Chapter 148 Two Hardships

Chapter 148

After the school competition, the selected disciples were all excited. Tong Xiaoye and Xu Zhanming bought wild game to celebrate. After drinking and eating, the two suddenly discovered a tragic reality-these two goods have not yet been sold. Foundation building!

The Haotian Tower is a blessed place left by monks from the upper realm to future generations. The bottom floor is for low-level monks to live. The higher the level, the greater the pressure to survive. The secret realms in the fourth floor are only for monks above the Foundation Establishment period and below the Golden Core Stage to find opportunities. In other words, if you haven't reached the foundation building period, you are not eligible to enter.

Fortunately, Tong Xiaoye has reached the Dzogchen Concentration stage early, but the little boy is only in the late stage of Concentration. The Haikou that he boasted at the beginning suddenly becomes pale and powerless in the face of reality-there are three months before the secret realm will be opened. Can it really build a foundation?

As for whether Xu Zhanming can do it, anyway, Tong Xiaoye doesn't feel like building a foundation at all!
She glared at the little boy, and said unhappily: "You brat, didn't you say that you will build the foundation within a year? Why has half a year passed, and your cultivation still hasn't moved at all?"

Xu Zhanming was full of helplessness, and said foolishly: "I have only used less than three years for my Qi refining period, but it is only a small realm. I thought that one year would be enough, but my cultivation base has not moved at all!"

Tong Xiaoye pursed his lips, and also had a bitter expression on his face: "I have felt it from the Qi refining stage to the Concentration stage. Half a year ago, the Concentration stage was completed, so why don't I feel any advancement!"

"What does it feel like to build a foundation? You will naturally feel it when you swallow a foundation building pill!" Xu Zhanming looked at her in surprise, "I thought you weren't ready, since you are ready, then go directly to build a foundation." chant!"

"Swallow a foundation building pill?" Tong Xiaoye also widened his eyes, took out a foundation building pill from the storage bag, and opened his mouth to swallow it.

Xu Zhanming raised his hand and knocked out the pill directly: "Aren't you stupid? Naturally, you have to retreat to find a good place with plenty of spiritual energy when you hit the foundation building period. By the way, prepare all the pills of spirit stones. If you are so stupid, you will definitely fail."

"Oh, it turns out that foundation building is so complicated." Tong Xiaoye was puzzled, and obediently asked: "What else do you need, you little brat, tell me soon."

"Didn't your master tell you?" Xu Zhanming was helpless, and suddenly realized: "Oh, you crazy girl has no master!"

Tong Xiaoye smiled wryly.

She did not have a master to teach her, no practice experience, no ready-made spells, and no advanced guides. She relied on herself for everything. If it wasn't for the reminder from the brat, she wouldn't even know how to build a foundation.

After all, advancement was a matter of course in the past, and I felt a natural advancement, so how did I know that the establishment of the foundation had to take the initiative!

Xu Zhanming was completely speechless, threw her a jade slip, and asked, "Do you have the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Tong Xiaoye nodded and said, "Building Foundation Pills, I wonder if ten pieces are enough? If not, where can I buy them?"

"What to buy, there are a lot of geniuses today!" The little boy threw out a palm-sized white jade bottle carelessly, and Tong Xiaoye's spiritual sense swept it away, and there were ten chubby foundation building pills inside.

She had searched Han Fei's storage bag before, and there were quite a few Foundation Establishment Pills in it, and with the bottle from the kid, it should be enough.

Both of them are rich and powerful, and they never thought that ordinary outer sect disciples can beat their heads and blood for just one foundation establishment pill. Damn, if you don't succeed in building the foundation, you can hit your head to death.

Tong Xiaoye took the foundation building pill and was about to go back to build the foundation, when he suddenly received a joint communication talisman from the eight major sects.

It turned out that the eight major sects worked together to crack the barrier at the entrance of the secret realm, leaving a bunch of talented disciples with nothing to do. Some of the proud disciples with deep backgrounds or outstanding talents expressed their dissatisfaction to some extent. After discussion, the elders decided to open the Fuxin Sword Sect. Sijian Cliff on the mountain, let all the winners go there to retreat and practice.

Xu Zhanming's small face suddenly showed surprise, "Sijian Cliff is the most famous retreat holy place of Fuxin Sword Sect. There are thousands of sword holes, large and small, on the cliff. It is said that the concentration of aura at the highest level can reach ten times that of the outside world. , and there is also the sword intent left by the ancient power, and it will definitely benefit a lot from retreating in it."

Tong Xiaoye was also very moved when he heard it, and immediately followed the route in the communication talisman to find it.

At a glance, you can see the quaint and deep sword caves everywhere on the cliff. The color of the rocks becomes lighter as you get to the top of the cliff, and they are faintly divided into six levels. The sword intent, some monks looked excited, and they had already closed their eyes to comprehend it.

After a while, when all the monks had arrived, the head of the Fuxin Sword Sect said loudly: "Fellow Taoists, Sijian Cliff is the holy place of my Fuxin Sword Sect. Yujian is not allowed to fly on the cliff, everyone can climb by themselves, find a suitable sword cave to enter, there is a stone gate in the sword cave, and the jade token to open the stone gate will be distributed to everyone."

After finishing speaking, he emphasized it again: "Yujian is not allowed to fly on Sijian Cliff, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

Sijian Cliff is vast and boundless, Tong Xiaoye took the jade card and found a place with few people to climb up.

Xu Zhanming rushed over in a hurry, and said a little embarrassedly: "Xiaoye, if I can't climb anymore, please remember to give me a hand, I'm going to the highest floor!"

After getting along for a long time, he naturally knows how violent the girl in front of him is, and her spiritual power is not very deep, but in terms of physical strength, even a monk in the golden core period may not be able to keep up.

Tong Xiaoye tried to climb two steps before replying: "The highest place, my sister probably can't even climb it, how can I take you up! Let's climb to the fourth floor at most."

Xu Zhanming was a little puzzled, and he grabbed the stone pit left by his predecessors and crawled for a while, and immediately complained: "It's so windy, will it get bigger the higher you climb!"

"Well, I guess the top floor is not just the wind. I heard from other monks that there should be sword energy coming to attack us!" Tong Xiaoye nodded, then remembered something, and lowered his head and asked: "Little boy, the guard on your body Grade A should be good, right?"

"Mid-grade treasure, what's wrong?" Xu Zhanming was full of doubts, and Tong Xiaoye couldn't help but slander.

Aptitude against the sky is happiness, and you can put on the armor of a middle-grade treasure in the concentration period!
Her best armor is the Xuanyu Soft Armor from Han Fei, which is also a middle-grade treasure, but the fiery red feathers of that armor are so beautiful and conspicuous. Lin Yin's pomegranate skirt was on.

The two of them climbed for half an hour, and a set of golden armor appeared on Xu Zhanming's body. The little boy's face was made of pink and jade, and the golden armor made his eyebrows more delicate, like a boy who gave away money. , Tong Xiaoye couldn't help but smiled and knocked him on the head.

The little guy turned his head dissatisfied, and climbed up hard.

It's just that no matter how hard he tried, Tong Xiaoye was always a head taller than him, so angry that the little kid turned his head, and simply pursed his mouth.

Tong Xiaoye couldn't stop laughing, the clear and clear laughter floated in the air, and it took a long time before he stopped.

The wind gets stronger the more you go up, and your stomach hurts when you laugh any more.

As far as he could see, there were fewer and fewer monks still climbing. Tong Xiaoye couldn't help speeding up his pace, wanting to find a sword cave early to prepare the foundation.

"Ah, look at that monk!" Xu Zhanming suddenly shouted, Tong Xiaoye turned his head curiously, and saw someone summoned a flying sword to go up with the sword, but his body shook, and the flying sword was immediately sucked into the sword cave In the middle, after a scream, the whole person fell down like a kite with a broken string.

With such a high distance, he lost his flying sword, and Daoxiu's body was very fragile. . .

It really is at your own risk.

The two fell silent for a moment, and climbed up wholeheartedly.

The imaginary sword energy finally came.

You can't see it, you can't touch it, you can't dodge it, the invisible and colorless sword energy cuts on your skin, there is a kind of stabbing pain, even though your body is protected by armor, you can't dodge it on your face.

The sword energy became more and more dense, and finally, Xu Zhan screamed: "Yild girl, I can't hold it anymore!"

Tong Xiaoye looked down, only to find that the little boy's pink cheeks were bloody scratched, which looked a little bloody.

"Idiot, if you want to continue climbing, then obediently come down to my feet, and I can help you block it, or find a sword hole and get in as soon as possible!"

"I won't go under your feet!" The little boy complained, but his spiritual power was used to resist the violent mountain peak, and he also had to take care of the fewer and fewer places to stay. Sword Qi.

The pink and tender face was scratched and tattered, and the blood dripped down, blocking the line of sight, making it impossible to continue climbing up.

In desperation, despite his reluctance, he moved under Tong Xiaoye.

Tong Xiaoye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Lin Yin's pomegranate dress is worth 120 high-grade spirit stones. Not to mention the luxurious shape, she also wears bottoming pants, which are tightly wrapped around her body.

Otherwise it will be a tragedy!
Tong Xiaoye crawled while complaining, and the pomegranate skirt was big and fluttering, which indeed blocked a lot of sword energy. Xu Zhanming felt a lot more relaxed, and the wound on his face slowly began to heal.

There was a red pomegranate flower on the top of the head, and the exquisite animal skin boots were shaking fast. Xu Zhanming followed closely for an hour, and finally couldn't hold on any longer.

The sword energy is not just from bottom to top, but from all directions, Tong Xiaoye can't block much at all, he bit his lip, and said in a voice transmission depressed: "Ye girl, I'm going in, you can crawl slowly by yourself! "

As he spoke, he dodged into a nearby sword hole.

Tong Xiaoye waved his hand at him, lifted his body lightly, and his speed increased several times in an instant.

If she hadn't waited for this face-saving brat, she would probably have climbed halfway up the mountain by now.

The sword energy became stronger and stronger, and she went forward without fear, leaving red marks on her crystal face, which disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The more you climb, the more difficult it is, not only the strong wind and the invasion of sword energy, but the higher the place, the fewer monks reach it, and the places for climbing become more and more difficult to find. Sometimes you even need to dig with your own gloves. Every step is very difficult.

Jumping over a deep sword hole again, Tong Xiaoye gritted his teeth and considered whether he should stop.

But Mo Mo's storage bag was getting flatter and smaller, thinking of the few spirit stones, her small face wrinkled into a ball, enduring the pain and getting up again.

Ten times the aura of the outside world, how many spirit stones will be saved!
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the sword energy was as sharp as a top-grade treasure. Tong Xiaoye's face was finally left with bloodstains. She shook off the blood beads on her face. There was only one thought—be sure to climb to the lightest layer.

Under the cliff of Sijian Cliff, a group of old monsters are sitting on the viewing platform, drinking spiritual tea and tasting spiritual fruits, with a relaxed and comfortable look.

"Hey, your Hanyan Cave is not bad, there are actually twenty monks who have climbed above the third floor." An old man joked with a smile.

"There is no such thing as Cheng Tianzong. There are almost thirty people on the third floor. Look, they are still climbing up. I guess they can reach the fourth floor!"

The old man who spoke first smiled, and also sighed: "I didn't expect Cheng Tianzong to be so powerful. Look at that little girl, who is only at the stage of concentration, and she can climb faster than anyone else!"

"That should be physical training, but physical training can climb to the fourth floor, which is considered very good!"

What surprised them was that the fourth floor had already come to an end, and many golden core stage monks had returned home without a feather, but the little girl who cultivated body did not stop walking and continued to climb up with ease.

The roaring wind and the sword energy all over the sky didn't seem to affect her at all. Unlike other monks who climbed so hard, the little girl walked lightly, as if playing on the mountain wall.

Fei Peng, the patriarch of Chengtian Sect, sat at the foot of the mountain and watched, feeling inexplicably complicated in his heart.

Now Chengtianzong has seven monks on the fifth floor of Sijian Cliff. Except for Shui Ningrou and Yan Qinghan from Tianlinggen, the rest are all at the Golden Core stage of Dzogchen cultivation, and the rest are at the Concentration stage of physical cultivation. Little girl.

Unexpectedly, the little waste that no one wanted at the beginning has come so far. Not only has he won one after another in the small competitions of the inner sect, he has also achieved good results in the grand competitions of the sect.

Moreover, seeing her relaxed appearance, she may be able to climb to the highest level of Sijian Cliff.

If Junior Sister and the others knew that this little girl was so amazing, would they regret their original decision?

"Sect Master Fei, that little girl really has perseverance. It's a waste of her perseverance to practice with you. It's better to come to the Fuxin Sword Sect to become a sword cultivator, and she will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future. However, the rubbish qualifications of the four spiritual roots, How did your Chengtian Sect select her into the inner sect?"

The head of the Fuxin Sword Sect is called Chen Benran. He is a middle-aged man with a strong body around 40 years old. His muscles are bulging all over his body. On the contrary, he is more like a physical practitioner than Tong Xiaoye.

Xu Shi understood the importance of perseverance to a sword repairer, and he admired Tong Xiaoye's eyes very much.

Fei Peng came back to his senses, shook his head with a smile and said: "Master Chen is laughing. Although the physical training has an advantage here, it is still a by-path. How many amazing physical trainings finally got stuck in Wu Sheng's place?" One level, if you want to ascend to immortality, the only way is to concentrate on cultivating the primordial spirit!"

Chen Benran nodded slightly, and looked up again at the monk who was still climbing on Sijian Cliff.

At this moment, the number of monks who are still climbing is much less. There are very few monks who have climbed to the fifth floor of Sijian Cliff. Except for a few strong Jindan stage monks, only Qi Zhongmo of Fuxin Sword Sect is left. , and that period of concentrating on the small body repair.

Qi Zhongmo is a mid-Gold Core cultivation base, and has always been a man of the Fuxin Sword Sect. He has also practiced at Sijian Cliff before. It is not surprising that he can climb to the fifth floor, but the little girl in the concentration stage, It's really an outlier.

Even if she is a Tier [-] physical cultivator, in terms of physical ability surpassing the monks of the Golden Core Stage, but she does not rely on the spiritual power to protect her body, and she is too strong to resist the sword energy of the fifth layer of Sijian Cliff with her body alone.

Tong Xiaoye seemed to be climbing easily, but in fact he was about to be unable to hold on anymore.

Climbing the fifth floor consumed more physical strength than the previous four floors combined. The pomegranate skirt was torn to pieces by the sword energy, and it was about to be scrapped.

Isn't she working so hard to climb up for the sake of having enough spiritual energy and saving spiritual stones!The saved spirit stones are definitely not enough to buy a low-grade defensive treasure, what a loss!

Tong Xiaoye couldn't help feeling a little regretful, and when he was about to choose a sword cave to stop, he turned around and suddenly saw Qi Zhongmo who was still climbing.

The road gets narrower as you get to the top of the mountain, and the top of the mountain is only so small that you can always see other monks.

She wiped off the blood on her face with her hands, and narrowed her eyes to look at Qi Zhongmo.

Although the armor on Qi Zhongmo's body was in good condition, his exposed side face was cut to a bloody mess, and his appearance was even more miserable than his own. One foot was a little lame, obviously he had suffered serious injuries.

It was not easy for him to climb, but he never stopped, step by step extremely firm.

The person chosen to be the protagonist is not completely useless.

Tong Xiaoye was aroused a burst of anger, pursed her lips, and she jumped over the sword cave that was close at hand, and continued to climb.

The sword energy is getting stronger and stronger, hitting the body like a sharp blade, there is still a mysterious sword intent, Tong Xiaoye seems to have not noticed it, all distracting thoughts have been put out of his mind, and there is only one thought in his mind-keep climbing, never stop, All the way to the top floor!
The sword qi mixed with the strong wind and a familiar aura, flying and circling in the air, gradually getting bigger and bigger, attacking her tiny body like a tornado.

Tong Xiaoye was not surprised but delighted.

God damn it, she has been in the realm of a first-tier martial artist for more than a year, and she is finally about to advance to a second-tier martial artist!

The tornado was so powerful that Tong Xiaoye could barely grasp the cracks in the rock wall. She gritted her teeth and did not choose to stop, but climbed another step against the zhenqi storm.

Infuriating more intense.

Sure enough, physical cultivation only advances through hard work, and if you want to sit cross-legged and meditate to upgrade smoothly, that is a good thing only for Taoist cultivation!

Tong Xiaoye climbed up step by step, true energy followed her closely like a whirlwind, entered her body like flowing water, and repaired her body that was on the verge of collapse.

When she panted heavily and sat in the sword cave on the top floor to clean up the impurities from her body, the step-up was finally over.

A second-tier martial artist, whose physical strength is comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and she has the bonus of refining fire, it is estimated that she will have no problem resisting top-grade treasures.

The more Tong Xiaoye thought about it, the more excited he became, and he almost jumped up excitedly.

But soon she regained her composure, closed the stone door and crossed her legs to stabilize her mind.

There are still three months to enter Haotian Secret Realm, foundation building is the most important thing.

There is no sun and moon in retreat, and more than half of the time has passed in a flash.

Tong Xiaoye held the ninth Foundation Establishment Pill, no matter how he thought about it, he felt wrong.

She clearly remembered that two Foundation Establishment Pills were enough for Wu Gui to establish the foundation back then, how many pills she had taken herself, it is not so exaggerated to establish the foundation and return to it?
After swallowing the first Foundation Establishment Pill, she really felt the ups and downs in her dantian, and she was able to meditate and absorb spiritual energy as mentioned in the Jade Slip, but the effect was really minimal.

Could it be that my skills are special, and I have to step on the footwork as usual to advance?

Fortunately, the sword cave on the top floor was spacious enough. Tong Xiaoye ran and jumped around the cave, absorbing the spiritual energy was indeed much faster, and the dantian was indeed choppy, and the soaring spiritual power was very gratifying.

But after frantically absorbing the spiritual energy for a few days, her dantian expanded a circle, and her spiritual power doubled several times, but she didn't feel the earth-shaking changes as mentioned in the jade slip.

Why is the body expelling a lot of impurities, the whole person seems to be reborn, can truly communicate with the power of heaven and earth, can absorb spiritual power on its own while walking, and has inexhaustible power all over the body...

It's all coaxing ghosts!

In desperation, Tong Xiaoye had no choice but to swallow the foundation pills one by one. The small world in the dantian became bigger and bigger, and the spiritual power changed from a stream to a small river to a vast lake, and finally even turned into a rushing river. , but the feeling in the body is the same as before.

Is this cheating or cheating?

When Tong Xiaoye observed with her spiritual sense, she knew that although her spiritual power had increased dozens of times, her body had not undergone any qualitative changes, and she was still at the Dzogchen stage of concentration.

What a sad story!

After swallowing the No. 12 Foundation Establishment Pill, she performed the exercises again, and her spiritual power was still increasing, but the small world in her dantian remained unchanged.

It seems that the expansion of Xiaotiandi has reached its limit.

Tong Xiaoye was very helpless as he fiddled with the crystal phalanx in the sea of ​​spiritual power with his spiritual sense.

Could it be that his physique is too strong, and his dantian Xiaotiandi has to expand to match his physical body, so that he can advance smoothly?
But what about the Haotian Tower Secret Realm ten days later?
After consolidating his cultivation for a while, until the last moment, Tong Xiaoye left the sword cave dejectedly.

Although it is very difficult to climb, it is very easy to leave. Just use the jade card to brush the prohibition at the door, and you can be easily transported out of Sijian Cliff.

At the bottom of Sijian Cliff, Tong Xiaoye met Xu Zhanming who was also downcast.

"Xiao Ming, you can't be so weak, can't you, you have completed the Concentration period and haven't succeeded in building the foundation yet?" Tong Xiaoye looked at the little boy in surprise, and couldn't help but raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

"Well, the master said that I advanced too fast and my foundation was not solid. I didn't believe it before. I lost to the heart demon when I built the foundation." Xu Zhanming looked slumped, looked up at Tong Xiaoye, and finally there was a gleam of joy on his small face Meaning: "Hey, why didn't you succeed in building the foundation?"

The look of surprise, as if meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

Tong Xiaoye knocked down his palm angrily, pouted and said: "The character is not good, I took a bunch of pills for nothing, and I don't feel anything at all!"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something, and asked belatedly, "Will there be demons when building the foundation?"

Xu Zhanming's eyes widened in surprise: "Isn't it you? You haven't even sensed the inner demon after eating the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Tong Xiaoye shook his head in frustration, and the doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper.

The Nine Turns Rongyuan Kungfu that I practiced is too weird, why is everything different from others?

Three days later, the long-awaited secret realm of Haotian Tower finally slowly opened.

 Thank you Bi Tiffany for the peace charm, what a da~ I'm sorry for the late update, the two are more in one~
