Taiyi True Immortal, Dao of the Inner Elixir
Meanwhile, inside the Gouchen Heavenly Palace.
Compared to the calm of a few days ago, this place has been completely turned into trenches, and the fighting is far more intense than outside.
At first glance, all that could be seen was that the once neat and uniform buildings had been turned into ruins.
The roars of the gods and the Mountain Folk rose and fell, echoing continuously above the Gouchen Heavenly Palace.
Even Yinglong, the strongest fighting force, began to pant heavily after several days of fighting. Under the cover of Yinglong's enormous wings that blotted out the sky, hundreds of gods and Mountain Folk elites fought on the front lines.
The remaining Mountain Folk formed battle formations, cooperating and covering each other to provide ample logistical support for the entire war.
This support includes, but is not limited to, elixirs, Talisman Seal Script, and Formation.
Once battle casualties are discovered, the Mountain Folk will do everything in their power to pull the frontline fighters into the logistical Formation and treat them as quickly as possible. Thanks to this ample logistical support, Gouchen Heavenly Palace has not suffered any casualties to date.
In contrast, the apostles formed from starlight had already piled up their corpses across most of the Gouchen Heavenly Palace.
As far as the eye could see, most of the buildings had been destroyed by the falling corpses; those actually damaged in battle were few. Perhaps they had been enraged by the fierce resistance of the Mountain Folk...
Or perhaps Gouchen's actions instilled a great sense of crisis in them...
Above the Gouchen Heavenly Palace, in the deep space shrouded in the radiance of countless stars.
An unusually distorted point in spacetime appeared out of nowhere, drawing even more starlight to the Gouchen Heavenly Palace.
Tumultuous!
From their appearance to their complete coverage of the Gouchen Heavenly Palace, the starlight took less than a breath, yet successfully locked it completely onto its current orbit.
This means that Gouchen Heavenly Palace has broken away from the system of Celestial Star Gods and can no longer operate on its own like other stars.
"Such a generous gesture, they really think highly of us!"
Without a sound, Lu Huaijin's figure appeared above Yinglong's head.
As the mastermind behind the "Cloudtop Heavenly Palace Project," Lu Huaijin understood better than anyone what this scene meant.
A Star Gods who has successfully attained Dao Proving is planning to forcibly descend upon this place and use his Star Gods authority to banish the Gouchen Heavenly Palace.
This is clearly not something a single Star Gods could accomplish.
Chi must have obtained the consent of a considerable number of Star Gods to be able to banish a star that was still growing.
Of course, if the current Gouchen Heavenly Palace has a true master, a Star Gods who has also successfully Dao Proving.
That company's outrageous actions were tantamount to courting death on the opponent's home turf.
"We cannot allow Chi Zhen to descend!"
A deep voice came from Yinglong's mouth, accompanied by the sounds of thunder and storm.
Two apostles who were trying to launch a sneak attack were blown to pieces by the raging wind and thunder before they could even get close.
Unfortunately, the apostles appearing here now are all just incarnations.
Destroying them consumes starlight and Yuan Qi, but it cannot truly kill their physical bodies located among the stars.
"Of course I know that. The problem now is how to stop the true form of the pond from descending!"
Looking up at the gradually appearing reflection of the Shanggui Star in the sky, Lu Huaijin's Heavenly Eye between his brows had opened without him noticing.
Under the gaze of this Heavenly Eye, the starlight in the sky was no longer dense, but instead full of flaws.
Only the reflection of the Shanggui Star appeared more and more clearly in Lu Huaijin's field of vision.
"This is a genuine Dao Proving One, a true Taiyi True Immortal."
"If you succeed in Dao Proving, we might still have a chance to fight back."
"But you and I are merely Loose Immortal now, far from being a match for a True Immortal."
Although I don't really like using terms like Loose Immortal, True Immortal, and Golden Immortal to categorize individual strength.
However, given the current stalemate in the battle, Lu Huaijin couldn't think of any words that could more clearly illustrate the disparity in strength between the two sides.
"Didn't you say before that realm cannot measure an individual's strength?"
"Besides, you and I follow the Dao of Daluo, and our methods far surpass those of these Taiyi True Immortal."
As he spoke, Yinglong suddenly opened his mouth wide, and a dragon Dragon Pearl as dazzling as a star instantly tore through the sky, directly slamming into the reflection of Shanggui Star. Whoosh!
In an instant, the previously illusory reflection trembled.
The apostles manifested from the stars also cried out in agony, and the weaker ones even had their forms disintegrate.
[Dao of Alchemy taboos? Human Body Treasure Refining?]
His pupils contracted sharply, and Lu Huaijin immediately recognized the true nature of the Dragon Pearl.
Just as Gouchen inscribed the [Heaven and Earth Talisman Incantation] on Fenglong's body, the Dragon Pearl was something similar.
However, Yinglong did not use materials from other creatures, but rather the "inner elixir" he refined himself by gathering the essence of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon. Compared to the great path of cultivation taught by Li Boyang, this "Dao of the Inner Elixir" is obviously a shortcut.
Using oneself as a furnace, one continuously combines the essence of heaven and earth with the Life Primordial Qi to refine a unique "inner elixir". Depending on the essence of heaven and earth absorbed, these "inner elixirs" will have different effects.
Whether it's for strengthening the body, gathering vital energy, healing injuries, prolonging life, or achieving immortality...
Considering that this "inner core" was refined using oneself as the furnace, it will be perfectly suited to the cultivator.
Unlike externally administered pills, which have issues like erysipelas and side effects, this is not an option.
However, Yinglong clearly doesn't need this "inner core" to grant him any additional attributes now.
Because Yinglong has already reached the pinnacle of countless cultivators.
Therefore, this Dragon Pearl does not have any normal medicinal effects; instead, it possesses an extremely pure form of aggression.
In other words, this Dragon Pearl is not a pure elixir, but a product of the combination of alchemy and weapon crafting techniques. It is also proof that Yinglong is pioneering a new Dao Path. "Using elixirs as Law Treasure, you learned that from Jinjiao, didn't you!"
He couldn't help but gasp. After thinking for a long time, Lu Huaijin could only think that Jinjiao might be good at this.
After all, the main function of elixirs is reflected in the word "medicine".
Looking across the entire Hundred Lands Mountain Range, only Jinjiao likes to refine all sorts of random things into "elixirs" and then happily throw them to Yinjiao to use.
In Jinjiao's own words, "How could Dao of Alchemy be such an inconvenient thing!?"
"Never mind who I learned it from, just tell me if it's useful or not!"
With a slight upturn of his lips, Yinglong hadn't expected that the "inner core" he had refined would be so powerful.
This was the first time he had used his inner core to fight an enemy, and the Talisman Incantation on it were merely [Life Talisman Incantation] and [Transformation Talisman Incantation]. "It's somewhat useful, but not as useful as I'd imagined."
Looking at Yinglong, whose face was full of pride, Lu Huaijin, after a brief silence, teased him as always.
"If this 'elixir' is shattered, won't all the time and effort you've spent on it be wasted?"
"According to a phrase Master often uses, wouldn't this be considered 'a thousand years of cultivation destroyed in an instant'?"
