Mortals' aspirations to cultivate immortality

Lin Yi spent more than a day consolidating his cultivation.

After stopping the exercise, Lin Yi opened his eyes, tested his strength, and found that it had about doubled.

Gululu--

Lin Yi's stomach growled, and only now did he realize that he hadn't eaten anything in the past two days.

Immortal cultivators do not eat the fireworks of the world. That is after the foundation building period. Even though the immortal cultivators in the Qi Refining Period do not need three meals a day like ordinary people, they still need to eat to maintain their bodies.

It is said that after the cultivation level reaches the foundation building stage, the immortal cultivator can independently absorb the energy in the air to reach the state of truly transcending the world.

Therefore, there is another saying that only when a cultivator reaches the foundation-building stage can he be considered a true cultivator.

"In other words, I am not even a true immortal cultivator now." Lin Yi sighed and could only walk out of the room.

Fortunately, this inn provides free food, otherwise Lin Yi is so strapped for money now that he really doesn't know how to survive in this huge world of immortality.

In the past, when Lin Yi was in Yaowang Valley, all food was provided by Yaowang Valley, and gold and silver were rarely needed.

Now that he came to Luoyunxian City, he needed to use spirit stones everywhere, so Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a pressure.

"It seems that if I want to survive in this world of immortality, I need to have a way to make money." Lin Yi came to the hall below the inn.

The shopkeeper has been on the counter, reading a travel journal.

"Shopkeeper, bring some food." Lin Yi interrupted him.

"Okay." The shopkeeper looked at Lin Yi: "Fellow Taoist, do you want ordinary meals or meals made from spiritual rice?"

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and then asked: "What's the difference?"

The shopkeeper smiled slightly: "This ordinary meal is naturally the same as that of mortals. As for the meal made from Lingzhu Lingmi, it has a touch of spiritual energy. After eating it, it will not only nourish the body, but also Moreover, there are very few impurities in Lingzhu and Lingmi.”

"Fellow Taoists also know that the more mortal food a cultivator eats, the more impurities will accumulate in the body, which will have a great impact on the path to immortality. If you want to remove those impurities, you need to use the Marrow Cleansing Pill, which is also a cleansing pill. The reason why marrow pills are always in short supply.”

"How much does the food made by Lingzhi Lingmi cost?" Lin Yi was still concerned about this issue. The shopkeeper had been promoting Lingzhi Lingmi, so he probably needed to collect additional spiritual stones.

The shopkeeper smiled slightly: "Not much, you only need to pay three low-grade spiritual stones per month."

"Three spiritual stones!" Lin Yi was shocked.

"Haha." The shopkeeper's expression remained unchanged: "Friend Taoist, why don't you think about the value of the Marrow Cleansing Pill? Three spiritual stones a month, only thirty-six dollars a year, and three hundred and sixty spiritual stones in ten years. "

"As the saying goes, if you don't build a foundation at fifty, then building a foundation is a fantasy. I think fellow Taoist is already close to twenty years old, so even if you are about thirty years old, you need to successfully build a foundation."

"Thirty years only requires more than a thousand spiritual stones. The Marrow Cleansing Pill requires two thousand spiritual stones."

Lin Yi sighed: "Just an ordinary meal."

Now that he is troubled by erysipelas, he must take the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Naturally, he is not afraid of the impurities in mortal food.

The shopkeeper stopped trying to persuade Lin Yi: "Haha, now that fellow Taoist has made up his mind, I won't say any more. All you have to do is find a seat and wait."

Lin Yi nodded and found a quiet place to sit down.

The hall was huge, and there were people in it in twos and threes eating food on the table, and no one was interested in Lin Yi.

Also, a young boy at the second level of Qi refining stage cannot attract attention.

Lin Yi came to his seat and took out the jade slip he bought from Cang Yuzi again to look at it.

It is mentioned in the jade slips that there are houses for rent in Luoyunxian City.

The price of that house is extremely high, requiring up to ten low-grade spiritual stones a year.

It sounds cheaper than this inn, but no one will provide food in that house, and it only starts after five years.

In other words, if you want to rent a house, you will need fifty spiritual stones at one time.

Lin Yi's whole body now only has three spiritual stones. Where can he rent a house?

After eating, Lin Yi did not go to practice, but followed the records on the map and came to a large square.

This square is called Shengxian Square. It is said that when the seven major sects came to recruit disciples, they took place here.

Lin Yi wanted to join the seven major sects. In today's world of immortality, the concentration of spiritual energy is no longer as good as in ancient times. Except for monks with Tianlinggen, it is very difficult for monks with ordinary spiritual roots to build a foundation on their own and require the help of external forces.

Building a foundation is a truly otherworldly and transcendent existence, separated from the mortal body. The external force required is naturally extraordinary. Unless one has great luck and great luck, building a foundation by oneself alone is a fantasy.

The simplest and most direct way is to take the Foundation Establishment Pill, and now only the seven major sects can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. Therefore, joining the seven major sects is the easiest way to build a foundation.

Now, twenty-five years have passed since the last Immortal Ascension Conference, and the next Immortal Ascension Conference is still five years away.

Lin Yi calculated that he would be twenty-three in five years. If he waited for the next Immortal Ascension Conference, his age would reach fifty-three.

Before the age of fifty is the golden age for foundation building.

If you build the foundation after you are over fifty, unless you have a great opportunity, your life will be stuck in the foundation-building period.

Moreover, after the age of fifty, the body's functions begin to slowly degenerate, and the difficulty of building the foundation also begins to increase.

It is said that even in the seven major sects, the foundation-building pills are not available to everyone, and you need to fight for them yourself.

In this way, if Lin Yi does not participate in the Ascension Conference in five years, it is very likely that he will stay in this Qi Refining Stage for the rest of his life.

Lin Yi clenched his fists. He must participate in the Ascension Conference in five years.

But those who participate in the Ascension Conference are basically in the late Qi Refining Stage, which is the seventh level, and some have even reached the perfect level.

Lin Yi is only in the second level of Qi Refining Stage now. If he wants to compete for the opportunity to join the seven major sects, he must improve his strength to the late Qi Refining Stage within five years.

This is nothing short of a fantasy. It has been more than four years since Lin Yi started practicing, and he has only reached the second level of Qi Refining Stage today.

"This road to immortality is really difficult." Lin Yi sighed and turned his gaze to the huge Ascension Square.

Now that the Ascension Conference has not yet begun, this place is occupied by a large number of cultivators, setting up stalls to sell things.

Luoyun Immortal City is close to the Luoyun Mountains. A large number of cultivators go to the mountains to explore. They don't want to be undervalued in those shops, so they bring the things they get from the exploration here to trade.

Lin Yi came here, in addition to taking a look at the appearance of the Ascension Square, he also wanted to come here to check if there was anything useful to him.
