Mortal Cultivation: Immortality begins with the Spirit Gathering Array!

Jiang State, Guiyuan Sect.

Guiyuan Sect is one of the three major sects of immortal cultivation in Jiang State. It is a neutral sect that acts both righteously and evilly. It is powerful, profound and has a long history.

The founder of the sect is five thousand years old. There have been Yuanying Zhenjun in every generation. Looking at the entire immortal cultivation world, it is a giant. All the independent cultivators and families in Jiang State are eager to join.

Guiyuan Sect is located on the branch of Kunwu Mountain Range in Jingzhou. There are hundreds of large and small sacred mountains in the sect.

The spiritual energy in the sect is rich. If ordinary mortals live here, it is easy to live a long life without illness and disaster. Precious herbs and rare animals for mortals are even more common in the sect.

Tianchi Peak is one of the ordinary sacred mountains in Guiyuan Sect. There is a first-level middle-grade spiritual vein in the mountain. There is an ordinary courtyard on the mountainside, named Guiyuan Courtyard.

Guiyuan Branch is a place where the sect is responsible for teaching children who have just come into contact with the immortal way. There are ordinary teachers in the branch to teach children to read and write, and some ordinary warriors teach some martial arts to strengthen the body.

When the disciples of the branch are ten years old, their tendons and veins are basically grown, and they have initially opened their minds, there will be cultivators to teach some basic common sense of the immortal world.

When they are twelve years old, they will be taught the basic skills of the immortal way, and guide the children to complete the first intake of qi into the body, and officially embark on the path of cultivation.

In Guiyuan Branch, Su Ming, wearing the gray robe of the outer disciples of Guiyuan Sect, is teaching a group of children standing in front of him.

He has a handsome face and a gentle temperament, but his body is a little thin. He doesn't look like a cultivator, but more like an ordinary scholar.

"In this world, only people with spiritual roots can refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and embark on the path of immortality. They have all kinds of incredible magical powers and spells. When they have a high level of cultivation, they can fly into the sky and hide in the ground, turn the rivers and seas upside down..."

"Spiritual roots are born. Mortals without spiritual roots cannot sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, let alone refine it. They are destined to turn into a handful of yellow earth after a hundred years..."

"And you are very lucky to be selected by Guiyuan Sect, which means that you all have spiritual roots and have the opportunity to seek immortality..."

"Spiritual roots can be divided into five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Most immortal cultivators in the world have one of the five elements, or a mixture of multiple attributes."

"In the normal practice process, the fewer and more single the attributes of the spiritual roots, the purer the spiritual roots, the more sensitive they are to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth of the corresponding attributes, and the faster they absorb and refine."

"Therefore, the mixed spiritual roots of the five attributes are called waste spiritual roots in the world of immortal cultivation, which means that their speed of refining spiritual energy is extremely slow, their qualifications are extremely poor, and they are basically out of the immortal path..."

"Four attributes It is a pseudo spiritual root, which can refine spiritual energy faster, while the spiritual roots with three or two attributes will have a considerable improvement in cultivation speed, which is called true spiritual roots..."

"As for the spiritual roots with only one attribute, they are called heavenly spiritual roots, which can easily sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and refine it, and the cultivation speed is extremely fast. The most rare thing is that there is no bottleneck in the cultivation until the Golden Core Stage. It can be said to be a true child of destiny..."

"In addition to the five elements spiritual roots, there are also mutant spiritual roots, such as wind, thunder, ice, etc."

"The cultivation speed of cultivators with different spiritual roots is slower than that of cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots, but it is much faster than that of cultivators with two spiritual roots. After practicing the corresponding special attribute exercises, the mana cultivated is often purer than that of cultivators of the same level, so the spells are more powerful and the fighting ability is quite outstanding."

"You must remember..."

Su Ming instilled the basic common sense of the world of immortal cultivation to the children in front of him, but a mysterious pattern appeared faintly in the depths of his pupils, and then the pattern flashed in his eyes, and even his fellow cultivators did not notice it.

‘After two years, the spirit gathering array has finally been analyzed. It’s time to leave.’

Su Ming looked at the endless mountains outside the courtyard with a deep gaze.

“Junior Brother Su, are you really not considering staying in the courtyard?”

“Although there is really no money here, it is quiet and you can practice without being disturbed on weekdays. It is not bad among the chores of outer disciples...”

In the courtyard, a middle-aged man wearing a gray robe and with gray hair on his temples persuaded him earnestly.

He is the deacon in charge of the courtyard. His name is Zhou Xun. He is at the eighth level of Qi Refining. When he was young, he was an inner disciple. When he was old, he came to Guiyuan Courtyard to be a deacon because he saw that there was no hope of building a foundation.

Su Ming has a gentle personality, works seriously, and treats people politely. Zhou Xun has a cheerful personality and is humorous. After two years of getting along, the two have a very good relationship.

"Junior Brother Su, you and I are both pseudo-spiritual root talents. It is difficult to build a foundation. Why bother to get involved in the open and secret struggles in the sect?"

"Why not be like me, and live a quiet life in Guiyuan Villa. After serving the sect for 20 years, you can retire and return to the secular world to be a rich man. Wouldn't it be happy?"

"If you really feel unwilling, as a disciple of our Guiyuan Sect, you can find a female monk to be your Taoist partner, so that your descendants with excellent talents can continue the immortal path..."

Zhou Xun kept talking, and Su Ming listened with a smile.

Su Ming certainly knew that the senior brother Zhou in front of him was really thinking about him. In this world of immortal cultivation, this sincerity is particularly rare.

But the path of immortal cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Su Ming has no reason to stay in Guiyuan Villa, so he naturally has to leave.

After this farewell, I don't know how many years it will take for them to meet again. Su Ming wants to hear the other party finish.

"Junior Brother Su, I am not saying that you..."

At the end, Zhou Xun glanced at Su Ming, who was smiling, and his thousands of words turned into a sigh.

"Alas... Junior brother, your heart is firm, I am not as good as you..."

"Senior brother, we cultivators are blessed by heaven and embark on the road of cultivation, but we are still like mayflies in the world, a grain of sand in the vast ocean. If I don't see the beautiful scenery of this world of cultivation with my own eyes, I... won't be reconciled!"

Su Ming, who had not spoken from beginning to end, looked at Zhou Xun in front of him. The last three words seemed to have magic, making Senior Brother Zhou in front of him stunned.

After a long time, Zhou Xun took a step back and looked at Su Ming seriously.

"After today's separation, I don't know when we will meet again. Senior brother wishes Junior Brother Su a long life in the immortal way!"

Zhou Xun changed his previous laziness and bowed to Su Ming solemnly.

"Take care, senior brother!"

Su Ming also bowed, took out the flying magic weapon from the storage bag, and left gracefully.

......

Qingcui Peak is one of the hundreds of spiritual mountains in Guiyuan Sect. The spiritual vein level in the mountain is the same as that of Guiyuan Courtyard, both of which are first-grade middle-grade, but the spiritual energy is slightly richer. It is a spiritual mountain specially used for disciples outside the Qi Refining Stage to live.

There is an ordinary cave on the mountainside. The cave is very simple. Except for an old stone bed, there is not even a table.

Su Ming sat cross-legged in the middle of the stone bed, his eyes closed, his expression calm and without joy or sadness. He seemed to be resting his mind with his eyes closed, but in fact his mind had sunk into the Niwan Palace three inches between his eyebrows.

In the Niwan Palace, there are two blurred and constantly changing mysterious patterns. Just looking at them makes people feel heavy-headed and unstable.

However, Su Ming seemed to be unaffected and stared at a pattern on the left.

On the left pattern, dozens of light spots emerged, connecting into a formation diagram that Su Ming thought was extremely mysterious.

It was the first-grade upper-grade spirit gathering formation that Su Ming spent two years analyzing in Guiyuan Courtyard.

When the complete array diagram appeared on the mysterious pattern on the left, Su Ming felt that something was going to change today.

This was a strong premonition, like a sudden impulse, without any reason.

Su Ming opened his eyes, and the spirit gathering array diagram was looming in the depths of his pupils.
