Chapter 1567 The Early Stage of Jindan
Ling Qingxue and Song Wei are both people who know the importance, and Li Yifu is obedient to Xia Ruofei, so after listening to Xia Ruofei's words, they all looked straight and nodded.
Song Wei said, "Ruo Fei, if you are cultivating alone, you must pay attention to safety!"
They have been together with Xia Ruofei for so long, and they rarely see Xia Ruofei practicing in retreat, and this time everyone knows that Xia Ruofei is about to break through the Jindan stage, so they have actually guessed the purpose of Xia Ruofei's retreat, but they all Just didn't say it.
Xia Ruofei nodded to everyone, and then he flashed and disappeared into the night.
Li Yifu went over and instructed Zheng Yongshou, who was waiting beside the plane, and then respectfully took Song Wei and Ling Qingxue and left the apron by car.
Xia Ruofei flew all the way, and soon came to the cement house near the cliff on the west side of the island.
This is the core of the entire grand formation, and it is also the most heavily defended place on the island, but Xia Ruofei has long been familiar with the Taixu Xuanqing formation, and naturally he came here with a familiarity.
He first went to the core array plate, mobilized the formation method with his mental power, and formed a lot of protection around it, and then sat down cross-legged next to the core array plate.
Xia Ruofei thought about it and summoned the spiritual picture scroll from the palm of his hand.
Under the heavy protection of the Taixu Xuanqing Formation, this place is naturally safe. Even if the cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage can break into the island, it will take a lot of work to break through the encirclement and come to the core formation. . For ordinary people, let alone approaching, it is impossible to even snoop with the help of advanced equipment, and all they can see is a cloud of fog.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was very relieved to take out the spiritual picture scroll in this place.
Then, Xia Ruofei quickly took out a piece of array talisman from the spirit picture scroll that had been taken out, put the spirit picture scroll in a hidden corner of the room, and then began to skillfully arrange a line of protective formations around the place where the spirit picture scroll was hidden.
These talismans were made by Xia Ruofei when he was free, and they were almost all of his family.
In this way, there is a lot of protection from the Taixu Xuanqing Formation outside, and there are many formations around the Spirit Picture Scroll, which can be said to be impregnable.
After everything was arranged, Xia Ruofei entered the space with a reassuring thought.
He chose to break through in the spiritual map space, naturally, after careful consideration.
The concentration of spiritual energy in the spiritual map space is still much richer than the outside world. At the critical moment of breaking through the golden core stage, the more concentrated the spiritual energy, the better. After all, he has no experience, and can only see seniors from various cultivation books. He has no idea how much spiritual energy he needs to consume in the process of breaking through, so he still breaks through in space, which is more secure.
In addition, Xia Ruofei also clearly felt that when cultivating in the spiritual map space, not only the spiritual energy was more intense, but it seemed that the cultivation state of the whole person, including the understanding and other aspects, was obviously better than the outside world. Perhaps this is also some magical effect of the spiritual map space. , is a little benefit left by the Shanhe real person who made the spiritual map space to the younger generation.
In normal practice, this gap is nothing. At the key point of breaking through the realm, Xia Ruofei is not willing to let go of any favorable factors.
In addition, the use of the environment of the spiritual map space to make breakthroughs here is another key point, that is, the spiritual energy of the outside world has been accumulated over this period of time, and it has become richer.
So don't worry too much about the excessive consumption during the breakthrough process - in addition to absorbing energy from the chaotic space, the spiritual map space can also absorb the external aura for a supplement and purification. Here, using the spiritual map space for breakthrough, basically There is no need to worry about excessive consumption of aura and damage to the foundation of the space.
Xia Ruofei directly entered the early Yuan realm in the spiritual map space, and directly transmitted his thoughts to Xia Qing, so that he did not need to come to see him. If he did not get his own summons, he should not enter the early Yuan realm. He needed a place where he would never be disturbed. environment of.
As soon as Xia Qing sensed that Xia Ruofei had entered the space, he was about to come to see the master. After receiving Xia Ruofei's voice transmission, he quickly responded respectfully: "Yes! Master!"
Xia Ruofei then passed the jade bridge beside Lingtan and came directly to the small island in the center of the lake.
He sat cross-legged on the small square in front of the Linglong Tower, and first meditated to adjust his state to completely calm his mind.
Xia Ruofei didn't set up the time array flag, because the breakthrough was so close at hand, maybe it could be completed in one thought, and it didn't take much time at all. What's more, the early Yuan Dynasty itself has thirty times the time flow rate, which is enough to save time.
Soon, Xia Ruofei put aside all distracting thoughts and entered a state of emptiness.
There was neither sadness nor joy in his eyes, and he naturally began to run the "Da Dao Jue" mental method. The rich spiritual energy was poured into his body, scouring his meridians and dantian. After a while, the last trace of true qi in his dantian was transformed into vitality.
At that moment, Xia Ruofei felt that all the meridians in his body vibrated slightly, and the speed of "The Great Way" was obviously accelerated, and there was an indescribable feeling of comfort all over his body. From this moment, it was absorbed into the body. After the aura passes through the dantian, it will directly generate vitality instead of infuriating.
In fact, since breaking through the bottleneck of the qi refining period, Xia Ruofei has already practiced the second-level exercises of "The Great Way", but because the true qi in his body has not been completely converted into vitality, so he absorbs spiritual qi during cultivation and produces it. Yes, it is basically a mixture of vitality and infuriating. As the proportion of infuriating transformation increases, the proportion of vitality in the mixture that is cultivated increases.
Today, for the first time, he finally cultivated the first pure vitality by using the exercises on the second level of "The Great Way".
Of course, cultivating vitality is not Xia Ruofei's primary task today.
His main energy is placed in the dantian. At this moment, a large amount of vitality has been gathered in the dantian, which has been transformed by Xia Ruofei's practice in these days.
Of course, since vitality is many times purer than true qi, the same dantian can naturally hold more vitality. In contrast, Xia Ruofei's dantian now feels more empty than when he was at the ninth level of refining qi. Not a lot.
The mental method on the second floor of "The Great Way" is still running, constantly replenishing the vitality of Dantian.
The most notable sign of the initial stage of Jindan is the formation of a vortex of vitality in the dantian, which is the prototype of Jindan. As long as this vortex of vitality is formed, it means that the cultivator has reached the cultivation level of the initial stage of Jindan.
"The Great Dao Jue" is the supreme cultivation method that directly points to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The second layer corresponds to the Golden Core Stage, and naturally there is a part that describes in detail how to form the vitality vortex.
Xia Ruofei has already learned and memorized it proficiently. The main task of his cultivation this time is to form this vitality vortex.
As for the mental technique on the second floor of "The Great Way", he only needs to devote a little energy to it, and it can work naturally.
Xia Ruofei, according to the explanation of the exercises, controlled the vitality in his dantian with his mind and began to slowly rotate in a clockwise direction.
At the beginning, Xia Ruofei felt that the resistance was very large, such a huge vitality, to move a little bit as a whole, made his mental power feel overwhelmed.
He has almost thoroughly studied the second-level exercises of "The Great Dao Jue", and he is very clear in his heart that this is a normal phenomenon.
It's like in foreign Hercules competitions, you can often see the scene of Hercules pushing heavy trucks. It is also the most laborious at the beginning, and the trucks only move a little after all the strength to suckle. But the more you go to the back, the easier it will be, because the truck itself has inertia.
Now the situation in Xia Ruofei's dantian is somewhat similar.
This is still Xia Ruofei's spiritual power cultivation base far exceeding his vitality cultivation base - when he was in the middle stage of Qi refining, his spiritual power had already broken through to the spiritual gathering state equivalent to the Jindan stage. If this is an ordinary cultivator, at this stage of cultivation, the spiritual power will basically break through to the gathering spirit realm, and some people even lag slightly. In this case, it is difficult to imagine such a huge amount of vitality. And know.
Therefore, it often takes many years for ordinary cultivators to break through the bottleneck of the Qi refining stage to officially enter the Jindan stage, such as Luo Qingfeng. Mainly from the stage of foundation building to the initial stage of Jindan, although there are no bottlenecks, there are still many difficulties to overcome. Many people are stuck in the mental power, and they need to spend a lot of time to improve their spiritual power. .
Of course, when ordinary monks reach this stage, the vitality in their dantian is not as high as Xia Ruofei's in terms of quantity and quality, so they will be relatively easier.
Xia Ruofei only felt a little bit labored at this time. Under his full control, the vitality in his dantian began to take heavy steps, slowly turning clockwise in his dantian.
In order to form a vortex of vitality, it is not enough to simply rotate the vitality. In the process of rotation, it is necessary to consciously use vitality in some key positions to build a structure similar to the formation method. Only in this way, the vitality vortex finally formed can be It can be stable and continuously absorb vitality, and gradually evolve into a real golden core.
Different exercises naturally have different methods of constructing the vitality vortex, so the resulting vitality vortex is also different. In addition, the quality of the vitality vortex also has a great relationship with the quality of the vitality itself.
Therefore, Jindan is divided into nine grades, whether it is upper third, middle third or lower third, in fact, when the vitality vortex is formed, the grade of Jindan has already been determined.
The reason why Xia Ruofei attaches so much importance to this breakthrough, every step is steady and steady, and the external conditions are used to the extreme, so that the final formed vitality vortex can be of a higher grade, which determines the key part of his future cultivation path.
The vitality in the dantian slowly revolved, Xia Ruofei paid attention to the situation of vitality, and did not dare to be distracted at all.
While he fully controlled his vitality to accelerate the rotation, he continued to use his mental power to weave mysterious patterns into the vitality—this was the skeleton of the vitality vortex.
Only when the skeleton is stable can the final formed vitality vortex be stable.
Of course, Xia Ruofei has absolute confidence in "The Great Way". He knows that as long as he completes the construction of the vitality vortex meticulously according to the requirements of the exercise method, the final level of the vitality vortex should not be low.
The speed of Yuan Qi's rotation is getting faster and faster. After this inertia, Xia Ruofei doesn't need to use all his strength to drive it. On the contrary, he even started to control the speed of rotation a little, because when he was building the "skeleton", also entered a critical stage.
At this time, Xia Ruofei didn't have a trace of distracting thoughts in his mind at all, all of which were the descriptions of the second-layer exercises in "The Great Way" about building a vortex of vitality. The vitality is wrapped around it in strands, forming an incomparably mysterious network structure.
This rune network has also become more and more perfect with the operation of vitality, almost covering the entire inner wall of the dantian.
When the last rune was also integrated into the network and closely integrated with vitality, Xia Ruofei finally breathed a sigh of relief - the most problematic part of the whole process, he has successfully completed.
The next job will be much easier.
He began to push the vitality of his whole body and began to accelerate the rotation. As the speed of the rotation of vitality became faster and faster, the vitality in the dantian seemed to have a violent aura, but with the constraints of this rune network, all the violent aura was lost. It was suppressed to the death, no matter how strong the centrifugal force was, there was not a trace of it escaped.
The vitality is spinning, just like the flywheel of a giant motor. It is extremely heavy at first, but once the inertia starts to work, the speed is so fast that it is heart-pounding.
As the vitality turned to the extreme, suddenly, Xia Ruofei felt that the vitality originally under the action of centrifugal force seemed to be dissipated at any time, but now it suddenly changed, it suddenly collapsed inward, and a huge suction force also followed come.
This is like when you are on a pirate ship, and after reaching the highest point, it suddenly begins to fall, and the instant transition from overweight to weightlessness makes people's hearts seem to fly out of their chests.
This feeling is very similar, which makes Xia Ruofei feel uncomfortable.
Of course, he didn't have time to think too much. When the vitality vortex emitted suction, he suddenly felt a void in his dantian...
