Volume Three: Ignorance of Qi Refining Sixty-Four: The Dangers of the Future

After Qian Chao said this, his heart moved, and he continued, "Senior Brother Cheng, I may have thought about it a little early, but it's almost time, I am now cultivating at the second level of Qi refining, and when I reach the third layer, I should go to the Worship House to find something to do, and when the time comes, I will go out of the sect, Senior Brother Cheng has already experienced these things, and I am well-informed, can you tell me about what things to pay attention to when I go out." ”

"Well, it won't take too long from the second to the third floor, Senior Brother Qian should also listen to this," Cheng Qiantang said, "Senior Brother Qian, I see that there are few people in the door who are similar to your cultivation and often come and go, in the future, when you reach the third layer of cultivation, if you can't find a companion, I can take you a few times first?" ”

This is true, those who entered the inner door with Qian Chao are now inferior to Qian Chao, naturally they can't keep up with Qian Chao when they reach the third layer, but in the Chengqi Hall, Qian Chao is a little junior brother, and a few senior brothers are also good with him, but even if he is more skilled in alchemy, but after going out, his cultivation will drag others back, at least in the eyes of others, so in Cheng Qiantang, it is a little embarrassing for this Qian junior brother to go out in the future, and it is not easy to find a partner who goes out together.

"There's no need to trouble Senior Brother Cheng about this, I had a few friends when I was in Youming Valley, well, speaking of which, there are five sects in our sect, and the five of us are each in one door, and our cultivation is also quite equal, although I don't have a few acquaintances in our Jiuxuan, but the five of us are often together, and we have already made an appointment to go out together when the time comes."

"Oh, this is rare, and it's good, since they are friends who have been together since they were refining their bodies, there should be no trouble between each other, so I'll tell you about it."

"First of all, Senior Brother Qian, I guess you should also know, not to mention the sect, it's our Jiuxuan, those high-flying and unreasonable people must be not the only one, Du Sha is unlucky this time, where do you think his original subordinates have gone? It's not that each has found a new backer, it's still the same as before, this is one of them. ”

"Second, don't think that Dussa is the most powerful, and you haven't seen it even worse. Speaking of which, this Dussa and I are from similar backgrounds, we both come from small families, the difference is that I was selected, and he sent it. It's just a small family, there is nothing to rely on, those big families can often gather more people, those people don't go out like Dusa with a few people, that's really dozens of people together, people have to hide when they see it outside. ”

"But even if it's like this, it's still not the most powerful, the most powerful, it's the sons and nephews of the elders in our sect. The elders in our Five Spirit Sect are the most, so our Five Spirit Sect can faintly be at the top of these six sects, and because of this, the children and nephews of these elders are also quite a few in the sect, those who have reached the foundation building and cultivation can not be ignored, and the remaining ones who are still in the Qi refining stage really can't be provoked, of course, these people are not all high-flying and domineering people, but there are a few enough, the guys who went out and gathered dozens of people mentioned earlier, when they saw them, they were all servile and humiliating, which was disgusting. Which elder doesn't have a few apprentices, and the disciples of the predecessors of Jiedan are often the majority of the foundation builders, such as Du Sha's people, even if they are killed by the senior brother who builds the foundation, no one in the sect knows about them, so they are really no one to provoke. ”

"In the sect, there are naturally door rules to restrict, and no one dares to make a mistake, but after receiving a sign from the Remembrance Academy, as soon as he leaves the sect, the rules are gone, and whoever has a disagreement with whom, or for other reasons, hates each other, and may start if they meet outside and disagree. These are all said among ordinary disciples. ”

"Those powerful guys especially like to pull people at the door of the temple to be strong, they also go to the temple to find things to do, each time they receive a piece, the temple will give a sign, which will be required in detail, this kind of brand they not only receive but also more, and then see who wants to go out, hand over their own brand to others, and then hand it back to him when they are done, they will go to the temple to receive the spirit stone according to this brand, if people do not follow, they will follow, relying on many people outside the sect or beating or robbing is very bad."

"Speaking of which, outside the sect, demon beasts are not terrible, these guys are the most worrying, especially when the qi refining has just reached the third layer, alas, speaking of which, I was not less bullied when I was at the third layer, and the situation is better after the cultivation has improved, which is why I am willing to do things for the master, I can deal less with those guys."

"You may be curious, why the sect must know about this kind of thing but will let it go, in fact, this can be regarded as the sect's intention, if you don't sharpen it, the disciples in the sect will always be safe and stable, and in the future, when you cultivate deeply, put it outside the sect to do things, where can you deal with all kinds of people in the cultivation world, etc., isn't it to suffer all kinds of losses? Not to mention, take my Cheng family as an example, the Cheng family is a small family, and there are many families around, who look different from each other and calculate each other in private, this kind of thing is too common, one who doesn't pay attention to people catch the handle or is in danger, whether it is for his family or for himself. The cultivation world is so dangerous, so the disciples in the sect are fighting each other outside the sect, and the elders in the sect are also aware of it, but they don't care about it, if they can't even restrain or solve this trouble now, even if they cultivate deeply in the future, it will not be of much use to the sect, can you understand? ”

Qian Chao nodded, in fact, what Senior Brother Cheng said is not a difficult matter, among the five of them, one Tang Ping can probably make many guys retreat, and Lu Pingchuan already has a teacher, and he can also scare and scare people, but listening to it can always give more insight and understand some stories.

"Senior Brother Qian, in the future, you will come to the third layer of Qi refining, when you go out, start to receive things in the Worship Academy, first, don't be greedy, and second, don't be greedy for spirit stones. The more difficult things are, the more spirit stones are given in the end, but that kind of thing often has to stay away from the sect, and the farther away it is, the greater the danger. Start with a few simple pieces and try to avoid those who make trouble. ”

"Also, in addition to these high-flying and domineering guys I told you about earlier, there is another threat when our sect's qi refining disciples go out, and that is scattered cultivation."

"Loose cultivation?" Qian Chao asked curiously.

"Well, casual cultivation, no teacher, no family, no sect, alone, it is extremely difficult to practice, so everyone who is casual cultivation is not a person with a strong will. However, the casual cultivation has a lot more experience in the cultivation world than ordinary disciples, and they have suffered a lot, and their hearts are even more sophisticated, so they are also unscrupulous in doing things. There are many people on the other side, he is deferential and obedient, and the cultivation of a single person on the other side is shallow, and these guys will secretly play a black hand and choose people to devour. ”

"Why is there still a loose cultivation near our sect?" Qian Chao asked.

"Why not, do you remember the matter of asking your junior brother to receive your spirit sword? He was thinking of selling your spirit sword to a few towns outside the sect, where there were a lot of loose cultivators. These casual cultivators wanted to find an opportunity there to see if they could enter the sect, and secondly, they wanted to see if they could take advantage. The cheap thing to say is that the qi refining disciples who are active near the sect, and those who are alone and rashly stay away from the sect will often be in danger when they encounter these guys, if they just snatch the storage bag, I also heard that there was a loose cultivator who killed the lone qi refining disciple before, and the jade pendant of the sect wearing the deceased was swaggering in the sect for a long time before it was discovered. ”

"And then?"

"Later? Naturally, he didn't end well, but this is also a reminder to you, don't take risks easily. ”

Qian Chao listened and nodded.

"Others, on the second floor of the library building, there is a map of the book, called "Ye Yingping's Trace", I recommend you go and take a look, where there may be any spirit grass near our sect, and where there will be any powerful demon beasts have been recorded on the map, although it is not complete, but it is also very rare. In addition, Senior Brother Qian likes to read, you might as well read more, and there are some miscellaneous notes and travelogues written by senior brothers on the second floor, which are also worth reading, and you can grow a lot of knowledge. ”

"Well, speaking of which, I have always been careful when I go out so many times, many times there is no danger, and only once I really encountered danger, I can say that I can listen to Senior Brother Qian, and I can be more vigilant in the future."

"Oh, Senior Brother Cheng, please speak."

"That was what happened when I was refining the fourth layer of qi, and it was also several years ago. When I went out, I went out with a junior brother surnamed Song, and it was just the two of us. One of the things was that we were to collect ten elephant plants outside, well, it was a low-level spiritual grass. I had consulted the map before, and I had asked people about it, and I had a rough idea of where it was, but when the two of us got there, we found that there was, but the elephant hemp there was not enough to use, and even if I took it back, it was impossible to count. There was no choice but to keep looking. ”

"I stayed outside for a few days, and I did a few other things, but I didn't find these ten elephant hemps. If you can't get the sign of the Worship Academy, you will have to deduct the spirit stone, so the two of us are also anxious, and then we met a disciple in the sect who is also refining qi, so we tried to ask him, and the person pointed us to a place and said that there was there. The junior brother and I followed the man's instructions all the way over, and sure enough, there were elephant hemp, not only were there a lot, but they were all old enough, which really put us at ease, and finally it didn't come out in vain, and everything could be done. ”

"But we look at the elephant hemp is also seen from a distance, not close, this time fortunately I have a heart, although this elephant hemp is not a high-level rare spirit grass, but there are a lot of elephant bits, and it is also rare, and the person we met before said exactly the same, but if these elephant hemp is picked back by the person himself, it is still okay to sell dozens of spirit stones, but why did the person give up these spirit stones? There's got to be weird. ”

"As soon as I told Senior Brother Nasong what I thought of, he also came to his senses and didn't rush to pick the spirit grass. The two of us hid in the vicinity, and sure enough, after a while, the man who had let us go there to collect the elephant hemp, came quietly, and he looked carefully in the air for a long time before he fell down carefully, and he was more than ten feet away from the elephant hemp, and he never came forward again, but only watched there non-stop. ”

"What are you looking for? Hum! Thinking about it later, he was naturally looking for the bodies of the two of us, to see if he could find the storage bag and take it away. The man didn't notice anything and left, but I still didn't feel at ease, so I let Senior Brother Song and I continue to hide there, and sure enough, after a while, the man came back again, this time he didn't fall, but circled around the neighborhood to look back and forth, as if he knew that the two of us were hiding nearby. At that time, it was also thanks to our strict hiding, so he did not find out, he may have thought that we either did not come or found danger after coming and left directly, but he was reluctant to take those elephant hemp, and finally took the risk of picking a few. ”

"Did he get it?"

"He almost died there! The method he used was to fly lower, faster, grab an elephant and fly over, although it would hurt the spirit grass, but it was safer. Hum! He flew sideways and quickly flew to the elephant and just stretched out his hand to catch it, when dozens of big mouse-like demon beasts suddenly jumped up in the spirit grass and crawled all over his body at once, and those that fell on him began to bite non-stop, where did the person still have the heart to grab the spirit grass, while screaming and struggling to grab the monster beast one by one from the body and throw it away, that kind of monster I later learned was called a quan rat, good at jumping, can jump more than ten zhang high, good at biting, even the spirit sword can be bitten in their mouths, the lower grade, It's just that it's a group, it's very difficult, and it's easy for no one to provoke. The man flew away with a scream all the way, and Senior Brother Song and I were already stunned, only to find out that those rats came out of the cave under the elephant hemp, and that person's cultivation looked more advanced than the two of us. In the end, the Remembrance detained us some spirit stones, but at that time, I heard that one of our Jiuxuan senior brothers was almost bitten to death by a cannon, and when Yukong flew back to the sect, he still had seven or eight cannons on his body, and he was bitten to the flesh, which was miserable. ”

Qian Chao listened and said: "It's so dangerous! ”

"Yes, it's dangerous, I said earlier that the demon beasts outside are not the most terrifying, the most terrifying are the monks. I've encountered powerful monsters outside, and I've fought with people who bullied us because of injustice, but when it comes to the things that scared me, this time, although we were unharmed afterwards, if we hadn't been a little more careful, I'm afraid that I wouldn't have the fate to take you brothers and sisters. I don't want to dampen Senior Brother Qian's courage by saying this, I just want Senior Brother Qian to be more careful outside. ”

After hearing this, Qian Chao bowed lightly to Senior Brother Cheng and said, "I understand what Senior Brother Cheng means, thank you, Senior Brother." ”

Cheng Qiantang nodded.
