Chapter 792: The Incomplete Scroll
t:Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!"Lu, senior!""Mmm." Lu Xia Tian nodded, ignoring the thoughts of these Qingdan Palace Jindan cultivators beneath his feet. He direct...Back when he was still in the Qi-Building stage, at the bottom of Silent Star Lake, the terracotta head sculpture used to control puppets was this very technique. Lu Xia Tian even now thinks back on it and finds it rather wondrous. However, after understanding the key to it, that sense of mystery has diminished quite a bit.
Lu Xia Tian read the Puppet Scroll from beginning to end, and finally a regretful expression appeared on his face. It turned out that this scroll was not complete, it was only a part of the Puppet Scroll.
It records the refining of the puppet glyph array and the method of combining with puppets, but the kind of spirit clay required for these terracotta puppets is unknown. Among the spiritual beings Lu Xia Tian has encountered, there is no similar existence to this spirit clay.
There is another method, which is to erase the original spiritual awareness of existing clay figurines and then refine them anew. However, this is also unfeasible. The two golden elixir-level clay figurine puppets encountered on Blood Gourd Island back then were also quite strange. At this time, it's unknown whether they are still there if one were to seek them out again.
If there's nothing else, I might as well take a trip. Lu XiaTian stroked his chin. Now, after a hundred years or so, he wondered how Xuehu Island was doing. Was the teleportation array still there
“Let’s put it aside for now.” Soon, Lu Xia Tian shook his head. He looked towards the old friends of the cultivation world, and occasionally remembered them during his cultivation. He also wondered if that battle in the cultivation world had ended.
At this time, the cultivation environment in the Azure Demon Sea is unparalleled. There are abundant spiritual creatures here. If Land Xia Tian left now, he couldn't guarantee that he could refine a Nascent Soul Pill with just the current amount of spiritual materials. Moreover, Land Xia Tian felt that he needed quite a few Nascent Soul Pills. Even if he managed to refine one or two, it would probably not be enough for his own use.
According to Lu Xiaoteng's estimation, he should have taken more than one Yuying Pill when he formed his Nascent Soul. Therefore, before forming his Nascent Soul, he still had to break through again, raising his physical body to the ninth level. Otherwise, when forming his Nascent Soul, the massive spiritual power generated by the nine-colored golden pill and the Yuying Pill merging together would be enough to burst his body.
Only a body of extreme strength could possibly endure such torment.

However, over the years Lu Xia Tian had cultivated, his body and cultivation had become increasingly intertwined. The most direct way to improve one's physical strength was through direct combat, against demonic beasts or cultivators. The body endured attacks and erupted in battle, progressing step by step. Relying solely on seclusion would be difficult to reach a sufficiently high level.
The Zhanxian Tower in Danwang City did provide Lu Xiaoteng with an excellent place to cultivate. Before coming here, he had learned from Xiao Yun that the monsters within the Zhanxian Tower were endless and not all came at once. Instead, they depended on the cultivator's own strength level and the number of floors entered into the Zhanxian Tower.
Ordinary adventurer Lu Xia Tian, when adventuring elsewhere, either encountered enemies that were too powerful or too numerous. Lu Xia Tian didn't dare to get caught in the enemy ranks and engage in a grueling battle, so he could only end the fight early and use other fierce methods. Or, the monsters he encountered were simply too weak and few in number, naturally incapable of tempering his physical body.
> While searching for monsters abroad or in other dangerous situations would take a considerable amount of time, Lu Xiaotian couldn't afford to waste it. Only continuous high-intensity combat could yield significant results in the shortest possible time.
After all, since it's about tempering the flesh, naturally, we need to gather a large number of golden elixir-grade monster spirits.

Lu Xia Tian took out his alchemy furnace and began to refine pills. As for the Nascent Soul Pill, he needed to gather a large amount of spiritual creatures before refining it together. Having been refining pills for so long, Lu Xia Tian had gained some experience. For the same type of pill, if it was continuously refined, the success rate would be higher. Once mixed with other types of pills during refining, the success rate would naturally decrease.
This time, Lu Xia Tian was refining Blood Ginseng Pills. Using the blood ginseng from a demon as bait, and adding more than ten other kinds of spirit creatures into the refinement process, he could obtain Blood Ginseng Pills that attract demonic beasts. Lu Xia Tian needed to collect enough demonic beast essences, and this was naturally the best way to do it.
In the cave dwelling, he refined the Town Demon Tower, nurtured sword embryos, cultivated the suit of armor known as Ruishi War Armor, and studied the way of array formations. He also practiced alchemy to cultivate his own strength. Occasionally, he needed to input a considerable amount of mana into the Haoyin Gourd to lure and kill demonic beasts; the Haoyin Gourd was crucial and could not have any lapses. Additionally, Dan Wang City had sent over a batch of spiritual creatures. As Lu Xiaoteng resided in Dan Wang City, he enjoyed privileges and also needed to refine a certain amount of pills as an exchange.
Lu Xiaotian, despite having five primordial spirits, still felt overwhelmed.
Months later, Xiao Yun sheathed her flying sword and landed in front of the small courtyard on Qingyun Peak. Everything was as usual, she was about to enter the courtyard for a brief rest, when suddenly, the barrier around the cave dwelling that had always been motionless trembled once. The familiar yet strange figure appeared in her sight.
"Senior!" Xiao Yun was taken aback and hurriedly bowed.
"No need for formalities, where is your eldest brother" Lu XiaTian asked.
"Eldest Brother is still in the city market, gathering spiritual objects for senior." Xiao Yun said. Taking out a storage bag, "This is what I've collected this month, please take a look, senior."

Lu Xia Tian reached out and pulled the storage bag closer. With a sweep of his divine sense into it, a satisfied expression appeared on his face. Spirit Gathering Pills, Spirit Herbs, Spirit Flowers, and Spirit Fruits were all things that could be matured inside the protective barrier. Only those rare ores were something his internal barrier couldn't solve. Judging by the amount of spiritual items inside, there was enough to refine ten or so batches of Spirit Condensation Pills.
“Well done, this bottle of pills is yours.” Lu XiaTian flicked his finger, and a pill bottle flew towards Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun caught the pill bottle, Lu Xiaoteng had already vanished into thin air, "I'm going out for a while, at least a few days, at most half a year or so. During this time, everything remains as usual."
Until the other figure disappeared, Xiao Yun finally let out a breath. Perhaps it was because they hadn't interacted much. This black-faced youth had extraordinary cultivation but was extremely indifferent in temperament, and didn't seem easy to approach. Now that the black-faced youth had left, Xiao Yun couldn't help humming a tune, feeling quite pleased. She slowly opened the pill bottle and suddenly exclaimed, her face filled with surprise.
This is a placeholder.
“Two mid-grade Soul Nourishing Pills! ” Xiao Yun was overjoyed, carefully holding the pill bottle in her palm for fear of dropping it. At the Qi Refining Stage, the role of divine consciousness began to manifest. The higher the cultivation level, the more important the divine consciousness became. Soul Nourishing Pills could nourish one's primordial spirit. These mid-grade pills were highly sought after in Dan Wang City, often selling out as soon as they appeared. A stronger primordial spirit meant a greater chance of surviving the Golden Core tribulation.
"This Eastern senior, his heart isn't as cold as he appears." Xiao Yun giggled, "Two mid-grade Soul Nourishing Pills, I'll leave one for Big Brother too."
Lu Xia Tian flew out of Dan Wang City all the way to the vast blue sea, avoiding other cultivators along the way and heading for a sea area where demonic beasts were relatively concentrated. The fewer people who knew about his methods of hunting demonic beasts, the better.he glanced back hurriedly, seeing Lu Xiaoteng seemingly split in two, with energies clashing on either side like fire and water. Xiang Qingcheng understood Lu Xiaoteng's cultivation method well. She h...
