Chapter 128 The road to foundation building
Sit quietly with your eyes closed and no distracting thoughts in your mind.
When the five elements are combined, one transformation is successful, and the form of Hunyuan is obtained.
The flesh and blood texture, the five internal organs and the bones no longer hear the meaning of the five elements, and return to nature again and again.
The soul is more condensed; the sea of qi is full and expanded; the flesh and blood become more solid; the sea of consciousness is stable; and the mind is less susceptible to intrusion.
Lin Bai silently felt it and felt that the most useful thing at the moment was to expand the Qi Sea by 20% and condense more spiritual power. In addition, the sea of consciousness is stable, and you can control the mist more freely. You can also activate more mist, and you can control the flying knives more easily.
Open your eyes and look at yourself in the mirror.
His face remains the same, slightly paler. He barely lives up to his reputation as a pretty boy.
Usually, body tempering methods are successful, and most of them can increase the luster of the skin and create a different kind of charm. But Lin Bai's skin was as usual, as if it had not been tempered.
But if you feel it carefully, you will know its beauty.
Lin Bai thought for a moment, then took out a flying knife and cut his wrist.
The skin is tough, and the flesh, muscles, and bones beneath it are also full of vitality. The flying knife cannot cut the skin.
With the meaning of earth fire, the flying knife immediately turned red and violent, the skin was immediately burned open, and the flesh and blood were scorched black, but the force of the flying knife was blocked.
The trace of earthly fire wanted to invade along the flesh and blood, but it was dissipated before it penetrated very far.
Looking at the wound again, it has slowly healed. It looks like an ordinary wound, not like it has been corroded by the earth's fire.
Lin Bai sat quietly for a while, then took out five other flying knives and opened them one by one.
Then the six flying knives lifted off the ground one after another, sometimes fast, sometimes slowly. After a quarter of an hour, they were all burning red and full of fire.
The flying knife is more powerful than before and can come and go at will. Each of the six flying knives seems to be controlled by someone, sometimes they come together in unison, sometimes you are in front of me and sometimes you are behind me, sometimes they form a formation, and sometimes they are chaotic.
After galloping like this for a quarter of an hour, the six flying knives slowly lost their scorching heat and returned to their original red color, one by one.
While quenching his body, Lin Bai also did not relax in practicing his flying knife skills.
Now, with the success of his first transformation, Lin Bai's control over the flying knives became more flexible and lighter, and his power also increased.
"After working hard for a long time, I can finally let the six Sister Pei do various actions as I want. I can make them go up and down together, and I can make them happy together, and I can make them happy one by one. And I can make them not interfere with each other. , can also cooperate with each other.”
"Six Sister Pei is still too single. We need to find six more Jiang girls."
Lin Bai gritted his teeth and set an ambitious goal.
More than six months have passed since the Battle of the Catacombs, and now I have learned something from the comparison again.
With the ability shown by senior Zhu Jianshui, Lin Bai was confident that he could win. However, after all, Senior Zhu Jianshui is old and frail, has rarely experienced battles, and is only in the middle stage of foundation building, so he cannot win without force.
Thinking back to Si Na Shenxu, although his amber poison was weird, his five elements were in harmony, making him more resistant to beating than before. Therefore, the poison will be released more slowly, and the power of amber poison will be greatly reduced. When the flying knives come out, Huo restrains him a little, and then attacks forcefully, there is an 80% chance of victory.
But if you face someone as fierce as Boss Liu, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win. Firstly, the opponent is in the late stage of foundation building, so he is far behind in the realm; secondly, Hunyuan Tempering Body is mainly defensive after all; thirdly, the opponent is fire, and restrains his attack.
Lin Bai tasted it carefully and felt that if he encountered someone in the late stage of foundation building, and someone as fierce as Boss Liu, who was born from iron, it would be difficult to defeat him.
If it were an ordinary early-stage foundation-building monk, he would definitely be able to win. Even in the middle stage of foundation building, as long as you are not in a strange state, you can still give it a try.
When Lin Bai was traveling in the past, he had heard a lot about practicing qi and forcibly killing foundations, and building foundations and forcibly killing golden elixirs, and he had longed for it. Although I don't dare to say that I can definitely kill someone by jumping through the ranks, I can at least have the capital to fight.
"Now that Hunyuan has changed, the flying knife method can kill and defend. It took a lot of time to develop!"
"I still need someone to try out! It's difficult to practice casually. Unlike the disciples of the sect, you can always have foundation building guidance."
Lin Bai sighed randomly, but felt inadequate in his heart. He thought that the method of Hunyuan Body Tempering had been completed once, so why not just do it a few more times.
"Anyway, I have plenty of time! My name is Zhuan Lun, so I naturally want to spin more. People who have reached a higher level than me can easily hurt me!"
Now that the Hunyuan has been obtained, if the body is tempered again, one can choose from the five elements at will, as long as the sequence of combination and mutual generation is enough.
Thinking of this, Lin Bai suddenly discovered that his five elements were in one, but Sister Pei had only tasted four of them, and had not yet tasted the effect of wood tempering.
"I have only rented Zhutaoyuan for two months, and I don't know if they will let me rent it for Qi training. It seems that I have to spend a lot of money."
Just as Lin Bai was thinking about it, a burst of spiritual energy came in from outside, indicating that there was a visitor.
When the door opened, there was a woman in green clothes, about twenty-five or six years old.
The person has a calm complexion and has a bamboo hairpin in his hair, which is quite elegant.
This person's name is Chun Yuye, and he is in charge of many caves in Zhutao Garden, which is equivalent to Jiang Chun's responsibilities. However, most of this place is for foundation construction, and there are far fewer people, and people from Chunyu's family use it for their own use, so she is much more leisurely than Jiang Chun.
"Sister Chunyu." Doze brought a pillow. Lin Bai's mouth became sweeter, with a surprise smile on his face. He bowed and took two steps forward, saying: "Just now, something moved in my heart, and I seemed to feel happy. It turned out that I should be here. On my sister.”
Chunyuye smiled and said, "I have nothing happy to tell you."
"It's a great joy for me to be able to see my sister." Lin Bai said in a very serious manner, shamelessly.
Chun Yuye finally laughed out loud and said, "You are so sweet." She looked at Lin Bai for a moment, and then said, "Your lease period has expired for three days."
"Three days have passed?" Lin Bai looked surprised, "I have forgotten the time for a while during this retreat. Please don't blame me, sister."
"For Yao Yatou's sake, forget it." Chunyu Ye said.
"How can that be done? Doesn't this mean that I am asking my sister to spare the favor and making things difficult for her?" Lin Bai looked serious and said solemnly: "I will just supply my sister."
Seeing that Lin Bai was quite sincere, Chunyu Ye felt even more relieved and said, "It's not a favor, I can make the decision on this matter myself."
"Thank you so much, sister." Lin Bai sighed and said, "How about I renew the lease for another two months? So that I can make up for my mistakes?"
"This..." Chunyu Ye looked hesitant, "Most of the Zhutao Spiritual Land is rented by foundation-building monks, and there is always no shortage of tenants. You are a prostitute from Yao Yatou, so my sisters and I let you rent it for two months. . If the lease is renewed..."
"Since it's difficult for my sister, let's forget it." Lin Bai expressed regret, "I just hate that I am addicted to spiritual practice and rarely go out to see people. In the future... I don't know when I will be able to see my sister's face."
< br>
"Sigh." Although Chun Yuye was a familiar guest, he was a descendant of Jindan, and he lacked a bit of vision and temper. He immediately said: "It's only two months, you can stay here." She patted her chest, " Go and renew your contract with me.”
"Alas." Lin Bai also sighed, "How can there be a kind-hearted person like my sister in the world? How lucky am I to meet such a person? The magic of nature is truly amazing."
Ma Liu signed the deed and paid the rent happily, and Lin Bai didn't even have half a piece of spiritual stone left.
Afterwards, Lin Bai offered the Qi Condensing Pill as a gift, but they refused to accept it, which made Lin Bai even more embarrassed and ashamed.
"We are both descendants of Jindan, but Yao Qianyuan still wants to slander him even if he doesn't understand. The gap between people is really huge."
Lin Bai called her sister for a long time, then left Zhutao Garden and went straight to Xinyifang Street.
Now I have a lot of things on my hands. First of all, to get the body of Hunyuan, you need to ask Sister Pei to taste it.
She also had to refine some Qi Condensing Pills to assist her in her practice.
We also need to meet Senior Zhu. Earlier, Yang Shu mentioned the Zhu family, and Lin Bai felt that it was not just casual talk.
I still have to go to the Crystal Palace... Forget it, I won't go to the Crystal Palace. I'm too lazy to pay attention to Qu Ruyi.
Also, make elixirs for Jiang Chun so that the favor can be maintained. As for Fengming Pavilion, let's put it aside for a while, and when the fire spiritual energy is quenching the body, we can practice more together.
Lin Bai made short-term plans and went to Tianchi Pavilion first.
Gai Yingqiu was at the counter. She raised her eyes and saw Lin Bai, and immediately said: "Xiao Se... Fellow Taoist Yun."
Lin Bai was a decent man, he bowed and made good relations a priority.
Since we accidentally hooked up with Yang Shu, what if Gai Yingqiu wants to give something away again? Maybe I can pick up some junk.
Gai Yingqiu returned the favor, and across the counter, she asked in a low voice: "Why haven't you come for so long?"
It’s as if we don’t know each other! Lin Bai smiled apologetically and said, "I finally rented Chunyu's family's Zhutao Garden spiritual land. I concentrated on practicing and forgot to go out."
"Senior Brother Yang, have you accepted the borneol?" Gai Yingqiu didn't care about Lin Bai's troubles at all.
"Of course I took it." Lin Bai touched the storage ring on his finger.
Gai Yingqiu was overjoyed when she heard this and asked, "What did Senior Brother Yang say?" She was both happy and looking forward to it.
"Senior Yang said that borneol is precious, so I'll spare you the expense." Lin Bai joked.
"He..." Gai Yingqiu actually shed tears. She wiped the corners of her eyes, sniffed and said, "It's just a few months' salary saved. What's it worth? If he can be well, I will be happy. ”
Lin Bai was stunned and shocked. I thought to myself that you are still guarding the counter. Although you are not very old, and I don’t expect you to be polite and sophisticated, you should be more thoughtful, right? Why are you so out of character when it comes to matters between men and women?
It seems that all the girls in your family have this problem, because they rarely experience setbacks and hardships. Yao Qianyuan and Jiang Yatou were anomalies.
Moreover, this is too humble.
Lin Bai couldn't empathize with her. After all, he and Sister Pei had lived and died together, and he didn't say who was chasing whom. Anyway, they ended up sleeping on the bed.
Of course, Lin Bai just had to coax her in order to get her to change a few more positions.
"What else did he say?" Gai Yingqiu wiped away her tears and asked firmly. "... He said that Senior Sister Gai is gentle, beautiful, chaste and polite. She is a lady among all the people." Lin Bai was telling the truth.
"He, he actually looks at me like this?" Gai Yingqiu was happy again. She asked anxiously: "Then why doesn't he see me so often?"
"Senior Sister Gai, Senior Yang has his heart set on the great road." Lin Bai persuaded him tactfully.
"The road is difficult and endless, and you need someone to help you." Gai Yingqiu now made sense.
Lin Bai didn't say anything, thinking, "Have you kept up with your practice?" They are building the foundation, and you sit in the closet every day. Could it be that your family has given up on you?
"When this year's rotation is over, I will concentrate on my practice." Gai Yingqiu was full of pride. She looked at Lin Bai again, took out a bottle of Qi Condensing Pill and gave it to her, saying: "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's just a message, how can I let senior sister spend money?" Lin Bai didn't take the Qi Condensing Pill, and his face was serious, "Senior sister had quite a misunderstanding of me before, but in my heart I respect and respect senior sister."
Gai Yingqiu didn't seem to have gotten over the stupidity just now, and she was a little stunned.
"Senior Sister should know. I'm looking for Senior Sister Yao to ask her to send a message to Pei Ning to express my love for you." Lin Bai was the best at showing off. He sighed and continued, "That's why I know best about Senior Sister's love for me." The most painful thing is that I understand how difficult it is for my senior sister to miss her. How can I not know that I feel the same way?”
Lin Bai was completely shameless.
Sure enough, when Gai Yingqiu heard these words, she seemed to be touched again, and her face was moved, "I never thought that you are my acquaintance..." She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes again, stopped talking, squeezed out a smile, and said: "Before, I know you..." It's my fault. Yao Qianyuan is upstairs, just go find her."
"I'm coming down." Someone said.
Lin Bai and Gai Yingqiu looked over and saw a person walking out of the stairs, it was Yao Qianyuan.
Yao Qianyuan looked at Lin Bai and Gai Yingqiu with a sneer, and stepped out of Tianchi Pavilion.
Lin Bai confessed his crime to Gai Yingqiu and then chased him out.
When they came to the street, the two of them walked about a hundred steps, and Yao Qianyuan suddenly laughed out loud.
She grabbed Lin Bai's arm and praised: "You are finally willing to listen to me!"
Lin Bai was puzzled.
"I read it right. You are the thickest-skinned, sweet-tongued, and you can show off your body. You are indeed a good at seducing people!" She grabbed Lin Bai's arm and whispered, "If you can break the I'll let you sleep ten times in vain!" As she spoke, she stood on tiptoes, whispered a few words into Lin Bai's ear, and then chuckled.
Hehe, you want to cheat on food and drink? Lin Bai didn't say yes or no, he was just fooling around.
After spending a long time talking, Yao Qianyuan was finally fooled away. He even put in a bottle of Qi Condensing Pill, but it was a gift from Gai Yingqiu that night.
Barely enough.
Lin Bai rubbed his aching head, bought some spiritual materials for Qi Condensation Pills, and went to Fengming Pavilion again.
When he came to the second floor, after saying a few words, Lin Bai took out three small wooden boxes.
In the previous chapter, Gai Yingqiu sent gifts to the bamboo forest for unrequited love, and Lin Bai picked them up and got a total of six small boxes of Tianchi borneols.
This thing is not cheap and has always been used by foundation-building monks.
Lin Bai didn't need it, so he just sent it out.
"I got some Tianchi borneols last time, and I just gave them to seniors. There are also two boxes, seniors, please give them to senior Zhu Jianshui and brother Yumao." Lin Bai has a deep relationship with the Zhu family, so he speaks directly without beating around the bush.
Zhu Jianyang didn't say any polite words. Instead, he opened it, took a look at it, and put it away happily.
Then Lin Bai mentioned Yang Shu's inquiry about Zhu.
Zhu Jianyang pondered for a long time and only said: "My ancestor was favored by Patriarch Gu of Qiaoshan Sect's Yuanying in the past, which can be regarded as a master-disciple relationship. The last time the Qiaoshan Sect's new Yuanying was promoted, it was the Gu family's upstart. Because of the friendship Still here, I went with the head of the family to congratulate him..."
He sighed and smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Since the death of my ancestor, we have not been able to get close to the Yuanying of the Gu family, and the younger generations of his family have gradually become unfamiliar. That Yang Shu is well-known, even though he is only building the foundation, he is also It’s not something I, the Zhu family, can get involved with.” He felt quite lonely.
"After all, we need to strengthen ourselves." Zhu Jianyang sighed.
Lin Bai was convinced.
The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, and then Lin Bai took his leave.
I went downstairs and chatted with Zhu Yuling for a few words, then went to Jiang's house.
After meeting several acquaintances, Lin Bai greeted them one by one, remembering that he had not participated in a Taoist gathering for Qi training and casual cultivation for a long time.
Arriving at Dihuo Cave Mansion, Lin Bai first found Jiang Chun.
After chatting for a while, Lin Bai made a few sentences, and then he realized that none of the Jiang sisters had written to him.
I made two furnaces of tiger and wolf pills and handed them over to Jiang Chun.
He took out two more boxes and asked him to pass them on to Senior Jiang Hongbo and Jiang Yatou.
Lin Bai had received favor from the former, and it was even more unclear whether he was favored by the latter, so he should give something as a gift.
The friendship must be maintained.
After finishing these tasks, Lin Bai worked hard to practice the Qi Condensing Pill for another day, and then sat back and waited for Pei Ning.
Another day passed and Pei Ning arrived late. Yao Qianyuan did not follow, and I don't know if it was because he suffered a secret loss from Jiang Hongbo last time.
The spring breeze has a unique style.
Lin Bai sat cross-legged and listened to Peining's tasting. But she is the most reserved on this kind of thing, and will never say another word.
There was no other way, Lin Bai could only push her down, and only managed to force out a few words while teasing her.
"It's more comfortable than before...it seems to be more compatible with me..." Peining was forced to have no choice. After speaking in a low voice, he bit Lin Bai's shoulder, but only left a few shallow teeth marks.
After a busy day, Lin Bai sent her back and went back to Zhutao Garden to temper her body.
This time it starts with wood, then fire, then earth, metal, and finally water.
After staying in Zhutao Garden for two months, Lin Bai sometimes went out for a walk in the cave, so he chatted with Chunyu Ye and made her feel comfortable.
Gai Yingqiu also came twice to ask Lin Bai to deliver things. Lin Bai got a piece of Tianchi lotus seeds for free, and the other was a letter, which was burned by Yang Shu.
The two-month period has come, and Hunyuan Erzhuan has made a good start, so he bid farewell to Chun Yuye.
"Sister, I refined this with my own hands. It's not worth anything, it's just my heart." Lin Bai presented a bottle of Qi Condensing Pill.
"Brother will often come to talk to me in the future. If you still want to rent this place, just ask." Chunyu Ye took the Qi Condensing Pill, with a bit of sadness on his face.
Several of her little sisters were watching and giggling.
After leaving Zhutao Garden, Lin Bai first went to Yao Qianyuan to deliver a message, then went to Fengming Pavilion to get the spiritual materials of Gujing Pill, and then returned to Dihuodong Mansion.
Make Jiang Chun Hulang Pills and then Gujing Pills.
After two busy days, Peining came again. This time she has tasted all five elements and gained the taste of Hunyuan.
Lin Bai had stayed in the Dihuo Cave for more than two months, and the fire spiritual energy had been tempered. Then he went to Zhu's house, drank and chatted with brother Zhu Yumao and others, and then he practiced non-stop, tempering his body with the two elements of earth and gold.
Compared with the underground caves in the past, the Zhu family's earth spiritual energy was inferior and impure.
But these are small things.
After staying at Zhu's house for two months, Lin Baifu went to Jiang's house, paid a visit to Jiang Hongbo, and then moved into the small bamboo house.
Only after the water spiritual energy is tempered, the second transformation of Hunyuan will be completed.
This time it has been nearly a year since the battle in the cave, and a year has passed since the breakthrough to the seventh level of Qi training.
While Lin Bai was tempering his body, he had not left behind his skill of flying knives. Although his cultivation had slowed down a little, he had already reached the eighth level of Qi training.
There is a little light outside the window and a breeze blows.
Lin Bai opened the door, and Jiang Yu was standing outside with a lunch box. She was wearing tight clothes, with a bamboo tube hanging on her waist, revealing the handle of a small flying knife.
Still extremely steady and polite, she entered the room, sat down on her knees, took out the morning food, and placed it on the low table.
"My sister asked me to tell you that she has reached the eighth level of Qi training." Jiang Yu said sternly.
"Is there any more?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.
"Yes." Jiang Yu sat on his knees, with his back straight, and said, "My sister also said that her path to foundation building has begun. I want you to hurry up, she doesn't like to take it slow."
"Then please answer her," Lin Bai ate without hesitation, "just say that I have reached the eighth level of Qi training, and the road to foundation building is right in front of me."
"Okay." Jiang Yu nodded, stretched his head forward slightly, frowned, and said with concern: "Eat slowly, don't choke."
She pushed the fish soup forward again, "Eat fish."
