I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 74: Refining the Vital Gu

The method of refining Vital Gu!

This was the Tri-Gu Sect’s core method and also the key to the sect’s ability to control Gu.

There were actually quite a few people who knew how to refine Gu in Southern Border. After all, the environment was too suitable for Gu refinement methods.

Some villagers even had inherited Gu refinement methods.

However, only the Tri-Gu Sect was famous for their Gu. The reason was because of this Vital Gu’s refinement method.

Gus were extremely savage due to the refinement method.

It did not mean that they would necessarily control them if one fed their Gu.

The backlash of a Gu was a huge problem.

Even if the Gu did not retaliate, wanting it to be obedient? This was also very difficult.

Under such circumstances, the founder of the Tri-Gu Sect created the method to refine the Vital Gu.

In order to turn a Gu into the Vital Gu, they had to use the power of their divine soul to refine it day and night until the human and the Gu became one.

In this way, whether it was cultivation or battle, one could gain battle strength out of thin air.

Take for example a human’s aptitude when it came to absorbing Spiritual Q.

Some people were born with a slow rate of absorbing Spiritual Qi, but if there was a Vital Gu, it would help such a person absorb Spiritual Qi.

And the main body would be able to take more time to polish other skills.

Just like Pill Masters, the Tri-Gu Pill Masters had always been more powerful than ordinary Pill Masters. These Pill Masters all had Vital Gu, so they could constantly refine their skills.

At the same time, their cultivation levels could not fall behind. One had to know that only high-level cultivators could only cultivate high-level pills.

The above-mentioned were just the supplementary effects of an ordinary Vital Gu for cultivation.

In battle, a Vital Gu could also play a role.

Some special Vital Gus could break out of the body at the later stages and sneak attack the enemy.

The battle directly changed from 1-vs-1 to 1-vs-2.

In conclusion, this Vital Gu was the most important entity for the Tri-Gu disciples.

‘Only the power of the divine soul?’

Zhou Feng carefully read the refining method of the Vital Gu.

He found that it was quite simple. The main point was that it consumed the power of the divine soul, which was very unfriendly to cultivators who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm.

The soul power was converted from the spiritual power in one’s body.

Moreover, the conversion speed was very slow, and it was also affected by one’s Soul Altar grade.

A Grade-9 Soul Altar like Zhou Feng’s could convert roughly three wisps of soul power per day.

This was the speed. Even though the spiritual power in his body was abundant, he couldn’t continue to convert it.

‘Soul power, huh? I just happen to have the passive Soul Harvesting…’

Zhou Feng thought about it and decided first to refine the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.

It wasn’t difficult for Zhou Feng to obtain soul power as he had just obtained a tailor-made passive skill. It was just enough to increase soul power.

Saying that, Zhou Feng followed the refining method and circulated a wisp of soul power into the Demon-Devouring Gu.

He silently chanted a mysterious mantra.

During this process, Zhou Feng took the initiative to transfer his Spiritual Qi into the Demon-Devouring Gu’s mouth.

The Demon-Devouring Gu was still as greedy as before. It started to absorb the Spiritual Qi, and its attention was completely attracted to this side.

Taking this opportunity, he started to use his soul power to invade the Demon-Devouring Gu’s body.

Then, he used his soul power to leave his spirit aura on the Demon-Devouring Gu’s body.

After many days, his spiritual aura would completely contaminate the Demon-Devouring Gu’s body.

This way, the Vital Gu would be considered a preliminary success!

There were even more mysterious refining methods that exploited sunlight and moonlight. Unfortunately, there were only a few words on this jade slip and no record of the specific refining method.

Soon, the soul power that Zhou Fengcai had converted was used up.

If he wanted to continue refining, he would have to convert new wisps of soul power to continue.

‘Next, I will cultivate the Demon-Devouring Technique!’

After finishing the Vital Gu, he would cultivate the Demon-Devouring Technique and try his best to master the Demon-Devouring Seal.

After that, he should go and get a soul artifact!

That’s right! He had killed Jiang Jing and the Yun brothers previously, so he had their storage bags. He was pressed for time before, so he didn’t have time to inspect them.

Now was a good time to take a look. The Yun brothers probably didn’t have anything good, but Jiang Jing might!

After all, Jiang Jing was a serious Soul Altar cultivator, and he had heard that Jiang Jing had been gathering materials to forge a soul artifact previously.

Wouldn’t that be a great advantage for him?

Zhou Feng first opened the storage bags of the Yun brothers and carefully rechecked them.

Previously, he had only glanced at them briefly. Now that he had the time, he had to take a good look.

‘As expected, there aren’t any good things!’

The storage bags were basically filled with miscellaneous items, and he didn’t recognize most of them. But his intuition told him that there weren’t any good things.

Next, he opened Jiang Jing’s storage bag.

‘Is this the forging method of soul artifacts? I can take a look!’

This time, Zhou Feng found a book that recorded the forging method in Jiang Jing’s storage bag.

The name of this book was the Method of Smelting!

After reading through the whole book, this so-called Method of Smelting was to forcefully smelt all kinds of ores together and then smelt them over and over again.

After the smelting was completed, the smelting process must be repeated, and it must be supplemented by the power of blood and the soul. The smelting must be carried out until a piece of metal with spirituality was forged.

Finally, it should be nurtured on the Soul Altar and undergo a slow transformation.

Even with Zhou Feng’s insight, he could tell that this smelting method did not seem to be very brilliant.

Many of the descriptions in this book were very rough, and there were even some specific details that were not included.

‘This… didn’t divulge what kind of ore should be used!’

Zhou Feng felt a bit of a headache. Why did it seem so unreliable?

However, Jiang Jing was only a cultivator who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm. It was already very good that he had this kind of weapon-refining method.

Zhou Feng didn’t expect to obtain any high-level weapon refining method.

There were still some ores that Jiang Jing had collected in the storage bag. Zhou Feng didn’t recognize any of these ores.

‘Forget it! In any case, this is all for nothing! Why not go and refine a soul artifact by myself?

‘Perhaps I could also use this refining method to get an Artifact Refiner to refine a soul artifact for me?’

Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that he could go to the main peak to take a look.

Speaking of which, advancing to the Soul Altar realm should have a lot of benefits!

Moreover, he might be able to communicate with other Soul Altar cultivators.

The disadvantages of cultivating alone were too great. Cultivating alone was not enough; proper communication was vital.

‘And my current physical condition! There should be a way to resolve it!’

At this time, Zhou Feng thought of the internal injuries all over his body. These were the consequences of cultivating alone.

If he hadn’t checked his body’s condition, he wouldn’t have even noticed.
