Chapter 21: Knowing my sin is only spring and autumn
For Qianyuan's blood-burning skill, there are many people in the Cangxi Continent immortal cultivation world who are not unfamiliar, and they can be described as famous.
However, the name is notorious, a few months ago, Zhifeng Zhenren returned from a big defeat in Lingjian Mountain, although in order to look good, both sects concealed the details, but the negative evaluation of Qianyuan's blood burning skill came out.
It was the Spirit Sword Elder who was the first to denigrate this evil sect exercise, but it is also an indisputable fact that Zhifeng developed a large number of low-level monks in the White Moon Country through the Qianyuan Burning Blood Technique, and afterwards, the Ten Thousand Immortals League sent a large number of monks to form a research team, and through Zhifeng's oral confession and the remnants of the Thousand Spirits Sect, materials, etc., a comprehensive study of the improved exercises at that time was carried out.
The result was sighing, and the conclusion of a comprehensive analysis of Qianyuan's Blood Burning Skill just supported Elder Lingjian's inference: this was a crooked evil path with too many flaws.
The explanations put forward by the Spirit Sword Elder such as the shaking of the Dao heart and the bystanders seem to many people to be cloudy and foggy, and it is difficult to understand the true meaning, so to describe it in simple words, the Qianyuan Blood Burning Skill cannot really help people to practice, it is like a lingering spring dream, the dream is refreshing and boundless, but it cannot change anything practical.
The basic principle of Qianyuan Blood Burning Gong is to burn people's most valuable wealth: lifespan, in exchange for a large amount of mana and aura, and then promote the progress of cultivation. However, not to mention cultivating immortals, mana is not all, and in terms of this exchange alone, it is not equivalent. To give a simple example, a monk of the Sixth Harmony Spiritual Root, who has been practicing penance for thirty years, can reach the highest level of Qi cultivation, and if he uses the Qianyuan Burning Blood Skill, he may be able to cultivate to the same level in just a few years. However, the life span consumed is more than 60 years, and if you are not careful, you will even die suddenly due to the violent burning of your life. Zhifeng did his best to improve the exercises, but he only avoided sudden death, slightly increased the conversion rate, and turned sixty years into ...... Fifty-nine years, the essence has not changed.
This is very ridiculous, Qianyuan Blood Burning Gong is regarded by Zhifeng as a great opportunity for everyone to become immortals, but in essence, it basically blocks people's possibility of going further. If a hundred-year-old monk is expected to succeed in building a foundation through penance, then thanks to the blessing of Qianyuan's blood-burning skill, he can only cultivate to the top of Qi cultivation at most before he burns out his longevity, and because the cultivation progress is too fast, such cultivation is like a castle on the floating soil, vulnerable to attack.
It must be said that the only use of Qianyuan Burning Blood Gong should be to break through in the battle, for example, due to insufficient qualifications, cultivation is stuck in a certain bottleneck and cannot be broken through, and when Shouyuan is about to end, gamble on Qianyuan Burning Blood Skill, or can make some breakthroughs, and extend the life expectancy a little, which is the most reluctant, but if this method is popularized all over the world and used as a magic weapon to accelerate cultivation, it will be ridiculous.
If it was in the chaotic era thousands of years ago, how this kind of foolish practice spread didn't care about other people's business, but now that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has been formed, the cultivation world will never tolerate this kind of opportunistic tricks that are prevalent.
So when Wang Lu proposed this plan, he was immediately strongly questioned.
"You have a brain cramp, right, you can come up with this kind of idea, so you are not afraid of being caught and beaten by your master?"
"Ridiculous, what reason does she have to trouble me? It's not that the IQ tax collected is not distributed to her......"
"You know that she hates Qianyuan's blood-burning skill the most, okay."
"Yes, I don't think so."
When Wang Lu said this, he asked a little funny: "Sister Ling, you haven't thought about it, where did I learn the Qianyuan Blood Burning Skill?" ”
Xiao Ling'er was stunned: "Where is it?" ”
"Even if you are a scholar, you are not born to know it, any knowledge must have a source, this improved Qianyuan Burning Blood Skill, even the most knowledgeable master of the sect, Liu Xian, will not ...... Guess where I learned it from? ”
“…… No way!? There's no reason for that! Speaking of which, no matter how sluggish Xiao Ling'er was, she realized that the person who taught the exercises was Wang Wu himself!
"It's not so much that my master hates Qianyuan Burning Blood, but that she hates being a fool who regards Qianyuan Burning Bloodburn as a shortcut to cultivating immortals, and I am very consistent with her point of view: stupidity must die. There is no shortcut to cultivating immortals. But the Qianyuan Blood Burning Gong itself is innocent, not to mention that even if it is a piece of, as long as it is used, it will have its effect, and I use the Qianyuan Blood Burning Gong not to take a shortcut. ”
“…… So you're doing it for fun? ”
"It has nothing to do with fun or not, this is the only way for the development of intellectual education. Think about it carefully, what kind of people are we developing? If you want money, you don't have money, you want qualifications, you want to be a waste without understanding! Such a person, in my master's words, what kind of immortal can he cultivate if he doesn't eat at home honestly? The only desirable thing about them is the natural longevity, so if they have to cultivate immortals, why don't they fight hard? ”
The saint was puzzled: "But what if you fight hard? It's not worth exchanging the Qianyuan Blood Burning Skill for cultivation at all......"
"Why isn't it worth it? It is true that a hundred years of penance cultivation of the Six Harmony Spiritual Roots are expected to build a foundation, but who of these ordinary people can have a hundred years to squander? In the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance sect, disciples have no worries about food and clothing, and they only need to concentrate on cultivation, but mortal beings can't do it, if they don't cultivate, they will starve to death, if they don't weave, they will have no clothes to wear, there are too many trivial things to distract, and I don't have time to wait for them to succeed in cultivation, and the sect only gives a total of one year to experience the training time! If you want to fully squeeze the labor force, of course, you must use the Qianyuan Burning Blood Skill to make their cultivation thorough, and only if you have cultivation a moment earlier, can you contribute to the development of Zhijiao as soon as possible. Zhijiao is currently in a period of development, and if it can be one step faster, it must be one step faster. ”
"But those who burn Shouyuan, aren't they too bad?"
Wang Lu sneered: "Sister Ling, when did you become so sweet?" If there are no predecessors who have suffered losses and planted trees, how can future generations enjoy the shade? Now the rapid development of Zhijiao, thanks to this group of newcomers who have attracted qi into the body, on the one hand, they have exerted an advertising effect, and on the other hand, they have worked hard to build infrastructure...... Do you want us to build it ourselves? Without these complete facilities, how can Zhijiao attract high-end talents to join the alliance? Last week, three more Qi cultivators were interested in joining the Zhi Sect...... If you wait for the waste to succeed in cultivation, don't expect the wisdom to develop in this life. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Lu sighed with emotion: "The development of a sect, the accumulation of its original capital is bloody and inhumane, Sister Ling, you have to learn to adapt to this."
"After all, you're just collecting money in a righteous and strict way, right?" Xiao Ling'er was obviously still a little indignant.
"Tsk, you are underestimating me, so far the IQ tax collected by the Intelligence Tax Bureau, I have invested all of it in the construction of the sect, and it has not fallen into my own pocket."
For Wang Lu's statement, Xiao Ling'er felt quite novel, Zhijiao has developed rapidly, but after developing for so long, what is the income and how much investment, only Wang Lu himself knows, he has an account book in his heart, but he has never shown it to others.
"Are you so selfless?" Xiao Ling'er was very skeptical.
Wang Lu shrugged: "It has nothing to do with the selflessness of the Grand Duke, the basic quality of a professional adventurer is to recognize the goal and concentrate his energy. I didn't go down the mountain to get rich, I established this sect, but also to manage and use the IQ tax well, not to enrich my own pockets, my goal has always been clear, that's all. ”
"Tsk, your righteous and awe-inspiring face is really unpleasant to look at."
However, regardless of whether Xiao Ling'er looks pleasing to the eye or not, under the leadership of Wang Lu, this sect that made a fortune in Gouershan has developed rapidly, and it has exceeded the imagination of many people
Three months later, when the Seven Star Gate finally freed up its hands to prepare to march into Dog Ear Mountain, it was no longer a fragile sect that had just started and could only rely on two small foundation builders who had surrendered to the mutiny to support the scene, but a behemoth with more than 10,000 followers and a powerful force spanning multiple prefectures and counties.
In terms of grassroots influence, Zhijiao has reached the level of sixty percent of the Seven Star Sect in just three months, and because of the novelty of the theory and the rapid development, it has really attracted some scattered cultivators and alliances, and the cultivation is too high, but the miscellaneous soldiers who practice qi to build the foundation have collected more than a dozen people, and the lineup is already good among the sects that do not enter the stream.
Therefore, when the vanguard army of the Seven Star Gate entered Dog Ear Mountain for half a day, they were beaten by a series of sharp sword lights, and fled to the top of the barren mountain in embarrassment, crying and reporting the results with a sad face.
The head of the Seven Stars was also taken aback, although he had expected that things might be bad, but he didn't expect it to be so bad! Qixingmen has been developing in the Daming Kingdom for many years, and several larger sects in the vicinity are more familiar, and this time before setting off, I specially greeted them, confirming that they were not the most fatal sects, but I didn't want the real culprit to surface, it was not easier to deal with than those sects at all!
There are more than ten monks above the grade of Qi practice, and four or five people are building the foundation, which is already a force that cannot be underestimated in the territory of the Ming Kingdom, although there is still a big gap compared with the Seven Star Gate, but the other party did not open all the hole cards, and at the same time, the Seven Star Gate can not easily take out all the strength and people to the death.
Once a war starts with it, even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory, so in desperation, the head of the Seven Stars can only suppress the anger in his heart.
"Let's talk."
It is true that we should talk about it first, and it was only at this time that Qixingmen realized that they didn't know their opponent at all, who the other party was, where it came from, and what it wanted, I didn't know anything!
So, with whom? Of course, it was Xie Zhi and He Yun, these two defected without saying a word, even if the Seven Star Gate did not pursue it, they should be a little ashamed in their hearts, and among the other sects, it was more convenient for the Seven Star Gate to contact these two people.
Two days later, the head of the Seven Star Sect made an appointment to meet Xie Zhi, of course, it was a private meeting, and there was still a bit of luck in his heart for the elder he had personally recruited a few years ago.
However, after meeting, Xie Zhi just smiled bitterly: "Boss...... I sincerely advise you, go back, this is not an opponent you can handle. ”
