If you can successfully gain insights from it, it will be of infinite benefit to your future cultivation path and improvement of your mental state.
Another point is that after the continuous battles and various consumptions along the way, the mana and spiritual consciousness in the Dantian are also in urgent need of recovery. Only after everything reaches its peak state is the best time to attack the second level of foundation building.
To put it bluntly, there is not much difference between the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Building Stage. The former is to convert the gasified mana into a liquid state, while the latter is trying to condense the liquid into a solid state, which is just to continuously strengthen the energy of the mana.
The mana in the Dantian of the monks on the first level of the foundation building has already entered a liquid state, but it has only barely reached it. Even a small part of it is still in a special state between gas and liquid. Now what Zhao Shoushou needs to do is to truly transform it into a liquid state.
, and try to strengthen the energy in every drop of liquid mana as much as possible.
That is to say, every drop of equal amount of mana must burst out as much fighting power as possible. This is also the so-called solid foundation.
Zhao Shoushou has been insisting on this point since he embarked on the path of cultivation. This is also a magic weapon that he, as a casual cultivator, can repeatedly save danger without any other help.
Of course, after successfully being promoted to the second level of Foundation Establishment, he still needs enough time to refine the longbow spiritual weapon he snatched. This is his first real and solid second-level low-grade spiritual weapon. He has to pay attention to it for future practice.
The importance of the road is naturally self-evident.
"Young master has been promoted to the foundation building stage, and he is still busy every day without any free time. What qualifications does Shui Zhihua have to continue to be lazy?" Shui Zhihua, who is responsible for taking care of the oasis above Linghu Lake, was also deeply touched.
In addition to taking care of the spiritual field, spiritual medicine garden, and spiritual plants every day, he also chose a location with the most spiritual power to meditate and practice. This was beyond Zhao Shoushou's expectation.
Of course, even if he knew about it, he wouldn't care. Attacking the Foundation Establishment without the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill is not a decision that every monk has the courage to make.
Even if Shui Zhihua is lucky enough to be promoted to Foundation Establishment in the future, Zhao Shoushou will still have the confidence to suppress him under the influence of the Blood Soul Seal. This is the confidence brought by strength.
It was already a month later when the mana and spiritual consciousness in Zhao Shoushou's Dantian returned to their peak state. On this day, Zhao Shoushou opened his eyes with a flash of light and took out three crystal beads from the storage bag.
"The second-order low-grade crystal beads are of great help to someone. The cave of the Jindan ancestor is really full of treasures." A look of yearning flashed in Zhao Shoushou's eyes.
In fact, this is just his misunderstanding. Although there are many treasures in Master Hammer Feng's cave, one is that he benefits from his status as a third-level high-grade weapon refiner, and the other is that he is alone and does not need extra expenditure, so he can accumulate a lot of treasures.
Few treasures.
In fact, for most of the ancestors in the golden elixir stage, they are actually in a state of being unable to make ends meet. Obviously this is his misunderstanding, and it does not affect his yearning for the condensed golden elixir.
The crystal bead is wrapped with a small stone layer. To refine it, you first need to peel off the layers like an egg shell. Of course, you need to be extremely vigilant and not be careless and damage its core origin.
During the refining process, it needs to be wrapped with mana, and it is refined layer by layer to form a perfect cycle in the Dantian.
This is not too difficult for the monks in the foundation building stage. After about a cup of tea, all the preparations have been completed. There are only three thumb-sized blue round stones between his hands. Whenever the mana is in
When it flows over it, a trace of the original power disappears.
It will take at least three years for the three crystal beads to be refined, which also means that Zhao Shoushou's retreat time is very long.
Fortunately, after being promoted to Foundation Establishment, you can officially start fasting. You only need enough mana to offset the body's need for food. There is no need to continue to prepare some fasting pills.
The original power is well-deserved, and it is slightly different from the normal refined spiritual power. Whenever Zhao Shoushou refines a ray of original power and enters his dantian, in addition to the increase in mana, there is also a special aura, immersed in it.
Enter Zhao Shoushou's Dantian.
However, this weak mist of energy has no effect on the improvement of cultivation. However, every time it blends into Dantian, Zhao Shoushou can clearly notice that the foundation of cultivation seems to be making up for it.
This special feeling seemed to be absent, so he didn't dare to believe too much. As for whether it would play any role in his future practice, he didn't dare to have high expectations.
Each crystal bead seems to be only the size of a fingernail, but because it is a solid existence, it is not easy to refine. Even if everything goes well, it will take a year. Fortunately, for the monks in the foundation building period, three to five years is not a long time.
It's too long-term, not to mention that when you immerse your mind completely in cultivation and notice that your cultivation level is improving bit by bit, time will pass by with almost no awareness.
The only change may be that without him knowing it, the desert oasis has ushered in small changes. Back then, Zhao Shoushou was a new member of the Foundation Establishment. He once killed a second-level low-grade sand lizard head-on and rescued a refiner of the Shen family.
A monk in the late stage of Qi.
Starting from this year, this Shen family monk not only recovered from his injuries, but also reached the tenth level of Qi training. He began to lead the family's spiritual camel caravan through the desert between Anzhou and Xianzhou again. Every time, he would end up in the desert oasis.
Take a break or two.
Under their propaganda, desert oasis has gradually become an inevitable choice for many small-scale caravans to rest and recuperate. Under the management of Shui Zhihua in the later stage of Qi refining, thousands of low-grade spiritual stones can be earned every year, which can be regarded as a
Not a bad start.
They even dedicated a spiritual field to plant a special kind of purple-leaf grass specially used to feed spiritual camels. It can be said that the harvest was quite fruitful. Of course, all of this was only possible under the awe of Zhao Shoushou, a monk in the foundation building stage.
Otherwise, how could these caravan monks who work part-time as bandits pay the spirit stones honestly? Even as the reputation of the desert oasis spreads, some merchants also want to rent some shops here, but they have not been approved by Zhao Shoushou and have not yet implemented it.
That's all.
One month, one year, two years, time passed by little by little. It was not until the middle of the second year, when the third crystal bead was halfway through refining, that Zhao Shoushou successfully broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the second level of foundation building.
This breakthrough didn't cause much trouble. I have been practicing diligently for more than ten years after being promoted to Foundation Establishment. Although I lacked the help of the elixir, my progress was slightly inferior. In addition, there were three crystal beads to help. Generally speaking, this time
Breakthroughs can be said to come naturally.
As mentioned above, on the second floor of the foundation building, apart from the complete transformation of the spiritual power in the Dantian, there are no other obvious differences. The breakthrough of a small bottleneck will naturally not cause changes in the natural celestial phenomena, so it can be described as calm.
, but it is not the best time to leave the country.
