Asking about longevity

Mo Hua went home and told his parents that he was about to break through the fourth level of Qi refining and was going to practice Kung Fu. ♦♜

Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua were quite happy. At Mo Hua's age, he could become a monk at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and he was considered a leader among his peers in Tongxian City.

As for the martial arts, Mo Shan told Mo Hua not to worry:

"Your mother and I have discussed it a long time ago. If we can't learn the skills of Tongxian Sect, we can only find some experienced casual cultivators to teach them. There is a senior named Han among the demon hunters in Tongxian City, who is from Xiaowu Xing The spirit root is also of medium quality. I will treat Senior Han to a drink in a few days and ask him to help me with this. Senior Han is a warm-hearted person and should be willing to help. Then we can give some spiritual stones as a reward. It’s just... …”

Mo Shan paused for a moment and then said: "It's just that Senior Han was also a casual cultivator. He himself often said that although his technique was passed down from his family and was quite perfect, it was not a good inheritance. After practicing, he , I’m afraid there is no prospect…”

Mo Shan hoped to give Mo Hua the best, but that was all he could give, and his face was somewhat disappointed.

Instead, Mo Hua comforted him and said: "Dad, I want to be an formation master in the future. As long as the formation master has sufficient spiritual consciousness, there is not much emphasis on the skills. As long as he can practice peacefully. This skill has also been passed down from generation to generation by Senior Han. If it comes down, it means that the practice is stable and there will be no mistakes. This is better than anything else."

Only then did Mo Shan look more relieved. Liu Ruhua also touched Mo Hua's head and said warmly:

"Let's eat. Take a rest early after eating. We will learn formations from Mr. Zhuang tomorrow."

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded obediently.

Bai Zisheng said that he wanted to help Mo Hua find some skills. Mo Hua didn't tell his parents because the bigger the clan, the stricter the inheritance within the clan and they would not pass things on at will. ♦✎

Moreover, he does not want to accept Bai Zisheng's favor because he has no merit and no reward. The key is that he cannot afford to repay this favor now.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Bai Zisheng actually took a few jade slips and handed them to Mo Hua like a thief.

"I took this out secretly when Aunt Xue wasn't paying attention. You can see for yourself if there is anything suitable. If there is anything suitable, choose one and keep it. I will return the rest."

Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.

Bai Zisheng became proud, "How's it going? Are you very touched?"

Bai Zisheng looked a little arrogant, but he was also enthusiastic towards others.

Mo Hua said: "If you secretly take out the exercises, won't you be punished?"

Bai Zisheng snorted, "I'm a direct descendant of the Bai family. Not to mention a few middle- and low-grade skills, they are innate treasures passed down from our ancestors. If you take them, they won't dare to do anything to me."

Mo Hua's eyes were full of disbelief.

Bai Zisheng was unconvinced, "How can I still lie to you?"

"It's just a year or two of confinement, it's nothing."

Bai Zixi's tone was calm, but there was a slight smile in her eyes.

Bai Zisheng's face turned a little red.

Mo Hua thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't take these skills, and I can't hurt you."

Bai Zisheng said displeasedly: "I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

Bai Zixi also said softly: "Although these skills are valuable, they are not too rare for the Bai family. Just practice them and nothing will happen to you, otherwise Aunt Xue will not let my brother take them out."

"That's right!" Bai Zisheng nodded quickly and suddenly said "ah" again, "How did Aunt Xue know that I took out the technique?"

Bai Zixi glanced at him lightly, "There's nothing you do that Aunt Xue doesn't see. It's just you who thinks others don't know. []"

Bai Zisheng slumped his shoulders, his ambition somewhat frustrated.

Mo Hua was lying when he said he wasn't moved. He also wanted to know what kind of techniques the aristocratic families practiced and what their mysteries were.

After thinking about it, Mo Hua no longer refused, silently keeping the kindness of the Bai family brothers and sisters in mind, and then took the jade slip from Bai Zisheng's hand and read:

"Small Five Elements Technique" is suitable for middle-grade five-element spiritual root cultivation. It is a simplified version of the top-grade "Great Five Elements Technique". A monk can refine spiritual power for up to thirty-three days, and can control the five types of five-element spells of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It is simple General use...

"Lingyin Jue" is suitable for middle-grade water spiritual root cultivation, can cultivate spiritual power for twenty-eight weeks, and is suitable for concealment spells...

"Fire Flame Technique" is suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade fire-based spiritual roots. It can refine spiritual power for thirty-five weeks and increase the power of fire-based spells by 10 to 20%...

new

"Water and Wood Spiritual Gong" is suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade water-type and wood-type spiritual roots. It can refine spiritual power for thirty-six days. Practicing this method can cleanse the meridians, warm and nourish the body, and reduce training bottlenecks. This exercise can nourish the body, but it cannot strengthen the body. It is not suitable to be used as the main attack method. Required spiritual objects: Tianshen wood, boundless water, spirit-transforming liquid...

…

Mo Hua looked dazzled and thought everything was very good, but as he looked at it, his brows gradually wrinkled.

"Is there no suitable one?" Bai Zisheng asked when he saw Mo Hua frowning.

Mo Hua asked after careful consideration: "What is Tianshen wood?"

"Tianshenmu is the root of Tianshen. It can nourish the body and is not too expensive."

"How many spiritual stones will it cost?"

"Heavenly ginseng buds are extremely valuable, but heavenly ginseng wood is much cheaper. It only costs a few hundred spiritual stones." Bai Zisheng said uncertainly.

"Then what is the boundless water?"

Bai Zisheng didn't know either, so he scratched his head and looked at Bai Zixi.

Bai Zixi's beautiful eyes turned slightly and said: "The Boundless Water is the seawater of the Boundless Sea. It needs to be refined by the alchemist for forty-nine days to remove the impurities in the seawater. The final product is the Boundless Water. The Boundless Water is not expensive, but It takes a lot of effort, a small bottle of boundless water costs about a thousand spirit stones, and if it is in a remote place, it will be more expensive, and this kind of spiritual object is relatively rare, and you may not be able to buy it if you occasionally find spirit stones."

Mo Hua took a deep breath.

What kind of skills are these? He can't afford to practice at all!

For a technique like "Water Wood Spiritual Art", even if it only requires a stick of Tianshenmu and a small bottle of boundless water, the spiritual stones required far exceed Mo Hua's expectations.

What's more, looking at the description of the exercises, spiritual objects are required for cultivation, spiritual objects are required for breakthroughs, and spiritual stones for daily practice, which add up to an astronomical amount, which is far beyond what Mo Hua can afford.

This is still consumed during the Qi Refining period, not to mention the subsequent Foundation Establishment stage. It is a well-known fact that the further you go in cultivation, the more resources you will need.

Even if Mo Hua really became a first-level formation master and painted formations day and night, he might not be able to afford the cost of such training.

Mo Hua looked at Bai Zisheng, then at Bai Zixi, and couldn't help but ask: "Are all the disciples in your family practicing this kind of technique?"

"Of course not," Bai Zisheng shook his head, "The direct disciples practice more advanced techniques, and the required heavenly materials and earthly treasures are much more precious than these. Some spiritual objects are even more valuable and have no market. Only the family itself Treasure it and never tell it to anyone else.”

"But this kind of skill cannot be taught to others. Even if you want to teach it to others, without these unique spiritual objects required for practice, others will not be able to practice it."

"The ones I gave you are the best among the techniques that can be taught to others as appropriate. Generally, collateral disciples or common disciples may not be qualified to practice unless they have excellent qualifications."

"Will your family give you spiritual objects for practicing the exercises?" Mo Hua asked.

"Other people don't know, but Zixi and I, all the things we use for practice are given by our mother." Bai Zisheng said.

Bai Zixi glanced at Bai Zisheng and said calmly:

"The family will divide the grades of disciples according to their direct disciples and talents. The more direct disciples, the better the talent. The higher the grade within the family, the more training resources they will be given. Direct disciples with excellent talents will basically be able to use them as long as they are needed for cultivation. It’s all about getting what you want…”

"Other disciples, if they want to practice better techniques and exceed the training resources required for fixed products, they have to find a way on their own. Usually parents or other relatives spend merit points to exchange spiritual items with the clan."

"No matter what the situation is, the children of the aristocratic family only need to practice. They don't have to figure out the spiritual stones and spiritual objects needed for cultivation."

"Yes," Bai Zisheng nodded and said:

"Whether our Bai family or other aristocratic families have lasted for at least a thousand years, they have accumulated a rich foundation and have easy access to heaven, materials and earthly treasures. Except for those who are truly extinct, all the heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can be obtained are not considered scarce."

Mo Hua was shocked in his heart. The resources of the aristocratic family were as vast as the vast ocean, and the inheritance was as numerous as the vast ocean. However, what casual cultivators could obtain was only a drop in the ocean.

No wonder the Qi refining period is just the beginning for the monks, but for the casual cultivators at the bottom, it is a lifetime.
