Chapter 1708: The Quickest Method

藍蘭跑過來時胸膛激盪起來的波浪吸引了很多人的目光。"壞蛋，人家好心和你打招呼，你還這麼壞。" 藍蘭臉微微紅了嘟囔道。沈翔摸著她的頭笑道："昨天的傷完全好了嗎？可惜你冇看見我狠揍魔歡的樣子！"說完他看向臉上溫柔媚笑的燕嫣然。"沈翔，你不會後悔給我吃下那還命丹吧？如果你想收回，我真不知道怎麼還給你。" 燕嫣然笑道。沈翔哈哈一笑："放心吧，我不會讓你以身相許的。" "不信，壞蛋哥哥你心裡肯定就是這麼想的...Chapter 1708: The Quickest Method

"For now, we won't use it. This place isn't suitable for that, I'll copy more strange poisons while I have the chance!" All of Shen Xiang's ancient bizarre poisons were used up. He had to refine some just in case.

He copied strange poisons and continued refining them, which took him three months. The advancement in the Ghostly Pearly Ring was also very slow. After extracting spatial mystic iron, they still needed to further refine it for the quality of spatial mystic iron to rise. Otherwise, the wonders of the magic weapon he refined wouldn't be good.

Shen Xiang stayed here for more than a year without encountering any danger. The nine blood-colored Disaster Stars floating in the air remained as they were, lined up in a straight line without any movement!

Although things have been safe for now, Shen Xiang was still concerned. The only thing that could make him feel at ease is the fact that he won't die here, but from what the jail warden described, it was worse than death.

"What are your plans now" Dragon Xiuyi asked. "Now there's no danger, it looks like this place might start running soon after some time. You can continue practicing and try to refine that divine essence."

Shen Xiang asked, "If my divine essence becomes stronger, will it benefit me in refining the Imperial Soul"

Dragon Xiuyi answered immediately, "Of course it helps. Don't you know that a stronger divine essence is beneficial for refining the divine soul If you didn’t have a divine spirit, do you think you would refine those devoured divine spirits so quickly"

"Of course not, I just feel that refining the Imperial Soul is very difficult for me. It's different from others!"

This wasn't Shen Xiang’s illusion. Dragon Xiuyi also had this feeling, because Shen Xiang's divine spirit was already very strong and more powerful than the emperor-grade spirits of some emperors, but his divine spirit still wasn’t an Imperial Soul.

Dragon Xiuyi said, "This is good news. It means that your Imperial Soul will be very powerful! However, don't worry too much about your Imperial Spirit’s strength. It should have something to do with alchemy, anyway, it will help you."

“Hm, I’ll start refining the Hell Prince’s divine essence now. Don’t be too tired inside as well, anyway, I haven’t come up with a way out yet.”

He wouldn’t let those women out if it weren’t for the danger in this place, he would rather have good talks with them.

Shen Xiang started practicing, refining that divine essence!

A cauldron appeared in his sea of spirit. This was an illusion that he used the Heaven Refinement Technique to create, and inside the cauldron, there was a太極圖 array made up of spiritual patterns. The divine essence floated above the太極圖 pattern, and as the pattern rotated, black gas continuously spewed out of it. The evil consciousness inside the divine essence was forced out. If fused, this would significantly affect him.

“Hell Demon Emperor, no matter how powerful you are, I won't bow to you. Wait and see! Someday, I’ll let you know how powerful I am, don’t think that hiding in hell can make you sleep soundly.”

Shen Xiang was determined in his heart. He clenched his fists, and the Hell Prince’s divine essence instantly shattered inside his Sea of Spirit. It turned into a dazzling crystal and was absorbed by himself.

After absorbing those pieces, his divine essence became much stronger. He felt that the sensitivity of strength in his body had increased and could exploit a stronger potential.

According to Lu Zhen, he needed to strengthen his body in addition to strengthening his divine essence and spirit. Only when they were in balance could they mutually stimulate the strongest power.

“Now is the time to practice your body! If my body can’t keep up, there’s a chance that I won’t be able to refine the Imperial Soul!” Shen Xiang felt that he had improved significantly with each devouring and refining divine spirits. He also always felt like he was close to refining the Imperial Soul, but it had been too long and he still couldn’t refine the Imperial Soul.

So, Shen Xiang decided to strengthen his body!

The Heaven Refinement Technique had a section on refining spirit, and another on refining the body. I’ll try them now! Shen Xiang stood up, spread his legs slightly, and clenched both fists tightly. He was steadily standing on the ground as he started the Heaven Refinement Technique’s body refining section.

A circular pattern appeared under his legs, and spiritual patterns carved with mystic runes emitted dazzling golden light. As countless spiritual patterns appeared, a red light suddenly gushed out and wrapped around his body.

Shen Xiang’s body was enveloped by red light, which looked like flames that kept jumping and circling around his body. There were many small spiritual patterns inside the red light, looking very strange.

At this moment, Shen Xiang only felt that his body had various different feelings and he couldn’t describe it clearly. In short, he was very uncomfortable. The most distinct feeling was that his body seemed to be pulled apart and melted, and his bones seemed to crack. However, it wasn’t very painful, but there was some numbness and occasional faint pain.

He used the Heaven Refinement Technique to practice his body, which was continuously consuming a vast amount of spiritual power in his sea of spirit. This spiritual power could be used again after consumption, which made him feel that this wasn’t wasted.

Naturally, only in such circumstances would he dare to consume spiritual power like this for practice.

When refining his body with the Heaven Refinement Technique, he consumed spiritual power very quickly. Just after half a day, Shen Xiang felt that his already huge amount of spiritual power had been consumed by eighty percent!

If it were normal times, he would be very difficult to consume so much spiritual power at once!

Now he stopped practicing, ate some medicinal pills that could help restore spiritual power, and recovered after two hours. Then he continued refining his body.

After repeating this several times, Shen Xiang felt that there was a significant improvement in his body. However, it was still slow. This way of refining the body under normal circumstances is the fastest method compared to other ways, but it still needs a lot of time for improvement. He thought that he would need at least several thousand years to see the best results.

“There’s no other way. If I want to quicken the strengthening of my body, only divine pills are left. It seems that I need to learn how to refine divine pills here.”

“You can refine divine beast pills and heavenly dragon pills. These are the materials that you can continuously improve,” Dragon Xiuyi said with a smile.

Shen Xiang already understood how to refine the seventh-grade immortal pill, Jade Spirit Pill. But he didn't have these materials for the eight and ninth grades, so he never tried them.

The materials of divine beast pills and heavenly dragon pill can evolve, so if they don’t work, using these materials for practice is also okay. Although it’s not very good, they can still raise your skill level by a certain extent.

“I’ll have to try it. As long as I have enough time, if I can refine divine beast pills and heavenly dragon pills of the eight and ninth grades, I’ll keep trying to refine divine pills. If I can’t create them, they won’t come out.” Shen Xiang already decided to stay here for a while and practice until he could refine divine pills.

Refining divine beast fruits and heavenly dragon pills, even though the grade was improved, there wouldn’t be too much difficulty in refining them. Because the method of refining hasn’t changed, what needed to be adjusted was only controlling the heat. So continuously refining these two pills could make Shen Xiang familiar with controlling heat when refining seventh-grade immortal pills, but there wasn’t much improvement in other aspects.

As long as the improvement of heat control helps him refine divine pills, because he refined alchemy using Heaven Refinement Technique and not the evolvement method!

The evolvement method would have to undergo many trials and errors in order to improve. For example, now Shen Xiang only understood how to refine seventh-grade immortal pills, he needed to use the evolvement method many times refining seventh-grade immortal pills in order to refine eighth-grade. He needed to master all aspects of the seventh-grade immortal pill before he could take another step.

But spirit refinement didn’t need much, as long as he had some experience, his divine spirit and flames were strong enough to know the strength of fire when refining seventh-grade immortal pills.

“Your divine-grade materials are not few. Some of them may have helped your body, separately refined into divine pills is also divine pills. If you have enough quantity, I don’t think there’s a problem with quickly obtaining a strong body.”

“Meng’er, do you need to improve your strength by eating high-grade immortal pills” Shen Xiang asked. “You can put aside the work you have at hand, anyway, I’m not in a hurry to get that ship. It’s more important for you guys to improve your strength.”

“For now, we don’t need it. Refining weapons is also a kind of practice for us every day. If you can refine divine pills, it doesn’t matter if we move slowly.” Liu Meng’er smiled. "You have divine pills, when do we want to quickly get stronger It’s much easier than now! Much better than stubbornly practicing!"

“That’s right, if there’s divine spirit later on that would be even better. You just focus on refining pills and try to refine divine pills as soon as possible.” Xue Xianshi chuckled. "Sister Xiuyi gives us so much delicious food every day, it’s not that different from immortal pills. Don’t worry about me."

"That’s good, then you should work hard," Shen Xiang suddenly felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

“What are you being polite about.” Dong Fang Xinyue said with a scornful snort, "Are you not taking us as your own people"

Shen Xiang chatted casually with the few ladies for a while and started refining immortal pills of eighth-grade divine beast.

An immortal pill of eighth-grade divine beast fruit was placed in the Heaven Dragon Cauldron. Shen Xiang used divine fire to heat it and started melting it down, he felt that the Heaven Refinement Technique allowed him deeper insights. He thought that when refining pills in the future, it would be much easier and would greatly help him.

Now refining divine beast pills really felt much simpler!

In the past, he needed to continuously use spiritual power to attack the spiritual patterns inside the medicines and control powerful flames for burning.

But after gaining deeper insights into the Heaven Refinement Technique, when using spirit refinement now, he made improvements. In the beginning stages of refining medicines, it wasn’t that difficult, but he needed to release spiritual fire with spirituality. This kind of spiritual fire was released through some techniques of the Heaven Refinement Technique, although only a small part looks like that but consumes spiritual power very quickly.

The advantage of this spiritual fire is that it can stabilize and rapidly melt medicines. Now, Shen Xiang controls the intensity of spiritual fire and finds an appropriate temperature, so that he can quickly melt divine beast fruits. Although it needs some adjustments and exploration at the beginning, as soon as he finds an appropriate point, he can quickly melt medicines.ed into a green dragon. Its head shot out terrifying wind force, as it swept through the front grand Ice Palace, smashing its way into the large imperial palace doors that seemed solid and enormous.An...
