Chapter 78 Difficulties in Building a Foundation

This technique is called the ‘breath-hiding technique’.

A very plain name.

Practicing with the new power that combines the power of magic and the power of the ancient gods, it takes only a few dozen breaths to successfully practice.

This surprised Yang Che and made him very happy.

“Lei Yan, now the control of the body is in your hands. Let’s get rid of Liu Hanyan first and find her later.”

Yang Che has decided to temporarily get rid of Liu Hanyan’s pursuit, hide somewhere, and attack the Dantian Danhai in the middle dantian.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Nine-Hearted Thunder Flame immediately took Yang Che into the sky, with an amazing speed, which surprised Liu Hanyan again.

After being taken by Lei Yan to fly away quickly and out of Liu Hanyan’s sight, Yang Che immediately performed the ‘breath-hiding technique’ so that Liu Hanyan’s consciousness could no longer lock on.

There are a large number of densely populated islands in this sea area. After Yang Che got rid of Liu Hanyan’s consciousness, he immediately drilled into one of the densely vegetated islands.

He found a hidden half-collapsed stone cave, sat cross-legged and quickly drank another mouthful of the medicine prepared by the purple-haired girl.

A total of five mouthfuls of medicine.

The first mouthful, Yang Che used to temper his body and increase the power of the ancient god.

The second mouthful, Yang Che prepared to follow the purple-haired girl's instructions to impact the middle dantian at the heart position.

The medicine entered the body, and the burning pain of the fire swept through the body again.

Yang Che endured the severe pain and impacted the middle dantian according to the method described by the purple-haired girl.

After a long time, the dantian sea in the middle dantian was finally opened.

"What should I do next?"

Yang Che's mind transmitted to the purple-haired girl.

The purple-haired girl said: "Your cultivation is still too low. There are still three-fifths of the medicine left, which is enough for you to reach the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining. Next, you will focus on your cultivation."

"Okay."

The purple-haired girl's words were exactly what Yang Che wanted.

Yang Che immediately drank the third mouthful, and ran the "Purple Yuan Jue" with all his strength to start improving his cultivation.

Then the fourth mouthful...

Finally the fifth mouthful...

After seven days of refining and absorbing these medicinal liquids, Yang Che's cultivation reached the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining without any suspense.

Feeling the surging mana in his body, Yang Che had a feeling that if he faced Liu Hanyan again, he would definitely have the strength to fight head-on.

At this time, the purple-haired girl suddenly said: "This medicinal liquid has been neutralized by me, but its medicinal properties are still deeply rooted in your body. It seems that you have absorbed and refined it, but in fact a large part of it is just hidden. If you break through the foundation, for a long time in the future, relying on these hidden medicinal powers, your cultivation can still get a very big breakthrough."

Yang Che was also wondering in his heart. That was the inner pill of a level five demon beast. It couldn't just play this role, right?

After listening to the explanation of the purple-haired girl, he was relieved.

"Then can I start trying to build the foundation? I have two foundation-building pills in my hand." Yang Che said excitedly.

"What? You have two foundation-building pills?" The purple-haired girl's tone was a little strange.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Why didn't you say it earlier? You wasted part of the power of the inner pill of the fifth-level demon beast." The purple-haired girl said unhappily.

"Ah, this..." Yang Che was speechless.

The purple-haired girl said: "The power of a foundation-building pill is enough for you to reach the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining. Although the foundation-building pill is ordinary, it is at least a finished pill that contains a lot of medicinal essence that is just suitable for cultivators. But the liquid medicine I prepared is a lot of waste. After all, I am not a true alchemist."

"I see." Yang Che was also annoyed.

"But if part of the demon pill is wasted, it's wasted. You stabilize your cultivation, and we will go find Liu Hanyan again. This time, I must absorb her poison cultivation and start to help you build your foundation." The purple-haired girl said firmly.

Yang Che asked weakly, "Will these two foundation-building pills really not help me build my foundation?"

"You're dreaming. It's hard for ordinary cultivators to build their foundation with two foundation-building pills, let alone a special person like you who has mutated two immortal roots?" The purple-haired girl sneered.

"How many foundation-building pills do you need?" Yang Che asked.

"It's not a question of how many foundation-building pills you have. Even if there are a hundred foundation-building pills in front of you, it may not help you build your foundation successfully. Not to mention that if you take a lot of foundation-building pills, you will either burst or develop drug resistance, and no matter how many foundation-building pills you take, they will be useless."

Yang Che suddenly understood when he heard it.

It seems that his previous idea of ​​taking five pills if one pill doesn't work, and ten or even a hundred pills if five pills don't work was a bit simplistic.

The purple-haired girl was silent for a moment, and then she said in a very solemn tone: "Do you know why it is difficult to build a foundation with two mutant immortal roots?"

Yang Che was immediately interested when he heard it, and almost subconsciously asked: "Why?"

"Immortal roots essentially have only five elements. And different immortal roots are actually derived from the mutation of immortal roots with five elements. Immortal roots with five elements can mutate with one attribute, two attributes, three attributes, and even four or five attributes. This kind of mutation, even in the era of this king's cultivation, no cultivator can fully understand it."

Yang Che was shocked.

Then the purple-haired girl said: "More than 90% of the cultivators in the world have five-element immortal roots, and less than 10% have different immortal roots. And among these less than 10% of different immortal roots, almost all of them have a mutant immortal root. People like you who have two mutant immortal roots are rare."

Yang Che suddenly had an idea and asked: "Then are there people who have mutated three or even four immortal roots?"

"Of course there is. And every time one appears, it is enough to cause a sensation in the entire world of immortal cultivation. It's just that after there are more than two kinds of mutated immortal roots, they will be directly 'chosen' and protected by the rules of heaven and earth. They have no foundation building or pill formation. and Ningying’s bottleneck.”

"So magical? Doesn't it mean that a mutated double immortal root like mine is also a cultivator chosen by Heaven? I can easily build a foundation by just bathing in Heaven's grace?"

"That's right. In my era, the mutated twin immortal roots could easily build a foundation by bathing in Tian'en. Do you know what Tian'en is?"

"have no idea."

"Tian'en is the 'spiritual milk pool' created by heaven and earth. If you enter the spiritual milk pool to absorb the spiritual milk to the maximum, you can directly open up the middle dantian or even the upper dantian."

After hearing this, Yang Che thought for a while and suddenly said: "I understand a little bit. It means that any monk with two or more mutant immortal roots cannot build a foundation in the same Dantian."

"That's right. This is the difficulty of building the foundation of the Mutated Double Immortal Root. Even if you have one type of Five Elements Immortal Root and one type of mutated Immortal Root at the same time, you can successfully build the foundation with just one Dantian.

Only two mutated immortal roots cannot successfully build a foundation in the same Dantian. If the foundation is forcibly established, the two mutated immortal roots will inexplicably consume each other during the process of transforming the gaseous true essence into the liquid true essence, making the transformation process hundreds or thousands of times more difficult. "

"Then why does this kind of consumption occur?"

Yang Che thought for a while and finally asked the biggest question in his heart.
