Beast Taming Tower

Qi refining period!

This is the first step on the path to becoming an immortal.

The Qi Refining Stage can be divided into levels one to ten according to the level of cultivation.

Chen Xuan had just become an immortal cultivator and his realm was only the Qi Refining level.

After the Qi Refining Stage, there are several major realms: the Foundation Establishment Stage, the Core Formation Stage, the Nascent Soul Stage, the Spirit Transformation Stage, the Void Refining Stage, the Fusion Stage, the Mahayana Stage, and the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

Each major realm is further divided into four minor realms: early, middle, late, and great perfection.

The higher the realm, the stronger the cultivator's strength.

Correspondingly, the lifespan of cultivators will also increase accordingly.

For example, a cultivator in the foundation-building stage can only live for two hundred years.

After advancing to the Jindan stage, one’s lifespan can reach 500 years.

As for cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, their lifespan can be as long as a thousand years.

Compared to the short lifespan of ordinary people, this is truly longevity.

Chen Xuan thought that he had become an immortal cultivator and had inadvertently accomplished an act that defied heaven and changed his destiny. Two lines of tears instantly burst out of his eyes.

"Born towards death, and having such an opportunity, I certainly cannot miss such a good chance. I, Chen Xuan, will definitely become an immortal with a lifespan as long as the sky." Chen Xuan said excitedly.

After experiencing death, Chen Xuan understands the meaning of life more clearly.

At this moment, his mood suddenly became brighter.

An indescribable joy bloomed on his face.

Snapped!

He stretched his arms gently, and an extremely powerful force gathered from his body.

With a slight swing of the fist, a crisp sonic boom was heard.

"I have just become an immortal cultivator, and my strength has increased so much. In the future, as my realm rises, won't my strength become even stronger?"

The changes that came after becoming an immortal cultivator made Chen Xuan very excited.

Looking at the cold pool filled with incomparable spiritual energy, Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.

"Just now, I just touched the water of the cold pond with my fingers, and I became a cultivator. If I enter the cold pond to practice, will my realm improve faster?" Chen Xuan thought to himself.

Chen Xuan didn't hesitate and jumped directly into the cold pool.

Wow!

The extremely cold pool water around him rushed towards Chen Xuan's body at a rapid speed.

The dirt hidden in Chen Xuan's body was expelled from his body bit by bit under the flushing of the rich spiritual energy.

The spiritual power which was as thick as a needle tip gradually became as thick as a hair as it circulated on its own again and again.

Chen Xuan felt that his hearing, eyesight, and physical strength had also been greatly improved at this moment.

Compared to before, there is a world of difference.

He could hear clearly any movement within a ten-foot radius.

"Sure enough, this cold pool is of great help in improving my realm!"

Chen Xuan was overjoyed.

After practicing for three days and three nights in one go, the spiritual power that was as thick as a hair finally became as thick as a cotton thread.

This also means that Chen Xuan's realm has finally reached the second level of Qi Refining.

However, Chen Xuan clearly felt that his cultivation speed was not as fast as before.

"Why did the cultivation speed suddenly become so slow?"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

Check your body carefully.

Soon, Chen Xuan's face turned extremely ugly.

"This……"

I saw that there was an obvious layer of wrinkles on the surface of Chen Xuan's skin.

The vitality in the body was lost a lot.

This also means that his lifespan is much shorter than that of a normal cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage.

"Why is this happening?"

After a brief surprise, Chen Xuan thought seriously.

After carefully recalling the training process just now, Chen Xuan didn't know what he remembered, but suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Could it be..."

With a thought, Chen Xuan forced the spiritual power in his body to move forward.

As the spiritual power slowly circulated, Chen Xuan discovered that as his realm improved, the vitality in his body was gradually dissipating.

"As expected! When practicing in the cold pool, your realm will improve quickly, but your life span will also be sharply reduced."

After finding out the reason, Chen Xuan was not worried at all. Instead, he looked happy.

In the eyes of others, the method of consuming lifespan in exchange for realm is simply evil magic.

However, Chen Xuan knew very well that the path to becoming an immortal was very difficult.

For him, using his own lifespan in exchange for an improvement in realm is definitely a shortcut.

What's more, there are ways to make up for the lost lifespan.

"If I can successfully break through to the foundation-building stage, I will have a lifespan of 200 years. The loss of this lifespan can be fully made up."

Thinking of this, the last trace of worry in Chen Xuan's heart completely disappeared.

At this time, Chen Xuan did not continue to practice.

Instead, he took this opportunity to come near the stone pillar.

There is nothing special about the first four reliefs around the stone pillar.

As soon as Chen Xuan looked at the fifth relief of the old man, a golden light suddenly emerged from the old man's eyes.

Wow!

The golden light was like a sharp arrow, piercing directly into Chen Xuan's forehead.

The intense pain made Chen Xuan scream.

Fortunately, the golden light appeared quickly and disappeared even faster.

In just a moment, it disappeared completely.

Even the pain that Chen Xuan had felt was completely gone.

However, at this moment Chen Xuan discovered that there was a lot of complicated information in his mind.

With a thought, this information automatically turned into two thick books and was stored in Chen Xuan's mind.

One is called "The True Art of Controlling Spirits" and the other is called "Records of Strange Insects and Beasts".

"The true art of taming beasts? The record of strange insects and beasts? Could this be a true method of cultivating immortality?"

Chen Xuan was extremely surprised.

His mind moved again, and his concentration focused on the Secret of Controlling Spirits.

After a moment, the words in the True Art of Controlling Spirits automatically appeared in Chen Xuan's mind.

"The True Art of Controlling Spirits, the cultivation method created by True Lord Yuling, not only has the miraculous effect of improving cultivation, but also has the miraculous ability to control all beasts. Does it need to be practiced together with the Record of Strange Insects and Beasts?"

After reading only a few lines, Chen Xuan was completely attracted by the contents of the True Art of Controlling Spirits.

He finished reading the content of the Qi Refining Stage exercises in one breath, and when he continued reading, the originally clear text suddenly became blurry.

The stinging pain, like a needle prick, became more and more intense.

Having no choice, Chen Xuan could only stop and rest for a while.

After one stick of incense, the stinging pain completely disappeared.

Curious, Chen Xuan tried to continue reading the content of the exercises of Yuling Zhenjue after the Qi Refining Stage.

Just like the first time, the words after the Qi Refining Stage of the Yuling Zhen Jue not only became blurred in an instant, but also waves of stabbing pain emerged from the depths of Chen Xuan's mind.

However, when Chen Xuan was flipping through the Records of Strange Insects and Beasts, he did not see this phenomenon at all.

After thinking carefully for a while, Chen Xuan suddenly realized.

"It's probably because my current realm is too low and I'm not qualified to read the techniques of the Yuling Zhen Jue after the Qi Refining Stage. If that's the case, I might as well study the Record of Strange Insects and Beasts and the Yuling Zhen Jue's Qi Refining Stage techniques."

After finding out the reason, Chen Xuan came out of the cold pool.

He found a place and patiently comprehended the true art of controlling spirits and the records of strange insects and beasts.

The content of the True Art of Controlling Spirits is obscure and difficult to understand.

Especially without anyone to guide him, Chen Xuan's comprehension became much more difficult.

Fortunately, with his indomitable will, repeated contemplation and attempts, Chen Xuan finally fully comprehended the Qi Refining Stage exercises of the Yuling Zhen Jue after a month.

As for the Records of Strange Insects and Beasts, it was not difficult at all for Chen Xuan.

In the Records of Strange Insects and Exotic Beasts, the complicated text introductions and various pictures of strange insects and exotic beasts were memorized by Chen Xuan within this month.

Chen Xuan asked himself, as long as any kind of strange insect or beast appeared in front of him, he could instantly call out its name and accurately describe its habits.

……

call!

In the cold pool, pure spiritual energy rapidly gathered towards Chen Xuan.

As the vitality in Chen Xuan's body gradually consumed, Chen Xuan's realm was also steadily improving.

Now, the spiritual power in Chen Xuan's body has changed from the thickness of a cotton thread to the thickness of an incense stick.

The tremendous power filled Chen Xuan's body, making him feel even more powerful.

This is the sign of becoming a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining.

For some unknown reason, Chen Xuan suddenly stopped practicing.

His eyes were full of solemnity.
