Chapter 27: Bottlenecks
The first talisman Li Muran saw was a very famous flying talisman, usually known as the rune paper crane.
When the paper crane is excited, it can turn into a paper crane the size of a zhang, flying in mid-air, and the degree is also very fast.
When the Talisman Crane's vitality is almost exhausted, it cannot continue to use Flight, but as long as there is a Vitality Charm to replenish the vitality, it can continue to use it. A high-quality paper crane can be reused hundreds of times.
Li Muran said secretly: "This rune paper crane, let alone one hundred and fifty spirit stones in the market, this monk steals and cultivates, and he is really worth a lot of money." ”
The rune paper crane is easy to use, and it can be manipulated with just a little mana, and Li Muran can also use it now, but with his cultivation and qualifications, using such an expensive talisman is really a bit shocking, with Li Muran's low-key and cautious style, it is naturally hidden and will not be used lightly.
In addition to this rune paper crane, several other runes are all Yuan Qi runes, which are obviously prepared for the rune paper crane to replenish the vitality.
Li Muran looked at one of the vitality talismans intently, and he couldn't put it down.
This Yuan Qi Talisman, the rune on it has a word, a seal and a spell, and there is also a Qi Gathering Dou Wen, which is a two-star Yuan Qi rune.
The vitality contained in the two-star Yuan Qi Talisman is almost ten times that of the one-star Yuan Qi Talisman, and its price is also ten times that of the one-star Yuan Qi Talisman.
"It's a pity that my current mana is not deep enough to draw a two-star Yuan Qi talisman. This two-star Yuan Qi talisman should have been drawn by a senior brother in the middle or late stage of the Qi vein of this sect. Li Muran sighed lightly and put away these talismans one by one.
Li Muran cleaned up these messy items one by one, most of them were used by Buddhist disciples, Li Muran couldn't use them at all, and it was not easy to resell them, he planned to find a time to destroy them all.
In addition, there were only two bottles of pills, a few magic weapons, a few exercise books, and a bunch of spirit stones.
Those two bottles of pills are both marrow cleansing pills, which are quite valuable pills, and they are not available at any time. This marrow cleansing pill not only contains extremely sufficient vitality, far better than the poly yuan pill, but also has the miraculous effect of washing the marrow and changing the tendons, it is said that regular use can improve the physique, discharge impurities, for the qi vein period monks to open up the meridians has great benefits.
It's a pity that Li Muran's cultivation is still shallow now, and when he has at least the middle stage of Qi and vein cultivation, he can truly refine the medicinal properties of the Purifying Pill, and taking it now is not only wasteful, but also the meridians are unbearable.
Li Muran calculated, there were as many as two or three hundred spirit stones, most of which were low-level spirit stones that he commonly used, and there were three spirit stones, which were the size of a fist, and the color was more transparent, and even glowed with a faint glow, and the vitality contained was even more amazing, far exceeding that of ordinary low-level spirit stones.
"These three are mid-tier spirit stones. Li Muran said happily, a middle-grade spirit stone is worth equivalent to a hundred low-grade spirit stones, and these three middle-grade spirit stones are a huge amount of money in themselves.
With so many gains, spending the Flame Burst Talisman with a total value of nearly two hundred spirit stones can be regarded as "worth the money". Of course, if Li Muran could not predict the prophet, he would rather not have been to the Three Hidden Springs tonight.
"If you don't have a spirit stone, you can earn it slowly by making talismans diligently; if you don't have a life, that qiē is all empty words! Those people are stealing and cultivating, even if they succeed countless times, as long as they miss once, they will be wasted!"
"The Book of Thieves" finally said that the purpose of stealing and cultivating is not to kill people and seize treasures, but to improve one's own cultivation. That's a true statement. ”
After cleaning up, Li Muran took out a stack of vitality talismans, preparing to replenish the vajra talisman that saved his life.
The process of replenishing vitality with the vitality talisman is also very simple, Li Muran put the one-star vitality talisman and the vajra talisman face to face together, and then played a mana to unlock the seal of the two talismans.
Immediately, the vitality slowly flowed into the vajra talisman from the one-star vitality talisman on its own, and after about a quarter of the incense injection time, the vitality of the one-star vitality talisman was completely lost, and the talisman also turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared, except for a slight replenishment of the vajra talisman, there was no other change.
Li Muran took out the second Yuan Qi talisman and concocted it in the same way.
It took a lot of time to replenish the vitality of this vajra talisman after using twenty one-star vitality talismans in a row. If you use two two-star vitality talismans to replenish the vitality, the effect is basically the same, and the time will be much less.
In the following period, Li Muran never left Zixia Peak for a single step. He secretly inquired about the news, and did not hear any rumors related to that night, so he gradually became relieved.
However, Li Muran's next cultivation was not smooth, although he had the help of Juyuan Dan, his progress was still extremely slow, and he even stopped moving forward for several days.
Zixiaguan's senior brother Qingfengzi is quite kind, Li Muran asked him about this, and the latter was startled when he heard this.
"Senior Brother Qingfeng, what's wrong?" Li Muran hurriedly asked.
Qingfengzi looked Li Muran up and down and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that the progress of your cultivation is a little unexpected to me." ”
"Oh, please give me detailed advice!" Li Muran listened carefully.
Qing Fengzi coughed lightly and said: "Taking the right pill to meditate and refine, but there is not much effect, there are generally two possibilities in this situation, one is that you have taken the pill too many times, the pill is always one of the external skills of cultivation, from the outside to the inside, although it is fast, but there are some drawbacks; ”
Li Muran nodded again and again, what Qingfengzi said, he also saw it in the classics, but he was not sure that he belonged to that situation.
"The bottleneck of the exercises, senior brother is saying that my cultivation has reached the peak state of the early stage of the qi vein?" Li Muran was surprised and delighted.
"It's indeed possible!" Qing Fengzi said: "It's rare for a cultivator like Senior Brother to cultivate to the peak of the early stage of the Qi Vein in more than a year, and among the disciples in the same batch as you, there are only three or five people at most who can reach this kind of cultivation level, which can be regarded as a very talented cultivation talent! Senior Brother should make good use of the opportunity!"
"Yes, thank you for your advice!" Li Muran thanked him.
Li Muran has seen the information about the bottleneck of the exercise in the classics many times, and every exercise book will repeatedly mention this matter, and give various methods that may break the bottleneck.
Li Muran knew that the so-called bottleneck of the exercises meant that when the cultivation of the exercises reached a certain level, the body, divine thoughts, and mana had reached the limit of a certain level, hindering the slow progress of cultivation. If you want to improve again, you must break through the bottleneck and achieve a qualitative change, so that you can continue to practice. So generally speaking, bottlenecks often appear before qualitative changes, that is, before the ascension of various realms.
The bottleneck that Li Muran is encountering now is that he has already cultivated to the peak of the early stage of the Qi Vein, and then the next step is to reach the middle stage of the Qi Vein cultivation. But if he can't break through this step one day, he won't be able to make any further progress in his cultivation, and his mana won't become deeper.
There are many ways to break through the bottleneck mentioned in the classics, but there is one thing in common, that is, it is necessary to follow the fate and not force it.
That night, Li Muran turned the last page of "The Book of Thieves" and sighed a lot:
"The immortal cultivation realm in this book and the immortal cultivation realm in other books are simply two worlds! I don't know who the person who wrote this "Thief Sutra" is sacred!"
The Night Concealment Technique and the Moon Eclipse Technique, he had already cultivated Xiaocheng, and every word in the book was firmly remembered in his mind.
Li Muran closed the "Theft of the Scriptures", rubbed his palms lightly, and a mana turned into a flame and burst out of his palm, instantly burning the book into a wisp of green smoke.
"It's time to go out and practice!" Li Muran said to himself. Anyway, the task of breaking the mortal dust will have to be carried out sooner or later, so it is better to complete this task in advance while your exercises are at a bottleneck.
Li Muran explained his intentions to Qingfengzi, who also agreed with Li Muran's idea and gave him a token to allow him to leave the sect for a while.
Subsequently, Li Muran came to the foreign affairs room and met a fat senior brother in the middle of the qi vein, and he made his intentions clear.
The other party didn't even look at Li Muran, just pointed outward, and said impatiently: "It's all in the outer hall, just pick one yourself!"
Li Muran was not angry, said yes with a smile, and walked to the outer hall.
It is said to be an outer hall, but in fact it is just a large courtyard of the governor's room, and there are many ragged people of all colors kneeling in the courtyard, including men, women, and children, no less than 100 people.
These people were originally numb, but after Li Muran appeared, they "woke up" one after another like an electric shock, crying loudly or begging, each more excited than the other.
"Senior Brother Wang, these are all mortals who have asked for help from this sect, why do they all have to kneel?" Li Muran frowned, and asked a guard monk standing at the entrance of the courtyard, this guard happened to be the same batch of disciples as Li Muran, and he was quite familiar.
The disciple surnamed Wang said: "What is this! These mortals, whether they are rich or poor, must first kneel in the wind and sun in the Valley of Seeking Immortals for more than 9981 days and have reasonable demands before they are qualified to enter here and continue to wait. Senior Brother Zhao can ask them about their demands and then pick one. ”
Speaking of this, the disciple surnamed Wang whispered to Li Muran: "There is a widow who can't speak in the corner, and she is mute. She was killed by her entire family because she sued the bureaucrats for encroaching on the fields, and she was also poisoned and dumb. Her appeal is the simplest, just revenge. Killing a few mortal scum would be as easy as it would be for us and others! If Senior Brother Zhao chooses this task, he is afraid that he will be able to complete it in two or three days. ”
Li Muran nodded: "Thank you Senior Brother Wang for your advice." ”
Li Muran stepped into the courtyard and was about to say something to these mortals who kept bowing and begging him, when suddenly in the noisy environment, he heard the hoarse voice of an old man:
"Nameless, nameless, is that you? I'm Daddy Guo!"
