There is no future for menial disciples? I draw talismans to achieve immortality

Chapter 284 Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Foundation Building

In two days, Ye Shanhu refined two batches of foundation-building pills.

One furnace produced five pills, and another furnace produced four pills, for a total of nine Foundation Establishment Pills.

It turned out that there was still one in his hand. At this time, Xu Changshou had a total of ten Foundation Establishment Pills.

Two days later, Xu Changshou's talisman was also drawn. During these days, Xu Changshou and Ye Shanhu worked day and night.

After the talisman was drawn, Ye Shanhu left. Before leaving, she said she would come back in a year.

After Ye Shanhu left, Xu Changshou felt empty inside. After being with her for several days, he became somewhat dependent on her.

Soon, Xu Changshou put aside all distractions and continued to practice, preparing to break through to the middle stage of foundation building.

Time passes.

One year, two years, three years...

Five years later, one day.

Xu Changshou, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly felt his body shake violently, and the spiritual energy in his dantian seemed to boil.

Xu Changshou was ecstatic upon seeing this, knowing that he was about to make a breakthrough.

In the Dantian, endless golden light condensed into a drop of golden liquid.

At this time, a total of four drops of foundation-building true liquid condensed in Xu Changshou's dantian. The foundation-building true liquid was as round as beads, slowly rotating in the dantian, and did not blend with each other.

"I have finally reached the middle stage of foundation building."

Xu Changshou opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

He calculated the time with his fingers and found that nearly sixteen years had passed since he had just established his foundation.

This year, Xu Changshou was forty-three years old.

Next, condensing eight more drops of foundation-building true liquid will allow the foundation to be fully built. If calculated at the rate of one drop of foundation-building true liquid every five years, it will take another forty years.

At that time, Xu Changshou was only eighty-three years old. He had plenty of time to reach the Foundation Establishment stage before turning a hundred years old.

But the problem is that the speed of cultivation is definitely slower than actually imagined.

For example, in order to cultivate to the middle stage of foundation building, Xu Changshou planned to use one drop of foundation building true liquid every five years, and it would take fifteen years to cultivate to the middle stage of foundation building. However, in fact, it took him sixteen years.

Then forty years is definitely not enough, even if we add another three years, it will be forty-three years.

In other words, the actual age at which one can cultivate to the great perfection of foundation building may be eighty-six years old.

There is really not enough time at this time.

Because it takes time to reach the Golden Core Realm, the fastest is three years, the slowest is ten years, and even slower is twenty years.

Regardless of whether he has enough time or not, according to Xu Changshou's calculations, he has the opportunity to break through to the Golden Elixir Avenue.

Since we have the opportunity, we must practice well.

Xu Changshou calculated his tasks again. At this time, seven years had passed since he handed in the ten-year task. When he handed in the task, he owed three years of tasks, which meant that it was time for him to hand in the task again.

"Damn mission."

Xu Changshou couldn't help but complain, feeling like he had just completed a task and it was time to complete another one.

Time flies so fast, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

However, Xu Changshou was not in a hurry. It would not be a problem to delay the task given by the ancestor for a few years. Moreover, he still had two thousand flying sword talismans in his hand, which was enough to complete the task for three years.

In recent years, Ye Shanhu has come here once a year, and every time she comes, she stays at Xu Changshou's place for a few days.

She knew that Xu Changshou was devoted to Taoism, so she did not pester him too much and was very sensible.

Ye Shanhu's sense of propriety made Xu Changshou feel very comfortable. If Ye Shanhu came to him frequently while he was practicing, it would definitely delay his progress.

Xu Changshou stood up, looked at the dust in the yard, waved his hand, and suddenly a gust of wind blew up, blowing the room clean.

After entering the middle stage of foundation building, Xu Changshou discovered some differences. At this time, the radius of his spiritual consciousness extended to five meters.

Many people in the early stage of foundation building cannot defeat those in the middle stage of foundation building in a fight. This is directly related to the radius of extension of spiritual consciousness.

The tentacles of spiritual consciousness in the early stage of foundation building can only extend three meters, which means that the combat radius of spiritual consciousness is only three meters.

For cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building, the combat radius of their spiritual consciousness is five meters.

The spiritual consciousness can control one's flying sword and magic weapon to attack, which is a manifestation of the strongest combat power of a foundation-building cultivator.

If you use a flying sword to attack a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, and you are only in the early stage of foundation building, then before your flying sword can reach the opponent, someone else's flying sword will arrive first.

Therefore, although there is not much difference in spiritual energy between the cultivator who condensed three drops of foundation-building true liquid and the cultivator who condensed four drops of foundation-building true liquid, when they fight, the cultivator who condensed four drops of foundation-building true liquid has an absolute advantage.

"Xiao Jin, Xiao Hei, come out!"

Xu Changshou had an idea and called Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei.

At the same time, he reached out and patted the spirit storage bag, and Xiao Jin jumped out, but he did not see Xiao Hei.

Xu Changshou frowned and probed his spiritual sense into the soul storage bag, but found that Xiao Hei was sleeping soundly at this time.

Xiao Hei's breathing is rhythmic while he is sleeping, and there is something mysterious between each breath.

Xu Changshou looked carefully and found that Xiao Hei was not asleep, but was in a state of retreat and cultivation like a human.

It seems as if some kind of transformation is about to take place.

Xu Changshou immediately understood that Xiao Hei was most likely going to break through.

Two years ago, Xiao Jin broke through to the middle stage of the Yellow Grade Little Demon, but Xiao Hei has yet to break through.

In the past few years, Xiao Hei has eaten too much monster meat. The mountain of monster meat in Xu Changshou's storage bag has almost been eaten up by Xiao Hei.

These monster meats are all very nutritious.

After eating so much, it would be unfair if Xiao Hei didn’t break through.

Through observation over the past few years, Xu Changshou discovered that Xiao Hei's talent was far inferior to Xiao Jin's.

In the past few years, Xiao Jin has been playing every day. It seems that he has not practiced much, but he can easily break through to the intermediate level of yellow-level demon.

As for Xiao Hei, since returning from the Demon Fairy Corridor, he has been devouring various kinds of demon meat and absorbing endless energy to temper his body. Despite his efforts, he is not as fast as Xiao Jin in cultivation.

"Not bad!"

Xu Changshou nodded with satisfaction.

After a few years, he made a breakthrough, Xiao Jin made a breakthrough, and Xiao Hei was about to make a breakthrough.

His overall strength has been improved.

Oh, and there’s also red clothes.

"Red, come out!"

Xu Changshou called out, and a red figure floated out from the Soul Tower.

"Your servant greets the master." After the woman in red came out, she bowed respectfully to Xu Changshou.

Xu Changshou nodded slightly: "Hongyi, how many wandering souls do you have now? How many of them have broken through the ghost expansion realm?"

In recent years, the Soul Tower has been attracting wandering ghosts all the time, and wandering souls enter the third floor of the Soul Tower almost every day.

Xu Changshou knew that his army of wandering souls must have increased, but he didn't know how much.

"Reporting to the master, the current army of wandering souls is 150,000 strong."

"so much."

Xu Changshou was overjoyed. His army of wandering souls had grown by another 20,000. At this rate of development, his army of wandering souls would sooner or later grow into a million-strong army.

The red-clothed man continued, "Now there are two more ghost bulges on the second floor. I now have five great ghost bulges under my command."

"Really? That's great. Let him come out and let me take a look."

"Yes!"

"Wait for you to come out."

At the command of the man in red, five figures appeared in front of Xu Changshou and saluted him one after another.

"Bai Yulan greets His Majesty."

"Sima Dao greets His Majesty."

"Xue Wujiu pays his respects to His Majesty."

"Tong Huamei pays homage to His Majesty."

"Liu Qingshuang pays homage to His Majesty."

"No gift."

Xu Changshou glanced at the five people and nodded slightly.

The two new ghosts both look like women.

One of them is a woman with picturesque features, and the other is a girl with a slender waist.

"Good, good, very good, very good! Hahaha!"

Looking at Xiao Jin, then at Hongyi and the five ghosts, Xu Changshou laughed out loud.

Along the way, his team has gradually become stronger.

Who could have imagined that the cowherd boy would gradually develop such a terrifying background.

With his current foundation, he has no need to fear anyone below the Golden Core stage.
