Chapter 110 About to break through

During the subsequent training, Lin Yi discovered that the difficulty of improving the tenth level of Qi refining was twice as difficult as that of the ninth level.

When practicing at the ninth level of Qi refining, you only need to refine and compress the spiritual energy. Now, after absorbing the spiritual energy, you first need to compress and refine it, and then enter the tenth level of the road to compress it twice, making it almost liquefied.

This liquefaction time is almost equal to the total operation time of the meridians opened on the previous nine levels.

After he broke through the ninth level, it took him about a year and a half to cultivate to perfection.

As long as the conditions and cultivation plan remained unchanged, it was estimated that it would take about three years for him to reach the tenth level of perfection.

Therefore, before breaking through to foundation building, there should be no slacking off at all, or any accident should take up too much time.

Otherwise, it is very likely that you will not be able to break through to the foundation building before entering the Alchemy Secret Realm.

Of course, compared to when he was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, he now has an additional title effect bonus.

After relying on the power of creation to successfully evolve and break through the tenth level, he received the passive title of "Perfect Creation".

This title can increase the training speed by 50% when practicing the art of creation, which can shorten the time by almost several months.

In this case, if you practice to the true perfection of Qi refining, you will still have more than half a year to break through and build the foundation.

And in the coming time, he will also increase the priority level of practicing the Creation Kung Fu to the highest level.

The most important thing is to shorten some time for the cultivation of farming spells, the Five Thunder Curse, and the practice of alchemy. It is most important to reach the foundation building quickly.

Because after he reaches the foundation building, he still has to leave some time to practice sword control. If he does not control the sword after building the foundation, he is just a large Qi refining monk.

Sword control is not just about allowing people to stand on the sword and fly. It can also kill enemies from a distance and perform sword skills, which are much faster and more lethal than spells.

Of course, the most important thing is to be handsome. It is because there are too many immortal cultivators who use swords as weapons, so this magic is called sword control.

Just like Jin Jian Zhenren, a golden sword is invincible in the realm of golden elixir. It's not that he doesn't know magic, but it's not necessary. If he can kill directly with sword skills, why cast spells for him.

However, Lin Yi felt that while swordsmanship must be practiced, spells cannot be given up. The former requires a sword to be released, while the latter can be released as long as there is spiritual power.

When he was practicing the Five Thunder Curse, he was thinking about whether this high-level thunder spell could be used in conjunction with farming spells such as Cloud and Rain.

No one cares about a farming spell. If there is a five-thunder spell hidden in it, it can inadvertently cause great harm to the enemy.

He had tried it before, but could not integrate it into the farming spell. This may be because the Five Thunder Curse has not yet reached the level of Dzogchen and cannot be completely controlled.

After entering the Inner Sect and starting a long-term practice, Lin Yi discovered why he could only see very few Inner Sect disciples in the Outer Sect and Qingyun City.

This is because many inner disciples are working hard to practice in seclusion and improve their cultivation.

The lifespan of a Qi-refining cultivator is limited. For monks with middle- and lower-grade spiritual roots, if they waste too much time, they may not be able to reach the foundation-building realm when their lifespan comes.

The earlier you build the foundation, the more time you will have for subsequent cultivation. Foundation building is only the first step to becoming a true immortal cultivator. There are also golden elixirs and Yuanying in the future. Every time you advance to a greater realm, it will become more and more difficult.

Lin Yi has long been accustomed to this kind of cultivation life. Seeing his cultivation progressing little by little, he feels a great sense of accomplishment in his heart.

During his training before breaking through to foundation building, he kept a lower profile than before and rarely even left the Jinqiao Peak Cave to avoid wasting too much time.

However, during the Chinese New Year and festivals, he would still go to the Outer Gate's Sinong Hall to get together with Old Man Huang. The old man's health was getting worse and worse, and it was estimated that it would not be long before he could only go to the grave if he wanted to get together again.

Although his alchemy skills are now almost complete, elixirs that can increase life span are not something that a junior alchemist can refine.

Refining Qi Gathering Pills is still not 100% complete, let alone precious elixirs like longevity elixirs that are extremely difficult to refine.

Even if there is a 30% success rate for [Alchemy Novice], if the realm is not satisfied, the corresponding alchemy techniques cannot be used, and it is in vain.

And according to his analysis, this success rate may only work on elementary basic elixirs.

Gradually, two and a half years have passed. With the addition of the title's cultivation speed effect, Lin Yi has cultivated the tenth level of Qi Refining to the Great Perfection. This is the true Great Perfection state of Qi Refining.

At this time, there is only one year left before the second opening of the Alchemy Secret Realm. The competition among Liuyun Sect’s inner sect has begun. Five outstanding disciples will be selected from each of the eleven golden elixir peaks to participate in the sect’s big competition. Compare.

Only the top three disciples can participate in the competition for the quota of the ten sects. The last time the secret realm was opened, because it appeared within the Liuyun Sect, the Liuyun Sect did not participate in the competition for the quota and directly obtained the quota. Eleven places were obtained.

The competition uses a points system. Each participating disciple will compete with twenty-seven disciples from other sects. The winner will gain one point, and the loser will lose one point.

At the same time, in order to prevent some sects from colluding, there are only wins and losses, and there are no draws. In the end, the total points of the three disciples will determine the ranking of each sect.

Therefore, these three disciples must be the best and most powerful disciples in the entire sect. Otherwise, it will only delay the battle and affect the final ranking.

The entire competition will last for three months. This is also to give the participating disciples sufficient rest time to cope with every competition with the most perfect attitude.

Lin Yi did not pay too much attention to the secret realm competition, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his cultivation. After completing the tenth level of Qi refining, he rested for a few days and prepared to sprint with all his strength to break through the foundation building in a short time.

He planned to go to the outer gate to see Old Man Huang. The last time he went, it was the Moon Festival a few months ago, which is equivalent to the Mid-Autumn Festival on earth.

At that time, Old Man Huang's body was almost exhausted. He was stooped and limping when he walked, and his body became very thin.

But the old man still insisted on living at the outer gate and refused to enter the inner gate.

More than a year ago, Old Man Huang was arranged by Sinong Palace to recuperate at home. His monthly spiritual stone salary was paid as usual, and a spiritual farmer was arranged to take care of his daily life, so he could live a retired life.

When they arrived at Old Man Huang's residence, the old man was lying on a chair basking in the sun. Next to him was the outer sect spirit farmer who was responsible for taking care of daily life, about the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Seeing Lin Yi come in, the outer spiritual farmer stood up quickly, cupped his fists and bowed, "Senior Brother Lin, you are here."

"It just so happens that I have finished practicing these days. Let's take a break and come over to take a look." Lin Yi said with a smile.

He walked over and saw Old Man Huang's face with kidney deficiency, and couldn't help joking: "Old Huang, I asked you to go to Xianhuan Pavilion all the time, are you weak now?"  Old Man Huang struggled to get up, smiled and cursed: "Cough , Bah, you are so vain, you have been to the Land of Flowers and Moon continuously for several months, more times than I have been in decades."

However, the voice has become very weak. Even those who are cultivators of immortality will not be able to escape the fate of birth, old age, illness and death as long as they cannot break through the realm before the end of their life span.

Legend has it that only by achieving the position of Immortal Emperor can one live as long as heaven and earth, live forever, and be immortal.

"I went to practice, thinking that like you, I would let the female cultivators from Xianhuan Pavilion take advantage of me to absorb spiritual power." Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Pfft, what kind of cultivation? You are obviously poor, cough..." Old Man Huang couldn't help laughing, and then he coughed violently, spitting out blood.

Lin Yi patted him on the back, "Just chat, why are you so excited?"

Old Man Huang simply calmed down, glanced at Lin Yi with his spiritual eyes, waved his hand and said: "Boy Lin, you can't do this. Two and a half years have passed, and I haven't broken through to the eighth level yet. Before I die, I also plan to build a foundation and take me to heaven."

"Almost, if you persist for a few more years, I will be able to wield a sword and let you fly to the sky." Lin Yi said with a smile. Based on his inference on the bottleneck of foundation building, and with the help of the effect of [Eating a pit and gaining wisdom], he should be able to Breakthrough within a few months.

Breaking through the foundation building at the tenth level of Qi Refining is much easier than breaking through from the ninth level. Going up one step is easy, but crossing two steps is very difficult.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you in the underworld, remember to burn paper for me." Old Man Huang said with a smile.

After chatting with Old Man Huang for a while, Lin Yi left. Before leaving, he gave the spiritual farmer some spiritual stones and asked him to take good care of him and buy some delicious food.

Afterwards, he returned to Jinqiaofeng Cave Mansion, preparing to start a foundation-building breakthrough.

Generally speaking, Qi Refining Dzogchen monks who want to build a foundation will prepare foundation building pills to increase the success rate of foundation building. Some wealthy people will prepare more than ten pills at a time. It is like eating jelly beans. If this pill fails, eat it again. One grain.

However, Lin Yi did not buy any foundation-building pills. He had the opportunity to gain enlightenment. The superimposed effect every six days is very powerful. What's more, even if he really can't break through in the end, he can still enter. A state of small fortune.

Under the protection of the aura of good fortune, one can successfully break through to the foundation building, but pills are, after all, foreign objects, and forced assistance is far less natural than one's own perception.

Since he had to concentrate on making a breakthrough, he once again invited his former senior brother Qiu Shenghai to help take care of the medicine field.

The last time I invited Senior Brother Qiu over, he seemed to be preparing to break through the foundation building, but later I realized the power of creation and evolved into a tenth-level bottleneck. Now, nearly three years later, it's time to prepare for the foundation building again.

Before, Senior Brother Qiu was at the eighth level of cultivation. Two or three years later, he was still at the eighth level. However, judging from the Spring Breeze and Rain Technique he released, he should have reached the level of Dacheng.

Without the help of golden fingers, it can be said that you have worked very hard to reach the state of Dacheng within a few years.

"Junior brother Lin, last time I came here, you broke through the seventh level. Now you are about to break through the eighth level. When you come out, I will call you senior brother." Qiu Shenghai also joked with a smile.

"I borrow the auspicious words from Senior Brother Qiu. Those who are masters come first. Even if I am on the eighth floor, I will still call you Senior Brother." Lin Yi smiled and bowed with his fists, then entered the cave and activated the formation to hide the aura. .

He didn't know if any strange phenomena would occur if he broke through the foundation building, so he planned to leave the barrier when he was about to break through, find a deserted place, and then break through.

However, since he was wearing [Xiao Gou's Generation], even if there were any strange phenomena, he would be suppressed. However, he did not dare to gamble.

There are not many inner disciples living on Jin Qiao Peak. Once a strange phenomenon occurs, you will become the object of suspicion by others. It is better to be cautious and keep everything in mind.

Lin Yi turned on the effect of the Spirit Gathering Formation to the maximum. In terms of the Spirit Gathering Formation in this cave, the collected spiritual energy could barely satisfy the tenth level of Qi refining. If he broke through the foundation building, he would definitely have to change to the cave.

Subsequently, he continued to use almost liquid spiritual power to sprint towards the foundation building bottleneck. His repeated failures also brought opportunities for epiphany, which was still superimposed every six days.

This opportunity for enlightenment made him understand the significance of refining Qi to build a foundation. Compressing and refining spiritual energy into a liquid state was just a side effect.

During the Qi refining stage, you are just a quasi-immortal cultivator, still an ordinary human body, and the foundation building, as the name suggests, is the foundation of the great road, laying the real foundation for the road to immortality.

The dantian of an ordinary human body is naturally not enough, so breaking through the foundation building means breaking through the limits of the human body and changing the dantian so that it can accommodate more spiritual power and the foundation of the avenue.

Because the subsequent realm of foundation building is the golden elixir. How can the dantian of ordinary people accommodate the golden elixir.

He had also seen these principles in some of his predecessors' breakthrough foundation building experiences, but only by deeply understanding them could he understand their meaning.

The spiritual power hitting the Dantian again and again can only make the Dantian shake slightly, but cannot break through to a new level.

Lin Yi is also taking the Qi Gathering Pill to generate more spiritual power and hit the bottleneck.

At this time, he suddenly understood the success rate and effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill. It relied on the powerful power of the medicine to form a huge spiritual energy like a wave and launch a fierce attack on the Dantian.

The higher the grade of the Foundation Establishment Pill, the more powerful the medicine contained in it. This kind of help to force a breakthrough is something that many Foundation Establishment monks cannot abandon.

However, Lin Yi still had no idea of ​​buying the Foundation Building Pill. Without these opportunities for enlightenment, he would not have been able to understand the meaning of the Foundation Building Pill.

Gradually, nearly three months passed. With the help of continuous epiphanies and small fortunes, he felt that the bottleneck of foundation building had been greatly loosened. If he tried it one or two more times, he would be able to successfully restore Dantian. changed.

Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes and decided to go to the inner gate Tianyun Immortal City to break through the foundation building. In Tianyun City, there are also caves for rent. The starting point is a training cave that can satisfy the foundation building monks.

This is also because some Qi refining monks who want to break through the foundation must have sufficient spiritual energy to help them continue to hit the bottleneck.

Therefore, Tianyun Immortal City has also specially opened some caves to provide the monks of Qi Refining Great Perfection with breakthrough cultivation.

Basically, most of the people who rent the cave here are monks who have attained the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and one or two monks will make breakthroughs every day.

In addition, some monks at the seventh or eighth level of Qi refining will also come here to rent caves to practice in order to gain help from the rich spiritual power to achieve breakthroughs.

Therefore, he is not worried that anyone will doubt him after the vision appears.

As for breaking through outside Liuyun Sect, after thinking about it, he felt that it was still too dangerous. When attacking the dantian, it was very dangerous and required full concentration. If someone attacked at this time, he might not be able to react in time.
