Chapter 773: Chapter 305: Abandoned Infant for a Million Years, Finally Achieves Purple Mansion (Ten Thousand-Word Combined Chapter) Part 6

"Meizhen, you’ve worked hard."

Liuu Meizhen shook her head, with a hint of exhaustion in her eyes:

"For the sake of my husband breaking through, this bit of hardship is nothing. The refinement of the Soul-Attracting Pill is extremely challenging; the timing of the heat and the fusion of medicinal materials must be precisely controlled. I thought that with several years of insight into the Pill Recipe, I could refine it smoothly, but the first batch failed at the last moment due to a slight error in timing."

"Meizhen, the Tier Three Soul-Attracting Pill is inherently more difficult to refine than an ordinary Tier Three Spirit Pill, with more variables. Failing on the first batch is inevitable. That you succeeded on the second batch is already quite commendable."

Liuu Meizhen smiled and nodded:

"Mm, fortunately, the second batch paid off, resulting in three pills. However, one is of low quality, while the other two are of medium quality."

"Husband, after consuming this Soul-Attracting Pill, you may experience a painful breakthrough process, so you must be prepared."

Fu Changsheng nodded.

He instructed on a few matters.

Then he announced his closed cultivation.

Returning to the Secret Chamber, Fu Changsheng looked at the dark green pill bottle in his hand, took a deep breath, and opened the lid. A rich medicinal fragrance spread out, with the two medium-quality pills in the bottle emitting a faint glow, while the low-quality pill shone much dimmer.

This opportunity to break through to the Purple Mansion was hard-won.

He carefully took out a medium-quality pill, properly storing the low-quality and the other medium-quality pill.

Following the mnemonic instructions of the Cyan Emperor Longevity Technique, Fu Changsheng sat cross-legged. His hands formed a complex Dharma Seal, resting peacefully on his knees, his eyes gently closed as if entering the Meditation Realm.

Next step.

He only needed to take the final step, awakening the soul, letting it transform into the Divine Soul, and relocate to the Niwan Palace, which would mark a true entry into the Purple Mansion!

In the world, there are mortals with frail souls, easily startled in dreams, a condition known as "Nightmare Disorder". Those afflicted will have gradually declining physical health and deteriorating memory.

But cultivators are different. Through years of meditation, the soul is nourished and strengthened by the blood qi and mana of the flesh, becoming incredibly resilient.

However, the stronger the soul, the harder it is to awaken.

Countless Foundation Establishment Cultivators are stuck at this level.

Shangguan Feng even fell into a coma as a result.

Thus, many cultivators aiming to open the Purple Mansion often use Spiritual Objects to stimulate awakening.

The Soul-Attracting Pill, for which Fu Changsheng painstakingly gathered materials to refine, is used to awaken the soul, nourish it, and during the soul’s move to the Purple Mansion, help the soul transform into the Divine Soul.

Fu Changsheng acted according to the secret art, raising his hand to ingest the Soul-Attracting Pill and then focused his energy on the Dantian. Inside his Dantian, golden mana wrapped with divine sense surged like a furious tide, rushing towards the meridian duct, and then forming into a powerful river of mana, rushing towards the Niwan Palace.

In an instant.

Rumble!

In the Niwan Palace, it was as if thunder had suddenly erupted.

A tremendous force uncontrollably burst open the Niwan Palace, as the golden torrent rushed into the earth, carving a river where none existed before.

Subsequently, a pale golden figure stepped on the torrent, entering this "Spiritual Land" of the Niwan Palace. This figure seemed like a deity descending to the mortal realm, effortlessly redirecting the torrent; with a flick of thought, grand buildings rose from the ground, truly omnipotent.

In the Secret Chamber, the Soul-Attracting Pill in Fu Changsheng’s mouth had unknowingly been crushed and swallowed. And in his Niwan Palace, the pale golden figure, appearing like a deity, was now sitting high on a throne within a magnificent palace.

Threads of golden mist spontaneously formed in the void, the essence of Spiritual Qi, absorbed by the pale golden figure. With each absorption, the figure became more solid.

After a long while, when no more Spiritual Qi appeared in the void, the pale golden figure had already formed a solid body, identical in appearance to Fu Changsheng’s physical form. Yet this body exuded a sense of majesty and sacredness, like a deity, thus it was indeed the Divine Soul of Fu Changsheng.

The Purple Mansion has now opened, with the Divine Soul manifesting.

Unbeknownst to Fu Changsheng, he had already completed the opening of the Purple Mansion, successfully advancing into the Purple Mansion Stage.

Fu Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, the brilliance in them flashing like a shooting star across the night sky. He could clearly feel the transformation within, a rebirth akin to forging a new self.

The most immediate was the increased lifespan.

He was pleasantly surprised to find his lifespan reached eight hundred years.

Eight hundred years, an incredibly long time from the perspective of a mortal, enough to witness the rise and fall of dynasties, the changing of seas and fields.

He understood this was a significant asset, for on the long and arduous road of cultivation, ample lifespan means more time to explore the Dao, find opportunities, and break through realms.

Secondly, the transformation of his divine sense was also very significant.

He could sense his divine sense, like invisible tendrils, spreading and extending around him, covering an area of twenty-four miles.

Within this twenty-four-mile range, every grass and tree, every insect and ant, was within his divine sense. It was as if he had formed an unprecedented connection with this piece of land, no longer just a passerby in this realm, but a part of it, capable of perceiving its many mysteries.

With the opening of the Purple Mansion, the mana within also underwent a qualitative change.

Previously, at the Foundation Establishment Stage, his mana, though abundant, still contained many impurities, running through the meridians like a stream mixed with silt.

Now, with the Upper and Lower Dantians traversed, under the dominion of the Divine Soul, the mana was refined and became purer, like golden threads, flowing smoothly through the meridians at a much faster pace. With every operation of mana, he could feel a powerful force surging within, filling him with confidence. Previously challenging Spirit Techniques were now easier to execute.

Fu Changsheng stood up and moved his body. He discovered that his physical strength had also seen a significant boost.

Before, though his body was nourished by Spiritual Qi, there were still weak points. Now, the Divine Soul in the Purple Mansion established a subtle connection with the body, with its power constantly nourishing the flesh like a gentle stream.

"Phew~"

He took a deep breath.

Fu Changsheng sat down cross-legged again, intending to first consolidate his cultivation before coming out of seclusion.

In a blink.

Three years had passed.

At this moment.

A familiar mechanized voice echoed in his mind.
