Chapter 326: Opportunity
There was still a trace of consciousness remaining in the Blood Demon's relic, which surprised Gao Xian.
According to the "Blood Nerve", the Blood Demon's Relics are formed by the natural condensation of the soul and blood of a powerful demon after his death.
The powerful strength of the cultivator during his lifetime collapsed inward and condensed into solid and stable crystals under the powerful laws of heaven and earth.
In this state, the cultivator's own soul consciousness will inevitably collapse and disintegrate. Only when the soul consciousness is broken can this kind of crystal be condensed.
The same principle applies to the relics left behind by Buddhist monks, as well as the crystals left behind by some evil spirits after death.
Living beings with immortal consciousness cannot condense relics.
Only when one dies completely can relics and crystals condense under the influence of the laws of heaven and earth.
Just like the crystal cores left by evil spirits, they are all extremely valuable. No one would ever think that evil spirit crystal cores are dangerous.
Gao Xian was very familiar with the Blood Demon's Relics, but he didn't expect that this thing actually contained a divine consciousness.
But he immediately realized that this spiritual consciousness came from a later source and had nothing to do with the Blood Demon's relics.
Gao Xian thought of the demon cultivator he had killed. Judging from his life state, he must be at least five or six hundred years old.
Such a demon cultivator in the late Jindan stage most likely wanted to use the Blood Demon's relics to refine into an avatar, but failed.
It makes sense since there is a wisp of consciousness left in the Blood Demon's relics.
Moreover, the Blood Demon Relics are closely connected to the Blood God Son, and only that demon cultivator can control the Blood God Son.
Gao Xian quickly calmed down after being surprised. The other party's consciousness only invaded Taixuan Shenxiang's clone and could not cause direct harm to him.
Secondly, although the other party's spiritual awareness is strong, it is also ferocious and violent, and it is obvious that he does not have much wisdom.
"The remaining soul of the demon was originally not a threat, but it triggered the power of the blood demon's relic, so it appeared to be unusually powerful and brutal..."
With the clone as a buffer, Gao Xian had time to calmly think about the causes and consequences, and soon came to a reliable conclusion.
There's nothing to be afraid of, as long as we can destroy that remaining soul.
Gao Xian visualized a large vajra and blasted towards the powerful and cold spiritual consciousness.
Even if the demon was still alive, Gao Xian's consciousness was no less powerful than his. Not to mention that the other party only had a remnant soul left.
A huge vajra as big as the Tower of Babel fell down, and a blood light as sharp as a knife shattered.
The violent impact also left a huge and deep crack on the Babel Golden Pagoda, and it almost shattered on the spot.
Without the guidance and control of this divine consciousness, the Blood Demon's relics turned back into walnut-sized blood-colored crystals.
In this head-on attack, Gao Xian's visualized vajra was almost broken, causing him to suffer severe damage at the spiritual level.
At this point it can be seen that the Vajra's so-called irreversibility is not worthy of its name.
This is actually true. The Vajra is the only thing that can prevent one from regressing or changing in the Golden Elixir Realm.
Let alone the Golden Elixir, even the Nascent Soul, the Incarnation of the God, and even the Taoist Master Chunyang dare not say that they will never regress.
Gao Xian had a splitting headache at the moment, but he didn't dare to rest. He cast the Qingmu Rejuvenation Technique on himself and barely suppressed the severe pain.
Having just shattered a wisp of the devil's remaining soul, it is the best time to refine the Blood Demon's relics.
He controlled the Taixuan Divine Avatar to circulate the blood nerves and tried his best to absorb the aura of the Blood Demon's relics.
It took more than ten days for Taixuan Shenxiang's clone to barely leave a trace of spiritual mark on the Blood Demon's relic, becoming the temporary owner of the Blood Demon's relic.
Hua Qianhe used the Blood Demon Relic as the core to refine the Blood God Banner. Gao Xian can now barely control the Blood God Banner through the Blood Demon Relic.
However, this third-tier spiritual weapon is extremely powerful, and it is extremely difficult to control it at the level of Taixuan Divine Avatar.
After Gao Xian barely managed to refine the Blood Demon's relic, he collected his clone and returned to the camp.
Gao Xian was relieved that Yun Qiushui was not there. If Yun Qiushui saw him in such a miserable state, she would definitely ask him questions.
You can't tell the truth, and telling lies will make you feel sorry for your friends.
Returning to his room, Gao Xian swallowed two Six-turn Golden Turtle Pills.
The Golden Turtle Pill is specifically used to nourish the mind and calm the soul. If the mind and soul are damaged, using the Golden Turtle Pill will have a very good effect.
Pills for treating injuries to the soul are extremely rare. The price of two Six-turn Golden Turtle Pills is ten thousand low-grade spirit stones each, which is extremely exaggerated.
Gao Xian is very powerful at the spiritual level, and with Sister Lan and the Vajra, it is generally impossible for him to be harmed.
But out of caution, he still prepared three golden tortoise pills as a backup.
Sure enough, it was really used.
The Golden Turtle Pill was expensive, and the effect was immediate. The gentle spiritual energy continued to diffuse into the sea of consciousness, nourishing the soul deep in the sea of consciousness.
Gao Xian recuperated for seven days before he recovered.
However, after this injury, Gao Xian found that his proficiency in using the Vajra had greatly improved.
Obviously, this kind of injury is a good training for the Vajra.
After all, it was learned quickly. Gao Xian had not gone through the process of tempering, so his vajra was less solid and indestructible.
It’s not that there’s something wrong with the Vajra, but that his personal spiritual realm is a level lower.
Gao Xian also realized this problem. His swordsmanship was extremely high now, and other aspects were just added on, so he lacked some understanding when using them.
The form and spirit of the Vajra are perfect, and it is consistent inside and out. It is a very good integration for the various secret methods he practiced.
From this perspective, the Great Vajra is actually far more powerful than the Great Five Elements Kung Fu.
The Daluo Transformation and Splitting Method was another way. It was higher in level than the Great Vajra, but it was a bit too high for his current situation.
To condense the golden elixir, a strong life origin is the foundation, a strong soul can increase its upper limit, and a strong consciousness can improve the efficiency of forming the elixir.
To put it bluntly, the changes in the Dharma images of the Vajra Pestle are the condensation of spiritual consciousness, which originates from the soul.
Therefore, these three are closely related to each other.
The tenth level of foundation building is to temper the consciousness and sharpen the spiritual orifice, making the final preparation for forming the elixir.
Gao Xian discovered this practice method, which could not only help him refine the Blood Demon's relics, but also sharpen his spiritual consciousness and soul, and cultivate his clone, truly killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, you have to be careful about how you handle the heat. Don't let your soul get hurt. Golden Turtle Pills are very expensive, and getting hurt all the time will also cause a loss of your essence.
In the next few days, Gao Xian went to the Poison Fire Cave every day to refine the Blood Demon's relics.
His method of refining was also very simple and crude, which was to use the Vajra to bombard the Blood Demon's relics.
The Blood Demon Relics were somewhere between reality and illusion, and were extremely solid and stable. The Vajra Pestle could not shake the Blood Demon Relics, but would instead be damaged.
Under Gao Xian's control, these minor injuries can be recovered quickly.
It didn't take long for Gao Xian to find a rhythm for his practice, practicing for one day and resting for three days. In this way, he could constantly sharpen his soul and consciousness through the Vajra without hurting his foundation.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
As for Yun Qiu Shui, he found a golden essence cave, which was filled with golden essence formed by billions of Geng gold energy. It had shape but no substance, and had spirit but no intelligence.
They are like phantoms of golden light, condensing the extremely sharp energy of Gengjin, and have some instinctive intelligence like plants, which will automatically attack outsiders.
Yun Qiu Shui really likes to hone his sword skills in there. Although he is a strong swordsman, he comes from a noble family and has had a smooth journey. Therefore, when he draws his sword, there is less murderous intent and sharpness.
The energy of Gengjin is sharp and murderous. Practicing sword here for a long time will be of great benefit to Yun Qiu Shui.
Gao Xian has been to the Jinjing Cave several times. It is not impossible for him to practice sword here, but the edge will be sharpened too much, which is not good for him.
Yun Qiu Shui felt it was a pity, as he thought Gao Xian was obviously more talented in swordsmanship and could definitely follow the path of a sword cultivator.
But Gao Xian didn't want to, so he couldn't force him.
The two of them practiced their own skills and stayed in the Lihuo Underground Palace for more than a year.
On this day, Gao Xian suddenly felt something in his heart. He took back Taixuan Shenxiang's clone and returned to the camp.
After Gao Xian entered the tent, he sat cross-legged. He closed his eyes and concentrated. Sister Lan also appeared in the depths of his eyebrows, and at the same time, he practiced the Five Elements Qigong.
The Great Five Elements Kung Fu and the Five Elements Qigong are combined together, and Yin and Yang converge and rotate, constantly polishing the innate spiritual light between the eyebrows.
The spiritual light, which was originally as small as a bean, suddenly expanded by an inch.
The spiritual light from the essence orifice in the heart and the spiritual light from the qi orifice in the lower abdomen all shone and evaporated at the same time. The three spiritual lights combined from top to bottom to form a powerful spiritual light, penetrating Gao Xian's body inside and out, illuminating the dark sea of consciousness and Gao Xian's soul.
The magic power that is constantly gathered and circulated through the three spiritual lights is pure and powerful.
Gao Xian knew that he had advanced to the tenth level of foundation building. He even vaguely felt a hint of inspiration between heaven and earth.
If he takes advantage of the situation, he can definitely form a golden elixir.
Gao Xian hesitated for a moment but finally gave up, thinking it was too hasty to form the elixir now.
After reaching the tenth level of foundation building, he still needs to hone his magic power and spiritual awareness to make it as perfect as possible.
This requires time to develop and cannot be achieved overnight.
When it comes to the final step, you can't be in a hurry.
Gao Xian has been in Qingyun Sect for more than ten years and has learned a lot.
Especially the various details of Danjie, Yun Qiu Shui mentioned it repeatedly, Yun Qingxuan also mentioned it, and even Yun Changfeng also mentioned it.
The three Jindan Zhenren each had different points, but they all emphasized that one should not be impatient when forming the elixir.
When entering the tenth level of foundation building, it is indeed very easy to communicate with the heaven and earth and sense the inspiration for forming the elixir.
However, this inspiration comes and goes quickly and is very unstable.
Those independent cultivators who have no connections can take this opportunity to give it a try.
There is no need for monks from large sects to seek such shortcuts.
Gao Xian opened his eyes. Now that his cultivation had reached this point, it was time for him to return to the sect.
The spiritual energy in the Lihuo Underground Palace is complex and changeable, and there are various dangers, so it is not suitable for nurturing magical powers and spiritual consciousness.
When Yun Qiu Shui came back, Gao Xian told him about this.
Yun Qiu Shui was a little surprised. Gao Xian had only reached the ninth level of foundation building a year ago, but in just over a year he had reached the tenth level!
This is a very fast pace of progress.
"I have reached the tenth level of foundation building and need to nurture my magical power and consciousness. It is indeed not appropriate for me to stay here."
Yun Qiushui thought for a moment and said, "My sword is almost sharpened. If I sharpen it any further, it will damage the foundation. I will go back to the sect with you..."
After returning to the sect, Gao Xian and Yun Qiu Shui went to see Yun Changfeng together.
Yun Changfeng praised Gao Xian for a long time. When the news of Gao Xian killing the Jindan demon cultivator spread back, it caused a sensation in the sect.
Yun Changfeng is still very excited when he talks about this matter again two years later.
He said to Gao Xian: "The matter of forming a pill is of great importance, so you should just focus on recuperating in the sect and don't worry about anything else..."
After coming out from Yun Changfeng, Yun Qiushui said to Gao Xian very seriously: "Brother Gao, it's not too late for you to switch to sword cultivation now. If you are willing, I will go to the master and ask him to give you the "Taiwei Feixian Sword Sutra" for you to comprehend..."
