In the cave on the top of Chijian Peak, Li Shiming sat cross-legged with the Yangshen Jue placed between his eyebrows.
It is not an easy task to transform the spiritual thoughts of the foundation-building monks into divine thoughts, and the "Thousand Hammers Divine Forging Art" is the spiritual secret method that enables the foundation-building monks to master divine thoughts in advance.
A spiritual thought appeared in the soul, and the spirit turned into a huge iron hammer, smashing down on the spiritual thought.
The blow from the mental hammer made his whole body tremble. His spiritual consciousness had the functions of all his five senses. The feeling of such a heavy blow to his spiritual consciousness was no less intense than a direct attack on his soul.
He took a long breath, and the Thousand Hammers Divine Forging Technique produced a special energy to replenish the damage to his spiritual thoughts.
After the second blow of the mental hammer, his face turned pale. At this time, a stream of energy came from the Yang Shen Jue, and combined with the special energy produced by the Thousand Hammers Soul Forging Technique, it restored the spiritual thought.
The third blow, the fourth blow, as the mental hammer fell again and again, his whole body was sweating, but his face was filled with excitement.
Because the first time he practiced the 'Thousand Hammers Soul Forging Technique' he endured thirty-six full-force blows from the mental hammer, which was much more than he expected.
According to the description in the 'Thousand Hammers Soul Forging Art', a normal cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage can withstand the gravity of the mental hammer more than twenty times for the first time, which is already an excellent result.
He stopped the heavy blows of his mental hammer and used the Thousand Hammers Divine Forging Technique to recover his consumed spirit.
After his spirit recovered, he started the second round of mental hammer strikes again, tempering his spiritual thoughts.
In the days that followed, he stopped refining pills, and except for practicing 'Purple Qi Coming from the East', he stopped all other practices and practiced 'Thousand Hammers Forging the Gods' almost non-stop.
It means that his spirit is extremely strong, which allows it to be used in this way.
You have to know that among the benefits brought by practicing 'Purple Qi Coming from the East', his spirit has increased to a level beyond the late stage of foundation building. At this time, practicing 'Thousand Hammers Forging God Technique' will naturally progress rapidly.
His spiritual thoughts were undergoing a transformation under this high-frequency training.
"Nine hundred and ninety-nine times!" Li Shiming counted the number of times the mental hammer fell, and the joy in his heart replaced the pain of his spiritual thoughts being hit hard.
He sensed that his spiritual consciousness was about to undergo a drastic change, and his spirit was strengthened again during these days of practicing the 'Thousand Hammers Divine Forging Art'.
"A thousand times!" The final blow of the mental hammer landed, and he felt dazed, and his soul lost the ability to think for a short period of time.
When he woke up, he felt the changes in himself. His brain's thinking speed increased by no less than five times.
This feeling was like a computer's CPU being upgraded. He even felt that this body was not compatible with his brain. The body restricted the brain's operating speed. Otherwise, the brain's thinking speed should have been improved.
This is probably because his soul has been elevated to a level beyond the foundation-building stage, and although his body is strong, it has not transcended the foundation-building stage.
No matter how good the CPU is, it needs to be matched with suitable memory, otherwise it will not be able to perform to its full potential, which is similar to his current situation.
Li Shiming felt a little bit of the Jindan cultivator's feelings. His brain could process large amounts of information quickly and his thinking speed was extremely fast.
This feeling even affected Li Yuanba. Li Yuanba from Senluo Sect was also cheered up. The connection between his original body and his clone became closer, and each of them had a higher degree of freedom in thinking, and they were able to handle affairs more freely.
Li Shiming tried to mobilize his spiritual thoughts, and his spiritual thoughts extended out of his body.
He immediately discovered the difference between divine consciousness and spiritual consciousness. If spiritual consciousness is a tentacle with the five senses of a cultivator, then divine consciousness is a perception network.
In a normal state, spiritual consciousness is a thin mental thread, while in a normal state, divine consciousness is a circular network centered on the body and spreading out around the body.
He mobilized his spiritual sense within his body, and immediately, he could clearly sense everything within the range of his spiritual sense around his body.
The perception effect of divine consciousness is also magnified many times that of spiritual consciousness, which is like the comparison between a 2-megapixel camera lens and a 20-megapixel camera lens.
When he gathered his divine thoughts into a thin line, the strength of his divine thoughts was dozens of times stronger than his spiritual thoughts. He could completely use his divine thoughts to cut through the spiritual thoughts of a foundation-building cultivator, and even directly attack the spirit of a foundation-building cultivator.
Of course, in the absence of secret methods of attacking with spiritual thoughts, it is not a good choice to use spiritual thoughts to attack other cultivators' spirits without any protection.
Once the opponent has a treasure or secret method to protect his spirit, it is very likely that his mind and soul will be traumatized, so very few Jindan cultivators will use their mind to directly fight the enemy.
Li Shiming no longer necessarily needs Master Ma's technique of dividing the mind into thoughts. The Hundred Thoughts and Thousand Returns Technique he obtained before is actually also a method of dividing the mind, but this technique is aimed at spiritual thoughts and needs to be adjusted to target divine thoughts.
"Forget it, I'd better go and learn the 'Spirit Separation and Mind Transformation Technique' from Master Ma. After all, it is a secret technique of spirit separation in the Jindan stage!" He muttered to himself.
The level of 'Hundred Thoughts and Thousands of Recitations' is still too low, and using his knowledge to modify the technique may affect the final effect.
In addition, he not only wants to learn the 'Dividing the Spirit and Transforming the Mind'. After a year, the Red Sun Spirit Fire in his spirit lake has grown a lot. Recently, he has begun to use the Red Sun Spirit Fire to refine pills.
The Red Sun Spirit Fire is extremely convenient, especially in the machine room space. It does not require spiritual carbon. You only need to replenish the Red Sun Spirit Fire with fire attribute spiritual power after refining.
With his current spiritual power reserves, it is more than enough to consume the Red Sun Spirit Fire, and it won't even affect him much.
Li Shiming walked out of the cave, and when he released his spiritual thoughts, the world in his eyes was no longer the same as before.
He was able to sense the spiritual energy in the void and discovered that the floating dust was mixed with pollen and various mixtures.
He tried to control the flying sword with his spiritual power. The Zhonggong Sword was under the control of his spiritual power. The flying sword was controlled by the same spiritual power and spiritual power. It was as if it had a new driver, and it was more agile and faster.
He was familiar with the divine consciousness and had arrived at Danding Peak.
He has the right to enter and exit Danding Peak, and can even go directly into Danding Hall without any permission.
This is a treatment that none of Master Ma’s other disciples have. Master Ma’s disciples do not have spiritual fire, so he trains Li Shiming as his successor.
Originally, Master Ma would accept a closed disciple when his death was approaching, and then pass on his spiritual fire to the closed disciple, which represented the true inheritance.
However, due to the appearance of Li Shiming who possessed the spiritual fire, Master Ma had many options, allowing him to train another alchemy master for the sect.
"Shi Ming, you have cultivated divine consciousness!" Master Ma's voice came as soon as he entered the Dan Ding Hall.
Li Shiming had just cultivated his divine consciousness, which was radiating from his body without any disguise. Any Jindan cultivator could sense it from a distance.
"Master, I can now learn the 'Dividing the Spirit and Transforming the Mind'!" Li Shiming said excitedly.
"You should restrain your spiritual thoughts. If you meet a Jindan elder, he will think that you are spying on him. I will not save you then!" Master Ma waved his hand.
Li Shiming also found that he was too excited. Divine thoughts and spiritual thoughts are actually similar. He did not dare to leave his spiritual thoughts out in the open at will, as it would indeed cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
However, divine consciousness can sense too many things, and is more likely to be misunderstood by cultivators than spiritual consciousness.
"This is the 'Dividing the Spirit and Transforming the Mind' Art. This is my experience in refining elixirs at the same time. These are nine spiritual elixirs. All of them will be deducted from your mission reward!" Master Ma smiled and took out the things he had prepared long ago, put them in a storage bag and threw it to Li Shiming.
During this year, Li Shiming made elixirs every day, and he obtained too many contribution points.
The reason why the sect's alchemy tasks require eight submissions is that the compensation is contribution points, and the contribution points vary depending on the type of elixir.
With his rate of refining five furnaces a day, plus the high quality of the pills he refined, the contribution points he obtained every day were higher than what a normal foundation-building cultivator would obtain in a month.
No wonder Master Ma said that alchemists are rich. For alchemists with high alchemy skills, it can be said that it is extremely easy to obtain wealth.
During this year, Li Shiming did not even consider using the technological means from his previous life to make a profit in the world of immortal cultivation. In fact, the profession of alchemist alone fully met his needs for cultivation.
So when Master Ma said he used contribution points to pay for the skills and spiritual objects, he didn't care at all.
Besides, Master Ma’s experience in alchemy alone is priceless. It is a precious inheritance that countless alchemists would fight to get.
Li Shiming took out the 'Divine Thought Divination Technique' and scanned its contents with his divine thoughts.
He has experience in practicing the 'Art of Hundred Thoughts and Thousand Returns'. The 'Art of Dividing the Mind into Mind' is an advanced version of the 'Art of Hundred Thoughts and Thousand Returns', which is a method of dividing the mind into two parts.
Within the time of an incense stick, he successfully mastered the 'Search to Divide the Spirit and Transform the Mind'.
This was of course due to the fact that he usually did two things at once, with his consciousness divided between his original body and his clone. In addition, the Nine Palace Sword Formation he used further honed his "Hundred Thoughts and Thousands of Reflections".
He did not dare to split his spiritual thoughts into multiple ones, and imitated Master Ma and only split his spiritual thoughts into ten.
This only adds one more distraction than when he mastered the Nine Palace Sword Formation, so the difficulty is not that great.
However, this distraction is completely different from controlling the Nine Palace Sword Formation. Most of the time, the Nine Palace Sword Formation controls the other eight flying swords through the Central Palace Sword.
This time, he actually split his mind into ten separate thoughts that could think and analyze independently. This meant that if his spiritual power allowed, he could control ten independent flying swords at the same time to fight the enemy.
Master Ma looked at Li Shiming with a smile. He was really satisfied with this registered disciple. The only thing he was not satisfied with was that Li Shiming was only his registered disciple.
Li Shiming took out Master Ma's experience of refining pills at the same time. This was mainly for reference. He had simulated it many times in IBMz15. He was confident that he could refine ten furnaces of pills at the same time after dividing his mind.
In this regard, the powerful computing power of IBMz15 can ensure timely data analysis of the ten furnaces of elixirs, providing him with the strongest protection.
In addition, this year's alchemy was not in vain. He had already become very familiar with the processing of second-grade elixirs. He not only refined the "Shushan Hunyuan Pill".
He also refined many kinds of elixirs for the sect in the early stage of foundation building. He mastered almost all the sect's elixir recipes that can be refined by intermediate alchemists, and can ensure that the quality of the refined elixirs is high.
"Master, I will go back and study it. I think I will have to take more alchemy tasks from the sect in the future!" Li Shiming said with a bow.
"How is the cultivation of your spiritual fire going?" Master Ma raised his eyes and asked.
Now that Li Shiming has practiced the secret method he provided to conceal the spiritual fire, he is unable to sense the situation of the Red Sun Spiritual Fire in Li Shiming's body.
"Master, I have been using the Red Sun Spirit Fire to make pills recently. The Red Sun Spirit Fire has reached the middle level of the second grade!" Li Shiming answered truthfully.
Master Ma couldn't help but shook his head. It was too easy to teach such a disciple and there was not much sense of accomplishment.
Li Shiming spent a year and almost reached the limit of a mid-level alchemist. Moreover, due to refining five furnaces of pills every day, his experience accumulation was almost the same as those alchemists who had studied for decades.
This is related to the strength of Li Shiming's spirit. An ordinary alchemist would be mentally exhausted after refining a batch of pills, not to mention refining five batches of pills a day.
Especially since he was refining an initial stage foundation building elixir, which was the highest grade elixir that an intermediate alchemist could refine.
Now that Li Shiming's Red Sun Spirit Fire has reached the middle level of the second grade, Li Shiming has also met the basic conditions for promotion to a senior alchemist.
"After you started learning, I didn't actually teach you much. Today I will officially teach you the 'Shushan Alchemy Classic'. I hope you can be promoted to a senior alchemist as soon as possible. Come with me!" Master Ma thought for a while and said seriously.
He brought Li Shiming to another place on Danding Peak, where tablets of all the alchemy masters of Danding Peak of Shushan Sect were enshrined.
Accepting the inheritance of "Shushan Dan Dian" is equivalent to taking over the inheritance of the master of alchemy.
This is the most fundamental alchemy inheritance of the Shushan Sect. Only alchemists who possess spiritual fire and have the potential to become alchemy masters are qualified to obtain this alchemy inheritance.
Li Shiming bowed respectfully to the alchemy masters of all generations and swore an oath with his soul, only then did he inherit the "Shushan Alchemy Classic".
Master Ma was somewhat relieved. He was so anxious to pass on the "Shushan Alchemy Classic" not only because Li Shiming's conditions were met, but there was another important reason. Li Shiming's high-intensity alchemy was exactly what the sect needed.
At present, thanks to Li Shiming's efforts, there are already a lot of reserves of elixirs for the early stage of foundation building, but there is a huge gap in elixirs for the middle and late stages of foundation building.
If Li Shiming can become a high-level alchemist as soon as possible and ensure that his alchemy level does not decline, it will greatly make up for the sect's lack of elixirs in the middle and late stages of foundation building.
When Li Shiming left the hall, he had a golden jade slip in his hand.
