Chapter 64 Popular Science Post
-------
In this world, you should not enter the mountains lightly, as there are many powerful creatures living in them.
In the vast territory of Xuan State, settlements are distributed on the flat land beside rivers and lakes, and are generally separated from the mountains by a buffer zone.
For example, in mountainous areas where large rivers pass through, it is impossible for them to have cities in that area.
Mountains are special beings that draw strength from the vast earth. Their veins can cover long distances underground, just like the roots of plants.
The existence of mountains can maintain more abundant vitality than plains. The higher the place, the richer the vitality. The vitality covers down from the top of the mountain like a volcanic eruption. The higher the place, the more benefits can be enjoyed.
This unique three-dimensional ecological environment results in a higher density of life than on flat land.
Fortunately, creatures in the mountains rarely come out, because the vitality of heaven and earth at the foot of the mountain is thin for them, and they will feel uncomfortable as if they are lacking oxygen if they go down the mountain.
Although they are not unable to adapt, they generally will not feel uncomfortable for no reason. Only a few mountain creatures will leave occasionally, but they will not come out in droves.
Relatively speaking, it is the human race who often goes mountain climbing to search for treasures, and they seem to be the harassers.
It must be very interesting that the school's freshman campus is in a place like this.
He quickly entered the school forum and looked through the previous posts.
"【New Students Must Read】Black Dragon Mountain Range, Longshou Mountain Campus, the distribution of demons in the ten major training areas (latest)?"
As expected, a school opened in such a place must be for training students.
Xu Zhuo quickly clicked in.
Then it prompts that the post requires payment to view.
The amount charged is:
5 Essence Pills?
The price of your guide is not cheap.
Xu Zhuo scrolled through the posts and found that some paid posts used Essence Pills as the currency. So, does that mean that Essence Pills are the basic currency in school?
Fortunately, Essence Pills can be purchased with money, so Xu Zhuo paid the fee and checked the content of the post.
The ten major training sites are all on the north side of the campus, at higher altitudes. In each site, there are several types of demon tribes, and their strength increases as you go up the altitude.
"The first training ground recommends entering after reaching the fifth stage of Qigong?"
This is still the minimum requirement.
Fortunately, after paying the money, this post was written in quite detail, explaining why it is recommended to enter after reaching the fifth stage of Qigong.
Because of the fourth stage of Qigong's channel opening, one can circulate vital energy outside the body, and has mastered both long-range and short-range means.
The fifth stage of Qigong can open up the internal organs, exercise the five internal organs, strengthen the body's activity, greatly increase the resistance to various poisonous substances, and exercise the five internal organs to expel toxins, which is something that the fourth stage of Qigong cannot do.
There are too many poisonous things in the training ground.
The fangs, claws, and skin of animals may be poisonous. The thorns, sap, pollen, fruits, etc. of plants may also contain toxins. Even miasma and mineral powders can be poisonous when blown by the wind.
If you don't have resistance to toxins, you absolutely cannot go to these places to gain experience.
"So that's it."
The post also clearly states what you can gain from each training site, and it is written in great detail.
The valuable body parts of various monsters, where various plants should be collected, whether roots and stems or fruits and flowers are valuable, how to distinguish minerals, all of these are clearly written, with pictures and texts, and even videos.
Because this involves money, those monster parts, plant fruits, and mineral materials can all be taken back and exchanged for money.
Xu Zhuo focused on memorizing this, and felt that the training ground was very suitable for him to perform.
He continued surfing the Internet and came across another post.
"'An Outline of the High, Middle and Low Levels of Qigong and the Materials that Aid Practice', take a look at this."
This was a free post from more than ten years ago, with a high number of views and replies, so he clicked on it.
Basic Qigong is not of high grade and is only used for physical training.
Lower-grade Qigong, which is created by cultivators in the inner Qi realm, often only involves the basic cultivation of Yuan Qi. When cultivated to the ninth level, it can be transformed into True Qi. Generally, lower-grade Qigong is created by cultivators at the ninth level of inner Qi, because their experience and insights are sufficient at this time.
To practice lower-grade Qigong, the auxiliary items are various resources for strengthening the body and replenishing vital energy, a lot of which are listed in the post.
Middle-grade Qigong is a Qigong created by cultivators in the External Qi Realm. In the External Qi Realm, the external alien Qi is incorporated into the True Qi.
Different from the most basic vital energy of heaven and earth and the basic vital energy synthesized from life force and soul force, it is called alien vital energy. Alien vital energy often possesses certain natural attributes, such as water, fire, wind, thunder, ice, etc.
Alien vital energy cannot be absorbed at will, and without corresponding qigong exercises, it is like poison.
For those who practice middle-grade qigong, even if they have not reached the outer qi realm, their qigong can possess the properties and effects of a different kind of vital energy, which is stronger than that of low-grade qigong.
However, the Inner Qi Realm can only refine one kind of alien Qi at most. If multiple kinds of alien Qi coexist, there will be a conflict between the Qi and an explosion.
After reaching the external Qi realm, one can absorb various different kinds of Qi, such as water, fire, wind, and thunder, and gather them into one body without worrying about the conflict of Qi.
The resources to assist practice are various kinds of vital energy that correspond to the practitioner's qigong attributes. Before reaching the external qi realm, qigong can basically only have one attribute.
The complete middle-grade Qigong is naturally the Qigong that has the method of combining different kinds of Qi, which are the best combination schemes explored by predecessors through experiments.
"The middle-grade Qigong is a combination of different kinds of Qi?"
Xu Zhuo thought of the Great Five Elements Technique, which is a combination of five kinds of vital energy.
Okay, it’s stable now. He won’t have to worry about the external Qi realm anymore.
Xu Zhuo looked at the examples given in the post regarding auxiliary items for practicing middle-level qigong, and found that most of them are things that ordinary people cannot touch.
To collect ice-attributed alien energy, one must often go to the deep, extremely cold places of ice and snow. To collect fire-attributed alien energy, one can look for it in magma. To collect thunder-attributed alien energy, one can wait for heavenly thunder. To collect water-attributed alien energy, one has to dive into rivers or even oceans.
Wood attribute... You have to be able to defeat those monsters.
Not all plants in this world are vegetarians.
They wouldn't feel the slightest bit sorry if you ate one raw.
The Water Yuan Dan that Xu Zhuo saw in the mall last time, which cost RMB 150,000, was a pill that was tainted with a trace of water-attributed vitality. Just a trace made it half as expensive as an ordinary Essence Yuan Dan.
The price of a portion of alien energy that is sufficient for a cultivator in the Outer Qi Realm is often starting at tens of millions. The unit is the Essence Yuan Pill, and one Essence Yuan Pill costs one hundred thousand.
hiss--
Is it that expensive?
Top-grade Qigong, a Qigong created by monks in the Soul-Snatching Realm.
Seize the spiritual realm, seize the fortune of the spiritual things in heaven and earth.
"Gone?"
Just one sentence for the introduction?
There are natural spiritual creatures between heaven and earth. When they exist in the world, they can continuously transform the vital energy of heaven and earth into different kinds of vital energy, affecting the environment within hundreds of miles. For example, a spiritual creature with fire attribute will cause the climate within hundreds of miles to be abnormally hot and dry.
This is the best resource to assist in the cultivation of the Soul-Snatching Realm. If you want to find it, you need to pay attention to where there are abnormalities.
However, the places that humans have been to have been explored almost completely, so if you want to find natural spiritual objects, you must look for them in places where few people have been.
And you have to be careful, because natural spirits have independent consciousness and cannot be subdued without a fight.
Xu Zhuo didn't see anyone discussing the price of natural spiritual objects in the post. He thought it couldn't be measured with ordinary money. After all, it was the third great realm of the Qigong system.
……
The post is a popular science post, which is very suitable for a novice in the spiritual practice like Xu Zhuo. It gives him a preliminary understanding of the classification of qigong and various treasures.
But there are also king-level, emperor-level, and saint-level Qigong, which are topics that will never be mentioned in the entire Xuanguo cultivation network section. People only know the names, which arouses their imagination.
Xu Zhuo spent most of the day surfing the Internet and absorbing information.
【Xu Zhuo: "I'm back."】
【Luo Feng: "Group leader, what are the college entrance examination results?"】
[Xu Zhuo: "Of course there is no problem. I chose one of the eight universities closest to home."]
[Xu Zhuo: "I simply can't afford the high-level resources here. The more useful ones here are the alien energy and the spiritual objects of heaven and earth. The spiritual objects of heaven and earth can continuously transform the ordinary energy..."]
He told the group what he had seen.
