"Brother Tao, I believe what you said earlier, but in the last sentence, I am a little confused!" Li Jie listened to Elder Jin's preaching seriously, and when he heard Elder Jin say that it was better to rely on luck, Li Jie habitually twitched the corners of his mouth, touched his nose with his hand and said:

"This cultivation depends more on luck, so how can luck be relied on?"

"yes, it's unreliable!" Elder Jin sighed and said,

"So, it's hard to practice in this world! But luck is indeed a necessary condition for cultivation! The old man remembers that when you first came to the end of the Han Dynasty, you got the Taiping Technique, this is luck, if you don't have the Taiping Technique, you can't embark on this path of cultivation so quickly, right? ”

After a pause, he said to Li Jie again: "This world is big, and there are naturally countless treasures of heaven and earth, if you can get one or two, it will be much smoother when you naturally practice!" ”

"yes, yes!" When Li Jie saw Elder Jin say that cultivation depends on luck and genius treasures, he couldn't help but remember that every breakthrough in his Taiping Sutra almost had to rely on spiritual jade, so he took out the spiritual jade dragon match and said to Elder Jin:

"Since the kid cultivated the Taiping Sutra, he has refined the fifth layer of qi, but every time he has to rely on these spiritual jades to break through, Brother Tao, look at it, it's just such a jade."

"I'll see!" Elder Jin was stunned by what Li Jie said, and took the spirit jade dragon match without aura that had been absorbed by Li Jie, and couldn't help but scold:

"You loser, this is a rare medium-grade spirit stone, if you use it for cultivation, you can only refine the qi level!"

"What is a medium-grade spirit stone?" Li Jie was taken aback by Elder Jin's scolding, and looked at Elder Jin puzzled:

"This is obviously a spirit jade!"

"The old man is in this sect, and the annual consumption is only three medium-grade spirit stones, you said that you have a qi refining layer, what kind of medium-grade spirit stones do you use!"

"Cultivating with medium-grade spirit stones can be very fast!" Li Jie remembered the feeling of holding these spirit jades and cultivating on a plane, and smacked his lips and said:

"I broke through by myself except for the first layer of qi refining, and now I have used four pieces!"

"You used four more!" Elder Jin's eyes widened, and he was about to get angry, when he suddenly thought of what he had started to say, so he let out a long sigh and said:

"The old man began to say, this cultivation depends on luck, you see how long you have been cultivating, and you have found four medium-grade spirit stones, the second layer of the old man's Jindan, and it is only three per year, you, this is luck!"

"Hey, hey! Is this luck? Li Jie habitually twitched the corners of his mouth, touched his nose with his hand and said:

"In that case, my luck is not bad!"

"Alas, it's not bad!" Elder Jin glanced at Li Jie and said:

"The Zhang Wenjie who brought you here, you know, he is more than fifty years old this year, and he has been cultivating for nearly forty years, so he can build the third layer of the foundation, do you know how long it took him to refine the fifth layer of qi?"

He paused, raised a finger and shook it at Li Jie.

"A year?" Li Jie asked tentatively.

"One year!" Elder Jin glanced at Li Jie angrily and said, "Your ninety-seven talent qualifications, you used four medium-grade spirit stones, you used them for a year, and he used them for a full ten years!" ”

"Oops! Oh my god! Li Jie was taken aback, Zhang Wenjie had cultivated to the fifth level of qi refining for ten years, and his cultivation speed was ten times faster than him, and he suddenly looked at Elder Jin, his eyes were shining:

"Brother Tao, are there many in the Zhongpin Spirit Stone Sect?"

"Many, many!" Elder Jin looked at Li Jie, who looked like a fan of money, and replied angrily:

"As long as you have enough contribution, not to mention medium-grade spirit stones, even high-grade spirit stones are available."

"Contribution?" Li Jie looked at Elder Jin puzzled, touched his head and asked:

"How much contribution can I exchange for a medium-grade spirit stone?"

"One thousand points." Elder Jin and Li Jie were a little speechless when they spoke, and after thinking about it, they straightened their waists and said with a rather conceited expression:

"Since the old man went up the mountain, it took only three years of hard work to make a complete set of measurement methods, less than ten years, our Zhengyi Yuan Emperor faction adopted the old man's measurement system, and then use ten years, most of the world's sects imitate our Zheng Yuan Emperor faction."

"1,000 sect contributions!" Li Jie selectively ignored Elder Jin's arrogant words behind him, and just muttered:

"So how do you get contribution?"

"The old man is too lazy to tell you!" Seeing that Li Jie only cared about contribution, Elder Jin couldn't help but widen his eyes angrily, and said sullenly:

"When you pass the trial, the sect will naturally give you the sect jade slip, and you will know when the time comes."

"Brother Tao, what's going on with the path of trials you said?" Seeing Elder Jin glaring at him, Li Jie quickly straightened up, and pulled it away with a smile:

"And Brother Tao, you started to ask me to be silent, and asked me to divide the Eight Great Masters' Spiritual Pill, and what does it mean to ask Elder Hu to open the Heavenly Book of Creation for me?"

"Don't worry, the old man is about to tell you this, the old man will tell you about the path of the trial first!" Elder Jin also cared about Li Jie's great achievements, and when Li Jie got the sect jade slip, he would naturally know about it, so he picked up the jade pot, and while giving Li Jie another cup of ginseng tea, he said:

"This road of trial, to put it bluntly, is what you and I later call the introductory exam, but this exam does not use pen and ink, but only requires the test taker to walk a road to the top of the mountain."

"Just climbing the mountain?" Li Jie was stunned for a moment and asked directly.

"Yes, it's a mountain climb, but this road is not a simple mountain climb!" Seeing Li Jie's straightforward question, Elder Jin smiled slightly and said:

"Choosing disciples to take the path of trials is a common method that almost all sects will adopt now. Although it is just a mountain climb, the road to this trial is not smooth, and there will be all kinds of tests waiting for you along the way, such as sometimes you will encounter all kinds of traps, and even fire will block the road, cliffs and cliffs......"

"There are a total of ten pavilions on this path of trial, and between the pavilions and the pavilions, all the obstacles may or may not appear."

"But without exception, from the sixth section onwards, there will be monks from the sect sitting in the pavilion, called the pavilion people, and the candidates need to follow the requirements of the pavilion people, and after completing them, they can continue to walk back."

"If the test taker fails to complete the requirements of the pavilion person, the test path will be over, and the sect will determine the treatment of the test taker according to the test taker's performance, which is the beginning of the trial road."

"Then to what extent do you have to go to meet the requirements of the sect?" Li Jie had been listening carefully to Elder Jin's introduction to this trial path, and when he heard the end, he couldn't help but ask.

"Walk to the position of the person who sits in the pavilion, also called the Immortal Yuan Pavilion, that is to say, if you see a person who cultivates immortals, it is a fairy fate, and you can naturally get started." Elder Jin said a long list of words, then took a sip of ginseng tea, and said to Li Jie:

"Including this Immortal Yuan Pavilion, there are a total of five pavilions in the back, and the farther you go, the more rewards you will naturally receive from the corresponding sect."

After a slight pause, he said, "Didn't you ask about the sect's contribution?" From the sixth pavilion, there are also sect contributions, the sixth is 100 points, the seventh is 200 points, the eighth is 400 points, the ninth is 800 points, and the tenth is 2,000 points! ”

"I'll count, I'll count!" As soon as Li Jie heard that there was a sect contribution, wasn't it a medium-grade spirit stone, and hurriedly pinched his fingers and calculated:

"Go to the tenth, that's not three thousand five hundred points!"
