By the banks of The Great River.
The Daoist sat cross-legged on the Lotus Platform, with a Treasure Cauldron suspended above his head.
His face bore an expression of hesitation.
His gaze fell on the immaculate surface of the Lotus Platform, where five fist-sized lotus seeds were embedded, exuding pure Five Elents Spirit Qi.
It is only natural for the Lotus Platform to give birth to lotus seeds.
And the quality of the lotus seeds condensed from this Five Elents Lotus Platform, which is just a step away from the Fifth Order, is self-evident.
If used in dicine, they could serve as the main ingredient of a Fourth Order Pill.
If used in artifact refining, the resulting one-ti-use Magic Item might not be any less destructive than the Lei Xian Bead that once circulated from Bai Ye Cave Mansion of Accumulation Thunder Mountain.
Luo Chen didn’t have the corresponding thods for their use at hand.
After all, when refining the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, only the Lotus Platform itself is needed.
At this mont, Luo Chen tentatively placed his hand on a red bead, precisely the Fire Lotus Seed.
According to Han Zhan, the Five Elents Lotus Platform is an auxiliary cultivation treasure that only a Nascent Soul True Master can utilize. It can harness the ability to absorb and automatically filter impurities from Heaven and Earth Qi, thus accelerating cultivation.
Even in the Eastern Wasteland, it is rarely circulated and is controlled by the Dark Abyss Sect.
Occasionally, a small quantity might find its way to circulation.
It is said that True Master Shenyuan of the Five Elents Divine Sect could proficiently cultivate in all five elents and reached the Late Stage Nascent Soul thanks to a Five Elents Lotus Platform.
Very likely, the Lotus Platform that True Master Shenyuan acquired is not as good as the one before Luo Chen.
But I digress.
Back to the main point.
While this item is ant for Nascent Souls, it’s not entirely useless in the hands of a Golden Core cultivator!
Using a Golden Core in place of the lotus seeds, supplented by the Bewitching God Technique, the lotus platform’s spirit would treat the cultivator’s Golden Core as its nurtured lotus seeds.
Thus, it could still serve in assisting cultivation.
Moreover, in this process, Luo Chen could also lever his influence to "instruct" the lotus platform’s spirit to cease its rebellious struggle, allowing an effortless departure from the Blazing Refinent Prison.
"Let’s give it a try!"
Luo Chen applied slight force, forcibly prying out the Fire Lotus Seed amid the angry struggle of the Five Elents Lotus Platform.
Then he opened his mouth and spat, a white elixir pill spiraled out.
It wasn’t the Lifebound Golden Core, but a second Yuan Pill with its qi exhausted!
Though trusting Han Zhan, Luo Chen dared not experint with his Lifebound Golden Core; what if sothing went wrong?
After all, Han Zhan had never used the Five Elents Lotus Platform for cultivation; his tips were overheard during exchanges with fellow cultivators.
With the Second Pri Elixir, there’s no loss.
If it doesn’t work, Luo Chen still had the energy to extract it.
The Origin Core entered the Lotus Platform, almost like its lotus seed.
When Luo Chen operated the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra," imnse Heaven and Earth Qi surged from all directions, from the magma river below and from the Blazing Refinent Prison dense with Fire Spirit Energy.
Such violent Qi, usually, Luo Chen would have to cautiously capture and refine.
But now, he bypassed that step.
The next mont, that overwhelming Qi was directly infused into the Five Elents Lotus Platform.
Upon obtaining this batch of Qi, the previously struggling Five Elents Lotus Platform beca slightly calm.
It was as if soone was "feeding" it.
Luo Chen held his breath, focusing intently on its changes.
A mont later, he sighed with relief, expelling a breath of Turbid Qi.
"It’s indeed feasible; Han Zhan didn’t deceive !"
In his perception, the violent Heaven and Earth Qi flooded the entire Lotus Platform, impurities began to filter out, and the essence poured through the platform’s ridians, rushing into the five lotus seeds.
And since this place was the Blazing Refinent Prison, most of the Qi was of the Fire Attribute, sending streams of Fire Spirit Energy towards the original position of the Fire Lotus Seed.
Under such enhancent, the Second Pri Elixir like a ravenous beast, accepted all cors, opened wide, and devoured wildly.
After completing a Grand Circulation, looking at the Second Pri Elixir again, its internal Spirit Qi now contained one or two percent.
Progress was gratifying!
While Luo Chen rested, Han Zhan specially reminded, "Rember to subsequently refine this batch of Spirit Qi within the Origin Core using Divine Consciousness, comprehensively converting it into your Qi Power. After all, you are only in the Golden Core Period, and without a Nascent Soul, you cannot fully grasp the power of Heaven and Earth Qi. Strictly speaking, the absorbed Qi hasn’t been imprinted by you yet."
"Understood."
Luo Chen gently nodded.
Then, after a brief adjustnt, Luo Chen once again comnced operating the cultivation technique.
...
After a great battle, there must be recuperation.
Luo Chen cultivated by the Spirit Qi-rich magma river, and so did the Moyun Cave Lord, who found a quiet place for closed-door healing.
As for Tai Sui, he was rather peculiar.
In worse shape initially, after a battle with the King Squid, not only did his emaciated form return to a plump state, but his ntal state also improved greatly.
Instead of closed-door cultivation, he wandered around the Blazing Refinent Prison.
The three of them, none urged to hurry on the journey.
Ti slipped away steadily.
During this process, Luo Chen released Tian Xuan, letting her attempt to gather so Fire Attribute resources nearby.
She explored the safe places.
For dangerous ones, she avoided provoking them as much as possible.
When another day of cultivation concluded, Luo Chen felt sowhat fatigued in his spirit.
This continuous day-night operation of his Lifebound Qi Technique was usually only undertaken during deep closed-door cultivation, exerting imnse pressure on the cultivator’s Divine Soul.
Even for him, there was a need to pause occasionally for rest.
He took out a Fasting Elixir from the storage ring and swallowed it, feeling slightly satiated, while his attention was drawn to the rolling magma river beneath his feet.
A red fish was swimming nearby.
