Sunrise and sunset, grass and grass heading, clouds and clouds, Shu Yan homecoming.

For ordinary mortals in the world, four years is enough time for a twenty-eight-year-old girl to become a pregnant woman. It can also make a baby waiting to be fed grow into a child chasing bees and butterflies.

However, for cultivators whose longevity is far beyond ordinary people, it is very likely that four years will pass in a flash just by meditating and cultivating.

Sun Yi'an is still in the cave in the belly of Donglingfeng Mountain.

Most of the countless spirit stones on the ground in the cave had turned into grayish-white ordinary stones. The five flames below the Dan furnace were only the thickness of a thumb, and slowly poured into the Dan furnace standing in the center of the cave.

At this time, he had already reached the stage of "collecting the pill" that Elder Lu said, and for the next period of time, he didn't need to continue to control the flame alchemy, he only needed to wait quietly for the pill in the furnace to completely converge the aura, and it was done.

After checking the elixir, Sun Yi'an began to use his divine sense to check the situation in his body again. I saw that at this moment, his dantian was full of five-colored spiritual power that condensed into a mist, and no matter how much he cultivated, the spiritual power in his dantian did not increase in the slightest.

Obviously, he had already cultivated to the peak of the late stage of Qi refining, and he had once again encountered a cultivation bottleneck.

The next step is to "turn the spirit into liquid", transform the spiritual power in the dantian into a liquid state, and enter the foundation building period.

The biggest gap between the Qi refining period and the foundation building period is that the dantian of the same size can only store spiritual power in the body in a gas state during the Qi refining period, but the spiritual power can be converted into a liquid state during the foundation building period.

The purity and storage capacity of liquid spiritual power were naturally not comparable to those in the Qi refining period. Therefore, once you enter the foundation building period, the spiritual power that can be stored in the body alone is dozens or even a hundred times that of the Qi refining period!

A year ago, Sun Yi'an had already cultivated to his current state, and in the following time, he kept trying to turn the spiritual power in his body into liquid, and soon he found a problem that made him very distressed.

When the five spiritual powers of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in his body existed in a gaseous state, they could still be at peace, but once they tried to condense one of them into a liquid, they would break the balance and soon clash with the other kind of spiritual power. Several times he even almost made the spiritual power in his body completely out of control.

"Alas~ It seems that it will not be able to break through to the foundation building period for a while and a half."

Sun Yi'an sighed helplessly, took out the magic disk left by Elder Lu for short-distance contact with other monks, and shot out a five-colored light from his fingertips, which disappeared into the magic disk.

On the day the elixir was released, Geng Pojun and Elder Lu came together.

After the two of them checked the pills in the Dan furnace, Elder Lu took out a square box that looked like gold and not gold and wood from the storage magic vessel, played two magic decisions to open the box, and with a wave of his hand, he put the four pills in the Dan furnace into the box, and quickly closed the box.

Seeing this, Geng Pojun smiled slightly, and also took out a square box that was almost the same as Elder Lu, and put away the remaining three pills.

Sun Yi'an saw the square box that the two took out, and his heart moved slightly.

"Hehe~ If this Infant Pill is not contained in a thousand machine boxes, the spiritual power will inevitably be lost after a long time, and the effect will be greatly reduced. I didn't expect Senior Brother Geng to have this thing. ”

Elder Lu saw the square box that Geng Pojun took out, and said slowly.

"Haha! Even though the Thousand Machine Box is rare, when it comes to the elixir of the Infant Transformation Pill, how could I not prepare early, junior brother! ”

Geng Pojun replied with a smile.

Elder Lu, who was dressed in a snow-white robe, held the Thousand Machine Box in one hand, held the Thousand Machine Box in the other, and stared eagerly at the Thousand Machine Box in front of him with his eyes and said:

"Hehe~ With the Infant Pill, the old man's grasp of the advanced Yuan infant stage can be improved by at least two percent! And Senior Brother Geng, you only need to take one, and you can 100% advance to the middle stage of the Dan Formation!

"In this way, if those people really cross the Jinyang Mountain Range in the future, my Haoyang Sect may not have the strength to fight. It's not in vain that you and I have spent countless costs to collect alchemy materials in the past hundred years! ”

"Haha! As long as you can break through the bottleneck, spend some time and spend some money, what can it be! Besides, this time, there are seven Cheng Dan pills in one furnace, except for the one I took myself, and the extra two are traded with others, which is enough to make up for the expenses spent on collecting elixirs over the years! ”

Geng Pojun smiled heartily.

"Originally, you and I estimated that one furnace would refine at most three or five Infant Pills, but I didn't expect that this time it would be as many as seven Pills! Although Master Sun's cultivation is still shallow, he is not weak in the manipulation of divine thoughts.

The requirements for the control of the divine consciousness in "The Flame Duel" are extremely high, and even a monk in the foundation building period may not be able to control it as freely as Master Sun's nephew. It was a wise move to let Master Sun's nephew do this. ”

Elder Lu looked at Sun Yi'an with a smile and said with a look of approval.

"Well, this time you can make seven pills in one furnace, you really have a lot of merit, in addition to the previous promise that you will try your best to keep you at the inner door and officially worship under my door, if you have any other requirements, just say it in front of me and your Uncle Lu. As elders, the two of us naturally don't owe you a favor from a junior. ”

Geng Pojun also looked at Sun Yi'an and spoke.

"It is the duty of a disciple to be able to serve Shizun and Master Lu, and the disciple has no other requirements. I just want to ask Shizun and Lu Shibo, the disciple has now cultivated to the peak of the late stage of Qi training, the disciple has tried to turn the spirit into liquid many times, but because the five spiritual powers in the body cannot be balanced, he almost died due to the loss of control of the spiritual power, I implore the master and Lu Shibo for guidance. ”

Sun Yi'an took the opportunity to ask the question that had plagued him for most of the year.

"This ...... Although the teacher is a monk in the Yudan period, he is cultivating a single attribute of Jinyang Gong, and when he first advanced to the foundation building period, he has never encountered the situation you mentioned. ”

Geng Pojun's tone paused, and after speaking, he looked at Elder Lu.

Elder Lu smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Hehe~ Although the old man met a person with the Five Elements Heavenly Root in the past, he had never discussed the problem of cultivation with him, so the old man couldn't do anything about it."

After listening to the two of them, a trace of disappointment flashed in Sun Yi'an's eyes, but he quickly covered up the past.

"The people of the Five Elements Heavenly Root are extremely rare, and the problems you encounter in cultivation, the two of us really can't solve your doubts, so let's do it, I don't have the pills and magic weapons that are suitable for you here, this stand-in talisman will be rewarded to you, and it can be regarded as repaying the favor of you and me for helping the two of us to refine the pill.

"This talisman can only be used once, and it can be sacrificed when fighting with others, and it can withstand a blow instead of the main body, which is an excellent means of preserving life, even among the monks in the foundation building period, it is also very rare.

"You put this thing away, if it is not for your life, don't use it easily!"

Geng Pojun took out a palm-sized gray-black talisman and handed it to Sun Yi'an as he spoke.

"Thank you for your kindness!"

Sun Yi'an was overjoyed when he heard this, and respectfully put his hands into talismans.

The talisman was made of unknown material, grayish-black throughout, and was painted with a vague human figure made of a number of strange runes.

Sun Yi'an didn't look at it much, so he put this talisman in his sleeve.

Seeing that Geng Pojun took out his cherished stand-in talisman, Elder Lu also took out a yellowed ancient book:

"Hehe, Senior Brother Geng is really generous, and he is even willing to give such a precious thing as a stand-in talisman to Senior Nephew Sun! Although the old man had some good magic weapons and pills in his hands, most of them were not available to Master Sun's nephew's current cultivation.

The old man has a scroll here that he got from a monk from another country in the past, called "Hundred Arrays Catalogue", although this volume is a little incomplete, but the several ancient formations recorded are quite peculiar, and today's formations are very different, the old man originally planned to study it in his spare time, how could he not wait for the longevity to be approaching, and he did not dare to be distracted by the advanced Yuan Ying.

"I see that Senior Nephew Sun is quite interested in the way of formation, so I gave this volume of "Hundred Arrays Catalogue" to Senior Nephew Sun, although Senior Nephew Sun said that his cultivation is progressing slowly, he may be able to make achievements in the formation in the future."

In fact, Sun Yi'an was not interested in formation, and the arrangement of the formation in the small courtyard was just a whim.

However, the formation scroll that could be praised by this late stage monk of the Jiedan, even if he was not interested, was definitely not a mortal thing, but he did not immediately reach out to pick it up, but looked at Geng Pojun, after all, this was his nominal master.

When Geng Pojun saw Elder Lu take out the ancient scroll, his brows inadvertently furrowed slightly, as if he was not very satisfied with what Elder Lu gave Sun Yi'an, and said lightly:

"Since you, Master Lu, are willing to give you this precious scroll, why don't you hurry up and thank you, Master Lu!"

When talking about the word "precious", Geng Pojun deliberately accentuated his tone.

Elder Lu shook his head with a dumb smile, handed the ancient scroll to Sun Yi'an, and didn't say anything more.

Sun Yi'an hurriedly thanked him and took the ancient scroll and put it in his sleeve.

Then the two of them jointly cast a spell to seal the five strands of earth fire on the ground, and then left the cave with Sun Yi'an and returned to Dongling Peak.

Sun Yi'an, who had been "imprisoned" for more than four years, finally returned to the small courtyard of Yaoxian Valley. Lang Xiao, who had been absent for a long time, pounced on him excitedly, and put his head on his chest with great affection, pushing Sun Yi'an back again and again.

Today's Lang Xiao is already a genuine first-level demon beast, and judging from the fluctuations of spiritual power emanating from his body, he is about the same as a monk in the early stage of Qi training. In addition to the body length of about half a zhang, the silver hair is shiny and majestic, the eyes are full of silver spots, and the body has become stronger, in terms of physical strength alone, the current Sun Yi'an is far inferior to Lang Xiao.

However, what magical powers Lang Xiao has, Sun Yi'an doesn't know. Unless you go through the spirit beast recognition ceremony, you can know Lang Xiao's magical powers through mental communication. But Sun Yi'an never regarded Lang Xiao as a spirit animal, and never thought of letting him recognize his master.

has been nervous for four consecutive years, which makes Sun Yi'an feel very tired. After frolicking with Lang Xiao for a while, he thoroughly cleaned the inside and outside of the small courtyard, and then fell asleep.
