Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 37 Ji Ruochu preaches
Every month in the Rough Cultivator Alliance, foundation-building monks will go to the main square to give sermons. They usually talk about their own cultivation experiences, or impart some of their own experiences and insights, so as to guide the casual cultivators from going astray.

Luo Qingli listened to it several times. Although it was a long talk, it was mostly general and empty in content. There was even a foundation-building monk who read the Taoist Heart Sutra from a book of ten spiritual stones in the market. Occasionally, Add a note or two, and it's a sermon.

It is a tradition in Yaowang City for monks from the Sanxiu Alliance to preach. Although it has been followed for many years, there was no charge for preaching back then. Now, all monks who go to listen to the sermon need to pay three spiritual stones.

For some qi-refining monks, it may take a while to save three spiritual stones. There are many qi-refining monks in Yaowang City, and there are also many people who go to listen to the sermon. This is already a big profit.

But even if they paid the spirit stones, they didn't get corresponding gains.

Jin Fengyue also told her that these foundation-building monks who came to preach had some status, and they might even be the descendants of a certain senior. For people like them, most of their cultivation was achieved through pills, even if there were some How can you teach all your insights to others?
But even if the sermons in Yaowang City are very good, many people still flock to them. After all, monks value strength, and casual cultivators do not have teachers to teach them. Foundation-building monks are their seniors to them, and what their seniors say is surprising. It's natural to think that it's good advice, and even if it's just for fun, you have to support it.

Wu Daman is one of them.

Luo Qingli thought for a while, it was okay anyway, just go and listen. Maybe the senior foundation builder who is here to give a lecture today can be more reliable.

When she reached the main square, there were already many people in the square.

There is a formation under the Medicine King Statue as a sermon area. Anyone who pays the spirit stone can enter this area to listen to the lecture, and people outside the formation will naturally not be able to hear what is said inside.

Luo Qingli walked to the toll gate, where Wu Daman was already standing guard. He waved to her and said to the monk who was charging: "Together!"

Then he led Luo Qingli inside and walked all the way to the first few rows.

Jin Fengyue was already waiting there.

One year has passed, not only Luo Qingli's cultivation has improved, Jin Fengyue has also advanced from the ninth level of Qi refining to the Great Perfection of Qi refining, and Wu Daman was originally at the peak of the middle stage of Qi refining. He had stayed at this level for two years. Last month, I finally officially entered the late stage of Qi refining.

"Fellow Daoist Jin is here too." Luo Qingli greeted.

Jin Fengyue nodded slightly, "I have completed the Qi Refining process, and I also want to make some preparations for foundation building."

The Great Perfection of Qi Refining means that as long as you get the Foundation Establishment Pill, you can build the Foundation at any time. However, for casual cultivators, the Foundation Establishment Pill is also very difficult to obtain. In Yaowang City, a small competition is held every five years. The top fifty players in Xiaobi will be rewarded with foundation-building pills by the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.

Every three years, the trial tower will be opened. Any monks who can persist to the seventh level in the trial tower will be given a foundation-building pill by the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.

In more than three months, it will be time for the trial tower to open. It seems that Jin Fengyue is bound to win if he enters the tower this time.

Luo Qingli didn't ask any questions and sat quietly in his seat. When the audience gradually arrived, the foundation-building monks from the Loose Cultivator Alliance finally entered the room.

The monk who gave the sermon this time was a young man. He was in the early stage of foundation building and had a dignified appearance. He was also wearing the purple clothing of the San Xiu Alliance. He sat cross-legged on the futon. After the Qi Refining monk saluted, he spoke: "I am San Xiu. Xiu Alliance Ji Ruochu, 29 years old this year, successfully established the foundation half a year ago." As soon as these words came out, the monks present couldn't help but burst into an uproar. 29-year-old foundation building is already worth mentioning among the sects, let alone the other party is a casual cultivator.

All the Qi Refining cultivators couldn't help but stand in awe, and the look of respect on their faces became even more evident.

Ji Ruochu said calmly: "Today I will tell you about my experience when building the foundation."

Hearing this, Luo Qingli raised his eyebrows, surprised that he could actually hear something useful today. Jin Fengyue sat up straight and concentrated, and the whole place was silent for a moment.

Ji Ruochu's Qingyue voice slowly sounded: "After a monk reaches the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, the gaseous spiritual power in the Dantian has reached saturation and cannot hold any more. At this time, if you take the Foundation Establishment Pill, the medicinal properties of the pill will It causes a riot of spiritual power throughout the body, impacts the meridians and Dantian, widens them, and discharges excess impurities."

"When the meridians are widened to a certain extent, the spiritual power in the Dantian will change from gaseous to liquid. The speed of this process varies from person to person, and it depends more on the monk's own qualifications."

"As we all know, the fewer spiritual roots a monk has, the faster his practice. Among them, single spiritual roots are the best, and five spiritual roots are the worst. This is because a single spiritual root only needs to absorb one kind of spiritual energy, while five spiritual roots need Absorbing the five kinds of spiritual energy will not only increase your daily practice time many times, but it will also be affected when you advance."

"The more complex the spiritual roots are, the slower the spiritual power will change form during foundation building. When the efficacy of the foundation building pill is completely exhausted, if the spiritual power in the Dantian has not completely transformed into a liquid state, the foundation building will fail... …”

What Ji Ruochu said was quite informative, especially for those Qi Refining cultivators who had never tried foundation building and had no guidance from their teachers. These were valuable experiences.

When the sermon ended, the monks in the square gradually dispersed, still talking about the content of Ji Ruochu's sermon. Jin Fengyue was not in a hurry to leave. Wu Daman looked at him and said: "Brother Jin, you are the third spirit root, Ji Ruochu Senior also has three spiritual roots, so the probability of your success in building a foundation is quite high."

Jin Fengyue shook his head and sighed, "Even the three spiritual roots have advantages and disadvantages, not to mention it depends on the purity of the spiritual roots."

Luo Qingli pursed his lips and asked: "Is there no hope of becoming an immortal with the Five Spiritual Roots?"

"I can't say it's not possible, it's just too difficult."

Jin Fengyue looked at her and said, "Fellow Daoist Luo, think about it, when practicing single spiritual root, you only need to introduce a single spiritual energy into the Dantian, and after introducing one spiritual energy into the five spiritual roots, you have to introduce the other four spiritual energies one after another. This is a waste of time." There are too many, not to mention that the purity of the spiritual roots of mixed spiritual roots is generally not very good, and the induction of spiritual energy is weaker, making cultivation more difficult."

Luo Qingli frowned, "What if someone could introduce five spiritual energies at the same time?"

Jin Fengyue and Wu Daman were stunned, looked at each other and laughed at the same time, "Fellow Daoist Luo, I used to be so whimsical when I was young. If I could introduce multiple spiritual energies at the same time, wouldn't it take me about the same amount of time as a monk with a single spiritual root?" Is that so? Then wouldn’t I be no different from Shan Linggen?”

"But how subtle is the level of control of spiritual energy required to achieve this? This is not something we ordinary people can dream about. We should just guide the spiritual energy into the body in the same way..."
