Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

Chapter 39 Advance again

The effect of Xiao Peiyuan Dan is indeed powerful, and it is the most powerful Chinese medicine among all the elixirs Chen Yunhao has taken so far.

It can be said that a small Peiyuan Pill can last for two days, and its medicinal power is two to three times that of a top-grade Buling Pill.

The value of this Lingshi flower is such that since I started taking the Xiao Peiyuan Pill, my cultivation progress has naturally been the fastest ever.

There is also a market in the South City, which is slightly smaller in scale and has fewer people than in the West City. The main reason is that the population there is not as mixed as there.

In the Nancheng Market, you can occasionally see cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage setting up stalls. After building the foundation, more resources are needed. For cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage who have no foundation, obtaining resources is equally difficult.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to encounter Foundation Establishment cultivators setting up stalls in South City, but most of them require the use of medium-grade spirit stones to trade.

In his spare time, Chen Yunhao also took a walk around the Nancheng market, in order to familiarize himself with the situation in Nancheng as soon as possible.

Generally speaking, even the elixirs and talismans refined by cultivators in the foundation-building stage have varying qualities in the South City market, and the overall level is not as good as that of the shops on the street.

The only advantage is that the prices are cheaper than those in street shops.

Chen Yunhao bought more than a dozen first-grade, top-quality talismans from a stall owner who was a foundation-building cultivator.

The price was not cheap. I bought three talismans for two medium-grade spirit stones.

The power of a first-grade, top-quality talisman is more than three times that of a mid-grade one, so it is not as simple as upgrading to the next level.

The price of talismans is often differentiated by their power. A first-level mid-grade talisman usually costs twenty to thirty low-grade spirit stones.

The top-grade one was instantly worth seventy or eighty low-grade spirit stones, the main reason for this being that its power was increased by at least three times.

Also, he had never seen Xiao Peiyuan Dan being sold in the Nancheng market. This kind of elixir was imitated by some talented alchemists and was not something that could be found on the street.

In general, the frequency of use of medium-grade spirit stones has increased significantly in the South City Market, so we should exchange more for backup in the future.

Chen Yunhao did not buy many first-grade, high-quality talismans. Talismans of this level were worth copying with an ancient mirror.

More than two hundred days had passed when Chen Yunhao finished taking the small Peiyuan Pill in his hand.

His cultivation level has undoubtedly reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. Is this a fast cultivation speed?

In fact, it was not that fast. He had swallowed hundreds of high-quality elixirs, plus the spirit gathering array, and his own excellent spiritual roots.

Taking all these factors into consideration, this speed is not fast.

If Chen Yunhao wasn't worried about not having a solid foundation, he would have been able to go even faster.

But compared to when he was in the sect before, it was much faster.

Entering the ninth level of Qi Refining is just one step away from the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The ninth level of Qi Refining is strictly speaking two steps, and there is another level called the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

This great perfection of Qi Refining can be said to be similar to the tenth level of Qi Refining, but general exercises classify it as the ninth level of Qi Refining.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are strict rules for practicing techniques. There are three levels in the early stage of Qi Refining, three levels in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and three levels in the late stage of Qi Refining. Three times three equals nine, and nine is the extreme.

When you enter the ninth level of Qi Refining, you will be ready to build your foundation, and the relevant preparatory work will begin.

The cave where he lives now was originally prepared for building the foundation, and the conditions are ripe.

The most crucial thing is the lack of a foundation-building pill, so this needs to be put on the agenda.

He had already found out the source of the Foundation Establishment Pill, which was nothing more than those two channels.

He now has more than ten thousand low-grade spirit stones in his hand, but judging by the results of last year's auction, it is still far from enough.

But it is not a problem for him now. As long as he wants, he can go out and exchange it for 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, or even more low-grade spirit stones.

Of course, at the auction, you don’t want low-grade spirit stones, you want medium-grade spirit stones, which can be exchanged later.

I am just a casual cultivator at the auction, although I may have more spirit stones than some small immortal cultivation families.

If I really forcefully buy a Foundation Establishment Pill from the auction, I'm afraid it will cause me some trouble later.

He had heard from others that at the auctions in recent realms, the Foundation Establishment Pills released by the Five Elements Sect were almost monopolized by several surrounding families.

For several years, I haven't heard of any casual cultivator successfully buying the Foundation Establishment Pill.

However, since this is related to my own foundation building, I have to go against the current even if there are troubles.

As long as he succeeds in building his foundation and doesn't leave Yuxian City easily, those small independent cultivator families won't be able to do anything to him!

At present, it seems that this is the only channel through which he can see hope.

As for obtaining a spiritual medicine for foundation building that is more than five hundred years old, he thinks it may be even more difficult.

At least he has been in Yuxian City for one or two years, and he has never encountered it, and it is impossible for him to encounter it.

Any cultivator who obtained a five-hundred-year-old elixir would directly exchange it for the Medicine King Pavilion and would never circulate it on the market.

So after Chen Yunhao entered the ninth level of Qi Refining, he consolidated his cultivation a little and then began the next step.

During these months of seclusion, he had been injecting true energy into the ancient mirror and had never used it once.

According to Chen Yunhao's own estimation, the amount of true energy accumulated in the ancient mirror is enough to match the true energy of three or four foundation-building cultivators.

This is a huge amount of energy, but the ancient mirror still hasn't changed at all, it's still so plain and simple.

He was just like a glutton, accepting no matter how much true energy he injected into him.

There is enough energy in the ancient mirror, so it's time for it to take effect.

First, I copied two Fire Crow Swords, two Nine Illusions, three pairs of Cloud-Stepping Boots, and three sets of armor.

Two copies of each of the Spirit Gathering Array and the Eight Extremes Locking Gate Array were made.

There was also a first-class, top-grade talisman that he had purchased at a high price, and he had copied nearly a hundred of them.

You don't have to use all of these talismans, you should keep some for backup.

As for the storage bag, the robes, and the flying sword he used the earliest, their value was too low, so he had not copied them a long time ago.

There were quite a few scattered items, and Chen Yunhao had no intention of selling them in the market.

Mainly because he had learned from the previous experience and lessons, he believed that it was because he traded too much in the market that people targeted him.

This time, he walked from South City to North City, and then to East City, always following the main road. Whenever he saw a suitable shop, he would go in and sell one or two items.

He traveled almost all over Yuxian City before he sold more than a dozen magic weapons separately. Of course, he also sold twenty or thirty high-quality talismans in his hand.

A total of 31,000 low-grade spirit stones were obtained, but the actual amount received was less than that.

Because he exchanged them all for medium-grade spirit stones, there would be some losses in the exchange.

Anyway, when he came back after walking around, there were three hundred more medium-grade spirit stones in his storage bag.

With these mid-grade spirit stones, plus the spirit stones accumulated before, his net worth is no less than 40,000 low-grade spirit stones.

It was enough for him to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill at the auction.
