Chapter 169 Master Tao returns to the mountain

And on the last three days of each month, Xiao Lin would still go back to the Green Bamboo Peak, enter the Chuanfa Building, and humbly ask the masters and uncles in the foundation stage about some cultivation issues.

Originally, Xiao Lin was worried that after he left, there would be no one to water the spiritual field, but after the experiment, he found that the spiritual grass in the spiritual field would not be affected at all if it was not irrigated within three to five days.

This also made Xiao Lin set aside three or five days every month to go back to Green Bamboo Peak. The academy of the door, to learn all kinds of common sense of comprehension.

He has read the Qingyan Baolu no less than ten times, but he still doesn't understand the content recorded in it. This is not because he is not good at understanding, but because the ancient seal script in this Qingyan Baolu is very obscure, and there are many words Xiao Lin I have never seen it at all, and naturally I have no way of understanding the meaning of it.

Moreover, through the teachings of the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the problems Xiao Lin encountered in cultivation began to be solved one by one. For example, when he used to fight with others, if the speed of mana input was too fast, it would be drawn to the meridians, causing him to feel sore all over his body. No end, even after the fight is over, this pain will last for several days.

Through studying and humbly asking for advice, Xiao Lin understands that this is mainly due to a problem with the continuity of his old and new mana. Every spell will violently draw the mana in the meridians at the moment of casting. among.

At the moment the spell is cast, it will continue to absorb the mana in the body, and only when the mana fills the whole body, can the mana in the meridians be suddenly emptied due to the completion of the spell, which will cause the meridians to shrink, and the mana in the dantian will travel through the meridians again At this time, the meridians will expand again, such a contraction and expansion will naturally cause discomfort in the meridians, resulting in endless pain.

In the process of learning, Xiao Lin also understood that the practice of spells by a cultivator is usually placed after the establishment of the foundation. , the best age for foundation building is before the age of 30.

After this time limit, the success rate of foundation building will be greatly reduced, so when those masters and uncles in the foundation building period teach the law, they will emphasize that they should not spend too much energy and time on the practice of spells before the foundation building above.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Lin also decided to suspend his practice of spells, and he dispelled his original idea of ​​going to the Immortal City to see the seals.

It should be said that before joining the sect, he practiced spells desperately in order to improve his combat power. Fortunately, he was able to pick purple spirit flowers in the crypt trial and join the five major sects. Now this goal has been achieved.

Naturally, Xiao Lin didn't need to waste time on cultivating spells. His most urgent thing now was to refine the five-element elixir and improve his cultivation. Only when he reached the state of Dzogchen in the Qi refining period as soon as possible could he try to build a foundation.

On this day, Xiao Lin, who was meditating in the alchemy room, opened his eyes. Although the mana in his body was flowing, he still had a trace of helplessness on his face. The aura on the spiritual field is also very strong, but this speed of cultivation still makes him extremely dissatisfied.

The feeling of taking the elixir to make his cultivation level rise steadily made him fond of aftertaste, but after a little thought, Xiao Lin put a smile on his face again.

The Five Elements Spirit Grass in the Spirit Wood Space has already been harvested twice, and there are dozens of them in number. As for the Bingyin Grass and Firescale Fruit, since they are only auxiliary medicinal materials, the demand is not too much. Also barely enough.

It's just that some common auxiliary herbs are still missing. Although these auxiliary herbs are available in Master Tao's stone palace, Xiao Lin dare not take them lightly. If they are discovered, his secret may be leaked out.

After thinking about it, Xiao Lin still decided to go to Xueling Immortal City to buy more auxiliary herbs, so that he could start refining the five elements elixir.

In addition to the Five Elements Spirit Pill, the more important thing is the Foundation Establishment Pill. After Xiao Lin got the formula of the Foundation Establishment Pill, he also decided to refine it himself. The refining of the Foundation Establishment Pill is not only very precious as the purple spirit flower, but also The most important thing is a kind of spiritual grass called Dichencao.

The rest of the auxiliary medicinal herbs are relatively common. In Xiao Lin's opinion, as long as he goes to Xueling Immortal City by himself, he can prepare them all.

But this dust-cleaning grass is also a precious second-order spiritual grass, and the dust-cleaning grass used to refine the foundation pill needs to be at least 120 years old, that is, it is fully mature.

Although the Dichencao is precious, it is not without it in Dancao Mountain, because Xiao Lin learned from the letter of Master Tao that the reason why the Foundation Establishment Pill is so precious is actually the bottleneck mainly lies in the purple spirit flower, the Dichencao In contrast, it can be cultivated through spiritual fields.

It's just that the spiritual fields for cultivating Dichen grass are all dedicated spiritual fields, and the number is not too large. After all, no matter how much Dichen grass is planted, it will be of little use if there is not enough purple spirit flowers.

But regardless of whether he can get the dust-cleaning grass from the sect, Xiao Lin decided to prepare the rest of the auxiliary herbs first, so that as long as he can get the dust-cleaning grass and cultivate it for a few crops, he can start refining the foundation building pill .

And when teaching the method every month, those uncles and uncles in the foundation building period will also focus on explaining the difficulties and precautions in the foundation building period to these outer disciples in the qi refining period.

In the final analysis, a cultivator's foundation building is a kind of sublimation of life level. During the whole foundation building process, not only will he cleanse his own turbidity, but also strengthen his spiritual consciousness. More importantly, through building a foundation, he can compress and purify the cultivator again. The mana in the dantian.

Therefore, the difference between the Qi refining period and the foundation building period seems to be a realm, but it is actually very different. Even in the cultivation world, many monks will call this difference the difference between immortals and ordinary people.

From this we can see the gap between the two. In the process of listening carefully, Xiao Lin couldn't help but think of the Nine Violents of the Snow City. The most culprit was that he had once fought against a monk in the foundation period, and he escaped from the hands of that monk in the foundation period.

As for the monks in the Qi refining period who want to build a foundation, except for the darlings favored by heaven such as Tianlinggen, they all need the assistance of the Foundation Establishment Pill. The effect of marrow, and then loosen the bottleneck of foundation building, so as to achieve the purpose of reborn.

And the Foundation Establishment Pill cannot be eaten without limit. During the process of listening to the Fa, Xiao Lin also learned that no matter how many times a monk fails to establish a foundation, he can only swallow up to nine Foundation Establishment Pills in a lifetime.

If a monk in the Qi refining period swallows nine foundation building pills but still fails to build a foundation, then this person is doomed to be unable to build a foundation in this life, and no matter how many foundation building pills he takes, it will not help.

When I heard this, Xiao Lin originally thought that by refining a large number of foundation-building pills to force himself into the foundation-building stage, he was completely shattered, but after listening to the detailed explanation of the foundation-building master After understanding the reason, Xiao Lin finally understood.

Establishing Foundation Pill is like a kind of elixir. When you take one pill, it can clear the turbidity in a person's body by a few points. Much bigger.

And this process is limited, assuming that taking one pill of building foundation can remove half of the turbidity in the monk's body, then taking the second pill may only remove half of the remaining half of the turbidity in the monk's body, and so on. After taking a certain amount of Foundation Establishment Pill, either the medicinal effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill itself is not enough to remove the residual turbidity in the monk's body.

Either the turbidity in the cultivator's body is too stubborn, even the Foundation Establishment Pill cannot clear it away. In this case, if this person wants to establish the foundation again, it is nothing more than a dream.

But for the outer disciples of Dancao Mountain, there is no need to consider this concern at all, because it is basically impossible for even the son of the head of the sect to get nine Foundation Establishment Pills at once.

Even if it is Fan Lingen, if there are nine foundation building pills, there is at least a [-]% to [-]% chance of success in foundation building. Of course, it is impossible for Dancao Mountain to waste all nine foundation building pills on an outer disciple of Fan Linggen body.

The foundation-building pills distributed by Dancao Mountain every year are only a few dozen pills. Compared with the tens of thousands of outer sect disciples in the qi refining period, it is nothing more than a drop in the bucket. In terms of seniority, it is considered based on comprehensive factors such as background, qualifications, and cultivation.

So although on the surface, in a sect like Dancao Mountain, every outer disciple who is under the age of 35 and who has completed the qi refining period has a chance to get a foundation building pill, but in fact, many people wait until they are seventy or eighty. , also did not turn.

This is also the main reason why every time the Catacombs are opened, in addition to a large number of casual cultivators, there are also a large number of sect disciples participating, because in the five major sects, as long as you get a purple spirit flower through the Catacombs Trial, you can indeed With this purple spirit flower in exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill, there is no need to wait in line.

After understanding this point, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel very lucky. If he didn't have such a heaven-defying place as the spirit wood space, even if he joined the five major sects, with his own cultivation, aptitude and background, the probability of getting the foundation building pill is really high. not big.

At the same time, his heart was moved. Apart from the purple spirit flower that was exchanged for Dao Token, there were three other purple spirit flowers on his body. Should he directly exchange for three Foundation Establishment Pills?
But as soon as this idea came up, it was dismissed by Xiao Lin, not to mention whether the three foundation building pills can make him build a foundation smoothly, even if he really took out three purple spirit flowers, there are nine out of ten foundation building pills. If you don't get it, you will suffer disaster even with yourself.

Because it is very simple, if he took out the purple spirit flower, it means that he hid something private during the trial in the crypt, and the sect will definitely investigate the reason, and the secret of his spirit wood space may be very secret by then. It's hard to hide.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lin stood up and was about to water the spiritual field, when there was a hasty knock on the stone door.

Xiao Lin was slightly taken aback, and then a helpless smile appeared on his face. Needless to say, the person who knocked on the door must be the laughing senior brother. Since he took over the chores of taking care of the Lingtian, this senior brother has disappeared every now and then.

Xiao Lin waved his hand and opened the stone door.

A childish but anxious face appeared outside the stone gate.

"Quick, get ready, Master Tao is back."
