Chapter 49: Twelfth Level of Qi Training

Not to mention other people, Yun Shang herself was also very happy. Although she have no problem buying it herself, no one will refuse free things come to your door.

After that, the competition ended, then she followed Qingmu Daojun to Yunhai Peak.

"Tomorrow you will enter Enlightenment Tower, master just advice you to follow the fate in matter of twelfth level of qi training, and if you can't, don't be too obsessed with it."

"Yes, Master"

When Yun Shang come back to her cave, she entered the space.

In the space

Yun Shang was looking at various spiritual herbs.

However now Yun Shang's focus was on the spiritual spring water inside the space.

Lotus flowers were blooming in the pond, and more than 30 plants had grown. The oldest one was over 6,000 years old. The lotus flower had five petals, shining in red, yellow, blue, gold, and green.

This lotus has the attributes of the five elements.

It's a pity that although there are many lotuses with unique attributes, including wind attributes, thunder attributes, ice attributes, single five-element attributes, and even one with pure yang and extreme yin attributes, there is no fairy lotus.

This lotus seed was picked from the fairy lotus, but it did not evolve into a fairy lotus containing fairy energy.

Yun Shang carefully picked the five-element lotus and removed the lotus pod and stem, leaving only the lotus. As for the lotus pod and stem, they were also treasures and were collected by Yun Shang.

After doing all this, Yun Shang slept, and after waking up, she began to adjust her condition of energy and spirit until reached its peak.

...

The next day

Yun Shang and group of ten people stood still in the Enlightenment Tower, waiting for the tower to open.

A moment later, the guardian elder of the Enlightenment Tower flew into the air, threw eighty-one top-grade spirit stones around the Enlightenment Tower, quickly made a seal with both hands, and shouted "Open".

In an instant, the door of the Tower of Enlightenment slowly opened.

"Now you can go in one by one. Remember, if you get anything, just crush the jade token in your hand and you will be teleported out," the guardian elder instructed.

After several people agreed, they entered the Enlightenment Tower one by one.

"Who do you think will succeed in building the foundation first this time?" In the hall next to the Tower of Enlightenment, there were a dozen True Lords sitting.

"It should be Qingmu Daojun's little disciple." Master Yuan Yi spoke first. He was most optimistic about Yun Shang.

"Not necessarily, the guy named Gu is not bad either," Xiushui Zhenjun disagreed.

"And what about Master Mo Huai's grandson?" Master Lan Yi enjoyed watching the fun.

Mo Huai Zhenjun said modestly, "How can Xuan'er compare to them? He is far behind!"

"Hypocrisy!" Master Lan Yi rolled his eyes at him.

Seeing this, Master Mo Huai was not angry and still smiled.

The Tower of Enlightenment

After the group came in, they each chose a room and went in.

As soon as Yun Shang sat down, she released her suppressed cultivation, and spiritual power rushed into her meridians frantically. Yun Shang quickly circulated the spiritual power, one cycle, two cycles, in an endless cycle.

One hour, two hours, one day later, Yun Shang still hadn't touched the barrier. How could it be? With her spiritual power, she could have established the foundation long ago!

After calming herself down, Yun Shang started over again, guiding her spiritual energy to flow again and again.

Another day passed like this, and it still didn't work. Yun Shang was a little annoyed!

What went wrong? Yun Shang quit the practice and thought carefully about her steps.

Over and over again, she recalled it tirelessly in her mind. Suddenly, Yun Shang's clear eyes began to become deep and dark, like a thousand-year-old pond.

Yun Shang only felt that she was in a vast white environment. The world was silent and still. It seemed that she was the only one in the world, but not really, and it seemed as if there were others.

She walked forward aimlessly, not knowing what she was looking for. But there was always a voice in her heart telling her that the answer she wanted was ahead.

She walked for a year, two years...or it seemed like only a moment, she didn't know.

Finally, a distant voice sounded in my ears, "What are you looking for?"

"I don't know." Yun Shang heard her own voice.

"Don't know? All living things in the universe, the Great Dao exists forever. You practice Taoism and seek immortality, but you don't even know what you are pursuing."

Yun Shang suddenly realized, yes, what she had been pursuing was not the great way of immortality? She had been walking on this heaven-defying path, but she didn't even know what she was pursuing. How ridiculous, how ridiculous!

Yun Shang heard herself laugh in relief as she suddenly realized the truth.

Yun Shang then entered enlightenment.

When she was out of state enlightenment, she feels she hit the barrier, without thinking too much, she immediately entered her space.

Yun Shang then began to prepare for a breakthrough.

In Dantian, as Yun Shang urged her spiritual power, the speed of the spiritual energy cyclone increased suddenly. The spiritual power, which was already full, suddenly changed at this time.

The spiritual power that was pure and rich to the extreme had already turned into mist, and under Yun Shang's squeezing, it quickly formed a drop of liquid.

Aura turns into liquid!

This is the first step in building the foundation.

As the spiritual energy in the Dantian turned into liquid, the originally abundant spiritual power became dry. The five-colored cyclone continued to rotate and began to frantically absorb the spiritual energy from the surroundings.

Buzz!

In the space, a whirlwind quickly rolled up. In the whirlwind, the spiritual energy from all around rushed into Yun Shang frantically, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

It's fortunate Yun Shang has foresight to breakthrough in her space, otherwise everything will be troublesome.

...

In the Dantian.

The five-colored cyclone quickly devoured the surging spiritual energy from all around.

This step was extremely smooth.

The spiritual energy in the space is of great help to cultivators in breaking through the foundation-building stage.

As the spiritual energy turns into liquid, the Dantian absorbs the spiritual energy at an increasingly faster speed.

Spiritual power also undergoes transformation.

The spirit, energy and vitality slowly blend into it.

Spiritual power slowly turned into magic power, which was the first step of the foundation-building period. After the spiritual power turned into magic power, Yun Shang activated the magic power cyclone and prepared to open up the Dantian Qi Sea.

This is the second step in the foundation-building period, opening up the Dantian Qi Sea.

Humans are born with spiritual roots, but most humans' spiritual roots are not very strong. A small number even have extremely weak spiritual root potential points, making them unable to cultivate, so they can only be mortals. However, even mortals have Dantian.

Dantian is a gift from human beings.

But the Qi Sea is different.

The path of cultivation has been created for who knows how many years, and every step has a role.

The Dantian Qi Sea is the first step in cultivation.

How this step is taken will have a profound impact on future cultivation.

Simply put, the deeper the foundation, the easier it will be to practice in the future.

Therefore, opening up the Dantian Qi Sea is, to a certain extent, another basis for judging a cultivator's talent and cultivation.

When one first starts practicing, spiritual root potential and special physique are the most important talents. However, as one continues practicing, due to differences in techniques, degree of hard work, elixirs, methods of refining the spirit and soul, spiritual materials for advancing to the foundation-building stage, etc., the sea of qi opened up will also be different when one advances to the foundation-building stage.

Like most cultivators in Shenwu Continent, they have reached the ninth level of Qi training and rely on foundation-building pills to build their foundation.

These foundation-building people have no concept of the size of their Qi Sea. Most of their Qi Seas are three or four hundred feet, and seven or eight hundred feet is a minority. Only some of them who have cultivated to the tenth level of Qi training and refined spiritual materials to advance to the foundation-building stage can have a Qi Sea close to a thousand feet.

This kind of qi sea is one of the best.

But the best one is this kind of qi sea.

After advancing to the eleventh level of Qi training and condensing the spirit and soul, the spiritual power in the Dantian and the essence of the body will increase again, and will increase again when opening up the Dantian Qi sea.

It is rumored that after the perfect Qi Sea is opened up, it is three thousand feet long, and when advancing to the Golden Elixir stage, one can condense the ninth-grade Golden Elixir.

However, even for a cultivator who has perfected the eleventh level of Qi training, the Qi sea she has opened up is usually more than two thousand feet.

The perfect Qi Sea is just a legend.

Yun Shang was preparing to make a concerted effort to open up her Dantian Qi Sea.

But at this moment, an accident happened.

The spiritual power in Yun Shang's Dantian, the essence of the body, and the power of the soul suddenly transformed within the Dantian and then merged into one.

At this moment, something wonderful happened.

The essence, energy and spirit merge and flow into each other, forming a mysterious force.

This power intensifies spiritual strength, purifies the body, and integrates the soul.

In an instant, a profound understanding appeared in Yun Shang's mind.

At the same time, the runes that Yun Shang had comprehended before began to flash one by one in the Dantian. Among them, the runes with the five elements were the most important, shining brightly in the Dantian, and then out of nowhere the runes of yin and yang, finally the runes with the three attributes of wind, thunder, and ice derived from five elements, also appeared in the soul.

After many runes appeared, the magic power that had just been formed was actually consumed rapidly.

The vortex of mana continued to rotate, madly devouring the surrounding spiritual energy.

...

Inside the space.

The changes are still continuing.

When the runes of the five elements, yin and yang, wind, thunder and ice emerged, they continued to merge and intertwine, and more runes were derived. During this process, Yun Shang's mind and soul were in chaos.

It seems... I have understood something without realizing it.

At the same time, the body, spiritual power, and soul are all surrounded by various runes.

Normally, when one's cultivation level breaks through, one's talent will change a little bit. The most common change is the change in the potential points of the spiritual roots. However, Yun Shang's change this time is even greater.

Countless runes evolved and merged into the body.

The body underwent inexplicable changes and began to absorb spiritual energy.

The magic power in Dantian is also integrated into the runes, and the properties of spiritual power also change.

This is even more true for the soul. Many runes are integrated into the soul and begin to transform.

Yun Shang was undergoing a transformation while she was still in a daze.

The spirit, energy and vitality have completely changed.
