My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me
Chapter 520 - 34: Sacrificial Refining TechniqueYang Jing sat cross-legged on the Meditation Cushion, placing the Iron Embryo Gourd before him.
In terms of rank, the Innate Pure Yang Qi surpassed even the Magical Power of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator. It was only because it was unguided and lacked a Spiritual Sense of its own that the Moon Demon King had been able to restrain it and collect it within this rare Gourd Treasure.
This Qi was a perfect match for his True Yang Body.
If Yang Jing were willing to abandon his Cultivation in the Tai Shi Five Elements True Talisman Scripture, he could rely on this gourd of Innate Pure Yang Qi to advance his True Yang Body’s Cultivation to the Nascent Soul Stage within a couple of decades. When that time came, a single display of his True Body would reveal a form over a hundred feet tall. An ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator would be no match for him at all; he could crush them with ease.
However, were he to do so, the majority of his Divine Techniques and Magic would become useless, and his chances of advancing to the Divinity Transformation stage would be drastically reduced.
Yang Jing was far-sighted and would naturally not commit such a foolish act.
He only wanted to use the Innate Pure Yang Qi from the gourd to refine his Magic.
A treasure like Innate Pure Yang Qi was incredibly rare and possessed unimaginable power. Not only could it be refined into one’s Magical Power to raise their Cultivation, but it could also be used to temper Magical Treasures and refine Divine Techniques and Magic.
However, doing so was extremely extravagant.
This was because Divine Techniques, Magic, and Magical Treasures usually didn’t help one break through to the next Realm, and there were many other Techniques to refine them. Moreover, after a Cultivator reached the Golden Core Stage, the types of Spirit Pills needed to advance their Cultivation became increasingly rare. The Elixir Poison from these pills was also difficult to expel, posing a major hidden danger during the formation of the Nascent Soul.
But cultivating by refining Innate Pure Yang Qi with Magical Power not only avoided the problem of Elixir Poison, but also tempered one’s Magical Power to an even greater purity, increasing the chances of forming a Nascent Soul.
If possible, Yang Jing would have naturally preferred to leave more of the Innate Pure Yang Qi for his disciples. However, Iron Head and Yinjiao were only in the Foundation Establishment Stage and were completely incapable of refining such an exceptionally high-quality treasure of heaven and earth.
But the current treacherous situation in the Jade Poison Kingdom had made him decide to take a portion of the Innate Pure Yang Qi to refine his Magic. By leveraging the Innate Pure Yang Qi’s essence, which surpassed even the Divinity Transformation Realm, he might be able to cross the insurmountable chasm between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages. It might allow him to last a few rounds against a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
He had already chosen the Magic he would refine. His other spells either contained attributes of both Yin and Yang or were unsuitable for use underwater. Only the Innate Five Elements Grand Capture, which was derived from the Pure Yang Qi Grand Capture, was a perfect fit for the Innate Pure Yang Qi.
This Magic was one he had created himself by combining various techniques for the dual cultivation of his Dharma Body and physical body. After refining it with Innate Pure Yang Qi, its power might just exceed his wildest imagination.
Having made his decision, Yang Jing decisively channeled his Magical Power into the Iron Embryo Gourd before him, drawing out a sliver of Innate Pure Yang Qi to temper his palm.
The agony of tempering his palm with Innate Pure Yang Qi surpassed even the pain of breaking through the True Body Barrier. Even with his resilient Dao heart, Yang Jing’s brow furrowed tightly from the pain.
After a long while, he slowly let out a breath. Refining Magic with Innate Pure Yang Qi placed an even greater strain on his physical body than directly refining the Qi itself. If not for the fact that he had already refined some Innate Pure Yang Qi into his body, it would have been impossible to complete the process so easily.
"HAH!"
Yang Jing let out a low shout, and a giant hand radiating Five-Colored Divine Light rose into the air. Compared to before, this hand, formed of Magical Power, now possessed an awe-inspiring, scorching Yang Qi, and its power had increased dramatically.
Since he was in his Inner World, he didn’t dare practice the technique too much for fear of causing instability. He simply shifted to the Yin Qi World and had the Wanhua Child summon a few Great Demons to test its power.
These Great Demons, who were practically the natural enemies of Cultivators, were instantly and completely refined with a single grasp of the Five Elements Hand, leaving not a single trace of Demonic Qi in the Yin Qi World.
’This Innate Pure Yang Qi is truly the bane of these Celestial Demons. Even if a Demon King possessed a Celestial Demon and descended into the world in response to a summons, it still wouldn’t be able to withstand my Innate Five Elements Grand Capture.’
Yang Jing slowly exhaled, his heart at ease.
If his opponent were the Moon Demon King, he could contend with it relying solely on this Innate Five Elements Grand Capture. After all, the gourd of Innate Pure Yang Qi had been collected by the Moon Demon King over ten thousand years; in essence, it was the ultimate counter to the purely yin Moon Demon.
But if he wanted to contend with Danxia True Monarch and the Jade Poison Great Saint, it was still not quite enough.
The moment the Innate Five Elements Grand Capture flew out, the Wanhua Child had dived straight into the body of the Demon-Catching Tripod. Even though he was Yang Jing’s Magical Treasure, just getting close to the Five Elements Hand made him feel an excruciating, needle-like pain all over his body.
Yang Jing’s figure flashed, and he reappeared on the ground. He once again drew out a sliver of Innate Pure Yang Qi from the Iron Embryo Gourd to refine his palm.
When he had finished the refining process, Yinjiao came forward, holding a jug of water from the Spiritual Spring. Yang Jing took the jug and drank it in one gulp, using the cool spring water to soothe the scorching heat generated by refining the Magic.
"Master, are you planning to save the Little Crown Prince Si?"
Yinjiao asked.
He had once transformed into the guise of a Snake Demon to deal with the soldiers and maids who had come to visit, so he had a very good understanding of the relationship between Yang Jing and Si Taizhen.
After all their years together, Yinjiao knew that if his master had wanted to leave, he would have done so long ago instead of choosing to hide deep underground to refine his Magic.
Yang Jing shot Yinjiao a sideways glance.
"If that Si Taizhen has the will to save herself, I might just try to pull the chestnuts from the fire and see if I can’t get you all a new junior brother. But if she just resigns herself to fate, then we’ll wait for this to blow over and head directly to the Central Province."
-----------------
The Jade Poison Kingdom’s fortune had endured for tens of thousands of years. Relying on its geographical advantages and the legacy of its ancestors, although it had occasionally been forced on the defensive, its Capital had never been breached.
After tens of thousands of years of accumulation, the Jade Poison Great Saint’s palace was magnificent and resplendent. Within its treasury, Spirit Jade Treasure Pearls were piled up like mountains, and it was guarded by a Tier Five Grand Array, making it impregnable.
Si Taizhen glanced at the Heavy Numbered Generals surrounding her, who looked as though they were facing a formidable enemy, and a flash of contempt crossed her face.
She faced the magnificent palace pavilions, which were shrouded in a brilliant, radiant light, with a mocking expression.
"Father, I have arrived. Why have you not come out to see me?"
Above the palace, the clouds roiled, and faint, snake-shaped vapors began to envelop the entire palace complex. The Jade Poison Great Saint had silently activated the Heavenly Snake Spirit Suppression Array that guarded the Capital.
"It seems you already know something."
The shadow of a giant snake flashed and then vanished into nothingness. This didn’t mean the Heavenly Snake Spirit Suppression Array had been deactivated; on the contrary, the Grand Array’s isolating and concealing effects had been pushed to their absolute limit.
Once this Array Formation was active, the world could be turned upside down within, but everything would remain calm and peaceful on the outside.
With a swirl of clouds, the figure of the Jade Poison Great Saint appeared on the steps before the main hall.
This renowned Great Saint of the Demon Race looked nothing like his fierce, demonic reputation suggested. He was a dashing, elegant middle-aged man wearing a Golden Crown, his eyes gentle, with a neatly-trimmed short beard.
He wore a stately black robe embroidered with nine entwined snakes and stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze falling upon Si Taizhen.
"It seems you’ve known for a while, my dear child. Since that is the case, did you develop feelings for that lowly Snake Demon just to deliberately ruin your father’s great plans?!"
