Chapter 339 White Jade Pill

In Yunwu Mountain, after scaring away Song Qingyu, the Fire Scale Leopard gathered the scattered subordinates again, but it did not choose to return to its nest. Instead, it looked at the huge volcano not far away with fear, and then roared softly a few times and changed direction with these low-level monsters to the south.

Not long after the Fire Scale Leopard left, a somewhat cold voice suddenly sounded in a hot cave behind the volcano.

"Alas! Someone has just arrived nearby, dear disciple, it seems that we have to change places again!"

"This ghost place is too hot and stuffy, and I don't want to stay here for a long time. Now there are only a few spiritual objects left to refine this last magic weapon. I need to go to the market to find it. Master, don't worry, we will soon reach the day of success."

"Haha. Disciple is right!"

After a crazy laugh, the two voices quickly disappeared in the cave.

——

At the foot of Guyang Mountain, in an inn in Yangshanfang, Song Qingming was carefully looking at a golden pill in his hand.

"Senior Fenghe, after I refine this white jade pill, can I really have a chance to break through to the seventh level of foundation building?"

After Song Qingming muttered to himself, a breeze blew past his ears, and a somewhat old voice suddenly sounded from the mouth of a palm-sized crane puppet beast on the table.

"Your magic power has been polished to perfection, but you have not been able to break through. What you lack is just a spiritual object that can guide the cyclone of your magic power. Although the effect of the white jade pill is not as good as the realm-breaking pill, there is still a great hope for you to break through after refining this pill.

It's also because your aptitude is too poor. If you were replaced by a cultivator with better spiritual roots, you wouldn't need the white jade pill at your state, and you would almost be able to break through automatically in a short time."

Hearing that Senior Fenghe mentioned his spiritual root aptitude again and hit him, Song Qingming could only shake his head helplessly.

Spiritual root aptitude is something that cultivators are born with, and there is no way to change it. Although I have deeply felt the many disadvantages of not having the same spiritual roots as others, I have already gotten used to it after so many years.

Feng He's words are true. Some people are born with strong spiritual roots and can stand at the top of the world of immortal cultivation without much effort. But what this Yuanying master who once stood at a high position with extraordinary talent today can't see is that more people in the world of immortal cultivation don't even have spiritual roots, and can only be ordinary mortals with a lifespan of dozens of years.

Although Song Qingming knew very early that he had four spiritual roots and would not have much prospects for cultivation, he never complained about the injustice of heaven in this regard in his heart for so many years. Compared with those childhood playmates who have turned into yellow earth, he has been able to enter the Tao and practice and live to this day. His fate is better than many people.

Whether it is an immortal cultivator or an ordinary mortal, people always have to be more content to be better.

It has been four or five days since Song Qingming came to Yangshanfang. This time, Song Qingming was lucky. He found the spiritual objects he wanted to buy. He also found a white jade pill in Tiandan Pavilion that might help him break through his cultivation.

Since he reached the sixth level of foundation building, Song Qingming soon found that his cultivation had encountered the biggest bottleneck after foundation building. Even though he tried many pills, he still could not successfully break through to the late stage of foundation building.

Song Qingming succeeded in foundation building at the age of 46. It has been 40 years now. In the first 30 years, he broke through one level of cultivation in an average of 5 to 6 years. Although this is not considered particularly fast among foundation building cultivators, it has exceeded 70% to 80% of the same level cultivators.

However, after reaching the sixth level of foundation building, it has been almost 12 years. Although Song Qingming has already polished the mana in his body to perfection, he has never been able to successfully break through his cultivation. The last time he encountered such a powerless situation in cultivation was when he broke through the fourth level of Qi Refining before going down the mountain.

At that time, Song Qingming finally relied on the help of his elder brother and others to finally gather the spirit stones and exchange them for a Qi-gathering pill from the family's gold storage pavilion to assist in the breakthrough.

Now Song Qingming's cultivation has reached the sixth level of foundation building. The best elixir that can help foundation-building cultivators break through to the late stage of foundation building is a third-level elixir called Breaking Barrier Pill.

It's a pity that spiritual objects above the third level in Weiguo basically don't appear in the market. The only place Song Qingming knows of such elixir is the Good Merit Pavilion in Xiaoyao Sect, but the merit required to exchange for Breaking Barrier Pill is very high. The Song family has accumulated merits for so many years, but still can't exchange for such spiritual objects.

Although Song Qingming is not short of spirit stones now, he has not found a way to exchange for this kind of elixir. He has also visited Yangshanfang many times in the past few years to inquire about the news of Breaking Barrier Pill, but he has never found a way.

Even in the several auctions held by the Tiandan League, he had not seen this kind of elixir, which really disappointed Song Qingming. If the White Jade Pill in his hand could not help him break through his cultivation this time, he could only go to other countries near Weiguo to inquire about the news of the Barrier Breaking Pill.

The White Jade Pill that Song Qingming got this time was also suggested by Feng He after he failed to find spiritual objects to break through several times. Unexpectedly, he was lucky enough to buy this kind of elixir from Yin Ling of the Tiandan Pavilion.

White Jade Pill is different from Barrier Breaking Pill. Although it can help the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Period to break through their cultivation, the effect is far worse. This kind of elixir is generally used by cultivators to assist other spiritual objects to break through.

Although White Jade Pill is not a particularly popular elixir, it is also a second-level high-grade elixir. This kind of spiritual object is already the highest-grade elixir even in the Tiandan Pavilion. Song Qingming has been booking with Yin Ling for more than a year before he got one from her.

"Senior! I promise you that as long as I can successfully break through to the late stage of foundation building this time, I will leave as soon as possible to help you find the body you want, and I won't let you wait too long."

"Well! As long as you haven't forgotten this, although my life span is not much left, there are still many things that have not been completed. If you can successfully help me find a body, when I recover to my previous cultivation level, it won't be difficult to help you form a pill in the future. You can rest assured about this."

Although Feng He occasionally reminded Song Qingming to go out and help him find a suitable body in recent years, he also knew that Song Qingming's current cultivation level was not high, so he didn't urge him too much.

When Feng He and Song Qingming talked about their cooperation, he also promised to help Song Qingming successfully form a pill. Although Song Qingming was still far from forming a pill, Feng He also knew that if he couldn't help him get through the late stage of foundation building now, it would be difficult to motivate Song Qingming to form a pill in the future.
