Chapter 14, The Spiritual Root
Although as soon as he came, looking at the fog that surrounded the valley, he roughly confirmed that this was the location of Fang City. But out of an abundance of caution, he did not plan to visit immediately.
Instead, he stayed in this woods for a few days and turned all the loot into his own strength.
Be prepared to visit in the best possible condition, and if something goes wrong, you will have some confidence in dealing with it or escaping.
Today, Qi Yun's preparations are completed, and he gets up and plans to go to the surrounding villages, find a villager to spend the night and rest, and then go officially tomorrow.
As soon as he entered the surrounding village, Qi Yun saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy dressed in white, standing at the entrance of the village and talking to a few villagers.
He was slightly stunned, the outsiders who appeared here at this time were still like a rich boy, but there were no servants with him, and they might not be ordinary people.
habitually glanced at each other with spiritual eye magic.
After looking at it, Qi Yun was a little surprised, this white-clothed young man was shrouded in a faint spiritual light, and its brightness was stronger than his.
You know, this boy is two or three years younger than him!
However, the few Heavenly Wolf Sect immortal cultivators whose aura was stronger than this young man all died in his hands.
It can be seen that cultivation is not a criterion for weighing strength.
If you really want to work hard, you have to look at your scheming, and you have to look at the guy in your hand, cultivation is very important, but not all.
The young man in the distance noticed that someone was watching him, and he turned to look at Qi Yun, and his eyes were also full of aura.
"This brother Tai also went to Guangnan Valley, right? I have seen Brother Tai in Wan Yimeng in Xia Wanjialing. Shall we go to worship together?"
The young man was out of breath when he ran, and before he could wait for his breath to stabilize, he couldn't wait to say to Qi Yun.
Qi Yun saw the young man's appearance clearly at this time, and saw that the other party had clear eyebrows, white and tender skin, and well-developed chest muscles.
He sneered in his heart: Either show it generously, and then wrap it up well if you are a man dressed as a woman, are you afraid that others will not see that you are a man and a woman?
What he thought in his heart was different from what he said, and when he heard the other party's request, Qi Yun said quietly: "Of course you can, but do you know where Guangnan Valley is?"
"Hehe, I just heard from my family that the Quang Nam Valley is on the south side of Quang Nam Mountain, and the gateway has been shrouded in fog for many years, and I don't know where it is.
When I asked the villagers, he didn't know. But Brother Tai must know, right?"
The young man scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and finally looked at Qi Yun with expectant eyes.
Qi Yun listened to the other party's words, forcibly held back the smile in his heart, and did not expose him, "Little brother is the first time to go far away, right?"
"Big brother can see it. It was indeed the first time that I had been so far away from home. The boy nodded a little shyly.
"Okay, come with me, I'll take you. Qi Yun was originally only fifty percent sure, and the place shrouded in fog was the Guangnan Valley he was looking for.
But now when I listen to this young man, I have a full grasp.
"Great, now we can take a good look. When the young man heard Qi Yun's words, he couldn't help but cheer excitedly.
Seeing the young man like this, Qi Yun had more thoughts in his heart.
He was a cunning and deceitful man, and he often deceived others with lies. As a good liar, he will often wonder if others are cheating on him.
Not long after stepping into the immortal cultivation world, in addition to learning some knowledge of the immortal cultivation world from the book, there was also a lot of knowledge from the Baimei Dao Chief.
The old guy looked like he was about to become a fine man, and it was hard for him to see even if he was lying. In case the nine truths and one falsehood of the words pit him in a key place, it will be enough for him to bear.
And this "boy" looks like the kind of fledgling who is not deeply involved in the world and will blush if he tells a lie.
To paraphrase some useful information from his mouth, it is perfect to verify it in pairs.
"What do you want to see in Guangnan Valley?" Qi Yun and the young man walked slowly towards the place where the mist was, that place had already been secretly surveyed by him several times, and he knew it clearly.
"That's too much, I want to see the spells of other families, and I want to exchange something I like with others. The boy said casually
In this way, the two walked and chatted at the same time. In fact, it was idle chatter, but it was better to say that Qi Yun was asking, and the young man was answering.
Qi Yun received a lot of information from the immortal cultivation realm from this young man's mouth without the other party noticing.
For example, although there are many sects of cultivating immortals in the Chu State, there are only three major sects that can be called dominant, namely the Shangqing faction, the moon worship gate, and the cliff gate.
These three major sects all have several Yuan Infant Stage cultivators in charge, and they are the leading forces in the Chu State Immortal Cultivation Realm.
The division of strength in the immortal cultivation world, refining qi, building a foundation, forming a pill, and forming a baby, it is meaningless to know more about it.
Because the vast majority of monks are able to build a foundation in their lifetime, it is already remarkable. If the extravagance is too high, it is just like whether the peasants think that the emperor will eat five buns at a meal and go to the ground with a golden hoe.
The three major sects are at the top level, so what are they in the Heavenly Wolf Sect?
In fact, it's really nothing, according to what the young man said, the sphere of influence can dominate within a county, and there will definitely be an ancestor in the infancy stage.
If there are several immortal cultivation sects within a county, each divided into a region, then the person with the highest cultivation in the immortal cultivation sect is only in the Dan period.
Of course, the real people in the Dan period are also amazing, and most of them can come out to open up a family of cultivating immortals and become the ancestor of a clan.
It was far from something that these two little Qi cultivators could underestimate.
One thing Qi Yun still cared about was the matter of the spiritual root.
What is his talent for three spiritual roots? Could it be that when he worships some great sects of cultivating immortals, people will exclude him as soon as they see his spiritual root?
After the boy's explanation, he understood.
Most immortal cultivators don't know how to get the spiritual root. But there is a consensus, that is, if a person does not have a spiritual root, then he should not even think about cultivating immortals.
Because you can't feel the aura at all, let alone cultivate the mana.
But there are too few people who are born with spiritual roots among ordinary people. Not to say that it is one in a thousand, it is also one in a hundred miles.
But that's it, people who have spiritual roots and can embark on the path of cultivating immortals still only account for a little bit of them, and the vast majority of people still live a mediocre life.
Because there are two difficulties.
The first is that the distribution of mortals is too wide, and the Immortal Cultivation Sect looks for immortal seedlings once every ten years, and it is impossible to find all the children of the right age.
Most of them are screened around children in the city, and remote places such as rural areas are basically abandoned.
However, as an agrarian society, the vast majority of people live in rural areas, and at most one-fifth of the people live in cities.
The second difficulty is also the qualification problem that Qi Yun is worried about. Martial arts training depends on the root bone qualification, and cultivating immortals depends on the spiritual root qualification, and everything you do must be qualified.
Practicing martial arts has good or bad root bone qualifications, good root bone qualifications, and fast learning, the master will definitely like it, and he will spare no effort to cultivate.
Bad root qualifications, slow learning, maybe you won't have any great achievements in your life. Naturally, it is not taken seriously, and no one can look at it.
The spiritual root qualifications of cultivating immortals are also the same.
Generally speaking, the spiritual root is divided into five element attributes, such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Most people's spiritual roots are a mixture of these five or four multi-attributes.
Although these people can also sense the aura of heaven and earth, the effect of their cultivation can be said to be miserable. Not to mention the slow batch, it is difficult to achieve great achievements in a lifetime.
If you don't have too many chances, at most, you will not move forward if you practice the basic exercises of the five elements to the fifth or sixth level.
Generally, there is no hope of crossing the foundation building period in a lifetime.
Therefore, spiritual roots with five or even four attributes are also called "pseudo-spiritual roots" by people in the immortal cultivation world, to represent the difference between them and "true spiritual roots" that only have two or three attributes and can be cultivated relatively quickly.
As for the single spiritual root with only one attribute, it is called the "Heavenly Spirit Root" by the immortal cultivation world, which means the darling of the heavens.
Because of having this kind of spiritual root, no matter what kind of attribute it is, the cultivation speed is two or three times that of an ordinary spiritual root.
Moreover, when you cultivate to the peak of the foundation building period, you don't need to face the bottleneck that you have to deal with when you enter the foundation stage, and you can easily start to form a pill.
Knowing this, Qi Yun knew it in his heart.
Tianlinggen is the kind of genius who is a scholar, a prodigy, a high number of other teachers can't teach it, he can be self-taught with it.
It's like hanging on.
The spiritual root of the four attributes and five attributes is the kind of scum. You teach him to learn, and nothing falls behind, but he just can't learn, no way.
And his Qi Yun three-attribute spiritual root is neither that kind of scumbag nor that kind of scholar, just like the ordinary people who account for the majority of all living beings, the midstream level.
If you work hard, you may be able to see more wonderful scenery with Xueba.
In this way, there is nothing dissatisfying about him than the above. Who let him reincarnate with average skills, and didn't reincarnate a Tianlinggen's fetus!
With the talent of the Three Spirit Roots, he basically met the basic threshold of worshipping the Immortal Cultivation Sect.
As he spoke, the place shrouded in fog had arrived.
The boy ended his rambling story unsatisfactorily, he hadn't said so happily in front of others for a long time.
The feeling of being attentive and listening to his own story gave him the momentum of not vomiting and unhappy, and Qi Yun's favorability also increased greatly.
So without thinking about it, he shook out all the things he knew about the immortal cultivation world, which was quite pretentious.
Qi Yun was also very happy to hear it, and sometimes asked a few questions, asking the young man to say something he wanted to know.
It's a pity, this is the place, Qi Yun can't take the young man back to the village, let's go again!
Therefore, he had no choice but to look at the young man who kept his mouth shut and looked at the mist with bright eyes.
"Brother Tai, whose disciple is it, your surname?" After the young man excitedly finished reading the fog in front of him, he remembered that he didn't know the name of the person in front of him, and turned his head and asked.
This kind of questioning the identity of the other party is the same as the middle of the martial arts.
If it is a decent person, the other party has to take a high look, and he has to be polite. If you are an unknown third-rate faction, no one will look at you squarely, and you will go straight to the next one.
If it's really a scattered person, maybe there will be the idea of using power to oppress people and bully them.
Of course, there is no existence in front of him, and Qi Yun doesn't know much about the immortal cultivation world, and it's not easy to make up an identity.
"There is no sect or sect in Xia, and it is not from any family, but it has always practiced on its own. You don't have to have a surname, and the usual name is strictly adhered to. ”
Yan Shouyi's name was made up by him, and there is no such person, and he doesn't have to worry about causing trouble for himself because of this name.
"Your Excellency is a loose cultivator!" the young man was a little surprised, but there was no discriminatory look on his face, but he was a little surprised.
He excitedly circled around Qi Yun, as if looking at a rare thing, and looked at Qi Yun again.
"What's the matter, do I have flowers on my face?" Qi Yun asked with some surprise.
"No, no, no, it's just that I've been in the family all the time, and the outsiders I've seen are all immortal cultivators from other families, and it's really the first time I've seen a casual cultivator.
Of course, I don't mean to look down on Your Excellency, and our family has never discriminated against casual cultivation. The young man hurriedly explained, and there was some pride in his words.
However, it is because of the enlightened approach of his family, proud and proud.
"The ancestor of our Wan family turned out to be a casual cultivator. But then I was lucky enough to enter the Immortal Cultivation Sect, the official disciple of the Shangqing Sect, and this is why we have ten thousand families. Therefore, we have an ancestral precept that we do not discriminate against loose cultivators. ”
The young man smiled and said, "Actually, not only our ten thousand families, but also some other family ancestors are also loose cultivators, so they don't have any bad feelings towards loose cultivators.
It's just that the proportion of the immortal cultivators where these families are located is too small. This is why the Xiuxian family discriminates against loose cultivators. ”
Qi Yun also understood, just like the elders turned over and made a fortune with mud legs, and remembered the hardships of the year, so they would not discriminate against mud legs.
If you have made a fortune for many generations and have been living a rich life, you naturally have a sense of superiority over mud legs, so that you can appear to be a superior person.
"Well, it seems that I'm still lucky, the first time I met someone like my little brother. ”
"But Brother Yan, I've asked so many things that everyone in the immortal cultivation world knows along the way, is it also a newcomer who has just come out of the mountain?" the young man rolled his eyes, combined with what Qi Yun said before, and suddenly said.
Qi Yun smiled slightly, patted the young man's shoulder, and said sincerely: "It's not that I deliberately deceive my little brother at home, it's just that I have just entered the immortal cultivation realm, and I have some concerns. Please also little brother Haihan. ”
The boy shook his shoulders unnaturally, "It's okay, I don't mind." Brother Tai just call me Yimeng, if you don't understand anything, just ask. ”
"Hee-hee, I didn't think I would have to teach others. Wan Yimeng's sermon was vivid.
"I'll ask you if there's any problem below, but it's time for us to go into the valley. Qi Yun pointed to the sky and reminded.
"Oops, I almost forgot about it. After Wan Yimeng glanced at the sky along his fingers, he immediately shouted in a hurry.
PS: Since I know that you are going to complain, I will say it myself. The level of immortal cultivation is set and the spiritual root is set, copying the legend of mortal immortal cultivation.
Personally, I think that the originator of mortal flow, this setting is still good. The logic is self-consistent, and there are no loopholes.
And if I have to make my own settings, I guess there will be a lot of mistakes and omissions, so I won't be ugly.
