Yuan Wuji was very happy to see that Ma Xie had also purchased the pill for himself, but when he thought of what Ma Xie said, he immediately frowned.

"You mean, let me practice with you two cultivators?" Yuan Wuji said.

"Don't you think you're too loose in your practice?" said Ma Xie.

I'm still at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm, and we alien beasts don't need to practice much, as long as we simply grow a good body. Yuan Wuji quibbled.

Ma Xie said: "Aren't you loose enough? I tried that Zhang Wan, although he is the sixth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, but he is only the first to enter the sixth layer, and his strength is mediocre, I don't know why you actually fought with him back and forth." If you want to go back to your hometown, I'm afraid that such a half-baked level will not work. ”

Yuan Wuji lowered his head and thought about it, knowing that what Ma Xie said was very reasonable, so he agreed to join the practice, after all, he wanted to return to his hometown as soon as possible.

There are not many spirit stones left on Ma Xie's body, but fortunately, the elixir purchased for Lei Shi is not very expensive, I heard that Ma Xie needs to buy a pill for his disciples in the innate realm, and the clerk enthusiastically recommended Ma Xie a "Zhuji Dan".

"We don't sell pills for mortals in the Mixed Yuan Building, so let's take this Tsukidan as a gift for you! The cultivator said enthusiastically.

Although Ma Xie only bought the most basic elixir, that cultivator liked Ma Xie very much, and this kind of cultivator who did not bargain, was not picky, and had a generous hand, must maintain a good relationship.

What's more, Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji don't seem to be very old, but they are already at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm, and if they can take out so many spirit stones at one time, then the cultivators regard them as the disciples of those great sects, and maintaining a good relationship with this kind of person will have a lot of benefits in the future.

Leaving the Mixed Yuan Building, at the instigation of Yuan Wuji, they went to a famous local restaurant to taste the food specially prepared for cultivators here.

"This is a meal made by cultivators, it can nourish the aura and warm the body, speaking of which, eating is also a kind of cultivation!" Yuan Wuji came to his favorite place, and his mood was extremely comfortable.

After a full meal, Ma Xie took the two of them back to the valley non-stop, and in the following days, Ma Xie was going to practice hard.

In this valley, the scenery is beautiful, and there are few people, and it is an excellent place for spiritual practice.

Ma Xie first laid out some formations nearby, and he can now arrange a third-level formation, as long as he uses the formation, Ma Xie has the confidence to resist the harassment of the so-called Giant Sword Society.

After observing the terrain, Ma Xie first arranged a phantom array, and ordinary cultivators and mortals, after entering the formation, would treat this place as a wasteland and leave on their own.

On the outside of the phantom array, Ma Xie laid out two more killing arrays, and if someone forcibly entered the inside, they would be attacked by the formation.

In the core area where they lived, Ma Xie laid down a battle array, which was set up according to his own combat habits, if a master broke in, then Ma Xie could exert his maximum combat power in it.

After everything was arranged, Ma Xie began to practice.

He took out the Mixed Yuan One Qi Pill and subdued it, preparing to expand his dantian to the limit of the second level.

After the elixir entered Ma Xie's body, a pure aura emanated from his body, instantly filling his limbs and bones.

The rest of the medicinal power went straight to Ma Xie's dantian.

Ma Xie's dantian suddenly expanded under the influence of aura, which caught Ma Xie off guard, and quickly controlled these aura, expanding his dantian little by little.

With the assistance of Xuanyang Jiusheng, these spiritual energies were slowly absorbed by Ma Xie's dantian, and Ma Xie also felt that there seemed to be a hot spring surging in his dantian, which was a sign of the expansion of the dantian.

It took about three days, and Ma Xie's dantian had reached its limit.

Ma Xie took a look inwardly and found that his dantian had sufficient spiritual energy, and there were indeed twenty qi.

"That's the benefit of the elixir. Ma Xie was very satisfied with this result, and in this way, a lot of time was saved.

And the next step is to hit the Dragon and Tiger Pass.

This is the first of the last three levels in the Qi Refining Realm, and how many cultivators are stuck here, unable to go any further.

The first six layers of the Qi Refining Realm are called refining and refining Qi, that is, turning the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into one's own body, guiding it with one's own true qi, and gradually transforming one's muscles, bones, meridians, viscera, divine consciousness, and dantian.

Ma Xie's realm at the moment is at the peak of this stage.

In all aspects of his physical body, he has surpassed the limit of mortals, which is the so-called "transcendental", which is the realm that many cultivators have pursued all their lives, and now Ma Xie has finally come to this point.

However, there was not much emotion in his heart, because this was not the end of the practice, on the contrary, it was only the beginning of the practice.

When the various organs and functions of the body surpass mortals, they can further cultivate and enter the realm of "refining qi and transforming gods".

Only after entering this realm, the physical body is further transformed into a higher life form, and when the three levels are completely passed, it is recognized by the nature of heaven and earth, and the real transcendent enters the "god" and enters a new realm - the Dan period.

After entering the realm of knotting, the cultivator can gradually communicate with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and all kinds of incredible abilities will slowly emerge, and eventually become like a god.

The first level of refining qi and transforming the gods is to completely stimulate the energy of the body, so that the practitioner's body is always in the most active state, and as long as the mind is not destroyed, the body will not age, and the eternal "dragon and tiger" will be "alive and vibrant", which is the so-called "dragon and tiger pass".

As long as the cultivators who enter the Dragon and Tiger Pass, even if the limit is approaching, the activity of the physical body will not be significantly aged, but only slightly affected, so they will hardly have the situation of "being afraid of being weak and strong" because they are too old.

It's just that as the life span increases, the soul fire of the cultivator will gradually be extinguished, and this is the real reason for their death.

And how to ensure that the fire of the soul is not extinguished is a question that cultivators who pursue immortality have been pursuing.

Many cultivators who have cultivated to a high level will have almost no physical body that will ever die after reaching a certain realm, and even if their soul dies, their physical body will continue to exist for a long time.

It is said that this kind of cultivator, with the power released by the dead body alone, is enough to crush a cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm to pieces.

"Dragon and Tiger Pass. Ma Xie silently recited the name of this level in his heart, which was the starting point of his transcendence of mortal beings and the pursuit of the ultimate path of cultivators: "From now on, I will truly embark on the path of cultivation." ”

Xuanyang Jiusheng is constantly running in Ma Xie's body, and he must now continue to use his aura to continue to temper his body, so that he can keep his body in the best state, and then break through to the Dragon and Tiger Pass in one fell swoop.

Flesh and blood, bones, meridians, internal organs, sea knowledge, and dantian reached the best state under the action of aura, just like in battle.

However, Ma Xie was still not satisfied, so he summoned all the golden needles and laid down the "Golden Needle Battle Body" to further activate his body.

Then, Ma Xie summoned his own "Ma Family Blood Battle Body", and the red aura instantly filled his body.

Although it is called "waste body", Ma Xie doesn't think that there is anything wrong with his physique, and it is better than nothing to be able to enhance his strength in battle!

The most important thing is that Ma Xie always feels that his bloodline is not as chicken as Wu Pingtian said, on the contrary, this bloodline can not only greatly enhance the strength of the body, but also enhance the divine sense, for Ma Xie, is there a more suitable physique than this?

"Ma Quan seems to have said that our physique is the most powerful physique, and he should be right. Ma Xie thought in his heart: "It's just that the world doesn't understand our physique, so they think it's just a waste of firewood." ”

Ma Xie has seen Ma Quan's strength, and Ma Quan has indeed used this bloodline power, if this is all a waste body, then Ma Xie really can't imagine what kind of physique those legendary Dao bodies are.

At this moment, the state of Ma Xie's body has been stimulated to the extreme by him, and behind him, a red phantom has appeared, that is, Sword Spirit Red Shadow.

It's just that Ma Xie didn't realize it, he concentrated on maintaining this state, but after a quarter of an hour, he finally couldn't hold on.

"No, my body can't adapt to this extreme state, but if I want to hit the Dragon and Tiger Pass, I must maintain this state for a long time, it seems that it is not easy to break through. Ma Xie thought.

The most difficult part of hitting the Dragon and Tiger Pass is to maintain the activity of the body for a long time, that is, to take out the most extreme state of your body and keep it for a long time.

But what a difficult thing it is, even when fighting, the body in the extreme state can only remain for an instant, and sometimes it can be achieved inadvertently, like Ma Xie to keep the body in the extreme state for a quarter of an hour, which is already very remarkable.

Ma Xie was very dissatisfied with his performance, he had no one to guide him, he didn't know the difficulty at all, and he thought that he had encountered obstacles.

For the next ten days, Ma Xie has been trying to increase the length of his limit state, from a quarter of an hour to three quarters of an hour, and when he reaches three quarters of an hour, Ma Xie finds that this has reached his limit and cannot progress at all.

"What's the matter, I can't break through the difficulty?" Ma Xie didn't understand why no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't improve even a little more.

"Xuanyang Jiusheng said in the decision, only by maintaining the limit state to more than twelve hours, can I try to break through the Dragon and Tiger Pass, and now I don't even have half an hour, obviously it is still far away. Ma Xie's heart was very anxious, he kept trying, but he never broke through the limit of three quarters of an hour.

Ma Xie, who was very disappointed, sat in the formation in a daze, this was the first time he encountered a difficulty since he practiced, he did not have the guidance of his master, and finally encountered his own bottleneck.
