Chapter 31 Double Cultivation of Life and Foundation Building

Five months later, in Zong Yuezong's Qiong Wuji cave.

Lu Yunze stared at the two blue pills in front of him and remained silent for a while before showing a smile.

With the help of that nameless ancient jade, Lu Yunze's spiritual damage healed faster than he imagined, and he has fully recovered now.

And I don't know if it's because of that ancient jade, Lu Yunze can clearly feel that his spiritual consciousness has become stronger.

This reminded him of his previous assumptions about monks' foundation building.In fact, when Lu Yunze was taken away by Li Wuya in the forbidden tower, he had already realized that his research might have taken a fork in the road.

This is not surprising, after all, researching this kind of thing is a process of constant trial and error, and being able to select the correct one from countless possibilities at once is not called research, but cheating.

The mistakes in Lu Yunze's research direction mainly came from the inertia of scientific thinking in his previous life. The scientific rules of the material world made him subconsciously ignore the existence of divine consciousness when he was doing research on Foundation Establishment.

Thinking about it now, if foundation building is the tempering and upgrading of the dantian and meridians, then why would the spiritual consciousness become stronger along with it?

In order to study this problem, Lu Yunze conducted various tests on himself every day during these five months.

As a result, Lu Yunze discovered that when his spiritual consciousness gradually recovered, although his mana itself would not be affected, his manipulation of mana had undergone obvious changes.

From the beginning when his consciousness was damaged, he could only release simple and brutal magic power, but later he became able to use his fingers again, and even got a step closer.

All of these show the importance of spiritual consciousness to the operation of mana.

But there is no reason for this. The mana is stored in the dantian and travels through the meridians. There is no room for the divine sense to intervene in this process.

This doubt has troubled Lu Yunze for more than two months, and he didn't realize it until recently when he was practicing kung fu.At the same time, it also solved a question that had troubled him for many years.

What is consciousness?
Lu Yunze believes that spiritual consciousness is just an appearance, and primordial spirit is the key!
When cultivators practice qi, there will be obvious differences when they reach the fourth level. The five senses become more sensitive, the reaction speed is accelerated, the memory ability is improved to the level of photographic memory, and even a little bit of intelligence is improved.

If you continue to practice, the monk will start to have the so-called spiritual consciousness, which can scan a small distance around him like a radar, and can attach the spiritual consciousness to the magic weapon for command and control.

After the foundation is established, the monk's spiritual consciousness can be so strong that he can use the method of distraction, attaching a magic weapon such as a puppet to manipulate.

In this process, the superficially powerful one is the divine consciousness, but in fact the powerful one is the primordial spirit.

The proof is that when Li Wuya took away Lu Yunze at the early stage of foundation establishment, although Lu Yunze's cultivation was only at the peak of Qi refining, his Yuanshen was not inferior to him at all.

The fundamental reason is that he was a human being in the second life, and on the surface it is reflected in the strength of his spiritual consciousness.

Lu Yunze believed that whether it was the astonishing changes at the fourth level of refining qi or the consciousness that emerged later, their essence was a manifestation of a powerful primordial spirit.

The Yuanshen is the consciousness, the soul, and the commander responsible for mobilizing mana in the process of operating mana.

Therefore, the essence of the damaged consciousness is actually the weakness of the primordial spirit.That's why Lu Yunze's mana became so difficult to manipulate.

Thinking about it now, at that time Li Wuya's evil spirit possessed his body to forcibly improve his cultivation. It must have been limited, and he was not comparable to a real foundation-building monk. Otherwise, with Lu Yunze's weak soul at that time, he might not be able to drive him out.

Thinking about this level clearly, Lu Yunze immediately discovered that mana is the same.

Previously, Lu Yunze believed that the strengthening of the dantian meridian, a human organ, was for the purpose of storing more mana.

But in fact, Lu Yunze reversed cause and effect.

It is not because of the mana that the body is strong, but because of the strong body, there is high-quality mana.

In this way, many people probably don't understand it, so to put it another way, what is the physical nature of a monk?Or what is the foundation of a monk?
The answer actually appeared before Lu Yunze's eyes, but he just ignored it before.

It's Jingyuan!Or it can also be called Zhenyuan!
Only with a powerful enough true energy can a monk possess higher-quality dantians and meridians, and be able to transform higher-quality mana.

At this point in the research, the essence of a monk's cultivation is ready to be revealed.

Double Cultivation of Life!

By absorbing spiritual energy and practicing exercises, at the same time strengthen one's true essence and primordial spirit.

Therefore, Zhuji Dan's marrow washing scriptures are not simply strengthening the physical body, but removing the impurities of the monk's true energy!In this way, monks can have higher quality true essence.

At the same time, the change of the primordial spirit is also very important. The process of the liquefaction of the mana of the foundation-builder cultivator is probably not the chemical reaction that Lu Yunze understood before, but the manifestation of mana that can be refined and manipulated with higher purity after the primordial spirit and the essence are both strong. .

"If this is the case...then I probably only need one Foundation Establishment Pill to succeed in foundation establishment." Lu Yunze picked up a blue Foundation Establishment Pill and muttered to himself.

As a human being in the second life, he was born with a strong spiritual consciousness, and his soul was stronger than other monks.

If Lu Yunze's expectations are not bad, besides making it easier for him to build a foundation, this advantage should also lead to his mistake of not discovering the research direction in time.

After all, if Lu Yunze's conclusion is correct, it means that once the quality of mana exceeds the strength of the primordial spirit, he will not be able to move mana freely, and every time he mobilizes mana, it will be as laborious as a small horse-drawn cart.

But Lu Yunze was born with a strong soul, which prevented this kind of thing from happening, but it almost made him go astray.

"Improve the quality of the true essence and the primordial spirit...the primordial spirit doesn't have to worry. My true essence should be much stronger than other monks after deliberately compressing the mana and strengthening the body with pills over the past few years."

"After all, theoretically speaking, the mana that is deliberately compressed is not from normal cultivation, and the mana that is accumulated after it is used up will still change back to its original quality. However, the quality of my mana is constant. This can only show that in these few days The purity of my true energy has really increased a lot due to years of mistakes."

Lu Yunze smiled slightly, opened his mouth to swallow a Foundation Establishment Pill, and began to refine the medicinal power.

If his guess is really correct, then the foundation building this time will only be easier than he imagined.

The power of the foundation-building medicine developed very quickly. After just a few hours, Lu Yunze felt his dantian start to heat up, but his limbs and other places became extremely cold, forming a very distinct hot and cold feeling!

"The whole body's true energy is converging towards the dantian. Sure enough, I wasn't completely wrong before. The quality of the dantian is indeed the key point." Lu Yunze frowned, already prepared in his heart.

Strengthening the body is a very painful thing. After all, there is only one way to intuitively reflect the strength of the true essence on the human body.

Eliminate the old version of the previous organ, and regenerate a new organ that matches the powerful true essence on its basis.

To put it simply, break and then stand!
Sure enough, there was a sharp pain in Lu Yunze's dantian, like seven or eight sharp knives stirring at the same time.Lu Yunze, who kept looking inside, clearly saw that his dantian swelled up strangely, and soon there were bloodstains on the surface, and then new tissues filled up at an extremely fast speed.

This process lasted less than ten breaths of effort, and the scarred dantian was covered with new tissues, which were still growing continuously.

Soon the new tissue will replace the original Dantian tissue and form a brand new Dantian with higher quality.

Before Lu Yunze could fully experience this strange change, the severe pain in his dantian suddenly turned into countless hot streams, which immediately spread all over his body along the meridians, and even penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

"Hmph!" The heat turned into an unbearable itching, as if there were countless ants crawling around all over his body.This made Lu Yunze, who had been prepared for a long time, couldn't help but let out a muffled snort, wishing he could peel off all the flesh and bones from his whole body!

This unbearable itching only lasted for half a quarter of an hour, but it had already given Lu Yunze the idea of ​​suicide.

"I've already raised the purity of my true energy. Those who take the Foundation Establishment Pill directly may not..." Thinking of this, Lu Yunze shuddered.

It was only then that Lu Yunze noticed that his whole body was covered with a sticky gray substance, exuding an indescribable strange smell.

"Is this the impurity of true essence?" Lu Yunze curiously picked up a piece of gray substance from his skin. "It's interesting, let's put it away first."

Lu Yunze rubbed the real essence impurities all over his body into dozens of small gray balls, and put them away solemnly.

At this time, his whole body is warm, it should be that the remaining medicinal power of Zhuji Dan is still exerting its medicinal effect, but...

"That's how the foundation was actually built." Lu Yunze operated the exercises, and the liquid mana surged through the meridians, and finally flowed into the dantian.

Five months after the blood ban trial, Lu Yunze successfully established the foundation.
