Chapter 138: The Eve of Dabi (2)
Today is the day of the great competition of the sect, and he Fang Zhe naturally will not know it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, as early as four months ago, he had successfully broken through the bottleneck and advanced to the middle stage of foundation building, and the reason why he had not been able to retreat was because he wanted to continue to comprehend and cultivate the Sword Spirit Technique and the Jingyuan Sword Technique.
After advancing to the middle stage of foundation building, with the improvement of his cultivation, he had a deeper understanding of the sword spirit technique, and it was much easier to comprehend the third layer of the sword spirit technique, which he had never had a clue before.
A month ago, he had finally refined the sword spirit technique that he had cultivated for many years to the third layer and reached the realm of Xiaocheng.
Now the sword embryo in Fang Zhe's body is no longer just a virtual form like it was at the beginning, but has formed a substantial sword embryo, the shape of this sword embryo is like a small sword, entrenched in the dantian in the body, but this sword embryo looks very vague, and it can only be roughly seen that it is the appearance of a flying sword.
As for the clearer flying sword form of this sword embryo, Fang Zhe estimated that he would not be able to see it until the Sword Spirit Technique cultivation was completed.
After the sword embryo was first formed, Fang Zhe tried to continue to comprehend and practice the following forms of the Jingyuan Sword Technique, but due to the limited time, in just one month, he had only comprehended most of the fifth form of the Jingyuan Sword Technique, and he was still a little unskilled in using it.
But even so, when the sword embryo was first formed, he also had the confidence to fight any monk in the late stage of foundation building, or even kill him.
The power of his sword cultivation power is not only closely related to cultivation, but also directly related to the strength of the sword embryo.
The higher his cultivation, the stronger the sword embryo, and the stronger his sword cultivation power will be!
And the longer he cultivates the Sword Spirit Technique and the Jing Yuan Sword Technique, the more he can feel the power of the sword cultivation, and sometimes he can't help but be a little curious, he has only mastered the skin of the sword embryo, and the divine power is already far beyond the monks of the same level, so how powerful was Jing Yuan, who founded the Sword Spirit Technique, when he used the sword cultivation magic power?
And more importantly, whether it is himself or Jing Yuan, he is just practicing sword cultivation through the trick of cultivating sword embryos through the sword spirit technique, and it is not a real sword spirit body, at best, it can only be regarded as pseudo sword cultivation, but pseudo sword cultivation is already so powerful, so how powerful is the legendary sword spirit body, and the real sword cultivation?
However, thinking of this, Fang Zhe shook his head and smiled bitterly, what did he want to do, the body of the sword spirit was still a legendary existence for Fang Zhe, it was useless to think about it.
Now there is still a sect Dabi waiting for him.
After Li Yibai took himself back to Qingjian Gate, he spent a lot of resources on his body over the years, and Qingyang Dan had already given many pieces, which was enough for him to cultivate to the stage of knotting Dan, just the Qingyang Dan, its value was no less than 100,000 spirit stones.
Moreover, over the years, Li Yibai has also sent various pills to enhance cultivation.
It was precisely because of the Qingyang Pill and a large number of pills to enhance his cultivation that Fang Zhe was able to maintain a high-speed growth in cultivation, and it took less than ten years to improve his cultivation from the late stage of Qi cultivation to the current middle stage of foundation building.
Even if you don't consider the bottleneck in the middle, and only calculate the time for cultivation to improve, it is not weaker than those monks who mutate the spirit root, that is, it is only one line worse than those monks of the heavenly spirit root.
Li Yibai and Elder Hao paid such a big price on him, what were they counting on, wasn't it just to get a better ranking of the sect for Jin Lingfeng?
In this transaction, it is now time for Fang Zhe to pay!
After reading this large group of transmission notes, he had just closed the formation of the cave mansion and came out, when he heard a voice from afar: "Senior Brother Fang, you can come out, brother, I still thought that you would stay in retreat and not participate in this sect competition!"
"Hey, your cultivation!" As soon as Chen Gao's figure arrived in front of Fang Zhe, he noticed that something was wrong, and the next moment he exclaimed: "You have advanced to the middle stage of foundation building?"
Fang Zhe looked at Chen Gao, a smile appeared on his face, and he smiled: "It's just a fluke!"
Hearing Fang Zhe's admission, Chen Gao's surprised face showed a hint of an end, no one knew better than him Chen Gao how difficult it was to break through the bottleneck of the foundation building period.
He has been building the foundation for decades, and when he first built the foundation at the age of forty, he was also a well-known genius disciple in Jin Lingfeng, otherwise he would not have been accepted as a registered disciple by Li Yibai.
It's a pity that in the following decades, although he quickly raised his cultivation to the peak state of the early stage of foundation building, he walked past the last level alive and dead, stuck in the early stage of foundation building for decades and could not advance.
Now looking at Fang Zhe, the ninth junior disciple, who has entered the Qingjian Sect for less than ten years, but he has been promoted all the way from the late stage of Qi cultivation to the current middle stage of foundation building, it is impossible not to say that he is not envious or even jealous.
But this kind of thing is useless whether it is envy or jealousy, the bottleneck is mysterious and mysterious, and it is said that it can break through in three or two days, but if it can't break through, it can't be broken through in a lifetime, unless it is to find an anti-heaven elixir.
It's a pity that there are still the best Yunling pills in the Qi training period, and the best elixirs such as the Gathering Spirit Pill can be used by monks to break through the bottleneck, but after the foundation building period, although there are still pills with this effect, most of them are extremely rare, and occasionally one will be robbed by the monks in the foundation building period, and even the price cannot be simply calculated with spirit stones, which are all priceless things, which are much more precious than the foundation building pill.
The monks of the Dan period can afford to buy it, but they are not necessarily willing to spend a lot of money to buy it for their disciples.
Fang Zhe was so valued, when he broke through the bottleneck, Li Yibai didn't give him a panacea that would help break through the bottleneck.
The reason why he was able to break through the bottleneck was mainly because he relied on Qingyang Jue and Qingyang Dan, although Qingyang Jue needed Qingyang Pill every time he broke through the bottleneck, but this Qingyang Pill had largely replaced other elixirs needed to break through the bottleneck.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy to break through the bottleneck with Fang Zhe's three spirit root qualifications.
Seeing a hint of envy and end on Chen Gao's face, Fang Zhe took two steps forward and diverted the topic: "Senior Brother Chen came here this time because of the matter of the sect competition!"
The curtain on Chen Gao's face came and went quickly, he had been used to this kind of thing in the past few decades, among the many disciples under Li Yibai's seat, one after another broke through the cultivation, three years ago, even the eighth junior brother Li Mao, who built the foundation ten years later than him, broke through the bottleneck and successfully advanced to the middle stage of foundation building, not to mention that the sixth senior sister and the fifth senior brother were already in the late stage of foundation building, and the third senior brother was even more successful.
Hearing Fang Zhe talk about the big competition of the sect, he also knew that Fang Zhe was taking care of his own feelings and deliberately changed the topic, so he immediately picked up the conversation and said: "Yes, I came here this time to see if you are out of the customs, Master and Uncle Hao are waiting in the main hall!"
Speaking of the big competition, Chen Gao's interest was obviously high: "This sect big competition, senior brother, I have participated in it three times, and I got the best results in the last session, but I entered the top 50!"
Seeing that Fang Zhe didn't care, Chen Gao immediately said deliberately: "Don't think that the top fifty is easy, you must know that the disciples who can enter the top fifty in the last session are all monks above the middle stage of foundation building, except for me!"
However, at this time, Fang Zhe was thinking that if he participated in the sect competition this time, let alone the top fifty, it was estimated that the top ten would be difficult to satisfy Li Yibai, and he might have to be in the top five, or even the top three, to be worthy of Li Yibai's cultivation.
However, he also knew that there were hundreds of monks in the foundation building period in the Qingjian Sect, and there were many monks in the late stage of foundation building and even the Great Perfection in the foundation building period, and these disciples of the Qingjian Sect were not ordinary casual cultivators, the disciples of the small family, who were also from the big sects, would also practice powerful supernatural exercises, and would also have good spiritual weapons given by their elders.
When the time comes, Fang Zhe doesn't know how far he can go, he can only say that he is doing his best.
As the two of them spoke, they also let Jin Lingfeng's main hall fly in the direction of it.
At this time, in the main hall of Jin Lingfeng, many monks in the foundation building period had basically expired, and even the third senior brother An You, who rarely showed up after the success of the knot, also appeared.
However, so many people gathered, but Li Yibai did not say that he would go to Taiqing Mountain, and immediately lowered his head, and some people started talking!
"What's the matter, people should be almost here, who else do you have to wait?"
"No, have you seen it, Senior Brother Shen Peizi, Senior Sister Lin Yuwen, and Senior Brother Hu Ke have all arrived!"
"Senior Brother Shen Peizi, I heard that his cultivation is close to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Building Period, and he said that after this big competition, he will start the retreat to impact the Jie Dan!"
"Well, yes, with our Senior Brother Shen Peizi here, this time the sect is in a big competition, and our Jin Lingfeng can at least guarantee a top five. ”
"And Senior Brother Hu Ke, he is also a late-stage foundation building monk who has been famous for many years in our Jin Lingfeng, and he has a great chance of breaking into the top eighteen!"
"Senior Sister Lin Yuwan is not bad, although she has not advanced to the late stage of foundation building for a few years, but her supernatural power is obvious to all, in the last big competition, she was only a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, and she was able to compete with other branch brothers in the late stage of foundation building, and she reached the top thirty-two! This time her chance of reaching the top sixteen is also very great!"
"The strength of our Jin Lingfeng is still much weaker than that of the other branches, but the other branches have the existence of the Great Perfection of Foundation Building, especially the group of guys in Mu Ling Peak, several of them are not decent, not only are there Great Perfection monks of the Foundation Building Period like Senior Brother Leng Cheng, but I heard that they also have a monk with a mutated spiritual root, I don't know if it's true or not!"
"I heard from the people over there from Mu Lingfeng, that kid's name is Lu Potian, he is only in his twenties this year, and it is said that he was brought back by the elders of the sect when he was sixteen years old to start practicing, and now he has only been practicing for a little more than ten years!
But this person's cultivation has already reached the late stage of foundation building, and even the mutated spirit root can't have such a fast speed!"
"Oh, you mean to say that kid's qualifications are higher than the mutated spirit root?
"This is what you said, I didn't say it, the group of people in Mu Lingfeng have been hiding the news of this kid Lu Potian, and some news only circulated a few days ago!"
While everyone was talking, someone suddenly said, "But then again, why haven't we set off yet?
As soon as this person's words were finished, two hurried figures came in outside the door, it was Chen Gao and Fang Zhe!
