Chapter 10: Eating pills

Xu Wei opened the door and saw that everything in the house was familiar to him, and the tables, chairs, sofas, and coffee tables in front of him were also quietly placed in their original positions, recalling the various times he had spent with his parents before, Xu Wei's tears also flowed inadvertently.

There used to be his hard-working and simple father here, his hard-working mother, and his family didn't know how many good memories he left here, but now he is alone here.

"Dad, Mom, I will definitely avenge you. Xu Wei gritted his teeth and said with tears in his eyes.

Although it was already more than three o'clock in the morning, Xu Wei didn't have any desire to sleep now, he quickly rummaged through the spirit ring, and found his grandfather's book after a while.

Xu Wei turned the title page of the book, ready to start from the beginning of the book, Xu Wei thought that now that he had half a foot in the cultivation circle, as long as he now had spiritual power in his body, he would be considered a real monk.

On the first page of the yellowed paper, two large characters were written vigorously and forcefully—Gathering Spirits.

What do you mean? This page is so big, and only these two words are written.

Xu Wei turned the page and saw that the first paragraph of the next page reads: If a monk wants to cultivate spiritual power, he first needs to practice how to absorb and refine the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, once the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is refined by the monk, it will become the energy in the monk's own body, after having spiritual power in the body, the monk's physical strength, endurance, explosive power, etc. will be far superior to ordinary people, and the monk needs to consume spiritual power in battle, the higher the level of the monk, the more spiritual power can be stored and refined in the body, and the more tricks can be displayed and stronger.

The following content of the first paragraph introduces the key points of cultivating spiritual power in detail, Xu Wei only felt a headache after reading it again, after closing the book, recalling the content written in the book, Xu Wei decided that no matter what, he still had to try it according to what was written in the book.

Xu Wei sat down cross-legged, straightened his body, his neck was upright, his chin was slightly tucked, his hands were knotted with the "Samadhi Seal", his eyes were slightly closed, and he adjusted his breathing according to the instructions in the book, and began to absorb the aura in heaven and earth.

Xu Wei only sat for ten minutes and felt sore, and it was difficult to sit still, but Xu Wei still insisted on maintaining this posture, the time passed for a long time, Xu Wei was sweating profusely, and finally couldn't help but open his eyes, and saw that the sky outside had gradually revealed the white of the fish belly, Xu Wei was a little annoyed, he spent half a night without gain, thinking that he would go to participate in the selection of new disciples in three days, but now he didn't even know how to absorb spiritual power, Xu Wei was very disappointed.

Xu Wei thought about it and felt that there might be something wrong with his own way, so he opened the book and decided to read the contents of the book carefully.

Xu Wei stared at the book and read it carefully for ten minutes, after discovering that his way was not wrong, Xu Wei's face was full of doubts, he suddenly understood that it was not so easy to be a monk, no wonder there are many ordinary people who cannot enter the cultivation circle in this life, and it may take a lot of work to gather the spirit alone, not to mention that in the spirit body realm, you have to constantly refine your own body, which is simply difficult for people without talent.

Xu Wei looked at the contents of these pages blankly, and suddenly Xu Wei's eyes stopped at the end of one of the words.

Grandpa added a few lines of small words at the end of this inconspicuous paragraph of text in small characters: Many people spend a lot of time and energy but are unable to find the mystery of gathering spirits, at this time, those who are unwilling to fail will often travel thousands of miles to some places where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is rich in cultivation, or take pills to assist themselves in cultivation, but forcibly taking pills to break through their own shackles is likely to cause damage to the foundation, so only a few people who are in a hurry will do so.

Xu Wei also saw these words just now, but he didn't particularly care about it, but at this moment, Xu Wei stared at these few lines of small words.

After a while, Xu Wei began to search in the spirit rings, and after a while, Xu Wei found six or seven porcelain bottles that looked like pills in the two spirit rings, Xu Wei opened these bottles one by one, and after confirming that they were indeed pills inside, he closed the bottles, and then placed these bottles neatly in front of him, and muttered in a low voice:

"Is it only a few people who are in a hurry to do that?"

Xu Wei didn't know what the bottles of pills were called, and he didn't know what these pills were for, he only knew that with his current ability, he couldn't do it at all if he wanted to spy on the mystery of gathering spirits within three days, if he didn't give it a go, he would probably not be able to pass the selection of new disciples after three days, he would not be able to enter the Spirit Sword Pavilion, he would not be able to become a monk, and he would become stronger to avenge his family, so what was the point of living alone in this world now?

Thinking that there was no one behind him, Xu Wei clenched his fists and finally made up his mind.

Xu Wei opened the first bottle and poured out all the pills in it, there were not many pills in this bottle, only five pills, the appearance was the same as the pill that Brother Feng said, the size of a sugar pill, the color was pure red, Xu Wei took out one of the five pills, and then put it in his mouth.

There was a faint aroma in the entrance of the pill, which was refreshing, and soon after Xu Wei ate it, he felt that all his fatigue today had been swept away, and the whole person was a little more energetic.

"That's a good thing!"

Xu Wei was excited, and after putting the remaining pills into the bottle, he hurriedly returned to the posture just now, the effect of the pill just now was obviously used to restore physical strength, but Xu Wei didn't know whether this pill had the effect of assisting cultivation, so Xu Wei immediately sat cross-legged and repeated the previous action.

Half an hour passed, but there was no movement in the body.

Xu Wei stopped and said to himself, "Could it be that you have eaten too little?"

Xu Wei poured out a red pill from the bottle again, thought for a moment and put it in his mouth, after eating this pill, Xu Wei obviously felt that his body was a lot more relaxed, and his mental state was also unprecedentedly good, Xu Wei did not dare to slack off, for fear that the effect of this medicine would be too much, so he quickly meditated.

Xu Wei's eyes were slightly closed, he tried to feel the pill in his body, this time Xu Wei seemed to have some feelings, he calmed down to adjust his breathing, and the time soon passed for another half an hour.

Xu Wei opened his eyes, and he found that he seemed to have a trace of spiritual power in his body, and these spiritual powers were barely obtained with the assistance of those two red pills, but if Xu Wei couldn't refine these spiritual powers in his body, even if he obtained more spiritual power, it would be useless.

Seeing that the sun was already shining outside, Xu Wei was stunned, he never realized that time was so precious to him, and now his strength was too low, he was as small as a grain of rice in the sea, Xu Wei was eager for strength, eager to gain strength quickly.

Xu Wei began to open all the bottles, he found that the main function of the red pill was to recover, if you want to rely on just eating this type of pill to quickly improve your strength, it is simply impossible, Xu Wei found a few plastic cups, and poured the pills in each bottle into the cups separately.

Soon Xu Wei was filled with seven plastic cups in front of him, four of the seven bottles of pills were red pills used for recovery, and the remaining three bottles of pills were brown pills in one bottle, one bottle was blue pills, and there was only one yellow pill in the remaining bottle, this pill looked obviously a little bigger than other pills, but it was still a small amount compared to the black beads.

Xu Wei put all the red pills used for recovery into a bottle, these pills for recovery were very precious to him, and Xu Wei felt that he would not use these pills for the time being.

After putting away the red pills, Xu Wei looked at the three plastic cups in front of him with a solemn face, if only these pills could be used to improve his strength, Xu Wei thought to himself.

Xu Wei picked up the brown pill on the far left, swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation, and then closed his eyes and meditated.

Half an hour later, Xu Wei found nothing.

Xu Wei sighed, and after putting away the brown pill bottle in the plastic cup, he picked up a blue pill, swallowed it without hesitation, and then closed his eyes and meditated again.

Half an hour later, nothing happened.

Xu Wei was puzzled, these two pills seemed to have no effect on improving strength, at least when he ate the two red pills just now, he could clearly feel that his physical strength and spirit had recovered a lot, but these two pills were in his stomach, but Xu Wei's body did not react, and Xu Wei did not dare to eat any more, for fear that these two pills were poisonous.

Xu Wei dared to try these pills and already took a big risk, if he still couldn't see any hope after eating these pills, Xu Wei would rather find a place with a strong aura to cultivate by himself than take such a risk.

After Xu Wei put the blue pill in the bottle, he looked at the last yellow pill, his face hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind and comforted himself:

"Just try this one last time. ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Wei swallowed the yellow pill into his stomach and began to close his eyes and meditate to absorb the effects of the medicine.

After only about ten seconds, Xu Wei felt something strange, there seemed to be a hot current in his lower abdomen burning himself, Xu Wei felt that his body was frantically absorbing the surrounding heaven and earth aura at the moment, and after the spiritual power entered his body, he did not simply stay in his body as he did just now, but was constantly refined with the help of that yellow pill, and then fused into the meridians in his body, Xu Wei was overjoyed, but the next moment, Xu Wei felt that something was wrong in his body.

This pill was still relatively slow when it first absorbed and refined the aura of heaven and earth, but as time went by, the speed became faster and faster, and Xu Wei found that his body could not support such a huge amount of energy at all.

But in a minute, Xu Wei felt that he was about to be blown up by this huge heaven and earth aura, those excess auras were slamming around in his body, and the spiritual power that was refined into the meridians was also restless, a rhythm that was about to burst out at any time, Xu Wei couldn't bear it anymore, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

Xu Wei thought that he would be able to stop the abnormality of his body by stopping meditation and absorbing spiritual power, but what Xu Wei didn't expect was that after he stopped meditating, the aura of heaven and earth was still surging from all directions, and the power was only strong and not weak.

Xu Wei suddenly exclaimed, he didn't expect the power of this pill to be so terrifying, if he didn't find a way to stop his current state, then he would definitely die today.

"Die? I must not die. Xu Wei shouted.

I don't have a bloody enemy, how can I die like this? It's just the aura of heaven and earth, either stop absorbing it, or just refine all of them.

But Xu Wei still doesn't know how to refine the aura, Xu Wei just wanted to open his grandfather's book to check, but in the next second, Xu Wei only felt that there was a mountain pressing on his body, his body was stiff, and he couldn't move, the heaven and earth aura in his body had been filled to the limit, and those crazy spiritual powers were about to tear Xu Wei's internal organs apart.

Xu Wei lay on the ground in pain, in front of him were the three bottles of pills he had just filled, Xu Wei didn't think about it, he used his last strength to open all three bottles of pills, and then ate wildly.
