Chapter 3 Tongmai Dan
【Qi Gathering Pills】
Quality: Not good
Introduction: It slightly increases the speed of Qi gathering cultivation, slightly reduces meridian damage, has a slight effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and has a certain nourishing effect on Qi and blood.
Enhancement required: 2 points
Lin Shan was staring at the prompt in front of him with excitement. He forgot about the trouble he had just made during the day and was completely replaced by excitement. His golden finger really did not leave him!
Then he began to think about the use of this panel.
Needless to say, the Qi Gathering Pills were distributed by his clan to outer courtyard disciples since he was 10 years old, and the effects were just as described here.
This pill itself is made from the essence and blood of ferocious beasts and various herbs. It helps martial artists to cultivate internal strength, nourish essence and blood, and increase the speed of gathering qi, among other auxiliary functions.
Because of different aptitudes, the strength of meridians of different people are naturally different. The transportation of qi and blood will constantly wash away the meridians. Some people cannot continue to practice for one hour. If they force themselves to practice, their meridians will be damaged. In the long run, hidden injuries will be left in the body in the future.
Therefore, everyone's daily cultivation time is limited, and with the help of elixirs, the efficiency and duration can be naturally improved. After all, elixirs require a lot of materials, and only large families can afford them.
Taking the huge Lin family as an example, the outer courtyard side branch disciples can receive 10 pills per month, while the inner courtyard direct line disciples can receive 30 pills. This is equivalent to taking drugs to practice every day. With the same qualifications, the practice speed is three times that of the outer courtyard disciples.
Moreover, as time goes by, the gap widens, and the side branches can never surpass the direct line. It is said that the children of some powerful elders treat this basic elixir as candy!
Therefore, generally speaking, before reaching adulthood at the age of 16, one-third of the inner courtyard disciples can enter the Qi-exchanging realm and become acquired masters, while there are very few in the outer courtyard who can't become warriors who can cultivate true Qi. Naturally, after reaching adulthood, they can only leave the family and continue to do odd jobs in the outside industries.
Of course, except for Lin Fan, the wall-hanger. After what happened tonight, Lin Shan no longer treated him as a human being.
"Reinforcement requires: 2 points? This thing can be enhanced?"
While looking at the pill in his hand and the transparent panel in front of him, Lin Shan stroked his chin and began to think.
It seems that the golden finger that he had received ten years late was like an "enhancement" plug-in that could enhance and improve the items in this world. However, there was no instruction manual on how to enhance the items and what they would become after enhancement, so he could only figure it out on his own.
According to the prompts on the panel, it seems that strengthening cannot be done out of thin air, but requires strengthening points.
It takes 2 points to strengthen the "Qi Gathering Pill", which should refer to the "ancient charm" absorbed from the ancient paintings during the day. Then he found a corresponding number "5" in the upper right corner of the panel.
"Could it be that the cheat has already arrived, but it was only today that I accidentally got the enhancement points and activated it?"
Lin Shan made a brief guess and concluded that the strengthening points needed to be obtained from the outside world, and the key to obtaining them was the "ancient charm" he had seen during the day.
But what is “ancient charm”? Since it happens to appear in a painting called “Spring River Playing with Mandarin Ducks”, could it be related to antiques?
Because there was too little information and he couldn't figure it out, he had to put it aside for the time being. He focused his attention on the "Qi Gathering Pill" in his hand, not knowing what this thing would become after being strengthened.
Why don't you try it first?
Lin Shan decided to experience first what unique abilities his golden finger had. Without much hesitation, he concentrated his mind on strengthening the panel and made up his mind.
"strengthen!"
A brilliant light flashed on the palm of his hand, and the thumb-sized pill that originally had a slightly scarlet smell "swished" away!
It turned into a round and smooth light red pill that exuded a faint fragrance. It was as big as a longan and had a faint halo on the top that could not be seen without careful observation.
The transparent interface in front of my eyes also changed, and a new introduction appeared before my eyes.
【Tongmai Dan】
Quality: Acquired
Introduction: There is a certain chance to assist in opening up the Tanzhong acupoint, opening up the Dantian, and gathering the essence and qi. It has a certain effect of nourishing qi and blood, a slight effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and a slight effect of washing the marrow.
Enhancement required: 4 points
……
"Good guy!"
Lin Shan stared at the enhancement panel in front of him with excitement without blinking, not for anything else, but for the two sentences in the introduction that said "there is a chance to open up the Tanzhong point and open up the Dantian".
If ordinary people want to cultivate true Qi, become real warriors, and have the ability to venture into the world of martial arts, the sign is to open up the Tan Zhong point and develop the Dantian.
“So, once a small Qi Gathering Pill is strengthened, it becomes a precious pill that can help an ordinary person break through and become a warrior!” Lin Shan’s hands trembled slightly as he held the light red pill the size of a longan. His throat was dry and he could hardly hold himself.
I have been practicing for almost ten years since I traveled through time. I have been moving qi and blood every day without fail, but I haven't even reached the door to the realm of warrior.
But if you have this pill, you will be qualified to try to reach the Breathing Realm ahead of time!
Now that he is about to have his coming-of-age ceremony at the age of 16, he will need strength to protect himself when he leaves the protection of his family and goes outside.
Lin Shan was overjoyed and discovered that this enhanced Tongmai Pill could be further enhanced by the enhancement panel.
"The original quality of the Qi Gathering Pill was not good enough, but after being strengthened, it became a post-natal elixir."
"Then what will it become after strengthening it again? Innate elixir?"
Lin Shan began to fantasize in his mind, what would happen if he took all the innate elixir in one breath?
However, it would take 4 points to strengthen the Tongmai Pill again, but there were only 3 points of "Ancient Charm" left on the strengthening panel, which was not enough to support his fantasy.
Forget it, let me break through my current realm first!
……
After quietly regulating his breath for a while, Lin Shan collected his mind and slowly entered a state of cultivation. As his breathing gradually became steady, the Qi and blood in his body circulated three times, and he felt that his whole body was in the best condition.
He swallowed the Tongmai Pill in one gulp, chewed it up and swallowed it. He slowly felt the heat flowing along with his blood and qi, becoming stronger and stronger.
The huge medicinal power was extremely gentle, spreading out step by step from his abdomen. Before he knew it, it seemed as if a ball of fire was burning. Wisps of white mist emerged from his ears and nose, and his whole face was faintly glowing red, as if he was in a blazing furnace.
Lin Shan practiced his Qi again and again, and finally felt that the Qi and blood had become strong to the limit and his meridians could no longer bear it.
Suddenly, he encouraged all his energy to rush to the Danzhong acupoint, like a mighty river flowing eastward! Then he broke through the barrier with unstoppable force and opened up the Dantian. The energy in his body was like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, and a vortex slowly condensed.
So angry!
Opening the middle dantian and cultivating true qi means becoming a post-natal warrior.
True Qi can temper the flesh, blood, tendons and bones externally, and regulate breathing and heal injuries internally. Traveling around the world like the wind can be said to have opened the door to cultivation.
Now that Lin Shan has entered the Qi Exchange Realm and cultivated true Qi, he can be considered a third-rate expert in the martial arts world!
Continue to practice to increase internal strength, and when it is refined to the extreme, you will be able to produce dark power. Then, train the internal organs and temper the body, which is the stage of training the internal organs.
When the dark power is fully developed, it can give rise to the transforming power, and the true energy can be given to the sword in the palm. Every move will be in harmony with heaven and earth, which is called the transforming power state.
After the perfection of the acquired nature, the Ren and Du meridians are opened up, and the upper and lower Dantians are opened up, which is the innate state. The true qi is released, flowers and leaves fly, and enemies are killed with a snap of the fingers, which is another realm.
……
Lin Shan didn't think too much about it. He first gathered the energy in his dantian to stabilize the new state, then slowly adjusted his breathing and practiced.
Two hours later, he felt his meridians becoming full, so he slowly stopped practicing. He opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he exhaled a breath of foul air.
“Although I’m still a long way behind Lin Fan, I have a cheat now. His chances are not much better than mine. I’ll always have a chance to catch up.”
The ordinariness of the ten years before the time travel had made him increasingly depressed, but after tonight he regained his confidence!
"Strengthen, ancient rhyme, how to find it?"
It was already five o'clock in the morning outside the window, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the shadows of the trees were swaying.
With thoughts in mind, Lin Shan fell into a deep sleep on his couch.
