Chapter 34: 'Collecting' and 'Refining'

Just like the impression I had when I first met him, Chi Jiuyu is a person who can't sit still.

Not long after entering the villa, she chose her own room and began to tidy up and clean. Because she was often thrown into the starry sky battlefield for training by her master, she had many daily necessities in her storage ring.

He spread the bed sheets, took out the quilt and pillow, then fell onto the bed, turned over, and lay on his back with his legs spread out.

Taking out her cell phone, she logged onto the spiritual network and began searching.

'How to recover accidentally deleted chat history'

Soon, many answers popped up, and Chi Jiuyu grinned.

Although my uncle-master has reached a very high level, he has just come out of retreat after all, so how could he be very familiar with the spiritual network?

The master specifically instructed her to delete the chat records, how could she not be curious!
It's impossible not to watch it. Even if I get punished when I go back, that will be my future self. What does it have to do with me now?

Xu Xing knew nothing about this. Although his senior sister's disciple was interesting, it was impossible for him to pay attention to her all the time.

At this moment, he was sitting in the study with a laptop in front of him, inserting the crystal card containing the "Basic Mining and Refining Method" into the card slot on the side.

[Loading, please wait...]

The crystal card emitted an extremely subtle spiritual energy fluctuation, which quickly spread outwards.

"Anti-theft system?"

Xu Xing raised his hand slightly and suppressed the subtle fluctuation of spiritual energy.

This was within his expectations; mining and refining methods were not suitable for large-scale dissemination.

The vast majority of Qigong practitioners do not have the foundation to reach the threshold of the natural Dao foundation, and they cannot even pass the first level. If they force the starlight into their bodies, they will be injured at best, and their cultivation will be completely destroyed at worst. Some of the weak will even die in pain.

After suppressing the spiritual energy fluctuations, words began to appear on the computer screen.

Basic Mining Method

Hundreds of words in total, the beginning was no different from the mining and refining method that Xu Xing remembered, which was to sit facing the moon at midnight, and then mobilize three-tenths of spiritual power to form the "Fishing Star" seal.

The 'Fishing Star' seal is not complicated. Most practitioners can succeed after trying two or three times. The only thing to pay attention to is the peaceful output of spiritual power.

After attracting the starlight, the key is how to "collect" it into the body.

Starlight is invisible and intangible, and only the power of the soul can capture it, but this is no different from a mortal grasping thorns with bare hands.

Broken skin and flesh would cause pain, let alone the fragile soul of a Qigong practitioner?

So many people cannot persist at this step.

After "collecting" the starlight into the body, it must be "refined" and refined into spiritual power, so that the spiritual power will have a trace of true essence, in preparation for carrying the moonlight and sun essence later.

But the starlight is extremely sharp, and the pain it brings when passing through the meridians is comparable to being cut into pieces by a thousand knives.

For those who do not have a strong foundation, even if they force themselves to draw starlight into their dantian, they will still over-refine due to their weak spiritual power foundation.

When this happens, the spiritual power will take on a tinge of starlight, becoming extremely sharp, and its quality will even exceed the true essence used to build the foundation of external objects.

However, every time you mobilize your spiritual power, you will experience a process of "refining", and no one can withstand the pain.

The "Basic Mining and Refining Method" created by Sheng Huangyuan adds an extra step in the "refining" process.

Practitioners need to condense a spirit seal in their Dantian in advance. After introducing the starlight into the Dantian, they do not rush to refine it. Instead, they store it in the spirit seal and release it bit by bit, slowly dissipating it. Although it is a little slower, the pain is much lighter than other refining methods.

It's a kind of tricky way, but can you really build a natural foundation in this way?

The probability is not high.

This method cannot be used for the essence of the sun and the moon.

So there is one last message from him.

[Although this method reduces pain during the starlight refining stage, it cannot be used in the later stages. If you feel you can’t bear it in the first stage, you can just give up and expel the spirit seal and the starlight from your body.]

Although expelling the spirit seal from the body will cause a certain loss of cultivation, it is better than refining it thoroughly or being unable to bear it in the later stages.

The spiritual seal formed by spiritual power cannot bear the next two stages, and the intervention of higher-level power will in turn pollute the foundation of the practitioner.

This is why it is difficult to build a natural foundation, and it really depends on the practitioner himself.

“It also gives more people the opportunity to try.”

Xu Xing pulled out the crystal card and crushed it into ashes with a wisp of magic power.

…………Xuanjian Central Hospital.

Xiao Fan exchanged the reward for second place in today's battle test into spirit coins and paid the full fee for the surgery.

Looking at his parents hugging each other and crying with joy, and his elder brother being taken away by the Yuanying doctor, he felt empty inside.

In a daze, he stood up and walked out.

The mother behind him saw this scene and was about to say something, but was stopped by the father beside him and shook her head.

Xiao Fan walked out of the hospital.

When he came to a flower bed where bright yellow flowers were in full bloom, he suddenly felt weak all over and slowly sat down beside the flower bed.

Looking at the ground, his eyes were a little confused.

Yes, my eldest brother has excellent physique and talent. He joined the Dragon Elephant Qingtian Sect before the college entrance examination three years ago.

Moreover, she was usually very nice to him and would send him some precious cultivation resources from time to time. It was because of this that she was able to reach the ninth level of Qi training in her senior year of high school.

"Xiao Fan, you should practice hard in school. I have inquired about it. There is a Dragon Elephant Pill on the battle merit list this time. I will help you get one back when the time comes!"

really good.

He has always admired his elder brother and dreamed of joining the Dragon Elephant Qingtian Sect like his elder brother one day.

However, the starry sky battlefield is not an amusement park, it is an extremely dangerous battlefield and anyone may die there.

When he saw his elder brother lying unconscious on the hospital bed, he was completely stunned.

The Longxiang Qingtian Sect provided some help, and my parents also borrowed all they could, but it was still a little short.

So Xiao Fan thought about the fighting test that would come soon.

Without telling his parents, he secretly took money from home and bought a bottle of barrier-breaking spiritual liquid.

I replayed the events in my mind. I had done all of this voluntarily, but... why was I still so sad?

Tears flowed uncontrollably.

He understood that his life... was over.

"Young man, you look very sad."

A pair of shiny leather shoes appeared in his sight. Xiao Fan wiped his tears and raised his head.

The person in front of him was wearing casual clothes that did not match the pair of leather shoes at all. He had an ordinary appearance and a gentle temperament.

And there's also a weird feeling that the first time you see him, you get the feeling that 'this guy is a good guy, I have to bully him.'

"Wipe it." He handed over a tissue.

"...Thank you." Xiao Fan took the tissue, "Are you here because of my elder brother?"

I am already a useless person.

"Your eldest brother?" The man shook his head slightly, "No, I'm not interested in him."

Like a magic trick, a jade box appeared in the man's hand.

"An ancient rare treasure. Taking it can change your destiny and bring you great fortune. Are you interested in learning more about it?"

"..."

Turns out he's a salesman. I'm so miserable, can't you see that?
But Xiao Fan didn't have the strength to drive him away.

"I don't have money and can't afford it."

"During the event, you can try it for free. Don't miss this opportunity."

The man stuffed the jade box into his hands and then turned and left.

Ok?
Just leave like that?
Xiao Fan stared at the jade box in his hand for a while, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose not to throw it away.

On the rooftop of the hospital, the man watched Xiao Fan put away the jade box and nodded. Then he looked up somewhere, as if he was talking to someone.

"Brother Dao, I wonder how much progress you have made this time?"
