Chapter 865: Retreat Again, Tianjian Gorge Opens

Chen Xuan had an idea and took back all the things he had purchased during this trip.

The Nine-bend Array, the ancient Dingjia Talisman, the Small Tiangang Five Elements Array, the teleportation jade talisman, the early Nascent Soul puppet, and the top-grade spiritual talisman.

In addition, there is the recipe for Xuanmu Huayu Pill and the elixir for refining Xuanmu Huayu Pill provided by Xue Jingyao.

Chen Xuan's eyes swept over these things one by one.

After careful tasting, he arranged the next step of cultivation plan.

"Nine-bend formation, ancient Dingjia Talisman, and small Tiangang five-element formation, these three things must be mastered as soon as possible."

"If you want to teleport the jade talisman, you need to find time to try to activate it and see what the specific situation is."

“As for the five puppets of the early Nascent Soul stage and the top-grade spiritual talismans, you only need to familiarize yourself with them. It doesn’t take too much time at all.”

"Finally, the matter of refining the Xuanmu Huayu Pill cannot be left behind. Why don't I refine the Xuanmu Huayu Pill successfully first, and then get busy with other things."

Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, then took out the recipe for the Xuanmu Huayu Pill and studied it carefully.

After half a month in the Beast Taming Tower, Chen Xuan finally understood the recipe of the Xuanmu Huayu Pill.

After a moment of hesitation, Chen Xuan took out all the spiritual medicines needed to refine the Xuanmu Huayu Pill. After carefully selecting them, he activated the Cangling Ding.

hum!

The Soul-Caged Cauldron slowly turned in front of Chen Xuan's eyes, and the golden fire essence below continued to emit terrifyingly high temperatures.

The temperature in the Soul Cauldron also gradually increased at this moment.

After a while, when the temperature in the Cangling Ding reached the optimal temperature for refining the Xuanmu Huayu Pill, Chen Xuan threw the elixir into the Cangling Ding according to the procedures.

Wow!

The terrifying high temperature burned the elixir into ashes on the spot.

Only the extremely pure essence of the medicinal power remains at the bottom of the Soul Storage Cauldron.

Chen Xuan's actions did not stop.

One spell after another hit the Cangling Cauldron.

In just a moment, the temperature in the Soul Cauldron rose significantly again.

The spiritual medicines that Chen Xuan threw into the Cangling Cauldron one after another were also completely refined into medicinal essence at this moment.

Moreover, it becomes more and more refined.

However, Chen Xuan was meticulous and continued to activate the Cangling Cauldron.

After waiting for just over an hour, along with a seven-colored glow emerging from the Cangling Ding, a pure and subtle medicinal fragrance also slowly wafted out from the Cangling Ding.

The lid of the tripod, which was fitted tightly, was shaking.

Chen Xuan looked delighted.

With the flick of his ten fingers, a series of mysterious spells flew rapidly onto the Cangling Cauldron.

After a moment, the lid of the cauldron popped open, and twelve jade-white pills swam out of the Cangling Cauldron at a rapid speed.

Chen Xuan, who was well prepared, simply grabbed the twelve pills and put them into the jade bottle.

hum!

His divine sense fell into the jade bottle and examined it carefully, and a satisfied smile soon appeared at the corner of Chen Xuan's mouth.

"Eight seventh-grade and four sixth-grade. Not bad!"

As he spoke, Chen Xuan put the jade bottle aside and continued to prepare to refine the next batch of pills.

Only one day later, Chen Xuan finally finished refining all the Xuanmu Huayu Pills.

There are six furnaces of elixirs in total.

Chen Xuan kept three furnaces and left the other three to Xue Jingyao.

After finishing these things, Chen Xuan took out the Yuanying early stage puppet and began to control it carefully.

hum!

The moment the divine consciousness fell on the early Nascent Soul puppets, the five puppets with dull expressions suddenly became lively.

At this moment, Chen Xuan clearly felt that there was an indescribable close connection between himself and the five puppets.

Even any of his movements can be clearly sensed by the puppet.

As long as he had a thought, these five Yuanying early stage puppets would act according to his wishes.

"The subtlety of puppetry lies in the fact that one can control these powerful puppets through divine thoughts."

"However, ordinary immortal cultivators are limited by their divine consciousness and can only control two puppets at most."

"After I practiced the ancient divine refining technique, my divine consciousness has become comparable to that of an immortal cultivator in the early stage of divine transformation. That's why I can control five puppets at the same time."

"But this is the limit for me."

Chen Xuan sighed softly while controlling the puppet.

After only two hours, Chen Xuan could control these five puppets with ease.

Next, Chen Xuan did not continue to activate the puppet.

Instead, I took this opportunity to stop and think seriously.

After a long while, Chen Xuan touched the puppet with his finger, and a click sounded.

A dull-colored high-quality spirit stone suddenly popped out from the puppet's body.

Chen Xuan gently pinched them with his hands, and the spirit stones turned into powder in an instant.

"If we only use high-quality spirit stones to activate these puppets, the combat power they exert is a bit weak. Moreover, the activation time is not long enough."

"If we use top-grade spirit stones to activate these puppets, their power will definitely increase. Even their attack power will increase a lot."

Chen Xuan thought for a moment.

He took out five top-grade spirit stones and filled them into the body of the Nascent Soul early stage puppet.

Chen Xuan took this opportunity to control the puppet for a while, then smiled with satisfaction.

"Although there is a short delay between when the puppet receives the order and when it takes action, in many cases, the use of puppets is much better than that of monsters."

"I can now fully control these five Yuanying puppets. From now on, there is no need to waste time on them."

Chen Xuan smiled faintly.

With a wave of his hand, he put away the five Yuanying stage puppets.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xuan made another move and took the ancient Dingjia Talisman in his hand.

On the ancient Dingjia symbol, there is a picture of a giant holding a sledgehammer.

The giant's eyes were wide open, looking extremely majestic.

Chen Xuan's divine sense swept across the ancient Dingjia Talisman, and suddenly found that the giant on the ancient Dingjia Talisman seemed to be alive.

He stared at him fiercely with his huge eyeballs.

"This... although it is a dead object, its spirituality is quite strong."

Chen Xuan looked delighted.

Spiritual energy was rapidly injected into the ancient Dingjia Talisman.

hum!

Followed by a soft beeping sound.

The ancient Dingjia talisman in Chen Xuan's hand was also fully activated by Chen Xuan at this moment.

Soon, the giant on the ancient Dingjia Fu increased rapidly in size.

Soon, the giant's height reached about ten feet.

The huge black iron hammer in his hand exuded a terrifying aura.

Although Chen Xuan was in the late Nascent Soul stage, he still felt oppressed when facing this giant holding a black iron hammer.

"Just judging from the pressure it exudes, its attack power is quite impressive."

"We need to find a place to test it out!"

Chen Xuan's mind moved, and he disappeared quickly.

When he appeared again, he was already in the fire-attributed mimicry space.

Soon, the ancient Dingjia Talisman was activated again by Chen Xuan.

hum!

The moment the giant appeared, Chen Xuan's finger flew rapidly into the void.

"go with!"

After a loud roar, the giant swung the dark hammer in his hand fiercely into the void.

boom!

Accompanied by a sharp explosion, a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from the giant puppet.

Countless violent auras suddenly burst out from the void, gathering into a domineering gale that whooshed into the depths of the void.

A huge hole suddenly appeared in the fire-attributed mimicry space where Chen Xuan was.

"So strong!"

Chen Xuan was shocked.

Just this one attack from the giant at this moment is enough to completely kill a powerful warrior in the late Nascent Soul stage.

If the giant goes all out, even an ordinary Nascent Soul late stage great perfection realm warrior can be killed by him with one hammer.

"Although this ancient Dingjia Talisman is a bit expensive, it is worth every penny!"

Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction.

After playing with the ancient Dingjia Talisman for a while, he put it away.

This time, Chen Xuan did not leave the fire-attributed mimicry space.

Taking this opportunity, he took out the Small Tiangang Five Elements Array Formation Plate and the Nine-Curve Array Formation Plate and began to fiddle with them.

At this moment, Chen Xuan was fully immersed in these things, completely unaware that time was passing by.

Just when Chen Xuan was in seclusion again, preparing to enter Tianjian Gorge.

The Black Cloud Saint Ancestor, who was in charge of Mingyue City, was also planning this.

At this moment, in the cave where he was staying, there were dozens of powerful demons in the late Nascent Soul stage, all gathered in front of him.

The Black Cloud Saint Ancestor glanced at these powerful demons and immediately revealed a look of satisfaction.

"Although you are all in the late Nascent Soul stage, you are the elite force of our demon clan."

"Originally, this Saint Ancestor planned to have you go to the front lines to fight and hone your combat capabilities."

"However, this Saint Ancestor heard that the famous Tianjian Gorge in Fuyao Realm is about to open. Therefore, this Saint Ancestor intends to let all of you enter Tianjian Gorge. What do you think?"

All the powerful demons present in the late Nascent Soul stage were filled with ecstasy.

"Master Shengzu, we will naturally follow your arrangements."

"Your Excellency, I have heard about the Heavenly Sword Gorge a long time ago. It is said that this is the real relic of the ancient True Immortal Realm. If we can enter it, it will be of great benefit to our demon race."

"As powerful demons, even if there is no benefit in entering Tianjian Gorge, as long as I can kill the ants of Fuyao Realm, I will not hesitate."

After hearing this, Saint Ancestor Black Cloud smiled with satisfaction.

"I am very pleased that you think so. Now, it won't be long before the Tianjian Gorge opens. You should hurry up and prepare to leave."

"Remember, as powerful demons, you must always focus on killing the ants of the Fuyao Realm."

After the powerful demons responded in unison, they quickly left.

Seeing that Tianjian Gorge is about to open, all major forces in the Fuyao world are also planning this matter intensively.

The Tianmo Sect, Sanqing Taoist Sect, Tianxing Sect, Xianle Palace and other sects that are among the top ten immortal cultivators in Zhongzhou are also constantly summoning Nascent Soul talents in their sects to represent them in Tianjian Gorge.

After a while, another month passed.

Chen Xuan, who was in seclusion in the Beast Taming Tower, didn't know what he noticed. Suddenly, his figure flashed and disappeared at a high speed.

When he appeared again, he was already outside the palace where he was staying.

Chen Xuan was surprised to see Master Xiao Yun, Master Qi Yun, Xue Jingyao, and several powerful late Nascent Soul masters from the Alchemist Association all waiting outside.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. However, you all came together at this moment. Could it be that the Heavenly Sword Gorge is about to open?"
