Chapter 8: Difficulties in Cultivation
Starfall's Day of Worship brings with it the nostalgia of the living for the dead, though on this day, the entire Starfall Lands is immersed in grief.
But at the same time, all those who have experienced that natural disaster know very well that they can survive the disaster and survive such a tragic natural disaster, and naturally they cannot keep their hearts on that day forever, they still need to face up to the unknown future and live with their heads held high.
Xingchen Xiaolou is a small bookstore run by Yi Chen, the store is divided into two floors, the second floor is three very simple rooms, two of which are Yi Chen and Yi Zixuan's bedrooms, and the remaining one is used as a storage place for rare books in the people.
As for the first floor, it is much more spacious, as a small bookstore, there are naturally many wooden shelves for all kinds of books, which can be provided for people who need to rest or read books.
However, if you want to enjoy the comfort of these tables and chairs, you need to pay some money, of course, the cost is not very high, only a little.
Yi Chen is also a living person, so he naturally needs daily expenses, and he also has a sister Yi Zixuan who needs him to support, so it is not too much to charge a little fee.
This business model is also a result of Yi Chen's whim, from the beginning to the present for nearly three years, the effect is also very good, can be enough for their daily expenses.
In the Starfall Land, the natural disaster caused by the meteorite that fell from the sky could not help but destroy the cultivation environment in this area, and even many cultivation books that were treasured or looted by the great forces were also turned into ashes with that impact, and this also caused that in the Starfall Land today, it is very difficult for practitioners who have just stepped into the path of cultivation to acquire cultivation knowledge, and the ways are also limited.
In this case, although there are not many books in the Stardust Building, because Yi Chen himself has a lot of books in hand, plus some old classics collected and bought from the Starfall Land, whether it is books such as anecdotes that ordinary people love, or classics related to cultivators in their early cultivation, although they will be slightly insufficient in quantity, but they are all things that are lacking at the moment.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Stardust Small House is the best choice.
Of course, Yi Chen is also a cultivator after all, and cultivation is an indispensable lesson for him.
Most of the time during the day is spent on the operation of the Stardust Building, and at night it is also necessary to practice well, so a relatively quiet cultivation room is inevitably needed.
In the Stardust Building, the cultivation room built by Yi Chen naturally chose an underground secret room, which would not only be very safe, but also reduce the interference of the outside world to him.
At this time, in this cultivation room, Yi Chen had already entered a meditative state, and the breath on the whole person was very stable, although the breath was very weak, it had a very compact sense of rhythm, full of inexplicable charm.
The surrounding invisible aura also entered his body with his exhalation and inhalation, forming a small stream of gray spiritual qi, which was purified and refined in the first step through each of the opened meridians in his body, so as to remove most of the impurities.
Then he successively entered several acupoints in his body that had already been opened, further purified and refined, and finally turned into three wisps of true qi that were far superior to each other in terms of purity and quality.
Then it recirculates and enters the meridians again, and with the operation of Yi Chen, it comes to the dantian, which is extremely important to every practitioner.
When these three wisps of true qi came to the dantian, Yi Chen, who was meditating and meditating, moved his mind, and a true qi Yuan Dan the size of a soybean and emitting a misty gray light appeared, and after rotating several times, he inhaled the three wisps of true qi formed by him after tempering.
After a burst of high-speed rotation, the gray light that enveloped the True Qi Yuan Dan flashed slightly, and the size of the True Qi Yuan Dan increased slightly.
Although this trace is very small, for today's Yichen, this progress still makes him feel very satisfied.
After sinking down and repeating it several times, a feeling of exhaustion also appeared in Yi Chen's mind, knowing that he had reached the limit, so he didn't hesitate, and after taking a deep breath, he dispersed the scattered heaven and earth aura gathered in his body, and returned it to heaven and earth.
"I didn't expect that the aura in this area would have so many impurities after that catastrophe, and what was even more tricky was that these impurities had been intertwined with the aura of heaven and earth, and it was difficult to separate them with ordinary cultivation methods, which was a bit troublesome", after sinking his heart for a moment, Yi Chen couldn't help but be secretly frightened in his heart, and the expression on his face became more and more heavy.
There is no other reason, the cultivation of low-level cultivators needs to absorb the aura that is free from heaven and earth, which is also commonly known as the aura of heaven and earth, in order to improve their own cultivation and strength.
And the higher a cultivator's cultivation, the greater the demand for heaven and earth aura, and similarly, the pursuit of heaven and earth aura essence purity is naturally higher.
This is because the purer the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi can not only greatly speed up the cultivation speed of the cultivator, but also allow the cultivator to save a lot of time spent on refining the spiritual energy, thus greatly reducing the time it takes for the practitioner to break through to the next realm.
More importantly, the more refined the aura of heaven and earth, the more powerful and pure the true yuan cultivated in the cultivator's body becomes, which will not only bring about an increase in the strength of the cultivator, but also be more conducive to the cultivator's breakthrough in the realm.
But in terms of Yi Chen's current situation, the meridians and acupoints in his body had gradually turned gray, and it looked like it had been coated with a layer of cement, especially the situation of the True Qi Yuan Pill in his dantian was even more serious.
The reason for this is because of the aura of heaven and earth that exists in the land of starfall, although most of the impurities have been discharged from the body with the breath of Yi Chen, there are still a lot of impurities remaining in the meridians and acupoints, and after a long period of precipitation, it has formed its current appearance.
If Yi Chen continues to absorb the aura in the Starfall Land for a long time, I am afraid that in the near future, the meridians and acupoints in his body will be completely hardened, and once the true yuan in his body is activated, it will definitely cause irreparable consequences.
And Yi Chen's contemplation at this time was to find a way to solve this change, so that he could continue to cultivate without worries.
However, in his current situation, the only thing that made him feel a little at ease was that there would not be much danger before he raised his cultivation to the peak of his current realm.
As long as he shortened the time for each cultivation in the next period of time, it wouldn't cause more trouble in his actions, and he would have enough time to obtain the things that removed these impurities, so there was no need to rush it.
After thinking about this, Yi Chen's eyes flashed in the deep voice, and then a storage bag engraved with the word "Zhu" appeared in his hand.
Looking at the storage bag in front of him, a few traces of responsibility flashed in Yi Chen's eyes, and a touch of relief then appeared.
That's right, the storage bag that appeared in Yi Chen's hand was naturally Zhu Jin's one, as for why it appeared in Yi Chen's hand, it was naturally because he was one of the three people who called himself a nocturnal walker that night, that is, the person known as "Xiao Yi".
Looking at the storage bag belonging to Zhu Jin in front of him, Yi Chen eliminated the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and there was some expectation in his eyes, after all, this was a storage bag for a cultivator who had already reached his current cultivation realm, and the owner was the head of the Zhu Jin Hunting Group, which was quite famous in Starfall City, and there must be many things in it.
It's just that after he opened it, looking at the few things inside, Yi Chen's heart felt extremely disappointed.
Although there were many things in the storage bag, most of them were some gold and silver treasures, which looked like Zhu Jin's accumulation over many years, although it had a lot of role in Starfall City, but it was also for ordinary cultivators.
With Yi Chen's current cultivation realm, these gold and silver treasures do not have much effect on him, it can be said that they are all things outside his body, dispensable.
In addition, some medicinal materials and minerals that Zhu Jin had gathered from his hunting this time, as well as some beast fur and scale armor that were very outstanding in defensive effect, seemed to have a lot of value.
And the most precious thing is the bottle of pills that Zhu Jin treasured, looking at the two pills shining with green light in the white jade bottle, Yi Chen was naturally overjoyed in his heart, although there were only two emerald green pills inside, the whole looked round and clean, exuding a faint green light.
With just one glance, Yi Chen could see that these were two extremely high-quality healing pills, even with his current ability, he couldn't do it like this.
For a place like Starfall City, where battles often take place, these two pills are even more well-deserved treasures, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are hard to find.
However, just as he was about to end there, he suddenly noticed that there was a slight rectangular bulge on the corner of the box containing the animal skin, and a corner of a wooden box appeared on the edge of the box.
Feeling a little puzzled in his heart, Yi Chen took out all the animal skins one by one, and finally the wooden box with a short arm length and a very beautiful carving was held by Yi Chen in his hand.
At the first time he held the box, even through the wood of the box, Yi Chen could feel the coldness that appeared in his palm, and his face was even more confused.
And after he opened the box, he saw an object that appeared in front of his eyes, and extreme shock suddenly appeared in his eyes, but it was only for a moment, Yi Chen couldn't help but shout in surprise: "Diyan liquid !!"
