Chapter 874 Divine Fetal Bottle
"That's right, Hong. This Dantian, from what I've seen, is as thin as celadon. It feels cold to the touch and is relatively perfect. Although there is some sand inside, the spiritual energy poured in like an hourglass, but it doesn't leak much. It can be considered as half an empty celadon bottle. Your bone age is fifteen, so it's appropriate to start refining qi."

On the high platform, the old Vietnamese woman moved her hand away from the dark-skinned boy's head. Maybe it was because of the light, but her white eyes lit up slightly.

She nodded slowly and praised.

While the old Yue woman was speaking, another Yue woman beside her was holding a scroll and taking notes with her head down. She seemed to have written down "empty celadon bottle" and "bone age fifteen".

The young men below seemed a little confused.

Senior Sister Yuan turned around and explained to Ouyang Rong and others who were queuing:

"Our sect is a secluded sect that follows the most traditional and simple theory of Qi refining talent, which can be traced back to the pre-Qin period. The Qi refining practitioners of the pre-Qin period believed that the Dantian in the human body is like a fetal bottle, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that is refined is the water in the bottle. Different fetal bottles can contain different effects of 'water', and therefore correspond to different root bone talents."

This cold-faced man seemed to have been introduced many times today. He spoke very quickly, but also said it very concisely and without omission:
"Some fetal bottles are of high quality, such as colored glaze treasure bottles, while some are of low quality, like coarse pottery and rusty tiles. The former can achieve twice the result with half the effort in refining Qi. The latter has many loopholes in refining Qi.

"To practice both at the same time is like using two bottles to draw water at the same time. The former will naturally contain more water, while the latter, by the time you draw the water back, most of the water has already leaked out...

"The latter will naturally be eliminated and will not be able to go up the mountain. However, there are still some detailed classifications of the specific levels of fetal bottles..."

The young people listened with great interest.

Ouyang Rong remained calm. He had heard his junior sister mention a similar theory of Qi Refining before, which came from the Confucian Academy, but it was not much different.

I remember that at that time, he had not yet taken the Transcendent Golden Pill. After the junior sister checked his Dantian physique, she said with regret that he had a leaky body.

It was just that the junior sister didn't tell him in detail how much he had leaked. But no matter what, he should not have been accepted by the Qi Refining Sect at that time, let alone a noble and secluded sect like Yunmeng Jianze.

As for his Qi refining physique after swallowing the first golden elixir, it became what the junior sister called above average. However, Ouyang Rong did not ask in detail what level it was, after all, there was no need to.

Because he relied on the unique sacrificial rituals of the Taoist priests to break through the realm and improve his quality. It was a very unconventional way. He did not use the Dantian fetal bottle like his junior sister and Taoist Lu to cultivate spiritual energy step by step and improve his cultivation.

But Ouyang Rong didn't actually have high expectations for the quality of his current fetal bottle, because the time it took for the Dantian's spiritual energy to slowly recover spoke for itself.

The spiritual energy he had exhausted last night had not yet recovered even halfway without the help of energy-replenishing pills.

But Ouyang Rong was not too panicked. It was not like he had never experienced hard times. His previous leaky body was even worse, and he couldn't even refine Qi. Now his fetal bottle was improved beyond belief by a Transcendent Golden Pill. At least it was a perfect fetal bottle that could contain spiritual energy, allowing him to grind all the way up to the seventh level. It was simply tearful.

So, people have already experienced the low point, and no matter what happens next, it will be upward.

Ouyang Rong silently touched a bamboo tube he carried with him, and a certain golden elixir was still quietly lying in the picture of Peach Blossom Spring inside.

Senior Sister Yuan did not notice that Ouyang Rong was looking down in thought. She continued to explain loudly:
"Except for those with leaky bodies that are not suitable for Qi Refining, the Qi Refiners in the Pre-Qin Dynasty divided them into three levels from low to high.

"Cracked pottery bottles, rusted copper bottles, empty celadon bottles.

"This is also the conventional level of the fetus bottle. In the second stage of the assessment of root bone talent, you can understand them as low, medium, and high levels."

The cold-faced Yuenu pointed at Ahong, who was walking off the stage in a daze, and nodded:
"Ah Hong's fetal bottle almost meets the requirements of a green porcelain empty bottle. It is considered to be of top quality. Not bad."

Lu Jinghong asked boldly:
"Excuse me, Senior Sister Yuan, you said these are the three common types of fetal bottles. Is there anything better out there?"

Senior Sister Yuan glanced at him and said patiently:
“Yes, there are more. The first three have already covered most of them. Above that, there is the top-grade fetal bottle, also known as the Glazed Purifying Bottle. This kind of fetal bottle can perfectly contain spiritual energy.

“Based on potential, a low-grade fetal bottle can enter the realm of a low-grade Qi Refiner, but it is extremely difficult to become a mid-grade Qi Refiner, and it is impossible to become a high-grade Qi Refiner.

"It is not difficult to cultivate to the lower level with a medium-level fetal bottle. With hard work, you can cultivate to the middle-level Qigong practitioner. It is almost impossible to become a high-level Qigong practitioner. There is only a glimmer of hope.

“For a high-grade fetal bottle, it is not difficult to cultivate into a middle-grade Qi Refiner, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate into a high-grade Qi Refiner. It requires a great opportunity.

“But those who possess the top-grade Glazed Pure Bottle can reach the sixth rank almost without any obstacles, and have a good chance of breaking through the sixth rank and becoming a top-grade Qi Refiner. They are excellent seedlings and can be considered Qi Refining geniuses. As long as they don’t die prematurely or suffer setbacks in their character, they will have the opportunity to achieve top-grade status. This kind of person is also the most suitable for cultivation.

"Oh, I forgot to mention that in today's second level, if you have a glass bottle, women can directly become disciples of the female monarch, and men can directly enter the Bamboo Hall."

Lu Jinghong's mouth was dry after hearing this. He seemed to be about to ask more questions, but Senior Sister Yuan had already said calmly:

"Well, among the Yue women in front, there are those who have the Glazed Pure Bottle, and even the most outstanding one is a rare divine bottle, called the Purple Gold Jade Bottle, which is rare in a hundred years. It is an eye-opener for everyone. Although Uncle Tang carefully investigated the weather and found that it was only half a Purple Gold Jade Bottle, not the most perfect weather, it is still very rare and can be considered a divine bottle without a doubt."

Uncle Tang should be the old Yue woman who presided over the second level on the high platform. At this moment, she looked in the direction where the group of Yue women left, folded her hands in front of her, and showed admiration:
"I have learned the secret art of the bottle and presided over the root bone examination for so many years. I can find another divine fetus bottle. This is also a happy thing in my old age. I have no regrets."

Lu Jinghong and the other young men stared:
"God-grade fetal bottle...purple gold jade bottle?"

Ouyang Rong also followed his companions and looked sideways. It was the first time he heard of this ancient and novel knowledge of Qi refining. It was estimated that only the long-term secluded thousand-year-old sect like Yunmeng Jianze had it. Just like the ancient Wu costumes worn by the Yue women, it has maintained the tradition of the Qi refining practitioners in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Senior Sister Yuan nodded, turned her head and looked at the direction where the new Yue girls left. Her originally cold eyes also showed a little envy:
“Well, in addition to the four types of fetal bottles mentioned above, which cover most of the fetal bottles, the Qi-refining predecessors of the pre-Qin period also discovered some strange fetal bottles, which are very different from the first four types of fetal bottles and are also stronger than the first four types of fetal bottles.

"They listed these special fetal bottles as divine fetal bottles and gave them names. Those with names are those that have been discovered, and there are also those that have not been discovered by Qigong practitioners... They are all superior to the four types of fetal bottles and have been discovered and named, such as the Purple Gold Jade Bottle, Kunlun Mountain Bottle, Guixu Vortex Bottle, Inverted Tripod Bottle, and Thunder Pool Treasure Bottle...

"But these are rare divine fetal vases that only appear once in a hundred years, and they are also recorded in ancient books. In the past thousand years of our sect's Yue women selection, there have been only a handful of perfect divine fetal vases, and among the current female monarchs of our sect, some of them are also among them.

“It can be said that those who possess this kind of divine fetal bottle will almost certainly enter the upper level of Qi Refining. As for whether they can go further and enter the legendary Shenzhou Heavenly Man Realm, it depends on their own luck.

"The Divine Realm is not something that can be achieved simply by having an outstanding talent for Qi Refining. There are too many mysteries. Even the Grand Princess of our sect does not dare to say that she will definitely reach this realm. And your Excellency the Grand Princess is already one of the female cultivators who has broken through the realm the fastest in the history of our sect..."

Senior Sister Yuan shook her head slightly:
"But the young lady today is in a special situation. She was brought back by the Grand Lady herself. It's not surprising that she has a divine fetal bottle and top-level swordsmanship qualifications. The Grand Lady values ​​her very much. She even made an exception for her some time ago and left Jianze, risking her life to go down the mountain and bring her back." Half of a divine fetal bottle, and a purple gold jade bottle with a bonus for Qi refining. Not to mention the other two tests, the Grand Lady should have personally accepted her as a disciple. In fact, this young lady doesn't need to compete anymore, but the procedures must be followed. This is the rule left by the Yuan Lords of all generations. Even if you are the chief Grand Lady, you must abide by it."

Senior Sister Yuan clasped her fists towards the Yunmeng Patriarchal Hall, her face became more serious, and she changed the subject:
"But it's a pity for the girls in the same batch. There are obviously many outstanding girls in this batch, and there are more girls who are eye-catching than in previous years. It's a pity that they were overshadowed by her. If she can win the third level like this, it will really become a good story. The last person who could achieve the grand slam of three levels was the eldest lady."

The young men looked at each other in bewilderment.

Senior Sister Yuan didn't waste any words. She turned around and continued to stand with her hands behind her back, facing away from everyone and said:

"Okay, it's your turn to continue your performance. Next up, Liu Aliang."

Ouyang Rong adjusted his felt hat, stepped onto the stage, and came before the old Master Tang...

"Hats off."

Ouyang Rong turned his back to everyone, took off his felt hat, and was about to reach out to Uncle Tang, but he paused slightly and looked at the tattoo on his forehead for a few more seconds. It was unknown what he was thinking of.

She didn't ask, but looked kind and put her palm on Ouyang Rong's forehead.

One breath...two breaths...

In less than three breaths, Uncle Tang withdrew his hand.

Ouyang Rong discovered that although it was less than three breaths, the time this old Vietnamese woman spent exploring his fetal bottle was longer than that of Ah Hong just now. She seemed to frown slightly in the middle and repeated the exploration, but in the end she still frowned and chose to retract her hand.

Uncle Tang looked at the young man with a dull expression and spoke slowly:
"Liu Aliang, is your last name Liu too?... The Dantian bottle is hollow, with a shallow bottom and narrow mouth. When spiritual energy is poured in, it overflows a little, but there are no cracks like the coarse pottery. Instead, there are some rust spots, which can slowly dissolve the rust and clear the meridians..."

Uncle Tang turned around and said to the Yue girl who was recording beside him:
"It's a fairly standard copper rust bottle, a medium-sized bottle. As for the bone age... nineteen, a bit old."

The tone sounded a little regretful.

Seeing that his identity was not exposed and he had passed the test, Ouyang Rong was unwilling to stay any longer. He turned around stiffly and quickly walked down the platform.

There seemed to be some gazes cast at him from all around, but he didn't pay much attention to them, including the subtle reactions of Uncle Tang and others. After passing this hurdle where he would be most easily exposed, Ouyang Rong actually felt slightly relieved.

His Qi Refining talent was average, which was expected and nothing surprising. In addition, Ouyang Rong still had a Transcendent Golden Pill on him that he had not taken, which he did specifically to avoid today's entry inspection.

Now it seems that it’s a good thing I didn’t take it.

At the beginning, Ouyang Rong transformed from an ordinary leaky body to the current medium-level Qi-refining talent with only one pill of Transcendent Golden Pill. After careful calculation, it can be said that he jumped two levels and surpassed the lower-level Qi-refining talent.

If the newly acquired Transcendent Golden Pill in my hand had been taken before today, and if it could leap two more levels, a rough estimate shows that the fetus bottle would have the ultimate talent, becoming a so-called Glazed Pure Bottle, and entering the Bamboo Hall directly.

And it will inevitably attract the attention of Miss Zhishuang and other female monarchs. If Miss Zhishuang finds out that this suddenly explosive Liu Aliang is a waste material that she has personally tested, with inconsistent talents, she will probably have to slice him into pieces for research.

Ouyang Rong remained calm and returned to the stage.

Hiro turned to look at him and patted his shoulder, seemingly encouragingly.

On the platform, the second level of testing was still going on. After Ouyang Rong, it was Sha Ergou, Lu Jinghong and others.

After a few breaths, Uncle Tang withdrew his hand from Sha Ergou's head, glanced at him, and said kindly:

"Sha Ergou, Dantian Ti Bottle, hollow inside, like a small hourglass, spiritual energy is like fog and difficult to condense, but there are spots of rust on the mouth of the bottle... It can also be considered a copper rust bottle, of medium quality, and as for the bone age, fifteen... Not bad."

"Thank you, goddess."

Sha Ergou ran down the stage and said to Ouyang Rong with a silly smile:
"Brother Liu, I am also a copper bottle, but I can be as good as Brother Liu. Hehe, I am also very powerful."

Zhongzhongtian Capital had no right to show off, but after hearing Sha Ergou's foolish words, Ouyang Rong couldn't help but smile and nodded.

At this moment, Uncle Tang's surprised voice suddenly came from above:
"What's your last name, kid? Where are you from?"

Ouyang Rong and others turned around and saw that it was Lu Jinghong. An old Vietnamese woman was holding his forehead and checking the fetal position.

I saw that Master Tang had a strange look on his face.

Lu Jinghong clasped his fists:
"My surname is Lu, and I come from the Lu family of Fanyang in the north..."

Uncle Tang interrupted:

"No wonder, you are a descendant of the Fanyang Lu family. I can tell from your fetal bottle that it is not an ordinary one. It is very different from the four common ones. The last time I saw this kind of fetal bottle was when it was the third daughter of our sect..."

She paused, first looked at Lu Jinghong with complicated eyes, then restrained her expression, regained her seriousness, turned to the cold-faced Yue girl and the writing Yue girl and said:
"Record it as usual, Lu Jinghong, immortality..." Uncle Tang paused, and seemed to change his words: "Lu's medicine bottle, a special blood fetus bottle, Qi refining qualifications... equivalent to the Liuli Jingping bottle, which can be regarded as a top-grade qualification."

"Lu's medicine bottle?"

Lu Jinghong was stunned at first, but when he heard the last four words, he was immediately filled with joy...
