Cultivation of Immortality: Refining the Innate Spiritual Treasure at the beginning

As Li Yang entered the state of cultivation, spiritual energy of various attributes quickly gathered on the hill less than fifty meters high. The colorful aura gradually surrounded Li Yang's figure.

The strange phenomenon here was quickly discovered by people passing by, and the news that Li Yang was about to break through at the No. 12 Tribulation Place spread at an extremely fast speed.

In the next few days, several people would come from time to time around the Tribulation Place No. 12 and look towards the top of the mountain.

"Li Yang will eventually break through at the Tribulation Place No. 12. This is what will happen if he offends the Mission Hall. Without the formation to weaken the Tribulation, how could he possibly be able to withstand those 36 thunders!"

"Li Yang is cultivating here, isn't he afraid that there will be some monsters or evil cultivators around to attack him? This is too bold!"

"It is rumored that Li Yang's physical strength is extremely strong. If the calamity is weaker, it will not be difficult to survive the calamity even without the help of formations!"

"It is said that Deacon Huang hired seven handyman disciples and asked them to occupy the seven previously vacant places to overcome the tribulation. It is for this reason that Li Yang was assigned here to overcome the tribulation. However, it is rumored that Deacon Huang has spent 6000 contribution points, I don’t know if it’s true!”

"When Li Yang was practicing, the visions around him were quite gorgeous. I only heard that he had five elements mixed spiritual roots, and I didn't know what kind of exercises he practiced. The big, four and small five flags above his head were spread out. What spiritual roots?”

"It is rumored that Li Yang is less than 50 years old. He has cultivated the foundation building perfection with mixed spiritual roots at such a young age, and now he is preparing to condense the golden elixir. This person is not simple!"

……

There are often some monks stopping around the Tribulation Place No. 12. They usually take a look at Li Yang who is practicing on the top of the mountain, make a few comments, and then drive away from the place with their magic weapons.

Fortunately, these people didn't have any bad intentions and didn't really step into the tribulation place No. 12. Otherwise, they will know whether there is a formation here.

As time passed slowly, fewer and fewer people came here to see Li Yang out of boredom, and then only people passed by occasionally.

After Li Yang began to practice, he ran the "Five Elements of Success and Reverse" with all his strength. The endless spiritual energy flowed into the sea of ​​​​qi along the phantom of the spiritual root of the Five Directions Flag, and finally turned into Li Yang's true essence.

Because the amount of true energy in Li Yang's body had already reached its limit, the exercise only lasted for a short time before the true energy reached its peak state.

By this time, Li Yang was also ready to make a breakthrough. According to the breakthrough method recorded in the exercise, Li Yang adjusted the method of operation.

In an instant, the true energy in the air sea began to rotate around the center, and the spiritual roots of the Five Directions Flags slowly gathered towards the center of the air sea.

As the technique continues to operate, the true energy that is relatively close to the center of the Qi Sea is compressed again, and its quality is once again improved. At this time, the spiritual energy from the outside world was still pouring into the body continuously. Replenish the real energy lost due to quality improvement.

Li Yang's cultivation has already reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage. If his spiritual roots were not in his body, he would have been able to break through.

Therefore, Li Yang's early preparations for his breakthrough only took a very short time. As if things came naturally, all the true energy slowly formed a sphere with the spiritual root of the Five Directions Flag as the center, and then slowly compressed toward the center.

All of this didn't seem to need Li Yang's control, and the breakthrough began directly.

As the true essence began to compress inward, the edge of the air sea lost its true essence and became a vacuum zone. At this time, the spiritual energy from the outside world began to pour into the body at an accelerated rate, beginning to fill the edge of the sea of ​​​​qi without true energy.

When I first started to break through, everything seemed to fall into place. But after a while, the speed of breakthrough began to slow down, and Li Yang had to start activating his skills to accelerate the compression of true energy.

Under Li Yang's urging, the spiritual roots of the Five Directions Flag quickly rotated clockwise, and the surrounding true energy was attracted to the Five Directions Flag and continued to compress inwards.

In the past, most of Li Yang's true energy was gray in color. Only the parts close to the spiritual root of the Five Directions Flag will show colors that complement the attributes of the spiritual root. For example, if the true essence is close to the red fire flag, it will turn red, and if it is close to the Wutu flag, it will turn yellow.

But now, the five square flags are almost compressed together. When the true energy is close to them, the color no longer changes, and they all show gray true energy.

At first, the compression of the true essence was very smooth, but later on, it became more and more difficult.

Li Yang's Qi Sea was infinitely close to ten feet, and it only took him less than five days to compress his true energy to within one foot, but it took him ten days to compress it to within three feet.

Li Yang continued to work hard and spent another twenty days to compress all the true energy within one foot. At this time, dark clouds began to gather above Li Yang's head, and the power of thunder flashed, and a catastrophe could take shape at any time.

Although the true energy in the Qi Sea seems to be substantial, there is still a long way to go before a breakthrough. What's more, the diameter of anyone's golden elixir cannot be more than one foot.

Li Yang did not hesitate and continued to compress the true energy.

Time passed slowly due to Li Yang's unremitting efforts. In the blink of an eye, 55 days have passed since Li Yang started compressing the true essence. At this time, the real energy in Li Yang's body was compressed to the size of a goose egg, with a diameter of only seven or eight centimeters.

This is the golden elixir condensed by Li Yang. Of course, it can only be considered a real golden elixir after it has been tempered by the thunder tribulation. But now, it can only be regarded as a ball of true energy at best.

At this point, it is difficult for Li Yang to compress the true essence again. What's more, the condensed golden elixir can be used for up to 55 days. This is the rule of the world in this world.

If the time is exceeded, thunder and disaster will fall from the heaven and the earth, forcibly interrupting the condensation process.

Other people's golden elixirs usually show their own attribute colors. Even if they are five elements pseudo-spiritual roots, their colors should be colorful, but the golden elixirs that Li Yang has gathered now are gray. If you don't look carefully, you may not even notice its existence.

……

As the thunder tribulation phenomenon loomed on the 12th Tribulation Place, the practitioners in the gathering point began to pay attention to the situation on Li Yang's side.

Most of the people around Wancisha Mountain are practitioners in the late stage of foundation building, and it is not very far away for them to overcome the tribulation themselves. Therefore, whenever someone breaks through a tribulation, it is a good opportunity for them to observe and learn.

What's more, in their minds, the place where Li Yang was crossing the tribulation was not protected by formations, and the tribulation thunder he faced would be even more dangerous.

In this way, Li Yang's tribulation will be of more reference to them.
