In the Heavens

"Master, the atmosphere on the mountain has been tense recently. I'm afraid someone will make a fuss about it this time. This disciple has just made a breakthrough..."

Even though he knew he couldn't escape, Li Mu still struggled as much as possible.

Zhou Qingyun gave a reassuring look, and said with a smile, "You are the only one who has a lot of thoughts. Don't worry, the world is not peaceful recently, and the door plans to take this opportunity to beat the restless forces in the world.

So this competition is not only for you, the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance will send disciples to participate. At that time, there will be friends from all walks of life watching the ceremony, and no one will make trouble on such an occasion.

After the big competition, there may be challenges to learn from each other. This is your best chance to make a name for yourself, don't let it go to waste. "

Hearing this explanation, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief. Don't look at how fierce the two schools of Sword Qi are fighting each other, but when it comes to the outside world, everyone is still a family.

Since there are outsiders present, this martial arts competition is not a sword fight.

Thinking about it is also true. Although the original book does not mention the specific time of the sword qi battle, it can be roughly judged by pushing forward the ages of several protagonists.

Yue Buqun and himself started at the same time, so the age gap should not be too big, probably in their twenties.

Considering that it didn't take long for Yue Buqun to succeed to the head after the battle of sword qi, it can be judged that his martial arts at that time had already achieved some success.

At worst, he broke through to the first class, otherwise there would be no way to prop up the Huashan gate in this world of the jungle.

Huashan martial arts focuses on the foundation, and is not outstanding in the speed of practice. From second-rate to first-rate, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to go from ten to eight years.

However, considering the critical situation in Huashan at that time, the head of the sect is likely to use the background in the sect, and this time may be cut in half.

It couldn't be faster. Genius treasures that can greatly improve one's cultivation are hard to come by, and even fewer can be preserved for a long time. What's more, the basic potential has to be considered, and the room for choice is even smaller.

You know, during the previous invasion of the ten elders of the Devil's Sect, the Huashan faction's heritage was consumed once. In recent years, he has been caught in the battle of sword qi again, and he has not added much at all.

With a buffer of four or five years, Li Mu's hanging heart was finally relieved. It is unrealistic to eliminate the battle of sword qi, but he is still sure of self-protection.

"Don't worry, Master. The disciple will not disappoint you."

Since you can't hide, then face it calmly. Anyway, there are quite a few talented disciples of the Huashan School, as long as they don't have too much fun, even if they get a little limelight, they don't make a fuss.

What's more, with Li Mu's current strength, it is estimated that he is slightly stronger than the "Four Talents of Qingcheng" in the opening of Xiaoao.

The platform built in the door this time was not prepared for him. The ones who can really take this opportunity to make a name for themselves are those who started earlier.

The best among them have even broken through the first-class realm, and they are not much worse than the older generation. These talents are the protagonists of this big drama.

"Um."

Seemingly satisfied with Li Mu's reaction, after a slight pause, Zhou Qingyun added:

"The Grand Competition is coming soon. Bu Mu's cultivation base has just broken through, and he needs to consolidate his realm, so he can't be distracted by other things. Bufan will inform the Internal Affairs Hall, and your junior brother will be exempted from the sect mission for three years."

There is no doubt that the "big competition" is just an excuse, Zhou Qingyun's real purpose is to take the opportunity to benefit his disciples.

There are no rules, and as a martial arts school that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the Huashan School naturally has a set of operating systems.

According to the rules of the sect, new disciples must start to take on the tasks of the sect after ten years of initiation.

Elite disciples have preferential treatment, but this preferential treatment is limited to arranging easier tasks and having more training time.

It is impossible not to work, this is the sect's rule. After all, people in the rivers and lakes also have to eat. If they were all rice borers, what would these thousands of people eat?

Like before, it was a relatively easy sect task for Li Mu to lead new juniors and younger sisters to practice swords. Not only is the task time short, but you can also stay on the mountain, and you can ask a teacher at any time if you encounter problems in cultivation.

Of course, it is not without reason that this "good task" fell to Li Mu. In case the cultivation progress of the younger brothers and younger sisters is not up to standard, he, the leader of the team, will also be punished accordingly.

Don't miss the benefits of being delivered to your door, Li Mu hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for your love, Master, this disciple is really..."

This is the truth. Although Zhou Qingyun is a bit upright and rigid, he treats these disciples really well.

Zhou Qingyun interrupted: "Okay, Mu Mu, there is no need to talk about this between us master and apprentice.

Now that you have made a breakthrough, it is time to consider the issue of transferring inner strength and mental methods.

Huashan Xinfa is indeed a top internal skill. Theoretically speaking, it can even be cultivated until innate, and it is one of the highest-limit exercises of the Huashan School.

Looking at the whole world, Huashan Xinfa is the top few foundation-building exercises. Not only can it be practical, but it also has a certain weakening effect when breaking through the realm.

The only problem is that the cultivation speed is too slow. "

"Master, if it's just that the cultivation speed is slow, but it has the effect of weakening the bottleneck, can it be made up for?"

Li Mu asked suspiciously.

We must know that the most important reason why there are few masters in the martial arts is the "bottleneck". Moreover, the later stage it was, the more difficult it was to break through the realm it faced.

I saw Zhou Qingyun laughed, and then explained: "If it's just ordinary slowness, it's not a problem. Genius and treasure are rare, but ordinary auxiliary resources, my Huashan faction still doesn't lack.

But the problem is that Huashan's mental method is extremely slow, especially after the fourth level, it is not even one-third of the ordinary inner strength cultivation speed. Even if the cultivation bottleneck can be weakened, it is only weakened, and it does not necessarily mean that it can be broken through.

You have outstanding talents, and your cultivation has been smooth and smooth, maybe you don't feel deeply. Just look at your Bufan senior brother. You have reached the third-rate peak two years ago and are still stuck there.

If you are lucky, you may be able to break through tomorrow; if you are unlucky, you will be stuck for another three to five years. Most of the inner disciples of my Huashan School broke through to the second-rate realm when they were around thirty years old.

Based on your aptitude, if you switch to other internal skills, it is estimated that you will be able to reach the second-rate peak in seven or eight years. If you are lucky, you may break through to the first-rate before the age of thirty. In the future, you may even have a glimpse of the mystery of the top.

If you continue to practice the Huashan mental method hard, it will take at least 30 years to touch the first-class threshold. Even if it is a smooth breakthrough in the future, but the age has reached there, how many years are there before the peak?

This is the experience and lessons that the predecessors have summed up from their personal experience. Therefore, after Huashan disciples break through the fourth floor, they will switch to a new internal skill. "
