Chapter 116: Nine Layers of Qi Training
"It's finally a breakthrough, I didn't expect it to drag on for so long......"
Chen Li originally thought that he would be able to enter the ninth layer of qi cultivation before the New Year's Festival, but he was stuck in front of the bottleneck for more than two months, and it was not until the spring of the second year that he finally broke through.
"It's getting harder and harder."
Chen Li also felt a slight pressure, he was not young anymore.
The real age is 43, the virtual is 44, the Huang is 45, the hair is 46, and the general is 47, all of whom are almost fifty years old.
"It is said that the older you get, the more difficult it is to build a foundation, and the longer it drags on, the slimmer the hope!" Chen Li sighed, breathed a little of his restless spiritual power, and stood up: "Some sect disciples have begun to impact the foundation building in their twenties and thirties, and even so, the success rate is not high, and it is estimated that they will be forty-five years old when they hit the foundation building themselves. ”
Get out of the basement, open the door, and stand under the eaves.
At this time, it was late at night, the night was like water, everything was quiet, Chen Li looked at the starry sky in the distance.
After a moment of relaxation, he opened the game panel.
In the past half a year, his scolding technique, flash technique, and palm thunder have all been practiced to the top, and the remaining few techniques that focus on practice, except for the stealth technique, which are still at the expert level, the rest have advanced to the grandmaster level.
But he only glanced at these skills.
Finally, look at longevity.
'Lifespan: 43,140 years'
"Life expectancy is growing slower and slower, and if you can't break through the foundation, it is estimated that living to 150 years old is the limit...... Now that we've come this far, we have to fight no matter what, just in case! Chen Li secretly made up his mind in his heart.
"And if you want to build a foundation, you have to have a foundation building Dan, the success rate of building a foundation is extremely low, without the assistance of Building a foundation Dan, I'm afraid it is even lower and pitiful, and now you have to start preparing."
Fortunately, in terms of money, he has never been short of money.
Some time ago, he put the extra magic robes on hand, including storage bags, except for those that were too sensitive, he shot them one after another.
Three storage bags, gave Zhou Hong one, and he sold all the rest, and this one alone sold one hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones, and the unprecedented savings reached 1,018 medium-grade spirit stones (including four high-grade spirit stones).
I'm afraid that some of the down-and-out foundation builders are not as rich as him.
"In addition, the situation has become more and more wrong recently, not long ago, it was rumored that an elder of the Immortal Sect was seriously injured when he went out...... Alas, since the crossing to the present, this area has never really been peaceful. ”
Chen Li shook his head and stayed alone outside for a while.
He closed the door and went back to his bedroom.
Zhou Hongzheng was sleeping in the spring of Begonia, he lifted the quilt and went to bed, hugged the beauty in his arms, and soon fell asleep.
……
Half a month later.
Chen Li followed the crowd into the Luanluo City Auction House, this was the first time he had walked into this kind of place, it was chaotic, there was talk everywhere, most of them were wearing masks or hoods, covering their ears and eyes, and they knew how to be low-key and cautious.
Like Chen Li, who was unabashed, there were very few, and he found a corner to sit down.
The auction house here will auction once a month, specializing in the business of Qi cultivation and scattered cultivation, and there are very few Zhuji Sects, obviously there are other trading channels, and the Zhuji Dan of the Immortal Sect will also flow out here, but only one will be auctioned each time.
It didn't take long for the auction to begin.
The host of the auction, a Qi cultivator walked up to the stage.
After talking about the scene and the rules of the auction, the auction begins.
A warm-up thing, a rare clock-like high-grade magic vessel.
The starting price was only one medium-grade spirit stone, and it was quickly won at the price of six medium-grade stones.
Chen Li found that there were all kinds of things in the auction, such as magic weapons, magic robes, elixirs, exercises, etc., everything was available, and the price was moderate, which attracted a lot of casual cultivators to bid one after another, and the atmosphere was quite warm.
There are a lot of things that he has never heard of before, and he has gained a lot of knowledge.
He even saw the auction of 'evil powder'
The so-called evil powder is the powder left after the evil spirit is purified by the evil talisman.
After listening to the host's introduction, he understood that this kind of powder can be used to expel evil spirits, and it may have a unique breath, but all evil spirits avoid this powder, instinctive disgust, and the price is also cheap, a porcelain bottle only needs five lower grade spirit stones.
A total of fifty bottles, which were sold out quickly.
Chen Li didn't look down on these things, and he didn't hold back.
For some exercises, secret arts, etc., although there is an occasional heartbeat, but it is not necessary to think about it, or finally give up, what he lacks most now is time, and to learn more exercises and secret techniques, he needs to share more energy.
Miscellaneous is not as good as fine.
If you have this time, you might as well brush up the swordsmanship and spell levels.
"Jinguang talisman preparation notes, the content has been identified, there are no omissions, I won't introduce this, I think you all know that the starting price is five medium-grade spirit stones, and each time the price is increased by more than one medium-grade spirit stone, the opportunity is rare and should not be missed." The host of the auction said loudly.
As soon as the voice fell, no one bid for a long time.
The golden light talisman is the top talisman of the Qi training period.
Only a talisman who has reached the eighth level of Qi cultivation is barely capable of drawing, but there are not many such characters in the entire Luanluo City.
It took a long time for a few people to raise their hands.
"Six!"
"Seven!"
……
"Ten, and there are no higher." The host was hoarse.
"Eleven...... Eleven at a time! ”
Chen Li finally couldn't help but raise his hand.
As a talisman master, he has no resistance to the preparation of this top-level talisman in the Qi cultivation period.
"Okay, twelve!"
Another competitor apparently didn't give up.
The price of the two kept biting tightly, until Chen Li calmly shouted to sixteen, and finally won it.
The auction lasted more than three hours before the real finale came up.
"The last lot is Tsukidan, and the starting price is 100 medium-grade spirit stones."
As soon as the words fell.
Someone shouted one hundred and fifty.
……
"One hundred and sixty!"
"One hundred and seventy!"
A total of more than a dozen people competed, and the price kept climbing.
"One hundred and eighty!" Chen Li raised his hand and shouted.
No wonder Bai Jinwang has been running around before, desperately earning spirit stones, it is really too expensive to build a foundation pill, where to buy it for general qi cultivation in the late stage.
The price was shouted until 200 pieces, and the originally fierce scene gradually cooled down.
"Two hundred and ten!" Chen Li raised the price again, even he was a little secretly painful, and all his savings couldn't buy five.
This price finally completely defeated the other bidder.
"Two hundred and ten, is there any price increase?"
"Once, twice, three deals!"
……
After the auction, Chen Li handed over 226 medium-grade spirit stones to the auction house and took two lots.
After going out, he felt that he was being targeted, he couldn't help but shake his head, where did this confidence come from, he didn't want to have a conflict, and quickly changed his face and got rid of the stalker.
"This is Tsukidan!"
Tsukidan was packed in a porcelain vase, sealed with beeswax, he picked up the porcelain vase and sniffed it, and suddenly a rich medicinal fragrance rushed straight to his nose, and the spiritual power in his body seemed to be slightly active.
"It's so powerful!"
"But one is not very safe, so you still have to prepare one." Chen Li said secretly in his heart.
He put Tsukidan back in his storage bag, and he walked out of the talisman room.
Zhou Hong and Zhang Shuniang are chatting.
"Lady, why are you free today, your father let you out?" Chen Li asked with a smile.
Since breaking through the third layer of Qi training, Zhang Shuniang has not often come to visit the door, and has been stared at by Zhang Yan to learn the craft of talisman making, every time she sees it, it is like a prison wind, sneaky.
"Uncle, I've learned to ward off evil charms!" Zhang Shuniang smiled with a smile.
"Talented!" Chen Li said.
"If you can learn to ward off evil charms, you won't be hungry to death in the future, I think back then, your uncle still made a living by drawing evil talismans!" Zhou Hong said with a smile.
"Hee-hee, that's what my dad said."
While he was talking and laughing, there was a sudden commotion outside.
Chen Li walked out of the door quickly, and when he inquired, he learned that an elder of the Immortal Sect had been assassinated in the city in full view of everyone.
He couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Counting the one who was seriously injured last month, for two months in a row, the strength of the Immortal Sect has been almost halved, and this is about to start chaos."
