Bailang's retreat this time was longer than he expected. He thought one or two days would be enough, but in fact it took a full five days.
Bailang spent three and a half days without realizing it. He later recalled that these three days were the period when he entered the breakthrough state after taking two Xiao Pei Yuan Dan. At that time, he fell into a mysterious state of double changes in body and soul. Unexpectedly, three and a half days passed in such a blink of an eye.
From this, Bai Lang couldn't help but think of those legends, about how an immortal would retreat for thousands of years. Judging from his experience this time, it is not impossible. This is especially true when others need to comprehend and understand Taoism when practicing like others.
In the next day and a half, Bailang carefully consolidated his skills after breaking through the realm, and at the same time, he also made changes in all aspects after entering the Xuanmai realm. Including spells, as well as the changes to the physical body after the limit of ten bone-strengthening pills is reached this time and "Mountain Like a Mountain" enters the mastery stage.
However, after a day and a half of self-sorting and coming out, Bailang didn't have a clear understanding of his current situation.
All aspects have indeed been enhanced a lot, and some are even stronger than Bailang's own prior expectations. But even so, Bai Lang was still not sure how much stronger he was now compared to when he was in the late stage of the Qi Entraining Realm. Double or triple? Or will it be more than twice as powerful in a real fight? What's more, he is still a martial arts fellow, so it is difficult to have a clear understanding of combat power by just sorting it out by yourself.
So instead of thinking about it in the room, it is better to leave it to be understood later. Anyway, the realm has been consolidated and there is no need to retreat.
"Congratulations to Zuodao for your great improvement in cultivation!"
When Bai Lang came out of the secret room and saw Yang Xiu for the first time, Yang Xiu knelt on the ground and congratulated him loudly. Bai Lang was also stunned for a moment.
"Oh? Can you see my cultivation?"
"No, my subordinates guessed it from the look on Zuodao's face. Although Zuodao used to be brave and handsome, he didn't look as lively and energetic as he does now. I heard others say that Qi practitioners have made great progress in their cultivation. Sometimes there will be such external manifestations, so my subordinates speak boldly."
"Really?" Bai Lang also felt a little confused. What Yang Xiu was talking about should be the surge in vitality brought about by the jump in life levels after his breakthrough. It should overflow in a short period of time, and should calm down after a while. alright.
Looking around, Bai Lang found that besides Yang Xiu, the other five disciples under him were also present. It was probably Yang Xiu who had called to protect him.
So he thought about it and said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit it. There are four small Peiyuan Pills here. You choose four of them to use first. I will protect you."
Finally, at Bailang's insistence, Yang Xiu was also selected among the four.
Bai Lang still brought out his ability of [preaching and teaching]. He first talked about how to absorb Xiao Pei Yuan Dan, and then in the side hall outside the secret room with Bai Lang's protection, Yang Xiu and the other four swallowed it and handed it to their hands. Xiao Pei Yuan Dan, and at the same time began to meditate to absorb it with all his strength.
This was Bailang's first time watching others absorb the power of the elixir.
Bailang found that compared to when he took the elixir, which was directly converted into data and turned into experience, to put it simply and crudely, after Yang Xiu and the others took the elixir, they needed to rely on the exercises they had practiced to circulate and absorb spiritual energy in circles, and at this speed It is also limited by their cultivation and talent, that is, their affinity for spiritual energy.
However, Bailang senses many of the detailed changes in these people's bodies by being close to them. In the process of each spiritual energy cycle, they will suddenly and inexplicably increase the speed and effect of absorption, like a flash of inspiration, and barely let the elixir. The potency of the medicine will not be wasted because it is inhaled too slowly.
This shows that the [Preaching and Instructing] that Bailang tried on a whim just now can still be effective when he swallows the pill. Otherwise, with the talent and cultivation of Yang Xiu and others, it is possible to waste the medicinal power in Xiao Pei Yuan Dan.
But even with Bai Lang's help, after absorbing a small Pei Yuan Dan, Bai Lang was keenly aware that their meridians and Dantian were somewhat unable to withstand the power of the medicine. To put it bluntly, it’s already a bit full! And with their talents and cultivation, they don’t know how long it will take to completely alleviate this short-term spiritual energy expansion, at least a month or two or even longer.
No wonder Qi practitioners with low talent are struggling, because if they are not talented enough, they are not even qualified to take medicine to push themselves up. It may even be disabled by the power of the medicine. Bailang thought so in his heart.
However, with the help of Bai Lang, this little Pei Yuan Dan can be considered a success. And at the beginning, Bai Lang's goal was achieved. With the help of the medicine, Yang Xiu and the four of them were brought to the early stage of the Qi Entraining Realm, which originally took a long time to reach.
Now the four of them, Yang Xiu, have officially entered the realm of Qi Practitioners and have reached their true realm. Although there is no realm barrier to this kind of improvement, it is truly a sign of a firm foothold as a Qi practitioner. The most intuitive thing is that spiritual energy can activate most basic spells, and magic weapons can be used without the help of spiritual stones.
Although the realm has been successfully entered, one cannot escape from it immediately, but the most critical period has passed. Therefore, Bailang's support must continue. However, he did not just sit there, but turned to chat with the remaining two disciples who were not assigned to Xiao Pei Yuan Dan.
"Don't be envious. They are just taking the first step. The second batch of Little Peiyuan Dan will come soon. Then I will also help you protect you and ensure that you can smoothly enter the early stage of the Qi-Entraining Realm."
"Thank you Zuodao Enyi!"
After all, he was the one chosen by Yang Xiu. His words were not too fancy and he was the same model.
"Come, sit over here, now I have time to tell you something new.
Wu Xiu, do you know? Haha, he is not a warrior, but he has many similarities with the warrior system. At the same time, martial arts also rely on martial arts, but what is stimulated is not the true energy of the warrior but the spiritual energy of the practitioner. Your talents are average and your achievements are very limited. I estimate that the middle stage of the Qi Entraining Realm will be your limit. It may not even be possible.
So instead of sticking to one path, you might as well learn another one. Anyway, if you don’t pursue a high level of cultivation, you will have enough time. When the time comes, martial arts practitioners will definitely be much stronger than those who only practice martial arts in the early and middle stages of entraining qi.
Would you like to try it? "
Naturally, the remaining two people had their heads knocked off, and they couldn't hide the surprises.
So Bai Lang directly narrated the opening part of "Mountain Like a Mountain" that he had practiced to the two of them. And he said it three times in a row. After that, he carefully guided the two of them to understand that spiritual energy merges into the meridians of the physical body instead of circulating through the meridians and gathering in the Dantian.
The difference between the two approaches is easy to understand but not easy to implement. Fortunately, these two people are just starting out and don't have much inertia in practice. They can still get started after trying hard.
Bai Lang even discovered that these two people understood martial arts cultivation faster than Shu cultivation.
"Take these two bone-strengthening pills first and see the effect." Bailang was unambiguous and stuffed each of them with one bone-strengthening pill. He relied on his incredible ability of [Preaching and Instructing] to find a new way for the few disciples in the upper limit and force them to gain extra combat power.
If it doesn't work, it's just a waste of two pills. If it can be done, then there is really room for increasing the combat power of the remaining disciple.
