After the foundation is established, the spiritual energy forms a small circulation in the monk's body. The spiritual energy is endless, all the meridians are opened, and then the inside and outside merge, harmonizing between heaven and earth.
Xu Chunniang thought thoughtfully, this may be the key to the foundation-building monk's ability to fly with a sword.
Although there is spiritual energy in the body of a Qi-training monk, it does not form a whole. Only after the foundation is built, a small circulation is formed in the body, so that it can communicate with heaven and earth.
At the same time, the small circulation in the foundation-building monk's body can slowly absorb the surrounding spiritual energy to meet the body's needs.
This is the reason why monks can naturally be fasted after establishing the foundation and no longer need to take fasted pills.
And theoretically speaking, the soul of a foundation-building monk is so powerful that even if he stays awake for ten and a half days, he will not feel sleepy or tired.
After reading through the whole book, Xu Chunniang took a deep breath and closed "The Art of Sword Controlling", feeling roughly confident.
She didn't need to attend the lectures, but she could slowly read the book and fully understand the meaning and techniques.
It just takes more time to do this.
Since the main peak offers relevant courses, it is natural to encourage students to attend more lectures instead of blindly studying behind closed doors.
It's just that it's already dark today, so we might be able to set off early tomorrow to go to the main peak for lectures.
After thinking about it clearly, Xu Chunniang put away "The Art of Sword Control" and started reading another book, "Xiaoyao Jue".
This "Xiaoyao Jue" is only a thin volume, and it is a foundation-building technique.
Wanting to obtain the Golden Elixir stage requires the mental method of the Nascent Soul stage. It seems that you can only obtain it if you break through the relevant cultivation levels.
This thought flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind, then she put it aside and started reading "Xiaoyao Jue".
Compared with "Xiaoyao Jue" in the Qi training stage, the difficulty of the foundation building stage has been significantly improved.
Xu Chunniang was not anxious or annoyed, and also looked through it slowly.
If you encounter something you don’t understand, write it down secretly in your mind.
"Xiaoyao Jue" is the main skill of the sect, and there are also related courses.
After you learn how to fly with a sword, take this course.
Xu Chunniang finished reading Xiaoyaojue by the early morning of the second day.
She has not rested since she came out of Ozawa Realm. It has been five days now, but she does not feel tired at all. Instead, she is full of energy, and her ears and eyesight are clear.
This is the power of foundation-building monks.
Xu Chunniang walked out of the cave, walked towards the post boat, and borrowed a paper crane again.
The third time she rode the paper crane, she was already familiar with it and no longer had any worries.
The paper crane flew slowly towards the main peak, its small body flying very steadily in the high air.
Qianji Peak is located in the southwest corner of Xiaoyao Sect, and Xiaowu Mountain is the most remote part of Qianji Peak. Therefore, it took a full hour for Xu Chunniang to arrive at the teaching room of the main peak.
She shook her head slightly, thinking of what the sect leader had said before to win her over to the main peak.
All courses in the inner school are offered on the main peak, so this trip can indeed save a lot of time.
Although foundation-building monks have a lifespan of more than two hundred years, it often takes fifty years or even more to go from mortal to foundation-building.
For someone like Xu Chunniang, who can build a foundation within thirty years, it is considered fast.
Ordinary disciples, even if they can successfully build the foundation at the age of fifty, will only have 150 years left to live.
It is not easy to go from building a foundation to a golden elixir in this period of time.
Xu Chunniang realized the urgency of time. Cultivation is to fight for life against heaven, which is not tolerated by heaven and earth.
But Dao Fifty and Tian Yan forty-nine left a glimmer of hope.
This escaped one is the Tao.
People who cultivate themselves are fighting for this chance of survival.
She recalled the time when she first joined Xiaoyao Sect. At that time, she was illiterate and ignorant of the world. She offended the manager just for a few spiritual stones in her hand and was assigned to a remote dormitory in the back mountain.
In order to save time, she gritted her teeth and slept directly in the teaching room, and just finished learning the basic characters in a month.
Thinking of this, Xu Chunniang smiled slightly.
Decades have passed, and she seems to have never changed. She is still somewhat stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat.
She made up her mind to stay on the main peak until she learned how to control a sword.
The main peak is so big that there are not many people like her there.
When we arrived at the back of the teaching hall, we saw a huge stone curtain.
There are large and small characters engraved on the stone screen. The time is on the leftmost row, the location of the course and teaching room is written in the middle, and the name and cultivation level of the lecturer are written on the right.
At a glance, it can be seen that the lecturer's cultivation level is at the lowest stage of foundation building, and several of them have reached the golden elixir stage.
However, the golden elixir monks are busy with their affairs, and they only come to give lectures every few days.
But every time a Jindan monk gave a lecture, the seats were usually packed, and there were also many disciples who didn't occupy the seats and tried every means to "skip the class".
Xu Chunniang glanced at it. "Sword Controlling" is a basic course for foundation-building monks. It is offered every week, and there is a class today.
Coincidentally, the instructor who taught swordsmanship was named Gu Yuanan, and he was the same one who had taught Xu Chunniang's exercises in the outer sect.
She was quite impressed by Master Gu.
Master Gu's lectures were simple and easy to understand, and he had a deep understanding of the exercises. In short, he was her enlightenment teacher.
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly and walked into the teaching room according to the instructions on the stone screen.
I wonder if this current Senior Brother Gu still remembers the little qi-training female cultivator he once taught?
There were not many people in the teaching room, only four or five people sitting sparsely.
After Xu Chunniang came in, two more people walked in.
After that, there was no one else around.
These people are all inner sect disciples who have recently established foundations. Some of them are familiar to each other, but some are unknown to them. After attending classes for a few days, they have become familiar with each other.
Before Gu Yuanan came, a female cultivator looked at Xu Chunniang curiously, "I seem to have never seen you before. Which peak are you from?"
"Qianji Peak."
Xu Chunniang thought about it and decided that she should consider herself a disciple of Qianji Peak.
"Qianji Peak? I don't think I've seen you in the peak."
A male cultivator who was also from Qianji Peak walked in from the door. He frowned slightly when he heard this. He was very sure that he had never seen this female cultivator before.
"I just joined Qianji Peak, so it's normal that you don't know me."
Xu Chunniang's expression remained normal, "I was originally a disciple of the outer sect before, but I was able to join the inner sect only after building the foundation."
"You're from the outer sect, so it seems a bit too much for me to call you Junior Sister."
The female cultivator's face changed slightly, and then she showed admiration, "If you can build the foundation from the outer door, then your Taoist platform must be of a very high level, right?"
The cultivation resources of the outer sect disciples are far inferior to those of the inner sect disciples, especially when it comes to foundation building pills.
They have no teachers to rely on behind them, so they have no choice but to fight with their lives.
After the outer sect disciples established their foundation, both their will and strength were much stronger than those of the ordinary inner sect disciples.
Xu Chunniang shook her head, "It's just average."
"I only got the fifth grade, alas."
The female cultivator looked troubled, "You said it's average, which grade is it?"
