Xu Ping nodded slightly, his expression calm and composed as he spoke.
After speaking, he turned and slowly left the secret chamber.
On his way out, he was quietly calculating in his heart.
Once the cultivation of the Lake Water Rat is fully stabilized, he can try to take its essence blood to see if it can speed up the training of the "Profound Turtle Mountain-Suppressing Skill".
If it is indeed feasible, the gains would be trendous!
...
...
anwhile.
In Ancient Sand City, inside a dim and secret chamber, the atmosphere was oppressive and mysterious.
A puppet, carved to look lifelike, stood prominently in the center of the chamber.
The puppet emitted a strong pressure at the quasi-Fourth Rank level, its imnse aura like a substantive roaring tide.
Even a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage might tremble uncontrollably under such pressure, frightened.
Gu Yuntao quietly stood before the puppet, his eyes shining with a passionate and determined glow.
"Let’s begin!"
Gu Yuntao took a deep breath, and as he inhaled, his expression gradually turned solemn and serious.
His hands moved like a blur as he swiftly ford seals, chanting a series of obscure and cryptic incantations.
Buzz!
Instantly, the array arranged in the chamber burst forth with radiant light, runes flickered, weaving into complex and mysterious patterns.
Countless streams of Spiritual Qi surged from all directions, forming torrents that roared towards the center of the chamber.
Boom!
Accompanied by a dull roar, a dark blue fla suddenly rose, enveloping the entire puppet within.
The fla burned fiercely, its temperature incredibly high, and the dark blue glow illuminated the entire chamber like a ghostly presence, casting eerie and fantastical shadows.
"Go!"
Upon seeing this scene, Gu Yuntao flicked his fingers, and a quasi-Fourth Rank Soul Nourishing Wood emitting a gentle sheen shot into the fla.
As soon as the Soul Nourishing Wood touched the fla, it emitted a faint buzzing sound.
Soon after, a fearless and resolute expression flashed in Gu Yuntao’s eyes.
He stepped forward decisively, boldly entering the scorching flas.
The intense heat struck him like a whirlwind, rcilessly burning his skin, yet there was not a hint of retreat in his eyes, his steps steady and resolute.
Upon entering the flas, the quasi-Fourth Rank Soul Nourishing Wood floated above Gu Yuntao’s head like a protective beacon.
With a calm deanor, he sat cross-legged in front of the puppet, his hands swiftly forming a special and complex magic technique, continuously chanting incantations.
Buzz!
The flas intensified dramatically, roaring like a raging tide.
In just monts, all the clothes on Gu Yuntao’s body were burned away, turning into ashes scattered within the flas.
His skin was severely burned, turning completely red, each inch as if enduring hellish agony.
Yet, Gu Yuntao’s expression remained impassive, his eyes reflecting unwavering determination, sitting quietly in front of the puppet as if entirely unaware of the body’s excruciating pain.
Ti flowed slowly, every second seeming interminably long.
At that very mont, sothing shocking occurred.
Gu Yuntao’s body, amidst the continuous burning of the flas, began to lt little by little.
The liquid glimred with mysterious light, seemingly conscious, slowly crawling onto the body of the quasi-Fourth Rank puppet.
The liquid spread along the puppet’s limbs, gradually rging into the puppet’s material, as if to beco one with it.
With the integration of the liquid, the aura on the puppet began to undergo subtle changes.
The originally singular quasi-Fourth Rank pressure beca more complex and powerful, vaguely showing signs of breakthrough.
The flas continued to burn, while the quasi-Fourth Rank Soul Nourishing Wood was slowly being refined and integrated into the puppet, making their union more perfect.
...
Two months.
In Cangyue Mountain, within the secret chamber.
Xu Ping found himself in this tranquil and dim space, faint Spiritual Qi like starlight scattered around.
Xu Ping sat cross-legged on the stone bed, gazing at the Lava Spiritual Marrow infused with the Lake Water Rat’s essence blood in his hands, a trace of fiery anticipation in his eyes.
"I hope it won’t disappoint !"
Xu Ping slightly tilted his head back, his slender Adam’s Apple gently moving, then drank the bottle of Lava Spiritual Marrow without hesitation.
In an instant, a force akin to a volcanic eruption exploded in his abdon, like rampant magma wildly coursing through and crashing within.
With the circulation of the cultivation technique, Spiritual Qi surged all around him, a faint pattern resembling turtle shells appearing on his skin, shimring with ancient luster.
Ti quietly passed during cultivation, several hours flashing by.
The once tumultuous secret chamber now saw the flow of Spiritual Qi gradually settle, restoring its usual tranquility.
Xu Ping slowly ended his cultivation, gently opening his eyes, then exhaled a deep breath, which spread in the air, carrying wisps of heat.
"That Candle Dragon Saliva was truly worth it!"
A flicker of ecstatic glow unavoidably appeared in Xu Ping’s eyes.
Through this cultivation, he clearly felt the speed of the "Profound Turtle Mountain-Suppressing Skill" practice had indeed significantly increased.
Moreover, the extent of this improvent was quite remarkable, enhanced by up to twenty percent.
This ant he could advance to the Third-rank Upper Grade two to three years earlier.
"With this, I should complete the breakthrough before the expedition against the Seed Puppet Sect." A hint of anticipation arose in Xu Ping’s eyes.
Once successfully breaking through to the Third-rank Upper Grade, his Body Refining strength would reach a completely new level, comparable to the quasi-Fourth Rank.
This would be much stronger than a re quasi-Fourth Rank puppet, whether in combat effectiveness or survival ability in the face of danger, it wouldn’t be comparable.
By then, both his combat prowess and survival abilities would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced.
"Almost there!"
Xu Ping murmured to himself, and began cultivating again.
In the secret chamber, surrounded by Spiritual Qi, his figure appeared increasingly steady and determined.
