Chen Xun took a sip of his health tea, feeling as if his mind had finally settled after all these years, a stark contrast to his previous state.
"The auspicious ti has arrived!"
"The auspicious ti has arrived!"
"The auspicious ti has arrived!"
Three voices spoke simultaneously, with two fingers raised in front of their chests, and suddenly, incense burners appeared all around, with light smoke swirling.
Chen Xun's gaze sharpened as he solemnly declared, "Today, I open the furnace to refine pills. May the heavens and the earth bless and grant this favor!"
Three grand voices echoed simultaneously, filled with unprecedented devotion and reverence.
Buzz—
The Northern Cold Zhuo Ying Furnace spiraled into the sky, and five round holes erupted with intense, pure Drug Fire. Spiritual herbs flew from the dicine field, entering the furnace in an instant.
The three figures were in perfect harmony, their finger techniques exquisite, as the qi of the Five Elents transford into a sea of fire in an instant.
The entire furnace was enveloped by the Five Elents fire, yet it remained unhard.
The sound of the furnace's hum resonated throughout the underground, as Chen Xun and the others' fingers danced faster and faster, without exhausting their minds, feeling utterly relaxed.
At this mont, the world's energy surged in, and he not only used Drug Fire to refine pills but also infused them with energy, transforming it into the purest essence of the world!
What is essence? It is the fundantal makeup of the world. Every ancient mountain, river, and sea is a part of the essence, giving birth to the faintly visible energy that forms the world's veins.
They gather into boundaries or grand worlds, giving birth to essence, which in turn nourishes the world's energy, in an endless cycle.
And the qi of the Five Elents remains the dium for their transformation!
Perhaps true annihilation is not about destroying energy or cutting off its essence, but severing the qi of the Five Elents, cutting off all connections and transformation relationships with the world!
Chen Xun had once done this to the waves, causing them to fall silent in an instant, but they soon returned to their original state, nourished by the essence, forming waves once more.
But if the Five Elents were severed, it would be like disintegration, completely dissipating, unable to recover, even the essence couldn't help.
The destruction of the boundary back then was rely because the Annihilation Yuan Cannons were too powerful for the small boundary.
Its speed of devouring energy exceeded the small boundary's ability to nourish, leading to that destructive blow, which was the fundantal reason for shattering the small boundary.
If the Annihilation Yuan Cannons wanted to devour the energy of a grand world, it might not even cause a tremor.
The Annihilation Yuan Cannons were too insignificant and powerless against a grand world; its speed of devouring could never match the speed at which the essence of the grand world nourished the world's energy, a colossal joke.
Moreover, when Chen Xun truly possessed imnse mana, the effect of the world's tumor would surely be fully triggered!
By then, essence would no longer be essence, energy would no longer be energy, and he would completely sever all connections, heralding the darkest era of the grand world...
Energy could not nourish essence, essence could not nourish energy, like a castle in the air, collapsing at a touch.
These insights all ca from the transmission stone he bought, and he could only comprehend to this extent for now.
So understandings beyond the limits of one's realm cannot be thought out by sitting idly; one must truly reach that realm to fully grasp its aning.
Chen Xun had no intention of destroying the world; he only wanted to find the culprit, nothing more.
Buzz!
At this mont, the color of the furnace turned purple, as energy and the qi of the Five Elents intertwined silently, but the spiritual herbs inside seed unable to withstand it, turning into a pool of waste liquid.
Chen Xun's eyebrows twitched, failing in his first attempt at pill refining in the grand world, a rare expression of distress appeared in his eyes!
It was his first ti using energy to enhance pill refining, so he began to take out a small booklet to record his insights, just as he used to.
An hour later, a low, invigorated roar ca from underground:
"The auspicious ti has arrived, I open the furnace to refine pills, may the heavens and the earth bless and grant this favor!"
Ti passed silently, and three months went by.
Chen Xun walked out from underground, dusting off the pill ash on his body, as if nothing had happened, and indeed, it seed as if nothing had happened.
He ca empty-handed and left with nothing but insights recorded in a small booklet.
That's right, all the pills were wasted, not a single success!
"Damn it..."
Chen Xun looked around, seeing no one, his expression twisted, finally letting out a low growl, "It seems the timing was wrong, the auspicious ti of the grand world is different from before, as expected, it must have violated the taboos of the heavens and the earth."
He walked on his own, arriving at a grove of Crane Spirit Trees he and Bull had secretly planted back then, which had thrived over the fifty years of neglect.
Boom!
A silver axe light sliced through, and a few Crane Spirit Trees fell with a crash, followed by another boom as the fallen trees were chopped into eight pieces by the Mountain-axing axe.
Chen Xun let out a long breath, hands behind his back, leaving with a carefree deanor, though the three Mountain-axing axes strapped to him glinted in the sunlight.
...
Li Chen Island, Heavenly Immortal Tower.
Chen Xun ca here once again, having visited many tis over the years.
The attendants outside, upon seeing him, were filled with respect, even their fingers exuded reverence, as the legendary wealthy senior had returned!
"Greetings, senior, your seat is ready!" Several attendants rushed out from the Heavenly Immortal Tower, all Elental Infant cultivators, creating a grand scene.
Inside the Heavenly Immortal Tower, even a Divine Transformation cultivator personally welcod him, smiling broadly, "Greetings, senior, your presence truly graces our humble tower, Fairy Yue often speaks of you."
The attendants stood respectfully on the side, faces full of smiles. Over fifty years, spending nearly five million mid-grade spirit stones at the Heavenly Immortal Tower, who could match that?!
They were just short of asking if the senior needed any servants, ready to switch jobs imdiately, as even an Elental Infant cultivator could guard a place.
Yet no one knew what he actually did, nor dared to inquire, as such matters were too taboo and against the rules, and offending a Void Refinent cultivator was not sothing to be taken lightly.
"I'm not here to drink today."
Chen Xun held a teacup, looking around, "Nor am I here to admire the fairy's dance. With five million mid-grade spirit stones, I believe the Heavenly Immortal Tower should see my sincerity."
He now seed to have a different deanor, his eyes filled with calm, no longer showing the enjoynt he once had.
With these words, the atmosphere instantly froze, the Divine Transformation cultivator's face changed slightly, seemingly at a loss.
The attendants' smiling faces also stiffened in an instant, as if frozen.
Chen Xun furrowed his brows, walking upstairs with familiarity, entering a rather elegant room, with no attendants coming in.
He admired the surrounding landscapes, even the exotic flowers and birds, very patiently, only occasionally sipping his health tea, no longer drinking wine.
Half a day later.
A powerful aura suddenly emanated from outside, even surpassing Chen Xun's realm, yet his expression remained calm, unmoved by external matters.
A golden light tore open outside the room, and a young man in a dark purple brocade robe, wearing a black jade crown, stepped out.
His ink-black eyebrows slanted into his temples like a blade, his pupils deep and indifferent, containing an inescapable coldness that captivated the soul.
The man's lips were pale, as if carved from a glacier, and a cold smile gradually curved at the corners of his mouth, making one's breath catch.
As he stepped out, his black hair fluttered behind his shoulders, his deanor bold and unrestrained.
Every step he took made the attendants feel as if a vast world of red dust was behind them, shadows flickering, yet the world felt cold and silent.
And this man was the master of the Heavenly Immortal Tower, the Daoist of the Dongxuan Dao Academy in the ngmu Sea Region, a human prodigy on the Chaos Immortal Spirit List of the Southern Yu Continent, Mo Ye Han!
Chen Xun's calm gaze gradually turned serious, as a powerful sense of oppression swept over him, even causing the blood in his body to slightly boil, stirred by the man's aura.
He couldn't help but be shocked, feeling such oppression reminded him of when he was in the Qi cultivation phase... facing a Golden Core elder!
"I am Mo Ye Han, what brings you here, fellow Daoist?"
A cold, icy voice echoed, as the man stood at a distance, seemingly like a powerful ancient beast, speaking indifferently, "Three questions, I hope fellow Daoist can give a reasonable explanation."
With these words, the entire room fell silent, even the dust in the air seed to pause.
