Lu Jing looked around and made sure there was no one else nearby, then closed the courtyard door and said, "If a person doesn't have a secret cauldron in Niwan Palace, can he cultivate secret power?"
Xia Huai was stunned by this weird question.
It's not because this question is too difficult, but because it is too simple. No one in the entire academy, except maybe Lu Jing who is standing in front of her, doesn't know the answer to this question.
But Xia Huai came back to his senses and said patiently, "It's impossible. The secret cauldron is very important to monks. All secret power training revolves around the secret cauldron. It can be said that without the secret cauldron, it is impossible to start cultivation."
After a pause, she added, "Perhaps someone can rely on the super high secret power to cast one or two simple small spells before entering the practice, like me before, but I can't do it without setting up a cauldron and firing. Cultivate even a trace of secret power."
"Well, what if, if there is no secret cauldron but the secret power is cultivated, will it affect the learning and use of subsequent spells?" Lu Jing asked again.
After clearing out the secret power, he checked his Niwan Palace again, but except for the mass of energy, he still couldn't see any shadow of the cauldron in it.
So Lu Jing is also dizzy now. Is he embarking on spiritual practice?
"Of course it has an impact. The secret cauldron doesn't just help you absorb the refining secret power from heaven and earth," Xia Huai said without hesitation, "it is also your secret power center. As long as it is a more complex spell, you need to mobilize more Secret power is basically inseparable from the secret cauldron.”
"But, I, uh... I heard that someone can mobilize the secret power in Niwan Palace without using the secret cauldron." Lu Jing said.
"Who told you?" Xia Huai frowned, "If someone really said that to you, then he either didn't listen carefully to the secret power, or he was probably just making fun of you, and I think the latter is probably obvious. Bigger.”
"But... as far as I know, that person would not lie to me." Lu Jing smiled bitterly, "He swore to me that there was no cauldron in his upper dantian, only an inexplicable aura."
"Angry?" Xia Huai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Did you misunderstand something? The secret cauldron is not a real cauldron, but because its function is similar to that of a cauldron, it was called the secret cauldron by the predecessors.
"Actually, the shapes of secret cauldrons are all kinds of weird. Each monk's cauldron may look different."
"So...is this what it is?"
Lu Jing felt that he had once again suffered the disadvantage of being uneducated.
He actually already has the secret cauldron, but fortunately he is still looking for the cauldron all over the world...it's just like riding a donkey to find a donkey, etc. In this way, the culprit who caused him to fall into the secret power has also been found.
It's that ghost!
But Lu Jing still didn't understand why the virtual ghost made him have an extra secret cauldron after turning around in his upper dantian, so he could only continue to humbly seek advice from Xia Huai, "The secret cauldron does not come from nothingness." Was he born in?"
"That's right," Xia Huai said, "but it's actually a bit inaccurate to say that. The secret cauldron is the product of the divine soul, the air of nothingness and the yin and yang divine fire.
"The air of nothingness alone cannot be used to directly build a cauldron, because there is nothing in nothingness. If you want to build a cauldron, you need to use your soul to stir the air of nothingness and make it evolve.
"According to each person's cultivation qualifications, what evolves from the air of nothingness is also different. Generally speaking, materials that are closer to the essence of heaven and earth are more suitable for casting the secret cauldron.
"For example, my secret cauldron is the Five Elements Secret Cauldron, but setting up the cauldron is only the first step in practicing, because once the air of nothingness begins to evolve, it will inevitably produce a lot of impurities in the upper Dantian, so we have to open fire next to The yin and yang divine fire burns the secret cauldron for a hundred days, which is also the origin of the hundred-day foundation building.
"When the 100th Heavenly Secret Cauldron is forged, except for the last cloud of void energy that will be thrown into it, all other void energy will completely dissipate. Only then can the monks truly enter the path of cultivation."
After Xia Huai finished speaking, he saw Lu Jing standing aside who seemed a little dumbfounded.
Naturally, Lu Jing had never done anything like stirring up the air of nothingness, casting a cauldron, and turning on the divine fire to smelt the secret cauldron. However, listening to Xia Huai explain the process of foundation building, Lu Jing felt that it sounded familiar.
The battle between Xu Gui and Tian Yishui ended up with both sides losing, but it seemed to have inadvertently helped him complete a whole set of foundation-building processes.
The two are dead and alive, one real and one empty, fighting each other, and the gas generated somehow becomes the raw material for Lu Jing's cauldron.
And it seemed that Lu Jing knew that Lu Jing had not ignited the yin and yang divine fire. After the two died together, the remaining souls turned into two flames and flew into the secret cauldron together.
In addition, there is an even more deceptive thing. In order to cut off his Dao foundation, Lu Jing swallowed the Heavenly Life Water, which had almost consumed the original void energy. In this way, he continued to forge the steps to remove impurities. All omitted.
His secret cauldron has been extremely pure since its birth, with only two energies of life and death.
When the last ball of void energy was thrown into the secret cauldron, he completed the foundation building in just a few moments that took others hundreds of days to complete.
As a result, even if he wanted to stop halfway, he would have no chance.
But Lu Jing didn't expect that there would be more misfortunes behind him. Seeing that he hadn't spoken a word, Xia Huai thought of something again, and his expression changed, "By the way, you said that person's secret cauldron is mass energy?"
"Yes, but are there any flaws or inherent shortcomings?" Lu Jing still had the last glimmer of hope in his heart.
"No, as far as I know, only the more perfect the secret cauldron, the more likely it is to be close to the form of Qi. It seems that your friend's foundation building should be very successful," Xia Huai said, "Strange... this newcomer to the academy, Everyone except me has completed a hundred days of foundation building, why haven’t I heard that anyone’s secret cauldron is mass energy?”
"You're not the only one, there's another person who hasn't completed the foundation building." Lu Jing saw that it was difficult to hide it any longer, so he finally told the truth.
"Who?" Xia Huai still hadn't turned around yet, and felt that Lu Jing was a little strange tonight.
But then he saw Lu Jing pointing at his nose and saying, "Me."
At first, there were two people who entered Biyoudongtianluo and practiced for more than a month. Besides Xia Huai, it was Lu Jing.
They are also the only two remaining disciples of the academy who have not yet established a foundation.
However, unlike Xia Huai who had practiced for less than a hundred days, Lu Jing had never practiced at all before.
So when he suddenly heard him talking about his secret cauldron, Xia Huai was stunned for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face, "You, have you started building the foundation?"
"It's not the beginning, I've probably... already finished laying the foundation." Lu Jing said.
"You have completed a hundred days of foundation building. This is impossible. A hundred days ago, you and I had not entered the academy. How could you have started practicing since then?" Xia Huai was puzzled.
"I find it hard to believe," Lu Jing smiled bitterly, "but it seems to be the case."
