Chapter 38: Quenching by Water and Fire
Yue Ling'er and Su Huang continuously gave Jiang Nan sideways glances, wondering in their hearts why Jiang Nan was so certain just now that these stones were rare and exotic treasures.
"Father, this is what Zichuan asked my daughter to buy, my daughter doesn't dare to take credit for it."
Yue Ling'er came to her senses and hurriedly said, "Just now, Zichuan said that if he made a profit on this deal, he would give him a copy of my Pill King's House's Divine Power Level Pill Formulas, as well as equip it with ten stoves of spirit pills. If he loses, he will refine spirit pills for my Pill King Mansion for a year. Father, is this deal a profit or a loss?"
"Earned? More than that! These pieces of treasure are not ordinary minerals, but divine gold that can only be sacrificed by an expert who has cultivated divine aptitude, a spirit that is used to refine divine aptitude magic treasures, hard to find in the whole world, and no less than ten times more expensive than divine aptitude level spirit pills! In other words, that transaction just now, you made a minimum of ten times!"
Yue Shiting also surveyed Jiang Nan repeatedly, his eyes showing a strange color as he laughed, "You're Zichuan? You saved my daughter's life, you are already a VIP of my Pill King's Mansion, and now that you have a discerning eye for treasures, can't a mere Avatar-level Dan formula express the gratitude in Yue's heart? My Medicine King House nothing else, is the elixir of the Dan formula more, my Medicine King House storage Dan formula of the Myriad Dan Pavilion let you in and out, want to learn what Dan formula you can choose! Since you want to learn alchemy, Mister Yue will also let the best alchemist in my Medicine King's Mansion to teach you alchemy, and all the medicinal herbs will be at your disposal!"
Yue Ling'er couldn't help but laugh, "Father, you don't know, Zi Chuan's standard of alchemy is definitely not bad ......"
She was about to tell Jiang Nan about the refining of the Ten Percent Dan, when Jiang Nan hurriedly coughed, Yue Ling'er woke up and hurriedly kept her mouth shut.
Yue Shiting, however, did not think much about it and turned around to leave, supposedly preparing to prepare the funds to buy the Heavenly Roc Feathering Great Law. Although the Pill King's House is rich, but there is no particularly profound martial arts method, this time the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Roc Feathering Dharma he must get it no matter what, so there is no time to be distracted to think about the things in Jiangnan.
Su Huang couldn't help but be envious and said, ''Congratulations to Brother Zichuan. The Myriad Dan Pavilion of the Pill King's Mansion is a sanctuary that countless alchemists dream of, in which there are all-encompassing Dan formulas, top-grade Dan formulas extreme Dan formulas, and even ancient Dan formulas, and even my Jianwu Kingdom's royal family is envious of the Myriad Dan Pavilion!"
Jiang Nan also had a few moments of excitement in his heart, and after continuing to stroll for a few moments with Su Huang and Yue Ling'er, he returned to the Pill King Mansion's residence.
When he thought about today's harvest, his heart couldn't help but quickly beat a few more times.
The Myriad Dan Pavilion was definitely an important place in the Pill King Mansion, and Yue Shiting probably thought that he was only interested in alchemy, but his actual alchemy standard was not good, which was why he would so painfully allow him to freely enter and exit the Myriad Dan Pavilion.
If he had known that Jiang Nan actually possessed such a treasure as the Toutiao Divine Flame, which could easily refine ten percent of the spirit pills, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been so pleased.
In addition to the power to enter and exit the Myriad Dan Pavilion, there was also the Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique, the Feathering Technique that had made countless people's hearts flutter, and the Heart Technique that even Divine Wheel powerhouses struggled with, which had been deduced by him with the Devil's Prison Xuan Tire Scripture!
In a short while, he would be able to deduce the first few moves of the Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique in its entirety!
Compared to the Divine Seal of the Bright King, the Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique was much inferior, the Magic Bell of the Devil's Prison Xuan Tire Scripture had taken eight days to deduce the Divine Seal of the Bright King, while the time needed to deduce the Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique was much less, and it was also much easier.
What made Jiang Nan even more excited was that he had actually harvested a string of Buddha beads this time, which contained rich water energy, not only did the water method of alchemy finally have a brow, but he could finally do what Jiang Xue had said about the blending of water and fire, and quenching the essence, qi, god, and body!
Jiang Nan couldn't wait to take out the string of Buddhist beads, and with a gentle twist, he twisted the golden threads connecting the jade beads, and took out the jade bead that contained the water elemental force.
Within the jade bead, the drop of water was crystal clear, glowing with all sorts of colors, as he gazed at it, he saw that the drop of water was actually also divided into many circles, one circle of one color, a total of six kinds.
"Green, blue, green, white, red and black six colors, then this must be the Underworld Divine Water that Sister Jiang Xue once mentioned."
Jiang Nan pondered, "The effect of the Underworld Divine Water is greatly inferior to the Yellow Springs Divine Water, and much inferior to the Touting Divine Flame, but for me to only utilize the first one or two layers of Divine Water to refine my body at the moment, there is no difference between the Underworld Divine Water and the Yellow Springs Divine Water. The stall owner who sold me this string of beads got this string of beads from somewhere, could it be that he really has been to some ancient cave?"
Ancient caves like this can be encountered but not sought, depending on chance, Jiang Nan had heard Tie Zhu, the long-tongued man mentioned many legends, it is said that some people lost their footing and fell off the cliff, but the result of the disaster did not die, but fell into an ancient cave, and gained the secret method of the divine power, and from then on soared to the heavens. There are also people jumping off the cliff in a line, but the result is that they all fell to pieces.
Jiang Nan did not think much, gently pinched and crushed the jade bead, only to see the drop of water in the jade bead suddenly fall off, falling downwards, Jiang Nan a true qi rolled up the drop of water and fell into his brow.
His brow was cooled, and the water bead immediately concealed itself in his brow and disappeared.
Jiang Nan closed his eyes and looked into his brow center, "only to see" a candle flame floating quietly in his brow center, a drop of water bead, the candle flame was on top of the water bead, extremely peculiar.
"I heard sister Jiang Xue say that the Purple Mansion in the center of the eyebrow, only after cultivating the Divine Wheel can the Purple Mansion be developed, allowing the Divine Wheel to evolve into a divine ability! After the Violet Mansion is opened up, refining magic treasures with divine abilities is hidden in the Violet Mansion."
Jiang Nan secretly said, "The Underworld Divine Water also has several layers of true water, one layer has a stronger impact than the other, if used skillfully, it is a treasure for refining the body and alchemy, if I accidentally touch the deeper layers of Divine Water, I'm afraid that these water elemental forces can brush me to the point that I don't even have half of a bone crumb left!"
He carefully separated his true qi into two channels, triggering the Doodle Divine Flame and the Underworld Divine Water respectively, and instantly, the water and fire came together in parallel, rushing through his entire body.
Jiang Nan let out a muffled grunt as a fishy breath rushed up in his throat, the water elemental force and fire elemental force collided with each other within his body, exploding with every collision, causing him to suffer a heavy injury in an instant!
Water and fire, also called yin and yang, also called dragon and tiger, are two strange forces that restrain each other, but if you can water and fire, yin and yang, you can achieve incomparable results!
However, if you want to do water and fire, yin and yang parallel birth, but incomparably difficult, very few people can do.
This could be said to be the difficult problem that trapped the vast majority of people practicing martial arts, and even if one cultivated a divine ability, very few people would be able to do so. Only a heart technique of extremely high grade could trap water and fire, making yin and yang compatible, and dragons and tigers subdued!
"I wonder if my Demon Prison Xuan Tire Sutra can subdue the dragon and tiger? If I can't subdue it, I'll lose half of my life this time even if I don't die!"
Cold sweat rolled across Jiang Nan's forehead as he hurriedly urged the Devil Prison Xuan Tire Scripture to encompass the water elemental force of the Divine Water and the fire elemental force of the Divine Fire, only to feel that the water elemental force of the Underworld Divine Water and the fire elemental force of the Toutiao Divine Flame were no longer so furious, and they gradually became compatible in his true qi, running in parallel and not going against each other, rushing through his body, quenching his meridians, sinews, flesh, skin and bones, true qi, and spirit.
He even felt that some of the impurities in his body that were not originally refined by the Toutiao Divine Flame, and even the bone marrow that could not be refined by the Divine Flame, were seeped into by the Underworld Divine Water, which poured away the impurities, making his bone marrow as if it was jade pulp!
Even his true qi and astral energy were cleansed and tempered, becoming even tougher.
What amazed him the most was that the Demon Seed in his dantian was also quenched by the Underworld Divine Water and the Doodle Divine Flame, becoming snow-white and silvery, refining his true qi into astral energy at a much faster rate!
"No wonder Sister Jiang Xue said that water and fire quenching is the best method for refining the body and alchemy, it is indeed so!"
Jiang Nan was surprised and delighted, only feeling that the impurities in his body were being scrubbed and cast over and over again, with the divine fire refining and the divine water quenching, the effect was several times better than just one type of divine fire!
Not long after, Jiang Nan only felt that the medicinal power of the Shelly Spirit Pill he had taken earlier was exhausted, and the astral energy in his body had also increased by as much as one or two percent, so he hurriedly took another one.
The power in his body was also climbing, and in just a few hours he had raised the power of the Five Tigers, and the power of the Four Elephants and Five Tigers!
After a long time, the two types of Yuan Power then dissipated.
Jiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief and silenced his mind, his true qi began to follow a strange route, suddenly only a whirring sound could be heard as his true qi overflowed and transformed into a palm-sized black feather.
Then, more black feathers transformed by his true qi appeared, densely packed with thousands of them, and then only heard the sound of clanging coming from his body, transforming into a skeleton-like condensation of true qi behind his back, like a pair of wings made of bones.
The wind whistled, densely packed black feathers flew, landing on top of the pair of bone wings, turning the pair of bone wings into black wings!
This was clearly the Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique!
The authentic Heavenly Roc Feathering Grand Technique was to transform into a pair of roc's golden wings, whereas Jiang Nan's true qi was actually transformed into a pair of black wings due to the Demon Prison Xuan Tire Scripture, making it almost difficult to tell that this technique was the Heavenly Roc Feathering Grand Technique!
"I wonder if the Heavenly Roc Feathering Grand Technique I deduced can fly? The roc spreads its wings and hates the low sky!"
Jiang Nan catalyzed the Heavenly Roc Feathering Great Technique, and with a double wing strike, he flew up more than two zhang in height with a whirring sound, speeding through the house, coming and going like the wind.
Jiang Nan was overjoyed in his heart, flying back and forth to practice, figuring out the trick of spreading his wings and flying, after a small half hour, he suddenly felt a sharp pain sensation coming from his brow, his true qi collapsed with a crash, shattering along with his bone wings, Jiang Nan suddenly lost control of his body, and fell from the sky above.
"Eh?"
He pointed his toes and landed lightly on the ground, frowning slightly, "Strange, my deduced Heavenly Roc Feathering Technique may not necessarily be inferior to the authentic Heart Technique, so how could it only be able to fly for a small amount of half an hour? Could it be that only astral energy can support this heart method and soar freely?"
Jiang Nan pondered carefully, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind, "It may not be because my True Qi is not strong enough, I'm afraid it's due to the fact that my Essence is not yet strong enough to sustainably support winged flight!"
Jiang Xue had once told him that when one cultivated to the realm of the Big Dipper, the stronger one's Essence and Spirit were, the stronger the power of the Big Dipper would be.
Essence, Qi and Spirit can actually be described as Blood, Qi and Spirit, Qi is the True Spirit, Spirit is the huge energy contained in the blood veins, and "Spirit" is the most subtle, representing the will and intention of a martial arts expert, and in the future, when he cultivates into the Divine Chakra, and refines his Divine Ability, it will be transformed into the Divine Idea.
The stronger the spirit, the greater the cohesion of the real qi, and the more powerful the moves will be. This was not obvious when the realm was low, but it would suddenly come to the fore when the martial arts were cultivated to the extent that the astral energy was externalized.
