After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yun woke up from his practice.
"How long?"
Jiang Yun felt like he had been reborn, fresh out of his mother's womb. His mind was blank, filled with an endless sense of peace and comfort. After a long moment, Jiang Yun finally remembered that he was at his residence in Canghai City and had just taken a Spirit Pill.
"What a powerful pill."
Jiang Yun suddenly felt a lingering fear. The entire pill had just exploded in his mind, and Jiang Yun instantly lost control of his body. He felt like he was traveling in a sea of stars, flying freely.
His soul was like a dark universe, with stars suddenly lighting up inside. Jiang Yun didn't know what this was, but his intuition told him that if he could light up all the stars in his mind, he would be able to ascend to heaven in a hundred days.
At this moment, Jiang Yun felt the strength of his soul and found that it had increased significantly. Originally, his soul was at the late stage of foundation building, but now, it was not far from the soul realm of perfect foundation building.
As everyone knows, the soul realm is the most difficult to advance. Many cultivators fail to advance because they are blocked at this level. Yet, Jiang Yun's pill has such a miraculous effect.
"I need to condense my soul."
This time, refining the Shenpo Pill was undoubtedly a great success, but due to the inadequate sealing technique, some impurities still remained inside the pill. Jiang Yun felt a slight tingling in his mind. He knew he couldn't take the Shenpo Pill right away. He had to wait until he could condense his spirit again.
Jiang Yun then began to use the innate purple fire to calcine his soul according to the records in Zixiao Xuanlu.
"Ah!" Jiang Yun finally understood what it felt like to burn other cultivators with his innate purple fire. This was even after he used a special technique, using a flame as thin as a hair. Not to mention using all the purple fire to burn the soul directly. That would probably burn the entire soul to ash.
Jiang Yun endured the excruciating pain and began to regulate and reduce the purple fire. Slowly, the slight tingling in his head subsided. It would depend on the situation. As long as he continued to temper his spirit like this every day, after a month, his entire spirit would be completely renewed from the inside out. Then he could take the Shenpo Pill again.
Time passed quickly. Jiang Yun not only used his inner fire to eliminate impurities from his soul, but also practiced non-stop. However, he had been busy during this period, and his progress had been delayed.
Time passed day by day. Until one day, when Jiang Yun had just finished his training and was resting, the sound transmission talisman on his body suddenly rang.
"The demon beast's soul has arrived!"
Jiang Yun didn't waste any time and soon arrived at the store he had entered for the first time. This grocery store was in an ordinary location, not very big, and had an even more casual name: Xianyuan Grocery.
When Jiang Yun arrived at the shop, the owner had been waiting for a while. When he saw Jiang Yun, he greeted him warmly.
"Fellow Daoist, the beast souls have just been received. They are 10 second-level demon beasts. Each one was freshly hunted."
After the other party finished speaking, he pointed to the green jade boxes on the counter next to him. Jiang Yun said nothing and casually opened one of them. Suddenly, a breath of spiritual power rushed towards him.
In the jade box, a small green fish was lying with its eyes closed, and the aura on its body was exactly that of a second-level primary monster.
Jiang Yun gently closed the jade box and began to open it one by one to examine it. The old shopkeeper remained silent, watching quietly with a smile on his face. This cultivator had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage at such a young age. Moreover, he was a cultivator from the Qingyun Sect. How dare he deceive them?
When he received the goods, he also carefully checked them before notifying the other party.
"Yeah, not bad."
After checking all the jade boxes, Jiang Yun turned around and said to the shopkeeper, "The monsters in the East China Sea are still mostly fish. But when Jiang Yun uses souls, he doesn't care about the monster's species, as long as it reaches the second level."
Jiang Yun quickly pulled out seventy mid-grade spirit stones from his storage bag. The shopkeeper excitedly accepted them. He hadn't expected the other party to pay with mid-grade spirit stones. As expected of a sect disciple, he was arrogant.
"Well, there will be more monster souls in the future. Keep notifying me. I still need them."
Jiang Yun put away the jade box on the counter and said calmly. The storyteller was overjoyed when he heard it.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll have all the demon hunters I work with give away their souls. I won't charge you a deposit!"
Although the other party said that, Jiang Yun still took out a deposit of one thousand spirit stones and handed it to the other party.
After leaving Xianyuan Shop, he began to buy auxiliary elixirs from various pharmacies.
"There are still too few elixirs."
Jiang Yun visited every shop in Canghai City that sold spiritual medicines, but he couldn't even gather the ingredients for a single Shenpo Pill. He desperately wanted an island of his own, where he could grow spiritual medicine and cultivate properly.
Jiang Yun had just returned to his residence when he found Zhang Miaomiao waiting for him in the living room.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Yun asked with concern. He could see that the other person looked unhappy.
“It’s so boring!”
"What?"
Jiang Yun thought he had misheard. Immortal cultivators were always racing against time, so why was he starting to feel bored here?
"I've tried all the delicious food in the city. I've been to all the places I need to go."
Zhang Miaomiao said in a bored tone.
"Don't you practice?"
Jiang Yun couldn't help but ask. They had been in Canghai City for over a month. If they just ate and drank every day, they could definitely explore the entire place. But hadn't she practiced for a single day during this time?
"Well, I just got here, so of course I have to feel it first."
Zhang Miaomiao hadn't practiced properly for a single day. Originally, she'd been kept under strict supervision by Master Haoyi in Ziyang City, who had supervised her daily practice. Now, alone here, with no one to supervise her, she felt like a wild horse unleashed. She was completely free.
"Practice well. I'm going to find a place to practice well. What are you going to do in the future?"
Jiang Yun finally asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time. He had already sent the other person to the East China Sea, and it was not a good idea for the two of them to always be together.
"Of course I followed you?"
Hearing Zhang Miaomiao's words, Jiang Yun suddenly felt a headache. Last time, when their feelings were strong, he made a promise to Huang Shan. Now, he was a little afraid to go to the island where the Biyun Sect was located. Now, with Zhang Miaomiao as a newcomer, he really didn't want to provoke any more female cultivators.
"I'm afraid I'll be in seclusion every day, so I won't be able to accompany you every day. Do you want to go to Xuanyang Island of the Ziyang Sect?"
As soon as Jiang Yun said this, Zhang Miaomiao's expression suddenly became extremely depressed.
"If you don't want to go to Xuanyang Island, why not go to Bibo Island of Biyun Sect? My sister is there too. How about I introduce you to some new friends then?"
Seeing the other person's expression, Jiang Yun quickly changed the subject and mentioned going to Bibo Island of Biyun Sect. Zhang Miaomiao's sadness turned into joy after hearing this.
"Okay, let's go to Bi Bo Island!"
