Chapter 352
“Finally back.
This time, although the trip was short, it feels like a lifetime ago.”
tan san looked far away at his cave residence, his heart full of emotions.
He had thought that this trip to the Dan Ding Sect’s wonderland would be extremely quick.
After all, there were only three days.
But the various energy traps, the remaining traps, and all kinds of dangers that he could not imagine, had also made him very tired.
Fortunately, everything went well.
He was also a part of it, and reaped great rewards.
Not only did he capture a large amount of loot, but he also obtained countless resources and legacies in the Dandingzong Wonderland.
Even the treasure of the Dandingzong Town, the Creation Cauldron, fell into his hands.
“Unfortunately, the power of this Creation Cauldron is not obvious.
At least it is of little help in improving my offensive methods nowadays.
Of course, the Creation Essence Liquid contained within it can truly be called the supreme treasure.
It is a treasure coveted by countless foundation-stage cultivators and even cultivators at the stage of condensing a dan.
It can save countless laborious cultivation efforts.”
tan san also felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Not to mention the specific power of the fake spirit treasure… Even if it could really be activated, with his current cultivation realm, he estimated that activating it once would be enough to drain him dry.
He had never thought that with his current cultivation realm, he could activate the Creation Cauldron and bring its original power into play.
Perhaps, only when his cultivation realm is raised to the level of a Dan Jie, will he barely be able to exert the power of its ‘one strike’.
But it doesn’t mean that this fake spirit treasure is useless.
Not to mention placing it in the center of one’s vital energy, the Taoist aura naturally exuded by the fake spirit treasure will naturally help his cultivation. The refining and purification of his true energy as it passes through the Creation Cauldron will also make his true energy more refined and powerful.
Not to mention the creation spirit liquid inside the creation cauldron.
Even within the Dan Ding Sect, it can be considered a treasure.
It is estimated that only those cultivators with exceptional talent and those who have made outstanding contributions are likely to be rewarded, and only one drop will be rewarded.
tan san, on the other hand, has seventeen drops in his hands.
Even if he used two drops to forcibly improve his cultivation in the previous battle, he still has fifteen drops left.
In other words, with these fifteen drops of the elixir of life, he could actually directly raise his cultivation base in a very short period of time, to the pinnacle of the ninth level of cultivation.
He could even use this to break through to the formation of an inner alchemical Dan!
“Everything has to wait until I return to the Wufengshan spiritual land and sort through this harvest properly.”
tan san naturally wanted to quickly raise his cultivation base to the ninth level of cultivation, and even leap to the level of formation of an inner alchemical Dan.
However, rashly breaking through in cultivation is never a good thing.
In particular, he knows that there are many obstacles for cultivators at the foundation-building stage to break through to the stage of condensing a dan, and when condensing a dan, there are even distinctions between virtual dan, real dan, and golden dan.
He must consider perfection and condense the highest-grade golden dan as much as possible.
Soon, tan san entered the Wufengshan sacred ground.
He controlled the entire sacred ground’s formations, so naturally, it was very easy for him to enter and exit.
Not to mention, with his current realm of formation techniques, even if he wanted to break open this Great Reversing Five Elements Formation, it would be easy to enter and exit freely without being discovered.
“From my current perspective, the level of this Great Reversing Five Elements Formation is still a bit too low.
There are also many places that can be modified and perfected.
A formation like this is not difficult to block a cultivator at the foundation stage. It is also extremely difficult for three or five cultivators at the foundation stage to easily break through.
However, if a Dan-stage cultivator attacks, it simply cannot hold out for long…“
tan san silently looked at this formation.
With his current cultivation in formation techniques, when he looked at this formation again, naturally he found it so unsatisfactory, and the numerous flaws also made him feel uncomfortable.
After all, this is the location of his own spiritual land, so naturally he wanted to improve it.
”This formation must be changed.
Perhaps, some alterations would be fine.”
tan san pondered silently, and soon made a decision.
Of course, it would take time to re-plan and re-arrange the formation.
Naturally, he was not in a hurry.
Soon, he returned to his own cultivation cave.
He did not alert anyone.
tan san sat cross-legged, and it was only then that he truly let out a sigh of relief.
This time, he had experienced many battles.
He had even killed Ye Yanshu, who he had always regarded as his arch-enemy, and it had caused his state of mind to change quite a bit.
“Next, I will start to properly inventory the gains from this time.”
tan san sat in meditation for a long time, and it wasn’t until he had completely calmed his mind that he took out each storage bag.
There were quite a lot of these storage bags.
There were the belongings of the original Danding Sect cultivators that he had picked up in the Danding Sect’s strange realm, as well as the belongings of the three Wancheng City heroes and Ye Feifan and Ye Yanshu that he had killed, and also that of Liu Gui.
In particular, the three heroes of the Wan’gu City and Ye Feifan and the others, in addition to their own storage bags, they also collected a lot of various storage bags in the Danding Sect Wonderland.
Of course, there are naturally a lot of treasures in the Danding Sect Wonderland, and he has put them in the storage bags that belong to him.
In total, there are more than twenty storage bags in front of him at this time.
Then, tan san began to check these storage bags one by one.
Some of the sealed storage bags, he could just use his spiritual awareness to naturally break them open.
Especially now, his spiritual awareness is already strong enough.
Breaking the seal on the storage bag was naturally very easy.
So after half an hour,
one by one, the storage bags were opened by him.
He opened each one and emptied all the spirit objects inside.
“There is quite a lot of spirit stone powder.
Unfortunately, most of it has been depleted due to the passage of time and is useless.
But…“
tan san picked and chose for a while. While he was disappointed, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Among the spirit stone powders, he found ten spirit stone cores that were still in relatively good condition.
Although these spirit stone cores had no aura at all,
they were originally the real deal, the best spirit stones.
”The best spirit stones can be reused.
Just place them in an aura vein, and after tens or hundreds of years, they will once again accumulate aura and can be used again.
Ten spirit stone cores are ten supreme spirit stones.
Although they cannot be used for the time being, if they are sold, they can be exchanged for tens of millions of inferior spirit stones.”
tan san could not help but smile. He took the ten spirit stone cores and put them away.
Naturally, he had no intention of selling them.
In addition to being able to be reused, supreme spirit stones are also excellent materials for setting up formations.
Even if the aura is completely gone, if it is placed in a large formation and used as a foundation, the natural flow of aura will naturally slowly increase the energy within.
Perhaps after the large formation has been in operation for ten or twenty years, the aura within the best spirit stones will become full again.
It so happened that tan san planned to rearrange the Five Elements Reversal Formation, and these spirit stone cores were excellent materials for the formation.
Only then did he turn his attention to the various other spirit objects.
Apart from the storage bags of the three heroes of Wancheng City and Ye Yanshou and others, which contained treasures such as spirit talismans and elixirs, most of the storage bags obtained within the wonders of the Danding Sect had also lost their effects, even though they contained similar items.
Among them, tan san even found more than one third-grade elixir.
Unfortunately, after a long period of time, even the most miraculous elixir has lost its spiritual effect and turned into a pile of rotten mud.
Even if it is perfectly preserved, there is still a faint aura and fragrance emanating from it… tan san dares not try using it at all.
Elixirs also have a shelf life.
Just like the Creation Pills they had previously harvested, even though they were overflowing with treasure light, surrounded by a rich aura of creation, and full of the fragrance of the pill, he was not the least bit interested.
Apart from the fact that this elixir had been around for too long, and he couldn’t tell whether it was really the legendary Creation Pill, and because it had been formed too long ago, he ultimately didn’t dare to try it lightly for the sake of his own path.
“Therefore, although some of these elixirs are not weak in spiritual energy and their quality does not seem to have been affected too much, they are still just waste and residue and must be disposed of,”
tan san thought to himself, and directly used the Southern Ming Li Fire to incinerate them cleanly.
Finally, there were magic weapons and treasure weapons.
There were the most of these.
Moreover, because they were stored in the storage bag, they were still in relatively good condition, and even though their spiritual energy was weak, most of them could be used again.
It was just that their power was slightly weaker than that of ordinary magic weapons and treasure weapons because they had not been tempered with spiritual energy for a long time.
Of course, if they were tempered properly or repaired, their power could naturally be restored.
“Seven hundred magic weapons and fifty treasure weapons.
Most of the treasures are of the lower and middle ranks, but they are still worth a lot when added together.
What’s more, there are ten flying swords among them, which happen to be just enough to make up for the gap in my previous flying sword that shattered. They can be reassembled and incorporated into the sword formation.”
tan san looked at these flying swords of treasures and a trace of satisfaction could not help but appear on his face.
His demand for flying swords is huge.
He had encountered strong enemies in the previous consecutive battles.
Although he was the one who won in the end, he also lost several flying swords as a result.
If he can now replenish his flying swords with these ten treasure flying swords, not only will the overall strength of his flying swords increase significantly, but their power will naturally increase substantially as well.
It will also be able to make up for the shortcomings of his flying sword formation.
“The 42 Flying Swords Formation can form a sword domain, and cultivators within the sword domain will have their strength reduced by 30% even if they are at 100%.
The reason why Ye Yanxiu couldn’t escape in time before was that he was trapped in my sword domain and couldn’t break free for a while.“
tan san muttered to himself, and naturally, he placed even more importance on this sword formation method.
”And the most important thing is that
up to now, I have been able to break through and reach the seventh level of cultivation.
Naturally, the strength of my spiritual awareness has also increased substantially.
At this time, I already feel somewhat relaxed when I use this 42 Flying Sky Sword Formation.
It is also time to start considering practicing the 48 Flying Swords Formation, or even the 54 Flying Swords Formation.”
tan san had sensed this when he previously performed the 42 Flying Swords Formation.
It was effortless and natural.
He even had a feeling that if he wanted, he could directly control the 48 flying swords and perform the 48 Flying Swords Formation.
It was just that there were not enough flying swords.
Moreover, he knew very well that even if he could use the 48 Flying Swords Formation, it was only the introductory level, and its power was actually very limited.
It was even far inferior to the advanced level 42 Flying Swords Formation.
Therefore, he suppressed this idea at the time, and it was only with the help of the 42 Flying Swords Formation that Ye Yanshu was trapped, so that the opponent could not avoid it and could only wait for death with his hands tied.
“Therefore, I still have to continue to practice the sword formation method.
The 42 Flying Swords Formation allows me to form the rudiments of a sword domain, which reduces the enemy’s strength by 30%.
If I can fully form a sword domain, my strength will be reduced by at least 50%, or even more.
Naturally, I will be invincible when fighting my enemies.”
tan san was very clear in his mind.
He also planned that in the next period of time, he must continue to practice and improve this sword formation method as soon as possible, so that it can reach the level of the 48, 54, or even 60 Flying Swords Formation.
As for training it to the perfection of the 72 Flying Sword Formation?
Of course he wants to.
But he also knows that this is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time.
Practice and cultivation must always be done step by step.
After all, natural treasures such as the Divine Elixir are extremely rare.
And the methods of attack are even more different.
They must be cultivated and improved step by step.
Even if someone is a peerless genius, it is only because they have a high level of understanding, a stronger mindset, and a closer connection to the Dao that they can shorten the corresponding cultivation time.
But it is definitely not comparable to tan san having an attribute panel.
Even for him, he can only take one step at a time, from beginner to proficient, from proficient to small success, and then from small success to great success, until the ultimate perfection…
“Next, it’s the magic weapon!”
Immediately afterwards, a glimmer of light flashed in tan san’s eyes.
This time, tan san himself had also gained quite a few magic weapons in the strange realm of the Danding Sect.
In addition to the Seal of the Earth obtained in the cave of the Hundred Flowers True Person, there was also the Golden Bell magic weapon that could automatically protect its owner.
In addition, there was also the alchemy furnace in the Yuxu Hall.
Although there was no aura visible on it, he guessed that it should also be a magic weapon-level alchemy furnace.
It was just that his spiritual awareness was not strong enough to refine it, so naturally he was unable to truly use this alchemy furnace to bring its superlative functions into play.
“Then there is the Creation Cauldron that Heng Heng placed on top of the Demon Tower!
This is a pseudo-spirit treasure.
It is truly a supreme treasure that is above magic weapons.
It is the object of every Xuan Ying realm cultivator’s dreams.”
tan san’s mind twitched, and the small crystal clear, translucent cauldron that emitted a bright, glowing aura reappeared.
Three magic weapons, one fake spirit treasure!
This alone was already a huge gain.
Not to mention
the fact that he had also obtained two magic weapons from the storage bags of the three Wancheng City heroes, Ye Feifan, Ye Yanshu, and Liu Gui.
