My Simulated Longevity

Tai'an Island, within the island protection formation.

"Bottleneck? Disaster from heaven?" Li Fan looked at the "Miscellaneous Notes on Cultivation" he purchased and frowned slightly.

Since returning from Ten Thousand Immortals Island a few days ago, he has not stopped practicing for a moment.

I originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot and break through to the late stage of Qi refining in one fell swoop.

But he clearly felt that he was not far from a breakthrough, but no matter how hard Li Fan practiced, he still felt that he was still just a little bit behind.

It was this seemingly slight gap that stood in front of Li Fan like a chasm.

After reading "Practice Miscellaneous Notes", Li Fan finally confirmed that he had encountered a bottleneck.

In ancient times, there was a saying about the bottleneck of practice.

During the cultivation process, your cultivation may get stuck at a certain point and you may not be able to make any progress.

In today's world of immortality, bottlenecks have an even greater impact on monks.

Starting from the middle stage of Qi refining, every immortal cultivator will inevitably encounter bottlenecks when breaking through each small level.

This bottleneck cannot be overcome by hard work alone.

You must find the opportunity in your own unconsciousness to eliminate it and successfully break through.

This opportunity may be seeing a painting and drinking a cup of tea.

Or it could be a temporary epiphany, a flash of inspiration in the middle of a life-or-death struggle.

It may also be the casual remarks of others or the careful guidance of seniors.

In short, there is no rule to follow, you can only depend on the "number of days".

The existence of this bottleneck undoubtedly suppresses the cultivation speed of immortal cultivators to a great extent.

Like a disaster sent from heaven, it blocks the cultivators from practicing.

Therefore, the monks called it a disaster from heaven.

In short, this disaster has now befallen Li Fan.

His plan to break through in a short time fell through.

After sitting in the formation for several days, Li Fan didn't feel at all that he had a chance to break through.

Knowing that this matter could not be forced in a short period of time, he was not impatient and temporarily put aside the practice of "Xiao Yan Shui Jue" and started practicing "Qianji Jade World Golden Chapter" instead.

The "Qianji Yuhuan Golden Chapter" has five levels, which in ancient times corresponded to the five realms of innate, qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuanying.

The innate realm is a relatively special type of existence in certain sects' practices in ancient times.

What is important is to expel all the filthy atmosphere contaminated after birth and return to the state of innate purity.

Those sects believe that it will be easier to understand the way of heaven if they start practicing from the innate realm.

Both the speed and upper limit of cultivation will far exceed that of ordinary monks.

Tianji Sect is one of the sects that advocates that all cultivation begins from the innate world.

But since the new law replaced the old law, the monks have plundered the heaven and the earth and no longer pay attention to the unity of heaven and man.

Naturally, there is no such thing as Qi returning to heaven.

But the most basic part of the entire Qianji Jade World Golden Chapter is the innate realm.

So what Li Fan has to do is to use Qi refining instead of Xiantian to complete the first level of practice.

Generally speaking, if you replace a low realm with a high realm, it will naturally be downward compatible, and it will often be easier to practice.

But when it comes to the differences in practice systems between ancient and modern methods, it is not that easy.

In particular, Li Fan is only a beginner who has only been practicing for a few years, and his relevant knowledge reserve is seriously insufficient.

This is also the reason why it took Li Fan a long time just to get started.

This is after taking the Glazed Pill and having the bonus of understanding.

Now, when Li Fan reached a bottleneck in practicing "Xiao Yan Shui Jue", he began to practice the second level of "Qianji Yuhuan Golden Chapter".

He planned to practice the two techniques at the same time to the middle stage of Qi refining to see if he could break through the bottleneck.

After all, in this era, martial arts are precious, and ordinary monks like him who can practice multiple martial arts together are really rare.

According to the description in "The Golden Chapter of Qianji Yuhuan", after you successfully practice the second level of the technique, you will be able to master the magical power of "distinguishing opportunities".

The so-called "discrimination of qi", as the name suggests, is the ability to distinguish and sense the various qi movements between heaven and earth.

This is also the foundation of "Qianji Yuhuan Golden Chapter".

Only by first distinguishing and sensing the qi movement can we capture and refine it later.

The difficulty of practicing the second level of skills is even beyond Li Fan's imagination.

If "Xiao Yan Shui Jue" tells you how to practice in a simple and clear way without any nonsense.

So this "Qian Ji Jade World Golden Chapter" hides how to practice in a bunch of pretentious words, allowing you to guess and figure it out yourself.

Not only that, but from time to time it is also mixed with some insights into the way of heaven, anecdotes from the ancient practice world, etc.

All kinds of chaos were mixed together, making Li Fan feel dizzy and blood boiling.

After reading it again, I seem to understand it. It was only when I started practicing that I realized that I actually didn’t understand anything.

Fortunately, Li Fan is not someone who gives up easily.

Even though there were many difficulties, Li Fan remained patient and studied every word.

Another year has passed in Li Fan's hard practice.

There has been almost no progress in the cultivation of "Thousands of Machines and Jade World Golden Chapter".

Li Fan was not discouraged.

When I went to Wanxian Island for the second time to receive my agent reward, I exchanged 800 contribution points and 5 Tai'an fruits accumulated over the past two years for some ancient skills training experience.

Afterwards, Li Fan started the auxiliary training mode in the Tianxuan Realm.

I didn’t practice the exercises, I just read these insights and compared them with my own experience accumulated over the past year.

Like an enlightenment, all the questions that I had never been able to figure out in the past were now answered.

Seeing the wonderful things, Li Fan couldn't help but dance with joy.

At this moment, Li Fan finally understood the so-called Taoism in the morning and death at night.

Five days passed quickly.

Li Fan, who had some understanding, hurried back to Tai'an Island and began to retreat again.

When I started practicing again this time, I was really different from before.

All the obscure and difficult aspects of the technique have been clarified, and there will naturally be no obstacles to practice.

Li Fan quickly became immersed in it.

You don’t know the years of practice.

On this day, a golden mist-like spiritual energy that was completely different from the water-based spiritual energy suddenly appeared in Li Fan's dantian.

Li Fan opened his eyes suddenly, his face beaming with joy.

"I finally completed the second level of the "Qianji Jade World Golden Chapter"." Li Fan let out a long sigh of relief.

After stretching his slightly stiff body, he turned his head and looked at the time, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

Unexpectedly, this retreat actually lasted for a full year.

In Li Fan's senses, he just felt like he had slept.

Fortunately, hard work always pays off.

Li Fan's heart moved, and as the golden spiritual energy gathered in his eyes, he performed "Discrimination".

"Let me see what the so-called qi mechanism of heaven and earth is like." Li Fan was a little excited when he tried his magical power for the first time.

He looked towards Tai'an Island.

But he saw a scene that made him feel terrified.

Thick black death aura, like dense dark clouds, enveloped the entire Tai'an Island!

The thick death aura is almost like substance, making Tai'an Island in the daytime look like the underworld!

Remove the spell and cast it again.

After reading it several times, Li Fan was sure that he had read it correctly.

"How could this be?" Li Fan was surprised.

Suddenly, he seemed to finally remember something, and quickly used the Water Mirror Technique to look at himself in the mirror.

only saw,

Li Fan in the mirror, the death energy gathering on his head is a thousand times higher than that of the mortals on the island!
