The cave was dark, the space was closed, and in the gloom, only a few bonfires piled up with wood burned slowly, sneering, lonely and lonely.

In the firelight, I could vaguely see a thin figure sitting on a futon in the depths of the gloomy cave. The figure sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and his delicate face was silent and peaceful, as if he had not put the dark world around him in his eyes at all!

At this moment, in the operation of the exercises, Ye Yi had already attracted the true qi stored in the sea of dantian qi, forming a tide of energy, and washing away the dantian barrier over and over again.

Between the erosions, within the sea of Ye Yi's dantian qi, the true qi that had finally become strong and condensed after a long time of polishing and hardship was actually disappearing rapidly. At the same time, as the true qi dissipated, Ye Yi's own aura was also decreasing.

However, for the changes in himself, Ye Yi's indifferent expression did not change in the slightest, the true qi disappeared, the aura weakened, and the process he was going on now may not be incomprehensible to ordinary people. But he knew that if he wanted to make up for the gap between him and others in the shortest possible time, and stabilize his weak dantian, so as to fill the lack of foundation and accumulation because of his blind improvement in cultivation within the short time, the process he was carrying out now must be experienced!

He is a young master of a family, and he has learned all kinds of knowledge about cultivation since he was a child, although he has only recently started cultivating, but he is not ignorant of all kinds of difficult problems in the cultivation process of monks. On the contrary, because he was unable to cultivate since he was a child, he knew better than ordinary people how to answer all kinds of difficult questions that were born in cultivation.

Before the monk can carry out the condensation and purge the marrow and break through the condensation period, he must go through a long stage of accumulation of essence, and in this stage, in addition to the tempering and improvement of the heart and true qi refinement, the most important thing is the process of stabilizing the dantian.

Under normal circumstances, before a cultivator cultivates to the late stage of Qi refining, the dantian will often only gradually expand and grow with the improvement of cultivation, and will not become stable at the same time as it expands and grows. This also makes the dantian of the monks in the early and middle stages of qi refining often extremely weak, and often in some accidents, the dantian is damaged, thus losing the qualification to cultivate or continue to cultivate.

In the later stage of qi refining, although the dantian will be strengthened by itself in the process of cultivation and promotion, from the seventh layer of qi refining to the ninth layer of qi refining, the dantian barrier will only be strengthened three times. Although the dantian that has been strengthened three times is enough to deal with many unexpected situations, it is still a drop in the bucket if you want to face the test of condensing qi and purifying the marrow, and it is really difficult to succeed.

Therefore, after cultivating to the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, all Qi refining stage cultivators must spend a lot of time accumulating their foundations, stabilizing their dantian, and making final preparations for the breakthrough of Qi condensation and purification.

There are two main ways to stabilize the dantian, namely the true temperature cultivation and the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier. Among the two methods, the former is known for its slowness, emphasizing the natural success, mainly after the monk cultivates to the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, with the help of his own original cultivation of advanced exercises, through the polishing and condensation of his own true qi, so that the true qi stored in the sea of dantian qi becomes condensed and vigorous, and then he no longer cares, allowing the slow cultivation of true qi, in a long time of imperceptibly, his own dantian gradually stabilized.

As for the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier, it is known for its fierceness and strength, and it is also the process he is currently undertaking. The method is often to pull the true qi that has already been polished and condensed into a strong force, turn it into an energy tide, and wash the dantian barrier over and over again, and constantly shape the stability of the dantian barrier in the washing.

In contrast, it takes a lot less time to draw the true qi to wash and shape the dantian barriers, not only giving up the way of slow cultivation of the true qi for a long time, but also pursuing shortcuts, which is conducive to quick success.

However, although it is quick, this method has extremely serious drawbacks, that is, once the true qi used to polish and condense in the monk's own dantian contains impurities, then in the process of scouring and shaping, it will destroy the stability of the dantian barrier, thus playing the opposite role.

Not only that, the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier is also an extremely short-sighted method, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, lacking the stage of polishing the mind, but also in the process of condensing qi and purifying the marrow, the choice faced will be more difficult than that of ordinary monks!

Ordinary monks, if they fail to condense qi and cleanse the marrow, they still have a chance to start over, but after experiencing the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier, they must succeed once. Otherwise, the dantian that was originally stabilized by erosion and shaping will become no longer stable again due to the failure of condensation and marrow washing, and it will be even more difficult in the process of stabilizing the dantian in the future!

In the family, although he didn't know what choice ordinary disciples of the same rank would make when they were faced with the imminent start of the crown ceremony, they were still in the process of stabilizing their dantian, and they were unable to condense their qi and cleanse their marrow.

But he knew that at this moment, how could he have the practice of walking a hundred miles and half of ninety? Even though the method of washing and shaping the dantian barrier was extremely short-sighted, so what? As long as the true qi stored in his dantian was extremely pure, and did not contain half a trace of impurities, it would not have a counterproductive effect on the stability of the dantian!

Now, he is less than four days away from the family crown ceremony, how can he have the leisure to warm up the dantian with peace of mind? Moreover, with the sharp blade hanging above his head, he never thought that he would fail in the process of condensing qi and purifying the marrow.

Moreover, since he stepped into the path of cultivation, he had never had the idea of following the rules and cultivating with peace of mind, so how could he care about such an extremely short-sighted approach at this moment?

Between thoughts, Ye Yi's heart became more and more determined, and the expression reflected between his eyebrows became more and more decisive. Under the operation of the exercises, he had already gone all out to pull the true qi, turning it into a tide of energy, and constantly washing and shaping the dantian barriers.

......

When Ye Yi was immersed in the traction of true qi turning into energy tides and washing and shaping the dantian barriers, the night was also gradually passing away between the passage of time. Finally, with the crisp chirping of a few birds, the dawn spilled, and the heavens and the earth became bright again.

At the same time, in the depths of the dark cave, Ye Yi, who was under the operation of the exercises, his aura also weakened to the bottom, reaching the lowest state in history. At this moment, within the sea of Ye Yi's dantian qi, the true qi that had originally become majestic after being polished and condensed would no longer disappear without a trace.

Within the sea of his dantian qi, only half a trace of faint and insignificant true qi remained at the bottom, and it could no longer be pulled up and turned into a tide of energy, which played a role in the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier.

Feeling this, Ye Yi finally withdrew from the state of operation of the exercises, and under his inner look, he carefully observed the barriers within the dantian qi sea. Soon, inside the dantian barrier, under the three imprints that were originally distinct, a very vague shallow imprint appeared again.

Seeing the imprint appear, Ye Yi's indifferent expression couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief, although at this moment, his dantian qi was depleted in the sea of true qi, and his aura was also extremely weak, but this represented that the fourth imprint of the dantian barrier reinforced again finally appeared, and his efforts in the past three days have finally achieved something!

Although it was extremely vague, if he wanted to reach the standard of condensing qi and washing the marrow as soon as possible, this method of pulling true qi into energy tides to wash and shape the dantian barrier was indeed the most suitable choice for him. At this moment, as long as he persists, he believes that at his current speed, he will need to wash and shape it twice at most, and the fourth imprint that is very vague in his dantian barrier will be completely clear.

And as long as he formed the fourth imprint and formed another imprint to strengthen his dantian for the fifth time, then he would have the qualifications to go through the condensation qi cleansing and retreat to break through the condensation period! Compared with the long and incomparably long true temperature cultivation, how much less time did he reduce than one and a half years?

After thinking about it, Ye Yi couldn't help but feel better, and after taking out the dry food and water bag from the storage bag, he ate it hastily. He had to finish the meal as soon as possible, and then go out to find the demon wolf, and once again condense his true qi in the midst of the battle!

After eating, Ye Yi once again took out a third-order wind spirit grass from the storage bag on his waist and swallowed it at random, before he walked to the edge of the cave, lifted the last remaining trace of true qi in the dantian, and pushed the boulder that closed the cave again.

The boulder was pushed away, and the last vestiges of true qi in Ye Yi's dantian were finally completely consumed, and suddenly an extremely debilitating feeling of powerlessness emanated from the dantian, and Ye Yi felt that he at this moment, like a woman waiting to give birth, could no longer exert the slightest strength!

Feeling his own extremely debilitating aura, Ye Yi had to shake his head, no wonder in the family, even those ordinary disciples with low qualifications, until the last moment, would not choose to wash the formed dantian barrier and stabilize the dantian. Putting aside the short-sightedness of the erosion and shaping of the dantian barrier itself, the extreme powerlessness of the true qi that appeared after the erosion and shaping was exhausted and the breath was abnormally weakened was really unbearable.

Even if he didn't have the talent to absorb energy from the wind spirit grass, if he wanted to completely recover the true qi in the dantian, it would take at least three or two days.

After thinking about it, Ye Yi shook his head again, and soon overcame this disgust and disgust for the weakness of his body, and under the operation of the exercises, he sat cross-legged again and began to recover his true qi.

Just as soon as he sat down, Ye Yi felt that something was wrong, and his eyes suddenly opened, and he withdrew from the state of cross-knee cultivation. Stretching out his hand, Ye Yi took off the sachet hanging from his waist again, and poured out the long-expired sachet grass inside; Ye Yi took out the brocade box containing the sachet from the storage bag on his waist again, but this time, Ye Yi took out two strains of sachet at one time before starting to continue making the sachet.

And in the process of making the sachet this time, Ye Yi not only used two breathing herbs at the same time, but even the method of dealing with the spirit grass became more and more cautious.

Finally, after half a pillar of incense, Ye Yi finally finished processing the breathing wind grass, and hung the encapsulated sachet on his waist again.

But that's not the end of it!

Ye Yi had just hung up the sachet, and then stepped straight out of the cave, and after leaving the cliff valley, Ye Yi lifted the half trace of true qi that had just recovered from the refining of the spirit grass, and then rushed towards the territory where the demon wolves were located on the other side of the valley!

Between Mercedes, Ye Yi's originally indifferent expression became solemn again, and between his eyebrows, he was also tightly locked. Just now, he actually ignored an extremely important thing!

In the family, even if other disciples stabilized the dantian by washing and shaping, they had never heard of any disciple who would completely stabilize his weak dantian in just a few days. Although erosion and shaping is a method of pursuing shortcuts, this is only compared to the true temperature cultivation, which is very long, and often takes a year and a half of warm cultivation time, and the time consumed in the process of polishing the true qi itself will not be reduced much.

On the contrary, due to the difficulty of repeated polishing of true qi, it often takes several days to last every time the washing and shaping is carried out, so if you want to stabilize the dantian through the method of washing and shaping, it is usually impossible to complete it without perseverance for twenty or thirty consecutive days!

And even if he had magical exercises and an unimaginable spiritual root talent, it took him three days just to polish and condense the true qi in the dantian. The efforts of the past three days have only left a shallow and vague mark on the dantian barrier.

In this way, even if he only needed to carry out two more washes and shapes to completely clear the fourth imprint in the dantian, it would still take six days. In this way, it would have taken him nine days just to completely clear the fourth imprint.

And it would take nine days to form the fourth imprint, so wouldn't it take even more time to form the fifth imprint? Then after he had completely stabilized his dantian and gone through the condensation qi cleansing and retreat to break through the condensation period, wouldn't the family crown ceremony be close at hand? Then what time did he have to rush to the Meteorite Cliff to find the high-level fourth-order Six-Leaf Meteorite Fruit to improve himself?

Between his thoughts, the wrinkles between Ye Yi's eyebrows became deeper and deeper, and the horror in his heart became more and more chilling, as for the speed of the original speed, it was getting faster and faster!

No, he's going to change!

He had to change his original plan and rush to Meteorite Cliff as soon as possible, otherwise, even if he succeeded in condensing, then he would not have a chance to rush to Meteorite Cliff again. And once he loses the promotion of the fourth-order spiritual artifact Six-Leaf Meteoric Wind Fruit, how can he fight against Ye Long, who has become even more powerful after closing the relics of the peak powerhouse of the Enlightenment and Dispersion?

After thinking about it, Ye Yi had already made up his mind, at this moment, he had to change his original plan to cultivate to the condensation stage first, and then set off for the Falling Wind Cliff, he should rush to the Falling Wind Cliff as soon as possible!

Only if he rushed to the Meteorite Cliff earlier, and then found the six-leaf Meteorite Fruit, a fourth-order peak spiritual creature, could he have the possibility of defeating Ye Long after breaking through the Condensation Period!
