The bulging feeling in the meridians slowly disappeared, the large orifices returned to calm, and spiritual power and energy gradually returned to the Dantian. After everything calmed down, Zhou Yang took a long breath and began to carefully understand his own changes.
The meridians and acupuncture points are a little thicker, able to accommodate more spiritual power. The seventh spiritual energy ball appeared in the Dantian, and each air ball became solid and full, filled with majestic power.
A rough estimate is that his total spiritual power has more than tripled!
At this time, no matter how much the golden gun is used, it can be fired at least ten times, or even more.
The altar is clear, the spiritual consciousness is solidified again, and it continues to transform into the prototype of the spiritual sea. His perception is more acute, the intensity of his consciousness has more than doubled than before, and he can clearly detect the movement six to seven hundred feet away.
Zhou Yang was secretly shocked. The spiritual consciousness at the peak of the Lingtai could detect hundreds of feet, so he was only slightly inferior to the peak of the Lingtai at this time.
Breaking through the later stage of the spiritual platform is a qualitative leap. Once you reach this state, you can practice many magical powers, such as transmitting sounds into secrets, qualitative changes in the power of spiritual light, etc.
At this time, Zhou Yang's confidence doubled. The cultivators at the eighth or ninth level of the Lingtai were no longer his opponents. Fighting against the peak of the Lingtai was definitely not a problem.
Just as Zhong Pengfei said, Zhou Yang felt that the injury to his consciousness had really been alleviated, but it was just not obvious. Even so, it was a huge surprise for him.
If increasing his cultivation level can truly alleviate or even heal the wounds of his consciousness, then he has hope that if he continues to break through like this, he can slowly heal without the need of Jiang Sheng's hands.
And he resolutely chose to break through to the late stage of Lingtai, largely to verify this.
Before I knew it, more than three hours had passed. After successfully breaking through, the whole process was extremely smooth, and there was no unexpected danger. He was completely relieved and vented his anger with the long sword, feeling extremely comfortable.
There are two more tasks next, one is the Earth Fire Bird. The second is to refine the elixir.
As before, Zhou Yang stabbed the Fire Bird with his long sword repeatedly, and then put it into his storage bag. This stupid bird's perception is not very sensitive, and coupled with Zhou Yang's great improvement in cultivation, he has easily harvested dozens of fire birds in less than one stick of incense, but this is not enough, and he must continue to work hard.
An hour later, there were more than 600 dead firebird corpses in his storage bag. This time is enough, even food and drinks are enough. Besides, we can't kill them all, we have to leave some seeds anyway, maybe he will come again.
Because he had greeted his uncle before, he wouldn't be too worried if it took a while, so Zhou Yang started to use the earth fire to refine the elixir again.
With his previous experience in using earth fire, he was already familiar with it, and the success rate of the three elixirs had also increased slightly. There are three bottles of Huang Ling Dan, one hundred and fifty pieces; one bottle of Fire Ling Pill, fifty pieces; and twenty Qi Replenishing Pills have been refined.
It's not much, but it should be enough for the rest of the return trip. He couldn't wait too long. He was afraid that his uncle would be impatient, so he collected the alchemy furnace and materials, looked around, and dived into the earth fire magma again.
Entering the magma again, Zhou Yang felt something different. Not only did he not feel any discomfort, but he also had a strange feeling of not wanting to leave.
"Is it difficult to break through to the late stage of Lingtai and then be able to practice the third level? But this is not the time. The third level takes too long, so we can only wait for another day."
Zhou Yang smiled bitterly. After spending several years practicing the third level of Earth Fire Tempering Technique, he would definitely not be able to make up his mind.
However, being in the magma, he gained a little more understanding of the Earth Fire Body Tempering Technique, and he started to speed up his operation again. Sure enough, it is much smoother and more natural, and the defensive ability must have been greatly improved.
"Come back?" Zhong Pengfei, who was meditating, noticed the noise at the entrance of the cave and opened his eyes. Then he frowned: "Did you break through?"
"Well, I have no choice but to break through the ground fire." Zhou Yang said helplessly.
"Oh. That energy is not causing trouble? Also, how does the spiritual consciousness feel?" Zhong Pengfei also understands that there are no rules to follow for that energy, and no one knows when it will occur.
"No, and it also had some effect during the breakthrough. As for the spiritual consciousness, as my uncle said, it seems to be relieved."
"As expected, after returning to the sect, I immediately searched for relevant classics, preferably to find a cure." Zhong Pengfei was a little excited when he heard this.
"Uncle Master, this is exactly what I lack. In the past, I was only obsessed with practicing and earning spiritual stones, and neglected to study various classics. After I return, I will collect as many useful books as possible and spend some time studying to make up for it. I still hope that my uncle will fulfill the shortcomings here." Zhou Yang said.
"Well, you are indeed ignorant of this. Don't worry, I will help you." Zhong Pengfei nodded.
"Thank you, uncle!"
"By the way, do we still need to collect fire rock grass?"
"Let's look for some more tonight. How about we go out tomorrow?"
"Well, let's look for it." Of course Zhong Pengfei had no objection. He had also found some here before and meditated for several hours. He was very energetic at this time.
"I refined some elixirs at the ground fire. You can use them first." Zhou Yang handed half of each of the three elixirs he had just refined to his uncle. Zhong Pengfei accepted them without any politeness.
When it was daylight, Zhou Yang already had more than 20,000 fire rock grasses in his storage bag!
The two regained some strength and returned along the original route.
The snow has stopped long ago. At this time, the temperature has risen, and the sun is warm, shining warmly on people. Some of the snow in some mountains is slowly melting, but it is only the tip of the iceberg that has melted. It seems that this snow will not last for many years. It won't melt clean.
They did not climb the previous peak, but bypassed several high mountains. It doesn't hurt to walk back for a while, but climbing a mountain thousands of feet is really difficult.
When they were about to approach the boulder area, Zhou Yang whispered a few words to Zhong Pengfei, and the two dispersed.
They were not really close to the boulder area. Although the spiritual energy there was extremely abundant, people from the Three Saints Sect must have sent people to occupy it. It was extremely dangerous at this time.
Zhou Yang and Zhou Yang walked around the big rock area, one on the left and the other on the right, gradually approaching the dense forest.
Zhong Pengfei had previously used his spiritual consciousness to investigate and found that there was indeed a figure moving in the big stone area.
As they expected, the spiritual veins would be occupied by the Three Holy Sects. Afterwards, they can use this to find the spirit stone mine. Even if they can't find it, they can use it as a stronghold within the sect and send disciples to take turns to practice here. They will definitely make rapid progress.
Wherever Zhong Pengfei's consciousness went, he did not find any Tianyuan realm masters. He felt a little relieved and accelerated towards the dense forest.
Although Zhou Yang could not detect the situation there, he knew in his heart that the people of the Three Saints Sect would not give up there, so it was better not to provoke them.
The journey went smoothly. The two met at the edge of the dense forest and cautiously got in.
While on the road, Zhong Pengfei began to explain the various magical powers that can be practiced in the later stages of entering the Lingtai. The first one is to transmit sounds into secrets.
After breaking through to the seventh level of the spiritual platform, the spiritual power and spiritual consciousness of the cultivator have been greatly improved, especially the spiritual consciousness, which has a wider coverage and stronger penetrating ability, and can convey the meaning to be expressed to the other party's ears through the spiritual consciousness. .
In other words, Zhou Yang can now turn his spiritual consciousness into sound waves, and the invisible spiritual consciousness can be condensed into a line and directly transmitted to a certain target. The reason why it is called secret is that the third person cannot hear the sound transmission between them.
With Zhong Pengfei's guidance, Zhou Yang mastered it very quickly. At first he could only send out a few tens of feet, but later it expanded to a hundred feet.
As for whether he can reach the limit of his spiritual perception, he will have to study hard in the future.
The second is the lethality of aura. Zhou Yang had this kind of magical power as early as the early days of Lingtai, but it didn't have much power at that time.
By the middle stage of the Lingtai, his red line of spiritual light had already formed a certain combat power. In the later stage of breaking through the spiritual platform, the power of the aura's red line has also soared a lot, and low-grade magic weapons can easily penetrate it.
Zhong Pengfei knew that Zhou Yang's aura was powerful, but what he reminded were the techniques for using aura, how to expand the use of aura, how to conserve spiritual power while maximizing the power of aura, and the simultaneous improvement of aura and cultivation, etc. wait.
The third one is control technique. The spiritual power in the later stage of the spiritual platform is enough to control the magic weapon through the air, which can greatly increase the power of the magic weapon.
According to relevant records, in the later stage of Lingtai, one can freely control the best magic weapons. Of course, if you want to control the best magical weapons from afar, you can only do so when you reach the peak of the Lingtai.
Some control methods are recorded in detail in the last part of Xuan Gang Jue. Zhong Pengfei reminded Zhou Yang to practice diligently.
The fourth one is the spiritual light shield. Zhong Pengfei explained this in detail and taught him step by step, which enabled Zhou Yang to master this technique in a very short period of time.
Without the advice from his uncle and the help of relevant classics, Zhou Yang doesn't know when he would be able to complete it. Of course, the initial defense of the spiritual light shield was still very weak and could only resist attacks from low-grade magic weapons.
It's just that Zhou Yang is not an ordinary cultivator. His spiritual power is much stronger than that of cultivators of the same level. After mastering the key, the defense of the spiritual power light shield rapidly improves, and can even barely resist the attack of medium-grade magic weapons. This makes Zhong Pengfei wide open in shock. Mouth.
The fifth is the further concentration of spiritual consciousness, which is conducive to the formation of the sea of consciousness. Only when you reach the Tianyuan realm can you truly form a sea of consciousness. At that time, your spiritual consciousness will undergo great changes, with a qualitative leap in strength and function.
The strength of the spiritual consciousness of late-stage Lingtai and peak cultivators determines the strength of the spiritual consciousness when they reach the Tianyuan realm in the future.
In other words, if the foundation of spiritual consciousness is solid in these two stages, then in the Tianyuan realm, the scope of the sea of consciousness will be larger and stronger, and even many magical powers will be produced, which will play a huge role in battles, and even in certain situations. Sometimes it will be decisive.
Therefore, in the later stage of Lingtai, people will pay attention to the cultivation of spiritual consciousness and try every means to increase the intensity of spiritual consciousness to lay a solid foundation for breaking through to the Tianyuan realm.
Zhou Yang had never heard of the fact that spiritual consciousness could produce magical powers and form powerful combat power. He was fascinated by it for a while and had a clear sense of direction for his future cultivation path. It is not only necessary to cultivate spiritual power, but also to cultivate spiritual consciousness. Both are indispensable.
