Chapter 391: Marrow Refining
The marrow produces blood, which is the source of Qi and blood.
To refine the marrow is to go straight to the root of Qi and blood.
Therefore, refining the marrow is also called reversing the acquired into the innate. The warrior who has reached the level of refining the marrow is called the innate master. Innate represents transcendence, so the innate master is also called the martial saint.
Saint, extraordinary and otherworldly!
Qin Ziling insisted on entering the Wind and Thunder Small Barrier. His biggest goal was to use the special environment and opportunity of the Wind and Thunder Small Barrier to peek into the secret of marrow refining.
Now, his martial arts was about to reach the limit of refining the internal organs, and he was finally going to begin to explore the secrets of refining the marrow.
So these days, Qin Ziling began to comprehend the "Secret Method of Dragon and Tiger Thunder Sound Marrow Refining".
Every day when the four golden corpses took a lightning bath, he would feel the sensation of lightning striking his body through the golden corpses. Sometimes he would also take this opportunity to quietly listen to the wind whistling past, feeling the sound and force of the wind, as well as the changes in the energy of heaven and earth caused by it.
The four golden corpses had undergone dozens of days of tempering with thunder, and with the blood of the sixth-grade intermediate-level alien beast that Qin Ziling had luckily hunted later, the vitality that was constantly nourished in their bodies gathered in the position of their heads, forming a mass that could not be seen with the naked eye and could only be sensed with the mind.
This thing feels to Qin Ziling like the seed of life. Once it breaks out of the ground, the four golden corpses will become celestial corpses.
At that time, they were both under his control and yet had their own independent life and consciousness.
The reason why Qin Ziling decided to stay in this area for another five days before going to "Leigong Mountain" was not only because he wanted his strength to truly reach the peak limit of a grandmaster, but also because he wanted to wait for the four golden corpses to evolve into celestial corpses.
Once the Golden Corpse evolves into the Celestial Corpse, it is equivalent to the existence of a Xuan Master.
With their help, Qin Ziling will have greater confidence in going to "Leigong Mountain".
"Crack!" One day, Qin Ziling was wandering in the mountains looking for opportunities, when suddenly he sensed a sound as if something was breaking inside the corpse-raising ring.
Then, a childish voice sounded in Qin Ziling's mind.
"Owner!"
Qin Ziling showed a look of surprise, and his mind moved, and four poems appeared in front of him.
At this time, the four heads were no longer covered with golden scales, but colorful feathers, and its wings were no longer just flesh wings covered with golden scales, but wings covered with feathers.
Its four heads were blue, red, white and black respectively, and its neck and head were also covered with down. Its four pairs of originally dark eyes became fuller, but without irises. The entire eyeballs were pure black, revealing a hint of spirituality that had never been there before. Deeper inside, there was a faint flame flickering.
At this time, if people did not notice its eyes, they would never associate it with a zombie and would not know that its origin is a Yin object.
But the strong can still immediately feel the powerful evil death force in its body.
"Greetings, master!" The four beasts lowered their four heads and spoke directly this time.
"Okay, okay. There is yang in yin, yin in yang, death in life, and life in death. Now you have truly broken free from the limitations of zombies and become an extraordinary and otherworldly being, called a celestial corpse." Qin Ziling touched the four heads that had become plush and soft. He knew that their original power had not changed, but they had gained life spirituality and soul consciousness.
From that day on, their training and fighting against the enemy were no longer just instinctive, but were carried out with thought, just like birds and beasts that had awakened their minds and became demons. They began to understand how to breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like humans, and began to know how to use magic.
After the four heads evolved into celestial corpses, Qin Ziling's understanding of corpse refining became deeper. He began to increase his cultivation efforts on Ape Da, Ape Er and Bear Da in a more targeted manner.
On the fiftieth day after entering the Wind and Thunder Barrier.
Xiong Da finally broke through and became a celestial corpse, but Ying Bao’s foundation was too poor after all, and he only became a high-level golden corpse on this day.
After Ape Da and Ape Er became celestial corpses, they were covered with long golden ape hair, which made Qin Ziling easily think of the four great monkeys in mythology and legends from another world. He fantasized that one day, if he plucked out the long golden ape hair and blew it gently, it would transform into thousands of Ape Da and Ape Er. That would be so cool and awesome!
The big bear's fur was black, and he looked a little silly despite being tall and big, which made it easy for Qin Ziling to think of the black bear monster on the Black Wind Mountain in "Journey to the West".
"We are finally going to 'Leigong Mountain'."
On this day, Qin Ziling stood on the top of a mountain, looking into the distance at the huge mountain that was under the judgment of thunder and lightning, which looked like doomsday. His expression was solemn but with a hint of expectation.
Ever since he consumed the blood essence of a sixth-grade intermediate-level exotic beast, his organ refining had almost reached its limit.
These days, he ate half of the roasted meat of a sixth-grade intermediate-level exotic beast, and his internal organs had truly reached their limit.
No matter how much he replenishes himself now, his energy, blood and strength cannot be increased.
At this time, Qin Ziling was confident that his martial arts strength alone should be able to rival a sixth-grade intermediate alien beast. If his soul and magic power were taken into account, he would have the ability to defeat or even kill a sixth-grade intermediate alien beast.
There was no other way. These days, not counting the upper-grade fifth-level exotic beasts, just the sixth-grade exotic beasts, Qin Ziling had eaten the equivalent of three lower-grade sixth-level exotic beasts, a portion of the blood essence of a middle-grade sixth-level exotic beast, and half the meat of a middle-grade sixth-level exotic beast.
Only someone like Qin Ziling, who has a great foundation, practiced the three paths simultaneously, and activated the three kinds of bloodline supernatural powers, can endure this. If it were another grandmaster who dared to take this kind of tonic, he would have exploded and died long ago.
Therefore, Qin Ziling did not find it strange at all that he could rival a sixth-grade intermediate monster with his Grand Master level.
In order to cultivate to the foundation of great perfection, he suffered in agony worse than death for countless days and nights, and consumed countless tonic foods. Especially after entering the small wind and thunder barrier, the amount of tonic foods he consumed was unimaginable.
Qin Ziling even thought that it was a conservative estimate that it could even rival a sixth-grade mid-level exotic beast.
However, Qin Ziling still didn't dare to think about a sixth-grade upper-level exotic beast.
But if all means including the Heavenly Corpse were used together, Qin Ziling believed that he should be able to escape from the upper-level sixth-grade alien beast.
Half a day later, Qin Ziling stood on a plain twenty miles outside of Leigong Mountain.
Looking at the thick purple lightning shaped like dragons and snakes continuously falling down, the whole mountain was flashing with electric light and electric snakes were moving around. Qin Ziling's scalp felt numb. He now doubted whether it was the right choice for him to come here.
This place is simply a minefield. Qin Ziling doesn't think he can escape the fate of being electrocuted.
Sometimes, when the thick purple thunder struck down, the purple electric flashes spread out like tree roots, covering the mountain.
Even though he was more than twenty miles away, Qin Ziling could feel the purple thunder filled with a terrifying aura of violence and destruction. It was a kind of divine power and wrath that no one dared to resist!
"Since we're here, even if we can't get into the mountain, we have to get closer and take a look!"
Qin Ziling gritted his teeth and continued moving forward.
"What is that?" Qin Ziling was suddenly shocked and looked up at the huge mountain with shock in his eyes.
On the main peak of the giant mountain, thirty-six towering boulders stood in a circle around the dragon-snake-shaped purple thunder that connected the mountain to the sky.
From afar, you can see dragons and tigers fighting in every towering rock.
Qin Ziling swallowed hard and felt his throat a little dry.
Before this, the largest Leixun stone he had found was only as big as a basketball, and most of them were the size of goose eggs or chicken eggs.
He simply couldn't imagine how much wind and thunder energy was hidden in the towering and huge Leixun Stone on the main peak. If he really collected it, it could be used as a secret place for the sect to practice and passed down from generation to generation.
Qin Ziling had just swallowed hard when he saw a ray of sunlight shining in the middle of the Stonehenge, refracting billions of rays of light that changed in a myriad of ways.
"That must be a great treasure!" Qin Ziling swallowed hard again, "Sure enough, the greatest opportunity is in the most dangerous place, but the purple thunder is too terrifying. If I go up like this , I will definitely die! But such a great opportunity is right in front of me. If I give up, I will be unwilling, unwilling!"
Qin Ziling was spinning in place, stroking his chin constantly.
Suddenly, the sky brightened, and a flash of lightning like a golden dragon and snake pierced through the sky and the earth, as if splitting the sky and the earth in half.
“Boom!”
As lightning appeared, there was rumbling thunder.
The sky trembled and the mountains shook.
Even the space and earth around the giant mountain were shaking with thunder.
Lightning continued to fall, and the mountains, the earth, and the surrounding space were shaking and trembling.
Qin Ziling was standing four or five miles away from the foot of the mountain, and his whole body was shaking slightly involuntarily along with the earth's space.
At first, Qin Ziling didn't feel anything, but soon a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then very soon, his expression became unusually calm, and he even closed his eyes. He no longer looked at the thunder on the top of the mountain, but just listened carefully to the rolling thunder and felt the spatial fluctuations caused by the thunder transmitted to his body.
His bones began to emit a regular buzzing sound, as if resonating with the rumbling thunder outside.
Qin Ziling was blessed with a spiritual power, and he calmly guided his bones, trying to keep them consistent with the vibration of the outside world.
Gradually, Qin Ziling heard that the sound made by his bones was somewhat similar to the thunder between heaven and earth. After an unknown amount of time, Qin Ziling discovered that the sound made by his bones seemed to merge with the thunder from the outside world, as if it had become a part of the thunder of heaven and earth, indistinguishable from each other.
At this time, something wonderful happened.
Just as the sound of thunder causes all things in the space between heaven and earth to tremble, the thunder of the bones also begins to spread to the bone marrow which is well wrapped and protected inside it.
The bone marrow also began to tremble and shake.
The bone marrow vibrates rhythmically with the sound of thunder, just like a person using a sieve to wash gold sand. As the vibration becomes stronger and stronger, it is like a huge wave washing away the sand.
