Chapter 118: Three Ways to Build a Foundation
Three years, it is not long or short. For ordinary immortal cultivators, they may still be on the spot, but for some geniuses, they are enough to make great progress in their strength, and it is not surprising that they even break through several layers of bottlenecks in a row.
Qin Yan is not a genius, but he works hard and has a steady stream of waste pills, so he practices very quickly. Now he is an immortal cultivator at the ninth level of Qi refining.
That’s right, the peak of Qi Refining!
Don’t underestimate the progress of these two levels. As the saying goes, a slight difference will make you feel a thousand miles away. The more you go to the future, the harder it will be. Among the inner disciples of Luoxue Sect, there are actually many immortal cultivators at the seventh level of Qi refining, but if you want to go further, the difficulty will increase exponentially.
This is why, whether it is Du Rongyu or Li brothers, they tried their best to find the red fruit. On the one hand, if they wanted to enhance their strength, they won the title in the inner sect competition and became the true teaching they had always dreamed of. On the other hand, they understood that the next path to cultivation was not easy to go, so they wanted to use the legendary spiritual medicine to try to get things done.
Unfortunately, the mechanism was too smart, but in the end he lost Qingqing's life.
After three years, Qin Yan's strength has made great progress. Even if he does not transform into a demon, he still has confidence to compete with the true disciples in the Immortal Sect.
Unlike the sharp increase in strength, Qin Yan, as the manager of the aborted Danfang, has now been completely forgotten by the sect and has truly become a little transparent person who is not noticeable.
Of course, he was not dissatisfied with this situation at all, but was quite happy, which was exactly the result he wanted.
After all, the path of immortality is rugged and full of dangers, and the possibility of various accidents is very high. If you attract attention and do something stupid to show off, even if you don’t reveal your secrets, you may be wiped out by some powerful beings that cannot resist.
In short, making money with low profile and quiet voice will definitely benefit without any harm.
And many things have also happened in the past three years.
The most influential one is naturally led by the fall of Cao Menggu, the true legend of Lingyao Valley, which can be said to have caused quite a stir. After all, in the true legend of Immortal Sect, although Cao Menggu is not a powerful existence, he is definitely the most promising one. He was born in a family and his inexplicable fall made Lingyao Valley angry.
It even alarmed an elder of Jindan.
This person was originally planning to accept Cao Menggu as his disciple, but he had not yet established a foundation, so he did not set his name. Now that he is optimistic about the fall of his disciple, he is naturally furious.
Without finding the clue, he even ran to Luoxue Sect and Tianfu Mountain to investigate.
It’s easy to say that Luoxue Sect has a good relationship with Lingyao Valley, and I know that this elder is like a fire, so I don’t have the same knowledge as him and sent him away with kind words.
Of course, no one would suspect Qin Yan, who has a low cultivation level.
However, the relationship between Tianfu Mountain and Lingyao Valley was somewhat inconsistent. The cultivators who participated in that small trade fair were not strong. Only Tianfu Mountain went to two true teachings. Although they were nominally protecting a genius disciple named "Ling'er", after all, they could only join forces to kill Cao Menggu.
So, the Golden Elixir monk from the Spiritual Medicine Valley went there and it was quite a bit of accusation.
If you don’t talk too much, how can you mess with Tianfu Mountain be easy? Your disciple died but came to question me for no reason, is there such a reason in the world?
The sect also had a Jindan elder who came forward to receive him, but the two of them became more and more irritated. In the end, they simply fought and suffered a little injury to each other.
So this small fuse attracted a complete hostility and conflict between the two factions. Although they were finally restrained, the monks in Luoyun Mountain all had a premonition that the storm was about to come and the wind filled the building.
However, as the initiator of all this, Qin Yan did not pay any attention to this matter.
The Jindan monk was a conflict between the two major sects. It was too far away for him. Now he is an immortal cultivator at the ninth level of Qi refining. What he has to do next is to find a way to build the foundation.
To keep a low profile, Qin Yan naturally cannot ask like the elder in the sect, how to build a foundation?
Fortunately, this is not a secret for immortal cultivators. You don’t need to deliberately inquire, you can know it naturally by hearing and seeing.
There are three ways to build the foundation.
First, the foundation building of alchemy.
As the name suggests, it means taking a precious spiritual medicine called the Foundation Establishment Pill, thereby breaking through the bottleneck and advancing to become a foundation-building cultivator.
This is also the most common foundation-building method in the world of immortal cultivation.
More than 90% of the immortals who practice foundation-building stage have successfully built foundations through alchemy.
But you must not think that it is easy to obtain the foundation-building pill. On the contrary, this pill is extremely precious, far from comparable to those Qi Gathering Pills and Marrow Cleansing Pills that enhance magic power, and is completely not on the same level.
The reason is that, first, the spiritual herbs that refine foundation-building pills require a very special environment to grow and are born and nurtured, and those who practice immortals cannot cultivate them.
Secondly, this pill is difficult to refine. Ordinary alchemists have no chance to try it. Only the sects such as Lingyao Valley, which are proficient in alchemy techniques, have the ability to refine foundation-building pills.
This is also why Luoxue Sect has a good relationship with Lingyao Valley, and it is something to ask others for help!
It is said that after Luoxue Sect collected the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, they asked Lingyao Valley to refine them on their behalf, and of course the price was quite high.
Some people may wonder, since the status of Lingyao Valley is so important, why did Tianfu Mountain dare to offend him?
This involves the second foundation-building method in the world of immortal cultivation.
The foundation building of the talisman!
As the name suggests, it uses the power of spiritual talismans to attract heavenly thunder to temper the body, cleanse the marrow and cut bones, and it is said that there is also a chance to successfully build the foundation.
However, this foundation-building method is actually a rare type in the world of immortal cultivation.
First of all, the foundation-building talisman is even more exaggerated than the foundation-building elixir and is not easy to obtain.
Secondly, even if you get it, if you use this method to build the foundation, most monks may not be able to make up their minds. After thinking about it, they are very likely to give up.
The reason is nothing else. Although the success rate of the foundation building of the alchemy is not high, even if it fails, it will at most waste a foundation building pill, which will not have any hidden dangers, and it can even make the magic power more pure and condensed.
But the foundation building of the Talisman Tao is different, it will attract heavenly thunder to temper the body. Simply put, it is equivalent to a small heavenly disaster.
After that, although the world is vast, once you fail, you are very likely to fall under the thunder.
If you fail, you will be successful.
Cultivating immortals is to pursue the path of immortality. Do you think they have any concerns about such a dangerous foundation-building method?
Of course, it is not all dangerous. The ancients said that good and bad luck depend on each other. Because this talisman building can attract heavenly thunder to temper the body, once the foundation is successfully built, it is equivalent to being reborn and its strength will be far superior to that of the same level of immortal cultivators.
For example, Zhang San is an immortal cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining. If he takes the foundation-building pill and successfully builds the foundation, his combat power will be five.
