To put it simply, the first level of the "Truth Formula" was equivalent to the entry stage of cultivation. What this stage had to be completed was the Taoist's "refining essence into qi".
That was to transform the food one ate and the spiritual energy in the world into one's own true qi.
When the true qi in the body reached a certain level, the quantitative change would lead to a qualitative change, and the cultivator could enter the next stage.
The first level of the "Truth Formula" divided the process of refining essence into qi into ten stages. Each stage had a corresponding cultivation formula and meridian diagram. After completing the ten stages step by step, one could naturally cultivate the first level of the "Truth Formula" to perfection.
Those obscure formulas that seemed to be full of the truth of heaven and earth had been thoroughly understood by Xia Ruofei, so he took a deep breath. After concentrating his mind, he began to try to cultivate the first meridian diagram.
The first step of cultivation was to sense the free energy between heaven and earth.
This threshold was extremely difficult for ordinary people, but Xia Ruofei crossed it effortlessly.
Because the spiritual energy in the Ring-Tu space could be said to be thousands of times richer than the outside world, and Xia Ruofei himself was the owner of the Ring-Tu space. He had already established a flesh and blood connection with the space, so he was more sensitive to the spiritual energy in the space.
Therefore, as soon as Xia Ruofei started cultivating, the misty spiritual energy floating in the space was attracted by Xia Ruofei almost instantly.
However, at the moment when the spiritual energy was absorbed by Xia Ruofei, the innate pure yang qi that had been suppressed in his dantian immediately became restless.
At this time, Xia Ruofei heard Xia Qing's voice, "Master, please cultivate the" Truth Formula "to absorb the innate pure yang qi!"
Xia Ruofei woke up — the innate pure yang qi and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth were both energy in essence, and the innate pure yang qi contained a higher purity of energy. It could be absorbed by cultivating.
It could be said that this was a higher level of energy. Not to mention the outside world, where spiritual energy was scarce, even in the Ring-Tu space, such pure energy could only be encountered by chance.
This was also the important reason why Xia Qing had advised Xia Ruofei to absorb the innate pure yang qi in Tang Haoran's body and suppress it.
Xia Ruofei did not hesitate and immediately cultivated the first level of the "Truth Formula". The innate pure yang qi in his dantian was extracted bit by bit and started to circulate according to the first meridian diagram.
In the process of flowing through the meridians, the Innate Pure Yang Qi was quickly transformed into Zhen Qi. There was not the slightest delay in the transformation process.
This was because the innate pure yang qi was very pure, almost without any impurities.
Xia Ruofei cultivated the mysterious cultivation method without any distractions. Traces of innate pure yang qi were extracted from his dantian and transformed into true qi in the process of circulation.
What was even more amazing was that in the process of transformation, Xia Ruofei's meridians also absorbed a small part of the innate pure yang qi. His meridians unknowingly became tougher and wider.
This was also the magical effect of the innate pure yang qi.
Therefore, Xia Qing had strongly advised Xia Ruofei to temporarily suppress the innate pure yang qi in his body. This was because cultivation could be done step by step. Even if there was no such high-grade and high-purity energy, it would only take a little more time. However, the opportunity to use the innate pure yang qi to transform the body was hard to come by.
Xia Ruofei did not notice the changes in his body because he was completely immersed in a state of concentration.
It didn't take long for his True Qi to flow according to the first meridian diagram. His meridians were already filled to the brim with a bulging feeling.
Then, Xia Ruofei immediately felt that the true qi in his body seemed to have broken through a layer of barrier.
Could it be that the first meridian diagram had been completed?
Xia Ruofei also did not dare to believe it because according to the description of the "Dao Formula", each meridian diagram corresponded to a level of the Qi Refining stage. The ten diagrams corresponded to the first level of the Qi Refining stage to the tenth level of the Qi Refining stage.
Every level had a bottleneck, and this bottleneck was not so easy to break through. Sometimes it required the accumulation of time, and sometimes it also required a certain amount of comprehension.
Although he could not feel the passage of time during cultivation, Xia Ruofei could roughly judge that not much time had passed since he sat down to cultivate. More than half of the innate pure yang qi in his dantian had not been absorbed and digested!
He broke through to the second level of the Qi Refining stage in such a short time, and the bottleneck only made Xia Ruofei feel a trace of delay, and then it was easily broken through.
This made Xia Ruofei feel that it was unreal.
However, he carefully checked the state of his body and found that although it was unbelievable, the fact was that he had broken through to the second level of the Qi Refining stage.
The innate pure yang qi in his dantian had been touched just now, and it was difficult to suppress it by relying on the simple formula that Xia Qing taught him.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei did not have time to think too much and directly began to circulate the mental cultivation method according to the second meridian diagram.
After entering the second level of the Qi Refining stage, the consumption of the innate pure yang qi was even faster. It flowed in the meridians like a river and was constantly being transformed into true qi. At the same time, it was also nourishing and transforming Xia Ruofei's meridians.
Time slowly passed, and Xia Ruofei soon felt the bottleneck of the second level of the Qi Refining stage. Similarly, this bottleneck was similar to a decoration and was directly broken through by Xia Ruofei like a hot knife through butter.
Next was the third level of the Qi Refining stage. At this time, the innate pure yang qi in his dantian was about half of the original.
All the mental cultivation methods and meridian diagram had been deeply engraved in Xia Ruofei's mind. As long as the cultivation level reached a certain level, he could easily circulate the mental cultivation method according to the diagrams. There was no need to learn, adapt, or be proficient in the process.
At this time, the innate pure yang qi in Xia Ruofei's dantian formed a cyclone. The centrifugal force constantly threw the innate pure yang qi out, and then it entered the meridians involved in the third meridian diagram. Under the effect of the mental cultivation method of the "Dao Formula", Xia Ruofei continued to transform the meridians and transform true qi.
After entering the third level of the Qi Refining stage, Xia Ruofei's cultivation speed did not decrease at all.
After a while, he clearly felt the existence of the bottleneck.
Xia Ruofei did not deliberately break through the bottleneck and just circulated the mental cultivation method normally.
According to the description of the "Dao Formula", the three bottlenecks of the third, sixth, and ninth levels of the Qi Refining stage were relatively large and were equivalent to a small qualitative change.
However, Xia Ruofei still unknowingly broke through the bottleneck of the third level.
In a short time, Xia Ruofei went from a newcomer with no foundation to the threshold of the fourth level of the Qi Refining stage in one fell swoop.
Xia Ruofei was already somewhat numb to this. At this time, there was about a quarter of the innate pure yang qi left in his dantian. Xia Ruofei continued to circulate the mental cultivation method.
After entering the fourth level of the Qi Refining stage, Xia Ruofei's cultivation speed gradually slowed down.
The cyclone in his dantian was only the size of a jujube. This cyclone formed by the innate pure yang qi spun rapidly, and wisps of pure yang qi escaped and were absorbed by Xia Ruofei's meridians.
After an unknown amount of time, Xia Ruofei felt that there was not a trace of the innate pure yang qi left in his body. It had all been absorbed by him.
At this time, when he circulated the mental cultivation method, what he absorbed was the spirit qi in the space.
Xia Ruofei stopped in time — today's cultivation speed was too fast, so fast that it made him feel a little scared.
He knew the principle of going too far was as bad as falling short. If the realm was not stable enough and the foundation was not solid enough, no matter what he did, it would not be long-term. He believed that cultivation was the same.
Xia Ruofei slowly stopped circulating the mental cultivation method and slightly felt the surging true qi in his body. Then, he opened his eyes and stood up.
Xia Ruofei felt that his body was full of strength. He even had an illusion that even if a truck crashed at high speed, he could stop it with one hand.
Xia Qing, who was guarding Xia Ruofei in the distance, saw this and hurried over.
"Master, how does it feel to cultivate for the first time?" Xia Qing asked.
Xia Ruofei scratched his head and said, "I can't say … It feels too fast, right? I'm already at the fourth level of the Qi Refining stage! "
Xia Qing could not help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he said with relief, "Master, it must be because the innate pure yang qi in your body is very pure, and the first few levels of the Qi Refining stage are relatively easy to break through, so you can cultivate to this stage in one go."
Xia Ruofei asked with some worry, "Will that cause the realm to be unstable?"
Xia Qing said with a smile, "Master, you don't have to worry at all. You've already laid a very good foundation by taking the Spirit Nourishing Soup, Body Tempering Soup, and refining your mental strength. Now, it can only be considered as a good foundation! Moreover, during the process of transformation, the innate pure yang qi will also nourish and strengthen the meridians. In the first three levels of the Qi Refining stage, you completely relied on the innate pure yang qi to break through, so not only will your foundation not be unstable, it's just that your foundation is much more stable than that of ordinary cultivators! "
"Then I'm relieved." Xia Ruofei also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Qing continued, "But I still suggest that you temporarily control the speed of your cultivation. After all, you've just come into contact with cultivation. If your cultivation speed is too fast, I'm afraid that your state of mind won't be able to keep up, and it's easy to have inner demons."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll stabilize my realm at the fourth level of the Qi Refining stage. At the same time, I'll use this time to learn more about the other inheritance books in the jade talisman."
