Chapter 36 Auntie's Foundation Building
We have just concluded the foundation-building ceremony for Fourteenth Uncle, and the family has accomplished a major event.
Lin Maoting, who was far away in Jinzhou Prefecture, had also reached the most important moment of building his foundation. Since arriving here and renting a cave, he had been waiting for the auction to begin.
The auction finally started, and he didn't dare to delay, so he bought the first foundation-building pill for 50000 spirit stones. Then he immediately went to the backstage to exchange the spirit stones for the foundation-building pill, and went into seclusion to prepare for the foundation-building.
This retreat to the foundation-building stage has lasted for two or three months. Now I have to compress the spiritual energy and transform it into magic power, but this is not an easy task.
There is a huge quality gap between the two, which is not so easy to cross!
However, once the transformation is successful, and the body is nourished with magic power, the transformation of the life level can be completed, and the lifespan will be increased by two generations, giving a total lifespan of 240 years.
Lin Maoting compresses her own spiritual energy bit by bit according to the experience left by her ancestors and taught by her father in the family scripture library and her understanding of herself.
Fortunately, the spiritual consciousness level of the three foundation building levels had been completed ahead of time. That day, my father invited me into the secret room and gave me a piece of purple fruit pulp the size of a finger.
He didn't know what the treasure was and was confused. When he asked his father what it was, he didn't tell him. After he was sure that his father wouldn't say anything, he swallowed it directly.
I just took it and was about to refine it. I was not prepared at first, until a powerful purple energy rushed into my sea of consciousness, then I realized that it was a treasure that could enhance my soul power.
Because the potency of the medicine was so strong, she almost couldn't hold on at the beginning. Fortunately, she persisted and finally succeeded in refining it.
The spiritual consciousness directly broke through the limit of Qi Refining and reached an astonishing 50 feet, or 150 meters. I was so happy and excited, it was like a dream!
The super strong spiritual awareness also gave her a stronger ability to control spiritual energy.
After two or three months, the spiritual energy was finally compressed to the extreme.
At this point, it is already the most critical moment.
If successful, he would be able to compress the spiritual energy into mana, which would complete the most important step of building the foundation, the mana level. All that was left was to use the mana to nourish the body and complete the physical level.
If she fails to compress and transform, the spiritual energy that has been compressed to the limit will explode. If there is no protection from the Foundation Establishment Pill, her meridians will be blasted into pieces in an instant.
Lin Maoting was not in a hurry to complete this step. She calmed herself down and swallowed the foundation-building pill.
Instantly a surge of energy rushed into the Dantian and meridians, and the essence, energy and spirit became one, fully urging the spiritual energy to complete this final step.
Right now! She gritted her teeth and urged the spiritual energy in her body to condense. After a loud "boom" that resounded through her soul, the first ray of liquid mana was finally born in her body, and soon a chain reaction occurred.
With this strand of magic power as a foundation, the remaining spiritual energy quickly condensed into liquid magic power, and her dantian became empty.
After the conversion in Dantian, the remaining magic power is less than one tenth.
"Success!" Lin Maoting didn't have time to think too much. She quickly calmed down her excitement, concentrated her attention, and used all her strength to activate the foundation-building part of the Qingmu Changsheng Sutra, circulating the Qi in the body to consolidate her current level of cultivation.
He also took out the medium-grade wood spirit stone that he had specially kept on him, and madly absorbed the spiritual energy in it to increase his magic power.
Then, the newly generated magic power is stimulated to circulate throughout the body, allowing the body to slowly adapt to the existence of the magic power.
I don't know how long it took! I felt that my cultivation had finally stabilized.
Only then did she dare to get up, pack up, open the door of the retreat room, and excitedly tell her father who was guarding the door that she had successfully established her foundation.
Lin Fandao was also so moved that he burst into tears. It was not easy at all. Ever since his beloved wife had been ambushed and died, he had to take care of three children by himself, as well as practice and take care of Baicao Garden. It was really not easy!
Now that his daughter has finally established her foundation, he is relieved. Ever since the spiritual energy in the retreat room fluctuated violently half a month ago, he has never felt at ease. Only those who have experienced the foundation building process know the dangers involved! Now he can breathe a sigh of relief and feel happy and proud of his daughter.
All that remains is to temper the meridians and nourish the body.
While making the meridians stronger, he also used magic power to nourish the body. This lasted for about three months, completing the 100-day foundation-building and allowing his own life form to complete the transformation.
From now on, her life level is very different from before. With magic power to constantly nourish her body, as long as she doesn't suffer incurable injuries in the future, it is almost certain that she will live to 240 years old.
He told his daughter to focus on nourishing her body, and repeated his techniques and experiences.
He took out the second-level medium-grade spiritual weapon Qingping Sword and the second-level low-grade spiritual weapon Xuangui Shield that he had prepared in advance and gave them to her. He asked her to refine them while he was at it, as the journey back would not be peaceful.
On the way back, I should take a detour to a market I have never been to before and sell the red fruits in my hands.
Of the 48 Centennial Red Fruits he brought this time, only 8 were sold at the auction. The transaction price for each was between 2100 and 2300. After deducting a 16000% handling fee, he received about spirit stones.
There are also 2 pieces that were traded on the black market, for 3600 spirit stones, and 38 red fruits are still in hand.
Try to finish the attack on the way back. I wonder how things are going at home. I wonder if Ling'er's spiritual roots are good? Maoxiang's foundation-building ceremony should be over!
There was also good news from the Lin family's Jiufeng Mountain. After taking the Zhu Fruit, my parents and second uncle all succeeded in advancing.
Now my father and second uncle are both at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and they need to start polishing their spiritual energy to prepare for building their foundation. My mother is still a little short of that, and is now at the eighth level of Qi Refining, but she will be there soon.
Wait for grandpa to come back and give them the Earth Soul Fruit to enhance their soul power, so that their foundation building will be more secure in the future.
Since the celebration ended, Lin Changqing returned to his original rhythm. He practiced every morning, and went to Baicao Garden and Aoyun Peak to take care of the spiritual medicine fields during the day. At night, he practiced spells and entered the space to produce spiritual medicines and fruits.
The only difference is that there is a group of amethyst scorpions that love to bask in the sun. Now Lin Changqing releases the amethyst scorpions in Ao Yun Peak.
When they are full, they all lie down on the rocks to bask in the sun. 124 of them lie together and look very crowded.
Chuyi's nest is also in Ao Yun Peak. Fortunately, both sides have the aura of Lin Changqing, and Lin Changqing has reminded them many times, so they all know that they are one family, so they can live in peace.
The one who has changed the most in the family is the younger sister Lin Ling. Because she has spiritual roots, she was given a generation name and entered the family tree. She is ranked 36th among her peers and is now officially called Lin Changling.
During Fourteenth Uncle's foundation-building celebration, the clan leader personally brought her into the core of the mountain protection formation and protected her tightly for fear that she would let outsiders know.
She was not able to watch the fun and was very unhappy. However, Lin Changling's talent for cultivation was really great.
It took her three days to successfully draw in Qi, and she officially advanced to the first level of Qi Refining in ten days. She practiced the same technique as the Sixth Elder. The Three Yang Flame Art was a mid-grade Xuan-level technique that could be practiced to the perfection of foundation building.
This is already the best fire attribute technique in the family. If you want a better technique, you must collect it yourself or buy it from Wanbao Pavilion.
Now, two or three months have passed, and she is almost at the peak of the first level of Qi Refining. If it weren't for the pressure from the Third Elder, who asked her to lay a solid foundation, she might have reached the second level of Qi Refining now.
Compared with her, Lin Changqing was depressed. He could only practice harder. Fortunately, he had Lin Changliu. In fact, Lin Changqing's practice speed was now comparable to that of a person with four spiritual roots.
As Lin Changliu grows up, the space will become larger. Lin Changqing's cultivation aptitude will get better and better until he catches up with the cultivation speed of the Tianlinggen, or even surpasses them, but the resources required are absolutely astronomical!
So now he not only had to work hard to cultivate, but also had to earn more spirit stones for Lin Changliu to absorb and digest. This two-pronged approach would allow Lin Changqing to go further on the path of cultivating immortals.
