Cultivation Starts with Rejuvenation-Chapter 221 - 98: Building Up in Advance

Ever since eight months ago, after obtaining the Sacred Beast Pill, Gugu has been exceptionally diligent, always awaiting this day's arrival.

In the meantime, it dug a deep pit at the peak, reaching a hundred zhang underground, then Xiaoqiao guided the Earth Spiritual Mechanism for it, which turned out to be a good subterranean dwelling for it.

Three days later, Li Ji'an detailed the cautions for ingesting the Medicinal Guide and Sacred Beast Pill, urging it to pay close attention to any changes during the transformation. He then watched, with Xiaoqiao and Little Fire Spirit, as Gugu entered the underground hole.

The demon beast bloodline and human spirit roots share similarities, both being innate, theoretically determined at birth.

However, there is a possibility for demon beast bloodlines to undergo postnatal mutations.

Li Ji'an inferred from this that human spirit roots might also have a chance to break through their innate limits, except that humans have yet to find this method, or perhaps it existed in ancient times, only to be buried in the dust of history, yet to surface.

He was not in a hurry to alter the spirit roots, intending to first strive to achieve the limits of innate spirit roots in this lifetime before considering that.

Gugu entered the underground hole, adapted for a day, then followed Li Ji'an's guidance to first ingest the Medicinal Guide for refinement.

Li Ji'an sat steadily at the peak, his Divine Sense and the Spirit Contract with Gugu carefully sensing.

In the sensing, after the Medicinal Guide entered Gugu's body, its entire qi and blood began to disperse, becoming exceptionally thin, then suddenly the blood overflowed from the body surface, slowly streaming out Origin Essence Blood from the Demon Core's life source position, and the entire frog's aura dropped abruptly.

Until three hours later, its entire qi and blood, along with its Essence Blood, almost dropped to the extreme.

Li Ji'an nodded slowly; this was the effect of the Medicinal Guide. Before transforming the bloodline, it was necessary to weaken the lower-tier Essence Blood to ensure the infusion of high-tier bloodline, replacing the lower-tier bloodline as the dominant bloodline of the body.

The key to deciding the transformation effect of the bloodline, first, is the grade of the Origin Essence Blood of the main demon beast used to refine the Sacred Beast Pill and the quality of the Refined Pill; second is the degree to which the spirit pet dilutes its own bloodline.

Gugu originally had the lowest bloodline, with insufficient energy in the Origin Essence Blood, making it relatively easy and thorough to dilute.

"Good, both influencing factors are considered excellent, the result won't be too bad! Keep it up!"

Li Ji'an was somewhat hopeful.

Gugu then swallowed that Upper Grade Sacred Beast Pill.

Boom~ At the moment of refining the Sacred Beast Pill, the medicinal liquid transformed into surging Essence Blood and began to frantically impact Gugu's entire body.

Its already weakened own Essence Blood was almost instantly dispersed by the impact of the new Essence Blood, then began to replace its Essence Blood, merging into Gugu's limbs and body...

Observed for three days, once the high-tier Essence Blood completely took dominance, it began to infiltrate the Demon Core origin bit by bit, and this step is a gradual and assimilating process that is very slow.

However, by this point, it almost proclaimed the success of this transformation.

The specific improvement it can achieve will depend on the complete assimilation.

At the same time, Li Ji'an had some new understanding.

Gugu's bloodline transformation method might not be impossible to apply to human spirit roots.

He recorded all the details observed during this process onto a Jade Talisman, then stopped focusing on Gugu. As Liu Xuanting introduced at that time, this kind of bloodline transformation takes a short half-year to a long several years for genuine and complete assimilation, the longer the time indicating the more replacements of the Origin Essence, the better the effect of the bloodline transformation enhancement.

"Uncle Li, my Earth Spirit Scripture has improved again, not only has the sense range expanded to ten miles underground, but I can also condense earth essence," Xiaoqiao reported joyfully to Li Ji'an shortly afterward.

"Earth essence?" Li Ji'an smiled at her; Xiaoqiao's Earth Spirit Scripture was miraculous, and he couldn't discern anything from her physical state; her body, qi and blood, and magical power were still in the same condition as the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation before.

Xiaoqiao's face blossomed with a smile, a completely carefree, genuinely free smile, devoid of flattery or constraint.

"Yes!" Her eyes sparkled with star-like light, nodding repeatedly: "Its nurturing effect on plants growing on the earth is even better than the prior Spiritual Mechanism, look."

As she spoke, Xiaoqiao waved her hands lightly, pointing at a distant Medicinal Field.

The outermost small grass, visible to the naked eye, became more verdant by a fraction, appearing more vigorously alive.

"..." Li Ji'an suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Celestial Venerable's Little Green Bottle?

But after carefully examining the condition of the small grass, he shook his head with a smile; it didn't have that maturing effect, only imparting vitality.

"Fully focus it on that withered branch," Li Ji'an immediately instructed Xiaoqiao.

Since leaving the Abyssal Spiritual Eye, that withered branch had weaker vitality day by day, and two months ago Li Ji'an feared it might completely die out.

"Hmm. Don't worry, Uncle Li, I'll definitely revive it," Xiaoqiao confidently patted her chest.

After a year and a half of living on the Solitary Peak, Xiaoqiao's Essence Qi and spirit were getting better and more relaxed.

In the following year, Li Ji'an consolidated the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage realm, solidifying Magical Power.

He finally succeeded in crafting premium talismans of the Late Period.

A Moon Blade Talisman, a Golden Tripod Talisman, and a Divine Speed Talisman, nurturing the Dantian, each could exert fifty percent of the Fake Pill's power.

Coupled with the prototype of the shady lamp Magical Treasure embryo, he had the confidence to protect himself against the Fake Pill True Man.

Meanwhile, there was confidence in crafting the special Spirit Awakening Talisman included in this talisman heritage, then he could make another trip to the underground Stone Tomb in the Desert and open the third stone box.

The only lacking part now was the Second-Tier Late Stage Spiritual Bamboo needed as Talisman Materials for the Spirit Awakening Talisman.

Second-Tier Late Stage Spiritual Bamboo, whether used for Artifact Refining or Talisman Making, was in demand, and throughout the entire Cangyun State, only the Qin Family on Purple Bamboo Mountain produced it, which was hard for an average person to obtain.
