Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation.

Chapter 74 Protecting You
The Breaking Level Pill is a special pill that forcibly condenses the magic power in the Dantian, causing it to undergo an instant qualitative change. The reason why it must be successfully refined by an experienced alchemist is that it has no quality distinction. If the pill condensation step is not completed, the pill cannot be made.

Looking at the Feiyun Pill in Yan Qingwan's hand, Li Ji'an was a little surprised.

In recent years, the clan has invested almost regardless of cost in order to invest in Yan Qingwan's alchemy skills. In addition, the early development of the medicinal field also requires a lot of investment. As far as he knows, the clan's financial situation is not very good, so there is fierce competition among the clan members waiting for the breakthrough pill.

In addition, the alchemy shop's business has been dismal in the past year, and not only Yan Qingwan, but even the elders of the clan who fully support her are under great pressure.

It was not easy for her to get a Feiyun Pill for herself at this time.

"Brother Li, we have known each other for eleven years, and you have shown me countless kindnesses. You are the primary contributor to my current achievements in alchemy, not to mention saving my life. I have done very little for you. Over the years, I have already regarded you as a relative and brother. Please do not refuse!" Seeing Li Ji'an's expression, Yan Qingwan took another step forward and spoke earnestly.

"Okay! I will remember this favor in my heart!" Li Ji'an solemnly took the Feiyun Pill.

Yan Qingwan smiled with satisfaction: "Brother Li, you are too kind. This is only a tenth of my repayment for your kindness."

"Why don't you take it now and break through? I'll be there to protect you."

"Protect me?" Li Ji'an smiled bitterly in his heart.

Breaking through the middle stage of Qi training is the smallest and lowest hurdle on the road of cultivation. Normally, there is no need for Dharma protectors at this stage. Only when breaking through to a higher realm like foundation building or forming elixir is there a need for Dharma protectors.

However, he also understood. After all, he only had two strands of spiritual roots. Perhaps in Yan Qingwan's knowledge, there had never been a person with such low spiritual roots who broke through to the middle stage of Qi training. At least in the Yan family, if someone wanted to obtain Feiyun Pill, they had to have at least five strands of spiritual roots to be eligible.

"Okay, you protect me!" He responded, but in his heart he suddenly thought: "I wonder if I will have the chance to protect her in my next life?"

His dantian had undergone a complete transformation several years ago, and he had already fully understood the concept of refining his magical power. Now that he had the Feiyun Pill, a breakthrough was a piece of cake.

After a little breathing and concentration, Li Ji'an took the Feiyun Pill into his mouth...

A hint of coolness melted in the mouth, then gathered into a line, slowly flowed into the stomach, and then spread to every part of the body.

Li Ji'an carefully sensed the effect of his condensed magic power and memorized every change in his heart.

"Swish~" In less than a cup of tea, the Feiyun Dan liquid that was originally flowing slowly into the limbs suddenly accelerated, driving the spiritual energy that had been integrated into the body to suddenly gather towards the Dantian.

"So that's how it is..." Feeling the spiritual pressure in the dantian surge, the originally thin gaseous magic power gradually gathered, and indeed showed the early signs of liquefaction.

At this point, he fully understood the so-called first hurdle in cultivation.

Based on his own situation, perhaps with his spiritual roots capable of sensing more than six strands of spiritual energy, he would have the confidence to break through without any external help, and it would only take a little longer.

It takes half an hour to condense the magic power in Dantian.

When the effect of the medicine finally disappeared, the magic power in his dantian had undergone a qualitative change.

Compared to the initial stage of Qi training, although the magic power is still thin, it is more condensed, and the overall energy is at least three times more.

This year, Li Ji'an was forty-one years old and was promoted to the fourth level of Qi training.

He barely has the strength to fight, and is no longer the lowest ant in the world of cultivation.

Yan Qingwan had been staring intently from the side until she sensed a surge in his magical power, and then she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She was indeed a little worried, fearing that Li Ji'an, with such spiritual roots and at such a young age, would die suddenly from forcing himself to reach the middle stage of Qi training.

"Congratulations, Brother Li, for successfully advancing to the middle stage of Qi training!"

"It all depends on Qingwan's Feiyun Pill." Li Ji'an's eyelids twitched slightly.

The middle stage of Qi training... the backbone... this congratulation made him feel a little embarrassed.

In the following month, Li Ji'an stayed in the small courtyard in the west district to consolidate his cultivation in the middle stage of Qi training, and carefully comprehended the fundamentals of cultivation after the middle stage of Qi training.

"Huh~ Everything is the same. The higher you go, the less likely you are to win by rolling!" After slowly finishing his training, Li Ji'an shook his head slightly.

Talent can guarantee an upper limit, but luck can only guarantee a lower limit.

After entering the middle stage of Qi training, daily practice no longer relies solely on the amount of mana accumulated like in the early stage. It also requires the condensation of mana. If the condensation effect of a large circle cannot be achieved, no matter how much mana is accumulated, it will be useless.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the middle stage of Qi training will be the peak of this life!"

Li Ji'an was quite calm about this, and he didn't have the tyranny to go against the will of heaven.

The only thing he has is some anticipation for his talent in the next life, but he is also somewhat nervous. After all, he can only "rejuvenate" to the age of eight, and his state before the age of eight must still be in the unsolvable reality of the Land of Absolute Spirits.

"After rejuvenation, you must enter the spiritual vein dojo as soon as possible to sense the energy."

"The other thing is the Yangyuan Pill!" Without this pill, he would be a little less confident.

"Well, there are also top-grade techniques." In this world, in addition to the poor spiritual roots, this low-grade "Nine Yang Art" technique is also a problem. The efficiency of refining magic power is too low.

In addition to magic power, he also planned to prepare some body refining spirit crystals for his next life.

Even though it is difficult to improve his magic power in this lifetime, he still wants to work hard to try to take his body refining to the next level.

The "Hundred-Tempering Golden Body Art" that Chen Zhaohu passed on to him was extraordinary and could at least support the second level of body refining.

Unfortunately, the alchemy shop's business is not good and there is no dividend. With only a monthly salary of eight spirit stones, it is not enough to buy enough Thunder Flame Crystals.

After understanding himself and making some plans for the future, Li Ji'an left the courtyard and headed towards the alchemy shop.

You can try to make the elixir yourself.

Although the pill fire can only support the refining of pills corresponding to the middle stage of Qi training, he is confident in the quality of the finished pills.

"Mr. Li, you really kept me waiting for a long time." As soon as he went out, a young man came up to him with a smile, as if he was waiting for him.

"Who are you?" Li Ji'an was slightly stunned.

The young man smiled flatteringly: "Li Keqing, don't worry about who I am. You just need to know that you are about to get lucky!"

Li Ji'an raised his eyebrows slightly, with some guesses in his mind.

As expected, the young man immediately said, "You are so lucky to have caught the eye of my young master. The young master has specially sent me to invite you to the top-notch Tianxian Tower in the market. Let's go."

Li Ji'an remained calm, but sighed in his heart.

Over the past year, he almost never met Zheng Tianxiang, and except in the alchemy shop, he almost reduced his presence.

He actually came to my door.

"We can't keep those servants in the alchemy shop anymore." Li Ji'an muttered to himself and followed the young man to Tianxian Tower.

This kind of thing cannot be refused. Calling it an invitation is just a way to flatter Li Ji'an.

As the young master of the Zheng family, if he wanted to touch Yan Qingwan, he would need to consider the consequences, but if he wanted to touch an elderly cultivator from another family, he would not need to consider that.

The prostitutes in the brothels of the spiritual world do not have purely physical needs like those in the secular world. In addition to the pleasure of sex and the dual release of body and mind, they are also connected with spiritual practice.

The harmony between heaven and earth and the complementarity between yin and yang are the true great ways, and are by no means dirty things that should not be shown to others.

The part-time female cultivators here are not only monks, but also have to practice the secret method of dual cultivation before they can work part-time here.

Moreover, when customers come here to spend money, the part-time female cultivators naturally cannot get spirit stones, enjoy physical pleasure, and take advantage of their cultivation at the same time. Therefore, they will almost always give 80% of the magic power or soul of the dual cultivation to the customers, and can only keep 20% for themselves.

Of course, in addition to meat dishes, there are also vegetarian dishes. Meat dishes rely on the method of dual cultivation of yin and yang, while vegetarian dishes rely entirely on talent, mainly music, massage, and bathing. They are mostly about purifying the soul, emptying the mind, and achieving the purpose of resolving mental knots and releasing stress, which is very good for the state of mind.

Zheng Tianxiang is in a private room on the third floor of Tianxian Building.

"Mr. Li, I'm sorry for the inconvenience of inviting you. Please take a seat." As soon as Li Ji'an appeared, Zheng Tianxiang greeted him with a warm smile.

Seeing his attitude, Li Ji'an felt a little bit troubled. He deduced several possibilities along the way. The best one to deal with was that the other party was an arrogant and brainless villain. He could drive away the wolf and the tiger or provoke the tiger to fight.

The most difficult to deal with is this kind of thing nowadays. It is a soft knife that does not draw blood, but is the most deadly.

"Come here, call all the fairies up and let Li Keqing choose!" Before Li Ji'an could respond, he had already instructed the madam of Tianxianlou to call the part-time fairies.
