Chapter 7: Spirit Crystal
The reason why Feng Ying and the others took such a big risk to capture the Flame Beast this time was for the spirit crystal in the Flame Beast's body. Both the demon beasts in the foundation building period and the cultivators in the foundation building period will have a spirit crystal in their bodies, and foundation building is actually the process of condensing the spirit crystal to achieve true yuan.
The effect of the spirit crystal on the cultivator is extremely large, and it can quickly increase the cultivation of the cultivator. Now, Shen Qian's cultivation is very low, only the cultivation of the fourth layer of the refining period, it can be said that there is not much self-preservation power, so improving the cultivation is the most urgent thing at present.
Looking at the spirit crystal in his hand, Shen Qian did not use it rashly, although the spirit crystal could be taken directly to increase spiritual power, but the effect of this method was extremely poor, and most of the spiritual power had to be lost. Shen Qian knew that this spirit crystal in his hand was not easy to obtain, so he wanted to find the best way to use it.
Walking out of the cave mansion, Shen Qian went straight to the inner gate library.
The library building, one of the important places of the Soul Sect, stores various types of books collected by the ancestors of the Soul Sect, which is one of the reasons why the Soul Sect has stood in the heavens and the earth for thousands of years. Low-level disciples who want to enter the library building must pay a certain amount of spirit stones, and only if they successfully build the foundation can they enjoy free treatment.
The library building has a total of three floors, disciples in the refining period can only read books on the first floor, they can enter the second layer during the foundation building period, and as for the highest third layer, only the elders of the Jiedan period can enter. After paying the fee, Shen Qian came to the first floor of the library building.
Each floor of the library is divided into several sections, so that the different categories of books can be seen at a glance. Shen Qian's goal was clear, and he went straight to the elixir area to find out how to use the spirit crystal.
Throughout the day, Shen Qian stayed on the library building to check what he wanted to find, and finally, the kung fu lived up to the painstaking work, and Shen Qian saw a way to use the spirit crystal on a rather worn book.
"Take the dew of a hundred flowers in the morning, fill a jar, put in the spirit crystal, and then add a blue water pill, and when the spirit crystal is completely transformed into the dew, enter the tank to bathe, and run the exercises in the dew, using the pores of the body as a portal to absorb spiritual power..."
Finding a way, Shen Qian stopped staying in the library building and quickly returned to the cave mansion.
A month later, Shen Qian finally finished preparing the Hundred Flowers Dew Water, and also exchanged it for a Bishui Pill. Can't wait to put the spirit crystal into the dew, and after it melts, Shen Qian sat cross-kneeled in the tank and began to run the Soul Code Refining Period Technique.
A mighty stream of spiritual power continued to pour into Shen Qian's body through the pores of his body, and Shen Qian felt that his meridians were swollen and painful due to the influx of a large amount of spiritual power, and he had a feeling that he was about to crack. Feeling that his body was not enough to withstand so much spiritual power, Shen Qian slowed down the running speed of the exercises, and used spiritual power to constantly forge his body.
The meridians in Shen Qian's body slowly became stronger, so Shen Qian accelerated the running exercises, and then slowed down to moisturize the meridians when the meridians could not withstand it, and so on, half a year passed in a hurry, during this period, Shen Qian practiced continuously, only relying on taking the Gugu Pill for a living.
At this time, the color of the red spiritual water in the tank quickly faded and faded, until there was no color at all, Shen Qian, who was sitting inside, suddenly opened his eyes, the essence in his eyes flickered, and there was a crisp sound in his ears, as if something was broken, and the spiritual power in his body was like a stream that merged into a river, flowing smoothly in his body.
A flash of joy flashed in Shen Qian's eyes, in the past half a year, with the help of the spirit crystal and those three condensing spirit pills, Shen Qian finally broke through to the seventh layer of the refining period. Although the seven layers of the refining period are only one layer away from the sixth layer of the refining period, the difference is great, and entering the seventh layer of the refining period is entering the late stage of refining, at this time, the spiritual power becomes extremely refined, pure and majestic, grand and abnormal, the meridians of the whole body are everywhere, and the spiritual power in the body flows endlessly. The spiritual power in the later stage was also greatly improved, and the strength of the magic weapon was much stronger than that of the cultivators in the middle period.
However, for Shen Qian, what made him most happy was the improvement of mana, in the past, because of the low mana, the Void Shadow learned from the Heavenly Dao Tablet was not practiced, and now that his cultivation has been upgraded to the later stage, I think that Void Shadow should be able to cultivate successfully.
Shen Qian couldn't wait to start running the power of refining space with the Void Crossing Shadow Spirit Technique, and sure enough, the refining speed this time became extremely fast, more than ten times the previous speed.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed, Shen Qian's figure in the cave suddenly disappeared, and the next moment appeared in a place ten meters away, and then disappeared, and appeared somewhere out of nowhere, Shen Qian's figure became erratic, unable to ponder, and the aura around his body was completely restrained, without a trace of leakage.
Shen Qian smiled with satisfaction, the Void Crossing Shadow finally became small, I believe that even if I meet Feng Ying again, I will have the power to fight, and for the first time in his life, Shen Qian is full of pride.
"I haven't gone out for so long, it's time to go out and see." Shen Qian said to himself.
As soon as he walked out of the cave mansion, he saw a figure flashing by, and Shen Qian didn't care about this, which was a common occurrence in the inner gate. But soon, several more figures flashed past Shen Qian, this time, Shen Qian wondered, and secretly said: "I don't know what happened, so many people are rushing in one direction, anyway, it's okay to be idle, I might as well go and take a look." "
Shen Qian followed one of the figures from a distance, and that figure was actually heading in the direction of the inner gate square. This inner gate square is the most lively place in the inner gate, where there are many shops and monks, like a small city.
Coming to the square, Shen Qian grabbed a white-faced monk beside him and asked, "Daoist, I don't know what happened here, why are so many cultivators gathered here?" "
"Have Daoists been practicing penance, and they don't even know about such a big thing." The white-faced monk was obviously surprised that Shen Qian didn't understand the situation.
"I just finished my retreat, I really don't know what happened, and I asked Daoist friends for advice." Shen Qian said.
The white-faced monk heard that Shen Qian had just come out of retreat, and showed a relieved expression, "Every year, the sect sends five inner sect refining period disciples out of the sect to practice, which can not only exercise the mind, but also transmit some information to the sect. Disciples who want to go out can sign up here, and then they will be selected by the elders in the sect. "
Shen Qian is not the first time to hear about the outside world, for a long time, traveling to the outside world is Shen Qian's dream, and when he heard that today he was going to select a candidate for the sect, Shen Qian couldn't help but be moved.
"With so many cultivators only selecting five, the chances are too slim." Shen Qian sighed a little helplessly.
The white-faced monk glanced at Shen Qian and said with a smile: "Yes, we Soul Sect cultivators have lived in these mountains since childhood, bound by the enchantment, and have never seen the vast world outside. Now that there is a chance to excel, the competition must be fierce. Generally speaking, the disciples of the refining period who can come out of the sect are all those who are favored by the uncles and uncles of the foundation building period and accepted as personal disciples, and it is difficult to obtain a place without the recommendation of the uncles and uncles of the foundation period. "
Listening to the white-faced monk's words, Shen Qian's heart couldn't help but sink. Walking out of the Soul Sect can be said to be a dream of Shen Qian, and now he finally has a chance, but he is told that there is basically not much hope, and the feeling in his heart can be imagined.
"Actually, Daoist friends don't have to be depressed," the white-faced monk smiled when he saw Shen Qian's expression.
"Why." Shen Qian asked when he saw that the white-faced monk had something to say.
"Although the practice of monks can hone the mind of a monk, it has some benefits for cultivation, but it also has its disadvantages. The outside world is noisy and complicated, and the rolling red dust has long overwhelmed the light spiritual qi between heaven and earth, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has become thin, and the speed of cultivation in such an environment is far from comparable to that of our sect. The white-faced friar explained patiently.
"If a disciple like us wants to become a sect, is there no way?" Shen Qian was still a little unwilling.
"Unless you can have friendships with some disciples with great origins, such as Feng Ying Feng Fairy, there should be no problem if she is willing to help you." The white-faced monk obviously looked ridiculing Shen Qian.
Listening to the white-faced monk's words, Shen Qian's heart moved, Feng Ying once said that there was something to go to her to help, but whether this was true or false Shen Qian was not sure.
