The Heavens: From Knowing Whether You Rule the World

Chapter 168 Thoughts on the future of the Taiyi Changsheng Flag!

When a master and a disciple meet, a conversation is inevitable.

Above the nine heavens, white clouds are floating.

A green boat a hundred feet in size flew across the sky.

A wooden table, a pot of tea, two teacups, and two wooden stools.

Han Li consciously went forward to make tea, respectfully poured a cup for his mentor, and also poured a cup for himself.

Chu Hong was not in a hurry to drink tea. He looked at his beloved disciple with a smile and said, "Your experience over the past few decades is truly extraordinary!"

When the master and disciple were talking, Han Li talked a lot about his experiences over the years.

Over the years, he has had quite a lot of experience. He has met many people and played many dungeons, most of which were extremely dangerous.

Either some monks are trying to kill for money, or some old guys are trying to instigate murder.

Han Li, who had always been under the protection of his mentor, also gradually grew up and deeply understood the wickedness of human nature.

Fortunately, he had a little bit of luck, was careful enough, and had a bunch of talismans given to him by his mentor, so he escaped death many times and remained safe and sound.

The dangerous murderous intention naturally hides many opportunities, and there are endless chances to find spiritual herbs and medicines.

He also had some resources that Chu Hong sent him, so he quietly re-cultivated the Third Level of Chongyuan Gong, which allowed him to make a big step forward and form a pill in one leap.

Compared to Han Li, a timid and unrestrained cultivator who had a rough life, Han Li, who had a Nascent Soul cultivator as his master, felt much more confident. He was cautious in his every move, but also had a sense of generosity and a sense of being a "second-generation immortal".

This time, Chu Hong came out of retreat with the cultivation level of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and his status as the "second generation immortal" became even more prominent.

A casual cultivator, but a second generation immortal!

Han Li smiled slightly, his eyes moved slightly, but a hint of slowness flashed across them.

Chu Hong took a look, chuckled, gently picked up the steaming hot tea and took a sip, his eyes brightening slightly.

"Oh? Your tea-making skills have improved a lot!"

He has always loved plain tea and is good at tasting tea, but he could tell the improvement of his beloved disciple's tea-making skills with just one sip.

Of course, saying this is also to convey a message.

He could tell at a glance that Han Li seemed to have something to say, but was a little hesitant. It was definitely not something he had experienced in recent years.

Look, I specifically mentioned the matter of clear tea.

With tea as a accompaniment, you can say anything.

Han Li felt relieved, and a smile appeared on his dark face. He touched his nose unconsciously and said, "My disciples may have a hard time practicing, but a cup of tea is like Master's constant care. After a cup of tea, I no longer feel bitter or tired, and my heart is firm."

"Oh?" Chu Hong raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the dark-skinned young man with some surprise.

In fact, Han Li's words were too flattering, and they sounded like the words of a treacherous minister.

A person who is always simple and honest says something like this, and it is obvious that he has something to ask for.

Is it really that difficult to ask for something?
Han Li blushed. These words sounded a bit flattering, but that's exactly what he did.

Firstly, he truly admired his mentor.

He has always been by his mentor's side, and through the influence of his mentor, he has gradually learned many of his mentor's habits.

Just like tasting tea.

The taste of pure tea is bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet.

When you feel troubled and doubtful in your practice, a cup of tea can bring you comfort.

As for his firm determination in the Tao, he did have some artistic processing in it.

Apart from the time he went to see his younger sister's wedding, his faith in Taoism has basically not been shaken.

Just like a green robe and jade belt.

He didn't know if it was influenced by his mentor, but once he was flying in the air, he felt that his green shirt was agile and he looked like a hidden master.

Gradually, he got used to wearing green robes.

Han Li quietly looked at his mentor's dark green Taoist robe and lowered his head slightly.

In fact, the dark green Taoist robe is obviously a level higher than the blue robe, especially when it moves without wind, it has the style of a master.

However, due to his low level of cultivation, he might not be able to display the grandmaster's demeanor in the dark green Taoist robe.

In short, he admired his mentor very much.

Secondly, he really had something to ask for.

Ahem, just a little flattery.

"What is it that makes a good man speak so elegantly?"

Chu Hong gently put down the cup and looked at his good disciple slowly.

Flattery was also corrected into elegant speech.

When he saw Han Li's expression, he was sure that he really had something difficult to ask for.

"There are many bottlenecks on the path of cultivating immortals. The road ahead is long and arduous!"

Han Li sighed as he spoke, feeling deeply that cultivating immortals was difficult.

"Disciple, you have encountered a major bottleneck in your practice."

He, Han Li, has four spiritual roots and can easily form a pill!
But this is just on the surface.

It seemed easy to form the elixir, but if he didn't have the little green bottle to refine the elixir, if he didn't have the "Three Turns of Heavy Yuan Gong" given by his master, and if he didn't have the talisman resources provided by his master, he would have died long ago.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are too many old guys.

There are traps and killings everywhere, and entrapments and fights everywhere. It is really hard to relax, and one can't help feeling tired and exhausted.

Even though he has already solved the Jindan stage, he has no confidence at all when it comes to the Nascent Soul stage.

Even, he may not necessarily practice to the peak of Jindan in order to achieve Nascent Soul.

No one knows better than him how difficult it is to cultivate to immortality with four spiritual roots.

The moment he entered the Jindan stage, he already clearly sensed the existence of a bottleneck.

It was an indescribable discomfort. If one had better spiritual roots, one would not have such a feeling at all.

Han Li even believed that if he didn't work hard, the early stage of Jindan would hold him back for hundreds of years and block his path to becoming an immortal.

"Oh? Where do I start?"

Chu Hongqing's eyes moved slightly. Shouldn't young people who have reached the Jindan stage be ambitious?
"When I reached the early stage of Danjie, I felt that Dantian was crowded and it was difficult for spiritual energy to flow in."

Han Li smiled bitterly. His Dantian could not hold too much spiritual energy, which meant that his cultivation could not increase too much.

In this case, the practice stops and the path to forming the elixir and cultivating the immortals is naturally difficult and it is difficult to make any progress.

This is also the reason why most cultivators in the early stage of Jindan are stuck.

The Dantian still has some capacity, and can slowly absorb spiritual energy, but it cannot increase the cultivation level too much, and basically has to stay in the early stage of Danjie.

Theoretically speaking, there is basically no bottleneck from the early stage to the middle stage of Jindan, and you just need to absorb spiritual energy.

Most of the early stage cultivators cannot reach the middle stage of Jindan in their lifetime because their Dantian is not big enough and it is difficult to make any progress.

This is a bottleneck caused by external forces, not a bottleneck in spiritual practice.

The only way to break this bottleneck is to widen the Dantian.

Unfortunately, your Dantian cannot be expanded whenever you want. Basically, you can only expand your Dantian by flushing it with a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth when you advance.

In addition, the size of Dantian also depends on various factors.

Fighting with magic can hurt the Dantian. If it is not well maintained, the Dantian will certainly shrink and lose its energy. In mild cases, it will be difficult to make any progress in cultivation, and in severe cases, it is not uncommon for one to fall back to a lower realm.

If something unexpected happens during advancement and the Dantian is damaged, the result will basically be a significant drop in cultivation, or it will be difficult to advance at all.

In addition, cultivators who use Sha Dan to advance to Jin Dan will never be able to advance in their lifetime, because their Dantian cannot accommodate even a little bit of spiritual energy. It is not uncommon for him to be unable to advance in his cultivation, and many cultivators in the early stage of Jin Dan have this problem.

The result, naturally, is a life of hardship.

Expanding Dantian is extremely difficult.

Dantian is extremely sensitive. When advancing, spiritual energy fills the body. It seems violent, but in fact, there is an inexplicable sense of comfort.

The amount of spiritual energy has always been at a critical state for cultivators.

In this state, one point more is too much, one point less is too little. The amount of spiritual energy is basically impossible to control artificially.

Fundamentally speaking, these are some advanced problems that have existed since the beginning of the Qi Refining Stage and are difficult to remedy.

He really had no other choice but to ask his mentor for help.

Chu Hong's eyes narrowed slightly. In the original novel, Han Li didn't seem to have this kind of trouble, right?

Logically speaking, with his own master, Han Li's resources are definitely much better than in the original novel.

Back when Yue State and Zijin State were in power, Han Li, as the only disciple serving them, also got some seedlings of rare spiritual herbs and medicines from the alliance.

With the help of the little green bottle, there is no problem of resource impact.

Not a resource
Chu Hong's eyes moved slightly, and he had some thoughts in his mind, but he looked at his beloved disciple with concern.

"Is it convenient to take a look at the dantian?"

In the world of cultivating immortals, some necessary sense of alienation is necessary.

In other words, this is the respect unique to the world of immortal cultivation.

It may seem distant, but it is actually the source of intimacy and trust.

Han Li was delighted and without any hesitation, he quickly released his Dantian.

Chu Hong's spiritual energy surged and gathered in his beloved disciple's dantian, where he began to comprehend it carefully.

After about a quarter of an hour, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly: "Li'er, you have poor talent, and your Dantian is naturally much smaller. Originally, you should have no hope of forming a Dan in this life. However, the third transformation of Chongyuan Gong helped you compress the spiritual energy and slightly expand the Dantian, which gave you the opportunity to form a Dan."

Han Li's eyes lit up, and his dark face flushed. "Master, is there any way to save him?"

"You already have the answer, don't you?"

Chu Hong drank a sip of tea slowly and said lightly.

His apprentice is no fool.

Even before asking for help, he probably had already thought of a solution.

However, there is a lack of determination and a desire for luck.

For this reason, I specifically asked this question.

"The third level of Chongyuan Gong?"

Han Li frowned, but couldn't hide a bitter smile, "Master, this three-turn heavy source technique is a technique to help with Dan formation, is it really effective?"

Even though Han Li was somewhat surprised, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

A Jindan cultivator, should he disperse his energy and start over again?
What if I can’t come back the next time I practice?

Chu Hong laughed and waved his hand, and a small bag of sixth-level demon pills flew out of the storage bag.

"Your three-turn Chongyuan Gong is to compress the spiritual energy and expand the Dantian to increase the chance of entering the Jindan stage. You were supposed to disperse the power three times, but your luck was good. You have entered the Jindan stage after one dispersion. There is no shortcut to cultivating immortals. You can disperse the power again and see the effect."

This time, with Chu Hong joining the game, Han Li's third level of Chongyuan Gong was only dissipated once.

This made Han Li's bottleneck much deeper. Even if he was lucky enough to enter the Jindan stage, there would still be deep bottlenecks hindering him.

If you disperse your energy and start over again, you can widen your Dantian and condense and compress your spiritual energy.

No matter which of these two is achieved, it can free up some space in the Dantian, so improving your practice will naturally not be a problem.

Without saying too much, if Han Li could practice the third level of Zhongyuan Gong twice with the Jindan level, there would basically be no bottleneck before the Yuanying level.

The essence of the triple transformation technique is to squeeze the cultivation level in order to widen the bottleneck.

This thing was originally used to squeeze spiritual energy, widen the Dantian, and increase the probability of forming a pill.

However, if we put this effect aside, the effect of squeezing spiritual energy and widening the Dantian is actually basically effective below the Nascent Soul stage, it is just a matter of how much.

Of course, once you reach the Jindan stage, the difficulty of re-cultivating three times is too high.

It would take most cultivators hundreds of years to start over from the Qi Refining Stage, there is simply no such compressed time.

Most cultivators without cheats cannot even cultivate the third level of the foundation-building period, let alone the third level of the core-forming period?
The sunk costs are too high, so basically no one dares to try and make mistakes.

But if a master alchemist like Han Li takes top-level elixirs and works hard to refine them every day, he can basically reach the stage of forming a pill in ten to twenty years.

In the final analysis, it is also a re-cultivation. The dantian has not shrunk, so the practice will be twice as effective with half the effort.

Han Li was greatly encouraged when he saw the small bag of sixth-level demon pills.

There are two reasons why he is unwilling to disperse his energy:
Firstly, practicing is not easy. After working hard for decades, who would be willing to go back to the time before liberation?

Second, they are afraid that their energies will be lost and they won’t be able to return to their cultivation.

If his power was lost and his luck was bad, he would be doomed to fail after practicing for a hundred years.

After all, the early stage is a hundred years, the middle stage, the late stage, and the Nascent Soul stage.
Lifespan is simply not enough.

However, if he had these top-grade demon pills from his mentor, he would be able to cultivate and return to his original position within 30 years, barring any accidents.

Han Li is also a ruthless man and does what he says.

"Master, I intend to do a retreat."

He stepped forward and bowed, as if he didn't want to waste any time.

"Alright."

Chu Hong waved his hand.

Han Li understood, and his storage bag moved. A green light flashed, and a smaller flying boat carried him to Tianxing City.

Chu Hong felt deeply gratified. No wonder his good disciple could achieve great things.

Without saying too much, this kind of determination is truly rare.

After practicing for a hundred years, one finally achieves the Jindan level and becomes a respected figure. Who would be willing to give up his skills and practice hard?

Chu Hong exhaled slightly, stood up and looked in the direction of Xiaohuan Island and Miaoyin Gate, then looked at Tianxing City.

His apprentice has been living in Tianxing City for these years.

However, the gold-eating bugs on Xiaohuan Island were not captured.

Treasures belong to those who are destined to have them.

The piece of golden thunder bamboo from Miaoyin Sect is also quite interesting.

The piece of grass in Han Li's hand had no roots, so it was hard to say whether it could be planted.

However, from a physiological point of view, the upper half is not dead, and the essence of the little green bottle is to accelerate the passage of time.

After a long time, it is not impossible for roots to grow.

Chu Hong, however, was interested in getting some of the half-cut Tianlei Bamboo with roots from Miaoyin Sect.

If there is really a way, maybe we can collect the three sacred trees, and use the golden thunder bamboo, soul-nourishing wood, and spirit-eye tree to refine them into several "Taiyi Longevity Flags" and create a set of formations.

If conditions permit, I can get the Tiansang sacred tree, the Jinci spiritual wood and the Xuantian fairy vine, and raise them to the level of Xuantian treasures, and create an awesome formation at the same time. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I can break all the laws of the world. Then I'll have the chance to dominate not only the human world, but also the spiritual world.

The flagpole wasn't that hard to fix.

banner?

Chu Hong's eyes moved. It must be at least a ninth-level monster, right?
With a wave of his green robe, a burst of spiritual energy danced, and Qingzhou quickly rushed towards the direction of Miaoyin Gate.
