Gu Changze has advanced to the ninth level of Qi training for several years, and has also tempered his spiritual power once. Although his foundation is not comparable to Gu Changhuan's, it is still solid.
Now that we have the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is still very possible to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage.
In order to increase the possibility of him advancing to foundation building, he chose to retreat in the Gu family's dedicated foundation building cave.
Gu Shining personally protected him.
This was the first clan member to prepare to build the foundation after he took over the position of clan leader. Naturally, he hoped that Gu Changze could successfully build the foundation.
And Gu Changze was just as he expected. It only took him six days to successfully build the foundation.
After Gu Changze successfully established the foundation, the number of monks in the Gu family's foundation building period reached fifteen!
Fortunately, the Gu family has expanded a lot of property in recent years, otherwise, they might not be able to come up with the salary of many foundation-building monks.
After Gu Changze succeeded in building the foundation, he naturally wanted to tell Gu Changhuan the good news immediately.
However, when he came to the courtyard where Gu Changhuan lived, he found that Gu Changhuan was also in retreat.
Although he wanted to tell Gu Changhuan the good news quickly, he couldn't do anything to disturb others' cultivation, so he left a communication talisman to tell Gu Changhuan the news that he had successfully established the foundation, and expressed his gratitude.
.
Afterwards, Gu Changze returned to his residence and after a good sleep, he began to practice in seclusion.
The advanced foundation building stage is just the beginning. If you become complacent because of this, you may not be able to go further on the road to immortality.
At the same time, on Bifeng Mountain.
Gu Changqing held the jade slip in his hand that recorded the "Immortal Killing Sword Manual" and frowned slightly.
After modifying the "Immortal-Slaying Sword Manual", his cultivation level advanced to the third level of foundation building. It only took five years from the time he succeeded in building the foundation to the present. In five years, he went from the first level of foundation building to the third level of foundation building.
, this kind of cultivation progress is second only to Gu Changhuan in the Gu family.
Firstly, it was because Gu Changqing practiced hard enough, except for necessary things, he spent most of his free time on cultivation;
Secondly, it was because he had enough spiritual objects to assist him in his cultivation, and correspondingly, he had already used up half of the bottle of hundred-year-old spirit milk that he had found in the spirit stone mine;
Finally, it was because his modified exercises were quite consistent with him.
Gu Changqing's own qualifications are mediocre, with only three spiritual roots.
As we all know, the worse the spiritual root, the more bottlenecks you encounter, and after Gu Changqing advanced to the third level of foundation building, he encountered a small bottleneck.
After advancing to the third level of foundation building, he found that no matter how hard he practiced, his true energy could not be increased at all.
After thinking about it for a while, and combining it with the experience of his predecessors, he realized that he had encountered a bottleneck.
There is no specific rule for the emergence of bottlenecks. The only thing that can be determined is that it is related to personal qualifications;
There are generally two ways to break through bottlenecks:
One is to rely on external objects to forcibly break through the bottleneck. This external object is usually an elixir such as an obstacle-breaking elixir. However, the Gu family does not have a recipe for an obstacle-breaking elixir, so naturally it cannot refine such an elixir;
The second method is to go out and look for opportunities. The most common one is to find an opponent, and then find an opportunity to break through the bottleneck between life and death. This is also one of Gu Changqing's purposes for entering the Qianlong Mountains;
When he fought against the golden-haired iron-backed bear before, his bottleneck had been loosened. With a little practice, he could break through the bottleneck and continue to practice. After returning to Bifeng Mountain, it only took him ten days to break through.
This little bottleneck.
However, the problem arose again at this time.
He couldn't understand the meaning of the exercises.
It was clear that he could understand the words one by one, but when he read them coherently, it was like a heavenly book that made him confused.
To practice the exercises, you must be able to master them and understand them before you can practice them. If you forcefully practice with only a little knowledge, you will be in big trouble.
He is not a casual cultivator. There are so many elders in the family, many of whom are higher than him in cultivation. He can just ask the elders for advice, so there is no need to think hard on his own.
So Gu Changqing put away the jade slips and left his residence.
Not long after, he arrived outside Gu Wanchang's cave.
Ever since Gu Wanchang stepped down as the clan leader, his life has become much more leisurely, and he has had a lot of time to practice.
At this time, the formation of Gu Wanchang's cave was wide open. It was obvious that the owner of this place was retreating and did not want to be disturbed.
Gu Changqing was slightly disappointed. Just when he was about to leave here to visit Gu Wanhua, the formation in the cave suddenly lit up and a voice came out.
"It's Mr. Changqing! Why did you come to see me?"
It was Gu Wanchang's voice.
Gu Changqing quickly turned around and saluted:
"Elder, Changqing encountered some difficulties in cultivation, so he came to ask for advice.
It’s not a deliberate intrusion.”
Gu Wanchang laughed twice and said:
"In that case, come in!"
As soon as Gu Wanchang finished speaking, the formation suddenly changed, revealing a passage wide for one person, and Gu Changqing quickly walked in.
After Gu Changqing entered the cave, he saluted Gu Wanchang who was sitting on the futon.
"I met the elder."
Gu Wanchang has been the clan leader for many years and has accumulated great authority. Even though he has resigned now, people in the clan are still respectful and respectful when they see him and do not dare to go beyond him in the slightest.
"No need to be polite. If you have any doubts, you might as well sit down and talk about it."
Gu Wanchang said with a smile. He raised his hand and a futon flew out and landed on the ground.
Gu Changqing folded his hands and sat on the futon, expressing his confusion about the exercises.
After hearing this, Gu Wanchang stroked his beard and said:
“Although penance is necessary for immortality, it won’t work if a cultivator just practices penance blindly;
There are some exercises that require infinite adaption to the state of mind of the person who created them in order to be able to master them. This is what we call joining the world;
Your Kung Fu master has also briefly read a few words. It requires a lot of practical experience to practice it smoothly;
You have quite a lot of experience fighting monsters over the years, but you don’t have many opportunities to fight against monks of the same level of cultivation. My suggestion is that you might as well travel and find some monks with similar strength and level of cultivation to challenge you.
, take a look at the world outside the Jiuqi Mountains;
In this way, you may be able to understand the meaning of the exercises;
However, you can also ask Chang Huan, he contributed this technique, maybe he can give more suggestions."
After listening to Gu Wanchang's words, Gu Changqing suddenly realized and made a decision:
It seems that it's time for me to go out for some travel.
After making up his mind, Gu Changqing thanked Gu Wanchang and went to the current patriarch Gu Shining.
After explaining his purpose, Gu Shining nodded and said:
"It's okay if you want to travel, but it's just not as good as in the Jiuqi Mountains. You have to be careful everywhere. If it's not necessary, don't show your sharpness too much, so as not to cause disaster;
Don’t reveal your wealth when buying spiritual items. Remember to bring all the elixirs for cultivation and healing. Be more cautious when making friends with monks..."
