I traveled through time and space, and I exchanged my life for krypton

When Wei Zhong saw the spiritual energy cyclone rising, he knew that Xie Linghua had officially started to build her foundation.

A huge amount of spiritual energy was infused into the practice room. Xie Linghua endured the impact of this spiritual energy and uttered a painful groan...

The spiritual energy cyclone lasted for several days, and suddenly collapsed in an instant, half dispersing.

The people on the island couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw this.

Wei Zhong frowned and looked up at the sky: 'Is this a failure? '

'Although I prepared a top-grade foundation-building pill for it and used many spiritual objects to consolidate its foundation, it still failed to build its foundation in the end. '

Speaking of it, Xie Linghua's qualifications are not much better than his own, with three spiritual roots, and all of them are low-grade.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons for the other party's failure, and the other is the heart of Taoism.

After all, she has practiced under the protection of Wei Zhong for most of her life, and facing the foundation-building level alone lacks some of the bloodiness and decisiveness that a cultivator should have.

Waving his sleeves and pushing open the door of the training room, Wei Zhong felt a little distressed when he saw Xie Linghua collapsed on the ground with blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.

He helped her up and stuffed a pill into her mouth.

"Master..."

Seeing the guilt in her eyes, Wei Zhong shook his head to indicate that he didn't need to say more.

"It's just a failure. Take good care of yourself. There will be opportunities in the future."

The latter nodded, but no longer dared to look into Wei Zhong's eyes. Knowing that the other party was still immersed in the guilt after the failure of building the foundation.

Helping the other party to the bedroom to rest, Wei Zhong took out many healing items.

"Ling'er, have a good rest," Wei Zhong lifted her hair and stroked her cheek, saying, "You don't have to worry about the island's affairs, just focus on taking care of your body."

"If you are bored, you can take Jiucai out to relax. Don't worry too much about the foundation building, it's just a small hurdle on the way to practice.

Even Li Haowen, who had a mid-level spiritual root, failed once. With the support of the master, you still have many opportunities, Ling'er."

Despite Wei Zhong's efforts to persuade her, Xie Linghua still looked gloomy.

Seeing this, Wei Zhong had no choice but to flick her forehead with his fingertips and said, "Don't think too much."

After settling Xie Linghua, Wei Zhong called the three people in charge of miscellaneous affairs on the island and handed over all the tasks on the island to them.

So that Xie Linghua no longer had to worry about the miscellaneous affairs of the Spirit Island.

The three had already worked on Yunxia Island for many years, and they could ensure the smooth operation of the Spirit Island even without Xie Linghua.

Then Wei Zhong contacted Ling Ziwei. The latter also felt a little regretful after learning that Xie Linghua had failed to build her foundation.

"Why not let sister Ling'er come with me to relax? If she continues to practice so hard, it will probably be difficult to achieve results in building her foundation next time."

The other party took the initiative to propose, and Wei Zhong naturally had no reason to refuse, so he immediately agreed.

He also promised to use spirit stones as a reward, but Ling Ziwei sternly refused.

She said that Xie Linghua was her sister, and helping her was her duty, and there was no reason for her to accept Wei Zhong's reward.

The next day, Ling Ziwei rushed to Yunxia Island, and after explaining the whole story to Xie Linghua, a trace of reluctance appeared in her eyes.

Wei Zhong stepped forward and pinched the other's cheek:

"Silly girl, don't worry, go with your sister Ling to relax.

Your master is also a foundation-building cultivator after all, and I won't die without you.

All the affairs on Lingdao are handed over to Tang Yanhong and the other two. You have been the chief steward for so many years, and you are also clear about their abilities..."

After some consolation, Xie Linghua finally nodded.

When leaving, Wei Zhong stuffed Jiucai into her hands.

Watching the two girls leave, Wei Zhong murmured:

"With this bird following closely, and Ling Ziwei, who is in the late stage of foundation building, leading the way, there should be no problem with safety."

Wei Zhong closed his eyes and could still sense the location of the true seal in Jiucai's body.

Until the other party left a hundred miles, Wei Zhong could only barely sense the direction.

As a spirit beast contracted by Wei Zhong with the "True Seal Treasure Technique", Jiucai has an extraordinary connection with Wei Zhong.

Not only can he determine her position through the true seal, but also when she is in danger, Wei Zhong can sense it and rescue her in time.

As the two women left, Wei Zhong sighed and returned to the cave to practice.

Wei Zhong didn't have much to do about Xie Linghua's foundation building. All he could do was to fully support her in terms of resources.

Since then, Yunxia Island has lost a general manager Xie who is in charge of the overall situation for a few years. Hu Zongfu, Zou Ruiyuan, and Tang Yanhong, three people under Wei Zhong, are in charge of Lingdao affairs.

A year later, Wei Zhong left his practice, not because Xie Linghua returned.

But because two unexpected guests arrived.

The person was still wearing a red Luo skirt, and was followed by a long-legged female cultivator.

It was Shan Qin and Miao Lishan.

"Miss Shan, Senior Miao, long time no see," Wei Zhong clenched his fist and saluted, inviting the two to sit in the pavilion on the cliff.

"Now I don't know whether to call you Chu Daoyou or Wei Daoyou?" Shan Qin asked after sitting down.

Wei Zhong replied: "Please forgive me, Miss Shan. I had to hide my identity because I got into trouble with a big enemy in the early years. I changed my name back to my original name when I came to Luohe Mansion."

"Haha, because you changed your name, I had to look for you carefully," Shan Qin smiled, obviously just teasing rather than blaming.

"If I hadn't learned from Elder Yan that you stayed in Luohe Mansion, and compared it with the information of the casual cultivators renting the Spirit Island at that time, I really couldn't find you.

What surprised me even more was that you, Wei, not only had great accomplishments in spirit wine, but also became a second-level alchemist in just a few decades. I really looked at you with new eyes."

Speaking of this, Shan Qin's eyes showed a strange color, as if he regarded Wei Zhong as some kind of rare treasure.

"Haha, Miss Chengdan praised me. There are similarities between wine making and alchemy, and I am willing to smash spiritual stones.

Most of the spiritual stones divided from the spiritual wine over the years have been invested in it, and only then can I make rapid progress in alchemy. "

"Oh, my fellow Taoist has made rapid progress on the path of alchemy. I wonder if he has made any breakthroughs in wine-making skills in the past few years?

You must know that Taoist friend's second-level Qingluo Zui has made a big splash in Yunzhou City. It rivals the Wang family's body refining pill and has become the number one spiritual object needed by foundation-building body refining monks.

If Taoist friend reveals his identity, he doesn't know how many Nascent Soul forces he will be attracted to in Yunzhou City. "

Wei Zhong probably knew that what the other party said was true, and the spiritual stone he received was not a small amount.

Moreover, the accumulation speed of contribution points is also terrifying. The number of monks who have obtained nearly 7,000 contribution points in more than 20 years can be said to be very few in the history of Yunji Chamber of Commerce.

However, he was indifferent to what the other party said about revealing his identity. He couldn't even hide from those Nascent Soul forces, so how could he move forward.

Wei Zhong shook his head with regret:

"It's a pity that in order to learn alchemy in the next few years, I have somewhat neglected the wine-making skills. I have not broken through to the third level, but there is a spirit wine that I would like to invite you two to taste."

Wei Zhong took out Luoyuehong and poured a cup for each of them.

Looking at the red wine in the glass, the two of them were a little curious.

When they drank it, their eyes lit up.

"This, this is actually a thing that enhances spiritual consciousness?" Shan Qin could hardly control her expression of surprise and asked Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong nodded: "Exactly, this wine is called Luoyuehong. I will classify this wine into the second level, which is most suitable for Foundation Establishment monks to drink."

"Fellow Daoist Wei has looked down upon this spiritual wine. Although this spiritual wine is at the second level, it still has an effect on the pill-forming monks," Shan Qin sighed.

Miaoli Shan beside him also nodded: "To be precise, it has some effect on the monks in the early stage of pill formation, but it has little effect on the monks in the middle stage of pill formation."

"oh?"

Wei Zhong recalled the golden eyebrow in his cave, which was an early third-order spiritual beast. It seems that he likes to drink this wine not only because he is greedy for fine wine, but also because this spiritual wine has a partial beneficial effect on him.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, are you willing to entrust this wine recipe to my Yunji Chamber of Commerce?" Shan Qin seemed to have discovered a business opportunity again.

Wei Zhong was a little confused: "Ms. Shan is disappointed. This thing was not invented, but was deduced from the residue of some spiritual wine obtained from a secret realm.

Moreover, it is suspected to be brewed by monsters, which refutes the brewing logic of monks like us.

Although the wine recipe is deduced below, the chance of making wine based on this is extremely low, and the wine recipe may not have much reference value. "

While Wei Zhong was talking, he took out a jade slip, which recorded the wine recipes needed to brew the wine, as well as Wei Zhong's brewing process and part of his experience.

Shan Qin took it hesitantly, looked at the image on the jade slip and frowned.

Although Shan Qin is not a winemaker, he has learned a lot about the winemaking process under the influence of Wei Zhong.

The records in this jade slip are indeed very different from the conventional wine making methods.

Then he handed it to Miaoli Shan beside him: "As a winemaker, Aunt Miao, why don't you take a look?"

After taking it, the latter looked at it and frowned.

“Girl Shan, we may not be able to make this wine.

Although it is not difficult for the winemakers in the association to master this wine recipe, the chance of success is probably very low.

The income is far less than the consumption, and it is a loss-making business. "

Wei Zhong was a little surprised when he saw the key to Miaoli Shan at a glance.

After Jin Mei taught himself step by step for several years, Wei Zhong could only stabilize the success rate of brewing Luoyuehong at 30%.

However, Jin Mei brewed this wine with his own hands, with a 60% success rate, which was much better than Wei Zhong.

Therefore, Jin Mei is responsible for brewing this wine most of the time, and Wei Zhong only brews it occasionally to brush up his proficiency.

If a brewer took the jade slip provided by Wei Zhong to learn brewing, Wei Zhong's own guess is that the success rate would be only 10% at best.

This is not because Wei Zhong is hiding something secret, but because Wei Zhong's level is only so high in the first place, and he has only a partial understanding of many techniques in the process. He only knows what is happening but does not know why. The apprentices he taught were naturally far worse than Wei Zhong.

Shan Qin was a little unwilling to hear what Miaolishan said, turned to look at Wei Zhong and said:

"Can Fellow Daoist Wei provide some finished spiritual wine?"

Wei Zhong had no reason to refuse and took out five altars of Luoyuehong.

"Thank you Daoist Fellow Wei. I bought these jars of spirit wine."

Wei Zhong wanted to refuse, but when he saw the items he put down, he immediately took back his polite words.

‘There are still more than twenty Qianling Water Stones. It's worth at least more than 20,000 spirit stones, the kind that have a price but no market. ’

Shan Qin was so generous that Wei Zhongling was immediately on the spot.

Seeing Wei Zhong's stunned look, Shan Qin smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Wei, accept it with confidence. This is only the price of five jars of spiritual wine. If we can successfully reproduce this Luoyuehong, we will still follow the same rules as Daoist Friend Qingluo Zui."

Only then did Wei Zhong take the Thousand Spirit Water Stones into his hands. With his previous accumulation, the number of Thousand Spirit Water Stones in his hands finally exceeded 400, and he could officially start the casting of Qianjun Heavy Water Spirit Body.

"Fellow Daoist Wei has collected Thousand Spirit Water Stones over the years, but are you ready to cast the Thousand Spirit Heavy Water Spirit Body?"

Wei Zhong nodded: "That's true."

Shan Qin clenched her fists: "Then I congratulate you in advance on your success."

"Thank you, Miss Shan."

"Now you are a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, right? With this kind of spirit body, you have a better chance of breaking through to the Jindan stage."

Wei Zhong nodded: "I feel that my cultivation speed is too slow, so I spent all my family's wealth to obtain this kind of spirit body."

Seemingly seeing that Wei Zhong's cultivation is not easy, Miao Lishan sighed:

"Unfortunately, the effect of the thousand-pound heavy water spirit body is almost to the Jindan stage. If you want to go further to condense the infant, you need to explore the higher ten thousand-pound heavy water spirit body."

Wei Zhong smiled bitterly when he heard this: "How could I not know, but my strength is limited, so I can only look for the thousand-spirit water stone first and give priority to the matter of Jindan.

As for the ten thousand-spirit water stone, I can collect it with my means I can't collect them. Can you two seniors give me some pointers? "

The two girls looked at each other, and Miaoli Shan said:

"Do you know the meaning of the ten thousand year spiritual objects?"

Wei Zhong thought for a while and said: "It seems to correspond to the Nascent Soul level."

Miaoli Shan was a little surprised:

"You have some knowledge.

One hundred years to build the foundation, one thousand years to form the elixir, ten thousand years to form the Nascent Soul, these are the realms corresponding to the spiritual materials of each year.

You can collect so many thousand spirit water stones when you build the foundation, which can be called a strong financial strength.

But this financial strength is useless for the ten thousand year level spiritual objects.

Even the contribution points used by the Chamber of Commerce are extremely difficult to exchange for the existence of ten thousand year spiritual objects. "

Wei Zhong nodded, and he did not see the ten thousand year spiritual objects in the exchange list.

"The reason for this is that ten thousand year spiritual objects are too rare. Except for some spiritual medicines that can be ripened, most other spiritual objects cannot be cultivated by cultivators over a long period of time. Instead, they have to rely on exploring various secret realms and looking for opportunities everywhere. Among these many cultivators, only a handful of them have obtained ten thousand year spiritual objects. Once obtained, except for some cultivators who have not yet condensed their infants, no one will be willing to exchange them for low-level resources. The value of such ten thousand year resources cannot even be measured by spiritual stones, and they are often bartered between Yuanying cultivators. Even if there is an inequality between spiritual objects, the difference is made up with high-grade spiritual stones." Wei Zhong was stunned. He had practiced for so many years, but he only had low-grade and medium-grade spiritual stones in his hands, and he had never seen high-grade spiritual stones. 'According to Miaoli Shan, ten thousand year spiritual objects are so precious, doesn't it mean that I have no hope of obtaining them? ’

Sure enough, Miaoli Shan immediately took over and explained:

“With your current cultivation, it is basically hopeless to obtain a ten thousand year spiritual object, even if you take out tens of thousands of contribution points, the possibility is not great.

Unless you can take out something useful for Yuanying cultivators, such as fourth-level spiritual pills, fourth-level spiritual wine, etc., there is a slight possibility of exchange.”

Wei Zhong was silent.

Seeing this, Shan Qin said: “Daoyou don’t have to be so disappointed. In this cultivation world, how many people can reach the level of Daoyou, and how many people can form a pill.

With the financial resources of Daoyou Wei, you can exchange for a few more dust-reducing pills and various spiritual objects for forming a pill. With the blessing of the thousand-pound water spirit body, there is still a great hope of forming a pill.

By then, the life span will be more than five or six hundred years, which is a life span that ordinary people can hardly reach. You might as well stop and study your skills. Maybe you can find opportunities again from practicing hundreds of arts.”

“Thank you Miss Shan for your consolation.”

Seeing Wei Zhong bowed in return, Shan Qin knew that he had not given up.

‘Who in this world doesn’t want to cultivate to become a Nascent Soul and become a god, but human power is limited and everyone has their own destiny.’

After the two women had a long talk with Wei Zhong, they left with the Falling Moon Red Spirit Wine.

Wei Zhong returned to the cave with sorrow.

‘My aptitude is not good. Do I have to be a ten thousand year old Dan?’

Wei Zhong shook his head, drove away this kind of boredom from his heart, took out more than 400 Thousand Spirit Water Stones he had accumulated, and planned to start casting a thousand-pound heavy water spirit body.

‘I still need to take care of the road ahead. It’s a bit too ambitious to consider the Nascent Soul before the Dan is formed.’

Wei Zhong took out the big cauldron and processed the Thousand Spirit Water Stones according to the last method. A few days later, a cauldron of blue liquid appeared in the cauldron.

Wei Zhong stretched out his hands and placed them in the spirit liquid, and instantly felt a sharp pain.

‘The difficulty of casting this thousand-pound heavy water spirit body has risen to a level higher than that of a hundred-pound. I don’t know how others have managed to cast a spirit body using this method. ’

Wei Zhong frowned and practiced the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art", absorbing the spiritual liquid into his body as if it were spiritual energy.

Three months later, Wei Zhong sat cross-legged beside the cauldron, and the technique was practiced, driving the nearby spiritual energy to be absorbed into Wei Zhong's body.

Wei Zhong couldn't help but smile with joy as he carefully felt the changes brought about by the transformation of his spiritual body.

'As expected of a spiritual body that is comparable to the middle-grade water spiritual root, my cultivation speed has increased again at this moment.

If I don't use various cultivation resources, I can increase my cultivation speed several times.

But at the moment when the cultivation resources are sufficient, the improvement is only 40%. ’

However, Wei Zhong is very satisfied with this.

It took Wei Zhong eight years to build the foundation from the seventh to the eighth level before, but now it has been shortened to six years.

Such a speed of improvement will definitely shock the cultivators of the same level.

Of course, the foundation of all this is not only the support of the thousand-pound water spiritual body, but also inseparable from Wei Zhong's master-level "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" and the cultivation resources piled up by the spiritual stones.

The improvement of the spiritual body only improves one's own foundation and the upper limit of cultivation. The supply of cultivation resources is still indispensable during the cultivation process.

Put away the big cauldron, there is still a small portion of spiritual liquid left in the cauldron. According to Wei Zhong's estimation, the refining of the thousand-pound heavy water spirit body this time consumed about 360 thousand spirit water stones.

It did not exceed the highest record used by the predecessors. It seems that 360 is the upper limit of this kind of spirit body.

Now that the spirit body has been improved, it is time to consider the matter of cultivation.

'At present, it will probably take me only more than 20 years to reach the peak of the ninth level of foundation building, and I can prepare to form a pill.

But other preparations have not been made. For example, I have not yet been sure that I can refine the dust-reducing pill, and the seven-color golden bamboo umbrella, a means to deal with thunder tribulation, has not yet begun to be refined.

As Miaoli Shan said, with my current means, I probably have no chance to find the ten thousand-year-old golden thunder bamboo and heavenly silk, so I can only think of ways to try to find the thousand-year-old golden thunder bamboo and the second-rate thousand-year-old spiritual silk.

At worst, I can refine a few more, and replace one when the thunder tribulation breaks it.

If I encounter other lightning protection methods, I also need to obtain them together, and I can't just rely on this kind of magic weapon. ’

Wei Zhong remembered the last ninth heavenly thunder tribulation when Ling Hua formed his elixir. That heavenly thunder was definitely not something that could be dealt with by ordinary means.

‘I wonder if the thunder tribulation when I formed my elixir would be that terrifying. ’

After the spiritual body was successfully upgraded, Wei Zhong no longer needed the Thousand Spiritual Water Stone. So he went to Yuelan City to find Xu Xuan to end this collection mission.

He also asked the other party to help publish a reward for finding the Golden Thunder Bamboo and Spirit Silk.

Wei Zhong did not mark the price of the two for this mission, but waited for the seller who owned them to quote.

This kind of rare spiritual material will probably not produce results for decades, and Wei Zhong will not need to provide contribution points in a short period of time. It is just right to accumulate one or two contribution points during this period.

After handling the relevant matters, Wei Zhong returned to Yunxia Island and began to retreat again.

One day three years later, Ling Ziwei brought Xie Linghua back.

When Xie Linghua returned, she was no longer as weak as when she stayed with Wei Zhong, but she was heroic in her gestures.

Then the other party retreated again in order to break through the foundation.

Wei Zhong asked Ling Ziwei with some curiosity: "Where did Fairy Ling take Linghua? How could there be such a big change?"

The latter smiled and said: "It's just two years of training in the cultivation world, and two years of training in the mortal world.

Daoyou will travel in the mortal world in the future, maybe you can hear the name of the blue-clothed female knight."

Wei Zhong was stunned. He didn't expect that these two cultivators would rely on their cultivation to travel in the mortal world.

However, this way of training is indeed much safer, and the effect may be very good.

Looking at the spiritual energy cyclone that condensed in the air again, Wei Zhong suddenly felt that Xie Linghua would definitely succeed in building a foundation this time.

Sure enough, within a hundred days, the spiritual energy cyclone dissipated, and Xie Linghua came out of retreat, and she had already built a foundation.

"Master, I have built a foundation."

"Okay, okay, come and have a banquet."

The news that Yunxia Island has one more foundation-building person spread quickly, and Qingze and Xuxuan, who are familiar with Wei Zhong, all visited and presented gifts to congratulate.

Not only that, many foundation-building cultivators who were unfamiliar to Wei Zhong also came to congratulate him, hoping to establish a relationship with Wei Zhong, a second-level alchemist.

The Qi-refining families near Yunxia Island also came to offer various spiritual objects.

This banquet lasted for a full month, with table after table of buffets, which was much more grand than when Wei Zhong first built his foundation.

‘It seems that when I was building my foundation, I only drank a few cups with Ning Cankun. Now I am still here, but he has been gone for many years. ’

Wei Zhong felt that things had changed and sighed deeply.

“Master, what’s wrong?” Xie Linghua came over when she saw Wei Zhong sighing.

Wei Zhong shook his head: “It’s okay, I just remembered some past events. When I was building my foundation, I was also timid and drank a few cups with fellow Daoist Ning.”

Hearing the melancholy in Wei Zhong’s words, Xie Linghua held Wei Zhong’s right hand.

“Master, do you want to hold a birthday banquet?”

“Haha, what birthday banquet?” Wei Zhong smiled and shook his head.

"If we're going to hold it, let's hold the Dan-Jie Ceremony!"
