Chapter 224 Breakthrough Failed (Please Subscribe)

Spring passes and autumn comes.

The evil spirit lake produced by Dragon Fish Island has pulled the heartstrings of many qi refining monks.

But Fang Xi still maintains her mysterious and otaku attributes, and she doesn't leave the island easily.

In the eyes of outsiders, with the second-order formation and the protection of foundation-building monks, Dragon Fish Island is as stable as Mount Tai.

Unknowingly, several years passed by, and Fang Xi also passed her 130th birthday quietly.

Indoor retreat.

The blue light around Fang Xi's body surged, illuminating the room in the retreat.

Just today, the liquid mana in his body finally accumulated to 120 drops, and he had reached the limit of the 'Aoki Longevity Technique' in the middle stage of foundation building!

This is also thanks to the fact that he gave up cultivating the 'Qinghe Sword' and practiced the 'Immortality Technique', and the progress of his magic power has also been accelerated in the past few years.

After the qi sea in Dantian expanded to its limit, Fang Xi naturally decided to try to break through to the late stage of foundation building!

As the cyan light continued to spit out, I don't know how long time passed.

Sudden!

Fang Xi's expression changed slightly, and she covered her dantian. It felt as if countless knives were being inserted into her dantian, and a look of pain appeared on her face.

puff!

The next moment, all his magic power spread out, and he opened his mouth to spit out a dark red blood mist.

"It failed..."

Fang Xi's face turned pale. She took out a second-level healing elixir from her storage bag. After swallowing it, she closed her eyes and began to refine it again.

A few hours later, he looked better. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said helplessly: "The breakthrough to the late stage of foundation building failed. This is because we have encountered a bottleneck..."

A monk's cultivation does not mean that he will be able to break through successfully if he reaches the limit of a certain realm.

Fang Xi's last successful breakthrough in the early stage of foundation building can only be said to be a coincidence and her own spiritual talent is good.

"My spiritual roots are only low-grade. Relying on the Qingmu spiritual body, I can be compared with the general high-grade spiritual roots... But even if the foundation-building monks with high-grade spiritual roots can break through to the late-stage foundation-building realm, they will be blocked when they encounter bottlenecks. It’s normal to be trapped.”

After all, after breaking through the late stage of foundation building, cultivating to the completion of foundation building is just the accumulation of mana, without any bottlenecks or checkpoints.

And how many monks in the entire Yue Kingdom have completed their foundation building and have the opportunity to form elixirs?

Even the Song family is just an ancestor of the Song family!

Fang Xi closed her eyes and looked inside, and found that she did not force a breakthrough this time, and treated her immediately after failure. The backlash caused by a failed breakthrough was not serious. If she cooperated with the healing elixir, she would be fine after a period of cultivation.

"It's just that it's a little difficult to break through the bottleneck."

Historically, when monks encountered bottlenecks when they broke through the realm, they had only a few methods.

Or swallow a pill that helps with breakthrough!

Either travel or fight to find opportunities for enlightenment!

In the end, it just takes time to grind it out!

"Elixirs that can help monks in the middle stage of foundation building break through to the later stage are too precious... I am currently trapped on Dragon Fish Island and cannot get them."

"Traveling and fighting are also impossible. Do we have to rely on time to polish it slowly?"

Fang Xi fell into thinking.

Even if he continues to meditate and practice every day, he will not break the limit of one hundred and twenty drops of liquid mana. There is no way to advance the mana, and he must break through the big realm to continue to accumulate.

Basically, except for Tianpin spiritual roots, every foundation-building monk will encounter bottlenecks, and some may even be stuck like this for a lifetime.

"Fortunately...I still have a way!"

Fang Xi slowly let out a long breath: "There are no bottlenecks in the foundation-building period of Tianpin spiritual root monks, because the talent is good enough! I am trapped by the bottleneck now, just because the talent is not enough... After I improve the talent. , it will probably be very simple to break through to the later stage.”

In fact, he felt that his Aoki spirit body was full of vitality, which was very helpful for healing.

According to this situation, as long as you wait until you recover from your injuries and try to break through a few more times, you can probably break through the bottleneck in the later stages of foundation building.

But Fang Xi has a better way!

"Within ten years, my Yimu Dharmakaya will definitely be accomplished!"

"With Yimu Dharmakaya's qualifications, this bottleneck in the later stages of foundation building can be overcome directly..."

Fang Xi cast a cleaning spell on herself, and the green robe on her body suddenly took on a new look.

Thanks to the good recovery effect of Aoki's spiritual body, his complexion is now as normal. He immediately stood up and walked outside the retreat room.

Before leaving the seclusion, Fang Xi thought for a while, lifted some of the effects of the 'Breathe Condensation Technique', and raised her cultivation level to the stage of entering the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

After all, his retreat this time was to announce to the outside world that he would try to break through the mid-term bottleneck.

It has been more than seventy years since the foundation was built before the city can break through the mid-term bottleneck. In the eyes of outsiders, it has long been hopeless for the golden elixir.

But at least it can scare some of the foundation-building robbery cultivators who are ready to move.

The news in the past few years has not been good. The news from Yan Changkong is that Baize Immortal City is in turmoil, and Ouyang Zhen is a little unable to control the situation. As a result, twenty-nine disciples of the Baifeng Mountain lineage were robbed and killed by rogue cultivators when they went out. !

Wandao Lake was peaceful for a while after the Great Elder of Youyue Sect massacred Sanfentang, but it soon became turbulent again.

There are even rumors that the ‘Long Family’, one of the seven foundation-building families in the Yue Kingdom, intends to move to Wandao Lake.

In such a precarious situation, Fang Xi felt that she needed to show off her strength to intimidate Xiao Xiao.

"Master?!"

Outside the seclusion room, Xia Houying, Zhong Hongyu, and Yan Hongxiu, who were waiting anxiously, felt the mana fluctuations on Fang Xi's body that were more powerful than before, and their faces couldn't help but show joy: "Congratulations, sir, on your successful breakthrough!"

"Sigh... I have worked hard for more than a month and barely managed to break through to the middle stage of foundation building. If I can see the scenery of the late stage of foundation building in this life, I will have no regrets."

Fang Xi shook her head and smiled bitterly.

"The island owner broke through the middle stage of foundation building without relying on the help of elixirs. It can be said that the foundation is solid... If there is a chance in the future, it may not be difficult to achieve the great road."

Zhong Hongyu quickly comforted her.

Now she has made another breakthrough in her cultivation. She has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining and has caught up with Yan Hongxiu.

As for Xia Houying?

This woman doesn't have any obsession to break through, and she seems to have encountered a bottleneck. Her cultivation has been stagnant at the seventh level of Qi Refining, but it's not bad.

Looking at Arowana Island or even Wandao Lake, everyone can be considered a master.

"Well, that's right. It's a great day today. It's time to hold a banquet to celebrate... Let someone go to Lao Zhong's place and get some more little green dragons..."

Thinking of the delicious taste of the little green dragon, Fang Xi couldn't help but move her index finger.

At this time, Xia Houying looked at Yan Hongxiu and bowed, "Master Qi... Zhong Qi has passed away."

"Oh? When did it happen?"

Fang Xi was slightly surprised.

"When the young master was in seclusion, he said that he was fine for the first two days and even went into the water to catch fish...but suddenly he couldn't get up. He stayed on the bed for two days and passed away at the end of his life..."

Yan Hongxiu reported: "Because the young master was in seclusion at the time, we did not dare to report it. Please forgive me..."

"That's all..."

Calculating his age, Lao Zhong has lived several years longer than Wei Yixi. What else can Fang Xi say?

But he finally raised fish for himself for half his life, so he said: "Let me go to his grave and ask the people around him what his last wish was. If it can be solved, let's solve it..."

…

Fish farm.

The blue horned ichthyosaur, which has always been very active, is a little sleepy, lying at the bottom of the lake.

Fang Xi came to the edge of the lake and saw a tomb in a reed field.

Around him, there were several fishermen, all in the early and middle stages of Qi refining, who were waiting carefully.

One of the middle-aged fishermen at the sixth level of Qi Refining bowed and said: "To the Island Master... Mr. Zhong had no children in his life, and now he has passed away without leaving any relics..."

"impossible……"

Fang Xi shook her head. She was pretty good to her workers. She was rewarded with spiritual stones every year and was occasionally allowed to take some spiritual fish and rice. How could she not have an inheritance?

Could it be that... he was corrupted by these people?

Thinking of this, he looked a little dangerous.

The middle-aged fisherman was excited and quickly knelt on the ground: "Island Master, here is Mr. Zhong's letter. You will know after reading it..."

"oh?"

Fang Xi received a stack of letters. The first few letters were still paper, already yellowed and bearing the traces of ancient times.

He was sensitive to it and knew it wasn't fake.

I took out one and looked at it, and I was a little surprised: "This old Zhong... actually still supports the exhibition of pictures?!"

He read Mr. Zhong's letter and found that this person had been in contact with Zhantu. From time to time, he would ask people to send some spiritual objects to Zhantu who was practicing in the Xuantian Sect.

'At first I just sent this person to send Zhan Tu to Xuantian Sect, but unexpectedly we formed a friendship...'

‘It’s even possible that Zhong Qi has pinned his destiny on Zhan Tu…’

Fang Xi didn't understand this kind of behavior, but it didn't stop him from expressing his admiration: "You are really an old man who works hard and works hard..."

"Somebody come!"

He shouted softly, and the middle-aged fisherman immediately said: "The young one is here!"

"Send a letter to Xuantian Sect Zhantu to announce the funeral!"

Fang Xi gave a simple order and then looked at the middle-aged fisherman: "What's your name?"

"I am reporting to the Lord of the Island that little Zhong Lu is the first batch of fairy seedlings after the Lord of the Island ruled Longyu Island..."

Zhong Lu replied.

"Oh, I have an impression..."

Fang Xi answered obligingly, but after all, he was a vested interest on his side, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he found that among the fishermen in the fish farm, this person had the highest cultivation level, so he said: "Then you will take over Zhong Qi’s position should be as a fish farm manager..."

"Thank you, island owner. I will try my best to get things done."

There was a hint of joy on Zhong Lu's face.

Being able to be a fish farm manager is already the highest pursuit of the male fairy seedlings of Longyu Island. After all, they are not beautiful women and cannot be selected into the Evergreen Pavilion.

Moreover, the island owner is very generous in remuneration for all his affairs. You can tell just by looking at how fat Zhong Qi is and how he can even support a sect's Qi Refining disciple.

‘Hmph… I will not help outsiders. If I have to choose, I must choose the fairy seedlings from my Zhong family. ’

Zhong Lu secretly thought that although he was just a fish farmer, he still had more than a dozen wives in the mortal world and gave birth to many children, so he was looking forward to having spiritual roots.

The other uncles and other monks from the three families are all like this!
