Chapter 1 Bottlenecks in the later stage of foundation building

Early in the morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the peaks of the Heavenly Dao Temple, the entire Shuntian Sect began a busy day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As the No. 1 sect in the Donglai world that manages millions of miles of territory, the busyness of the Shuntian Sect is incomparable to that of any other sect.

One moment flew out from this mountain peak a group of monks who changed guards, and the other time flew from that mountain peak a group of sect representatives who came up to pay tribute.

Those who make alchemy, those who preach, those who get up in the morning to practice, and those who go out to do errands......

This large sect with tens of thousands of monks is engaged in repetitive work day after day, and it is never tired of it, because it represents the prosperity of the sect and the vitality of this huge sect.

But all this seems to have nothing to do with the Heavenly Dao Academy.

It seems that this place has become a system of its own, and there are no disciples from other peaks who come to do business, and the disciples in the courtyard rarely go out.

This small mountain, which only has two hundred disciples and an old monster master who doesn't know the depths, completely hides itself in the majestic seventy-two peaks.

Sun Hao also left the cave early in the morning, wanting to see if there was anything to do that day.

But the courtyard was deserted, only a burst of medicinal incense from outside the alchemy room in the distance and a sound of metal clashing from the ground told their stories.

The sound of metal colliding underground is a disciple who studies casters building magic weapons.

Sun Hao was a little bored, he didn't know what to do for a while, he didn't expect that there was only one idler in the entire Heavenly Dao Academy, and the other disciples had their own objects to study, which was the direction given to them by the dean.

But there is only one direction for himself -- cultivation.

This may be a good thing in the eyes of other disciples, there is no need to delay the process of their cultivation for other miscellaneous matters, and there must be many people who want Sun Hao's good errand.

But Sun Hao himself was a little helpless, if he wanted to talk about cultivation, the sect would have the distribution of pills and spirit stones every month, plus his rough alchemy and the natural pill of the origin of the wood were worry-free.

However, cultivation is a boring thing, and when you reach a bottleneck, you have no choice but to try your best to break through, and a long period of retreat will only make your mood more irritable.

He had been in the Heavenly Dao Academy for three months, and every day he was just cultivating, cultivating, and cultivating again......

Although it is said that Xiuwei has reached the peak of the middle stage of foundation building, and it is only one foot away from the door, it has encountered a bottleneck at this time.

After several attempts, Sun Ha reluctantly found that the bottleneck this time was quite firm, and it was estimated that it was a side effect caused by taking the pill for a long time, and it was very difficult to break through.

He had no choice but to restrain his mind, put aside the matter of cultivation for the time being, and turned to study the earth-shattering stroke that had never matured, but there was still no progress, and the fire elder in the dantian did not have the slightest intention of revival.

Sun Hao decided to go out for a walk, wanting to see if there was anything he needed to do, but he found that the entire sect seemed to have forgotten about himself, and he was busy taking care of himself, and no one paid attention to him.

It's just that, let's take advantage of this opportunity to take a good turn around this Heavenly Dao Academy, it's ridiculous to say, he has been here for more than three months, not to mention the situation of the rest of the seventy-two peaks, and he doesn't even know the details of the Heavenly Dao Academy.

Tightening the robes of the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Academy that he was wearing, Sun Hao began to wander around along the sheep intestine path.

This is the entrance to the underground refining room, and the temperature inside is extremely high, leading to the underground fire;

This is the Scripture Pavilion, which contains countless books on Taoism, exercises, and spells, and Li Zhengyang, who studied magic, is here;

Here it is......

After turning in a big circle, Sun Hao turned around the Heavenly Dao Academy, and had a rough understanding of the distribution of the Heavenly Dao Academy, and also saw a few unknown disciples on the way, and got to know each other briefly.

In the end, he came to the outside of the alchemy room, which was actually the place he had always wanted to enter, but he had no chance to enter it.

But I didn't expect to meet Jin Shanao here, at this time he was sitting cross-legged on the grass with Mu He, with two cups of tea in front of him, as if they were discussing something.

It's really strange, Jin Shanao was quite reluctant to enter the alchemy room at the beginning, but now he is drinking with the people he hates, which is really unbelievable.

The two also found Sun Hao, Mu He thought about standing up, and greeted Sun Hao: "Senior Brother Sun, I haven't seen you for a long time, come and drink a cup of tea." ”

Sun Hao smiled, did not refuse, and sat down.

He took advantage of Mu He's time to make tea for him and observed Jin Shanao's expression, and saw that although he was still a little cold and arrogant, his eyes looked at Mu He but there was no disgust.

So he said reassuringly: "Senior Brother Jin, how are you doing here these days, are you still used to it?"

Jin Shan smiled noncommittally, as if he remembered something, and the frost on his face also retreated a little and said: "It's okay, I didn't expect that alchemy has so much attention and fun, Senior Brother Mu He is also a good teacher, and with his help, my Dan Dao has already achieved a little success." ”

Mu He waved his hand and said, "Senior Brother Jin is too modest, his alchemy qualifications are really quite good, I don't think it will take long for him to surpass me." ”

Sun Hao knew Mu He's temperament, since he said that Jin Shanao's qualifications were excellent, he would naturally not be fake, presumably his alchemy qualifications must be quite amazing, Dean Zhang saw this, so he sent him to the alchemy room.

Thinking of this, he jokingly said to Jin Shan: "Senior Brother Jin still has the idea of leaving this place, you must know that the March period has arrived." ”

Jin Shanao's face turned a rare red and said, "Don't laugh, I know how correct Master's decision was that day, and I won't leave the alchemy room if I am killed in the future." ”

After he explained with a smile, he asked Sun Hao again: "It's you, Senior Brother Sun, how are you doing these days?"

Sun Hao shook his head helplessly and said: "That's it, in addition to cultivation every day, cultivation is cultivation, compared to before, it is more spiritual energy, more pills, and nothing special." ”

Jin Shanao didn't expect Sun Hao's life to be so boring, and said with a dry smile: "Master naturally has his reasons for doing this, I think you will understand it in the future." ”

Sun Hao smiled noncommittally, and several people discussed the problems in cultivation again, and Sun Hao got up to say goodbye, preparing to continue to go back to the cave mansion.

But on the way, he meets a figure that surprises him.

This person is none other than Zhao Banxian, who has a relationship with him, and is the fortune teller who cheated and drank in the restaurant that day.

He was not too surprised to see Sun Hao, but he was stunned for a moment and then stepped forward and greeted: "Little brother, you and I are really fateful, we actually met again here, hey! No, look at your clothes, you should be a disciple recruited this year, then I will call you a junior brother." ”

Sun Hao looked at him for a long time before he reacted, and said in surprise: "You are also a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Academy? ”

Zhao Banxian smiled and said: "I'll explain these to you later, my cave mansion is not far from here, you go with me to drink a cup of spiritual tea, and I'll explain it to you slowly." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Sun Hao out of this place and arrived in front of a cave.

Entering the cave, Zhao Banxian simply cleaned up, and the two sat down at a stone table. Twice as much bitter tea exuding aura, quietly steaming.

Zhao Banxian then explained: "Senior Brother Sun Hao, your name is this, right?"

Seeing Sun Hao nodded, he continued: "Senior brother must not know my name yet, my surname is Zhao Mingyuan, and my junior brother can call me Senior Brother Zhao." ”

He paused for a moment and said: "Actually, Senior Brother didn't mean to deceive you that day, but it was a trial given to me by the Master, so that I could hone my mind in the worldly trial for three years, during which I was not allowed to use the Dao Law without authorization, and I hope that the senior brother will forgive me for the crime of deception that day." ”

Sun Hao narrowed his eyes, but he still couldn't feel the depth of cultivation on Zhao Banxian's body, and said: "Three years of trial, the task given to you by the master? ”

Zhao Banxian pondered for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Sun, you must not be able to see my cultivation clearly at this time, right?"

Sun Hao nodded.

"This is a Dao method that Master has assigned to me, restricting my cultivation to my body, in fact, my cultivation has reached the late stage of the Yudan at this time!"

"Is there anything that needs to be paid attention to?"

"That's right!" Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "Actually, my cultivation has long been able to break through the knot pill and form a Yuan Infant, but there has been no breakthrough over the years because Master hopes that my Yuan Infant can be stronger than others." ”

He also didn't pay attention to the question on Sun Hao's face and said: "This involves some secrets of Yuanying, junior brother, you will come into contact sooner or later, and I won't hide it, every Jiedan monk needs to choose a path when he is promoted to Yuanying, this is a level that every monk must pass." ”

"Some monks are confused and promoted, and the choice of the path is also very arbitrary, and the future achievements are not high, but some monks understand the truth, and deliberately suppress their cultivation in the later stage of the Yudan, find their own way, and after understanding it, they can become their own way after reaching the Yuan infant stage. ”

"And the master suppressed the cultivation for me, just to let me find my own way, these years I have been in the world for three years, and finally have some understanding, this is when I come back to the mountain and want to pick up the baby. ”

I see, I didn't expect that there would be such attention to being promoted to Yuanying, Sun Hao suddenly realized: "If this is the case, then I will congratulate Senior Brother Zhao on choosing the right path." I'm afraid I'm going to have to embark on a broad road in the future. ”

Zhao Yuan was also in a good mood, and talked with him with a smile for a while.

It didn't take long for Sun Hao to get up and say goodbye, he saw that Zhao Yuan was about to be promoted to Yuanying, and he also had some intention in his heart, wanting to return to the cave mansion as soon as possible to break through the bottleneck.

After Zhao Yuan also sent Sun Hao out, he went to the dean to report the affairs of the past few years and went to the main hall.
