Chapter 694 - 636: Golden Crow Becomes the Sun
Not to mention True Masters of the Fake Pill Realm.
Even Late Stage True Pill and Middle Stage Golden Core cultivators, Shen Xuan could easily defeat.
Shen Xuan tried to unseal the Ice Technique Golden Core and circulate his dual Ice and Fire Spiritual Power.
Before long.
Shen Xuan gave up.
The Fire Spiritual Power was still too weak, completely no match for the Primordial Ice Spiritual Power.
Once the two kinds of Spiritual Power came into contact, not only could they not merge, they would actually consume each other.
"It’s not time yet."
Shen Xuan abandoned the attempt to fuse Ice and Fire Spiritual Power.
"I’ve already formed my core for thirty-three years. Now, I’m a hundred and ninety-three years old, with a Tier Three Upper Grade Spirit Vein like Starlight Island, a rich foundation, all kinds of Cultivation Resources at my disposal; there’s no need to worry about my cultivation speed."
"The further I go, the more I must stabilize my foundation. In another twenty or thirty years, I’ll be able to cultivate to the peak of Early Stage Golden Core and break through to Middle Stage Golden Core!"
"After reaching Middle Stage Golden Core, my Divine Soul and Divine Sense will both strengthen; I should then be able to press on and use my Body Refining Technique to assault the Divine Power Realm!"
"With the Tier Three Top Grade Black Water Demon Flood Dragon Demon Core Essence Blood and reverse scale, breaking through the bottleneck shouldn’t be difficult."
"If it really doesn’t work, I’ll burn my Lifespan and keep activating [Dragon Blood Boiling]; it’s impossible not to break through!"
"After reaching the Divine Power Realm, even if I’m no match for Nascent Soul True Monarchs or Demon Infant Demon Ancestors, I’ll still be able to retreat calmly."
Shen Xuan pondered silently in his heart.
He was unwilling to entrust his own safety to others.
Even if the Demon Race fully invaded the Xuan Yuan World.
As a Divine Power Realm cultivator, he would always be able to find a place to settle.
"Aside from cultivating Ice Techniques and Body Refining, I also have to dual-cultivate Fire Techniques."
"In addition, twenty years from now, I must enter Yue Country’s Spirit Stream Secret Realm under the identity of a Fire Technique Foundation Establishment cultivator and obtain that Primordial True Water."
Shen Xuan had several kinds of Anomalous Fire on hand.
But he didn’t have a single drop of Spirit Water.
As for ordinary Spirit Water, Shen Xuan didn’t think much of it.
A heavenly Spirit Water like Primordial True Water, which possessed healing effects, was exactly to his liking.
After all, at all times, he placed survival above all else.
"Twenty years from now, I’ll only be a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Fire Technique cultivator."
"I also need to prepare in advance and choose a suitable identity."
"To enter the Spirit Stream Secret Realm, there will inevitably be a round of assessment and competition."
Compared with Song Country, Yue Country’s Sects were relatively weaker.
But there was no way they would casually hand out Secret Realm quotas.
If Shen Xuan wanted to enter the Spirit Stream Secret Realm, he had to go there a few years ahead of time.
"Therefore, my Fire Technique cultivation has to speed up a bit. Within fifteen years, I must break through to Middle Stage Foundation Establishment."
"Besides, I cannot abandon [Other Shore Demon Flower]!"
Shen Xuan glanced at his Lifespan.
There were still 1,090 years left.
"Although I still have a trump card like the Profound Ice Treasure Talisman, when facing opponents I cannot possibly resist, such as Nascent Soul True Monarchs or Demon Infant Old Ancestors, this [Other Shore Demon Flower] can produce unexpected special effects."
Generally speaking.
The Inner Alchemy Realm had five hundred years of Lifespan, and the Nascent Soul Formation Realm had one thousand years.
Demon Infant Demon Ancestors would have slightly less.
Many Nascent Soul True Monarchs and Demon Infant Demon Ancestors, though vast in Divine Powers and strong in Magical Power.
Yet their remaining Lifespan wasn’t much.
A Divine Power like [Other Shore Demon Flower], which directly attacked the opponent’s Life Force and Lifespan, would absolutely catch them off guard and make them wary.
If the opponent’s Lifespan was low, Shen Xuan might even counter-kill them.
Unfortunately, the cultivation cost of [Other Shore Demon Flower] was too great.
It wasn’t just time and energy.
It also required consuming the Lifespan Shen Xuan valued most.
"It’s fine. I have over a thousand years of Lifespan, and I can still find ways to increase it. Spending some Lifespan in exchange for one more trump card to save my life is well worth it."
In short, the Cultivation Realm was far too dangerous.
The more means Shen Xuan had to protect his Dao, the better.
He didn’t want to provoke others; he only wanted to cultivate quietly.
It was just that the affairs of the world were unpredictable.
In this world, no one would allow you to enjoy tranquil years.
Only by increasing his own strength could he gain a sense of security.
This was also why Shen Xuan was unwilling to take part in Cyan Cloud Sect’s affairs.
Anyone could see that within the entire Cyan Cloud Sect, aside from Spirit Sword True Master and Mysterious Trace True Master, he was the one most likely to charge toward the Nascent Soul path.
But so what?
Condensing a Nascent Soul required consuming a massive amount of Cultivation Resources.
Even someone like True Master Primordial Fire, whose chances weren’t great, had exhausted Fire Cloud Sect’s entire foundation.
In Shen Xuan’s view, although Cyan Cloud Sect was much stronger than Fire Cloud Sect.
Not just anyone had the qualifications to use a Nascent Soul Pill and Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects to charge toward the Nascent Soul path.
If he wasn’t mistaken.
True Monarch Qing Yun would prioritize one person and support them with all their might.
Spirit Sword True Master and Mysterious Trace True Master were still locked in a fierce struggle, competing for that sole slot to attempt a breakthrough.
Although Shen Xuan was an alternate choice, he was most likely just a name on the list, with no chance of being chosen.
In any case, he never pinned his hopes on Cyan Cloud Sect.
Relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself.
Once he achieved the Divine Power Realm, Shen Xuan would think of his own ways to gather resources and accumulate wealth.
Under the heavens, where could he not go? Why cling to a single sect or a single country?
Having settled his future plans, Shen Xuan rested for a moment and walked out of the Practice Room.
At this time, Shangguan Wan’Er, who had been guarding the door, stepped forward and handed him an invitation.
"A trade fair jointly organized by Profound Celestial Sect and Hehuan Sect?"
