Volume 1 Uncle Nine's World Chapter 121: Nine-Turn Pill
Watching Chizuru leave, Simu felt a little confused for a moment, mostly out of worry about Chizuru's future.
The last dynasty was in decline and disasters abounded. Now Qianhe's fate is tied up with this last dynasty. Even if he escapes this time, no one knows what disaster will happen next time. Danger is inevitable. How can Simu, as his senior brother, feel at ease?
Jiale also noticed Simu's worry and immediately comforted him.
"Master, as the saying goes, those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future. My uncle has devoted himself to the Dragon's fortune for more than ten years, and now is the time when his fortune is booming, so he has suffered this great disaster. Once this disaster is over, it will be a time for harvest. Although there will be more disasters in the future, in the short term, we should be able to enjoy peace. I read a fortune for my uncle before, and it was a sign of good fortune in the face of adversity.
Besides, I have also left a sound transmission note for my uncle. If anything happens, he will notify us. We can help him then, so it won’t be a big deal.”
After hearing Jiale's words, Simu felt relieved and nodded immediately.
"It's all thanks to you this time. That bronze-armored corpse is extremely ferocious. If it weren't for you, it would have been really difficult to deal with."
Jia Le quickly shook his head, "Even if I'm not here, Master can handle it. I know Master's abilities."
After that, Jiale did not run around anymore, but focused on practicing in the yard. With Jingjing's presence, there was no lack of laughter in the yard. Moreover, Jingjing had a good talent for cooking. Under Jiale's training, she had already become a master. Jiale no longer had to worry about cooking for the four people in the two yards, as Jingjing could handle it all.
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
In the courtyard, Jia Le stood up after finishing his practice. A breath of misty energy flowed between his chest and abdomen, wandering freely between heaven and earth, repeating this cycle over and over again, and finally returning to the origin.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and a divine light flashed.
Simu watched Jiale practicing from a distance and nodded involuntarily. The Qi Refining Stage is the process of combining spirit and Qi. Now Jiale has reached the last step of this stage and has almost completed 99% of the journey. The only thing left is the last step to completely unify his spirit, energy and soul and transform them into a golden elixir, which is the so-called Spirit Transformation Stage.
"The peak of Qi Refining Realm!"
Jia Le's eyes gleamed, and he was very excited. For two months, Jia Le had been consolidating his foundation while absorbing energy beads to practice. He finally pushed his cultivation to the peak of the Qi Refining Realm. With one more step, he would be able to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However, the price is naturally not small. Among the many energy beads in the unknown space, now there is only one lonely one left.
It was the Peony Flower General's incarnation-level energy bead, and some of it was left for Jiale.
"Jia Le, your cultivation has now surpassed that of your master. However, as for how to break through the Spiritual Transformation Realm, your master only knows a few words. At that time, your master only taught the method to your eldest and second senior brothers. We can only ask the two senior brothers for advice after we break through the peak of the Qi Refining Realm. Now, your master has nothing to teach you.
During this time, you can consolidate your cultivation and go to your uncle again. Senior Brother Lin treats you like a close disciple and will not hide anything from you."
Jiale had the same idea and nodded immediately.
Three days later, Jiale set off again for Renjia Town.
When Uncle Jiu saw Jiale again, he was also shocked. Even though he had already gotten used to how fast Jiale's cultivation was improving, he still couldn't accept it. Jiale had caught up with him in just a few years. But after all, he was his nephew, so he was still very happy.
"Cultivation is to seize the fortune of heaven and earth, to refine essence, transform qi, and practice qi. In fact, it is to refine the three treasures of human beings - essence, qi and spirit, so that they can be sublimated in order to transcend the mortal world and become immortal. Therefore, in the cultivation world, these three realms are also called the foundation-building realm. This foundation is the immortal foundation. If you want to become an immortal, you can't ask for it if the immortal foundation is unstable.
Only when one breaks through the Spiritual Transformation Realm does a cultivator experience the most important transformation in his practice.
Essence, energy and spirit return to their origin and become one, without any outside.
This is the golden elixir.
At this time, the cultivator's cultivation and magic power have a support and are placed in the golden elixir. As long as the golden elixir is not destroyed, the soul will not die, and the life will not end.
As the saying goes, once I swallow a golden elixir, my life is in my own hands, that's it.
However, this golden elixir is also very particular. There is a saying that it can be transformed into an elixir through nine turns, and it is also a further refinement of the essence, energy and spirit.
The more elixirs you make, the stronger your golden elixir foundation will be, and you will have more opportunities to break through to new realms in the future.
Legend has it that in ancient times, our Maoshan founder was unwilling to break through to the God Transformation Realm unless he was sure of achieving the seventh level of the Return of the Elixir. However, with the end of the world, it is difficult to even get a chance to break through to the God Transformation Realm, let alone achieving the seventh level of the Return of the Elixir. If one can break through to the God Transformation Realm, who would care how many times the Return of the Elixir has been achieved?
At the Transformation Spirit Realm, the lifespan is 500 years. Even if one cannot make any further progress and enter the underworld, one can still obtain the seventh-grade Yin God, and one’s life of cultivation will not be in vain.
However, you are gifted with extraordinary talents, so you should have lofty ambitions, scale the peaks bravely, and try to pursue the glory of your ancestors.
After the third transformation of the elixir, one's lifetime achievement is limited. It is impossible to go any further. Moreover, the quality of the elixir is limited, and the purity of the magic power is not high. Among those in the same Spirit Transformation Realm, the third transformation of the elixir is considered the weakest among them.
Only after the third transformation of the elixir is achieved can there be a possibility of breaking through to the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void, so you should not be in a hurry to break through, try to lay a solid foundation. Even if you cannot achieve the seventh transformation of the elixir, you must achieve the fifth or even the sixth transformation of the elixir for future consideration.
However, the practice of a cultivator is to fight for life against heaven and go against the will of heaven. It is not a big deal in the beginning, but when one reaches the stage of transformation, disaster will occur.
To break through the Spirit Transformation Realm and complete the Nine Transformations of the Elixir, there will be three disasters, namely the disasters of heaven, earth and man.
To begin to break through the Spirit Transformation Realm, one must first overcome the tribulation of wind and fire. This tribulation of wind and fire is yin wind and yin fire, which corresponds to the earth number of heaven, earth and man. Both yin wind and yin fire are bone-corroding and soul-destroying. If one cannot overcome it, at best one's foundation will be severely damaged, making it difficult to break through again, at worst one may die. However, once one breaks through, one can officially return the elixir. Whether it is the first or third turn of the elixir depends on your accumulation.
If you are lucky, you can complete the third transformation of the elixir. If you want to go further, you have to continue to overcome the tribulation.
The second calamity is the heavenly thunder calamity, which corresponds to the three calamities of heaven, earth and man. When it strikes, there are twenty-seven thunders, each stronger than the last. This calamity is both a disaster and a blessing. If you can overcome it, all your sins will be eliminated, your Tao body will be initially formed, and your immortal foundation will be forged, laying a solid foundation for breaking through to a higher level in the future.
After overcoming the heavenly thunder tribulation , one can achieve the fourth level of elixir. If the foundation is sufficient, the sixth level of elixir can be achieved without any problem.
But if you want to go one step further, you have to overcome the third calamity, which is the human calamity among the three calamities of heaven, earth and man, also known as the calamity of the inner demon.
As the saying goes, the only thing in the world that is difficult to overcome is the human heart. For cultivators, this calamity of the inner demon is more terrifying than the calamity of heaven and earth. No matter how strong your cultivation is, if your will is a little weak, you will sink into it. After your soul is exhausted, if you still cannot escape, your cultivation will be destroyed, and your body will die. This calamity of the inner demon varies from person to person and is difficult to guess. If you can really reach this step, whether you want to continue to overcome the calamity and pursue the seventh turn of the elixir is up to you to consider.
It's just that many of our Maoshan's ancestors have fallen because of this inner demon calamity, so you have to be cautious when making a decision. You have great talent, but after all, you have practiced for fewer years, and your mental experience is inevitably insufficient. If you are going to overcome the inner demon calamity, I am really worried about it. Now I don't know whether I should hope that you can reach that step.
..."
Afterwards, Uncle Jiu told Jiale some details about the breakthrough, the most important of which were the Yin-Yang lineage of Maoshan and the experiences left by some ancestors when they broke through. These were the real heritage of Maoshan.
There is naturally a big difference between having preparation for a breakthrough and crossing the river by feeling the stones. With these things, Jiale is standing on the shoulders of giants to face the barrier of the Spirit Transformation Realm. With the accumulation of knowledge, his mood has become more and more stable. As long as he has figured out the way, Jiale will have some confidence in the future. After all, he is different from others because he has an unknown space.
At this moment, he actually had some ambitions to achieve the ninth level of the elixir.
"By the way, Jiale, you've come at the right time. There is a town a hundred miles away from Renjia Town called Jiuquan Town. This town is where I, your uncle, have stayed before. There are still many relatives in the town. I had planned to leave Renjia Town and go to Jiuquan Town to open a Taoist temple after relocating Master Ren's grave. However, Renjia Town suffered heavy losses at that time, and it was not easy for me to leave, so I stayed.
After a few rounds of discussion, the matter was shelved. However, a few days ago, a letter came from Jiuquan Town. It was sent by someone who was slightly older than me, saying that the winery was haunted and wanted me to help take a look. I also wanted to go back and take a look, so I agreed.
It’s not because of this relative. This relative has done all kinds of bad things and is a miser. Even if there is no ghost, he will not have a good end. The main reason is that there is a dusty church in Jiuquan Town, which is located on the three evil spirits. If it cannot be handled, there will be trouble. At that time, my Taoism was not yet at a low level, and I could not break it completely, so I sealed it temporarily.
Now the time has come, it's just right for us to go back and deal with it together. If you have nothing else to do, please come with me, Master."
Jiuquan Town!
Jia Le's heart moved when he heard this, and he nodded immediately.
"Okay, Master."
This time when Jiale came to Uncle Jiu's place, he was mainly here to ask about the details of breaking through the Spirit Transformation Realm. Now it has been completed. If there is nothing else, Jiale will go back in a few days. As for after he goes back, he will definitely practice hard and accumulate knowledge to increase his confidence for future breakthroughs. However, with the unknown space, the best preparation for Jiale's breakthrough is actually to exorcise demons and accumulate energy beads.
An energy bead of the Spiritual Transformation Realm was not enough for Jiale to break through. But now Uncle Jiu's words gave Jiale a surprise. Now the demons and monsters appeared.
Seeing Jiale agreed, Uncle Jiu did not delay. The next day, he arranged for Qiu Sheng and Wencai to guard the charity cemetery, and then took Jiale to Jiuquan Town.
With the black horse, a hundred miles is just the time it takes to eat a meal.
Jiuquan Town is under the jurisdiction of Anping County. It is the hometown of Uncle Jiu and his old lover Lian Mei. Many people in the town are related to Uncle Jiu. Of course, at Uncle Jiu's age, there are very few people who can be his elders. However, in a town that pays attention to clans, the seniority is sometimes really confusing. There are actually a few people who are older than Uncle Jiu.
The one who sent the letter asking Uncle Jiu to come back and catch ghosts was one of them, but Uncle Jiu obviously didn't take it that seriously. It was obvious that his main purpose of coming back this time was still the Three Evils.
Jiale knew the details and naturally understood what was going on.
However, Jiale didn't care about Uncle Zhao's character. But he had to get rid of the female ghost in the winery. From what he saw in the movie, her cultivation was quite strong. Maybe he could get a Qi transformation level or even Qi refining level energy bead from her.
After entering Jiuquan Town, Jiale felt the change in Feng Shui. The town had obviously been affected by the Three Evil Positions and the Feng Shui had changed.
It seems that Uncle Jiu's worry was right. After all, the town was only closed temporarily back then. Twenty years have passed. If he doesn't come back, I'm afraid the whole town will be destroyed by the influence of the three evil spirits.
"Fortunately, it seems we arrived in time."
Uncle Jiu sensed the changes in Feng Shui and nodded.
Uncle Jiu has his own ancestral home in Jiuquan Town, so Jiale doesn't need to work in an inn. However, he has been away for twenty years, and few people can recognize Uncle Jiu when he walks on the street.
The two of them headed towards Uncle Jiu's ancestral home. It turned out that Uncle Jiu's ancestral home was quite large.
Uncle Jiu has already solved the problem of where to live, so Jiale naturally cannot be ignorant. He has to take on the responsibility of cleaning. However, Jiale is now a cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, and it would be somewhat beneath his dignity if he had to do the cleaning work himself.
A set of talismans specially used for cleaning were activated, making the house spotless. Then dozens of paper figures were thrown out, and soon everything in the house was put in order.
Uncle Jiu was stunned when he saw Jia Le's actions.
"Jia Le, when did you learn this paper-folding technique?"
That’s right, Uncle Jiu didn’t know that Jiale knew paper-folding. It was okay for the talismans, although Uncle Jiu could draw them and use them, but wasting magic power on things like cleaning the ancestral home seemed a bit extravagant to Uncle Jiu. But for Jiale, it was nothing, after all, Jiale had the capital to waste, and he was happy and relaxed. But the paper-folding art was different, as none of their fellow disciples could do it.
"Uncle Master, I got this from an evil person before. Seeing that these paper figures are quite convenient for doing odd jobs, I made some. Oh, there is also a paper figure for the dead, which can save your life at a critical moment. I will give it to you later , and you can also take a look at it."
Uncle Jiu waved his hand when he heard this.
"Forget it. Actually, I have paper-binding techniques in Maoshan as well, and they are probably better than the ones you got. They are all unorthodox and a waste of energy for disciples. It won't harm you. When you return to Maoshan, if you are interested, you can go to the Sutra Library to have a look. This paper-binding technique has its merits. Since you have learned it, you might as well learn it completely."
Yes! Maoshan has it too!
After being surprised, Jiale expressed his understanding. Come to think of it, it was normal for our Maoshan to have such a thing. This was one of the largest sects in the cultivation world today. Let alone these unorthodox methods, even if Buddhist techniques appeared, Jiale would not be surprised.
However, after hearing what Uncle Jiu said, Jiale became really interested in the Maoshan Sutra Library. Perhaps he could really learn a lot of interesting techniques from it, and his Qimen Bagua might be even more perfect by then.
"Then I must go and see it after I break through."
