Chapter 4: Cultivation in the Gathering Spirit Sect
It has been 1,500 years since the opening of the Gathering Spirit Sect, and at its peak, a radius of 5,000 miles was the territory of the Gathering Spirit Sect, but with the gradual decline of the Immortal Sect of the First Spirit Yuan Infant Ancestor, the immortal cultivation families who obeyed the orders of the Gathering Spirit Sect have also reversed, making this land chaotic now.
This is what Bai Xiao learned not long ago, but when he stepped into the Gathering Spirit Sect, he was still shocked by the scenery in front of him, at the main gate of the Gathering Spirit Sect, a huge stone was horizontally engraved with the three big characters of the Gathering Spirit Sect, and on the other side was a stone statue of an unknown height! A dull feeling came to mind.
"This is the stone statue of the Ancestor of the First Spirit...... Yuan Ying!" Elder Yi spoke softly, as if he was muttering to himself, with a strong light in his eyes. Entering the door is a long wooden corridor with two intersecting mountains at the end of the corridor, where some of the quaint buildings can be clearly seen.
Looking at the long corridor, it didn't take long to arrive, and at the end was a huge square, with a bronze tripod in the center, and three thick incense sticks inserted into it. There are many teenagers and girls like Bai Xiao and others in the square, who are obviously new disciples.
Behind the square was a piece of buildings, stretching into the unseen distance, and many disciples in white clothes were hurrying through, and there was prosperity!
"I lack a handyman to guard the medicine field, so it's up to you. After Elder Yi finished speaking, he pointed at Bai Xiao.
"You can do the registration of disciples, and don't worry about anything else. ”
"Yes, the disciples obeyed, and the rest of the disciples came with me," Qiu Yuancheng replied with a bow, and then took the lead towards the square.
"Bai Xiao will see you later!" Wu Hao said goodbye as he walked past Bai Xiao. Others also said one after another, after all, they can be regarded as companions in adversity.
"Let's go, come with me, your name is Bai Xiao?" Elder Yi looked back and continued to walk slowly.
"Yes!" Bai Xiao replied casually, it was not easy to enter the Gathering Spirit Sect, and it was okay to be a handyman, as long as it was not too troublesome. It's better to sleep more!Bai Xiao thought to himself. I also felt a wave of exhaustion.
Follow Elder Yi all the way through the wooden corridor, and along the way, he met many disciples who respectfully saluted Elder Yi, this guy is quite powerful! Why didn't he fly? How fast was that, thinking back to the amazing speed just now, everyone came to the Gathering Spirit Sect before they even reacted. That's a lot faster than an airplane on Earth!
"It's here!" Just as Bai Xiao was struggling with his eyelids, Elder Yi's voice finally came. In front of him was a vast medicinal field, from which bursts of medicinal fragrance wafted out. The surrounding area is sparsely populated, only a few wooden attics in the medicine field, and a middle-aged man is walking quickly out of one of the attics.
"Disciple to meet Elder Yi!" The person who came was dressed in white, with a resolute face, but the beard under his mouth looked decadent. Grabbed Bai Xiao's glance.
"Wu Zheng, this is a new medicine boy, and I will be your junior sister in the future, you can take care of it more!" After Elder Yi finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and walked towards the attic.
"Yes!
"What's your name?"
"Bai Xiao!" Bai Xiao said absentmindedly, his eyes fixed on some bright red fruits in the medicine field next to him. I don't know how it tastes.
"Well, Senior Sister Bai, you can call me Senior Brother Wu, the medicine field belongs to the sect, and our usual task is to guard the medicine garden, and there are twenty lower grade spirit stones every month. You are a new disciple, and some necessary items will be provided to you. There is nothing to do on weekdays, just deal with Elder Yi's alchemy waste slag, and the position of the entire sect is not bad!" Wu Zheng couldn't help but be proud when he said this.
"But the only rule here is that you must not pick the elixir without permission!" Speaking of this, Wu Zheng's face couldn't help but turn pale, as if he recalled something bad.
"You'll live here in the future, I'm not far away!" Wu Zheng walked to a wooden house and pushed the door open, the inside was very simple, there was a table and chairs in the center of the room, there was a stone bed against the wall inside, and nothing else.
"Live here?" Bai Xiao was quite shocked, although there was a more humble environment than this when he was on a mission on Earth, but it was only for a while, and Bai Xiao was completely disappointed at the thought of sleeping on a stone slab every day.
"Questions?"
"No!
"That's good! This is your identity token, and the storage bag, which can be used as long as you drip blood to recognize the owner! Wu was pointing to the table, which was a small gray bag with a wooden token.
"Because you don't have spiritual power yet, this is a long-term food pill, and the effect is that you won't go hungry for a month. ”
The sun was setting, and soon it was completely dark, the moon was revealed, and after sending Wu Zheng away, Bai Xiao took the storage bag and looked around, it was not big, the material was unknown, it was like a sachet, closed his eyes and sank into it, and soon he felt a small gray space, about to put down a bed, and there were some items in the corner of the space.
The next morning, before dawn and sunrise, Bai Xiao got up, although he liked to sleep, but there were more interesting things compared to today.
The first step in cultivating immortals is to gather spirits, gather the spiritual energy that wanders around between heaven and earth beside you, and the second step is to inject the spirits into the body, and complete the seven reincarnations in the body, and finally store it in the dantian! And the first realm condensation realm has a total of nine layers, and each layer needs several times more spiritual energy than the original! In this way, we can repeatedly add their respective opportunities to reach the Gongji realm! This is Wu Zheng's original words. And the aura of heaven and earth, except for some blessed land, is the morning when the sun rises is the richest! This is the reason why Bai Xiao got up early.
Put the shiny spirit stones on the bed into the storage bag, push open the wooden door, there was a slight light, sit cross-legged on the stone on the edge of the medicine garden, quietly wait for the dawn to come, and silently recite the cultivation mantra equipped by the sect in the storage bag in his heart. After about a stick of incense, finally there was a slight flush in the sky, and Bai Xiao closed his eyes and kept chattering.
The sun finally came out of the sky, and the first rays of sunlight pierced through the darkness and shone on Bai Xiao's body, slowly covering his whole body! Bai Xiao felt that his whole body was warm, and the world with his eyes closed was also different, originally dark, but now it was slightly bright, colorful, and blurry. Some places are very intense, others are scattered.
Come here, come here, come to me. Bai Xiao felt the aura around him and tried to condense it. Why are there so few? I obviously feel that there are so many, why are there so few around me? I don't care if there is less, less is less! It's better than nothing!
The sun slowly rose, the aura that boiled due to the early sun slowly fell silent, and some herbs in the medicine field swayed with the wind, stretching the body. Bai Xiao was still sitting cross-legged on the stone, his brows furrowed. What's the situation? Why don't you enter my body? Don't go outside! Come in! A few poor auras hovered overhead, but it didn't enter my body.
I don't know how long it took, Bai Xiao felt discomfort in his body, and then he opened his eyes, and his head looked dizzy from concentrating for a long time. But it couldn't hide Bai Xiao's anger! After agitating early in the morning, not even a trace of aura was incorporated into his body. Moving his petite body, looking at the verdant greenery of the medicine garden, he simply gave up continuing his research, walked along the path of the medicine field against the breeze, and greedily breathed the pure air.
The next day, before dawn and sunrise. Bai Xiao sat on the stone again and waited for the arrival of the first sun.
On the third day, the same was true......
On the ninth day, the sky was not yet dawn, and the sun was not rising. The wooden door clicked open, and Bai Xiao walked out with a spring breeze on his face, still sitting cross-legged on the stone. Although there is no trace of spiritual power in the body, life is quite okay these days, and I practice and walk every day to look at the medicine garden. Don't worry about anything, since I ate the Jiushi Pill given by Wu Zheng, even the problem of eating has been solved, it is simply the life of rice worms. Where can I find such a good treatment!
"Senior Sister Bai, what about cultivation?" A figure walked out of the attic, it was Wu Zheng, who had not been seen for many days.
"Yes!" Bai Xiao couldn't help but be a little excited when he saw that he was coming, and he was finally able to answer his question.
"Look, junior sister, you don't have any spiritual power in your body, what's going on?"
"Thank you Senior Brother Wu for your concern! This is exactly what Senior Sister is puzzled about, why can't I incorporate Aura into my body in my daily cultivation?" "Good Senior Brother!
"What qualifications do you have for the entry assessment?" Wu Zheng walked in and looked at Bai Xiao, and suddenly spoke.
"It doesn't even seem to be a second grade. Bai Xiao was indeed embarrassed.
"That's not right! It stands to reason that the minimum standard of the sect is grade B! How can a mortal body be allowed to enter the sect?"
"Haha!Senior Brother Wu, let's leave the rest alone, what should I do now?" Bai Xiao diverted the topic, the means of entering the sect in the first place were really scoundrels.
"You take out the spirit stone and put it around, so that the spiritual energy around it is rich, the spirit stone is used by us as a proof of transaction, but its own function is to quickly replenish spiritual power and cultivation, and it is more luxurious to cultivate with spirit stones. You try it," Wu Zheng thought for a moment and spoke.
Bai Xiao immediately took out some of the spirit stones from the storage bag, put them beside him, crossed his knees, and waited for the arrival of the sunrise. After a while, Bai Xiao felt a dazzling scene in front of him, and his spiritual power wrapped him. The rising sun made the aura even stronger, and Bai Xiao felt that his breath was full of aura. Reciting the mantra silently, suddenly some of the aura floating beside him quickly condensed on the top of his head, and as more and more, some aura surged into his head, and the aura entered from the head, slowly following the way Bai Xiao thought in the meridians, more and more, the aura continued to enter the head, running in the body, one circle, two circles, and slowly in the meridians The aura became less and less, condensed together, and became a brand-new object! When the spiritual power entered the dantian after the seventh circle, it quickly condensed into a tiny dot like dust. And with a faint attraction, even if you don't cultivate, there will be aura inhaled, although there is little pitiful. Bai Xiao seemed to be cultivating tirelessly like this.
Wu Zheng grabbed his beard, knowing that Bai Xiao had entered a deep level of cultivation, there was no one around, and there was no need to worry about disturbing the medicine garden, so he walked towards the medicine garden, after all, he needed someone to take care of it. He didn't expect Bai Xiao.
The sun had begun to sink in the west, and Bai Xiao opened his eyes at this time, feeling the small point in the dantian, he couldn't help but wonder, fortunately after so many days, it finally had some results. I feel that my whole body is full of strength, my skin seems to be more delicate, my hair seems to be a little darker, and I can see things in front of me more clearly.
"It's really a magical power!" sighed sincerely, Bai Xiao didn't believe in any supernatural power on the earth, but now he was really in his hands! Looking at the surrounding spirit stones, it was much darker, obviously it had just been consumed.
"Wake up, how do you feel?" Wu Zheng approached and asked when he saw it, and casually threw Bai Xiao a cyan fruit, and he also held one in his hand.
"I can already feel the spiritual power in the dantian, but I don't know when I will be able to reach the first level of condensation. Bai Xiao said truthfully, taking the cyan fruit and looking at it.
"Cultivation is not in a hurry, laying a good foundation is the key. ”
"This is the green spirit fruit, don't look at me, this is the spirit seed I bought myself, and I sowed it with my own hands. It is not a medicinal material that belongs to Elder Yi's alchemy, this fruit is no longer of much use to me, but for the cultivation of the first and second layers of condensing qi, the effect is good!" Wu Zheng said vaguely as he ate the green spirit fruit.
Bai Xiao took a bite in disbelief, and suddenly felt that his mouth was full of fragrance, and the speed of spiritual power in his body couldn't help but speed up a lot, good thing!
"Anything else?"
"Senior sister, can you finish eating and ask?"
"You disappear for an unknown amount of time, and then I'll pick it myself. Bai Xiao blinked and said as he ate.
"Hey, behind the attic, near the barrier. ”
"I almost forgot, tomorrow the sect will hold a meeting of new disciples, you should prepare for it. ”
"What kind of conference, is it trouble?" If it's troublesome, it's better to take a walk in this medicine garden.
"Hehe! Actually, it's just for everyone to get to know each other and communicate more. After all, he is a disciple of the sect, and he always has to meet the sect master!" Wu Zheng said depressedly, this junior sister, although she is small, she does not dare to compliment her character.
"Okay!"
