Chapter 384 Raising Spiritual Stones
The old patriarch shook his head. The most critical problem of building the foundation by oneself is that the tendons of the cultivator cannot withstand the backlash of condensing qi into liquid.
Once the condensation of true essence fails, the true essence will explode the tendons in the body, which will cause the cultivator's tendons to shatter and die.
In order to solve this problem, the sages created the foundation-building pill, which has two effects.
First, it temporarily doubles the strength and toughness of the tendons, which can reduce the possibility of damage to the cultivator's tendons.
Second, it makes the true qi in the body milder, which will reduce the backlash after the breakthrough fails, but it will also make the true essence milder and not pure enough.
Among the ancient sages, more than one person wanted to separate the first one, but no one has been able to do it.
Because once separated, the increase in the toughness of the meridians will become only 30%, and the effect of only 30% is not very useful for the backlash of foundation building.
Although the Juyuan Pill can increase the probability by 10%, this kind of pill only makes the cultivator's true qi more vigorous. If the true qi is insufficient, it can indeed increase some probability.
But if the breakthrough fails, then the backlash will still happen.
The principles of other various drugs that assist in foundation building are nothing more than two, one is to increase the strength of the meridians, and the other is to moderate the true qi.
However, it is extremely difficult to increase the strength of the meridians of a cultivator. In addition to the foundation building pill, the most powerful auxiliary pill can only increase the strength of the meridians of a cultivator by 30%.
"Even if it is tempered with such a stunning divine object as the Hongmeng Purple Qi, it can only double the strength of the meridians."
"It is almost impossible to achieve this level with pills made from ordinary treasures."
Chen Nianzhi pondered, and after a while, he said: "Maybe we can find another way without the help of drugs?"
"What method?" The old patriarch's eyes lit up slightly, and he couldn't help asking: "Do you have an idea?"
"I don't know if it will succeed for now, I will study it after some time."
Chen Nianzhi shook his head and said calmly.
After this topic, Chen Nianzhi took a sip of tea and asked, "By the way, I heard that Uncle Qinghao took the Jindan some time ago. What's the result now?"
"He entered the realm of false elixir."
The old patriarch smiled and said that Chen Qinghao used a Jindan to break through the false elixir realm, which was considered to be quite normal.
Calculating carefully, Chen Qinghao is still a few years away from 300 years old. At this age, the false elixir cultivator still has great hope of breaking through the Jindan realm in the future.
Chen Changxuan took a sip of tea, and then said: "In the past few years, True Lord Fei Ye has refined several furnaces of Jindan. It is estimated that Jizhou has added a lot of Jindan cultivators."
"Leaving aside other countries, Ziyuan Sect has added a fake Dan, Cangqing Xianmen has added another Jindan Zhenren, and Cangqiong Jianzong has also added a fake Dan."
"In addition, Su Mingwei used Jindan for the third time three years ago, and indeed broke through the Jindan realm."
"And Xu Ganyang, Pan Boyuan and others have also tried..."
As the old patriarch talked, Chen Nianzhi had a certain understanding of the situation in Jizhou.
After this monster rebellion, the number of Jindan cultivators in Jizhou's immortal world began to increase. Qi State received more than a dozen Jindan as compensation. It is estimated that six or seven Jindan cultivators will be added in a hundred years.
It is estimated that other countries will also increase a little, and Chu State has changed more. The newly added fake Dan cultivators are expected to be supported by their respective forces in the next hundred years, and there is a good hope of breaking through the Jindan.
However, while some people are rising, others are gradually falling.
Pan Boyuan broke through the Jindan realm again a few years ago. At the age of 380, he did not use any external objects to impact the Jindan realm, but in the end he did not even break through the false elixir realm.
After this failure, he needed to recuperate for a decade before he could break through again. It can be said that Pan Boyuan's path has been completely ruined.
Even if he took three third-level longevity pills to increase his lifespan by nearly a hundred years, there was almost no hope of breaking through the Jindan realm.
This made Chen Nianzhi sigh. Pan Boyuan was a cultivator with thunder spirit roots. His talent was not bad. Unfortunately, the defeat caused by Qingyang Sect two hundred years ago caused the Pan family to completely decline.
In recent years, Pan Boyuan has been focusing on the family, but neglected his own practice, and finally did not get the opportunity to form a Jindan.
"This Pan Boyuan..."
Chen Nianzhi sighed and said, "There are still many third-level spiritual apricots in the clan library. Send him one in a few years."
"Yes." Clan leader Chen nodded.
In addition to Pan Boyuan, Xu Daoyuan, with the support of Xu Ganyang, took a Jindan and broke through to the realm of false elixir.
Xu Daoyuan broke through the purple mansion when he was over 110 years old. He was also a famous genius in Chu State. Now, hundreds of years have passed, and he has finally touched the threshold of the Jindan realm.
This person is about the same age as the old patriarch. He is not more than 350 years old now. It seems that he has a chance to break through the Jindan.
Chen Nianzhi thinks that whether this person can break through the Jindan depends on whether the Xu family can support him to form another Jindan in a few decades.
After the two talked about the affairs of Chu State, Chen Nianzhi said: "I will go to travel outside Jizhou in a few days."
"This time we are going to exchange some Tianjing, which requires a large amount of materials from the family."
"Origin Tianjing?"
The old patriarch's eyes moved slightly. Tianjing is a precious treasure traded with Yuanying Zhenjun.
Chen Nianzhi is going to exchange Tianjing at this time, probably to buy the mother earth energy or fifth-level treasures in the future.
Thinking of this, the old patriarch nodded and said: "I will make arrangements."
"I can rest assured that."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and then returned to Lingzhou Lake.
The old patriarch began to mobilize the monks in the clan and began to allocate various materials to prepare spiritual stones.
The family has accumulated a lot of spiritual stones over the years, and the old patriarch managed to draw out eight million spiritual stones in one go.
The amount of spiritual stones in stock was only a small amount, and the old patriarch even distributed it to the monks in the clan, and used the family contribution to purchase the spiritual stones in the hands of the monks.
There are tens of thousands of monks in the Chen family. Some of these people have produced hundreds of spiritual stones, while many have produced thousands or even tens of thousands of spiritual stones. This alone has bought back 10 million spiritual stones.
Then he used the family's various spiritual mountains as guarantees. From then on, the major immortal clans in Chu State borrowed money one by one and collected millions of spiritual stones in one go.
In addition to selling materials at discounted prices and recovering spirit stones through various means, after three months of busy work, more than 30 million spirit stones were raised for Chen Nianzhi.
"This time I am afraid that most of the spiritual stones circulating in the Chu Kingdom have been removed."
In Lingzhou Lake, Chen Nianzhi looked at the mountains of spiritual stones piled up in the storage bag and couldn't help but sigh.
There are too many spirit stones transferred this time, and it is estimated that Chu State's spirit stone reserves will be greatly reduced in the future.
