Chapter 97: Laying Foundations (Part 2)
Five purple energies are separated from the five internal organs, and Luo Yu's fingers guide them to wander inside the body. The broken meridians are repaired bit by bit; the damaged dan Tian is slowly nourished.
Finally, the purple gas had repaired all the meridians and dantian.
"Boom——" Luo Yu seemed to hear a loud noise in her body, her dantian suddenly expanded, her meridians surged violently, and her sea of consciousness also expanded abruptly under the traction.
After the silent explosion, there was even more intense pain, a hundred times stronger than before, and a thousand times more painful than when she was dying two months ago.
Luoyu gritted her teeth tightly. She knew that the foundation had reached a critical moment.
Before entering the secret realm, she had expected to lay her foundation in one or two years, so she had flipped through many jade slips about foundation establishment and asked her brother about various matters related to it. However, she hadn't expected that the time for laying her foundation would come so soon, not even having time to leave the secret realm, fortunately, she was well-prepared, otherwise, she would have been caught off guard at this moment.
Huang Zixi had previously warned her repeatedly that if she reached this level and still hadn't stopped, the possibility of building a foundation was very great, and she must hold on.
Luoyu took a deep breath, circulating her spiritual energy and letting it flow slowly through the meridians to adapt to the new environment. The purple gas followed closely behind, gradually repairing the damaged meridians until they returned to the dantian, healing the wound in the dantian.
The process was painful, after the meridians surged violently, it seemed like every inch of her body was a wound. After the purple energy repaired them, she felt a coolness and comfort, as if she were suspended between water and fire, with one side being scorched by flames and the other soothed by warm water.
Luo Yu silently recited the Chaotic Decision, repeatedly compressing the dense spiritual energy in his dantian.
Soon, the first drop of spiritual liquid appeared, followed by a second and third drop.
In Dantian, a small rain started falling. The more it accumulated in Dantian, the more it fell, but the amount of rainwater was much greater than the accumulated liquid in Dantian.
A fine rain fell in the space, and the dry barren land slowly became moist.
Inside the cave, Luo Yu was shrouded in layers of rain and fog, her figure invisible.
Deep within the underground spiritual vein, spiritual energy is being swept upwards. At first, it was only within a radius of 1 li that the spiritual energy was affected, but slowly it extended to 5 li, then 10 li...
The rain in the space is getting heavier and heavier. However, a 10-square-meter space was filled with rainwater, and the water level kept rising, getting closer and closer to the dark gray sky.
"Rumble..." A loud noise echoed through the space, and a severe pain that had never been felt before transmitted from Dan Tian, Luo Yu instantly fainted and fell to the side on the magic array.
The law array is still in operation, and the spiritual rain mist automatically enters Luoyu's body continuously.
Compared to the Great Perfection of Building Foundation and Cultivating Qi, it's not just that spiritual power increases by more than tenfold, but also that the body can automatically circulate internal energy, absorbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth into the interior.
During battle, Qi Refining stage cultivators exhaust their spiritual energy and can only stop to circulate their techniques to absorb spiritual power; while Foundation Building stage cultivators fight while drawing in spiritual energy into their bodies. Who can last longer is self-evident.
Of course, this kind of self-running absorption of spiritual energy is very slow. Luo Yu's current difference is because of the influence of the space within her body.
At this moment, space is expanding its territory, how can the slow speed satisfy it? The purple gas group is rotating at high speed. Pulling the spiritual energy into the dantian continuously, and then pouring into the space from the dantian.
Finally, the upheaval came to an end, and the stability of space reached 100 square meters. The sky rose to a height of 10 meters, but it was still gray and hazy.
The barren land had turned into soft black soil. In the middle was a puddle of water holding a thin layer of spiritual liquid.
Three months have passed since she closed herself off from the world.
Luoyu was woken up and opened her blurry eyes. She saw a handsome face appearing above her.
His skin was fair and smooth, his eyebrows were clear and long, his eyes were bright and black, his nose was high and straight, his lips were distinct. He was a handsome man! Luo Yu nodded slightly.
"How are you? Did the foundation building succeed?" The handsome man's voice was somewhat urgent.
Three months had passed, and Huang Shimei still hadn't come out. He really couldn't deceive himself anymore; he knew that Huang Shimei must have failed in her foundation-building, and whether she could survive was an unknown quantity. His heart filled with sorrow, he pushed open the door and came in, only to find Huang Shimei safe and sound, with a rosy complexion, but simply lying unconscious on the ground.
"Huh, Zhū Jī?" Luo Yu Xiao sat up, remembering the moment before she fainted, a severe pain in her dantian, was it...
Bang! Two heads collided.
"Sorry." Hou Yong hastily apologized and took two steps back.
He saw Huang Shimei's face turn pale first, then a joyful expression appeared, and her sweet smile dazzled his eyes.
Luoyu's mood was extremely good at this moment, and it wasn't until a while later that she discovered Houyong had been staring at her all along. Oh, he was still waiting for her response.
"It's nothing, nothing at all." Luo Yu rubbed her forehead, and with a gentle stroke of her spiritual energy, the redness and swelling disappeared. A smile spread across her face as she said: "I've successfully built my foundation!"
Hou Yong revealed a smile: "Congratulations on successfully building your foundation!"
As for what happened inside, she didn't say and he didn't ask, as long as they knew she was safe.
"Hehe, thank you, thank you for bringing me here. This formation is of great help to me." Luoyu expressed his sincere gratitude, and the resentment he had towards him before also dissipated. Having benefited from him, how could he still be angry?
"I'm glad it can be of help to you." Hou Yong's words were sincere and polite.
Next, the two fell silent, Hou Yong didn't know what to say, fearing that as soon as he opened his mouth, Luo Yu would ask him to leave; Luo Yu also didn't know what to say to him, after all they were enemies before and now strangers.
"It's been four months already, and there are only two months left before the Secret Realm closes. What plans do you have?" Luo Yu finally asked aloud.
Hou Yong's expression turned gloomy and he lowered his eyes: "En, haven't thought it through, maybe I'll go to the secret realm to take a look around and see if there's anywhere you want to go?"
"Oh, I'm going to the prairie to collect antler grass. Let's part ways here then." Luo Yu was in high spirits, thinking that if she ran into that wolf on the prairie, she could give it a good thrashing.
Hou Yong opened his mouth and finally took out an object from the storage bag: "This bamboo slip records the ancient gathering spirit array and the required materials, I think you should be able to use it."
"Ten-thousand-year gold-inlaid jade bamboo?" Luo Yu exclaimed, not taking the bamboo slice. "A golden line appears on the jade-colored bamboo slice after a thousand years, and a golden bar appears after ten thousand years. A palm-sized bamboo slice has a half-inch wide golden pattern, so it should be around 20,000-year-old gold-inlaid jade bamboo, enough to make a top-grade spiritual instrument. Now it's being used to carve array patterns, what a waste."
"This was left by the master of the cave, he said that the ancient gathering spirit array on the ground has a profound pattern, and it's not something that can be recorded with ordinary materials. Even if you and I have suitable materials in our hands, but we are only at the foundation-building stage of our divine consciousness, I'm afraid we still won't be able to record it successfully." Hou Yong handed the bamboo slip to Luo Yu, "My array method level is average, I can't comprehend this array, so I want to give it to you. If you can comprehend this array, please help me draw the gathering spirit array."
