Chapter 25: Difficulty in building foundation

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and he couldn't hide his depressed look in his eyes. When he was about to form a pill, his spiritual control was slightly different, which led to the failure of refining the entire furnace of elixirs.

Close your eyes and rest for a while. After your mind stabilizes again, Xiao Chen quickly packed up the residue in the medicine and started to refine it for the second time.

This time, Xiao Chen was careful and did not make any mistakes from beginning to end. Half an hour later, a strong fragrance of medicine came from the alchemy furnace.

Xiao Chen showed a hint of joy on his face. He turned on the alchemy furnace and more than a dozen foundation-building pills were lying in it.

Picking up one from it, checked it carefully, and it was exactly the same as the one in my hand. Xiao Chen nodded with satisfaction and put the rest into the jade bottle and put it in the jade bottle.

After gaining experience, Xiao Chen's speed of refining the foundation-building pill was greatly improved. When night fell, he would refine all thirty pieces of materials. During this period, except for one accident, all twenty-eight pieces of materials successfully obtained 400 foundation-building pills.

Looking at the foundation-building pill full of four bottles, Xiao Chen's face was full of pride. I believe that even those core disciples of the sects would have never seen so many foundation-building pills at once in their lifetime.

Looking at the four hundred foundation-building pills, Xiao Chen hesitated for a moment and put three of them into the storage bag.

"Three hundred pieces are enough for me to build foundations. It is better to try to purify the remaining ones. If you can get a medium-grade or high-grade foundation-building pill, the effect will definitely be better when you practice it."

Five hours later, looking at the nineteen foundation-building pills placed in front of him that had increased a lot of glossy medicine, Xiao Chen's face also showed a bit of pain. At the beginning, although he reached the tenth level of Qi Refining Stage and his spiritual sense was greatly enhanced, the difficulty of purifying the foundation-building pills was still somewhat beyond his imagination. After failing more than ten consecutive times, he began to succeed slowly. However, after one hundred tests, he only obtained nineteen medium-grade foundation-building pills, with a success rate of barely 20%. After sighing, Xiao Chen carefully guarded the nineteen medium-grade foundation-building pills, swallowed a few pills, closed his eyes and meditated.

First, he refined the foundation-building pill and then purified it. Xiao Chen's spiritual consciousness and spiritual power had been consumed. Even if a large amount of pills were swallowed, it would be three hours later when he fully recovered.

He took out a foundation-building pill and Xiao Chen swallowed it. In an instant, the cool and gentle spiritual power in his body rioted, and he ran wildly along the meridians over and over again. As the medicine power was continuously absorbed, the volume of spiritual power also increased rapidly and became more pure. Xiao Chen kept his guard on the spiritual platform, without any intervention in the changes in the spiritual power in his body, allowing it to turn wildly and revolve.

After half an hour, the almost boiling spiritual power in his body gradually subsided. Xiao Chen opened his eyes and showed a bit of self-deprecating look on his face. After reaching the eighth level of Qi Refining Stage, he could most of the foundation building can be built. However, after taking the tenth level of Qi Refining Stage, he was unable to build the foundation after taking the foundation building pill. It can be seen how poor his talent is.

Fortunately, Xiao Chen was prepared for this, so he quickly calmed down after he laughed at himself. After careful examination, although the foundation building failed, the spiritual power in his body increased a little. It seemed that this was the effect of the foundation building pill. Xiao Chen calmed down a little and took out another one with his back hand and swallowed it.

With the first experience, the medicinal power was refining a few points faster this time. Xiao Chen opened his eyes, swallowed a foundation-building pill expressionlessly, and then refined the medicinal power.

The third time he swallowed the foundation-building pill, as the medicine was absorbed, the boiling spiritual power seemed to have changed. Xiao Chen was slightly happy. Did he succeed? When the medicine power was absorbed, Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes and carefully experienced the changes in spiritual power.

The physical and spiritual power has increased again at this moment, and it has become more pure than before, and its spiritual consciousness has also increased a little. Xiao Chen opened his eyes and couldn't help but smile a little bitterly. Although he made another breakthrough, he had absolutely no success in building a foundation. So what realm is now? The eleventh level of Qi Refining Stage? It seems that he has never heard of this realm at all.

Xiao Chen showed a little thoughtful look on his face. Although he did not successfully build the foundation with the foundation, his cultivation was constantly increasing. If he continued like this and reached the limit, he would naturally advance to the next level of cultivation. Xiao Chen packed up his mind and put a foundation-building pill in his mouth again. At the same time, he thought viciously in his heart: "I have many elixirs. If one is not good, ten is not good, one is hundred. If ten is not good, you will not be able to build the foundation!"

After two months of continuous recession, Xiao Chen did not go out. He swallowed the pill, meditated, and refined the medicinal power, repeating it day after day.

After swallowing until the 25th, Xiao Chen felt like a breakthrough for the second time, but he still had no foundation building. He will temporarily define his current realm as the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage.

Swallowed to the sixty-fourth, the third breakthrough, the foundation building failed, the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining Stage. The 157th level of the fourth breakthrough, the foundation building failed, the 14th level of the Qi Refining Stage. The fifth breakthrough, the foundation building failed, the 15th level of the Qi Refining Stage.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, his eyes full of unwillingness. After refining this medium-grade foundation-building pill, he only made the spiritual power in his body slightly purer, and the number did not increase at all.

"Oh, it seems that this is the limit that can be reached in the Qi Refining Period, but why can't I build a foundation?" This is his tenth attempt. After continuously refining nine low-grade foundation-building pills without any spiritual power changes, Xiao Chen really gave up and swallowed a medium-grade foundation-building pill, but the effect is still extremely limited.

After thinking hard for a while, Xiao Chen's face showed a little bitterness. At the fifteenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, he still couldn't break through at this point. Could it be that he had obtained this amazing alchemy technique, but his cultivation level was about to stop at the Qi Refining Stage?

Xiao Chen was very unwilling to accept it and used the Qi-retention technique attached to "Huanyuan Nervous" to stabilize his cultivation level at about the seventh level of the Qi Refining Stage, and then swallowed a transformed pill and left the valley.

The deformation pill is a kind of side-door elixir. It costs a lot of materials and can change the user's appearance. It lasts for three hours and can only take one again every one hour. However, it is not without defects. It is more than one level higher than the user, so that you can see through the appearance changes. However, Xiao Chen's Qi Refining Stage is at the fifteenth level, and his spiritual power and spiritual consciousness are not weaker than ordinary foundation-building cultivators, so he is naturally not afraid of being seen through.

The only real person in the head who has this strength also went to seclusion with the guardian of the Dharma when Yao Daozi hit the Jindan realm, so Xiao Chen was naturally extremely relieved.
