I Accumulate Spirit Roots for My Next Life - Chapter 117 - 25: The Power of Focus
Chapter 117: Chapter 25: The Power of Focus
Time flies, years change,
No matter how the outside world disputes, Li Jizhou lives peacefully on Xiaogang Peak, everything as usual.
Three years later,
“Whoosh~” A Tier Two Middle Level Talisman shot towards Black Xuan.
Black Xuan’s face changed drastically, wanting to escape underground, but found that the surrounding space had been imprisoned, and with its strength as a Tier Two Demon Beast, it couldn’t move an inch.
Immediately afterward, a faint aura enveloped its whole body.
The next moment, it fell to the ground with a thud.
“The Tier Two Talisman is indeed extraordinary, significantly improved in every aspect compared to Tier One!”
With years of Tier One Talisman experience, coupled with the continuation of Tier Two inheritance, Li Jizhou found it natural to learn Tier Two Talismans.
In just three years, he had advanced to a Tier Two Middle Level Talisman Master, crafting exquisite Talismans with ease.
Moreover, with the combination of poison, he was confident in subduing Early Stage of Foundation Establishment cultivators of the same tier.
The Tier Two Imprisonment Talisman already faintly possessed the power of space, able to imprison targets for a short time.
Then using the Tier Two poison attached to the Talisman to invade the body, which is hard for Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators to resist.
“Detoxify it.” Li Jizhou handed a bottle of antidote to a puppet servant beside him.
The art of puppetry was indeed difficult,
Over three years, he spent as much time on puppetry as on Talismans, yet only reached Tier One Middle Level now.
The puppets he crafted could only compare to minor cultivators at the Early Stage of Qi Cultivation, of little use, merely replacing Black Xuan in its duties.
“Quack~” Black Xuan woke up slowly, instinctively jumping up.
Nearly bumping into the puppet.
Upon seeing the puppet, Black Xuan was startled, hurriedly approaching, carefully licking the puppet with its tongue.
Afraid of injuring the puppet.
Since Li Jizhou created this puppet a year ago, its days were much more leisurely, soaking in the Celestial Pool daily to enjoy the scenery, and jokingly mocking Bai Yi who diligently refined pills.
To it, this puppet was very endearing.
Li Jizhou was quite satisfied after testing the poison effect of the Tier Two Talisman.
Thirty years since awakening his Innate Wisdom!
Today, the thirtieth ring of the Year Wheel within his Dantian was born.
When the eleventh ring was born, it didn’t continue to expand, but accumulated onto the first ten rings, forming a thicker second layer of the Year Wheel.
At the twenty-first ring, it continued to accumulate into a third layer of the Year Wheel.
Now, the third layer of the Year Wheel had been fully accumulated.
The first layer of the Year Wheel granted the miraculous ability to sense the remaining lifespan of others up close.
The second layer of the Year Wheel possessed the feature of storing infinite vitality.
Now, with the third layer fully formed, the mysterious feeling of the third layer had become completely clear.
It was a power of condensing the Divine Soul,
Li Jizhou slightly released it, instantly feeling a coolness in his Sea of Consciousness, his Divine Sense refined, feeling clearer as a whole.
“I wonder if this could help Yang Yutong who suffered a collapsed Sea of Consciousness due to soul searching?”
Over the past three years, the traces of Ye Jingyu had been constantly updated.
A year ago, Ye Jingyu’s father was captured, torturously tormented, with notices widely spread accusing Ye Jingyu of being ungrateful for not saving his father.
No one stopped this, and it was widely publicized.
Finally, Ye Jingyu really came out from Purple Vine Mountain to save his father. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Ye Jingyu had already advanced to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, with greatly increased strength, managing to counter-kill one while fighting against five Middle Stage Foundation Establishment opponents.
However, ultimately, a Divine Intent Sect Elder arrived, and Ye Jingyu was no match, retreating in embarrassment.
When Li Jizhou saw this news, he sighed inwardly, further strengthening his resolve to prove the ultimate truth, leaving no weak spots.
For someone like him with peerless secrets, especially in this ever-changing, mysterious world of cultivation, no one could guarantee their secret would never be discovered.
And once discovered, anyone emotionally connected to him might be used as leverage.
The latest news on Ye Jingyu was six months ago, chased to Yan Kingdom by a Divine Intent Sect Elder, despairingly dashing into a deadly area, facing life and death.
The more Li Jizhou thought about it, the more he found it puzzling.
Merely a renegade disciple, why was the Divine Intent Sect so relentless in their pursuit?
He was reluctant to speculate on others’ affairs, but Ye Jingyu was connected to the mysterious incidents surrounding the Thunder Spirit Crystal Ore back then,
Moreover, Ye Jingyu lingered several times in the Golden Sun Sect area before escaping Qi Kingdom, surely to find him.
He sensed this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
Now, with Ye Jingyu far in another country, trapped, even facing life and death, without any effective information.
Yang Yutong was the most likely person to obtain information from.
If her Sea of Consciousness could be restored, maybe some information could be discovered.
However, although he had the condensing power of the three-layer Year Wheel, the medical scripture given by Pharmacist Zheng barely introduced soul healing.
Thinking it over, he flew towards Little Turtle Peak.
Three years ago, he reached an agreement with Zhang Ruoyu on co-refining the Lifespan Extension Pill, but now he hadn’t gathered the auxiliary herbs, and needed to inform him, mainly to consult about the treatment of the Sea of Consciousness.
“Elder Zhang is indeed leisurely, planting flowers and herbs, quite enviable.” Upon reaching Little Turtle Peak, a lush scene of plants and herbs greeted him, several times more than on Xiaogang Peak.
And their ages were quite long; some could even be used medicinally.
“Haha, Pill Master Li, you jest. I see your Xiaogang Peak is not lacking either; indeed, we are fated.”
One good thing about Zhang Ruoyu’s place was the perennial presence of two maidservants for reception, slightly bustling, while Li Jizhou’s place remained him, a frog, and a Fire Spirit.
Both were cautious cultivators who practiced Health Cultivation Skill, so they got along with a peaceful mindset.
After discussing the herb preparation matter, Zhang Ruoyu showed no impatience, advising him not to hurry, as he could wait.
Then Li Jizhou timely sought some cultivation insights, mainly for preparating for Core Formation.
This somewhat surprised Zhang Ruoyu.
Given Li Jizhou’s current reputation, using pills for Foundation Establishment, his potential was basically exhausted, yet he still aspired to Core Formation.
Nonetheless, he patiently shared some of his experience.
Finally, Li Jizhou consulted him about treating a collapsed Sea of Consciousness, but Zhang Ruoyu only said that both the Sea of Consciousness and Dantian are the sources of a cultivator, once damaged, hard to heal, needing specific analysis, and he wasn’t confident.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Ruoyu, Li Jizhou flew towards Immortal City, to inquire Steward Chen about the auxiliary herbs for the Lifespan Extension Pill.
“Hahaha~”
On his way, a sudden burst of laughter erupted from the Golden Sun Sect Core Formation dojo.
Immediately, a figure soared on flying light.
“Congratulations, Senior, on your successful Core Formation!” Several Golden Sun Sect disciples inside the dojo all bowed in congratulation.
“Take your rewards!” The figure in the sky laughed heartily, casually tossing several Spirit Stones.
As Li Jizhou just turned to look, that person had already flown towards Immortal City.
Seeing no way to dodge, Li Jizhou stopped, bowing slightly.
“Everyone gets a reward!” Before Li Jizhou could speak, a Spirit Stone was already flying over.
It turned out to be a Middle Grade Spirit Stone.
“Thank you, Senior.” Li Jizhou raised his head to thank, only to recognize the person, surprisingly, it was Duan Tianxing, whom he had met at Hua Yanshi’s residence!
But Duan Tianxing didn’t even glance at him, laughing as he flew towards Immortal City.
“Core Formation, indeed worth celebrating.” Li Jizhou sighed, somewhat envious.
“I wonder what quality of pill he formed?”
Before long, Li Jizhou arrived at Miaodan Tower.
Steward Chen informed him that most of the auxiliary herbs for the Lifespan Extension Pill had been gathered, only three rare ones were missing.
However, he mentioned that recently, an ancient underground medicinal field of the Thunder Flame Sect was unearthed within Inverted Mountain, containing many aged herbs, worth a visit.
Or visit the market near Inverted Mountain, where many loose cultivators, after gaining from Inverted Mountain, would choose to trade locally.
With this news, Li Jizhou didn’t hesitate, heading towards the market at Spirit Pearl Mountain.
First, to try repairing Yang Yutong’s Sea of Consciousness, hoping to uncover some unknown information about Ye Jingyu.
Second, to search for the other three auxiliary herbs at the market.
