Chapter 94: Cultivation Technique Breakthrough!

If he could obtain the second half of the Ancient Spirit Mysterious Art, he would be able to further complete his Golden Crow Body Tempering Art. Moreover, according to the sect master, he would be able to cultivate the technique until the nascent soul realm!
This undoubtedly provided Li Ming with much more room to grow!
“My name is Fan Shuang. I am the 23rd sect master of the Divine Will Sect. Since you are a fifth-grade pill refiner, you can be the chief guest of the Divine
Will Sect while being the tenth consecrator at the same time.”
“In the future, the Divine Will Sect will not restrict you. However, during this time, you will still need to refine pills for the sect.”
Sect Master Fan Shuang spoke. Her voice was light but powerful.
Every single one of her words was clearly transmitted into Li Ming’s ears.
Above the consecrators, there was the chief guest!
Li Ming had thought that it was already a great favor for the great elder to have directly made him the tenth consecrator. He did not expect that the sect master would give him an even greater standing!
The chief guest was not restricted.
This was clearly for the sake of his future!
After all, although the Divine Will Sect was the number one sect in the Heavenly Southern Region and had a high status in the Eastern Continent, that was only true in the Eastern Continent.
The world consisted of much more than just the Eastern Continent!
The world of cultivation has developed for tens of thousands of years. The world was vast and boundless. What Li Ming had seen was just the tip of the iceberg or a drop in the ocean.
Fan Shuang was obviously considering Li Ming’s future.
That was why she gave him such preferential treatment.
Once he was restricted by the sect, no matter how talented Li Ming was, he would not be able to advance or improve.
Li Ming was touched by the sect master’s actions.
“However, while the great elder has said that you are already a fifth-grade pill refiner, I have never seen you in action before.”
“It just so happens that I’m still one step away from the soul formation realm. The pill I need is also the fifth-grade soul concentration pill. If you can refine it, then what I said before will naturally come true.”
“To make it easier for you to refine the pill, you can cultivate here during the sect competition.”
Hearing Fan Shuang’s words, Li Ming was amazed.
It turned out that Fan Shuang had already reached the advanced stage of the nascent soul realm. She was only one step away from reaching the soul formation realm!
With such cultivation, she was probably the strongest in the Eastern Continent!
Li Ming had no intention of rejecting the sect master’s request and the rewards.
This was the sect master’s cultivation ground, and the spiritual qi here was extremely abundant. It was obviously the best place for cultivation.
Naturally, it was also the most precious part of the Divine Will Sect.
By cultivating here, once he fused the portion of the Ancient Spirit Mysterious
Art he just received with his cultivation technique and advanced in the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, it was very likely for him to make a breakthrough from the foundation establishment realm and reach the core formation realm!
With the rewards that Fan Shuang promised, Li Ming was naturally willing to refine the pill for her.
“Don’t worry, Sect Master. I will not fail this task.” Li Ming agreed and did not dawdle.
In any case, the sect would provide him the materials.
He only needed to focus on refining the pill.
A fifth-grade medicinal pill, the soul concentration pill. This was a genuine fifth-grade medicinal pill. It was not the same medicinal pill that he had managed to refine to the fifth-grade previously.
Although Li Ming’s pill refining experience was not as good as some other experienced pill refiners, with the many buffs he had from his entries, pill refinement became much easier for him.
Inside the cave abode, Li Ming familiarized himself with the recipe while Fan Shuang watched from the side.
After ten years of seclusion, she had reached a bottleneck. If she could successfully obtain this pill, she would have a greater chance of breaking through the shackles and becoming a soul formation cultivator!
At that time, the Divine Will Sect would be safe and sound in the sect competition!
Of course, this was only what she thought.
Although Li Ming was a fifth-grade pill refiner, whether or not he could really refine the pill successfully depended entirely on his luck.
It was not an easy task.
At this moment, after familiarizing himself with the pill formula, Li Ming immediately activated the Four Symbols Pill Refinement Technique. Then, with the help of the cauldron prepared by the sect master and the golden crow true fire, he began to refine the pill on the spot!
When the golden crow true fire emerged, Fan Shuang was shocked.
Although she knew that Li Ming cultivated the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, it was still very troublesome to turn the foundation establishment true fire into the golden crow true fire when at the foundation establishment realm!
Reaching the body cultivation foundation establishment realm was difficult in of itself.
It was like ascending to the heavens!
It was then even more challenging to form the golden crow true fire.
Therefore, Fan Shuang did not expect that Li Ming had already cultivated the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art to such a level!
He infused the golden crow true fire, refined the herbs, and extracted their essence.
However, Li Ming was relieved now.
He did not have to worry about controlling the refinement with his powerful soul.
He could even begin to study the Ancient Spirit Mysterious Art while refining the pills.
After many refinements, coupled with the help of his entries, Li Ming became extremely proficient in pill refinement.
At the final step of pill formation, the quality of the pill naturally depended on the number of spirit patterns.
From the fifth grade onwards, the more spirit patterns that appeared on the medicinal pills, the higher the quality.
The last step required Li Ming to personally manage things.
But this also meant that he did not need to worry as much when it came to the refinement of the medicinal ingredients.
Because of that, Li Ming was able to spare some focus on the Ancient Spirit Mysterious Art.
With the previous successful fusion as a precedent, Li Ming quickly found the key point this time.
The two were originally one.
After finding the incomplete part of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, Li Ming naturally began to fuse the two techniques!
As his body moved around, it looked like he was punching and twisting slowly, but the spiritual qi fluctuations that burst out with each swing were extremely powerful!
His cultivation was slowly loosening!
At the instant the Ancient Spirit Mysterious Art combined, the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art also successfully leveled up!
He had broken through from the thirteenth level to the fifteenth level!
Another two levels!
That might not seem like much, but Li Ming’s cultivation level instantly increased by a large margin!
At this moment, Li Ming could clearly sense that he was one step closer to the core formation realm!
Unfortunately, although he had fused the techniques and increased his cultivation by another level, he still could not break through and advance to
the core formation realm.
It seemed that if he wanted to truly reach the core formation realm and enter the golden core realm, he still needed a suitable opportunity!
Four hours later, Li Ming successfully finished refining the herbs.
In the end, this was still a genuine fifth-grade medicinal pill.
The herbs he refined were very precious. Fortunately, he had the golden crow true fire to speed up the refinement, allowing him to complete the refinement of the herbs in such a short time.
The condensation and refinement began.
Li Ming now fully immersed himself in the process of pill refinement.
This process naturally required some time.
Refining a genuine fifth-grade pill would take Li Ming several days.
During this time, the condensation and refinement of the pill were incredibly critical. These steps required his utmost care and attention.
Moreover, this was Li Ming’s first time refining a genuine fifth-grade medicinal pill, so he naturally needed to be more cautious.
Under the control of his mind and the help of his soul, the golden crow true fire condensed.
The essence of the medicinal ingredients began to be refined bit by bit.
The essences began condensing
Li Ming focused on controlling everything to avoid any accidents.
The entire process was slow.
For this, Li Ming spent a whole day!
On the third day.
The pill had just taken shape, and there was now only one final step left!
That was to engrave the spirit patterns!
Spirit patterns were the symbol of a fifth-grade medicinal pill.
And the engraving of the spirit patterns was naturally an extremely crucial step.
It was also the key step that would decide whether or not a medicinal pill could become a fifth-grade pill!
If he failed, the pill would self-destruct, and he would have to start all over again!
