Chapter 491: The Road Ahead

w powers were added within it: ice, wind, and thunder. 。However, Lü Xiaoteng's Wuxing Jindan only contained the properties of the five elements. The Ice, Wind, and Thunder powers were relatively weak...Even his cultivation of the Splitting Mystical Art, which had already split into five primordial spirits, was insufficient at this time. The Ice Soul Xuan Yin unexpectedly failed to keep up, and the only sixth-rank Earth Man Puppet in his hand was now useless. From now on, he would have to face enemies of the Golden Core stage. A sixth-rank Earth Man Puppet wouldn't be able to withstand a single strike from a Golden Core cultivator. 。As for the Seventh Rank puppets, if obtained, they could provide him with considerable assistance. 。"But Lu Xiaotian quickly revealed a wry smile again. A seventh-tier puppet, he had never even heard of it before in the Looking Moon Cultivation Realm. Perhaps only the Qianzhu School would have such top-notch puppets." 。Or perhaps those two mysterious terracotta figures also knew similar news. 。Moreover, when activating a sixth-order puppet, high-grade spirit stones are required. For a seventh-order puppet, it would likely take high-grade spirit stones to power it for an extended period, as even high-grade spirit stones might not be sufficient. Currently, he does not possess these items. 。As for those magic artifacts, I cannot use them for now. 。There's no rush about the puppet matter, we can take our time and investigate it later. 。Now that I've achieved the Golden Core stage, I'll still have to travel in the Blue Devil Sea. Closing myself off to cultivate is not a way to improve my strength further. 。The danger level of the Blue Devil Sea is no less than that of the Moon Watching Immortal Realm. Since I will be venturing out in the future, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of my own strength. 。Increase your combat effectiveness as much as possible. 。Practice makes perfect, so that you can live better in the Xianxia world in the future. 。

Back in the Qi Refining stage, most of the methods used were unsustainable. Lei Wantian and Su Hongchou, those Golden Core cultivators, didn't favor him, but instead favored Luo Qian and Su Qing, whose combat power was lower. This wasn't without reason. Once Luo Qian and Su Qing broke through to the Golden Core stage, their strength would likely not be much weaker than his.

As for Lu Qing, those top-tier Foundation Establishment cultivators might even be stronger than him. 。Of course, the main reason is that at this time his physical cultivation was still at the sixth level. 。If the body cultivation can break through to the seventh rank, his strength will also achieve a qualitative leap. 。The reason cultivators of the physical body are becoming fewer and fewer in the entire cultivation world is that the spiritual herbs needed for them to advance their levels are becoming increasingly scarce. They cannot provide enough corresponding pills, so they can only rely on materials from legendary spirit beasts to break through. 。But this kind of spirit beast is usually rare to encounter. 。Even if you luckily ran into them, it doesn't necessarily mean you could defeat them. 。Luckily, he still had a seven-ranked war beast, Emperor Kun. At the initial stage of Jindan, Emperor Kun's combat power was definitely not low. 。Lu Xia Tian thought long and hard. Besides Di Kun, the only one he could rely on was his skill in array formations. However, refining a fifth-order array formation wasn't easy; just the materials needed were incredibly expensive. 。Another thing is the Soul Devouring Art. If he could kill other Golden Core demon beasts and refine them, his combat power would also increase significantly. However, it's too dangerous to hunt down Golden Core-level demon beasts right now. For now, it's best to solidify his realm first before considering it. 。

We can think of formations later. Besides, the sword intent comprehended during the foundation building period is quite powerful. At this time, after reaching the golden core stage, it is still a very powerful attacking method.

However, before that, I have to find a way to let the Earth-Splitting Blade and Fire Dragon Bow be absorbed into my body for nourishment. 。Otherwise, relying solely on the Shattering Blade and Fire Dragon Bow's current power would be insufficient to contend with other Golden Core cultivators. 。A razor-sharp weapon, of course, cannot be directly swallowed. It needs to be refined with a corresponding attribute liquid mist spirit grass so that the weapon softens before it can be hidden inside the body. 。Inside the barrier, there are two kinds of night mist herbs that were collected before. They can be used after being ripened for three hundred years, but they are not the corresponding fire and gold systems 。To go to the marketplace and buy something also requires spending some spirit stones, now he has nothing on him. 。As for the spirit stones previously used to rent the cave abode, although there was more than a year left on the lease, we have to forfeit it now. The cave abode has been completely destroyed in the tribulation, and they will definitely deduct a large sum of spirit stones. I estimate that not much will be left. 。Fortunately, there were still quite a few spirit herbs inside the barrier. They could be refined into pills. When he was in the foundation-building stage, Lu Xiaoteng would never use too many medicinal pills even when necessary to prevent others from spying on him. Instead, under various pretexts, he cooperated with Wang Defeng in Wangyue City, doing the same thing. 。However, since I'm already at the Golden Core Stage, pills for cultivators below the Golden Core Stage shouldn't be a problem as long as the quantity isn't excessive. 。On this mountain, which had been struck by lightning and had a large section cut away, Lu Xia Tian used the rich spiritual energy here to recover his magical powers. After refining several furnaces of medicinal pills, he did not stay there any longer and flew directly down the mountain. 。"Congratulations, senior, on successfully crossing the tribulation and becoming a Golden Core cultivator admired by all!" At this time, several Foundation Establishment cultivators responsible for guarding this mountain range saw Lu Xiaoteng flying down, and hurriedly bowed to show respect. 。“I don't have any spirit stones left, but I have a few pills that I used during the Qi Refining period. They are no longer useful to me, so you can take them and share them.” 。Lu Xia tian stretched out his finger and flicked, the small porcelain bottle containing over twenty Ziyang Pills landed in the hand of the leading cultivator at the eighth layer of the Foundation Establishment stage. 。Thanks to the seniors for their kindness. 。The man with the thick eyebrows, who had cultivated to the eighth level of foundation building, opened his dantian pill bottle and beamed. A purple Yang Dan! Even at his current stage, it was something he could definitely use, not to mention that there were a few mid-grade Purple Yang Dans inside, which were quite valuable. 。Cultivators who choose to cross the tribulation in Lanming City are mostly from small sects or wandering cultivators, and they wouldn't be very wealthy. In order to successfully overcome the tribulation thunder, most Qi Condensation cultivators would spend all their resources to prepare as many magic artifacts, pills, or other means as possible. They wouldn't have much spirit stones left in hand. 。However, relatively speaking, they occasionally favor certain spiritual items used by late Foundation Establishment cultivators. After all, once they successfully ascend to the Golden Core stage, the spiritual items used by late Foundation Establishment cultivators are no longer suitable for them. 。And yet, the Purple Yang Pills Lu Xia Tian gave them, some of which were even mid-grade, were incredibly rare for them. 。"By the way, senior, this is our Lan Ming City's entry and exit waist card. In the future, senior can use this waist card to enter Lan Ming City at any time. For a Golden Core cultivator like you, as long as it's not occupying those caves with particularly rich spiritual energy, entering and leaving the city will not require paying spirit stones." 。And as a place where many Foundation Establishment cultivators ascend to the Nascent Soul Stage, Lanming City gathers a large number of Foundation Establishment cultivators, and there are also quite a few Golden Core cultivators. 。The market in Lan Ming City is truly exceptional. There are a vast number of spirit creatures for sale, ranging from the Qi Refining period to the Golden Core period. As long as you have Spirit Stones, seniors can buy whatever they desire. 。The man with thick eyebrows took the Ziyang Pill, and respectfully introduced some general situations of Lanming City. This was also his duty. Lanming City accumulated a lot of wealth through this. 。
