And on the last three days of every month, Xiao Lin would still go back to Qingzhu Peak, enter the Dharma Teaching Building, and humbly ask the uncles and uncles in the foundation building period for some cultivation issues.
Xiao Lin was originally worried that no one would irrigate the spiritual field after he left, but after experiments, he found that the spiritual grass in the spiritual field would have no effect if it was not irrigated within three to five days.
This also made Xiao Lin start taking three to five days every month to go back to Qingzhu Peak. On the one hand, he did not want to miss the time when the foundation-building monks sent by the sect each month taught the Dharma. On the other hand, he wanted to enter the sect.
Go to the academy to learn all kinds of knowledge about cultivation.
He has read the Qing Yan Treasure Rui no less than ten times, but he still has no idea what is recorded in it. This is not because he has a bad understanding, but because the ancient seal script in the Qing Yan Treasure Rui is very obscure, and there are many characters like Xiao Lin.
I have never seen it before, so I have no way of understanding its meaning.
Moreover, through the teachings of the foundation-building monks, the problems Xiao Lin encountered in his previous cultivation began to be solved one by one. For example, when he used to fight with others, if the mana input speed was too fast, it would pull the meridians and cause pain all over his body.
No matter what, even after the fight is over, this pain will continue for several days.
Through study and humbly asking for advice, Xiao Lin understood that this was mainly due to a problem with the connection between his old and new mana. Every spell will violently extract mana from the meridians at the moment it is cast. At this time, it is necessary to fill the meridians of the body with mana in the Dantian.
among.
At the moment when the spell is cast, the mana in the body will continue to be absorbed. Only by filling the whole body with mana can we avoid the mana in the meridians being suddenly emptied due to the completion of the spell, which will cause the meridians to shrink, and the mana in the Dantian will wander through the meridians again.
At this time, the meridians will expand again. Such shrinking and swelling will naturally cause discomfort in the meridians, resulting in endless pain.
In the process of learning, Xiao Lin also understood that cultivators usually put their practice of spells after foundation building. The main reason is naturally that the longevity of monks in the Qi refining stage is no different from ordinary people, and for cultivators in the Qi refining stage,
, the best age for foundation building is before the age of thirty.
After this period of time, the success rate of foundation building will be greatly reduced, so when those masters and uncles in the foundation building period teach the method, they will emphasize not to put too much energy and time into the practice of magic before foundation building.
above.
After thinking for a long time, Xiao Lin also decided to suspend the practice of magic. He also gave up the idea of going to the fairy city to see the seal.
It can be said that before joining the sect, he practiced spells desperately in order to improve his combat power. Fortunately, he was able to pick the Purple Spirit Flower in the cave trial and join the five major sects. Now this goal has been achieved.
Xiao Lin naturally no longer needs to spend time on practicing spells. What he is most urgent about now is to refine the Five Elements Spirit Pill and improve his cultivation level. Only by reaching the Great Perfection state of the Qi Refining Stage as soon as possible can he try to build the foundation.
On this day, Xiao Lin, who was meditating in the alchemy room, opened his eyes. Although the mana was flowing in his body, there was still a trace of helplessness on his face, even though he knew that his spiritual root qualification was the true spiritual root of the ice attribute, and this
The spiritual energy on the spiritual field is also very rich, but this cultivation speed still makes him extremely dissatisfied.
The feeling of taking the elixir to increase one's cultivation level made him recall it endlessly, but after Xiao Lin thought about it for a moment, a smile appeared on his face again.
Two crops of Five Elements Spirit Grass have been harvested in the spirit wood space, and there are dozens of them. As for Ice Yin Grass and Fire Scale Fruit, since they are only auxiliary medicinal materials, there is not much demand. Although only one crop was harvested, it is not
It's barely enough.
It's just that there are still some common auxiliary herbs missing. Although these auxiliary herbs are available in Uncle Tao's stone palace, Xiao Lin does not dare to use them easily. If he is discovered, his secret may be leaked.
After thinking about it, Xiao Lin decided to go to Xueling Fairy City to purchase more auxiliary herbs so that he could start refining the Five Elements elixir.
In addition to the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, and more importantly, the Foundation Establishment Pill, Xiao Lin decided to refine it himself after getting the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill. In addition to the precious purple spirit flower, Xiao Lin also decided to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill himself.
The most important thing is a kind of spiritual grass called dust grass.
The rest of the auxiliary herbs are relatively common. In Xiao Lin's opinion, he can prepare them all by himself only by going to Xueling Fairy City.
But the dust-cleansing grass is also a precious second-level spiritual grass, and the dust-cleansing grass used to refine the foundation-building pill needs to be at least one hundred and twenty years old, which is the fully mature stage.
Although the Dust Cleansing Grass is precious, it is not unavailable in Dancao Mountain, because Xiao Lin learned from Uncle Tao's letter that the reason why the Foundation Establishment Pill is precious is actually the bottleneck mainly lies in the Purple Spirit Flower and the Dust Cleansing Grass.
In contrast, it can be cultivated through spiritual fields.
However, the spiritual fields for cultivating purpurea are all dedicated spiritual fields, and the number is not too large. After all, no matter how much purpurea is planted, if there are not enough purple spirit flowers, it will be of little use.
However, regardless of whether he could get the dust-cleansing grass from the sect, Xiao Lin decided to prepare the rest of the auxiliary herbs first, so that as long as he could get the dust-cleansing grass and cultivate it for a few times, he could start refining the foundation-building pill.
.
During the monthly teachings, the masters and uncles in the foundation building stage will also focus on explaining to them, the outer disciples in the Qi refining stage, the difficulties and precautions when building the foundation.
In the final analysis, a cultivator's foundation building is a sublimation of life levels. During the entire foundation building process, it will not only cleanse one's own turbidity, but also strengthen spiritual consciousness. More importantly, through foundation building, the cultivator can be compressed and purified again.
The magic power in Dantian.
Therefore, the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Building Stage may appear to be the same level of difference, but in reality they are worlds apart. Even in the world of cultivation, many monks would call this difference the difference between immortals and mortals.
From this we can see the gap between the two. While listening carefully, Xiao Lin couldn't help but think of the Nine Evils of Snow City. The one who is known as the head of the Nine Evils of Snow City has an outstanding reputation and is called the Nine Evils.
The main reason for being the most evil one is that he once fought against a Foundation Establishment Stage monk and even escaped from that Foundation Establishment Stage monk.
As for monks in the Qi refining stage who want to build the foundation, except for those favored by God such as Tianlinggen, they all need the assistance of the Foundation Establishment Pill. By swallowing the Foundation Establishment Pill, the turbid air on the body can be washed away and the blood can be refined and washed.
The effect of the marrow can then loosen the bottleneck of foundation building, thereby achieving the purpose of rebirth.
And there is no limit to the amount of foundation-building pills you can eat. During the process of listening to the teaching, Xiao Lin also learned that no matter how many times a monk fails to build a foundation, he can only swallow nine foundation-building pills at most in his lifetime.
If a monk in the Qi Refining Stage swallows nine Foundation-Building Pills and still cannot successfully build the Foundation, then this person is destined to be unable to build the Foundation in this life, and even taking more Foundation-Building Pills will not help.
When Xiao Lin heard this, his plan of refining a large amount of Foundation Establishment Pills to push himself into the Foundation Establishment Stage was completely shattered. However, after listening to the detailed description of the Foundation Establishment Stage Master who explained the process of Foundation Establishment,
After knowing the reason, Xiao Lin finally understood.
Foundation Establishment Pill is like a kind of elixir. When you take one pill, it can clear a person's body of turbid qi by the effect of the medicine. At this time, it hits the bottleneck. Compared with not taking Foundation Establishment Pill, the natural probability is higher.
Much bigger.
And this process has a limit. Assuming that taking one Foundation Establishment Pill can clear half of the turbid qi in the monk's body, then taking the second pill may only clear half of the remaining half of the turbid qi in the monk's body, and so on.
After taking a certain amount of Foundation Establishment Pills, either the effectiveness of the Foundation Establishment Pills itself is no longer enough to clear away the remaining turbidity in the monk's body.
Either the turbidity in the monk's body is too stubborn, and even the foundation-building pill cannot be removed. In this case, if this person wants to build the foundation again, it is nothing more than a dream.
But for the outer disciples of Dancao Mountain, there is no need to consider this concern, because even if the sect leader's own son wants to obtain nine foundation-building pills at once, it is basically impossible.
Even if it is a mortal spirit root, if there are nine foundation building pills, there is at least a 10 to 20% chance that the foundation building can be successful. Of course, Dancaoshan cannot waste all nine foundation building pills on an outer disciple of the mortal spirit root.
On the body.
Dancao Mountain distributes only a few dozen foundation-building pills every year. Compared with the tens of thousands of Qi-refining period outer disciples, they are nothing more than a drop in the bucket. Even these dozens of foundation-building pills are still more expensive within the sect.
When it comes to seniority, comprehensive factors such as background, qualifications, and cultivation are considered.
So although on the surface, in a sect like Dancaoshan, every outer sect disciple under the age of thirty-five who has reached the Great Perfection stage of Qi refining has the opportunity to obtain a Foundation Building Pill, in fact many people have to wait until
Even though I am seventy and eighty years old, I still haven’t had my turn.
This is also the main reason why every time the cave is opened, in addition to a large number of casual cultivators, there are also a large number of sect disciples participating, because in the five major sects, as long as you get a purple spirit flower through the cave trial, you can indeed
You can exchange this Purple Spirit Flower for a Foundation Establishment Pill, and you don't have to queue up so hard.
After understanding this, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel lucky. If he didn't have such a heaven-defying place as the Spirit Wood Space, even if he joined the five major sects, with his cultivation, qualifications and background, the probability of getting the Foundation Establishment Pill would be very high.
Not big.
At the same time, he also had a thought in his mind. In addition to the Purple Spirit Flower that he exchanged for the Dao Token, he also had three more. Should he directly exchange for the three Foundation Establishment Pills?
But as soon as this idea came up, Xiao Lin dismissed it. Not to mention whether three Foundation Establishment Pills could allow him to successfully build the Foundation, even if he really took out three Purple Spirit Flowers, there was a high probability that the Foundation Establishment Pill would
If you don't change it, you will suffer disaster as well.
Because it is very simple. If he takes out the Purple Spirit Flower, it means that he hid something secret during the trial in the cave, and the sect will definitely investigate the reason. By then, the secret of his spirit wood space will probably be very clear.
It's hard to hide.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lin stood up and was about to water the spiritual field, when there was a rapid knock on the door outside the stone door.
Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and then a helpless smile appeared on his face. Needless to say, the person knocking on the door must be Senior Brother Xiao. This Senior Brother has been disappearing from time to time since he took over the chores of taking care of the spiritual field.
Xiao Lin waved his hand and opened the stone door.
A childish but anxious face appeared outside the stone door.
