Volume 1 Yunlan Starts Chapter 46, Bottleneck
"Your two high-grade thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, according to the price of today's market, should be able to sell for the price of twelve lower-grade spirit stones, and I will buy fifteen lower-grade spirit stones here, what do you think?"
"I only sell one. Li Ming said.
"You only sell one?" the vendor was stunned when he heard this, then you came over with two thousand-year-old ginseng plants in your hands to sell, "Why is that?" the vendor asked.
"I plan to exchange the other strain for a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, I don't know if it's feasible?" Li Ming said what he thought in his heart.
"Oh, do you want to change it to a hundred-year-old ginseng?" The hawker was slightly stunned, he had never heard of anyone who exchanged a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng for a century-old ginseng, medicinal materials are not money, gold is common for silver, but it is rare to exchange good medicine for cheap medicine, "I can exchange it for fifteen plants, this is the highest price I can give." ”
"Fifteen hundred-year-old ginseng?" Li Ming heard this, calculated in his heart, so he happily agreed, "Then replace it with fifteen hundred-year-old ginseng." ”
Under the extremely surprised eyes of the stall vendors, Li Ming returned to his residence with fifteen hundred-year-old ginseng plants, and impatiently put the fifteen hundred-year-old ginseng into a container, and poured the golden liquid in the golden tripod into the container. Li Ming took out 14 of the high-grade thousand-year-old ginseng one by one, and took them for oral practice separately, leaving only one thousand-year-old ginseng for future exchange. With these fourteen thousand-year-old ginseng strains, Li Ming's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past two weeks, Li Ming obviously feels that the spiritual energy in his dantian qi sea has been refined a lot, and his own cultivation has also increased with his cultivation, from the late stage of Qi acceptance to the first layer of the early stage of Qi refining.
Li Ming looked at the remaining old ginseng on the table, and secretly smacked his tongue, fourteen high-grade thousand-year-old ginseng could only make Li Ming rise to the realm of the first layer of the Qi refining period, which showed that the high-grade thousand-year-old ginseng that was directly orally taken could still not give full play to the true medicinal properties of the high-grade thousand-year-old ginseng.
Li Ming took the last remaining thousand-year-old mountain god to the weekly set again, or the vendor of the medicinal herb stall last time, exchanged for fifteen hundred-year-old ginseng from the hands of the hawker again, and after a few times of truthful reciprocation, Li Ming's cultivation was also steadily improving, but when Li Ming's cultivation reached the third layer of the qi refining period, it seemed to have encountered a bottleneck, no matter how Li Ming took the thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, the aura in his own qi sea was just unable to refine half a point, Li Ming was puzzled, could it be that he had developed resistance to this thousand-year-old mountain ginseng?
And just when Li Ming was at a loss, after exchanging and playing thousand-year-old ginseng on the weekly collection again, Li Ming once again met Senior Brother Liu Hai, who pulled out a knife to help him last time.
"Senior Brother Liuhai!" Seeing his savior, Li Ming greeted him excitedly.
"Huh?" Liu Hai saw that someone was greeting him, and turned around to take a look, isn't this person the person he saved at the Zhou Ji before?Why is he here?"Your cultivation?" What's even more amazing is that he has only not seen the other party for a few weeks, and at this time, the other party has become a disciple of the third layer of the Qi refining period, and this cultivation speed is really amazing.
"Oh~ I'm cultivating. Li Ming didn't know how to explain the key to this, so he had to say in one stroke, "Chance, coincidence." ”
"Chance is also a kind of strength? In just two months since you started, you've cultivated to the realm of the third layer of the Qi Refining Period! Your cultivation speed is too amazing. When Liu Hai saw Li Ming, he was really shocked by Li Ming's cultivation speed, Liu Hai patted Li Ming's shoulder, and said with envy and jealousy in his words.
"Maybe luck. Li Ming said embarrassedly, but secretly said in his heart, if you have taken dozens of thousand-year-old mountain ginseng in a row, you can improve your cultivation so quickly. Such a large amount of waste is naturally due to the effect of the golden tripod, if it is not for the assistance of the golden liquid produced by the golden tripod, how can Li Ming's cultivation progress so fast.
"Senior Brother Liu, I remember the last time you made a move, I heard someone say that you have reached the realm of the late stage of the Qi Refining Period?" Li Ming inquired with a curious expression.
"The late stage of the Qi Refining Period~ can be regarded as having reached it, my current cultivation is already the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Period to be precise. Bangs spoke.
"The eighth layer of the Qi refining period?" Li Ming said with admiration on his face when he heard this, and Li Ming asked Liu Haidao, "Senior brother, junior brother has some questions about his recent cultivation and wants to ask senior brother, I hope that senior brother will not hesitate to give advice." ”
"Do you want to ask me that no matter how much I cultivate, I can't improve my cultivation to the fourth level of the Qi Refining Period?" Liu Hai came up with Li Ming's thoughts at a glance and said.
"Senior Brother Liu is really amazing, I came up with my thoughts at a glance. Li Ming repeated the problems he had encountered since his cultivation from front to back, and even described the bottlenecks he was currently encountering to Liu Hai.
"This is a normal phenomenon for you, this is because the third layer of this Qi Refining Period is a hurdle, because the capacity of each person's dantian qi sea is limited, when the aura reaches a saturated state, no matter how you absorb the new aura, it can no longer accumulate in the qi sea in your body. Just like a bucket, when the bucket is full, no matter how much water you put in the bucket, it will overflow. It's just that people are different from people, some people will encounter bottlenecks in the second layer of the Qi Refining Period, some people will encounter bottlenecks in the third layer of the Qi Refining Period, and even some people will encounter bottlenecks in the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Period, which is really a normal phenomenon for you. Liu Hai patiently explained. "I see!" Li Ming instantly understood the reason when he heard Liu Hai's explanation, and then asked, "Then after encountering a bottleneck, how can we improve our cultivation? You can't because the capacity of the Qi Sea is not enough, you can't cultivate the next mental method, so how do other people cultivate? Could it be that you can't open up the Qi Sea?"
