After a pillar of incense, his vision became clearer and clearer, and after checking that there were no foreign objects around, Zhou Yang returned to the tree hole and dragged the wolf's legs into the stone cave, and brought in the dead grass and other things, he was in a coma for an unknown number of days, and he was already hungry.

Only a cultivator of the Tianyuan Realm can open the valley, he has only opened the Yuan Realm, and there is no Bigu Dan, so he can't stand it if he doesn't eat for a day. But he really hasn't eaten roasted wolf legs, and it must not be as delicious as roast lamb legs.

"If you light a fire in the cave, how will the smoke be discharged?" Zhou Yang frowned.

"Most of the low-level demon beasts have no interest in smoke and are still a little afraid, but if the cultivator sees it, it will be a little troublesome. But now I can't control a lot, so I can't eat wolf meat raw. ”

Zhou Yang no longer hesitated, found a few stones, cut off a few pieces of wolf meat with a long sword and put them on it, and then rested for a while, condensed the little yuan power in his body, and reluctantly used the flame technique, set the dead trees and weeds on fire, and began to roast the meat.

The flames were very large, and the surroundings were lit red.

He felt that the smoke was not drifting towards the hole of the tree, but drifting towards the surrounding rocks, and after a short time disappeared to one side, and even the flames entered the rocks in wisps.

It was strange that he often roamed alone in the deep mountains and dense forests, and never noticed such a situation when he was making a fire.

He took advantage of the firelight to examine the rocks and surroundings, but found nothing unusual.

But what made Zhou Yang even more surprised was that if his body was close to the rock where the flames were drifting to, the Yuan Force at the dantian would have the feeling of coming out of his body, and if he was a little farther away, this feeling would be gone, what was going on?

Zhou Yang carefully inspected the rock wall on that side again, but it was not much different from ordinary rocks, but the color was slightly darker.

His realm is low, even if he has a formation, he can't find it, let alone find the reason. After thinking about it for a while, I simply didn't look for it.

In order to avoid being discovered, he originally planned to strictly control the amount of food, and when it was confirmed that it was safe, he would roast the meat once every two days, and if the situation was special, he had to eat raw meat. But now, it's not necessary, and you can't go hungry when it's time to eat.

He looked around again, and after making sure nothing unusual was happening, he began to grill in earnest.

The wolf meat has a peculiar smell, because he is hungry, Zhou Yang doesn't feel it, he starts to eat large pieces when he is half-cooked, and he eats it deliciously, thinking that it would be better if there was a pot of wine while eating.

In this way, it was three days, and most of the three days he spent exercising exercises, meditating, pranayama and healing.

Zhou Yang's cultivation method is the Xuangang Technique, which was created by the Purple Yuan Ancestor, which is not only for the cultivation of the exercises, but also can also play an auxiliary role in the recovery of injuries.

Because of the severity of the injury, his Xuangang technique was not smooth, and when the Yuan Force reached the damaged meridians, it was a tingling pain, and he couldn't run it for a week.

The so-called meridians are determined by life and death, and the truth and fiction cannot be lost. If the damaged meridians are not restored as soon as possible, the consequences are much more serious than trauma.

"Master, I'm poor! If there are two more healing pills, the recovery time will definitely be much faster. I only asked the sect for five days off this time, but now I don't know how long it has been, and now I am afraid that I will be removed from the sect, alas!" Zhou Yang thought of the consequences of being removed, and he was gloomy for a while.

Zhou Yang is an outer disciple of the Ziyuan Sect in Tu Yancheng, sixteen years old this year, he has been in the sect for five years, and he has not long stepped into the Kaiyuan Quadruple, and he belongs to the low-level cultivators in the sect.

Cultivating Yuan Li is a sign of entering the Kaiyuan Realm, and it is also the first step to becoming a cultivator. Yuan Li is not transformed by absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth, nor is it a spiritual power transformed by the Five Elements Spiritual Qi.

There are clouds in the Taoist scriptures: Dazai Qianyuan, the beginning of ten thousand materials.

Yuan Li comes from Yuan Qi, and this Yuan Qi is the Qi of Qianyuan, that is, the Qi of the Origin, the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth.

This qi is the essence of the way of heaven, which can nourish all things, and it is used by the people of the world until today.

The true Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi existed in the extreme void, and low-level cultivators could not feel it at all, and only high-level cultivators above the Heaven Yuan Realm had the opportunity to absorb it directly.

However, after countless years of evolution, some of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi slowly moved downward, blended with all things, and gradually evolved and mutated into the Five Elements Spiritual Qi and Semi-Reiki, the so-called semi-Reiki is the imperfect Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of evolutionary variation, and its functional efficiency is much worse than that of Reiki.

Kaiyuan Realm is an entry-level cultivator stage, and the ability to absorb and transform the Five Elements Spiritual Qi is very weak, but it is extremely sensitive to the semi-spiritual energy, and the absorption ability is very strong.

Yuan power is a mysterious power between the internal power of a martial artist and the spiritual power of a cultivator, so the Kaiyuan Realm is also a transition from a martial artist to a cultivator, but it has already broken away from the category of secular martial artists.

Because as long as you enter the Kaiyuan realm, you can practice all kinds of mysterious exercises or techniques, and Shouyuan has also increased a lot, and these exercises and spells are like immortal arts in the eyes of mortals, so in the eyes of mortals, cultivators are immortals.

The first step to becoming a cultivator is to cultivate Yuan Li, and if you want a cultivator to generate Yuan Li, you must first sense Reiki or semi-Aura, and there are generally two ways:

First, according to the cultivation method, the world's top martial artists have felt the semi-spiritual energy around them and absorbed it after years of hard cultivation, gradually transforming their internal force into yuan power.

The second is that the descendants of the cultivators perceive semi-spiritual energy or even spiritual energy with the inherited introductory exercises, and then cultivate the yuan power.

And Zhou Yang belongs to the second type.

Of course, in addition to these two paths, it is not excluded that people with special constitutions and special experiences will become cultivators.

Not all secular martial artists can cultivate Yuan Li, only those with extremely excellent qualifications and extremely tenacious minds can only succeed after a long period of hard work. Even so, the probability of entering the Kaiyuan Realm is extremely small, and there is no one in a thousand miles.

This probability made the secular warriors shake their heads and sigh, and they gave up after the penance was fruitless, and few could persevere, and the successful ones were even rarer.

It is difficult to produce cultivators in the mortal world, but the cultivation world is different. After male and female cultivators form Taoist couples, most of their descendants can enter the Kaiyuan Realm after penance, and this is the power of the bloodline.

The more powerful a cultivator is, the stronger his bloodline, and the stronger the power he inherits to his offspring, and some of his descendants are born suitable for cultivation, and they enter the realm much faster than ordinary people.

There are ten layers in the Kaiyuan realm, the first three are the early stage of the Kaiyuan realm, the fourth to sixth layers are the middle stage, the seventh to ninth layer is the late stage, and the tenth layer is the peak of the Kaiyuan realm.

The Yuan Power of Kaiyuan cultivators, in addition to comprehending semi-spiritual qi or spiritual energy through penance, is the fastest to replenish with spiritual stones.

Spiritual energy and semi-spiritual energy are scattered between the infinite heaven and earth, and they are very thin, and the perception and absorption are naturally much slower.

The spirit stone, on the other hand, is the aura or semi-aura that has been accumulated over countless years under special circumstances, is rich in content and easy to be absorbed by cultivators, which can be described as a special gift from nature to cultivators.

The abundant aura or semi-aura in the spirit stone, after being absorbed by the Kaiyuan Mirror cultivator, can be transformed into yuan power in the body, which is much stronger than absorbing it after penance cultivation.

As an outer disciple of the Kaiyuan Realm, Zhou Yang could receive twenty first-grade spirit stones every month. Sounds like a lot, but it's not enough. He cultivates every day, and he needs at least one first-grade spirit stone, and he needs two pieces to absorb it with all his strength.

Moreover, the purchase of elixirs, materials, magic weapons, etc. also requires spirit stones, and this monthly rule is obviously much worse.

For him, there weren't many ways to earn spirit stones.

One is to receive sect tasks or contribute to the sect, get sect contribution points, and then use the contribution points to exchange for spirit stones, pills, magic weapons, magic tricks, etc.

The second is to collect spirit grass, elixir or hunt demon beasts to exchange for the above items in the market.

Zhou Yang entered the Kaiyuan Mirror two years after entering the sect, and then it took nearly three years to break through to the fourfold realm and reach the middle of the Kaiyuan Dynasty.

Without spirit stones and other materials, no matter how good the qualifications are, they can't do it.

He was not from a big family, and he did not have a powerful elder to support him, so he had to find his own way to cultivate materials and pills.

Finally, he risked his life to get some demon beast materials or elixirs back, and he had to fight wits and courage with the profiteers in the market, and bargain for a long time, which was more tiring than killing a low-level demon beast.

With his strength, the spirit stones he earned could barely maintain his cultivation, and the fire spirit talisman and healing pill were saved by him for half a year, especially the healing pill, which was a must-have for cultivators to go out, even if they ate a few fewer meals, they had to exchange for spare.

Bigu Dan is also a common thing for many cultivators to keep when they go out, and if he takes one table, he will not need to eat for ten days, but the price is very expensive, and he naturally can't afford it with his net worth.

It's hard to cultivate, and it's even harder to earn spirit stones!

"When you return to the division, nine times out of ten you will be removed, and the rules of the door cannot be violated. But Uncle Zhong is only a deacon at the outer gate, and he is afraid that he will not have enough face. But where will he go after being removed?" Zhou Yang's head is big, and he really has nowhere else to go in the huge cultivation world.

"Forget it, I'm afraid of a bird, it's not bad to be a casual cultivator, master, I'm more unrestrained, and I'm at ease!"

Besides, although he is in the sect, he is not much better than the wanderers outside, and the sect has little supply, so he can only work his own.

In addition to working hard, he often has to tear up in the market and earn some spirit stone flowers, so he is not particularly afraid of being a casual cultivator.

Thinking about it is one thing, but then again, the days of casual cultivation are even more difficult, there is no sect as a backstage, and the situation can be imagined.

And when he left the sect, the treatment of twenty spirit stones per month was gone. If you leave the sect, you will really be homeless.

Zhou Yang didn't have a home, his parents were originally the guards of a small family in Tuyan City, and they were also cultivators.

His father went out with the young master once and never came back, and his mother found out about it, and searched everywhere like crazy, but to no avail, and then died of depression.

At that time, he had just remembered, and his memory was very vague, but later he often remembered the kind eyes of his parents.
