Chapter 81 Ugly Daodan
The thunder tribulation was so powerful that it naturally had a huge impact on Shenjian Peak and even the entire Tianmen Mountain. Many cultivators came to Shenjian Peak at the same time to inquire about the details of the thunder tribulation and wanted to know who caused it.
To these people, Ye Zhichen evaded them by saying that he accidentally caused the heavenly tribulation by practicing the secret method. As for the huge "roll" character that even the other peaks could see clearly, Ye Zhichen also explained that it was due to an ancient secret treasure he obtained by chance, which gradually calmed down the curious people.
After beating the last cultivator who came to inquire, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but secretly exhaled. With his identity and the secret treasure and secret method, he finally suppressed the matter. This was because of his reputation as the "ruthless sword saint". If it weren't for the fact that everyone knew that he was cold and ruthless and didn't like to be disturbed by outsiders, it is estimated that those people would not have left until now.
After returning to the house, Ye Zhichen nodded slightly to Zi Yuan who had been guarding Li Chuyi, and then shook his head helplessly at Li Chuyi who was meditating with his eyes closed to stabilize his cultivation.
Ye Zhichen had seen thunder tribulations before, but who had ever seen a little Jindan cultivator create thunder tribulations?
You should know that in the nine realms of the human world, from Qi training to ascension, only the tribulation period before ascension will encounter heavenly tribulations, and at least five tribulations must be overcome during the tribulation period.
The first level of the heart demon asks the heart of the Tao, and the second level of the evil wind forges the bones and tendons.
The third level of the heavenly fire refines the flesh, and the fourth level of the earth and water escapes the mortal world.
The fifth level of heavenly thunder appears in the mortal world, and it is expected to become a fairy.
Almost every cultivator knows this ballad. Under normal circumstances, a cultivator can enter the Ascension Period after passing through the five heavenly tribulations. After raising their cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Human Realm, they can ascend to the Immortal Realm when the opportunity comes. Only a very small number of people with cultivation that defies the heavens will be feared by the Heavenly Dao, and several more heavenly tribulations will be sent down in addition to the five tribulations in an attempt to kill these unreasonable cultivators.
Therefore, although passing through the tribulation is terrible, being able to induce the heavenly tribulation proves the extraordinary cultivation of the cultivator, and is therefore also the honor of a cultivator.
Before the Tribulation Period, no cultivator had ever encountered a heavenly tribulation, let alone the thunder tribulation that Li Chuyi had just induced, which would only be encountered after the five heavenly tribulations.
Sitting cross-legged beside Li Chuyi to protect him, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but frowned as he watched him meditate and practice. Although he had previously thought that Li Chuyi's cultivation was quite strange, Ye Zhichen attributed it to the Taoist priest, guessing that it might be due to some extraordinary skills and methods that the Taoist priest had taught him. But the scene of death and thunder covering the sky just now made Ye Zhichen understand that there must be some secrets on Li Chuyi that he didn't know, and this secret might not even be known to Li Chuyi himself.
But his master Tianyi Daozun must know, otherwise he would not have given the hexagram mirror to Li Chuyi for protection and left a way to crack it in it. Think about the runes that flew out of the mirror just now. Those runes only formed a word and blasted the thunder calamity apart. The more Ye Zhichen thought about it, the more horrified he felt.
Even the Taoist technique left by Tianyi Daozun in the magic weapon has such power, so what is Tianyi Daozun's own cultivation?
Ye Zhichen couldn't guess what the Taoist's cultivation was, but he was sure of one thing, it was definitely not just in the Ascension Period! At least he had never heard of any great power in the Ascension Period who could blast away the calamity cloud with just one Taoist technique.
If Ye Zhichen's thoughts were known to Li Chuyi, he would probably curl his lips in disdain and tell Ye Zhichen that the Taoist had retreated. He had followed the Taoist priests since he was a child, and he had seen many abnormal aspects of the Taoist priests. He had seen this calamity cloud being dispersed by a Taoist priest's shouting several times, not to mention a Taoist spell.
At this time, he was already immersed in cultivation, unaware of the passage of time.
Under the guidance of the "Taoist Canon", as the many skills he had learned were running at the same time, the round Taoist pill that had been slowly rotating in the Dantian position of his lower abdomen began to rotate faster and faster.
As the speed increased, strands of mana mixed with the strange aura cultivated by the "Taoist Canon" were constantly thrown out, turning into various liquid-like mana flows to refill the meridians that had been emptied before. At the same time, as the Taoist pill rotated, a faint suction force began to appear around Li Chuyi, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy in the surrounding air. After these spiritual energies entered the body, they were not directly infused into the meridians as before, but were first absorbed by the constantly rotating Dao Dan, and after being purified and compressed, they formed a new liquid-like mana flow, which was then thrown out of the Dan and filled into the meridians.
I don't know how long it took, until Li Chuyi felt a little tired, he stopped. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Ye Zhichen and Ziyuan, who also looked concerned.
Seeing Li Chuyi wake up, Ziyuan was relieved, nodded slightly to him, and then floated back to the Fumo Mirror. Ye Zhichen smiled and said, "How is it, do you feel any difference?"
"I feel like I'm a lot stronger." Li Chuyi said, frowning slightly again, "But my mana seems to have decreased. I haven't filled my meridians after practicing for so long. I feel that my body is still empty."
"That's right." Ye Zhichen smiled slightly. "After your mana is compressed and purified by your Dao Dan, it becomes more refined, with higher quality than before, but less in quantity. For example, a ball of mana the size of a washbasin before may be compressed to the size of a fist after the Jindan stage, and may even be smaller. This will free up the meridians in your body and allow you to continue to practice and improve. As you continue to practice in the Jindan stage, your mana will be compressed again and again until it can no longer be condensed, and you will reach the peak of the Jindan stage. At that time, you need to integrate your soul into the Dao Dan and become one with it. If you succeed, you will enter the next realm - the Refining God Realm."
Li Chuyi's face suddenly became clear, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "Then how small can it be compressed at most?"
"It varies from person to person. Some people are not talented enough, or their skills are not enough, and they may only have one-tenth of the original. And some people are born with genius, or their skills are against the sky, and they may even condense their own mana to a few tenths of the original, or even one percent." Ye Zhichen explained.
"So, the more concentrated it is, the more powerful it will be. The most powerful one may be dozens or even hundreds of times more powerful than before?" Li Chuyi was stunned.
Ye Zhichen smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, this is also the first watershed in the cultivation of cultivators. Before the Jindan stage, even if there is a difference between high and low, the gap between cultivators will not be very large, because the human body is so big and there are so many meridians. Even if you are fat and your meridians are thicker, you are only slightly more powerful than others. After the Jindan stage, the capacity of the meridians is only one aspect. The most important thing is your refinement of your own mana."
Li Chuyi couldn't help but be fascinated, thinking that if he could refine his mana to one thousandth or one ten-thousandth of the original, wouldn't he be able to beat those old monsters in the Yuanying stage and Yuanshen stage with a wave of his hand with the cultivation of the Jindan stage?
After telling Ye Zhichen about his idea, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but laugh. He stretched out his hand and tapped Li Chuyi, saying with a smile: "You, what are you thinking about? According to your idea, the cultivators should not cultivate the spirit, nor form the Nascent Soul and the Nascent Soul, but should concentrate on refining the mana. You should know that the quality of the mana is different in the different realms of the cultivators. Just like you are completely different now from you before the Dan formation. This qualitative change is fundamental. Not to mention crossing two levels, even two adjacent realms are almost impossible to compete. In this world, except for a very few people who can cross levels to fight, if the rest of the people challenge people who are higher than their own realm, it is no different from seeking death."
Li Chuyi heard this, scratched his head with a silly smile, but he was very dissatisfied in his heart. Thinking about his many fellow practitioners of the same technique, he should also be considered a perverted and heaven-defying person. When his own skills are improved, he doesn't believe that he can't fight across levels.
Silently sensing the Daodan in Dantian, Li Chuyi murmured, "Daodan, Daodan, whether I can walk sideways in the future depends on you. Although you are a little ugly, ugly people have always been weird since ancient times. I believe that since you are cultivated by me, you must be a perverted Daodan."
"Ugly?" Ye Zhichen was amused when he heard it, and asked with a smile, "Why is your Daodan ugly? Daodan is round and radiant, how can it be ugly?"
Li Chuyi scratched his head and said, "No! My Daodan was round before, but after the mana in the Daodan was refined, it became bumpy, just like a colorful little stone."
Ye Zhichen frowned, thinking about the weirdness when he formed the Dan before, afraid that Li Chuyi would have any problems, he stretched out his hand to his lower abdomen and said, "I'll help you take a look, relax your mind and don't resist."
Li Chuyi followed his words, and after relaxing his mind, he felt a gentle breath entering his Dantian, which was Ye Zhichen's breath.
Ye Zhichen used his mind's power to probe into Li Chuyi's Dantian. When he saw the Dao Dan floating in the center of the Dantian, which looked like a small colorful stone with pits and pits, he couldn't help but shrink his pupils. His mind approached the Dao Dan and sensed it slightly. Even with Ye Zhichen's concentration, he couldn't help but change color and exclaimed.
"Dao Seed! This is a Dao Seed!!!"
