Immortal Palace Longevity

Chapter 17 Bottleneck

Three years later, Liu Yu looked like a young man in his twenties. He was much stronger and more mature than before. His cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining, and he was only one step away from the late stage of Qi Refining.

In fact, with the support of a large number of elixirs, Liu Yu had reached the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining a year ago, but encountered a bottleneck and made no progress. He had to polish his magic power carefully to make it more pure, but he still failed to break through the bottleneck of the late stage several times.

With Liu Yu's spiritual root qualifications of wood, fire and earth, he was not surprised to encounter a bottleneck in the late stage of Qi Refining.

The most enviable thing about the spiritual roots of the heavens is that there is no bottleneck before the Nascent Soul stage. As long as there are sufficient resources, they can practice all the way to the Golden Core stage without any obstacles. They are really the pride of heaven.

Liu Yu failed to break through the bottleneck again, and thought with some depression that he decided not to continue to retreat like this, and must solve the bottleneck problem first.

According to the information he had read in the Sutra Library, there are three ways to break through the current bottleneck:

The first is to break through through the battle between life and death. There is great terror between life and death, which can greatly stimulate the potential of the cultivators. The probability of breaking through the bottleneck is very high, but not everyone can face the great terror between life and death calmly, so there are still a few people who choose this method.

The second is to buy elixirs that break through the bottleneck and use the power of the elixir to dissolve the bottleneck to achieve the effect of breakthrough. However, the elixir that breaks through the bottleneck is in short supply and rarely appears. Once it appears, it will cause many cultivators to scramble for it. The price is often very high and it is not affordable for ordinary cultivators.

The third is to carefully polish the mana and repeatedly impact the bottleneck. Over time, it is also possible to succeed, but it takes a long time, which may be as short as a few years or as long as decades. This is also a common method used by most casual cultivators and ordinary sect cultivators. After all, the price of elixirs that break through the bottleneck is expensive, at least 500 spirit stones, which makes countless ordinary cultivators helpless.

Liu Yu was leaning towards the second option. He decided to go to the nearby market right away to see if he could buy a pill that could break through the bottleneck. At the same time, he would hone his mana. It was possible that the bottleneck would be loosened that day.

If both of the above options failed, Liu Yu would participate in some dangerous missions to break through the bottleneck earlier, and break through the bottleneck through life-and-death battles to seize the opportunity of the avenue!

During the past three years, Liu Yu had already mastered the art of hidden spirits and reached the first level. He was now at the peak of the middle stage of Qi Refining. Even a cultivator who had perfected Qi Refining could not see through his cultivation, unless he was a cultivator in the foundation-building stage.

Liu Yu used the art of hidden spirits to hide his own spiritual power fluctuations. He scanned it with his spiritual sense, but it was difficult to find the hidden mana breath. Only then did he feel relieved. With his current spiritual sense, which was slightly stronger than that of the late stage of Qi Refining, he could not find the problem, so ordinary Qi Refining cultivators should not be able to find it.

At the same time, he also yearned for the second level of this secret technique, which could adjust the breath and hide the strength.

However, it is common to see cultivators at the sixth level of Qi Refining in the sect, and they do not need to hide their cultivation. If they want to go to the market outside the sect, they can use a disguise method recorded in the Essentials of Demonic Cultivation to change their appearance, so that even familiar people will not recognize them.

After thinking about it, Liu Yu decided to ask Senior Sister Jiang Qiushui if she had any information about such elixirs.

This Senior Sister Jiang is good at dancing with long sleeves and has a wide range of friends in the sect. Among the familiar fellow disciples, she is the most well-informed.

After running the Wood Spirit Technique to move the Great Circulation and carefully refining the magic power, Liu Yu left the cave after completing today's meditation practice.

After leaving the cave, Liu Yu pinched his hands and blessed himself with a wind control technique. He jumped lightly in the mountains and forests, and arrived in front of Jiang Qiushui's cave in less than half an hour.

He took out a sound transmission talisman and flew into the cave. The sound transmission talisman was not blocked by the ban. Seeing this, Liu Yu waited patiently.

"Boom boom" the stone door slowly moved, Jiang Qiushui closed the restrictions of the cave, and appeared in Liu Yu's sight.

Because she was practicing in the house, she was dressed very casually, a white gauze covered her exquisite body, and her long black hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Perhaps it was the problem of the gauze material, or perhaps it was because the cultivator's eyesight was too good, Liu Yu could vaguely see the scenery in it.

He moved his eyes away slightly, not daring to look more, and forcibly suppressed the "strange movement" of his body.

Jiang Qiushui was actually quite surprised by Liu Yu's arrival. This junior brother repeatedly surprised people. In just three years, he improved his cultivation by two levels, and he was also an alchemist. It is said that he has attracted the attention of some core figures of the other courtyard faction. She has regarded Liu Yu as a cultivator with a bright future, and she did not neglect him.

Perhaps because she had just finished practicing, she looked a little lazy at this time, no longer arrogant as before, and her voice was a little soft.

"Junior Brother Liu is such a rare guest. Come in and sit down!"

She chuckled and walked into the cave with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu looked at the furnishings of Jiang Qiu Shui's cave, which were neat, small and exquisite. There were also several pots of beautiful flowers and plants placed in various corners of the cave, which was pleasing to the eye. It seemed that some kind of incense was used, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

The two came to the hall and sat opposite each other on both sides of a wooden table.

Jiang Qiu Shui reached out and poured Liu Yu a cup of spiritual tea, smoothed the few strands of hair scattered on his forehead, tucked them behind his ears, and then asked him why he came.

"To be honest, I disturbed you this time because I have reached the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining, and my cultivation has not improved at all for half a month, so I want to ask you, Senior Sister, if you have any news of this kind."

Liu Yu took a sip of the spiritual tea, and felt the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth. He organized his words for a while before saying this, but he concealed the fact that he had been stuck at the bottleneck for a year and changed it to half a month.

Jiang Qiushui rolled his eyes at him and said:

"The elixir that breaks through the bottleneck is extremely rare. The ones on the sect exchange list have long been exchanged. Once this kind of elixir is refined, it has been reserved by many cultivators with connections. If there was news about this kind of elixir, Senior Sister would have bought it herself, and she would not have been stuck at the bottleneck of the late stage of Qi Refining for two years. How could it be your turn!"

Sect Contribution is a currency used in Yuanyang Sect. There are some magic tools and elixirs that are hard to find in the outside world on the exchange list of Yuanyang Sect, and even foundation-building elixirs are available, which can only be exchanged with sect contribution.

Liu Yu was a little disappointed when he heard this. He still underestimated the rarity of the elixir that could help break through the bottleneck. Seeing that he could not get any useful information from Jiang Qiushui, and that the cultivation of several other familiar fellow disciples was not as high as hers, it would be useless to ask, so he had to think of another way and make long-term plans.

Seeing that he could not get the information he wanted, Liu Yu's interest was greatly reduced. He did not want to stay for long. He reluctantly chatted with Jiang Qiushui for a few words, drank the spiritual tea in the cup, and praised loudly:

"Good tea, this tea is really good, the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth and makes people have endless aftertaste. Junior brother has important things to do. Come to senior sister's place to taste spiritual tea next time. Goodbye!"

After saying that, Liu Yu bowed to Jiang Qiushui, said goodbye, and turned to leave.

"Hmph"

How could Jiang Qiushui not understand what this junior brother meant? She snorted softly and did not speak to keep him.
