Half a month later, the big auction was held as scheduled.
After Zhang Yao took a few pieces of spiritual gold treasures at the meeting, he stopped spending a lot of money to participate in the competition for top-level spiritual weapons.
In a short period of time, the 'Thousand Changes Glazed Qi' alone was enough for him.
Compared with ten years ago, this grand auction did not include the Ruyi True Pill, which was the finale, and the competition intensity was slightly lower. However, the transaction price of the Foundation Establishment Pill reached a new high.
Wait until the big auction is over:
Zhang Yao led Peng Yuexian and others back to Cangjiang Water Mansion, and then hurried back to the Cave Mansion for retreat.
Inside the cave:
"Bah..."
Zhang Yao activated his magic power and carefully separated a trace of blood from the golden blood beads.
This dragon and carp essence and blood belong to Yuwentai after all. Zhang Yao doesn't dare to use it boldly without verifying it himself.
Although he went to meet Yu Wentai at the request of Master Haihe and it was a temporary decision. The probability that the two parties would join forces to set a trap for him was very small, close to zero, but he still did not dare to be careless.
After all, he is not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If there is really something wrong with the dragon and carp essence and blood, then he might be in trouble.
"Gudududu!"
After the vitality is transferred in, the traces of dragon and carp essence and blood are like boiling water, and even emit traces of dazzling golden light.
After Zhang Yao observed carefully for a while, he caught many ordinary fish and shrimps and several Qi-refining aquarium fish from the special fish tank, and tested them one by one.
By the time the test was completed, it was already several hours later.
"It seems there is no problem..."
Zhang Yao nodded with satisfaction and put away the slightly smaller golden blood beads.
Although his bloodline experiment that lasted for more than ten years failed, the harvest was not small. When it comes to understanding the mysteries of bloodline, some Jindan ancestors may not be able to match him.
After all, those great monks in the Golden Core Realm do not have the means to stimulate vitality, and cannot directly observe the different characteristics of bloodline inheritance like him.
And that Yuwentai is not in the Golden Core realm yet. Even if there is any forbidden method planted in the dragon's essence and blood, it would have been exposed long ago under Zhang Yao's various testing methods.
"Since there is no hidden hand, it means that you really want to send me away."
Thinking of this, Zhang Yao felt a strange emotion in his heart:
"Is this Yu Wentai's intention, or is Li Shuixian making his own decision?"
He thought for a long time and felt that Yu Wentai probably didn't mean it.
After all, Yu Wentai's status is far superior to him. Even if he knows his preferences and needs, there is no need to use the essence and blood of his own dragon carp to befriend him.
Perhaps as Li Shuixian said, she just wanted to repay the kindness she had received back then.
"That's all, since there is no problem, it can be used."
"Just think of it as a surprise."
Zhang Yao soon felt relieved and no longer thought about these trivial matters.
The six directions of true blood have been gathered, so his top priority is to seize the time to practice hard in seclusion, push his cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building as soon as possible, and then inscribe the 'Liuhe Taiyuan Return to Ruins Formation'.
After he succeeds, he can go to the Fuhaizong Mountain Gate to ask for his share of the 'Kunyuan Spiritual Liquid', thereby breaking through to the late stage of foundation building in one fell swoop, and his strength will greatly increase.
Regardless of all the calculations and conspiracies behind it, as long as the strength is improved, it will all be nothing.
…………
Inadvertently, three years passed.
On this day:
In the water veins of the Cangjiang River, a large undercurrent suddenly rose up and gathered into a whirlpool with a radius of several acres.
This invisible vortex of water veins enveloped the entire water house and stirred up the spiritual energy within a dozen miles. It was extremely powerful.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Many GCC Foundation Establishment Masters were alarmed one after another. After carefully identifying the direction of the spiritual energy, they immediately began to discuss:
"Looking in the direction, it seems to be the guild leader's cave!"
"It should be the guild leader who has made a breakthrough!"
"Yes, the guild leader's talent is extraordinary. After so many years, it's time for a breakthrough..."
While Lao Peng was chatting with Fairy Lichen, Taoist Xiangu and others, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion.
They are all veteran GCC foundation members, and it can be said that they have witnessed Zhang Yao's rise with their own eyes.
It has actually only been more than 20 years since Zhang Yao joined the GCC, but he has completed a path that ordinary people may not be able to complete in the first fifty or sixty years of foundation building.
This also includes the stage in the past few years when resources were insufficient and people relied purely on Qi refining and meditation to improve their cultivation.
Such a speed of cultivation is almost different from Tianlinggen.
"Let's go, let's go protect the guild leader!"
Lao Peng said hello, and many foundation-building masters went to the depths of the water mansion.
The breakthrough in cultivation of their own guild master is also beneficial to them——
In the early stage of foundation building, Zhang Yao's ability surpassed many in the late stage of foundation building. When he breaks through to the middle stage of foundation building, one can imagine his strength.
The breakthrough of his own leader will bring the GCC's prestige to a higher level, and the status and benefits of the major foundations will naturally increase.
And in the cave’s quiet room:
"Rumble..."
A large amount of vitality pours down, and after being transformed by Daoji, it continuously flows into the torrent of mana.
In this process, the already extremely condensed Dao Foundation is once again condensed, gradually converging towards the core point - this is the process of refining the Dao Foundation.
During the entire foundation-building period, the Dao Foundation needs to be refined three times. After the foundation-building is completed, the self-Dao Foundation will become the prototype of the Golden Elixir, and only then can you have the qualifications to attack the Golden Elixir realm.
"Hoo, hoo..."
Zhang Yao's breathing was long and his energy fluctuated, but he always maintained a sense of stability.
Monks who practice the way of refining the formation into the body have a unique advantage whether it is to break through bottlenecks or maintain themselves when breaking through the realm.
With his own Dao foundation as the big core and the five internal organs and five formations as the auxiliary small core, he could refine spiritual energy and gather mana much faster than a normal monk. It didn't take long for him to complete the spiritual energy initiation process.
After half an hour:
Zhang Yao slowly opened his eyes, his eyes as warm as jade, feeling the amazing changes in himself, he couldn't help but sigh:
"The middle stage of foundation building is finally done!"
This breakthrough is not his longest break, but it is the most memorable one.
If he hadn't made several moves to earn himself the position of leader of the GCC and possess sufficient resources, I'm afraid it would have taken at least twenty years of hard work to break through.
He is an immortal, and he seems inconspicuous in twenty years, but there are turmoils in Dali. Who knows what the situation will be like twenty years from now? Will it affect him?
One's own strength is always the confidence to cope with everything.
"Just in time to complete the formation construction in one go."
Zhang Yao waved his sleeves, and the six-sided metal vial flew out and landed in front of him.
"Bo!"
With a flick of his finger, he took the lead in opening a metal vial, and a golden blood drop slowly floated out.
This is the blood of dragon and carp. Not only is it the only dragon essence blood among the six kinds of essence blood, it is also the essence blood that Zhang Yao attaches most importance to.
"Gudong!"
Zhang Yao opened his mouth and sucked the blood of the dragon and carp into his abdomen. The drop of blood, which was obviously soft and weightless, made a dull sound like lead and mercury falling to the ground.
He wrapped the essence and blood of the dragon and carp with his magic power, and used the mysterious techniques in the "Wanhuadu Tianzhen Sutra" to weaken the essence and blood.
Silently, the emptied essence and blood passed through the esophagus, lungs, and intestines, falling straight down, and finally fell into the bladder.
The Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation is based on the direction of Liuhe and uses demon blood to simulate the wonderful movement of demon power, recreating the style of the ancient dragon clan's super formation.
Liuhe - up, down, front, back, left, right, a total of six directions, the so-called upper and lower four directions, belong to heaven and earth.
Among the six organs, the bladder is located at the lowest position, which represents the direction of "down". It is shown as "earth" and is the foundation of the formation. It is the first step and the first step to inscribe the "Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation". The most important step.
Therefore, Zhang Yao chose the most effective dragon and carp essence and blood to lay a solid foundation for the inscription formation.
"呲呲......"
There was a slightly harsh sound, like a red soldering iron thrust into the icy water.
The essence and blood of the dragon and carp, driven by the mysterious magic of Xuanmen, began to initially combine with the bladder, carving out spiritual lines one after another.
Under normal circumstances, human monks cannot absorb and refine the blood essence of demons. Unless you have the matching demon cultivation techniques, you can use it to change your bloodline bit by bit.
However, the immortal sages who created the "Wanhuadu Tianzhen Jing" used extremely sophisticated methods to control the blood essence of these demons by using array power instead of demon power.
"It's done!"
An hour later, Zhang Yao completed the construction of the first part of the formation and felt a lot more relaxed.
The whole inscription process was a breeze. After all, Zhang Yao's formation cultivation was now different from what it used to be. Even the second-level formations were easily mastered.
The 'Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation' and the 'Five Elements Gathering Spirit Formation' are also different. They don't need to be completed in one go, and the difficulty is relatively lower.
"continue!"
Zhang Yao struck while the iron was hot and opened the second metal vial.
This is the essence and blood of the 'Water-avoiding Golden Eyed Beast' that Master Haihe asked for for him. It is the best among the remaining essence and blood, and the blood level is slightly higher.
Zhang Yao used the same technique to blur the essence and blood, then carved spiritual patterns into the three burners and completed the formation construction bit by bit.
The triple burner is the largest and highest, encompassing all the internal organs. It is outside the internal organs, within the body, and appears externally in the sky.
The two phases of heaven and earth become one, and the Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation is half completed.
Immediately afterwards, there are the four major organs corresponding to the front, back, left, and right, which can also be said to be the southeast, northwest, and the gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine.
Four different kinds of essence and blood fell into the abdomen and combined with the corresponding internal organs. Using spiritual energy as the pen, spiritual thoughts as the hand, and essence and blood as the ink, the inscription of the spiritual pattern formation was gradually completed.
After all the spirit pattern formation veins are completely completed:
"boom!"
A burst of warmth broke out, and Zhang Yao felt a surge of heat all over his body, as if there was a little sun in his belly.
After the inscription of the Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation was completed, the qi and blood all over the body immediately had a new master. Just the normal circulation of the qi and blood had a tendency to grow stronger.
After Qi and blood strengthen, his muscles, bones, organs, limbs and bones will naturally become stronger, and the sensitivity of his five senses will also increase accordingly. It can be said to be an all-round strengthening.
"Good! That's great!"
There was a hint of surprise on Zhang Yao's face:
"The effect of the 'Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation' is even better than I expected!"
Among the same levels, body-refining cultivators are becoming more and more powerful, because the path of body-refining becomes more and more difficult and rare as you go up.
The internal and external combination of the 'Vajra Māra Secret Mantra Formation' and the 'Tianxuan Ming Jade Formation' alone, as well as Buddhist and Taoist practitioners, are no longer enough to compete with body-refining monks of the same level, at least they cannot shake the spiritual weapon with bare hands.
And the 'Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation', this formation that fundamentally strengthens itself, is a new way out.
"Kaka!"
Zhang Yao took out a piece of metal ore, bit it into pieces and swallowed it in a few times.
Things that could not be digested by gold and iron in the past are now quickly dissolved, ground, and digested under the spontaneous operation of the "Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation".
After waiting quietly for a while:
Zhang Yao used his spiritual thoughts to shoot at himself and noticed that the strength of some bones had increased slightly.
Although this increase is insignificant, you must know that he has just inscribed the formation and swallowed a piece of spiritual gold ore.
"If you swallow spiritual gold and precious materials for many years, and your body strength increases several times, it won't be a problem!"
"What's more, this is only part of the function of the 'Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation'..."
When Zhang Yao thought about this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, feeling both satisfied and a little regretful.
The power of the Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation indeed exceeded his expectations and was stronger than what was recorded.
But what he regretted was that because he was located in the Hundred Kingdoms of the Central Plains, the demon clan was extremely rare and the demon cultivators were shouted at by everyone, so he could only complete one castrated version, which reduced the power of the formation a lot.
"When I have extraordinary magical powers in the future, I must go to the East China Sea to catch a few dragons and refine them!"
Zhang Yao couldn't help but have such an idea in his heart, and his thoughts were flying.
"Crack!"
After sorting out his thoughts, he took out another low-grade spiritual stone, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it up like a snack.
Zhang Yao silently sensed it and found that it was at least half faster than refining the spirit stone directly after chewing it into pieces and swallowing it, and then refining it with the Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation.
"good."
Zhang Yao nodded with satisfaction.
Next, he tried swallowing magical artifacts, spiritual herbs, clam pearls and jade shells, spiritual elixirs, and other different things to test the efficacy of the Liuhe Taiyuan Guixu Formation.
This is also due to the fact that he is now extremely wealthy and has an extremely large collection of various treasures, so that he can support this kind of experiment.
finally--
Zhang Yao experienced all the functions recorded in the Kung Fu books, including increasing mana, improving cultivation, strengthening the soul, strengthening the body, recovering injuries... and so on, and gained a comprehensive understanding of the power of this formation.
"Given time, this formation will be the strongest formation!"
Zhang Yao made a precise judgment and felt extremely excited:
"The potential of this growth formation is really terrifying!"
"If it could sit on the GCC for hundreds of years and continuously swallow all kinds of treasures, it would be unimaginably powerful!"
"After a hundred years of continuous growth, even if I am not as good as the Golden Core Realm, I can at least compete with it!"
"With such strength, who can defeat me under the golden elixir?"
