiritual energy, which slowly condensed.
As more and more spiritual energy fills the Dantian, the virtual image behind the golden elixir becomes more and more solid.
The sky above Wuming Peak was already filled with thunder and lightning, and a loud rumbling sound covered a suddenly formed thundercloud.
A muffled sound was heard from the thunderclouds, and the dark grey clouds seemed to be falling.
Tian Dao walked out of the small house in the back mountain, looking up at the sky in front of him.
As the master of Nameless Peak, no one understood these thunderclouds better than him. He knew exactly how many or how few they were. Naturally, the sudden appearance of a thundercloud was also within his perception.
"This kid is going to break through to the Nascent Soul stage so soon."
Having just seen Zhongli Tingzhou's Heavenly Sword yesterday, he couldn't help but murmur something. At the same time, a ray of light shot out from his right hand, flew out of the Nameless Peak, and directly entered the nearby Upper Nine Peaks.
A few breaths later, Master Zixiao came through the air, and his ethereal figure with fluttering clothes appeared silently beside Tiandao.
"Your disciple is extraordinary. When I saw him yesterday, he was still at the great perfection of the Golden Core. He still had some time before he could break through, but today he suddenly broke through." Tian Dao snorted.
Master Zixiao's flawless face revealed a faint smile, "He is a natural genius."
"Nonsense. I agree that he is a genius, but I don't believe that he has no secrets."
"Everyone has secrets. Since this is his opportunity, why ask so many questions? Will you tell me your secret?" Master Zixiao asked calmly.
Tian Dao did not answer, but only said: "With his training speed, aren't you afraid that he will surpass you soon? It must be a very embarrassing thing to be surpassed by your own disciple."
"If he can really surpass me, I will be even happier. You said that because you are afraid that your disciple will surpass you?" Master Zixiao asked with a smile.
"Would I be worried that he would surpass me?" Tian Dao glanced at him domineeringly, "He wouldn't be able to do it even if he had another hundred years."
Master Zixiao suddenly laughed out loud, "I remember that you once said that no one could do it even if you gave them ten thousand years? The difference between a hundred years and ten thousand years seems a bit big."
"Are you mocking me?" Tian Dao looked at him unkindly.
"How could that be? I'm just stating the facts." Master Zixiao said with a faint smile.
"Zixiao, you've been getting more and more arrogant lately." Tian Dao narrowed his eyes, "It seems like we haven't fought for a long time. I'm afraid my sword has become rusty after not using it for a long time. Why don't you take advantage of the time today and fight with me?"
Master Zixiao's glass-like eyes showed a smile, "If you insist..."
Before he could finish his words, the two standing figures, one white and one mysterious, disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Two beams of light flew out from the sky above the Nameless Peak, instantly left the Zixiao Sect, and arrived at an uninhabited desolate place in the next moment.
At the same time, located on the back mountain of the main peak.
Several elderly men who had come out of seclusion at some point were gathering in a small hut. An old man with white hair and a curly beard but a youthful face suddenly raised his head when the two men left.
"Great Elder, what's wrong?" asked Elder Tian Wu on the lower right.
The old man with curly beard laughed and said, "Those two just left Zixiao Sect again."
Elder Tian Wu also laughed when he heard this. "It seems like they haven't been like this for a long time. Why are they suddenly back to their old ways?"
“Uncle Zixiao has always been calm and self-possessed. I guess it was Senior Tiandao who took the initiative to provoke him. Every time Senior Tiandao is in a bad mood, he will provoke Uncle Zixiao. You'll get used to it.” Elder Chang Liu on the lower left said.
The old man with curly beard shook his head. "Who can guess what they are thinking? Well, let's get on with the business."
Elder Tian Wu cupped his hands and said, "Great Elder, I'm afraid it's difficult for the two of us to come forward in this matter. You have to take action."
Elder Chang Liu also said: "Yes, Great Elder, they have already saved Xiaoxiao and Yijun. If they make that request again, we will both lose face."
"I understand. I will mention it to Zixiao when he comes back." The old man with curly beard agreed.
The Fifth Elder and the Sixth Elder were delighted, and they stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you, Great Elder."
…
The rumbling sound from Nameless Peak was endless, but it was blocked by the surrounding barrier. No one knew that Zhongli Tingzhou, who had just reached the Great Perfection of Golden Elixir not long ago, was about to break through again.
Gao Han didn’t realize he was about to make a breakthrough until he heard a flash of lightning that was different from the lightning on Nameless Peak.
Lightning bolts from high in the sky struck above their hut, like threats from heaven, trying to stop the people who were practicing in the hut.
This situation lasted for a long time. The materials given to him by Gao Han had all been sucked into ashes by him. The huge amount of energy was flowing through his body, slowly polishing the Nascent Soul figure that was about to take shape.
The brighter the Nascent Soul figure, the more solid its shape, the dimmer the light of the golden elixir in the Dantian becomes, until a slight tremor comes from inside, the golden elixir vibrates, and begins to disappear. After disappearing, the golden elixir turns into a stream of energy, and finally rushes into the Nascent Soul figure.
The golden elixir disappeared, and in its place appeared a baby that looked a hundred times smaller. The baby had its eyes closed and its limbs curled up, like a ceramic doll that had not yet fully developed.
The Nascent Soul stage is to raise this little baby to maturity, just like raising your own newborn baby, constantly infusing it with energy and allowing it to grow up slowly. The difference is that this process takes some people only a few years, even a year or a few months, while for others it may take a lifetime.
The thunderclouds that formed on the top of the nameless peak gradually disappeared as the Nascent Soul was formed.
The heavy rain turned into a drizzle.
"Is it done?" Gao Han asked.
Zhongli Tingzhou clenched his fist and felt a surge of vast power bursting out from his body.
"This is the power of the Nascent Soul Stage. It is indeed a hundred times stronger than the Golden Core Stage."
"How about the Yin-Yang Bead?" Gao Han was more concerned about this.
Zhongli Tingzhou looked inward and saw that his Nascent Soul was apparently together with the Yin-Yang Pearl, one in front and one behind. The energy continuously released by the Yin-Yang Pearl was absorbed by the Nascent Soul in front of it.
“The cracks have actually been repaired a lot,” he replied.
Gao Han was relieved. "You absorbed so much energy, it would be strange if it didn't recover. Plus, you just broke through, and the huge energy that exploded was also fed back to the Yin Yang Pearl. With the current toughness of the Yin Yang Pearl, it shouldn't break easily when you use the Destruction Sword Technique again, right?"
"No, there are only three cracks left on the surface of the Yin-Yang Pearl." Zhongli Tingzhou said.
"Three?" Gao Han looked surprised.
"But don't be too happy too soon. These three are the biggest. To heal them, I'm afraid they will require more energy."
Zhongli Tingzhou swallowed half of the 100 million shares of materials by himself, but he was still missing the three most difficult to heal ones. It is conceivable how difficult it is to repair these three.
"Energy is not a problem. We can get it together sooner or later." The rich resources in the Shuangdong Secret Realm gave Gao Han confidence.
In fact, he misunderstood. The reason why they were able to gain such a great harvest in the Shuangdong Secret Realm was because no one had ever entered this secret realm.
If the next secret realm has already been developed, there may not be such a rich harvest.
"I plan to go into seclusion for a while, so you'd better consolidate your cultivation." Gao Han said again.
"It's not easy to practice here." Zhongli Tingzhou said.
"Then go back to your Upper Nine Peaks." Gao Han drove him away rudely.
"How heartless! Just throw it away after use." Zhongli Tingzhou curled his lips.
Gao Han grabbed something nearby and threw it at him. Zhongli Tingzhou stretched out his hand to block it, but got dust all over his face.
“…”
Gao Han looked at his handsome face with a gray complexion and sneered.
Zhongli Tingzhou wiped his face, his hands were covered in dust, and sighed, "Why did you suddenly become so smart?"
"In your heart, have I always been stupid?" Gao Han asked back indifferently.
"How could that be? In my heart, you are a beautiful, intelligent and virtuous wife." Zhongli Tingzhou said and instantly dodged.
A large amount of ashes came towards him from all directions, and a small tornado blew up in the cabin.
Zhongli Tingzhou rushed out of the hut in a panic, his white clothes turned into gray clothes, and he said helplessly to the house: "Okay, I will go back to the Upper Nine Peaks to practice."
Glancing at the thick ashes on the ground, he would remember to put these things away first next time.
"Get out!" Gao Han said without hesitation.
