Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 19 – The Yin-Yang Great Grinding Refining Technique

A surge of spiritual energy swept out, and nine dragon eye-sized Ascension Pills fell in front of Ning Changge.

After days of experimentation, he had created a pill that could maximize the power of Lingzhi mushrooms, the Ascension Pill.

It was undoubtedly the best solution. Ning Changge had great confidence in his own insight.

In the same endeavor, no one could do better than him.

“Let’s try the effects of the Ascension Pill!”

Without further ado, Ning Changge stored the other eight Ascension Pills into a jade bottle he had prepared earlier and immediately swallowed one.

Boom!

The pill entered his stomach.

A large amount of spiritual energy immediately erupted. Ning Changge was not surprised but delighted. This was perfect!

The Eternal Verdant Art swiftly circulated, forming small vortexes in his dantian. The medicinal power was absorbed and refined, transforming into readily available spiritual energy.

Two hours later.

The Ascension Pill’s medicinal power was completely assimilated.

Ning Changge’s eyes lit up with surprise. He could clearly sense that his spiritual energy had increased significantly.

“Good! Very good! This speed is much faster than absorbing the ambient spiritual energy!”

After absorbing these nine Ascension Pills, he could smoothly advance to the Sixth layer of Qi Refining Realm.

His strength steadily increased, and the progress was astonishing.

“However, … the only thing to be cautious about is the pill’s toxicity.”

Ning Changge frowned. Medicines contained poison to some extent. Although the Eternal Verdant Art he created had a certain purifying effect on the pill’s toxicity, it wasn’t enough. He didn’t want it to affect his foundation in the slightest.

“Perhaps I can create a technique to expel the pill’s toxicity.”

He acted on his thought.

Ning Changge activated his Heavenly Eye, scrutinized his own body with his spiritual sense, and began scanning it repeatedly.

Finally, in the deepest part of his dantian, he found traces of insignificant pill toxicity.

Though it seemed small now, he would need to consume pills continuously in his future cultivation. Over time, the accumulation could become a serious problem, even potentially affecting his Dao.

This was something he couldn’t accept.

Ning Changge started experimenting.

However, it was easy to find pill toxicity but difficult to remove it. He tried various methods.

Until a moment.

The spiritual energy in his body transformed into a pair of grinding stones, gradually crushing the pill toxicity.

A gleam of light shone in Ning Changge’s eyes.

[You have observed your body, analyzed the essence of the pill toxicity, altered the rules of spiritual energy circulation, and transformed into Yin-Yang Grinding. You have created the Yin-Yang Great Grinding and Tempering Technique!]

With the technique’s completion, Ning Changge felt that the once tenacious pill toxicity was rapidly being crushed, expelled from his body, and dissipated into the world.

“Not only that, but this Yin-Yang Great Grinding and Tempering Technique can also refine my spiritual energy, enhancing its quality and making my combat power even stronger!”

Ning Changge’s eyes sparkled with joy.

It was a double blessing.

“I don’t need to worry about pill toxicity in the future. I can digest Ascension Pills quickly, just need to ensure my foundation remains stable!”

Ning Changge couldn’t help but smile.

…

At the foot of Mount Song.

Song Yuanqiao and his group, dusty from their journey, finally arrived and met with representatives from the other four sects.

A few days ago, they received a letter from Yue Buqun, stating that Zuo Lengchan was gathering the leaders of the four sects at Mount Song. His intentions were clear: he wanted to discuss the merger of the Five Mountain Sword Sects. His ambitious motives were apparent to everyone.

Although the letter proposed merging the Five Mountain Sword Sects, in reality, it meant Zuo Lengchan wanted to absorb the four major sects and become the sole leader.

Yue Buqun and the others naturally refused. They immediately invited Song Yuanqiao’s group, fearing that Zuo Lengchan would try to take advantage of this situation.

Upon meeting with Song Yuanqiao and the others, Yue Buqun’s expression shifted from joy to something more complicated. He occasionally glanced behind the Wudang group, and Mr. Mo couldn’t help but ask:

“Master Song, isn’t Young Master Ning here with you?”

Song Yuanqiao only bowed politely and said:

“I apologize, but Junior Martial Brother is at a crucial stage of cultivation. It’s inconvenient for him to leave the mountain. Rest assured, Zuo Lengchan is no match for us.”

As he spoke, the auras of the Seven Heroes of Wudang burst forth, especially those of Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Cuishan, who had reached the pinnacle of the Master level. The expressions of Yue Buqun and the others changed.

Just how much time had passed?

Song Yuanqiao and the others had made such tremendous progress in their strength.

Master level, especially the pinnacle of the Master level, was already enough to crush the sect leaders of the four sects.

However, immediately after, Yue Buqun’s face showed a wry smile.

“Master Song, it’s great news that your strength has increased, but you may not know this, but we received information three days ago that Zuo Lengchan has advanced to the Grandmaster realm using a sinister technique!”

The difference between a Master and a Grandmaster might seem small, but in reality, it was vast. Grandmasters possessed a terrifying level of internal energy, and every step forward significantly increased their strength. Zuo Lengchan, having reached the Grandmaster realm, felt confident enough to raise the matter of merging the Five Mountain Sword Sects once again.

Song Yuanqiao and the others were surprised, but they weren’t flustered. The numerous talismans and inscriptions prepared by their junior martial brother gave them great confidence. Their junior brother had said that it could defeat a Grandmaster, so they believed him.

“How about we request a few more days, Master Song? Let’s ask Young Master Ning to come as soon as possible?” Yue Buqun proposed.

Song Yuanqiao flatly rejected: “If you don’t trust us, we can leave right now. A mere Grandmaster realm opponent is nothing to fear.”

He showed no fear towards a Grandmaster, which puzzled Yue Buqun and the others. They wondered why Song Yuanqiao was so confident.

Nevertheless, they all chuckled and said: “How could we not trust Master Song? We just thought it might be safer to wait for him.”

In fact, they understood that it was impossible for Young Master Ning to arrive in time. Wudang was far from their current location, and by the time he arrived, Zuo Lengchan might have already attacked the four sects.

Now the arrow set on the bow string had been set loose.

Yue Buqun and the others had no choice but to bit the bullet and choose to believe in Wudang. They had initially chosen to join hands with Wudang because of the transcendent vision Ning Changge had caused that day, but they hadn’t anticipated Ning Changge to not come.

Song Yuanqiao and the others agreed to their proposal. Yue Buqun and others’ lack of trust in them had caused them to be slightly unhappy.

“In that case, Master Song, you guys stay in ambush at the foot of the mountain, while we go up the mountain first. If Zuo Lengchan truly wishes to act, I’ll send a signal flare, and you can come and take him by surprise and kill him!”

Yue Buqun simply refused to think about it any further.

Seven Master, including two peak realm Masters, how could they alone deal with Zuo Lengchan?

No matter what, they could still fall back on Zhang Sanfeng’s tiger hide for protection!

[Note: “To pull/ fall back on someone’s tiger skin/ hide” is to rely on someone else’s reputation.].

He calculated a lot of things in his mind and came to the decision.

Song Yuanqiao was calm. This method could also work; this way, they would be acting under a righteous banner.

“Very well, we’ll wait at the foot of the mountain for your signal.”

The two parties had finished their discussion.

Everyone from the four sects used their skills to travel up the mountain together, while everyone in Wudang’s camp found a covert place to bide for time.

Just two hours later, a bright signal arrow shot into the sky above Mount Song.

Song Yuanqiao and the others’ expressions hardened.

“Zuo Lengchan has indeed made his move! Let’s go! We need to rush to their rescue!”
