The Wandering Immortal

Chapter 46 Unstoppable
After a month of seclusion, Jiang Yuan opened the Yang Water Meridian, which is the Ren Water of the Foot Taiyang Bladder Meridian, and opened the Qi Hai Yu point in the lower back.

Its supernatural power is comparable to the Wood-type Spirit Gathering Acupoint, capable of accumulating a large amount of true energy, far better than that "deep well lunatic". Jiang Yuan immediately felt a sense of triumph, as if the heavens had opened their eyes.

Jiang Yuan naturally followed the momentum and attacked the acupoints of the Ren and Du meridians. The Qi Hai Yu point was not far from the Yang Guan point of the Du meridian. If he could break through the Yang Guan point, the innate essence would be too strong.

Unexpectedly, things didn't go as planned. After trying to stimulate the Yangguan acupoint on the Du meridian for seven or eight days without any progress, the Shenque acupoint on the Ren meridian, commonly known as the navel, was opened unexpectedly.

If a woman's dantian (a point on the face) is opened, she will naturally receive divine assistance; as for men, they tend to be more effeminate.

Jiang Yuan could only console himself that it was, after all, the Divine Gate, a true innate gate. Every human being in the womb relies on the umbilical cord to absorb nutrients from the mother.

As soon as Jiang Yuan left the pass, Qinghe felt that her husband's face was delicate, like that of a baby. Could it really be the miraculous effect of the Earth Core Milk?

Old Lu also noticed that Guan Xiaozi had a face as beautiful as a peach blossom, almost as beautiful as his apprentice Qinghe.

"It seems your internal injuries are almost healed!"

Jiang Yuan smiled, "It is indeed better. I also see that Master Lu looks much better, his cultivation must have improved!"

Old Lu sighed again, "Do you know why I insist on Qinghe joining the inner sect of Luofu Mountain? I know very well that all the outer sect techniques are inferior. Only by entering the inner sect and obtaining the orthodox Xuanmen techniques can Qinghe's talent not be buried."

It turns out that Lao Lu was stuck on the cultivation technique, which is easy to understand.

"The lad has indeed encountered some fortuitous events, including a genuine Xuanmen cultivation technique. Master Lu may be able to gain some insights from it."

"Oh? Which Taoist sect's technique is this?"

"I don't know either. It is a follow-up cultivation method of the 'Yi Mu Jing' that Qinghe cultivated. Perhaps it can be cultivated to the point of condensing the Nascent Soul."

Not only was Lao Lu dumbfounded, but Jingxuan was also shocked, never expecting that there would be a sequel to the "Yi Mu Jing".

Jiang Yuan had prepared a jade slip beforehand, and naturally removed the annotations written for Qinghe.

After Lao Lu infused his divine sense, the white-bearded man flew up again. "All Things Grow," interesting.

"Could it be that Qinghe also used this technique to build her foundation?"

Qinghe replied, "This disciple should not have deceived Master, but I dared not reveal that my husband had received a fortuitous opportunity while I was on Mount Luofu!"

"It's alright, it's alright," Old Lu said, still immersed in the jade slip's cultivation method. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. "I am your master, but I have never given you any guidance in cultivation. Guan is your real master."

In Lao Lu's mind, this Guan family boy must have inherited the complete mantle of some ancient cultivator.

"Young Guan, with this skill, you really can start your own school."

Jiang Yuan laughed and said, "I've only reached the fifth level of Qi Refining. Why don't you, Master Lu, form the Golden Core and use this technique to establish your own sect?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to cross that insurmountable barrier."

Although Lao Lu said that, he quickly took "All Things Grow" to Lingquan.

Jiang Yuan secretly pondered, "With Lao Lu's ambition, he might really be able to bring a dead tree back to life."

After Jingxuan broke through to the Innate Essence level by cultivating the "Yi Wood Scripture", his cultivation level also advanced rapidly. Hearing that there were follow-up cultivation methods for the "Yi Wood Scripture", he had no more concerns about this set of cultivation methods and often went to the Spirit Spring for secluded cultivation.

For a while, it seemed that only Jiang Yuan and Qing He were in the cave.

Qinghe never expected that after her husband broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, he stopped meditating and refining Qi and instead began to cultivate physical techniques.

Afterwards, they would go into the mountains and forests to hunt wild game, catch fish and shrimp, and then return to their cave to feast, turning their alchemy room into a kitchen.

"Why is my husband practicing body cultivation again?"

"This body is really too poor and needs to be polished, otherwise it will be difficult to make progress after the Foundation Establishment stage." Jiang Yuan dared not say that in order to cultivate the Glazed Immaculate Golden Body, he needed to lay a solid foundation from the Qi Refining stage, and complete a body refining goal for each realm.

Even from a practical combat perspective, body tempering is essential; otherwise, one would not last more than a few moves in a real battle.

After observing for several years in Luofu Mountain, Jiang Yuan came to the impression that the cultivation world on this small planet was generally very weak. Even if a sect like Luofu Mountain had a few hidden Nascent Soul cultivators, it would still be easily defeated; it would have been wiped out long ago on Tianlong Star.

Even among cultivators of the same level, Tianlongxing is far more ferocious. Qinghe killed a mid-Foundation Establishment sword cultivator in one move, which was Jiang Yuan's oversight. He didn't expect a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator to be so weak. There was no need to rack his brains to figure out how to cover it up. He could just use the Red Lotus to bombard the opponent directly. That guy probably couldn't even withstand it.

Jiang Yuan's body-refining technique was extremely abnormal. He set up an array that produced a large number of sticks and willow whips, which continuously lashed his muscles, bones, skin, and flesh. Each time, he would beat them until his skin was torn and his flesh was ripped open before he would soak them in a medicine vat, which was filled with blood.

Qinghe felt terrible watching this; how could anyone practice martial arts like that? It was going to kill them.

After persisting in this way for half a year, the results were very obvious. Jiang Yuan opened three acupoints in succession, two Yin Water and one Yang Water. He didn't meditate or cultivate Qi much at all, and naturally advanced to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Before establishing the foundation, one must open several spiritual veins; otherwise, opening the Ren and Du meridians will be difficult.

Jiang Yuan also had to make choices. If he wanted greater killing power, it would be best to break through the fire veins, so that water and fire could merge and he could cultivate powerful thunder techniques. If he wanted to plan for the long term, he should first break through the wood elemental veins and cultivate the "All Things Grow" technique to heal himself, which would benefit him for life.

Wood-based techniques naturally possess strong recovery capabilities. For example, after each body-refining session, one can spend less time soaking in a medicinal bath.

In the Five Elements theory, water nourishes wood. With both the Yang and Yin water spiritual veins of the river source fully opened, and several supernatural acupoints also opened, opening up the wood-type spiritual veins is not difficult.

From then on, his spiritual practice was free of obstacles, and he made rapid progress.

A year later, Jiang Yuan successfully established his foundation without using any Foundation Establishment Pills.

Qinghe then remembered that she still had a Foundation Establishment Pill, so she decided to give it to Senior Sister Jingxuan.

Although Jingxuan is still at the eighth level of Qi Refining, she will reach the Foundation Establishment stage in one or two years at most. With her aptitude, she may really need the Foundation Establishment Pill to help her.

Old Lu was already used to Jiang Yuan's various miraculous methods. He himself spent a lot of time cultivating and had already broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment half a year ago. It would probably take another three to five years to reach the late stage of perfection.

Jiang Yuan, however, was already getting restless and started preparing some things, wanting to go out for a stroll.

First, he crafted a flying magic weapon, which was actually made from spiritual spring water. From the outside, it looked like a cloud, about two zhang in diameter. When it flew, it really gave people the feeling of riding the clouds.

Then, they dismantled the few low-level magical artifacts left behind by Lao Lu and reforged a set of robes, a shield, and a water-splitting spike.

The water-splitting dagger, about a foot long with pointed ends, is used by mortals and is called the Emei dagger. Jiang Yuan always felt that this thing was better than a flying sword, more flexible and faster.

Of course, it's just for casual use; there's no way someone at this level could possess any divine artifacts.

Speaking of divine artifacts, Jiang Yuan actually has two: a peach wood hairpin and a red thread of fate. The hairpin has already been refined and recognized by its owner, but the red thread cannot be refined. Even a true immortal probably couldn't do it.

That year, Qinghe's cultivation level did not improve much and remained at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. She mainly focused on collecting herbs and refining pills, producing a large number of second-tier Spirit Feeding Pills, third-tier Yuan Gathering Pills, and third-tier Great Rejuvenation Pills.

Spirit-Feeding Pills are naturally used to feed spirit beasts. You might need them yourself, and they're also relatively easy to sell for money.

The Gathering Essence Pill is equivalent to a high-grade Qi-restoring Pill and can be used during the Foundation Establishment stage. The Great Rejuvenation Pill is similar to the Rejuvenation Pill, restoring blood and regenerating muscles, and is more expensive than the Gathering Essence Pill.

The Foundation Establishment stage is marked by frequent battles, with Foundation Establishment cultivators often spearheading conflicts between sects. To form their Golden Core, Foundation Establishment cultivators frequently form teams to hunt demonic beasts and explore secret realms, resulting in an extremely high demand for healing pills.

With the accumulation of dozens of bottles of third-grade pills, Qinghe's alchemy skills are now capable of reaching the fourth grade. As long as she has the right pill formula and materials, she can successfully advance to the fourth grade by making a batch of fourth-grade pills.

Only those at the fourth rank are considered true beginners in alchemy, and they will be sought after by any sect they wish to join.

A fifth-rank alchemist is considered a high-ranking alchemist, because pill formulas for fifth-rank and above are extremely rare and are almost always passed down in secret.
