While controlling the speed of the release of spiritual power in the high-grade spirit stones, Qingyang was rapidly running the exercises, guiding these spiritual powers into his meridians, transforming the spiritual power into true qi in the meridians, and then merging into the dantian, slowly improving his cultivation.

Because there is no restriction of the bottleneck, the transformation of true qi into the dantian is relatively easier than when the bottleneck was broken through before, otherwise, Qingyang still doesn't know if he can hold on.

Different from the usual cultivation, it is much faster to absorb spiritual power directly from the top-grade spirit stone and transform it into true qi, because there is too much spiritual power contained in the top-grade spirit stone, and it can be continuously supplied, and there is almost no gap and pause, so Qingyang can clearly feel that his cultivation is growing at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

Now the growth rate of Qingyang's cultivation is almost ten times faster than his previous refining and refining Qi Gathering Pill into True Qi, if it is even more incomparable to the previous time when he absorbed spiritual power from the outside world and refined it into True Qi, it is even more incomparable, and the difference is dozens of times.

At this rate, in a few months at most, Qingyang's cultivation will be able to improve to the ninth level of qi refining, and then he will participate in the inner courtyard competition, and Qingyang will be completely sure.

There is one of the biggest drawbacks of using high-grade spirit stones to quickly improve cultivation, that is, it is too wasteful and too extravagant, although Qingyang has made his best efforts, there is still a lot of spiritual power that he has not had time to absorb, so it escapes into the air, and finally disappears into nothing.

The spiritual power in the top-grade spirit stones, Qingyang absorbs more, wastes more, and looks regrettable. But this is also a helpless thing, compared with the elixir, the use of spirit stones to improve cultivation is like this, the lower the cultivation, the more waste, otherwise it is fast and convenient to use spirit stones to improve cultivation, why do you need to exchange spirit stones for pills to improve cultivation?

With the passage of time, Qingyang gradually adapted to the pain caused by the rapid improvement of cultivation, and his cultivation gradually entered the formality, and the spiritual power in the top-grade spirit stones continued to pour into Qingyang's body, and his cultivation was also increasing.

Qingyang has always maintained this state, sitting cross-legged on the ground and never getting up, when he was hungry, he took a Bigu Dan, and when he was thirsty, he directly separated a trace of divine thoughts, took out a jar of mountain spring water from the drunken immortal gourd and drank it, tirelessly, forgetting the years, without stopping for a moment.

Unconsciously, half a year passed, and the high-grade spirit stone in Qingyang's hand became more and more dim, and the spiritual power in it was almost exhausted, and Qingyang's cultivation had also been raised to the ninth layer of qi refining. However, Qingyang did not get up, but continued to cultivate, until after another half a month, the spiritual power of the high-grade spirit stone in his hand was all exhausted and turned into a useless powder, Qingyang slowly opened his eyes, and casually sprinkled the powder into the drunken immortal gourd.

After meditating and cultivating for a long time, Qingyang's muscles all over his body were a little stiff, he stood up and moved for a while, and his body quickly regained his vitality. Then Qingyang used the means of inward vision to sort out his Yuan Shen realm and dantian meridians.

Now Qingyang's cultivation has reached the ninth layer of qi refining, and it is not the kind of ninth layer of qi refining that has just broken through, but the ninth layer of qi refining whose realm has stabilized to a certain extent. With his current cultivation to participate in the Qingfeng Hall Inner Courtyard Competition, he is fully sure that he will get a better ranking, and if nothing else, it is also possible to get a Tsukidan.

What's more, the ninth layer of qi refining is only one step away from the consummation of qi refining, and if you cultivate at a normal speed, the average monk will be able to raise her cultivation to the realm of qi refining consummation in ten or eight years at most, if the pill can guarantee it, maybe two or three years will be enough.

And Qingyang has never lacked pills, two or three years later, he is not yet forty years old, and he has the conditions to break through the foundation building period before he is forty years old, even among the seven great immortal sects, it is almost comparable to many Heavenly Spirit Root disciples. The qualifications of the Five Elements Spirit Root have cultivated almost the speed of the Heavenly Spirit Root, and Qingyang is proud enough.

Qingyang had calculated his strength, when he was in the eighth layer of qi refining before, he was able to defeat Liang Yudong of the ninth layer of qi refining, but now that he has advanced to one level, it is not very difficult to defeat the Qi refining consummate cultivator. As for the foundation building monk, Qingyang is not sure yet, but he can guarantee that he will be undefeated in a short period of time, instead of relying on the alcoholic queen bee like before.

Calculating the time, at this time, there were only more than two months left before the Inner Courtyard Dabi, and the time was still very tight for Qingyang, he did not end this retreat, but came to the practice ground in his small courtyard, and seized the time to cultivate the Five Elements Sword Formation in the Five Elements Forging Immortal Formula.

Before going to Shocking Wind Mountain, Qingyang had cultivated the Five Elements Sword Formation, and it was beginning to take shape, but because the cultivation time was too short, the cooperation of the five magic swords was not tacit enough, and the power of the Five Elements Sword Formation could not be exerted, plus his divine thoughts were slightly insufficient, and it was a little difficult to manipulate the five high-grade magic swords at the same time, so he had not used the Five Elements Sword Formation some time ago.

Now that Qingyang's cultivation has been improved by one level, the Yuan Shen and Shen Nian have also increased accordingly, and at the same time, it should be much easier to manipulate the five magic swords than before, if Qingyang can refine the Five Elements Sword Formation during this time, then there will be more guarantees in the inner courtyard competition.

In Qingyang's diligent cultivation, two months passed quickly, and the Five Elements Sword Formation he cultivated also began to bear fruit, although he could not exert all the power of the Five Elements Sword Formation now, but he already had the charm of the Five Elements Sword Formation.

The Five Elements Sword Array is the supporting sword array of the Five Elements Forging Immortal Formula, which is extremely compatible with the monks of the Five Elements Spiritual Root, if other monks use this set of sword formations, it will be more or less restricted, because there is a factor of the five elements restraining each other, it is relatively sluggish to use, and some aspects will be weakened to a certain extent.

Qingyang is different, he is a real Five Elements Spirit Root Cultivator, and the True Qi he has cultivated has both the Five Elements, and he will not be affected in the slightest when using the Five Elements Sword Formation. Moreover, the five elements restrain each other, complement each other, and the attacks are continuous, which can maximize the power of the sword array.

Although Qingyang can only exert the charm of the sword array six or seven percent now, it is not comparable to ordinary exercises, not to mention anything else, at least it is more than twice as strong as the four-element sword array that Qingyang is good at now, if one day he can exert the full power of the five-element sword array, it will be even more powerful.

With this Five Elements Sword Formation, Qingyang is even more confident in this Inner Courtyard Competition, and now he has the strength to fight even in the face of the foundation building monks, let alone these late-stage Qi refining disciples in the Inner Court? As long as you are careful, it is not very difficult to get a Tsukidan.
