Chapter 1132: The Difficulty of Cultivation

Looking at the grapes on the shelf, Qingyang was also content, this thing is a rare treasure, when he first arrived in Jiuxian City, Qingyang just ate most of the bunches, and his cultivation successfully reached the level of foundation building, improved by half a small realm, and saved five or six years of time, which shows how much help this grape has for the monks to improve their cultivation.

Now that Qingyang has become a Jindan monk, the effect of grapes is estimated to be not as great as before, but it is still possible to save seven or eight years of penance with a bunch of grapes, if it takes forty or fifty years for other Jindan monks to upgrade to a level of cultivation, then Qingyang only needs five or six bunches of grapes.

Of course, this is not possible, first of all, the yield of grapes is not so large, it takes an average of three years to ripen a bunch, and there are not so many grapes for him to eat. In addition, this kind of thing that helps to improve cultivation can be used to assist cultivation, but you can't pin all your hopes on it, without the usual accumulation and tempering, relying only on external objects to improve your cultivation, sooner or later there will be a day when it will be burst.

Qingyang once talked to Yu Mengmiao about cultivation, according to Yu Mengmiao, the meridians of the Jindan monk have grown, although the speed of absorbing the aura is faster than that of the foundation building monk, but the energy required is also more, so it takes longer for the Jindan monk to improve the first-level cultivation.

In the absence of external assistance, if there is no cave with sufficient spiritual energy, then it will take almost fifty years for ordinary Jindan monks to upgrade to the first level of cultivation, and the lifespan of Jindan monks is only four hundred years, and those who can break through Jindan are generally more than 100 years old, and the remaining 200 years are not enough at all, which is also the reason why many poor cultivators cannot reach the late stage of Jindan in their lifetime.

If you wait to cultivate in a place with sufficient spiritual energy for a long time, such as the Cave Heaven Blessed Land or the spiritual veins that have arranged the Spirit Gathering Array, this cultivation speed will increase, but the improvement is also limited, and it can save about one-third to one-half of the time, and there may be the possibility of cultivating to the late stage of Jindan.

Another way is the elixir assisted, the most commonly used elixir for Jindan monks to improve their cultivation is Juyuan Dan, when he was in Wantong Pavilion, Qingyang often refined, and often took Juyuan Dan to assist in cultivation, which can greatly increase the cultivation speed, and can even shorten the time to improve the first-level cultivation from fifty years to ten years.

But this also has a flaw, that is, the pill is too expensive, one Juyuan Pill is worth a hundred spirit stones, and to upgrade the level of cultivation, it takes almost a few hundred Juyuan Pills, and it is okay to take some occasionally, if you take it regularly, no one can afford it. Even if a few people can afford it, there is not such a large supply on the market, and it is useless to have spirit stones alone that cannot be bought.

Of course, there is also a way to improve cultivation, that is, to directly use spirit stones, the speed of this cultivation is the fastest, but the defects are also greater, mainly because the conversion rate of spirit stones is too low, the energy is wasted too much, and the efficiency is several times lower than that of pills, no one dares to be so extravagant.

Therefore, the monks of the major sects often use all the conditions comprehensively, find a cave with sufficient spiritual energy in the sect, arrange a spiritual gathering array outside to speed up the gathering of spiritual energy, and when there are conditions, they will get some pills to assist, and if they can't get the pills, and they are anxious to improve their cultivation, they will use some spirit stones extravagantly, so that they can maximize their own resources.

Qingyang has a lot of things, and it is impossible to stay in one place for a long time, so the conditions for using the Spirit Vein Cave Mansion are not suitable for him, but fortunately, his Dan skills are outstanding, and he can refine the Juyuan Pill by himself, and the success rate is very high, without the shortage of pills, he can increase his cultivation speed to the fastest.

Of course, it takes a lot of spirit stones to buy materials, but Qingyang is a senior Dan King, and the success rate of refining Juyuan Dan is much higher than that of ordinary Dan King, the same material, part of the refined Dan is sold to continue to buy materials, and the rest can be used by yourself, but in this case, alchemy will waste a lot of time, and the key depends on how Qingyang balances.

As for those grapes, Qingyang didn't plan to eat them all, the use of pills has already greatly improved the cultivation speed, if the grapes are also used to improve cultivation, Qingyang is worried that his strength will improve too quickly, which will cause the foundation to be unstable, and in the end it will be as troublesome as this breakthrough Jindan.

He is ready to use a part of it himself, and then give a part to the iron arm spirit monkey and the wine bee, and the rest is used to make wine, after adding grapes, the quality of the spirit wine has increased greatly, and the effect of the grapes can be maximized. Even if you can't drink that much spirit wine for the time being, it's always good to have more.

Unconsciously, he thought a little too much, and when he came to the bottom of the grape trellis, Qingyang finally saw Yu Mengmiao, the situation was urgent, Shi Ruyu had already launched an attack on him, Qingyang was afraid of hurting Yu Mengmiao, so he didn't have time to think, so he directly sent Yu Mengmiao into the drunken immortal gourd with his divine thoughts, and he didn't even have time to take a look at the drunken immortal gourd.

I haven't seen her for a year, and Yu Mengmiao is still exactly the same as when Qingyang sent her to the drunken immortal gourd before, with white hair, wrinkles on her face, and a withered description, like an eighty or ninety-year-old woman, lying quietly on the ground. And she has no breath now, her body is cold, as if she has died a long time ago, but if you feel it carefully, there seems to be a trace of vitality in the depths of her body, like a candle in the wind, a lonely boat in the waves, and it seems that it may be extinguished and capsized at any time.

Qingyang sat quietly beside Yu Mengmiao, looking at her blankly, remembering the bits and pieces of the past, she was innocent when she first met, she grew up quickly after the accident, she made a vow at a young age in Liangzhou City, and she had grown into a beautiful woman when she saw her again, she cried with joy when she met again in the Chaos Demon Valley, and she gave everything she had when she met her again in the Shocking Wind Mountain, and after a few decades of separation, she still remembered herself.

I thought that this time I would meet a lover and eventually become a family, who knew that the world was impermanent, in order to repay her kindness, she actually took the wedding dress pill and gave all her cultivation to herself, such a kind woman, but to face such a desperate situation, such a good woman, but to suffer such a tribulation.

Suddenly, tears slipped down Qingyang's face, and for a while, countless feelings filled his heart, moved, touched Yu Mengmiao was so affectionate to himself, heartache, heartache Yu Mengmiao now does not know life and death, there is pity, pity Yu Mengmiao does not deserve to suffer so much, and there are also thoughts, only a short year has passed, Qingyang feels like half a life apart.

Of course, there is also remorse, regret for why I didn't notice the abnormality in the first place. If time can be turned back, Qingyang will definitely find a way to stop Yu Mengmiao, even if he doesn't marry in this life, he must stop Yu Mengmiao from doing stupid things.
