Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 140 Azure Spirit Sword Formation, Foundation Establishment Illusion

Ronan does not have a formula for intermediate-level transformation potions.

He deduced the formula by working backwards from the intermediate-level transformation potion he obtained from others.

He proposed hundreds of possible formulas.

I tried it on and off, and now there are probably only about fifty left.

'Keep trying.'

With these thoughts in mind, Ronan continued collecting medicinal herbs.

……

Before we knew it, a month had passed.

Ronan finished preparing another potion.

"I wonder if it was successful?"

Ronan looked at the deep purple liquid in the crucible.

With a sudden thought, he summoned the Primordial Chaos.

Instantly, a fine blue light pattern appeared on the surface of the medicine in his eyes.

"It should be a success!"

Ronan's eyes lit up.

The data fed back from Hongmeng showed that the ingredients of this potion were the same as those of the intermediate-level transformation potion he had obtained from others.

Ronan had Hongmeng analyze the potion again, and after confirming that there were no harmful substances in the potion, he picked up the crucible and took a sip.

The medicine was sweet and sour, like fruit juice.

As soon as the medicine went down his stomach, Ronan immediately felt a tingling sensation emanating from all the muscles and bones in his body.

This was Ronan's physical reaction after drinking the initial transformation potion.

At this point, he can change his appearance simply by using his mental powers.

So Ronan began to extend his mental energy to muscles, bones, and other parts of his body.

Soon, his height increased by two centimeters.

Originally, his body had become strong due to practicing the "Green Lotus and White Root Technique," but due to muscle compression, it became somewhat slender.

Her hair had grown longer, and her hairline was higher than before.

After changing his features for a while, Ronan went to the bedroom, picked up a mirror, and began to change his facial features as he looked at himself.

After a while, his features became unremarkable, neither handsome nor ugly.

After a while, once the effects of the intermediate-level transformation potion wore off, Ronan's muscles and bones were completely immobilized.

'I wonder how long these muscles and bones can last?'

Ronan discovered that the transformation potion, when ingested, adjusts the state of a person's muscles, bones, and other structures to a state that can be regulated by mental effort.

Once the effects of the medicine wear off, the mind can no longer regulate the muscles and bones.

The subsequent restoration of appearance is actually the self-repair of a person's muscles, bones, and so on.

The stronger the medicine, the more thoroughly the muscles and bones will adjust after a period of time, and the slower the recovery will be.

Ronan planned to stay in the Wizarding World for a while to test how long the transformation effect from the intermediate-level shapeshifting potion would last.

Next, he continued to use the prepared medicinal herbs to refine a mid-level transformation potion.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

While Ronan was practicing the "Green Wood Sword Technique," he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his muscles and bones.

Then her appearance gradually returned to normal.

"It can last for two days."

However, this was only the first time he had refined a mid-level transformation potion, and his proficiency was still not high.

If you are more skilled, you can maintain the position for a longer period of time.

"The increased potency of the transformation agent not only extends the duration of the transformation but also increases the breadth of the transformation."

After refining the initial transformation potion to perfection, he could achieve the greatest possible transformation on the human body—from male to female, which can be described as gender reassignment.

He speculated that if his proficiency with intermediate-level transformation potions improved, he might be able to achieve cross-species transformation.

Perhaps, with the transformation potion, he could achieve Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations.

After preparing the intermediate-level transformation potion, Ronan pondered in his heart.

In the True Immortal Realm of the True Immortal Sect, reaching the Foundation Establishment stage is considered entering a new world.

He needs to improve his strength again before going in.

His Green Wood Sword Technique has a total of twelve levels.

He has only reached the ninth level of cultivation so far.

If one cultivates to the twelfth level, one can comprehend the sword technique "Twelve Azure Spirit Sword Formation".

At that time, the twelve Azure Spirit Swords will work together to unleash tremendous power and can be used as a trump card.

……

Time flies, and two months have passed.

Ronan sat cross-legged beneath his natal tree of immortality.

Golden light emanated from the trees, illuminating the entire botanical garden.

Ronan was breathing and exhaling according to the meridian routes recorded in the "Green Wood Sword Manual".

With each breath he took, the Wood Qi and Metal Qi of heaven and earth converged toward him.

Green Wood Sword Technique (Level 11, 99%+)
After two months of training, the Green Wood Sword Technique is about to break through to the twelfth level!

Ronan remained calm and continued his breathing exercises.

Suddenly, his body trembled slightly.

A sharp aura suddenly erupted from him.

'Breakthrough!'

Green Wood Sword Technique (12th level, 1%)

'Next, we need to prepare twelve Azure Spirit Swords.'

Now, he only has two Azure Spirit Swords.

However, he had planted about thirty saplings of Green Spirit Bamboo in his cellar.

About ten of them, under his encouragement, are over a thousand years old.

With that thought in mind, Ronan went down into the cellar.

He also expanded the space of the cellar.

The originally cramped cellar is now about ten square meters.

One by one, the verdant bamboo grows among them.

After selecting ten emerald green bamboo stalks, Ronan left the cellar.

He used the "Treasure Refining Technique" to begin refining the Azure Spirit Sword.

……

Six days later, he finally refined all ten Azure Cloud Bamboos into Azure Spirit Swords and stored them in his dantian.

Currently, among his twelve Azure Spirit Swords, the Azure Spirit Green Cloud Bamboo Sword is the oldest, dating back three thousand years.

The Azure Spirit Sword, infused with mithril, is only two thousand years old.

So Ronan used the "Treasure Refining Technique" again.

Mithril was separated from the two-thousand-year-old Azure Spirit Sword and incorporated into the Azure Spirit Sword, which was forged from three-thousand-year-old Azure Spirit Green Cloud Bamboo.

In addition, he had carved sharp magic runes, armor-piercing magic runes, and spell-breaking magic runes on all twelve Azure Spirit Swords, making them even more powerful.

Having forged the sword, Ronan had a sudden inspiration and traveled back to the world of cultivation.

In a forest in the mortal world, try the "Twelve Azure Spirit Sword Formation".

He made a sword gesture and pointed it into the air.

The twelve Azure Spirit Swords transformed into twelve beams of sword light, flying out in a continuous stream.

With the power of the sword formation, these twelve Azure Spirit Swords are interconnected, forming a massive combined force.

Ronan, using his sword incantation and focusing his mind, continuously manipulated the twelve Azure Spirit Swords, familiarizing himself with the sword formation.

Once the sword formation is complete, a surge of powerful sword intent will erupt from it with the slightest thought.

The nearby trees, touched by the sword intent, immediately burst into splinters and snapped in two.

After practicing for a while, Ronan felt that he was quite familiar with the use of this sword formation.

So he waved his hand, and all twelve Azure Spirit Swords disappeared into his wrists, entered his meridians, and returned to his dantian.

Next, he would go to the True Realm Sect's Immortal Realm to plan his entry into the True Realm Sect. "To enter the True Realm Sect, the first thing I need to do is to spread the news of my Foundation Establishment to the True Realm Sect."

Ronan thought to himself.

He had considered visiting the mountain gate directly as a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

However, doing so seemed too deliberate, as if he were eager to join the True Sect.

Firstly, this would arouse the suspicion of Emperor Zhenzong.

They feared he might be a spy for the demonic path, or that he had joined the True Revelation Sect for ulterior motives, thus harming the True Revelation Sect.

Secondly, since he came to the temple himself, Zhen Huanzong might look down on him.

As a result, they are very likely to not receive good treatment.

It would be best to have someone from the Zhenhuan Sect come to find him.

After thinking for a while, Ronan had an idea.

That is, to pretend to be building a foundation within the True Immortal Realm of the Realm of the True Immortal Sect.

When someone is establishing their foundation, a vortex of spiritual energy is formed, which alerts nearby cultivators that someone is establishing their foundation nearby.

With his current mental strength and cultivation, creating a vortex of spiritual energy is not difficult for him.

As long as he creates a spiritual energy vortex in the mansion area that is comparable to the one he was at when he was at the Foundation Establishment stage.

It is believed that before long, news of his Foundation Establishment will spread throughout the mansion district, and may even reach the True Realm Sect.

After all, Foundation Establishment True Persons are a rare breed even in the prestigious True Man Sect.

With this in mind, Ronan drank the intermediate-level transformation potion.

After transforming into an ordinary-looking man in his thirties, he headed towards the Immortal Realm of the True Realm Sect.

After entering the Immortal Realm, he headed towards the mansion area.

In the eastern part of the mansion, I found an inn and booked a superior room.

At night, he would sit cross-legged on the bed, absorbing the spiritual energy of the surrounding world.

Gradually, a vortex of spiritual energy, comparable to the one he had created when he established his foundation, began to form around him.

The spiritual energy concentration in the manor area is far less than in the wizarding world.

The moment the vortex formed, it immediately attracted the attention of cultivators within a hundred miles.

These cultivators, who were also meditating, could feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around them converging in one direction.

……

In one of the Song family mansions, Song Baixiao, who was meditating in a quiet room, suddenly opened his eyes.

A piercing, divine light flashed in his pupils.

In the dark room, it seemed as if lightning flashed.

Although his training place was not near Ronan.

However, Foundation Establishment cultivators have an extremely keen perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

He could faintly sense that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth nearby was slowly flowing in one direction.

"Someone has achieved Foundation Establishment!"

"But I wonder which family they belong to?"

Song Baixiao's mind raced, and a sense of crisis arose.

The Yu family's Foundation Establishment cultivator died in a battle where the Nascent Soul ancestor of the Longevity Sect faked his death. Only then did he become the number one Foundation Establishment cultivator in the eastern district of the mansion, thus making the Song family the number one cultivation family in the eastern district of the mansion.

Thus, they gained control of most of the cultivation resources in the eastern part of the mansion.

Now, new cultivators are establishing their foundations.

He didn't know the extent of this cultivator's talent, and he feared that if this cultivator were to surpass him in cultivation over several decades or even centuries, everything the Song family possessed today would be taken away.

Moreover, the Song family lost more than just cultivation resources.

To avoid future retaliation from their descendants who might try to seize their possessions, the cultivators would likely try to exterminate them.

Just like how they treated the Yu family.

With a solemn expression, Song Baixiao waved his hand, and the stone door of the secluded cultivation room burst open.

With another flick of his sleeve, he transformed into a white blur and flew outwards.

At the same time, he released his divine sense to perceive the direction where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was converging.

And it flew in that direction.

Before long, Song Baixiao learned where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was gathered.

It turned out to be an inn.

It's still the Song family's property.

From this, he realized that the person who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage was not from any particular family, but rather a rogue cultivator.

"If a rogue cultivator has reached the Foundation Establishment stage, it means that this rogue cultivator has good talent or has had a fortuitous encounter!"

Song Baixiao stopped abruptly in mid-air, his white robe, white beard, white hair, and white eyebrows fluttering in the wind.

He pondered this further.

After learning that the newly established Foundation Establishment cultivator was a rogue cultivator, he had two choices.

One option is to recruit this rogue cultivator into the Song family.

However, this rogue cultivator might not be willing to join the Song family, and might even join another family.

This could very well pose a threat to the Song family.

Therefore, another option emerged.

That means killing this rogue cultivator before he completes his Foundation Establishment.

After thinking for a while, Song Baixiao chose the latter.

After all, the Song family is now the number one family in the residential area, and as long as nothing changes, they will continue to hold this position.

After he was promoted to the Foundation Establishment stage, he still had a lifespan of nearly three hundred years.

Currently, there are several promising young talents in the family.

He believed that with the family's resources, the family could cultivate another Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Therefore, their family does not need to win over Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Moreover, after winning over those who have established their foundations, a portion of their resources must be allocated.

He didn't want to allocate his resources to another Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Since their family doesn't want to win over Foundation Establishment cultivators, then naturally they can't let other families win over Foundation Establishment cultivators either.

Upon realizing this, a fierce glint flashed in Song Baixiao's eyes.

A thought struck him, and a brass mirror with a vermilion bird soaring through the clouds carved on the back appeared beside him.

This is his quasi-magical weapon, the Vermilion Bird Mirror.

When Ronan summoned the "High-Rank Undead Swordsman" to block Song Baixiao, the Vermilion Bird Mirror displayed its divine power.

Suddenly, a crimson flame shot out from the Vermilion Bird Mirror and crashed into the room where Ronan was.

The cultivators within a radius of 100 meters all felt the surrounding temperature suddenly rise.

While Ronan was in the room, pretending to be establishing his foundation, he released his divine sense to observe everything around him.

When he sensed Song Baixiao approaching with his divine sense, he began to wonder what the old man was up to.

Just as he was thinking this, he sensed that the old man suddenly summoned a magical artifact and struck down a flame.

Ronan immediately summoned three Azure Spirit Swords, which circled around him to form a protective sword shield.

The flames crashed through the roof and came crashing down, but were blocked by the protective sword and shield.

Ronan remained seated cross-legged on the bed, raising his head to see Song Baixiao, who was seemingly standing in the sky, through the still-burning hole in the roof.

He summoned the Primordial Chaos, and a dense net of blue light patterns flashed across Song Baixiao's body.

The stats of this Foundation Establishment cultivator were immediately transmitted into his mind.

Since he cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage, he has been a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator as well.

The old man's stats are no longer as good as his.

"Why not let this old man help me become famous!"

Ronan thought to himself and immediately pointed.

The three Azure Spirit Swords immediately flew into the sky and stabbed towards Song Baixiao.

At this moment, Song Baixiao activated the Vermilion Bird Mirror, and another blazing flame shot down.

Ronan's three Azure Spirit Swords exuded a powerful sword aura, further enhanced by the magic-breaking runes.

Three Azure Spirit Swords, lined up vertically, parted the descending flames to both sides and continued to pierce towards Song Baixiao!
