The Path to Immortality

Before the third level of Qi training, there seemed to be an invisible barrier that restricted the generation of more mana.

But this barrier was too fragile. After Fang Ping's repeated attacks, it was quietly broken after only more than ten cycles.

At that moment, a faint green light flashed on Fang Ping's body.

Even in the process of breaking through the barrier, Fang Ping could clearly feel that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly became active and accelerated into his body.

The running route of the Five Elements Sutra also showed subtle changes, opening up more meridians, and the efficiency of refining spiritual energy was slightly improved.

A quarter of an hour later.

Fang Ping's growing momentum gradually became stable.

The third level of Qi training!

When the original body joined the outer sect of Luoyang Sect, it was a few months away from five years, and finally reached this threshold without worrying about being expelled.

At the same time as the practice was completed, Fang Ping slowly opened his eyes and felt the mana in his body.

The breakthrough from the second level of Qi training to the third level is just a breakthrough in a small realm, and the mana does not increase much. But even so, it has increased the total by about a quarter.

Thanks to the increase in mana, the third-level Qi training cultivators can finally master the art of controlling objects.

From then on, they can use mana to control magic tools and attack enemies from a distance within a certain range, without having to hold magic weapons and chop at close range like secular warriors.

This spell is also the key for the middle-level Qi training cultivators to control flying magic tools, and it can be said to be a must-learn method for cultivators.

"I am finally one step closer to the middle-level Qi training and getting rid of the bottom of the cultivation world!"

Since it is a happy event, it should be celebrated.

In addition, after searching for the white-feathered spiritual crane, he has accumulated a batch of fasting pills during this period, which need to be sold, so it is a good time to go to Luoyunfang.

Having made up his mind, he left the outer disciples' courtyard in high spirits.

After reaching the third level of Qi training, even the effect of performing the light body technique has improved a bit.

Fang Ping, wearing a bamboo hat and dressed like a casual cultivator, arrived at Luoyunfang in one cup of tea less than usual.

Because he needed to collect alchemy materials and sell finished pills regularly, he had traveled between the sect and the market several times since he crossed over. In order to avoid being conspicuous and to guard against Lu Shan and Ming Yulou, he sometimes had to disguise himself.

As for why he didn't go to other markets?

First, Fang Ping's strength was still too weak, and it might be dangerous to leave the scope of Luoyang Sect.

Second, only in the middle stage of Qi training can one fly with a flying device, and only after building a foundation can one fly with one's own strength without relying on external objects. It takes too much time to travel by light body skills.

After entering the market skillfully, Fang Ping went straight to the [Chen Family Alchemy Shop].

This is a new shop opened last winter.

It is said that the Chen family, a family of immortal cultivators, had a talented alchemy apprentice and was ready to train him vigorously, so they specially organized such a shop. For this purpose, even the twenty mu of spiritual fields outside the market were mortgaged.

However, relying on an apprentice to refine pills alone is obviously not enough to support a shop.

Fang Ping saw the opportunity and took the initiative to come to the door to promote the Bigu Pills he refined.

At this time, after hundreds and thousands of furnaces of repeated refining, his success rate in refining Bigu Pills was no less than those senior apprentices of the alchemy, and the quality of Bigu Pills was also very good. He was even lucky enough to produce a fine pill with Danwen on the surface.

So, Chen's Alchemy Shop hit it off with him and reached a long-term supply relationship.

This long-term supply contract made Fang Ping much less worried.

Just by refining Bigu Pills, he made a small profit of spiritual stones.

Half of these spiritual stones were used by Fang Ping to speed up his cultivation. It was precisely because of these profits that he was able to complete the breakthrough so quickly.

This time, Fang Ping saved dozens of bottles of Bigu Pills and was ready to make another fortune.

"Is the shopkeeper here?"

Arriving in front of the Chen family's medicine shop, Fang Ping slightly pressed down his bamboo hat and walked in.

"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Xu Fei."

Recognizing Fang Ping, the middle-aged beautiful woman of the Chen family, whose cultivation level was similar to Fang Ping, hurried out to greet him.

Fang Ping had just broken through not long ago, and his aura was still unstable.

Experienced cultivators were not difficult to identify.

The middle-aged beautiful woman soon noticed the clues and congratulated him: "I haven't seen you for a while. I didn't expect that you actually broke through. It's really a happy event!"

Fang Ping nodded slightly: "I'm lucky to have made some progress."

This small breakthrough is not a major event in foundation building, so there is nothing to brag about.

He waved his hand, put out bottles of fasting pills from the storage bag, and said his intention: "This time I came here to sell fasting pills again."

"Still fasting pills?"

Seeing the bottles of pills, the middle-aged beautiful woman looked a little embarrassed.

But during this period of time, Fang Ping's cooperation with her family was quite good, and the quality of the fasting pills they supplied was always very high, and there had never been even a single defective one.

For this reason, after a brief hesitation, she nodded and asked her men to count the pills and prepare to buy them all at the price.

Seeing her expression, Fang Ping was a little puzzled: "Why, is your shop unwilling to continue cooperation?"

"That's not the case, fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand."

The middle-aged beautiful woman thought about it, and finally told the reason: "Although the fasting pills are in great demand, most casual cultivators only buy one bottle at most as a backup. They are reluctant to eat them during daily cultivation. Occasionally, they retreat or go out on adventures, and only eat one or two. There are more than one store selling pills in Luoyunfang. You have been supplying batches of them for several months, and the store actually has some backlogs..."

In short, the store is small and has few customers, resulting in oversupply!

Fang Ping's face looked a little strange. He didn't expect that this would be the reason.

It seems that it is not a good thing to refine a certain kind of elixir.

It just so happened that Fang Ping had been a little tired of refining the Bigu Pill recently. In addition, the profit margin of this thing was not high enough, so he had long thought of refining other elixirs.

He immediately took this opportunity to say: "In this case, I will try to refine some other elixirs in the next few months."

This made the middle-aged beauty who still had charm breathe a sigh of relief.

She smiled and said with her hands covering her mouth: "I wanted to remind you, but I was afraid that it would be a bit abrupt to speak rashly... Now you have this intention, it's great."

After counting the elixirs, Fang Ping got the spirit stones this time.

He did not rush to put them into the storage bag, but hesitated for a while and said: "Give me the materials for 100 Qi Hui Dan and 10 Yuan Ning Dan."

These two kinds of elixirs, plus the Bigu Pill, are the only three elixir recipes Fang Ping currently has.

The Qi-recovering Pill and the Bigu Pill are both low-grade basic elixirs, and the difficulty of refining is only slightly higher. After swallowing, it can speed up the recovery of mana.

When cultivators in the early and middle stages of Qi training fight, they can take one pill in advance, and the effect is quite good.

It is basically a must-have for low-level casual cultivators when they go out.

And the Condensing Yuan Pill is the pill that the Luoyang Sect’s outer sect gives to disciples twice a year to speed up their cultivation.

It is a medium-grade basic pill, and the difficulty of refining is much higher than Bigu Pill and Qi-recovering Pill, and the benefits are naturally higher.

Any apprentice of the alchemy path, as long as he can increase the success rate of refining the Condensing Yuan Pill to 30%, he will no longer have to worry about cultivation resources.

Ordinary small cultivator families will never mind paying a large sum of money to invite them as guest officials, or even marrying off the daughters of the clan who have the qualifications to practice to form a marriage, to show their attraction and respect!
