07 Everything Is Calculated

The two days of rest passed quickly. Qin Shimeng and Liang Xiaorou were in seclusion and could not see them, but Ye Yong had Wu Xue and Hua Ningyan to tease and bully, so he was not lonely. To put it bluntly, even if Wu Xue and Hua Ningyan are in retreat, and Xia Shiqi can play around, they can always find a way to relieve their boredom.

After the break, it was time to take medicine and practice again. Ye Yong finished instructing Wu Xue and Hua Ningyan on their practice matters and returned to the retreat room to sit down cross-legged.

There is only one month left for the sect competition. In the plot of the novel, he will confront Long Tian at the last moment. Whether this is the case in reality, Ye Yongyong doesn't know, but there is nothing wrong with dealing with it cautiously. He has decided for himself A small goal, that is, six layers of stones in one month.

Breaking through from the fourth level to the sixth level in one month is actually very difficult. Even if ordinary monks don't pay attention to the foundation and have massive resources, they can't break through just because they want to. First of all, the speed of the body's absorption and transformation of spiritual power is a problem. Secondly, there is the saying that there is a bottleneck in cultivation. It's not impossible to force a breakthrough, but it will leave a lot of hidden problems. Cultivation is like building a building, which is built layer by layer. If you want to build a high building, the bottom part must be stable. Even if it is not very strong, at least there must be no cracks or holes, otherwise there will be a risk of the building collapsing.

Ye Yong is a divine body. There is no bottleneck at all at the moment. The foundation cannot be more stable. There is only one reason for the slow progress from beginning to end, and that is the eighth spiritual vein.

The seven spiritual veins would have sucked a lot, but it would be very uncomfortable to have an old man with an appetite several times more than the previous seven combined.

However, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to persevere. There is spiritual liquid on the left and elixir on the right. Ye Yong shouts for Oli, pours out the elixir and stuffs it into his mouth. Then he pours the spiritual liquid, uses his mental skills, and transforms his spiritual power to practice. .

————29 days later

"I'm almost at the sixth level of crystallization. The mental method is currently at the progress bar of 69 on the first level. If the level can be higher and reach the second level, the speed of converting spiritual power should be accelerated a lot." Ye Yong looked at it. The large and small empty bottles piled around him made him sigh.

Having more spiritual veins means more spiritual power is stored, and the battle lasts longer. This is an advantage, but only the person involved knows how hard it is during the camp.

"Huh?" Ye Yong suddenly smelled a hint of conspiracy: "It's just a little bit close. Will he break through in the competition by then, and create some strange phenomena, thunder from the sky, etc., and completely win me over?" Kill until death?"

Ye Yong felt that he had not been able to break through to the sixth level as expected, and it was possible that Heavenly Dao was doing something secretly.

Although the vision first appeared when he was building the 20th floor of the foundation and the first level of the stone, and the breakthrough never appeared again, but who knows if the vision might go crazy and suddenly escape?

"Damn it, give me another two days and I will definitely be able to break through." Ye Yong was very anxious, but had no choice because he had to go out today.

Tianluo Sect has accepted tens of thousands of new disciples this time, and almost 80% of them will participate in the competition. This is a huge event, and there will be something similar to an opening ceremony.

As a seeded player who has attracted much attention, Ye Yong has to go on stage to speak, so naturally he cannot be absent.

"During the competition, you cannot use your true strength. You have to suppress your spiritual power."

Different from meditation and cultivation, actual combat can make people grow more. During combat, spiritual power is in a highly active state. Some people may have been stuck at a bottleneck for hundreds of years. Maybe a battle loosens the bottleneck and breaks through.

The current Ye Yong is equivalent to the critical point close to the sixth floor. As long as he crosses it, he can successfully enter the sixth floor. By taking medicine and slowly building up spiritual power, you can overcome it in about two days. But if you make a real move during the fight and your spiritual power surges, you will most likely be able to pass directly.

Breaking through in the middle of a fight is very common, and Ye Yong is worried about being killed by Tiandao.

The crystallization stage breakthrough zone phenomenon, still in full view of the public, will definitely ignite Xinzi, detonate the whole audience, and raise the limelight to unprecedented heights.

"It shouldn't be a big deal if you meet other monks. You can deal with it easily. If you meet Long Tian..."

Even if it is an ordinary sparring match, the pride in Long Tian's heart will not allow him to lose casually and will go all out. In this sect competition, he will show off his crystallized strength, pretend to be fierce, and change from an outer disciple to an inner disciple. Then he will be favored and protected by an elder and participate in the joint competition later. And 'Ye Yong' also lost to Long Tian in this competition, and his mentality completely exploded, accelerating his death.

"In the novel, Long Tian's cultivation reached the sixth level of crystallization. In reality, I blocked many opportunities for him. Even if the opportunities were small, it should have slowed down his progress to some extent, right? If he only had the fifth level and triggered the butterfly effect, It's very possible that he missed me... No, even if he is still at the sixth level, 'Ye Yong' in the novel pushed back others and promoted to the seventh level regardless of the consequences. I am only at the peak of the fifth level now. I should be the one who triggered the butterfly effect. We should stay away from him...wait a minute, if both of us are at the fifth level of crystallization, wouldn't the chance of running into each other be greater? "

Ye Yong's blood pressure suddenly rose again. Is this like picking a stone and hitting himself in the foot? Or is this all part of Heaven's plan?

————Jiange Hall, a compound of outer disciples

Long Tian came out of the magical jade pendant space. He looked at his hands and punched the air without using his spiritual power.

Husband's sound, even without the blessing of spiritual power, the physical body was powerful enough to make a sound that broke through the air.

"This is the peak of the fifth level of crystallization..." Long Tian murmured to himself, and there was a knock on the door at the right time.

"Long Tian, ​​Long Tian, ​​are you able to come out of seclusion? It's time to gather at the first peak. The elders want to speak, and it seems that Master Ye Yong will also speak on behalf of our new disciples."

"Oh?" Hearing Ye Yong's name, Long Tian became a little more interested: "Wait a minute, I'll take a shower and change clothes first."

After staying in the Jade Pendant Space for three months, Long Tian not only meditated, he also made elixirs, drew talismans, and practiced exercises.

It's true that Ye Yong's cultivation is slow and painful, but with the system store and automatic hang-up system, he doesn't need to do everything himself. But Long Tian had to do everything by himself. There was no water source for bathing in the Jade Pendant Space, and he sweated a lot. Long Tian didn't take care of it, because time is money. He didn't think his talent was very high, but he had three days a day for others. , he can just make up for his lack of talent through time.

"Hurry up." Qiu Ligao didn't know that much. In his mind, unless it was a perfect or super-quality elixir, any low-grade, medium or high-grade elixir would contain a certain amount of toxins. After taking it, During practice, it will be automatically excreted from the body and form some dirt on the surface of the skin. Long Tian had been in seclusion for a month, and he must have not taken a shower for a long time. Qiu Ligao didn't want to rush him too much, but as an outer disciple, it was better to arrive early than to be late. He shouted a few more times, and after a while, Long Tian, ​​who had tidied up, came out to join him. Head to the first peak.
