Chapter 15: The Middle Stage of Foundation Building
It's late at night.
Zhao Yang sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the fish-shaped jade pendant he bought at the antique market today.
Zhao Yang closed his eyes and cultivated the 'Mixed Yuan Five Elements Xuan Jing', and all kinds of light spots in the air were misty and were absorbed into Zhao Yang's body, and the fish-shaped jade pendant he held in his hand emitted wisps of smoke and smoke, and the aura was inhaled into his body with his breathing.
After those Five Elements Essence Qi and the aura in the fish-shaped jade pendant entered Zhao Yang's body, they immediately turned into dark energy and dispersed into the muscles all over his body, and even into the internal organs.
In the dark room, you can even faintly see that the surface of Zhao Yang's body exudes an extremely faint layer of light.
As time passed, a trace of slightly black sweat gradually discharged from the pores of Zhao Yang's skin. The fish-shaped jade pendant he held in his hand exuded a faint warm brilliance in the darkness, and the aura like misty mist was constantly released, and it was swallowed into his body by Zhao Yang like a long whale absorbing water......
I don't know how long it took, a cool night breeze came from the window, Zhao Yang slowly opened his eyes, and a wisp of essence flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Syllable!
Zhao Yang casually turned on the lamp on the bedside table, looked down at himself, frowned suddenly, and then exhaled again, revealing a little please.
"There is indeed a lot of heaven and earth aura contained in this jade pendant, and I have only refined less than a third of it, and I have successfully improved my cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building. Completed the body's 'hair and marrow washing'. ”
At this moment, the fish-shaped jade pendant in Zhao Yang's hand was obviously not as bright and dazzling as before, and it became a little darker. And the skin on his body was obviously piled up with a layer of blackened, greasy impurities, exuding an unpleasant smell. That's the impurities that are expelled from his body.
The practice of foundation building is divided into the beginning, middle, and late stages.
The cultivation of this realm is mainly to refine the physical body and refine the strength. When the internal energy is completely spread all over the body, even in the internal organs, even if it is the late stage of the foundation building period, the next practice is to refine the internal energy in the body into the meridians and turn it into true qi.
However, 'cutting hair and washing the marrow' is a sign of the middle of the foundation building period. The next thing Zhao Yang had to do was to continue refining the aura into his body, and gradually train his internal strength into every corner of his body, even every cell.
Once it really reaches this point, then as long as Zhao Yang stimulates his internal strength, he will immediately be able to form a protective body qi on the surface of his body. It is the air shield formed by the air on the surface of the body under the joint action of the internal energy in every cell in the body, rather than the internal energy itself.
The cultivation in the foundation building period only has internal strength and no true qi, and it is impossible to truly release true qi.
In the 'Earth Yuan Immortal Land', Zhao Yang had cultivated to the tribulation period, and he knew the situation of each realm well.
Casually putting down the fish-shaped jade pendant in his hand, Zhao Yang looked at the slimy black impurities on his body, quickly got out of bed and found a set of dry clothes, and then ran into the bathroom to clean.
Because it was already one o'clock in the morning, Lin Xueqi was not in the living room, which saved trouble, otherwise, if Lin Xueqi saw the unpleasant and dark impurities on his body, Zhao Yang would have to spend a lot of effort to explain.
When walking through the living room, Zhao Yang casually glanced at Lin Xueqi's room, there was no light in the gap in the door, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep.
After scrubbing his body three times with soap, Zhao Yang finally gave up and came out of the bathroom after finally no smell on his body.
After carefully washing the dirty clothes, he went back to the room and lay down to sleep.
A restful night's sleep.
Early in the morning, Zhao Yang woke up as usual, and held the fish-shaped jade pendant and practiced for nearly two hours, Zhao Yang obviously felt that the internal strength contained in his body was much stronger.
It's just that after the fish-shaped jade pendant was refined and absorbed by him twice, the aura inside also went by six or seven percent. The original green and smooth texture has also become slightly white at this moment, losing its original luster. It is estimated that one more time, the aura in this jade pendant should all be refined, and the jade pendant will also be completely turned into powder.
Although this jade pendant cost Zhao Yang more than 3,000 oceans, it was still worth it. Originally, with the concentration of aura on the earth today, he would have to go through at least four or five months of penance to raise his cultivation to the current point, but now he only achieved it by practicing twice in the morning and one night.
"It seems that if you want to speed up your cultivation in the future, you still have to find a way to find more of this kind of old artifact that has been nourished and nurtured by the spiritual acupoint for many years. Otherwise, it will only rely on the water mill to slowly refine the aura of heaven and earth, and it will not be long before you want to break through to the 'condensation period'. ”
"However, it cost me more than 3,000 yuan to buy such a small jade pendant yesterday. You have to find a way to make some money, otherwise you won't have the money to buy even if you come across a treasure that contains aura. The word "wealth" is still ranked first, and without "wealth", it is simply impossible for cultivation to improve quickly. This is even more so in Shijie, who lacks aura on earth......"
Zhao Yang sighed.
After some washing, I jogged all the way to the park to practice boxing like yesterday.
When Zhao Yang came to the place where he practiced yesterday, he saw the girl with a ponytail again.
The girl's attainments in the 'Xingyi Fist' are indeed very profound, and the internal strength in the body has almost reached the peak of the early stage of the foundation building period. That is, Zhao Yang's cultivation realm now.
Although Zhao Yang was an authentic cultivator, he had only been cultivating for half a month after all, and he was able to cultivate so quickly to the middle stage of foundation building thanks to the subtlety of the 'Mixed Yuan Five Elements Xuanjing' mental method and the fish-shaped jade pendant.
Zhao Yang's own qualifications belong to the balance of the 'Five Elements Spiritual Root', and he does not favor any one of the spiritual roots, and such qualifications are the most suitable for practicing the 'Mixed Yuan Five Elements Xuan Sutra'.
That girl's cultivation has obviously entered a bottleneck period, and if she wants to really break through to the middle stage of foundation building, it will be difficult to rely on step-by-step hard training alone.
Zhao Yang only looked at it for a moment before retracting his gaze, and then began to practice the 'Tiger Descending Mountain Boxing'.
Practicing boxing by the lake, Zhao Yang was not worried that someone would peek at him practicing and learn boxing. This 'Tiger Descending Fist' may be a profound and mysterious martial arts boxing method for others, but for Zhao Yang, it is just a 'fitness boxing method' that assists internal strength cultivation.
As a cultivator, I don't pay attention to the 'Tiger Descending Mountain Fist', which belongs to the category of low-level martial arts. Once the cultivation breaks through the 'Qi Condensation Period' and reaches a higher 'Transformation Yuan Stage', these low-level martial arts are things that can be completely discarded.
As for the 'Tiger Descending Mountain Boxing', Zhao Yang had spent a lot of effort on penance when he was still an insignificant ordinary disciple of a small sect in the 'Diyuan Immortal Lu', although he had not used this basic martial arts method for hundreds of years in the following years. However, for cultivators, there are some things that are deeply ingrained and once comprehended, it is impossible to forget.
Even now that Zhao Yang's soul has crossed back into his original body on Earth, his consciousness's comprehension of the 'Tiger Descending Fist' is still at its peak. Just by slowly adapting to the body, it can fully exert the power of this boxing technique.
Yesterday morning's practice had allowed Zhao Yang to slowly get used to this boxing technique. Today, I came to practice again, especially when I made great progress in cultivation, and I broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, and the momentum of the boxing method was even more amazing.
A punch was struck, the strong wind attacked, the wind and clouds thundered, as if the rolling muffled thunder was ringing, and it was like a tiger roaring, the fist wind was faintly a little bit of turning the virtual into reality, condensing into the momentum of a tiger, and the surrounding trees were rattling......
