Chapter 49 (1) Heaven and Earth Meat Pagoda

Building a foundation was the first step in opening the avenue of cultivation, so sometimes spiritual energy descended from the sky.

When a cultivator condensed a golden core, although it was important, it was not as important as the foundation laid in the previous level nor as important as the Nascent Soul in the next level.

Therefore, ordinary people often did not have a vision of heaven and earth when condensing a golden core.if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen

However, currently, the corners of Elder Hong's mouth twitched when he looked at Elder Zhang's sword formation encircling the small courtyard. From the sky fell a spherical spiritual blessing in red golden light.

Nevertheless, Elder Hong's reaction was not slow. His spiritual aura soon overflowed and he tapped a hiding talisman with his left hand and a phantom talisman with his right hand.

Immediately, Zhiqiong Peak was shrouded in a phantom of the peak's image from yesterday.

Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator passed by, as long as they didn't probe with their spiritual sense, they wouldn't find any abnormality.

After doing this, Elder Hong was shocked and looked up at the sky.

After counting four or five breaths, he saw that the golden aura of blessings from the sky had stopped.

"Second Senior Sister succeeded! I knew she would!"

Hang Wan'er raised her head and her face was flushed.

Yu Dong also smiled. "From now on, we can add a golden core supplement pill to the list of elixirs that Zhiqiong Peak can sell. Let me do the maths."

He looked up and his abacus moved quickly.

"It triggers a vision of heaven and earth, increases the potential of the future Dao and can be used for Golden Cores. At least 400,000 to 500,000 spirit stones, or converted to 100,000 middle-grade spirit stones."

'Ridiculous!'

Elder Hong snorted, "Since ancient times, there have been cases where a golden core produced visions. They are all century-old cultivators with extraordinary talents."

'How can this blessing be given by an elixir?'

Elder Zhang held his forehead and looked at his old friend speechlessly.

Elder Hong scolded Yu Dong seriously on the spot. "You are only in Foundation Building and don't know many Golden Cores. I have an Uncle Master who is currently in retreat. When he condensed a golden core, he also had this blessing. He reached the peak of Nascent Soul only slightly more than twenty years later."

"If it's ordinary cultivators, don't mention just eating one Golden Core Replenishing Pill. Even if they eat ten, don't even think about having this kind of vision. This is a reward given to a cultivator by heaven."

Yu Dong and the others were about to refute, but the courtyard door creaked open.

They immediately didn't care to manage this elder. They all excitedly surrounded the yellow figure.

"Second Senior Sister!"

"How is Third Senior Brother?"

Su Yu's expression was indifferent and she glanced at them helplessly at the moment. "It's not your senior brother's turn yet. Just now, it was Brother Qian who was testing the pill."

"Ah." Hang Wan'er was disappointed.

Yu Dong nodded. "Then it's the same as when I was the guinea pig."

Elder Hong was full of doubts. "The Golden Core inside is Qian Qingqiu from Yuqiong Peak?"

He had hosted martial arts competitions for many years and was familiar with several peaks' chief disciples.

After he heard Su Yu's confirmation, he immediately glanced at the small courtyard.

"You ask him to try the elixir?"

He looked at Su Yu and stretched out his face. "You are cautious and didn't directly let the disciple with broken golden core take the elixir."

However, he was dumbfounded.

'Who caused the blessings of heaven and earth just now!?'

'This is a vision of someone condensing a golden core. But it wasn't the injured Wei Zhao condensing the golden core again?'

'Who was that?'

Elder Hong looked at Su Yu in front of him with a pair of shocked eyes.

He looked at her carefully and confirmed that she was only in the middle stage of the Foundation Building level.

Su Yu nodded to greet him and soon turned to look at Elder Zhang and Xi Quan.if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen

"Elder Zhang, Brother Xi Quan, I made some omissions before. After Brother Qian took it, he would not wake up. Now, if Brother Xiquan is unwilling to try it, you can also enjoy some snacks before leaving."

Elder Zhang stroked his forehead and laughed, "Junior Niece Su, your medicinal pill is very powerful. Don't you know it yourself?"

"Xi Quan, hurry up and go to the small courtyard to test the golden core pill for Junior Niece Su. Remember, if you condense a golden core again, don't panic. Stay calm."

Xi Quan was about to light his next incense stick, but the fire at his fingertips trembled.

'Condensing a golden core again?'

Elder Hong raised his eyebrows in surprise, "What do you mean?"

He looked at Elder Zhang and felt that he was dreaming.

He immediately rushed into the small courtyard. He wanted to see for himself.

'What the **ck is hiding on this peak?'

This time, Hang Wan'er and others didn't stop him. Su Yu also stepped aside to let him pass.

Elder Zhang smiled slowly and entered the courtyard with Xi Quan.

After entering, the two elders' spiritual consciousness of a Nascent Soul's peak probed a little. No, no need to probe. They had already discovered it just with their bare eyes.

Qian Qingqiu was lying on the couch, infused with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. At this moment, the golden core in his body was clearly visible...

There were two golden cores!

One was a normal golden core peak, which was as big as a child's fist.

And the other one was as big as a football!

Elder Hong: ...

Xi Quan: "!"

Elder Zhang: "...!"

Although he had already seen someone building a foundation for the second time, he was still shocked when he saw a second golden core with his own eyes.

After five hundred years of practice, he had seen many geniuses. He had even written about geniuses in his files.

But someone with two golden cores, and one of them was so huge. Even his ancestors had never seen it!

"This is?"

Xi Quan looked at Qian Qingqiu. The second incense stick in his hand was almost broken by his fingers.

Yan Yan nodded to him.

Lu Yizhou smiled at him.

Hang Wan'er puffed her chest and raised her proud face.

In the end, Yu Dong, who opened the door to do business, warmly explained. "Senior Brother Xi Quan, this is the Golden Core Replenishing elixir refined by my senior sister."

"Before, when you practiced with us, Senior Sister kept a portion of Zhiqiong Peak's hospitality elixirs for you every day. But because of our low strength, we can't beat you within six incense sticks every day, causing you to leave in a hurry and not able to try it."

Yu Dong explained modestly.

Xi Quan was stunned.

So he missed a lot of things in those days.

"Silly thing! How can this old man have a disciple like you? Who would have a rare chance and refuse!" Only then did Elder Zhang knew about this matter. He looked at Xi Quan up and down with disappointment. "Junior Niece Su has fed you an opportunity to your mouth and you can still spit it out!"

Xi Quan: "..."

Elder Hong: "..."

Suddenly Elder Hong also thought of the Qi and Blood Pill that was 'fed to his mouth.'

His face twitched.

The two of them were shaking and soon saw Su Yu walking towards them with a white porcelain plate.

"Brother Xi Quan, I know you only stay outside for six sticks of incense every day. This is the golden core supplement elixir. You can take it back to Wanjian Mountain if it is too late."

After saying that, she handed the plate over.

Xi Quan immediately stretched out his hand. When he took the plate, he swept a glance from out of the corner of his eye to the large golden core inside of Qian Qingqiu.

Immediately, he felt his hands sunk as if he had been given a new future for his avenue of immortality.

As heavy as Mount Tai!

It was the first time he took a pill refined by Su Yu.

Elder Zhang and Elder Hong looked at him.

Xi Quan's mood fluctuated and he quickly placed all five sticks of incense left in his hand on the wooden table in front of him.

Elder Zhang's eyes twitched.

'Why are you doing this? It's unlucky.'

"Don't worry about the time. Your master will watch for you. When the time comes, I will take you back to Wanjian Mountain. You will not break your oath."

Xi Quan thanked his master and immediately opened the restriction covering the white dish.

This time, he saw a golden halo on the wide white plate.

He saw an elixir on the plate, which was round with golden light and no flaws.

The amazing thing was that the surface was like a mirror. The reflections of several of them faintly reflected on it.

The aura was cold, like the coldness of a sword.

"Is this a tonic pill?"

Xi Quan took the silver chopsticks from Su Yu's hand and the corners of his mouth stiffened.

He knew that Zhiqiong Peak kept their pills in bowls. It was not the first time he had seen it.

But he never took it.

"Different from other elixirs."

"Nonsense!" Elder Zhang stared at him. "Do you have to speak so much before you try it? Someone with six sticks of incense, why are you more verbose than others!"

Xi Quan: "..."

He forgot to burn the incense.

"Second Senior Sister, how come it is different from what Senior Brother Qian just took?"

Wei Zhao, who had just witnessed Qian Qingqiu's changes, was surprised when he saw it.

Xi Quan: "?"

Elder Zhang: "?"

Su Yu nodded with a blushing face, "This is the second version of the Golden Core Replenishing Pill, which is mainly adjusted according to your sword cultivator situation. I think it is more suitable for Brother Xi Quan."

Wei Zhao and the others were stunned.

Master Su encouraged, "If it doesn't work, Brother Xi Quan can also use the first version."

Xi Quan glanced at the burning incense and nodded immediately.

However, this elixir was like a big golden ball. He didn't know where to put his chopsticks.

"First, smash the shell of this Heavenly Pagoda Pill, and take it from the inside out." Su Yu explained and handed him a jade hammer.

"?"

'A heavenly pagoda?'

'Smash it down?'

Everyone froze.

'What is this way of taking elixir?'

Even Hang Wan'er and the other Zhiqiong Peak's disciples who had eaten a lot of elixirs gathered around curiously to watch.

"Okay, I'll try."

Xi Quan was also very excited. He was not afraid as his master would guard him.

He immediately took over the cool jade hammer and used one-half of his strength to smash the pill.

The surface of this golden core, which was shiny like a blade, cracked and then opened into a big hole.

In the cold hard shell, the aroma of oil came out steamingly.

Xi Quan was stunned and everyone came together to have a look.

Inside was an extremely thin layer stacked on each other, with wide bases and gradually narrowing to the top of the tower.

At first glance, there were twelve floors.

Su Yu came over. She took out the water-breaking sword which she had sterilized with spirit fire and cut this solemn meat pagoda in half.

This was her Golden Core Replenishing Pill version two.

The crust was an icy shell on the outside and the meal on the inside was layers of pagoda meat served with salted egg yolk and decorated with gold leaf.if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen

Eat the savory inside first, then use the outer shell for after-meal dessert.

Everyone was silent.

Was this an elixir?

Wasn't this what Nanxun's Competition Tower looked like!

There was a small round golden core inside the tower. Wasn't it like a disciple comprehending the sword heart in the Competition Tower and then condensing a golden core?

'This pill actually contains a small intention?!'

"Take it while it's hot." Su Yu reminded him with a smile.

Xi Quan woke up from the dream-like trance.

He looked at this pill and reminisced when he started pursuing the Dao with swordsmanship and stepped into the Golden Core level in Wanjian Mountain.

It seemed like the sky was so golden in his eyes.

He was in a trance. He picked up half of a chopstick and swallowed the small half of the golden core and pagoda together.

This first bite made him startled and even more stupefied.

The grease and fresh meat spewed from his mouth.

There was also a dense and firm taste, like a slightly salty egg yolk, and the fragrance swept through his mouth.

Xi Quan took a deep breath,

"This elixir is mellow and delicious but full of juice. The spiritual aura is pure and hot as if it contains fire. It is neither greasy, bitter, nor astringent, and the taste is light and thick."

Su Yu smiled with satisfaction.

Every time she heard the diner describe her dishes' multi-sensory stimulation, it was a great satisfaction for her.

"You can try that icy shell now." Su Yu invited him.

Before Xi Quan took a bite, he felt the slightest coolness from the shell.

Whether it was the flawless mirror-like gold colored foil, the temperature, or the feel of the first bite, it reminded him of the sword in his hand.

Xi Quan felt relieved for a while, closed his eyes and bit it down. However, he was stunned immediately.

'Hard.'

The hardness of this elixir was far greater than any elixir he had taken in the past.

Because of the coldness, the outer layer of this pill was almost as thick as crushed ice.

Su Yu nodded encouragingly at him. "Don't be afraid."

Elder Hong: "..."

'Don't be afraid...'

This kind of conversation was really incredible.

Soon, he heard a loud crackling sound coming from Xi Quan's mouth.

When he looked up, he saw Xi Quan took a half step back and chewed on the spot.

His expression changed every time he chewed.

The crackling sound continued in his mouth.

Everyone was stunned.

"The outer skin of this elixir is crusty, but when you bite it down," Xi Quan finally swallowed and was able to speak. "it quickly melted in the mouth. It is slightly sweet and swept away the oily taste in the mouth just now..."

Xi Quan closed his eyes.

In his mouth, there were four or five salty, sweet and delicious flavors, which were presented one by one, and finally stayed on the light and sweet aftertaste.

His fatigue from practicing for many days was swept away.

Su Yu nodded.

This work was a multi-layered duo of hot and cold, crisp and soft, salty and sweet in the mouth.

Each dish had its own theme and was suitable for diners.

This was Su Yu's cooking art.

"Then what?" Hang Wan'er recorded Xi Quan's experience in her jade slip for the handbook of medicinal pills.

Then, Xi Quan was silent.

He closed his eyes.

And he stood.

A golden light overflowed from his body...

His golden core jumped out of his body.

Aura dropped from the sky, rolled around him and surrounded his golden core!

Soon a circle formed around the outside of his golden core. A golden sword phantom faintly formed and the acquired spiritual energy wrapped layer after layer outside his golden core, condensing into a towering pagoda.

The golden light from the sky had not stopped. A spherical golden hard shell had condensed outside the pagoda!

Three layers of golden core!

A sword cultivator fought a lot. They always feared that their golden core would be broken.

It was okay... then wrap the golden core tightly and hid it in a pagoda!

Afraid the pagoda would be broken? It was okay. There was an even harder shell cover on the outside!

Everyone looked at Wei Zhao with green eyes.

His golden core was broken, so his second senior sister made three layers for him!

It was so good, so wonderful!

"Once I enter the golden core stage, I'll break it first myself." Hang Wan'er is already thinking about this.

"!"

"Hong Yun, what are you waiting for! Why don't you join hands with me to cover up this vision of heaven and earth!?" Elder Zhang roared.

Elder Hong: "!"

Even though it was the second time he heard these words, he was still very frightened!

After many days, the sun was shining.

On Zhiqiong Peak, Wei Zhao was dressed in a clean black suit, carrying a wide and cold red copper sword. He finally opened the door.

A piece of sunlight fell on him. In front of him was a group of happy and anxious brothers and sisters.

"Third Senior Brother!"

"Third Senior Brother, how are you?"

Wei Zhao's resolute face overflowed with a smile and he nodded towards them.

After a while, he bowed to the slender but tall figure in a yellow dress standing beside him.

"Second Senior Sister, without you, there would be no Wei Zhao today!"

His voice was sonorous, but his low eyes sparkled.

Hang Wan'er's eyes were red.

Yan Yan held his sword and quickly turned his head away.

Yu Dong smiled. His eyes were red, but he took his abacus and stepped forward. "Senior Brother Qian and Brother Xi Quan tried the pills for you. They were too embarrassed to leave in vain, so before they left, Senior Brother Qian left behind 300,000 spirit stones, while Senior Brother Xi Quan left 50,000 spirit stones. Each of them also signed an IOU of 200,000 and 450,000 spirit stones."

Hang Wan'er snorted immediately, "I hate it. You don't care about timing at all."

"Third Senior Brother, thank you for your patronage." Yu Dong stretched out his hand and handed out the jade slip.

Wei Zhao raised his head. His resolute expression was also overflowing with a hint of humor.

"Okay, I'll go to the secret realm now."

When he said this, everyone's expressions flashed a little weirdly.

Wei Zhao wondered, "Could it be that I have been in meditation for a long time?"

As soon as he said this, a majestic voice resounded to the top of Zhiqiong Peak.

"The third-class peak challenge to the second-class peak will be held in the Competition Tower."

"Please come as soon as possible."

Wei Zhao was stunned and looked at Su Yu hurriedly.

Su Yu put her hands behind her back, stepped on Hang Wan'er's red silk ribbons and smiled at him, "Let's go."

Everyone at Zhiqiong Peak was full of joy for Wei Zhao's revitalization. However, at the moment, they followed behind her with anticipation and nervousness, giving Wei Zhao the second position behind Su Yu.

"Third Senior Brother, I'm waiting for you." Hang Wan'er turned back happily.

Wei Zhao smiled and followed them solemnly.

In an instant, everyone paraded forward in a mighty manner towards the Competition Tower.

Second-class peak, here they come!
