Chapter 51 I Want to Become an Immortal
Chapter 51 I Want to Become an Immortal (Twenty)
On the second day, Liu Sheng and She Chan explored the second floor as well and finally found the notebook written by the unknown senior that Zhang Tinglin mentioned.
This letter looked very old, as if it had been rubbed a lot. The edges were frayed and the paper was so brittle that it seemed like it would break if force was applied.
Clearly, this strange disaster started not long ago, so how could someone have written this notebook based on it, and the book has become so old.
They all had this doubt in their hearts.
However, after flipping through it, he found that the notebook was of little use to him.
This senior wrote in detail about how to survive on meat ganoderma in the early stage, and what the rules of the ghosts in each area of the Qixuan Academy were. Then, by offering fresh meat to the lecturer's tablet in the Jingshi Hall in the Chongdao Temple, he obtained a trick to pass the exam for promotion. Finally, he obtained the skills to become a student of the upper house, and entered the Chongdao Temple to practice. He also talked a little about the layout of the Chongdao Temple. After that, this person did not continue to write.
In this way, there was no need for She Chan to come to the library again. She was driven back to Chongdao Temple by Liu Sheng to practice sword skills and body skills, so as to escape the disaster alive.
Liu Sheng continued to come to the library every day to select three books and learn about the knowledge of this world.
……
Through these days of study, she has indeed discovered that the cultivation civilization of this world is quite different from her world. Although both are centered around spiritual energy, the concepts are very different.
In her world, the source of spiritual energy is the reward from the Supreme God, and one must go through the Supreme God to obtain a unique path of cultivation. For this reason, the art of divine meditation is taught in the school, and this is also the only public technique. Even Liu Sheng is not very clear about the specific practice.
As for how to use spiritual energy, it is mainly through spiritual tools, talismans, formations, and even strange objects.
Although strange creatures are dangerous, their natural effectiveness and power are not comparable to ordinary spiritual weapons.
Liu Sheng knew that many of the strange creatures housed in the Weaving Institute could be used by qualified practitioners once their danger level and methods of use were determined.
Of course, if it is too dangerous, some of the abilities will be sealed and given to people to use.
As for those monsters that are extremely dangerous or above, they will naturally not be used casually.
For example, in the Pear Blossom Lantern Festival, the bizarre-shaped magical instruments used by the monks of the Weaving General Administration were actually strange creatures that had been contained and purified.
In this world, spiritual energy already exists between heaven and earth. One only needs to use specific methods of absorption and transfer to draw the energy into the body, use the spiritual energy to change the physique, and slowly improve the realm.
By changing the key acupuncture points and meridian paths for drawing qi into the body, or even the medium for cultivation, such as ice, fire, blood, sword energy, stars, etc., different effects of the use of spiritual energy and magic power can be created, thus producing countless exercises and techniques.
Secondly, the methods of utilizing spiritual energy in this world are more rough and direct, with a variety of means such as elixirs, talismans, spells, formations, and magic weapons. Although a mature and unified theoretical system has not been formed, its diversity and freedom have broadened Liu Sheng's horizons.
In Liu Sheng's world, although these things also exist, the types are not so many. Secondly, the energy levels are not as wide as those in this world - the powerful ones can even shake mountains and rivers and pull the stars.
Moreover, since the "Honghu Shengshi", with the whole country's efforts to sort out and study, it has been basically standardized and convenient for the people. Even ordinary people can use it to a certain extent. Unlike here, there is still a distinction between immortals and mortals.
Of course, one reason is probably that this world is vast. There are five known continents in the entire world of immortal cultivation, separated by vast oceans. There are many small countries on the continents, and there are many immortal sects above the small countries, making it difficult to unify.
Another reason is that Liu Sheng knows from reading history books that the immortal cultivation civilization in this world can be traced back to tens of millions of years ago. The technologies and theories produced therein are so vast that it is almost impossible to organize them. All that can be done is for each school to manage its own and form its own practice system to continue.
……
Such ordinary days of cultivation and study made Liu Sheng feel as if he had returned to the time when he was studying in the academy.
Apart from the occasional screams of fear and the roars of strange creatures coming from the school, there were also corpses on the roadside and a group of people surrounding the corpses with murderous eyes and scrambling to pick the meat ganoderma. All these things reminded her that she was still in the dark and strange disaster.
"Why is it that after so long, some people still don't learn their lesson?"
She Chan looked at a figure half-fallen outside the door of the library, holding an extinguished candle in one hand and three or four books in the other, crawling out desperately.
But only half of his body was left. He screamed and was dragged back into the darkness deep inside the library.
"Greed and luck are always human nature." Liu Sheng shook his head.
After so much time, the rules of this library should have been spread, so why do people always fall into the trap?
Although more than two people cannot walk outside, communication is hindered.
But if they made an appointment with each other like she and She Chan, or took the entrance exam, there would always be a chance to exchange information.
Liu Sheng couldn't help but feel doubtful.
"How long have you been waiting here? Is there something urgent?"
As soon as Liu Sheng finished reading, he saw She Chan when he went out. He didn't know what the urgent matter was and he didn't want to wait until he returned to Chongdao Temple to talk about it.
Then Liu Sheng thought of it.
"Have you mastered it? Are you going to take the test?"
"Su Jin, you are so smart!"
She Chan walked a few steps outside with Liu Sheng and said, "I have mastered the first level of both the White Rainbow Sword Art and the Flowing Water Footwork. My cultivation is also approaching the second level of the Qi Refining Stage. I thought I might as well give it a try."
If it were the previous Liu Sheng, he would definitely be very happy about She Chan's breakthrough, and would also be very happy that she was finally taking this step, instead of muttering silly words about wanting to accompany Liu Sheng.
But now Liu Sheng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Besides, if I don't go, I might be killed by the old lady in Chongdao Temple." She Chan said in a low voice.
Liu Sheng looked at She Chan in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Seeing Liu Sheng's serious look, She Chan chuckled and said, "I'm not really going to kill her, but every time she sees me, she always scolds me, saying that I've already reached the Qi Refining Stage, why haven't I taken the exam for the promotion to the dormitories yet? If others had made a breakthrough, they would have gone long ago."
At this time, the manager of the library came out of the building again, carrying that scary broom and a large bucket of red and yellow stuff, muttering, "I have to make candles again... There are not enough... It's all because of that female disciple who comes every day..."
Suddenly, the old man paused, as if he sensed something.
Then, he raised his head with two "clicks" and great effort. The big bloody hole on his face was fixed on the direction of Liu Sheng, as if he was trying to identify whether this was the hateful woman.
The blood hole "stared" at Liu Sheng for a while, then "clicked" a few times and turned to She Chan, and suddenly said viciously: "You are already in the Qi Refining stage, why don't you go to the upgrading house examination? You are already in the Qi Refining stage, why don't you go to the upgrading house examination? You are already in the Qi Refining stage, why don't you go to the upgrading house examination?"
She Chan was so frightened that he took a few steps back, trying his best to control the urge to draw his sword.
But the old man seemed to have a breakdown and kept repeating the same sentence over and over again.
She Chan didn't dare to reply, fearing that something would be triggered. At least for now, the old man didn't seem to have any intention of attacking her.
Liu Sheng tugged at She Chan's sleeve and shook his head.
Then he took She Chan straight into the pine and cypress forest, and the old man behind him was still repeating those words.
So in this world, one must take the exam to advance to the next level during the Qi Refining Stage?
So impatient?
