Chapter 125: Inner Qi Transformation
.
When he laid out everything on the ground before him, he thought that he should really start looking for a spatial artifact.
Of course, he could stop dreaming about a spatial pouch. He might have enough Swallow Fur to create one, but no one could create one with absolute certainty!
Shang Xia sighed silently. Well, he didn’t really care at that moment. It would be great even if he had an Embroidered Cloud Case!
There were three cloth bags that jingled when he placed them down on the ground. Even without opening them, Shang Xia knew what was inside.
Piling all the silver essence and bronze boards in the cloth bags together, he created a small stack. He decided to keep them in the hidden chamber for now. No one would be able to find it in a short amount of time anyway, and bringing so much silver essence with him would only hinder his movements.
Initially, only the Tongyou Peak used silver essence and bronze boards as currency. No one knew when, but the Four Spiritual Peak did the same, causing an unspoken unified currency in the battlefield between the two worlds.
That made the silver essence mines possessed by the Tongyou Peak even more valuable.
Next, Shang Xia turned to a rank three ingredient he laid out. The fellow called Ouyang Fengxuan actually had quite a few valuables on him! Not only did he possess the rank three ingredient, he also had two rank two ingredients! One of them was the Black Jade Whisker, the other was called the Silver Scale Sand.
Shang Xia wasn’t unfamiliar with the Black Jade Whisker. He heard his uncle, Shang Quan, bring it up once. The Black Jade Whisker wasn’t extremely valuable, but it was a great ingredient to use to create rank two ink!
The body of the Black Jade Whisker was completely black as the name suggested, but the surface shone like jade. Even though there wasn’t a lot of it, it was more than enough to create rank two ink for Shang Xia to be used for a long time.
As for the Silver Scale Sand, Shang Xia wasn’t too familiar with it. However, he heard that it was something that could only be obtained in the battlefield between two worlds and it was used in some medicine for cultivators to advance to the Martial Extremity Realm. It could also be used when creating graded weapons! It was worth quite a bit!
Shang Xia wouldn’t mind obtaining a few more of these precious ingredients.
However, the two rank two ingredients dimmed in comparison when he placed them beside the rank three one. That was a rank three ingredient they were talking about! Even Shang Xia hadn’t seen many of them!
Of course, he couldn’t recognize the ingredient in front of him. There were too many treasures in the world, and his knowledge was limited. He only managed to tell that it was a rank three ingredient from the heaven and earth qi it emitted. Of course, the talisman pasted on its surface helped a lot with his evaluation.
He once heard from his uncle that herbs that reached the third rank would develop their own consciousness or spirituality. If they wanted to maintain the effectiveness of the herb, they would have to suppress and store the spirituality of the herb with a suppression talisman. Otherwise, the spirituality of the herb would start to dissipate after being dug out from its original position and it would start to degrade!
Keeping the three treasures on himself, Shang Xia’s gaze landed on a piece of beast skin he obtained from Dongfang Mingrui. His eyes lit up again.
There was a complete advancement recipe into the Martial Extremity Realm. It was the exact formula Shang Bo told him to forget about, the Unstable Powder!
How coincidental was that?!
Even though he already guessed as much, he was still pretty surprised when he obtained the complete formula.
He might have already advanced to the Martial Extremity Realm and had no use for the formula, it was still a complete formula produced by the Zhu Family after countless years of research! Of course, the Powder of Purification he used during his advancement might not be worse than the Unstable Powder…
If he brought the formula out and handed it over to the Shang Clan or the institution, it would bring about a whole new level of benefits! It would collectively benefit all future cultivators!
Moreover, both sides would be extremely interested in an inheritance from the Zhu Family. Shang Xia wouldn’t have to worry about getting ripped off by either side!
After looking through the formula, he noticed that the Unstable Rock was the only main ingredient used in it.
Unlike the Powder of Purification which required several main ingredients, the Unstable Powder only had one main ingredient, the Unstable Rock!
That would mean that the Unstable Rock itself possessed the qualities of being both light and heavy! That was what really interested Shang Xia
After entering his current cultivation realm, Shang Xia gained a better understanding of cultivators at the Martial Extremity Realm. Training both types of qi was an incredible feat in the eyes of many cultivators, much less transforming his qi at will.
However, the Unstable Rock was an existence that contained both light and heavy qi! Shang Xia didn’t know if the Zhu Family had already learned about the true fusion of both types of qi, but the moment he released the formula, there would definitely be cultivators who managed to gain a better level of understanding behind training both types of qi.
Keeping the formula well, a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind.
Even though his Yin Yang Essence Qi could change to fit different attributes, what if he tried to use the properties of the Unstable Rock to learn a new type of transformation? At the moment, he could only transform his Yin Yang Essence Qi to possess the attributes of fire and ice, softness and strength, and void and reality!
After his experiment with the Unstable Rock earlier, he felt that it was actually possible.
The moment he poured his Yin Yang Essence Qi into the rock, he managed to feel the properties of both lightness and heaviness. He managed to transform his Yin Yang Essence Qi to replicate both properties easily.
Well. it seemed as though other than looking for a sword technique to fit his cultivation in fire and ice qi, he would have to look for another cultivation method!
The more he progressed down the path of cultivation, the more Shang Xia felt he didn’t know. After discovering lightness and heaviness qi, his journey towards the Yin Yang Sword Formation seemed to become even longer.
Whatever the case, he managed to progress a little on his path of cultivation! He was pretty pleased with himself.
All of a sudden, he discovered that the movements outside the hidden chamber had disappeared. He could no longer hear their conversations.
Pressing his ears against the hidden wall, he failed to hear their presence.
However, Shang Xia wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Their silence might just be a trap! He remained patiently in the hidden chamber.
The only thing he was afraid of was the appearance of the moon. If the moon were to rise, his location would definitely be exposed once they obtained the Fantasy Spiritual Pearl!
Wait a second…
The moment they managed to obtain the Fantasy Spiritual Pearl, they would be able to obtain the Mountain and Sea Fantasy Diagram… Wouldn’t that mean…
Retrieving the scroll, he started to pour his Yin Yang Essence Qi into it.
