After slowly withdrawing his power, Li Ji'an forcibly cald his inner turmoil and turned to enter the Alchemy Room.
Once again, he took out the ancient and simple Cultivation Technique Jade Talisman obtained from the Liu Family Ancestor's Storage Pouch.
"Immortal Golden Body Technique"
After a month of study, as expected, this was indeed the "Demon Technique" practiced by the Liu Family Ancestor!
However, Li Ji'an's understanding of "Demon Technique" had so deviations.
In fact, the concept of "demon" in this Cultivation Realm was also different from Li Ji'an's understanding.
In the announcents from the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, any cultivation thods outside of the normal Five Elents and their derivative affinity techniques were considered "demon" and "evil."
Similar to those who absorb Yin Fiend, Soul Qi, Corpse Qi, or even those dual-cultivation techniques that absorb furnaces are Demon Cultivators.
Such techniques are also terd as Demon Techniques.
Even the Spirit Soul Cultivation Technique from ancient tis, because it offered shortcuts to strengthen oneself by devouring others' divine souls, has now been defined as a Demon Technique.
In Li Ji'an's view, this "Immortal Golden Body Technique" was an ancient Body Refining Technique.
Practicing it to Great Success would result in bones like gold and jade, and an immortal flesh.
However, its cultivation thod demands extrely high talent in physical roots and bones.
At Tier One, it's similar to the two body refining techniques Li Ji'an practiced, which polish muscles and bones, temper Essence Blood, and stimulate bodily potential.
At Tier Two, it differs, not relying on Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects to transform flesh but requiring absorption of extre Yin and extre Yang for cultivation.
At Tier Three, it even requires burning one's own Essence Blood for Bone Forging. If Essence Blood is insufficient, achieving success is difficult.
After a month of comprehension, Li Ji'an roughly guessed why the Liu Family Ancestor would keep Blood Slaves.
It was because his own flesh was inadequate, likely unable to reach the entry threshold, so he reared individuals with excellent physical talent within the Immortal Dynasty and nurtured a body full of Essence Blood.
He then devoured these Blood Slaves' Essence Blood to nourish himself!
Of course, in theory, this thod could also enhance his body refining efficiency.
Luckily, he did not succeed in advancing to Tier Three Body Cultivation; otherwise, the technique's records indicate that once Tier Three Golden Body is achieved, it can withstand late-stage True Core power undeterred.
And once achieving Tier Three Golden Body, he would probably devour even more Essence Blood.
"With my roots and bones, and my current level of body cultivation, there should be no problem!" Li Ji'an stroked the Ancient Jade Talisman, his excitent hard to suppress.
This ancient body refining technique is the most complete one he has seen so far, and once Tier Three Golden Bone is achieved, longevity will be comparable to a Golden Core.
Ultimately, Li Ji'an carefully stored the Jade Talisman, temporarily controlling his inner impulses.
For everything, wait a few years, wait until the impact of this event is completely gone, then reconsider.
Or simply wait until the next life to practice this technique.
Subsequently, he pulled out a beast hide scroll exuding a decaying aura.
It was filled with illustrations and texts, detailing the thod to connect and enhance Spirit Vein Dao Fields.
Undoubtedly, opening the Liu Family Ancestor's Storage Pouch that day was truly shocking for Li Ji'an.
It also showed him the wealth of nearly four hundred years of a Fake Pill True Man.
It wasn't that he was excessively wealthy; in fact, there were almost no Spirit Stones and cultivation resources, as his closed seclusion was mainly focused on advancing to Tier Three Golden Body Technique, mostly possessing Essence Blood related Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects.
Apart from needed body cultivation spiritual objects for seclusion, there were more ancient artifacts.
Basically all were ancient excavations.
Aside from the Body Refining Technique and beast hide scroll, he also saw ancient books related to Earth Spirit Masters.
Of course, more information and resources were about arrays.
There was even a suspected ancient Tier Six Grand Array's detailed breakdown.
Also, Li Ji'an found the answer to how he could dispatch family mbers to enter and exit the Immortal Dynasty from his Storage Pouch.
It was a self-narrated Jade Talisman from soone who claid to be a Qi Cultivator from four thousand years ago, he was also an experienced Array Master, who accidentally discovered the Life Gate of the Storm Desert and relying on geomancy array thods, successfully ventured in and out a place similar to a secluded land during tribe periods.
Just as Li Ji'an sensed before on the outskirts of the Storm Desert, the Life Gate only exists below Qi Cultivation Stage Cultivators.
-------------
In the following year, Li Ji'an thoroughly comprehended the secret technique for enhancing Spirit Vein Dao Fields and passed it on to Xiaoqiao.
Normal Gathering Spirit Arrays can also gather regional Spiritual Qi, enhancing the spiritual energy of Spirit Vein Dao Fields, though their upper limit is not high and is also related to the total amount of regional Spiritual Qi.
For example, the Spirit Peak where Li Ji'an is currently located, the Spirit-Gathering Array can only condense the nearby Spiritual Qi.
With only Li Ji'an occupying a solitary peak, and him alone absorbing the Spiritual Qi, it can be enhanced to the extent of Upper Grade Tier Two Spirit Vein.
However, the thod recorded in the beast hide scroll can forcibly capture Spirit Veins, even creating them from nothing.
If Xiaoqiao's ability to connect Earth Veins is sufficient, she could entirely relocate the Spirit Vein from the main peak of Biyun Sect to this solitary peak.
Yet, Xiaoqiao's current Earth Spirit Master ability is insufficient to harness Spirit Veins; otherwise, he truly wishes to test it on so surrounding offshoots.
"It's been a year! Still not over." On this day, Li Ji'an gazed toward the direction of the Biluo Marketplace, once more feeling stirred.
However, he continuously monitored the Ten Thousand Laws Palace's progress concerning the Liu Family matter.
No conclusion has been reached yet.
The group of Pill Masters from Biyun Sect's Pill Cauldron Peak returned half a year ago; Li Ji'an indirectly gathered information, Master Jade Pill revealed that their MISSION was hunting for a collaboration with Ten Thousand Laws Palace's Tier Three Pill King to study pill dicines aiding Core Formation, results were disappointing.
Moreover, their statent, Qin Henian had truthfully confessed to those rumor matters over the years to the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, stating that the initial framing of Liu Family Ancestor's cultivation of Demon Technique was rely seeing him old and still not dead, often missing, but mainly to save Liu Jingchun.
Regarding the Core Formation Holy Scripture and Life Extension Technique, he denied them, claiming the high probability was that mysterious person fabricating the rumors.
Nonetheless, what slightly concerned Li Ji'an was that the Pill King from Ten Thousand Laws Palace was adamant that the rumors spread by Li Ji'an years ago about pill dicines aiding Core Formation must be true.
If it wasn't the Liu Family Ancestor, then it surely was that mysterious person possessing a certain Ancient Pill Formula that aids Core Formation.
They are zealously propelling Ten Thousand Laws Palace to search for this person throughout the entire Celestial Cyan Domain!
Pill Formulas aiding Core Formation are crucially significant even to Ten Thousand Laws Palace.
Naturally, they began an exhaustive search.
Now, the purpose of seeking the Liu Family Ancestor isn't simply Exorcism and Protection of the Dao, but wanting to identify the mysterious person through the Liu Family Ancestor, considering they have been persistently pushing Liu Family matters, then vanished, with clear purpose, the Liu Family Ancestor surely knows who the greatest enemy is.
Yesterday, Li Ji'an heard that the Ten Thousand Laws Palace dispatched representatives to another Cultivation Domain in the northeastern direction, originally nad the Boundless Domain, but defined as Demon Realm by Ten Thousand Laws Palace three thousand years ago, strictly guarded, never allowing them to set foot in the Celestial Cyan Domain.
Now, for the sake of Core Formation Pill Formula, they actively engaged with it, probably suspecting a connection between the Liu Family Ancestor's Demon Technique and the opposite side, even suspecting Liu Family Ancestor escaped to the Demon Realm.
Fortunately, Li Ji'an earlier acted ticulously, leaving no traces, never exposing his identity as a Talisman Master, nor showed any animosity towards the Liu Family.
However, this also prompts him to be more cautious in interacting with Ning Yutan.
Until now, no information has leaked about the Liu Family Celestial Master.
Yet, over a hundred captured mbers of the Liu Family main lineage underwent interrogation and were all executed to serve as a warning.
Qin Henian was comnded by the Ten Thousand Laws Palace for unexpectedly hashing out the Demon Cultivator's advancent, specially awarded a Ten Thousand Laws Palace Jade Token, granting Inner Sect Disciples' privilege.
Moreover, he directly bypassed the Biyun Sect and divided the Liu Family's ancestral land to Qin Henian, for him to handle.
Regarding Liu Jingchun, to uphold family interests, knowing full well the ancestor practiced Demon Technique, kept Blood Slaves, hard lives, yet concealed it and did not report, deserving execution by law.
Given her persistent opposition and in the end cooperated with Qin Henian to counter the ancestor, forcing out the Demon Cultivator's true form, she was spared from death.
Ultimately, her Dantian was abolished, taken away by Qin Henian.
Until three months later.
That day, Li Ji'an's Solitary Peak welcod the first guest from outside the Sect.
Compared to what was previously seen through Gugu's vision, now she appeared much aged, her hair gray, her expression worn.
It was precisely Liu Jingchun's partner, Guo Zilan.
And it was during this encounter that Li Ji'an finally felt at ease, decisively heading to Biluo Marketplace to closely interact with Ning Yutan.
