The Mortal's Path to Immortality

As time went by, Cao Rui stayed in Tianji Fortress to ask questions, as if he had completely forgotten the fact that he was in danger in Qingzhou.

Just like that, a month later, Cao Rui successfully mastered the first level of the Five Elements Body Refining Technique, and his physical level was also raised to a higher level.

This method called the Five Elements Body Refining Technique, when he had the five elements spiritual roots and experience beads, did not need to rely on elixirs at all, and could be rapidly improved. It can be said that the five elements spiritual roots themselves are the "elixir" of this body refining technique.

At the same time, in the Palm of Heaven Bottle, the four spiritual medicines used to refine the White Dew Pill were finally cooked.

Cao Rui immediately began to refine the White Dew Pill for Tianji Baby.

In the central square of Tianji Fortress, Cao Rui took out the third-level alchemy furnace.

Tianji Baby was waiting on the side with drooling.

"Wow, this alchemy furnace is amazing. Just by looking at this alchemy furnace, I know that you, Cao Rui, must be an excellent alchemist!" Seeing that he was about to eat the elixir, Tianji baby spit out all the fragrant farts.

Cao Rui naturally ignored this guy.

It has been a while since the last time he made an elixir, and Cao Rui couldn't help but feel a sense of strangeness in his heart.

However, when he really started to make an elixir, that familiar feeling instantly came to his mind.

He skillfully operated the "Yimu True Fire Alchemy Technique", and the magic in his body continuously turned into a blazing spiritual fire, and these spiritual fires became even purer after being purified by the alchemy furnace.

Cao Rui gently waved his finger, and the various spiritual medicine materials that had been carefully prepared were put into the alchemy furnace in order.

These spiritual medicine materials melted quickly and turned into liquid medicine under the baking of spiritual fire. The whole process was as natural and smooth as flowing water. Cao Rui's method of refining the elixir was skillful and elegant. Every movement was full of rhythm and rhythmic beauty, which was pleasing to the eye.

Tianji baby on the side widened his eyes and stared at Cao Rui's every move, as if afraid of missing any details.

After an hour, a furnace of Bailu Dan finally came out of the furnace.

I saw ten crystal clear pills floating quietly in the air, exuding a tempting aroma, and the heat had not yet dissipated.

Tianji baby had already suppressed his excitement and was eager to go forward and swallow these pills in one breath.

"It's so delicious! The quality is so good! Cao Rui, I have never eaten such a delicious elixir, I will follow you from now on!" Tianji baby looked at Cao Rui with drooling eyes like a puppy.

"Hurry up and make the elixir, what are you still standing there for!"

......

Cao Rui took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and devoted himself to making the elixir again.

He placed the elixir furnace in front of him, and carefully controlled the flame and medicinal materials according to the steps of alchemy.

As time went by, a strong medicinal fragrance gradually emanated from the elixir furnace.

At the same time, Cao Rui's five elements body refining technique in his body was also running slowly while doing two things at the same time.

He closed his eyes tightly, used his consciousness to guide the five elements to flow in the meridians, and constantly tempered his body.

Although this kind of two-point-one-point-two-point made him feel very difficult at the beginning, after a period of adaptation, he gradually mastered the skills.

Now, he can practice the Five Elements Body Refining Technique while refining pills freely, and the two do not interfere with each other.

In the twelve hours of each day, Cao Rui will take out eleven hours to practice and refine pills.

Such a high-intensity practice life is not unfamiliar to him.

Cao Rui lived a hard life in the Tianji Fortress again.

......

So.

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, Cao Rui stayed in the Tianji Fortress for another eight months.

In these eight months, Cao Rui's body refining technique and the cultivation of Tianji Baby have made great progress.

In eight months, the Five Elements Body Refining Technique has been cultivated to the highest fifth level.

For example, when Cao Rui runs the body refining technique, there will be a faint colorful light flashing on the surface of his body.

With the strength of his physical body alone, he can already challenge the cultivators at the peak of the Golden Pill.

Cao Rui thought that after practicing so hard for so long, he would become a Jindan cultivator first by practicing the body cultivation method.

However, body cultivation is not an orthodox practice method. Cao Rui's physical strength has only reached the peak of the Jindan stage, and his life span will not increase as a result.

After Jindan body cultivators have the ability to fight, they often continue to improve their own magic skills, and the two complement each other.

In fact, most body refining techniques lack one of the magic realm and the physical realm.

The difference is big, that is the difference between the magic of the early Jindan stage and the physical body of the late Jindan stage.

Body cultivation is more like a magical power of a cultivator's strong body.

Cao Rui was able to train a Jindan stage physique in the foundation-building stage, entirely because of the fit between the five elements body refining technique and his own five elements spiritual roots.

Tianji baby took the Bailu Dan refined by Cao Rui day and night, and in more than three months, he was promoted to the twelfth level of foundation building.

Five months later, Tianji baby was only a step away from the golden elixir realm.

"Cao Rui, your body refining skills have been promoted again?" Tianji baby asked when he saw the colorful light on Cao Rui's body.

Cao Rui nodded: "Promoted."

"If I saw it with my own eyes, I would never dare to believe it. It has only been a short time, and your physical strength has changed dramatically." Tianji baby sighed.

Cao Rui nodded slightly: "This Five Elements Body Refining Technique is indeed powerful, and it is also the most suitable body refining technique for five spiritual roots cultivators, thanks to the teaching of Senior Long."

He thought to himself that the Five Elements Body Refining Technique had been completed, and Long Xinyue himself had not cultivated to the first level, so there was naturally no follow-up method.

If Cao Rui wanted to continue to improve his physical strength, he could only switch to the Vajra Glazed Body.

However, the difficulty of practicing the Vajra Glazed Body was much greater.

The Vajra Glazed Body relied on the Five Elements Spirits to practice, and Cao Rui needed to prepare the body-tempering spiritual treasures, and it could not be practiced together with the alchemy.

I could only wait until I left Qingzhou, made sufficient preparations, and then started practicing.

"Baby, I have been promoted to the Golden Core, and there are more than 10,000 Bailu Dan spiritual medicines in the Palm of Heaven Bottle. Whether you can be promoted to the Golden Core stage depends on you."

Cao Rui said at this time.

Baby Tianji nodded seriously.

Cao Rui continued to refine the elixir.

In this way, three months passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Baby Tianji took the Bailu Dan that Cao Rui had just refined.

His complexion suddenly changed.

"Cao Rui, I feel like I'm going to be promoted."

"Cao Rui, I'm going to the secret room to practice in seclusion."

"With your strength, you should be able to pass these levels. You can try to pass them in your spare time."

"I'll leave first." Baby Tianji flashed and disappeared in front of Cao Rui.

Cao Rui was stunned for a while, and then quickly refined all the Bailu Dan.

There were still more than a few Bailu Dan left on his head.

"Baby is right."

"If you can reach the Golden Core stage in the Body Refining Technique, you can try to clear all the levels in the Tianji Fortress."

Waiting was useless, Cao Rui's eyes were on the more than 20 remaining teleportation arrays around the square.
