"Alright then."
Wen Rou thought for a moment and felt that incubating the Phoenix egg wouldn't really delay her time, so she nodded and agreed.
Mu Jinyu handed the Phoenix egg to her, after giving a few reminders.
The servant hurriedly ran up, stood at the doorway catching his breath, then walked in with a respectful expression, saying, "Honorable sirs, the room cards are ready."
With that, he respectfully handed over three cards that seemed neither gold nor jade.
"Okay." Mu Jinyu reached out to take them, "Thank you."
"No trouble, no trouble, should I take my leave now?" The servant waved his hand hurriedly.
"Yes." Mu Jinyu responded.
The servant bowed respectfully and retreated.
"Alright, I'm going to cultivate. If there's anything, crush the Jade Talisman, and I'll come and find you immediately."
Mu Jinyu reminded Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan once more, then left the Heavenly Rank Cultivation Chamber and went to his own chamber.
"Boom."
As Mu Jinyu pressed the mechanism, the extremely heavy stone gate slowly descended, completely sealing off the cultivation chamber.
After that, Mu Jinyu wasted no time and inserted the room card in his hand into the groove of the Spirit Activation Array.
Instantly, a vast and dense nature's spiritual energy surged from the ground, gathering into a fog in an instant, the spiritual energy lingering like mist.
"Comfortable."
Feeling like soaking in a hot spring, Mu Jinyu lazily stretched his waist, then sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion on the ground, and took out the Phoenix Saliva Grass he picked from the Phoenix Nest.
The Phoenix Saliva Grass was carefully nurtured by the Demon Phoenix, prepared to be consumed after its tribulation to heal injuries and stabilize its foundation.
However, by a twist of fate, it ended up in his hands.
Mu Jinyu chuckled lightly, muttering, "Phoenix Saliva Grass, this is much stronger than Blood Essence Crystal, I wonder to what extent my cultivation will rise after refining this whole plant..."
After mumbling a few words, Mu Jinyu slightly shook his head, dispelled the distracting thoughts, and reached out to pluck one of the leaves of the Phoenix Saliva Grass that was as blood jade-colored.
The Phoenix Saliva Grass had a total of two leaves, appearing like a Phoenix ready to spread its wings and soar. As Mu Jinyu plucked one leaf, tiny droplets of crimson liquid seeped out from the broken part.
It seemed like blood, or like lava, carrying a scorching hot breath.
Seeing this, Mu Jinyu, who intended to first take one leaf, quickly put his mouth to the broken part and swallowed the crimson liquid.
"Boom!"
As soon as the juice of the Phoenix Saliva Grass entered his stomach, a surge of energy burst forth from Mu Jinyu's mouth, then swept in all directions like a storm, permeating his entire body.
"Wow, is it so powerful?"
Mu Jinyu praised inwardly, not in a hurry to ingest the plucked leaf, but first closed his eyes to run the "Green Emperor's Wood Emperor Art" and refine this immense energy like tidal waves within his body.
Time slowly passed in cultivation.
Half a month had passed in a flash.
Within the chamber, the spiritual energy gathered and dispersed like mist, sometimes forming into a dragon, sometimes transforming into a phoenix, and sometimes like a Kunpeng reversing...
Mu Jinyu, sitting quietly on the meditation cushion, exhaled two streams of crimson Qi from his nose, like two red dragons.
His body emitted a blood-like crimson light, rendering the surrounding spiritual fog into a red sunset glow.
After half a month of cultivation, Mu Jinyu had successively consumed and refined the two leaves of the Phoenix Saliva Grass.
And his cultivation realm had successfully broken through from the Peak Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm to the Initial Fifth Layer Stage.
At this moment, the Green Emperor True Yuan within his body had become more viscous from the slight thickness after just breaking through the Fanxu Realm, like rice glue.
Cultivation in the Fanxu Realm not only involved comprehending Intent Domain and Domain but also gradually refining the True Yuan within their bodies from liquid to solid state.
By the time one reached the Peak Ninth Layer of the Fanxu Realm, the True Yuan within their bodies was almost refined into a mass of tempered steel, almost indistinguishable from an Iron Pellet.
When a cultivator fully integrates all the paths they have learned throughout their life, and makes them as one, the True Yuan condensed into a mass within their Dantian will glow anew as if polished wood lacquered to a shine, thus stepping fully into the Unity Realm Stage.
However, the Unity Realm is still too far away for Mu Jinyu; he must currently focus on how to break through the Late Stage of the Fanxu Realm.
"Whew..."
Mu Jinyu's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, he gently exhaled a mouthful of scorching Qi and rubbed his belly.
"Refining fire-type spiritual medicine with a wood attribute constitution is indeed tough..."
Mu Jinyu bitterly muttered to himself.
During this half month refining the Phoenix Saliva Grass, Mu Jinyu suffered greatly, finding it a lot more uncomfortable compared to his cultivation in the Heavenly Sword Pool and the Blood Essence Pool.
After all, he has already cultivated the Green Emperor's Wood Emperor Body, making his body akin to spirit wood, while the Phoenix Saliva Grass is a fire-type treasure medicine, making him feel like being set ablaze, akin to wood thrown into a furnace, immensely uncomfortable.
If not, it wouldn't have taken him nearly half a month just to refine two leaves.
"Time is a bit tight, need to hurry up with cultivation."
Mu Jinyu dared not waste more time; lest he couldn't make it to the Hidden Dragon Conference, he quickly rested for a bit, then hastily threw the last root of the Phoenix Saliva Grass into his mouth to refine.
"Boom!!"
The potency of the Phoenix Saliva Grass's root was far more potent than those two leaves.
Mu Jinyu almost felt as if he was going to refine himself while refining it.
Luckily, the Green Emperor's Wood Emperor Body, after all, was one of the divine bodies of the Five Ancient Emperors, barely able to withstand the Phoenix Saliva Grass.
After enduring for five hard days, the remaining days of cultivation felt much more comfortable for Mu Jinyu, like being in a hot spring again.
However, Mu Jinyu, immersed in his cultivation state, was unaware that as he had nearly refined the entire Phoenix Saliva Grass, the flesh and blood hidden beneath his skin, previously carrying strands of green light after cultivating the Green Emperor's Wood Emperor Body, were now also streaked with strands of crimson light...
Although he had not cultivated a fire-type cultivation technique, the Phoenix Saliva Grass's potency was too domineering, he seemed to be on the verge of forming a special constitution again...
If he could get his hands on the "Red Emperor Fire Emperor Technique", perhaps he could immediately cultivate another Five Emperors' Divine Body here and now!
However, Mu Jinyu remained unaware of this.
Being at a critical juncture in his cultivation, he completely had no time to pay attention to these things.
"Boom!"
With Mu Jinyu rapidly practicing the "Green Emperor's Wood Emperor Art", continuously refining the True Essence Power within him, like hammering an iron billet repeatedly, he finally broke through the bottleneck of the Sixth Layer of the Fanxu Realm...
From the Peak Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm, he reached the Early Sixth Stage Phase!
At the same time, his fire attribute constitution unknowingly took shape.
If one were to name his constitution, perhaps it could be called the Undying Phoenix Body!
"Boom!"
Also, when Mu Jinyu broke through to the Early Sixth Stage Phase and formed the Undying Phoenix Body.
The Dayan Imperial Capital, which had been clear and cloudless, suddenly rolled with dark clouds, with lightning flashing and arcs cracking...
Within the imperial capital, all cultivators with a Fire Spirit Root, or those who refined Fire Attribute True Essence through special means, at this moment, their fire-elemental energy involuntarily surged forth, radiating light and heat.
As if a Phoenix was emerging, with a hundred birds worshiping the Phoenix!
