Chapter 288: Retreat and strive for Dan

hum!

Chen Xuan heard the sound of strong wind.

Soon, Chen Xuan disappeared above the Earth Void Sea.

When Chen Xuan appeared again, he found that he was not far from Xunyang City.

Chen Xuan flipped his hand, took out the map of Cangwu grassland, studied it in detail, and immediately rushed towards Xunyang City.

A few days later, Chen Xuan, who had activated the Three Thousand Hidden Spirit Mirrors and changed his appearance and aura, successfully arrived in Xunyang City.

After asking around, Chen Xuan spent 500,000 low-grade spirit stones on a top-grade spirit vein in Xunyang City, rented a cave, and moved in.

hum!

Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the protective formation in the cave was fully activated.

At this moment, Chen Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I gained a lot during this trip to the Earth Void Sea. Not only did I successfully obtain the Holy Mountain Spiritual Fluid, but I also gathered all the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Heavenly Palace Spiritual Pill."

"Now, I have reached the great perfection of the late foundation building stage. With a little preparation, I can strive for the Jindan stage."

Chen Xuan smiled happily.

Over the years, he has been practicing hard every day, striving to break through to the Jindan stage as soon as possible.

However, as a cultivator with four spiritual roots, Chen Xuan's speed in refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is much slower than that of cultivators with three spiritual roots, double spiritual roots, and heavenly spiritual roots.

If it weren't for the cold pool in the Beast Taming Tower, which allowed Chen Xuan to consume his lifespan in exchange for a means of upgrading his realm, Chen Xuan asked himself that he would never be able to reach the great perfection of the late stage of foundation building by just practicing meditation.

Looking back on his cultivation journey over the years, Chen Xuan felt very fortunate.

"Thanks to the help of the Beast Taming Tower, otherwise I would not even have the chance to become a disciple of the Yuling Sect, let alone have my current cultivation level."

Having said that, Chen Xuan paused slightly.

After a moment, Chen Xuan said again: "Right now, I'd better seize the time and prepare for Danjie seriously."

There are so many things that need to be prepared in order to reach the Jindan stage.

First of all, it is helpful to consult a large number of experiences of senior masters who have reached the Jindan stage. This is of great significance to every cultivator who is about to reach the Jindan stage.

Secondly, all kinds of natural treasures needed to reach the Jindan stage must be prepared.

Finally, when striving for the Jindan stage, one needs a strong person to protect him.

These conditions are indispensable.

Chen Xuan was not busy practicing at this moment.

After releasing all his monsters to guard his cave, he went directly into the space of the Beast Taming Tower.

call!

All around, extremely rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth was rapidly gathering.

After Chen Xuan found a place to sit down, he carefully sorted out the entire process of impacting the Jindan stage and all the things he needed to prepare.

This process is boring and tedious, but very important.

Chen Xuan sat quietly where he was, making preparations one by one.

Only after waiting for more than ten days did Chen Xuan make a list of all the things he needed to prepare.

Afterwards, Chen Xuan went out again, acquired some records related to other people's efforts to achieve Dan, and then returned to the space of the Beast Taming Tower.

After finishing these things, all of Chen Xuan's work finally got on track.

"Next, I need to refine the Tianque Lingdan to increase the probability of forming a pill. Then, adjust my mindset and prepare to impact the Jindan stage."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly.

To be on the safe side, Chen Xuan summoned all the monsters in again.

The Red-tailed Scorpion King, the Ice and Fire Dragon, the Purple-winged Spirit Bat, the Purple Lightning Golden Roc, and the Golden Sparrow Spirit Swallow all appeared in front of Chen Xuan.

At this moment, all the monsters stood obediently in front of Chen Xuan.

"Don't be so nervous. I called you all here because I need to tell you something, so that you won't be caught off guard by any unexpected situations."

"In the next period of time, I plan to retreat and strive for the Jindan stage. As for whether I can succeed, I am not sure myself."

"So, during the time I'm in seclusion, you guys just guard the cave."

"When I strive for the Jindan stage, you must protect me. Remember, don't let anyone disturb me."

When Chen Xuan said this, his serious gaze swept over all the monsters one by one.

After seeing all the monsters nod, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Okay, you guys go and do your own things. I'm going to retreat as well."

Chen Xuan waved his hand and sent all the monsters out of the Beast Taming Tower.

But he himself was not idle.

With a flip of his hand, he took out the recipe for refining the Tianque Spiritual Pill and all the spiritual medicines.

hum!

Chen Xuan's mind quickly fell on the recipe of the Tianque Lingdan, and he carefully comprehended it.

Refining the Tianque Elixir was not very difficult for Chen Xuan.

But he still didn't dare to be careless.

He was afraid that he would make a mistake during the alchemy process and waste the dragon saliva and nameless grass that he had collected with great difficulty.

More than half a year had passed in the Beast Taming Tower.

Chen Xuan finally completely comprehended the recipe of Tianque Lingdan.

At this moment, Chen Xuan was not busy refining pills.

Instead, seize the time to meditate and regulate your breathing.

After his spirit, energy, and the spiritual power in his dantian had reached their peak, he then activated the Fiery Black Cauldron.

call!

At the bottom of the Fiery Black Cauldron, an extremely hot flame burned rapidly.

The temperature in the Fiery Black Cauldron also rose rapidly at this moment.

Chen Xuan’s divine consciousness quickly fell into the Fiery Cauldron.

Carefully feel the temperature changes in the Fiery Cauldron.

After the temperature in the Fiery Black Cauldron reached the optimal temperature for refining the Tianque Spirit Pill, he threw the nameless grass directly into it.

boom!

The impurities in the nameless grass were burned to ashes in an instant and quickly discharged out of the Fiery Black Cauldron.

There was only one drop of extremely pure medicinal essence, spinning in the flaming cauldron.

Chen Xuan looked normal, and after a moment he poured the Xuanlong saliva into the Fiery Black Cauldron.

boom!

The flames beneath the Fiery Black Cauldron grew rapidly.

In less than a breath, the temperature in the Fiery Cauldron increased by 30%.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan threw the remaining elixirs into the Fiery Black Cauldron in an orderly manner.

After working for more than an hour, all the elixirs were finally refined.

At this moment, in the Fiery Black Cauldron, the extremely pure essence of medicinal power is being continuously purified under the action of the terrifyingly high temperature.

A strong medicinal fragrance also emanated from the Fiery Cauldron.

At this time, Chen Xuan became more cautious.

He controlled the Fiery Black Cauldron carefully and step by step, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Just waiting for time, another three hours passed.

After the medicinal essence in the Fiery Black Cauldron was completely purified, the magic spells in Chen Xuan's hands changed one after another.

Under Chen Xuan's guidance, the extremely rich medicinal essence quickly condensed into a pill.

After a moment, a seven-colored glow emerged from the sky above the Fiery Cauldron.

It is a sign that the best elixir is about to be born.

"It's done!"

Chen Xuan looked very happy.

But he still didn't dare to be careless.

After making sure that the elixir in the Fiery Black Cauldron had been completely condensed, Chen Xuan changed the spell and opened the lid of the Fiery Black Cauldron.

boom!

After a slight sound, the lid of the Fiery Black Cauldron opened instantly.

Twenty jade-white Tianque Lingdans flew towards Chen Xuan at a rapid speed.

Chen Xuan, who was well prepared, pointed his fingers quickly.

Safely put these Tianque elixirs into the jade bottle.

"Each one is of top quality. However, these pills alone may not be enough to reach the Jindan stage."

Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, and then hurried to continue refining the Tianque Lingdan.

A day later, the work of refining the Tianque Elixir was finally completed.

At this moment, in front of Chen Xuan, there were five bottles of top-grade Tianque Lingdan.

After Chen Xuan's eyes swept over these Tianque elixirs one by one, he immediately smiled with satisfaction.

“Although refining the Tianque Elixir takes a long time, it is well worth it.”

"Now, I have prepared the elixir that can increase the probability of forming a pill. In addition, I also have three bottles of Holy Mountain Spiritual Fluid."

"Next, I just need to take a good look at the experience summaries of others who have reached the Jindan stage."

Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out several jade slips.

These jade slips were the ones he bought when he went to Xunyang City last time. They recorded the process of other people's breakthroughs to the Jindan stage.

Chen Xuan read it carefully, word by word, and spent time to thoroughly understand the parts he didn't understand, and then he stopped.

At this moment, more than half a year has passed in the Beast Taming Tower.

Chen Xuan was not in a hurry at all.

After he spent some time recovering his energy and spirit to its peak state, he left the Beast Taming Tower.

When Chen Xuan appeared again, he was already in the rented cave.

His divine sense swept through the cave.

Seeing the monsters performing their duties and protecting his safety, Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction.

"Next, I will really make a breakthrough to the Jindan stage. I just don't know if I can succeed in making the breakthrough to the Jindan stage with such thorough preparation this time." Chen Xuan said.

The elixir formation period!

This is the realm that every cultivator in the foundation-building stage dreams of.

The vast majority of immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage will never have the opportunity to achieve the golden core in their entire life.

Chen Xuan is not very old, but he has the opportunity to reach the Jindan stage.

Just based on this point alone, I wonder how many cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage will be envious to death.

call!

Chen Xuan let out a long sigh, and after his mind had completely calmed down, he activated the True Art of Controlling Spirits.

The foundation-building exercises were now fully activated by Chen Xuan.

All around, vast spiritual energy rapidly poured into Chen Xuan's body, and was refined into pure spiritual power, rushing towards his dantian.

However, there was no obvious change in Chen Xuan's aura.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan took out a Tianque Lingdan without hesitation and threw it into his mouth.

Wow!

The extremely strong medicinal power rapidly exploded in Chen Xuan's body.

In just a moment, the rich medicinal power was refined into extremely pure spiritual power and fell into Chen Xuan's dantian.

The realm that had not been improved for a long time was actually improving steadily at this moment.

This made Chen Xuan even more happy.

"It is worthy of being called the Tianque Spirit Pill. Even though I am already at the late stage of foundation building, it can help me to steadily improve my realm."

"I just don't know if I can succeed in reaching the Jindan stage this time."

After Chen Xuan muttered to himself for a while, he entered into a state of meditation and cultivation again.
