Chapter 681: Transformation into a Mortal Pill

"Senior, according to your method, before you can cultivate the golden elixir, you need to disperse your magic power and rebuild your dantian before you can succeed? Isn't this the same as ordinary people?"

"Of course it's different. You are a cultivator in the magic power period. Even if you disperse your magic power, you still have hundreds of years of life. Your consciousness and true essence are still there. How can ordinary people compare with you?"

"But this method of casting elixir is too strange. If you encounter a strong enemy after dispersing your magic power, won't you have no power to protect yourself?"

"Hehe, so you have to be careful during this period. Don't get involved in the disputes of cultivators, and don't let others discover your identity. Otherwise, you will lose your life instead of making elixir. I haven't finished refining your lifeblood yet, and I don't want to die with you."

"Although the method of casting elixir that I taught you will make you lose your magic power, it is only temporary. Moreover, because your skills are different from those of ordinary people, the spiritual energy required to form elixir is also several times that of ordinary people. If you don't make your Dantian strong, even if you succeed in forming a pill, it will break immediately because your Dantian is too weak to bear it. "

"In that case, we can only go to the mortal world to hide..."

"It's not bad to go to the mortal world, at least it's safer than the immortal world. But you don't have to worry. Even if you lose your mana, don't you still have many spirit pets and flying swords? These can be driven by divine consciousness. Although the attack power will be greatly reduced without mana, it is enough for you to protect yourself. Moreover, this method will also allow you to restore half an hour of mana every night at midnight. If you really encounter any danger, I think you can handle it. "

"That makes sense. In that case, let's go to the mortal world. It's better to be able to restore half an hour of mana every night at midnight than to really become a mortal. And for the sake of safety, I also refined some talismans for self-defense. "

"..."

On a green path, Ye Chunyang walked slowly with his hands on the back of his head. Although he seemed to be relaxed on the surface, he was actually very depressed while talking to Guanglingzi.

At this moment, he was on his way to Yuanzhou.

Yuanzhou was the largest country in the southwest of Dongzhou. There were many forces here, but there were many immortal mountains and treasures, which attracted cultivators from all walks of life to come here. While hiding here, they could also absorb spiritual energy for cultivation.

More importantly, it was far away from the righteous and evil ways, so it was safer for him to practice here, and he could also find out more about the Dongzhou immortal world.

Ye Chunyang was also very depressed for doing this. It had been four months since he returned to Dongzhou from Tianxinghai, but he chose to walk all the way, because he had no mana in his body at the moment, and he couldn't even fly with a sword, and he had become a mortal completely.

All this started from a conversation with Guanglingzi two months ago, when Ye Chunyang asked about the requirements for Dan. Guanglingzi was knowledgeable and was like a moving treasure beside him. With his guidance, he could avoid many detours.

The fact was just as Ye Chunyang wished. Guanglingzi told him many secrets of advancing from the mana stage to the elixir stage, which made him fascinated for a while. After all, he had already reached the peak of the late mana stage, and it was a good time to condense the golden elixir and improve his cultivation.

But what he didn't expect was that Guanglingzi's subsequent words made him speechless in an instant.

Because Ye Chunyang practiced the three methods of the Origin Heavenly Scripture, the Refining Spirit Technique, and the Immortal Golden Body Technique at the same time, each advancement required several times more spiritual energy than others, and the elixir stage was a watershed on the road to cultivation. When the golden elixir was formed, a strong elixir fire would be formed. Once the elixir field could not bear it, the elixir would be shattered and the person would die.

It was so dangerous for ordinary people to advance, and the spiritual power generated by the combination of Ye Chunyang's three methods was even more imaginable. Even if the practice of the Immortal Golden Body Technique made his body tougher than ordinary people, such a strong elixir fire would be absolutely irresistible.

In this regard, Ye Chunyang was surprised and even more afraid of the elixir stage. But how could he give up easily? Guanglingzi also had a special method for this matter, which was to recast the Dantian.

Recasting the Dantian, as the name suggests, is to use a special method to re-temper the Dantian, making it tougher and reaching the level of being able to withstand the Dan fire. At that time, Guanglingzi gave Ye Chunyang a method to recast the Dantian, but after careful consideration, Ye Chunyang's face became ugly.

This method actually requires the mana to be dispersed and transformed into a mortal to practice again.

It is not entirely true to say that he has to practice again. After all, he is already a late-stage mana cultivator. He just needs to use this Dan-casting method to reverse the meridians for 33 cycles every day during the period of dispersing the mana, aiming to make the meridians tough and the Dantian expand.

However, every time this method is used, the feeling of the meridians being broken is not very pleasant.

Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang sighed helplessly.

In fact, he had hesitated before choosing to practice Guanglingzi's method of making pills, but after studying this method, Ye Chunyang found that once he succeeded, he could have at least a 30% chance of forming a golden pill, and the time would be greatly shortened.

You should know that once you reach the bottleneck of the mana period, everyone is extremely afraid of the pill fire, and most people cannot bear it and break the pill immediately after forming the pill. The lighter ones will regress in realm, and the heavier ones will turn into ashes on the spot and die from then on.

It can be seen how precious this 30% chance is!

Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, Ye Chunyang must give it a try.

"Now that I have returned to Dongzhou, I don't know how Su Xueyuan and Luo Qingcheng are doing. I think they may have formed a pill with their qualifications!"

Suddenly, the figures of two women appeared in Ye Chunyang's mind. One of them led him into the immortal way and indirectly changed his life, and the other had an indissoluble bond with him.

On the surface, the two women seemed to have nothing to do with him, but they were inextricably linked. It was hard to explain and the reason was unclear.

However, they were all the proud daughters of their respective sects. Now that they had been apart for decades, their cultivation should have improved greatly!

When he thought of this, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but feel the urgency to improve himself.

…

Three days later, Ye Chunyang came to the foot of the imperial city of Yuanzhou State. After a sweep of his spiritual sense, he found that although this was a mortal country, there were many cultivators coming and going, but most of them were below the foundation-building stage. They were probably disciples of sects who came to the mortal world for training.

Ye Chunyang ignored this and did not show off. He changed into a mortal outfit and entered the city in a low-key manner.

Since he was going to live in seclusion in the mortal world, Ye Chunyang naturally had to adapt to the life in the mortal world. Fortunately, he started to cultivate immortals from a mortal at the beginning. This time, he dispersed his magic power and restrained his breath. Even if a cultivator passed by, he would not notice him.

After walking around the city for several times, he finally bought a medicine shop in an inconspicuous area and settled down temporarily.

This was not to earn the silver that was useless to him, but to find a place to practice the alchemy. Therefore, this shop was selling medicinal herbs on the surface, but in fact, it was a cave to cultivate spiritual herbs and make alchemy.

After all, the cultivation of the law can't be wandering around, otherwise it would be troublesome to attract other cultivators.

Moreover, to practice this method, Ye Chunyang needs to reverse the meridians every day, which is a great burden even if the body is tough. Therefore, after each practice, he must take pills to regulate his breath, otherwise it will be dangerous to damage the meridians for a long time.

Therefore, with the heart of cultivation, Ye Chunyang simply bought this shop and named it "Chunyangju" and became a doctor in name.

With his alchemy skills, he is more than enough to be a mortal doctor. In this way, he can save the world and accumulate merits, which is also very beneficial to his state of mind. It stabilizes the heart of Taoism and increases the success rate of advancing to the alchemy.

So Ye Chunyang's life returned to normal. He opened a shop to practice medicine during the day, and meditated at night. Occasionally, he would take advantage of the recovery of his magic power at midnight to absorb the ancient treasures extorted from monks of various sects on Penglai Island.

Just like this, day after day, more than half a year passed in a blink of an eye. Before he knew it, "Chunyangju" had become famous in the imperial city of Yuanzhou State, just because there was a "Doctor Ye" in it who had the ability to bring people back to life. In the past six months, whether it was seeing a doctor or prescribing medicine for people, he was able to cure diseases with ease. Someone even witnessed a dying person being brought back to life by him. For a time, he was naturally highly respected.

Another night fell. After Ye Chunyang closed the door of the shop, he sat in the room and silently practiced the pill casting method to regulate his breathing. Drops of dense sweat appeared on his forehead, and his face turned pale.

At the same time, several blue veins on his arms were tangled and undulating, which was a sign of retrograde meridians. But Ye Chunyang seemed to be used to it, without showing any strange expression. He took a pill and swallowed it. After the drug power was dissolved in his body, he continued to practice with his eyes closed.

After following the method to travel through the meridians several times, Ye Chunyang's consciousness sank inward and observed his Dantian along the meridians in his body. In addition to the Qingtian Xuanhuo Sword, the natal sword essence, there was a little golden light emerging inside, and the Dantian, which was originally only the size of a fist, also grew slightly bigger.

"It seems that the effect of practicing in the past six months is still very significant."

Seeing the changes in the Dantian, Ye Chunyang was very satisfied, but according to the requirements of the Dan Casting Method, the Dantian must show the appearance of golden haze overflowing before the Dan can be formed, that is, the entire Dantian must be filled with golden haze. And now there is only this little bit, and it is still too early to complete it.

However, Ye Chunyang knows that haste makes waste and too much is as bad as too little, so he is not in a hurry and plans to continue to practice in seclusion in this mortal world for a while.

Moreover, through the experience of becoming a mortal for more than half a year, he saw many things that he had felt before, the birth, aging, illness, death, joy and sorrow, separation and reunion of mortals, and all the things that immortal cultivators were determined to abandon were all reflected in them. Once upon a time, he was just like them, living a mediocre life.

Witnessing these, Ye Chunyang had his own understanding of the state of mind, and his heart of seeking the Tao became more and more firm, knowing what he was pursuing all his life.

…

The whole night was spent in Ye Chunyang's understanding and cultivation. When he woke up the next day, he opened Chunyang Residence as usual. However, today he did not put out medicinal materials for sale, but hung a sign at the door for medical consultation and picked up the medicine box to go somewhere in the city.

Yesterday, a housekeeper came to the Ning Wang Mansion and said that someone in the mansion was seriously ill and asked him to come for medical consultation. Ye Chunyang did not refuse, so he went to visit as agreed today.
