He learned from ancient books that if he could break through to the foundation building stage, he could live to be more than two hundred years old. This was undoubtedly a huge temptation for a mortal.
The Qi refining period also has the effect of prolonging life, but it cannot increase longevity as much as the foundation building period.
After breaking through the second level of the Qi Refining Stage, he did not intend to stop there, but planned to break through to the third level in one go.
The spiritual liquid in his hand now, minus the six bottles he used to break through to the second level, still has twenty-two bottles left, which is a huge wealth among new disciples.
Lu Hao thought it should be possible to use these spiritual grass liquids to attack the third level of the Qi Refining Stage. During this period, he went out and prepared a lot of dry food.
Although with his current strength, he can barely manage to eat Xia Shiqi, he still needs to eat a small amount of food to supplement his consumption.
His whole body was glowing, as if he had turned into a divine furnace to absorb all the essence of the spiritual liquid into his body.
The spiritual energy in the body becomes more and more brilliant, constantly cleansing the body, opening up the blocked meridians, and forming the movement of the great universe.
In the early morning, the trees are green, and the water droplets on the leaves are crystal clear. They fall from the edges of the leaves and float in beautiful arcs in the air because of the wind.
Lu Hao opened the door, and the wind blew in, making it chilly.
At this time, half a year had passed since he devoted himself to seclusion. It is said that there is no time in the mountains, and there are thousands of years in the world. For the first time, he had some insights. Since his cultivation, he has spent time in seclusion again and again.
The harvest from this retreat is undoubtedly huge. He has become a monk at the third level of the Qi Refining Stage. The reason for such rapid progress is naturally due to the spiritual liquid, and the spiritual liquid in his hand has been consumed by him. .
After he got the spiritual liquid, he found time to send two bottles to Tieniu. Even so, his consumption was still terrifying. He consumed a total of twenty-six bottles of spiritual liquid. This is nearly six bottles for an ordinary disciple. It takes seven years to receive the amount.
After leaving seclusion, he does not intend to continue practicing. Now the spiritual grass liquid in his hand has been consumed. Based on his physique, if he wants to practice to the fourth level of Qi refining, he will probably have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
He wanted to find some elixirs to speed up his practice. The back mountain of Yuntian Sect was connected to an ancient ruins, including several cave ruins, which were rarely open to the public on weekdays.
This primitive ruin is extremely vast and endless. On this ruin, there are towering ancient trees, all kinds of rare and strange animals, and many old medicines growing in it.
Every year, many disciples practice on the periphery. This is a kind of tempering of the mind, and it can also bring out many spiritual medicines.
This ruins is not a kind place. There are many ferocious spiritual beasts living in it, and bloodshed often occurs.
Fortunately, this ruins seems to have been sealed with powerful magic. The spiritual beasts inside cannot break out of the seal, but people from outside can enter it. If this were not the case, Yuntian Sect might have been wiped out by the powerful spiritual beasts within.
He is in urgent need of the elixir now. If he can gain something from it, it will undoubtedly satisfy his temporary cultivation needs.
Standing outside the ruins, the ancient trees here were towering into the sky, and it looked like a primeval forest. There was a faint roar of beasts, causing a group of birds to flee in a hurry.
Through the dense jungle, Lu Hao saw a spiritual beast tens of meters long, stretching its head to eat leaves from the top of a giant tree. This guy should be a spiritual beast that eats plants. This kind of spiritual beast is extremely powerful. Generally, it will not attack people if you don't actively provoke it.
Lu Hao wandered around the ruins without going in. There was a warning sign every few meters here, reminding everyone not to risk going in if they don't have enough strength.
There are many Yuntian Sect disciples on the periphery of the ruins. These people are divided into several types. One is entering the ruins alone. These people often have some trump cards to save their lives and do not want to share the elixirs or treasures obtained with others. .
The other method is to form a small team, enter the ruins, and share the things obtained equally according to their own merits. Although this method is less rewarding, it is undoubtedly much safer.
Lu Hao wanted to join one of the teams. He did not act directly. Instead, he secretly observed that the team seemed stronger and more rigorous. After all, in the dangerous ruins, any negligence would lead to total annihilation. .
Just when he was secretly looking for a team that was more suitable for him, suddenly there was a commotion in front of him, and a young man shouted: "The senior brother from the sixth level of Qi Refining led the team into the ruins, there is still one place left, everyone, hurry up!"
Hearing this, many people crowded forward. The young man was very satisfied with the effect and began to prepare for selection.
"Count me in!" Lu Hao struggled to squeeze out of the crowd and shouted to the young man.
"Are you the Lu Hao who ranks last on the potential ranking list?" The young man glanced at him and said with some suspicion.
Although Lu Hao rarely appears in the palace on weekdays, his reputation as being tied for last place with Tieniu has spread. The most important thing is that he is the first to worship at the gate on a stretcher, so he must steadily overtake Tie Niu in the limelight. One cow.
"If you continue to cause trouble here, I don't mind letting you go back on a stretcher." The young man glanced at him with disdain and said coldly.
At this time, many people looked over. They had only heard of this person before, but now they were naturally a little curious when they saw him in person.
"You guys who don't even have hair, don't waste our time!"
Seeing Lu Hao blocking the way in front, the disciples behind immediately began to curse.
Lu Hao seemed oblivious to these harsh sounds. He formed several seals with his hands and cast several spells. Ten flying swords quickly condensed in the air. As he urged them, the flying swords flexibly shuttled between each other in the air, and then one of them The flying sword actually pierced a big tree.
The tree hole that was pierced was not big, only as thick as a thumb. What was even more surprising was that the remaining nine flying swords were connected end to end and passed through the tree hole in sequence without any contact with the big tree. .
This kind of precise control is difficult for even some high-level Qi Refining Stage monks to achieve.
"Sword and shadow spectroscopy?" Many disciples were surprised. Although this spell was extremely powerful, it was notoriously difficult to practice.
"Yes, I count you among them!" Before the young man could say anything, a bearded man in the team spoke up. He was the strongest person in the team, and his strength was at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage.
"Isn't it a rumor that Lu Hao is firmly ranked at the bottom of the rankings? This rumor is indeed unbelievable."
"Perhaps he got some kind of opportunity. In the world of cultivation, there are mediocre talents. Because of the opportunity, there are not many people who make great progress in the end."
Seeing that Lu Hao had become the last place, many people felt a little incredible and started talking about it.
When the young man heard what Big Beard said, he had no choice but to nod. The young man's name was Qin Yu. He was at the fifth level of Qi Refining and his strength was not as good as Big Beard's, so it was Big Beard who made the final decision.
