In the cave he opened, Li Qiao breathed a sigh of relief as he felt his body completely transformed into a spirit body while running the spiritual transformation method.
Normally, monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage have exercises that can speed up their practice in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but those are all cultivation methods that use acupuncture points. Li Qiao only uses the quick cultivation of meridians, and there is no cultivation process of opening up warm and nourishing acupuncture points.
Fortunately, most of the monks in the foundation building stage use spiritual power to continuously warm and nourish the bones of the whole body. Although there is no suitable method to speed up this process, it should be possible to grind it little by little in the simplest way, but the process will be slower than normal. Foundation-building monks are much slower.
Li Qiao used a large number of auxiliary elixirs to make up for the shortcomings of slow cultivation.
To achieve the perfection of foundation building, it is not enough to spiritualize the meridians and bones. Other parts of the body must also be spiritualized. However, the remaining body parts do not have such high requirements for spiritualization. It only took one year to complete. The rest of the spiritualization process.
But after practicing to this point, the difference between casual cultivators and monks with inheritance has begun to show up. Many casual cultivators simply don’t know that the body needs to be completely spiritualized after the later stage of foundation building. Although it is also possible to advance to the golden elixir, foundation building cannot Complete, it is destined that there will be no high achievements in cultivation in the future, and because the body has not been spiritualized, the body will also age normally as time goes by.
Although the cultivating families or sect monks who know the need for spiritualization have completed the spiritualization of their bodies, different spiritualization results will occur due to different techniques, different cultivation environments, and even whether there are hidden injuries to the body.
On the surface, it seems that the body has completely reached spiritualization, but the reality is that there are countless subtleties that have not reached a sufficient level of spiritualization. However, a monk whose body is spiritualized enough can keep his appearance forever after that. Aging, and monks who are not spiritually enlightened enough cannot see anything when their cultivation level is low, but as their cultivation level increases, they will gradually become older.
The reason why it is rare to see such aging cultivating families or sect monks is because such monks even have problems with their spiritual inheritance. How high can they be expected to reach in their cultivation?
Normally, Li Qiao's physical cultivation process, which uses resources to cultivate hard, will not reach a high level of spiritualization. But fortunately, he was born in the Li family, and the Li family is a family with a long history of cultivating immortals. Those who have the inheritance can The true transmission method of spiritual transformation is to check for deficiencies after the spiritual transformation is completed.
Being able to use the words "Zhenzhenfa" is enough to illustrate the preciousness of this technique. It can be said that one-third of Li Qiao's training time was spent on this spiritual "Zhenzhuanfa".
It was only at this moment that Li Qiao felt relieved when he used the Spiritualization True Transmission Method to circulate throughout his body and found that his body had completed spiritualization. This proved that he had made the right bet during the foundation-building period.
How could he be willing to gamble if there were other options?
Although after practicing to this point, you can try to advance to the golden elixir, but because Li Qiao knew the golden elixir method in advance, he did not try it directly. Instead, he practiced the prerequisite skills in the golden elixir method: Li's Visualize thoughts.
The visualization method is a method that can only be used during the process of advancing to the golden elixir. Without the visualization method, at least nine hundred and ninety-nine of a thousand foundation-building monks who advance to the golden elixir will fail.
Different forces have different methods of visualization, and the effect varies from person to person. It mainly depends on the compatibility between the monk and the method of visualization, and the method of visualization plays a very important role in the process of advancing to the golden elixir. Many monks who fail to advance to the golden elixir Most of them fell here, and the few foundation-building monks who had the opportunity to try to advance to the golden elixir for the second time mostly just changed their visualization method. This shows the role of the visualization method.
After spending several more months, Li Qiao decided to come to the family's Kung Fu Hall after he felt that he was almost done with the practice of visualization.
"I want some family monks to gain experience in advancing to the golden elixir. I wonder how many spiritual stones I need to pay?" This is not the first time I have come to the Kung Fu Hall, but it is my first time to ask about the experience of gaining the golden elixir. Because if you don't reach the level of building Ji is complete and asked in vain.
Sure enough, when the monk in charge of the Kung Fu Hall heard Li Qiao's words, the first thing he said was: "Is the foundation building complete?"
After Li Qiao confirmed, the other party led Li Qiao to a separate space, then turned around and took a test instrument to start verification.
"Don't move. This light doesn't hurt anyone. It's just to see if the surface of the body has been spiritualized!" Watchman
While the monk was talking like this, a yellow ray of light emitted from the magic weapon and shone on Li Qiao's body. Although it was the first time he faced such a scene, because he was in the family, Li Qiao had nothing to worry about.
Except for a little warm feeling when the light shines on the body, there is nothing abnormal. However, the test does not end after one exposure, but lasts for almost twenty breaths. The monk on duty of the family also explained this. One sentence: "The magic weapon is just a low-grade magic weapon, it takes a little long."
When the time was almost over, a faint layer of colorful light suddenly appeared on the surface of Li Qiao's body. Seeing this, the monk on duty immediately stopped testing the magic weapon and said: "The spiritual transformation is good!"
It is not difficult to hear a hint of envy in the tone. This is normal. After all, the monk on duty at the Gongfa Pavilion is only in the foundation building stage, and he is still some distance away from trying to advance to the golden elixir.
After confirming that Li Qiao had perfected the Foundation Establishment, he also answered the original question: "The family allows monks who have completed the Foundation Establishment to check the experience and insights of the promotion golden elixir for free, and they don't need a single spiritual stone."
Since becoming a family monk, he has rarely encountered such a free situation. Li Qiao, who was prepared to spend a lot of money, was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he could figure out the reason.
The family must also hope that the more family monks who can successfully advance to the Golden Elixir, the better. If this experience requires too many resources, it is likely to cause many monks to give up checking and reduce the number of Golden Elixir monks in the family, so it is important to improve the ability. It is understandable that the experience and understanding of the probability of advancing to the golden elixir is free.
If he can be promoted successfully, there will be golden elixir stage exercises and various spells waiting for the monks to spend resources, and this little experience and insight will not be lacking at all.
If it is a Qi training or foundation-building stage technique, he can check it directly in the Kung Fu Hall. But what Li Qiao wants to see is the content of the Golden Core stage. The process is much stricter. After three short-distance teleportations, he arrives at an unknown destination. There is a stone chamber deep underground, and a large number of jade slips are stored in it.
Li Qiao picked one up at random and checked it, only to find that it was recorded in the family's exclusive text on the experience and insights of a certain monk who succeeded in advancing to the golden elixir.
There is no limit on the viewing time here, but as the number of jade slips that Li Qiao checks increases, the speed of checking becomes faster and faster. At the end, he picks up a jade slip, which only takes a few breaths, and then replaces it with another one. .
After quickly checking all the hundreds of experience jade slips here, although Li Qiao's expression did not change much, it could be seen from his attitude of turning around and leaving that he was not in a good mood.
In fact, Li Qiao, who possesses the golden elixir method, already has a general understanding of the process of advancing to the golden elixir, but it is not very suitable for him. He looks for the experiences and insights of other monks, and also wants to see if he can get some inspiration from them and find out. A promotion path that suits you.
It's a pity that the experience and insights of hundreds of promotion golden elixirs here are all normal promotion insights. They are basically the same, and he cannot learn from them fundamentally.
The normal process of advancing to Jindan is like this.
Use acupuncture points all over the body to continuously increase and compress the spiritual power in the body, and then continuously mobilize these relatively pure spiritual powers to enter the sea of Qi in the Dantian, until these spiritual energies are compressed into more pure true essence.
It is easy to detonate spiritual power and self-destruct, but it is very difficult to continuously compress spiritual power. After reaching a certain level, it is almost impossible to continue to mobilize spiritual power into the Dantian Qi sea. At this time, a stronger transformation is needed. The power of virtual reality is not enough to see the power of divine consciousness under normal circumstances.
I don’t know which amazing person in the history of cultivating immortals invented it. The advancement process that originally required precious pills was abruptly changed to a process that mainly requires spiritual consciousness.
The visualization method requires the foundation-building monks to imagine some specific complex patterns in their hearts and continuously deepen the impression, and finally reach the point where the complex pictures can continue to move and change in their minds. Basically, most of these patterns can continue to change. condensed into one point.
This kind of practice can allow monks to gather more power of their spiritual consciousness, and eventually quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, and a trace of existence similar to the power of the soul will be produced in a very short time, and this process is often called 'Nianyi'.
To achieve one thought, in addition to visualizing
In addition to the Dharma, the requirements for mind are also very high. Monks are different from monks in that their state of mind has a great impact on Nian Yi. If you want to advance to Jindan, you must maintain the state of Nian Yi for a short period of time, and this is very difficult. Most people who advance The monks of Jindan all failed here.
The reason why the failure rate is so high is because reaching the state of Nian Yi will cause serious damage to the consciousness. Normally, there is no way to try it. In the process of advancing to the golden elixir, it is the first time to try it.
As long as you reach the Nianyi state and maintain it for enough time, your promotion to the golden elixir will be basically stable.
The power of the soul formed can not only help the pure spiritual energy in the Dantian Qi Sea to form the true essence, but also finally enter the true essence to turn it into a very stable form, so that uncontrollable changes will not occur after the loss of external force suppression. .
Based on this first ray of true energy, it travels in the body and reaches the Upper Dantian Palace, which is the source of the monks' spiritual consciousness. When the true energy, which is stronger than spiritual power, enters it, the damage caused by the state of thought will be As it is gradually repaired, the consciousness will also become stronger.
The process that previously required a trace of the power of the soul to succeed, with stronger spiritual consciousness, as long as enough strength is gathered, the true essence can be easily created without reaching the state of Nianyi.
The spiritual power in the body becomes true energy, the power of divine consciousness becomes stronger, and the promotion to the golden elixir is basically completed.
But this process, which can be used by others, has little reference value for Li Qiao. The acupuncture points on his body have never been practiced at all. At this moment, they are not much different from other spiritual parts of the body, and there is no such storage at all. The effect of spiritual power, and the process cannot be reversed, and it is impossible to re-warm and nourish the acupoints, just like a piece of meat that has been roasted, and then wants to turn it into raw meat and steam it 50%.
Now Jin Dan also has some auxiliary elixirs, but Li Qiao did not find any examples of taking elixirs to strengthen spiritual consciousness in the experience and insights he watched. Basically, they strengthen acupoints all over the body to make the spiritual power in those acupoints more powerful. Just pure.
The purer the spiritual power, the shorter the time it takes to maintain the Nianyi state, and the higher the chance of success. From this point of view, the elixirs that generally assist in advancing to the golden elixir have no effect on Li Qiao.
After leaving the Kung Fu Hall, apart from occasionally practicing visualization methods, Li Qiao often walked around the family area to look at the scenery.
There were more people coming out, and they also encountered a situation where the foundation-building cultivators were lining up to fly in the sky. Li Qiao participated again, but coincidentally, the female cultivator who was last in line was still the same one from last time.
"It hurts, be gentle!" Just as his thoughts were racing, a soft and weak voice suddenly came into Li Qiao's ears.
As soon as he heard it, he knew that the female cultivator in front felt that the hand on her shoulder was too hard. God felt sorry for him. Although Li Qiao was thinking about something, as a cultivator, it was impossible for him to lose his mind and not pay attention to the surrounding situation. degree.
It was just a normal strength, but since the other party had spoken, Li Qiao tried to be as gentle as possible.
The other party didn't say anything else after that. Li Qiao felt that the other party should remind him to be more serious and stop thinking about advancing to the golden elixir for the time being.
Although there is no suitable golden elixir method, as a monk who has found another way to build the foundation, how could Li Qiao not have some more whimsical ideas, but after seeing some experience and insights of promotion, he has a clearer understanding of some of the dangers in the promotion process. Understand that if he advances according to the method he imagined, the process can be described as a narrow escape from death.
In these days, what he often thinks about is how to reduce the occurrence of some dangerous situations, but no matter how he thinks about it, there are always crises.
Others who advance to the Golden Elixir can still survive even if they fail, but if he chooses to advance to the Golden Elixir, the process will be more dangerous and he will most likely die.
The situation he faced now was that he could either give up the Golden Elixir promotion or at least have nearly two hundred years of life left for him to squander. If he became an array master in the family, he would most likely live until his life span was exhausted.
Either try to advance to the golden elixir, and everything is easy to say, but if you fail, you will most likely die directly.
The scenery by the lake is beautiful, with the breeze blowing, waves and a few leaves flying.
Li Qiao looked at the withered yellow and flying leaves and suddenly smiled, then turned and left.
In this world, his true closest relatives are no longer around
Existing, it is not an exaggeration to say that I am the only one left.
The hesitation is not because of fear of death, but because of the calculation of gains and losses. I feel that if I die directly, the gains will not be worth the losses. Or if I try a few years later, I may have a better chance.
Amid the fluttering leaves, a sentence from a deeply remembered scene emerged in my heart:
"I can't cultivate immortality myself, so I might as well watch others cultivate immortality!"
It's not a loss to be alive until now. Some things were already destined when we first made the choice, which will lead to the current situation. It is related to the choice we made when we were young. If the original choice was a mistake, then it will be a mistake to the end.
