Chapter 168 Foundation Building


Chapter 168 Foundation Building

Half a year later, the monks who came out of the Scarlet Forbidden Land either had succeeded in building the foundation or had failed. After half a year, the successive foundation-building turmoil began to fade away in everyone's sight as time went by. The only person who still made everyone doubtful was Lu Xiaotian of Lingbi Peak Domain, a man who seemed to outsiders to have A guy who has dozens of Foundation Building Pills but still hasn’t left the cave.

Lu Xiaotian naturally knows nothing about the heated discussions from the outside world. He also did not expect that one Foundation Establishment Pill after another would digest the power of the medicine and complete the tempering of the body, expelling a large number of impurities from the body. The eight extraordinary meridians in his body were opened again and again. Although the further to the back, the less medicinal power is absorbed. But there is always some reasonable use. But what cannot be used and cannot be absorbed by the body will be released into the barrier like a flood. As a result, the spiritual beings within the barrier have become as dense as shade.

Because Lu Xiaotian was focused on the foundation, he didn’t notice that cracks began to appear on the ground inside the barrier where the spiritual creatures had grown into pieces.

He didn't hesitate too much. He had already taken six of the eleven Foundation Establishment Pills and still had not succeeded, so he continued to take them. There will always be times when he succeeds, even if his qualifications are poor, his determination is not inferior to anyone else.

Repeatedly, when the eighth pill was swallowed, although the spiritual power transformed by the Foundation Establishment Pill in the body was still rampant, this time it was not as violent as before. Instead, it continued to gather in the Dantian, forming a ball of white mist. As the mist gathered more and more, while opening up the Dantian space, the mist itself was also squeezed. For a long time, a drop of liquefied vitality dropped from the white mist. It should not be said that it was Yuan Qi. liquid. This is also the source of mana for foundation-building monks. After the first drop, more Yuan liquid dripped into the Dantian one after another, and the Yuan liquid formed a flexible and changeable liquid mass. There is a huge spiritual energy inside.

The magical bead that had been suspended in the Dantian turned around and began to absorb the essence liquid. Seeing that the essence liquid in the Dantian was about to be sucked out, the realm was a little unstable. Lu Xiaotian He was shocked. He hadn't stayed in the Foundation Establishment stage for long, but he was about to fall back to the Qi Refining stage. How could this happen? He quickly took another Foundation Establishment Pill.

The essence liquid in his Dantian filled up again, and the situation in his body was slightly stable. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could feel joy, there was a sudden roar in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, as if something exploded. Lu Xiaotian's consciousness lost control of his Dantian and returned to the barrier involuntarily. He stared at the barrier in stunned silence. It should not be said that it was a broken barrier. In the past, the barrier that allowed him to attack with spells or even magic weapons had always been safe and sound. Now it was covered with spider web-like cracks. The thick ground was cracking and the mountains were shaking. Perhaps this described the scene in front of him.

Cracking

With a sound like an explosion, the barrier actually shattered into five pieces and the floating islands were divided into five directions. A huge barrier reappeared on the edge of the five floating islands, wrapping it up. These five pieces appeared in five colors: gold, green, blue, red, and yellow. Could it be that it represents the Five Elements?

I just wanted to use my consciousness to distribute these spiritual grasses, but due to the unreasonable distribution of spiritual grass attributes, the spiritual grasses that should have grown on the earth and wood floating islands appeared on the gold and fire floating islands. Withering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then re-transforming into spiritual energy.

Lu Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly moved several of the most important fruit trees and spiritual herbs, such as Zhuyan Dan, to the corresponding floating islands. Except for these few trees that had been snatched out, most of the others were replaced. Transformed into spiritual energy floating in the air.

Fortunately, before that, he had already backed up a lot of the spiritual herbs of the Foundation-Building Pill and the Heaven-Returning Pill and put them aside in jade boxes. Otherwise, these spiritual herbs would be converted into spiritual energy again, and he would Where can I find all the spiritual grass seeds? Even if they are all found, I am afraid it will take a lot of time and energy, which is obviously not worth the gain. Several floating islands still retain some spiritual herbs corresponding to their attributes. Lu Xiaotian scratched his head, not knowing whether this change was good or bad.

After processing the spirit grass, Lu Xiaocai discovered that each floating island had an extra crystal tablet corresponding to the color of the floating island, and in the middle of the five floating islands, a three-foot-high crystal tablet appeared. A surplus of colorless crystal tablets.

"What the hell is this?" Lu Xiaotian was puzzled. The barrier he had always been familiar with before had changed too much. His main and deputy souls were floating around among the five floating islands. Apart from dividing it into five sections, I really didn’t find anything wrong with it. But when his main soul looked at the crystal tablet in the middle, the crystal tablet suddenly lit up. Out of fun, he let his deputy soul enter the crystal monument on Tufu Island. Suddenly, he felt that he had an inexplicable connection with Tufu Island.

What a weird place. After Lu Xiaotian wandered for a while, he couldn't find anything wrong and could only give up temporarily, so his consciousness regained control of his body.

“By the way, the Dharma Pearl.” Lu Xiaotian suddenly remembered the strange changes in the Dharma Pearl in his Dantian when he took the Foundation Establishment Pill. At this time, his spiritual consciousness entered the magic bead and found that the second grid of the magic bead was filled with mana.

"Cold Desolate Seal!" These simple words make people feel a majestic and severe cold. The first level of the magic bead is the group-attack Ice Soul Xuanyin. The second grid is just the opposite, and is only suitable for fighting alone. Lu Xiaotian had a feeling that when he saw the words Hanhuang Seal, he had already mastered this spell. Of course, he knew that after refining the magic beads, the magic became one with him. No other understanding is required. You can twist it at will.

Regaining control of his body, the feeling of mana filling his body made Lu Xiaotian feel extremely happy. More than ten years of hard work on the road to cultivating immortality finally paid off.

After cleaning the black dirt on his body, Lu Xiaotian went to Shiyun Peak, preparing to bid farewell to Wu Yan and his daughter for the time being. He is now a foundation-building monk and is qualified to lead the peak alone. No need to stay in Shiyunfeng anymore. However, Wu Yan and her father were not there, so she had to give up the idea.

"Stop, you." The Qi Refining Dzogchen Immortal Guard responsible for guarding Qinglian Peak stopped in front of Lu Xiaotian with a straight face, but when he felt the extremely powerful spiritual pressure emanating from Lu Xiaotian's body, his expression suddenly changed and he bowed quickly. , "Master, uncle!"

"Yes" Lu Xiaotian waved his hand, indicating that the other party did not need to be polite. Climbing up the steps along the green and winding ancient road, he appeared at the foot of Qinglian Peak again. Looking at this majestic mountain peak, Lu Xiaotian felt for the first time that this spiritual mountain was no longer so high on the mountain. Maybe this is the change in mood caused by the change in strength.

The threshold set by the main peak of Qinglian is only for Qi refining disciples, and is not fortified for foundation-building monks.

"It's you!" Qian Dali came out of the cave and happened to see Lu Xiaotian walking several feet away along the stone steps. Qian Dali couldn't help but spit fire from his eyes. "Senior Brother Qian, it's been a long time." Lu Xiaotian smiled and pretended not to notice Qian Dali's angry glare. According to Weng Zhihan's introduction, Qian Dali's qualifications were average, and it seemed true. From the time he saw him in Wangyue City, although With his strength at that time, he couldn't clearly see the depth of Qian Dali, but now More than eight years have passed, and Qian Dali still lives at the bottom of Qinglian's main peak, and his cultivation level is only at the early stage of the foundation construction period. According to Weng Zhihan's oral account, Qian Dali has entered the foundation construction stage for decades, and Weng Zhihan Although that guy Han has evil intentions, some of the things he said about Qian Dali are not necessarily false.

The monks in the foundation building stage are not as complicated as the Qi refining stage. They are only divided into three stages, the early stage, the middle stage and the late stage. The initial stage is to build one to three levels of foundation. Although Qian Dali's cultivation level was higher than him at this time, he was also a foundation-building monk, so the other party could no longer bully him, and after leaving Lingxiao Palace, he might not be afraid of this old guy.

Just saying hello to Qian Dali politely, Lu Xiaotian went straight up the mountain. Qian Dali's face was filled with uncertainty. The feud between the two has been brewing for several years, and it cannot be easily eased. But what he never expected was that Lu Xiaotian could also successfully build the foundation, even though Lu Xiaotian had poor qualifications. But this is in the eyes of others, Qian Dali's qualifications are not very good, and Lu Xiaotian entered the foundation building stage at such a young age, his future potential will be higher than him. If Lu Xiaotian grows up to surpass him in cultivation, I'm afraid that's a real disadvantage to him.

While Qian Dali was secretly calculating, Lu Xiaotian had arrived at Wu Chengzu’s cave again. Being in the place with the strongest aura in the entire Qinglian Peak Domain, Lu Xiaotian couldn’t help but feel relaxed. At this time, he had just built the foundation. Practicing in a place with strong spiritual energy is conducive to a stable foundation.

"Junior Brother Lu, why are you here so late? I have been waiting for you for several months." Wu Chengzu welcomed Lu Xiaotian into the cave with a smile on his face.

“Wuzhang Peak has been waiting for a long time. There were some accidents during the foundation building process, but fortunately, it was just barely successful in the past few days. Finally, those foundation building pills were not wasted.”

Lu Xiaotian said with a bitter smile. In front of Wu Chengzu, he obviously did not move forward and retreat freely around Qian Dali. He felt a huge sense of oppression all the time. He could become a Palm Peak and rank among the dozens of foundation-building monks in the Qinglian Peak Domain. It seems that the leader is not an easy person to deal with.

"You have established your foundation now, so you can just call me Brother Wizard from now on." Compared with before during the Qi refining period, Wu Chengzu was obviously more enthusiastic about Lu Xiaotian.

“After entering the foundation building period, the place where you live is obviously not suitable. You can decide whether to choose a cave on the main peak of Qinglian, or choose another independent peak. I believe there are pros and cons. You also know.”

“Of course, you don’t have to rush to choose you. In addition, after building the foundation, you need to complete the history of the sect. "Practice the mission and go out to practice for three years."

"Practice the mission?" Lu Xiaotian looked a little surprised. He had never heard of it before, but this was normal. He had been working hard on foundation building before. Preparation, but he knew very little about what happened after the foundation was established. No wonder he didn't see Wu Yan again when he came out after the foundation was established. He should have left Lingxiao Palace to practice.

"Yes, each sect has similar tasks. The time span is about three years. Each sect of cultivating immortals has a fixed sphere of influence in the secular country. First, because each monk in the Qi Refining Period, or Growing up in Lingxiao Palace, I have never experienced the sufferings of ordinary mortals. Therefore, it is good to walk more and see more, which is good for the mental experience. Either it is a monk who has struggled all the way and needs to eliminate the murderous spirit in his body. Secondly, he patrols the sphere of influence for the Immortal Palace. See if there are any foreign monsters worshiping in the secular countries within. . In addition, if there are any spiritual stone veins hidden deep in the ground, if you encounter a situation that cannot be dealt with, immediately notify the Immortal Palace with the Thousand Miles Transmission Note, and the Immortal Palace will send reinforcements at that time."

" The secular country is also the sphere of influence of the major cultivating sects. ?" Lu Xiaotian looked puzzled. In his opinion, not only is the spiritual energy thin, but also there are not many spiritual objects. Of course, the degree of spiritual objects is different in different places, but compared to the Wangyue Mountains, there are also various The area near where the Great Xiu Xian Sect is located is more than a mile away. Even some large-scale immortal cultivating families are mostly located in places with rich spiritual energy. As for the small families scattered in secular countries, most of them work hard to send their promising children to the Immortal Cultivation Sect.

This was the first time he heard that the Xiuxian Sect divided the sphere of influence into the secular country.

"Of course there are. Some evil things cannot move us, Immortal Sects, so they often choose ordinary mortals to do it, and there are many evil and strange techniques that use ordinary people as guides. Ordinary refining Qi disciples would be extremely disadvantaged in dealing with this kind of evil, so every sect would send The newly established disciples patrol the territory. In addition, the small immortal cultivating families in the secular country are actually responsible for helping the corresponding sects to find outstanding disciples. If there were no such secular mortals, wouldn't we, the immortal sects, become the same? The source of no water?" Wu Chengzu explained with a smile.

“That’s it.” Lu Xiaotian nodded. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed true. Although there are many disciples of the major immortal sects, and the number of monks with spiritual roots among secular mortals is relatively limited, but compared to the huge population of mortals, The base number is actually quite considerable.

"In order to avoid accidents, each external patrol team sent by the Immortal Palace is completed by five foundation-building disciples. However, Junior Brother Lu, you established the foundation a bit late. Most of the same group of Qi-refining disciples have already left the mountain gate. Now add There are only three of you. I will inform you later when the people behind you are gathered.”

“Thank you for reminding me, Brother Wizard, then I will take my leave.” Lu Xiaotian knew it was time to leave. And he also had some things to deal with. Following Wu Chengzu's guidance, he chose an independent mountain peak with medium-rich spiritual energy and a somewhat off-center location. In fact, there are a relatively large number of foundation-building disciples in the Qinglian Peak Domain. Now that they fall into his hands, it will naturally not be very good. However, the secluded location suited him just right.
