Chapter 47: Bottlenecks

Five years later, the second young master's appearance has not changed in the slightest, which is also the characteristic of the water attribute exercises, but his body is much stronger than before, and the whole person also feels a lot more mature, and his cultivation has also reached the peak of the eighth layer of qi refining, which is only one step away from the ninth layer of qi refining.

In fact, as early as half a year ago, it reached the peak of the eighth layer of qi refining, but it encountered a bottleneck, and then there was no further progress, so it had to be carefully polished to make it more refined, but it still hit the bottleneck in the later stage several times without success.

With the second young master's spiritual root qualification of the three attributes of water, wood and fire, it is not surprising that he has encountered a bottleneck.

The most enviable thing about the Heavenly Spirit Root is that there is no bottleneck before the Yuan Infant Stage, as long as the resources are sufficient, you can cultivate all the way to the Jindan Stage unimpeded, which is really worthy of being the pride of the sky.

The second young master once again failed to hit the bottleneck, and thought a little depressed, deciding that he couldn't go on like this, and he had to solve the bottleneck problem first.

According to the materials he has read in the library in the past, there are three ways to break through the current bottleneck:

The first is to break through the battle between life and death, there is a great terror between life and death, which can greatly stimulate the potential of the monk, and the probability of breaking through the bottleneck is very high, but the great terror between life and death is not something that everyone can face calmly, so there are still a few people who choose this method.

The second is to buy the pill that breaks through the bottleneck, and uses the power of the pill to ablate the bottleneck to achieve the effect of breaking through, but the pill that breaks through the bottleneck wants to be in short supply, and it rarely appears, and once it appears, it will cause many monks to rob, and the price is often extremely high, which is not something that ordinary monks can afford.

The third is to carefully polish the mana, repeatedly impact the bottleneck, and accumulate over time, it is also possible to succeed, but the time it takes is a bit long, maybe a few years, or a few decades. This is also a method commonly used by most casual cultivators and ordinary sect monks, after all, the pill that breaks through the bottleneck is expensive, and at least it is a thousand spirit stones to base it, making countless ordinary monks helpless.

The second young master was inclined to the second type, and he decided to immediately set off to go to the nearby Fang Market to see if he could buy an elixir that broke through the bottleneck. At the same time, if you polish your mana, maybe the bottleneck will loosen that day, and it's not impossible.

If both of the above fail, then in order to break through the bottleneck earlier, the second young master will participate in some dangerous missions, break through the bottleneck through life-and-death battles, and seize the opportunity of that wisp of the avenue!

After thinking about it for a while, the second young master thought about it, and still planned to ask that Senior Sister Li Qiuyun Li if there was any news about this kind of elixir.

This Senior Sister Li is long-sleeved and good at dancing, and she has a wide range of contacts in the door, and she is the most well-informed among the familiar peers.

Out of the small bamboo building, the second young master arrived in front of Li Qiuyun's small bamboo building.

took out a transmission note and flew towards the small bamboo building, the transmission note was not blocked by the prohibition, seeing this, the second young master waited patiently.

"Crunch" The door of the bamboo building slowly opened.

Because of her cultivation in the building, she was dressed very casually, a white gauze covered her delicate body, and her long black hair was draped casually over her shoulders, perhaps it was a problem with the material of the sarle, or maybe it was because the immortal cultivator's eyesight was too good, and the second young master could faintly see the scenery.

He moved slightly, looked away, didn't dare to look more, and forcibly suppressed the "abnormal movement" of his body.

Li Qiuyun was actually quite surprised by the arrival of the second young master, because the second young master rarely went out and visited friends except for tasks. Maybe it was because she had just finished cultivating, but at this time, her expression was a little lazy, no longer arrogant, and her voice had a hint of softness.

"Senior Brother Zhang is really a rare guest, come in and sit down!"

She chuckled lightly and walked towards the cave with the second young master.

The second young master looked at the furnishings in the building, neat, small and exquisite, and there were several pots of good-looking flowers and plants placed in all corners of the cave, which was pleasing to the eye. It seems that some kind of incense is used, and there is a faint fragrance in the air.

The two of them made their way to the hall and sat opposite each other at a wooden table.

Li Qiuyun stretched out his hand to bring the second young master a cup of spiritual tea, brushed the few strands of hair scattered on his forehead, pinned them behind his ears, and then asked him about his intention.

"I can't hide it, the reason why the junior brother took the liberty of bothering this time is because he has reached the peak of the eighth layer of qi training, and he has not made the slightest inch of cultivation for half a month, so I want to ask the senior sister to take a look, I don't know if the senior sister has such news."

The second young master took a sip of spiritual tea, only to feel that his lips and teeth were fragrant, and he organized the language for a while before he said so, but he hid the fact that he had been stuck in the bottleneck for half a year and changed it to half a month.

When Li Qiuyun heard this, he gave him a blank look and said:

"The pill that breaks through the bottleneck is extremely rare, and the one on the sect's exchange list has long been exchanged, and once this pill is refined, it has already been booked by many monks who have a way. If there was news of this elixir, Senior Sister would have bought it herself, and she wouldn't have been stuck on the bottleneck of the eighth layer of Qi refining for two years, which round would get you! ”

The second young master was a little disappointed when he heard this, he still underestimated the rarity of the pill that helped break through the bottleneck, and saw that he couldn't get useful news from here, and a few other familiar fellow disciples were probably similar to her, so he must have asked in vain, so he had to find another way to think about it in the long run.

Seeing that he couldn't get the news he wanted, the second young master's interest was greatly reduced, and he didn't want to stay for a long time, so he reluctantly chatted with Li Qiuyun for a few words, drank the spiritual tea in the cup, and praised a few words loudly:

"Good tea, this tea is really good, the lips and teeth are fragrant and evocative, the junior brother still has important things to do, next time I come to the senior sister here to taste the spiritual tea, farewell!"

After speaking, the second young master arched his hand to Li Qiuyun, offered his farewell, and turned to leave.

"Hmph"

How could Li Qiuyun not understand what this junior brother meant, she snorted coquettishly and didn't make a sound. After the second young master left Li Qiuyun's cave mansion, he had no idea how to get the pill to break through the bottleneck for a while, he was just an ordinary outer disciple before, he was not good at communication, and there were no close elders in the sect to think of a way.

If it is a cultivator family or a person with a teacher, if the cultivator gives the elixir to his own elders, the path is smoother than that of ordinary monks, and I don't know how much.

Secretly sighed for a while, and his heart seemed to be clouded with a layer of haze, since he couldn't think of a way in the sect, he could only go to Fang City to try his luck.

Again, the second young master still wants to go home again, and plans to buy some pills and items for mortals in Fang City.

Thinking of this, the second young master threw a wind control technique for himself and flew towards Haoyuefang City.

In the evening, the glow emitted by the moonstone in the bronze lamp illuminated the city of Haoyuefang as bright as day.

A monk wearing a hat and a black veil on his face, who looked inconspicuous at all, mixed in with the crowd and walked into the market.

This person is naturally the second young master, his pace is steady, walking slowly on the wide street, and he can't see that he is anxious because he can't get the pill to break through the bottleneck.

Looking at the monks who came towards them, they were either happy or sad, some of them were down, some were dressed in brocade clothes and were full of energy, and after a long time, the second young master's somewhat impatient heart gradually calmed down and restored the state of the ancient well without waves.

After his mind calmed down, the Second Young Master walked quickly towards Qingdan Hall, where the Second Young Master had purchased pills five years ago.

Over the years, in addition to occasionally helping people refine the Qingling Pill, I have occasionally sold some pills, and there are about eight hundred spirit stones in the storage bag minus the consumption, but just in case, it is better to prepare some more spirit stones.

The second young master walked into Qingdantang, this shop has not changed much in the past five years, the business is tepid, and there are these customers in front of the counter bargaining with the guys.

The shopkeeper is still Li Yucheng, who is holding an ancient book and flipping through it, but his face looks even older, and his back is a little hunched.

Li Yucheng glanced at this mysteriously dressed monk, and did not recognize the second young master at the first time, until the second young master spoke up, and then he remembered.

"Shopkeeper Li hasn't seen him for many years and is still old and strong, I don't know if you can still remember the old man?"

The second young master walked over and said calmly.

Most cultivators have amazing memories, and as long as they have seen one time, it is basically difficult to forget.

As soon as the second young master spoke up at this time, Li Yucheng immediately recalled:

"It turned out to be Zhang Daoyou, Daoyou hasn't come to our store for a long time, I'm afraid it's been five years, but I often think that you can come to our store again!"

He said hello with a smile on his face, and led the second young master to a room where no one was talking. Beckoned the second young master to sit down, poured a cup of spiritual tea, and chatted with the second young master.

"I wonder if your store has any pills for sale that break through the bottleneck during the Qi refining period?"

The second young master took a sip of spiritual tea, not forgetting the purpose of this trip, although he felt that it was extremely unlikely that this kind of small shop would have this kind of elixir, but he still asked with a glimmer of hope.

Hearing this, Li Yucheng put down the teacup, smiled slightly wryly, and said:

"Our store mainly sells the mana pill for the Qi refining period, as for the pill that breaks through the bottleneck, basically the owner will only put two pills in every ten years to attract customers, but they have all been sold, and it is estimated that there will be no more in recent years."

Shopkeeper Li said apologetically.

"Then Shopkeeper Li has news of the auction." The second young master asked unrelentingly.

"Zhang Daoyou, there is no information about the auction in the near future, I will help Daoyou pay attention to one or two," shopkeeper Li said helplessly.

The Second Young Master left the Qingdan Hall after purchasing some pills taken by mortals. Then I ran a few more stores and still found nothing.
