Although it was only a Body Cultivator's Breakthrough, the spiritual power within her body did not undergo a qualitative change.
However, Su Bai found it significantly easier to refine the thousand year Spirit Medicine.
"I'm really looking forward to what my first third-tier Medicinal Pill will be."
She reached out and stroked the Pill Furnace in front of her.
Su Bai revealed a confident smile.
Previously, due to her cultivation, she was accustomed to considering the consequences of her actions.
Now that she had finally become a top-tier combatant in the Southwest Sea, her mood was incredibly relaxed.
It was as if the pressure of survival on her head had suddenly lessened a great deal.
However, the Body Refining Cultivation Technique she cultivated had reached its limit at the third Realm.
The Heavenly Calamity Illusionary Thunder Body Tempering Method could only support Su Bai's Cultivation up to the Jindan Stage.
This meant that once Su Bai cultivated further and reached the Late Stage of the third Realm, this Cultivation Technique would no longer be able to help her continue to improve.
Unless, like the Three Meridians Seven Chakras, a new Cultivation Technique was created.
The Three Meridians Seven Chakras had already broken through the Seven Chakras, with only the three main Meridians remaining.
It could support Su Bai's Cultivation to the fourth Realm, the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Let's take it slow. I'm only in the Early Stage of the third Realm; the Late Stage is still far away."
"Perhaps later, I'll have a flash of inspiration, and the Heavenly Calamity Illusionary Thunder Body Tempering Method will also have new ideas."
Besides waiting for news from Yan Lei, Su Bai was also waiting for someone else.
Xu Changge was currently in seclusion.
Half a year ago, Xu Changge had already broken through to Core Formation.
It was also at that time that Su Bai chose to go to the Outer Sea to break through her Body Refining Realm.
Now she herself had returned.
Why hadn't Xu Changge come out of seclusion yet?
Su Bai had obviously forgotten something.
After Cultivators break through, some continue to seclude themselves to stabilize their Realm, while others adapt to their new power.
Xu Changge's Master came from Green Bamboo Sword Sect with Core Formation resources.
It was impossible that she only prepared for Xu Changge to break through to Core Formation and be done with it.
She must have also prepared Magic Treasures and more powerful Spells.
At this time, Xu Changge was learning new Spells and refining Magic Treasures.
It was estimated that she wouldn't be able to come out for a while.
Although it was only an ordinary Magic Treasure, incomparable to a Lifebound Treasure, its refinement difficulty was more than a notch higher compared to a Spiritual Artifact.
After all, a Talisman Treasure refined by sacrificing the power of a Magic Treasure, possessing only thirty percent of the Magic Treasure's power, could still achieve heaven-shattering feats in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Even ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators couldn't withstand thirty percent of a Magic Treasure's power.
This shows the power of Magic Treasures.
Time passed like smoke and clouds; two years flew by in a blink of an eye.
Su Bai still added her attribute points to Physique.
Divine Soul: 40, Physique: 44, Magic Power: 40, Creation Essence: 40.
Now, the Spiritual Power liquid had accumulated to two hundred thirty-one drops, and the speed had not slowed down.
After Lu Hong used the two-patterned Medicinal Pill refined from the thousand year Spirit Medicine, she also successfully broke through to Late-Stage Foundation Establishment.
Using Warm Jade, coupled with cultivating with Spiritual Silkworms, her cultivation speed was barely satisfactory.
The only thing Su Bai was dissatisfied with was her Spirit Beast, the Flood Dragon.
"You fellow, why are you breaking through so slowly! And you're still an Earthly Spiritual Root!"
Su Bai poked Little Qing's head repeatedly with her finger.
She felt a bit helpless seeing Little Qing only in the Middle Stage of the second tier.
The bulge on its head was becoming increasingly obvious, and recently, the time it was awake was getting shorter and shorter.
Because Su Bai planned to Cultivate more Flood Dragons, she kept half of the Flood Dragon Blood and Flood Dragon Essence she had obtained, not feeding it all to Little Qing.
If she had fed it all, Little Qing's cultivation would have been higher, probably reaching the level of a third-tier Yao Beast.
However, Su Bai felt that she had Beast-Taming Pills, and Little Qing could also increase its cultivation by eating Poison Pills regularly.
So she did not continue to feed it Flood Dragon Blood and Flood Dragon Essence.
"I've seen your situation in the Taming Beast Art, Little Qing. Is it that the Dragon Clan Bloodline in your Bloodline has become purer, and you're about to undergo a metamorphosis?"
Little Qing's head was poked back and forth by Su Bai.
It just opened its big eyes, able to understand what Su Bai was saying, but not understanding what Su Bai meant by Bloodline.
It only made hissing sounds to please Su Bai.
Little Qing could feel Su Bai's emotions.
It knew that its Master was currently troubled by its strength.
After playing with Little Qing for a while, Su Bai threw out a Beast-Taming Pill.
Little Qing's eyes lit up when it saw the Medicinal Pill, and it opened its mouth and swallowed the Medicinal Pill whole.
Then it showed a satisfied expression.
Seeing this, Su Bai no longer troubled Little Qing and put it back into the Spirit Beast Pouch, letting it slowly digest the Medicinal Pill on its own.
Whether Little Qing's Bloodline transformed or not did not have much impact on Su Bai.
Of course, if Little Qing directly became a Heavenly Spiritual Root, that would definitely have an impact on Su Bai, as it could greatly accelerate her cultivation speed.
Unfortunately, the probability of this was not high.
"Sigh, Warm Jade and Spirit Plants are still the best; you can just Cultivate them directly using Creation Essence."
The Warm Jade bed Su Bai was currently using was already a thousand year warm jade bed.
Cultivating on it, the speed was not a thousand miles a day, but it wasn't much slower either.
Now Su Bai's cultivation speed had completely surpassed Xu Changge's.
When everyone was a Core Formation Cultivator, it wouldn't take many years for her cultivation to catch up.
Su Bai didn't wait for Xu Changge; she waited for Yan Lei first.
After two more years of exploration, there was nothing good left in the outer perimeter of the Nascent Soul Secret Realm.
Everyone began to move deeper inside.
However, the Mist Shadow Beasts encountered inside were also stronger; there were already groups of Late Stage second-tier Mist Shadow Beasts.
Foundation Establishment Cultivators had to stick together.
Those Qi Refining Cultivators who wanted to pick up scraps had basically given up on continuing their exploration and had returned one after another.
Those still exploring in the Secret Realm were at least Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Yan Lei's return this time was clearly with good news.
"Shopkeeper, it's done!"
Yan Lei carefully took out an exquisite Storage Pouch from his Pregnant.
This Storage Pouch was entirely white, with gold threads embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, giving it a simple yet grand appearance.
At first glance, it was not something an ordinary Cultivator could afford.
"Everything is inside; take a look quickly."
At Yan Lei's urging, Su Bai's Divine Sense entered the Storage Pouch, and she found that there were very few things inside.
There were only three hard wooden shelves and a red wooden table.
On the shelves were various Spirit Medicines neatly arranged; these were three sets of Spirit Medicines for refining Medicinal Pills.
And on the table was a neatly cut piece of brocade.
The brocade recorded the third-tier Medicinal Pill that needed to be refined using the Spirit Medicines on those three shelves.
"Haoyuan Pill, main ingredient Ice Crystal Ganoderma, auxiliary ingredients Fire Ganoderma, Taisu Qingling Ganoderma…"
"Taking it can help Jindan Cultivators break through their Bottleneck…"
A Medicinal Pill used to break through a Bottleneck.
This thing was very precious.
Moreover, the age of these Spirit Medicines was all over five hundred years.
And a total of three sets were collected.
The Cultivator who collected these Spirit Medicines must have spent a lot of effort.
Su Bai looked at the Storage Pouch in her hand and smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Yan, how could the other party be at ease letting you bring back such precious things?"
Hearing Su Bai ask this, Yan Lei just smiled, extended his arm, and pulled up his sleeve.
He saw a red talisman script on his heart meridian.
"Heh, so there's a time limit. Core Formation True Persons have many methods. If I don't bring the Medicinal Pill back within two years, this thing will drill into my heart meridian, causing me to die in agony, and the other party can also track me down along the talisman script."
