Chapter 127: It's time to build up spirituality
Learning horse riding is much easier, as there isn't so many complicated exam processes involved.
Xiao Jie came to the horse farm outside the town, found a riding instructor, paid ten taels of silver, and in a flash he successfully learned riding skills.
[System prompt: You have learned the skill [Basic Riding], you can buy and use most regular mounts. Because your riding level is too low, the maximum movement speed of the mount is reduced by 30% when you ride.]
The level of riding skills in this game has little impact on the choice of mounts. Except for some rare and high-level mounts, most mounts only require basic riding skills to ride.
It will just reduce the movement speed while riding. The lower the riding skills, the higher the speed penalty, and the higher the riding skills, the lower the penalty. If you can reach the master riding level - the realm of unity between man and horse, you will not be subject to speed penalty.
"My dear, now that you have learned horse riding, do you want to buy a horse?"
The riding coach started to promote the product with all his might.
Xiao Jie took a look at the list and decisively refused. The cheapest packhorse cost 20 taels of silver, and the best "strong warhorse" cost 120 taels of silver.
We have free ones, why waste the money.
"Carrot, come here." With a call, the pet behind him came running over happily. I just spent money to buy some secret wild vegetable dumplings and fed it. It was no longer shy.
When Xiao Jie moved the mouse to Luobo, a "ride" sign immediately appeared. He clicked it and saw his character climbing onto the horse.
Haha, now we have a horse too.
"Brother Feng, I bought a horse."
Just look at me, the immortal, riding towards you on a black horse.
"Is it a war horse?"
"No, a war horse is too expensive, it costs 100 taels. This is a travel horse, it only costs 40 taels."
A travel horse is okay, it's better than a pack horse.
"Let's go for a run." The two men rode their horses at full speed and galloped around the horse farm.
Due to their low riding skills and average quality of horses, neither of them ran very fast, but it was much faster than walking. Xiao Jie estimated that their running speed was at least 50% faster than that of the players. Xiao Jie's horse was better, and could increase the speed by almost 60%.
Moreover, players need to consume physical strength to run, and they may not be able to run any longer. The physical strength bar of a horse is much higher, and it can sprint a long distance at one time.
Haha, that’s great. Now I don’t have to worry about traveling long distances anymore.
After a round, both of them were familiar with the operation of the mounts. Generally speaking, it was similar to the riding system of Mount & Blade. It required some skills, but it was not difficult to get started.
When we got back to the town gate, we both dismounted, and my horse, which was about to become an immortal, suddenly disappeared.
Xiao Jie's horse was still standing there, snorting.
This is the difference between a pet part-time mount and a real mount. What I bought for Yu Chengxian was actually a horse whistle, just like Ye Luo's donkey whistle. The mount will be summoned when you blow it, and the mount will disappear on the spot when you dismount. It is very convenient.
Of course, even if the mount summoned by Ma Shao dies, it is really dead. In this respect, the game is very fair.
But Xiao Jie's carrot doesn't have this function.
Strictly speaking, Carrot is not a [mount], but just a [pet] with the ability to carry. Although they both look like horses, they are completely different things in the system's judgment.
There is no way to trade it like mounts.
Unless the opponent also has the skill of taming animals, once the horse is disbanded, it will directly become a wild monster and can only be killed, dug out the meat and skinned.
Xiao Jie also felt a little regretful. The game still did not have enough freedom. It would be great if the horse could be caught and traded. He could make money just by catching the horse and selling it. However, considering that there are so many animal trainers in the game, if there really was such a loophole, it would have been wiped out long ago.
"That's it for today. Let's find a place to level up tomorrow."
"Don't you want to hand in the magic talisman first?"
Xiao Jie explained: "You can hand it in now, but you have to think clearly, this magic talisman can only be handed in once, and this opportunity only comes once.
If you can stack up your spirituality a little higher, maybe you can take the opportunity to become my disciple when you hand in the magic talisman. This game has such a high degree of freedom, so there is naturally room for manipulation.
But if your spirituality is too low, what if the Taoist priest who collects the magic talismans gives you a random reward and sends you away? You might miss the opportunity. "
I want to become an immortal. I think so too.
"Then how much spirituality do you think is appropriate, Brother Feng?"
"The higher the better, but I think it should be at least 19 points. Of course, it depends on your choice. After all, I am not absolutely sure. The magic talisman is yours. If you want to go earlier, I can go with you. If you want to stack more, we can wait until level to go."
The reason for this judgment is that when Ye Luo changed her job to a Night Walker, she added 20 points to her perception. Her initial perception should not be low, at least 10 points. In this way, 30 points of spirituality should be a more reliable number.
And generally speaking, when learning combat skills, the attribute point requirements are integers such as 15/20/30. 30 is more reliable, and of course 20 might also be OK, but for this kind of thing, either don't do it at all, or do it to the extreme. If you want to be safe, 40 or even 50 is not impossible.
But attribute points are precious after all, and Xiao Jie is not completely sure. What if he stacks up 50 spiritual points but still cannot spawn a magic profession? That would be a huge loss, and the entire account would be ruined.
So the real choice depends on personal opinion, he can't bear this kind of responsibility. I want to become an immortal pondered for a while, "Brother Feng, I think 30 points is just right, OK, let's level up tomorrow, by the way, Brother Feng, how about you? Do you also want to stack spirituality?"
"of course."
Xiao Jie also thought a lot about this. His faith was only 7 points, and stacking faith would cost him 1 level of attribute. Perception seemed to be a ghost curse spell, which he was not very interested in. The rest of the immortal spells, Taoist spells, and demon spells all required stacking spirituality, so he would have to stack spirituality sooner or later, unless he did not intend to follow the magic route.
But when there is a chance to become an immortal, how could Xiao Jie stop at being a martial arts master? He must give it a try.
Therefore, it is naturally better to accumulate spirituality as early as possible. The earlier you have high spirituality, the more chances you will have to trigger the adventure of learning spells.
I didn't increase my spirituality before in order to be safe. After all, it is too dangerous to have no professional ability. Now that I have learned martial arts, internal strength, and light skills, as well as the art of animal taming, I have the ability to protect myself. The next step is naturally to start accumulating spirituality.
He now has 5 free attribute points, and if he levels up three more times, he can raise his spirituality to over 30.
"Let's train together to level 13, and then hand in the magic talisman. If we're lucky, maybe we can all get started together." Xiao Jie said optimistically.
In fact, the chance of getting started together is not great. After all, this magic talisman can only be handed in by one person, but you have to give it a try. After all, there is no loss if you fail.
What if I get taken in with me?
"Okay! Then let's start leveling again tomorrow, and then we can learn spells together!" I agreed excitedly. We both learned various martial arts and had mounts, so we were not afraid to go out to level up.
After the discussion, Xiao Jie said goodbye to Wo Yu Cheng Xian, found an inn, booked a room and went offline.
Exit the game. Xiao Jie's excitement did not subside, but became even more excited.
The power in the game is fake, and the power in reality is real.
No matter how strong he is in the game, there is still a screen between them. Only when he masters it in reality can he truly feel the charm of the game.
Magic is still a bit too far away, but internal strength is already at hand.
He couldn't wait to start circulating his internal energy.
(No, this kind of mentality is not suitable for practicing. Calm down. Calm down.)
Xiao Jie tried hard not to be affected by the ecstasy and excitement in his heart.
He first drank a glass of iced cider to calm down and calm his mood.
Then draw the curtains, close the doors and windows, turn off the cell phone and computer, and make sure there is no noise and you will not be disturbed.
Then he returned to the bedroom and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Jie closed his eyes and began to feel the changes in his body, internal force - where is the internal force?
That’s right, right at the dantian, a force of energy is accumulating and circulating there.
As Xiao Jie's mind moved, the energy began to flow, as if looking for a breakthrough.
Xiao Jie tried hard to sense the rhythm in it, and sensed his own meridians and blood vessels through the method of introspection.
Found it, the Ren Meridian - the Three Yang Meridians of the Foot...
Xiao Jie suddenly activated his internal energy, and in an instant, a warm current began to flow through his meridians.
As expected, there is internal force! Xiao Jie carefully pushed this warm current, feeling the meridians being stimulated by the flowing internal force. Every cell became active and fed more internal force back into this energy flow.
This is the true extraordinary power. No matter how high the agility, how strong the strength, or how good the physique is, it is still not beyond the scope of normal people.
However, at this moment, this trace of weak internal force in his dantian truly made Xiao Jie realize that he had become a being beyond ordinary people.
The internal force circulated for a cycle and returned to the Dantian Qi Sea. Xiao Jie could feel that the internal force in his Dantian had a slight improvement.
So that's how it is. Is this how the internal force becomes stronger the more you practice? Dantian is the place where the internal force is stored and generated, but every meridian, every acupuncture point, and every cell in the human body can generate internal force, but it is very small. You need to use internal force to circulate and stimulate the meridians continuously, and then transport the generated internal force into Dantian, so as to continuously maintain the total amount of internal force.
Dantian is like human muscles. It can slowly expand through continuous accumulation and strengthening. However, if too much internal force is input at one time, there is a danger of Dantian breaking...
Xiao Jie slowly opened his eyes and stretched his body. He felt a tingling sensation in his meridians and acupuncture points. Xiao Jie knew that this should be the feeling produced after the meridians were expanded by internal force, just like the soreness of muscles after exercise, which was not a bad thing.
In this way, you can gradually increase the time and intensity of practicing every day, and you can develop strong internal strength in the morning and evening.
Just imagine that in the future when your internal strength is fully developed, you will be able to fly into the sky and hide in the ground, walk on the snow without leaving any trace, leap onto a building with a somersault, and roam the world with a sword. Just thinking about it is exciting.
Of course, I have to play a game with Liu Qiang to see who will live or die...
You can practice internal skills in your room by yourself, but swordsmanship and light skills are not suitable for this.
Why not go up to Tiger Hill to practice before it gets dark?
