Chapter 37 Foundation Building
Xiao Yu looked at the fifteen Foundation Building Pills in front of him and could no longer control his excitement.
"Hey! With these pills, foundation building is just around the corner! Hahaha" Xiao Yu's silly laughter echoed in the underground fire room.
After calming down, Xiao Yu put away the elixirs and the elixir furnace, then got up and walked towards the stone door!
At the registration office of the Earth Fire Palace, a young man looked at the disheveled Xiao Yu in disbelief, opened his mouth and said:
"It turns out it's you, senior brother! I have been working here for many years, and I have never seen a disciple in the Qi refining stage spending such a long time refining elixirs in the earth fire chamber. I thought that you, senior brother, had an accident in there, and I almost died.
Reported to the sect steward. Senior brother looks so haggard, are you okay?"
"Oh, don't mention it. I didn't expect that refining alchemy would be so difficult. I exhausted all the raw materials but failed. I lost all my money and was so angry that my mouth blistered. I couldn't even bother to clean myself up.
Image." Xiao Yu pretended to be poor and complained.
When he was weak, pretending to be poor would prevent others from coveting him. Xiao Yu still understood this truth.
When the young man heard this, he showed a sympathetic expression, "My condolences, brother, but you still have to pay the fee. This is the sect's rule. If calculated based on time, you still need to pay eighteen spiritual stones."
"Here you go!" Xiao Yu threw a dozen spirit stones on the table with a look of displeasure, and then walked out of the Earth Fire Palace without looking back.
After returning to the medicine garden, Xiao Yu first rested for a day, then used the purple gourd to ripen the elixirs that he needed to hand over in the past six months, and then quietly waited for the steward to come to collect the elixirs.
More than ten days later, Xiao Yu sent away Manager Song who collected the elixir and returned to the hut.
The day has finally come. Xiao Yu waved his hand and patted the storage bag, and a jade bottle appeared out of thin air in his hand.
He opened the bottle cap and poured out a light blue pill the size of a broad bean. The pill exuded a pungent smell. This was the Foundation Building Pill that Xiao Yu had worked so hard to refine.
After holding it in his hand and looking at it for a while, he raised his head, swallowed it, and began to meditate.
At this time, Xiao Yu plans to build a foundation in this medicine garden. The spiritual energy here is relatively strong, which is a good place to break through bottlenecks.
After sending off the steward today, no one would bother him in the next three months, so he chose to attack the foundation here.
The power of the Foundation Establishment Pill took effect very quickly. After just two hours, Xiao Yu felt a fire starting to burn in his Dantian. However, other parts of his limbs were extremely cold, forming a very distinct ice fire.
The feeling of two heavens!
After a short while, the burning sensation in the Dantian suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the temperature of the limbs and other parts also returned to normal.
Just a moment later, a sharp pain suddenly came from the Dantian. It felt like seven or eight sharp knives stirring in the Dantian at the same time.
This made Xiao Yu's face look extremely pale, beads of sweat the size of soybeans kept falling down his chin, and his whole body was completely bent down!
After this process lasted for a while, the severe pain in the Dantian suddenly exploded into countless heat streams, which immediately spread throughout the body along the meridians, and even penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
Immediately afterwards, the heat immediately turned into an unbearable itching, as if there were countless ants crawling all over his body.
"Ah..." This unbearable itching feeling made Xiao Yu want to hit his head on the ground, so as to alleviate the pain a little!
This kind of torture almost drove Xiao Yu crazy. It lasted for a whole meal, and finally the itching gradually subsided.
Xiao Yu slowly sat up from the ground. At this time, he was sweating profusely. His whole body was covered with an inexplicable gray substance. When he touched it with his hand, he felt a sticky feeling and exuded an indescribable smell.
The unpleasant smell.
After closing his eyes and looking inside his body, Xiao Yu felt happy, because his basic skills had suddenly advanced to the thirteenth level, and his whole body was warm and there was no discomfort anywhere!
It was obvious that the Foundation Building Pill just now had improved his physique and allowed him to cleanse his marrow and strengthen his tendons.
As for the warmth on the body, it is due to the subsequent potency of the Foundation Establishment Pill not being fully absorbed.
Most people who take the Foundation Establishment Pill will stay in seclusion for several months to a year to refine the remaining medicinal power.
People with good qualifications or good luck will successfully build the foundation under the influence of this medicine. People with poor qualifications or bad luck can only use this medicine to improve their basic skills.
But Xiao Yu didn't want to go into seclusion for a year and wait for the medicine to take effect. He had fifteen foundation-building pills in his hand, so he didn't have to worry about the remaining medicine being wasted. He could just do it.
Therefore, he sat cross-legged and meditated to regain his energy and strength and prepare to take the next pill.
One day later, Xiao Yu, who felt that his energy and energy had returned to his best condition, took the second Foundation Building Pill.
…
Xiao Yu felt all the pain he had experienced before this time, but with the last experience, his ability to bear it was a little greater this time.
After the medicine took effect, Xiao Yu looked at the sticky, smelly gray substance covering his whole body and thought:
"The ability of the Foundation Establishment Pill to cleanse the marrow of the Yi Ching should be the most important. Only by improving the physical constitution can the subsequent Foundation Establishment proceed smoothly!"
At this time, his cultivation was still at the peak of the thirteenth level, but the mana in his Dantian was showing signs of liquefying.
After another day of meditation to restore physical strength and energy, Xiao Yu looked inside his Dantian and found that the signs of mana liquefaction were very slow. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find it. If you wait for it to slowly liquefy, how long will it take?
So, he no longer hesitated, took out another Foundation Establishment Pill, opened his mouth and swallowed it.
Perhaps because there were fewer impurities in the body, the pain this time was not as intense as last time.
After the pain, the first drops of liquefied mana finally began to appear in the Dantian.
Immediately afterwards, the subsequent gaseous mana was gradually converted into liquid state, but the speed was very slow and it seemed that there was insufficient stamina.

As the elixir was refined, the liquefaction speed of mana suddenly accelerated, which shocked Xiao Yu. He did not dare to relax at all, and focused his attention on the Dantian...
I saw that the liquefied mana in the center of the Dantian formed a clockwise rotating vortex.
The vortex does not rotate very fast, but every time it rotates, some of the wisps of gaseous mana on the periphery will be absorbed into the vortex, eventually transforming into a liquid state and integrating with the vortex.
This process continued in an orderly manner. Seeing this scene, Xiao Yu was overjoyed. If he continued like this, he would be successful in a short time.
He quickly collected his emotions and concentrated on running the exercises over and over again to refine the power of the foundation-building elixir in his body.
…
Finally, ten days later, the last ray of gaseous mana in the body turned into liquid true energy.
"Buzzing", the surrounding air vibrated. With Xiao Yu as the center, a spiritual energy vortex formed around him, and traces of spiritual energy in the air poured into Xiao Yu's body crazily.
…
At this time, at the forbidden entrance of the medicine garden, two uninvited guests flew over with magical weapons. One of them was a rough mining man. It was the day Xiao Yu returned from the forbidden area. He wanted to snatch He who had the chore of taking care of the medicine garden.
Liang. The other person is a thin old man with a goatee.
After landing on the ground, He Liang spoke: "Uncle, that boy is in this medicine garden.
Taking care of this medicine garden is a real job. You can get a lot of spiritual stone rewards every year. More importantly, you can also intercept a lot of spiritual medicine and use it to make elixirs.
If my uncle can get this job for me, my nephew will dedicate a lot of the elixirs he gets every year to his uncle!"
"Well, Liang'er is interested. You don't have to worry. He's just a junior in the Qi refining stage. Since uncle is here, he has no choice but to obey!" The thin old man said slowly, stroking his goatee.
If he hadn't been learning alchemy recently and needed a lot of elixirs to practice his skills, he wouldn't have wanted to give the impression of bullying the lower-level disciples of the sect.
In fact, the temptation mentioned by his distant nephew was a bit too great, so as soon as he heard that there was a magical elixir available, he came with it.
The old man took out a red talisman, whispered to it a few times, and then hit it towards the ban. The talisman turned into a streak of fire and instantly disappeared into the ban.
