Chapter 400: Golden elixir preaching
Hearing that Huang Shengxin would go into seclusion immediately after returning, Song Qingming was a little surprised, and immediately thought of the reason why he wanted to go into seclusion in a hurry.
But before Song Qingming could ask, Huang Shengxin sighed and said directly: "To be honest, Fellow Daoist Song probably also knows that my life is running out, and this time I have already planned to go back to life and death. If I don’t get a breakthrough, I won’t go out to meet people again.
I’m ashamed to say that I have been practicing Taoism for more than two hundred years, and the first half of my life can be said to have been smooth sailing. Shui has cultivated to the peak of foundation building without experiencing many setbacks, but when it comes to forming the core, he has repeatedly failed to be favored by God. Over the past few decades, I have exhausted all my efforts and still can't get in.
Although we, the foundation-building monks, are only one step away from the Golden Elixir Avenue, we are as out of reach as the bright moon in the sky. We don’t know how to cross this natural chasm.”
Hearing Huang Shengxin suddenly say these heartfelt words, Song Qingming and Huang Shengyue were silent for a moment. They didn't know what to say and could only look aside.
Even Huang Shengxin, the most gifted and gifted monk in Qinghe County in the past century, can only say such sad words when facing this golden elixir avenue. What hope would there be for the two of them?
Foundation-building monks can only live for more than two hundred years at most. If they cannot form elixirs, even if they are prosperous for a hundred more years, they will eventually turn into a pile of dust. What monks seek in the end is the chance of immortality. As his cultivation level got higher, Song Qingming also felt that he was yearning for it more and more.
"My two Taoist friends, I have sent you here. I hope you have a safe journey!" Watching the two sword lights disappear in front of his eyes, Song Qingming turned around and stepped on the flying sword and quickly returned to Tuoyun. Mountain.
With the departure of many monks who participated in the trade fair, the entire Tuoyun Mountain gradually became quieter than the lively atmosphere in the past few days.
Compared with the auctions secretly held by the Tiandan Alliance and the smaller trade fairs such as the Bailong Mountain Conference, the Tuoyun Mountain Trade Fair, which is held once in decades, is much better for the safety of the monks participating in the trade fair. Basically, there will be no Which monk would stay in Tuoyun Mountain for fear of being stared at?
After all, Tuoyunshan Trade Fair was organized by Old Ancestor Chen himself. Many of the monks who came to participate in the trade fair were personally invited by him, whether they were greedy casual cultivators or nearby bandit cultivators. Generally no one would dare to blatantly target the monks who participated in the trade fair, otherwise it would be a disgrace to Tuo Yunshan, and would make it difficult for Patriarch Chen.
In the world of immortal cultivation in the northern part of the Wei Kingdom, if you rashly offend a golden elixir cultivator like Patriarch Chen, the consequences can be imagined. It doesn’t even require the Patriarch himself to take action himself, but only his disciples and disciples. It was enough to wipe out a large bandit nest like Eagle's Nest Ridge.
After staying in the temporary cave on the mountain for another three days, Song Qingming finally received a notice from the monks sent by Fengyang De that the day for Patriarch Chen to open the altar and preach was coming soon, and the location was still on the top of the mountain. on the platform.
Not only Song Qingming, but also all the other monks who entered the top ten cherished this hard-won opportunity to listen to the sermon of the ancestor of Jindan. When Song Qingming arrived at the top of the mountain, these All the foundation-building monks came here without missing a beat.
In addition to Song Qingming and other monks who participated in the sword discussion conference, several disciples of Chen Jinliang and some more talented disciples also came here. Everyone sat cross-legged in the open space in the middle of the platform on the top of the mountain.
Not long after, an old man with a white beard who looked like a fairy came riding on the wind and landed directly in front of everyone.
After Chen Jinliang glanced at the many monks who were already waiting in the open space, he walked directly to a gray futon placed in front of him and slowly sat down. "I have actually been away from Taoism for a long time in these years. It was also because I saw many talented monks of your younger generation at this trade fair that I suddenly came up with the idea of opening an altar to preach.
< br>
Everyone here today is also Basically, we are not far away from forming the elixir. Let me tell you some of my experiences and insights when I formed the elixir. Of course, what I am talking about is only my personal experience. As for how much I can understand for you, I will share with you in the future. How much help there will be depends on everyone’s luck.”
Hearing that what Chen Jinliang was going to say was exactly what everyone wanted to know about pill formation, everyone present, including Song Qingming, pricked up their ears and did not dare to make any more noise, for fear that they would miss this golden man. Every word that Patriarch Dan said next.
Although Chen Jinliang only spoke for half an hour, many of the monks present fell into deep thought on the spot. Until the ancestor had already stood up and left the top of the mountain, many people were still there. Sitting there, thinking about some of the spiritual experiences he shared not long ago.
When Chen Jinliang entered Taoism at a young age, he had been practicing with an old Taoist who was in the Qi refining stage. It was not until his talent for cultivation gradually emerged that he had the opportunity to become a disciple of a foundation-building monk.
Although his master helped him a lot, as a foundation-building casual cultivator with an average reputation, his master could not get him a foundation-building pill. The key was to rely on Chen Jinliang to risk his own death to get through.
The same was true when it came to forming pills. Although Chen Jinliang had some opportunities after he had reached the ninth level of foundation building and obtained two spiritual objects that were useful for forming pills, he was finally able to form pills. Success mainly relies on his own understanding of practice.
Unlike the monk's physical body and soul that needs to be transformed to break through the foundation, the monk's elixir formation does not pose a great danger to his life. Even if the breakthrough fails, at most he will lose some vitality, and he can slowly recover after a period of conditioning.
But compared to the difficulty of foundation building breakthrough, the more difficult thing about forming pills is that there are too few spiritual objects that can assist in forming pills. The more common three kinds of pills like Jade Dust Pill and Void Spirit Pill The super spiritual elixir can only increase the probability of forming the elixir by about half to 10%.
Other better third-level spiritual objects that assist in forming pills are extremely difficult to see near the Fuyun Mountains. Even large Nascent Soul sects such as Xiaoyao Sect can hardly find one or two. Piece comes.
For this reason, when a monk breaks through the golden elixir realm, his reliance on external objects is lower than that of foundation building. The greater impact is on the monk's understanding of his own cultivation and techniques.
Especially monks like Chen Jinliang who can successfully form elixirs as casual cultivators are basically people with excellent talents in spiritual understanding of the way of cultivation. Some of his cultivation experiences are exactly those of Song Qingming and others. The most urgent need.
