The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 18 Qianlongyuan

As for the 0.1 behind the 200 panel, it is very telling and a very fatal thing.

As far as the Qi refining period is concerned, once the amount of spiritual power accumulated reaches the latter number, he will be able to improve his level.

However, this number is usually affected by qualifications and practice skills. Generally speaking, the bigger the number, the better.

The larger the number, the higher the potential and the stronger the strength.

According to his many years of observation, for ordinary monks with four spiritual roots, the number after them is at most 100.

In other words, a monk on the first level of Qi Refining with Four Spiritual Roots can successfully advance to the second level of Qi Refining if his spiritual power circulates in the body for 100 times. This takes about three months.

For the same basic technique, the three spiritual roots can be about 150, the double spiritual roots are 200, and the heavenly spiritual roots are more terrifying, directly 400.

However, what is even more speechless is that the speed of practicing Tianling Root is four times that of the Four Spiritual Roots. It is not surprising that it is even faster, and the purer the spiritual root, it is also of great benefit to the breakthrough of the realm.

They are stronger than you, can practice faster than you, and can achieve realm breakthroughs more easily, so the world of cultivation places so much emphasis on the quality of spiritual roots.

And Zhang Jingyuan is dying. Without the help of additional resources, it will take him five years to become a second-level Qi Refining monk.

Thinking of this, no matter how calm Zhang Jingyuan was, he still felt like his scalp was numb.

After taking a long breath and looking at the sky, Zhang Jingyuan felt that there could be another cycle. Zhang Jingyuan took the time to visualize the three-wheeled sun again.

Only then did Zhang Jingyuan realize that hard work could make up for his laziness. This was the only method that a poor man like him, who needed resources but had no resources and no background, had to make progress if he wanted to make progress.

If you can improve your cultivation while lying down, who would want to stand?

As for some so-called disciples of the Immortal Family, the long lifespan they have gained through cultivation is not used to meditate and practice hard, but to enjoy life wantonly. Anyway, with the blessing of various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they can The speed of cultivation is already fast.

There are a lot of people from the Immortal family who think that ascetic cultivation is a waste of their lives, and it is not surprising that these people are often more likely to be seduced by demonic cultivation.

Early the next morning, before Zhang Meifeng came back, Zhang Jingyuan removed the various formations at the door.

Although with the strength of Zhang Meifeng, a third-level Qi Refining monk, there is absolutely no possibility of seeing what kind of formation he has set up, he still has to be cautious. He does not want to prematurely expose something that is not in line with his current status. .

After a period of time, he can earn some spiritual stones and move out. After all, he has too many secrets now, and Zhang Meifeng is his biological mother. Although she is careless and has nerves as thick as a ten thousand-year-old tree, she can't handle what happens. ? Isn't it?
As for whether Zhang Meifeng will be sad after he leaves, based on his three years of experience in getting along with Zhang Meifeng day and night, no!

She will only be happy and at ease, not having to cook for one more person, wash one more person's clothes, or change one more set of sheets and quilts. Fortunately, no one will nag her from now on.

As expected, Zhang Meifeng was overjoyed when she saw that Zhang Jingyuan was actually practicing and only needed to eat one meal a day, and praised him as a good son.

The foundation of a monk is spiritual energy. As long as there is a breath of spiritual energy, he will not die. It doesn't matter if he eats the wind or drinks the dew. Otherwise, why would there be such a thing as Bigu?

In addition to better absorbing nutrients and strengthening one's own flesh and blood, eating is just a habit that was formed during the mortal period.

Not to mention those great masters who retreat for tens of thousands of years, even foundation-building monks can stay in retreat for a year or two without eating or drinking.

But to be honest, although Zhang Meifeng is lazy, she cooks well, even better than Zhao Mingyang's mother.

But it is a pity that Zhang Meifeng obviously will not give Zhao Mingyang too many opportunities to come over to eat and drink.

On the contrary, every time Zhao Mingyang came to play with Zhang Jingyuan, thinking that he would get a meal this time, he was often dismissed by Zhang Meifeng with "Jing Bao, please take Mingyang out for a good meal", which became a reason for Zhang Meifeng not to cook.

Five days passed like this. Early in the morning, Zhang Jingyuan was dragged up by Zhao Mingyang and rushed to Qianlong Courtyard. Today was the first day of school.

Zhang Jingyuan and the others took a flying boat this time and could get back in three hours. However, most of the other classmates were honest, or poverty limited them and they could only spend five days riding a carriage.

This is also the reason why Qianlong Academy gives these students half a month's leave during the annual Spiritual Root Testing Conference.

Zhao Mingyang even heard that the Qianlong Courtyard in other cities would be open for an additional ten days and a half. The purpose was to allow these students, who were already considered adults, to enjoy their first trip as adults.

Why do all the good things belong to others in Qianlongyuan? Zhao Mingyang thought with some resentment.

Qianlongyuan is similar to the middle school Zhang Jingyuan went to in his last life. The only difference is that what is taught here is the Taoist scriptures compiled by various great masters in the world of cultivation and the basic Qi-nourishing techniques.

These so-called Taoist scriptures are not cultivation methods, but the same things as the Analects of Confucius, the Doctrine of the Mean, the Four Books and Five Classics, and history books.

As for the various knowledge about the world of cultivation that is commonly found in novels, don’t even think about monsters, herbs, spiritual veins, etc. This is something that can only be obtained by testing out four spiritual roots or above at the age of sixteen, and then entering a Taoist temple or sect. .

Those who specialize in literacy teaching are called Youlin Pavilion. They enter the school at the age of five. After studying and passing the exam, they can enter Qianlongyuan. There is no age limit. When he arrived at Qianlongyuan, Zhao Mingyang suddenly noticed that everyone looked at him differently, with envy, jealousy, and hatred all over his face.

Oh, no, he made a mistake. Everyone was not looking at him, but at Zhang Jingyuan next to him.

No one expected that Zhang Jingyuan, who usually kept quiet and always claimed to have useless spiritual roots like them, would actually make a splash at the spiritual root testing conference and become the fourth spiritual root, and he was not the worst low-grade.

What a scheming person!

They really didn't know that it was necessary for Zhang Jingyuan to hide it from them with just one Four Spiritual Roots?

Or does Zhang Jingyuan think that once his four spiritual roots are exposed, everyone will definitely take advantage of him?
Are you kidding? Cultivation is not that easy. With Zhang Jingyuan's qualifications and no background at all, it is unlikely that he can become a foundation-building monk. What advantage can they take?
Even if Zhang Jingyuan can become a foundation-building monk in the future, they will probably become a handful of loess. At most, future generations will be able to get a little care from Zhang Jingyuan.

So just relying on the four spiritual roots, I expected them to support Zhang Jingyuan's stinky feet without even thinking about it.

Not to mention, it’s not like they haven’t heard of it. It has happened before. A student with a broken spiritual root joined the four-spirited student of the same class and worked for him, almost becoming a slave and a maid, and even spent all his family wealth to support his practice. Just hope that the other party can recognize their efforts and support them.

But basically, most of them can't escape the fate of being eaten up and kicked away.

It’s not for nothing that ruthlessness is the best among practitioners.

So, except for a few classmates who were familiar with Zhang Jingyuan, who came over to say hello and congratulations to Zhang Jingyuan, most of the others looked on with cold eyes, and even showed a strong sense of alienation.

From the eyes of these classmates, Zhang Jingyuan could not help but chuckle in his heart as he could tell what they were thinking.

I have to say, this idea is quite good and quite correct.

As the saying goes, no desire leads to strength. As long as I lie flat enough, the sickle cannot cut me.

The school teacher came, and after briefly speaking a few words and congratulating Zhang Jingyuan for becoming the only Four Spiritual Roots in their class, he took the students to the only pulse opening room in Qianlong Courtyard.

In fact, the so-called pulse opening room is nothing more than opening a spiritual vein channel to introduce spiritual energy into the room. There is no difference at all from the home spiritual pulse channel mentioned by Zhang Jingyuan before. It is just that the room is larger and the spiritual energy is more.

It is undoubtedly very difficult for students with five spiritual roots like Zhao Mingyang to condense a ray of spiritual energy of their own, so they must use the sufficient spiritual energy in the pulse opening room to create a good practice environment for themselves.

If there is no pulse opening room, most of these five spiritual roots can only be the same as before this era. They will be ignorant and confused all their lives, and they will not even know what cultivation is.

The Pulse Opening Room is such a precious place, so naturally it is impossible for Zhao Mingyang and the others to stay as long as they want. After all, there are ten classes at their level in the entire Qianlong Academy.

Taking the class as a unit, each class can enter for half an hour, and must come out when the time is up.

But the only advantage is that Qianlongyuan does not limit the time students can enter. When students have successful pulse opening, they are not allowed to enter the pulse opening room again. As long as the pulse opening is not opened, students can always come in.

After all, not to mention that the student has no pulse opening, naturally he cannot consume the spiritual energy in the pulse opening room. At most, the spiritual energy can nourish the body and strengthen the body.

In today's world of cultivation, if you don't even have the first level of Qi Refining, no one will want to find a job in the future, and even the Craftsman Hall will not accept non-monk students.

This is not Zhang Jingyuan's previous life when he went to school. The high school teacher said, "This knowledge point, you university teachers will teach it." When he got to college, the university teacher said, "You guys learned this knowledge point in high school, so I won't talk about it." If blocked.

The Craftsman Hall said it wouldn't accept non-monk students, so it just wasn't accepted. If the students didn't successfully open their pulses and got the first ray of spiritual energy, it was Qianlongyuan's fault.

When it was Zhang Jingyuan's turn for his class, Zhang Jingyuan raised his legs to go in, but was stopped by their teacher.

"Zhang Jingyuan, you have four spiritual roots and cannot enter."

Hearing this, Zhang Jingyuan said with an aggrieved look: "Teacher, I haven't opened my pulse yet, why can't I go in?"

"It's been so many days since the Four Spiritual Roots have been opened, but you still haven't opened your pulse?"

The teacher was stunned for a moment and said in surprise.

You know, although the Taoist League recommends that everyone wait until they are sixteen years old before starting to practice.

But since those parents are impatient and test their spiritual roots in advance, do you think they will let their children practice cultivation in advance?

Therefore, almost 10% of students with spiritual roots of 14 and above do not need a pulse opening room.
