Chapter 11: Health and longevity, master-level skills
"But this inheritance has been going on for eight or nine months, and there is still no result. It's a bit strange?"
"Haha, brother Chu, you don't know this."
"Oh, could it be that Brother Ning has some gossip?"
Wei Zhong poured him a glass of wine and asked.
"Although there are multiple copies of the inheritance this time, each copy has two items, one is the inheritance secret key, and the other is a jade slip of the practice method, which contains a method called "Blood Body Method".
This method is a method for cultivating an external incarnation. The difficulty of cultivation is so great that it has stopped a large number of cultivators.
It is said that if this method has not reached a certain level, even if you hold the secret key, there will be no possibility of obtaining the inheritance."
"Shh! I didn't expect there is such a trick in it."
Wei Zhong thought of the jade slip of the practice method he had buried, and he didn't know if anyone had discovered it.
At the same time, he also became a little curious about this method. In order to avoid disaster that day, he didn't even have time to check the method. What kind of strict method is it that can stop so many cultivators?
"Haha, you and I are just having fun with this rumor. Because of this method, a large number of cultivators died in Hanzhu City. The method of Yuanying is a disaster, not a blessing, for cultivators like us."
"Brother Ning, that makes sense."
The two clinked glasses.
On the way home, Wei Zhong was thinking.
'This inheritance of the True Lord of the Blood Sea has indeed caused a stir in the world of cultivation, just as I expected. It was the right choice for me to abandon this method at the beginning. '
But whether to take it back in the future, Wei Zhong was in hesitation.
As his cultivation deepened and he understood more about the road of cultivation, Wei Zhong became more and more aware of the preciousness of the method of incarnation.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this method is to create another self, which can be said to give cultivators an extra life.
While thinking, he had returned to the small courtyard, fed Jiucai, and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind.
Wei Zhong came to the practice room.
At this time, his cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi Refining (25%), and his cultivation had not improved much in a year.
This is because his "Bilang Gong" is stuck at the mastery (99%).
According to this progress, he needs at least four years to complete the Qi training. However, he only has two years to live.
Will he be demoted again?
······
Two years later, Wei Zhong was somewhat happy to leave his practice.
[Name: Wei Zhong]
[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 9 (65%)]
[Skill: Bilang Gong·Mastery (1%)]
[Lifespan: 137/142]
At the moment when his lifespan was almost over, the "Health Care Skill" finally broke through. Healed some of his injuries, and his lifespan was increased by five years.
This was a pleasant surprise. At the same time, Wei Zhong felt that his injuries were far from being completely healed. When the "Health Care Skill" broke through again, his lifespan would definitely increase again.
With these five years, his cultivation could be pushed up one step.
Then Wei Zhong immersed himself in practice again.
What surprised Wei Zhong was that, along with the breakthrough of "Health Care", "Bilang Gong" also broke through to the master level.
[Bilang Gong·Master (1%)]
'Could it be that the Qigong method is also related to the physical body? '
Wei Zhong has practiced for many years and has never heard of such a thing.
But in the final analysis, it is a good thing that the method has broken through. In the short term, he does not need to level up again. Maybe he can consider building a foundation within five years?
In the following years, Wei Zhong practiced while secretly hiding his identity to inquire about the foundation.
In ancient times, there were three levels of essence, spirit and soul in the foundation building. Essence is the physical body, Qi is the spiritual energy, and spirit is the soul. Breaking through all three levels is the foundation building.
In today's world of immortal cultivation, these three levels have long been separated, and those who break through one level are the foundation building.
At the same time, the world also divides the foundation building into physical cultivation, spiritual cultivation, and the most mysterious soul cultivation.
Spiritual cultivation is the largest type of cultivator in the world of immortal cultivation, and some cultivators will also assist in cultivating the body to reduce their shortcomings.
As for the soul cultivation method, there are few rumors in this world, and only some cultivators have one or two soul cultivation secrets.
Wei Zhong is currently considering the path of spiritual cultivation.
His cultivation is about to be perfected. As long as he finds a foundation-building pill or one or two foundation-building spiritual objects, he can consider trying to impact the foundation.
However, he still has to be careful. He must be fully prepared to impact the foundation. The experience of predecessors shows that if he fails to break through, his realm will regress at best, and his foundation will be damaged at worst.
Wei Zhong does not want to affect his own path because of this.
Speaking of foundation-building pills, it is interesting that Wei Zhong actually has a medicinal material in his hand, which is an important auxiliary material for refining foundation-building pills.
It seems to have been obtained from the three spiritual farmers. I don’t know how the Yan family spiritual farmer got this kind of pill. Is it prepared for his own foundation?
Wei Zhong shook his head. This is not important. The important thing is that Wei Zhong has this medicinal material, so he has the capital to refine pills with others.
Foundation-building pills are rare in the world of immortal cultivation, even in the Qingmu Sect where a group of cultivators gather.
Qingmu Sect’s own foundation-building pills were not enough, and those that fell into the hands of independent cultivators were even less.
However, the recipe for the foundation-building pill was not expensive in Qingmu Sect’s territory, and could be bought with a few dozen spirit stones.
However, there were very few alchemists who could refine this pill, and only Qi and Duan in Qingmu Sect could refine it.
Therefore, there was a way of joint alchemy in Qingmu Sect.
Each cultivator collected the medicinal materials in the recipe, jointly invited the alchemist to refine the pill, and finally divided the pills according to their contributions.
The main material of the foundation-building pill is a 'Jade Marrow Ganoderma' that is more than 300 years old, and two important auxiliary materials are 'Thousand Knot Flower' and 'Golden Essence Ginseng' that are more than 200 years old. There are more than 30 other auxiliary materials, but the age requirement is not high, and they are all common spiritual medicines that are easy to buy in various stores.
Wei Zhong has a 'Golden Essence Ginseng' that is more than 200 years old.
With this spiritual medicine, as long as he finds two other Taoist friends who have 'Jade Marrow Ganoderma' and 'Thousand Knot Flower', he can pay for the alchemist to help him make the pill.
If three pills are made, Wei Zhong can take one pill from them and start to impact the foundation-building.
Wei Zhong concealed his identity and posted the news of the joint alchemy on the public notice board of the market.
Thirty-six spirit stones for one pill is not expensive for Wei Zhong, just the price of two top-grade nourishing qi pills.
Over the years, in order to promote his cultivation more quickly, Wei Zhong has already replaced all the low- and medium-grade nourishing qi pills he used in daily practice with top-grade ones.
"Fellow Daoist, can you please leave your address so that we can inform friends after we gather all the people?"
Wei Zhong used a disguised identity this time, so it was impossible for him to tell his address. Wouldn't that expose Chu Zhong's vest?
"No need. I will come here every three months to check the progress of the call."
After leaving the name of Taoist Huai, Wei Zhong left the place.
In the following years, Wei Zhong practiced and honed his skills, and went to check the alchemy call every three months.
It is gratifying that in just half a year, another fellow Daoist with the main medicine was found.
So far, the only main medicine missing is the three-hundred-year-old 'Jade Marrow'.
However, after waiting for three years, there has been no news of this spiritual medicine.
