When he returned to Yichuan, Lin Shan first went to the auction house to have a look.
After dealing with some accumulated treasures that the appraisers could not identify, I went to the center of the city and rented a cave for 30 pieces of spiritual stones per month for two years.
Anyway, now I have a thousand spiritual stones that I got from Zen Master Xingtai, and I don’t feel bad about spending them at all. It’s just so arrogant.
Now that the proprietress of Yanchun Tower has made a two-year agreement with him, he must race against time to practice and strive to break through the foundation before going to the Black Lotus Sect, so that he can escape from the cannon fodder.
Lin Shan stayed in seclusion for a whole year.
…
"It is indeed the most expensive cave in Yichuan. The concentration of spiritual energy is 30 times that of the outside world!"
"It stands to reason that it would take thirty years to reach the final stage of Qi training outside, but it only takes one year here."
"Is this the charm of krypton gold cultivation..."
After opening the long-dusted cave and blowing away the dust around him, Lin Shan felt the unstoppable cultivation in his body and realized that he had truly completed all the paths in the Qi training period and touched the bottleneck of the foundation building period.
The nine levels of Qi training are perfect!
However, the two bottlenecks in the foundation building period and the previous Qi training period are completely different.
The bottleneck in the early and middle stages of Qi training only requires powerful spiritual power to break through, in order to expand the capacity of the Dantian. However, the bottleneck in the foundation building stage not only requires breaking through the Xuanguan acupoints, but also completing the further transformation of spiritual consciousness.
The initial transformation of spiritual consciousness during the Qi training period only makes people's ears and eyesight clear, and at the same time, they can feel and absorb the free spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
However, the transformation of spiritual consciousness in the foundation building period involves the preliminary "union of Qi and Spirit", which lays the foundation for the true refining of Qi and transformation into God in the future.
Why can I enter and exit Qingming, fly with a sword, and even attack with my soul and transmit my voice during the foundation building stage?
It is because the spiritual consciousness has the control power to be used flexibly and can be freely retracted and released.
Therefore, after completing the ninth level of the Qi training stage, the challenges faced by those who want to enter the foundation building stage are extremely difficult. It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of the people in the cultivation world are stuck at this step.
It is not safe for the monks to complete the "union of Qi and Spirit" alone, or with the help of elders. The method recognized in the world of immortality as having the best success rate is "Foundation Building Pill".
"Foundation Building Pill" has three major benefits.
The first benefit is that it has a huge level of spiritual energy to help monks break through barriers.
The second benefit is to assist and increase the success rate of monks breaking through the combination of Qi and Shen.
The third and most important point is that even if you fail to take the Foundation Establishment Pill to pass the test, it will not leave any "dao marks"!
"Dao Mark" is a general term in the world of cultivation, and every realm has a so-called "Dao Mark".
Generally, after a monk fails to break through, "dao marks" will appear, secretly making the next breakthrough more difficult and the bottleneck deeper.
There is only the Foundation Establishment period, which is the first hurdle for monks on the road to immortality, so the "Dao marks" are not particularly heaven-defying and can be eliminated by the "Foundation Establishment Pill".
If it were replaced by the bottleneck of the golden elixir or even the Nascent Soul stage in the future, the "Dao marks" at that time would be basically unsolvable.
Therefore, many old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years can only stagnate in cultivation because they have failed to pass the level many times. It is because there are too many "dao marks" accumulated, completely cutting off the way forward!
But thinking about the "Foundation Building Pill", Lin Shan had a headache.
If not for anything else, first of all, I don’t have that many spiritual stones in my hand.
In last year's large-scale auction, most of the foundation-building pills were first divided up by various sects and cultivation families, leaving only ten pills to give the casual cultivators a chance to break through.
But the problem is, the lowest price for each of the ten Foundation Establishment Pills is 5,000 spirit stones!
Now, after deducting the rent and adding the salary from Yichuan Auction House this year, the total is only 1,500 spiritual stones, not even half of it.
You must know that in the ordinary foundation building stage, regardless of one's own belongings, the liquid value alone is only about two thousand spirit stones. At this stage of Qi training, he is already considered a rich man among his peers.
But in this world, there are always people who are richer than him.
There are rich people every year, and there are so many every year! Expect the price of Foundation Establishment Pill to drop? It’s completely impossible!
The materials needed to refine the Foundation Building Pill are hundreds of years old spiritual flowers and spiritual grass, which can only be cultivated by ancient sects and some special secret realms of heaven and earth.
Therefore, apart from the internal digestion of large sects, only a small amount of Foundation Building Pills are circulated every year, which is not enough for all the forces in the cultivation world to share.
You can't afford it, but some people are trying to buy it just to increase the probability of breaking through the foundation.
After all, as long as you become a foundation-building monk, you can reach heaven in one step.
…
Lin Shan scratched his hair in distress and left the cave first to see if anyone had left any messages for him in the past year.
Don't tell me, there are really a lot of transmission talismans accumulated in the cave. Because they haven't been opened in this year, they are still flying slowly in the living room.
Lin Shan grabbed them one by one and found that most of them were appraisers from the auction house. Because the annual auction was going to start again in two days, there was a backlog of lots that they could not recognize, so they were anxious to wait.
Lin Shan, the chief appraiser, is here to take charge.
Others were a few friends he had met before. For example, Lin Fan sent him a postal letter. After all, Zixiao Sect was a bit far away from here, and the transmission notes could not be passed, so he entrusted some "hyacinths" in the cultivation world, that is, postmen.
Transfer it on your behalf.
The most common complaint in Lin Fan's letter was: Why is he so depressed all day long and wants to go out to hunt for treasures? He feels like he is "holding up" so much now, etc...
Lin Shan looked at it for a long time and didn't quite understand what it meant. What "sustained" him to feel uncomfortable? Is it "luck"? There is too much accumulated in this thing, and he still needs to go out and consume it?
It turns out that the "son of luck" also has troubles?
When Lin Shan thought of this, he felt a little more balanced. Although Lin Fan had no shortage of opportunities to hang on the wall, he also lost a lot of experience.
For example, although he is rich, he has never experienced what it is like to be "poor";
Although he was weak in picking up all kinds of treasures, he no longer had the joy of struggle;
Although he can get something for nothing by lying down, but...well...
Lin Shan could no longer comfort himself, and the more he thought about it, the more bitter he became, so he simply stopped paying too much attention to it.
I opened other letters and found that they were the talisman stall owner and the magic stall owner I met in the stall area before, those two "second generation pseudo-immortals" from a family of cultivators.
These two guys probably sent a group message to all their friends in their address book, saying that "the world of cultivation is not peaceful recently", "the devil is about to start", "please don't go out and run around", "come to me to buy talismans/spells and there are still discounts"
Category.
Lin Shan casually browsed through it but was not interested. He never replied to the group messages in his previous life, not to mention that the postage of Hyacinthus in the cultivation world is ridiculously expensive now. He didn't even have enough spirit stones to buy Foundation Establishment Pills, and he was still returning unreasonable prices here and there.
Short message.
After watching it for a while, I simply went out to the auction house to see what happened at this year's auction.
Although I don’t have enough spirit stones, if there is a Foundation Establishment Pill auction, maybe there will be a chance?
…
As soon as he walked into the door of the auction house, a maid seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, and directly stepped forward to invite him.
"Master Lin, the big boss Zuo Zhenren is enjoying tea in the living room on the fifth floor. He has told the servants that if they see you coming, they must go up and see you."
