Chapter 6: The Eve of Parting
Time is like a knife, the knife urges people to grow old, time is like an arrow, and there is no turning back. Since Ye Qiuli returned from Mars with a full load, 10 busy years have passed in a blink of an eye. In the past 10 years, in addition to cultivating the "Nine Grades of Ascension to Immortals" step by step and stabilizing the newborn Yuan Infant, he also officially began the cultivation of "Xingchen Jue", and began to take the initiative to improve his spiritual strength and contribute to the future journey of cultivation.
At the same time, he did not put down "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon", and he would practice seriously whenever he had the opportunity. In the case that the Yuan Infant had already been completed, there was no difficulty in breaking through the third change, that is, the spar was consumed too much, and in Ye Qiuli's calculations, it was even larger than the amount consumed from the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Stage to the Out-of-Body Period, which made the spar reserves that had just been slightly enriched since he opened the Flowing Cloud Immortal Ring immediately shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is still the result of Ye Qiuli's assistance in cultivating the Thunder Battle Qi at the same time, otherwise, the number of spars to be consumed during the cultivation process will probably be even more. You must know that in order to successfully break through the third transformation of "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon", which is equivalent to the Yuanying realm, he specially called a fusion reactor to provide sufficient electrical energy, in order to save the already few spar resources as much as possible.
He had also thought about relying entirely on the cultivation of "Thunder Battle Qi" to break through the bottleneck of the realm of physical cultivation, after all, that exercise also had the effect of strengthening the physical body and improving cultivation. But after actually trying, he had to abandon the seemingly feasible idea, because this method would take too long, at least hundreds of years to succeed, and he didn't have that long to wait.
Although "Thunder Battle Qi" is a cultivation method in the same vein as "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon", both of which are aimed at strengthening the cultivator's body, increasing his strength, and improving his life level, but these two exercises are still very different, not to mention their specific cultivation process, they can be easily distinguished just by looking at the cultivation speed of the two.
Although "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon" is relatively harsh to cultivate, if the resources are sufficient, it will soon be able to break through, while "Thunder Battle Qi" is much simpler, the requirements are not high, and there is even an endless amount of abundant electric energy to take and demand, but the cultivation speed is much slower, and it is very difficult to achieve leapfrog improvement. If you simply cultivate "Thunder Battle Qi", it will take about three or four hundred years to cultivate to the realm of the third change, but when you cultivate "Nine Transformations of the Fish and Dragon", as long as the resources are sufficient, you can reach the same realm in one or two hundred years.
It's not that the "Thunder Battle Qi" created by Ye Qiuli is not powerful enough, but it is purely limited by the quality of the human body itself. The human body's ability to withstand thunder and lightning energy is obviously far less than the endurance of the aura of heaven and earth, and once the strength of the electrical energy it experiences exceeds the upper limit of the body, it is easy to be dangerous, and even lead to personal death. This is also the reason why when cultivating "Thunder Battle Qi", it is necessary to use a lot of scientific and technological equipment to assist, in order to adjust the amount of external electrical energy in time to prevent the body from being harmed.
As long as it is not a mandatory indoctrination, how much heaven and earth aura can be absorbed by the human body, how much heaven and earth aura can be absorbed by the human body must also be able to digest how much heaven and earth aura, and there will definitely be no problem of excessive aura. After all, human beings have been bathed in the aura of heaven and earth from conception to birth, and then to growth, and their bodies have long had a strong adaptability to the aura of heaven and earth.
It is also due to the strong adaptability of their own bodies to the aura of heaven and earth, so when human beings are looking for the direction of evolution, the first thing they think of is to use the aura of heaven and earth that fills them around them to strengthen themselves, in order to obtain strong strength and long-term life. Therefore, whether it is cultivating martial arts or cultivating to become immortals, or even cultivating demons, demons, Buddhas, and gods, what they cultivate is actually the aura of heaven and earth.
For the abundant heaven and earth aura, the human body will only feel comfortable and natural, but when encountering strong electrical energy, there will only be strong rejection. It was precisely because of this diametrically opposed reaction that when cultivating in the Thunder Battle Qi, even if the electrical energy from the outside world was very sufficient, the cultivator's cultivation speed could not be very fast, because he had to pay attention to his body's ability to withstand it from time to time, and it was impossible for him to be reckless.
Temperance!
In addition to these two words that need to be kept in mind during the general cultivation process, they especially need to be paid attention to when cultivating "Thunder Battle Qi". The truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, is especially evident in this peculiar cultivation method. Even if Ye Qiuli had already cultivated to the realm of the Yuan Infant Stage, and the body after reshaping the body had a tendency to become semi-energetic, he didn't know how much more energy he could bear, and when he was cultivating "Thunder Battle Qi", he still didn't dare to let too much electrical energy enter his body, so he could only slowly cultivate step by step according to the requirements of the exercises.
This is also the reason why Ye Qiuli has been practicing diligently since he created "Thunder Battle Qi", but he has never regarded it as the main cultivation method, because compared to the exercises such as "Nine Grades of Ascension to Immortals" and "Nine Changes of Fish and Dragon", its cultivation speed is too slow, so slow that people can't stand it, so slow that people can't wait, and this kind of slowness is still a kind of mandatory slowness, and there are almost no effective ways to change it.
Of course, the "Thunder Battle Qi" created as a martial arts cultivation technique, the cultivation speed before the Yuan Infant Period was quite okay, not much slower than the ordinary cultivation exercises, especially in the environment of the earth, which is seriously lacking in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, its cultivation speed can be called to improve by leaps and bounds, but it also completely lives up to Ye Qiuli's huge painstaking efforts and has carried out exploration and experiments for ten years.
After not waiting to spend hundreds of years slowly cultivating the "Thunder Battle Qi" until he broke through, Ye Qiuli finally chose the simple and fast but costly method - using a large number of spars to pile up, and under the urging of the infinite amount of heaven and earth aura, he directly broke through the third change of the "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon".
With such a ruined cultivation method, the effect is naturally needless to say, Ye Qiuli easily cultivated the third change of "Nine Changes of the Fish and Dragon", raising his physical strength to a higher level again, and saving hundreds of years of time. It's just that the negative impact of that is also extremely significant, the consumption of a large number of spirit stones has made his net worth shrink a lot immediately, forcing him to consider flying away from the earth as soon as possible and going to the cultivation realm as soon as possible.
If he couldn't find a sufficient amount of hedron reserves, his cultivation would be unsustainable. The extremely thin aura on the earth, he can't even maintain the existence of the Yuan Infant, let alone want to cultivate and grow, he doesn't want to end up dying on the earth because of lack of resources!
After looking at the extremely empty Liuyun Immortal Ring, and then thinking that he already had a dual Yuan Infant Stage cultivation, and his overall strength was about the same as that of an average Yuan Infant middle and late stage cultivators, Ye Qiuli finally relented and decided to leave the earth one day and go to the vast universe to find the way to the cultivation realm.
After these 10 years of rest, he has completed all the preparations he can make, and even the alchemy technique that he has been studying and cultivating has unexpectedly succeeded ahead of schedule, and he can already refine a magic weapon at the spirit weapon level, and then continue to stay on the earth, it really doesn't make much sense, except for wasting time and wasting life, it doesn't do much good to his cultivation.
Yes, since he found that the high-grade magic weapon suitable for his own use was very rare, Ye Qiuli had already decided to learn the refining technique by himself, refine the spirit weapon or treasure weapon that he had in hand, and do it himself, so that he could have enough food and clothing. Therefore, in the past few years since returning from Mars, in addition to cultivating exercises such as the "Nine Rank Ascension Immortal Technique", the rest of his time has basically been spent on improving his refining technique.
After all, this period of time can be regarded as a rare calm few years since his cultivation, which is just the right time for him to practice the advanced refining method he has just mastered, the "Heart Refining Method", if he officially steps into the cultivation realm in the future, under the shroud of countless unknown dangers, and under the entanglement of endless complicated affairs, he may not have such a leisurely attitude to concentrate on the practice of basic techniques at all.
And the facts have also proved that the innate fire spirit body is indeed the most suitable person to learn alchemy, in just a few years, Ye Qiuli has made some achievements in cultivating the "heart refining method", and he can successfully refine the most basic spirit weapons, and the middle and high-grade magic weapons are even more handy. In this process, his high-level Samadhi True Fire, which is comparable to that of a master of cultivation in the out-of-body period and the distraction period, really made him feel many times easier when refining weapons, and his super fire control ability like a finger and his heart moving at will allowed him to take advantage of it when refining weapons, and he didn't have to worry about the fire problem at all.
Such remarkable cultivation results made Ye Qiuli more and more glad that he had obtained a rare and rare star tear that was rare for hundreds of millions of years on Mars, thus transforming the top cultivation qualification such as the innate fire spirit body. If he only relied on his previous mid-to-upper-grade fire attribute qualifications, it would already be quite a remarkable achievement to be able to touch the threshold of the "Heart Refining Method" in 10 years, and it was completely impossible to successfully refine a magic weapon at the spirit weapon level!
Of course, the reason why Ye Qiuli's alchemy technique was able to achieve such a huge improvement was not only because his qualifications were indeed extremely excellent, but also because of the extremely detailed refining methods and refining experience recorded in the "Treasure of the Long Wind".
Without it, it would be impossible for Ye Qiuli to enter the hall so quickly, go straight to the essence of alchemy, not only did he not take half a wrong step along the way, but he also jumped over a lot of traps, took a lot of shortcuts, and successfully cultivated the advanced alchemy technique smoothly. Speaking seriously, it was indeed an extremely fortunate thing for Ye Qiuli to be able to learn the refining knowledge that the Divine Fire Gate had summarized after countless years of hard work.
