Chapter 31: The Mystery of the Pill, the Foundation is Finally Completed

"You are a talented person, what a pity. You were destined to die since you entered this cave."

There was a hint of regret in Wei Zhong's words. The spiritual power in his hand condensed and turned into a spiritual water bullet that penetrated Liu Di's head.

There was still a hint of disbelief on his face. His lips moved slightly, and he wanted to ask something, but his eyes lost their luster in an instant, and he didn't say a word in the end.

Wei Zhong put away the three storage bags with a flick of his sleeves, and then a fireball shot out from his hand, burning the bodies of the three people, and the remaining ashes were scattered in the spiritual field.

In Wei Zhong's opinion, Liu Di is a character.

As a disciple of Qingmu Sect, he was neither arrogant nor impatient, and was very practical. At the critical moment, he knew to give up his two "colleagues" in order to please Wei Zhong, who was in the foundation-building stage.

It’s a pity that no matter how sensible he is, it’s impossible for him to survive after knowing Wei Zhong’s secret.

Wei Zhong had no means to restrict this person, and even if he did, he would not let go of someone who knew many of his secrets.

There are so many different spells in the world of cultivation that even the methods of controlling other people's bodies and minds may be unexpectedly cracked by masters.

To sum up, I'd better ask Brother Liu to die, so that I can continue to practice with peace of mind.

After cleaning up the battlefield, he casually hung the storage bag on the wall of the courtyard. Wei Zhong might not really look down on the three Qi-refining masters at the moment.

And there are more important things at the moment. I still need to experience the mystery of foundation building during the period of time maintained by the Tao of Time, so as to lay a solid foundation for formal foundation building.

In the training room, Wei Zhong sat cross-legged, looking at the liquid spiritual power in his hands and fell into deep thought.

The "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" that I practiced is a spiritual practice method, which naturally builds the foundation for spiritual power.

Compared with the cultivators who practice Qi Refining, the biggest characteristic of the cultivators who practice spiritual power foundation building is that the gaseous spiritual power in the body is condensed into liquid. This is also one of the reasons why the magic power of foundation building is stronger than that of Qi Refining.

Liquid spiritual power flows throughout the body, tempering the flesh and greatly increasing the strength of the foundation-building body. Although it is not as good as the foundation-building physical cultivation that specializes in physical cultivation, it is much stronger than the ordinary Qi-refining spiritual cultivation.

More importantly, the cultivator's spiritual consciousness transforms into divine consciousness, and from then on he can look within himself.

At this moment, Wei Zhong could see the bright light in his sea of consciousness, the "Record of Time".

He controlled his spiritual sense to explore it, but was unable to touch it.

"Isn't it enough to build a foundation?"

But at least we were able to discover its existence, which is a kind of progress.

The spiritual consciousness can not only look inwards at oneself, but also look outwards at the surroundings. At this moment, Wei Zhong's spiritual consciousness can clearly see the big gold playing in the pool.

As for the external projection distance, it was more than thirty feet. Compared with the previous spiritual consciousness, the experience was much better.

Although the spiritual consciousness of the Qi Refining cultivator can sense the outside world, it is not as clear as the divine consciousness, but it is close to the metaphysical perception of Qi. And the distance is not far, only two or three feet. Not only is it easy to find loopholes, but it can also be misled by others.

Although the new method does not require breaking through the three barriers of spiritual power, physical strength, and spiritual soul like the ancient method, it also improves the foundation of physical strength and spiritual soul while breaking through the spiritual power barrier.

Temper the physical body and spiritual consciousness so that it does not lag behind spiritual power.

It seems that Wei Zhong also understood why the foundation-building pill used the three medicinal herbs of 'Jade Marrow Ganoderma', 'Golden Ginseng' and 'Thousand Knot Flower' as the main ingredients.

The 'Jadeite Ganoderma', which has the highest age requirement, represents spiritual power, while the next best 'Golden Essence Ginseng' and 'Thousand Knot Flower' correspond to the physical body and soul.

Make up for the shortcomings of the physical body and soul in Qi training and spiritual cultivation, help to increase the spiritual power of the cultivators, and build the foundation of spiritual power.

So, if we find three foundation-building spiritual objects corresponding to spiritual power, physical strength, and soul respectively, can we achieve the same effect as the foundation-building pill?

Probably not, otherwise the cultivation world would not regard the Foundation Establishment Pill as the number one foundation-building treasure.

Wei Zhong had no idea of the specific reason, so he gave up trying to find out and continued to study himself.

Before I knew it, an hour had passed.

All the power dissipated from Wei Zhong's body, and he returned to the state of perfect Qi Refining. Wei Zhong instantly felt a sense of loss. Soon, this loss turned into a firm look. This trip must be a foundation-building one.

Wei Zhong closed his eyes and recalled his past and present lives. The events of his life reappeared in his mind.

From learning to speak, to growing up, from being ignorant, to learning and working.

There are also cross-rebirth, killing evil disciples...
Decades of practice reappeared in his mind one by one.

Wei Zhong felt that his mind was becoming clearer and clearer, and when he opened his eyes, they shone with light.

"In this world, I only seek immortality!"

Without hesitation, while his energy and spirit were at their peak, Wei Zhong took out the jade bottle containing the Foundation Establishment Pill and swallowed the middle-grade Foundation Establishment Pill into his stomach.

With the belief in immortality, Wei Zhong began to practice the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art". The spiritual energy in the training room was attracted by Wei Zhong and penetrated into his body.

From the outside, it looked like a small cyclone of spiritual energy was rising above the courtyard.

The medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill exploded in Wei Zhong's body, not only bringing in a large amount of spiritual power, but also splitting it into two forces that traveled through his body and spiritual consciousness.

Wei Zhong could clearly feel that his physique was improving and his soul was being strengthened.

The strengthening of this foundation-building pill actually made Wei Zhong feel a little refreshed.

It is worthy of being a foundation-building pill. It easily makes up for the deficiencies of my body and soul.

But the joy only lasted for a moment, and was followed by severe pain.

The surging spiritual energy was guided by the magic spell and penetrated every pore of Wei Zhong's body from the surface into his body.

"Pain, pain that goes straight to the top of my soul."

Wei Zhong could hardly even sit cross-legged, his body shaking like a sieve.

But Wei Zhong knew that he had to endure it. If he interrupted the foundation building at this moment, he would surely end up seriously injured, leaving his foundation damaged. He didn't know when he would be able to build his foundation again.

Try to empty your mind, maintain the practice of the technique, guide, refine, and inject the vast spiritual energy into your Dantian.

As time went on, quantitative changes eventually led to qualitative changes. The accumulation of gaseous spiritual power produced black cloud-like mist-like spiritual power, and then these spiritual powers continued to overlap and accumulate, eventually turning into a drop of light black spiritual power droplet.

The first drop of liquid spiritual power was successfully condensed, and an ugly smile appeared on the corner of Wei Zhong's mouth.

With the first drop, there will be the second drop, and more liquid spiritual power will continue to condense like a natural process.

I don't know how much time had passed, but the spiritual energy cyclone outside the courtyard had dissipated, and the spiritual energy in the training room was no longer rolling.

Wei Zhong sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his face expressionless.

However, his mind had already sunk into his dantian, where a small black puddle was suspended, emitting a rich spiritual light.

As soon as the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" was activated, the small puddle immediately turned into a stream of spiritual energy, flowing through the whole body.

"Foundation building is done!"

Wei Zhong opened his eyes, a look of joy on his face showing that he had accomplished something.

The foundation of the immortal path was finally achieved, and from then on he was no longer different from ordinary people and those who practiced Qigong.

When entering the secular world, one can be called an immortal and become an ancestor, and worshipping one's ancestors can help one live a long and healthy life.

The next step is to find a territory for Wei Zhong. It is impossible for him to join a sect, as a casual cultivator just needs to stay alive forever.
