Disciple, please let me go.

Chapter 407: The Middle Stage of Qi Refining

"Hua Hua Hua..."

Li Dong continued to refine the spirit stones, and the true energy in his body continued to flow like a big river.

After refining nearly two hundred spirit stones, the spiritual energy in his upper dantian had become completely complete and could no longer accommodate any additional true energy.

At this time, you need to break through the small realm.

The method to break through is also very simple. You just need to continuously compress the true Qi and make it more condensed.

But even in a small realm, there are still some cultivators who cannot break through.

Because their talents are too poor, the speed of increasing their spiritual energy through normal practice is too slow, and they can only rely on various elixirs to increase their practice speed.

Three-drug.

Once you swallow too many pills during your practice.

This will cause the true Qi to be mixed, making it difficult to compress and purify the true Qi.

But nothing is absolute, and there are some elixirs that are specifically designed to assist in breakthroughs.

There are also cultivators who specialize in alchemy. They practice by constantly taking various elixirs. In the end, they rely on the elixirs to break through the bottleneck of their level and ascend to become immortals.

The sheer number of resources needed to ascend through the path of alchemy is even more exaggerated than the number of resources needed to train a Four Seas Jue cultivator to ascend.

If you want to take this path, you must have a great opportunity, or a terrifying talent in alchemy, otherwise no sect would be willing to spend a lot of money to cultivate you.

So under normal circumstances, cultivators who swallow too many pills will often be stuck in a certain small realm and unable to break through.

But these problems do not exist for Li Dong.

His true Qi was either transformed from his own martial arts true Qi, or transformed from pure spiritual Qi of spirit stones, without any impurities.

The Dragon Transformation Technique suits him perfectly.

So when he started to compress his true energy, it was almost not difficult at all.

Soon, under Li Dong's strong compression, the true Qi completed its first transformation.

The amount of true qi in the upper dantian is only one tenth of the original amount, and it seems to be a lot less.

But the true qi, which was originally in the form of a mist, became much more viscous and tended to transform into liquid.

The concentration and intensity of a strand of true qi has at least doubled compared to before.

Under the same circumstances, the power and durability of the explosion will now be twice as much as before.

Even though the total amount of true energy has temporarily decreased, the strength in combat has actually doubled.

This is still the effect of the Dragon Transformation Qi, which only strengthens the body and changes the bloodline, and is not good at Taoist magic bursts.

Otherwise, the power of Taoist magic can be doubled.

But even if the improvement of the Dragon Transformation Technique had nothing to do with the explosion of Taoist magic, Li Dong still showed ecstasy in his eyes after he realized the breakthrough.

But he quickly suppressed his excitement and continued to refine the spirit stone in front of him to improve his Dragon Transformation Technique.

Before this, he also thought about whether to use these spirit stones to improve the progress of the Four Seas Technique so that the two skills can progress at the same pace.

But in the end, he gave up the idea.

He knew in elementary school that you can't have your cake and eat it too.

It sounds great to practice two techniques at the same time, but it will only greatly delay the progress of practice.

It is far better to first focus on one skill or method to make it stronger, so strong that when the Iron Armor Air-Sucking Gu is consumed, the combat power is still at the top of the pyramid.

Although the Four Seas Art is not inferior to the Dragon Transformation Art, it is also a top-notch cultivation technique. Once it is cultivated, the magic power will be as vast as the ocean. Not only can it easily overwhelm and crush cultivators of the same level, it can even enable cross-level battles.

However, the disadvantage of the Four Seas Art is also obvious, that is, the practice is slow and extremely time-consuming.

If one wants to rely on spirit stones to advance the progress of cultivation, a huge amount of progress is required.

Even if these three hundred spirit stones were invested in the Four Seas Art now, the effect they could produce would be minimal.

Therefore, instead of dispersing the efforts to improve the Four Seas Art and the Dragon Transformation Art, it would be better to concentrate all the cultivation resources into the Dragon Transformation Art at once.

As for the Four Seas Art, first rely on your own talent to improve slowly.

After the Dragon Transformation Technique is improved, I will then find a way to find spiritual stones to quickly improve the Four Seas Technique.

Thinking this in his mind, Li Dong immediately continued to refine the remaining spirit stones and continued to improve the Dragon Transformation Technique.

In the end, after all the true energy was consumed, the upper dantian, which originally had only one-tenth of the true energy left, increased to one-third again, directly saving Li Dong several months of hard work.

Noticing the changes in the upper dantian, Li Dong immediately showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Then, he grasped the Blood Dragon Halberd beside him, walked directly to the cave entrance and began to verify his current strength.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

As Li Dong wielded the Blood Dragon Halberd, it continuously transformed into streaks of blood light, so fast that it even left an afterimage in space.

A large amount of bloody evil energy erupted in front of the Blood Dragon Spear, making Li Dong look as terrifying as a demon.

Such a scene, in anyone's eyes, would be seen as a typical villain, without a trace of immortal spirit.

But Li Dong has never been a person who cares about his image.

All he cares about is strength.

Realizing that both his strength and speed had doubled again, his eyes were suddenly filled with relief.

"Fortunately, during my time on Sanxian Island, I practiced various weapons, including the Fang Tian Hua Ji. I also practiced the Overlord Ji inherited by Lu Bu. Otherwise, if I suddenly changed my weapon, it would only affect my strength."

"It's just that my current strength and speed are too strong. The Overlord Halberd is no longer enough to fully exert my strength and speed. In the future, I must continue to hone myself in battle and develop a halberd method that is completely suitable for me."

Li Dong unleashed the Overlord Halberd several times in a row with a look of relief on his face, and immediately made a decision in his heart.

Then he sat cross-legged again and began to practice today's Four Seas Technique.

But when he started practicing, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

His speed of practicing the Four Seas Secret Art actually increased again, by about one tenth of the original speed.

When Li Dong noticed this, he thought he was having an illusion at first.

It was not until he had practiced for several cycles in a row that Li Dong was sure that he was not having an illusion and that his speed in practicing the Four Seas Secret had indeed increased.

After some thought, Li Dong was immediately certain that the increase in the speed of practicing the Four Seas Art was because the Dragon Transformation Art had broken through a small realm.

"It seems that even a small breakthrough in the Dragon Transformation Technique will invisibly improve one's bloodline aptitude, so the speed of practicing the Four Seas Technique will increase."

"The improvement of a small realm can increase the speed of practicing the Four Seas Art by so much. Wouldn't the improvement of a large realm be even more terrifying?"

"It seems that even if it is to increase the speed of practicing the Four Seas Art, we must practice the Dragon Transformation Art to the end."

"What's more, the Dragon Transformation Technique can also improve combat power. Every time you break through a major realm, you can also awaken your innate magical power."

Countless thoughts kept popping up in Li Dong's mind, making him like the Dragon Transformation Art even more.
