Volume 1: A Boy Comes from the Mountains Chapter 28 The Path of Cultivation
"Uncle Lian, taste this roasted rabbit thigh, it's nine medium-rare!" At night, the moon and stars are scarce, and Chenfeng is holding a pair of burnt rabbit thighs in his hand, squeezing his eyebrows at Lian Chengyu.
"Oh, barbecue, the old man likes it, it's good. Lian Chengyu smiled and took the rabbit leg in Chenfeng's hand and took a big bite.
"It's ok. Lian Chengyu ate the meat in his mouth, muttered, and by the way, took off the wine gourd on his waist and poured a sip of wine.
"It's not a good cook's salt, it's all about seasonings. Chenfeng was about to boast a few words, but when he heard Lian Chengyu add another sentence, Chenfeng's face suddenly darkened, and he was a little embarrassed, thinking that he would take advantage of Lian Old Man's happiness to ask about the soul.
"Alright, stop acting. Lian Chengyu Dao broke the cleverness of the morning breeze, but then his face became more serious, and he turned his head to the morning breeze and said: "Even if the world is so big, you must be careful not to chew too much." ”
"Don't worry, Uncle Lian. The road is not as good as the road, I know this truth. Chenfeng nodded, and then added with some weakness: "I just want to learn more about the outside world." ”
"Well, that's good. Although you are a lame beginner now, you can be regarded as having completed the cultivation of the introductory alchemist in any case, and I have nothing to teach you in terms of alchemy in the future, you need to keep practicing by yourself, just remember that you are good at karma and diligent. Lian Chengyu seemed to talk about it seriously.
Chenfeng nodded, expressing his approval of Lian Chengyu's statement, and waited for Lian Chengyu's next words.
"One month is your eighth birthday, and then you will start real cultivation, although refining medicine is not a small path, but looking at the world is still the strong are respected, so cultivation is the most important. Lian Chengyu is good at persuasion, which can be said to have paved the way for what he is going to say next.
"Before you officially start practicing, Uncle Lian has some questions for you. You must choose your path carefully, which determines your future direction and achievement, and you must follow your heart, answer truthfully, and do not have the slightest ambiguity. Lian Chengyu continued to say to the morning wind.
"Uncle Lian, you are well-informed, choose a path for me that is both suitable for me and relatively powerful, can't you?"
This is Chenfeng's heart, he doesn't know anything, and it is definitely not a wise move to choose blankly, not to mention that even Chengyu is so serious.
"Silly boy. "Hearing the words of the morning breeze, Lian Chengyule was happy. "It's true that everyone's talent and roots are different, and there are also suitability, but in the long run, interest is also important. ”
"Yunyan Continent, since ancient times, there have been constant wars and disputes, so everywhere is heavy on martial arts and light on literature, the truth is not as big as a fist, and you will naturally know when you go out on your own in the future. Lian Chengyu is still emphasizing the importance of cultivation, for fear that the morning breeze will not take it seriously.
"Morrowind, Uncle Lian is right. No matter where you are, strength is the most important thing. At this moment, Chen Qingqing walked out of the bedroom, walked to Chenfeng and whispered.
"You two are here, I'll talk about the many cultivation paths in our Yunyan Continent. Chenfeng was about to say a few words to Chen Qingqing, but when he heard Lian Chengyu say this, he obediently swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, but he looked at Chen Qingqing with some doubts.
"Qingqing is also going to go out to walk the rivers and lakes in the future, so I will start practicing with you in a month. Now you just have to choose the direction of your practice. Noticing Chenfeng's doubts, Lian Chengyu explained.
"There are probably several types of cultivation that are most prevalent in the Yunyan Continent, Qi Cultivator, Body Refiner, Array Mage, Medicine Refiner, Refiner, Beast Tamer, etc. Each profession has a different focus, and cultivating to the top of the class has great power, so there is no difference between strength and weakness in nature. Lian Chengyu reminded the two of them to treat cultivators of all professions equally.
"Let's talk about the Qi Practitioner first, as the name suggests, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi cultivated by the Qi Practitioner is also called the aura. Qi practitioners essentially communicate the aura of heaven and earth through the meridians and acupuncture points of the human body, and then exert the power of heaven and earth aura with the help of magic weapons and martial arts. Do you understand?" Lian Chengyu spoke concisely and easily understandable, and after finishing the gist of it, he turned his head and asked the two if they had any questions.
Chen Qingqing nodded, indicating understanding. Morrowind did frown and asked, "So, the Qi practitioner uses the body as a bridge, and the practice is the operation of the Yuan Qi in the body, so how can you distinguish between strength and weakness?"
"Well, so to speak. Lian Chengyu nodded: "As for distinguishing between strength and weakness, first, the vitality will enter the dantian with the accumulation of quantity and actual combat polishing, the second is that the level of cultivation determines the strength of the performance of the heaven and earth vitality, and the third is that the magic weapons of different grades have different powers under the action of the vitality. ”
Morrowind nodded expressionlessly, indicating that he understood. I was really surprised in my heart, this world is really wonderful and abnormal, the mystery of creation is really wonderful, there are so many doorways just to practice qi.
"Speaking of body refiners, qi practitioners practice qi, body refiners are naturally refining the body. When there is no way to communicate vitality or the physical talent is outstanding, most human beings will choose to refine the body. The body is tempered through pills and exercises until the sword is invulnerable and the vitality is not invaded. ”
"Body refining is actually summed up by humans from the constant battles with savage beasts, because compared to humans, the physical strength of powerful beasts is not at the same level at all. ”
"In addition, body refining is not only something that body refiners can do, many qi practitioners will choose simple body refining in order to better withstand and exert the aura of heaven and earth. ”
Lian Chengyu looked at the two of them after speaking, intending to ask if there was anything they didn't understand. The two of them shook their heads in unison, not that there was no problem, but that they didn't want to refine their bodies at all.
Needless to say, Chen Qingqing is a little girl, what Chen Feng thinks is that it is better to practice qi, and to train into a muscle stick, five big and three thick, and she is not interested.
"The other is the alchemist, I think you should know more about the alchemist. The combat effectiveness of the alchemist is the lowest among all professions, but the status of the high-level alchemist is no less than that of the powerful qi cultivator and the body refiner in the cultivation world. ”
"Array mages actually have a lot of similarities with alchemists, both of them communicate with the vitality of heaven and earth, and turn the virtual into reality with the help of artifacts. The difference is that in addition to being sensitive to vitality, the formation mage also has a deep knowledge foundation, and the formation mage is involved in the formation diagram, the array magic weapon, yin and yang feng shui, etc., so to a certain extent, the formation mage is a kind of profession in all professions. ”
"Of course, you can't underestimate the combat ability of the formation mage just because of the bias, a powerful formation mage may be able to draw many low-level cultivators into prisons with a single stroke, and trap them alive. ”
"The refiner is a group of reckless men who specialize in refining weapons and array weapons, you will know it yourself in the future, although it is similar to the alchemist, but it is not elegant. Lian Chengyu seems to have a lot of criticism for the refiner.
"Animal trainers, it's not common, it's not one in a thousand miles. Because anyone who is a beast tamer must have a special constitution and are born with a good understanding of beast language. The animal trainer simply drives the tiger and the wolf and makes the beast use it for him. ”
"Okay, the old man has been talking for a long time, do you two have your own direction?" Lian Chengyu ended his narration and asked Chen Feng and Chen Qingqing with a smile.
"I'll choose a formation mage!"
"I choose a Qi Cultivator. ”
As soon as Lian Chengyu's words fell, two slightly immature voices sounded in unison.
"Oh, tell me why?" Lian Chengyu was not surprised at all by Chen Feng's choice, but because he knew Chen Qingqing's heels, he was very surprised by Chen Qingqing's choice.
"Interested!" Chen Qingqing smiled playfully and replied without thinking.
"I..."
"You want to be the best, I know. After Chen Qingqing was stunned, Lian Chengyu interrupted Chenfeng's speech angrily.
"Uh..."Morrowind was a little embarrassed, although he didn't mean to say this, but the meaning was similar. So he stopped talking, and he acquiesced to Lian Chengyu's statement.
"There's still a month to go, so enjoy it. When you really start practicing, whether it's a Qi practitioner or a formation mage, it's never easy. Especially you kid. Lian Chengyu stood up and said as he walked.
"I... What's wrong with me?" the morning breeze is a little cloudy, how can this old man change his face faster than the sky?
"Because when you practice qi, you must also refine your body!" Lian Chengyu had already walked out of the thatched house, and a sentence floated from afar.
Chenfeng and Chenqingqing looked at each other speechlessly.
"Qingqing, we will have the ability to explore the rivers and lakes together in the future?" Lian Chengyu left, but Chenfeng was immersed in the fantasy of the future.
"Okay!" Chen Qingqing smiled sweetly.
"By the way, I'm going to go out in two days and come back in a month. Looking at the morning breeze, who was still immersed in the fantasy of the future, Chen Qingqing suddenly said.
"Huh, are you going outside?" said Morning Wind, though he didn't know what he was surprised about.
Chen Qingqing hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know, my uncle will come back to pick me up in two days." ”
"Oh, that's good, I'll take you to Yunshan when you come back. Morrowind smiled.
"Yunshan?"
"Shhhh This place is known only to me and Uncle Lian. Now there's one more of you. Morrowind said mysteriously.
Chen Qingqing nodded and smiled. Turning his head, he looked at the forest outside the thatched house, and his smile became even brighter.
