Rebirth of the Li Family

Eight years later.

Before dawn, Li Qiuben came out of the cave. It was July and the weather was getting cooler.

After leaving the cave, Li Qiuben took a deep breath and felt very comfortable. Then, he went to the third-level lower-grade spiritual field to ripen the spiritual medicine Jiuquzhi.

It has been almost thirty years since the planting of the third-level lower-grade Jiuquzhi.

If he had always been in the early stage of foundation building, Jiuquzhi would take several days to ripen and harvest, but he had cultivated to the middle stage of foundation building a month ago, and the corresponding skills had also been cultivated to the second level, which further strengthened the ripening of spiritual medicine.

This not only allows him to ripen more spiritual medicines, but also shortens the time for spiritual medicines to be ripened.

After the normal foundation building, the cultivators who practice the skills that can ripen spiritual medicines basically stay in the early stage of foundation building in this life. Because of the side effects of ripening spiritual medicines, it is difficult for them to cultivate to the peak of the early stage of foundation building.

These more special skills are basically created by cultivators with special physiques. If you want to be immune to side effects, you must have a corresponding special physique.

Many of the forces at the Jindan level have cultivators who practice the method of ripening spiritual medicines. If they are from a Jindan cultivation family, then these cultivators are sacrificed for the family. Generally, such cultivation talents are inferior. For example, in a Jindan cultivation family, if a cultivator with three spiritual roots and wood spiritual roots successfully builds his foundation, then he will basically sacrifice for the family and stay in the early stage of foundation building forever.

Practicing such a method not only has great side effects, but also the number and efficiency of ripening spiritual medicines are far inferior to cultivators with special physiques.

On the third-level lower-grade spiritual field, Li Qiuben completed the final ripening of Jiuquzhi.

"It can be harvested."

Li Qiuben happily dug Jiuquzhi out of the third-level lower-grade spiritual field. This was his first time to collect third-level lower-grade spiritual medicines, which was also a memorable event.

After harvesting five Jiuquzhi, he planted the next Jiuquzhi again. Compared with these five Jiuquzhi, the other Jiuquzhi grown on the third-level lower-grade spiritual field were almost thirty years old. After that, he had to ripen the Jiuquzhi, and the Jiuquzhi he had just planted would have to wait for a round before he could start ripening.

At noon.

Li Qiuben arrived at the clan leader's cave.

After harvesting the Jiuquzhi, he would give it to his thirteenth great grandfather, asking him to refine the third-level elixir.

"Thirteenth great grandfather, this is the Jiuquzhi harvested today." Li Qiuben bowed when he saw Li Qianqing, and then handed the Jiuquzhi to Li Qianqing.

"Well, very good."

Li Qianqing nodded. The auxiliary spiritual medicines for refining the third-level inferior Jiuqu elixir had been collected a long time ago, and now only the main spiritual medicine Jiuquzhi was missing. It is relatively easy for the Jindan Xiuxian family to collect spiritual medicines below the third level. In these years, the Li family has collected a lot of spiritual medicines that they want to collect.

"Qiuben, you are already in the middle stage of foundation building. Now that you have planted Jiuquzhi, how long is the best time to ripen it?"

The so-called best time is how to ripen Jiuquzhi with the means of ripening spiritual medicine within the normal growth cycle of Jiuquzhi, so that the most Jiuquzhi can be obtained after a normal growth cycle of Jiuquzhi ends. Ripening a Jiuquzhi with all your strength can obtain a Jiuquzhi in the fastest time, but from a long-term perspective, this is undoubtedly the most disadvantageous.

"Now... the best time to ripen Jiuquzhi is about 27 years." Li Qiuben quickly gave the answer.

"Next, you can ripen three Jiuquzhi. The ripening of the third-level lower-grade Xuanlinghua and the third-level middle-grade Yulingxiao will also begin. Ripen two of these two spiritual medicines first."

According to his cultivation plan, it will take about 70 to 80 years from the initial stage of entering the Jindan stage to the middle stage of the Jindan stage. Now he can also prepare the elixir used for the middle stage of the Jindan stage.

The third-stage middle-stage Yu Lingxiao is the main spiritual medicine of the third-stage middle-grade Yu Xiao Dan, and Xuan Linghua is the only third-stage auxiliary spiritual medicine for refining Yu Xiao Dan.

"Okay, thirteenth great-grandfather." Li Qiuben wrote down what Li Qianqing said.

Regarding the cultivation and ripening of the third-stage spiritual medicine, Li Qianqing is still arranging it for him.

It is worth mentioning that after practicing to the middle stage of foundation building, Li Qiuben can manage more second-stage spiritual fields. For the Li family, Li Qiuben's breakthrough means that the family spiritual fields can produce more spiritual medicine resources every year.

Half an hour later, Li Qiuben left the clan leader's cave and returned to his own cave.

After taking care of the spiritual medicine and ripening the spiritual medicine, Li Qiuben spent a large part of the remaining time on cultivation. This is why he, who has practiced for more than 30 years, can enter the middle stage of foundation building from the early stage of foundation building.

Among the family's foundation-building cultivators, he gets the most resources every year on average. The reason is naturally that he can ripen spiritual medicines. He has no shortage of family contribution points, so he also has no shortage of cultivation resources. If his thirteenth great-grandfather hadn't told him to make a cultivation plan based on his actual situation, if he had been practicing hard, he would have entered the middle stage of foundation-building a few years faster.

After Li Qiuben left, the sign outside Li Qianqing's cave changed to a state of retreat.

This time his retreat will be a little longer, nearly two months.

He refines five portions of spiritual medicine for refining the Nine-Bend Spirit Pill in one furnace. Unless he has a first-grade lower-grade magic weapon-level alchemy furnace, he will never refine two portions in one furnace for the Nine-Bend Spirit Pill.

At present, he still uses a high-grade spiritual weapon-level alchemy furnace to refine pills.

It is difficult to obtain magic weapons in the Three Small Countries, let alone magic weapons such as alchemy furnaces. It is now known that the alchemy furnace magic weapons in the Three Small Countries are in the hands of alchemists at the Jindan level. Although Li Qianqing is now also a Jindan alchemist, he is only a new one.

In addition to him, the alchemists at the Jindan level in the Three Small Countries have been in Jindan for more than a hundred years.

Li Qianqing thinks that compared to collecting the alchemy furnace magic weapon here, it is more likely to wait for Qianyin to have the ability to refine normal magic weapons and help him refine the alchemy furnace of the first-level lower-grade magic weapon.

Li Qianyin, who has entered the late stage of foundation building, has the ability to refine top-grade spiritual tools. It is relatively easy for her to refine this level of top-grade spiritual tools now. After a few years of accumulation, Li Qianyin should start to refine magic weapons.

For cultivators in the late stage of foundation building, refining magic weapons is challenging. And the refiners who can cultivate to the late stage of foundation building are relatively excellent in both cultivation talent and refiner talent. If the latter has poor talent, they will basically not take this path.

All the refiners in the late stage of foundation building, as time goes by, their refinement proficiency continues to increase, they will basically refine the first-class magic weapon, many of which are refined by the refiners in the late stage of foundation building.

The difficulty of refining ordinary magic weapons and natal magic weapons is very different. The former must be refined according to the characteristics of the materials to refine the corresponding magic weapon, which must be refined by the refiner, while the latter can basically be successfully refined once as long as it is refined according to the steps of the practice method, and the spiritual power and the control of the pill fire are not too bad.

The refining of natal magic weapons rarely fails. Even if it fails, it will only fail once at most. The second time will definitely succeed. It is basically not very outrageous to be able to practice and break through to the stage of forming pills.

Fifty-four days later.

Li Qianqing finished refining five furnaces of nine-curve elixir. Among the total of thirty pills, two were waste pills.

Ten of the twenty-eight nine-curve elixir were of good quality. For Li Qianqing, he was quite satisfied with this result.

"Another seven or eight will be enough."

Li Qianqing made a quick calculation. In the next forty or fifty years, if he wanted to enter the middle stage of the Jindan period, these Nine-bend Spiritual Pills were still a little short.

The next time he would refine the Nine-bend Spiritual Pill would be twenty-seven years later. With three batches of spiritual medicine and three furnaces, he could probably refine seventeen Nine-bend Spiritual Pills. To refine eighteen pills without a single waste pill, he would need some luck.

After the sign of retreat outside the cave was changed, Li Qianqing, who returned to the cave, took the third-level inferior Nine-bend Spiritual Pill and began to practice.

…

The following year.

In May.

Three months ago, Li Qiuxin of the Li family successfully established his foundation and became the tenth foundation-building cultivator in the family. If there was another foundation-building cultivator, the number of foundation-building cultivators in the family would reach double digits.

For the Li family, this tenth foundation-building cultivator came a little late. After all, it was already a Jindan cultivation family, and Li Qiuxin was the first foundation-building cultivator born in the Li family after more than thirty years. For an ordinary Jindan Xiuxian family, it will basically take no more than 25 years for a foundation-building cultivator to be born in the family.

You know, when it was still a foundation-building Xiuxian family, the Li family gave birth to foundation-building cultivators very quickly in those years.

At that time, the Li family was rising rapidly.

From the outside world's point of view, the Li family, which is now rising rapidly, has returned to normal. There are two such Xiuxian families in the history of Zhao State. It developed rapidly when it was still a foundation-building Xiuxian family, and then it became normal after it became a Jindan Xiuxian family.

The reason for this is also related to the development standards of Jindan Xiuxian families and foundation-building Xiuxian families. The Li family gave birth to three foundation-building cultivators in ten years before. Although this is rare in Jindan Xiuxian families, it is also a normal phenomenon after rounding off.

In the cave of the patriarch of Changqing Mountain, at this moment, in addition to Li Qianqing, there is also his fourth uncle Li Lilong in the cave.

"Fourth uncle, you look very happy. Is there any good news?" Li Qianqing asked Li Lilong, who was smiling.

"There is good news." Li Lilong nodded, and without keeping Li Qianqing in suspense, he put a storage bag on the stone table, and then continued, "All the materials you need to refine your life magic weapon have been collected."

In Li Lilong's view, this is good news for Li Qianqing and the Li family.

The more powerful the family patriarch is, the more secure the family is.

And at present, Li Qianqing is still the only Jindan stage cultivator in their Li family.

"Good news." Li Qianqing also smiled, and then he opened the storage bag on the stone table.

After the materials in the storage bag belong to him, they also follow the process of contribution point exchange. Now he is still the cultivator with the most contribution points in the family. According to his possible future contributions, these contribution points will basically not be used up, and there will be more and more.

"I won't bother you to refine your life magic weapon."

This time Li Lilong came and left quickly. After handing the materials to Li Qianqing, he didn't talk much.

In his view, Li Qianqing's current priority is to quickly refine his life magic weapon and further improve his strength.

After Li Lilong left, as he said, Li Qianqing began to refine his natal magic weapon, the Flame Dragon Pearl.

For him now, even if he refines a magic weapon, it will actually have almost no effect on his combat power, but it will be different in the future. As his realm continues to improve and his natal magic weapon continues to be refined, its power will become stronger and stronger.

There is a rough standard for the level of refining for refining natal magic weapons. As long as you can refine a top-grade magic weapon, you can basically refine your natal magic weapon well.

For a Jindan stage cultivator, even if he has no talent for refining, as long as he spends more than half a year studying, he can refine a top-grade magic weapon. As for refining a low-grade spiritual weapon, if he does not have talent, it is difficult to refine it even if he spends ten years, unless his own realm breaks through a major realm again and enters the Nascent Soul stage.

Li Qianqing's current situation is that he has an 80% chance of success in refining a low-grade spiritual weapon, and he has no chance of even half a percent for a medium-grade spiritual weapon.

This level is more than enough to refine the life magic weapon, and there is basically no possibility of failure.

After Li Qianqing adjusted his state, he took out all the materials for refining the life magic weapon, and these materials had to be slowly melted with Dan fire.

This process is relatively simple, but requires a lot of patience.

The materials that have been melted by Dan fire must also be marked with his mark. If the mark is forgotten during the process, the material is not scrapped and cannot be used, but it cannot be used to refine the life magic weapon.

Compared with the refining of ordinary magic weapons, the refining time of life magic weapons is usually very long.

This time Li Qianqing was in seclusion for more than half a year.

During the half year of seclusion, Li Qianqing was refining his life treasure, the Flame Dragon Pearl. The spiritual power of a Jindan-stage cultivator recovers very quickly. Normally, as long as they are in a place with sufficient spiritual energy, even if they do not perform any exercises, they will automatically recover 10% of their spiritual power in a day. The richer the spiritual energy, the faster the recovery speed.

This is the result of the automatic operation of the golden elixir in the body.

For a cultivator at the foundation-building level, even if they are at the peak of the foundation-building level, it is good to be able to continuously refine for more than half a month when refining pills or refining tools. One month is very difficult for them. Even if a Jindan-stage cultivator refines tools for more than half a year, there is no problem at all. Even if they refine for one or two more years, it is the same. However, if they refine continuously for five years, Jindan-stage cultivators will not be able to bear it mentally. After becoming a Yuanying cultivator, theoretically, it is no problem to refine for a hundred years.

"Completed!"

In the cave, a deep red bead with a fiery breath floated in front of Li Qianqing. Under the influence of the bead, the temperature of the entire cave continued to rise.

This is the Flame Dragon Pearl.

Li Qianqing opened his mouth and directly sucked the Flame Dragon Pearl into his stomach.

At this moment, in his body, the Flame Dragon Pearl was rotating around the golden elixir. Now that he was not practicing the exercises, his ability to absorb external spiritual energy and convert it into spiritual power was 30% higher than before.

This was one of the auxiliary abilities of the Flame Dragon Pearl, his life treasure.
