Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation.

Chapter 131 The Dao Foundation Has Been Established
After confirming that his condition had reached its peak, Li Ji'an sent a message to Zhao Shuyao.

"Xiao Fan is finally going to build his foundation!" Zhao Shuyao received the message, and a hint of excitement appeared on her usually calm face.

Sixty-seven years ago, the five of them came to this world from the Xianci Dynasty.

As a result, among the five people, only Zhang Tiezhu went the furthest and stopped at the sixth level of Qi training.

And now, among the second generation, Zhang Tiezhu's child is in the Yan family, and it is very likely that he will stop at the late stage of Qi training for his whole life. Dong Jiangling's daughter has given birth to children, and her path to immortality is almost cut off. Only Li Ji'an's son is finally going to see the scenery of the foundation-building period for their generation.

In addition to this meaning,
Zhao Shuyao and the other two had previously placed their hopes on Li Ji'an, hoping that after he established his foundation, he would help them take revenge on the hundreds of geniuses from the Immortal Dynasty who had been tricked into this world over the past hundred years.

However, as I grow older, I learn more about the spiritual world.

Especially after they knew it was almost certain to be one of the five major families, they became more and more desperate.

Zhang Tiezhu and Dong Jiangling have completely given up.

She was even more unwilling to let the younger generations carry the hatred of their generation, as that would be too tiring.

The most crucial thing is that even if Li Ji'an succeeds in building his foundation, he will have no chance of winning against the fake Dan ancestor of the family.

Unless Li Ji'an can form a pill, but they all understand that this is almost impossible!

Perhaps only after he has established his foundation and found a Taoist partner with equal talent will there be hope for the next generation.

"Yaoyao, accompany Aunt Yao for a while." Concentrating her emotions, the 95-year-old Zhao Shuyao's energy and blood gradually rose, and she regained the aura of a first-level perfect physical cultivator.

Tong Yaoyao looked around Zhao Shuyao, marveling at her, as if she saw again the scene when she was a child and was ambushed on the road, and the thirty-year-old Zhao Shuyao saved her from the hands of the demon cultivator with her physical strength.

"Auntie Yao, relax, I'm here for you." Tong Yaoyao stepped forward and took Zhao Shuyao's arm, comforting her.

"Sometimes I'm really jealous of that kid. I feel like you haven't been as good to me as you were to him, all because of his heartless father!"

"Another nonsense."

Soon, the two arrived at the cave rental area in the inner city.

"Huh? So many people are paying attention to this kid." Tong Yaoyao paused slightly when she reached the door of Li Ji'an's rented cave.

Then he suddenly released his spiritual sense, dispelling the several spiritual senses that were covering this place.

"Xiao Fan has profound alchemy skills. Once he succeeds in building his foundation, he will definitely be promoted to a second-level alchemist. It's normal for people to pay attention to him." Zhao Shuyao patted Tong Yaoyao's hand, signaling her not to think too much.

Being blocked from the spiritual consciousness of Tong Yaoyao, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, several people in the inner city residential area were startled for a moment and decisively gave up their attention to Li Ji'an.

Someone even hurriedly sent a message to Tong Yaoyao: "Senior, please forgive me. I just want to confirm whether Master Li Dan can successfully build his foundation. I have no other intentions in mind."

Li Ji'an sensed the arrival of the two and made a special trip out of the cave to express his gratitude.

Ever since he entered the cave three days ago, some foundation-building practitioners nearby began to pay attention to him. He didn't care about it and it didn't affect him at all.

The foundation-building cave is isolated by a magic array that can isolate the consciousness of a Jindan cultivator. Naturally, they cannot penetrate it. They can only sense the fluctuations of spiritual energy outside the cave and make judgments.

After Zhao Shuyao and Tong Yaoyao sat down outside the cave, Li Ji'an entered the cave without any hesitation.

After reverting to youth four times, he truly touched the foundation of immortality for the first time.

As all the magic arrays in the cave were activated, Li Ji'an began to practice the foundation-building method.

Based on the research on foundation building in recent years, whether it is the records in ancient books or the experience of Yan Qingwan and Xiao Changfeng, one thing is clear.

Laying the foundation is to lay the foundation of the great Dao. Only when the foundation is laid successfully, can one be considered truly qualified to seek immortality and ask for the Dao.

Li Ji'an had already understood the theoretical knowledge of the foundation-building stage. The essence was to condense the gaseous magic power refined into the Dantian during the Qi training period into liquid magic power, further nourish the Dantian, and cause the Dantian to transform, thus laying the foundation for the future pregnancy of the elixir, transformation into an infant, and even transformation into a god.

The principle is to fill the body with vast spiritual energy, compress the gaseous magic power in the dantian with powerful spiritual pressure, and finally condense the energy into liquid.

As for the steps, the first step is to infuse the body with spiritual energy.

This step is also a key step to test your physical fitness.

Once the physical body is damaged or the physique is not strong, it will be difficult to withstand the sudden and overwhelming pressure of spiritual energy.

The stronger the physical body, the greater the spiritual pressure it can withstand, and the more spiritual energy can be infused into the body. Conversely, the less spiritual energy there is, the weaker it is.

"Boom~"

At this stage, Li Ji'an had completed the first stage of physical cultivation, and had no injuries from fighting. He was confident that his physical physique could reach the pinnacle of Qi training in this world. Apart from those legendary special physical physiques, he believed that he was not inferior to anyone.

As the valve of the physical body opened, the abundant spiritual energy condensed in the cave instantly poured in madly.

"Hiss~" Although he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but tremble all over when he actually endured it, even with his strong physique.

The moment the spiritual energy entered his body, he felt that every cell was under tremendous pressure and was being torn apart.

However, he had no intention of stopping absorbing spiritual energy. He continued to let the spiritual energy flow in and challenge the limits of his physical body.

Because the more spiritual energy is poured in, the stronger the final spiritual pressure will be, and the easier it will be to compress the magic power into liquid.

While the spiritual energy was entering his body, his spiritual consciousness was also not idle. He was fully aware of the changes in every part of his body and analyzing every detail.

In addition to accumulating experience for the next life, it is also to gain insight into the origin, check for omissions and shortcomings, and find areas for optimization.

After three full days,

Li Ji'an took a deep breath, controlled his qi and blood, slowly closed the valves of his body, and stopped absorbing spiritual energy.

Finally, he reached the limit of his physical body and could no longer accommodate any more spiritual energy.

At this moment, every part of his body seemed to be filled with spiritual energy.

At the same time, he sensed that the spiritual energy in the cave was still abundant.

"This level is 20% stronger than Xiao Changfeng's!" Xiao Changfeng shared his experience at that time. He absorbed the spiritual energy in his physical body for two full days before stopping. However, he was borrowing the quasi-third-level Taoist temple of the sect elders at that time. The spiritual energy was richer and fuller. In addition, his top-grade spiritual roots made him absorb spiritual energy faster. Overall, the total amount of spiritual energy in his body in the first step was only 20% less than Li Ji'an's.

After the spiritual energy was infused into his body, Li Ji'an immediately began to condense the magic power in his dantian.

In this life, he practices the Yan family's "Flame Dragon Art", which is said to have the potential to reach the stage of forming a golden elixir, comparable to the sect's top-grade skills. However, compared with Xiao Changfeng before, the strength of his magic power is still a little lacking. However, because it is refined by the fire spirit, it is more than pure.

At this moment, the second level was mana. Theoretically, the stronger and more refined the mana, the smoother and more abundant the transformation would be after being squeezed by spiritual pressure, and the more it would fill the entire dantian. He couldn't pursue the quantity of transformation, after all, his mana wasn't strong enough, so he could only pursue the refinement of his mana.

A few days later, after he had refined his magic power to the extreme to the extent that there was no room for improvement, Li Ji'an decisively swallowed the top-grade Ningbi Pill to further refine his magic power.

Half a month later, when the magic power was refined to the limit, the third level of spiritual consciousness intervened.

The process of the vast spiritual energy squeezing the magic power in the Dantian must be controlled by the spiritual consciousness.

If it is one point less, the liquid will not be complete; if it is one point more, there is a possibility of rupture of the Dantian.

Therefore, the spiritual consciousness is the most critical level.

Moreover, this step lasts for a long time and requires the persistent effect of spiritual consciousness.

However, for Li Ji'an, this level is the one he does not need to worry about the least. His consciousness is already comparable to that of a person in the middle stage of foundation building, and his soul is strong. At this moment, sensing his dantian and adjusting his spiritual pressure are as easy as pie. No matter the level of refinement or the duration, it can be called perfect.

In this way, two months passed in a flash.

On this day, he looked at his dantian and felt that the vast spiritual energy he had absorbed in the first step had been guided by his spiritual consciousness and injected into his dantian.

The refined magic power in the dantian is in the center of the huge spiritual pressure.

The last step, which also determines success or failure, requires continuous spiritual pressure to completely transform the magic power into liquid and condense it into a ball.

"Huh~" After successfully passing the first three levels, Li Ji'an still didn't dare to relax.

According to Yan Qingwan's experience, she needed to take the Foundation Establishment Pill at this moment.

The foundation-building pill can not only strengthen the dantian in a short period of time and prevent the instantaneous huge spiritual pressure from exploding the dantian, but also provide the dantian with instantaneous magic power and controllable powerful spiritual pressure.

Relying on the instantaneous spiritual pressure provided by the Foundation Establishment Pill in the Dantian, the magic power mist is squeezed into liquid.

It can be said that the Foundation Establishment Pill not only makes up for the shortcomings of the physical body, but also fails to absorb enough spiritual energy into the body, thus leading to the shortcoming of insufficient spiritual pressure in the last step.

It can also be beneficial to those who lack magical powers.

It even makes up for the deficiency of insufficient spiritual awareness to finely and continuously adjust the spiritual energy into the Dantian.

It is simply a lifeline for monks who lack talent.

Li Ji'an took out the fine foundation-building pill, but did not take it immediately. Instead, he took a fine meridian-protecting pill first.

"Boom~" The moment the meridian-protecting elixir liquid flowed into Dantian, Li Ji'an controlled the spiritual energy and began to squeeze the magic power mist in Dantian.

This is also what Xiao Changfeng did at the time.

At the moment when the spiritual pressure exploded, Li Ji'an clearly sensed that the originally gaseous magic power began to moisten and liquefy.

At the same time, the entire inner wall of the Dantian is under greater pressure than the physical body.

Without the meridian-protecting pill, Li Ji'an couldn't guarantee whether his dantian could withstand it.

As time passed, the magic power gradually turned into liquid.

At the same time, there was a hint of inspiration that connected with the spiritual consciousness, but it was very vague and could not be touched.

Half a month later, Li Ji'an clearly sensed that all the magic power clouds in his dantian had turned into liquid magic power, but those liquid magic powers were acting independently and did not condense into a ball.

And that hint of sensation in the dark has yet to be felt.

"It's still a little short after all!" After observing carefully for a long time, Li Ji'an sighed slightly and understood the reason.

The most crucial point is that one's own magic power is insufficient.

This is related to the cultivation method in this life, and also to the efficiency of one's own spiritual roots in absorbing and refining.

Without thinking any more, he swallowed the high-quality foundation-building pill in one gulp.

"Boom~"

The moment the fine foundation-building pill was swallowed, the dantian was covered with a layer of golden light, and then a powerful spiritual pressure emerged out of thin air, and pure magic power also flowed into the dantian.

The next moment, without Li Ji'an doing anything, the spiritual pressure released by the fine foundation-building pill began to squeeze the magic power in his dantian.

"Bang!" In just a moment, whether it was the magic power that had just been born or the magic power that had condensed into liquid but not condensed into a ball, they were all squeezed into liquid in an instant, and quickly merged into one, turning into a red liquid magic ball as red as fire.

The liquid magic ball rotated at high speed, eventually filling the entire Dantian, turning the Dantian into a magic ball that seemed to be filled with lava.

"Boom!" After another drum-like sound, the excess spiritual energy in the dantian and the spiritual energy in the physical body all poured out instantly.

When the vast spiritual energy left the body, it caused a riot of spiritual energy in the cave, and even caused the spiritual pressure above the cave to surge.

"It's done!" Tong Yaoyao opened her eyes instantly outside the cave.

"Xiao Fan succeeded in building his foundation?" Zhao Shuyao's face was filled with relief when she heard this, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Hahaha, congratulations to Master Li Dan for successfully building his foundation." As the spiritual pressure above the cave fluctuated, the people around him could finally come and congratulate him with good reason.

"Such a huge spiritual pressure was released. Master Li Dan's foundation building is going very smoothly!"

"My Immortal City has added another second-level alchemist, what a joyful occasion!"

……

As the congratulations from outside became more and more, Li Ji sat quietly in the cave, but his brows were furrowed.

While summarizing his experience in building the foundation, he recalled the hint of inspiration that came to him.

It was obviously very close, but it suddenly disappeared in the end.

"It seems to have disappeared when the foundation-building pill took effect!"

After thinking about it for a long time, I still had no clue and could only keep it in my heart.

"This is the foundation building!" After carefully examining his Dantian and feeling the fiery and powerful magic power, Li Ji'an finally smiled.
