Chapter 402: The Soul-Calming Artifact
Wu Yan learned that the restriction in Ji Guitian's Dantian was not caused by persecution, and his cultivation was not wasted by malicious intent, but was caused by the accumulation of demon poison and magic poison in his body.
No wonder after giving the old man the spiritual water, he saw from the spoonful that Ji Guitian might be saved.
If the old man could take and refine the Yuehua Spiritual Liquid, the efficacy of the Yuehua Spiritual Liquid could indeed slowly wash away the hundreds of demon poisons and magic poisons accumulated in his body.
The alchemist who helped Ji Guitian seal the demon poison and magic poison at the beginning probably didn't expect that the restriction originally intended to prevent the demon poison and magic poison from invading Ji Guitian's Dantian would result in all the demon poison and magic poison gathering in his Dantian. However, this blessing and disaster is unpredictable. Although his golden elixir was destroyed and his cultivation was completely wasted, his body was fine.
However, it is probably not easy to completely wash away the demon poison and devil poison in Ji Guitian's dantian. Because Ji Guitian's current body can't bear the spiritual power of Yuehua Spiritual Liquid, let alone absorb the spiritual power of the spiritual liquid into the dantian to wash away the demon poison and devil poison.
For the time being, he can only take the spiritual water diluted with Yuehua Spiritual Liquid to slowly restore his body, and then slowly find a way to refine the spiritual liquid. However, Wu Yan's Yuehua Spiritual Liquid is not much, and the Tiandi Honglu can't be taken out to collect the spiritual liquid, which is a big trouble.
During this period, Wu Yan has tried various methods to explore why Tiandi Honglu has such a change, but unfortunately all failed.
Wu Yan guessed that the reason for the change in Tiandi Honglu was the Kunpeng vision that appeared when he condensed the demon seed. Therefore, in order to thoroughly understand why Tiandi Honglu has such a change, perhaps only by comprehending a certain state of mind of the Yuanshen can it be done.
Wu Yan guessed that this Tiandi Honglu is very likely to be a strange treasure related to the Yuanshen.
Wu Yan had read some records about the period after the transformation of the spirit in the notes of Qingniu Zhenren.
It is said that after a cultivator reaches the stage of transformation of the spirit and comprehends a unique state of mind, he can absorb the essence of heaven and earth with the power of his mind and condense a spiritual instrument.
This spiritual instrument is different from the magic weapon condensed by the cultivator. This artifact is purely condensed by soul power and the essence of heaven and earth. At first, it is tangible and intangible, existing in the sea of consciousness, used to suppress the realm of the cultivator's spiritual state and help the cultivator condense and absorb the essence of heaven and earth.
When a cultivator reaches the stage of transformation of the spirit, he can no longer improve his cultivation by absorbing the ordinary spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the world of cultivation. Only the essence of heaven and earth can supply cultivators above the stage of transformation of the spirit to continue to cultivate, otherwise their realm will only stop. Even if the essence of heaven and earth is insufficient, the cultivators in the stage of transformation of the spirit will never dare to take action easily.
Because, once he makes a move, if there is no replenishment of heaven and earth energy, the energy consumed will not be able to recover for a long time, and there is even a danger of falling from the realm.
With this soul artifact, that is, the soul-suppressing artifact, the cultivators of the Transformation Stage no longer have to worry about this problem. They can communicate with heaven and earth through the soul-suppressing artifact, and slowly absorb the energy floating between heaven and earth with the soul-suppressing artifact to supply them to continue practicing.
However, it is too difficult for the cultivators of the Transformation Stage in the lower realm to condense this soul-suppressing artifact.
Because the heaven and earth energy in the lower realm is pitifully scarce, and the way and place of its existence are not only unpredictable, but also scattered to an outrageous degree.
The heaven and earth energy is not the energy that the lower realm should have. It is an anomaly that the lower realm can have a little bit of it. However, the heaven and earth energy required to condense the soul-suppressing artifact is so huge that it makes the cultivators stunned. Naturally, condensing a soul-suppressing artifact has long become the most urgent thing for all the cultivators of the Transformation Stage in the lower realm to do.
Unfortunately, there are almost no cultivators in the lower realm who can really possess the soul-soothing artifact. Even the Qingniu Zhenren back then did not have the opportunity to condense a soul-soothing artifact before ascending to the upper realm.
And the treasure he missed so much was actually a pocket-shaped soul-soothing artifact. He made so many Qingniu bags in the past because he wanted to imitate the style of this artifact and refine one.
Unfortunately, the soul-soothing artifact is purely condensed by the cultivator's divine power and the vitality of heaven and earth. It is not a materialized treasure at the beginning of condensation. If you want to make this soul-soothing artifact from virtual to real, it is obviously not all the abilities of the cultivators in the God-soothing stage.
According to Qingniu Zhenren, the pocket-shaped soul-soothing artifact back then has become a materialized treasure. He guessed that this treasure must have been passed down from the upper realm. Because this kind of soul-soothing artifact that can be transformed from virtual to real is impossible to condense in the lower realm.
Although he knew that everything was just wishful thinking, he still imitated the style of that artifact and refined a large number of Qingniu bags, hoping that through these imitation bag-shaped magic weapons, he could simulate a bit of the charm, so that he could understand the artistic conception of the pocket-shaped soul-soothing artifact, and then find a way to condense this soul-soothing artifact.
Because there was no way in the lower realm to condense the soul-soothing artifact at all. The cultivators in the God-Transforming Stage could only try to condense a bit based on the few words left by their predecessors and their own understanding.
After seeing these notes recorded by Qingniu Zhenren, Wu Yan guessed that the Tiandihonglu in his sea of consciousness was most likely a soul-soothing artifact that had successfully turned from virtual to real, otherwise, this furnace would never have been able to enter his sea of consciousness.
However, he knew very little about the Soul-Calming Artifact. If it weren't for the notes of Qingniu Zhenren, he might not even know what the Soul-Calming Artifact was.
However, Wu Yan believed that the Greedy Wolf King and the Purple Dragon King must know the existence of the Soul-Calming Artifact. After all, they were great monsters from the upper realm.
However, Wu Yan remembered that when the Heaven and Earth Furnace was mentioned, the Greedy Wolf King was always evasive and unwilling to tell him the truth. This made Wu Yan helpless.
According to the notes left by Qingniu Zhenren, Wu Yan guessed that if he wanted to activate the Soul-Calming Artifact, he might not need a high level of mana, but the realm of the soul and consciousness cultivation must reach the stage of transformation.
And if the realm of consciousness cultivation wants to reach the stage of transformation, he must comprehend his own unique soul realm.
Therefore, for Wu Yan, if he wants to thoroughly understand the secret of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, he must comprehend the soul realm.
Wu Yan did not neglect his cultivation during this period. On the contrary, he practiced hard every day. If it weren't for the fact that this sea hunting war was too important to him, or more precisely, the first prize "Zhutian Great Movement Order" was too important to him, he would not even plan to participate in the war, but choose to find a secret place to practice until he comprehended the spirit realm.
But now thinking about these things is obviously meaningless. He has never been a person who drags his feet. Since he is destined to participate in this war, he will do his best to prepare. At most, he will work harder, compress the rest time to the shortest every day, and use all the rest of the time to practice and prepare for the sea hunting war.
Keeping the grandparents and grandchildren of the Ji family by his side will have a hundred benefits and no harm for the sea hunting war. However, to keep the grandparents and grandchildren, he has to find a way to cure the demon poison in Ji Guitian's body. This requires a lot of Yuehua Spirit Liquid.
For the time being, this is an unsolvable problem. Wu Yan cannot take out the Tiandi Honglu for a while, so he can't collect more Yuehua Spirit Liquid. Everything depends on luck.
Fortunately, although Ji Guitian's cultivation was completely wasted, his soul was still quite powerful, and his lifespan was still equivalent to that of a Jindan-stage cultivator. The only regret was that even if he kept taking some kind of tonic pills and spiritual water, his body was still drying up and aging rapidly, unless he could recover his cultivation.
This meeting was only more than ten days after the last time, but Ji Guitian looked much older than last time. This visible aging made Wu Yan fully appreciate the cruelty and horror of a cultivator after losing his cultivation.
After settling the two grandparents of the Ji family, Wu Yan lived a very regular life every day.
During the day, he went to the main hall of the Hunting Sea Lecture Hall to listen to Liu Qingyun's lectures on the remaining Hunting Sea courses, and the rest of the time was used for cultivation. Occasionally, he would take time to ask Ji Guitian about hunting sea beasts. Ji Guitian was grateful for Wu Yan's shelter, and naturally told him everything he knew.
Nearly half a month passed in a hurry. This day was the last test of the Hunting Sea course. The content of the assessment was not as intense and exciting as the first one. The content of this assessment was only related to what he had learned in the past half month.
Fortunately, Wu Yan studied the books written by Liu Qingyun with great effort and the content taught in his class very carefully. Therefore, he successfully got full marks in the second assessment.
Of course, he was not the only one who got full marks. In fact, most people who listened to Liu Qingyun's courses attentively got full marks. At least, all the thirty young monks on the list of genius monks got full marks.
However, the sum of the two scores is the total score of the first level of the assessment. Unsurprisingly, the first place is naturally Wu Yan. The ranking order of the others did not change much from the order of the list listed when the yellow list was released for the first time. The only exception was Tang Huang. Although he was unable to participate in the course training in the second half of the month, he still submitted the answer sheet and got full marks, which made his score reach the qualified level.
For such a result, the other team leaders seemed to have guessed it long ago and did not show much emotion.
After getting the first place in the first level assessment, each commander also recorded this content in his sea hunting order. The sea hunting course was officially over.
On the day when the sea hunting course ended, Wu Yan was invited by Liu Qingyun to go to the second floor of the sea hunting lecture hall. This made all the team commanders jealous.
It is said that the second floor contains the most detailed sea map within tens of millions of miles of the entire Demon Sea.
Wu Yan stayed on the second floor for half a day. When he came out, Wu Yan had a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot from this trip.
