In the cave room, the little fox on the chaise longue was already asleep in the soft quilt, and a crystal of saliva was dripping down the corner of his mouth.

Not far away, Jiang Shuli was sitting cross-legged on the futon with his eyes closed, and he was wholeheartedly impacting the Jizhong acupoint. As long as the aura breaks through the Jizhong acupoint in one fell swoop and converges straight down to the dantian, you can reach the realm of the first layer of qi training.

The aura in the meridians in the body is already very sufficient, and the little gray stone between the wrists also feels Jiang Shuli's determination to impact the Jizhong acupoint, frantically absorbing the surrounding aura, and continuously forming a five-color spiritual qi flow into the meridians.

It was as if thousands of soldiers were charging into battle, and the surging spiritual currents slammed into the Jizhong acupoint one by one, and the Jizhong acupoint was like the city gate that had stood firm for thousands of years, standing majestically.

One, two, three...... One hundred, two hundred...... The hordes of aura soldiers were not discouraged, but became more and more courageous, and the city wall finally crumbled a little because of the continuous impact.

I don't know how much time passed, but the city wall finally cracked a little crack under the impact of the unswerving spiritual current, and then like a spider's web, the city wall was soon covered with mottled cracks.

Jiang Shuli couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, and he took a deep breath and continued to guide the spiritual qi flow to impact the Jizhong acupoint.

However, the situation is not as rosy as expected, and although the wall has cracked countless cracks and seems to be a little shaky, it seems that there is still a long way to go before it can be completely torn down.

Jiang Shuli looked at the flickering fluorescent Jizhong acupoint, pondering that the time for the cultivation of the Spirit Stream was almost over, and thought that it would be better to continue to attack the Jizhong acupoint tomorrow.

Thinking of this, she took a slow breath, and was about to withdraw the spiritual flow, when suddenly—

"Continue to break through, and you can't back down."

It is the voice of the Master. Jiang Shuli suppressed the breath in his heart, looked at the Jizhong acupoint with blazing eyes, and in his mind was Li Ruitian's calm and powerful voice, continue to break through!

As if injected with endless energy, Jiang Shuli left time behind, and continued to organize the spiritual flow to attack forward with a silent recitation, and the Jizhong acupoint also seemed to feel her thoughts, as if trembling in the wind.

Jiang Shuli thought as she collided. Her five-colored aura flow was like five sets of cylinders glued together, striking the Jizhong acupoint in a flat plane. Wouldn't it be more effective if it was hit in the shape of a sharp cone?

With this thought, Jiang Shuli immediately put it into action, and she controlled the parallel five-color spiritual qi flow to slowly rotate and stir, forming a spiral-shaped spiritual qi cone, and violently stabbed straight towards the middle acupoint!

Hearing only a slight 'poof' sound, a small hole was opened in the middle of the body, Jiang Shuli's heart was settled, and he concentrated on driving the spiral spiritual airflow, advancing and hitting point by minute, until-

After half an hour, the Jizhong acupoint finally couldn't hold on, completely collapsed, and the spiritual air flow that rushed in frantically squeezed the remaining meridians, rushing into the dantian like a flat river.

One level of Qi training, achieved!

Jiang Shuli suddenly felt that the pores of her whole body were dilated, and a lot of dirt overflowed from the pores, which was a manifestation of cleaning up the impurities in her body when the realm was raised, she smiled and opened her eyes, silently reciting a mantra of cleansing, and her body was immediately refreshed and neat.

Jiang Shuli stood up from the futon and saw Li Ruitian walk into the cave.

"Master!"

She was about to catch up, but saw Li Ruitian stretch out his palm and motioned her to sit down, so she obediently sat back on the futon.

Li Ruitian lifted the hem of his clothes and calmly sat down on the futon opposite her.

"Just now, you hit the middle acupoint, why did you retreat halfway?" His voice was serious and cold, and his dark eyes stared at Jiang Shuli deeply, as if he wanted to capture her true thoughts.

Jiang Shuli bit her lip, blinked her smart eyes, shrunk under Li Ruitian's unblinking gaze, and snorted, "Disciple sees that the time for cultivation is almost up, and today's results are not bad, and the Jizhong acupoint has been loosened......

As she spoke, she observed Li Ruitian's expression, and seeing that he was unmoved, she whispered again, "The disciple thinks that if you work hard next time, you should be able to break through the first level of Qi training." That's pretty good......"

"So ......"

"So you gave up?"

Jiang Shuli shrank back, she heard the master's gritted teeth, and suddenly became a little nervous, her eyes opened wide like a rabbit, nodding her head, shaking her head.

Li Ruitian sighed silently, he understood that the cultivators in the Tianhao Dynasty, because of the poor spiritual root and insufficient spiritual energy, most of their cultivation was three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, so basically no one could cultivate to the realm of foundation building.

It's better in Lanshan Academy, with the school's supervision, and the disciples are all young and upward, the cultivation speed is actually not slow.

It's just that after graduating from the academy, most of the male disciples have entered the official career, while the female disciples are like mortals and go out of the cabinet to take care of family affairs.

Cultivation was slowly delayed.

This is indeed the norm that is hard to change, and he knows it.

It's just that when he saw Jiang Shuli like this, he didn't know why there was a breath of anger in his heart, which made him want to wake her up fiercely.

"Shuli," this was the first time Li Ruitian called Jiang Shuli's name, Jiang Shuli suddenly felt a move in his heart, and he didn't know what it was, so he heard the master say solemnly, "Your idea is very wrong." ”

"First, there is no sun and moon in cultivation, if a few hours can stop your cultivation from moving forward, you can start cultivating today, because you don't even have the most basic Dao heart, what's the point of cultivation?"

"Second, the acupoint is loose, and it should be able to break through next time, which is the reason for stopping this time?" Li Ruitian couldn't help but sneer, "Have you ever thought that if you don't break through the first level of qi training now, when you get out of this cave door, you may be killed by an opponent who is at the first level of qi training?" Do you have a next time? ”

"Husband, master, ......" Jiang Shuli was frightened by Li Ruitian's harsh criticism, her eyes turned red in an instant, and a teardrop slipped down her white face from the corner of her eye, "I ......"

"Think about it yourself, if it's still like this, you don't have to come over tomorrow." Li Ruitian stood up, flicked his robe, and turned to leave.

Jiang Shuli sat on the futon in a daze, tears rolling down like beads, she reached out and wiped it carelessly, and closed her eyes.

What floated in his mind was what Li Ruitian had said, and what flashed was Li Ruitian's serious admonition. Did she really do something wrong?

In the cognition she has been educated since childhood, if she does not participate in the sect election, cultivation is just the icing on the cake. Perhaps, the cultivators of the entire Tianhao Dynasty thought like this.

They live like ordinary people, go out of the cabinet to have children, take care of household chores, and gradually grow old, and for them, cultivation is just one more bargaining chip for a better survival, not all.

Being able to break through the first layer of Qi cultivation again through three cultivations, to speak from her heart, she is really satisfied, and even a little proud of her ability.

It's just that why is the Master dissatisfied? Or even say such harsh words?
