Primordial Era: Becoming Laozi's Disciple, I Refine a Mythical Golden Elixir

Luo Xuan jumped out of the Five Directions Cauldron. "How was it? It should have been very simple, right?"

"Master Xuan, will this really work?"

Someone in the crowd spoke.

Everyone else cast doubtful glances at Luo Xuan.

Although they respected Luo Xuan, they had never seen such a method anywhere in the Primordial Era.

Moreover, Luo Xuan's physical condition before and after seemed unchanged.

Luo Xuan chuckled and immediately found the person who had spoken.

This Human Race member looked to be in his forties or fifties, slightly hunched.

However, his aura was already at the late stage of Mysterious Immortal, not far from Golden Immortal.

Luo Xuan beckoned and said with a smile, "You, yes, you, come up here."

The man, with a nervous heart, stood before Luo Xuan.

Luo Xuan smiled, "Don't be nervous, hit me with all you've got."

"What?"

The man was slightly stunned, thinking he had misheard.

But under Luo Xuan's affirmative gaze, the man finally became convinced.

At first, when this Human Race member saw the legendary Alchemy Ancestor at such close range, he was very excited and didn't dare to use his full strength.

As a result, when he punched Luo Xuan, he only felt his fist hurt as if he had hit a stone.

Seeing Luo Xuan's composed demeanor, he even smiled at him.

Only then did he finally relax and unleash his full strength, striking Luo Xuan.

But the result remained the same; not even a single mark was left on Luo Xuan.

Seeing this, the other Human Race members became curious, thinking that this Mysterious Immortal was intentionally going easy on them, and they all went to test him.

As a result, these Human Race members, who were generally at the True Immortal cultivation level, performed even worse than the first person.

"I'll do it!"

Just then, a voice came from behind Suiren Shi.

It was someone who had demonstrated the path of the Golden Elixir to Luo Xuan yesterday; Luo Xuan had some impression of him.

This person's cultivation was at the early stage of Golden Immortal, considered a top talent among all the Human Race members.

He stood in front of Luo Xuan, using his waist to power his punch, even causing the Golden Elixir within him to spin rapidly.

All the Human Race members could feel a gust of wind emanating from him.

"Boom!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, his fist finally struck out.

But just as his fist was about to land on Luo Xuan.

A layer of dark-colored armor faintly appeared on Luo Xuan's body.

When the fist landed on the armor, Luo Xuan didn't move at all. The attacker, however, turned red in the face and stumbled back a few steps as if he had been attacked.

All the Human Race members widened their eyes at this sight.

Not only was the armor incredibly defensive, but it could also reflect some of the force!

And everyone had seen it clearly just now.

Luo Xuan had only used his physical Bloodline Power and had not mobilized any Immortal Power at all!

"Master Xuan's method is indeed effective!"

At this moment, all the Human Race members were eager to try.

Luo Xuan smiled and looked at Suiren Shi, "Old Ancestor, why don't you try it first?"

Suiren Shi, who had been itching to try, quickly nodded when Luo Xuan said this.

"Good! As the Old Ancestor of the Human Race, I should naturally experience the pros and cons of this body-refining technique for our people."

Under the scornful eyes of Youchaoshi and Ziyi Clan, Suiren Shi leaped into the Alchemy Furnace.

Everyone craned their necks, their eyes filled with both curiosity and fear.

However, they all stared intently at Luo Xuan's actions, afraid of missing even a single detail.

"Master Xuan, we who cultivate body-refining techniques, can we also refine demonic beasts like you?"

Someone asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Luo Xuan smiled, "Of course, you can. However, even if it's not demonic beasts, Spiritual Roots and earthly materials can also temper the physical body."

As he spoke, Luo Xuan took out a section of Diamond Vine and threw it into the cauldron.

By the time dusk arrived, all the Human Race members felt no tiredness; instead, their spirits were invigorated.

Within the Five Directions Cauldron, colorful, misty energy gradually rose.

Chapter 41: That's It?

Darkness surrounded them, so black that one couldn't see their hand in front of their face.

Gradually, an orange-red glow appeared beneath their feet, then spread outwards.

Suiren Shi quickly felt the heat.

The stifling temperature caused beads of sweat to trickle down Suiren Shi's forehead.

However, Suiren Shi remained completely calm.

He sat cross-legged inside the cauldron, silently beginning to circulate the cultivation method taught by Luo Xuan.

As the temperature inside the cauldron rose, Suiren Shi sweated profusely.

Even with his eyes closed, Suiren Shi could sense a crimson light.

He felt as if he were at the heart of the sun.

As he circulated the method, he felt as though he could melt at any moment, his very body beginning to contort.

In this state, Suiren Shi vaguely felt wisps of turbid qi rising within him.

His physical body also gradually became sticky.

These were the impurities Suiren Shi had accumulated since his birth, now being refined out.

Is this the feeling Luo Xuan experienced just now?

Suiren Shi suddenly felt a sense of admiration for Luo Xuan in his heart.

The scorching air felt like countless fine needles, constantly piercing his pores.

However, he remembered Luo Xuan's instructions and forced his consciousness to stay alert.

Just as Suiren Shi was about to drift off to sleep, an opening suddenly appeared at the top of the cauldron.

The influx of clear qi also helped Suiren Shi regain some clarity.

Then, he saw several spiritual roots and earthly materials being thrown into the opening one after another.

Diamond Vine, Jade Grass, Purple Gold Fruit...

There were also many spiritual roots he didn't recognize, but their auras alone indicated their extraordinary quality.

Having cared for Suiren Shi on Shouyang Mountain for so many years, Luo Xuan naturally wouldn't mistreat him.

To lay a solid foundation for Suiren Shi and to maximize the effectiveness of this demonstration, Luo Xuan even brought out many spiritual roots and earthly materials that were extremely rare even on Kunlun Mountain.

Suiren Shi's heart stirred. Immortal Power surged within him, expelling all impurities from his body through the opening at the bottom of the cauldron.

Then, his Immortal Power touched those spiritual roots and earthly materials.

Aided by the intense heat, these spiritual roots continuously turned into powder. The most refined parts transformed into specks of spiritual light, converging into balls of spiritual liquid.

The spiritual liquid, guided by his Immortal Power, covered Suiren Shi's entire body.

Suiren Shi's spiritual platform immediately became clearer, and he could even feel his physical body sending out waves of joy.

As his body was continuously refined, it was once again burned down to skin and bones...

Then, the medicinal ingredients on his skin were gradually absorbed by his body...

The body-refining method circulated even faster, and Suiren Shi gradually became immersed in this cycle.

After an unknown amount of time, the temperature gradually cooled, and darkness fell within the cauldron once more.

Suiren Shi suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of golden-red light disappearing from his pupils.

The cauldron's lid boomed open. Suiren Shi smiled and shot towards the sky.

"Look quickly, the Ancestor is out!"

Outside the cauldron, all the Human Race members were looking up in anticipation.

The next moment, a streak of light, like a meteor, shot out from the cauldron.

Suiren Shi's figure appeared, and everyone could clearly see the changes in his body.

The animal skin he had been wearing had turned to ash in the cauldron, and Suiren Shi's flabby body, which had shown signs of his lifespan waning, was now firm and lustrous, reignited with vitality!

"This method can actually return a person's body to its peak!"

Youchaoshi and Ziyi Clan looked at Suiren Shi, their eyes shining with brilliance.

Although the changes were subtle, they couldn't escape their eyes.

Luo Xuan was currently at his peak, so they couldn't discern anything. But with Suiren Shi, they noticed the transformation immediately.

Winged Serpents were a type of monster near Shouyang Mountain.

The most powerful among them, the Winged Serpent leader, had already developed sentience. His greatest dream was to break through and become a transformed monster.
