The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Chapter 442: Middle Stage of Jindan

The sudden appearance of the God Transformation Ancestor made the guilty Elder He stutter.

"We, we, in..."

Qu Zhiyun suddenly interrupted with a shy look on her face: "Ancestor, we are just chatting casually."

The God Transformation Patriarch suddenly glanced at the Trial Tower and casually praised, "This disciple is not bad. He has persisted for so long and still hasn't come out."

After saying that, he gave the two of them a meaningful look and said, "Okay, you guys continue chatting."

Then he disappeared in a flash.

In fact, the ancestor Huashen had misunderstood and thought that there were still disciples undergoing trials in the tower, so Elder He had to stay here.

Qu Zhiyun and Elder He have an ambiguous relationship, so they came here to accompany Elder He to guard the tower.

But Elder He and Qu Zhiyun, who felt guilty, thought that the Ancestor Huashen already knew that they had allowed outsiders to enter the tower for the trial. The two looked at each other and felt a little uneasy.

Elder He hesitated for a moment and said, "How about letting your disciple come out? Today's trial ends here."

What if the God Transformation Patriarch was too lazy to intervene and instead informed the Valley Master? He had to leave here quickly before the Valley Master arrived. Slow down and things will be resolved.

Qu Zhiyun immediately stopped him, "No, the time is too short, the trial will have no effect, wait a little longer."

Xiao Han spent two million spirit stones, and she couldn't let these spirit stones go to waste.

The ancestors were gone, so it would be better if he asked the Valley Master to handle it. Anyway, the Valley Master was soft-hearted, and after he cried and complained, he would not be able to bear to punish him.

At this time, Xiao Han in the trial tower had no idea that the two people outside were frightened for no reason because of the passing of the God Transformation Ancestor.

She was now covered in wounds from the endless attacks of the phantom beasts and was on the verge of collapse.

The phantom beast is not a real monster and does not feel pain. It will only disappear when its attack power reaches a certain level.

But she was different. Except for her head which was protected by key armor, and her chest and abdomen which were protected by inner armor, her limbs were all torn and bleeding.

After she killed two more phantom beasts and before the new phantom beast appeared, she hurriedly cast a rejuvenation spell on herself to ease the severe pain in her limbs a little.

The next moment, before the phantom beast pounced on her, she protected herself with a high-defense spiritual shield and then took a big gulp of spiritual liquid.

Then, he used the high-defense spiritual shield as the main weapon, supplemented by attack. In this way, the degree of injury was greatly alleviated.

However, the spiritual shield with high defense draws a lot of spiritual power, and her spiritual power is consumed very quickly.

She wanted to drink more spiritual fluid to replenish her rapidly depleting spiritual energy, but she didn't even have the chance. As her attacks decreased, the phantom beasts would only increase in number instead of disappearing, leaving her with no choice but to desperately defend herself.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Han felt that the spiritual power in her body was almost exhausted, and she was being besieged by six phantom beasts.

It's over. This strategy of defending without attacking has failed even more. I hope she won't be able to escape today.

Seeing that the spiritual shield covering her entire body was in danger and was about to be broken, she had no spiritual power left to draw from.

With a loud shout, she injected the last bit of her spiritual power into the Kun Ring, which suddenly grew larger and pushed away the phantom beasts surrounding her.

Taking advantage of this brief gap, she took out the Trial Tower teleportation talisman, and was finally teleported out of the Trial Tower when the phantom beast pounced on her.

Xiao Han's miserable appearance with tattered clothes and torn limbs startled Elder He and Qu Zhiyun who were in a stalemate.

However, the two of them quickly calmed down. After all, nine out of ten disciples who entered the Trial Tower would end up like this.

Qu Zhiyun could tell at a glance that Xiao Han's spiritual power was exhausted. Without saying a word, she wrapped Xiao Han with her spiritual power and flew away.

Elder He looked around like a thief, sensed something, and then flew away in a hurry.

After returning to her cave, Qu Zhiyun checked Xiao Han and found that they were only minor injuries, so she felt relieved.

He performed some rejuvenation magic on Xiao Han and sprinkled some flesh-growing powder on her wounds before letting her go to her own training room to meditate and recover.

The pain on his skin and flesh, coupled with the pain caused by the drying up of his spiritual energy, made Xiao Han unable to even change his tattered clothes. He directly drank half a bottle of spiritual liquid and began to meditate to refine and absorb it.

Perhaps it was because he had never experienced such a battle to the point of exhaustion of spiritual power, or perhaps it was because this kind of life-and-death trial could really stimulate people's potential. In short, after a few days, Xiao Han easily crossed the barrier from the early to middle stage of Jindan.

Sitting in the training room, Xiao Han slowly calmed down from her ecstasy, and then she thought of a question: if she replenished the five spiritual roots now, would it be easier to break through this realm barrier in the future?

The reason why the five spiritual roots were called useless spiritual roots in the early stage was that the cultivators with this kind of spiritual roots were slow in refining spiritual energy in the early stage, and because the spiritual roots were numerous and complex, the barriers to upgrading were more difficult to break through.

But because of the Spirit Cleansing Pill, her four spiritual roots were purified to the maximum value. If she could make up the five spiritual roots and raise the water spiritual root to the maximum value, then in her future cultivation, in addition to spending more time accumulating spiritual energy, the upgrade barriers would definitely be easier to break through.

Thinking of this, Xiao Han immediately rushed out of the training room.

It was already the early morning of the sixth day, and Qu Zhiyun was trimming the branches of the spiritual flowers around her cave.

Xiao Han rushed over and asked anxiously, "Sister Yun, if you're not a cultivator with five spiritual roots, and you use natural treasures to make up for the missing spiritual roots, how pure are the spiritual roots you added later? Can you cleanse and purify them?"

Qu Zhiyun said, "If the spiritual roots you replenish later in life are all of very good quality, it is possible to obtain high-quality spiritual roots. However, this situation is extremely rare and very difficult to obtain."

After a pause, she continued, "As for the spiritual cleansing and purification, how do you cleanse the spiritual roots? They're not dirty things. I've never heard of it."

Xiao Han suddenly remembered that the Soul Cleansing Pill in the fairy mountain of the small world was restored by the alchemy elder of the Juxian Sect based on the ancient recipe.

In other words, either there is no such ancient recipe passed down in Yuantian Continent, or no one has successfully restored this ancient recipe, resulting in the Xiling Pill never appearing on the market.

Xiao Han suddenly felt that it was fair. The cultivation world within the Small World's Immortal Mountain might not be comparable to that of the Yuantian Continent in many respects. But that was simply due to the mountain's lack of resources and the relatively limited number of inheritances.

In terms of talent, there are also smart people in the small world.

There was no cleansing elixir here, so she would try her best to collect enough natural treasures needed to replenish the water spiritual roots.

If she is lucky enough to generate the full purity of the water spirit roots she has replenished, then she will have nothing to worry about in the future, as she will definitely have a place among the high-level cultivators.
