In Chiyang School's Mission Hall, Wu Xing, Tang Lin, and Hua Shi Cheng handed in the mission together.
Then, they divided the contribution points equally. The three of them were happily planning to go to the Scarlet Sun District for a drink.
Zhao Xinmeng walked past them and nodded to each other. Then, they went their separate ways.
Outside the hall, they saw a surprised He Xinsheng. The three of them pretended not to know each other and turned around to walk towards the district.
Yi Tian, who was standing in the distance, saw He Xinsheng's deflated expression and felt a burst of joy in his heart.
Although there was a flaw in the plan this time, fortunately, it was fixed in time and did not lead to a disaster.
However, it was a mistake not to catch He Xinsheng in one fell swoop. After this time, before the Secret Realm Trial, it would be difficult to find another opportunity.
Among the few spies in the White Bone Gate, Guo Wenliang was the strongest, but He Xinsheng was the most shrewd.
Now that they had already alerted the enemy, it was best not to cause any more trouble in the near future.
Moreover, the other party did not leak anything. It would be difficult to find another opportunity to make a move.
He turned to look at the three of them. After this incident, the three of them knew that their strength was not enough.
Therefore, he hoped that they could cultivate properly in the future and strive to solve the next crisis with their own strength.
However, when it came to splitting the loot, these people were not careless. They could actually quarrel over a few spirit stones.
Five thousand spirit stones, one thousand per person. Yi Tian also gave the Crimson Yang True Fire Technique to Wu Xing, the Thick Earth Technique to Hua Shi Cheng, and the Profound Spirit Technique to Tang Lin. He hoped that the three of them could make the best use of it.
On the contrary, Yi Tian was the one who gave them a good scolding.
Tang Lin even said, "It was your idea that almost cost the three of us our lives. This psychological trauma can't be healed without a thousand spirit stones."
This time, the three of them were the same. Yi Tian was so angry that he could not do anything.
In the end, he could only take out three hundred spirit stones and give each of them three hundred spirit stones. The remaining one hundred spirit stones would be used for a good meal to calm their nerves.
These were two different things. The three of them promised that they still had about two years to cultivate properly.
Everyone was over twenty years old, especially Hua Shi Cheng who was already twenty-six.
If he missed this Secret Realm Trial, it would be very difficult for him to obtain another Foundation Establishment Pill.
From the information he had on hand, the trial that was held once every ten years was full of danger. At least half of the people sent by the major sects would die inside.
Yi Tian didn't know much about the situation in the Mystic Realm, so he might not be able to take care of them.
After explaining these things, Yi Tian let them be. After returning to the sect, there were more important things to do.
Yi Tian had always kept Guo Wenliang's words in mind. When he used his spiritual energy, there would still be residual spiritual energy leaking out from under his feet. This in itself showed that his cultivation was insufficient.
He wanted to take this opportunity to find his master, Ning Qingyuan, and ask him about the key points of the Dual Qi Ninth Layer and the method to build his foundation.
In addition, He Miao's ambush of three people with talismans had given Yi Tian some inspiration. He might as well ask all the questions at once.
There were still two years left for him to cultivate. He would take advantage of this opportunity to consolidate his cultivation. When the time came, his chances of survival would be higher.
After returning from his master's place, Yi Tian stayed in his room for the next few months.
Other than the fixed time to meditate and cultivate every day, he spent the rest of his time on talisman crafting.
Unfortunately, after a month, he couldn't even craft the simplest fireball talisman.
This caused Yi Tian to almost lose confidence in his talisman crafting.
He asked himself honestly, that He Miao could use talismans to hurt people, but he couldn't even craft one. What went wrong?
He remembered that a month ago, when he asked his master about the Qi Disciple Ninth Layer and the Foundation Establishment Stage, the answer he received made Yi Tian excited.
The Qi Disciple Ninth Layer was about the absorption and control of spiritual energy. At this stage, Yi Tian didn't have a problem absorbing spiritual energy. The key was control.
Thinking about Guo Wenliang's words, he was lacking in the control of spiritual energy.
Fortunately, the problem of talisman crafting could be solved. He could use the precise control of spiritual energy during talisman crafting.
He could completely lock the spell onto the talisman paper and refine it. For talisman crafters, this kind of control was also cultivation. It was a combination of spiritual energy and spell control.
Ning Qingyuan also told Yi Tian, "If you can skillfully craft talismans at this stage, then you won't be far from the peak of the Qi Disciple Ninth Layer. All the problems can be easily solved."
As for the Foundation Establishment Stage, it couldn't be replaced by others.
Everyone's situation during the Foundation Establishment Stage was different. After the spiritual energy in the dantian reached saturation, there would be a tendency to liquefy.
Foundation Establishment Stage was the process of completely liquefying the spiritual energy in the body. The Foundation Establishment Pill could help in this process, but it still depended on oneself.
As early as the Middle Ages, cultivators didn't need to use the Foundation Establishment Pill. They relied on themselves to compress the spiritual energy in the body and circulate it through their meridians to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Therefore, there weren't many Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators at that time, but as long as they reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, their strength was extraordinary.
Most of the time, they could form the Jin Dan. It wasn't like using the Foundation Establishment Pill to forcefully improve the process.
Even if they succeeded in reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, there would only be ten to twenty percent left in the Jin Dan Stage.
After listening to these teachings, Yi Tian realized that he seriously underestimated the Xuanyang True Fire.
It turned out that the cultivation of the Qi Disciple Stage was only to lay a solid foundation for the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The Xuanyang True Fire could directly raise the probability of reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage to more than eighty percent. It must have something to do with the True Fire Tempering Body in the spirit art.
He had been cultivating according to the spirit art. When he was at the Qi Disciple Eighth Layer, he had already begun the process of tempering his body.
At that time, he only thought that it was purely strengthening the bones and meridians. It turned out that it was to prepare for the Foundation Establishment Stage.
No wonder the Xuanyang True Fire said that the success rate could reach eighty percent.
In other words, as long as he used the Xuanyang True Fire to temper his body in the following time, the Foundation Establishment Stage would be a sure thing.
Although it was difficult to craft talismans and the success rate was too low, Yi Tian still persisted, even if he didn't succeed.
His precise control of spiritual energy had improved a lot. As long as he put in a little more effort, he believed that he would still succeed.
In this way, Yi Tian locked himself in the room and continued to craft talismans. When he was free, he would cultivate.
Every ten days, he would use the Xuanyang True Fire to temper his body.
It wasn't until three months later that Ning Yuxuan came to find him that he had no choice but to stop and go out to meet guests.
After the two people greeted each other, they sat down as guest and host. After drinking tea, Ning Yuxuan said the purpose of his visit, "This time Ning Ning is looking for help. She needs to go to the Black Dragon Pool of the Xuan Ling Sect in the west to find a stalk of Appearance Setting Grass to refine the Face Retaining Pill."
Seeing that Yi Tian didn't understand, Ning Yuxuan continued to explain, "This Face Retaining Pill is the favorite of female cultivators. As long as you take one, you can maintain your appearance and no longer change. Even after a hundred years, you will still look the same as when you took the pill. So this is also the pursuit of many female cultivators. Originally, this Appearance Setting Grass alone was not enough to refine it, but who told Ye Qingchen to go out and find three drops of Heavenly One Holy Water. Now the main ingredient is available. As long as the materials are gathered, you can refine it. "
After hearing this, Yi Tian understood the matter of the Face Retaining Pill, but why did Ning Yuxuan come to find him?
Seeing that Yi Tian was still a little confused, Ning Yuxuan could only say directly, "I am almost twenty-eight years old now. This time, fortunately, my ancestor shamelessly asked the head of the Alchemy Hall for a Foundation Establishment Pill. When he came back and gave it to me, he told me to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage as soon as possible, so as not to ruin my future."
It turned out that this time Ning Ning came to find him for help again. She really had no time to spare.
So she asked Yi Tian to help take care of Ning Ning and accompany her to the Black Dragon Pool to pick the Appearance Setting Grass.
At this moment, Yi Tian finally understood. He was here to look for bodyguards.
Recently, he had been cultivating at home and was bored, so it was good to go out for a walk.
Moreover, he was in the territory of the Xuan Ling Sect. The two sects were on good terms, so there shouldn't be a problem.
But he heard that Ning Yuxuan was preparing to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. That was a big matter, so he could ask about how he was preparing.
The two of them talked about this for a long time.
Ning Yuxuan had been preparing for the Foundation Establishment Stage for a long time. When he met Yi Tian, he was already in the early stage of the ninth level.
Cultivating to the peak of the ninth level for four to five years wasn't considered very good.
But who asked him to be a second generation cultivator? Under the protection of the ancestors, he didn't lack medicinal pills and places to cultivate.
He even asked for the Foundation Establishment Pill. If it was Yi Tian, he would have already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Fortunately, Yi Tian was still very grateful to Ning Yuxuan. He had also helped him a lot in the sect.
In the end, he found out that Ning Yuxuan didn't just have one pill, but two. He was a candidate for the Weapon Hall.
So he also had a quota from the Weapon Hall. In this way, his success rate of reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage was more than seventy percent. Yi Tian really envied him.
Then, Yi Tian also asked Ning Yuxuan to make talismans. He even took out his set of talisman paper, talisman brush, and the talisman he drew. Seeing this, Ning Yuxuan also sighed.
He also praised Yi Tian's fierceness, which made Yi Tian dizzy. Fortunately, after explaining, he suddenly understood.
Yi Tian couldn't be blamed for starting to refine talismans without asking clearly. Using the worst talisman brush and the lowest grade talisman paper mixed with the blood of a rank two monster beast, it would be strange if he could succeed.
Fortunately, Ning Yuxuan also said that Yi Tian's ability to control spiritual power surpassed his. Even under such bad conditions, he could still change the talisman to this level.
If he changed it to a high grade talisman brush and a rank four monster beast's blood and high grade talisman paper, the success rate would be more than eighty percent.
After hearing these words, Yi Tian also felt indignant. If he had known earlier, he would have gone to buy some talisman paper and brush. He wouldn't have been so greedy.
However, he really admired He Miao. Using such bad materials to make a fireball talisman, there might only be a few successful talismans. Talisman crafting sometimes depended on one's luck.
Ning Yuxuan also gave his opinion after looking at the talisman book. The basic talisman crafting methods recorded in it were relatively standard.
Moreover, Yi Tian only needed to thoroughly understand these basic talismans. In the future, if he had the opportunity to encounter a high grade talisman, he only needed to copy it and study it himself.
As for the materials to refine high grade talismans, he could use the high grade talisman paper made from the stalks of the Pearl White Corn.
The talisman brush made from the tail hair of a rank four Sky Howling Wolf, and the ink made from the blood of a rank four spirit beast and the Ink Crow.
This was the first time Yi Tian had heard of these things. Ning Yuxuan also pointed out that he could first go to the market and buy some inferior materials to practice.
Ordinary mid grade talismans wouldn't be a problem.
If he wanted to refine a talisman treasure, he would need to at least reach the Jin Dan stage or the late stage of the Foundation Establishment stage and use higher grade materials.
These were all things that Tool Refiners needed to understand.
After listening, Yi Tian looked at Ning Yuxuan from the corner of his eyes and asked, "How do you know so much?"
Ning Yuxuan felt embarrassed and could only confess.
It turned out that Yi Tian's three senior apprentice brothers each had their own strengths. Pei Ming specialized in refining tools and inscriptions, Qi Haosi specialized in formations, and Ning Yuxuan specialized in talismans. It was just that Yi Tian had never asked.
This time, Yi Tian jumped up. This third senior apprentice brother was too mean. He was hiding good things in his hands but didn't say anything.
If he didn't squeeze some out, he would be letting himself down. He smiled and promised that he could accompany Ning Ning.
But this time, he had to at least give him something useful.
When Ning Yuxuan saw this smile, he hurriedly covered his storage bag with his hand and said that he was going to leave.
He had been out for too long. There were still things to deal with in the Tool Hall, so he didn't want to disturb Yi Tian.
