Immortal Path Evergreen
Chapter 15 Chalcedony Rice Matures
The sun just jumped out of the horizon, as if showing a smile.
Zhang Zhixuan sat on the futon and had already practiced the Qi Condensation Technique three times.
There was not enough spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain. Except after taking the elixir, Zhang Zhixuan usually did not sit in meditation to refine the spiritual energy.
However, he would practice the Qi Condensation Technique three times every morning.
This spell was very magical. It could not increase the mana, nor did it have any magical powers. It only cultivated a breath of innate purple qi to warm the dantian.
Zhang Zhixuan had been practicing Taoism for ten years and had a wide range of knowledge, but he had never seen a spell with the same principle as the Qi Condensation Technique.
According to his own understanding, if he practiced this spell frequently and strengthened the innate purple qi in the dantian, when it was time to build the foundation, he could use this innate purple qi to replace most of the effects of the foundation-building pill.
This innate purple qi was peaceful and warm, just right to warm the meridians and dantian when building the foundation.
The most dangerous thing when building the foundation is the loss of control of mana.
When building the foundation, in order to break through the barrier and turn the true essence into liquid, the mana runs faster and faster. This violent mana will undoubtedly impact the meridians and dantian of the cultivator.
In addition to the effect of removing impurities from the body, the most important effect of the foundation-building pill is to delay the runaway mana and warm and repair the meridians and dantian of the cultivator.
Even if the foundation fails, life can be saved.
Therefore, building the foundation without the foundation-building pill will be extremely dangerous. According to the estimation of the ancient cultivators, only one out of thirty cultivators who build the foundation can survive by chance.
So, the later cultivators created the spiritual medicine of the foundation-building pill.
Although the grade of this spiritual pill is only the third-grade upper grade, its price exceeds that of most fourth-grade spiritual pills.
Its main medicine requires a jade marrow gold fungus that is more than a thousand years old, and five five-hundred-year-old flame fruits, Poria cocos, Qingling flower, white jade ginseng, and snow lotus as auxiliary medicines.
In addition, twenty spiritual medicines of about a hundred years old and a spiritual water of more than fourth grade are required for refining.
Jadeite Golden Ganoderma over a thousand years old is at least a fourth-grade medium-quality spiritual herb, and the price is more than five thousand spiritual stones.
Five five-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs are also of a grade higher than the fourth grade, and the price of each spiritual herb is more than two thousand.
In addition, there is fourth-grade spiritual water and twenty third-grade spiritual herbs over a hundred years old.
To refine a furnace of foundation-building pills, the price of spiritual herbs is at least about 30,000 low-grade spiritual stones. Not only that, the refining of foundation-building pills is also very difficult, and the difficulty is also higher than most fourth-grade spiritual pills.
Only high-level alchemy masters above the fourth grade can refine foundation-building pills.
It is precisely because of the difficulty of refining foundation-building pills that even a large sect like Qingxuan Sect can only refine one or two furnaces of foundation-building pills every ten years, and the number of successful pills is as few as five or six, and no more than twelve or thirteen.
This is the case for Qingxuan Sect, not to mention other cultivation families and casual cultivators.
Most foundation-building cultivators of cultivation families have to spend a huge price and have enough connections in Qingxuan Sect to exchange for one or two foundation-building pills.
As for the casual cultivators who have a harder time surviving, they basically won’t be able to smell the scent of foundation-building pills in their entire lives.
They can only risk building a foundation before the age of 60, risking the death of an average of 30 ninth-level Qi-training cultivators for only one to succeed in building a foundation by chance, in order to compete for this bloody chance.
“The Qi-increasing technique is so magical. If you persist in practicing hard for more than ten years, when you reach the time of building a foundation, you can replace a considerable part of the effects of foundation-building pills.
As long as you take some pills that refine the essence and remove impurities, the chance of building a foundation may not be lower than that of cultivators who take foundation-building pills.
Unfortunately, my cultivation is still very low, and my family does not have much power.
Otherwise, once this spell is made public, it will be like a child holding gold in a busy city.” Looking at the rising sun, Zhang Zhixuan exhaled the last trace of purple air and thought.
Zhang Zhixuan finished his meditation and glanced at Xiao Qingchan in the room next door.
Xiao Qingchan is still young, at the age of being sleepy, and is still sleeping in.
The breeze blew gently, and the green rice straw swayed gently. The rice straw had already sprouted, and the white jade-colored rice the size of broad beans had already been full.
"Lazy girl, get up quickly and eat. The chalcedony rice is ripe today. Get up quickly after eating to pick the rice."
The chalcedony rice is a spiritual grass that is different from ordinary grains. The grains of this rice are not only large but also full. There are only three or five grains of chalcedony rice on each straw.
Because the stems of spiritual rice are very tough, they can only be cut with magic tools, and the harvesting speed is very slow.
Once the spiritual rice is ripe, it must be picked within three to five days.
Otherwise, these rice grains will fall off. Once the chalcedony rice enters the soil, it will sprout quickly and become inedible.
Therefore, when the chalcedony rice is ripe, the rice grains need to be picked one by one, just like picking fruits, which is much slower than cutting rice.
Qingchan kicked the quilt irritably, glanced at Zhang Zhixuan impatiently, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and reluctantly got up to eat.
Since the little girl Qingchan started practicing, the chalcedony rice allocated by Zhang Zhixuan has been a little insufficient.
The little girl has a good spiritual root, and she can refine her essence and open up her meridians very quickly, so she usually eats more.
Because chalcedony rice is sweet and delicious, and can also speed up the practice of innate cultivators, this greedy little girl can no longer eat ordinary rice.
Even if she is hungry every day, she will wait for the chalcedony rice to be served before she starts eating.
The rice for one person is naturally not enough for two people.
Every time it is close to the end of the month, the allocated chalcedony rice will be eaten up.
In the past two hundred years, the Zhang family has been a gradually declining family of immortal cultivators, and the resources provided to the cultivators are not very many.
Fortunately, Zhang Zhixuan’s cultivation speed is faster, and his spiritual root aptitude is better, so the family will treat him a little better.
Even so, the resources provided by the family will not be enough to support Qingchan’s cultivation in the future.
If Zhang Zhixuan wants to continue his cultivation normally, he needs to develop another source of income.
Qingchan got up reluctantly, and the two of them quickly ate a small bowl of spiritual rice, then packed up their things and started picking spiritual rice.
Qingchan is already at the fourth level of innate, and her arms have hundreds of pounds of strength. Although she is small, she is a little faster than Zhang Zhixuan in picking spiritual rice.
