After Li Ji followed his brothers into the Bamboo Forest Garden, he came to an open place.

The breeze was blowing, the clothes were fluttering, and the Qifa Daoist had been waiting for a long time.

"Listen, everyone, there are only two months left before the Spirit Conference. I believe you also know that this is a once-in-a-century event, and there are outstanding representatives from all sects and factions in the immortal cultivation world. I also hope that you will seize this opportunity to win glory for this academy, and not lose the face of kamikaze academy after repeated defeats like you do in the annual examination every year. Wei Hu, Yang Kan, Lan Qin, Pei Di, and Chang Yizhi, from today onwards, the five of you will be strictly trained, and you are not allowed to go down the mountain without permission. After listening to Master's words, Wei Hu and the others frowned, their faces were embarrassed, and finally they all lowered their heads helplessly and remained silent.

The Qifa Dao Master didn't seem to notice their abnormality, and continued: "As for Li Ji, since he has never learned the Immortal Cultivation Method, let's start from the most basic and familiarize myself with the rules while cultivating the basic exercises. Since your five senior brothers are going to be in retreat and cultivation from today, your daily teaching will be ...... by your teacher" Qifa Dao Master's speech was suddenly interrupted, only to hear a delicate voice sound from above the bamboo forest.

"The basic exercises and door rules of the junior brother will be taught by me, the senior sister! Hehe!" Xinyan didn't know where to come out, and in a flash, she had come to the side of the Qifa Dao Chief.

"You ......" Qifa Daoist frowned slightly, and said in annoyance, "You can't manage yourself well, and you can still teach others?"

"Daddy, I promise to teach you well. Isn't it? Xinyan turned to Wei Hu and winked, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "I used to be taught by my father or brother, and finally a junior brother came, as a close disciple of the Kamikaze Academy, a good daughter of the little sister and father, I also have the responsibility to teach the junior brother well and make a contribution to the Kamikaze Academy, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, the little sister is very right. Wei Hu nodded hurriedly and echoed, he usually had a very good relationship with the little junior sister, and he knew her character the most, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart: The little junior sister is afraid of hardships and doesn't want to retreat and practice like the senior brothers, so she took the initiative to ask Ying to teach the junior brother exercises and door rules. This girl is really getting more and more eccentric!

"Ahem, okay then! Since your senior brother has said so, Li Ji's basic exercises and door rules will be handed over to you to teach. If you say it first, if you don't teach it well, you have to admit punishment!" staring at the slim Xinyan, the Qifa Dao Master said solemnly, "However, in addition to teaching your disciples on a daily basis, you must also practice high-level exercises diligently, and you must not delay and always be ready to participate in the competition of the Spirit Conference." ”

"What? I'm going to attend the Spirit Conference too, I don't want to ......" Xinyan stomped her foot, looking reluctant.

"Needless to say, the entire disciples of the Kamikaze Academy, plus you and Li Jicai, are already a big loss in terms of numbers compared to the hundreds of disciples in other courtyards. Therefore, Xinyan, you must attend this conference. Leisurely watching a bamboo leaf fall, Daoist Qifa pulled his gaze away and said earnestly.

"Yes!" Xinyan pouted twice, reluctantly arching her hand.

The senior brothers laughed secretly: The little junior sister is stealing chickens this time!

"Li Ji, you also go to this conference, the right is to increase your knowledge!" "Qifa Daoist suddenly turned around, patted Li Ji's shoulder, and said slowly, "In the test at the recruitment meeting, your spiritual power is zero, which is really rare, you don't have to go to your heart, although you may not have any great achievements in the future, as long as you work hard to cultivate, you can also achieve certain results." The Spirit Conference, a rare encounter in a hundred years, see the big scene, broaden your horizons, and worship the kamikaze temple once in vain. ”

"Thank you, Master, for making it happen!" Li Ji replied.

"Hey, the talents of the Divine Wind Academy are so withered, is it really going to be destroyed in my hands?" Looking around at the seven apprentices in front of him, the Qifa Dao Master glanced up at the sky and let out a long sigh.

Seeing that the master was so sad, all the disciples were ashamed, and they all bowed their heads and secretly thought: Shennong Villa has three halls and seven courtyards, and the Shenfeng Academy is the weakest, not only are the disciples scarce, but the level of practice is also very different. In the competition at the end of each year, he basically ranks first from the bottom, and only the senior brother Wei Hu can occasionally win one or two games, and the rest are all defeated in one battle. The Breitling Festival is even more difficult to meet in the life of a person who cultivates immortals, and the masters and uncles of the various palaces attach great importance to it, which can be seen. However, with qualifications and strength in front of you, even if you don't eat or drink and practice diligently day and night, it will be useless and you will definitely fail. Although this is a very clear truth, everyone does not dare to pierce it easily, on the surface, we still have to follow the master's will, otherwise we don't have to wait for the spirit conference, and today will be difficult.

After thinking about it, several people said in unison: "Master, we should do our best, cultivate the exercises, and glorify the Divine Wind Academy!"

"You bunnies, I know what you're thinking, don't talk to me. What if you fail once, don't be angry, you must learn from the green pines and green cypresses, 'between the lonely cliffs and valleys, there is this Lingyun Qi', the frost and the rain, you can still be verdant all year round, and you must learn the bamboo forest that has stood for thousands of years, the quality of tenacious struggle, and dare to face setbacks. In the wind and rain, the flowers and grass were blown down by the wind and splashed by the raindrops, but the green pines, green cypresses and bamboo forests stood bravely in the storm, without a trace of fear, how chic and natural. Qifa Daoist pointed to the bamboo forest and said a lot of words.

The wind blew, it happened to be a sunny day after the rain, and the wind was full of the freshness of the earth, and then look at the bamboos, still standing on the land that belonged to it, still tall and handsome, and indeed gave people a strong, fearless beauty.

After the Qifa Daoist finished speaking, he began to urge a few people to practice the exercises, while Li Ji was pulled by the little senior sister Xinyan to a clearing next to a nearby stream.

"Senior sister, what are we going to practice?" asked Li Ji.

"According to your situation, I'll teach you some basic exercises first!" Xinyan said with a tilt of her head.

"Wow!" Li Ji said happily, clapping his hands.

"Then let me ask you a question first, what is the main cultivation of our immortal cultivators?" Xinyan's eyes flashed with cunning.

"Uh...... It should be cultivating spiritual power. ”

"Wrong, the first step in cultivating immortals is to build a foundation, as the name suggests, it means laying a foundation. The key to high-rise buildings is to lay a good foundation, and only when the foundation is laid can the building be built. "Xinyan is right.

"Oh, I see, building a foundation is to lay a good foundation first, and then you can start cultivating spiritual power. Li Ji seemed to understand a little, and couldn't help but smile.

"Yes. I can't see that you are still a little clever, not as difficult to teach as my father said!" Xinyan was overjoyed, paused and said, "The foundation of a normal person needs a hundred days to build a foundation in order to have a small success, but these are all mortal sayings, Shennong Villa has a unique cultivation method, do you want to learn it?" Xinyan smiled proudly.

"Yes, my junior brother always feels that I don't have the potential to cultivate immortals, and I hope that my senior sister will teach me. ”

"Okay, the first step to do today is: settle in. The so-called human heart belongs to the heart of the Tao, and the two hearts are one, that is, the human heart is still and does not need to be used, and the heart of the Tao goes with the flow. The method of two-heartedness is non-action, and non-action is to go with the flow without delusion or recklessness. Do you understand?"

"I don't understand. Li Ji scratched his head, and said with a puzzled face, "What Senior Sister said is unpredictable and mysterious, and Senior Brother is stupid and fails to understand. ”

"Tell me the truth, am I beautiful?" Xinyan suddenly leaned over, the tip of her nose almost touched, staring at Li Ji without squinting, and suddenly asked.

"Uh...... Beauty, true ...... Beautiful! ...... Incense!" Smelling the charming fragrance wafting from Senior Sister Xinyan's body, Li Ji suddenly had a strange feeling, as if he had fallen into a fairyland, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said.

was said by Li Ji to her face, Xinyan was so ashamed that her face was crimson.

After a moment of silence, her face changed instantly, she raised her right hand, snapped, and slapped Li Ji's face.

After a crisp slap sounded, a clear fingerprint was very conspicuous on Li Ji's handsome and smooth face, especially the hot pain came from his face, he frowned, and was stunned on the spot, not knowing what was going on.

"You idiot, I am not beautiful, in your heart is an image, that is, the human heart, you have to go to the human heart, have the Tao heart, in order to become one, understand?" Xinyan said angrily.

"Oh, I see. Li Ji covered his face and said in a low voice.

"Then let me ask you, am I beautiful now?" Xinyan asked with wide eyes.

"No...... Beautiful!" replied Li Ji hesitantly.

There was another crisp sound of "pop", and Li Ji's right face was hot and stinging, and Xinyan said angrily: "Am I not beautiful? I tell you, beauty or not is not in your heart, but in the heart of the Dao, and when you have two hearts in one, you can gather qi to form, build a foundation, and then you can cultivate spiritual power and enter the gate of cultivating immortals." ”

Xinyan immediately taught the entrance method of gathering qi to form, and suddenly said with a trembling smile: "Good junior brother, you can settle down here, I'll go play elsewhere, but don't tell my father, otherwise I won't teach you the exercises anymore." ”

"Yes!" Li Ji nodded resignedly, "Senior sister originally wanted to play, I don't know if there is anything fun, can you take me there too?"

"No, you can't go where I go. When you're done cultivating in the future and can fly with your sword, I'll take you there. A flower bloomed on Xinyan's face, it was rare for a stupid junior brother to be willing to accompany him to play, and several other senior brothers were afraid of their father's punishment, no matter how they begged, they were all unwilling to do so with a straight face.

"Okay, then the junior brother must practice diligently according to the senior sister's teaching. With that, Li Ji sat down cross-legged, clasped his palms together, took a deep breath, eliminated distractions, and entered the realm of selflessness.

"You practice hard, that senior sister is gone......" Xinyan's voice did not fall, and the figure was already in the distance.

Li Ji followed the formula, as soon as he settled down, his father's voice and smile and the scene of his murder sometimes appeared in his mind, sometimes he thought of his eldest brother's Mid-Autumn Festival, and sometimes he thought of his mother and Li Mingyue's current situation.

So I opened my eyes, looked at the clear stream, the green bamboo forest, listened to the birds and flowers, and the small spring dingdong, and the whole body was very comfortable.

"I haven't even been able to learn such a simple method of concentration, it seems that I am really stupid. Li Ji simply got up and wandered aimlessly in the bamboo forest, when he suddenly heard a loud noise, followed the sound and searched for it, and found that the five senior brothers were practicing the exercises.

I saw the senior brother Wei Hu sitting on a knotweed and hovering, the second senior brother Yang Kan used his mind to control the diamond circle around the bamboo forest garden flying in the sky, the third senior brother Lan Qin stepped on the Big Dipper Seven Star Array and brandished the seven-star sword, pieces of sword flowers were everywhere, the fourth senior brother Pei Di held the seal of the sky against a bamboo forest, as if destroying the withered and decaying, the waist was broken, the fifth senior brother Changyi's hand held the colorful exquisite tower, containing a mouthful of spiritual power, gently blowing, bamboo leaves flying, all collected into the tower.

In the bamboo forest, the magic weapons flutter, dazzling, the scene is spectacular.

Li Ji was dumbfounded, hiding quietly in the forest, and suddenly an angry curse came like a thunderbolt from a sunny day.

"Fourth, do you use this Tianyin as a dice shaker, to penetrate into seventy percent of spiritual power, in one go, how do you usually teach you?"

"Second brother, how can you be like a monkey in this vajra circle? A good fairy magic weapon, it's really a waste to put it in your hands, oops!"

......

Daoist Qifa shouted at Wei Hu and the others: "One by one, rice buckets! If you don't cultivate well, you will lose the face of the Divine Wind Academy, and in the future, you will roll down the mountain to pick up dung like Li Jina's waste materials." ”

Hearing this, Li Ji ran back to the stream to find an open space to lie down, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, chewing slightly, and letting the faint bitterness spread in his mouth.

Looking at the blue sky, a few white clouds floated in, and Master's words just now kept echoing in my mind.

"Hey!" Li Ji sighed lightly, stretched his legs lazily, pillowed his head with his hands, and his eyes were a little dazed, "Why am I so stupid? I can't learn anything, my spiritual power is zero, I can't even do the most basic concentration, I deserve to be ridiculed, is it really a natural waste?"

"Phew. Spit out the grass roots in his mouth, Li Ji suddenly jumped up and roared at the sky: "Born a waste material! Can't you have some achievements? God, you look at it with your eyes wide open, I, Li Ji, obey the heavens and the earth, and I just won't admit defeat!"

After roaring a few times, Li Ji's mood slowly calmed down, and his face returned to his usual loneliness again.

At this point, no matter how angry you are, you can't change your innate physique.
