"Master, are you a martial artist or an alchemist?"
"My teacher originally chose to cultivate himself. He first cultivated his true energy, then his spiritual power, and finally cultivated his immortal power when he became an immortal." Shangqing Sanren said with a smile: "Feihong, you have a powerful spirit in your body. Power, I specially saved it for you when I helped you abolish your cultivation just now. If you are willing to become an alchemist or weapon refiner, I will help you achieve something."
Qi Feihong originally had no goals or methods for his own cultivation of immortality. But now after listening to the words of Shangqing Sanren, he suddenly became interested in alchemists and weapon refiners: "Master, if I want to become an alchemist and a weapon refiner at the same time, Will the words of the weapon refiner conflict and affect the disciple's future achievements?"
Shangqing Sanren was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "My teacher has already said that no one has ever chosen this way. You have to think carefully. After all, practicing alchemy and weapon refining at the same time requires almost as much time as practicing one alone." Several times the amount, and practicing alchemy and weapon refining at the same time requires twice as many cultivation materials, which will also limit your cultivation speed. Your time to become an immortal will be later, and the chance of becoming an immortal will be smaller."
Qi Feihong thought for a while and said seriously: "The disciple chose this way because he feels that the method he practices is still the same, and the improvement in strength will not have much impact. At most, he is practicing alchemy and weapon refining. It will take some time. Master, do you think the disciple is right to think this way?"
Shangqing Sanren nodded: "It is best for a person to only practice one kind of skill in his life. You have already practiced the Nine Transformations Heart Sutra, and you can no longer practice other skills. I discovered that the Nine Transformations Heart Sutra you practiced has something to do with it. It’s different. Master only cultivated fragments of scrolls and didn’t fully understand some key points?”
Qi Feihong was a little surprised: "Master has a sharp eye, and what the disciple is practicing is indeed the fragment of the Nine Transformations of the Heart Sutra. Previously, the disciple had a master who taught him some skills and training instructions. Later, when the master made a breakthrough, he encountered a catastrophe and was killed. The disciple was killed by the heavenly calamity. The disciple did not learn all the techniques, so the master left. The disciple had no choice but to fumble and practice alone. Many key points were made by the disciple according to the disciple's ideas. Indeed, I feel that there are many things in cultivation. I haven’t figured it out yet…”
"You practiced the fragments alone and reached the Yuanshen realm?" Shangqing Sanren was a little surprised and couldn't help but said: "So, you are definitely a genius in Yuanshen cultivation... Wait, wait until you become a teacher. Check your qualifications carefully to see what your qualifications are.”
Qi Feihong smiled bitterly and said: "Now that the disciple has lost all his cultivation and has not taken the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is really uncomfortable. Can Master wait until the disciple has refined and absorbed the power of the Foundation Establishment Pill before confirming the disciple's qualifications?"
Shangqing Sanren laughed and said, "It's because I'm verbose. Since you have made a decision, I will support your decision. Take the Foundation Establishment Pill and I will help you lay a solid foundation as soon as possible, and strive to achieve it within a month." Break through to the middle stage of the Body Refining Realm. Your main focus in the future will still be on practicing the Nine Transformations Heart Sutra, so you can’t spend too much time in the Body Refining Realm. Your master will provide you with some pills to speed up your cultivation."
Qi Feihong couldn't imagine breaking through to the middle stage of the Body Refining Realm in one month. He had practiced for so many years before and barely reached the early stage of the Body Refining Realm. Now Shangqing Sanren said that he could become an immortal cultivator in the middle stage of the Body Refining Realm in one month. In his heart I really have some doubts.
Shangqing Sanren didn't explain much and handed Qi Feihong the Foundation Establishment Pill to take. Qi Feihong still sat down cross-legged, took the Foundation Establishment Pill, and with the help of Shangqing Sanren, began to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill that he had dreamed of before.
The medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill is mainly to help those cultivators who have not yet begun to practice to establish the foundation, that is, to lay the foundation. In fact, there are several kinds of foundation-building pills, and their effects are different, but in general, the biggest effect is to help lay the foundation for immortal cultivators.
Shangqing Sanren helped Qi Feihong dissolve the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, and a pure medicinal power quickly spread throughout Qi Feihong's body.
Qi Feihong felt an unprecedented violent impact in the meridians in his body. Several blockages in the meridians were instantly washed away. Heart-wrenching pain instantly hit his brain. His consciousness flickered and he almost passed out. .
Fortunately, he was mentally prepared, endured the severe pain, and managed to keep himself from falling into a coma. It is not a good thing to fall into coma during practice. It may hurt oneself and weaken the strength, or it may damage the meridians and make it impossible to practice again. What's more, some people die directly and can only try to practice when they are reborn as humans.
Cultivation to immortality is to go against the will of nature and is full of dangers. Danger may occur during the cultivation process. Qi Feihong was mentally prepared for this. After all, he had practiced alone for many years and knew that the dangers involved were extremely high.
The pure power of the Foundation Building Pill continuously impacted the congested meridians in Qi Feihong's body, causing indescribable pain. For ordinary people, let alone endure it, even if they can just withstand the pain caused by a shock, it is still very human.
Shangqing Sanren has been paying attention to Qi Feihong's changes. His soul is more powerful than Qi Feihong. He has already silently entered Qi Feihong's body and knows everything inside Qi Feihong's body.
Shangqing Sanren didn't say what realm he was in, but it seemed that he was at least above the Fusion of God realm, otherwise he wouldn't be able to claim to be "this immortal". Only those who are cultivators of the Immortal Realm or above can call themselves immortals, and they can be considered to have touched the realm of immortals.
These are still too long ago for Qi Feihong. He has not even stepped into the threshold of an immortal cultivator yet, and he does not need to know too much.
Qi Feihong's qualifications are not very good. Among the twelve meridians, the gallbladder, liver, and lung meridians are all blocked; the large intestine, stomach, and spleen meridians are also blocked; the heart, small intestine, bladder, kidney, and pericardium meridians are also blocked. The meridian and triple burner meridian are quite smooth.
The twelve meridians of the human body connect the true qi of the heart, lungs, liver, spleen, kidneys, large intestine, small intestine, stomach, gallbladder, bladder, triple burner and other internal organs in the human body, and make them change naturally according to the twelve hours. of the week. The meridians that ordinary people talk about are actually the routes of true energy running inside the human body, and are also the basis for human beings to be able to move, speak, etc.
There is very little Qi in an ordinary person's body, just enough to maintain normal activities. This is because ordinary people don't know how to practice cultivation and rely entirely on the food they eat to maintain the stability of the true energy in their bodies. This method can only ensure the energy required for human body activities in a short period of time, so humans must have three meals a day, otherwise they will starve to death.
Starvation, to put it bluntly, means that the human body has no energy to maintain its operation. The body gradually loses vitality and eventually necrosis, causing the entire person to die.
The biggest difference between immortal cultivators and ordinary people is that they have mastered some ability to obtain true energy that is different from eating. Moreover, they can develop themselves and store more true energy, which makes them more capable than ordinary people. , and not afraid of hunger.
To put it simply, ordinary people can only rely on eating to maintain their own energy consumption. Without food, they will die soon. Immortal cultivators can directly absorb the energy between heaven and earth in some way, turn it into their own energy and store it for their own use. Immortal cultivators do not simply rely on food to obtain energy. They can rely on their skills to absorb the energy they need from the world.
Qi Feihong's twelve meridians are not as smooth as most ordinary people. In fact, these twelve meridians are connected in every normal human body. Even if they are blocked, there are only one or two at most. A person like Qi Feihong who has no access to all three meridians is considered a useless person among ordinary people, let alone a cultivator of immortality.
Qi Feihong's progress in practice was slow before, which probably had something to do with the blocked meridians in his body. It's just that Qi Feihong himself didn't know this, and thought it was slow cultivation caused by incomplete skills.
Shangqing Sanren are also a little confused. Qi Feihong clearly achieved great results when he practiced the Nine Turns Heart Sutra. Why is his meridians so poor that he has not been able to enter the middle stage of the body refining stage after practicing for many years? Although the power of the soul does not operate in the meridians, if the qualifications are so poor, how can one cultivate to the early stage of the soul realm? Even if Qi Feihong practiced the Nine Transformations Heart Sutra left by his master, he seemed unable to reach such a state.
Shangqing San people are familiar with the Nine Transformations of the Heart Sutra and are well-informed, but they can't figure out what is going on. They can only shake their heads and put aside this question for the time being. He must now help Qi Feihong refine all the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, and use this medicinal power to remove impurities from Qi Feihong's body, open up his meridians, and help Qi Feihong complete the early stages of training in the Body Refining Realm.
With a foundation-building pill, the most qualified immortal cultivator can directly cultivate from an ordinary person to the perfection of the body refining realm, and those with slightly better qualifications can also reach the middle stage of the body refining realm. But Qi Feihong will never reach such a state. He can at most reach the early stage of body refining, but only with the help of Shangqing Sanren. Because most of the medicinal power is used to open up the blocked meridians in his body.
Shangqing Sanren instantly judged the difficulty of Qi Feihong's cultivation, sighed secretly, and decisively took action, slowly gathering the power of the Foundation Establishment Pills scattered throughout Qi Feihong's body, and first attacked the blocked large intestine meridian in Qi Feihong's body. The stomach meridian and spleen meridian must be opened up.
The easy things come first and then the difficult ones. Shangqing Sanren also followed this rule and helped Qi Feihong open up the blocked meridians step by step.
