Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

After plowing the fields and plowing the fields, I returned to the clean hut and made myself a table of delicious food to catch the wind and wash away the dust.

After drinking and eating, he returned to bed, covered himself with the quilt as usual, and Xu Yang was about to fall asleep again.

When he came back this time, he set two goals for himself.

First, in the dream world, explore the black water restricted area and find the divine seal of the divine palace in the mouth of the giant turtle.

Second, in the real world, break through the extreme state of concentration and step into the realm of holding pills that is comparable to foundation building.

Exploring the Blackwater Restricted Area requires no skills, it’s just a matter of time.

For more than a year in reality and more than ten years in Blackwater, Xu Yang has been exploring. Although there are still no clues, Huangtian has paid off. As long as he persists, he will definitely gain something in the end.

On the contrary, in the real world, there are some difficulties and obstacles in breaking through the extreme state of concentration and holding the elixir and combining the Tao.

Although in the Tang Dynasty world, Xu Yang had already broken through once, successfully holding the elixir and entering the five realms.

But that time he achieved it through a trick. He relied on the massive essence in the Evil Emperor's relics and used powerful external forces to help him break through the realm. He did not rely on his own strength and could not be replicated in reality.

How to achieve a normal breakthrough?

According to Xu Yang's breakthrough experience in the Tang Dynasty, Song Que Shizhixuan and some successors, as well as the description and practice of "foundation building" in this world's cultivation techniques, if you want to break through, you should do this.

Whether it is martial arts, concentration, or cultivation, if you want to step into the fifth realm, you must first cultivate to perfection the three fundamentals of cultivation in the fourth realm: "body", "spirit", and "inner essence".

This condition has been met by Xu Yang. He is a master of concentration and body training, and has achieved both body and soul. In terms of inner energy, his martial arts practice and skill characteristics have already been completed.

After you have perfected the three physical and mental powers, you can try to break through the realm.

The way to break through is very simple, that is, fusion!

By merging the physical body, the soul, and the internal energy, the inside and outside are integrated and seamless, and then you can enter the five realms of cultivation, embrace elixirs in martial arts, and build the foundation of cultivation.

This concept can also be seen in the name of the realm.

In martial arts, holding elixirs does not mean condensing the golden elixir, but embracing the Dantian, which means that the martial artist's practice has been perfect both internally and externally, with no flaws or leaks. It is like a square of heaven and earth, embracing the "Dantian", the heart of heaven and earth.

Building the foundation of cultivation is a more accurate description. The combination of three elements builds the Dao foundation, and the inside and outside are integrated into one. It is the inner world of cultivation. The future golden elixir, Yuanying, and even the Yuanshen of Zifu must be nurtured on this basis.

Therefore, the key to breaking the mirror lies in fusion.

The fusion is successful, martial arts holds the elixir, and cultivation builds the foundation.

But the question is how to integrate?

There are two methods.

First, practice self-cultivation, resign yourself to fate, polish your physical body, soul, and inner energy to the limit and then merge yourself. The mind and spirit merge, the Dharma body merges, and the three elements become one. Naturally, you can break through the five realms.

Second, use external forces to achieve your own success, swallow the panacea, or treasures from heaven and earth. In short, use powerful external forces to help you complete the "three elements in one" and finally break through the five realms.

Needless to say, the former depends partly on strength and partly on luck.

The latter is different, it depends on net worth, background, and means.

In the world of cultivation, there is a pill called "Foundation Building Pill!"

Breaking through on your own and leaving it to fate is extremely risky.

If it succeeds, it's okay, but if it doesn't, the forces of the three elements will collide. At worst, it will go crazy, and the mana will run out of control, and reverse the physical body and soul, causing the foundation of cultivation to be completely destroyed. At worst, the body will explode on the spot, and both body and soul will be destroyed.

The Foundation Establishment Pill can not only help the "power of the three elements" to combine, but also prevent the collision of the three elements after failure, prevent the mana from getting out of control and destroying the foundation of cultivation. It is a necessary panacea for foundation building.

Xu Yang felt deeply about this.

In the world of the Tang Dynasty, he saw many masters in the extreme state of concentration who died due to explosions due to failure to hold the elixir. Even with his cultivation and medical skills at the time, it was difficult to save him, or it was too late to save him.

If there is a Foundation Establishment Pill, then the masters in the Tang Dynasty who can hold the pill and break the void are definitely not the only ones like Song Que Shi Zhixuan and his successors.

This shows the importance of the Foundation Building Pill.

Reality is not a dream, and there is no room for error in this aspect. Unless the skill characteristics that work here are developed, Xu Yang will definitely take the Foundation Establishment Pill to ensure that he is not lost.

But the question is, where can he find the Foundation Establishment Pill?

Although most of the prices of Foundation Establishment Pills in the market are around two to three thousand spirit stones, the price is one thing, and how to sell them is another.

This thing is not sold directly in the market of foundation-building forces. It has to wait for a big auction to be held before it can be put up for auction. The competition is extremely fierce. The starting price is two thousand, and the final transaction price is basically four or five thousand. Sometimes the price can even reach a premium of seven or eight thousand.

The golden elixir force's market is available for sale, but it is also very expensive. In addition, there are a large number of robbery cultivators hidden around the golden elixir force's market. They may not rob others if they buy them, but the foundation-building elixir...

This is still the most inferior foundation-building pill. It can only guarantee that if the foundation-building fails, the foundation will not be destroyed by the "three elements conflict".

If you want to buy high-quality or even high-quality products, the Foundation Establishment Pill, which can effectively help the "Three Elements Harmony", requires more spiritual stones and is more eye-catching.

It is too dangerous for a monk who has perfected his Qi training to obtain these things.

Even Lei Xiu is no exception.

Fortunately, Xu Yang has countermeasures.

It’s not safe to buy, so what if you practice it yourself?

Can he practice the Foundation Establishment Pill himself?

Yes, absolutely yes!

Although the Foundation Establishment Pill is called the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is actually still a "first-order" Qi refining level pill.

Theoretically speaking, a first-level alchemist can also refine foundation-building pills, but the probability of success is extremely low.

The materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill are very precious, and the cost of a single failure would be a major injury to a second-level alchemist, not to mention a first-level alchemist.

Therefore, generally speaking, only third-level alchemists can refining and producing foundation-building pills stably.

This is also the reason why major Jindanfang markets can directly sell Foundation Establishment Pills.

If you are not a golden elixir force, how can you qualify for a third-level alchemy master to join?

But these are not problems for Xu Yang.

Low success rate?

Just practice.

As long as you keep practicing and polishing, even a first-level alchemist can increase the success rate of refining the foundation-building pill.

Anyway, he has Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, and the difference in time flow speed and the resources of each world can fully support him in refining the Foundation Building Pill.

In addition, he can also complete levels in his dreams, accumulate experience again and again, and improve the success rate of "foundation building".

You don't even need to refine elixirs in the real world. You can directly use the resources in the dream world to refine the foundation-building elixir, or search for rare treasures such as the evil emperor's relics, and then use the power of the soul to teleport them back. You can still achieve your goal.

It’s true that “there is a beauty like jade in the dream, and there is a golden house in the dream”!

So, what I haven’t said yet, keep dreaming, there is everything in the dream.
