Chapter 648 The alchemy period is complete
The process of alchemy is boring and tasteless. Even if Li Qing asked himself whether he could endure the loneliness, he couldn't help but feel a little tired and bored.
This is not like refining weapons. Refining weapons requires the use of unconstrained ideas. You can let your thoughts spread freely to refine what you want.
Alchemy, especially refining the same kind of elixir, in this process, the same steps are repeated all the time, and it must be refined strictly according to the instructions on the elixir recipe, which makes Li Qing feel that he Like a mindless puppet.
But fortunately, Li Qing persisted. Looking at the increasing number of soul nourishing pills in his hand, he felt a sense of joy of harvest in his heart.
This is probably one of the few joys of alchemy!
"Huh, this is probably the reason why I didn't choose the alchemy path in the end."
Li Qing shook his head, although it was the weapon refining group that introduced him to the world of immortality.
But in his later cultivation path, he also received some inheritance related to alchemy skills, but in the end he never chose to embark on this path.
As he said that, Li Qing casually cleaned up the inside of the black furnace, and he kicked out all the slag and ash inside.
The entire process of refining the elixir lasted for nearly three months. During these three months, he had not left the cave and had been guarding the black furnace, with Taoist Bai Ling guiding him to refine the elixir.
Of course, after such a long time, Li Qing’s gains are quite big.
This time he refined a total of nine furnaces of spiritual nourishing elixirs, consuming all the inner elixirs he had harvested from hunting third-level monsters overseas.
Most of the inner elixirs of monster beasts come from the secret realm of beasts, and the rest are inner elixirs obtained from sea beasts hunted in the vast sea.
Totaling it all up, there were nine monster inner elixirs in total, allowing him to refine the elixir nine times in total.
After nine times of elixir refining, he refined a total of forty-six soul-nourishing pills!
This amount is absolutely astonishing. You must know that this is a spiritual elixir that can quickly improve the mana of monks in the elixir formation stage.
If any one is thrown to the outside world, it will definitely cause an uproar, and many monks in the alchemy stage will fight for it.
“This harvest is beyond my expectation. I originally thought that being able to refine thirty spirit nourishing pills from nine monster beast inner pills would be quite good.”
While saying Then, Li Qing spread his hands and took out all the spirit-nourishing pills.
There are a total of forty-six pills, each one is round and plump, about the same size as a quail egg.
The rich aroma of elixir floated out from the elixir. Just smelling this smell, Li Qing couldn't help but smile with satisfaction at the corner of his mouth.
With so many spiritual nourishing pills, he can definitely easily push his cultivation to the peak of the pill formation stage and reach the extreme position of this realm.
“Among the forty-six spiritual elixirs, nine are of inferior quality, and the remaining thirty-seven are finished elixirs with strong medicinal power and less erysipelas.”
Confirmed After learning about the harvest from this alchemy, Li Qing put away the forty-five pills, leaving only one finished spirit-nourishing pill in his hand.
That's right, he doesn't want to wait, and plans to start taking the elixir now to practice cultivation.
Gulu!
Li Qing swallowed the round and plump dark brown pill in his mouth in one gulp. He swallowed the whole pill in one gulp without chewing it.
Boom!
Almost instantly, the rich medicinal power contained in the Nourishing Pill spread.
The billowing energy swept out of Li Qing's abdomen like a river, and then began to ripple, impacting every meridian in his body.
“Hiss!”
“As expected, it is an elixir refined from the inner elixir of a third-level monster. It is a bit more powerful than the dragon marrow I took. No wonder it has such properties. It is also effective for monks in the late stage of pill formation!"
Li Qing exhaled, then calmed down the distracting thoughts and thoughts in his heart, and focused all his attention on refining this overbearing medicinal power.
"Red Brilliance Burning Heaven Technique"!
He is very experienced, and he immediately started operating this superior fire technique. At the same time, he also did not forget to mobilize the two heaven and earth spiritual fires in his body to accelerate the refining of the overbearing medicinal power emitted by the spiritual nourishing pill in his body. .
Soon, with the blessing of the two heaven and earth spiritual fires, the medicine, which was originally as fast as a ferocious beast, was quickly tamed and turned into pure rolling energy that merged into the energy in his Dantian. Among the ups and downs of the golden elixir.
After sinking into practice, the concept of time suddenly became blurred.
Li Qing practiced wholeheartedly. Every time he finished refining a pill, his aura would become stronger. At the same time, he would take out another spiritual pill and continue to swallow it. Go down.
This happens again and again, and time flies by.
Before I knew it, half a year had passed.
And in Li Qing's cave, his aura became more and more powerful, faintly like a hidden dragon dormant in the abyss, ready to break through all shackles at any time and soar above the nine heavens.
The person who felt it most clearly was Li Yuhuan. As Li Qing’s registered disciple, she lived on the same spiritual peak as Li Qing.
During this period, as an elder in the sect, she didn’t have much to do, so she stayed in the cave to retreat.
Just after Li Qing began to practice with the help of the Spirit-Nursing Pill, Li Yuhuan clearly felt that at the top of the Spirit Peak, the aura in her master's cave became stronger and stronger.
"It's amazing. Master has already reached the elixir formation stage, but he can still make such rapid progress." Li Yuhuan was a little dumbfounded, and immediately a look of awe appeared on his face.
The road is long, and she naturally understands that the higher the realm, the more difficult it is to improve.
In fact, now that she is a monk in the foundation building stage, she has already felt a little bit of that shackles.
If she hadn't had the thunder attribute spiritual root, and she could often exchange for some elixirs like Ziyang Pill in the sect, her cultivation would not have been so smooth.
But even so, she still has some distance to go before she reaches the middle stage of foundation building.
Even if she is like this, it will naturally be more difficult for other monks with average spiritual roots and qualifications to practice.
In this way, Li Qing spent seven months in a row. During this period, he stayed awake and took a total of thirty-two soul nourishing pills.
And his cultivation has finally reached the peak of the Dan Formation Stage, reaching the end of this realm, only one step away from the Nascent Soul Stage!
No, if you insist on saying so, Li Qing would call it the half-step Nascent Soul stage.
After reaching this stage of his cultivation, the only way he can go is to break through the Podan Ningying.
In the cave, Li Qing slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, his dark pupils looked a little deeper, like an endless abyss.
“I took a total of thirty-two soul nourishing pills, which is within my expectation.”
Li Qing’s voice did not contain a trace of emotion, and there was not even a hint of joy. I just feel that all this is natural and is just a matter of course.
"Nascent Soul Stage"
How to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?
Although he has average spiritual qualifications, he has an extremely firm heart towards the Tao.
Otherwise, I would not have reached this stage of cultivation.
Now that he has completed the entire Dan Formation stage, it is natural for him to consider looking forward to breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. But on the road to spiritual practice, breaking through the realm is not as simple as eating and drinking water, and it is not just talk.
Once you fail to pass the level, you will basically die.
The more advanced his cultivation is now, the more Li Qing understands how bumpy and difficult the road of cultivation is. How many amazing and talented people in ancient and modern times have ended up before the Nascent Soul stage with hatred?
“The Dragon Transformation Pill, even this heaven-defying great pill, can only help a little bit.”
“In addition, the statue transformed into an exquisite immortal fetus. The exquisite fairy sound contained in the stone fetus may have a higher chance of success."
"After that, you can only rely on yourself."
It is already quite difficult. You must know that looking at the entire world of cultivating immortals, there is almost no method that can increase the success rate of condensation.
Over the years, only Hualong Pill, a pill that has been handed down from ancient times, can have some effect.
But if you want to refine the Dragon Transformation Pill, this pill recipe is indispensable.
In addition, the main ingredient of Dragon Transformation Pill is Dragon Blood Vine, which is thousands of years old. This is not a common thing.
It is rumored that this elixir is only found among some Jedi, and the conditions for its birth are extremely harsh. It is even said that it can only grow if it is contaminated with the essence and blood of a true dragon.
As for how Yang Tianren of the Shangqing Sect obtained the Dragon Blood Vine before, no one knows.
Now that Dragon Blood Vine has fallen into the hands of Lingyun Sect, Li Qing will undoubtedly refine it into Dragon Transformation Pill.
After carefully comprehending his current situation for a while, Li Qing made sure that his breath had stabilized, and he exhaled a breath of turbid breath again.
“Huh!”
“Senior Bai Ling, I would like to know what should I pay attention to when breaking through the Nascent Soul stage?”
Yes, this time Li Qing asked directly. With a person who has experienced this realm by his side, he naturally wanted to ask more about this person.
In this regard, Bailing Daojun did not hesitate to give advice. To him, these experiences were nothing:
"Haha, first of all, we must have a solid foundation. I think you have done this. It’s not bad. Although I have used external objects to improve my cultivation, my foundation is quite solid.”
“The second thing is to find a place where no one will disturb me. I think about my breakthrough in the Demon Realm. When I was in the Nascent Soul stage, there were several peerless demon kings who were chasing me all over the world. At that time, I was almost tracked down by one demon king."
"Fortunately, I set up a concealment effect. I used the formation to escape the disaster, and later I caused the disaster, even if those demon kings found out, it would be of no avail.”
Daojun Bailing talked about some of the past events he had experienced in an understated manner. Even though his tone was so bland, Li Qing could still feel how thrilling Daojun Bailing's experience was at that time.
If it were written down, it would definitely be a magnificent legendary experience.
Similar to the transformation of monsters and beasts, human monks also need to go through a catastrophe when they break through the Nascent Soul stage.
Of course, most people will only survive one inner demon tribulation.
But for some monks with extraordinary talents and amazing talents, it will also cause a thunder disaster.
Only by surviving the thunder tribulation and the inner demon tribulation can we successfully achieve the Nascent Soul stage!
It is rumored that this is because some of Heaven's favored people have too amazing qualifications and have aroused Heaven's jealousy, so they need to go through thunder tribulation.
As for the exact reason, it is unknown. It can only be said that as long as those who practice Taoism walk on this path, they are going against heaven.
"The last thing is the state of mind. I have to say that the inner demon tribulation is indeed very fatal."
"This is the most important point in my opinion, because when you overcome the inner demon tribulation, You will lose your self-awareness and be completely unaware that you are going through a tribulation.”
"It's like the dust on the spiritual altar has obscured all memories. You will automatically regard the fantasies you had during the inner demon tribulation as real!"
"If you have a defective state of mind, then this level will be difficult. Breaking through, even if you are in a good state of mind, you may fall into the inner demon tribulation."
"Nearly half of the monks who failed to overcome the inner demon tribulation should have problems during the inner demon tribulation."
Hearing Taojun Bailing’s words of experience, Li Qing’s face became a little more solemn.
Inner Demon!
Since he set out on the road, he has done everything with a clear conscience, and should not have any mental problems.
But even so, it may not be possible to overcome the inner demon tribulation 100%!
"Senior Bai Ling, do you have any suggestions about this inner demon tribulation?" Li Qing asked humbly for advice.
Bailing Daojun chuckled, and then said: "My suggestion is to travel around the world, or walk on the same path again, and carefully examine what shortcomings and shortcomings you have in your life. A place with a clear conscience.”
“Sometimes, you think you have a clear conscience in this life, but you really can’t find those shortcomings in your mood without re-examining your life.”
"The living environment in the demon realm was too harsh at the beginning. Before I broke through the Nascent Soul stage, I had never experienced the world of mortals to refine my heart, so I almost had problems with the inner demon calamity."
"In short, traveling in the world There is nothing wrong with tempering one's own state of mind and replenishing it to perfection."
That's all Bailing Daojun said, and that's all the advice he can give.
What to do next and how to examine his own state of mind depends on Li Qing himself.
“Look at what shortcomings you have in your life?”
"There are some shortcomings that you are not even aware of? This inner demon calamity is really mysterious."
Li Qing whispered, falling into deep contemplation.
He asked himself that he must practice what he said. Years of experience in cultivating Taoism had already made his heart extremely determined. There should be no external events that would cause him to have fluctuations in his mood.
But is it really so?
Are there some things that he has subconsciously ignored, that even he himself cannot detect or realize?
At this moment, Li Qing finally lost his confidence.
"Retravel the way we came?"
Li Qing took a deep breath and felt that it was indeed necessary to do this.
"It seems that this matter should not be taken too lightly."
Originally, he relied on the help of Linglong Fairy Sound, so he never regarded this inner demon tribulation as too important.
Because Linglong Xianyin can help people clear away distracting thoughts in their minds, this is why many people said that Linglong Zhenren, who possesses a Linglong treasure body and heavenly spiritual roots, is very likely to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
With the Tianling Root, she can practice all the way to the Dan Formation Stage without encountering bottlenecks. When she breaks through the Nascent Soul Stage in the future, with the help of Linglong Xianyin, she has a high chance of success.
After Li Qing swallowed the origin of Master Linglong with a stone fetus, he didn't take the inner demon calamity very seriously.
Now with Taojun Bailing's experience, he finally put these thoughts away.
It seems that this inner demon calamity is much more difficult than he imagined!
