In this way, the two of them temporarily lived in a certain cave.
He began to absorb spiritual stones and improve his cultivation.
A piece of spiritual stone can sustain a foundation-building monk for a day, which shows the amount of spiritual energy contained in it.
Three days later, the spiritual energy in a piece of spiritual stone was completely sucked dry.
The spiritual energy was refining in the body. After traveling around the meridians, it entered the seventh vortex and continued to settle.
Lu Xuanji was surprised to find that his cultivation speed was a little faster.
The spiritual energy contained in the spiritual stone is purer and can be directly absorbed and transformed into true energy; however, the external spiritual energy contains impurities. After absorption, it must be continuously refined to remove the impurities before it can be transformed into true energy.
In terms of cultivation speed, it is more than three levels faster.
In Ziyang Mountain, it takes four years to advance to one level, and it only takes three years to absorb spiritual stones.
It's faster, but it costs money.
One hundred and twenty spiritual stones are consumed every year, which is a huge waste of money.
Lu Xuanji is at the seventh level of qi training, but his annual salary is fifty spirit stones.
If not, the 10,000 spirit stones collected from the ancestor may not be able to support such "squandering".
I felt a little distressed, but quickly made up my mind to continue squandering.
I am a rich man.
As for using these spirit stones to go to the market to buy some resources and improve your cultivation, forget it.
If you buy less, it won’t be of much use.
Because there is inventory in the storage bag,
But if you buy more, it will cost a lot, and it will be exposed easily, which may lead to death.
It's good to just stay here.
You don't need to be invincible in the world to come out of the mountain, as long as you reach the ninth level of Qi training, you can go out.
A year later, Ye Feixue encountered a bottleneck and was stuck at the peak of the fifth level of Qi training, unable to reach the sixth level of Qi training.
"That's not right. Isn't the Tianlinggen in front of the Nascent Soul? Isn't there a bottleneck? How come the peak of the fifth level of Qi training appears?" Lu Xuanji felt something was wrong and carefully checked Ye Feixue's body, but it was very strange. It was almost discovered that the true energy in Ye Feixue's dantian had become weaker.
"The Qi has become weak."
Lu Xuanji said uneasily and could only use his mobile phone to find the answer.
[Ding dong. According to records in a certain book, the spiritual energy in spiritual stones is pure and does not need to be tempered or purified, and can be directly absorbed to improve cultivation. However, due to the lack of tempering and purification, the tempering of the meridians is relatively weak, and the true energy lacks sharpness and is relatively weak. 】
[Taking elixirs can increase the speed of cultivation, but erysipelas may enter the body; absorbing spiritual stones can increase the speed of cultivation, but may make the true energy relatively weak. Any behavior that takes shortcuts will pay a corresponding price]
The phone rang with the answer.
Lu Xuanji was stunned for a moment, scrolling through the pages, and found the answer recorded in a certain book.
There are hundreds of thousands of books stored in mobile phones.
Lu Xuanji had only read a part of these 100,000 books. After all, if he read them one by one, he might not be able to finish them in a hundred years.
One of the books records the shortcomings of absorbing spiritual stones for practice. The spiritual energy in the spiritual stones is too pure.
If the water is clear, there will be no fish.
Just like in the previous life on earth, it was not good to survive in a sterile environment; drinking pure water every day was not good for the human body. The human body has appropriate bacteria and viruses, which are beneficial to human health, as long as they are not overdosed.
There are impurities in the external spiritual energy, which need to be continuously refined and purified before it can be absorbed. Although the speed is slower, the meridians are also refined.
Between each other, there are gains and losses.
"Xiaoxue, this is the price of taking shortcuts...but it can be made up for. As long as you continue to polish your true energy and use your true energy to temper your meridians, it only takes three months to break through the bottleneck." Lu Xuanji said his opinion. Some views.
Ye Feixue nodded.
I began to polish my true energy and temper my meridians, and no longer deliberately pursued breakthroughs.
After about three months, the bottleneck was broken, and it was a matter of course to reach the sixth level of Qi training.
In terms of time, nine months were saved.
"Congratulations, you have entered the sixth level of Qi training." Lu Xuanji said, but he was muttering in his heart.
Smelly sister, your cultivation speed is too fast.
According to this rhythm, he will soon catch up with him, or even surpass him.
"Brother, I don't want to practice anymore... I want to go find the elders of the Lu family and the monks of the Lu family." Ye Feixue said.
"No, we need to cultivate to at least the ninth level of Qi training. We are too weak. We may encounter some casual cultivators hunting and hunting outside, as well as family monks besieging us. Without the foundation of the ninth level of Qi training, we will not feel safe." Lu Xuanji said.
“But I’m restless and impatient, and I won’t be able to practice with peace of mind.”
Ye Feixue said, feeling a little bored.
Lu Xuanji also fell silent.
Not only Ye Feixue, but also Lu Xuanji was a little restless and unable to practice calmly.
Inner demons are growing.
There are dangers in practicing asceticism in seclusion.
Many monks died because of long-term seclusion and hard training, which gave rise to inner demons and became possessed.
After a period of hard training, some monks will end their training and enter the mortal world to experience, or participate in battles, or cultivate themselves.
Haste over speed, the more eager you are for success, the easier it is to go astray.
…
The original plan was to train hard for five years and reach the ninth level of Qi training in one fell swoop.
We were going down the mountain at that time.
But now it seems that it is impossible.
Both of them are restless, full of distracting thoughts, and have mental problems. As they continue to practice hard in seclusion, they may become possessed.
"Okay, then let's go out and remember to keep a low profile. This is the Thunder God Talisman, this is the Teleportation Talisman, and this is the Diamond Talisman. Remember to hold it. If you encounter an enemy that you cannot defeat, run away in time. There is no shame in running away. If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood." Before going down the mountain, Lu Xuanji handed over three talismans and kept reminding them.
In short, keep a low profile.
In a low-key manner, the main thing is to save lives.
Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy.
As for cross-level battles, life and death battles, etc., it's better to stay away.
In this way, the two people left the cave and walked towards the nearby town.
Qingshui County is located near a plain. The climate here is warm, the sunshine is sufficient, and the land is fertile, suitable for people to survive. There are a large number of towns here, and mortals live in them. Occasionally, there are Qi-training monks who appear in mortal villages and towns, buying some daily necessities.
In the county town, there is a first-level spiritual lineage, and some monks in the middle stage of Qi training serve as county magistrates.
Surrounding the plain, there are spiritual mountains scattered around Qingshui County.
On these Lingshan Mountains, some are cultivators and some are cultivators, and there are monks in all of them.
They are scattered around like a fortress, protecting the mortals of Qingshui County from being eaten by monsters or being violated by demonic cultivators.
The Lu family's Ziyang Mountain is the strongest of the surrounding spiritual mountains. It is still like a nail and is located in front of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It has become one of the main strongholds to resist the beast tide.
Lu Xuanji and Ye Feixue passed through a large number of mortal towns and headed south.
It took about a month and went through a lot of circles.
Finally, at the edge of Qingshui County, a Xiuzhenfang City appeared.
This Xiuzhenfang City is called Wujiafang City.
This is a city of the Wu family. The Wu family is a large family in Qingshui County. The highest level in the family is only the ninth floor. However, there is a monk from the Zifu in the Danyang sect, which is also a large family after the Lu family.
Not only in Qingshui County, but also in nearby Yongan County, Ping'an County, etc., there are Lingshan and industries.
