I can gather experience beads

"How dare Jin Guang chase you."

"Don't give me the chance next time, or I will chop off his head."

Early in the morning at Qingling Xiuxian Market, Cao Rui had just returned to the training tower when Ye Yunyin pulled him up and asked if things were going well.

After learning that Master Jin Guang was hunting down Cao Rui, he was quite indignant.

Cao Rui said calmly, "Elder Ye, I will not leave the market until I have built my foundation after returning from this trip."

"It's just a small golden light. When I come out of seclusion, I will find an opportunity to kill it with my own hands."

After many conflicts with Master Jin Guang, Cao Rui had already been keeping his eyes on this guy and put him on his kill list.

"In that case, I won't disturb your retreat."

"Practice well, I hope you can succeed in building your foundation soon."

Ye Yunyin said goodbye and left.

Cao Rui then went to Danlingbao Pavilion.

I found Sun Ming and agreed on the number of spiritual medicines that would be sent to the training tower next time.

Return to the alchemy room in your own training tower.

At this time, Cao Rui finally had time to take out the gains from this trip to the inheritance cave.

First of all, there are two inherited skills from Master Shenyuan.

This was also the biggest gain of Cao Rui's trip.

Cao Rui picked up a jade slip and input a little magic power into it. The information of [Shen Yuan Jue] immediately entered Cao Rui's mind.

【Shenyuan Jue】, was created by the True Lord Shenyuan, and is a method of cultivating immortals that can be practiced until one reaches the state of becoming a god.

However, when Master Shenyuan was building the inheritance cave, he only practiced this technique to the Nascent Soul stage.

Although the subsequent part of the transformation into a god was deduced by the True Lord Shenyuan and is theoretically feasible, if there are any problems when practicing to the stage of transformation into a god, Cao Rui will need to make changes on his own.

Cao Rui felt that Lord Shenyuan had most likely ascended to the spiritual world, so there shouldn't be any major problems with this technique.

【Shenyuan Jue】is divided into twelve levels in the foundation-building stage, twelve levels in the golden elixir stage, twelve levels in the Nascent Soul stage, and twelve levels in the God Transformation stage.

Each realm has twelve levels.

The characteristic of this magic formula is that the magic power cultivated is relatively rich, and what is particularly special is that practicing this magic formula can enhance spiritual consciousness.

It accumulates from the foundation-building stage, and as time goes on, the strength of spiritual awareness far exceeds that of the same level.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, theoretically, the spiritual awareness strength can even become a threat to even higher-level Divine Transformation cultivators.

[Shenyuan Jue] Each realm has a corresponding spiritual power, which allows the cultivator to show off his spiritual power in battles of the same level.

Finished reading the information of [Shen Yuan Jue].

Cao Rui looked towards the [Great Five Elements Sword Formation].

This sword formation is truly unmatched in combat power. It requires the simultaneous control of five magic swords to form a complete sword formation. Ordinary cultivators cannot control five magic swords at the same time, so it requires those with extremely strong spiritual awareness to practice it.

The Great Five Elements Sword Formation is a fighting type technique that complements the [Shen Yuan Jue].

This skill can be upgraded all the way to increase the power of the sword formation according to the quality of the five matching magic swords.

Using five first-level magic swords in the Foundation Establishment Stage is one level of power, and using five second-level magic swords in the Golden Core Stage is another level of power.

Both the upper and lower limits are very high, making it suitable for long-term practice as a primary method of fighting.

Next came the golden magic sword thrown to Cao Rui by the casual cultivator Chu Fei.

When faced with the threat of Jin Guang, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Cao Rui accepted without hesitation this magic sword that came from the inheritance cave and should have belonged to him.

This magic sword is obviously a first-level magic sword.

Cao Rui used his spiritual sense to scan the magic sword. There were ten first-level magic arrays engraved on the magic sword!

Even among the many second-tier magical instruments, there are only ten magic arrays engraved on them.

The biggest difference between a first-order magic array and a zero-order magic array is that the engraved volume is much smaller.

This will result in more first-order magic arrays being engraved on magic swords of the same size.

Although a first-order magic array is small in size, the number of patterns is more complex and numerous, and it conducts more magical energy, which requires higher hardness and adaptability of the magic weapon material. The more connections the magic array has, the greater the pressure, and the requirements for the material of the magic weapon will further increase.

Cao Rui guessed that this golden magic sword was probably given by Master Shenyuan to his disciples so that they could successfully refine the magic weapon needed for the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

With this magic sword as the leader, and four other magic swords of inferior attributes, it should be able to unleash some of the power of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

"The most urgent task is to break through to the foundation-building stage, so that I can practice the [Divine Yuan Jue] and [Great Five Elements Sword Formation]."

Cao Rui started his journey of seclusion.

To break through from the eleventh level of the Qi Refining Stage to the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage, one needs approximately twenty thousand Fire Lotus Pills.

In about two hundred days, Cao Rui was able to advance to the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

......

Summer goes and winter comes.

There is no time to cultivate immortality.

During his retreat and hard practice, Cao Rui unknowingly reached the age of 27.

In early February, the ice melts, the grass grows, and the birds fly.

A slight fluctuation of spiritual power came from Cao Rui's alchemy room.

In the alchemy room, Cao Rui opened his eyes with joy: "I have been promoted to the twelfth level of Qi Refining."

Just now, Cao Rui filled up the experience value of Mingyu Gong's experience beads and successfully advanced to the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

The experience beads of Ming Yu Gong did not reach the limit directly, but were reset to zero.

This means that from now on, Cao Rui only needs to continue taking the Fire Lotus Pill to improve his cultivation to the peak of the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage. In theory, he can naturally break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage like the ancient cultivators.

After being in seclusion for two hundred days, Cao Rui was ready to get up and walk around to learn about the situation in the outside world.

Cao Rui found Ye Yunyin who was in seclusion on the side.

Although Ye Yunyin was also in seclusion and practicing hard, he would often come forward to deal with market affairs and had contacts with the sect, so he naturally knew more than Cao Rui.

First of all, the income from the market last year unexpectedly reached 40,000 spirit stones.

Excluding the 10,000 spirit stones that were kept for the treasury of the market town as daily funds and offerings from the monks in the market town, the remaining 30,000 spirit stones were divided equally between the sect and Cao Rui.

Cao Rui got 15,000 spirit stones.

It just so happened that the spirit stones that Cao Rui had stored over the past two hundred days were almost used up. The fifteen thousand spirit stones filled the empty storage bag, which came at a very timely moment.

Then there was good news from within the sect. Among the four true disciples who had taken the foundation-building pill, Feng Qingyun and Liu Shuran were both promoted to the foundation-building stage.

The number of foundation-building cultivators of the Spirit Beast Sect finally reached double digits, ten people!

"Master Cao, you don't have to be discouraged. Next time we have Foundation Establishment Pills, the sect will give them to you first."

"There are plenty of opportunities to build a foundation." Ye Yunyin spoke to comfort Cao Rui.

He thought that Cao Rui had been in seclusion for the past six months trying to build his foundation, but he failed.

Cao Rui was not angry and did not explain: "Elder Ye, I'll have to trouble you to continue to take care of the market. I have to continue to retreat for a while."

"No problem." Ye Yunyin nodded in response.

Cao Rui went to Danlingbao Pavilion, paid a sum of spirit stones, and agreed to continue to send him spiritual medicine regularly.

He then returned to the alchemy room and continued his retreat.
