Chapter 295: Foundation Building, Success!

After taking the first foundation-building pill, Li Qing concentrated all his energy and practiced the basic fire-attributed "Fire Source Gong" with all his heart and soul.

Unlike any other pills for improving mana that he had taken before, this foundation-building pill did not immediately turn into pure medicinal power to improve Li Qing's cultivation as soon as it entered his throat.

Instead, it slowly sank into his abdomen, constantly emitting a strange energy, impacting the mana in his Dantian Qi Sea, as if it was refining and cleansing.

Rumble!

Li Qing, who had practiced the incomplete secret method of "Zeng Yuan Secret Art", had extremely powerful mana in his body, which was definitely beyond most cultivators of the same level.

At this moment, the foundation-building pill began to refine the mana in his body, just like the sea was churning up huge waves, and there was a faint roar emanating.

The first step of foundation-building is to refine mana!

This step is also called spiritual power purification. Only the purest spiritual power can be liquefied!

If this step is not taken, it will be extremely difficult to liquefy the spiritual power in the body, and it is very likely that the spiritual power will dissipate in the middle of the process, resulting in failure in foundation building.

With the help of the foundation building pill, this step suddenly became quite simple.

Even without Li Qing himself, the mana was being purified on its own.

Along with this process, the medicinal power of the foundation building pill was constantly evaporating, and at the same time, a trace of pure medicinal properties began to flow into the meridians in his body.

This is another function of the foundation building pill, protecting the heart meridian.

If the foundation building fails, the mana will dissipate and flow back to the whole body, impacting the meridians until they are cut off. With this layer of protection, Li Qing will not be seriously injured, and his cultivation will not regress much.

"Sure enough, this is the difference in the spiritual root aptitude of the immortal cultivators. Just to cleanse the spiritual power in the body, it takes the medicinal power of a whole foundation-building pill."

"Although this is related to the strength of my mana, it is too disappointing."

Li Qing sighed in his heart, and then mobilized his mind and began to cleanse his own mana independently, no longer relying solely on the medicinal properties of the foundation-building pill.

Unfortunately, when the mana was almost completely cleansed, the medicinal properties of the foundation-building pill also evaporated.

"It's still a little short. While the protective medicinal power in the meridians is still there, it might as well pass this stage of mana cleansing at once!"

Li Qing thought so, and then he had an idea and accelerated the process of cleaning the mana.

Finally, after the medicinal power of a foundation-building pill completely dissipated, Li Qing slowly opened his eyes and smiled bitterly.

"The first stage of foundation building is really full of difficulties and dangers. Especially for a cultivator like me with average talent for cultivation."

He didn't even have time to try the step of liquefying mana, and the medicinal properties of a foundation building pill dissipated.

Slowly putting away the expression on his face, Li Qing's face became focused again.

It doesn't matter, continue, he still has five foundation building pills!

He didn't think that he could successfully build a foundation with just one foundation building pill. After so many years of preparation, he had some expectations for this situation!

Soon, he took out the foundation building pill from the white jade porcelain bottle again!

Boom!

This time, Li Qing became familiar with it. The medicinal power of the foundation building pill just began to dissipate. Because the mana had been purified and refined, the first stage went very smoothly!

It took only about ten breaths for the mana to be purified. The second stage, mana liquefaction!

This level is extremely dangerous, because in this process, not only does the mana in the body need to be liquefied, but the cultivator also needs to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at the same time.

After all, the mana of the Qi Refining Stage was only strong before. Even if it was fully liquefied, it was far less than the mana that a normal foundation-building cultivator could possess!

Most people fell at this level and failed to persevere completely.

Let's get started! Mana liquefaction!

Li Qing's mind moved, and he began to cooperate with the medicinal power of the foundation-building pill to autonomously compress the mana in his body!

At this moment, a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth also gathered towards him, gradually forming a spiritual energy vortex, and madly absorbed it into his body.

Boom!

The sudden breath fluctuations awakened several disciples living near Li Qing.

"Huh? This kind of fluctuation. Is anyone trying to build a foundation?"

Soon someone walked out of the courtyard, looking at the source of the breath fluctuations with doubtful eyes, and finally locked on the courtyard where Li Qing lived.

"It's Li Qing. He actually tried to build a foundation at this time. How sudden!"

"He has a foundation-building pill. Isn't it the same when he builds a foundation?"

"Look at this aura. It seems a little unstable. Can it succeed?"

"I think it's difficult. Didn't so many immortal seedlings fail to build a foundation during the day? With his four spiritual roots, it's like ascending to heaven for him to succeed in building a foundation."

"."

As Li Qing's foundation-building aura spread, some disciples who had more free time couldn't help but pass on the news.

"What? The four spiritual roots disciple who got the Ascension Order actually tried to build a foundation at this time?"

"What a fantasy. Did he think that there were more immortal seedlings that failed during the day and thought he could succeed."

"What a pity. I thought he didn't dare to take the foundation-building pill. I wanted to spend some money to buy the foundation-building pill from him."

"."

In a courtyard near the center of Xiyun Pavilion, Zheng Donghe, who had just learned the news, had a gloomy face almost instantly, full of black lines.

Bang!

"Damn it! This ungrateful fellow actually took the foundation-building pill."

Zheng Donghe was extremely angry. Earlier, when he learned that someone had obtained a foundation-building pill through the Ascension Order, and that the disciple was a four-spiritual-root cultivator, he was almost ecstatic and directly regarded the foundation-building pill as his own.

However, who could have known that this disciple who entered the sect through the Ascension Order, although his qualifications were poor, he was not without background. He actually had a close relationship with the famous Elder Wu in the sect.

"If you dare to touch my foundation-building pill, you'd better succeed in building the foundation, otherwise, you will have a hard time in the future, otherwise I will have to put you into the most difficult sect affairs."

Zheng Donghe was so angry that his nose was about to burst into fire. He originally planned to go to Li Qing again after tonight.

Unfortunately, everything was in vain.

In Lingyun Sect, the news about Li Qing building the foundation in the middle of the night was spreading more and more widely, and even some disciples who were preparing to practice came out of retreat to watch this excitement.

The gaze returned to Li Qing's courtyard again. At this time, the liquefaction of mana had reached a critical period.

Wu Chong, who was guarding next to him, became nervous, even more nervous than when he was building his foundation.

"I have three spiritual roots. It took me two foundation-building pills to build my foundation successfully. Li Qing, you have to hold on." Wu Chong said nervously, and he didn't even continue to stuff food into his mouth.

It's broken!

Li Qing's heart sank slightly. He felt that the medicinal power of the foundation-building pill was about to evaporate, and the liquefaction of mana was not yet completed!

Normal cultivators, at this point, have to face two choices.

Either end the foundation-building, with the support of the remaining medicinal power of the foundation-building pill, even if it fails, the liquefied mana starts to flow back to the whole body, and it will not suffer much damage.

Or continue to move forward, even if there is no medicinal power to support, you must continue to build your foundation in one go. In this case, it is one step to heaven and one step to hell!

And Li Qing is naturally not a normal cultivator.

His throat moved, as if he had swallowed something!

"Gulp~"

It was the third foundation-building pill!

Yes, that's right. Li Qing swallowed two foundation-building pills in his mouth in one breath, but he swallowed one and kept the other in his mouth, using his internal force to make it stick to the palate so that it would not start to dissipate the medicinal power too early.

With the continuation of this foundation-building pill, Li Qing continued to compress the mana in his body without any scruples.

The pure and rich mana continued to collapse, and a large amount of spiritual energy between heaven and earth poured into his body, sank into the dantian along the meridians, and continued to be compressed and collapsed, turning into liquid mana.

In this process, Li Qing's body was constantly cleansed by the spiritual energy. This was a rebirth from the inside out.

With such a change, his practice will be much smoother in the future, and he will be much more friendly to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is no less than a hair removal and marrow washing.

After a long time, Li Qing's breath suddenly rose after absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth!

Mana liquefaction, completed!

The most critical step, completed!

A drop of cold sweat dripped on Li Qing's forehead. He did not relax his vigilance, but continued to concentrate.

Although the next step is not as difficult as the second step, it is also quite critical. In the world of cultivating immortals, some people relax their vigilance here, and their state of mind fluctuates, which eventually leads to the failure of foundation building.

The third level, Dantian accommodates mana and completely builds its own foundation!

In order to be safe, Li Qing took out another foundation building pill from the storage bag. This is an inferior foundation building pill, with slightly inferior medicinal power, but it also has the same effect.

He did not think of saving the foundation building pill and using it to exchange for cultivation resources in the future. Since he did it, he would do it the best and most perfectly!

Gulu!

The fourth foundation building pill was swallowed!

The foundation building continued, and the medicinal power continued instantly.

A large amount of completely liquefied mana began to slowly sink into the dantian. Li Qing was fully focused and did not dare to relax for a moment. He carefully protected it, just like coaxing a baby.

Under the protection of the foundation-building pill, there was almost no obstacle, and these liquefied mana was absorbed into his dantian.

He endured it!

Boom!

At this moment, Li Qing's breath that had just risen began to condense.

Qi, blood, mana, and soul seemed to be combined together, and it actually produced a moment of sublimation!

The fourth step, which is the last step, is the unity of spirit, spirit, and soul!

There is no difficulty or bottleneck at all. His soul is equivalent to a cultivator in the foundation-building period, and his physical body is even more needless to say. The physique of a master in the world has its advantages.

Compared with the previous three levels, this is almost the easiest one.

Swish!

When Li Qing opened his eyes, two sword-like lights flashed out.

At this moment, his spirit and energy reached the peak of his life.

It's done! He has achieved the foundation!

After confirming this fact, Li Qing couldn't help but raise his head and roar:

"Roar!"

After the roar, he couldn't stop the joy on his face. He had been calm for so many days, and finally his mood fluctuated violently again!

"Hahahaha, I finally succeeded!"

A hearty laugh fell, and Li Qing was extremely happy and restrained his breath.

Just as he was about to consolidate his cultivation and experience the changes, he heard a respectful congratulation from outside.

"Congratulations to Elder Li Qing for successfully building his foundation!"

Little Li has built his foundation, please vote for me!
