Mortal: Starting on the Yin Island, his physical body defies the starry sea

The first level of the Iron Cauldron Golden Body Technique is divided into three stages. The entry into the first stage is the most crucial. Without sufficient Golden Yang Qi, one cannot cultivate this technique.

In the two subsequent stages, the Five Elements Demon Blood Body Tempering Method can be used to quickly improve cultivation.

Therefore, Luo Qing needs to prepare a large amount of demon beast essence blood with the five elements, with metal as the main element and the other four elements as secondary elements.

In other words, in the second stage, Luo Qing needs a large amount of mid-level demon beast essence blood of the four elements of wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as high-level demon beast essence blood of the metal element.

The third stage requires a large amount of high-level demonic beast essence blood of the four elements of wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as second-level demonic beast essence blood of the metal element.

The demonic beasts on Jiyin Island are, in essence, artificially raised and kept. The highest cultivation level is held by the first-level old demons, and there are no second-level demonic beasts equivalent to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Of course, Luo Qing could also spend a lot of spirit stones to commission a caravan from Jiyin Island to purchase the required level-two demon blood from outside.

But such a move is far too conspicuous.

After all, he could use the excuse of cultivating the Dao of Talismans to cover up his collection of first-level demon blood.

However, level two demon blood is not something a beginner in the art of talismanic arts should use, let alone specify the five elements attribute of the demon blood.

The Iron Cauldron Golden Body Technique is currently one of Luo Qing's trump cards, and he doesn't want to expose it unless absolutely necessary.

In the blink of an eye, Luo Qing raised her hand and activated the storage bag beside her. Five beams of spiritual light flashed, and five long-necked jade bottles were summoned into the air.

He flicked his finger, and the five jade bottles were inverted simultaneously, pouring out thick, paste-like Five Elements Demon Blood. After falling into the cauldron, it stirred up a cloud of five-colored spiritual energy.

The five jade bottles were empty only after the giant cauldron was filled to more than half. The bottles swayed slightly before Luo Qing put them into his storage bag.

Before leaping into the cauldron, Luo Qing flipped his hand again and took out a completely black jade bottle.

As soon as he uncorked the bottle, a strong, pungent medicinal smell hit his nostrils, making him frown slightly.

He tilted the bottle slightly, and a dark, glossy pill rolled into his palm, its fragrance carrying a faint fishy smell.

"Six Black Refining Pills can be made from three-hundred-year-old mouse-ear grass, the gallbladders of several black-scaled snakes, and auxiliary medicines that are fifty or sixty years old."

This level of skill is far inferior to that of Old Demon Han; fortunately, I didn't fail in my refining attempt.

In order to refine this batch of Black Refined Pills, including the cost of auxiliary materials and the price of hiring alchemists, Luo Qing spent more than a hundred spirit stones.

If one were to push it to its limit, it could potentially divide into nine pills.

Luo Qing didn't expect this one, but he should at least have seven or eight.

After all, the main ingredient of this Black Refining Pill is hard to find; the pill itself is only a mid-grade first-level pill.

The alchemist he sought was a top-tier one.

The Black Refining Pill can directly enhance physical strength, but it is a bit troublesome to refine, requiring four or five days of hard work for each pill.

Fortunately, the Five Elements Demon Blood Body Tempering and Pill Refining do not conflict, so they can be done simultaneously, saving a lot of time.

Zhang swallowed the pill, and Luo Qing put a tortoise-breath stone in her mouth, then leaped into the giant cauldron and disappeared in an instant.

Covered in demonic blood, Luo Qing felt a stinging pain all over her body. Due to the power of the five elements, her body was sometimes cold and sometimes hot, sometimes heavy and sometimes sharp, making her extremely uncomfortable.

The next moment, Luo Qing formed a hand seal, transformed into a golden body, and actively absorbed the domineering five elements spiritual energy from the demon blood to cleanse his physical body.

With this exertion of energy, the original stinging pain turned into excruciating pain like being cut by a thousand knives, as if countless sharp blades were slicing through Luo Qing's golden body.

However, if any damage occurs, the metal element power within the demon blood, which is increased by a small realm, can immediately repair it.

This constant process of breaking down and rebuilding is precisely why external cultivation methods can achieve in a month or so the results of twenty or thirty years of arduous internal cultivation!

"Hold on if you don't want to die!"

Everything else was bearable, but the pain in his lower body made him tremble all over, forcing him to constantly hypnotize himself.

And this method really worked. As she chanted it, Luo Qing's mind became highly focused on circulating the technique, and she gradually forgot the pain.

Meanwhile, the Black Refining Pill slowly dissolved in his abdomen, and a gentle medicinal power flowed through his limbs, constantly nourishing his damaged body and relieving much of his suffering, which was an unexpected joy.

As Luo Qing's cultivation progressed, the Iron Cauldron Golden Body Technique circulated faster and faster. The blood in the cauldron began to slowly rotate along a mysterious trajectory. The originally separate five-colored spiritual energies gradually merged, creating the strange phenomenon of the five elements rotating.

This caused the casting cauldron to rhythmically emit rings of five-colored spiritual light, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if it had become a rare treasure.

This continued day and night for more than twenty days until the spiritual light within the cauldron suddenly vanished, returning to complete silence.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, a dazzling golden shadow flew out of the giant cauldron, carrying a shower of blood droplets, spun in the air, and landed steadily.

With a casual grab, the black robe he had previously taken off flew over, instantly transforming him into a cold-faced young man in black.

"Meng Bao!"

"Congratulations, Master, on the great success of the second stage! In terms of body refinement alone, you are now equivalent to a cultivator at the peak of the mid-stage of Qi Refining!"

此次修行，主人功法所得6精2法1神，丹药所得4精，当前三宝20精7法5神！」

"In this way, my basic cultivation efficiency in the spirit attribute is as high as 120%, plus the 50% from the spiritual root, which is 170%."

Including the enhancement factor, the actual cultivation efficiency can easily exceed 200%.

In this way, one Qi-Gathering Pill can serve the same purpose as two!

Luo Qing clenched his right fist, feeling the physical strength that could tear tigers and leopards apart, and his heart couldn't help but feel excited:

"So what if you have low talent? As long as you find the right method, you can become a genius. There is always a way out!"

Haha, Mengbao, let's go to Xuanhun Peak!

After laughing loudly, Luo Qing put away the Body Forging Cauldron, opened the stone door that had been sealed for a month, and strode out.

......

Xuanhun Peak was not far from the Earth Fire Altar. After traveling for more than an hour, Luo Qing arrived at the foot of the mountain.

His purpose in coming here was naturally to purchase the Spirit Gathering Array, and due to the characteristics of Xuanhun Peak, there were quite a few Qi Refining disciples with the same purpose as him.

So it didn't take him long to find a formation master.

The Spirit Gathering Array is one of the most commonly used arrays. The small Spirit Gathering Array that Luo Qing needs is not expensive, and its price is basically equivalent to that of a high-level magic weapon.

Luo Qing easily acquired it by paying only 60 spirit stones.

After receiving the array flags and array plates from the disciple surnamed Qi, Luo Qing hesitated for a moment before asking:

"Senior Brother Qi, do you know Senior Brother Fu Chang?"

After going to the Earthly Fiend Peak, Luo Qing secretly inquired about Fu Chang, but found no information at all.

This person's existence is indeed a hidden danger for Luo Qing. Now that he has come to the spiritual peak where the other party cultivates, he naturally wants to inquire about him.
