Chapter 357: Cultivation and Foundation Building
In the Falling Star Courtyard, everyone was extremely excited, and their original worries were swept away.
Qian Yuan was bewitched by Yun Xiao before, and wanted to find out Wu Yan's details and lead these people out. The Zhou brothers and others were still worried. Unexpectedly, when their master came back, even the chief steward of Liehai Island came to deal with the dispute in person.
The disaster that was originally thought to be inevitable was eliminated invisibly. Those sons of the noble families actually bowed to Wu Yan under the persuasion of the chief steward Ni Zhao, and each of them also presented a meeting gift.
From beginning to end, no one mentioned the murder of Yuan Fang. It was as if Yuan Fang had never appeared. And this Yuan Fang also rented a cave for cultivation on the island. Coincidentally, it was in Cave No. 7, just before Wu Yan's Cave No. 9.
This person paid three years of fees, but lived there for less than a year. Ni Zhao did not ask about this matter, and the key to Yuan Fang's cave was in the storage bag, which was equivalent to acquiescing that the cave temporarily belonged to Wu Yan.
Yuan Fang's end is really sad. In order to please Yun Xiao, he forced himself to stand out, and died at the hands of Wu Yan, but it was like a bubble in the water, which was shattered. Yun Xiao didn't even dare to fart for him.
This incident also made Wu Yan suddenly realize that there are many powerful families in Xumi Sea. Maybe someone will recruit him in the future, but he will never join. Because, from Yuan Fang's end, it can be seen that those powerful families will never stand up for ordinary casual cultivators. What they value is just the exploitable value of casual cultivators.
Everything depends on one's own strength to gain a foothold in Xumi Sea. If you want to rely on others, I am afraid you may not know how you die in the end.
After comforting everyone, Wu Yan asked them to settle down here and told them that he lived in the No. 9 cave house opposite. If there was anything in the future, they could go to him for consultation.
After leaving Luoxing Courtyard, Wu Yan went all the way to the No. 9 cave.
There was a wide stone road between the house area and the cave area for cultivation. The stone road extended to the houses and caves on both sides, with flat bluestone paths. There were dense trees and green grass on both sides, which was quite quiet and elegant.
When he arrived in front of the cave, Wu Yan was stunned.
I saw that the huge stone tablet stretched across the cave. The magic circle in front of the cave was actually arranged from the stone tablet. In front of the cave, a protection of ten feet in diameter, like smoke and fog, was formed, making it difficult to see the reality in front of the cave.
Wu Yan took out the red jade talisman, injected magic power, and shook it at the word "nine" in the huge stone tablet on the top of the cave.
The smoke and clouds of the protective array in front of him rolled, revealing a passage about ten feet wide.
Wu Yan walked into the passage, and his eyes lit up.
What came into view was a small courtyard built with a semicircular bluestone wall. Wu Yan was standing at the gate of the courtyard at this time. The flowers and trees in the courtyard were lush and full of vitality. A faint spiritual energy lingered in the courtyard, which was blocked by the protective array outside the cave and could not be seen.
Directly opposite, there was a stone door about two feet high and three feet wide. On the stone door, there was a groove of the same size as the red jade talisman. It was thought that the red jade talisman could be placed in the groove to open the stone door.
When he walked to the stone door, Wu Yan put the jade talisman into the groove and injected some magic power. Sure enough, he heard a dull sound coming from the stone cave room. The huge stone door opened with a bang.
Wu Yan was slightly surprised.
This stone door was several feet thick and was actually a piece of bluestone rock. I'm afraid that even if you use a top-level magic weapon to bombard it, you will never be able to blast open this huge stone door.
With this stone door, the cave is undoubtedly quite safe.
Wu Yan showed a satisfied expression on his face and walked into the stone cave. The stone door closed again with a creak. However, the stone cave was bright.
After entering the inside, Wu Yan's satisfied expression became even more.
The entire cave, about a dozen feet in radius, was divided into a larger main room and four small secret rooms.
After checking the entire cave several times inside and out, Wu Yan finally confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the cave, so he lived there with peace of mind.
In the following days, Wu Yan went to Mingxi Building in the town market again and bought several sets of good magic array instruments. He repeatedly arranged two sets outside his own cave, and also arranged one set for Luoxingyuan. The No. 7 cave was also arranged.
Despite Ni Zhao's guarantee, Wu Yan still did not dare to be careless. After arranging these things, Wu Yan arranged a more secret task for Xing Xiao and others.
Find out all matters related to the "Island Seizing Conference" and who will participate in the "Island Seizing Conference" from the four seas.
If it were somewhere else, this information might be difficult to find out, but it can be found on this Hunting Island.
Then, Wu Yan opened up one of the secret rooms into a medicine garden, and opened several hidden holes on the mountain above the secret room so that sunlight and moonlight could shine into the secret room smoothly.
After doing this, he placed the Heaven and Earth Furnace in the medicine garden, and then planted some spiritual medicine seeds in the medicine garden.
One of the four secret rooms is the Earth Fire Alchemy Room. Now the thousand-year spiritual medicine has not been spawned, so it is not used for the time being.
Next, Wu Yan began to collect fairy green soil and moonlight, cultivate thousand-year spiritual medicine, take medicine, refine qi, and improve his cultivation.
During this period, several people visited him. Except for Ni Zhao, who brought more than 9,000 spiritual stones from the auction to Wu Yan and entered the courtyard, all others were rejected by Wu Yan.
He didn't want to have contact with anyone now. The most urgent thing was to quickly restore his cultivation level, improve his strength, and then refine the foundation-building pill to successfully build his foundation.
He stayed at home and practiced hard, and half a year passed in a hurry.
After more than half a year of hard practice, Wu Yan's immortal skills had reached the state of great perfection in the Qi Refining Period, and his magic skills had also reached the state of perfection in the late foundation-building period.
One day, Wu Yan suddenly felt something in his heart. The originally gaseous spiritual power in the meridians in his body was unconsciously condensed into liquid spiritual power.
Wu Yan was overjoyed and did not dare to relax at all. After swallowing two Neng Yuan Dan and two Bi Gu Dan, he sat cross-legged at the entrance of the spiritual cave, worked hard, closed his eyes for six days, and did not move at all. He succeeded in building the foundation without taking the foundation-building pill and entered the initial stage of the foundation-building stage!
This unexpected harvest surprised Wu Yan and made him very excited.
During this period, he benefited a lot from his insights.
After successfully building the foundation, Wu Yan thought of his followers. Although many of them have reached the eleventh and twelfth levels of the Qi Refining Stage, no one has built the foundation yet, so he stopped practicing.
After resting for three days and recovering his spirit, Wu Yan took out several thousand-year-old spiritual medicines cultivated in the fairy green soil in the medicine garden and began to refine the foundation-building pill.
With all the materials ready, Wu Yan locked himself in the earth fire alchemy room and began to refine the pill.
He had successfully refined the foundation-building pill before, and this time he was quite skilled in refining the foundation-building pill. Moreover, the demon pills purchased this time were all five-element demon pills, which saved a lot of unnecessary trouble.
However, this alchemy is indeed not an easy task. If he did not have the best spiritual water in the world, Yuehua Lingye, which is the best in the world to blend medicinal properties, I am afraid that the success rate of the pill would be extremely low.
Ten days later, Wu Yan opened the stone door of the cave with a happy face and walked out of Cave No. 9. He walked towards the Falling Star Courtyard along the wide stone road outside the cave.
In the past six months, all those who have reached the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage have been arranged by Wu Yan to practice in Cave No. 7. After all, the spiritual energy in the cave is much stronger than that in the Falling Star Courtyard.
It's a pity that none of these people can successfully overcome this obstacle and build a foundation with their own perception.
Wu Yan arrived at the Falling Star Courtyard and called everyone in the courtyard to go to Cave No. 7 together.
In front of Cave No. 7, Wu Yan cast a message talisman into the magic circle.
After a while, Xing Xiao, Zhou brothers and seven or eight other guards who lived in Cave No. 7 all appeared at the door to welcome Wu Yan.
Wu Yan waved his hand and invited everyone to enter Cave No. 7. When he arrived at the stone hall of the cave, Wu Yan took out six jade bottles and placed them on the stone table in the stone hall. He stared at Xing Xiao and Zhou Tong brothers and said, "Here are three bottles of foundation-building pills, totaling 23 pills, and another three bottles, but they are medium-grade Ningyuan pills, also only 23 pills. This is the opportunity I can give you. Take Ningyuan pills first, then take foundation-building pills. If you still can't build a foundation successfully, it can only mean that your luck is not enough. Xing Xiao, you distribute these pills."
Xing Xiao and others all widened their eyes when they heard that it was foundation-building pills and Ningyuan pills, and their eyes were full of unbelievable ecstasy!
Led by Xing Xiao, all the servants knelt down devoutly to Wu Yan, and said excitedly: "Master, you are so kind, we have no way to repay you. I only wish to follow you in this life and never betray you!"
Wu Yan smiled and watched everyone kneel down and swear devoutly, and did not stop them. After everyone finished worshipping, Xing Xiao carefully picked up the six jade bottles, poured out the foundation-building pills and condensed essence pills in them, and distributed them one by one.
Now, these 23 bodyguards are all loyal servants who have followed Wu Yan through life and death, and the lowest cultivation level is already the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage. Everyone has reached the point where they can take the condensed essence pill and the foundation-building pill to impact the foundation-building realm.
In another year and a half, it will be the registration period for the "Island Seizing Conference". After Wu Yan has registered, he will definitely go to the Liehai City in the Free Sea with Ni Quan, the owner of Liehai Island, to report to the Liehai Academy for a year of hunting training. Naturally, these bodyguards will also accompany him.
If they cannot successfully build their foundation during this period, it means that even if they can follow Wu Yan to participate in the "Island Seizing Conference" in the future, their chances of survival will be very small.
Because of this, after everyone got the Foundation Building Pill and the Condensation Pill, they all fell into deep thought, thinking about how to build their own foundation with a serious face.
Wu Yan did what he should do, and next, it depends on the luck of these people.
After taking the two information jade slips presented by Xing Xiao, Wu Yan left Cave No. 7 and returned to Cave No. 9 to start a new round of closed-door training.
