Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

Alchemists were considered treasures in various factions, whose importance spoke for itself; it was crucial that nothing go awry.

The alchemists who, having heard the news, came seeking guidance, generally brought escorts.

Alchemists hardly had any time to study killing spells, nor had much experience in combating others.

Compared to cultivators of the same realm, they were significantly weaker. Coupled with the chaotic external situations, a slight carelessness could lead to fatal risks.

In the inner courtyard of the mansion, there was a pond with an elderly man sitting by it. His hair and beard were all white, his face marked with the channels of age; he wore a white robe, embodying an immortal's aura.

There was no fluctuation of cultivation emanating from the old man, but a single glance was enough to know he was no ordinary person.

Not far from the old man stood a middle-aged man, almost fifty, who approached respectfully with a few elixirs in his hands:

"I followed every step in the pill recipe, yet I still cannot complete the pill. I seek the master's wisdom to resolve my confusion."

Chu Zheng gently stroked his beard and casually accepted the few waste elixirs the middle-aged man handed him. Instantly, a prompt appeared in his mind.

[Soul Solidifying Pill (Third Order/Incomplete): A spirit pill to stabilize the divine soul and speed up the gathering of the soul. An error in the amount of Soul Gathering Grass slightly reduced its potency, making it nearly a waste product. Repairable (0/8)]

After examining the waste elixirs for a moment, Chu Zheng said gravely:

"There's an issue with the amount of Soul Gathering Grass, hence the pill formation failed. Go back and reconsider the dosage."

Chu Zheng did not clarify further, instead leaving room for thought.

After all, he was merely quoting what the prompt provided, barely understanding the properties and contraindications of the spiritual medicines, let alone alchemy.

In these days, after interacting with these alchemists, Chu Zheng noticed something fascinating.

Sometimes, he only needed to make a vague comment, and these alchemists would act as though they had received significant insight, leaving profusely thankful before departing.

Although he was unclear about their realizations, with generous gifts and high-grade elixirs offered, he naturally welcomed all.

Alchemists had substantial resources, often generous in their dealings, which even surprised the already affluent Chu Zheng.

"Soul Gathering Grass..."

Hearing what Chu Zheng said, the middle-aged man fell into deep thought. After a while, his eyes brightened, and he bowed deeply:

"Thank you, senior, for your guidance!"

Before the words had settled, he produced a storage bag, bowing as he placed it beside Chu Zheng.

Chu Zheng didn't look at the storage bag but casually pocketed the waste elixirs and nodded:

"Keep these waste elixirs with me. Once you've refined new ones, bring them for me to see. You show good comprehension; your future is boundless."

"Thank you, senior!"

Upon hearing this, joy overflowed in the middle-aged man's eyes as he bowed again.

Such guidance from a high expert was not something ordinary individuals could receive.

Sometimes a few words could save them years or even decades of hard work, and greatly enhance their prowess in alchemy.

"Junior takes his leave."

Watching the middle-aged man depart, Chu Zheng flicked his sleeves and discreetly picked up the storage bag, glancing inside.

It contained a few Third Order spiritual medicines and five thousand middle-quality spirit stones—a generous offer indeed.

Besides these items, there was also a long box in the storage bag, made of Sky Fire Wood.

Upon seeing this long box, Chu Zheng let out a soft exclamation, flipped his hand to open it.

A deep purple Fire Seed gently pulsed within.

[Blazing Purple Spiritual Flame (Third Order): A relatively rare type of Fire Seed, mostly preserved from ancient times, born from inside Purple Spirit Jade, has suffered considerable loss. Repairable (0/20)]

Nowadays, the cost of seeing Chu Zheng was not low, requiring at least a Third Order spiritual object as a gift for the meeting. Stay in the adventure with m-vl-em,py-r

During these days, many had brought spiritual objects, magic treasures, spiritual medicines, and spirit stones. This was the first time someone had brought a Fire Seed.

Apparently, the person couldn't produce a spiritual object at the moment and had to make do with this Fire Seed.

After examining it for a moment, Chu Zheng temporarily stored the Fire Seed and pulled up the panel.

Under the relentless nourishment of the Five Elements Shaping Pill, Chu Zheng's Qi Refinement's Cultivation was in a period of rapid progress.

In just a few months, his Qi Refinement's Cultivation had advanced another step, entering the mid-stage of the Jade Bone Realm.

As his cultivation increased, mana and Yuan Qi gradually became somewhat crowded in his Dantian.

After all, his cultivation was limited, and his Dantian had not been fully developed, besides practicing two paths concurrently; such a situation was only to be expected.

Chu Zheng had anticipated this, and in recent days, he had already been attempting to open his Middle Dantian.

In the Qi Refining arts, there are three Dantians: upper, middle, and lower; the middle Dantian, beneath the heart at the Golden Palace, is the Middle Dantian.

The Middle Dantian, a treasury of Qi, was originally to be opened during the Dao Embryo stage, serving as a reserve for storing Yuan Qi in preparation for condensing the Golden Core.

Now, Chu Zheng needed to open it ahead of schedule to alleviate the pressure on the Lower Dantian.

As for the external chaos, he had heard of it but simply could not be bothered with it.

At the very least, he would wait until he had condensed his Dao Embryo and forged his Celestial Foundation before he would compete in life and death with those in the Soul Condensing Realm.

Before his strength sufficed, he needed to calmly cultivate for a period.

The cultivators recently recruited by Taixuan Holy Land, no matter how much effort they expended in finding him, Chu Zheng would not risk making contact with these people.

In these days, the changes in the Hidden Dragon List did not go unnoticed by him, watching the geniuses of the Great Holy Lands fall, he was not in a hurry.

Unseen fortuitous destiny did not dissipate but converged onto the remaining geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List.

Recently, he had noticed a significant increase in his own invisible fortuitous destiny, and the speed of his Qi Refining had accelerated, amounting to reaping the benefits of others' efforts.

Regarding his own Celestial Foundation, Chu Zheng also had some ideas; constructing a Celestial Foundation, there is no rule that states there can be only one.

He wanted to try to construct five Celestial Foundations according to the cycle of creation and restraint of the Five Elements, connecting them into a self-sustaining cycle.

In doing so, his foundation would naturally surpass that of ordinary cultivators significantly.

Even if he had fewer layers, he could still prevail through quantity.

This was just an attempt; if it ended fruitlessly, he could always rebuild his Celestial Foundation from scratch, merely wasting some time.

Currently, his reliance was Qi Refining; the Immortal Path was just an alternative for when Qi Refining reached an impasse.

The only trouble was the massively increased number of Spiritual Objects required, which were hard to gather all at once.

Originally, Chu Zheng had come to Immortal Emerald Continent following the aura of a fragment of the Xuan Tian Martial Barrier.

After finding that fragment, troubled by the cumbersome search for Spiritual Objects, he pondered and then ended up in the current situation.

Initially, he only intended to deceive some Spiritual Objects and leave, but these pill masters were overly generous.

The rare and various Spiritual Objects of the world came into his hands without him even searching for them.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before Chu Zheng could gather the Five Elements Spiritual Objects and begin his attempt to build the foundation.

The temptation was indeed too great, and it was worth taking some risks for Chu Zheng now.

Knock, knock—

As Chu Zheng was lost in thought, the courtyard door was knocked on once again.

"Enter."

Chu Zheng took a deep breath and sat up straight.

The person with the highest level of cultivation he had ever met was Geng Yiyang.

These days, he had been mimicking the demeanor of that old fellow during their first meeting, remaining calm and composed amidst turmoil, as stable as an angler calmly fishing amidst a storm.

It proved to be somewhat effective.

A figure slowly walked into the courtyard, appearing to be a woman in her late twenties.

As she approached Chu Zheng, her features gradually changed.

In a blink of an eye, she transformed into a young woman around seventeen or eighteen, with a beautiful face and a radiant gaze.

"Tai Xu Holy Land True Transmission, Miao Luan, greets the senior."
