Cultivating To Immortality

It was strange to say, but the spiritual energy within the guangyin stele space was clearly abundant, enough to nurture high-level Demon Beasts, yet in reality, there were only low-level Demon Beasts.

After many tests, Fang Hong finally uncovered the secret: this space was simply not suitable for meditating and Qi Refining.

No matter how much spiritual energy was absorbed, it would slowly dissipate within the body, unable to transform into magical power, essentially making it a wasted effort.

This was probably a unique restriction accompanying the Guangyin Array; this space was created specifically for spirit medicine, only suitable for the growth of spiritual plants, but not for other living beings to cultivate and grow long-term.

Fang Hong didn't mind this.

Anyway, he didn't plan to cultivate here long-term; as long as he could use it to cultivate spirit medicine, that was enough.

Five days passed in a flash, and Fang Hong's figure moved back and forth within the guangyin stele space, finally gathering all the medicinal ingredients he could find.

The harvest this time was so abundant that it could be called a great harvest.

Counting them, he had gathered over ten thousand thousand-year spirit medicine, and even more pleasantly, there were also fifteen incomparably rare ten-thousand-year spirit medicine among them.

Spirit medicine of various attributes and various effects were all available, especially those fifteen ten-thousand-year varieties.

Previously, Fang Hong had only seen descriptions in ancient records, but now, seeing them vividly in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

With this reserve of spirit medicine, Fang Hong could once again engage in extensive alchemy.

Coincidentally, he had two types of medicinal pill suitable for Void Refining Cultivators to consume, Pure Yang Pill and Primal Yang Pill.

He found these two pill formulas among the items left behind by the Gray-robed Old Man in the Star Tower, and with his current spirit medicine inventory, refining these two medicinal pill was more than enough.

Of course, Fang Hong kept the roots of all these spirit medicine.

In a few years, a new batch of thousand-year spirit medicine would grow in the guangyin stele, thus forming a continuous supply of medicinal ingredients.

Fang Hong returned to his Immortal Cave on Yuan Huang Peak, went to the alchemy secret chamber, took out a large pile of spirit medicine, and began to refine Pure Yang Pills and Primal Yang Pills.

For three days and three nights, the secret chamber was filled with the fragrance of medicinal pill and shimmering with auspicious light.

One furnace after another of medicinal pill were successfully refined, round and full, emitting pure Origin Qi fluctuations, each one of them of the highest quality.

As soon as the medicinal pill were refined, Fang Hong eagerly entered the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron.

He sat cross-legged, absorbed the medicinal pill into his abdomen one by one, and circulated his cultivation technique to fully refine and absorb their medicinal power, quickly improving his own cultivation.

…

Time flowed, and another year passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron suddenly burst forth with a brilliant light, and Fang Hong's figure leaped out from within.

His aura was a level higher than it had been a year ago.

In this year, Fang Hong had refined and absorbed hundreds of Pure Yang Pills and Primal Yang Pills.

With the combined power of the two medicinal pill, his cultivation successfully broke through, successfully entering the realm of Void Refining Middle Stage.

If not for his body gradually developing resistance to the Pure Yang Pills and Primal Yang Pills, causing the medicinal power to no longer be effective, he would have truly wanted to continue immersing himself in cultivation and strive for a higher realm.

Compared to the breakthrough in cultivation, the improvement in physical body strength and Divine Sense was slightly slower, only reaching the peak of the Void Refining Middle Stage, which was a small increase.

Since advancing to the Void Refining realm, Fang Hong clearly felt that the tempering of the physical body by the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron and the nourishment of Divine Sense by the Soul Nurturing Pearl were no longer as significant as before.

Fang Hong had long anticipated this.

After all, the higher the cultivation, the greater the accumulation required for each step forward, and naturally, the more difficult the improvement.

To achieve significant improvements as before, it seemed the only way was to find a way to upgrade the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron and Soul Nurturing Pearl again, so they could once again exert their powerful tempering effects.

After this year of alchemy and cultivation, his medicinal ingredient reserves were almost exhausted.

Now that the Pure Yang Pills and Primal Yang Pills were ineffective, the most urgent task was to find more high-level pill formulas, and at the same time, utilize the magical effects of the guangyin stele to cultivate more thousand-year spirit medicine.

Regarding pill formulas, Fang Hong already had a plan in mind; as long as he went to the Profound Fallen Realm, the pill formula problem should be smoothly resolved.

After all, the Profound Fallen Realm was a place where cultivators gathered, with many powerful sects with long-standing legacies. Obtaining several high-level pill formulas there shouldn't be difficult, right?

Having made up his mind, Fang Hong put away the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron and flew away from Yuan Huang Peak.

Before setting off for the Profound Fallen Realm, he still had one more thing to do. It was to make a trip to the Heavenly Azure Sea Domain to see if he could acquire the secret treasure from the Dragon Palace.

Fang Hong clearly remembered that the Dragon Palace not only contained various ancient inheritance treasures but also a large amount of rare spirit medicine.

With his current Cultivation at the Void Refining Middle Stage, he might be capable of completely subduing the entire Dragon Palace.

…

In less than half an hour, Fang Hong's figure appeared above the Four Seas Sect.

His gaze swept downwards, and he suddenly noticed a tall statue of a figure standing prominently at the mountain gate of the Four Seas Sect.

The statue was carved lifelike, reaching into the clouds, with a magnificent aura, quite spectacular.

And when he clearly saw the face of the statue, Fang Hong couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

The face of the statue was exactly like his own.

Seeing this scene, Fang Hong was momentarily dazed, then shook his head and smiled.

This Xiao Yu actually built such a magnificent statue for him; she was treating him as an immortal god to be worshipped, one who protected the sect.

With a slight movement in his heart, Fang Hong formed a hand seal with one hand, a golden light condensed at his fingertip, and he gently flicked it towards the statue.

The golden light merged into the statue, quietly leaving behind a powerful restriction.

Fang Hong was about to leave the Heavenly Profound Realm for the Profound Fallen Realm, a long journey ahead, not knowing when he would return, or even if he would ever return.

This restriction was a safeguard he left for the Four Seas Sect.

As long as they didn't encounter a powerful enemy of the Void Refining Stage level, with this restriction protecting them, it would be enough to ensure the Four Seas Sect's stability and prosperity for ten thousand years.

Having done all this, Fang Hong's figure flickered, and he silently returned to his exclusive Immortal Cave in the Four Seas Sect.

He raised his hand and threw out a communication talisman; the talisman paper transformed into a stream of light and flew towards the distance.

Not long after, a light footsteps sound came from outside the Immortal Cave pavilion, and Xiao Yu's figure appeared at the entrance.

"Brother Fang, you've finally returned from your training."

Upon seeing Fang Hong again, Xiao Yu's face was beaming with joy, and her tone was full of excitement.

Fang Hong smiled and nodded.

After many years, Xiao Yu's appearance hadn't changed much; she was still as enthusiastic and lively as ever.

However, her Aura was much thicker than before, her vultivation had clearly improved significantly, and she was now a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator.

"Brother Fang, your cultivation? You must have already Broke through to the Divine Transformation Stage, right?" Xiao Yu curiously sized up Fang Hong.

She found that she couldn't see through Fang Hong's cultivation depth at all.

"Yes, I've Broke through to Divine Transformation." Fang Hong smiled, not explaining the details too much.

Xiao Yu probably never dreamed that Fang Hong was already at the Void Refining Middle Stage now.
