Under the moonlit night, Yan stood on the top of the mountain, watching the clan leader and others happily walking away. Then he slowly withdrew his gaze and said to his mother and several younger siblings standing beside him:
"Okay! Now that the chores have been taken care of, we can retreat and take the spiritual peach with peace of mind."
…
Since the beginning of the world, time has always been the most majestic force in the world. It never changes according to anyone's will. It always flows slowly but unhurriedly but extremely firmly.
It has been five years since Yan returned to join the Yan clan. During these five years, he has been practicing seclusion on the top of the mountain, taking in purple energy to refine the moonlight in the maze, or eating spiritual peaches to practice Taoism.
A person living in a solitary mountain may feel a little lonely, but far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, he has an extra sense of tranquility, which makes his soul pure and unified, more in line with heaven and closer to Tao.
Over the years, Yan has basically become accustomed to such a quiet and lonely life. He is immersed in the nature of heaven and earth every day, comprehends the mystery of the great road, and feels his own continuous improvement of cultivation and the nature of transformation, which makes him feel great joy in his heart.
It was also at this time that Yan truly realized why people accompanying the mountains were called immortals in previous lives.
Five years of latent cultivation, coupled with the help of Lingtao, allowed Yan's cultivation to improve rapidly.
Previously, the spirit of Yan had already generated yang from yin and became the yang god. Traveling during the day seemed to be nothing but waiting for the yin to become pure yang before it could transform into an immortal.
In the past few years, Yan has been busy catching ghosts to earn merit. Although his cultivation has not fallen behind, he only maintains daily practice every day, and his cultivation is not growing fast.
Now, with the help of Lingtao, Yan's cultivation speed is much faster, and the yin residue in the soul is being refined at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually the yin residue is getting less and less.
On this day, after finishing the morning exercise, Yan returned to the stone house on the top of the mountain, took out a rare spiritual peach, ate the peach meat in several mouthfuls, and quickly crossed his legs on the stone couch without thinking about the taste of the spiritual peach. He sat down and began to refine the surging vitality in his body.
At this time, in Yan's body, the spiritual peach melted as soon as it entered his abdomen, and a huge and pure vitality emerged from it, constantly impacting his physical meridians.
Yan was not panicked by this. In the past five years, he had experienced such scenes many times, and his experience was considerable.
Yan was immersed in his mind when the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi and Shen suddenly moved.
The huge vitality of Lingtao is either absorbed by the organs of the physical body, channeled and absorbed by the Tao Qi in the body, or swallowed and refined by the Yang Ying of the Yuan Shen.
It was finally calmed down slowly, waiting to be gradually refined and absorbed.
It sounds simple, but in fact it took nine days from the time Yan took the spirit peach to the time it was finally absorbed and digested, and after that, he would spend more time refining his vitality.
Therefore, the hidden dangers caused by taking Lingtao can be completely eliminated to the greatest extent. After all, a sudden increase in cultivation with the help of external forces will inevitably lead to an unstable foundation.
Moreover, the spiritual peach obtained by Yan was only produced from ordinary spiritual roots, and contained many impurities. Therefore, Yan had to spend time refining and purifying the vitality.
Above the jade cliff, there are misty clouds and shimmering purple clouds. In the stone house, white lamps hang high on the wall. Under it, Yan has been sitting quietly on the stone couch for nearly a month.
Although its shape is quiet, like a solid stone, but accompanied by the sound of slow and long breathing and the thunderous pulse of the organs in the body, the surrounding heaven and earth energy resonates, gathering and dispersing, causing a huge roar.
At the same time, the Lingfeng earth veins under his feet were also pulsing slightly and slowly. With this soothing and regular pulsation, the earth veins also slowly grew.
Time passed slowly, and when the sun broke through the darkness again and slowly struggled out from the horizon, Yan, who had been calm for a month, suddenly started to move.
I saw that his face suddenly straightened, and then the vitality of the surrounding world began to boil.
A huge amount of heaven and earth energy gathered in an instant, forming a huge vortex around Yan, and quickly spread towards the entire mountaintop spiritual cliff.
At the same time, the purple energy of the rising sun rising in the sky and the earth also came to join in the fun at this time, causing the entire jade cliff on the top of the mountain to quickly turn into a sea of purple clouds.
"Look! What's happening on the mountain?"
"What are those purple clouds?"
…
At this time, the Yan clan emerged from the mountainside during the morning meal. The movement on the top of the mountain naturally attracted their attention. Amidst the noise, the clan leader and others quickly jumped into the air and rushed towards the mountain.
"Ning, do you know what is going on?" The clan leader and others stopped outside the maze, feeling the active energy of heaven and earth around them, and turned to Ning and asked.
"I don't know either!" Ning closed his eyes slightly, carefully comprehending the changes in vitality in the world, looking at the purple maze with some worry, and shook his head solemnly as he replied.
"Big brother should have made a breakthrough!" Yu also looked cautious at this time, looking at the gathering energy of heaven and earth, but said with unusual certainty.
"Yes! Big brother closed the maze a year ago and started to break through. The current situation should be the abnormal phenomenon caused by his breakthrough." Yu also nodded and said.
"The movement of Yan Breakthrough is too big!" After hearing the two people's explanations, Qi exclaimed in shock.
"I hope Yan can break through smoothly!" The clan leader said with some worry as he looked at the vortex of vitality that continued to gather and expand.
"Don't worry! With Yan's ability, there will definitely be no problem." Tiger shouted with great certainty. A pair of tiger eyes stared at the huge whirlpool that was constantly devouring the vitality of the world, with excitement and yearning shining in his eyes.
"I hope so!" Lei murmured softly as he looked up at the lightning flashing in the sky due to sudden changes in vitality.
…
At this time, in the stone house on the top of the mountain, Yan was still sitting on the stone couch, and the vast amount of heaven and earth energy and the purple energy of the morning sun around him were continuously being quickly absorbed into his body.
However, his body was like a bottomless pit. Not only did the massive amount of vitality not satisfy him, but it devoured it faster and faster.
At this time, in Yan's sea of consciousness, the boundless vitality turned into stars and fell down. Finally, they were quickly swallowed and refined by a figure sitting cross-legged.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that this figure was a replica of Yan, but it was his soul.
At this time, the soul of Yan was sitting in the sky in the sea of consciousness, with two artifacts of merit and virtue, a spear and a shield, surrounding him, which already gave him a somewhat real feeling.
And as more and more vitality is swallowed and refined by it, the soul grows and becomes fuller at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually becoming more and more real.
At this time, if you look closely at this soul, you will find that there is no trace of yin residue in its entire body, and there is no sense of coldness at all. Instead, it exudes bursts of yang and harmony.
As time passed, the external sun gradually rose higher. When the sun was in the middle of the sky, the Yang Qi between heaven and earth reached its peak.
At the same time, in the sea of flame consciousness, his soul had completed its final accumulation and transformation.
Subsequently, a long and clear sound arose from Yan's spirit, spread from the sea of consciousness to the physical body, and finally resounded throughout the jade cliff on the top of the mountain.
"Om~"
Following this soft cry, Yan's face showed a look of ecstasy, and as a flash of light flashed, his eyes that had been closed for a month suddenly opened.
"Chun Yang! Haha—"
