In the blink of an eye, four years had passed and Wang Daoyuan was no longer able to sneak out successfully. After all, Wang Shouye, who was watching him, was the ancestor of sneaking out.
All the methods that he could think of were left behind by Wang Shouye. His many attempts to sneak out were all instantly seen through by Wang Shouye.
He was locked up and could not sneak out to sell spirit grains and spirit herbs. He could only ask the Twelfth Uncle to help him buy cultivation resources and he had to pay a jar of wine every time.
Wang Shouye even called it "compensation for mental damage", "compensation for loss of freedom", "compensation for loss of youth" and so on.
In order to earn spirit stones in exchange for cultivation resources, he could only admit that he could refine superior-grade grade one spirit talismans. After all, superior-grade grade one spirit talismans had an average price of five spirit stones. Spirit talismans that exceeded the allotment set by the family were sold for four spirit stones each.
With sufficient resources, Wang Daoyuan's cultivation reached the peak of Qi Refinement Stage Six.
Qi Refinement Stage Seven was considered late-stage Qi Refinement Stage. Once he broke through to Qi Refinement Stage Seven, his confinement was lifted.
However, late-stage Qi Refinement Stage was the second bottleneck of the Qi Refinement Stage and the difficulty of breaking through was far greater than Qi Refinement Stage Four.
In four years, his cultivation had gone from Qi Refinement Stage Four to the peak of Qi Refinement Stage Six, an increase of nearly three levels.
This speed was too fast for most cultivators.
However, Wang Daoyuan's cultivation did not solely rely on elixirs. It was also the result of his own hard work. Coupled with his solid foundation, even though his cultivation speed was too fast in the past four years, his cultivation could not be considered superficial. However, his foundation could not be considered solid either.
The foundation of the Qi Refinement Stage determined one's future achievements. With the space of the spirit pearl, Wang Daoyuan's future was very bright and the possibility of him reaching Foundation Establishment was not small. Naturally, he had to consider his future.
In a situation where one's foundation was not solid enough, directly relying on large amounts of elixirs to forcefully break through the bottleneck would cause very serious consequences.
That was if one's foundation was unstable and their cultivation was superficial. In the future, their cultivation would increase slowly and the difficulty of breaking through would greatly increase when they encountered a bottleneck.
Furthermore, it was very troublesome to resolve such a situation.
There were only two ways. One was to consume spirit herbs that could resolve the problem of an unstable foundation. Of course, such spirit herbs were expensive and rare.
The other was to slow down one's cultivation speed and not be in a hurry to break through. Slowly, to completely resolve the problem of an unstable foundation. However, the amount of time needed to accumulate was something that ordinary cultivators could not accept.
Although there were all kinds of supplementary secret techniques that could solve the problem of an unstable foundation, compared to cultivating honestly and accumulating enough experience before making a breakthrough, the amount of time, energy, and resources required was much greater.
For the sake of his future, it was better to accumulate enough before breaking through.
Without any secret techniques or spiritual items, the best way to consolidate one's cultivation was through battle.
Wang Daoyuan was confined and could not leave the Alchemy Seal Pavilion. The only opponent he could find was Wang Shouye, who was watching over him. Carrying two jars of Scarlet Blood Wine, he walked out of the cave.
There was nothing he could do about it. If he asked Wang Shouye to do something, it would be impossible to do it without wine. He had also asked Wang Shouye to buy these wines. Every time he bought wine, Wang Shouye would take a cut. He would get one for every ten jars.
However, these wine jars were not wasted. They were all used by Wang Daoyuan to store his new wine.
The scarlet blood ginseng in the space could be used to make wine three years ago. However, there was no way to explain the source of the wine, so he could only drink it himself and not take it out.
The earliest batch of Scarlet Blood Wine had already been stored for three years. According to the time in the space of the Spirit Pearl, it had already been aged for thirty years.
Wang Shouye was dozing off in the backyard of the Alchemy Seal Pavilion. Just as Wang Daoyuan walked out of the cave with the two jars of wine, he woke up and smiled. "You brat, you don't wake up early without benefits. What business do you have with me this time? I'll say the ugly words first. Don't even think about running away. "
Wang Daoyuan said fawningly, "Look at what you're saying. Can't I be filial to Twelfth Uncle for no reason? I'm already at the peak of Qi Disciple Stage Six. I'm just one step away from breaking through to late-stage Qi Disciple Stage. If I run away now, wouldn't it be the same as wetting the bed in the morning? "
"Alright, let's not talk about those useless things." Wang Shouye interrupted Wang Daoyuan. "If you have something to say, just say it."
Wang Ziyang smiled. "Hehe, Twelfth Uncle knows me best. I'm about to break through, but my accumulation isn't enough. If I forcefully break through to late-stage Qi Disciple Stage, my foundation might be unstable. Therefore, I came to find Twelfth Uncle to be my sparring partner and consolidate my cultivation. "
"I knew it. You brat, you wouldn't be so kind as to give me wine for no reason. Since it's to break through as soon as possible, then as an elder, I should help you. If you break through earlier, I won't have to watch over you all day. These four years have been stifling for me. I'll beat you up first to vent my anger. "Wang Shouye said without hesitation.
Wang Daoyuan took out the Mystic Yang Sword and performed a sword salute.
Wang Shouye said casually, "Don't bother with those empty words. Just directly attack. You're just a rookie without any experience. I'll be fine empty-handed."
Although Wang Daoyuan had killed an assassin at the peak of Qi Disciple Stage, he had relied on the power of the talisman to succeed in a sneak attack. It couldn't be considered combat experience at all. It wasn't wrong to call him a rookie.
The only gain was that he had cultivated his courage. When it was time to attack, he would dare to attack. He wouldn't be as afraid as a real rookie.
Hearing Wang Shouye's words, Wang Daoyuan didn't stand on ceremony. He activated his Wind Stepping Boots with all his might and stabbed forward with his sword.
Wang Shouye held the wine gourd in his left hand and used his right hand as a sword finger. He gently tapped on the sword's body, causing the sword to tilt to the side.
Wang Daoyuan pulled back the Mystic Yang Sword and swept it over again. Wang Shouye flicked his sword finger and the Mystic Yang Sword was raised high and passed over his head.
After that, Wang Daoyuan used all the basic moves of the sword technique, such as chop, lift, point, stab, and collapse.
Wang Shouye easily received it with his sword finger. Other than his right arm, his body didn't move at all.
Wang Daoyuan had learned quite a bit of martial arts from the old Daoist in his previous life. However, the society in his previous life didn't have the conditions to fight.
The martial arts he learned in his previous life were basically built behind closed doors. He would often spar with the old Daoist. At most, he would act bravely for justice and beat up hooligans. He had never fought with an expert before, so he didn't have any actual combat experience.
After fighting for more than two hours, Wang Daoyuan's spirit energy was exhausted. He put away the Mystic Yang Sword and sat beside Wang Shouye. They each picked up a jar of Scarlet Blood Wine and drank it all in one gulp. They sat on the spot to recover their spirit energy.
It had to be said that spirit wine was much better than Spirit Recovery Pills in terms of recovering spirit energy.
After drinking the spirit wine, there was no need to refine it. The spirit energy in the wine would quickly be absorbed and automatically enter the meridians. As long as it was transformed by the spirit root, it could be completely used for oneself.
On the other hand, Spirit Recovery Pills needed to be refined before they could be absorbed into the meridians. Then, the spirit energy would be transformed into one's own. The time required was three times more than drinking the spirit wine.
However, spirit wine wasn't without its drawbacks. Cultivators who couldn't drink wine would be drunk for a few days after drinking a jar of wine. No matter how fast one's spirit energy recovered, it was meaningless to use spirit energy to dissolve the alcohol.
Even Wang Daoyuan would pass out after drinking five jars of Scarlet Blood Wine at once. Wang Shouye's alcohol tolerance was about the same.
As soon as Wang Daoyuan's spirit energy recovered, he began to spar with Wang Shouye again. However, the battle situation still didn't change. It was still one-sided.
After fighting for an entire day, his spirit energy was exhausted four or five times. Wang Daoyuan was exhausted, but Wang Shouye didn't sweat at all. He could even fight for a few more hours.
