With Qingyang's operation exercises, a large amount of spiritual power entered his body from the spirit stones, and then entered the meridians of the whole body, and after being refined, it was converted into true yuan and stored in Qingyang's dantian.

The method of refining the elixir is similar to using the spirit stone, but the spiritual power in the spirit stone is purer, and the refining is more convenient and faster, and there are not too many impurities that need to be cleaned and discharged from the body, so the efficiency of cultivation is more than a little higher than that of the elixir.

Of course, so much spiritual power poured into the meridians of the whole body at the same time, and it was also a huge test for the ability to withstand the Qingyang meridians, just like a large amount of flood suddenly pouring into the ditch, it was okay to be able to withstand it, but if it couldn't withstand it, there would be a danger of breaking the embankment and bursting.

Fortunately, Qingyang's time to break through the Jindan realm is not short, the meridians are not so fragile, and he has experienced this situation many times before, and he has a lot of experience, and he has a certain psychological preparation for the pressure and pain that the meridians have to bear, so he will not be in a hurry.

The spiritual power in the spirit stone continued to pour into the body, and the cultivation in the dantian was also growing slowly, Qingyang could clearly feel that the speed of this growth was much faster than the speed of taking the refining pill, and the speed of strength improvement was almost two or three times faster.

After more than twenty days, all the spiritual power in the spirit stones was used up, and all the spirit stones that were originally laid on the ground turned into a pile of useless powder.

If it was before, there would not be much change at all in just over twenty days of cultivation, if there was no pill as an aid, just by absorbing spiritual power from the outside world, more than twenty days would not be able to feel the slightest improvement in cultivation, but Qingyang used spirit stones to improve cultivation, then the change was more obvious, these twenty days or so can almost catch up with the cultivation effect of others in a year, at this rate, Jindan Monk to improve one level of cultivation, almost three or four years is enough.

Qingyang just had a thought in his heart, and quickly ran this matter to the back of his mind, trying not to be distracted when cultivating. After the spirit stone was paved, Qingyang re-operated the exercises, introduced the spiritual power in the spirit stone into his body, and refined it into his own cultivation.

After that, the situation was like this, every time he laid thousands of spirit stones on the ground, it could support his cultivation for more than 20 days, and when the spiritual power in the spirit stones was exhausted, Qingyang would clean up the original abandoned spirit stones, replace them with a batch of spirit stones, and continue to meditate and cultivate.

Cultivation is an extremely boring thing, but fortunately, in Qingyang's decades of cultivation career, he has long adapted to such a life, and the location of the cave mansion he built is relatively remote, and no one usually comes to disturb him, so he can cultivate quietly, and three years have passed unconsciously.

In three years, Qingyang has replaced the spirit stones at least forty times, each time it needs thousands of pieces, and the 300,000 spirit stones given to him by the one-horned ghost king have all been used up, and Qingyang's cultivation has also been improved to the peak of the second layer of Jindan, and it is only one step away from breaking through the third-layer realm of Jindan.

Without waiting for Qingyang to get up and get out of the customs, the one-horned ghost king sent someone to send him another 300,000 spirit stones, it turned out that one and a half percent of the taxes of the seven overlords of the fallen ghost abyss in the past three years had just been sent to Qingbi Mountain, I don't know how the one-horned ghost king was doing, and this side just continued the consumption of Qingyang spirit stones.

300,000 spirit stones are just enough to consume for three years, and they can be continuously supplied to Qingbi Mountain, if this is the case in the future, I am afraid that I will no longer have to worry about spirit stones in this life, not to mention the late stage of Jindan, even if it is the Yuanying realm, it is not far away, no wonder the seven overlords of the fallen ghost abyss are all the cultivation of the ninth layer of Jindan, such good cultivation conditions, it is too easy to improve strength.

Since the spirit stones were all sent, Qingyang didn't go out again, and continued to retreat and cultivate in his temporary cave mansion, just like the previous procedure, every time he laid thousands of spirit stones around him according to a certain law, and then ran the exercises to guide the spiritual power inside to refine and absorb.

Before, Qingyang's cultivation had reached the peak of the second layer of Jindan, so this time it only took half a year for him to upgrade his cultivation to the third layer of Jindan, and after that, he did not stop at all, continued to retreat and cultivate, and consumed the 300,000 spirit stones sent this time in one go.

At this time, he had been in retreat and cultivating for six years, and his cultivation had been promoted to the level of the third layer of the Jindan Realm, judging by the cultivation speed during this time, at most half a year to a year, his cultivation would be able to rise to the peak of the third layer of the Jindan, and the rest would be to break through the bottleneck of the third to fourth layers.

The one-horned ghost king seems to have a special understanding of the situation here, the spirit stones on Qingyang's body have just been used up, and 300,000 spirit stones have been sent over again, plus this time, the one-horned ghost king has already given Qingyang a full 900,000 spirit stones, so many spirit stones are difficult for the Yuanying monk to take out at one time, even if it is a powerful immortal cultivator, it will be heartbroken to give so many spirit stones to others at one time.

But the one-horned ghost king gave it to Qingyang casually, without the slightest reluctance, as if this spirit stone was not his at all, but after thinking about it, it was indeed not his, it was all accepted by the seven overlords of the fallen ghost abyss to honor him, and the one-horned ghost king had a very high status before, as the former lord of the Ten Kings Palace and one hall, it is estimated that he would not take these spirit stones in his eyes.

However, the one-horned ghost king is so generous, so Qingyang is very moved, when he met the one-horned ghost king, he has just stepped into the world of cultivating immortals, he is more ignorant of many things, and he saved the other party in a daze, Qingyang actually did not make much effort, and saving the one-horned ghost king is just a gesture, but the harvest is great, several times Qingyang encountered problems, and he was looking for the one-horned ghost king to come out to help, and this time he continued to provide himself with spirit stones, which can be described as a huge return.

Qingyang knew that the reason why the one-horned ghost king did this was not only to thank him for saving his life, but also because the two had been together for decades, and the relationship was extraordinary, and the relationship between the two could be said to be both teachers and friends, and the one-horned ghost king even took care of him as a junior.

This time he got the spirit stone, Qingyang still didn't get out of the customs, and continued to use the spirit stone to cultivate in his temporary cave, replacing the spirit stone every more than twenty days, consuming thousands of spirit stones each time, and Qingyang's cultivation was also improving at a speed that could be felt.

This time, it only took a year, Qingyang raised his cultivation to the peak of the third layer of Jindan, but at this time, he encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation, and his cultivation has been stuck on the threshold of the early stage of Jindan and the middle stage of Jindan, and it took more than half a year without any progress, and he has never been able to break through to the middle stage of Jindan, but he has wasted a lot of spirit stones.
