Chapter 184 - Foundation Building
Three days passed in a flash.
Lu Xuan came to Qingyun Peak again and entered the quiet courtyard with a peaceful expression.
The three foundation building monks were still on duty in the main hall, and there were several other fellow disciples sitting on the side. From their round and full state, it can be known that they were also practicing Qi perfectly and preparing to break through the foundation building realm.
The three foundation building monks smiled and nodded when they saw Lu Xuan coming in, expressing their good impression.
Lu Xuan saluted from a distance, found a corner to sit down, and closed his eyes to practice in silence.
After a while, the charming female foundation building monk came to the side of the crowd.
"Well, all the outer disciples who are preparing to break through the foundation-building realm in the near future have arrived."
"There are seven people in total, among which three are trying to break through for the first time, three are trying for the second time, and one is trying for the third time."
"According to the sect's rules, the first time, you can get a foundation-building pill for free to break through to the next realm, the second time you can get a foundation-building pill at half price, and after the third time, you need to buy it at full price."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan and others looked at each other, and four of them walked forward and handed different amounts of spirit stones to the charming female cultivator.
He noticed that one of the young men with a stern expression took out at least two thousand spirit stones, presumably the fellow disciple who was trying to break through the foundation-building realm for the third time.
Lu Xuan's heart was filled with a little more respect. The third time of breaking through was not just about spending a lot of spirit stones, but also required great courage and determination.
After failing to break through the foundation, the spiritual energy in the cultivator's body would regress a lot. Although it did not fall to the level of the ninth level of Qi training, it would take a long time to cultivate again to the perfect state that could break through the foundation for the next time.
Not to mention the third time, Lu Xuan could fully imagine how much time and energy this cold-blooded young man had spent to be able to step into Qingyun Peak for the third time. Therefore, he had no contempt in his heart, only full of respect.
"This is your foundation-building pill. Check it first, then enter the power transmission hall, and use the quiet room inside to impact the foundation-building realm."
The female cultivator's spiritual consciousness came to Lu Xuan and the other seven people with seven small jade boxes.
Lu Xuan took the jade box in front of him and opened it gently.
In the middle of the jade box, a pill the size of a longan was lying quietly. There were many spiritual patterns swimming on the surface of the pill, and a faint light spread out. A strong spiritual energy rushed straight into Lu Xuan's sea of consciousness, making every tiny part of his body restless, and he had a great desire for the pill.
"This is the key to breaking through the foundation, the foundation-building pill."
Lu Xuan looked at the pill in the jade box, and his heart was filled with emotion.
The rare pill that a casual cultivator might not get in his entire life can be given away for free here. The difference between the two is too great.
After the seven people confirmed that everything was correct, the charming female cultivator led the way, followed by Lu Xuan and the others, and entered the quiet courtyard.
Going down the stairs, Lu Xuan felt that the spiritual energy around him was becoming more and more dense and pure, much stronger than in his own cave.
"This junior brother looks unfamiliar. Has he just entered the sect? What should I call him?"
Lu Xuan was observing when a handsome young man beside him asked him in a low voice.
"Hello, senior brother. I'm Lu Xuan. I've been in the sect for a while, but I've been cultivating spiritual plants and practicing hard on weekdays, so you may not have many opportunities to see me."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
The handsome young man opened the chatterbox of the other people. Being able to practice to the level of impact foundation building at least shows that he has excellent talent. If he can get to know the other person before he breaks through to the foundation building, he may get an opportunity.
Several people introduced each other's identities. Those who had experience in impact even shared their experiences, which benefited Lu Xuan and the other three newcomers a lot.
After a while, the charming female cultivator led the seven people to the depths of the ground.
The wide corridor was filled with rich and pure spiritual energy. There were dozens of quiet rooms on both sides. The doors were closed. There were mysterious and obscure patterns painted everywhere on the walls, floors, doors, etc.
"Okay, we've reached our destination."
"These quiet rooms are located on a mid-level spiritual vein. Even for foundation-building cultivators, when they enter a quiet room to practice, their cultivation speed will be much faster than normal. When you are in the quiet room to break through the foundation-building realm, you can quickly absorb and restore spiritual energy."
"In addition, all the quiet rooms are located in a large spirit gathering formation. In each quiet room, there is also a strange fragrance that can calm the mind and make you wise, which can further help you break through the foundation-building realm."
"Finally, there is also an inner disciple in the late foundation-building period sitting underground. In case of any accidents, he can take action as quickly as possible to solve them."
"You choose a quiet room by yourself. After recuperating, you can officially break through the foundation-building realm."
"Everything goes well."
After hearing this, Lu Xuan and the other seven adjusted their breathing and saluted each other.
"Let's encourage each other."
"Let's encourage each other."
He glanced at it casually and walked straight to a quiet room that was slightly remote. He
pushed open the door and walked in with a calm expression.
The quiet room was more elegant than Lu Xuan had imagined. There was no extra decoration. There was only a white jade cushion. On the wall opposite the cushion was an incense stick of unknown material.
Wisps of light smoke floated out of the incense sticks, and the smell made Lu Xuan's mind lively and relaxed, with a sense of transcendence.
He came to the white jade cushion and sat cross-legged. He
took out the third-grade foundation-building pill from the jade box and swallowed it in one gulp.
The surging medicinal power rushed out like a wild horse galloping through Lu Xuan's limbs and bones.
Lu Xuan bit his tongue and felt the medicinal power rushing through every muscle and bone in his body. The
medicinal power covered every part of his body, strengthening Lu Xuan's bones, tendons, and internal organs, trying to repair the subtle hidden diseases in his body.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan started from the second level of Qi training, and rarely fought with others, let alone left hidden injuries. In addition, he practiced the two superior body-refining techniques of "Liuli Bone Forging Method" and "Taixu Hualong Pian", so his body was stronger than most Qi-training perfect cultivators.
The surging medicinal power flowed out from his limbs and bones, gathered together, like a dam releasing flood water, and infinite medicinal power rushed to Lu Xuan's Dantian.
A huge amount of spiritual energy rose and fell, and Lu Xuan frantically practiced the "Small Five Elements Gong", trying his best to absorb the infinite medicinal power of the foundation-building pill.
With his body as the center, a spiritual energy vortex quietly formed. In the quiet room, rich spiritual energy gathered rapidly and merged into the spiritual energy vortex.
There seemed to be a slight sound from the chaotic Dantian.
A drop of spiritual liquid dripped from the void above the Dantian and landed in the middle of the Dantian.
The gaseous spiritual energy turned into liquid mana, which also foreshadowed the transition to the foundation-building realm.
One drop, two drops, three drops...
I don't know how long it has been, the amount of spiritual liquid in the Dantian has increased, gathered together, forming a pool of spiritual liquid water, and the mana surged in the pool water, showing the richness of spiritual energy contained in the spiritual liquid.
After waiting for all the gaseous spiritual power to turn into spiritual liquid, the spiritual consciousness in Lu Xuan's sea of consciousness soared into the sky, left his body, and then returned to his body.
It merged with the spiritual liquid in the Dantian, and in the dark, there was a sense of clearing the clouds and seeing the sun, as if entering a new world in an instant.
Lu Xuan had a clear understanding in his heart:
Building the foundation, success.
