Early Stage of Taiyi, Purple Cloud Treasure Gourd

To reach the Taiyi realm, one must cultivate the five vital energies within the chest.

Jin Xuan learned about this method from the "Ten Thousand Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture" and his own lineage when he was about to reach the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.

Condensing the five elements within the chest is a slow and meticulous process. It requires using five spiritual objects as a catalyst, combined with various techniques, to condense the five primordial elements within the five internal organs.

The five vital energies within the chest circulate endlessly, generating life without ceasing, ultimately leading to the attainment of the Taiyi Dao fruit.

After that, one's magical power will be inexhaustible and endless, far surpassing that of a Golden Immortal.

Jin Xuan calmed his mind and took a calming leaf, then put it in his mouth.

First came the earth-elemental spiritual object, Jin Xuan, which he found to be a low-grade innate pure light soil.

This item isn't of a high rank, but it's abundant.

Furthermore, the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture can refine precious energy into spiritual energy, thus doubling the efficiency of using these rare and precious materials.

As the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture was being circulated, wisps of profound and heavy aura, originating from the Pure Light Soil, surged into Jin Xuan's mouth and nose, and sank into his spleen palace.

A yellowish-brown vortex slowly formed.

Jin Xuan multitasks, gathering the Azure Wood branch, the Water Element Fruit, the Fire Cloud Fruit, and the Tai Bai Geng Metal that he had previously found.

All the spiritual beings transformed into the essence of the five elements, which flowed into Jin Xuan's body through his pores, mouth, and nose.

The five elements of Qi tend to be in balance within the five internal organs, and rotate slowly.

The five elements generate each other, and the five weak essences of the five elements each occupy the five internal organs, slowly rotating and connecting with each other, growing stronger bit by bit.

However, this is only the beginning. There is still a long way to go before the true cycle of the five elements, the endless cycle of life, and the condensation of the Taiyi Dao Fruit.

This process cannot be rushed, nor can it be slowed down.

Otherwise, the balance of the five elements will be broken, which could result in death or even serious injury.

Jin Xuan was completely immersed in seclusion. As he refined the five elements' essence, the essence within the cave was also absorbed into his body like a whale swallowing its prey.

The wisps of fortune gathered from the treasure basin also blessed him, helping him to stabilize the balance of the five elements.

As time goes by, the five vital energies in the chest become more refined and stronger.

Cultivation knows no time, and the primordial world does not keep track of years.

Inside the Treasure Grotto, apart from Qingyu who regularly collects mature spiritual roots and fruits, no one else disturbs her.

At the beginning of Jin Xuan's seclusion, a five-colored halo swirled around him.

Beyond the grotto-heaven, on the vast and desolate land, winds and clouds surged.

Friction between the Lich and Lich races is increasing, with small-scale conflicts occurring frequently.

As for the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother, relying on their status as the heads of male and female immortals appointed by the Dao Ancestor, they established the Purple Palace Immortal Court centered on the Ten Continents of the Eastern Sea Purple Palace, thus forming a subtle confrontation with the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race.

For a time, the primordial world, like the ancient dragon, phoenix, and qilin races, formed a tripartite balance.

However... although the Purple Mansion Immortal Court has the rightful name, its strength is weaker than the other three forces, and it can only maneuver between the Witch and Demon races.

The other innate deities, after returning to their Daoist temples, devoted themselves to cultivation and comprehending what they had gained from the Zixiao Palace.

After some time, many powerful beings made progress in their cultivation, broke through their barriers, and gradually began to become active on the prehistoric land.

In the blink of an eye, more than 20,000 years have passed in a flash.

The dust that had accumulated on Jin Xuan's body fell down in a soft rustling sound, even without wind.

A pair of tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.

Suddenly, two beams of purple-gold light shot out, piercing through the metal and stone.

A moment later, the purple-gold light subsided.

Deep within those eyes, five-colored light flowed, as if a five-colored world had been formed.

The brilliance flashed and disappeared in an instant, quickly returning to calm.

"Early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal! Success!"

Jin Xuan's aura was harmonious, powerful, and inexhaustible.

Five streams of primordial energy condensed between his chest and abdomen, transforming into five elemental energy wheels that slowly rotated.

Metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates metal... This cycle repeats endlessly, without beginning or end, continuously generating the pure and incomparably powerful Taiyi magic that encompasses the five elements, nourishing Jin Xuan's physical body, primordial spirit, and even his true spirit.

"Not only has he achieved the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but his cultivation is also very stable due to the large number of Five Elements spiritual objects that laid the foundation." Jin Xuan's lips curled up.

Logically speaking, the higher the grade of the five elemental spiritual objects used to refine the five elements in the chest and lay the foundation, the more profound and pure their magical power will be.

The items used to lay the foundation for Jin Xuan this time are not of particularly high grade, but they are numerous.

Normally, ordinary beings might be able to stabilize their cultivation at the peak of the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

However, the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture is different from him; its own treasure-hunting talent makes it relatively easy for him to obtain treasures.

Jin Xuan meticulously refined the five elements within his chest and purified his internal magical power, making it far more profound than others of the same level.

Although he had only just entered the early stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, his supernatural powers and spells were two to three times stronger than those of others of the same level.

Jin Xuan exhaled a breath, condensing a five-colored whirlwind, and then disappeared.

Jin Xuan felt that with the five elements refined in his chest, his perception of the five elements' laws became more than ten times clearer.

The range of his own divine sense also increased significantly, and his control over his own magical power and various supernatural abilities reached a new level.

"After more than 20,000 years of hard work, we have finally achieved something."

Jin Xuan knew that if he encountered a crisis...

Relying on his various skills and the spiritual treasures he possesses, he should have no problem preserving his life as long as his opponent is not a quasi-saint level expert.

Facing late-stage or perfect Taiyi Golden Immortal enemies head-on is not a problem, and it can even suppress ordinary powerful beings who have just entered the Great Luo realm.

Of course, this is just speculation.

If Jin Xuan were to actually engage in a battle of magic with him, Jin Xuan's "steady and reliable" mindset would absolutely not allow him to do so.

Engaging in battle with beings at the mid-to-late stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm was the greatest concession he could make.

Nothing more than the desire to crush, to follow one's heart.

"That blue gourd should be ready by now, right?"

With a thought, Jin Xuan sank into the treasure basin space.

The money tree was now shining brightly with gold, and the once dull blue gourd had changed dramatically.

The gourd was about a foot long, and its entire body was a deep sky blue. On its surface, there were mysterious and profound Dao patterns.

Above the gourd, purple divine lightning crackled and leaped suddenly.

The gourd exudes a chilling aura of both destruction and vitality.

"This gourd already possesses all the requirements of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure!" As Jin Xuan's divine sense touched the gourd, information about it flooded into his mind.

The gourd is named "Purple Heaven Treasure Gourd" and possesses both lightning and spatial attributes.

The gourd contains its own world, capable of nurturing, storing, and releasing the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder.

The Purple Heaven Divine Thunder is heavenly thunder, extremely powerful, extremely yang and strong, and unparalleled in its might.

Secondly, this treasure can nurture spiritual treasures. After being nurtured, the power of the treasure will be greatly enhanced when it is used next time.

Jin Xuan was overjoyed and kept stroking the gourd: "What a wonderful Purple Heaven Treasure Gourd! The Purple Heaven Divine Thunder inside is powerful and can enhance the power of treasures."

"The Pixiu Seal is a powerful weapon in my possession. If one nurtures it within, its power will increase significantly in the future. When this treasure is further elevated to the level of a supreme treasure, how could any other supreme treasure possibly suppress it?"

Jin Xuan took a deep breath, extremely satisfied.

"Indeed, this treasure seems to still have potential and has not yet fully matured. There are only thirty-eight restrictions on it, so it seems to need some more essence blood to nourish it."

He knew that although he had obtained some essence blood before going into seclusion, it was still too little.

Suddenly, Jin Xuan sensed a surge of magical power a thousand miles away.

The person who made the move was at the early to mid-stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and had a lot of karma.

Moreover, there are more than one; there are quite a few of them.

"This is a godsend when you're sleepy. Now, let your lifeblood complete the final nourishment of the Purple Cloud Treasure Gourd."
