Chapter 205 Purple Air



Although Chijian Peak is not very tall among the mountains, its location is very good, with no tall mountains blocking the line between heaven and earth in the distance.

The red sun jumped out from the ground. In an instant, all the 1,500 Fresnel reflectors on the top of the mountain reflected red light, focusing on Li Shiming.

The purple air that could only be felt when practicing the "Purple Air Coming from the East" technique in his body was manifested on his body due to the effect of 1,500 Fresnel reflectors.

Li Shiming, who was practicing 'Purple Air Coming from the East' to absorb the first ray of purple air born from heaven and earth, felt that purple air was pouring into every pore of his body.

When the Fresnel reflector reflected the sunlight towards him, it was aimed at his entire body, not concentrated on one point.

The purple energy born from heaven and earth can only appear at the moment of its first rise and cannot be absorbed afterwards.

Li Shiming absorbed a large amount of purple energy into his body, and after the purple energy entered his body, it was integrated into every part of his body.

His spirits were lifted and his mind became much clearer, which was a sign of a certain improvement in his spirits.

All aspects of the body have seen a significant improvement, just like a breakthrough in body training.

This is a comprehensive improvement and a successful experiment.

The purple mist reflected by the 1,500 Fresnel reflectors did not achieve an exaggerated effect of 1,500 times, but in his perception, it was at least improved by 100 times.

You should know that in previous experiments, ordinary mirrors cannot reflect purple gas, only Fresnel reflectors can do it.

According to his analysis, it is very likely that the purple air from the rising sun will experience disordered refraction when reflected, and the Fresnel reflector he modified can convert the disordered refraction into a unified reflection direction.

It can be said that his discovery has greatly enhanced the effectiveness of the "Purple Air Coming from the East" technique.

If the Fresnel reflector can be promoted, it may bring about a major change in the entire world of cultivation.

But Li Shiming did not have such an idea. He did not want to change any changes in the world of immortal cultivation. If all cultivators improved themselves in this way, then more cultivators would compete for the limited cultivation resources.

That is not a good thing for the world of immortal cultivation, and Li Shiming is not that great.

In order to prevent the Fresnel reflectors from being discovered by other monks, he even equipped 1,500 Fresnel reflectors with hidden formations and self-destruct devices.

Once the formation on the top of the mountain is forcibly broken, all 1,500 Fresnel reflectors will self-destruct.

A hundred times the purple energy, the purple energy he absorbed in one day is equal to the purple energy absorbed by other cultivators in a hundred days, not to mention the purple energy that he did not have time to absorb, which would bring benefits to his body imperceptibly after dissipating in his body.

After practicing 'Purple Air Coming from the East', he took advantage of the seemingly endless supply of strength in his body to practice 'Vajra Body Protection Magic'.

After taking a sip of the Monkey Spirit Wine, the true meaning of the angry Vajra appeared on his body, and every movement of the 'Vajra Body Protection Magic' in the foundation-building chapter was between movement and stillness.

Clear crisp sounds kept coming from his body. Each sound meant that his bones were being strengthened, and the strengthening of his muscles and skin was also taking place at the same time.

The crisp sound of the bones ended, and then there was the vibrating sound of the tendons and muscles contracting in the body, followed by the sound of the skin like a sledgehammer hitting a drum.

The sound his body makes is a manifestation of his body reaching a certain level.

After such a long period of taking monkey wine to continuously refine his body, coupled with the benefits brought by today's "Purple Air Coming from the East", he finally improved his body refinement to the level of foundation building.

This was nearly a year earlier than he had estimated, which showed how great the benefit of the "Purple Air Coming from the East" was this time.

The energy transformed from the misty purple energy in his body was not completely absorbed by his body while practicing 'Purple Energy Coming from the East', but was converted into the body's special enhanced energy and preserved.

When he was practicing the 'Vajra Body Protection Magical Art', the special enhanced energy that could only be transformed from a hundred days of dense purple energy was consumed as the body-refining technique was practiced.

This promoted the rapid improvement of the 'Vajra Body Protection Magic Skill', allowing him to achieve great success in body refining in a short period of time.

Of course, this does not mean that his body training cannot be improved any further, but that when his body training reaches the highest level, he no longer needs other resources to practice the body training techniques. His body is strengthening towards surpassing the foundation-building stage.

Originally, when he was in the Qi Refining Stage, due to the fact that he had cultivated the true meaning of the 'Vajra Body Protection Magic Art' and used the third-grade metal to practice the 'Sword Demon Secret Book', his physique was almost equivalent to that of an ordinary body refining cultivator in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Now he has made another breakthrough, allowing his physique to reach the level of a body-refining cultivator in the late stage of foundation building.

Li Shiming is only in the initial stage of foundation building. He has plenty of time to improve his physique and continuously improve and strengthen his body through body refining.

After finishing the practice of the 'Vajra Body Protection Magical Skill', his body once again turned into a muscular strong man.

He already had experience in this, and he continued to practice the "Sword Demon Secret Book". His knotted muscles continued to contract and strengthen under the impact of the third-grade metal.

After finishing his practice of the Sword Demon Secret Book, he stood up and felt the changes in his body as he walked.

At this moment, he felt a violent power contained in his body. He stretched out his hand, and the third-grade sword base turned into a long sword in his hand.

The strength brought by body training made him feel that he was confident that he could fight against an ordinary late-stage foundation-building cultivator just by holding a third-grade sword.

When he returned to the cave and began to practice the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art', he discovered an even bigger surprise.

His cultivation speed increased by about 1%. Compared with the 1% increase in cultivation speed when he used Li Yuanba's help to assist in his cultivation during the Qi Refining Stage, this was really nothing.

During the Qi Refining Stage, Li Yuanba assisted him in his practice, which increased his practice speed by nearly two times.

But that was the price paid by consuming the results of Li Yuanba's cultivation. As his clone, Li Yuanba's strength was also an important part of his combat power.

Not to mention that he was also counting on Li Yuanba to advance to the Golden Core stage faster so as to obtain more resources for his cultivation.

Even though his current cultivation speed has only increased by one percent, it means that his cultivation talent is improving.

"Could it be that the effect of absorbing the rising purple air is so good?" Li Shiming couldn't believe the effect of 'Purple Air Coming from the East'.

In fact, there are many such exercises as "Purple Air Coming from the East" in Taoism, but the most important thing to achieve the effect of absorbing purple air is persistence.

But the problem is that when a cultivator practices the main technique, especially when his strength reaches the foundation-building stage, he will be in seclusion for a very long time. Not to mention absorbing the purple energy regularly every day, even his body will not move at all.

In this case, skills like 'Purple Qi Coming from the East' are not very useful. The improvement brought by absorbing purple qi intermittently is not obvious, and it will also delay a lot of time.

Therefore, skills like "Purple Air Coming from the East" are generally practiced by cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. It is not a question of the grade of the skill, but a question of the cultivator's own practice habits.

The next morning, Li Shiming once again mobilized 1,500 Fresnel reflectors and absorbed a hundred times more purple air for the second time.

This time, his physical and mental fitness had improved significantly again, and the speed at which he practiced his main skills had increased by about 1% again.

It seemed that the most inconspicuous "Purple Air Coming from the East" technique was opening a door for him, giving him the opportunity to impact a higher level.

He forgot everything and absorbed the purple air every morning, then practiced the 'Vajra Body Protection Magic' and the 'Sword Demon Secret Book', and spent the rest of his time practicing the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art'.

It was not until more than two months later that he received a message from his master, Elder Su, asking him to go to Tianmu Peak.

"Junior brother, I heard that you have been staying at Chijian Peak and have never left. Why don't you come to pay your respects to the master, or ask the master for advice on problems in cultivation?" At the pavilion on Tianmu Peak, the first thing that Senior Sister Ye Jingxian said when she saw him was to blame.

Li Shiming didn't know where he went wrong. He had never had a master before, and no one had ever guided him.

"Big sister, we seem to have forgotten to tell our little brother to come to Tianmu Peak to pay a visit to the master once a month!" Xu Chuan thought of something and reminded her.

"It seems so!" Ye Jingxian thought about it and nodded. Then she said to Li Shiming, "From now on, come to Tianmu Peak on the first day of every month in the morning. We will pay our respects to the master together and ask the master questions together."

"Got it, Senior Sister!" Li Shiming responded.

"You can't blame us for not informing our junior brother. He went into seclusion to practice as soon as he arrived and didn't even come out to meet us!" Second senior brother Wan Zheng spread his hands.

"Junior brother, you have just broken through, so of course it is most important to stabilize your realm!" Ye Jingxian helped Li Shiming explain, and she continued, "Junior brother, the foundation-building period of cultivation is a long period of time, don't rush for success."

"Yes, you also need to make some friends and communicate more with the former disciples of Elder Jindan. In addition, Elder Ma has invited you, so you should visit him when you are free!" Second Senior Brother Wan Zheng agreed.

As they were talking, Elder Su appeared in the pavilion, and five disciples stepped forward and bowed to him.

"Shiming, if I didn't ask you to come over, would I not be able to see you this year?" Elder Su said, shaking his head helplessly.

"Master, I will adjust my practice time in the future!" Li Shiming replied with his head down.

"Working in isolation is not a good thing. If you have any problems in cultivation, don't explore on your own. Many cultivators go astray because they took the wrong path of cultivation!" Elder Su recognized the hard work of his disciple, and he reminded him with a smile.

"Yes, Master!" Li Shiming felt the master's concern.

"It seems that you are not planning to change your main practice method?" Elder Su asked again.

He had been waiting for Li Shiming's reply regarding his major cultivation technique for some time, but Li Shiming had not replied yet, so he guessed what Li Shiming was thinking.

"Master, when I was practicing the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art', I had a sense of harmony. I felt that I should take the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art' as my main practice!" Li Shiming thought for a while and explained.

"I forgot that you have such great fortune. It seems that the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art' is compatible with your Taoist body!" Elder Su was slightly startled, then he couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.

The biggest reason why he accepted Li Shiming was because Li Shiming had a great fortune.

He actually believed what Li Shiming said about it being consistent with the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art'.

It is extremely rare for the Taoist body to be in harmony with the martial arts. You should know that most cultivators do not have many choices of martial arts.

Even for Elder Su's disciples, they only have one or two chances to choose. One has to know that the major cultivation method is related to a lifetime of practice. If conditions permit, they will mostly choose the sect's inherited cultivation method.

After choosing the sect's inherited martial arts method, although you may not necessarily obtain the supporting resources of the inherited martial arts method, with the experience summarized by the predecessors, at least you can reduce the troubles encountered during the practice.

Of course, choosing to inherit a technique will inevitably lead to competition, and the supporting resources for inheriting a technique are limited. If a large number of cultivators choose to inherit a technique, then the corresponding supporting resources will be lacking.

It was better during the Qi Refining Stage and the early stages of Foundation Building, as the cultivation resources for these two realms were relatively easier to cultivate and were more numerous.

But in the middle and late stages of foundation building, the supporting resources for the inherited techniques become even scarcer, and the sect will focus its resources on disciples with higher talents and greater potential.

Even at the Jindan stage, there is competition among the Jindan elders for the supporting resources for the inherited skills.

Just like Elder Su and Elder Ji, they practice the same inherited technique, and the resources they use to advance to the Nascent Soul stage are the same, but the inherited resources for advancement to the Nascent Soul stage are only enough for one Jindan elder to use.

This is the focus of the conflict between Elder Su and Elder Ji, which is irreconcilable. The sect can only choose one of the two Jindan elders.

Elder Ji went to great lengths to target Elder Su in order to force Elder Su to withdraw from the competition for resources to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

Therefore, Li Shiming's choice of the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Art' has both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that he lacks the cultivation experience of his predecessors, which makes it more difficult for him to achieve the Golden Elixir.

The advantage is in terms of resources. The sect's thunder-attribute resources are easier to apply for, and if you have enough contribution points, you can redeem them at any time.

According to what Elder Su had learned, among the disciples that were being trained as a priority in the sect, there were no disciples who specialized in thunder-related techniques.

"Has your physical training improved again?" Elder Su swept his mind over Li Shiming and asked hesitantly.

"Yes, I got some benefits in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and I succeeded in body refining not long ago!" Li Shiming said without hiding anything.

He also took out the remaining monkey wine and handed it to Elder Su.

After he had achieved great success in body refining, monkey wine no longer had any effect. The remaining monkey wine was enough to supply a foundation-building cultivator from the initial stage of body refining to minor success.

"Fortune, you lack talent, but fortune is really..." Elder Su swept his mind over the monkey wine and sighed again.

Resources like monkey wine are hard to come by and depend entirely on luck.
