Chapter 142 23 Years Old
Since the last time he let the big snake eat a few people, the county government's officers and soldiers have never come to trouble him again.
As for the local Anchang County Magistrate Ding, he is a great man who loves the people like his own children and never harasses the people.
So now Er Gouzi is at ease farming and practicing, no one comes to disturb him, and he lives a happy life.
After nearly a year, his cultivation level has improved one step further, reaching the ninth level of Qi Refining.
After his strength has been further improved, the effect of his taking Pei Yuan Dan has become worse and worse.
He can only refine another batch of Qi Ju Dan to take, and the effect of Qi Ju Dan is much stronger than Pei Yuan Dan.
Especially after the gourd is improved, the effect is stronger, and his cultivation growth is accelerated again.
Now no one disturbs him. Except for checking the fields every day, he doesn't go anywhere, not even to the county town, and concentrates on practicing.
After another year, Er Gouzi is 23 years old, and his cultivation level has finally improved from the ninth level of Qi Refining to the tenth level of Qi Refining.
Originally, for ordinary immortal cultivators, the higher the level of cultivation, the more spiritual energy they need to absorb and consume, and the speed of cultivation progress will naturally slow down.
Many people have been practicing since childhood, and they have endured until they are fifty or sixty years old, but they can only practice to the early and middle stages of Qi Refining, and there is no hope of building a foundation for life. This is the reason.
Everyone in the world can practice, but cultivation requires a lot of resources from the beginning.
The first step eliminated most people. These people can't even eat enough, so how can they practice?
As the level of cultivation increases, the resources required will also increase. Most immortal cultivators will find it difficult to continue and will gradually be eliminated.
As for relying solely on meditation to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this ancient practice method has little effect at present.
Due to the lack of spiritual energy and resources, many evil cultivators have set their sights on their own kind and regarded humans as cultivation resources.
Originally, monsters could also be used as cultivation resources, but most monsters were too strong to be defeated.
Those evil cultivators can only target their weaker kind.
It was only when the Great Zhou Dynasty was established 10,000 years ago and all the sects of the magic sects were wiped out that this unhealthy trend was temporarily stopped.
Otherwise, if humans killed each other to the end, there might not be many people left in the world.
In the end, other races benefited.
In addition to the resources that would block everyone's cultivation, there was another major hurdle, which was the practice.
The Great Zhou Dynasty confiscated the practice and prohibited private teaching. Even if you had resources, you might not be able to exchange for the practice.
Er Gouzi was lucky enough to get the practice resources with the gourd.
At the age of 14, he worshipped Li Banxian as his master and got the practice.
With the large amount of resources cultivated by the gourd, his practice speed has never slowed down.
With resources and practice, I started practicing at the age of 14. I am now 23 years old. It has only taken 9 years to practice to the tenth level of Qi Refining.
At this point, I can finally prepare to build my foundation.
For this reason, he carefully read the foundation-building process of Xu Feng in the jade ruler several times.
Then he asked Chang Ling'er for advice for a long time.
Although Chang Ling'er's intelligence is the same as that of a child, he still has a lot of useful knowledge in his memory.
Chang Ling'er was impatient with his questions, so Er Gouzi took a piece of spirit stone to coax him.
Then he continued to ask, asking tirelessly, trying to ask every detail.
Chang Ling'er was annoyed by the questions and couldn't stand it anymore. In the end, he threw the spirit stone back to Er Gouzi and didn't want it.
In fact, Er Gouzi felt that it was almost done.
After all, it was the first time in his life to build a foundation. He was a little nervous and excited. He didn't have much confidence in his heart, so he asked more questions to feel at ease.
After making sufficient preparations, he finally prepared to build a foundation.
"Yushan, I'm going to practice in seclusion for a while. No one should get close to the stone house. Don't blame me for not reminding you if you lose your life."
"Master, don't worry. Anyone who wants to get close to you will have to step over my body."
After Er Gouzi gave an order, he closed the door of the stone house.
In the past two years, he occasionally studied the book "Thousand Machines" and studied the traps.
The mechanism obtained from the secret room of the historian has been installed around the stone house.
After closing the door of the stone house, Er Gouzi first meditated to calm down. After a long time, he felt that he had reached the best state.
Only then did he take out the foundation-building pill.
After the foundation-building pill was stored in the gourd, its quality was greatly improved, and it must be more effective.
It is said that in ancient times, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was rich, and there were many natural treasures. It was very easy for cultivators at that time to build a foundation.
Just take some thousand-year-old spiritual medicine and wash it, and the foundation will be successfully built like eating and drinking water.
If you are not afraid of violent death, you can even get ten-thousand-year-old spiritual medicine to try the saltiness.
Later, there were more and more cultivators, and the spiritual energy and natural treasures became less and less. The thousand-year-old spiritual medicine could not be found, and it became more and more difficult for cultivators to build a foundation.
I don’t know which genius alchemist actually used only some spiritual medicines that were more than a hundred years old to refine the foundation-building pill to assist the Qi-refining cultivators in building a foundation.
It can also be regarded as a great progress in the world of cultivation.
Er Gouzi stuffed the foundation-building pill into his mouth, stretched his neck, and it slid smoothly into his stomach.
Ligong circulated the true qi in his body according to the method of foundation-building.
When a cultivator breaks through from the Qi training stage to the foundation-building stage, he needs to refine the true qi in the dantian into mana.
Compared with true qi, mana is more refined and concentrated, and has greater power.
At the same time, when building the foundation, the dantian must be opened up to become the sea of dantian.
The sea of dantian is wider and can accommodate and store more mana.
At this time, as the foundation-building pill was refined, a huge spiritual power rose from his abdomen, filling his whole body meridians, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
The true qi in the dantian formed a vortex, which slowly rotated.
The speed of the true qi vortex was getting faster and faster...
Three days later, under the vortex, countless true qi condensed into a drop of transparent liquid.
This drop of liquid was the mana of the foundation-building cultivator, which was condensed dozens or hundreds of times the true qi.
As the vortex continued to rotate, the liquid became larger and larger, and finally dripped from the bottom of the vortex, and at the same time, the dantian shook violently...
