"Shi Ming, don't tell Lan'er about Zhuge Xuan's death, so as not to affect her breakthrough to the foundation building stage. When I get back, I'll let her retreat to the foundation building stage!" On the way back, Elder Yin hesitated for a moment before speaking out.
"I know, Uncle Yin!" Li Shiming nodded in agreement.
There were not many people close to Yin Shilan in the sect, and Zhuge Xuan was definitely one of them.
Zhuge Xuan gave Yin Shilan a lot of guidance on formations, and indeed she learned of Zhuge Xuan's bad news when she was in the foundation building stage, which was definitely not a good thing for Yin Shilan.
"Good boy!" A fatherly smile flashed across Elder Yin's eyes, and then he said seriously: "Your body refining has improved too much, which will have some impact on your attack on foundation building. You'd better stop using formations and other methods.
Study in this field, do more sect tasks, redeem more foundation-building pills, and be prepared before foundation-building!"
Li Shiming was startled. He had always thought that body training could break through the chance of foundation building. He did not expect that there would be problems if body training was too strong.
"Too much is not enough. You have cultivated your physique to a level beyond Qi refining. You are currently at the seventh level of Qi refining. When you reach the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, your physique will continue to increase. Your physique is too powerful to create a breakthrough for you.
Create a stronger bottleneck... Of course, after you break through in this situation, your strength will be much stronger than that of a normal monk!" Elder Yin thought for a while, and then gave instructions.
He did this for his daughter, and because Li Shiming was still obedient, he gave advice.
As for why the Golden Core Sword Cultivator let Li Shiming go, he didn't think much about it at all.
Because as far as he is concerned, even if he encounters a monk from a hostile force, the most he can do is kill the foundation-building monk, which is already an extremely angry act.
As for the Qi Refining Stage Masters, they are like ants to the Golden Pill cultivators, and they disdain to take action.
Li Shiming fell into the sea and escaped with his life. Elder Yin completely accepted this explanation without any doubt.
After returning to the vicinity of the sect, Li Shiming returned to his cave. Elder Yin would handle the attack and there was no need for him to do anything.
Entering the familiar underground space, he thought of Elder Yin's words, and even more so, what Yun Xingyi said.
Yun Xingyi said to him that with his qualifications and talents, he would reach the limit in the foundation building period at most. He didn't pay attention to this statement at the time, but now that he thought about it, Yun Xingyi probably couldn't be lying.
He worked hard to close the gap with the top talents, and even came up with a way to use clones to help him practice.
But at best, this method can only allow him to reach the peak of the Qi Refining Stage faster, but this will not be the case in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The foundation-building period is extremely important, and it is the period in which the most solid foundation is laid.
After reaching the foundation building stage, it is impossible for him to practice the same major technique as his clone, because the clone's talent is too high, and he will most likely drag the clone down and make the clone become ordinary.
The clone is equivalent to another him. If the clone can cultivate to a higher level faster, then the training resources provided to the main body alone can make up part of the talent gap.
"Didn't you say that my talent is poor and I can't be promoted to the golden elixir? Then I will let the clone become the golden elixir first and find a lot of resources for me. I don't believe it. With a lot of resources, can't I pile up a golden elixir? The clone
If the golden elixir is not enough, then Yuanying!" Li Shiming said to himself with firm eyes, clenched fists.
He thought of the 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique' and the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique', these two techniques were better than the sect's techniques.
He didn't quite understand why Yun Xingyi would bring three complete versions of the exercises, which was extremely rare among monks.
This is actually related to Yun Xingyi's mission. This time he needs to cross the dangerous sea and explore a safe route.
Before the mission, he had prepared for the worst. If his life was in danger, he would need to be prepared to take his body.
These three exercises are the arrangements for seizing the body. Memory confusion may occur during the seizing of the body, so it is extremely necessary to prepare the corresponding exercises.
The preparations he made naturally benefited Li Shiming in the end.
Li Shiming is currently considering his future plans. He has considered this matter many times before, but due to the inability to obtain the exercises, even with the help of IBMz15 for analysis, he was unable to draw useful conclusions.
It's different now. The two top techniques that can be practiced at the Nascent Soul stage are enough for him to make a choice.
What he needs to choose is whether to become a sword cultivator or a Dharma cultivator. The 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique' is a pure sword cultivation method, while the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique' is a Dharma cultivation method.
Probably Yun Xingyi also prepared another training path to prevent Suo She's body from becoming unable to practice swordsmanship.
Sometimes taking possession of a body is not an option, and it is too difficult for an extremely ordinary monk to practice sword cultivation.
Li Shiming also knows that compared to sword cultivation, the path of legal cultivation is much easier.
This can be judged from the number of sword cultivators and magic cultivators. Within the sect, only monks with extremely talented talents will choose sword cultivation, while ordinary monks are almost exclusively magic cultivators.
Of course, it does not mean that the combat power of Fa Xiu is inferior. Yun Xingyi, the golden elixir sword cultivator, is interested in Fa Xiu's skills. He also adheres to the characteristics of sword cultivator, which is the ultimate attack power, so he brings
It's the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique'.
Lei Xiu is the one with the strongest attack power among the Dharma cultivators. If Lei Xiu has a supernatural spiritual root like Thunder Spirit Root, he is of course the best choice.
If there is no thunder spirit root, then the golden spirit root is the second choice.
Yun Xingyi's words made Li Shiming realize his qualifications.
When Li Shiming first entered the sect, he took advantage of the free opportunity and chose the most expensive technique, 'Sword Control Technique', considering the cost-effectiveness.
Although the 'Sword Control Technique' makes him extremely powerful in combat, this does not mean that sword cultivation is suitable for him.
If his talent and qualifications are not enough, if he takes sword cultivation as his training goal, he is worried that his talent will not be able to support his ambition.
Of course, practicing the 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique' in a clone is actually equivalent to practicing it on his own to a certain extent.
He can use the magical weapon of the clone. The cultivation of the clone is actually a practice that he uses part of his consciousness to practice. It is one at the soul level.
Maybe the main body cannot exert the power of the clone's use of the 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique', but this effect can definitely be made up for by the power of Lei Xiu.
In addition, Li Shiming had an inexplicable feeling about the Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique, as if he was born with this technique.
Therefore, he made a decision in his mind. After the foundation building period, his main body will practice the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique', while his clone will practice the 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique'.
It is hard to imagine that a monk with no background could figure out a training direction for himself after foundation building when he first entered the late stage of Qi refining. This is a privilege that only second-generation cultivators or monks with amazing talents have.
"I'm about to enter the foundation building stage and need to retreat for three to six months!" Yin Shilan sent the message, and by the time Li Shiming replied to the message, she had already entered the retreat room.
Li Shiming wished her success in his heart and hoped that she would not be too sad because of Uncle Zhuge's death after she successfully came out of seclusion.
The clone rested in the ghost realm of the 'Netherworld Ghost Realm' for half a day in the corpse-refining state, and the injuries on his body recovered.
The clone transformed into a human form again, and the injuries on his body were completely gone.
"Thank you for your hard work, fellow Taoist!" Li Shiming bowed to the clone and said.
"It's not hard, it's just a blow from the little golden elixir!" the clone waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone.
After finishing speaking, the main body and the clone laughed in unison.
Li Shiming was relieved that the clone was fine. If the clone's injury lasted for a long time, it would affect his training plan.
He also checked the condition of his right thumb. I wonder if his level is too low, or the level of the sword bone has reached a high level. Anyway, no matter how he checked, using his spiritual mind, and using IBMz15, he could not find anything special about his right thumb.
.
If there was any difference, it was that the hardness of his right thumb was extremely high, but since he could not check the hardness of his right thumb, he could only make this judgment.
He has no intention of cutting off his right thumb with a magic weapon. As long as there is no impact on his right thumb, he will treat it as if nothing happened to his right thumb.
"Fellow Taoist, I leave this sword to you!" Li Shiming handed Yun Xingyi's natal Flying Sword Guiyi Sword to the clone.
In addition to helping the main body practice the "Five Elements Receiving Qi Jue", the clone can no longer carry out daily practice, and will enter the promotion state accidentally.
So he handed the Gui Yijian to his clone, and the clone usually carried the Gui Yijian with him.
Anyway, the clone will not appear in front of other monks, so there is no need to worry about Gui Yijian being exposed.
Li Shiming decided that if he wanted to become a Dharma cultivator in the future, then he would naturally give the clone to the golden elixir sword cultivator's natal magic weapon such as Gui Yijian.
Since the clone has the same soul mark as Li Shiming, and the clone also has the aura of the original body, Gui Yijian accepted the clone just like the original body.
Of course, this kind of acceptance only has the right to use it, and there is still a long way to go to become the master of Gui Yi Sword.
The stupid way Li Shiming thought of was to let the clone and Gui Yijian stay together for a long time.
Especially after the avatar is promoted to Foundation Establishment and begins to practice the 'Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique', you can use the method of sword cultivation to cultivate the sword. Only then can the relationship be truly deepened.
The owner of Gui Yi Sword has passed away. Although it is difficult for the clone to transform from use rights to ownership, he has plenty of time.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, Gui Yijian will recognize us as his master!" the clone said, putting Gui Yijian around his waist.
Li Shiming is getting used to this kind of multitasking conversation, finding a little vitality for his lonely practice.
In the days that followed, he followed Elder Yin's guidance and began to accept a large number of formation tasks.
He did not go to Lingji Pavilion again. Since Zhuge Xuan's death, the senior formation mage stationed there was replaced by a female foundation-building monk named Song.
The fall of Zhuge Xuan and Yin Shilan's retreat increased the sect's formation tasks a lot.
Li Shiming takes on one or two sect formation tasks almost every day, which to some extent reduces the impact of losing a senior formation master on the sect.
His spiritual energy vortex was also improving at a speed visible to the naked eye. His cultivation speed was faster than that of Tianlinggen, allowing him to advance to the late seventh level of Qi refining in just one month.
In the next three months, he broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refining.
"Uncle Yin!" Li Shiming received the news from Elder Yin and came to Zhongfeng's retreat room. He saw that Elder Yin was also here.
Judging by the breath in the retreat room, Yin Shilan left the retreat today.
"Shiming, you are at the eighth level of Qi refining. It seems that you are practicing very hard!" Elder Yin was slightly surprised when he sensed Li Shiming's level, and gave him a rare compliment.
He didn't want to ask Li Shiming to come over, but this was what his daughter had told her before going into seclusion.
Recently, he also inquired about Li Shiming's news and learned that Li Shiming had completed a large number of formation tasks.
This was because he listened to his instructions, which improved his impression of Li Shiming.
"Did Lan'er succeed in breaking through?" Li Shiming looked at the door of the retreat room and blurted out a question.
His care leads to chaos. With Yin Shilan's talent and Elder Yin's preparations, it is not too difficult to break through the small foundation building period.
"I don't know!" Elder Yin looked unhappy and said coldly.
When did this kid start calling his daughter by her nickname, and he can also call her Lan'er? This is the exclusive right of the couple to call their daughter.
Li Shiming was startled. He looked at Elder Yin's suddenly changed face and thought that Yin Shilan was in trouble with her breakthrough. His worries intensified.
He stared at the door of the retreat room, thinking in his mind how sad Yin Shilan would appear, whether she would be injured, whether she would shed tears?
Neither Elder Yin nor Li Shiming said anything. Elder Yin was angry, while Li Shiming was worried.
After an unknown amount of time, the dull atmosphere changed as the door of the retreat room opened.
"Lan'er!" The voices of Li Shiming and Elder Yin appeared at the same time.
When Yin Shilan walked out of the door of the retreat room, she saw Li Shiming with worried eyes and her father who was proud of her.
"Shi Ming!" Yin Shilan felt the love pouring into her heart, and she responded softly.
Li Shiming felt the aura on Yin Shilan's body, which was the unique pressure of monks in the foundation-building stage.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Elder Yin inexplicably. He didn't understand what Elder Yin meant before. Could it be that he meant to scare him?
"Daddy!" Yin Shilan didn't know the weirdness between the two men, and looked at Elder Yin and shouted.
"After you get out of seclusion, consolidate your realm. I'll tell your mother the good news first!" Elder Yin was dissatisfied that his daughter called him after Li Shiming, but this dissatisfaction would not happen to his daughter. He wrote this dissatisfaction to Li Shiming.
on the head.
He didn't want to stay here at all. Being around Li Shiming made him feel very uncomfortable.
After saying these words, his figure flew up and quickly disappeared.
"Shi Ming, let me tell you some good news. What is this?" Yin Shilan watched her father leave with some confusion. She thought of something important and took out a porcelain bottle with a hint of pride.
Li Shiming recognized it at a glance as the bottle of Foundation Establishment Pill, which was the unified standard of the sect.
"You broke through without using the Foundation Establishment Pill?" Li Shiming felt that he had underestimated Yin Shilan's talent.
"After one more month of retreat, I saved this Foundation Establishment Pill. You need the Foundation Establishment Pill more than I do!" Yin Shilan put the porcelain bottle in Li Shiming's hand, with a happy smile on her face.
