Chapter 137 Thirty-six Transformations of the Golden Elixir

The next day, Li Xiuchang brought Su Qingchun to visit Zhao Yuansi.

The location was in Zhao Yuansi's study.

Li Xiuchang released Su Qingchun from the Rainbow Soul Banner.

When Su Qingchun saw Zhao Yuansi, he was as excited as a little fan who saw his idol. He saluted respectfully, which made Li Xiuchang look strange. Where is your pride?

So your toughness depends on people?

Zhao Yuansi waved his hand and said, "Mr. Su, don't be polite. After listening to Xiuchang's story about you, I feel that you are a fellow traveler. This time I invited you to discuss and exchange ideas."

Su Qingchun thought that such a talented person was so humble, and he was impressed. He said, "I dare not say that I can discuss and exchange ideas. I just hope that you can give me some advice."

Zhao Yuansi was often flattered by others. There were many people who called him immortal, respected him as an elder, and called him a master, but this was the first time he was called "Mr.", which made him feel very comfortable.

Zhao Yuansi took the initiative to open the topic. As people who both love Confucian culture and are eager to practice Confucianism but have not been able to do so, they still have a lot of common topics.

And Zhao Yuansi has studied Confucian culture for hundreds of years after all. As long as he is not allowed to write poems, he will not be a fool who can be seen through at a glance.

The two chatted very well, from the origin of Confucianism to the decline of Confucianism.

Among them, Zhao Yuansi, as a cultivator who has lived for hundreds of years and an elder of the Xianchen Sect, has a high status and knows many inside stories that Su Qingchun has no chance to touch.

Su Qingchun is far ahead of Zhao Yuansi in cultural level and literary literacy. The two exchanged what they have and felt that they have learned a lot from each other and benefited a lot.

In addition, Su Qingchun's attitude was very humble, as if he regarded Zhao Yuansi as a teacher and treated him with discipleship.

This greatly satisfied Zhao Yuansi's vanity, as if he was wearing a high hat of "cultured person". After studying Confucian culture for so many years, he was finally recognized.

If Li Xiuchang had praised him so much, it would not have been so powerful. The key is that Su Qingchun is a scholar who is well-read in poetry and books. The recognition from "insiders" makes people feel more accomplished.

Li Xiuchang was listening on the side and could not interrupt at all.

At the beginning, when talking about the origin and decline of Confucianism and Taoism, Li Xiuchang was still somewhat interested.

Especially when Zhao Yuansi said that the decline of Confucianism and Taoism was not because Confucianism was not strong, nor because there were few people practicing Confucianism and Taoism, but because it was broken from the root!

In fact, the inheritance of Confucianism and Taoism has not been broken. Even if you look for the method of Confucianism now, you may still find it. The key is that it is all useless and cannot be practiced.

In short, there is a problem with the path of Confucianism, and it is impossible to practice, resulting in all Confucianism inheritance becoming waste paper.

Unlike Buddhism and Taoism, although there are also problems that lead to decline, the method of Buddhist cultivation can at least be practiced.

Li Xiuchang knew as soon as he heard it that there must be a big secret in it, and his curiosity was aroused.

But who knew that Zhao Yuansi only heard what others said, and he also knew the result but not the reason.

Li Xiuchang's curiosity was not satisfied, and he felt bored and began to daydream.

He was thinking that Senior Brother Gui might know the reason why Confucianism and Taoism were cut off. If he asked Senior Brother Gui about it next time he saw him... that would definitely kill Senior Brother Gui, right?

Zhao Yuansi saw that Li Xiuchang was absent-minded, and took the initiative to say: "Xiuchang, if you have something to do, go and do it first. It's okay for Mr. Su to stay with me for a while."

Li Xiuchang was stunned. Is this okay?

Zhao Yuansi pointed to the books on the walls behind him and said to Su Qingchun: "Mr. Su can read the books here at will, as long as they are not damaged."

Li Xiuchang saw that it would take Su Qingchun a long time to read these books.

Moreover, most of these books were authentic works of great Confucian scholars collected by Zhao Yuansi, which would also be good for Su Qingchun's practice.

He had no reason not to let Su Qingchun stay, so he sent a few words of advice to Su Qingchun, asking him not to mention the poems he copied in front of Zhao Yuansi, and then said goodbye and left.

Su Qingchun was confused. He had always thought that those poems were written by Zhao Yuansi, and he didn't understand why he couldn't mention them in front of Zhao Yuansi.

But he still obeyed Li Xiuchang's instructions.

...

Li Xiuchang has recently started to think about the matter of forming a pill.

Although his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building has not yet reached perfection, it is only an inch away from perfection.

But as long as he doesn't add this inch a day, he will be far away from the perfection of foundation building.

Therefore, it is not too late to prepare for the formation of the pill now.

"The golden pill is divided into nine grades, one turn is one grade, and the magic power is nine turns, and only then can the highest nine-turn golden pill be achieved!"

According to the knowledge that Li Xiuchang has learned recently, the process of forming a golden pill is simply divided into two steps.

The first is to solidify the liquid magic power in the body, and cultivate solid magic power through continuous compression and condensation.

Affected by the nature of each person's skills and physical constitution, the solid mana cultivated has different forms. Some cultivate powdered mana, some are granular, and some are mana crystals...

Li Xiuchang has actually done this step in advance.

After the mana separation of the second Dantian centrifuge and multiple replacements, his mana is now all solid, a mixture of black powder and flakes.

The second step is to gather the solid mana in the Dantian and compress it again through the Danjie method until a qualitative change occurs, the mana is integrated, connecting the heaven and the earth, and condensing into a pill.

At this point, the pill is completed!

But if it is just like this, it is only a prototype of a golden pill.

If you stop at this step, you will become a so-called fake pill cultivator, and your path will be cut off from then on.

The fake elixir cultivators are between the foundation building and the golden elixir, also known as the half-step golden elixir. In fact, they are in an awkward situation, unable to reach the golden elixir and unable to integrate into the foundation building.

Compared with the real golden elixir cultivators, their combat power is far behind, and they have less potential than the foundation building cultivators.

Therefore, after the elixir is formed, it is necessary to mobilize the remaining mana in the body to operate the "Nine Turns Golden Elixir Method" in the elixir formation method to amplify the newly formed golden elixir prototype and improve the quality of the golden elixir.

The main difficulty is that most people find it very difficult to form a golden elixir prototype, and they almost exhaust their whole body mana to do it. Where is the remaining mana to operate the Nine Turns Golden Elixir Method?

At this time, the total amount of mana, the quality of mana, and the speed of absorbing spiritual energy of the cultivators will be tested.

If the total amount of mana is large and the quality of mana is high, it is easy to form a golden elixir prototype, so that there will be more remaining mana to operate the Nine Turns Golden Elixir Method.

The speed of absorbing spiritual energy is fast. During the process of forming the prototype of the golden elixir and operating the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir Method, a large amount of spiritual energy can be continuously absorbed from the outside world to replenish mana.

Only when there is enough mana can the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir Method be operated to a high level and a high-quality golden elixir can be formed.

It should be noted that during the entire process of forming the elixir, it is not reliable to swallow pills to replenish mana.

Relying on the mana restored by the pill, there is no time to refine the impurities of the medicinal power in the mana during the process of forming the elixir. If it is used rashly to form the elixir or strengthen the golden elixir, it will make the quality of the golden elixir impure, which will reduce the quality of the elixir at the least, and the golden elixir will collapse and directly lead to the failure of forming the elixir!

The only external object that can be relied on is the "magnetic elemental pill" that can be taken before forming the elixir to assist in forming the elixir, so that the mana will attract each other and it will be easier to condense into a pill.

After understanding the entire process and principle of forming the elixir, Li Xiuchang was full of confidence and felt that it was not difficult for him.

He didn't even need to rely on the magnetic elemental pill at all. With his mana reserves and mana quality, there was no reason why he couldn't form the golden elixir.

As for the nine-turn strengthening stage after the elixir is condensed, he can have a large amount of mana supply by increasing the length, not to mention that he has a second dantian for storage, so he is not afraid of insufficient mana.

Nine turns?

That is only the limit of the golden elixir strengthening, not his limit.

Li Xiuchang even thinks that nine turns are too few, he wishes there were ninety turns.

He even wondered if there was a better way to improve the quality of the golden elixir than the "Nine Turns Golden Elixir Method"?

Originally, he just thought so, but he didn't expect that when he searched on the preaching list, he found that there really was one!

"The ancient method of forming the elixir "Thirty-six Changes of the Golden Elixir", since this method was created, only the creator of this method has successfully practiced it?"

"Then I will be the second one!"
