Closing his eyes, his consciousness gradually fell into chaos, and then he suddenly woke up again.
The familiar pain hit, but Su Ming's expression remained unchanged.
Su Ming got over the first pain of skin care with ease.
The second level is the pain of sawing bones.
Su Ming had always failed at this level in the past, but this time it was different. Su Ming's consciousness had broken through to the fourth level of foundation building.
This means that his soul has become stronger.
The strengthening of the soul means that his tolerance to the illusion of the Heart Refining Tower has increased.
If you want to survive in the illusion of the Heart Refining Tower for a long time, the first thing you need to do is rely on your soul. This is a hard condition.
There is absolutely no situation where a monk with a spiritual soul in the Qi training stage can survive to the second level by relying on his Taoist heart and will.
If this happens, it can only mean that the soul of the Qi-training monk is comparable to that of the Foundation-building monk.
Although Su Ming relied on the "Shenting Rizhao Sutra" to raise his spiritual consciousness to the fourth level of foundation building at the ninth level of Qi training.
But at this point, he also felt that he had reached the limit of his current cultivation level.
It is becoming more and more difficult to continue to increase the intensity of spiritual consciousness.
Even though he has been in the Heart Refining Tower almost every day in the past six months, his progress has not been as fast as before.
Su Ming knew that he had to build a foundation.
The pain Su Ming felt at the second level seemed less intense than before with the fourth level of foundation building.
Gradually, Su Ming adapted to the pain of the second level.
Finally, he felt the familiar pain continue to penetrate deep into his organs.
This time, Su Ming felt that all the organs in his body were rotting, and more severe pain hit him like a tide.
"Pain! Pain! Severe pain!!!"
now.
Apart from the pain, Su Ming had no consciousness left in his mind.
I don't know how long it took before he slowly woke up on the futon in the secret room.
"Am I kicked out of the illusion?"
Su Ming's mind went blank.
Half a moment.
He finally confirmed that he was kicked out of the illusion.
This is also the power of Yaoyuan Taoist Temple's Heart Refining Tower. Once it detects that a disciple cannot hold on, he will be kicked out of the illusion as soon as possible, so as not to really damage the soul of the Taoist Institute disciples.
If this illusion was not used to train one's Taoist mind, but to kill the enemy, one would not let the opponent go so easily.
Su Ming felt that he would never stop until the enemy's soul completely collapsed.
"I don't know how long I lasted in the third level."
Shaking his head, Su Ming stood up from the futon, opened the door to the secret room, and walked out.
As the door to the secret room opens.
Su Ming found a person standing outside, and this person was his mentor-Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen looked at Su Ming with a complicated expression.
After a long while, he finally said: "Su Ming, come with me."
After saying that, Qin Zhen turned around and left.
Su Ming followed him silently.
After leaving the Heart Refining Tower, Qin Zhen looked at Su Ming and said bluntly: "Your spiritual consciousness should be comparable to that of a fourth-level Foundation Establishment monk, right?"
"this?"
Su Ming was stunned, "How did Qin Jiaoxi know?"
"Of course someone told me,"
Qin Zhen shook his head, then looked at him with complex eyes and said, "Su Ming, the hospital is about to see you."
"Housemaster?"
Su Ming was surprised and said, "Yu Yuanzheng?"
"Besides Yu Yuanzheng, does our Taoist academy have a second abbot?"
Qin Zhen looked at Su Ming with envy, even though he was an outer disciple of the Xianxia Sect and a teacher at the Taoist Academy.
But since he entered the Taoist Academy, he has not even seen the face of the legendary Yu Yuan Zheng. However, Su Ming had the opportunity to be summoned by Yu Yuan Zheng alone.
Su Ming had a glimpse of Yu Yuanzheng at the port of Tianshu Island.
However, that day when he was high in the sky, Su Ming stood on the deck of the spirit boat and could only vaguely see the figure of the other party. The specific appearance was not very clear.
But this time, it was the other party who wanted to summon him in person.
Even Su Ming felt a little uneasy at this moment.
Su Ming took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "Qin Jiaoxi, do you know where the Yuyuan Zhengxian Mansion is?"
"Yuyuan Zhengxian Mansion"
Qin Zhen was slightly startled, he didn't know.
Just when he was feeling worried, a gentle voice sounded in their minds: "Qin Zhen, please step back first. Su Ming, come here."
Say it.
Su Ming felt that the scene in front of him was blurry.
The next moment, he suddenly appeared in a small courtyard full of energy.
In the courtyard, a young monk in white clothes holds a jade pot in his right hand and is watering the spiritual plants.
This man's movements were natural and casual, and he looked no different from an ordinary young man.
Su Ming couldn't find any aura on him, let alone his level of cultivation.
"sit down."
The young monk put down the jade pot in his hand and turned around.
With just one glance, Su Ming seemed to see the endless starry sky, and suddenly felt dizzy.
At this time, the young monk spoke and nodded: "It is indeed a soul at the middle stage of foundation building."
Su Ming stood respectfully in front of Yu Yuan, not daring to cross the line at all.
Seeing that Su Ming had no intention of sitting down, Yu Yuan was sitting on the stone bench. He looked at Su Ming who was bowing and said, "Do you know? You are the strongest disciple of my soul since the establishment of Yaoyuan Taoist Academy.
The previous disciple's soul was naturally powerful, but at the ninth level of Qi training, it was only comparable to the peak monks in the early stages of foundation building.
But you have broken through the limits of the early stage of foundation building, which surprised me very much."
"Yu Yuanzheng, me"
"I know you must have a mysterious method to practice,"
Yu Yuan was waving his hands, "But this is not critical. Being able to have a soul in the Qi training stage that is comparable to the foundation building stage is not something that can be achieved by simply practicing the God training method.
It means that you have extraordinary talent in terms of soul."
Hearing this, Su Ming immediately put his heart back in his stomach.
He thought the other party wanted to read his "Shenting Rizhao Sutra".
With Yu Yuanzheng's cultivation and status, if Su Ming really made this request, he would not be able to refuse it no matter what.
Fortunately, the other party had no intention of spying on his skills.
Perhaps, Yu Yuanzheng doesn't like him at all.
As a Yuanying Stage monk, he is already the pinnacle monk in this world, second only to the God Transformation monk.
There are very few treasures in this world that can penetrate the eyes of such a monk.
This does not include the incomplete Shenting Rizhao Sutra.
Perhaps Yu Yuanzheng would still be interested in taking a look at the complete version of "Shenting Rizhao Sutra".
Of course, it's just a glance.
As a monk at the Nascent Soul stage, he has already had his own main training method and his own way.
Even if another better top-notch technique was placed in front of him, he would not practice it.
Because it means he has to change the path he's on.
For a Nascent Soul cultivator, this is very fatal.
Maybe in the wasted time of changing the exercises, life span will be exhausted and he will pass away.
This is not alarmist, this has happened before in the world of immortality cultivation.
Therefore, monks usually change their exercises during the foundation building period.
At the Golden Elixir stage, very few monks will change their main practice.
And when he reaches the Nascent Soul stage, even if the immortal magic from the upper world is placed in front of him, he may not change it.
Seeing Su Ming's reserved look, Yu Yuan smiled and said, "Su Ming, why haven't you built the foundation yet? With your current consciousness and cultivation level, you have already reached the point where you are ready to hang yourself. Building the foundation can only be done in a single thought.
"
"this"
Su Ming said truthfully, "Qi Yu Yuanzheng, this disciple is reluctant to part with the Foundation Building Pill of the Xianxia Sect."
"Hahaha."
Hearing this, Yu Yuanzheng suddenly laughed.
He pointed at Su Ming, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you are an honest person."
Immediately, Yu Yuanzheng said again: "After you build the foundation in the Taoist Academy, your Foundation Building Pills will be converted into sect contributions and given to you.
Moreover, all Taoist disciples in Lanzhou will be divided into levels after entering the Xianxia Sect."
"Division level?"
Su Ming said in astonishment.
He had never heard of this matter, not even Qin Zhen mentioned it to him.
"Yes, all outer disciples who enter the Xianxia Sect will be divided into four levels: A, B, C and D."
Hearing this, an idea flashed in Su Ming's mind, and he raised his hands and said, "Yu Yuanzheng, is this disciple's level related to the sect's contribution?"
"You are very smart,"
Yu Yuan nodded, "Yes, the hierarchy of outer disciples means that the sect divides the potential of these disciples. We, the Xianxia Sect, will naturally not hesitate to cultivate disciples with excellent potential.
But if you contribute directly to the sect, you are worried about the criticism from ordinary disciples.
Therefore, there is a division of disciple levels. After you enter the Xianxia Sect in the future, you must not mention this matter in front of ordinary disciples."
"Disciple understands."
Seeing how calm Su Ming was, Yuyuan Zheng became more and more satisfied with him and continued: "The biggest difference in the level of disciples is the difference in contribution from the sect.
If the most ordinary C-level disciple gets a little contribution from the sect, it is just a little.
However, the highest-ranking A-level disciple gets one point of sect contribution, but it is worth ten points."
Hearing this, Su Ming couldn't help but feel enlightened.
No wonder the talented disciples who enter the Xianxia Sect from the Taoist Academy are often able to quickly accumulate enough sect contributions to enter the inner sect.
The original reason is here.
"Su Ming, you must remember that you are a disciple trained by our Taoist academy and an absolute direct descendant of our Xianxia sect.
From now on, as long as you live up to the Xianxia Sect, our Xianxia Sect will also live up to you."
Hear this promise.
Su Ming immediately raised his hands towards Yu Yuanzheng and said, "Disciple Su Ming, I will keep this in mind."
Yu Yuan was looking at Su Ming, nodded and said, "Go ahead."
After saying that, he waved his hand and Su Ming disappeared in the courtyard instantly.
Su Ming felt the scene in front of him blur, and then he was moved out of the courtyard by a force.
When he regained his sight again, he had returned to the courtyard of his dormitory.
At this time, a word came to Su Ming's ear.
"Build the foundation as soon as possible. From today on, you will be the first-class disciple of my Xianxia Sect."
Su Ming felt his hands were cold.
He raised his hand and found that he was holding a jade-colored token in his hand. There was a cloud of mist on the back of the jade token, and two large characters were written in spiritual script on the front.
Astonishingly, it is the word "Xianxia" that symbolizes the identity of a disciple of the Xianxia Sect.
"I actually became a disciple of the Xianxia Sect?"
There is no assessment, no special moves, just become a disciple of Xianxia Sect?
Su Ming felt an unreal feeling.
But with Yu Yuanzheng's status, there is no problem at all in deciding on a first-class disciple.
In fact, even Elder Jindan, who is responsible for the sect's assessment, often looks at Yu Yuanzheng's face when recruiting Xianxia sect disciples in Yaoyuan Taoist Academy.
It can be said that he is the principal of the largest Taoist temple in Yaoyuanshui Realm.
Even in the entire Xianxia Sect, Yu Yuanzheng is a top-notch strong man who can speak his mind.
Otherwise, the head of the Lingbao Mountain Hall would not have come to Yuyuan Zheng as his first stop to ask for help.
In the courtyard of No. 18 B.
Su Ming sat upright.
He wants to build a foundation!
And the foundation was built without the foundation building pill.
But Su Ming was extremely confident in this. In fact, when his consciousness reached the third level of foundation building, Su Ming felt that he could build the foundation at any time.
Previously he thought it was just his illusion.
However, over the past six months, his true energy had been inexhaustible and incomparable, and his spiritual consciousness had further reached the level of the fourth level of foundation building. Su Ming felt that he was somewhat unable to suppress his cultivation.
After meeting Yu Yuanzheng today, he could tell Su Ming's state at a glance.
He also bluntly said that in Su Ming's current state, he didn't need the foundation-building pill at all and could build the foundation with just one thought.
Feeling the rich aura of the inner courtyard of the second-level spirit gathering array.
Su Ming took a deep breath, slowly operated the "Thick Earth Technique", and began to build the foundation according to the foundation building methods recorded in the "Thick Earth Technique".
Just when Su Ming was operating the technique according to the foundation-building method of "Thick Earth Kung Fu".
The zhenqi in his dantian that had been unable to be suppressed boiled instantly.
What followed was a large amount of spiritual energy from the outside world swarming towards Su Ming.
Fortunately, there was spiritual energy in the courtyard that was so rich that it was almost atomized by the second-level spirit gathering formation. Attracted by the cyclone in Su Ming's dantian, this spiritual energy flew towards his dantian like crazy.
On weekdays, spiritual energy is screened and refined based on the monk's spiritual root attributes, and then it becomes true energy and is stored in the Dantian.
But now, a large amount of spiritual energy is gathering towards Su Ming's dantian.
If it were an ordinary monk, he could only use the Foundation Establishment Pill to suppress the violent true energy that suddenly transformed from miscellaneous spiritual energy.
But Su Ming, who possesses the fourth level of foundation-building consciousness, is different.
Although the spiritual energy that rushed toward his Dantian was very mixed, he was able to easily expel the non-earth spiritual energy from his Dantian with the help of his divine consciousness.
Only the earth attribute spiritual energy is left and is refined into true energy by the true energy cyclone.
The true cyclone rotated faster and faster, and gradually, the first drop of liquid true essence was born in the center of the cyclone.
The birth of the first drop of true essence seemed to blow a trumpet, and a large amount of true essence began to appear in Su Ming's dantian.
One drop, two drops, three drops.
By the end, the true energy had almost filled his Dantian.
However, Su Ming's expected true energy rampage did not appear at all. Under the suppression of his powerful spiritual consciousness, these true energy became as docile as a sheep.
There is no need to use the Foundation Establishment Pill to suppress the violent True Qi after breaking through the Foundation Establishment.
There are two reasons why this is so.
First, Su Ming used his spiritual consciousness to expel the mixed spiritual energy that entered his Dantian.
Second, the earth-attributed true essence refined from a single earth-attributed spiritual energy is inherently very docile.
Coupled with the control of Su Ming's powerful spiritual consciousness, it is simply more stable than the Dantian of ordinary foundation-building monks, and there is no danger of the true energy going violent.
Seeing this scene, Su Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The next morning.
"Building a foundation doesn't seem to be difficult."
This was Su Ming's first thought after opening his eyes.
