Despite all the changes in the outside world, Xiaozhu Peak remains calm, but the person in charge is now replaced by the real person in charge, Wei Zhongran.
After Li Wuyi condensed the golden elixir, in addition to consolidating and understanding a new realm, he also had to practice many magical arts that he had never encountered before.
Wei Chituo also seemed to be stimulated by Li Wuyi and Gong Chenying. After returning to seclusion for half a year, he also broke through to the false elixir realm. After coming out of seclusion, he looked at the courtyard where Li Wuyi lived. For a long time, he seemed to fall asleep.
After making some decision, he went to Yunchun to go to the courtyard. The two talked in the courtyard for a long time, but they didn't know what they said. After that, Wei Chituo went to Laojun Peak with Yunchun who had broken through to the late stage of foundation building.
The main mission hall took over a dozen missions in one go. They didn’t know what the purpose was. They chose extremely difficult levels for each mission. This kind of mission was almost a narrow escape. The two of them accepted it like this. It was just a matter of watching.
The deacon of the mission hall was so frightened that they thought the two men had been stimulated and committed suicide.
The two of them would often go away for several months, and when they came back, they would always have a strong smell of blood on their bodies, which was disgusting to hear. Moreover, once, both of them came back seriously injured. When they returned to the sect,
Wei Chituo carried Yun Chun, who had fainted, on his back, and he managed to escape from coma the moment he landed on Xiaozhu Peak. In the end, it was Wei Zhongran who took action personally and rescued the two of them. Later, someone in the sect said that Wei and Yun took over
Among the missions, one of them was to hunt down a fake elixir monk. Unexpectedly, the person being chased had already condensed the golden elixir more than a month before the two of them arrived. This caused serious problems in the intelligence of the two.
They made a mistake and fell directly into a life-and-death situation. However, they were both resolute people. How could they be manipulated by others? The two of them unleashed their full potential and used all their magical powers. In the end, they did not hesitate to burn their essence and blood, and paid a heavy price.
After paying the price, they actually joined forces to kill the unstable Jindan master, and the two of them were seriously injured and almost died. However, due to the final result of this mission, the two of them only had this one thing after returning to the sect.
The task was completed in exchange for 50,000 spiritual stones, which can be said to be both dangerous and rewarding.
Wei Chituo and Yun Chun went to recover from their injuries for more than four months, but it would still take at least a few years for the blood essence and blood burned in the war to recover as before. However, after they recovered from their injuries, they started to go crazy again.
He took the task, and it was a very dangerous task. Everyone in the sect took a breath. These were clearly two lunatics who didn't want their lives. Wei Zhongran didn't agree with the actions of the two.
Just like he doesn't care.
But what is unexpected is that Wen Xinliang, who is also a disciple of Xiaozhu Peak, and took Lin Daqiao to practice in Shiwanda Mountain for two months, actually chose to start taking on tasks, whether from the sect or from various disciplines.
Feng, they all swept the mission hall without any scruples, but they only accepted two kinds of missions, assassination and assassination.
Their methods are completely different from those of Wei Chituo and Wei Chituo. They often follow their opponents for days or even months before they commit murder. They often kill with one blow, and their escape routes are also early. They have a premeditated plan and almost always come and go without a trace. At the same time, they are not willing to fight. If they miss a hit, they will quickly travel thousands of miles, and then lurk again, waiting for opportunities until the target is dead.
Assassination uses traps, poisoning, spreading poison, dispersing poison, and even formations. Often the opponent is completely unprepared and turns into a puddle of pus, and the two of them can transform into anything.
An ordinary monk may appear in the market and pass by each other, or pass by the neighboring table in a tea restaurant, and soon afterwards those people will evaporate completely from this world.
The four of them, Xiaozhufeng, were busy taking on tasks within the sect. Gradually, the name of Xiaozhufeng, which had been silent for a long time, reappeared in the ears of the disciples. As the tasks of the two groups of four of them continued to be handed over, along with the outside world, a
A notorious person died, and the names of these fallen people all appeared in the tasks taken by the four people, including people from the other three sects. The names of these four people became more and more popular within the sect.
The louder it got, the more it became known as the "Four Evils of Xiaozhu".
Wei Zhongran paid no attention to all this and just sorted out Xiaozhufeng's things with Miao Wangyan.
Gong Chenying has been staying in the Spiritual Planting Garden. Apart from management, she is practicing hard and not going out at all. Only Gong Chenying herself knows the reasons why she does not go out. First, the Qiongqi Purgatory Technique has almost reached the third level in its early stage.
The late stage is a critical moment for cultivation. Although it cannot be interrupted like Qi Refining Retreat, it cannot be separated for too long. In addition, after Li Yan sent the message a year ago, it seemed that he had completely lost contact with the outside world.
, the ancestral precepts of Gong Chenyingtian's Li clan engraved in her bones prevented her from having too much contact with other men, and the only one she knew well, Zhao Min, also entered a long-term seclusion, which made her unable to leave the house.
In another space that is thousands of miles away from the Demon Sect, Li Yan is sitting cross-legged in the secret room. At this moment, his eyes are slightly closed and he is breathing long. The aura outside his body has turned into a rich black color, covering his entire body.
Among them, as he was shrinking and opening regularly with his every breath, these black auras were extremely rich, but they were still flowing out continuously from the pores of Li Yan's body as he breathed, as if
Endless.
The black energy at this moment is so strong that it can directly push the golden earth spirit energy here several feet away, forming a hollow area, which is a bit like drawing the ground as a prison.
On one side of the secret room, in the surging golden spiritual energy, a huge face was staring at the black energy outside Li Yan, muttering to himself, "The spiritual energy turns into luster. This is a sign that the Guishui Qi refining has reached its extreme and is about to become liquid.
The foundation is about to be established.”
The huge face was transformed by a ray of spiritual consciousness from Pingtu. Li Yan himself
After arriving here a year ago, he has never gone out. Before coming, he went to Laojun Peak to buy a large amount of foundation-building pills, and also received his own "Foundation-Building Pill" from Wei Chongran.
Pill", Wei Zhongran was also shocked when he saw Li Yan coming to receive the "Foundation Building Pill". Although he knew that Li Yan had reached the tenth level of Qi Condensation after returning from the secret realm, he always thought that besides the rich and outrageous power in the secret realm,
In addition to the effect of his spiritual energy, Li Yan must have had other adventures in the wheel of life and death, but he didn't expect that Li Yan would come to receive the "Foundation Building Pill" more than half a year after returning to the sect. He worried that all Li Yan's cultivation base would be dispersed.
, after confirming that Li Yan had reached the late stage of the tenth level of Qi Condensation, he couldn't help but secretly admire the three major poisonous bodies of the sect, the Fragmentary Poison Body, for how it could make a Miscellaneous Spiritual Root disciple become no worse than those talented disciples.
After Wei Zhongran thought about it for a moment, he still gave the "Foundation Building Pill" to Li Yan. Normally, sect disciples only have one chance to receive the "Foundation Building Pill" for free in their lifetime, and it must be after the disciple has reached the tenth level of Qi Condensation.
You can only collect it when you are in Dzogchen, to prevent you from using it indiscriminately and wasting the elixir. Once this "Foundation Building Pill" fails to build a foundation after being used, you must buy the elixir you need when you build a foundation again in the future.
It’s just that the price is frighteningly expensive. It often takes an ordinary Qi Condensing monk to save for twenty or thirty years before he can afford to buy one. Based on the lifespan of a Qi Condensing monk, after the first foundation building failure, there will basically be another one at most.
He had the opportunity to buy elixirs to build the foundation. Li Yan's move was obviously against the sect's rules, but Wei Zhongran knew that Li Yan had the same idea as a very few disciples in the sect, that is, he rushed from the late tenth level of Qi Condensation to the big sect in one go.
Perfect, and then take advantage of the opportunity to continue attacking the foundation. However, this behavior seems to be taking advantage of the victory, but in fact there are still great hidden dangers. However, there are also successful people, such as himself, who does this.
Through Li Yan's performance in the past few years, Wei Zhongran already knows Li Yan's character. He is the kind of extremely cautious person who thinks carefully about things. He is the person with the most stable character in Xiaozhu Peak except Li Wuyi.
Like Yun Chunqu and Gong Chenying, they were taciturn and appeared to be very stable. In fact, one was extremely fierce when things happened, and the other was extremely stubborn and lacked the heart of tolerance. Therefore, in the end, Wei Zhongran decided to use the "Foundation Building Pill" after consideration.
He gave it to Li Yan and told him the timing of swallowing the elixir, precautions, etc., and explained the time for half a stick of incense to Li Yan. This made Li Yan once again feel the importance of the master. If Wei Zhongran hadn't said
, due to his negligence, he still inevitably made some subtle mistakes. Of course, there should be Pingtu's guidance at that time, but at the critical moment, I don't know if it will be too late.
In the end, Wei Zhongran still said apologetically to Li Yan, "Except for you, all the other disciples have been given guidance on their cultivation. Only your technique is special, so I can only generally tell you what I have learned and what you know, such as immortal skills."
I never gave you any advice, but you figured it out on your own. If there is anything you don’t understand in the future, you can look to your teacher.”
When he said these words, Li Yan was also moved in his heart. Most immortal cultivators are ruthless and unrighteous people. Wei Zhongran, who talks to his disciples with such apologies, should be a different kind. Li Yan has already accepted Wei Zhongran and Xiao Zhufeng.
He recognized this master in his heart, and immediately bowed seriously. After Wei Zhongran emphasized the matters needed in building the foundation, Li Yan said goodbye and left. However, what he didn't realize was that when he left, Wei Zhongran looked at him.
There was no expression in his eyes, and he seemed to have no words left.
After Li Yan prepared various elixirs, he hung a sign for retreat outside the bamboo courtyard, took out the round diamond crystal and teleported it directly to the secret room of the secret realm. He decided not to leave the retreat unless he succeeded in building the foundation this time.
After arriving in the secret room, he began a single and boring practice. The Qiongqi Purgatory Technique consumed all his spiritual power, so he practiced the Guishui Sutra to restore his spiritual power. When his spiritual power was restored, he performed the Qiongqi Purgatory Technique again...
…
Day after day, month after month, two months later, he reached the tenth level of Qi Condensation. Four months later, Qiongqi Purgatory Technique also had faint signs of breaking through to the second level. At this point, he
I began to do my best to stabilize my spiritual power. This sitting lasted for ten months. These ten months seemed to be very long, but in fact it was not. You must know that Lin Daqiao once stayed in the Qi Condensation Stage for several years.
Finally, he succeeded in breaking through the foundation building in one fell swoop.
Looking at the rich aura outside Li Yan that seemed to be condensing into water, the face that appeared in the secret room became more and more solemn. Although his technique can make people have a much higher chance of building a foundation, there is still a huge chance that
It will fail. Once the first foundation building fails, the difficulty of trying to build the foundation the second time will be at least ten times more than the first time, and the further you go, the harder it will be.
Foundation building is the first step for a cultivator to truly embark on the path to immortality. The Qi Condensation Period is just to lay a solid foundation for all of this. It uses the spiritual power of heaven and earth to change one's own physique, wash away impurities in the body, and allow the physical body to reach the minimum standard of becoming an immortal. At the same time,
The spiritual power in the body will also continue to change as the body strengthens, starting from thin and becoming thicker and thicker, until finally the Dantian is filled with rich spiritual power, and the flow becomes extremely slow. They are squeezing each other,
More space is needed, and the spiritual power will continue to be compressed with practice. At this time, a major change is required in the monk's body. The Dantian and spiritual consciousness will expand, the muscles and veins will be wider, the power of flesh and blood will be stronger, and the spiritual energy in the body will be completely
When Qi turns into water, the foundation for cultivating immortality is truly established.
Of course, the final expansion of each person's Dantian will be different. This depends on their cultivation techniques, physical constitution and other factors. This also results in some strong and weak monks at the same level.
But at this moment, Li Yan was about to face a crisis. This was something Pingtu didn't expect. The Fragmented Poison Body actually began to split at this moment.
