Peeping into the Immortal Road

Chapter 78 Seventh Level of Qi Refining
Five days later, Ji Chang, who had settled down again in Cangyu Market, visited his neighbors.

The current Cangyu Market is very different from the previous markets. The outer city area of ​​the previous market was the gathering place of mortals and low-level monks, but now, they have been forced to move to the newly built outer city area.

The outer city area has instead become the residence of cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining, as well as those cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining who have some wealth.

As for the inner city area, only monks with high levels of cultivation or special skills can settle here.

This is also the reason why Ji Chang decided to expose his alchemy skills.

He knew that with his cultivation level at the middle stage of Qi Refining, it was almost impossible to rent a house in the inner city without attracting attention.

The exposure of his alchemy skills provided him with a suitable reason.

Ji Chang's mansion is located in a quiet alley in the inner city. The mansion on the east side is still empty and no monks rent it.

The house on the west side is rented by a weapon refiner, who has been renting it for more than half a year.

It was probably during the period of turmoil in Jiaozhou's cultivation world that he came to Cangyu Market.

Ji Chang took out a sound transmission talisman and gently activated it with his magic power. The talisman turned into a stream of light and flew into the mansion in front of him.

Not long after, the formation of the mansion slowly opened, revealing a passage within the barrier.

Ji Chang smiled slightly, pushed open the door of the mansion and walked in. He noticed that this formation was just a defensive formation that came with the rented mansion. Its defensive capabilities were not strong and it mainly served as a warning.

Ji Chang didn't have to worry about being trapped in the magic circle and being attacked once he entered the mansion.

After entering the mansion, Ji Chang saw a middle-aged monk coming towards him. The man was tall, wearing a brown robe, with an honest look, but a shrewd look in his eyes.

The middle-aged monk bowed to Ji Chang and asked, "My name is Mei Liliang. What can I do for you?"

Ji Chang also returned the greeting and said, "I am Han Lin, a new neighbor. I came here specially to visit you. Please take care of me in the future."

There was a sense of intimacy and enthusiasm in Ji Chang's voice, and coupled with his gentle and kind appearance, it made people unconsciously feel good about him.

Mei Liliang smiled and said, "So it's Fellow Daoist Han, welcome! I'm a weapon refiner, so if you need to refine a magical weapon in the future, just come find me."

Ji Chang smiled slightly and said, "Brother Mei, you are too polite. I am an alchemist and I am new here. I hope you can give me some advice."

When he heard that Ji Chang was also a craftsman, Mei Liliang's face lit up and his attitude became even more enthusiastic.

This is not only because Ji Chang is an alchemist, it will be more convenient for him to purchase pills in the future.

More importantly, in the world of immortal cultivation, cultivators who have mastered a certain immortal cultivation skill rarely engage in such risky activities as killing and robbing.

Therefore, for Mei Liliang, having an alchemist with similar cultivation level as a neighbor would definitely make him feel more at ease than having a demon hunter in the late stage of Qi training as a neighbor.

At least, he doesn't have to worry about his safety all the time.

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious...

After some communication, Ji Chang realized that Mei Liliang was not much different from himself, with the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining and a first-class mid-grade weapon refiner.

According to him, he used to work as a guest official in a Qi-refining family until last year when the Chen family took action and destroyed the Qi-refining family he relied on.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he fled and hid in advance. This was exactly the same as the origin of Ji Chang's fabrication for himself.

It can be said that ever since the demise of several Qi-refining families in Jiaozhou, almost every independent cultivator claims that they were once a guest servant of a certain Qi-refining family.

If one calculates carefully, the number of guest officials and offerings from these families is several times more than the actual number.

The only pity is that Mei Liliang can only refine a first-grade mid-quality magical weapon. This level of magical weapon is of almost no use to Ji Chang, who is about to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining.

After chatting for about half an hour, Ji Chang said goodbye to Mei Liliang and returned to his residence.

Because he still had a lot of spirit stones in his hands, Ji Chang was not in a hurry to refine the pills. Instead, he planned to practice meditation for a while and make plans after he broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining.

Time flies, and nearly two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

One day, Ji Chang woke up from his practice. He felt the magic power in his body surging and had reached a bottleneck.

"The peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining." Ji Chang's heart moved.

"We can prepare to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining."

Thinking of this, Ji Chang did not rush for success. He first calmed down for a few days. After his mind was calm, Ji Chang took out a bottle of pills from his storage bag.

Before leaving, Master Mo Dan prepared enough realm-breaking elixirs for Ji Chang and left him eight cocoon-transforming pills.

However, with Ji Chang's aptitude of superior spiritual roots, he only needed one Cocooning Pill to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining, saving himself several years of hard work.

Of course, for other cultivators with worse qualifications, relying on breakthrough elixirs such as the Cocoon Pill to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining can save more than just several years of hard work.

Instead, it takes more than ten years or even dozens of years of hard work, but more realm-breaking elixirs are needed.

Ji Chang sat in the quiet room, surrounded by a faint spiritual energy. He took a deep breath and gently put the cocoon-transforming pill in his hand into his mouth.

Then, Ji Chang gently closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing, making his breathing longer and stronger.

The moment the pill entered his body, a powerful medicinal power burst out instantly. This power was like a flood or a beast, traveling along Ji Chang's meridians, giving him a feeling of burning and swelling pain.

However, Ji Chang did not panic. He kept his mind focused and carefully guided the medicinal power to circulate slowly in his body.

As time passed, Ji Chang's breathing was sometimes rapid and sometimes slow. The magic power in his body guided the medicinal power to continuously break through the bottleneck.

Finally, more than a month later, a slight muffled sound came from Ji Chang's body.

As if something was broken, he felt a fresh air flow instantly throughout his body. The meridians that were originally stagnant became unobstructed, and the speed of his magic power circulation increased by several times.

Ji Chang slowly opened his eyes, revealing an unconcealable joy in his eyes.

He felt that the original gaseous magic power in his dantian had become more condensed and richer.

They gathered into a thick dark purple mist, swirling and surging in it.

Seventh level of Qi refining!
