Several days later, Black Mountain, Guardian Mansion.
Song Chai Xin sat as straight as a ridge, like a mountain, contemplating the 'Dragon and Tiger True Gang'.
A bright yellow Gang Qi swirled around him, transford from the Demon Suppression Dao Qi, converging together, flowing like streams, swirling outside his body.
After a long ti, as his skin and flesh glowed with gold, his bones and skin mbrane revealed a shimring light like treasure, finally turning from outward to inward, flowing strands of refined 'Internal Gang Qi' into the Yellow Court Dantian.
With every step achieved, the aura within his body beca more robust.
As the cultivation deepened,
Song Chai Xin would occasionally open his eyes, take out a round Great Pill from the jade treasure vase beside him, and swallow it whole.
Suddenly, his entire body surged with Qi and blood, like flas being fanned, swelling rapidly.
The vast dicinal power poured into his limbs and bones, spreading swiftly.
After completing a circulation, it returned to the ocean, refining the muscles and skin again, finally settling in the Yellow Court Dantian, transforming into nourishnt, causing the 'Qi' within his Dantian to surge higher, only calming down after a long while!
As ntioned previously by Xiang Zhulu, the 'Dan Shen Hu Jin Da Dan', costing a hundred taels each, one per month, is invaluable. Even if an ordinary person saved silver coins for years, without the proper channels, it would be unobtainable.
However,
The previous Commander of the Military Departnt, Liang Longwei, was greedy enough to partner with demons, taking control of all Black Mountain's resources, becoming wealthy and capable.
Through transactions with the city's guilds and large pharmacy chains like 'Danxia Hall' established in states, prefectures, and cities, he obtained a batch of valuable Great Pill Treasure dicine.
For things related to Foundation Establishnt Four Gates, bottles and jars here are like candies.
As for those at the Great Innate Level...
There are several items even more precious than those rely refining the Vajra Realm body like the 'Dan Shen Hu Jin Da Dan'.
This is rely excluding the daily supplies for his cultivation!
It's unimaginable how much Treasure dicine he consud over these ten or twenty years.
The one Song Chai Xin just took was called 'Danxia Nourishing Qi Quenching Essence Pill', supplied to the city's pharmacy once a year by Danxia Hall.
Just one can shorten ordinary people's Yellow Court Power by six months.
Cultivators often say,
"Thirty years to refine the Vajra Imperable Body, thirty years to cultivate Yellow Court Qi Like Sea, experiencing cycles, in old age witnessing the Divine Soul, then realizing True Serenity is as hard as ascending to the heavens."
This short phrase seems poetic.
But actually, it reveals the difficulty for martial artists to cross the second step without Treasure Pill Great dicine or exceptional talent.
With proper resource provision, achieving Foundation Establishnt by thirty is considered exceedingly good; one might even be called genius among geniuses.
But afterward, without Great Innate Level resources,
It's about reaching Vajra Fury Enters the Yellow Court by sixty, Yellow Court Perfection by ninety, birthing the Divine Soul to enter Carefree, beyond that... one need not say,
For this calculation assus martial artists in their pri of Qi and blood.
If Qi and blood decline...
The difficulty of Yellow Court and Vajra might double.
If following the routine, honest cultivation steps, half a foot in the coffin might not even guarantee Vajra enters Yellow Court.
As for Yellow Court entering Carefree, even less to say!
"Cultivating Yellow Court Qi for thirty years can accumulate the foundation for condensing 'low-grade' Alchemy Dao, this is the bare minimum."
"For refining middle-grade and above, one must find heavenly and earthly treasures, or cultivate orthodox scriptures of a higher level, to refine one's entire learning within."
"Phew!"
"Indeed, cultivation is like climbing a mountain, step by step, heavy pass by heavy pass, as for top-grade Primordial Pill, one dares not even think!"
"But now, relying on external Gang entering internal Gang, supplented by elixirs, I already have several years of Yellow Court Inner Power, among which the 'Demon Suppression' Dao Qi contributes significantly!"
"To go higher, farther, solely relying on elixir assistance is still not enough."
"Demon slaying is urgent!"
It's said that when top-grade pills are ford, 'phenona' appear!
If everything goes smoothly, the third step will be a broad road!
It can only be described in one phrase:
True Master is near!
But since the Grotto Heaven hasn't appeared for three hundred years, such existence can't be produced in a state over decades; there's nothing for reference, to achieve like Senior Sister Song Brahman Mirror, crafting a 'middle-grade' Alchemy Dao...
It's considered top-tier in a state, worthy of pride!
Recalling these cultivation secrets, Song Chai Xin paused to rest, originally intending to continue solidifying his foundation, continuing cultivation.
But with the knock from the newly appointed Director of the Military Departnt, it interrupted his thoughts.
...
In the long corridor of the Guardian Mansion, Chen Zhao frowned, sweat erging on his forehead, as if he had bungled sothing.
He pushed open the door and entered the hall.
Seeing Song Chai Xin cultivating cross-legged, his Qi and blood like a furnace, he imdiately showed a bitter expression:
"Lord Guardian, sothing unexpected happened..."
Donning his coat, breathing out a turbid air, Song Chai Xin's expression remained unchanged:
"What could be worse than demons attacking the city?"
Chen Zhao didn't expect Song Chai Xin to respond that way, choked:
"Uh, well, it's not that bad."
The new Director of the Military Departnt, recalling today's gossip, hesitated for a mont but continued:
"However... it's not so good for your reputation, My Lord..."
Song Chai Xin was tidying his robe.
Upon hearing this, his palm suddenly paused, his brow furrowed:
"What do you an by this?"
Chen Zhao said in a deep voice:
"Since you, My Lord, days ago, with a thunderous montum, killed those four demon heads, and hung them inside and outside the city to serve as a warning, I've been in charge of the Military Departnt, concurrently acting as the Outer City Departnt Head, leading the Black Mountain Martial Soldiers and constables, searching the city for days!"
