The moment the sea of divine consciousness was formed, divine consciousness broke out of Shen Lian's body and expanded rapidly.
Outside the cave, all the mountains and plants can be sensed.
The mysterious fluctuations between the flesh and blood caused the five internal organs to resonate, and the mysterious divine power poured into the sea of divine power, pushing the strength of the divine power to six hundred and ten feet in one fell swoop, before returning to calm again.
Shen Lian sat cross-legged in the cave, quietly savoring the mystery after the breakthrough.
Two days later.
Shen Lian's entire aura changed drastically.
From Qi training to foundation building, there is a transformation in the nature of life, and the lifespan is increased to two hundred years in one fell swoop.
This two hundred is the threshold number, which means that as long as the foundation-building cultivator does not encounter a killing calamity, he can easily live past two hundred years old. If his strength is further improved, his lifespan can continue to increase.
At this moment, Shen Lian's spiritual power was fully integrated and he exuded a pressure that came from his fate.
This is also the reason why foundation-building cultivators are superior to Qi-training cultivators. Not to mention the strength, the level of life alone is enough to show it.
Looking inward at Dantian, the spiritual power in Dantian evolved into a small lake, and each strand of spiritual power was dozens of times that of the previous Qi training state.
Shen Lian sensed his sea of divine consciousness.
This place, as small as an inch, is so mysterious. The accumulated power of divine thoughts is stronger and more solid than during the Qi training period.
Six hundred and ten feet.
Before building the foundation, Shen Lian also bought some miscellaneous notes in Black Whale City. Some of them contained descriptions of foundation-building cultivators. Although they might not be so accurate, they could serve as a verification.
Generally speaking, for cultivators who take foundation-building pills to build their foundation, the strength of their spiritual consciousness after their sea of spiritual consciousness is opened up depends on how much spiritual consciousness their physical body nourishes during the breakthrough process.
The normal increase range is between one hundred and two hundred feet.
However, some cultivators, due to various reasons such as old age, physical frailty, and meridian disorder, managed to break through the foundation-building stage and barely opened the sea of divine consciousness, but the damage to their physical bodies made it impossible to generate divine consciousness.
It will result in the divine consciousness not being amplified much, and the strength of the divine consciousness can only be over a hundred feet.
There are quite a few monks who are in this situation.
Among the countless people in the world of immortal cultivation, the only dream of countless immortal cultivators is to become a great foundation-building cultivator, and they dare not even hope for anything else.
As long as I can build the foundation, it doesn’t matter even if my yang energy shrinks, let alone a hundred-foot divine consciousness.
But foundation building is foundation building after all, and the increase may seem small, but with the blessing of the sea of divine consciousness, the solidity of the divine consciousness far exceeds that of the Qi training cultivators. This is one of the reasons why he can easily crush the Qi training cultivators.
When Shen Lian broke through, not only did his flesh and blood resonate, but the five internal organs that he had used to refine so many five-element spiritual objects also resonated, and the spiritual stones he had spent before were not in vain. They also resonated, and only then did they generate more divine power.
The breakthrough from Qi training to foundation building is a major realm breakthrough, and the intensity of the amplification of spiritual thoughts is also high.
In the future, when one breaks through to a small realm during the foundation-building period, the growth rate of spiritual consciousness will be weakened, and it will not be until the time of forming a pill that a large growth rate will appear again.
The strength of his divine consciousness at six hundred feet was already on par with that of cultivators at the fourth or fifth foundation building level.
Shen Lian has just broken through the first level of foundation building.
After successfully advancing to the foundation-building stage, he was not in a hurry to leave.
After practicing the Five Qis to Origin Technique, a wisp of light golden flame emerged from the fingertips and condensed into a small firebird as it jumped.
Although the firebird is small, it is more lifelike than when it released the fire spirit technique before.
Shen Lian clearly sensed that the pressure of the light golden flame had also increased a lot, and its attack power at least exceeded the fourth level of foundation building.
To know how strong it is, you need to find a good Taoist friend to test it.
His fire spirit root was perfected, and by observing the endless flames, he realized the magical power of the Tianyan Fire Realm.
Next, the other four spiritual roots will be perfected. In theory, you can also trace back to the source and observe the corresponding scenes.
"Next time, you must not faint so quickly. You must be prepared to take a few more glances."
Look inside your body and check between your five internal organs.
The five Chaoyuan Qi that were previously condensed in the positions of the five internal organs have all returned to the Dantian and become nourishment for spiritual power.
The Five Qis Converging to the Origin technique belongs to the Golden Elixir stage. In addition to assisting in building the foundation, it also has a 10% chance of forming a golden elixir.
During the Qi training period, one can refine the five elements spiritual objects and condense the five qi of Chaoyuan. When one reaches the foundation building period, one can also refine the second-order five elements spiritual objects.
It’s just that the second-level five-element spiritual item is of a higher level, and the condensed origin will also turn into five-element true liquid like liquid spiritual power.
For Shen Lian, the additional 10% increase in the probability of forming a golden elixir is worth spending a lot of spirit stones to buy the five elements spiritual objects.
After being promoted to the foundation-building stage, the Fire Cloud Sword that I bought before finally came in handy.
The grade of this sword is not high, it is only the lower second grade. Although Shen Lian practiced the Five Elements Kung Fu, his fire spirit power is strong, so it is easy for him to control this sword.
He can also show others that he is a cultivator with fire spiritual roots, and cover up the fact that he is a cultivator with five spiritual roots.
Since he started practicing, he has experienced very few battles. If he really has to use his magic sword to fight, it means that he has used up all his backup and has reached a critical moment.
There are a total of eleven spiritual bans inside the Fire Cloud Sword, along with a spiritual ban magical power, the Fire Cloud Sword Qi.
It took several days to refine the Fire Cloud Sword.
Shen Lian did not take out the Five Elements Mountain. After all, this was the territory of the Hailing Sect. It would be better to refine this magic weapon again in the cave he had opened up.
Seeing Shen Lian finally stop his busy work, Dahei, who was carrying the Tiangang Thunder and Fire Talisman on his back, came over and shook the talisman on his body pitifully.
"Master, have you forgotten something?"
Shen Lian also realized it later. He grabbed his eldest son, took off the talisman, and stuffed a few Soul-Feeding Pills into his mouth as compensation.
"I'll remember your contribution. When I gather all the spiritual medicines in a few days, I'll let you meet your great-grandmother to see if you can inherit more bloodline power."
That being said, Dahei always felt that his master's words sounded a bit ambiguous.
After putting away the Tiangang Thunder and Fire Talisman, Shen Lian took out the alchemy furnace and started to boil water to make tea.
The foundation has been laid, and it was achieved several years ahead of schedule.
Black Whale City is stable and the Sea Spirit Sect is good.
You can stay for a few more days.
After building the foundation, the magic spells practiced before in training Qi were no longer able to keep up, and relying solely on talismans was too simple, so one's own magic practice also had to be improved.
In addition, it is necessary to find a defensive magic weapon.
In addition, after his spiritual power increased greatly, he could now start to arrange the Nine-Nine Heavenly Thunder Talisman Formation, which he was not sure about before.
…
Black Whale City, the northern district of the Four Seas Blessed Land, inside a second-level cave residence.
"Where exactly is it?"
A suppressed and sharp voice sounded in the cave, and the jade box containing the "Five Elements Dao Seeds" was crushed into powder by spiritual power.
The atmosphere in the cave covered by the formation was turbulent.
Pei Huoyu returned to his original face, his eyes full of ferocity, and he no longer had the excitement of discovering the trace of the Five Elements Mountain.
I clearly sensed that it was in Black Whale City, but I just couldn't find it.
Could it be that this person doesn't need to fight, doesn't need to sacrifice magical instruments, and just hides himself like a thief after obtaining the Five Elements Mountain?
"Where the hell are you!"
The big hand held the 'Five Elements Dao Seed', and it exploded in the palm like a bubble.
This 'Five Elements Dao Seed' has been used up again.
"Did they leave Black Whale City?"
“Damn it!”
The aura on his body became more and more boiling, and it kept hitting the tables and chairs in the cave. The surging magic power caused the formation to roar and explode continuously.
Pei Huoyu continued to bombard the formation even though his spiritual power was tearing his robe apart.
After a long time, Pei Huoyu, who was enveloped by the spiritual light of the formation, murmured.
"A clear mind is like water, and clear water is the mind... it is calm and peaceful..."
Suddenly, he shuddered and looked at the furnishings in the cave that were crushed by spiritual power, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"call--"
In an instant, Pei Huoyu came back to his senses and sat down cross-legged again, looking inward at every corner of his body.
Previously in the Nine-Layered Immortal City, he smashed the Flowing Fire Weapon Refining Master to death without a word, and even broke into the Nine Skies Immortal City by force. He only realized it when he was escaping far away afterwards.
His temperament wasn't always this explosive and irritable.
I don’t know when it started, but I began to lose control of my own heart.
Moreover, this violent emotion is occurring more and more frequently.
But after checking my body again and again, I didn't find anything unusual.
It would be a joke if someone told others that a great foundation-building cultivator couldn't control his own mind, but that was the fact.
"Could it be Ziyang..."
Thinking of the Yuanying ancestor, Pei Huoyu couldn't help but shiver all over.
But the Yuanying Ancestor had cast a spell on him, so why would he need to use such a petty trick? He could be crushed to death with just a thought.
"Try again."
Pei Huoyu calmed down and started practicing his skills again, beginning to condense a new 'Five Elements Dao Seed'.
There is no big reason for the division of foundation-building levels. When the author started writing the book, he read several novels about cultivating immortals and saw that some authors used levels one to nine, so he also used this setting.
When you reach the Jindan stage, it will not be the same. At that time, it will be divided into the early, middle and late stages.
