Dream Illusion Stone and Jade Talisman

Lu Qingfeng nodded slightly after hearing this.

If he were in charge of the Mystic Origin Sect, he would also choose this approach.

"But."

"I can stockpile some Soul-Swaying Stone in the future. Not only will I be able to use them, but Qingshan and Qingyu can also use Soul-Swaying Stone to quickly cross the Divine Silence Realm."

The Divine Silence Realm is the process of strengthening the Heart Demon. Only with a strong divine soul can it Fusion with True Essence, enter the Fusion Realm, and then, with spirit and qi in harmony, advance to the Core Formation Realm.

Similar to the Heart Movement Realm, the Divine Silence Realm also emphasizes the cultivation of one's mind. During this process, the spirit sometimes becomes strong and sometimes weak, requiring calm cultivation or the search for elixirs to nourish and strengthen the spirit.

This process varies from person to person and can be long or short.

Or one can slowly accumulate, spend time and endure hardship, and improve through persistent effort, thus achieving Divine Silence and perfection.

Or perhaps there are geniuses of extraordinary talent who, through a sudden Sudden Enlightenment inspired by the heavens and the earth, can greatly enhance their spiritual power.

Finally, one can use elixirs or spiritual objects such as Soul-Swaying Stone to directly strengthen the soul.

In the early stages of the game, Lu Qingfeng consistently used the first method—

Hard work.

Then you become proficient.

A realm of understanding far surpassing the state of Divine Silence belongs to the second type—

He often has insights, and his spiritual growth is extremely rapid.

As for elixirs and miraculous medicines, they are only for supplementary use.

With Lu Qingfeng's accumulated experience and the aid of the Soul-Swaying Stone, the time it takes to cross the Divine Silence Realm can be shortened even further. The path of cultivation is a struggle against fate; a single step faster can mean the difference between Changsheng and death.

Of course, one must make every possible preparation.

He chatted with Yan Pingshu all the way, mostly about the battle between the Mystic Origin Sect and the White Bone Demon Sect.

The battle is at a stalemate.

The two Core Formation True Person have made several moves, but they have both exercised restraint and are still testing each other.

It was mostly infighting among the disciples.

Or it could be used to suppress a region and defend against foreign enemies.

Or they could infiltrate enemy territory to harass and sabotage.

It was quite a lively back-and-forth exchange.

The battles among Core Formation True Person mostly take place in strategic locations, such as the Fire Spirit Shell Grounds and the Soul-Swaying Mountain.

"Speaking of which, in the Black Death Marsh near the south of the White Bone Realm, some cultivators claim to have seen Black Death Spirit Shell with two arms and two legs. Many people speculate that these are likely spirit shells that have lived for countless years and have become sentient, transforming into spirits that can be called 'Immortal Shell'. The spirit Spirit Pearl nurtured within them can also be called Immortal Spirit Pearl."

"Once refined, Core Formation True Person can make great progress in their cultivation, and even break through bottlenecks."

"The sects have already sent people to investigate, and even Heavenly Wander Mountain has sent experts. If there really are immortal Immortal Shell, it will likely cause a fierce battle among the three sects."

Yan Pingshu introduced the situation of the two sects and various major events.

The news of the appearance of 'Immortal Shell' in the Black Death Marsh was the most explosive, and even Lu Qingfeng was shocked.

"If there really is Immortal Shell, and we seize the Immortal Spirit Pearl, our sect might even have a chance to gain another True Person at the Spell Gathering Realm."

Yan Pingshu's tone was undulating, and he was somewhat agitated.

Only.

Even if he advanced to the Fusion Realm, he wouldn't be able to interfere in the competition for such treasures. Only those at the True Person level are qualified to compete for them.

"The Immortal Spirit Pearl".

Lu Qingfeng pondered.

He immediately shook his head.

With his current strength, although he could contend with Core Formation True Person, he had no chance of seizing the Immortal Spirit Pearl. In fact, he might offend various True Person and lose his lofty status.

Even if one obtains the Immortal Spirit Pearl, it will take a hundred years or more to benefit from it.

To obtain resources for cultivation a hundred years from now, he destroyed his hard-won identity as the "Rogue Person Blazing Fire," thereby affecting his current cultivation.

That would be unwise.

Lu Qingfeng refused.

They arrived at the cave abode.

The two took their seats.

Yan Pingshu looked at Lu Qingfeng, his eyes flashing with a strange light, and said loudly, "We were talking about the external war situation just now, and we haven't congratulated you on advancing to the fourth level yet."

"Thank you, senior brother."

Lu Qingfeng replied with a smile.

Since joining the Mystic Origin Sect, Lu Qingfeng has always been steady and methodical. Half a year ago, he displayed his fourth-level alchemy skills.

To outsiders, this newly appointed disciple of the Pill Convergence Hall possessed truly True Disciple talent in alchemy. Not only was he highly regarded by the Pill Convergence Hall's leader, who regarded him as his successor, but he also held a prominent position among the main peak's head and the leaders of other halls.

As Lu Qingfeng advanced to the fourth rank, his reputation spread far and wide, even though he never left Flying Cloud Island.

Almost everyone within and outside the Mystic Origin Sect knows about it.

He is hailed as the most promising candidate in the Mystic Origin Sect to reach the fifth rank and inherit the position of the Hall of the Pill Convergence Hall Harmony.

Their status and reputation have increased more than tenfold compared to when they were at the third rank!

"Fourth-Order Alchemist and Third-Order Artifact Refiner in the Foundation Establishment Realm. If my junior brother advances to Core Formation in the future, his achievements will probably not be inferior to that one in the Illusory Wave Sea."

Yan Pingshu emotion.

The world is full of extraordinary talents.

Several years ago, upon hearing that the Rogue Person Blazing Fire of the Illusory Wave Sea was a fifth-tier Alchemist and weapon refiner, I thought he was one of the rarest in the world. Now, upon returning and learning that Junior Brother Lu has advanced to Fourth-Order Alchemist, I realize that there is no shortage of exceptionally talented people in the world.

"The Rogue Person Blazing Fire is one of the 'Five Rogue Persons,' on par with the four Rogue Person who made a name for themselves early on in the Three Realms. He is also a fifth-tier alchemist and weapon craftsman."

"How can Lu compare?"

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

Upon hearing Yan Pingshu couldn't help but praise, "Junior Brother is exceptionally talented and hardworking, yet he remains so humble. I am truly ashamed of myself."

"Senior brother is just one step away from the Fusion Realm."

"Once you've taken this step and perfected the Fusion Realm, you can start preparing to break through to the Core Formation Realm."

"I should learn more from my senior brother."

Lu Qingfeng uttered these words.

The two exchanged a glance, and seeing each other's compliments, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After exchanging pleasantries.

Yan Pingshu took out Storage Bag from his waist and shook it in front of him. Dozens of jade boxes and countless materials fell to the ground, piling up like a small mountain, making a sound.

"This is--"

Lu Qingfeng looked at Yan Pingshu.

Yan Pingshu said, "The jade box contains third- and fourth-grade spirit medicine. Junior Brother is particularly fond of alchemy, so I specially kept them for him. These materials are mostly carefully selected and are extremely rare even in the Hall of Rare Treasures."

Looking at the materials scattered on the ground, Lu Qingfeng quickly said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

His previous status within the Mystic Origin Sect was that of a third-tier alchemist and artifact crafter, who only 'advanced' to Fourth-Order Alchemist half a year ago. He also connected with Hall of Rare Treasures through Yan Pingshu, collecting various spirit medicine and materials.

Yan Pingshu kept an eye out and collected information for him from outside.

Although Lu Qingfeng doesn't need it much right now, the friendship is genuine.

"These are nothing."

Yan Pingshu reached into his robes, pulled out a transparent, ethereal, and seemingly real black jade stone, and casually tossed it to Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng gripped the jade, his eyes suddenly shining brightly—

"Dream Illusion Stone".

After seeing Yan Pingshu off.

Lu Qingfeng returned to his cave abode, clutching the dark jade stone, lost in thought.

Dream Illusion Stone.

One of the three most important and rarest materials for crafting Teleportation Array Disc.

Of the three materials, the Purple Essence Copper was acquired at an auction quite early on. As the Ironfire Ants matured, the Refined Crystal also began to be produced gradually.

The only thing left untouched was the Dream Illusion Stone.

Legend has it that within the Three Origins Mountain Range, the Illusory Origin Demon Sect possesses a wondrous place called the Nightmare Realm, which may contain the Dream Illusion Stone. Lu Qingfeng originally intended to explore it on his way back from the Gathering Cloud Mountains to the Profound Origin Water Realm.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

I never went.

"The Dream Illusion Stone is precious; how could the Illusory Origin Demon Sect possibly possess it? Hall of Rare Treasures has already investigated and found this to be a rumor."

"I thought I wouldn't be able to find the Dream Illusion Stone for the time being."

"I never expected to be found by Senior Brother Yan."

Lu Qingfeng casually tossed the Dream Illusion Stone into his Storage Bag, sincerely marveling at Yan Pingshu fortune.

First, there was the Soul-Swaying Stone.

Then came the Dream Illusion Stone.

These are all rare treasures, worth no less than four or five thousand Spirit Stone. If simply converted into Spirit Stone, Yan Pingshu's wealth would probably rank among the top in the Three Realms of the Spirit Void Realm.

"You've come at the perfect time."

"In the Weeping Marsh, the first batch of disciples undergoing the Immortality Trial is almost finished."

"However, there are still many hidden dangers. Moreover, I currently have the dual identities of True Disciple of the Pill Convergence Hall and Rogue Person Blazing Fire. I have no shortage of spirit medicine or refining materials."

"Azure Origin Sword Sect— "

Lu Qingfeng sorted out his thoughts.

Not in a hurry to refine the Nine Palaces Star Compass, he got up and left Flying Cloud Island, heading towards Sunset Peak.

"Disciple greets Master."

In the Pill Convergence Hall, in the main hall of the Venerable One, Lu Qingfeng bowed deeply to the Gu Buyan.

Years have passed.

Gu Buyan remains old and frail.

He is, after all Core Formation True Person. Although he is old and frail, he still has quite a few days left before he passes away.

Upon seeing his beloved disciple, Gu Buyan showed a kind expression. "You spend all your time in seclusion on Flying Cloud Island. Do you find it boring?"

"The art of alchemy is profound and complex. As a disciple, I try to comprehend the Great Dao, but I only regret that time flies by and I find it tedious."

Lu Qingfeng wandered through the world of "Primordial World," witnessing countless wonders and experiencing endless mysteries. How could he find it boring?

"You."

Upon hearing this, Gu Buyan immediately laughed.

The young disciple I took in ten years ago is truly a worry-free person. He spends most of his time in seclusion on Flying Cloud Island, studying the art of alchemy.

Genius.

In addition, he worked hard.

Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why he was able to improve his alchemy skills from the third to the fourth level in just ten years.

Lu Qingfeng stood quietly.

This master's cultivation level was only at the Void Core stage, and his alchemy skills were only at the fifth level. He caught up with him early on in the game, and could completely crush him in both alchemy and combat. Even in terms of age, the combined age of his thirteen incarnations in the game was almost the same as Gu Buyan's.

But Gu Buyan is indeed a rare and excellent teacher.

Putting aside his teaching skills, his sincerity and attitude over the years have earned him the respect of Lu Qingfeng.

Seeing Lu Qingfeng's respect, Gu Buyan's smile widened, and he said loudly, "Recently, I invited Master Liuguang from the east and Master Half Moon from the south to come to the Profound Origin Water Realm for a chat. You will accompany them. These two masters are both rare fifth-order Alchemist in the Mystic Origin Realm. A little guidance from them is better than years of closed-door comprehension."

Liuguang True Person.

Half Moon True Person.

Both of them are fifth-level Alchemist, and they are quite famous in the Three Realms.

Lu Qingfeng had also heard about it.

Gu Buyan must have put in a lot of effort to invite these two. He himself has no hope of advancing to the sixth rank in this lifetime, so his intention in inviting them is self-evident.

"Thank you, Master."

Lu Qingfeng quickly thanked him.

Although he was already a fifth-level Alchemist, he could still learn from others and improve his own skills by exchanging ideas and discussing the Dao with fellow practitioners.

"We are master and disciple, there is no need for thanks."

Gu Buyan shook his head and said regretfully, "It's a pity that the Rogue Person Blazing Fire of the Illusory Wave Sea often goes into seclusion, appearing and disappearing like a dragon. I sent someone to invite him, but I didn't get a response. You two are both accomplished in alchemy and weapon crafting, and you are diligent and like to go into seclusion to comprehend, rarely going out. If we could invite this master who has extraordinary attainments in alchemy and weapon crafting, we would definitely have a lot in common."

"..."

Lu Qingfeng blinked and replied casually, "With Master's teachings, why should I flatter others?"

"This Rogue Person Blazing Fire is no ordinary person."

Upon hearing this, Gu Buyan sighed but didn't say much more about it.

He then asked, "I remember seven years ago, Jade Pillar Peak gave you a jade talisman representing the First Secret Realm Scripture Transmission Hall. Why haven't you gone there yet?"

"Disciple--"

Lu Qingfeng was taken aback.

He forgot.

With all the Divine Ability he possessed in the game, he wouldn't care about the few Technique Method in the Mystic Origin Sect. In addition, he was preoccupied with various trivial matters and had to manage his identity as 'Rogue Person Blazing Fire,' so he had long forgotten about this matter.

Gu Buyan looked at Lu Qingfeng and said slowly, "It's not wrong to be fond of alchemy, but cultivation is the foundation. If you delay your cultivation because of alchemy and stop at the Spirit Void or even Foundation Establishment, it will be too late to regret it in the future. The First Secret Realm of the Scripture Transmission Hall is hard to come by. Go there as soon as possible and comprehend the Miaofa. It will greatly help your cultivation."

"The way of cultivation lies in the balance between exertion and relaxation. Having stayed on Flying Cloud Island for too long, it's time to go to the First Secret Realm to relax and rejuvenate."

It has to be said.

What Gu Buyan said is indeed very true.

However, this only applies to ordinary cultivators. Lu Qingfeng has a hundredfold time difference, allowing him to simultaneously refine pills and forge weapons without interfering with his cultivation in reality. Going to the First Secret Realm would only be a waste of time.

However, Gu Buyan's intentions were not good, and the spots in the secret realm were indeed rare. Lu Qingfeng could not refuse, Attainment of the Dao, "I will follow Master's teachings and go to the First Secret Realm in the next few days."

I'm still in the Rebirth Pool in the game, with two months of free time, so I might as well go to the First Secret Realm to get by.

Gu Buyan listened and nodded, saying, "That's better. If you keep this jade talisman, it will be difficult for me to ask for another spot in the secret realm for you."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingfeng felt a headache coming on.

Gu Buyan, unaware of his proud disciple's thoughts, said to himself, "However, don't rush to go in the next few days, lest you miss Masters Liuguang and Half Moon."

"Disciple understands."

Lu Qingfeng reluctantly agreed.

I finally had two months of free time and had planned to take Qingyu to see the Qingshan, but now it seems that I have to put that on hold.
