Chapter 16: The First Test of the Pill
"Next, please go to the right side of the three spirit roots and the four spirit roots and under the age of twenty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ In addition, in order to reach the late stage of Qi cultivation, Daoists who have Dan, Instrument, Fu, and Array specialties go to the left and wait for the verification of their own disciples. β
At this time, the crowd began to move, there were hundreds of people who went to the right alone, and there were more than 100 people on the left, and Huang Wei also greeted Di Chong and walked to the right with the crowd.
At this time, there were only a few hundred people on the field, and they all looked at the people who walked by with envy. "The rest of the Taoist friends seem to have failed to meet the standard, I can only say sorry, but you don't have to be discouraged, there are still two remaining sects to recruit disciples after a period of time, everyone still has a chance, in view of the fact that there are a lot of scattered cultivators who do not know their spiritual root qualifications every time in the past, this sect has specially prepared a spirit test stone, which can verify the qualifications for you for free, and the Taoist friends in need please go forward. β
Sure enough, dozens of people walked out, only to see a few disciples take out a few pentagonal disc-shaped things and put them on a few tables, and everyone lined up a few lines to go forward to verify them one by one.
After a while, I saw a person of the same age as himself, who shouted excitedly: "Hahaha, I am a mutant spirit root, I am a mutant spirit root," a look of dancing with his hands and feet, attracting envious eyes from everyone, even several foundation building monks were no exception.
After calming down a little, he continued to start the verification, and finally Di Chong put his hand between the discs with trepidation, only to see that there were five color areas of gold, blue, yellow, green, and red on the disc, Di Chong slowly injected mana into it, and saw that there were three kinds of light coming out of the disc.
Di Chong couldn't help but start to get a little excited in his heart, it seemed that he was a middle qualification of the three attributes, so he looked at him with anticipation like the person who looked like he was in charge of the foundation building period in his sixties.
"This little friend is the spiritual root of the three attributes of fire wood and gold, it's really a pity," a basin of cold water was poured down, and I saw that the foundation building monk sighed slightly and continued, "I see that Xiaoyou's bone age is almost twenty-five or sixteen years old, according to this, don't say that building a foundation before the age of thirty, even if you can build a foundation at the age of fifty, it is extremely difficult, generally around thirty years old is the best time to build a foundation, and it will become more and more difficult in the future." However, if Xiaoyou can break through to the later stage in a short period of time, he may be able to pass the assessment of the next two cases. β
Of course, Di Chong knew that the old man's last few words were just to comfort himself, so he walked to the side with a heavy heart, silently watching the tests of others, but his heart was difficult to calm down for a long time.
It wasn't until it was getting dark that the various tests ended, and the personnel recruited by the Izumo Sect were finally determined, and the people who failed to pass slowly walked out, and some people left immediately, but there were still many people watching.
At this time, Huang Wei rushed towards Di with excitement on his face: "Daoyou Di don't have to be discouraged, there are two more chances in the future, I believe that Daoyou will have the opportunity to join the sect in a while." β
"Thank you Huang Daoyou for comforting, I will definitely work hard, congratulations to Huang Daoyou for successfully passing the assessment and joining the Izumo Sect. The two said a brief goodbye, and Huang Wei turned around and walked back.
I saw that the disciples of the Izumo Sect raised their hands one after another, and released more than ten flying boats of different sizes, and hundreds of people flew up one after another, and flew out of sight in a moment, at this time Di Chong silently turned around and walked back to the inn.
In the past few days, Di Chong still hasn't been able to get out of his heavy mood, and he has been staying in the room for several days without going out. At the same time, something that annoyed him even more came, he didn't have many spirit stones on his body, and he had to wait for at least two months in the future, although there was little hope, but it was always an opportunity, and he couldn't give up easily.
The next day, Di Chong went out early in the morning, walked around the city for a long time, and walked into a pill shop called "Baicaotang", the name was similar to the secular medicine shop, as soon as he entered the door, a young man with four layers of qi practice greeted him.
"Welcome to Daoist friends, I don't know what pills Daoist friends need, the pills and medicinal materials for all kinds of Qi cultivation period are very complete. β
Di Chong looked at it casually for a while, "I don't know if your store can buy medicinal herbs?"
"Daoist friends want to sell medicinal materials, please come with me. "Led Di Chong to a room at the back of the store, and saw an old man on the eighth floor of Qi practicing Qi drinking tea while looking at a book, very leisurely.
"This is Feng's business, and he is fully responsible for the identification and acquisition of medicinal materials in the store. Then he turned around and went back to the front hall.
The old man glanced up at Di Chong. "Daoyou, please sit down, I don't know what kind of medicinal herbs you want to sell, please take out the old man and take a look,"
Di Chong waved his hand and took out a herb and put it in front of the old man, before he sat down next to him and watched the old man identify the medicinal herbs.
I saw that the old man picked up the medicinal herbs and looked at them carefully, first his face was slightly happy, and then he frowned and sighed and shook his head, "This red blood ginseng is more than 100 years old, but it's a pity that it is not well preserved, and the aura has lost a lot, which is really a pity,"
Hearing this, Di Chong's heart was also cold, "I don't know how many spirit stones this red blood ginseng can be worth?"
"If the aura is not lost, at least it can be worth more than a thousand spirit stones, and now it is worth five hundred spirit stones, seeing that the face of the Taoist friend is very raw, the first time I came to the shop, how about the old man prescribe six hundred spirit stones to the Taoist friend?"
Di Chong thought for a moment, "So let's make a deal." β
The old man waved his hand and released a small pile of spirit stones on the table, "Please collect spirit stones from fellow Daoists,"
Di Chong's divine sense swept away, and then put it away, arched his hand from the old man, and turned around to leave, "Fellow Daoist, please stay,"
"I don't know what else is going on with you?"
"Just now I saw Daoyou casually take out this red blood ginseng, compared to Daoyou is a casual cultivator, I don't know how to preserve this medicinal material, but all the medicinal materials that are old must be stored in a jade box or a special wooden box, so that their aura can not be lost. β
"Thank you Feng Daoyou for your advice, I really have a casual cultivation in Xia, and I have just arrived in this Tianyun City for a short time, and I don't know much about this. β
"Daoist friends don't have to be polite, Daoist friends are now at the sixth level of cultivation, why don't you buy some pills in the small shop, relying on the power of the pills, maybe you will be able to break through to the seventh layer soon, and then the chances of participating in that new conference will be much greater."
Di Chong thought for a while, "What Daoist friends said is very true, and I also ask Daoist friends to recommend a suitable pill for the next one,"
After a while, Di Chong walked out of the Hundred Grass Hall, but the six hundred spirit stones he had just harvested were less than half, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed in his heart. Jiang is really still old and spicy, and the old man guesses his mind thoroughly.
Since then, Di Chong has rarely gone out, and has been taking those two bottles of Qi Gathering Pill in the room to cultivate, Di Chong took the pill for the first time, and his cultivation speed has really increased more than twice as much as his previous cultivation speed, bringing surprises and some regrets, if he had these pills before, his cultivation at this time would definitely not be much lower than that Huang Wei, and it should not be difficult to successfully pass the assessment of the sect.
A month later, the Qingyun Sect came to recruit disciples, and during this time, although Di Chong's cultivation speed was much faster, there was still a lot of distance from the seventh layer, so he had no choice but to try his luck, it was always an opportunity. The result is still the same as last time.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed, and when it came to the last date for Tianyun Sect to recruit disciples, although there was still no breakthrough, he still went to participate in the most, and this was almost his last chance.
It was getting late, the conference was over, Di Chong was turned away again, his face was like ashes at this time, and his mood was even worse to the extreme, he was going to turn around and leave, only to see the head of the Cloud Sect open his mouth that day and said, " The three sects recruitment conference has ended here, all the failed Taoist friends do not need to be discouraged, work hard to cultivate and wait for the next opportunity, in addition, after the three sects discussed and decided to issue the spirit list three days later, the spirit list is improved compared to before, not only some of the list issued by the elders of Jindan, but also many things needed by the disciples in the late stage of foundation building or the peak, as many as hundreds, so you still have some opportunities, all Taoist friends who have completed these tasks, you can bring the things on the list to the three sects in the city, and find the deacons of each sect to handle specific mattersγ β
This sentence inevitably brought Di Chong a glimmer of hope, but at the same time, he had a lot of doubts, so he turned around and asked an elderly monk beside him, "This fellow Daoist, may I ask me, what is going on with this Spirit Offering List?"
"Alas, these big sects are really exhausted, these are all some high-level spirit ores or spirit grasses, all of which are some materials required by the Jindan elders of various sects, and anyone who can provide one of them can be accepted into the sect as an outer disciple,"
"Oh. These are all things that Jindan stage monks need, how can low-level monks like me have them? Besides, isn't it easy to find these materials with the ability of Jindan monks?"
"There are many scattered cultivators, there will always be a few people who have some adventures, and some family monks will also take out some in exchange for this opportunity to enter the sect, although the Jindan powerhouse has high mana, but the things needed to reach that realm are very rare, if you look for it yourself, it will take a lot of time, and it is normal to find materials through the power of the sect. β
"Then these materials are also considered treasures, why are so many people full of anticipation, and they have exchanged treasures for the identity of an outer disciple, and if they are sold, they can be exchanged for a lot of cultivation resources. β
"Nowadays, most of the cultivation resources are occupied by the major forces, and it is difficult for casual cultivation to survive. Even if a low-level monk like me has these things, it is a hot potato, and it is very likely that he will be killed and robbed of the treasure if he shows the news, and he can't use it himself, so it is better to exchange it for this opportunity to get started,"
