Chronicles of the Green Vine: A Mortal’s Path to Immortality

Zhang Ling relaxed his mind and entered a state of selflessness.

The surrounding sounds disappeared, as if he were in a dark room. In his perception, there were many invisible air currents in this darkness, devouring and transforming each other, changing every moment.

Suddenly, a wisp of air current drilled into his body.

This wisp of air current entered his body and disappeared in an instant. It was as if the feeling just now was an illusion, but Zhang Ling felt that he was not mistaken.

These invisible airs seemed to be the heaven and earth spiritual energy mentioned in the Thick Earth Sutra.

Every once in a while, Zhang Ling could sense a wisp of air current, but these air currents were very individual, and there was only a small chance that they would be triggered.

However, as the air currents frequently entered his body, Zhang Ling became more and more familiar with these air currents.

It was as if his body was also adapting to these air currents. Unconsciously, Zhang Ling guided and refined these air currents entering his body according to the meridian routes on the Thick Earth Sutra cultivation method.

The air currents passing through the meridians in the body were difficult to control at first, but he guided them again and again. At a certain moment, a wisp of air current completed a circle according to the meridian route, and finally this wisp of air current flowed into his lower abdomen dantian, and the air current also became docile.

With one success, Zhang Ling cultivated even more diligently. More and more air currents were refined by him, becoming docile and eventually gathering in his dantian.

In this way, he entered a selfless cultivation state.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Ling suddenly opened his eyes with a pale face, and his body trembled. At this moment, he was sore all over, and his meridians felt a slight tingling.

When he triggered a wisp of air current just now, the progress was very slow, and as the air current entered the meridians, a feeling of swelling came. He quickly gave up refining this wisp of air, and the breath in his body instantly became disordered.

Zhang Ling took a full half an hour to recover while lying on the bed. He moved his body and walked to the window. When he looked at the sky, it was pitch black outside, and some insects were chirping from time to time.

It was already very late. He remembered that he started cultivating in the morning, and he had been cultivating for eight or nine hours.

In the next few days, Zhang Ling did not cultivate, but instead read a book on cultivating immortals' experiences.

This booklet recorded some common sense of cultivation, and also knew the reason for the previous situation.

It was because the cultivation time was too long, which led to swelling of the meridians in the body, unable to withstand the heaven and earth spiritual energy. And forcibly dispersing the spiritual energy absorbed into the body also caused some damage to his own meridians.

Fortunately, his body was no longer like an ordinary person. Due to the parasitic vine, he was more resilient than ordinary people, so there was no major problem.

After resting for three days, Zhang Ling recovered. If it were an ordinary person, it would take ten days and a half months to recover.

At this moment, there were two air masses in his dantian, one was originally caused by the parasitic vine for some reason, and the other was only a few strands of silk wrapped around the air mass, which came from cultivating the Thick Earth Sutra.

The two air masses were not compatible, each occupying a corner of the dantian, and both could be controlled by him.

According to the cultivation experience, novices who have just started cultivating should not exceed two hours a day, otherwise the meridians in the body will be damaged. In severe cases, there will be a risk of cultivation deviation.

However, this also confirmed that he could sense the heaven and earth spiritual energy, which meant that he had spiritual roots and could become a cultivator.

However, this cultivation experience is only an overview of a cultivator's own cultivation progress, and the recorded things are limited. There is no explanation of what spiritual roots are.

Zhang Ling now only knows that cultivators cultivate by absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and spiritual roots are the medium for sensing spiritual power. Heaven and earth spiritual energy has different attributes, and spiritual roots seem to be the same.

It is recorded above that the owner of this experience took a month to introduce Qi into the body for the first time.

The speed of cultivation progress represents the quality of the immortal cultivation qualification.

Zhang Ling didn't know how to judge the quality of the spiritual root qualification.

And he himself can introduce Qi into the body in one day, and his qualification seems to be much better than the owner of this experience.

However, Zhang Ling faintly felt that it was not much stronger. Because of the parasitic vine, his body had already changed, and he could not simply use this to judge his own immortal cultivation qualification.

He can only wait until he really comes into contact with cultivators before he can understand.

In the following time, in addition to cultivation, Zhang Ling also studied other things.

The yellow leather bag can hold things. As long as you wrap the items with a wisp of spiritual energy cultivated, and then guide them with perception, you can put the items in the bag.

Similarly, if you want to take out things, you also need to use perception and spiritual energy.

And the dozen or so small stones of different colors originally contained in the bag also contained spiritual power. Zhang Ling tried it and found that they could also be absorbed.

The spiritual energy in these stones is more concentrated. He first tried a small red stone. Although the spiritual energy in it was abundant, the feeling of introducing it into the body was not good, and there was a burning sensation.

It was very difficult to run the Thick Earth Sutra to refine these spiritual energies, and only one out of ten was left.

The spiritual energy in the green stone is also the same, but the feeling of the spiritual energy in it is different, it is much gentler, and when introduced into the body, it has a kind of majestic vitality, but it is equally difficult to refine.

Only the spiritual energy in the earthy yellow stone can be directly refined and absorbed by him.

Zhang Ling guessed that these stones are spiritual stones of different attributes.

It seems that the spiritual power in the earthy yellow stone corresponds to the cultivated Thick Earth Sutra. It may be the earth attribute spiritual energy, so it can be easily refined and absorbed by him.

However, there are only a dozen of these spiritual stones. There are only four earthy yellow spiritual stones. He doesn't know the value of the spiritual stones and doesn't want to waste them simply, so he gave up the idea of using spiritual stones to cultivate.

In addition to the items in the bag, there are two other items that are also items of cultivators.

A short sword and a white jade pendant.

These two items are both magical weapons used by cultivators, as Li Changfeng said.

Zhang Ling studied for a while, and then he understood the function. The short sword looks like it is used for attack. Although it is broken and broken, it is extremely sharp. With a light wave, it can cut deep sword marks on a large stone.

Ordinary flying swords can be cut off with one cut. It can be said to be a magic weapon that cuts iron like mud.

There are also some mysterious runes on it. When spiritual power is injected into it, half of the sword body can also emit a blue light, which can release a sword light, and its power is even more powerful.

After the white jade pendant is injected with spiritual power, it will form a semi-circular light curtain in front of it, which is quite magical.

The light curtain looks light and fluttering, but as long as enough spiritual power is injected, it can be condensed into a light curtain one foot long and wide, which can be used for defense.

However, Zhang Ling found that the spiritual power he cultivated could only allow the jade pendant to emit a light curtain a few feet long and wide.

And the other air current generated in the dantian due to the parasitic vine also seems to be a kind of spiritual power. It can also be used to activate these two things.
