He looked around, and after confirming there were no traces left behind, transford into a golden escape light and sped toward the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
...
...
Two months later.
Xu Ping returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons low-key.
Celestial Cyan Peak.
As soon as Xu Ping returned to his cave abode, the steward of the main peak, Xie Lu, imdiately greeted him and proactively reported the situation of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
During his ti away.
Apart from Master Yun Qing having completely restored his foundation and going into seclusion to plan for Nascent Soul Formation, nothing major happened within the mountain gate.
"Going into seclusion to plan for Nascent Soul Formation?"
Xu Ping slightly raised his eyebrows and stroked his chin thoughtfully.
This didn’t surprise him.
After all, that Tier Four healing holy pill could perfectly restore the Golden Core foundation, which was beyond doubt.
If through this event, the other’s mindset could be elevated, it would certainly be of great help in overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation.
However, whether Master Yun Qing successfully forms his Nascent Soul is of no consequence to Xu Ping.
Even if the other ascended to Nascent Soul True Monarch, in Xu Ping’s eyes, he would be just a newly promoted Nascent Soul.
With his current foundation and strength, even if Yun Qing harbored hostility toward him, it would not pose any substantial threat.
...
Half an hour later.
Xu Ping returned to the underground cave abode.
"Master, you have worked hard!"
A voice full of sycophancy suddenly rang out.
Xu Ping looked up to see the Water Lake Mouse, with a fawning expression, darting out from the corner of the secret room and arriving before him in the blink of an eye.
"Hmm."
Xu Ping responded indifferently, yet his gaze ticulously scrutinized the spirit beast he had cultivated single-handedly.
The aura of the Water Lake Mouse had beco significantly heavier compared to before he left, and as its demonic power circulated, there was a faint hint of spiritual resonance.
These subtle changes indicated that during Xu Ping’s absence, the Water Lake Mouse had not slacked off but had diligently refined itself in preparation for the impending transformation.
"The Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill is in hand."
Xu Ping spoke with a tone carrying a degree of solemnity, "The spiritual objects needed for your transformation are all prepared, and for the ti being, you need to diligently hone your cultivation to make full preparation for the transformation."
The matter of transformation is greatly significant.
It is not only a crucial turning point in the cultivation journey of the Water Lake Mouse but also relates to Xu Ping’s future cultivation plans.
Should it fail, not only would the life of the Water Lake Mouse be in danger.
All the precious spiritual objects Xu Ping had invested would also go to waste, a loss beyond asure.
"Rest assured, Master, the little mouse will surely refine its cultivation to the utmost!" The Water Lake Mouse responded with overjoyed assurance.
It knew well the value of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill, sothing even a Nascent Soul sect’s Golden Core Perfection cultivator would find elusive.
With the addition of this pill, coupled with the other transformation spiritual objects prepared ticulously by the master, the likelihood of it breaking through to the Fourth Rank and completing its transformation would greatly increase.
By then, within the entire Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, perhaps no one could match its success rate.
Of course, the master was not included in this comparison.
After all, the master’s depth was imasurable, achieving Nascent Soul would be a piece of cake.
...
After sending away the Water Lake Mouse, Xu Ping ca beside the withered wood and began to sense it carefully.
A mont later, he nodded contentedly:
"The vitality of this withered wood is indeed much richer than before, even the gourd on the withered wood has grown sowhat larger."
His gaze lingered at the top of the withered wood, where a thumb-sized cyan gourd was growing.
This gourd seed ordinary at first glance, yet the vitality it exuded was extrely pure.
This was a quality not possessed by ordinary spirit plants, even so rare spirit grass could not compare.
"But who knows how long it will take for this gourd to fully mature."
Xu Ping sighed lightly, shaking his head, with a hint of helplessness and anticipation in his eyes.
If the gourd indeed harbored the treasure he suspected, it would be one of the greatest opportunities of his lifeti.
Such thoughts leading, Xu Ping’s gaze shifted to another Fla Prison Purple Wood in a corner of the cave abode.
With his current ability to accelerate maturation, attempting to mature the Fla Prison Purple Wood to a ten-thousand-year level was undoubtedly a distant hope.
"Forget it, after achieving Nascent Soul, I’ll think about this further."
Xu Ping shook his head gently, focusing his thoughts on more pressing matters.
The Nascent Soul Realm was currently his most important goal, everything else had to be postponed for it.
Especially after learning of the Wind Origin Realm’s invasion, ti beca even more precious to him.
"First, let’s refine the Tier Four Longevity Pill."
Thinking of this, a hint of heat passed through his mind.
The Tier Four Longevity Pill, a treasure even a Nascent Soul True Monarch would covet.
If he were to consu and refine it, the lifespan increase would surely be far greater than the typical growth experienced by ordinary cultivators.
Without delay, Xu Ping went to the secret room, sat cross-legged on the stone bed, and entered a deep ditation state.
For the next five or six days.
He fully adjusted his state, ensuring that both his mana and physical body were at their peak.
By the morning of the seventh day, Xu Ping, having restored his peak state, slowly opened his eyes.
"Let’s begin!"
Xu Ping took out a crimson jade box and carefully opened it.
In an instant.
A thick, almost tangible vitality power spread out, causing the spiritual qi in the secret room to surge.
Within the box lay a pill entirely of deep amber color, with golden patterns flowing endlessly, exuding a fragrance that touched the soul.
Xu Ping took a deep breath and gingerly retrieved the Tier Four Longevity Pill, then tilted his head back and swallowed it.
In that mont, a stream of warmth akin to sunlight spread throughout his body.
The warmth first gathered at the dantian, then, like rivers returning to the sea, spread to his limbs and bones.
