He went over, picked up the finger and looked at it. At this moment, he could still feel a suffocating pressure from the broken finger.
He was a little frightened. If a broken finger could cause such pressure, how strong must Ming Daozi have been when he was alive.
But now the pressure from the severed finger is not as strong as the first time.
Su Ziyan knew that it was Ming Daozi who cast some kind of magic that prevented him from feeling the pressure of the severed finger. Otherwise, given his current condition, he would not be able to bear the pressure at all.
That's why he can hold the severed finger now. Otherwise, he would not be able to get close to it.
Then he placed the severed finger under the threshold of the door, letting the aura of the severed finger linger there. In this way, if wild beasts and strangers felt the pressure, they would not dare to approach here.
In this way, when you practice, you will not be disturbed by wild animals and strangers.
After Su Ziyan returned to the haystack, he sat cross-legged again. He swallowed a Qi-training pill, and the pill turned into fluid and flowed down into his abdomen.
Not long after, a warm current rose in Su Ziyan's dantian.
He quickly practiced the Great Circulation according to the formula and began to comprehend the Qi.
He held two spirit stones in his hands and tried to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stones, but because he had not yet comprehended the sense of qi, he was unable to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stones.
Although it is a low-grade spirit stone, it is enough for Su Ziyan now.
Su Ziyan practiced like this for six days, and on this day, while Su Ziyan was practicing, he suddenly felt a coolness in his head, and he felt the spiritual energy around him.
When he was practicing the spell, he could clearly see dots of white spiritual energy all around him, and the most of them were around the spirit stone he was holding in his hand.
They gathered together, and the spiritual energy in the air was floating slowly, but it was thin and very scattered.
At this time, he swallowed another pill and quickly practiced the magic formula, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into his body.
According to the method, the Great Circulation of Qi is circulated, guiding the spiritual energy in the body to flow through the meridians throughout the body.
After several large circulations, it finally gathers in the Dantian, where it slowly gathers and turns into a very faint ball of spiritual energy.
Su Ziyan was still practicing and had even forgotten that he was hungry. He was only thinking about entering the first level of Qi Refining as soon as possible and blocked out all other things.
He had just begun to comprehend the Qi sensation, so he had to speed up his practice and not slack off.
Because this is just the beginning, and you have not yet advanced to the first level of Qi Refining. Only when you enter the first level of Qi Refining can you become a cultivator.
Finally, one night half a month later, Su Ziyan was shocked.
He only heard a snapping sound inside his body, as if a stone was breaking. The spiritual energy around his body seemed to have found an outlet and rushed towards Su Ziyan's body, and was all absorbed by him.
Finally, he used his skills to gather all the spiritual energy in his dantian, forming a small ball of faint spiritual energy.
Su Ziyan slowly opened his eyes and exhaled, trying to control his excitement.
After practicing for such a long time, he finally advanced to the first level of Qi Refining. How could he not be excited?
But he soon recovered.
And this is just the beginning. My current cultivation level is the lowest among all realms, and there are still higher levels that I need to break through, so there is no need to be too excited now.
After Su Ziyan advanced to the first level of Qi Refining, he looked into the void in the distance.
He secretly made up his mind, "From now on, I am no longer an ordinary person. I will pursue greater strength, become stronger than others, and control my own destiny!"
"Since God has given me this opportunity, I will definitely trample those who look down on me under my feet."
After saying this, he clenched his fists and looked into the distance with a fixed gaze.
After Su Ziyan advanced to the first level of Qi Refining, he was already able to release his spiritual sense, but it was only ten feet away.
He closed his eyes and released his spiritual sense, so that everything within a ten-foot radius could be reflected in his mind, even clearer than what the eyes could see.
Things that he could not see with his naked eyes before, he could now see clearly with his spiritual sense, and they appeared in his mind.
The first thing he did was to look inward with his spiritual sense. He used his spiritual sense to see the thin ball of spiritual energy around himself. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but he felt that something was wrong with his magic power.
As he continued to look down, he was suddenly startled. His spiritual consciousness discovered a transparent lotus emitting colorful glass color in his dantian.
Some dots of fluorescent light that looked like colorful lights merged into his own aura. No wonder he found something wrong with the aura in his dantian.
He was shocked, because this lotus was exactly the one he found in Ming Daozi's storage ring. However, this lotus was surrounded by a round bead, but now it has disappeared, leaving only this lotus.
He was a little frightened because he didn't know whether the existence of such a thing would be dangerous. After all, Dantian is the place where magic power is stored. He didn't need to think about it to know that Dantian is a very important place.
He tried to move his spiritual consciousness closer to the lotus, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not get close to the lotus. It felt like his spiritual consciousness had encountered a wall and could not get close.
"What's going on? Why can't my spiritual sense get close?"
He tried to practice the technique, and the mana in his body began to circulate according to the technique. He breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, "Fortunately, the mana can still circulate, otherwise my practice would have been in vain."
He tried again and confirmed that his spiritual consciousness still could not get close to the lotus.
He thought for a long time, and when he was sure that the lotus posed no danger to him, he withdrew from his dantian.
He supported his chin with one hand, thought for a moment, then took out the storage bag and opened it with his spiritual sense.
He felt a little bit curious. He didn't expect that such a small bag could have such a large space inside. But when he thought about the fact that he was a cultivator, he realized that it was nothing strange.
Although the space inside the storage bag is large enough, it is still not as good as Ming Daozi's storage ring.
But he knew Ming Daozi's identity, so he felt relieved.
There were many things in the storage bag, including spirit stones, porcelain bottles containing elixirs, some weapons, herbs, formation flags, books, jade slips, talismans, and other things.
Su Ziyan took the books and jade slips and started reading.
After all, I don't know what's in the storage bag. Maybe I can find out the names and uses of these things in these books.
It took him three days to finish reading half of it, and he also read some jade slips and learned a lot of information.
Those weapons include low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade magical instruments. There are not many of them in the storage bag. There are only fourteen pieces of these grades in total.
There are also several items emitting spiritual light that are magic weapons, but he is unable to drive them now. He can only drive them after advancing to the Golden Elixir stage. Even if he has achieved great perfection in the foundation building stage, he cannot drive the magic weapons in the false elixir state.
Not to mention magic weapons, even magic tools cannot be driven with Su Ziyan's current cultivation level, unless Su Ziyan advances to the fourth level of Qi Refining, so that he can practice the art of controlling objects and drive magic tools to defend against enemies, but they are only low-grade magic tools.
However, as Su Ziyan's cultivation becomes stronger, he will be able to drive more powerful magical weapons.
But he didn't care. After all, there was no way to rush. He still thought it would be better to solve the problem at hand. After all, only when his cultivation level was high could he do more things.
Through those books and jade slips, he also learned about the functions of some elixirs, spiritual medicines, formations, and talismans.
Spirit stones are also divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and top-grade.
Su Ziyan discovered that all these types of spirit stones were in the storage bag, but the higher the grade, the fewer there were. For example, there were only five top-grade spirit stones, one thousand high-grade ones, tens of thousands of mid-grade ones, and five hundred thousand low-grade ones.
He also knew the names and uses of the rest of the things, and even saw the cultivation experience that Ming Daozi left for him.
At this time, he held it in one hand and scanned it with his spiritual sense.
Of course, what he is reading now is the cultivation experience of the Qi Refining Period. From the experience, he has learned a lot about the cultivation methods and taboos of the Qi Refining Period.
Su Ziyan continued to watch and didn't stop until noon the next day.
But he didn't feel tired, just a little hungry. He took a fasting pill and went out to take a bath in the pond.
He got up, dressed, and went to a tree to try what would happen if he used the magic power in his body to attack the tree.
Because I know from a book called "Odd Stories of Cultivation" that although those at the first level of Qi Refining are still unable to use magic, their physical condition will be much better than that of ordinary people.
He can also use his magic power to increase his strength and agility, so he is as powerful as ordinary low-level warriors, so he wants to test how strong he is now.
He began to circulate the magic power in his body, gathered it in his clenched fist, and then hit the tree trunk hard.
With a loud bang, a shallow dent was actually made on the tree trunk.
He stared at the small dent in amazement, unable to believe himself.
He looked inward and found that he had not used much spiritual energy in his body. It seemed that the magic power consumed was not particularly much. He did not continue to try because he already knew the result.
He stood there and thought for a while, then decided to go to the town to buy some clothes, otherwise it would not be good for him to look like this all day. He didn't look like a cultivator at all, but just a beggar, so he set off for Baishi Town.
It took him three hours to reach Baishi Town. After arriving there, he found that he did not feel tired at all.
In the town, he walked to a familiar old street with few people. Passers-by kept their distance from Su Ziyan with disgust.
But Su Ziyan didn't care, because he was used to these people treating him with such looks and behaviors.
He walked straight to a small attic with a red wooden door and stopped. He looked at a sign hanging in front of the door, which read the word "pawn".
When he was begging before, he and the old beggar had passed by here. After a long time, he knew what this small attic was used for.
Thinking of this, he walked in without hesitation.
The inside was clean and tidy. There was a tall counter surrounded by wooden shelves to isolate it from the outside. There was another layer of wooden shelves on the counter, and under the wooden shelves there was a window that was one foot high and eight inches wide.
Su Ziyan walked to the counter which was a head taller than him and called out to the dozing waiter, which startled the sleepy waiter and woke him up.
