Ninety-Six In the Peach Blossom Forest (1)

For monks in the Qi refining stage, a retreat usually lasts no more than 100 days, and if it fails to achieve results within 100 days, the retreat is most likely a failure. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info plus Ji Ruo is seeking this kind of breakthrough in the great realm for the first time, the possibility of failure is already very high, the closer to this time limit, the more anxious Huang Chang is in his heart for her. But I couldn't help at all, so I had to sit and wait.

At this moment, I finally heard Ji Ruo's voice again, although it was conveyed through the sound transmission note bird, but I could still hear the girl's full of joy and joy, obviously it couldn't be the frustration after the failure. This made Huang Chang also very happy, and immediately jumped up and quickly ran towards the mountain.

The little girl who was squatting on the golden bridge and crying her nose has finally stepped into the ranks of mid-stage monks! And it was a one-time success! This was quite unexpected by Huang Chang, after all, Ji Ruo was able to go up the mountain mainly because of his royal status, and his own spiritual root talent was the same as Huang Chang's, compared to the "normal standard" of Kunlun's disciples, it was actually quite insufficient. Huang Chang can make up for her lack of talent with her wisdom and insight, but Ji Ruo's identity does not help her cultivation.

Fortunately, the little girl herself knows this, and she has been quite diligent over the years, although she is not as hard as Wu Daniu to the point of self-abuse, but she has never relaxed. So far, he has finally broken through the first big pass on the road of cultivating immortals, at least he has met the basic requirements of Xi Kunlun for his disciples, and there is no difference between them and those who are normally selected.

Although as a disciple of Xi Kunlun, after ten years of study, he can basically reach the mid-stage realm, but the difference between one step earlier and one step later is still huge. Don't look at the difference in the past two or three years, but it is directly related to future achievements - the sect master has already counted: all the monks in the history of Kunlun who can reach the Fa Yuan period, if not earlier, must at least complete the first great realm breakthrough in the time period of seven or eight years of entry. After that, those who would take nine or even ten years to reach the Quadruple Heaven would basically be the life of a Qi Refining Cultivator for the rest of their lives. Of course, this is not absolute, and there are examples of late bloomers, but they are rare.

Therefore, Ji Ruo's success shows that her potential has not been exhausted, and there is still the possibility of continuing to advance in the future, and this was originally what Huang Chang was most worried about - although Changqingzi kept telling him that in cultivating immortals, talent conditions are far from being the decisive factor, perseverance, wisdom, resources, and luck...... These are far more important than talent. But through these years of personal practice, Huang Chang always felt that Changqingzi's words were really a bit of "a full man does not know that a hungry man is hungry" - to be able to cultivate to the late stage of the Fa Yuan Dynasty and become the head of the West Kunlun Sect, his talent must be first-class. And the disciples who have been able to be recruited by West Kunlun Mountain over the years are most likely to have the best talents, and in the eyes of these geniuses, the talent of cultivating immortals is of course not so important, because they are good enough.

Anyway, I won't encounter a bottleneck because of talent problems, so naturally I don't care too much. It's like in his previous life, he often heard rich people say "it's okay to be poor", thin people say "it's okay to be fat", and big-breasted girls say "it's good to have a flat chest" - hypocrisy!

As for disciples like Huang Chang and Ji Ruo, who had poor talent and were able to enter the West Kunlun Immortal Sect due to other factors, the shortcomings in talent were felt all the time in their daily cultivation. The so-called poor spiritual root, the most direct manifestation is that when practicing gong and refining qi, the efficiency of introducing spiritual energy mana into the body is much worse than that of those with excellent talents.

Of course, inducing qi into the body and cultivating immortals to seek the Tao is itself a process of gradually changing the physical quality of immortal cultivators and repairing the qualifications of spiritual roots. Later, as his body gradually approached the Fa Yuan Immortal Body, his qi induction ability naturally became stronger and stronger. Therefore, a big sect like Kunlun said that the spiritual root talent is actually not important, because the talent only affects the middle and early stage of qi refining, and in the late stage of qi refining, if you test the spiritual root again, all of them must be extremely good. After entering the Fayuan period, it was completely transformed into the body of the immortal spirit, and his natural talent was extremely high, and he was no longer bound by the spiritual root.

...... It's just that, having said that, when Xi Kunlun recruits disciples in the mortal world, the first thing is to look at the spiritual root talent - the entry stage and the early stage of qi refining, the role of the spiritual root talent is irreplaceable after all. Everyone also spent ten successful years, and Huang Chang estimated that the results he could obtain could only reach about seven to eighty percent of those disciples who entered the sect normally. In other words, if he didn't use other auxiliary means, his cultivation progress would of course only be seven to eighty percent of that of others—of course, all other things being equal.

Huang Chang solved this problem with the support of his master Changqingzi and relied on his own wisdom and wisdom to obtain immortal cultivation resources that were far richer than ordinary disciples, creating an extremely superior cultivation environment. At the same time, the vision beyond the times and the careful guidance from the master also allowed him not to take many detours in his cultivation, and it can be said that he used every bit of energy in the most correct direction, so that he could maintain a cultivation speed similar to those of the best fellow disciples, or even surpass.

But Ji Ruo's conditions in this regard are far inferior to him, although Ji Ruo also has an elder of the same clan in the Fa Yuan period who has been silently taking care of her, and the various cultivation resources she has given her are far more abundant than ordinary disciples, but after all, unlike Huang Chang, who mainly relies on the spirit stones he earns, no one has the right to interfere with how to spend them. No matter how much Yuan Zhenzi takes care of Ji Ruo, he can't openly destroy the sect's distribution system to the point of making other disciples feel unfair. What's more, in addition to Ji Ruo, there are several other disciples of the Ji family in the sect who are in the Qi refining stage, all of whom are the nephews of Yuan Zhenzi's descendants, and he can't help one over the other.

Therefore, Huang Chang has always been very worried that Ji Ruo will gradually be pulled down by his peers because of his backwardness at the beginning, so that he will lose the courage and determination to strive for the upper reaches and advance to the Fa Yuan - for female cultivators, if they want to survive the Fa Yuan Tribulation, it is already more difficult than that of male cultivators, and the hope of success is lower, even many female cultivators with excellent talent and good cultivation progress have little confidence in themselves, and would rather stay in the Qi refining period for the rest of their lives. For example, Huang Chang's de facto enlightenment teacher, Chen Xiangrong and Senior Sister Chen are like this. Ji Ruo was born in the Great Zhou royal family, her status is noble, and she has a better way out than ordinary monks, if she doesn't want to take the risk of advancement, it is also human nature.

This time Ji Ruo's successful breakthrough enabled her to at least reach the normal progress of Kunlun's disciples, and she would not lose the courage to attack the Fa Yuan Realm from the beginning, laying the foundation for continuing to move forward on this path of immortal cultivation in the future, which was of great significance.

- Maybe even Ji Ruo himself didn't think about it so much, but Huang Chang had already thought about it very thoroughly.
