From dual spiritual roots to a sword master with all attributes

Chapter 186 Xuanyin Soul-Forging Wine

This Xuanyin Tempering Spirit Wine is a semi-fourth-grade spiritual wine.

Its effect is single and can only affect the soul of the cultivator, but it is extremely unique.

It is not used to strengthen the soul, nor can it be used to restore the soul.

Instead, he used the ultimate mysterious yin power in the spiritual wine to temper his soul, so that it would gradually develop some extreme yin characteristics.

If one could obtain a large amount of Xuanyin Soul-Forging Wine, one could use it to completely achieve the ultimate Yin soul. One could also, when it breaks through, use the principle of Yin producing Yang to create a hint of pure Yang characteristics.

The meaning of the pure yang soul is well known in the world of immortal cultivation.

If a Jindan cultivator wants to break through to the Yuanying stage, he must have a little pure yang in his soul. Otherwise, he will not be able to subdue the Yuanying that condensed after the dan was broken in the Dantian, let alone control the magic power after the qualitative change.

Therefore, the appearance of pure yang is an important sign that the soul has reached the Nascent Soul level. This is also the reason why early Nascent Soul cultivators were called Pure Yang True Men.

For a cultivator to achieve pure yang in his soul, it is not something that can be achieved through mere hard practice. The key lies in the cultivator's thunder tribulation.

When a cultivator breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, the thunder tribulation that befalls him is not just a test from heaven and earth, it is also an important part of the cultivator's achievement of the Nascent Soul stage.

When going through a thunder tribulation, it is not only the cultivator's physical body that bears the brunt of the thunder tribulation, but the soul hidden beneath the physical body will also inevitably bear some of the force of the tribulation.

However, everything has another side. In the thunder tribulation filled with destructive power, there is a subtle opportunity for regeneration, which is also the key to the qualitative change of the soul.

But if the strength of the soul is not enough to support it to survive the thunder tribulation, then even if you know such secrets in advance, you will not be able to seize the opportunity.

As for those with strong souls and solid foundations, although there are still certain risks in the thunder tribulation, they can take this opportunity to use the power of the thunder tribulation to temper their souls and condense the pure yang characteristics.

This is like walking on a tightrope at a high altitude. If the power of the thunder tribulation is too little, it will not be able to play a tempering role, let alone refine pure yang. If the thunder tribulation is too heavy, if you are not careful, your origin will be damaged at best, and it is very likely that you will be turned into ashes on the spot at worst.

The origin that has been damaged at this stage cannot be saved as easily as when the foundation was first established. Without a heaven-defying opportunity, it can be said that the path of cultivation will come to an end here.

But cultivation is to go against the will of heaven. There are not only heavenly tribulations on the road, but also human tribulations and mental tribulations. If you don't go through countless tribulations, how can you talk about longevity? Those who escape and fail are destined to waste their lives, while those who overcome tribulations must be brave and diligent.

As the saying goes, his misfortune is my opportunity.

This is the reason why the weak avoid disasters and the strong respond to them.

Fang Xiao originally planned to observe Fang Xiandao forming a baby and see how he overcame the tribulation.

Although the strength of the thunder tribulation is related to the overall strength of the cultivator himself, he can also have a rough estimate of the intensity of the thunder tribulation in advance.

It's a pity that I ended up in a foreign country and missed the opportunity.

However, this Xuanyin Soul-Forging Wine can actually take a different approach, using the ultimate yin to derive pure yang. Fang Xiao had previously been worried that his soul realm would be stuck at the peak of the Jindan stage and unable to break through to the Yuanying stage because it did not have the characteristic of pure yang.

Now this problem is naturally solved. He only needs to make his soul realm reach the peak of Jindan and use the Xuanyin Refining Spirit Wine to reach the realm of Zhiyin. Then he can try to break through the cultivation level first. If he can successfully give birth to Pure Yang, his achievement will be comparable to the soul of a Yuanying period cultivator.

At that time, not only will the strength increase greatly, but the Soul-Nourishing Gourd and the Wanzai Sword Soul will surely reach a balance soon, and practicing the Yuanshen Dao Sword will be just around the corner.

Moreover, when the infant is formed in the future, with the powerful body and soul, although I cannot say that I can survive the thunder tribulation unscathed, I think it will not be very dangerous. Maybe I can even gain more benefits from the thunder tribulation.

The reason why he asked Hu Xuan to help him collect materials even though he had massive resources was that the materials needed to brew the Xuanyin Duanling Wine were either extremely rare or had extremely stringent requirements on medicinal properties.

However, Fang Xiao had all these rare and precious elixirs on him, except for some materials that had just been harvested and had sufficient medicinal effects. These were not difficult to find, but there were quite a lot of them, and collecting them was time-consuming and laborious, so he assigned them to Hu Xuan at this time.

Although Hu Xuan had his doubts, it was just a small matter and it was a good opportunity for him to curry favor with the emperor, so he naturally agreed.

"Now that all the materials are ready, they should not be left for too long. Let's brew the Xuanyin Tempering Spirit Wine first so that we can start practicing as soon as possible."

He also began to process the materials in front of him one by one.

It has to be said that the Xuanyin Duanling Wine is indeed worthy of being a semi-fourth-level spiritual wine. Even though Fang Xiao is already able to brew most of the third-level spiritual wines with ease, he was still shocked when he saw the processing method and operation process of this wine.

"The brewing process of the semi-fourth-grade spirit wine is already so complicated, and I don't know how complicated the fourth-grade spirit wine of the Nascent Soul level will be."

Fang Xiao shook his head. The fourth-level spirit wine was not something he should consider at this stage. He then took the processed materials and devoted himself to the process of brewing the spirit wine.

He put the processed materials into the furnace one by one, and then used the special spell in the spirit wine recipe to continue roasting them with real fire.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but it's a high-level spiritual wine, and the way of refining it is more and more like alchemy. Fortunately, it's just similar, and it's essentially still brewing wine. Otherwise, he's really afraid that in addition to the talent for brewing wine, he also needs the talent for alchemy.

He strictly followed the instructions on the spirit wine recipe, controlling the temperature and time, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

During the long wait, Fang Xiao remained focused, knowing that every detail mattered to the success or failure of the wine.

Finally, a strong aroma of wine emanated from the furnace. Fang Xiao's eyes flashed with joy, but he did not relax at all, because the Xuanyin Refining Spirit Wine also required him to inject a large amount of ice-attribute mana into it.

As the magic power in his body continued to flow into the cauldron, although the spiritual wine was isolated in the cauldron, he could clearly feel the temperature around him begin to drop rapidly.

In a short while, the entire attic seemed to have turned into a world of ice and frost.

Fang Xiao didn't care about this at all. With the forbidden partitions he had set up in advance, he didn't have to worry about the cold air spreading to the outside world and attracting the attention of third-level Gu Masters such as Hu Xuan.

Just like that, he continued to output mana without any pause. If he were an ordinary cultivator, he would probably run out of spiritual power soon.

However, the supreme golden elixir endowed him with nearly endless mana and an extremely fast recovery speed. With the Jade of the Spirit Eye, let alone exhausting his mana, even the amount output at this moment would not be as fast as his recovery.

After more than ten days, the cauldron seemed to have turned into a block of ice, with spiritual characters appearing on it.

Fang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and the magic power in his hands gradually stopped.

"It's done."

Then he punched the frozen furnace.
