The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

62 Three Years
  Sitting on the futon in the cave, Xu Zhiyu clasped his hands together, his hands tightly closed, and there was only a slight sound of breathing.

It looks calm on the outside, but it's actually the most critical moment inside. That's right, he is now using the power of the Spirit Gathering Pill to hit the bottleneck of the ninth level of Qi training again and again.

At this time, nearly three years have passed since he exchanged the spiritual bamboo shoots.

In the past three years, a lot of things have happened, and generally speaking, mostly good things have happened.

The first is that in the past three years, it has finally raised its cultivation to the peak of the eighth level of Qi training, and is still one step away from the ninth level of Qi training. I believe that if you practice hard for a period of time, you will achieve a breakthrough naturally.

Since the eighth level of Qi training and the ninth level of Qi training are just a small bottleneck, it can be broken through without using pills to break through the barrier. Of course, this is for people with good qualifications. If the qualifications are too poor, every step forward will consume a huge amount of time and resources.

Then there is the talisman making. He has increased the success rate of the Earth Escape Talisman and Yuangang Talisman to 60%. Thanks to this, the family contribution points in his hand still exceeded 8,000, reaching 8,700.

This was even after he fed the spirit beast "Huahua" spirit bamboo shoots every day. As for the fruit flower bee Xu Zhiyu, he was not treated badly either, with an uninterrupted supply of spirit beast pills.

Of course, he did not go into seclusion for three years at a time, but came out of seclusion once a year. Every time I go out, I go to the Shanggong Hall to exchange materials and sell the first-grade high-grade spiritual talismans I drew to the family. By the way, purchase spirit bamboo shoots, spirit beast pills, and pills for training aids.

In the end, after his unremitting efforts over the years, the energy accumulated in the amulet exceeded what he had accumulated when he repaired the amulet. According to his inference, the current energy is enough to repair the sixth crack. If this is successful, then this talisman can be a powerful weapon. When activated, it can kill the ninth-level monks. You know, the farther you reach the end of your cultivation, the bigger the gap becomes. The gap between the Foundation Establishment monks and the Zifu monks can be called a chasm.

However, such a talisman requires a foundation-building monk to use it, and Xu Zhiyu would be wasting his resources if he used it. Because he doesn't have enough magic power in his body, he will definitely not be able to exert its maximum power, thus wasting this talisman.

However, he did not use the energy to repair the talisman, but prepared to inject the purple energy talisman. Come to help the family ancestor Xu Deming break through the Zi Mansion. The Wei family has obtained the Ziyang Pill, and maybe there will be foundation-building monks to break through the Zi Mansion at any time.

Although the wave of monsters is approaching, the Wei family does not dare to take action against the Xu family. After all, Baiyi Sect has to take care of its face, but no one can say for sure. Xu Zhiyu has no habit of leaving his destiny to others. So after thinking over and over again, he was ready to tell the truth to his grandfather, but he would definitely have to change his story.

Then there is the issue of the growth of spiritual beasts. "Huahua", which Xu Zhiyu has been looking forward to for the past three years, finally broke through the first-order low-grade spirit beast and became a first-order mid-grade spiritual beast with the uninterrupted supply of spiritual bamboo shoots for three consecutive years. Although he was still far away from the first-level top grade, although he was anxious, he also knew that this matter could not be rushed.

As for why he was so anxious, it was because he still refused to give up on the god-forging technique he had obtained and always wanted to try it. Of course, the prerequisite is that "Huahua" can awaken the magical talent of "roaring", otherwise nothing will happen.

As for the Fruit Flower Bee, with the supply of spirit beast pills in the past three years, the queen bee has already broken through from a first-order low-grade spirit beast to a first-order mid-grade spirit beast, and her group has also expanded a lot. But as the third brother said, this is basically the limit.

However, the bee swarm can provide him with some spiritual honey every year, which is not bad. He did not take these spiritual nectar himself. The grade was still too low for him, and it added little to his cultivation level. In the end, it all ended up in "Huahua"'s stomach. According to the Spiritual Beast Sect's breeding secret book, this spiritual honey is also very beneficial to the growth of the iron-eating beast, so Xu Zhiyu simply gave it all.

Besides, a lot of things have happened to the family in the past three years, both good and bad.

First of all, myna brother Xu Zhipeng was getting married in Taoshui Fang City. He missed it because he was in seclusion. However, before he left Fang City, he had already prepared a gift for his father. I think his father had already handed it over at the wedding.

The second thing is that due to the mining of Chiyan Iron Mine in recent years, the family's financial pressure has been greatly improved, and it can be said that it has turned a loss into a profit. Not only did it increase the salary for the family monks, but it also increased subsidies for learning the various arts of cultivating immortals. Now there are several more alchemists, talisman makers, and weapon refiners in the family. Although they are all first-level low-grade ones, they are all developing in a promising direction.

As for the formation master, there is still no one, and the family is not reluctant to invest. It’s just that no one in the family knows this formation master. How do you teach and learn.

After talking about the good things, let’s talk about the bad things.

That was after the second year of retreat, and he was exchanging talisman-making materials at the Shanggong Hall. Suddenly, seven bells were heard ringing from the family meeting hall. Before Xu Zhiyu could react, the sixth elder Xu Shenghua, who had been chatting with him just now, put down the talisman-making materials that he wanted to exchange for him. He ran as fast as he could. This was the first time he saw this old man running so fast. He didn't have time to think too much and left immediately.

When I arrived at the family meeting hall, I found that almost all the monks in the family were here and crowded the entire hall. Those who couldn't stand stood outside the door.

After asking around, I found out that it was the great elder Xu Sheng who died at the end of his life. Everyone comes to the meeting hall to say goodbye. There was no mourning, no crying, but the scene was extremely sad.

Thinking of the great elder who was still very lively when he was arguing with him in his own city, but now he was covered with a white cloth and lying there quietly. This had a great impact on Xu Zhiyu.

If you don't achieve immortality, you will end up with nothing more than a pile of loess after a hundred years. This further strengthened his belief in immortality. He would never be like this, he could never be like this, he swore secretly in his heart.

After returning to the cave, he first took the matter of making the talisman slowly. He kept taking the elixir to improve his cultivation until he reached the edge of the ninth level of Qi training. He did not stop, preparing to break through in one breath.

Time passed little by little, and Xu Zhiyu was running his skills crazily to refine the spiritual power in the elixir. His face showed pain, he gritted his teeth, and his eyes even showed bloodshot eyes.

After a while, after the refinement of the technique, the original violent spiritual power became gentle. Following Xu Zhiyu's guidance, he headed towards Dantian.

When the spiritual power gradually increases and reaches a certain amount, the originally crowded Dantian has reached its limit and it is almost impossible to increase it.

Even so, Xu Zhiyu still did not stop, frantically sending spiritual energy into his Dantian. He made up his mind to complete the battle in one blow.

Tighten your mind and organize your spiritual power to hit the barrier of the ninth level of Qi training again and again.

After dozens of impacts, a sharp pain spread throughout the body, and then returned to normal.

A faint smile appeared on Xu Zhiyu's face, and he repeatedly checked the situation in his dantian. I saw that the Dantian had expanded in a full circle, twice as much as the spiritual power it could hold before the breakthrough.

With the help of the elixir and his own efforts, Xu Zhiyu successfully broke through and entered the ninth level of Qi training.

Even though he successfully broke through, he did not stop, but continued to run his skills to consolidate his cultivation.

A month later, Xu Zhiyu opened his eyes, and the light in his eyes flashed away. After more than a month of hard work, he finally stabilized his cultivation, and there was no longer any risk of his cultivation declining.

Feeling the changes in myself after the breakthrough, I feel that my current self can deal with the three previous selves. It is so powerful.

"It's time to come out of seclusion. Let's go see my grandfather later! There are some things that should be done." Xu Zhiyu made up his mind and was about to come out of seclusion.

　Alas, the first round of recommendations was very poor.
