Chapter 263: Hong Xiu’s gift (1)
Chapter 261
For cultivators in the Golden core realm, the first heaven was equivalent to one layer of heavenly armor. The difference between the early and middle stages could not be made up for even with magic treasures.
This was because an early Aurous core stage cultivator could unleash the power of a low grade magical treasure. If he used a middle grade magical treasure, he would have the power of one person, but after the attack, the mana of the Aurous core stage would be consumed too much, which was not worth it.
It was different for cultivators with special physiques. The reason why a Foundation establishment cultivator could defeat a golden core cultivator was because of his vigorous spiritual energy. It could support the consumption of the magic treasure and also had other wonderful effects. It could recover the consumption without damaging the foundation.
This special physique was not only useful in combat, but also in cultivation. Simply put, it was more likely for cultivators with spiritual roots to advance to true Lord or true venerate.
This was why the allheaven immortal sect placed so much importance on The Prodigy tournament and would focus on nurturing its prodigies. Even if the prodigies were Foundation establishment cultivators, they could be directly listed as inner sect disciples and enjoy all kinds of benefits.
It was just that the number of heaven’s favorites was very small and could only be encountered but not sought. Naturally, they could break the norm. However, in the allheaven immortal sect, most of them had ordinary spiritual roots. The outer sect competition was the normal way to enter.
If one wanted to be directly promoted to the inner sect, one had to be like Zeng wangbei, becoming a nominal disciple of a soul formation true venerate. In the future, one only needed to accumulate some merits and break through to the intermediate stage of the Golden core realm.
On the surface, he was a true Lord successor, but it was because he thought that he would become a true Lord in the future and enjoy the benefits of being an inner disciple in advance. In fact, he had become an inner disciple in the face of a true venerate elder.
Otherwise, if he had to wait for a breakthrough in his cultivation and become a true Lord before he could become an inner sect disciple, he would have to wait for a long time. It was also because of this that the outer sect competition was so important.
After entering the inner sect, there were no such competitions. Most of the time, they were sent out to guard a place, accept missions, or join a Hall, Hall, or Pavilion to contribute to the sect.
Only after entering the inner sect could one be considered a true disciple of the allheaven immortal gate. Their names would be recorded in the book and they could also receive a fixed immortal salary. Although it was not much, it still represented their status.
Hong Xiu was a quick-witted person. She was valued by Chen jingzhai and made the head butler, so she was naturally outstanding. After Zeng wangbei came out of the secret realm, she had sent a message to Xi Meng to prepare a gift.
Later, it was said that Zeng wangbei, a soul formation elder, had taken him in as a disciple. Hong Xiu even went to Mingyue city personally and prepared a valuable gift. At the same time, she also selected a few gifts for Lu Tao and the others.
They had all come to the Moonview restaurant to show their faces. Hong Xiu had remembered it at that time. This outer sect competition was related to their future. No matter what the ranking was, it was still a happy event. Naturally, she had to show her support for Chen jingzhai.
Not to mention that Chen jingzhai was in seclusion and it was not convenient for him to move around, even with his status as half a true disciple and the identity of the hidden faction’s youngest uncle-master, it was not convenient for him to personally congratulate her. Hong Xiu was confident that she would have no problem doing so.
In fact, this was the case. Everyone was surprised and surprised that Hong Xiu had come to congratulate them in person. Not only did they receive gifts, but they would also come to the moon Pavilion often for small gatherings and even share some news.
In fact, Zeng wangbei was naturally close to him. After all, he was from the peak of the fallen. If he broke through to the perfected Lord realm in the future and returned to the luosheng sword sect, he could also be an elder. After a hundred years, he could still return to receive merits.
He admired Chen jingzhai a lot, and he was also Peak Master Yang’s disciple. With his relationship with Madam yang, unless Chen jingzhai fell out with him, there wouldn’t be any hostility between them. They would only get closer.
On the other hand, perfected Lu Tao and Ji Shuanghua were Chen jingzhai’s comrades. They were not valued by the demigod elders, and they had just arrived. Although they had some hidden connections, they could not compare to Chen jingzhai.
It was normal for them to have the intention to get close to each other. It was exactly what they wanted when the chief butler, Hong Xiu, came out personally. Perhaps the person they disliked the most was Jiang liuyun! This person was ambitious, but he didn’t want to see Chen jingzhai’s rise in power. However, even if he wanted to stop him, he didn’t dare to act.
The title of the number one heaven’s pride was still very important, not to mention that li Yueli, Zhao Hao, Chen Lei, and other heaven’s pride experts would occasionally appear in the full moon restaurant. Chen jingzhai was also Fu Yunzi’s junior Brother.
Under the layers of connections, Chen jingzhai was a disciple with a deep background and a bright future. He had won the title of the number one prodigy for the ninth Meridian and attracted the attention of many cultivators of the ninth Meridian.
Jiang liuyun had lost his usual enthusiasm for Chen jingzhai. When Hong Xiu left, he deliberately distanced himself from her, afraid that Chen jingzhai would block his way when he joined the iron sword Pavilion.
It was reasonable to say that as the Big Brother of the line of point star, he should have an extraordinary character and the attitude of a sword cultivator. He should not have such thoughts. However, he was going against advisor Biao and wanted to obtain more resources to win the favor of the line of iron sword. It was inevitable that there was a gap in his heart. Now that he was trapped in it, he did not know it.
Naturally, Chen jingzhai did not know about the changes outside. After the fifth Nirvana, he focused on his cultivation. Unknowingly, it was the eleventh year and he was welcoming his sixth Nirvana.
The Nirvana this time was extremely smooth. The bright aperture and the hidden aperture resonated with each other. After many Nirvana spiritual spirits and seal characters merged, they smoothly merged with the aperture acupoints in the resonance.
The Nirvana fire was no longer turbulent. Instead, it was emitted from his acupuncture points in an extremely docile manner. It began to burn his meridians in an extremely orderly manner. It penetrated through his flesh and blood and entered the bone skeleton, gradually attaching to it.
The fire of Nirvana seeped through the cracks of the bones and actually burned the spinal marrow. It caused the five bamboo sword to fly out. Three robes, the Hongtian mirror, and the nine Heavens chessboard also flew out of his body.
They didn’t have the flying Yuan either. They just circled around Chen jingzhai’s body and secretly breathed in and out the rich vital Qi. The Grand heavenly mirror, in particular, even had thunder fire spirit crows flying out and opening their mouths to suck in the vital Qi.
There was even a trace of Nirvana fire that was absorbed into the Thunderfire spirit crow’s mouth from the surface of Chen jingzhai’s body, causing its appearance to change. Even the burning flames began to distort.
Chen jingzhai knew this like the back of his hand, but he did not stop it. After the Thunderfire spirit Crow absorbed the Nirvana fire, its connection with him became even closer. Although it was not a Natal spiritual treasure, it was extremely compatible.
He had always liked the Grand heavenly mirror and was naturally willing to give it some good fortune. His own Nirvana flames were extremely powerful and the loss of a wisp was nothing. He even took the initiative to let the other magic treasures absorb it.
Unfortunately, it didn’t have enough spirituality. Even the five bamboo swords didn’t succeed in swallowing it. He could only quietly control the magic treasures and have them close to the air above him, letting the Nirvana fire roast them.
Very quickly, Chen jingzhai could not care about this anymore. The sixth round of Nirvana had been completed, and the effect was starting to show. The innate Qi kept falling from the divine stone. He focused his mind and calmed his Qi before starting to cultivate.
All the hair on his body fell off for the sixth time. Dead skin and dirty black gas seeped out of his mouth and nose for the sixth time. Soon, they were all burned away.
New hair grew out, and his skin became extremely tight and fair. The lines of his muscles also slowly became prominent, especially the lines on his palms and feet. They began to disappear.
The immortal bone that had been burned by the fire of Nirvana for the sixth time was already glowing. In the depths of the light, there were unknown bone patterns that even Chen jingzhai did not notice.
By the time the fire of Nirvana had completely burned out the sixth time, Chen jingzhai’s impervious Dao body had reached the initial success stage. Under the burning of the fire of Nirvana and the cleansing of the innate Qi, his skin, flesh, acupuncture points, meridians, internal organs, bones, and blood marrow had gradually changed. His body was no longer an ordinary body.
He did not need to deliberately cultivate, and the Qi of heaven and earth would automatically enter his body. More importantly, Chen jingzhai instinctively felt that the barrier between his body and heaven and earth had decreased.
This world seemed even more real to him, and even his spiritual will had increased by more than three times.
