Not long after returning to the useless alchemy room, the Demonic Appearance Technique lost its effect. Fortunately, he had timed it well. Lin Xuan sat down cross-legged and started practicing.
Six hours passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Xuan took a sip of the green liquid of red silk grass and used the magical disguise technique again. This time he turned into a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion.
Lin Xuan plans to go to the medicine garden and exchange the Marrow Cleansing Pill for some ginseng.
The reason why he didn't use his true appearance was because he didn't want to attract other people's attention. As his cultivation deepened, Lin Xuan realized that there would be many opportunities for him to use various medicinal materials in the future.
Although he has the ability to purify, all he needs are ordinary herbs that are not very eye-catching, but as a low-level disciple in the spiritual stage, asking for such a huge amount of medicinal materials can easily arouse the suspicion of interested people.
Now that I have the magic of imitating the appearance of the devil, this problem has been solved. Every time I go to the medicine garden, I change the appearance of a different person.
After leaving the waste elixir room, Lin Xuan quickly came to the medicine garden and used three low-grade marrow-cleansing pills, which were easily replaced by hundreds of kilograms of ginseng. Of course, they were all ordinary medicinal materials of low grade. However, this problem,
Lin Xuan doesn't care, he can purify what others see as rubbish and turn it into useful treasures.
In addition to ginseng, Lin Xuan also exchanged a basket of magenta silk grass. Although there is still a lot of purified green liquid, it will be used to conceal the cultivation level and use the magic of the devil to imitate, so he will get some more.
Back in the room, Lin Xuan closed the door and started purifying without stopping. With the experience of the red silk grass last time, the purification of ginseng went very smoothly this time, with only one or two failures. As expected, ordinary ginseng also
Ginseng essence can be purified.
Unlike the essence of red silk grass, which is a liquid, the so-called ginseng essence is a white powder, which is extremely fragrant and refreshing. Lin Xuan also carefully put it in a bottle.
A hundred pounds of ginseng was used, but the ginseng essence obtained was less than two taels.
But Lin Xuan is already very satisfied. After all, other cultivators need to use thousand-year-old spiritual grass to refine a little bit of ginseng essence, but he can purify it using ordinary ginseng on the market.
Next, Lin Xuan began to retreat again. Following the instructions from the Elite Hall, he took ginseng essence and practiced spiritual control.
As expected, Elder Li did not lie and deceive. Originally, no matter how hard Lin Xuan tried, there was no progress in the practice of spiritual control. But since taking the ginseng essence, he felt that the bottleneck in front of him suddenly disappeared, and slowly
Yes, practice has also had an effect.
Using internal vision to check the Dantian in his body, Lin Xuan found that the situation was different from when he took the Marrow Cleansing Pill. The function of the Marrow Cleansing Pill is to nourish the spiritual power and make it thrive. However, after taking the essence of ginseng, the amount of spiritual power was not the same.
Changes, but the quality has been greatly improved, the color is darker, and it has become more pure.
It turns out that ginseng essence can improve the quality of spiritual power, which means that the foundation becomes more solid. Perhaps it is for this reason that it breaks the bottleneck of practicing spiritual control.
Lin Xuan works hard day after day.
He took the ginseng essence and practiced the spirit control technique according to the instructions. When the ginseng essence was used up, he would use the disguise technique to disguise himself, and then go to the medicine garden to exchange.
…
In the blink of an eye, it has been three months.
Although there were elixirs as a backing, the practice of spiritual control was still more difficult than imagined. It took Lin Xuan a full ninety days to achieve some success.
Next, no matter how much ginseng essence he took, he could no longer make any progress.
Lin Xuan was not in a hurry. With his current attainments in the spirit control technique, he was already very good at manipulating spiritual weapons, and his power was far greater than when he used the object-repelling technique.
It is not easy to reach this point with the magical power of a disciple in the spiritual stage. If you want to go further, you have to wait until you build the foundation.
People can't be greedy. After making some achievements in spiritual control, Lin Xuan's strength has improved a lot. Not only his control over spiritual weapons, but also because he has been taking ginseng essence, his spiritual power has also become more pure.
The improvement of a cultivator's realm is based on the amount of spiritual power. However, when the spiritual power is the same, it is obvious that the purer the spiritual power, the deeper the strength.
By accident, Lin Xuan discovered that ginseng essence had the effect of tempering spiritual power, and would take it together with the Marrow Cleansing Pill when practicing in the future.
Mastering the spirit control technique can not only double the power of spiritual weapons, but even better, you can also control the spiritual weapons to fly in the air. This auxiliary function really makes Lin Xuan excited.
You must know that when he first entered Piaoyun Valley, what he envied most was that those high-level monks could soar through the nine heavens and travel thousands of miles.
Although he later learned light body techniques, wind control techniques, etc., he was unable to truly fly after all. Therefore, even with Lin Xuan's calm personality, after just learning how to control weapons, he could not help but sneak out of the mountain gate quietly and release
Feijian roamed around for a while.
With his current strength, his flying speed is still lacking, far from reaching the legendary state of being able to travel thousands of miles in an instant with just a thought, but it is no longer a problem to cover hundreds of miles in one hour.
However, Lin Xuan was not satisfied. He returned to the Waste Alchemy Room and began to retreat again. His strength was still too weak. Flying with a weapon did not require much mana. If he could control a spiritual weapon to fight, his current cultivation level could not support it.
After a long time, the spiritual power is still weak.
Keep up the good work and continue practicing.
After all, the spiritual stage is only the earliest stage of cultivation, and even the lifespan is no different from that of ordinary secular people. Although it is still too early to talk about foundation building, at least we must cultivate to the stage of Dzogchen as soon as possible.
With such a mood, Lin Xuan stayed in seclusion and practiced bravely.
…
A month has passed.
Two months have passed.
A year has passed.
Two years have passed.
…
Lin Xuan finally ended his longest retreat in history. The ups and downs of this experience cannot be expressed in words. The immortal path is difficult, and it becomes more and more difficult as you go to the next level. It takes longer and longer to break through to a higher level.
Long.
Although Lin Xuan worked hard, he was still a mortal without spiritual roots. However, with the help of countless elixirs, he finally entered the highest level of the spiritual stage - Dzogchen!
