Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

Chapter 179 Bottleneck
Logically speaking, it should indeed be handed over to Li Zhirui for refining, but Li Shiqing knew that he would not leave the customs in a short time.

"Second brother is worried that Zhi Rui will be in seclusion for a long time, right?" Seeing Li Shiqing nodding, Li Shilian thought for a moment and said, "Then wait a little longer. Anyway, the family is not short of foundation-building pills now."

If there are enough foundation-building elixirs, you can try to train an alchemist again, but now there are only ten materials, and the spiritual items grown by the family will take decades to mature. They cannot afford to waste them, so it is better to play it safe. good.

And Li Zhirui, the main character in everyone's mouth, has now ended this nearly ten-year retreat!

But it's not because he successfully broke through and returned to his family to seek help from Li Shiqing to protect the Dharma, but because he encountered a bottleneck!

Li Zhirui had a feeling in his heart that if he wanted to spend time slowly by retreating alone, he might not be able to succeed in ten or twenty years.

"Alas! Why did we encounter a bottleneck at such a critical moment?" Li Zhirui sighed helplessly.

He originally thought that he would be able to step into the gate of Jindan smoothly and become a true Jindan, but he did not expect to encounter such ups and downs.

In fact, Li Zhirui had a guess as to where the bottleneck came from. It was probably because he had swallowed too many elixirs. Even though he had polished his magic and cleaned up the erysipelas, some hidden dangers were still left.

But over time, this hidden danger eventually turned into a bottleneck, blocking his way of cultivation.

To break through the bottleneck, there are two ways, the first is to spend more than ten years to solve it patiently, and the second is to go out for experience, or to increase your mood when encountering problems, or to break through the bottleneck in a life-and-death crisis.

Li Zhirui never thought of using the first solution. Although it was safe, it took too long, and now the relationship between the family and Yuan Mingzong was in conflict at some point.

So Li Zhirui had no choice but to go out to practice and seek opportunities for breakthroughs.

And it seems that he will encounter a chance when he goes out this time?
Li Zhirui frowned slightly. This vague feeling also meant that the relationship between Chance and him was not that close.

Shaking his head, not thinking about it, Li Zhirui pushed open the door of the quiet room that had been dusty for a long time, and said to Daqing and Xiaoqing: "Let's go, let's go back to Darong Island first."

grumble!
Daqing yelled suspiciously, not understanding why Li Zhirui was about to leave before breaking through.

After so many years of cultivation, Daqing is not far from the late stage of foundation establishment, and he should be able to break through in a few years.

And Xiaoqing's cultivation speed is not too slow, and he is about to break through the middle stage of foundation building. It seems that in addition to the large number of spiritual objects given by Li Zhirui, he has also taken care of his cultivation in recent years.

"I have encountered a bottleneck, and I can't break through it in a short time, so I am going to go out for a walk." Li Zhirui said with a smile.

Boo!
When Xiao Qing heard this, he screamed excitedly. Although no one restrained him, he was already tired of flying just a few hundred miles above Sequoia Island.

"I know, I know. After I get out, I'll let you out and let you have enough fun." Li Zhirui rubbed his ears, he hadn't heard such a loud eagle call for a long time, and suddenly he couldn't accept it.

Li Zhirui took his two pets back to their space, pushed open the courtyard door, and prepared to speak to the tribesmen stationed here.

"Uncle Jiu, you are finally out of seclusion!" A somewhat unfamiliar Qi Practitioner shouted in surprise.

Li Zhirui was taken aback when he heard that, Uncle Jiu?Although there were already mature members of the clan, this was the first time he heard a young man who looked like him call him Uncle Jiu.

"Well, I'm leaving customs this time to go back to the family. After a while, the family should send another Jiji to sit in the town. Let's protect Fangshi and avoid any accidents."

"Yes!" Several people responded excitedly.

Li Zhirui looked at them with some amusement, thought for a while and took out a few bottles of Jade Spirit Pill from the storage bag, and said, "Practice hard."

After finishing speaking, he summoned Xiaoqing Feitian to leave.

"Do you think Uncle Jiu has broken through to the late stage of foundation building?" Several people put away the jade bottle excitedly, and then started discussing with great interest.

"It must have been a breakthrough!"

"With Uncle Nine's aptitude, he must have broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment after retreating for such a long time."

Although Li Zhirui did not show up for a long time, the stories about him in the family did not decrease because of this. After all, his growth experience and process are indeed worthy of a special book by the Li family, setting him as an example for other clansmen.

"That Blue Wind Eagle is so majestic. It would be great if I had such a spiritual beast!"

"Don't think about it, it's a third-order spirit beast."

"I heard that Uncle Ninth's Blue Wind Eagle is often mixed with the family's Jade-billed Eagle. Maybe it can give birth to a hybrid spirit eagle."

"Even if it's true, we can't make a contract unless we can break through the foundation." Hearing this, everyone's originally excited expressions turned cold in an instant.

As children of the family, their treatment is definitely better than that of casual cultivators. They don't have to run around for sporadic resources, but it is not much easier to build a foundation than casual cultivators.

"Do you know Aunt Xuan? She is just a Four Spiritual Root, but now she is a foundation-building monk! Don't give up easily!"

Having said that, how many people can do this?
And if Li Zhirui is a role model for all members of the Li family, then Li Zhixuan is the idol of those members of the family who are not well-qualified, and will give them hope and motivation to persevere.

-

"Why did you leave the customs all of a sudden?" Li Shiqing looked at Li Zhirui who suddenly appeared in front of him, and said in surprise.

Li Zhirui pursed his lips, told about the bottleneck he encountered, and then said: "I am going to go out to practice and seek opportunities for breakthrough."

"You have just come out of seclusion. You don't know that Shi Lian broke through the golden elixir some time ago. Yuan Mingzong is no longer such a big threat to the family. You don't have to take such risks."

Now the situation of the Li family is not that bad. Although Shen Lei Shan hopes that the two families will start fighting, everyone is still calm.

Of course, it may be because you know that you can't do anything to the opponent, and if you really fight, it is completely depleting your own strength and it is not worth it.

Before the existing balance is broken, the Li family will be in a peaceful development environment.

Therefore, Li Shiqing did not want Li Zhirui to risk going out to look for opportunities to break through. Instead, he wanted to stay in the clan and slowly eliminate the bottleneck.

"Grandpa Lian formed the alchemy?" Li Zhirui looked overjoyed, he didn't expect such a good thing to happen to him after he left the customs.

Then Li Zhirui was thinking about whether to continue going out.

Although there was no external pressure, Li Zhirui was still tempted by opportunities, so he finally decided not to change his mind.

When Li Shiqing saw it, he knew that Li Zhirui didn't listen. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Before you leave, first help the family refine ten furnaces of foundation-building pills."
