Chapter 4: The Pillar of Enlightenment
The mining area of the Wuqiao Mountains of Fengyingmen is at the junction of continuous mountain peaks and a sea area. It is said that it was the edge of the vast and endless sea, Mo Lei was captured by the slave trapping ship of the Wind Shadow Gate, and after more than a month of turbulence on the sea, he was driven directly into the mine as soon as he got off the boat, and it was two spring and autumn in the blink of an eye.
In the dark mines, sweat is like rain. Sometimes they can't even dig up the raw ore for more than a month, and they only dig up some spiritual stone fragments. In the mine, the spiritual energy is thin, the spiritual power is mixed, and it is impossible to cultivate at all.
There is no cold or heat in cultivation, that is for the long life of a high-level monk.
A low-level junior cultivator like Mo Lei in the Qi Attraction Period, if he couldn't advance to the mid-stage cultivation of the fourth layer of Qi Drainage before the age of twenty-five, he would have no chance with the Great Dao for the rest of his life. can only be stuck on the bottleneck of the third layer of air induction, live twenty or thirty years longer than mortals, and finally grow old like mortals.
During the two years of his career as a mining slave, his cultivation did not make any progress, and he stayed at the third layer of qi induction.
By this winter, he would have been twenty-two years old. There are definitely a lot of elite disciples in the Great Gate Sect and the big families who have become senior cultivators in the condensation stage at this age.
The road to cultivation is slow, one step at a time, one step at a time. Seeing that the road of the Great Road is getting more and more difficult, it is the sorrow of a loose cultivation family like the Mo family.
The sorrows of human beings are sometimes not the same, but the sorrows of dissipation are certainly the same.
The bleak autumn wind blows the yellow leaves of the mountains, and between the mountains and mountains, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and a goshawk disappears from time to time.
The bell rang for the miners, and it was time for lunch.
The way back to the mine slave camp is on the cliff near the sea, a large number of seabirds nest here, Mo Lei cultivates for the body, the body is smart, jumping through the path on the cliff that only allows one person to walk, occasionally taking out a few bird eggs, eating a mouth full of yellow foam, attracting the seabirds to fly high, mournful chirping.
Wu Yi followed behind him in fright, covered with rocks, mud and dead branches and yellow leaves, Mo Lei, who led the way in front, walked easily, but he used both hands and feet, even rolling and climbing, and almost fell off the cliff several times, but Mo Lei came to the rescue.
Seeing Wu Yi so embarrassed and still clutching the spirit stone, a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes.
But he's just a miser.
There are still a few miles away from the mine slave camp, and there don't seem to be a few figures in the mountains, Mo Lei knows, but it's just an appearance. In a sect strategic place like the Lingshi Mining Area, the strict guards will definitely make a fugitive slave despair!
Wu Yi panted and followed Mo Lei, walked side by side with him, spread out his palms and grasped the sweaty spirit stones, and asked cautiously, "This, how to absorb the spiritual power inside?" Mo Lei looked at him in surprise, "Haven't you enlightened the spirit?"
"Qi Ling?" Wu Yi looked confused, "What's that?"
"In this way, I want to guard the spiritual platform, luck dantian, feel the spiritual qi in the spiritual stone, and then guide the spiritual energy into the meridians..."
"Wait, wait, what is the Lingtai, what is the dantian, and where are the meridians?"
......
Well, this is really a very, very white mortal.
Sometimes, the most beautiful picture can be drawn on a blank piece of paper.
Mo Lei's depressed face seemed to glow with some brilliance, maybe this living treasure would be a legendary peerless genius, then it would be developed!"Follow me!" He couldn't help but pull up Wu Yi and walked quickly towards the miner camp that was faintly visible in the distance.
Rows of log-made miners' camps towered over the valley of the mountain peaks, and there was a bustle in the camp when it was time for the miners' dinner.
In front of the Enlightenment Pillar, there was no one.
Mo Lei took Wu Yi to a dark low iron stake, and continued to follow the temptation, "To put it simply, put your hand on the top of the Qiling Pillar, feel the qi emanating from it, keep your mind clear, and try to restrain the qi entering your body with your mind." ”
Wu Yi didn't listen to a word, the scanner had been activated, the field of vision in front of him changed, and the hologram flashed: "Spirit Root Test Column", function: test the type of spirit root, heaven and earth spirit root, the column appears purple light, the superior spirit root, now red light, medium spirit root, now white light, miscellaneous spirit root, now blue light, no spirit root, no light.
Wu Yi touched it with anticipation, and the black iron pillar stood silently. Wu Yi didn't give up, changed his hand and touched it again, the black iron pillar under the twilight exuded a swarthy cold air, and seemed to be mocking silently.
"Clumsy, don't touch it!" Mo Lei was in a bad mood for some reason, and thought that he could pick up a treasure, and there could be no difference in the test results of the spirit measuring stone pillar, and without a spirit root, he was destined to be separated forever, and there was no luck.
In the past two years, Mo Lei, who has been deeply trapped in the Jedi, has occasionally had some unrealistic dreams.
The savior of the young man in the mountains is a hero of the world, and one day, he will ride the colorful auspicious clouds and take me Mo Lei to escape.
But when I met a mortal, what happened to me today?
Wu Yi was worried in his heart, he didn't know where to offend him, and flatteringly handed over the sweaty spirit stone, "Here! There is no spirit root, it is useless for me to keep it, you can use it!"
"Keep it! It's a long time, and you'll be able to use it. Mo Lei was excited, paused, and he instructed, "Be careful, those people won't just give up."
Wu Zhi Mo Lei's mood was up and down, his face was cloudy, he didn't dare to ask more, and said, "Thank you for today's incident!"
Mo Lei said casually, "It's none of your business, thank you." They came at me, and when I bowed my head, he could sit comfortably in his place as foreman. Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for giving me half of the raw ore and sparing me a beating. ”
Seeing that the other party's mood had improved a little, Wu Yi asked without giving up, "Without a spiritual root, is there really no way to cultivate the truth?"
A hint of mockery appeared on Mo Lei's face again, and he glanced at him deeply, "The Spirit Pillar does not approve of it, and the path of cultivation is cut off, this is a truth that has not been broken for thousands of years." There's nothing wrong with being a mortal, and if you don't take that step, you never know how difficult the road will be!"
Patting Wu Yi on the shoulder, he said calmly, "Little brother, save your life, if you have the opportunity to go out, marry a daughter-in-law and pass on the incense, it's worth it." ”
"Let's go, I'll take you back to the barracks and rest early. Mo Lei calmed down and smiled at the newly acquainted little Chinese brother.
The barracks of Mine Cave No. 95 are built next to a stream at the foot of the valley at the bottom of the mountain, the mountains are densely wooded, and the barracks are built with thick tree trunks, neat and beautiful.
It is said that the guards lived in a single wooden house manor, and the front yard of the house not only raised exotic dogs and spirit monkeys, but also planted with strange flowers and plants, and the magic circle that enveloped the manor ensured the warmth of the four seasons and at the same time isolated the prying eyes of lowly miners.
