"Senior He, I want to buy some pills." Finally, Xu Changshou looked at He Shuixiu and said this. "What pills?" "Spirit Gathering Pills." Xu Changshou had used up all the Spirit Gathering Pills in his hand. He was about to break through the twelfth level of Qi Refining, and needed to reserve some Spirit Gathering Pills. Because he needed a lot of pills, Xu Changshou didn't want to buy them in the sect, fearing that he would attract some people's attention. So, he wanted to buy Spirit Gathering Pills in Wanxian Pavilion and then go back to practice. "How many do you want?" "Two hundred."
Xu Changshou's current cultivation level is the eleventh level of Qi Refining, and his consumption of Spirit Gathering Pills is relatively large. It is conservatively estimated that he needs six Spirit Gathering Pills per month. Two hundred pills are enough for him for three years. "Xiaoya, send two hundred high-quality Qi Gathering Pills up." He Shuixiu gently transmitted a message to the first floor. Soon, a tall maid came up to the second floor with a tray of bottles and jars. The maid respectfully placed the tray in front of Xu Changshou. "Uncle He, here are the pills you asked for." "Xiao Ya, go down." "Yes!" "Friend Wang, here are 200 Qi Gathering Pills, check them out." "Okay!" Xu Changshou opened several jade bottles and looked at them separately. The quality of the Qi Gathering Pills here is no less than that of the sect. Xu Changshou was very satisfied and put away all the pills. He Shuixiu smiled and said, "One Qi Gathering Pill is one Spirit Stone. I'll give you a 10% discount and give you 180 Spirit Stones." "Thank you, Senior He. Here are the Spirit Stones. I'm leaving now." "Don't forget the exchange meeting in three years." "I'll keep it in mind." "Go!" ...
A few days later. When Xu Changshou returned to the sect, the first thing he did was to split the black antelope thunder bull into pieces of animal skin the size of a talisman, a total of 240 pieces. Then, he began to draw the thunderstorm talisman. In just five days, all 240 thunderstorm talismans were drawn. At this time, Xu Changshou had a total of 479 thunderstorm talismans in his hand. This was his strongest life-saving trump card. Even if a foundation-building cultivator came, he would not be able to withstand the hundreds of thunderstorm talismans thrown out. Then, Xu Changshou drew some ordinary wind talismans, the kind used to hand in tasks, and together with the ones he had in his hand, he had completed three years of tasks in total. After everything was done, Xu Changshou began to retreat. There is no time for cultivating immortals, and years are unknown when breathing. Time slipped away quietly in meditation. One year. Two years. Three years. Boom... One night, the spiritual energy in Xu Changshou's body suddenly ran wild, and a certain level deep in his body was directly broken through. The rich spiritual energy formed a bowl-sized cyclone at the location of the dantian. The cyclone was light golden, like a faint sunset glow, washing Xu Changshou's body. At this moment, Xu Changshou felt that he had been sublimated in some way, with strong tendons and bones, and a force of a thousand pounds. "So that's it!" After the breakthrough, Xu Changshou seemed to have realized something. At this time, his physical condition has reached a certain perfection. Strictly speaking, Qi Refiners are not real cultivators, but powerful mortals. Only after building the foundation can one go without food and maintain vitality by breathing wind and drinking dew. Building the foundation, the foundation-building realm is the foundation for entering the world of immortal cultivation, and the first step into the world of immortal cultivation. At this time, Xu Changshou has reached the perfection of a mortal. One step further is the foundation-building realm. If there is a foundation-building pill now, he can immediately impact the foundation-building realm. At this time, Xu Changshou is not in a hurry. After coming out of retreat, he counted the days and found that there are exactly three months before the foundation-building Taoist exchange meeting. He plans to go to the Wanxian Market again in two and a half months. During this period of time, he draws talismans when he has time, and rests after drawing talismans, without practicing.
In the past three years, Xu Changshou has almost no expenses, and his wealth has accumulated to 3,460 yuan. When he arrives at the Wanxian Building, he can still sell talismans for 1,800 spirit stones. By then, the spirit stones on him will exceed 5,000 yuan. These five thousand spiritual stones are his biggest support for building a foundation. All these years of preparation have not been wasted. I hope I can buy Emperor Liujiang and Linglong Fruit at the exchange meeting this time. This year, Xu Changshou is twenty-seven years old. Before he is thirty, he has cultivated to the twelfth level of Qi Refining. If he can get the elixir, successfully refine the foundation-building elixir, and take it within three years, then he will have the greatest probability of achieving foundation building. If he misses these three years, he may never have the chance to build a foundation again. … Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. It is the end of the month. Ye Shanhu came. She did not come alone. She also brought a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. The boy's cultivation is the ninth level of Qi Refining. "Junior Brother Xu, congratulations, congratulations on your Qi Refining Perfection." "Thank you, Senior Sister Ye." Xu Changshou smiled and clasped his fists. "Hai Jiao, I haven't met Senior Brother Xu yet." Ye Shanhu waved to the boy, who hurried over and saluted respectfully: "Greetings, Senior Brother Xu." "Who is he?" Xu Changshou frowned. What's going on? Is Ye Shanhu looking for a Taoist partner? Ye Shanhu smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. This is my brother Ye Haijiao." Shanhu Haijiao! They look like a brother and sister. What's the name of the other brother? Haikai? "So it's Junior Brother Ye. No need to be polite. You're welcome." "Junior Brother Xu, I have something to tell you. Let's go in." "Oh!" "Haijiao, wait outside." "Yes." Ye Shanhu pulled Xu Changshou into the bedroom and left Ye Haijiao in the yard. After entering the house, Ye Shanhu sat directly on Xu Changshou's bed and said straight to the point: "Junior Brother Xu, I will be in seclusion for a while. At the end of each month, let my brother come here to get the talisman." "Seclusion, what are you doing in seclusion?"
Xu Changshou was puzzled. At this time, Ye Shanhu's cultivation was already at the twelfth level of Qi Refining. His cultivation was complete, and there was no point in seclusion again. As long as it is a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, no matter who it is, there is no need to practice in seclusion, unless it is to build a foundation in seclusion, is it? Thinking of this possibility, Xu Changshou looked directly at Ye Shanhu: "You..." Ye Shanhu nodded: "Yes, my parents spent a lot of money to buy me a foundation-building pill." "So, I want to retreat to impact the foundation-building realm." "You have a foundation-building pill?" Xu Changshou was surprised and envious. Ye Shanhu is two years younger than her. She is 25 years old this year. A few years ago, Ye Shanhu broke through the twelfth level of Qi Refining. The conditions for foundation building have been met long ago. In those years, Ye Shanhu did not get the foundation building pill, but now he suddenly has the foundation building pill, so he must have gotten it recently. For many people, the foundation building pill is out of reach. But for disciples of a big family like Ye Shanhu, there are certain channels to get the foundation building pill. But it is not easy. Ye Shanhu can get the foundation building pill, and there is also a certain amount of luck, otherwise he should have had it long ago. "Well!" Ye Shanhu's face was serious: "I want to impact the foundation building realm, success or failure depends on this." "Are you sure?" "No!" Ye Shanhu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Those inner disciples, even if they have the foundation building pill, only have a 30% success rate, let alone me."
