Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1257: Chapter 428: Finally Achieved Purple Pill, Purple Gold Gourd Opens! [Seeking Monthly Pass]

Don’t let the quality of the Golden Core improve, but still fail to form a Nascent Soul, or it would be a big joke.

”Based on existing experience, the better the quality of the Golden Core, the easier it is to condense the Nascent Soul, because as the quality of the Golden Core improves, it gets closer to the Nascent Soul Realm itself.”

Fairy Baihua slowly revealed the answer.

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan’s originally tense mind immediately calmed down.

As long as higher quality Golden Cores don’t make forming a Nascent Soul more difficult, otherwise, Ji Yuan wouldn’t even dare to continue consuming the Four-colored Spirit Eggs.

Until he knew the answer, he had been anxious, hesitant, and troubled, but now that he knew the result, Ji Yuan quickly understood.

If forming a Nascent Soul is considered 100 points, then a high-quality Golden Core might already be at 80 or 90 points during Nascent Soul formation. With this score, wanting to improve to 100 points becomes much simpler.

But if the Golden Core is of poor quality, when breaking the pill, they might only be at 40 or 50 points.

Wanting to form a Nascent Soul, the difficulty naturally increases several times.

’From this point of view, it’s very necessary to improve the Golden Core quality to the Purple Core Realm.’

Ji Yuan secretly made up his mind, and after returning, he planned to eat eggs, several in a row.

”However, being able to advance to the peak of Core Formation at your age and having such strength, your Golden Core quality can’t be too bad, so don’t worry too much.”

”Thank you, Supreme Elder, for your comfort.”

Ji Yuan naturally returned the courtesy for Fairy Baihua’s consolation.

”Alright, we’re all on the same side, no need for much courtesy. Next, I will tell you about some tips for breaking the pill. Listen carefully, and you can ask if you don’t understand...”

While speaking, Fairy Baihua raised her hand to open a restriction, isolating the Ancestral Hall of the Cloud Rain Sect.

...

A day later.

Ji Yuan returned to his Cave Mansion at Brewing Peak and breathed a long sigh of relief.

”I originally thought that breaking the pill was simply about smashing the Golden Core, but there are so many tips involved.” Ji Yuan recalled the contents Fairy Baihua had told him, feeling more and more that the Cloud Rain Sect was indeed the right place.

Among the three sects Ji Yuan had been part of.

The Cloud Rain Sect fits best with the Immortal Sect he imagined.

As he thought, Ji Yuan extended his hand forward, where two items appeared before him.

To the left was a lotus seed, and to the right a small blood-red sword.

The small sword was naturally the Divine Blood Sword obtained recently.

While the lotus seed was acquired earlier when Nightmare True Monarch led Ji Yuan to obtain the Void Holy Heart Lotus in the Rashamon Sea, just this one lotus seed could increase the chance of overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation by thirty percent!

Although Ji Yuan did not know the effect of the Divine Blood Sword, it likely wasn’t as good as the Void Holy Heart Lotus.

These two items were Ji Yuan’s preparations for the Heart Demon Tribulation.

Aside from that, Fairy Baihua had just mentioned she had a treasure to lend to Ji Yuan... When she left, Ji Yuan asked what that treasure was but unexpectedly, Fairy Baihua blushed instead of answering.

This made Ji Yuan even more curious.

He could only think about seeking out the treasure Fairy Baihua mentioned when officially preparing for closed-door cultivation.

”For Nascent Soul formation, I still have two Nascent Soul Fruits that can be used; to get the next one...it would be over fifty years later.”

Ji Yuan decided not to wait any longer.

He planned to start closed-door cultivation and strive for a breakthrough once the Five Elements Purifying Spirit Skill reached completion.

Waiting another fifty years...the world was becoming increasingly chaotic, and Ji Yuan couldn’t afford to wait.

No one knows whether tomorrow or accidents will come first.

Instead of waiting, it’s better to gamble with what has been prepared for this breakthrough. In fact, upon reflection, the amount of preparation doesn’t count as a gamble.

At least Ji Yuan felt that the probability of this breakthrough...

Though not an exaggerated ninety-eight percent, eighty-eight percent should be manageable.

With the plan set, Ji Yuan raised his hand to put away the two treasures and turned towards the Scripture Pavilion.

He also bestowed the spirit effect of the Enlightenment Room here.

During the following period, the tasks Ji Yuan needed to accomplish were very simple.

First was cultivating the Five Elements Purifying Spirit Skill, striving to bring it to completion as soon as possible.

In terms of timing, with the spirit effects of the Enlightenment Room and Scripture Pavilion.

Two to three years should suffice.

The other task was continuing to consume Four-colored Spirit Eggs. Having already experienced the benefits of the Blood Pill, combined with what he learned from Fairy Baihua about higher Golden Core quality aiding Nascent Soul formation.

Ji Yuan paid more attention to this.

Meanwhile, within the Cloud Rain Sect, upon being informed of Ji Yuan’s breakthrough to the peak of Core Formation, You Zai Daoist had already received Fairy Baihua’s transmission.

Sect affairs would no longer be entrusted to Ji Yuan; he would enjoy the same treatment as Cyan Furnace Zhenren.

Their only task was to focus on closed-door cultivation.

Solely seek Nascent Soul formation.

Subsequently, for the next two or three years, Ji Yuan ignored everything else.

Entirely focusing on cultivation, he eventually reached completion of the Five Elements Purifying Spirit Skill a flat, indifferent afternoon two and a half years later.

Ji Yuan hurriedly performed internal visualization of his Dantian. In the midst of complex and obscure mana, his four Spirit Roots were emitting a faint glow.

Unlike before, when Ji Yuan looked at his Spirit Roots... although he felt they were glowing, the glow appeared somewhat dim.

Yet now the feeling was entirely different.

The glow still wasn’t bright but felt very gentle and pure to Ji Yuan.

As if many impurities masking the light had been removed.

”Huh—”

After perceiving changes in his Spirit Roots, Ji Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief. After so much cultivation, the Five Elements Purifying Spirit Skill was finally complete, making the next step to further purify his Blood Pill.

He could simultaneously continue to comprehend the Sword Manual, allowing his cultivation realm to reach a more harmonious state.

Therefore, this time, Ji Yuan didn’t even come out from his closed-door cultivation, choosing to cultivate and eat eggs directly within the Cave Mansion.

Thus, another three years passed.

Ji Yuan finally sensed that his Blood Pill within the Dantian seemed sufficient.

Because judging only by appearance, it was wholly a Purple Pill.

Purple rounded, purple light lingering.

But subtly, Ji Yuan felt something was slightly missing.

”Well, wait until the next Four-colored Spirit Egg is produced, then consume it and test.”

For Ji Yuan, this was a forced choice.

This Chicken Cage only produced one Four-colored Spirit Egg per month, and previous stock was already consumed, so he could only wait.

Ten days later.

After consuming another Four-colored Spirit Egg, his Purple Pill within the Dantian finally showed a significant change.

Like shedding an outer shell, a layer of impurities was visibly squeezed out from the Purple Pill surface, then immediately dissolved and refined by his mana.

Already in purple, the Purple Pill radiated brilliantly.

But before Ji Yuan could rejoice, he sharply noticed... a subtle change within his Dantian.

For instance, the Purple Gold Gourd, which had shown no response, opened its lid.

Then, unexpectedly, a lazy woman’s voice emanated from it.

”So, there are still people in this mortal world who can improve the quality of a Golden Core to the Purple Core Realm... However, I’m a bit curious, where do these endless Four-colored Spirit Eggs come from?”
