Chapter 3 Yuanqi Continent
For Yan Yi, in addition to the name of the world in the Yuanqi Continent, another thing that everyone on this continent understands after learning to recognize it, and it is closely related to everyone's life, that is, cultivation.
For people who grew up in the Yuanqi Continent, cultivation is like three meals a day, imprinted in everyone's soul, compared to cultivation, three meals a day is even insignificant, if you don't eat, you can survive the same, then the people who live here will definitely give up this item and spend all their time on cultivation.
This is not an exaggeration, because when you have cultivated to a certain realm, you can fast for some time, and the more advanced the realm in the future, the longer the fasting time, and finally you can even stop eating and rely on the energy of cultivation to survive, and those extra time than ordinary people are also used to pursue a higher realm, so it can also be seen that cultivation is important to the people who live in this land, and strength is everything.
Not long after Yan Yi became sensible, his father told him some things about cultivation, the reason why the Yuan Qi Continent is called the Yuan Qi Continent is because the people who live in this world need to cultivate a thing called Yuan Qi, which cannot be seen or touched, and only true cultivators can feel it.
The reason why I say this is because although cultivation has been integrated into the bone marrow of everyone on the continent, fate will always inadvertently joke with some people, and that joke is completely unacceptable to the people who live here, that is, they can't cultivate, and for a person who regards cultivation as more important than eating, but can't cultivate on the continent, which is more ordinary, such a joke is no less than cutting off his hands and feet.
And people are greedy for life after all, especially when you find that the problem of not being able to cultivate is not only happening to you alone, then you are even more determined to live, and at the same time, such a special identity also brings them together.
But not being able to cultivate made their life difficult at the beginning, they could only survive in the world, and not being able to cultivate was the loss of force for people living on this continent, and without force, all the good things were destined to be almost insulated from them, and occasionally getting them without being discovered was really the most fortunate thing in their lives.
This group of people has lived like this for I don't know how many years, one day a person accidentally discovered that he had an unwarranted ability to control the flames, so he called some other people to experiment, and found that each of them had the same feeling, and everyone clearly felt that everyone's control over the flames was more or less different, some were stronger and some were weaker, just like the cultivation talent of cultivators, some were strong and some were weak.
This discovery had made them mistakenly think that they could cultivate again, but when they began to cultivate, they found that it was not like that, and this was undoubtedly an empty joy, which made everyone extremely disappointed, as if they had been abandoned by fate again.
But this group of people who have been tricked by fate have not given up, so many years of hard life have made them not give up any chance to survive, not to mention that this may be an opportunity to change their survival fate.
And this has indeed become the capital to change the survival of people like them on this continent, after they continue to explore day and night, they have found many places where they are superior to those cultivators, their food is better than the food of any hotel on the continent, the weapons they forge can be better than the weapons of any military casting ground on the continent, and so on.
And these spread out through unknown channels, and when those cultivators who were once high above knew that these people who were originally regarded as waste had such ability, they began to woo them one after another.
Originally, it was just that the food was delicious, and the forged weapons were better, so it didn't go to woo, but the cultivators found that the weapons forged by this group of people were not only better than the weapons forged in the ordinary forging field, but also had their own Yuan Qi attributes.
Although Yuan Qi is energy and there is no strength or weakness, but there is a division of attributes, as far as the mainlanders generally know, Yuan Qi attributes are divided into five kinds, namely metal, wood, water, fire, earth, the same as Yuan Qi, the cultivation method is basically the same, divided into two parts: physical cultivation and meditation.
However, there are countless cultivation methods, and the strength of different methods is naturally different, and the cultivation exercises from high to low are divided into four levels, and each level of exercises is divided into three levels: high, medium and low.
And the cultivation of energy alone is naturally not enough, the more important thing is to know how to use this energy, so the technique is produced.
Combat skills are divided into four levels of heaven and earth Xuanhuang as well as exercises, each level is divided into three levels, high, medium and low, the strength of the technique is very important in battle, and the energy generated by the high-level combat skill is incomparable to the low-level combat skill, of course, this is between cultivators with the same cultivation, if other people's cultivation is much higher than yours, no matter how strong the technique is, it is in vain.
In addition to the influence of exercises and techniques on the combat effectiveness of cultivators, it is necessary to count the weapons carried by cultivators, which used to be forged by the forging field, and then the cultivators added self-generated Yuan Qi to enhance the combat effectiveness of the weapons.
But now they found that the weapons forged by these people who couldn't cultivate would have their own Yuan Qi attributes, and they were completely integrated with the weapons, although the Yuan Qi fit of the weapons forged by each person was different, some were stronger and some were weaker, but they were much better than the weapons they added the day after tomorrow.
This is compared to those who cultivate and those who cannot cultivate, and the cultivators with poor qualifications have an advantage in force compared to those who cannot cultivate.
So there was a war and conflict on the mainland to fight for these originally regarded wastes, and these wastes became the sweets of the country and the country, the family and the family overnight, and the people also re-named their group of people, called alchemists, and their fate has changed dramatically.
And as a cultivator, in this world where the strong are supreme, it is actually not easy, the law of survival is the immutable law of survival, the strong are rampant with the mainland, but the weak can only look at the faces of others.
The cultivation level of a cultivator is divided into five realms of one, and one body refers to the stage of quenching the body before entering the real cultivation, which is not considered a real cultivation, but only the refining of the physical body, preparing for the real cultivation, and the strength of the quenching body often lays the foundation for the level of the future realm, so it is very important.
The five realms refer to the five realms of gathering spirits, breaking spirits, scattering spirits, turning pills and channeling spirits, each realm is divided into three levels of junior high school and high school, and the breakthrough of each realm is very difficult.
Therefore, everyone cultivates hard to pursue a higher realm in order to achieve a better survival, and with the accumulation of time, cultivators with the family as a unit appeared, followed by tribes, and now a larger group has been formed, that is, the state, the tribal form has been replaced, and the family still exists, but it is attached to a different country.
And there are more than a dozen countries large and small on the Yuanqi Continent, and the family power has also become the core of the confrontation between one country and another, so being able to grow up in a big family is a blessing for a cultivator, because that means that he has more and better cultivation resources than others since he was a child, which is beneficial to his future survival.
And the mountain where Yan Yi and they live belongs to a city on the border of the Shengyang Empire, which is very remote and sparsely populated compared to other cities, with a population of only 200,000 in the whole city, and the town under Yan Yi Mountain has a much smaller population than other towns, but there are only a thousand people, which can be described as very remote.
The city is mainly controlled by a family surnamed Liu, and although the city is relatively remote, the Liu family's ability to sit in the war-torn border cities of the empire is not to be underestimated.
"Yan'er, I'm back for my father, did you get anything good today?" asked Yan's father in the direction of the kitchen, very happy.
"Somehow there were no wild beasts today, so I hit two rabbits. Yan also replied with a little loss, "But there are still some food from the past, which is not bad." He then said.
"Well, let's go, go into the house, my father will live for you, see if you like the gift that your father bought for you!" Yan's father touched Yan Yi's head with a smile, and said to Yan Yi kindly, and the father and son walked into the simple but warm wooden house together with a smile
Somewhere in the western part of the continent, a man dressed in a powerful dress hurried to a certain part of the mansion, and soon he came to a secluded house and walked in without knocking.
The door opened, there were only neatly arranged tables, chairs and beds in the house, but there was no one in sight, and the footsteps of the people did not stop at all, and they walked directly to the cabinet next to the bed, and then touched the flower pot next to it, only to see the cabinet twist open, revealing a downward staircase, it turned out that the house was just a disguise, this is the real face of the house.
In the basement, a man with closed eyes is sitting in a high position in the room, dressed very plainly, but between his eyebrows there is a kind of coercion, an unquestionable perseverance.
"My lord, after thirteen years of searching, we finally found a clue today, and we detected that person's Yuan Qi fluctuation in the southeast of the continent. The hurried man came to the basement and respectfully reported the information he had received to the man in the high position.
When the man with his eyes closed heard this, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked at the man, did not speak, and then looked vacantly into nowhere, and then fell into deep thought.
