Volume 7: The Strongest Four Realms Chapter 28 Perfect Sublimation
In the Soul Washing Pool, spiritual energy flourished and spiritual power surged, constantly hitting Lu Qingshan like a wave.
Lu Qingshan sat cross-legged in the pool, and the water formed by liquefied spiritual power covered his chest.
The spiritual fluid was brilliant, like nectar, washing his limbs, bones and pores all over his body.
However, because the difference in concentration between the spiritual power in his body and the spiritual power in the spiritual cleansing pool was too great, a strong and irresistible spiritual pressure was formed, which pressed his skin so hard that it turned red, caused his blood vessels to dilate and bulge, and a sharp pain came over him.
Lu Qingshan was enduring such severe pain, but his body remained motionless.
Soon, a rumbling sound like thunder came from his body.
Sizzle!
The sound of his meridians being overwhelmed made Lu Qingshan tremble slightly.
As expected, it was too much of a stretch for someone with Qi Refining skills to practice in the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
Lu Qingshan said in his heart.
The next moment, he silently practiced the Taoist method of "Guixu Sutra" and began to refine the violent spiritual energy that surged into his body.
Since it's too difficult to practice Qi Refining in the Spirit Washing Pool, then just break through to the Foundation Establishment stage!
Lu Qingshan silently recited the mantra of Guixu Sutra, and a faint glimpse of a crimson color could be seen on his body.
That's because at this moment, blood was oozing out of his whole body.
But the sticky spiritual fluid continued to flow towards him.
The spiritual pressure was extremely terrifying, and Lu Qingshan suffered great pain, but his gains were equally huge.
As the violent spiritual energy in his body was continuously refined into spiritual power, Lu Qingshan's momentum was also constantly rising.
He could clearly feel that his strength was growing and his cultivation was slowly recovering.
The spiritual power in Dantian became more and more powerful.
Not long after, he, who had already reached the peak of Qi Refining, launched a swift attack towards the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The divine light within his dantian was dim, as if covered by a layer of dust. The peak Nascent Soul with its eyes tightly closed, at this moment, finally began to emit a very light, jade-like luster.
The spiritual energy from the Soul Washing Pool is continuously flowing into the Nascent Soul.
…
Time passes silently.
Several great monks who were guarding the Soul Washing Pool were in meditation beside the pool as usual.
Adjacent to the Soul Washing Pond, the spiritual energy is incomparably richer than that of the outside world. They can achieve twice the result with half the effort by entering into meditation and practicing in such an environment. This is one of the hidden benefits of guarding the Soul Washing Pond.
Ming Hou, who had the highest level of cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.
Afterwards, the other three Void Refining cultivators also opened their eyes one after another, and looked in the same direction at the same time.
That was Lu Qingshan in the Soul Washing Pool.
There was a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"It's been less than a day, and he has successfully broken through to the foundation-building stage." Jin Xing exclaimed in amazement.
"He should be just one step away from building the foundation. With the spiritual power of the Spirit Washing Pond, he will successfully complete the breakthrough." Ming Hou retracted his gaze and said lightly.
“This kid…” Lian Gang locked his eyes on the figure in the Spirit Washing Pool and was slightly startled. “He’s really brave. He walked in right after breaking through the realm.”
It turned out that after advancing to the foundation-building stage, Lu Qingshan immediately stood up, took a few steps into the Spirit Washing Pool, and then sat down cross-legged.
Previously, the water level of the Soul Washing Pool was above Lu Qingshan’s chest, but now it had reached his neck.
The thick spiritual mist completely engulfed his body.
…
After advancing to the foundation-building stage, the spiritual power in his body had become much stronger. The concentration of spiritual energy at the edge of the Spirit Washing Pool had brought him pressure that he no longer wished for.
So Lu Qingshan stood up and took a few steps towards the core of the Spirit Washing Pool. He stopped only when he felt the terrifying pressure and found it difficult to breathe.
This concentration of spiritual energy is the limit of his current tolerance.
Although one has to endure great pain, at the same time, under such circumstances, the speed of refining spiritual energy is also the fastest.
As for the feeling of pain, after forcibly using the Zhentian Technique many times in a row, it seems that he has gradually become accustomed to it?
The human race's adaptability is truly terrifying.
Under the infusion of spiritual power, Lu Qingshan felt that he was having difficulty taking a step forward.
However, the experience value of "Guixu Sutra" on the panel is increasing rapidly.
He had already perfected the Guixu Sutra a long time ago, and his understanding of the Guixu Sutra was familiar to him. When he practiced it again, he had no obstacles at all.
The bottlenecks that cultivators encounter in their practice, such as the middle, late, and perfect stages, no longer exist for him.
After rebuilding his foundation in Taoism, there was only one step left for him to improve his cultivation - absorbing and refining spiritual energy.
In the Soul Washing Pool, this step has also been simplified to the extreme.
Simplify it to the step of refining.
The technique kept running, and Lu Qingshan's spiritual energy was boiling.
Spiritual energy flowed through the meridians, and bursts of thunderous sounds were heard, which was extremely terrifying.
The next moment, Lu Qingshan was a little surprised.
He originally thought that rebuilding his foundation would only cause changes in the Qi Refining Stage by changing the technique.
However, he did not expect that in the process of rebuilding the foundation-building realm, he discovered that the change also existed.
He clearly felt that the purity and flow speed of the spiritual power in his meridians were several points faster than before.
The difference between a flawed foundation and a flawless foundation does have far-reaching consequences!
Lu Qingshan quickly calmed down and continued to practice the Guixu Sutra, hoping to take himself to a higher level.
However, he had already cultivated to the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishment Stage before. Although he had amazingly improved a little bit during his cultivation this time, it was obviously impossible for him to undergo further transformation.
"This Daoji was really cut right." Lu Qingshan murmured.
No matter what, it is a miracle that he can still make further progress after having already reached the perfect foundation-building stage.
The closer you get to the limit, the harder it is to make further progress.
He believed that if his current self were to meet his Foundation Establishment level self four years ago, he would be able to defeat him easily.
"Then when I cultivate to the Golden Core Stage again, I will definitely be able to make further progress," Lu Qingshan felt yearning and expectation in his heart, "When I recover to the Nascent Soul Stage, how much stronger will I be than before?"
A spiritual light flickered above the Nascent Soul, and the spiritual power in the meridians continuously flowed into the Dantian, washing the Nascent Soul whose divine light was dim.
Rebuilding the foundation of the Tao is not easy and cannot be done in one step.
Even with a secret place for cultivation like the Spirit Washing Pool, it would still take several days or even dozens of days to complete the foundation-building and reconstruction.
…
"This kid is really enduring." Wu Zhenshan opened his eyes again and found that Lu Qingshan's body was still motionless. There was a bit more appreciation in his voice.
Through the hazy spiritual mist, he could see that Lu Qingshan's blood vessels were bulging and his whole body was red. It was obvious that practicing in the Spirit Cleansing Pool was a huge price to pay for Lu Qingshan.
I just didn't expect that he could persist like this without changing his expression.
Just as he finished speaking, in front of Wu Zhenshan's increasingly surprised gaze, a sound of thunder suddenly came from Lu Qingshan's body, and his momentum surged again.
Then, Lu Qingshan stood up and walked a few steps deeper into the Spirit Washing Pool.
"Another breakthrough?" Wu Zhenshan was a little dumbfounded.
The aura exuded by Lu Qingshan at this time had already turned into the middle stage of foundation building.
You know, it’s been less than three days since Lu Qingshan entered the Spirit Washing Pool to practice?
For some reason, Wu Zhenshan, who witnessed this scene with his own eyes, suddenly had an idea in his mind, and this idea caused his emotions to suddenly rise.
His eyes were fixed on Lu Qingshan's figure in the Soul Washing Pool.
This male cultivator, who has only Qi Refining skills but is qualified to practice in the Spirit Washing Pool, seems to be quite extraordinary.
…
In the Soul Washing Pool, there was a faint and astonishing wave spreading out.
After taking a few steps deeper into the Spirit Washing Pool, the spiritual liquid had now completely submerged Lu Qingshan.
His body was red, and the blood that seeped out spread out in the spiritual fluid and faded away.
The spiritual energy washed over every part of his body without any omission.
Lu Qingshan practiced Taoism, constantly refining the violent spiritual energy running rampant in his body, and made a breakthrough in his cultivation.
boom!
With the sound of a silver bottle breaking, his lost cultivation once again flowed back.
Late stage of foundation building.
Lu Qingshan stood up again, his eyes cast towards the place where the waterfall fell which was still very far away, without saying a word, he took firm steps forward in the Soul Washing Pool.
Click, click.
The spiritual pressure increased again, and the bones in the body made crackling sounds that were only caused by bearing heavy pressure.
Lu Qingshan didn't care and was like an old monk in meditation.
He has been practicing at a spiritual pressure level that is just at the limit of his ability to withstand.
This position can bring him tremendous pressure, but it will not be too much for him to bear.
The reason why it can reach such an extreme is thanks to [Seeing God Indestructible].
Having opened up the 360 acupoints in his body, he had an almost precise perception of his own strength and knew clearly when his limits were.
The spiritual pressure in the Soul Washing Pool becomes more terrifying the deeper it goes. If he didn't know his own endurance very well, and used this method of practicing under extreme pressure, he would easily go too far and injure his meridians.
But even so, there were still many thin and shallow scars on Lu Qingshan's body.
Although his body was covered with wounds, the aura in his body was rising steadily .
Waves of devouring power spread out, savagely devouring the violent spiritual energy.
Lines of pure spiritual energy merged into the Nascent Soul, whose divine light was gradually recovering.
When Lu Qingshan breathed, spiritual energy like the mist of immortal air continued to flow in and out of his mouth and nose.
The air he exhaled was all spiritual energy. One could imagine how abundant the spiritual energy in his body was at this moment.
At this moment, Lu Qingshan looked more like a spirit seed than a sword seed.
Boom boom boom!
There was a loud tremor, and thunder louder than before was heard.
Lu Qingshan's cultivation reached a new level.
The peak of foundation building!
Wuzhen Mountain's breathing became heavy.
He began to pay attention to Lu Qingshan's progress in cultivation since Lu Qingshan entered the middle stage of foundation building.
Then, he witnessed with his own eyes that in less than ten days, Lu Qingshan completed the leap from the middle stage of foundation building to the peak stage of foundation building.
Watching Lu Qingshan take a few steps towards the core of the Spirit Washing Pool again.
Wu Zhenshan was slightly moved, "It's impossible that the advancement to the Golden Core stage can be so smooth, this is a great realm advancement..."
Lu Qingshan calmly immersed himself completely in the Soul Washing Pool, his chest rising and falling slightly, and the thundering sound in his body seemed to never stop.
His meridians were already surrounded by a layer of mysterious light, glowing brightly.
As the meridians are constantly tempered by the enormous spiritual pressure, they become increasingly tougher.
The spiritual energy is surging and endless.
Over the next few days, the spiritual energy gathered in Lu Qingshan's body became increasingly powerful, and his momentum continued to rise.
Three days later, which was even less time than the time it took to go from the late stage of foundation building to the peak of foundation building, Lu Qingshan's aura suddenly exploded and increased exponentially.
"I actually broke through to the Golden Core stage just like that..." Wu Zhenshan groaned.
As a person who has reached the level of Lianxu cultivation, he naturally knows that this kind of fluctuation is the momentum of a breakthrough to the Golden Core stage.
After a few more days, a fierce wave spread out, and the surging momentum in Lu Qingshan's body gradually stabilized.
That is the aura of the Golden Core Realm.
Immediately, Lu Qingshan, who had completed the breakthrough, suddenly opened his eyes.
There was a gleam of light in that look.
Eighteen days passed, from the tenth level of Qi Refining to the breakthrough of Golden Elixir.
Apart from a secret place like the Spirit Washing Pool, where else could he recover his cultivation at such a terrifying speed?
With his average spiritual aptitude, his efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy was extremely low.
But in an environment like the Spirit Washing Pool, you don't need to actively absorb spiritual energy. The spiritual energy will rush into your body impatiently.
All you have to worry about is that your refining speed isn't fast enough and you'll be blown up by the continuous influx of spiritual energy.
But with the help of the indestructible God and the power of Taoism, Lu Qingshan controlled the speed of refining his spiritual energy to an extreme level, thus achieving such a terrifying progress in cultivation.
But this is just the beginning.
The next Jindan realm and Yuanying realm are the highlights!
Lu Qingshan did not slack off, nor was he complacent.
He continued to move forward in the Soul Washing Pool, and his body gradually sank to the bottom of the pool.
He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to rebuild his Taoist foundation to further elevate his already peak Golden Core Realm and reach the true extreme.
As the spiritual pressure increased again, Lu Qingshan's face became increasingly solemn as he felt the pressure on his body.
He did not use his spiritual power to resist the spiritual pressure, because if he did so, the path for the spiritual energy to flow into his body would also be blocked, and the meaning of practicing in the Spirit Washing Pool would be lost.
The bloodstains on his body became more and more glaring.
"Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, the Tao follows nature..." Lu Qingshan recited the mantra silently.
Of course, he was not going down the mountain, he was practicing the Daozang skills.
A huge devouring force was generated in his body. The brutal and ownerless spiritual energy in his body was simply unable to resist this overbearing devouring force, and it merged into Lu Qingshan's Nascent Soul at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The aura emanating from Lu Qingshan became increasingly powerful.
The power of Taoism was once again demonstrated.
Time passed quickly at the bottom of the Soul Washing Pool.
Ten days later.
Circles of ripples spread out in all directions with Lu Qingshan's body as the center, and the aura emanating from his body suddenly became violent.
This state is a manifestation of improved cultivation.
Lu Qingshan's expression changed, and the devouring power in his body increased once again to the limit.
Violent spiritual power exploded from his body.
Bang bang.
The roar lasted for two hours.
The moment the roar subsided, Lu Qingshan's cultivation exploded.
Middle stage of golden elixir!
He was full of vigor and vitality, and he went in and out of the Spirit Cleansing Pool again and again, and his cultivation level also increased again and again.
Fifteen days later, the late stage of Jindan!
Twenty days later, the peak of the golden elixir!
From the initial Nascent Soul stage, there is only this last step left to rebuild the foundation of Taoism.
An aura of cultivation that was far superior to his previous level emanated from him silently.
This is the true ultimate golden elixir.
There was a strange light in Lu Qingshan's eyes and his breathing became slightly rapid.
The spiritual power in his body possessed a vitality and strength that he could not describe, allowing a faint sense of Taoism to emerge in his every move.
This is the power of perfect sublimation that only a person with a flawless foundation of Taoism can possess.
If there is any flaw, even just a tiny bit, it would be a huge mistake and it would be impossible to possess the power of perfect sublimation.
It is also because of the existence of this power that, although he is only at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, he is already infinitely close to the core of the Spirit Washing Pool.
Once you enter the core, you can try to extract the energy hidden in it and accumulated in the Spirit Washing Pool for many years.
Of course, at this point, the spiritual pressure you endure if you take another step forward will increase by dozens of times, making it extremely difficult.
However, Lu Qingshan was confident.
Because he still has the last level of cultivation to recover.
Nascent Soul Realm!
