After drawing four talismans in a row, when the spiritual power was not enough, Zhou Shu inexplicably felt a throbbing of spiritual power, which radiated from the dantian and went from the bottom to the top.

"Are you going to break through?"

He nodded secretly, after breaking through the body refining realm, the long-stagnant cultivation had finally improved.

In fact, it should have come a long time ago, now that he has that thin film, his cultivation is not affected by the qi veins, but the refining body is undoubtedly distracted, making the fifth layer of the qi refining realm a long time late.

He put down the talisman pen and sat down peacefully.

An hour later, Zhou Shu successfully reached the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Realm.

The level is raised, and the qi sea is further expanded, but there seems to be nothing to mention, while the damaged qi sea expands, the loopholes above also increase at the same time, and the increased spiritual power storage is actually pitiful.

At the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm, many Qi Refining Realm cultivators are stuck here, and they can't go up to the next level, because from five to six, the cultivators will face the first level.

The first level is called Shun Qi.

The cultivator needs to enter a closed-door state, where the spiritual power does not enter or exit, and circulate endlessly in the body until all the qi veins that have been opened are unimpeded.

After the qi veins are opened, it is inevitable that there will be impurities left to hinder the spiritual power, and the impurities in the qi veins must be completely removed to make the qi veins more suitable for the passage of spiritual power.

This level is not difficult, but it takes a long time to persevere, and it takes more than three days to run the mental method continuously, without a moment of rest, and during this period, you have to endure countless pains, after all, impurities are not so easy to remove.

There are many cultivators who can't bear the long-term pain and would rather give up than continue, such as Yan Mengchu.

However, after this level, the cultivator's use of spiritual power will be faster and smoother, and he can also begin to practice some complex methods.

Zhou Shu would not face this problem, at the first level of the Qi Refining Realm, he had already passed this stage.

And from the seventh to the eighth floor, the second level encountered is called Yiqi.

Similarly, for the qi veins, the cultivator's spiritual power can only enter and exit for a period of time, and the qi veins will be expanded to the greatest extent.

There is still a need to persevere and endure pain, which is worse than the first level, at least more than five days.

Constantly transform the aura, and keep using the spiritual power to impact the qi veins until they no longer expand. There's nothing to worry about, cultivators at this stage have limited spiritual power, as long as they don't trigger a tide of spiritual power, the qi vein wall can completely withstand it, and it won't be damaged.

Depending on how long each person maintains it, the extent of the expansion of the qi veins is also different, in short, the longer the cultivator persists, the more good it will be for himself.

This level, Zhou Shu has also passed, at the cost of all the qi veins being destroyed.

The third level from the ninth to the tenth layer is called condensation.

It is not difficult to understand that condensation is to improve the quality of spiritual power and prepare for the foundation of detachment.

There are many methods of condensing qi, which are introduced in many classics, and the most common is to use the condensation pill to compress spiritual power and make it condense.

But Zhou Shu probably didn't need this.

In front of the mine, Xu Lie looked at Zhou Shu for a while, "Five floors?"

Zhou Shu nodded indifferently, "Hmm." ”

Xu Lie looked at Zhou Shu with a rare smile, "It's a little interesting, although the spiritual power is still only a little bit, but I am looking forward to you more and more." ”

Zhou Shu spread his hands, "Just give me more contributions." ”

Xu Lie suddenly changed his face, "Get out of the mine, don't be lazy!"

Two hours later, Zhou Shu walked out with an empty mining bag, with a hint of decadence on his face.

Xu Lie was very surprised, "Didn't dig it?"

"Nope. ”

Zhou Shu replied honestly.

It's not that he didn't notice that Xiao Roll stopped in the deepest part of the mine, and couldn't pull it up, obviously there must be something rich in spiritual energy.

Then he dug more than a foot deep for two hours, but he didn't dig out anything with aura.

This made Zhou Shu feel quite strange, but he also had more curiosity and expectation, hiding so deeply, I am afraid that it is a better ore than Lingshan gold.

"Hahaha!"

Xu Lie laughed, as if Zhou Shu's appearance was in line with his thoughts.

Zhou Shu was a little angry, "Senior brother, what are you laughing at?"

Xu Lie put away his laughter and said slowly, "That's right, otherwise I thought you had some special skills to find ores." Mining won't have results every day, it's normal now, how can you mine so much every day. ”

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be able to dig a good one tomorrow, and I'll surprise you. ”

Zhou Shu glanced sideways, put down the hoe and left.

Xu Lie laughed, "I'll wait." ”

Back in the Dust Washing Courtyard, Zhou Shu saw Zhu Dashan and Li Aojian at a glance, and the two of them were wandering around with nothing to do.

"Hey, why are you always so idle and don't want to go through the inner door?"

Zhou Shu has always been very curious about this, and as the relationship between several people gets better and better, he can't help but ask.

"Brother Zhou is back, let's go and drink. ”

When Zhu Dashan saw Zhou Shu, he hurriedly walked over and pulled Zhou Shu to a small attic on the edge of the dust washing courtyard.

Entering the attic, it was a hidden wine shop, and many disciples were pushing cups and changing lamps, which was quite lively.

Several people found a place to sit down, and Zhou Shu drank a glass of pale red spirit wine, which was slightly fragrant and full of flavor.

"I said you two, you're really unmotivated, don't you really want to enter the inner door?"

Li Aojian smiled slightly, "Yes, of course I do." ”

"Then why don't you go and earn contributions? You see those outer disciples, in addition to working hard to do chores, when they are free, they either rent a few acres of spiritual land to plant the spiritual valley, or form a team to take on the task of hunting demons, what about you?"

Zhou Shu looked at the two of them, and he hated that iron could not become steel.

"I have a sword. ”

Li Aojian shook the long sword in his hand, and a trace of arrogance that he hadn't seen for a long time appeared on his face.

Zhou Shu frowned, "Talking about people." ”

"Okay, after half a year of entry, the outer sect disciples can learn the three first-order sword techniques of the Heyin Sect, and within three years, as long as they comprehend the sword intent of any kind of sword technique and defeat an inner sect disciple, they can enter the inner gate and stay in Chuiyun Peak or Guguang Peak. ”

Li Aojian put down his long sword and said lightly, "I am confident that I will do it, I will be like Elder Zhao Yueru, so I won't waste time elsewhere." ”

"Oh. ”

Zhou Shu thought thoughtfully, he had also seen this door rule.

But there have only been two outer disciples who have entered the inner gate through this rule for a hundred years.

For example, Elder Zhao Yueru, who first learned the sword technique, comprehended the sword intent within a year, entered the inner gate, and five years later, the sword intent turned into a shape, shocking the Qingyuan Mountain Range.

He doesn't have the same confidence in the sword technique as Li Aojian, and his qi and vein conditions are not able to use the sword technique normally now, as for the sword intent or something, it is also a little foggy, not to mention that he has to defeat an inner disciple, he has such a little spiritual power, so forget it.

The path wasn't for him, so he skipped it at the time.

Zhou Shu nodded and looked at Zhu Dashan, "You have a direction, no wonder, what about Zhu Dashan?"

"He, don't ask him, you will be angry when you mention it. ”

Li Aojian glared at Zhu Dashan with hatred in his eyes.

Zhu Dashan laughed, "Hehe, I really met the opportunity." ”

"What's going on?" Zhou Shu wondered.

Zhu Dashan nodded, with a satisfied smile, "The outer disciple who gave me the jade slip told me a few days ago that as long as I can open two hundred and fifty qi veins before refining the sixth layer of qi, he will have a way to let me enter the inner gate, I see that he is serious, so I simply believe him." ”

Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment, you are cheating, there is such a thing, okay......

The person who gave him the heart method is obviously a senior in the door, since he said so, there must be a way, Zhu Dashan is really a blessed person.

Li Aojian glanced at Zhu Dashan hatefully, "Old Zhu, how many qi veins have you opened now?"

"One hundred and seven!"

Zhu Dashan patted his chest, "I used to have only eighty-five qi veins, but now I have made too much progress!"

Zhou Shu gave a thumbs up, "It's amazing." ”

With a broken Qi vein, he can at least be regarded as a normal Qi Refining Cultivator.

Zhu Dashan's eyes were very serious, "I don't even refine my body much now, for fear of affecting the qi veins, so I only cultivate." ”

"It's okay, when you can refine qi, let's practice less body. ”

Zhou Shu nodded with emotion.

Li Aojian, who was silent for a while, glanced at the two of them, "Will we enter the inner door together in the future?"

"Of course, haha!"

"Hmm. ”
