Chapter 242 Sprouting
After some communication, the others said goodbye and left. Qingyang closed the formation outside and looked back at the small courtyard where he would accompany himself through his life as a disciple of the errand school. A smile appeared on his face. Compared with Cui Yu'an, Fang Yunshan, Tong Yan and others, his status as a errand disciple was indeed lower, but so what? He would catch up with them sooner or later.
After sighing for a while, Qingyang returned to the quiet room, tidied the room simply, and then sat cross-legged and began his retreat in the errand school.
In fact, it can't be completely regarded as retreat and hard practice. Now Qingyang can't practice fasting, and still needs to replenish food regularly. In addition to meditating and practicing every day, he has to cook by himself when he is hungry, and wash his clothes when they are dirty. But compared with the days of being a casual cultivator, it is much easier. He doesn't have to worry about other things, and he only needs to practice with one mind.
At the beginning of every month, Qingyang also has to go out to the main hall of the errand school to collect the daily necessities he needs. Apart from that, he almost never goes out. Qingyang's few friends in Qingfeng Hall didn't bother him. Lu Dingshan and Tian Shengcai seemed to be in seclusion, and Muleng and Sang Qinglan didn't know what tasks they had taken and were not seen all day.
In the blink of an eye, more than two months had passed. Qingyang's cultivation had made great progress. He had already reached the top of the middle stage of Kaimai Realm. He was only one step away from breaking through to the late stage of Kaimai Realm. It was only because of the bottleneck that he had not broken through to the seventh level of Kaimai Realm.
However, Qingyang was not in a hurry. He had practiced steadily for half a month and felt that his cultivation was almost consolidated. He was confident in his heart, so he took out five spirit stones and held them in his hands, then operated the Changsheng Jue, trying to break through the bottleneck of the late stage of Kaimai Realm.
Perhaps Qingyang was well prepared, perhaps the environment of Qingfeng Hall was really suitable for cultivation, or perhaps it was luxurious enough to use spirit stones to break through directly. In short, Qingyang only took two hours to successfully break through to the seventh level of Kaimai Realm without any pause in the middle.
Feeling the surging true energy in his body, Qingyang couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He finally reached this step. Although the late stage of Kaimai Realm is not very good among cultivators, if it is placed in the secular world, I am afraid that those top masters in the world will no longer be his opponents.
Of course, Kaimai Realm is still the bottom among cultivators. Let alone other things, at least 70% to 80% of the people in this miscellaneous courtyard are stronger than him. This cultivation is not worth being proud of. In the future, improving cultivation will still be his main task.
During this period of time, Qingyang did not relax his practice of Ningshen Jue. The effect of three months is not particularly obvious, but Qingyang can feel that his Yuanshen seems to be much stronger, and his mind is more powerful than that of the cultivators of the same level. Not only that, even when encountering bottlenecks, it is easier to break through than others, and the effect is still very obvious.
With a strong mind, Qingyang tried to control the magic weapon with his mind. Now he can skillfully control the low-grade magic weapon silver needle and can produce the needle silently. If the enemy does not release the mind in advance, it is difficult to discover Qingyang's sneak attack.
As for controlling other magic tools with divine thoughts, Qingyang is not able to do it yet. For example, the Red Flame Sword, Qingyang can only lift half of it with divine thoughts, and cannot fully drive it. It seems that in order to fully drive the magic tool, at least the cultivation must be raised to the eighth or ninth level of the Kaimai Realm. As for the proficient use of magic tools and long-range attacks, it is necessary to reach the Qi Refining Stage.
Since learning the Concentration Technique, Qingyang has been able to cast the spell of controlling spirit insects more and more easily. In the past, he often had to cast it several times in a row before he could succeed once, wasting a lot of blood and energy, making himself dizzy and unable to recover for a long time.
However, later, because of frequent practice of the Concentration Technique, Qingyang's divine thoughts became much stronger than before. Now it is much easier to cast the spell of controlling spirit insects, and the success rate is getting higher and higher. On average, he can succeed once every two times.
Since Qingyang got the method of controlling spirit insects in Yuling City, nearly half a year has passed. He casts it every few days, and now he has succeeded more than 30 times, and the effect is still very obvious. Now Qingyang could clearly feel that the queen bee of the alcoholic bee was much closer to him, and there was a feeling of connection between them. Qingyang could even sense that the queen bee of the alcoholic bee seemed to be about to wake up.
Thinking of this, Qingyang flashed into the space of the Drunken Immortal Gourd again. Qingyang first went to see the spiritual herbs and grains he had planted around. From the time he first arrived in Yuling City and planted the seeds to now, half a year had passed, and the spiritual herbs and grains had grown taller, almost two inches high.
It was not possible to find good spiritual herbs seeds in Yuling City, and Qingyang did not have many spiritual stones at that time. In addition to the spiritual grains, the rest were some common spiritual herbs seeds, mainly common spiritual herbs for refining Kaimai Realm and Qi Refining Stage elixirs.
The growth period of spiritual herbs and grains is generally very long, and it often takes decades or hundreds of years to grow before they can be used. Compared with the entire growth period of spiritual herbs, the spiritual herbs and grains planted by Qingyang are still in the juvenile stage, and it is still early to harvest, so there is no rush.
The effect of the jade spirit marrow is quite good. After soaking in the jade spirit marrow, the four seeds regained vitality and sprouted not long after being planted. Now you can see the sharp buds emerging from the soil. These four seeds are not easy to come by. The level must be higher than those spiritual herbs and spiritual grains. The growth rate is also slow. In a few months, only a sharp bud has grown. It is not clear what kind it is for the time being.
Qingyang spent a lot of money for these seeds. Apart from other things, there are not many cultivators in the entire Jiuzhou Continent who can take out the small piece of jade spirit marrow. I hope that when these seeds grow up in the future, I will not be too disappointed.
The whole space of the Drunken Immortal Gourd is full of vitality and intoxicating. After looking at the spiritual field, Qingyang raised his foot and came to the bottom of the wine pavilion. Looking up at the beehive above, except for the queen bee who was still sleeping inside, the other six alcoholic bees were constantly flying around the beehive.
The six alcoholic bees had woken up long ago, and without exception, they evolved into purple-backed alcoholic bees. Such spiritual insects are comparable to Qi training cultivators. Qingyang will have another killer in the future. Perhaps because the queen bee gradually gained Qingyang's control, they became closer to Qingyang.
According to convention, Qingyang first took the six alcoholic bees out of the Drunken Immortal Gourd, took the queen bee of the alcoholic bees out of the beehive, and began to use the method of controlling spiritual insects again.
