Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was already thirteen years.
Thanks to the last invasion of the Mulan tribe, Tiannan has been in a period of peace for the past thirteen years. There are occasional small frictions, but they do not affect the overall situation.
This is also the general trend. Even though the good and the evil have digested most of the benefits, there is still no further dispute. The Mulan man was like a sharp sword hanging above his head, causing everyone to have no other thoughts.
Facing a common enemy, the four major forces were forced to form an alliance. In these years, a large number of elites were sent south to the Nine-Nation Alliance to take turns guarding the border defenses.
Thirteen years later, Mo Juren's gains have also been considerable, and he has officially broken through to the middle stage of pill formation.
What made him even more delighted was that the bottleneck he was worried about before did not appear. It was still the same as before forming the pill. Everything was smooth and helpless. After accumulating enough mana, he successfully crossed the mid-term threshold.
The reason why it took a full thirteen years, several years longer than he expected, was entirely because the capacity of mana in his Dantian was too high, far exceeding that of monks of the same level.
However, even if there was no bottleneck this time, he still did not take it lightly. If we keep the rapid improvement and unimpeded advantage we had at the beginning, even if we are Nascent Soul, Transformation God, or even higher realms, it will always feel a little unreasonable.
Maybe I'm overthinking it, at least it hasn't happened yet, which is much better than the Tianlinggen monks.
The other is Han Yunzhi. The effect of cleansing marrow and cutting veins is really terrifying. His cultivation speed has been greatly improved compared to before. In just five years, he has reached the peak state of the late foundation building stage.
After that, we have to prepare for breaking through the core formation stage. This step is very critical. Even if the opponent's qualifications improve, it cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof.
Is the bottleneck in the pill formation stage child's play? After all, the other party is not a Tianlinggen monk, and the change in qualifications cannot avoid this.
Of course, you can try it once or twice. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you fail. Just try again when you are fully prepared.
Naturally, the other party also had a share of the original 'Tianyun Pill', as well as the pills specially prepared by Hanzhuo to help increase the chance of forming the pill, etc.
With these, Mo Juren still felt that it was not enough. He suggested that the other party should practice the "Dayan Jue" first. It is not necessary to complete the third level like Han Li, but only the second level.
After all, the opponent in the original destiny line had never practiced this technique, and he also successfully entered the pill formation stage, but it was just decades later. Now that he is involved, everything has changed.
There is a backup copy of this magical skill in the cave's storage room, and Han Yunzhi and his three young apprentices have already started practicing it.
However, this skill also requires talent. The stronger the innate spiritual consciousness, the faster the cultivation speed.
The progress of several girls in this area is uneven, and Han Yunzhi happens to be the worst one, almost catching up with Senior Brother Lin from back then, who has yet to successfully complete the second level of cultivation after so many years of practice.
Han Yunzhi naturally had great trust in him, and he agreed without hesitation after hearing this suggestion, and spent the next eight years concentrating on practicing this technique. Fortunately, it is finally time to see the outcome.
This day, in the underground cave.
Mo Juren had already finished his practice, and his eyes were fixed on Han Yunzhi, who was still immersed in cultivation. If his perception was correct, the opponent's practice of "Dayan Jue" should have reached a critical juncture, and he was just missing the last step.
Just as he expected, only a moment passed, and he saw that the other party's eyelids trembled slightly, and the eyebrows that were originally frowned became relaxed.
Mo Juren, who had already experienced it, suddenly showed a knowing smile, finally succeeding.
Han Yunzhi also slowly opened his eyes, his clear eyes full of uncontrollable surprise. There is no doubt that "Dayan Jue" is an excellent mother. At this time, she can clearly feel the increase in the strength of her spiritual consciousness.
"How do you feel?" Mo Juren asked with a smile.
"Very good!" Han Yunzhi smiled brightly and continued,
"The spiritual consciousness has been greatly improved, and the control of mana has also been greatly improved."
"This is also the main reason why this technique can improve the success rate of forming pills." Mo Juren nodded and continued to explain,
"Now that you have mastered the second level, you can try to reach the realm of pill formation."
"Isn't it said that practicing the "Dayan Jue" to a high level will have the effect of increasing the chance of forming a pill? Now I have only successfully cultivated the second level. Isn't it a little too early?" Han Yunzhi asked a little unconfidently.
"You can try it once. It's best if you succeed. If it fails, we will find a way." Mo Juren smiled. In the original destiny line, the other party could succeed. Now, with so many changes, it doesn't make sense. Instead, fail.
Probably the only difference is the time of breakthrough, the accumulation of a large amount of resources, and the earlier marrow cleansing and vein cutting. It is normal for it to be several decades earlier than the original work.
Moreover, with many rare elixirs including 'Tianyun Pill' and the blessing of Dayan Jue, the opponent's breakthrough should be more confident.
"I listen to Brother Mo." After being encouraged, Han Yunzhi suddenly became confident.
"Do you have any plans to return to the Han family?" Mo Juren asked again. This is not a trivial matter. If Han Zhuo knew Han Yunzhi's situation, he would most likely let him go back. If he stayed in his cave, the other party would probably not feel at ease.
"I'm not going back." Han Yunzhi replied directly without thinking. Although the Han family is very good, it is not necessarily as good as here. Except for the ancestors, uncles and other relatives, the rest of the clan cannot trust it at all. Some of them may even wish that her attack failed.
"It's up to you." Mo Juren naturally had no objection and continued,
"Then you can practice in seclusion with peace of mind. Don't worry about the outside world. I will always guard you."
"Thank you, Brother Mo..." Han Yunzhi was moved and was about to say thank you when he received a light tap on his forehead.
"Do you still want to see me outside?"
"I'm just happy..." Han Yunzhi secretly licked her tongue and replied sheepishly. After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and asked again,
"By the way, when does Brother Mo plan to leave?"
When the two of them were in seclusion, Mo Juren had mentioned that he would go out to travel again. Now that he is protecting the Dharma for himself, he will not delay the other party's business, right?
"Don't worry, we'll wait until you successfully break through."
…
Winter turns to spring, and there are three more cold and hot days.
In the past three years, Mo Juren did not stay underground, but returned to the upper level to spend a leisurely time with his wives and daughters.
Every once in a while, he would return underground to check, and when he saw that Han Yunzhi was safe and sound, he would return immediately and continue his happy life.
Until one day, while chatting with a few ladies in the garden and admiring the scenery, he suddenly sensed something and his expression moved slightly.
"Husband..." Mrs. Yan noticed something and called softly.
"It's okay, Yunzhi is about to form a pill." Mo Juren came back to his senses and comforted him, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He thought it would take a few years, but he didn't expect it to arrive so soon.
Suddenly, he thought of Han Li who was far away in Tianxing City, and he would probably be there soon. When he left, the other party had already started the second round of training, and it must have been completed thirty years ago. If nothing happens, the opponent will not continue to the third turn, but will practice the third level of Dayan Jue, and then directly hit the final step.
According to his estimation, it should be about the same in another twenty years.
"Is sister Yunzhi in danger?" When they heard that it was Han Yunzhi who wanted to form a pill, all the girls looked worried. Although I have never practiced, I have been familiar with the common sense of the world of immortality for so many years. It is not so easy to break through the core formation stage, and the probability is even more frighteningly low. There are very few people who can truly succeed in one go.
"It shouldn't be a big problem." Mo Juren looked calm on the surface, but he was still a little nervous in his heart. After all, so many things had changed, and anything could happen.
His consciousness immediately explored the outside of the cave. At this time, the sky was already covered with dark clouds, thunder and lightning, and a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy gathered from all directions, forming a huge spiritual energy whirlpool.
This is exactly the change in the celestial phenomena that should occur during the pill formation period, and there is nothing unusual about it. If this situation continues, the probability of Han Yunzhi's breakthrough being successful is not small.
Mo Juren couldn't help but pray secretly, hoping that he would have better luck and that nothing would go wrong. Otherwise, it would be a big blow to Yunzhi's heart.
Such an obvious change in the celestial phenomena naturally attracted the attention of others, especially since this place is located in the Qiling Mountains, and there are many caves nearby for the disciples of this sect. It was better in the pill-forming stage, but those disciples in the foundation-building stage couldn't help but ran out to watch, staring at the sky with envy in their eyes.
Soon, as more and more spiritual energy gathered in the sky, the huge whirlpool suddenly changed its direction and began to pour down towards the cave below, before dissipating in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, all the monks in the Danjie stage who were watching nearby nodded their heads. Another Danjie monk was about to appear in the sect.
The direction he was looking at should be the location of Junior Brother Mo's cave, and the person who formed the elixir must be related to it. Thinking of this, they all took out the communication talismans and started to get excited.
Mo Juren has a bright future, and naturally there are many people who want to make friends with him. Now is a good opportunity. Sending a few words of congratulations can also bring the relationship between the two parties closer.
Inside the cave, Mo Juren naturally noticed the messenger talismans flying one after another. Just as he was about to put it in and check it out, he suddenly sensed something and his expression suddenly changed.
Without any hesitation, the whole body immediately flashed with yellow light and disappeared in an instant.
Worry appeared on the faces of all the girls. The husband had always been steady, and his expression remained unchanged even when the mountain collapsed. It is definitely no small matter to make his expression change drastically.
Could it be Sister Yunzhi?
Thinking of this, all the girls became anxious.
…
In the underground cave, Mo Juren, who appeared here instantly, saw the scene below at a glance.
On the high platform in the center, Han Yunzhi sat cross-legged, her eyes tightly closed, her pretty jade face became pale and bloodless, and a trace of pain flashed from time to time.
And around her body, there was actually a ball of spiritual energy that was one foot in diameter and extremely rich.
Mo Juren once had the experience of forming pills, so he naturally knew that all the spiritual energy from heaven and earth must be poured into the body. But it is different now. Only most of it has been instilled, and some of it is still around for unknown reasons, and there is even a faint sign of collapse.
He didn't know why this happened, but he knew that if the spiritual energy of the world really collapsed and dissipated, the pill formation would most likely fail.
After thinking for a moment, a thought came to his mind, and a black talisman appeared. With a sudden wave of his arm, the shadow of the black spiritual talisman suddenly changed, and in an instant it turned into an illusory light ball with a diameter of about ten feet, directly wrapping the spiritual energy ball together with Han Yunzhi in it.
Mo Juren did not stop, but summoned a white talisman shadow again. After the same operation, he summoned a cyan, red, and yellow talisman again.
Five illusory spiritual talismans in a row turned into five-color balls of light, layer by layer, completely covering the aura inside. In this way, the spiritual energy group that had some signs of collapse and dissipation was completely blocked.
Mo Juren's face turned slightly pale. Using five orders at once was really a big burden for him. The mana and consciousness in his body were being consumed rapidly.
He ignored these and continued to be busy. Under his control, the five-color light ball continued to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the spiritual energy in it was pressed into Han Yunzhi's body.
It wasn't until a moment later that his mana was exhausted and his consciousness was almost exhausted. He finally couldn't hold on any longer. The five-color edict dissipated instantly. He himself immediately sat cross-legged, took out a large amount of pills and began to swallow them to recover.
As for Han Yunzhi, he has tried his best. Whether he can succeed in the end depends on the fate of the other party. He felt a little regretful in his heart. He had known earlier that he would not have allowed the other party to advance so rashly. Wouldn't it be better to wait a few more years and make the other party more prepared?
It would be better if it just failed this time. If it damages the foundation, I might end up with regrets.
Mo Juren sighed slightly in his heart, but he didn't have the energy to take care of this anymore and concentrate on maintaining it. At this time, Han Yunzhi had regained his composure, but he was still practicing with his eyes closed.
Time passed slowly, three full days later.
On the high platform, Han Yunzhi finally opened his eyes, but he did not show joy, but looked ahead with a worried look. Looking at that familiar figure, I felt anxious and distressed beyond measure.
She naturally knew what happened three days ago, and the danger involved was even more unimaginable. Forcibly binding the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to complete the step of imbuing the body, at least in her knowledge, she had never heard of anyone doing this.
Even monks at the Nascent Soul stage may not have such ability.
No matter how the other party did it, it is certain that this incredible method must mean a huge price.
And all this was for herself, how could she not be moved?
At this time, she has certainly achieved a breakthrough and become a true monk in the alchemy stage. However, he didn't feel happy at all. Instead, he wanted to slap himself twice.
What about the monks in the alchemy stage, is it useful? Looking at the still pale face of my sweetheart, I don't know what to do? What's the difference between her and trash?
Slowly stand up, get as close to the other person as possible, and then sit down again.
She stopped moving, and then stared at him intently with her bright eyes open. The only thing she can do now is to stay here quietly, waiting for the other party to wake up safe and sound.
