Zheng Jing's team has not returned yet, and the beauty-loving Liu Yanshi is missing, so Liu Yuan has no choice but to continue practicing behind closed doors in his residence.
He was now faced with a problem, or rather a doubt.
Frequently summoning ant colonies in the valley caused his reserve of spirit-restoring elixirs to be nearly exhausted. However, during the time when he stopped using the elixirs on his return trip, his spiritual consciousness was still recovering slowly and steadily, although the recovery speed was not as fast as that of the elixirs. supplement, but it is much faster than simply meditating.
Do these two elixirs also have residual medicinal properties?
But when you think about it, it is unlikely. In general, the medicinal properties will become worse and worse, because resistance will appear. It is even less likely to have a lasting effect if it is stopped.
Liu Yuan planned to use this time to find out what was going on.
The opportunity came quickly. On this day, after summoning the ant colony hundreds of times for many days, Liu Yuan finally discovered a rare new species.
The book called it a bull ant, and Liu Yuan remembered that it might be a bull ant from another time and space.
This ant is extremely powerful...well...for its size, of course.
Therefore, every time he meditates and enters the state of selflessness, Liu Yuan is also looking forward to how this kind of bull ant will evolve.
Sure enough, after several rounds of survival of the fittest, the new generation of bull ants grew two huge pincers on their heads, covered with sharp serrations, and their bite force was amazing. After their demonization, they are also the largest among all ants, as big as a hedgehog. Although the strength is not as high as that of a half-human cat demon. But the advantage lies in numbers.
But at the same time, Liu Yuan also noticed that whenever evolution took effect, the recovery bonus of the divine mind disappeared.
It turns out that the spiritual mind recovery bonus also comes from the air film? And it’s a choice between two?
When did it appear?
The reason why Liu Yuan likes to play chess is because every move can reflect the strict cause and effect relationship, and the logical reasoning process reflects the fun of thinking. It was the same now, and he began to deduce the whole story. From the changes in the air film technique, to the encounter at Tianqin Peak, as well as the evolution of the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Ant Colony, to the strange bonus after taking the God-Returning Pill, and the optional special effects of the air film. These various phenomena are integrated together. In the end, only one conclusion can be drawn:
My own air membrane technique is constantly gaining new abilities, and the source of my abilities is the pills I take.
The evolution of ants comes from the marrow-cleansing ability of Qi, which he can basically confirm.
Now that these two things were confirmed, Liu Yuan began to re-examine his own cultivation path.
Xiao Wen is right. His air membrane technique is so malleable and his learning ability is indeed very good.
In the future, we must insist on focusing on the air film and develop our own related abilities.
In addition, due to the disadvantages of pseudo-spiritual roots, the growth rate of spiritual energy is not enough, so we should make use of our strengths and avoid weaknesses, and follow the cultivation route related to spiritual thoughts.
If there was advice from an expert or someone from a noble family, I'm afraid no one would be optimistic about Liu Yuan's decision. Generally speaking, the path to immortality is mainly about improving the realm, and the climb to the peak of the realm relies on the infusion and transformation of spiritual energy. The foundation is built bit by bit over time, and the Tao can be achieved after experiencing various realizations and opportunities.
As for the practice of magic, it still applies to the old saying - abandon the basic and pursue the weak.
However, there are practitioners who take the path of refining gods, but it is too unconventional and extremely dangerous. So it was ultimately regarded as a heretic. There are even evil cultivators advocating this practice.
Liu Yuan occupied both of these crooked paths. Of course he was ignorant and fearless and would not care about them at all. He is now slowly preparing his next plan with confidence.
The first thing is to test the air film technique's ability to comprehend elixirs. He was now looking forward to this spell.
There were only five Peiyuan Pills left in the storage bag, so he went to Fangshi to replenish the God-Returning Pills, and also bought a lot of various pills. The spirit stones exchanged for the flesh and blood of dozens of armored dragons were thrown out before they could be warmed.
Will eating so many elixirs cause poisoning or obsession?
Probably so.
Liu Yuan was also muttering in his heart. He was too excited all of a sudden, and this was an impulsive purchase. It’s better to choose a more cautious approach. He planned to refine and absorb the five Peiyuan Pills one by one.
This was not the first time he had taken the Peiyuan Pill. Liu Yuan meditated, channeled his luck, and introduced the power of the Peiyuan Pill into his limbs and bones, converting it into his own spiritual power.
Since this was a conscious experiment, Liu Yuan still had a sense of clarity and was exploring the immediate status of his body and air membrane.
As the medicine was refined bit by bit, Liu Yuan could feel his spiritual power growing rapidly, but other than that, there were no surprising changes.
You can't learn it so quickly with just one pill, right? Well, let's do it again.
Liu Yuan swallowed the second Peiyuan Pill.
The third one...
…
After taking all five Pei Yuan Pills, Liu Yuan felt that he was almost reaching his limit. He suddenly became alert and secretly cursed himself for being impatient.
As the saying goes, too much is not enough, medicine that is too powerful can be harmful. If not properly guided, it will be like a flood, which will damage the meridians. So he began to concentrate on dispelling the power of the medicine. The power of the Peiyuan Dan continued continuously. Liu Yuan felt that his meridians were swollen to the point of bursting, his whole body was unbearably hot, and there was an indescribable feeling of suffocation and discomfort that he couldn't find a way to stop.
It seems that even if all the spiritual energy is refined, damage to the meridians is inevitable. However, while the meridians are being damaged, they are also being continuously impacted, and may be transformed to become wider and tougher.
It's a mixed blessing.
Fortunately, the air film is evenly attached to the body at this time, echoing the pulse of his meridians, and plays a buffering and mediating role, reducing the damage to the meridians. However, other than that, there are no expected new abilities.
Just when Liu Yuan was silently suffering from the saturation of his meridians, an unexpected thing happened.
The ant colony surrounding it was still the same as before, each on their own alert without receiving an order.
Except stone ants.
This ant crawled close to Liu Yuan and entered the envelope of the air film. The scene when hunting the Ankylosaurus reappeared, and their bodies lit up with a faint aura. Not only that, the excess spiritual energy running around in Liu Yuan's body was also transferred to the stone ant colony through the air film, slowly but steadily.
The bulging spiritual energy in his body had an outlet and immediately began to flow in one direction. Liu Yuan felt relieved and took the opportunity to divert and absorb it. Finally, we have taken the first step towards a controllable trend, and things will be easier to handle next.
As for the stone ants, except for the first few that received the spiritual energy and couldn't bear it and exploded to death, the remaining stone ants persisted. There was spiritual energy flowing in their bodies, and they were refining and absorbing it like practitioners. There is no change in appearance.
A day and a night passed, and there was still no visible change in the stone ants. However, Liu Yuan's aura changed from violent to stable, and the process repeated itself over and over again. The power of each violent rage is decreasing, each stable time is also increasing, and with each cycle, something different is ready to emerge from the depths of the breath.
Finally, on the third day, spiritual energy began to gather from the outside to the inside, and the gathering speed became faster and faster, forming a mini vortex in the small room.
Suddenly, Liu Yuan's independent living room shook slightly, and the spiritual energy around him was also disturbed. The disturbance lasted for a full quarter of an hour before finally calming down.
The eighth level of Qi refining stage: get through!
Liu Yuan couldn't help but let out a long roar, full of joy and joy.
The whistling sound shot straight into the sky and could be clearly heard several miles above his room.
In the clouds there, a gray figure gradually emerged.
