Chapter 394: The Emperor's Full Recovery
Devour Heaven Technique from the Qingfeng Sect of the ethereal realm. The earth python's jaws gaped wide, swallowing all the ghostly water that surged from the ghost cave into its mouth. Its body rap...When Emperor Kun returned to Yin Feng Valley again, his aura was even stronger, and his injuries had recovered noticeably. Back within Yin Feng Valley, Emperor Kun felt even more at ease.
However, Lu Xia Tian didn't feel very comfortable staying in the tomb or even within Yin Feng Valley. So, he found a place by a stream outside Yin Feng Valley and built a bamboo hut there. Outside the bamboo hut, he also set up several simple formations. With Lu Xia Tian's skill in formation crafting, he couldn't create complex formations, but simple ones were no problem at all.
Every day, Lu Xia Tian would refine pills in his bamboo hut, while the second and third Yuanshen were constantly deducing formations as they recuperated with the Nourishing Soul Pills.
Apart from that, daily cultivation was indispensable. Then came the comprehension of sword intent, which had become even more profound. Lu Xia Tian pondered when he would have time to return to Lingxiao Palace or望月城 (look for some related martial arts manuals, to understand the specific use of sword intent. At this time, his sword intent was already quite powerful, and due to constant familiarity, using sword intent to attack and chop at the golden sword glow consumed much less mana. It was no longer like before, when a full-powered slash would seem to drain all the mana from his body.
Before entering the Yin Feng Valley and the time spent traveling back and forth to the Moonlit Forbidden Zone, Lu XiaTian had spent a year and five months here.

Lu Xia tian was like an ordinary cultivator in the mortal world. He greeted the rising sun early, sitting still and feeling the warmth of the sunlight. Doing so wouldn't increase his cultivation, but Lu Xia tian discovered by chance that it seemed to make his breath more peaceful. Before that, there had been a major battle with the Feiqi tribe, and then escaping danger and killing many enemy cultivators afterward. These Feiqi tribe members were experienced warriors with heavy murderous auras. As for the burly man Sha Ba and his dozen or so disciples, they were also ruthless killers.
After killing these people, Lu XiaTian would occasionally let out a terrifying killing intent. It was heart-wrenching and bone-chilling. Before, he relied on the Art of Concealing Breath to forcefully suppress his aura and prevent it from leaking out. However, his killing intent had accumulated more and more, and even when the Art of Concealing Breath was running, a trace would occasionally leak out. For Lu XiaTian, who had always required his aura to be concealed, this was undoubtedly very disadvantageous.
Killing intent will follow a person who is too ruthless in their actions. Even ordinary people, such as seasoned generals who have fought countless battles and killed many, will be affected by it. While cultivators have various techniques at their disposal, they also face stronger opponents when battling. As a result, the killing intent they acquire is often heavier.

Lu Xia Tian had also tried numerous times over the past year to refine the Jin Dan, but failed each time. He wasted a lot of spiritual materials and that string of failures inevitably left him feeling frustrated and agitated. His unstable state of mind caused the killing intent he had been suppressing with the Yin Xi Technique to suddenly erupt. Even the birds and beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests were startled and scattered by his sudden outburst.

Lu Xia Tian was also startled by the sudden leak of Qi. Since he had cultivated the Concealing Breath Technique, this had never happened to him before.
The failure to refine the Golden Pill left him disheartened. He decided to temporarily abandon this repetitive attempt and relax for a while, letting out his frustration. So he wandered aimlessly, taking in the sprawling mountains surrounding him. The towering peaks flowed with water, birds flew through the air, and animals roamed the land.
After a stroll around, I found that my mood had surprisingly become calmer, even the suppressed killing intent had lessened by a few points. Later, Lu Xiaotian returned to the bamboo hut to refine pills, but his attempt to refine the Golden Core Pill still failed. For this, Lu Xiaotian could only accept it calmly. It seemed that the breakthrough from intermediate alchemist to advanced alchemist was not so easy.
However, the unexpected joyride actually allowed Lu XiaTian to find a way to eliminate his killing intent. Apart from realizing the scenery between heaven and earth, this kind of quiet sitting could also have a corresponding effect.
Feeling the peacefulness of heaven and earth, Lu Xiaotien didn't even realize that he had unconsciously gained a tranquil aura of primordial harmony.

Lu Xia Tian, who was originally immersed in this sense of wonder, suddenly opened his eyes. He glanced at the distance, and a silvery-gray light flashed past.
With a whoosh, the tiger-headed and panther-bodied Emperor Kun, dragging its three tails, with a colorful feather on its forehead, silvery-grey elongated body, and its wings spread wide, flashed across the sky and landed beside Lu Xiaoteng. The silver glow of Emperor Kun's body was even brighter than before, clearly showing that after recovering from its serious injuries, Emperor Kun's strength had increased by several points.

After a moment, two sinister and eerie presences grew closer in the sky. They were Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang.
“Young Master Lu,” The two bowed respectfully to Lu Xia Tian as they descended from the air. Over this year, although they had been constantly helping Lu Xia Tian refine Yin Sha Fire Essence and were quite exhausted, they had also consumed several Soul Nurturing Pills. Not only were their injuries fully healed, but their cultivation had also improved.
They both just felt that the Lu Xiaotian before them seemed a little different from before. He used to be calm, even a bit cold. But now, there seemed to be more peace and a unique aura of harmony in him. He looked like a friendly young man next door. But they would never believe that the Lu Xiaotian before them was an ordinary young man.
From the changes in the other person's aura, it felt more spirited and introspective, returning to its original, simple state. I'm afraid that over the past year or so, the other party's cultivation has improved again. The two of them had already increased their strength, but when they thought of Lu Xia Tian's terrifying cultivation, they couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts.
“These are some Yin Sha Fire Essences refined according to Young Master's instructions.” The two men each took out a small bottle and handed it to Lu Xiaodao. As the strength of the two increased, and with Lu Xiaodao providing more resources, although this time was shorter, they had refined a few more Yin Sha Fire Essences.
"Well, this is the remaining reward for you. There are some things that the skinny ghost cultivator used inside. I believe you can use them too." Lu Xia Tian threw a storage bag to each of the two people respectively.
When the two opened the storage bag and glanced inside, their faces were filled with surprise. Apart from the extremely important Soul-Nourishing Pills, some of the things left behind by the emaciated ghost cultivator were equally invaluable to them. After all, the two of them were only at the Ghost Marquis stage, while the emaciated ghost cultivator was a formidable figure in the later stages. Their ghost dao artifacts and other auxiliary items were much better than what they had now.
“Thank you, young master. You are truly a benefactor to both of us,” Xiao Sanniang said with a smile, “I wonder if the young master will come back to Yinfeng Valley in the future”
"Unless something unexpected happens, he won't be coming." Lu Xia Tian smiled faintly. If it weren't for Emperor Kun's serious injuries this time, he wouldn't bother coming to this place filled with heavy, ominous energy.
