Sovereign To Immortality Chapter 88 - Immortal Roo

t
The pent-up earth power contained within the amylopyrite could be directly refined and used by Yang Junshan, and the effect of cultivating it was comparable to consuming medicinal pellets to cultivate. But the pellet had three poisons, and no matter how high the alchemist was, it was impossible for them to expel all of the medicinal pellet's deposited poison. Thus, while enjoying the pleasure of the pellet's cultivation greatly rising, they would also need to spend an endless amount of time to refine and expel the pill's poison.

Normally speaking, every time one consumed a medicinal pill that corresponded to one's cultivation level, one would need at least three days to refine the pill's poison. In this way, one would normally need four days to consume a medicinal pill, and if one consumed another medicinal pill during these four days, causing the pill's poison to acc.u.mulate, it would not be a simple matter of one plus one. At the very least, it would take half a month or so to completely expel the pill's poison.

Four days was merely the minimum amount of time. In fact, even if Yang Junshan had sufficient pills, he would need to spend at least five days to consume a single pill.

Refining amylopyrite, on the other hand, had no such restrictions. As long as the amylopyrite was sufficient, he could continue to refine them until his cultivation level increased to the point where the vitality stored within the amylopyrite was no longer sufficient to raise his cultivation level.

In the mines, one amylopyrite could roughly support Yang Junshan's cultivation for one and a half days to two days, and after returning to his uncle Han Xiusheng's home, Yang Junshan closed up and cultivated regardless of whether it was day or night, he would almost need to refine one amylopyrite every day. When the seven amylopyrite in his hands were completely refined, his Bone Marrow Spirit Aperture had finally reached the perfect realm.

At this time, compared to the few other people of the same age in Tuqiu Village, the time it took Yang Junshan to reach the perfection of the third stage was around eight to nine months late.

Logically speaking, at this time, Yang Junshan should already be considered to have truly reached the perfect state for the third stage of the Mortal Realm, but seeing everything that was happening inside the Spirit Aperture, even Yang Junshan himself was not sure whether he should be considered to be in the perfect state for the Spirit Aperture, or if he had already stepped into the fourth stage of the Mortal Realm.

Ever since Yang Junshan started cultivating the six viscera brocade, perhaps it was because of the fact that there were spirit cavities in the organs, which made him the first to successfully sense them.

Amongst Yang Junshan's three great spirit cavities, the gallbladder spirit cavities were the first to reach the stage of perfection. As Yang Junshan was still working hard to absorb the rich earth spirit energy and pour it into the bone marrow spirit cavities, the spirit cavities began to gradually become denser and more solidified. In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, Yang Junshan's spirit cavities had already stepped into the realm of laying down the Immortal Foundation.

Normally in the process of cultivation, cultivators would only start to step into the fourth layer at the same time when all of the immortal spiritual cavities in their body had reached the level of perfection, and then set up their immortal roots at the same time. However, for the three immortal spiritual cavities in Yang Junshan's body, since the bone marrow and spiritual cavities were not yet complete, the spirit cavities had already entered the fourth layer first.

Furthermore, perhaps it was because of the fact that the spirit cavities were the first to enter the Immortal Foundation Establishment stage, Yang Junshan did not encounter any bottleneck during his next breakthrough to the fourth stage. Normally, when cultivators were trying to break through to the fourth stage of the Immortal Foundation, they would have to spend three to five months of time to acc.u.mulate and nourish them.

However, the process of Yang Junshan's advancement seemed to be natural, it started with the Gallbladder Divine Spirit Aperture first, followed closely by the vertebra Divine Spirit Aperture, and when the bone marrow also started to gradually solidify, Yang Junshan had no choice but to temporarily slow down his cultivation progress.

This was because not only was the amylopyrite in his possession completely used up, he had also finished refining the few Cloud Pills that he had left, and the process of laying down the Immortal Foundation was originally a process of wantonly absorbing spirit energy. In other words, once he broke through the bottleneck of the fourth level, the remaining thing he needed to do was to purely acc.u.mulate spirit energy, to catalyze the formation of the Immortal Foundation. The speed of his cultivation would depend on the amount of spirit energy a cultivator could absorb into their body.

At this time, only a month had pa.s.sed since the strike at Green Tree Village. In order to provide sufficient spirit energy for the Immortal Foundation to be solidified and speed up the pace of cultivation, Yang Junshan had no choice but to enter the Green Tree Village's mining cave to uncover the amylopyrite.

Other than Yang Junshan who frequently complained that it was getting harder and harder to do work on the mine, the other situations seemed to be changing for the better. Furthermore, many other miners from the other villages were here as well.

At first, the clay mines of the Green Tree Village did not prohibit miners from entering. However, the last time was because Hu Diechang and his men had gone overboard and tried to change all the miners from the clay mines to outsiders. This caused a strong reaction from the villagers.

Now that Green Tree Village had been reorganized and the atmosphere in the mines cleared, the miners could earn more. Naturally, there were more miners who were willing to join.

However, this way, Yang Junshan would have trouble digging the amylopyrite. Because the new miners were not familiar with the situation of the mines, there were many people who came to the tunnels where the mines were depleted, causing Yang Junshan to have to be even more careful.

In fact, in his previous life, amylopyrite were first discovered, and because some miners were not familiar with the situation, they found something unexpected when they randomly excavated. After that news was gradually transmitted, the situation slowly progressed to an uncontrollable state.

Aside from secretly digging out amylopyrite s, Yang Junshan spent the last few days in the mines, trying his best to cultivate. Because of the treatment on the mines, it was now even more impossible to bring the amylopyrite out, so he had no choice but to bury the eleven amylopyrithat he had dug out at the bottom of the mines again.

In fact, in these few days, because there were countless miners that came to look for the mines, Yang Junshan's cultivation had no choice but to become intermittent. The only good news was that after seeing Yang Junshan going down the mines, the Chu Chuang brothers had left him another copy of the carefully chosen ore.

"Young Master Yang, please forgive me, it's not easy to cultivate in this world, these people following Old Chu are all bitter and hha brothers. Previously, in order to win over me and risk my life to fight against a Martial Realm Cultivator like Hu Siping, in order to filter out more good mines for these brothers, without Young Master's permission, I pa.s.sed on the method you gave us brothers before, it's really a sin."

Seeing Chu Chuang's guilty expression, Yang Junshan laughed and said: "Brother Chu, you and I are still brothers, I am only the son of the Village Head, and do not deserve to be addressed as young master. The methods to filter out the ores are yours, as for who you want to pa.s.s it to, it's up to you guys."

Chu Chuang was overjoyed when he heard it, and said: "Yang Xiao, haha, Brother Yang is indeed magnanimous, we, Old Chu, owe you a favor. Hehe, in the next few days, you no longer need to dig more, you just need to guide us to mine, and we will leave the best ores that we have dug for you in Old Chu."

Yang Junshan had already dug out more than twenty amylopyrite in this tunnel. In his previous life, he had dug ouotal of fifty amylopyrite from two of the tunnels in the Green Tree Village, and he had almost dug out all of the amylopyrite in this tunnel. Recently, Yang Junshan had been digging in this tunnel for an entire day but he hadn't found a single one.

"According to the memories of my past life, among these two mines, there werotal of three Wutu Essence Stones. One of them was dug out, while the other two were dug out." According to the memories of my past life, there were a total of three Wutu Essence Stones.

The Wutu Earth Essence Stone wareasure that was even more pure and vigorous than the Wutu Earth Essence that was condensed by the amylopyrite. If the amylopyrite s could be said to have a great benefit to the cultivation of the Mortal Realm cultivators, then the Wutu Essence Stone was of the same use to the cultivation of the Martial Realm Cultivator.

However, this was not the most important thing. The true value of the Wutu Essence Stone was that it was extremely useful to cultivators in breaking through the shackles of the fifth stage of Mortal Realm, opening their dantian and advancing their martial arts realm. Not only that, it was also very useful to Martial Realm Cultivator in breaking through the bottlenecks of the early and middle stages of Mortal Realm.

Amongst the thousands of people in a village, there were only about a few hundred who could start their journey of cultivation. Amongst these few hundred people, there were only two or three who could advance to the martial arts realm, but the proportion of people stuck at the fifth level of the Mortal Realm would often reach a quarter or even a third of the number of people in the village.

From this, it could be seen just how importanreasure was to those cultivators in the fifth floor of the Mortal Realm. Breaking through this barrier not only implied an increase in strength, status, and wealth, but also meant that one would be able to obtain a longer lifespan and a higher possibility to do so. Furthermore, this treasure also had a positive effect on breaking through in the cultivation of cultivators in the early stages of the martial arts realm!

Although the Wutu Earth Essence Stone was formed from the essence of the earth, and could only help cultivators who cultivated earth-attributed techniques to break through, under the control of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the number of people who trained earth-attributed techniques were the most in the Yuxian.

It was precisely because of the appearance of the Wutu Earth Essence Stone that caused the originally compet.i.tion for the amylopyrite to intensify, and upon hearing the news, the Martial Realm Cultivatohat had rushed over immediately joined the compet.i.tion without hesitation, while those cultivators at the fifth level of Mortal Realm also risked their lives in order to advance into the martial arts realm, causing more and more Martial Realm Cultivator s to rush over, and the battle quickly became a ma.s.sacre of Mortal Realm cultivators.

However, after the battle, the various factions in the Mengyu County quickly stepped in and took control of the entire mine, but they did not manage to excavate even a single Wutu Earth Essence Stone, even the most ordinary amylopyritad been dug up. From the start of the two mines, there were only three Wutu Earth Essence Stones left.

Yang Junshan had already dug deep enough into the mine, but not only was he unable to find the legendary Wutu Essence Stone, even the ordinary amylopyrite had not been able to find a single one. This made Yang Junshan a little discouraged.

Could it be that he had heard the wrong news in his previous life, that there was no Wutu Earth Essence Stone in this tunnel?

Yang Junshan swung his hoe down, and with a "pu" sound, the hoe was completely submerged within the ore. Yang Junshan was slightly startled, subconsciously, he used his strength to pry open his hand. A huge piece of rock cracked open, and a three feet large natural stone cave appeared behind it.
