It took these four seedlings three years to grow half a foot tall. Qingyang thought that it would take at least ten years for them to grow to three feet tall. Unexpectedly, the Drunken Fairy Gourd only evolved once and then it was completed. It seemed that it would take more than ten years for them to grow to three feet tall.
The time for these four seedlings to grow up will be shorter than I expected.
After looking at these four seedlings, Qingyang came to the bottom of the wine pavilion. Due to the increase in the number of alcoholic bees, the hive below was heard to be several times larger. The entire hive formed three distinct layers, and the inner layer was filled with alcoholic bees.
The Queen Bee's residence is surrounded by the territory of the six purple-backed Alcoholic Bees on the first floor. The remaining dozens of ordinary Alcoholic Bees all live on the outermost periphery, forming a strict hierarchical system with each other in an orderly manner.
In several of the hives, Qingyang also saw several unhatched alcoholic bees. It seems that as time goes by, the alcoholic bee colonies will become larger and larger, and then the space of this small wine booth will not be enough.
, and it is inconvenient to keep the hive here forever. When the peach trees and the like grow bigger, we will move them there.
Upgrading the Drunken Immortal Gourd also has many benefits for the alcoholic bees in him, but these alcoholic bees have just been upgraded, so the change this time is not very obvious, which is equivalent to the monk's upgrade from the first level to the second level in the foundation building stage.
, it looks like the third floor and is difficult to spot without careful observation.
Qingyang used his spiritual sense to carefully identify and found that not only the alcoholic queen bee, but also other alcoholic bees had improved more or less. This change was actually quite unnatural. If it happened so many times more, how could the alcoholic queen bee?
Doesn’t it evolve directly to the Golden Core stage?
After Qingyang broke through to the Qi refining stage, the strength gap between him and the Alcoholic Queen Bee has narrowed a bit. Now the Alcoholic Queen Bee is much closer to him, and gradually has a master-servant relationship. In the future, he will invite them to come out to help in battles and so on.
It will also be much easier.
In short, with this breakthrough, not only did Qingyang's cultivation level rise to the Qi refining stage, and he truly embarked on the road to immortality, the Drunk Immortal Gourd also underwent great changes, and many things in it also benefited. In the end, Qingyang's
The gains are much greater than simply breaking through in cultivation.
After leaving the Drunken Immortal Gourd, Qingyang began to figure out his plan. First, he went to see Lu Dingshan, Tian Shengcai and others. He hadn't seen them for three years and didn't know what level their cultivation had reached.
The second step was to change his identity. After he reached the Qi Refining Stage, he could transfer from the Miscellaneous Service Court to the Outer Court. From then on, he was an outer disciple of Qingfeng Hall.
Then I went to the Chuan Gong Academy to find a cultivation method suitable for my spiritual roots, and also to see if there was anything else worth learning there, such as alchemy techniques, etc. I didn’t know if it was difficult or not.
When you have free time, you also need to take time to go to the market. After breaking through to the Qi refining stage, the level of the Red Flame Sword is too low. You need to replace some practical magic weapons. In addition, you need to buy some spiritual wine and store it.
Find some spiritual grass seeds and replant them in the Drunk Immortal Gourd space.
Just as he sorted out his affairs, there was suddenly a wave of fluctuations in the formation outside the yard. Qingyang stood up and came to the gate, opening the protective formation outside. It was none other than Qingyang's old friend Lu Ding.
Mountain.
At this time, Lu Dingshan's brilliance was restrained, his eyes were bright, and his aura was very different from before. There was a hint of joy on his face. Seeing his refreshed look, Qingyang couldn't help but ask: "Lu Dingshan."
Senior brother, have you made a breakthrough?"
Qingyang had already expected that Lu Dingshan could break through to the Qi refining stage so quickly, and it was not something Lu Dingshan could have imagined that Qingyang could break through so quickly, so Lu Dingshan looked at Qingyang with shock on his face
, and also asked at the same time: "Junior Brother Qingyang, how come..."
The words of the two people were spoken almost at the same time. After the question was asked, both of them were stunned. Neither of them answered the other, but they laughed tacitly.
After laughing, Lu Dingshan said: "Let me tell you first. After I took over the handyman task, I practiced while doing the task. It took me two years to raise my cultivation to the peak of the ninth level of Kaimai Realm. After that, I resigned.
After completing the mission, he began to focus on breakthroughs, condensing his cultivation and compressing his true energy, and from time to time using the stupid methods taught by Senior Brother Qian to strengthen his soul's spiritual thoughts. It took a year, and he only broke through to the Qi refining stage in the past few days.
, there is no need to elaborate on the difficulties and obstacles involved. It just took me three years to break through. Junior Brother Qingyang was at the seventh level of the Pulse Opening Realm three years ago, how come he also broke through?"
The real reason must not be said casually, Qingyang said: "The back mountain of the Farming Garden is inaccessible, has sufficient spiritual energy, and is not disturbed by outsiders. It is a rare and good place for cultivation. I never leave there, practicing hard in seclusion day and night.
So it only took three years to raise my cultivation level from the seventh level of KaiMai Realm to the peak of the ninth level of KaiMai Realm."
Lu Dingshan asked in confusion: "The mission of the Farming and Planting Institute is so good? I would like to try it later."
At this time, Qingyang said again: "Brother Lu, you also know that I bought spiritual wine when I was in Yuling City, and among them was a jar of Wulingchun that had been stored for hundreds of years and cost five spiritual stones.
I prepared it in order to break through the Qi refining period. After I came back and tried it, I actually made a breakthrough. Even I couldn't believe it."
Qingyang's words were half true and half false. Lu Dingshan did know that Qingyang bought Baihua Wine in Yuling City. As for Wulingchun, he didn't know, let alone how Wulingchun was preserved until now. But he
He didn't look into it carefully, who didn't have some secrets? As a true friend, Qingyang successfully broke through to the Qi refining stage, he would only be happy and would not have other thoughts.
Lu Dingshan nodded and said: "Junior Brother Qingyang can really see far away. At that time, I didn't even dare to hope that I could join the Immortal Sect. How could I still think about how to break through the Qi Refining Stage? This also shows that Qingyang
With my junior brother’s foresight, it’s no wonder that I was able to break through the Qi refining stage before I was twenty.”
Qingyang smiled and said, "Senior Brother Lu came here specifically. Did he invite me to go to the outer courtyard with him?"
Lu Dingshan smiled and said: "How did I know that you would break through? I just came to see you and say goodbye by the way. Who knew that you had also become a Qi Refining monk, and now we can only go together."
The two joked for a while, and then left Qingyang's small courtyard together to find their other two acquaintances in the courtyard. Muleng and Sang Qinglan happened to be there. They hadn't seen each other for three years. Muleng's cultivation level
Having broken through to the peak of the ninth level of the Pulse Opening Realm, it seems that it is not far away from breaking through the Qi Refining Stage. For some unknown reason, Sang Qinglan's cultivation has only improved by one level, and she is still at the eighth level of the Pulse Opening Realm.
Seeing that Qingyang, who used to be lower than himself in cultivation, actually broke through to the Qi refining stage before them, one can imagine the feeling in Muleng and Sang Qinglan's hearts. Everyone chatted briefly and saw the two of them.
None of them were in high spirits, so Qingyang and Lu Dingshan had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.
