Chapter 174: Heaven and Earth Profound Qi, Sixth Layer
"You are not yet strong enough to wield the Heavenly Emperor's Blade. However, with the power of the Mystic Beast Manual, you can suppress it."
The mysterious woman had battled the Heavenly Emperor's Blade for two hundred years and knew its fearsome power all too well. As if recalling something, she added, "The origins of the Mystic Beast Manual and the Bone Bead in your possession are extraordinary. Do not reveal them lightly, or you will invite fatal trouble."
Ning Xiaochuan took out the Mystic Beast Manual and the Bone Bead.
Both treasures were made of bone—one was the Bone Leaf, shaped like a fan blade, inscribed with the three characters "Mystic Beast Manual." The other was a spherical bead, polished from bone and appearing utterly unremarkable. It bore no inscriptions or patterns.
The bone material of both artifacts was identical, belonging to either different parts of a human body or different parts of a beast.
The Mystic Beast Manual could subdue mystic beasts and contained a mysterious power that could strengthen them, making it a treasure even Martial Venerables would covet.
The Bone Bead shared the same origin as the Mystic Beast Manual, so it should not be ordinary. It undoubtedly possessed extraordinary power, though Ning Xiaochuan had yet to discover it.
"That Bone Bead can assist you in cultivating 'Heaven and Earth Profound Qi.' Once your strength grows, you will naturally learn of their origins," the mysterious woman said. "Half a year has passed, and your physique and Profound Qi have met the requirements. Now, you may begin refining the True Cauldron."
"Start now?" Ning Xiaochuan grew excited.
If he succeeded in refining the True Cauldron, it would mean he had become a Quasi-Advanced Heart Nurturer. Even if he couldn’t yet refine advanced pills, his success rate in crafting Intermediate Elixirs would improve, and he could produce more of them in a single batch.
A Quasi-Advanced Heart Nurturer was more formidable than ten Intermediate Heart Nurturers combined!
"Wait a little longer," the mysterious woman said, gazing at the sky.
"Until when?"
"At dawn, when the sun rises and the moon lingers—during the transition of Yin and Yang."
At dawn, the Yin energy in the world would begin to recede, while Yang energy flourished. The moment of transition between Yin and Yang was the perfect time to refine the Yin-Yang Furnace into the True Cauldron.
With four hours remaining until dawn, Ning Xiaochuan decided to use this time to cultivate, testing whether the mysterious woman’s words held truth.
Could the Bone Bead truly aid him in cultivating "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi"?
Clutching the Bone Bead in his palm, Ning Xiaochuan sat cross-legged by the Mystic Spring and began cultivating according to the methods of "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi."
Profound Qi permeated every corner of the world.
Those who cultivated "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi" could sense its presence, drawing it into their bodies and transforming it into their own Martial Arts Profound Qi.
After three months of cultivation at the bottom of the Mystic Spring, Ning Xiaochuan had deepened his mastery of "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi." Even without actively circulating his Blood Qi, his skin naturally absorbed the ambient Profound Qi, albeit at a slow pace.
This level of attainment was already remarkable for a practitioner of "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi," nearly reaching the sixth layer.
Previously, when Ning Xiaochuan circulated "Heaven and Earth Profound Qi," his absorption rate was sixteenfold. But with the Bone Bead in hand, he felt his absorption speed increase to twentyfold.
"Whoosh—"
As Ning Xiaochuan circulated the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi, the Bone Bead unexpectedly reacted, emitting a ring of white radiance that flickered in a certain pattern. Ning Xiaochuan deliberately observed the changes in the Bone Bead and discovered that each time his blood completed a full cycle within his body, the Bone Bead would flicker once. With each flicker, a wisp of white light would drill into his palm and merge into his body.
The white light bore a resemblance to the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi, yet it was entirely different. Its purpose was not to increase the quantity of Profound Qi within Ning Xiaochuan’s body but to alter his physique, making him more attuned to the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi technique and more receptive to the Profound Qi in the surrounding space.
Boom!
A faint sound erupted within Ning Xiaochuan’s body, like a burst of air, causing a slight tremor. Simultaneously, his absorption rate of Profound Qi doubled. A small vortex formed around his body, twisting the Profound Qi within a one-meter radius, accelerating its absorption. This phenomenon was known as the "small Profound Qi vortex"—a hallmark of reaching the sixth layer of the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi, where the absorption speed reached thirty-two times the normal rate.
A thirty-two-fold absorption speed was already comparable to the third layer of the Heart Furnace Divine Canon. Within the Jian Pavilion Marquis House, those capable of cultivating to the third layer were mostly elders—few and far between. This was a cultivation speed that even the descendants of kings and marquises could only dream of.
"The sixth layer of the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi."
Ning Xiaochuan was naturally quite pleased. This meant that even without relying on the Demonic Sword, he could now achieve rapid cultivation progress on his own. Ning Xiaochuan was not one to depend on external aids; true strength came from within, and this was the best outcome for him.
However, Ning Xiaochuan only possessed the cultivation method for the first six layers of the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi. The seventh layer’s technique was stored within the scripture repository of the Emperor's Martial Palace. If he failed to obtain it, he would forever remain stuck at the sixth layer.
Beyond the sixth layer, each subsequent level became exponentially harder to cultivate, with each breakthrough being as difficult as scaling the heavens. Yet, each successful advancement brought immense improvements. Thus, Ning Xiaochuan had no choice but to visit the scripture repository—no matter what, he had to obtain the seventh layer’s cultivation method.
Time always passed swiftly during cultivation, and before he knew it, dawn had arrived. The sky turned deep indigo, with warm morning hues appearing at the horizon. The moon’s glow gradually faded as the first rays of sunlight spilled from the east.
Ning Xiaochuan placed the Yin-Yang Furnace before him, suspending it above his head, while simultaneously summoning the Heart Nurturing Cauldron from within his heart. Wrapped in a misty purple Profound Qi, the cauldron flew toward the Yin-Yang Furnace.
As sunlight fell upon the Yin-Yang Furnace, crimson flames erupted from its top, while an icy blue Freezing Energy seeped from its base.
Hiss!
The opposing forces of Yin and Yang collided, transforming into a Bright Flame.
The mysterious woman hovered above the Yin-Yang Furnace, standing atop a white cloud. She extended her palm, unleashing a beam of white light that struck the furnace. Under the influence of this radiant column, the Yin-Yang Furnace actually began to melt, its surface patterns blurring as it liquefied.
Only the mysterious woman possessed such formidable power, capable of partially melting an eighth-grade Mystic Artifact. This also proved her ability to destroy eighth-grade Mystic Artifacts.
Seizing the moment, Ning Xiaochuan immediately initiated the fusion of the Heart Nurturing Cauldron with the Yin-Yang Furnace.
The Heart Nurturing Cauldron, originally forged from mystic medicines and infused with Ning Xiaochuan’s blood and Heart Flame, carried his unique aura and attributes. It had long since become an inseparable part of his body.
Now, under Ning Xiaochuan’s control, the Heart Nurturing Cauldron dissolved into a cloud of medicinal energy, enveloping the Yin-Yang Furnace and gradually merging with it.
The fusion of the Heart Nurturing Cauldron and the Yin-Yang Furnace had begun.
