Cultivation of Immortals Starts from the Roots

Chapter 61 Eight Years of Penance
Time flies, spring goes and autumn comes, and eight years of time pass away leisurely.

Eight years, for the secular people, may be a long period of life and death.

But for immortal cultivators who blindly practice hard and pursue the way of heaven, it is particularly short-lived.

Usually, a relatively important retreat will take ten or eight years to say the least.

On this day, in the retreat cave on the back mountain of Tianxing Peak.

A few qi training disciples who had just left the customs, with regretful faces, asked a monk who also had a depressed face and a bearded face——

"Senior brother Qian, what's the matter? Even you failed to build the foundation?"

A fat-cheeked monk with a tuft of mole hair on his left face had a look of surprise in his eyes.

It seemed that he couldn't believe that with the latter's double spiritual root aptitude and the addition of the three yang body, he would fail in foundation building just like himself.

"Sigh, don't mention it. At the beginning, the progress was smooth. With the help of Jidan, the gaseous mana in the dantian was compressed to half.

However, when he was about to succeed in building the foundation, he actually lost his mind because of the momentary pleasure.

The mana, which had been liquefied by half, suddenly went into a riot. If it hadn't been restrained by the remaining medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, the rioting mana had been contained in time.

At this time, my realm must have plummeted, and I may even fall on the spot. "

"In this way, nearly 30 years of hard work have come to nothing."

When the horse-faced monk talked about his foundation building process, his head was like a rattle.

From his sighing tone, it can be heard that this person is very distressed about his failure in foundation building, and even has a hint of despair.

"Ugh…"

Hearing this, Mole Hairy Cultivator was also deeply moved. After sighing, he continued:
"Over the past few years, Senior Brother Li, me, and Senior Brother Qian have all fallen in front of the foundation establishment threshold one after another, thinking about how old we are.

After this failure, if there is no great opportunity in this life, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to have another chance to build a foundation. Oh, I hate the heavens for being unfair! "

The mole-haired monk seemed to be exaggerated by the other party's powerless frustration, and he was in an extremely bad mood.

At the end of the talk, there was a hint of ferocity on his face, as if he was cursing God in his heart, looking very resentful.

"Forget it, keep working hard next time, as long as we don't die, we still have a chance..."

The monk surnamed Li, who was silent for a while, spoke just the right words to comfort the two.

"Ugh…"

The crowd sighed again

Cultivating immortals is originally a kind of drudgery that goes against the sky, and of course I know every hardship and suffering best.

When you still don't get the rewards you deserve after all your hard work and painstaking efforts, it's inevitable that some thoughts of blaming others will arise in your heart.

Foundation building, this watershed like a natural moat, has blocked many ambitious people.

Even with the help of Foundation Establishment Pill, out of ten people who can successfully establish a foundation, one or two are considered pretty good.

However, it is this one out of ten opportunity that has attracted countless monks to flock to it.

As long as there is a slight chance to hit the foundation building stage, even if it is extremely slim, no one will be willing to give up hope.

Because once you successfully enter the foundation building period, you will not only truly enter the ranks of cultivating immortals.

The strength and life expectancy have greatly increased, and even the status and treatment in the sect will undergo earth-shaking changes.

However, the reality is always extremely cruel. The so-called hope is greater, the greater the disappointment.

In addition to personal aptitude and great perseverance, the illusory luck is also very important.

Therefore, there are only a few who can successfully build a foundation, and most of them are half-mortals who have lived their lives in depression.

Just when these few people sighed and felt sorry for each other.

The nearby aura suddenly fluctuated violently, and after a little sensing, one would find that the rich aura was strangely gathering in one direction.

Although this incident made everyone stop talking, they were not too surprised.

Because this kind of thing is very familiar to everyone, and many people have even experienced it personally.

That's right, someone is in a critical period of breakthrough.

"Senior Brother Qian, look quickly, someone is building a foundation again!"

The mole-haired monk's eyes were quick and his mouth was quick, and he screamed out immediately.

"Huh? Isn't that right?"

"The concentration of spiritual energy in this world is actually so strong that it obviously surpasses the ordinary vision of foundation establishment.

The dantian of an ordinary monk simply cannot accommodate such a huge spiritual energy. Could it be that this person has practiced a powerful technique during the Qi training period? "

The well-informed monk surnamed Qian immediately noticed something was wrong.

Before the words were finished, what happened next really surprised the onlookers.

The huge spiritual energy that originally gathered in one place actually piled up and became thicker. Under everyone's dumbfounded, a large misty spiritual cloud gradually formed.

"This... this is incredible!"

"Do you know who is building the foundation here? It actually caused such a strange vision of heaven and earth!"

"Yeah, yeah, hello? Do you know who's in here?"

"This... I seem to have seen it before. It should be the current head of the Spirit Talisman Hall, Xue Leng, Master Xue...uncle."

"Xue Leng? I seem to have heard of this name... Could it be the one who was as famous as Master Tang? No wonder, no wonder..."

Just when everyone was discussing, the spiritual cloud in the sky unexpectedly changed again.

It seems that after exhausting all the spiritual energy, the spiritual cloud suddenly became extremely dark, covering half of the hill, and the various visions changed so quickly that it was overwhelming.

"Senior Brother Qian, what's going on here?"

Cultivator Mole Hair looked confused, so he could only tilt his head and ask the well-informed Cultivator surnamed Qian beside him.

And the latter was frowning at this time, staring intently at the vision in front of him, with a pensive look on his face.

After pondering for a while, he shook his head with a look of regret and said to the monk with a mole hair and round face:

"Cultivators of immortals are going against the sky, they pay attention to pure mind and calmness, and abandon the seven emotions and six desires.

If it is not handled well, it is easy to form a big inner demon at the critical moment of advancement, which will hinder the monk's advancement, at least it will fall to the realm, and in severe cases, the mind may be damaged. "

"Look at the black cloud in front of you, it's abnormally thick, and it's getting worse gradually.

Presumably this Junior Brother Xue must be a...uh...gentleman, that's why he was punished by God. "

"So, it's a pity..."

"What? Brother, what do you mean, he will also fail in foundation establishment?"

The mole-haired round-faced monk is naturally full of disbelief.

"Well, that's exactly it..." Hearing this, the monk surnamed Qian shook his head with a complicated expression.

　I forgot to change the lifespan, add 100 years in the early stage of foundation establishment, which is 203 years old.

　　At the peak of foundation building, without disease and pain, if you practice longevity skills and recuperate your body and mind, you can live up to 250 years
