Chapter 192: Spirit Stone System, Retreat and Cultivation
In the huge diving hotel, Yu Lie followed the footsteps of the Taoist in the inn and saw the various coffins in the hotel.
Wood, metal, flesh, even ice coffins, etc., he has seen one side.
Seeing that there are so many types of coffins in the inn, the types are complete, according to the innkeeper, the refining of these coffins also uses special techniques, and Yu Lie secretly looks forward to whether there will be a hole in the coffin.
But when he completed the last bit of formalities and opened it to take a look, he found that these coffins were coffins, cramped, low, and should not be lived in!
Even because Yu Lie chose the lowest grade, the coffin was still stuffy, and the air was not very circulating, if he wasn't a cultivator now, I was afraid that if he stayed in it for a night, he would suffocate if he didn't die.
The only thing that made Yu Lie feel a little comforted was that the aura in the coffin was greatly discounted compared to Yu Fenggao's home, but it was still rich, and it could be compared with the diving county!
If you ignore the space, it can be a good retreat.
Because even the most inferior wooden coffin is divided into inner and outer coffins, at least two layers, even if someone is doing a funeral outside, the people lying inside will never be alarmed, and it is the most suitable for Taoists to cultivate qi in it.
It's quiet and safe.
This also made Yu Lie surprised to find that the coffin, an object made of things and things, is indeed suitable for the Taoist city where every inch of land is valuable, and it is also particularly suitable for the Taoists at the bottom.
He thought to himself, "I really don't know who came up with the idea of using a coffin as a hotel." ”
In this regard, Yu Ke decided to stay in a dive hotel and rented it for a month.
During this month's time, he can use the coffin at will, no matter what Yu Lie is doing in it, whether he sleeps one person or two people, as long as the coffin is not broken, the hotel will not care.
Its rent for January is also cheap, counting the discount for Yu Lie as a person born in Diving County, the manager is only three spirit stones, which is equivalent to only one spirit stone for ten days!
This kind of price, even if Yu Lie first came to Qianzhou Daocheng, he didn't know the local price, he also knew that it was an extremely cheap price!
You must know that when he was in the Diving County, he just bought a second-hand book of dinosaur creatures, and he spent two or three spirit stones, plus the consumption of the follow-up retreat, and directly used six or seven spirit stones in one go.
It was the low price of the coffin that made Yu Lie feel fortunate for a while.
It's as the innkeeper says:
"Fellow Daoist, don't dislike these coffins, if you don't live in these coffins, where should we live? Besides, there are not no other places in Daocheng, but are you still willing to live in that location and price? ”
Yu Lie was silent about this and did not dare to speak.
After all, after paying a month's rent, he currently had a total of twenty-five spirit stones left in his hands.
These spirit stones were mainly earned by him personally during the period when the big soldiers in Blackwater Town. Because of the collapse with the head of the Yu family, the Yu family was also embarrassed, and Yu Lie came to Dao City, but the Yu family did not give him any funding on the spirit stone.
After Yu Lie returned to the diving county, he bought and sold medicinal materials, spent and earned, increased and decreased, and almost all the silver money in his hand was exchanged for spirit stones in the county, so he ended up with the current amount in his hand.
Otherwise, he would now have even fewer possessions.
Among them, it is worth mentioning that the reason why Yu Lie exchanged all the rune money for spirit stones, and did not directly carry the rune money to the Dao City, was suggested by the ghosts and gods in the city's imperial temple.
At that time, the other party did not talk in detail, but just let Yu Lie seize the rare opportunity, which could be regarded as a little care for him by the city emperor.
Yu Lie also thought that the situation here was just to buy spirit stones in the county town, and the price was more convenient.
As a result, when he stepped into Dao City in person, got Yu Fenggao's explanation, and tentatively asked the Taoist of the inn, he found that Fu Qian was not very effective in Dao City, almost scrap iron!
There are many reasons for this, but the main reason is according to the innkeeper:
"Fu Qian is a thing, and it has a dragon qi brand, but it is not completely useless. But Daoyou, you are new to Dao City, and you can't stand the Dao Court, you can print and distribute this thing at will! This thing is used in the county town and below, and it is reasonable for those mortals and small road children to use it.
But on us Daoists who can swallow spiritual energy, as well as the Daoists above and above, Fu Qian has a fart use! Spirit stones are the biggest guarantee, no matter what time they are! In short, no loss! ”
This is roughly the same as what Yu Fenggao told Yu Lie.
In Dao City, starting from the eight-rank Dao disciples, they only used spirit stones as a trade.
Thousands of tasks, thousands of materials, all of which only accept spirit stones, and even the Taoists in the Dao City will return to the basics from time to time to barter, which is very contrary to the current situation of the prosperous era of the Immortal Dao.
However, this situation is also unavoidable.
In the history of the mountain and sea realm, it is not that there are no high Dao, even immortals, who want to make radical changes, and even have mandatory measures to implement dragon qi talisman money, and have also won the support of the entire immortal Dao.
But after repeating it several times, the final result was a lot of chicken feathers, and it also shattered a Dao court, and some immortals paid a blood debt for this, and ended up with a heaven and man.
As for the Taoists below the immortals, there are countless miserable people, and there are no longer a few thousand-year-old families and 10,000-year-old cities.
After that, even if the dragon qi talisman money was of great use, it was only reduced to an existence that was used to supplement the spirit stones in the realm, and the entire mountain and sea realm also received an unbearable evaluation of "Taoist people like small farmers".
In the period where Yu Lie is now, the situation has not improved, only the transaction of spirit stones is more clear and strict than before.
According to the quality, the spirit stone is divided into five grades, defective products, lower grades, middle grades, upper grades, and best grades.
The Dao Court strictly limited the eighth-grade Daoist disciples to only use inferior spirit stones, and the seventh-grade Daoist officials could only use lower-grade spirit stones.
By analogy, the sixth-grade Taoist can use the medium-grade spirit stone, and the fifth-grade Taoist can use the high-grade, and the top-grade spirit stone is the medium of exchange between the immortals.
However, when Yu Lie continued to chat with the Taoist of the inn, he suddenly learned a little more news from the Taoist of the inn.
】
The other party collected the remaining array of spirit stones, weighed it, and said briskly:
"In other words, although our Daoists only value spirit stones, those people in foreign lands, especially those who have not long entered our mountain and sea realm, still accept talisman money. They can only buy food from the major shops in Dao City through Fu Qian. If you have a lot of money in your hand, you can find them and use them on them. ”
The innkeeper suddenly thought of a little more, and muttered, "By the way, I heard that whenever the Dao court conquers the next foreign land, the first step is to promote these dragon qi scrap iron in the foreign world. In other words, Daoting is really an immortal, scrap iron, who wants to exchange spirit stones and spiritual objects? That's why those exotic natives are so stupid......"
When Yu Lie heard this, he was slightly stunned.
Some of the insights from his previous life flooded through his mind, making him feel that there was quite a clue in it.
After a little pondering, Yu Lie waved goodbye to the Taoist in the inn, he looked at an old coffin placed in front of him, and whispered with emotion:
"Although the Dao City is big and it is not easy to live, but the poor Dao is still a Taoist, and he is a human being."
After a little thought, he took out the blank rune paper given to him by the innkeeper from his sleeve, wrote his name on it with true qi, and then stuck it on the coffin.
Whew!
A coffin popped out, and Yu Lie gathered his thoughts and jumped in.
After riding the dragon car for many days, and meeting Yu Fenggao non-stop, Yu Lie also spent his true qi to rush for a long time, and most of the meager true qi in his body was consumed, just in time to feel the taste in the coffin, swallow the spiritual energy, and recover.
After Yu Lie jumped in, the coffin closed on its own and regained its calm.
In the narrow aisle, there is only a coffin on the outside end, and the word "Yu Column" is written on a piece of rune paper, which is swaying and fluctuating in the wind.
But soon, the coffin sounded a secret curse that only those inside could hear:
"What a profiteer! Well, you don't have to shrink your legs! ”
………………
Time passes.
Ever since Yu stayed at the dive hotel, he had been hanging out in and around the hotel.
Luo Xiaofang, who had arrived in Qianzhou Daocheng with him before, also met him, reminisced with each other, and became acquaintances.
The other party also began to invite Yu Lie to go out to work together, but Yu Lie politely declined by himself.
It's not that he doesn't want to go out and earn spirit stones to make up for his shyness. It's just that compared to earning spirit stones, Yu Lie has one more important thing that he needs to do.
This matter is nothing else, it is cultivation!
It is said that after obtaining the breathing method, Yu Lie has not yet cultivated well.
It can be said that the true qi in his body at this time is still the ordinary true qi that he cultivated when he broke through to become an eight-rank Taoist disciple.
After all, after receiving the reward from the Qianjun City Emperor, Yu Lie had no time to cultivate well, so he had to leave the Yu family in a hurry, not wanting to get into more miscellaneous matters.
And if he doesn't transform the true qi in his body into the true qi of the "Golden Stone Poisonous Fire Breathing Method", he is a pure new Taoist disciple, even if he has one or two hands of alchemy skills, I'm afraid no one will believe him.
Even if you believe him, you will definitely lower the price, and fool and deceive him, a new Taoist disciple who has not even cultivated the breathing method.
In the coffin of the hotel, for several days.
Yu Lie lay peacefully, his legs in a strange posture, intertwined, twisted and twisted with his heart facing the sky.
At this time, he was cultivating the "Golden Stone Poisonous Fire Breathing Method" in his brain.
The breathing technique of the Taoist stage is very different from the guidance technique of the Taoist stage, which requires movement, refining of muscles and bones, and often requires medicinal liquid, acupuncture, massage, etc., so as to give full play to the best effect.
But the former, as the name suggests, is the most important thing to breathe and breathe.
For Taoists, only the breath between the two orifices in the nose is the most important.
The rest of the auxiliary measures such as liquid medicine and refining are not useless, but except for the breathing method that pays special attention to refining the body, it is far worse for the vast majority of breathing methods than taking pills, and then breathing quietly and absorbing the spiritual energy in and out of the body.
It is precisely for this reason that the cultivation of the Dao Tong stage is called "dynamic cultivation", and the cultivation of the Taoist stage is called "Jinggong cultivation".
One movement and one stillness are different from each other, and those who move are the foundation of static work.
Because the practice of Jinggong is not as simple and easy as it seems on the surface, it is done in the cavity of the human body, and the degree of meticulousness and danger is even greater than that of moving gong.
When the gong goes crazy, it is often a wild dance, a broken muscle, and a death of exhaustion, and there are signs that can warn others and have a slight chance of being saved.
However, once Jinggong's breathing and breathing are absorbed, once he goes mad, there is no change in his appearance at first, at most his qi and blood are surging, and his face is slightly red, so that people still can't tell whether it is a normal manifestation of Xinggong or a sign of abnormality.
When the degree deepens and it is difficult to return to the sky, it will be bleeding from the seven orifices, all the internal organs will be burned, the flesh cavity will be shattered, the medicine stone will be difficult to treat, and he will die violently on the spot.
For this kind of situation, it is difficult for Daoists of the same realm to take care of them, and only a higher-level seven-rank Daoist with divine consciousness can grasp the internal condition of Daoists without interfering with the cultivation of Daoists, and have a way to remedy them in time.
It's a pity that Yu Lie is now a poor ghost, with neither a few catties of spirit stones nor heavy roots on his body, so he can't invite the elders of the Taoist to protect him at all.
Therefore, for Yu Lie, he wanted to transform all the true qi in his body into the true qi of the "Golden Stone Poisonous Fire Breathing Method", and the difficulty and risk of stepping over the threshold were actually not small.
In particular, the "Golden Stone Poisonous Fire Breathing Method" is comparable to the "Five Poisons Refining Dirty Channeling Technique", both of which are poisonous skills, and the speed of cultivation is faster than ordinary exercises, so the degree of risk in their cultivation is naturally even greater!
It is mainly manifested in the gold and stone materials required by the "Golden Stone Poisonous Fire Breathing Method", which is highly poisonous and can disintegrate the flesh and blood of living beings.
The size of the fingernail cover alone may make the fish and turtles in a river cut off, no grass, and no life for decades, and will erode into the underground dark river, and then continuously expand the scope of influence, reaching a hundred miles possible.
Its purity and toxicity are also extremely difficult to control.
No Taoist can rely on dilution techniques to weaken the toxicity, and even if it is weakened, it will not be able to be used for cultivation because it cannot guarantee the purity of the stone.
The only way is to be able to withstand the poison by itself, and the other is to be wealthy, and to be able to buy a panacea by smashing spirit stones, so that it can be in a state of repair while being poisoned, and not be poisoned.
Fortunately, for Yu Lie, in addition to his outstanding poison resistance, he also has a bronze wine glass in his hand!
The wine glass can extract the poison and extract the spirit, and the rest of the column can completely extract this gold and stone too much, and it is on the verge of being turned into a pure aura, and its toxicity is weakened, but the purity is enough, and the spirit and poison are one, enough to spit into the body.
At this point, Yu Lie lay in the dead coffin, holding the golden stone that can emit fluorescence in one hand, and the Qingtong wine glass in the other, slowly cultivating, breathing and breathing.
As he breathed, the fluorescence on the golden stone continued to pour into his body, refining his true qi.
Being in a narrow coffin, Yu Lie also discovered another benefit of Daocheng's coffin.
That is the narrowness of the coffin, in order to prevent several adjacent coffins from interfering with each other, even the most inferior wooden coffin is mixed with lead plate gold leaf, and runes are drawn with silver juice, which can isolate the inside and outside.
Cultivating in this kind of narrow space that is enough to seal the poison of the golden stone can help the rest of the column to swallow the poison of the golden stone, and there is no escape.
