Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 417: Chapter 26: Two Years!

However, this trace of Thunder Arc is still too weak and needs to be refined into a full eighty-one strands to meet the requirements of a single Thunder Seed.

So Zhou Xun continued his previous actions.

After half a month, Zhou Xun finally refined all eighty-one strands of Spiritual Thunder Arc.

Immediately after, Zhou Xun forced out nine drops of Essence Blood and, according to the Spell recorded in the ”Purple Sky Thunder Technique,” transformed it into a Blood Talisman, wrapping it around the eighty-one strands of Spiritual Thunder Arc.

It went smoothly, and the Thunder Arc was completely wrapped within.

At the same time, Zhou Xun changed the Spell in his hand, and several strands of Spirit Light struck the Blood Talisman.

The Blood Talisman slowly began to merge with the Thunder Arc.

After an unknown period of time, all the Thunder Arcs and Essence Blood merged into one, and the blood color gradually dissipated, turning into a thumb-sized round Thunder Seed.

Its surface flashed with strands of Thunder Arc.

Simultaneously, a connection came from the Thunder Seed, feeling like Zhou Xun’s limbs, responding to his thoughts with ease.

At this moment, the Thunder Seed was considered completed.

Next, Zhou Xun did not stop and continued to refine the next one.

More than two months passed, Zhou Xun slowly opened his eyes.

”Spending so much time, I finally completed refining five Thunder Seeds. Now my Thunder Seeds have finally returned to the number of thirty-six!”

For the upcoming nurturing, Zhou Xun had ”Thunder Element Essence” on hand, which could greatly reduce the time required.

With a pat on the Storage Bag at his waist, a delicate Jade Box appeared in his hand,

with a Tier Three Spirit-Sealing Talisman attached on top,

inside was the ”Thunder Element Essence” that Zhou Xun had spent four million Spirit Stones purchasing!

With a flick of his finger, he removed the Sealing Spirit Talisman, and the Jade Box automatically opened, instantly bursting forth with countless strands of purple light,

turning the entire Cultivation Room into a shade of purple,

even the air resonated with the sounds of Thunder Arc!

Looking inside the Jade Box, a small, finger-sized blue-purple crystal lay within.

Zhou Xun’s mouth slightly opened, and the Thunder Pool flew out, hovering above the Jade Box.

Then, forming a seal with his hands, a strand of Spirit Light struck the Thunder Element Essence.

The Thunder Element Essence instantly turned into a liquid pool, then merged into the Thunder Pool, beginning the tempering and nurturing process.

What followed would only be waiting.

...

During this period, Zhou Xun did not remain idle; he took out that Tier Three High-Grade Thunder Flood Dragon Core,

and then entered the Cultivation Room.

A day later, the door to the Cultivation Room opened once again, and Zhou Xun emerged, smiling, with an Elixir Bottle in his hand.

From this Thunder Flood Dragon Core, he refined six Thunder Element Pills, each containing abundant Thunder Attribute Spiritual Power.

These would save him a considerable amount of cultivation time.

After resting for a day, Zhou Xun once again entered the Cultivation Room.

He took out a Cushion, sitting cross-legged, with a Jade-made Elixir Bottle and dozens of Tier Two Spirit Medicines placed in front of him.

These Spirit Medicines were naturally to extract essence and purify the quality of the Thunder Element Pills.

Removing the bottle seal, he poured out a Thunder Element Pill and placed it in his palm,

”Crackle!”

Strands of Thunder Arc flickered on the surface of the Pill.

With a slight movement of Zhou Xun’s finger, a Spirit Grass automatically flew up, landing in front of Zhou Xun.

In his heart, he activated the Spell from the ”Spring Condensation Scripture.”

As the mantra circulated, a mysterious feeling arose, and Zhou Xun’s mind was immersed in the State of No Self, merging with the universe and feeling as if he could control everything.

With a light touch of his finger on the Spirit Gathering Grass, the surrounding Primordial Qi was attracted, gathering around.

As the last mantra circulated, an invisible force emerged out of nowhere, enveloping the Spirit Gathering Grass.

Time ticked away, and the glow from the Spirit Grass grew more intense as its essence condensed.

Suddenly, a green light dot appeared atop the Spirit Gathering Grass, emitting a gentle glow.

Controlling this green light dot, it moved toward the Thunder Element Pill in his palm.

In an instant, the light dot merged into it.

Before long, the Thunder Element Pill became even more brilliant, surrounded by flowing Spirit Charm.

Zhou Xun continued to infuse Spirit Medicine Essence, merging three more doses, elevating it to a Super-Grade level,

and he performed the same operation on the next five Thunder Element Pills, turning them all into Super-Grade Elixirs.

”With these six Super-Grade Thunder Element Pills, I should soon reach the peak of Early-Stage Core Formation!”

...

After a night’s rest,

the next day, Zhou Xun arrived at the Cultivation Room early.

With a pat on the Storage Bag, the Elixir Bottle appeared in his hand.

He gently removed the bottle seal, and a cloud of pure Thunder Spirit Qi dispersed, accompanied by strands of Thunder Arc, filling the entire Cultivation Room.

He poured a pellet into his palm and then placed it in his mouth, letting it slowly enter his stomach.

As the Thunder Element Pill entered his stomach, an extremely pure Thunder Spirit Power surged.

Zhou Xun immediately activated the Spell from the ”Purple Sky Thunder Technique.”

Strands of Thunder Spirit Qi flowed through his meridians, circulating through a Grand Circulation according to the Purple Sky Thunder Technique, then transformed into Purple Sky Magical Power, merging into the Core in his Dantian,

making it full.

In this way, Zhou Xun’s cultivation was rapidly enhanced.

...

Time flies, and two years passed.

In this year, Zhou Xun was eighty-eight years old.

After two years of nurturing, Zhou Xun’s Thunder Seeds were finally fully nurtured.

Opening his mouth, thirty-six Thunder Seeds flew out, arraying in mid-air, shining with divine light.

”Now, my Thunder Seeds have finally been restored, and the Purple Sky True Thunder Array can reappear in the world!”

”More importantly, refined by the Thunder Element Essence, the Thunder Pool has been elevated to the Middle-Grade Magical Treasure, plus the previously infused Power of Tribulation Thunder!”

”My current strength, at the Core Formation Stage, is among the top ranks!”

Yet Zhou Xun dared not be complacent.

After all, the Central Continent here is capable of condensing the Immortal Golden Core.

If encountering a Nascent Soul Seed from the core sect of the Three Great Influences, Zhou Xun might not necessarily be able to match.

”The second achievement is my Cultivation!”

By now, Zhou Xun had fully refined those six Thunder Element Pills, and his Cultivation had astonishingly reached the peak of Early-Stage Core Formation!

”Just an opportunity, and I can step into Middle-Stage Core Formation!”

This was today’s progress in the Central Continent.

Meanwhile, in the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, at Wangchuan Lake.

Because Zhou Xun’s main body Cultivation reached the Foundation Establishment Peak, it had temporarily stagnated, resulting in plenty of free time.

During this period, Zhou Xun invested a lot of effort into the Path of Array, and he could now successfully set up a Tier Three Low-Grade Array.

This meant that Zhou Xun was now a Tier Three Low-Grade Array Master.

Beyond that, his Path of Puppetry had also made significant progress, and he could now stably refine Tier Two Top-Grade Puppets.

In the Central Continent Cultivation Realm, Zhou Xun’s avatar patted the Storage Bag at his waist,

a small sword of complete azure color appeared in Zhou Xun’s hand, with the words ’Profound Thunder’ engraved on it, and with a gentle flick, a Thunder Arc was drawn in the air.

It was seized from Elder Zhao back then.

Zhou Xun flipped his hand, and a soybean-sized piece of Thunder Element Essence appeared in his hand.

This was the remainder after enhancing the Thunder Pool, and Zhou Xun intended to use it on this ”Profound Thunder.”

This treasure, after years of nurturing by Elder Zhao, was quite powerful, though the materials were somewhat ordinary, for it remained trapped in the Low-Grade Magical Treasure rank.

If it could be elevated to Middle-Grade, it would certainly provide a significant boost to Zhou Xun.
