Chapter 171: My Own Way

"That's right, it's Tsukidan. Senior brother doesn't know much about Zhuji, do you want me to explain it to you?" Yunli looked at Zhou Shu with a smile, his attitude sincere.

For Zhou Shu, who did not have a master, this was a rare opportunity, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Please ask Senior Brother Yun to advise, Senior Brother will listen to you." ”

For cultivators, building a foundation is the real threshold for cultivating immortals, and from then on, they will be reborn, without eating, without any diseases, and will no longer be mortals.

There are three ways to build a foundation, build a foundation directly, build a foundation with a foundation Dan, and build a foundation with spiritual objects.

After the cultivator completes the Qi Refining Realm, he can directly build the foundation, and the advantage is that he does not need to spend anything, but the disadvantage is that once the foundation building fails, the cultivator only has two endings, either the body is lost, or the spirit is seriously injured, and it may not be able to recover in seven or eight years, and the possibility of major injury is many times greater than death.

Because of this, many cultivators are stuck in the consummation of the Qi Refining Realm, and they don't dare to build a foundation at all, such as the two dark cultivators of the Zhang family, once the foundation building fails, they will lose their value, and the consequences will be worrying.

And with the foundation of Zhujidan, there is no such worry.

Tsukidan will not increase the success rate of a cultivator's foundation building, nor will it increase the strength of a cultivator, but it can perfectly protect a cultivator. Cultivators who build a foundation with the Tsukuji Dan will not die even if the foundation building fails, and even if the spirit is damaged, it will only take a few months to recover.

But Tsukidan wasn't so good.

This kind of pill without grade, one is worth more than 20,000 medium-grade spirit stones, and it is difficult to buy.

This is because there are many kinds of materials needed to refine the Tsukidan and they are precious, ranging from the first order to the fourth order, and basically only the larger sects can collect them all. Even if the small sect has a Dan master, it can't find the materials to refine it.

In the world of cultivating immortals. Most cultivators build foundations directly. There are very few cultivators who can afford to use Tsukidan.

After listening to the introduction of the two kinds of foundation building, Zhou Shu pointed to the spirit grass, "Senior brother wants me to choose one of the two, that spirit grass is the spirit object used to build the foundation?"

"Yes, it's called Condensing Sword Grass, a third-order spirit grass, and it is also used for foundation building, but ......" Yun Li stopped talking again.

"But what?"

Yunli looked at Zhou Shu. One word at a time, he said, "Build a foundation with condensing sword grass, if you fail, you will definitely die." ”

"The point is, what's in it for you?"

Yun Li's expression was quite cautious, and he said the third way to build a foundation.

Use spiritual objects such as spirit grass, spirit fish, and spirit fruit to impact the foundation.

The use of spiritual objects in the process of foundation building may allow the cultivator to let the spiritual objects transform the body while taking off the mortal womb, so as to obtain certain characteristics of the spiritual objects. For cultivators, this can only be done at the only point of foundation building, and not at any other time. If you miss it, you won't have it.

But the advantages and disadvantages of this approach are extremely obvious and polarizing.

The success rate of foundation building decreases. And the cultivator will endure great suffering, once the body can't withstand it, the foundation building fails, it is an immediate death, there is absolutely no other possibility, but once it endures, according to the fit between the spiritual object and the cultivator, the cultivator will get additional benefits - stimulate the potential, the strength rises, the higher the fit, the greater the benefit, if the spiritual object and the cultivator fit perfectly, the cultivator may obtain a special characteristic, but the probability is very low, one in ten thousand.

Zhou Shu realized, "Condensing Sword Grass, if you use it to build a foundation successfully, it will be of great benefit to sword cultivation?"

"Yes. It is rumored that the condensing sword grass is the transformation of the ancient power's sword intent, if the foundation is successfully built with it, the cultivator may be more friendly to the sword, and it will be easier to comprehend the sword intent, if it fits perfectly, you can even comprehend the ancient sword intent, but this probability is close to zero, don't think too much. ”

Yun Li looked at Zhou Shu quite cautiously, "Now you can choose well, be cautious, this is a very crucial step for cultivators." ”

"Thank you for your advice, my brother is grateful. ”

Zhou Shu bowed seriously.

The problem of building the foundation was bothering him before, but he didn't want to be clearly solved now.

Yunli's guidance was extremely detailed, and he spoke for half an hour, and he also learned a lot of knowledge that could not be obtained from the classics.

The sect gave him such a rare Tsukidan, which also represents sincerity, and it seems that after several tests, he has really been recognized by the sect.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Shu suddenly said, "Can you choose both?"

"No, they can't be used at the same time. ”

Zhou Shu nodded, "Then I'll build Jidan." ”

"You chose Tsuki-dan?"

Yun Li was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhou Shu with a lot of surprise in his eyes, and after a while, this surprise turned into disappointment.

Zhou Shu nodded and repeated, "Yes, Tsukidan." ”

Yun Li sighed slightly, "Senior brother is also right, if you use the condensing sword grass to build the foundation, you will die if you fail, it is indeed difficult to accept, it makes sense to choose a stable foundation building Dan." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Zhou Shu and couldn't help but say again, "But junior brother, have you ever thought that no matter what way you build the foundation, the success rate will not increase. ”

This sentence is indeed well-intentioned, like the teachings of a teacher.

Yunli, who was about to condense his veins, knew very well that in the world of cultivating immortals, the foundation building realm was a watershed, and most of the accomplished cultivators used spiritual objects to build the foundation, and the starting point was one step higher, and they would surpass ordinary people in the future. And Tsukidan is only for mediocre people, and with Tsukidan, it is difficult to have a good future unless you encounter great opportunities.

As a senior brother who has always paid attention to Zhou Shu, seeing Zhou Shu's various performances, he doesn't want Zhou Shu to become a mediocre person.

When Zhou Shu heard Yun Li's words, he was also very grateful in his heart, "Thank you Senior Brother Yun for your guidance, Senior Brother understands in his heart." ”

Yunli frowned, "Do you understand why you still chose Zhujidan?"

Zhou Shu laughed, "Because Zhuji Dan is expensive." ”

A flash of anger flashed in Yunli's eyes, and he reprimanded, "Ridiculous!"

"Senior brother, don't be angry," Zhou Shu hurriedly explained, "The first is indeed because the Zhuji Dan is rare and expensive, and it is natural to ask for it, and the second is because I don't need the Condensing Sword Grass, but I will still use spiritual things to build the foundation and strive for a higher starting point." ”

Yun Li realized something, and looked at Zhou Shu with doubts, "Oh? What do you mean, are you using other spiritual objects?"

"Yes. ”

Zhou Shu nodded seriously, "If I use the Condensing Sword Grass to build the foundation, then the direction will be determined, and I will be destined to be a sword cultivator in the future." I don't want that, so I don't need to use the Sword Grass. ”

"Isn't sword cultivation good?"

Yun Li was quite puzzled, "In my opinion, although your qualifications are not good, you are very talented in sword skills, and being able to resist Elder Shen's Chunhui sword intent illustrates this. If you concentrate on sword cultivation, most of you will succeed, not to mention Yuanying, Jindan should not be difficult, but if you are distracted by others, you may not achieve anything. Otherwise, physical cultivation is okay, and I can convince Elder Shen to replace the Condensing Sword Grass with a black fish. ”

Yunli said sincerely, Zhou Shu was grateful in his heart, but he still shook his head, "Senior brother, I cultivate swords, but I don't do sword cultivation, I refine my body, I don't do physical cultivation, I don't want to do any cultivation." ”

Zhou Shu has always had his own thoughts, he will not do simple talisman cultivation or sword cultivation, physical cultivation or anything, that is tantamount to self-limitation, his goal is to become an immortal at ease, rather than focusing on things like swords and talismans, those are just means of cultivating immortals, not the end.

He has the ability to deduce calculations, no matter what he does, he can get twice the result with half the effort, Dan Fu Sword Array or even Zen, and so on, he will dabble in it when the time comes, and he will not be limited to one point.

"Cultivating swords, but not swordsmanship, refining the body, but not doing physical cultivation?"

Yun Li paused and thought for a while, "I see, I understand, but your idea is simple. If you don't devote yourself wholeheartedly to anything, it will be very difficult for you to attain the Tao in it, and if you can't attain the Dao, what can you talk about cultivating immortals? All cultivators attain the Tao from one thing, first attaining the Dao and then becoming immortals. Such as the way of the sword, the way of the Dan, etc., they have gone through thousands of years of accumulation, full of truth, as long as they understand through, there is a lot of hope for becoming an immortal. ”

"What Senior Brother said makes sense. ”

Zhou Shu nodded, was silent for a while, and then raised his head, his eyes flashed with an abnormal look, as rude as a star, "Most of those sword runes are crystallized after tens of millions of years of inheritance, and they do contain the method of becoming immortals, but how many people in the world have become immortals from them? Instead of struggling to find a way to become an immortal among countless fellow sword cultivators, it is better to try to create your own path. ”

"My own way. ”

Yun Li muttered a few words and stared at Zhou Shu, "Senior brother's ambition is really breathtaking." ”

For the first time, his face showed a surprised expression, and even with a little admiration, and now Zhou Shu has made a big difference in his eyes.

Zhou Shu hurriedly shook his head, "Senior brother talked a lot for a while, which made senior brother smile." ”

Yunli shook his head, "Since you have such ambitions, I won't say anything more, I hope you won't regret it in the future." ”

Zhou Shu was very serious, "I will definitely go on the path I have chosen." (To be continued.) )
