After eating barbecue together, Lin Qianxuan prepared to return.

Before leaving, Lin Qianxuan asked Ye Mao and the others if they wanted to come along.

If they wanted to leave together, Lin Qianxuan could help.

He had the Qiankun Space, a space artifact that could hold people, allowing them to leave directly by evading detection.

However, Zhou Qingyun and the others stated they still had tasks to complete and wouldn't leave yet.

Lin Qianxuan didn't press them further.

Actually, the Otherworld Bureau also had methods to speed up the return.

That was by using Earth's factor to strengthen the connection before returning.

Indeed, since there are factors to enhance the connection with other worlds, there are naturally factors to enhance the connection with Earth.

However, the efficiency of ordinary factors is very low, nearly negligible.

Top-tier factors are also rare, so under normal circumstances, they're not used.

-----------------

Earth.

November 12th.

In the Qiankun Space.

Lin Qianxuan was browsing his phone, looking through the "Advanced Pill Theory Analysis" he had just exchanged from the Scripture Pavilion.

This was an official product of the Otherworld Bureau, sorted into a Human Dao version.

It detailed various principles of alchemy. Learning it was equivalent to learning alchemy itself, much stronger than simply studying hundreds of elixir recipes.

Because mastering alchemy principles allows one to write elixir recipes themselves.

The reason Lin Qianxuan learned this was that he had too many good things, more than he could consume in one go, so he decided to learn something.

Alchemy could speed up the digestion and absorption of these spiritual materials and treasures, and also allow him to achieve better effects when consuming them.

It took him over an hour to memorize the over seven million words of pill theory analysis thoroughly.

This was because he read it carefully; if he just memorized it, it would have been easier.

After finishing, Lin Qianxuan had essentially grasped the principles of alchemy.

It revolved around sensing properties, fusion, and augmentation.

Simply put, enhancing the medicinal properties of certain herbs, or suppressing their properties, and combining with other materials to create new properties.

Like chemistry and material science, but different.

If the perception is strong enough, and you understand the principles, you can even predict the general reaction direction in advance.

Even so, it's still necessary to conduct large-scale experimentation to possibly achieve good results.

Of course, Lin Qianxuan didn't find this troublesome.

His alchemy success rate was almost one hundred percent.

Casually picking some spirit grass and spirit fruit from the ground, Lin Qianxuan sat in front of an ordinary pill furnace forged from divine iron, ready to refine pills.

Before refining, his eyes flashed red, and lines of life marks flashed by; he knew what kind of elixirs these items could be refined into.

Experiment?

No need!

Just use divine energy and ask the magical Eyes of the Muddled Heaven.

Elixir recipes were easily summarized by Lin Qianxuan.

Among them, a few were specially marked by him.

"The grass from the Giant Wilderness Realm can react with spirit grass... After adding Giant Wilderness Beast Meat, the efficacy of this Qi Blood Pill can increase by fifty percent? Adding gold makes it easier to form a pill? Why? Gold becomes a solubilizer for pill materials from two worlds?"

After a while, Lin Qianxuan began to refine pills.

"130 grams of seven-leaf flower, 70 grams of brown vine leaf, 10 grams of black knot fruit core... 1 kilogram of Giant Wilderness Beast Meat... finally add 23 grams of gold..."

The spiritual power within Lin Qianxuan flowed, the magic was executed, and a flame burst from his palm. After being filtered and dispersed by the special structure of the pill furnace, it orderly entered inside, starting to scorch the herbal materials into medicinal liquid.

Ten minutes later, Lin Qianxuan manipulated the fusion of the medicinal liquid with his spirit, and a spiritual flame wrapped it. After two breaths, it transformed into a translucent pink elixir.

With a wave of his hand, the elixir fell into his palm.

Though he saw a successful result in his first pill refining, he didn't dare to make too many at once.

He carefully examined the elixir in his hand.

There were deep and shallow dan patterns on it, something that appears only when using spiritual materials with a high degree of fusion for refining.

Generally, having dan patterns indicates good elixirs and high alchemist skills.

Smelling it slightly, Lin Qianxuan murmured, "Same as what I saw with life marks."

Then he opened his mouth and swallowed it.

After the elixir entered, just like the Sixth Revolutions Bloodline Pill Lin Qianxuan ate before, it directly turned into a burst of energy absorbed by him.

It started slowly dispersing throughout his body.

Many elixirs don't need to be intentionally digested.

If the alchemist's skills are advanced enough, they can even be absorbed directly when taken externally.

A sweep of divine thought turns it into energy absorption.

Who would deliberately go through the digestive organs?

Low efficiency and slow absorption.

Without intentional refining, it wasn't long before Lin Qianxuan finished absorbing the Qi Blood Pill.

The result was the same as what he saw with his life marks.

Swallowing pills this way was much faster than normally eating spirit fruit or Giant Wilderness Beast Meat.

Moreover, it spared the body from filtering out impurities, greatly reducing organ strain.

This way, his cultivation progress could accelerate significantly.

Lin Qianxuan smiled and began a large-scale batch refinement of elixirs.

....

....

The time came to November 30th.

The Qingling World.

At this moment, Lin Qianxuan had already reached the Peak Core Formation stage in his cultivation.

Don't be fooled by his rapid advancement; in truth, he took advantage of the time difference from traveling through time.

To truly calculate it, he spent nearly half a year.

Next, he would cultivate the fourth level of the Spirit Absorption Technique.

The fourth level required imbuing the core with Dao, establishing the foundation to step into the Dao realm.

According to the description, one needs to inscribe the spiritual patterns of a particular magic technique onto the Golden Core, turning this magic technique into one's Lifebound Spirit Art, which can be instantaneously activated.

With the growth of one's cultivation and repeated use, this magic technique will merge with the Golden Core and genuinely become imprinted on it.

Gradually, it will undergo a qualitative change.

When the transformation is complete, one can step into the Dao realm.

Of course, this is not the only way to enter the Dao realm, nor is it the necessary path for spirit cultivators.

This is only the method of entering the Dao realm according to the Spirit Absorption Technique.

Lin Qianxuan, wanting to step into the Dao realm, could also pursue enhancing his bloodline strength and naturally awaken his bloodline divine abilities.

Or continue cultivating the Refining God path, perhaps achieving the Dao realm like Emperor Shenwu once did.

Yet, he wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket.

Refining God would be pursued, divine abilities would be awakened, and the Spirit Absorption Technique would not be neglected.

Lin Qianxuan had long decided what spirit art to inscribe on his Golden Core.

[Advanced Wind Control Art].

One of the top-tier spirit arts within the Otherworld Bureau.

Its overall capabilities were quite strong.

Utilizing this spirit art allows spiritual energy to transform into various forms of air currents for release.

It could be used for attack, defense, or even escape.

Many within the Otherworld Bureau had mastered this spirit art.

Essentially, frontline spirit cultivator warriors must learn a hand of [Wind Control Art] for emergencies.

Actually, Lin Qianxuan had considered other spirit arts beforehand.

Such as the [Little World Technique].

According to the Human Dao, Longshou chose this spirit art as his Lifebound Spirit Art.

But unfortunately, even though Lin Qianxuan barely understood [Little World Technique] under the dragon scale's [Enlightenment] aura, he still couldn't perform it and couldn't inscribe it on his Golden Core.

Who knows how Longshou managed to inscribe such a complex spirit art onto his Golden Core?

Was his divine thought a lithography machine?

No, even lithography machines aren't that extraordinary!

The deeper he understood, the more Lin Qianxuan felt Longshou was definitely a cheat.

And his cheat might be even bigger.

The dragon scale, transformed from the myriad phenomena, shined with golden light, enveloping Lin Qianxuan.

At the same time, complex spiritual patterns rapidly appeared on the Golden Core in his chest.

About ten minutes later, Lin Qianxuan opened his eyes.

At that moment, he had already stepped into the fourth level of the Spirit Absorption Technique, the realm of Core Imbued with Dao Seed.

In short, the "Core Imbued with Dao Realm."

With a thought, the spiritual patterns on Lin Qianxuan's Golden Core flickered, and an air current lifted him directly into the air.

Without any casting delay, he almost released this high-tier spirit art with zero delay.

This was the advantage of Lifebound Spirit Art.

It is said that before Longshou created the Spirit Absorption Technique, this realm did not exist.

Not even the Core Formation system existed.

Spirit cultivators in the Otherworld absorbed qi into their bodies, continuously reinforced their physique while strengthening their divine soul, and finally entered the Dao realm.

There was a system, but chaotic.

Each sect and school were different, lacking transition realms and paths; the chances of breaking through to the Dao realm were very low.

The paths between Dao realms were worlds apart.

Besides the destiny-clad children of fate, it was almost impossible to reach the Dao realm.

Until Longshou created the Spirit Absorption Technique, only then did Earth have a standard cultivation system, paving the way for attaining the Dao realm, and spirit cultivators gradually increased, with many sects even in the Spirit Qi World adopting this system.

After a slight test, Lin Qianxuan took out and consumed two pills, replenishing his depleted spiritual power.

He then muttered, "Given my current situation, I can surely attempt to ignite that wisp of flame, right?"

Over half a year, Lin Qianxuan had consumed untold millions of Spirit Crystals, the elixirs he refined had been consumed en masse, and the Thunder Lingzhi, not less than eight hundred blooms.

Enhancements to essence, spirit, and mind had strengthened him many times compared to the last flame ignition attempt.

Of course, before attempting, Lin Qianxuan chose first to use the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven to observe the marks of fate.

Although there had been no results in previous observations, he couldn't be sure that this time would be different.

His eyes flashed red, and the invisible karma weighed between him and the result he wished to see.

Vaguely, his own weight already surpassed that result, and he glimpsed this outcome.

A wisp of flame rose in the scene Lin Qianxuan was viewing.

It was so full of life, its crimson brilliance illuminated all directions.

A spark shot forth from it, and in an instant, spread tens of miles, incinerating everything around.

This fire burned everything, leaving nothing untouched.

And which it burned, all transformed into essence to replenish Lin Qianxuan himself.

It was extinction and rebirth.

What it extinguished was all things, what rebirthed was Lin Qianxuan himself.
