Chapter 26 Training
Wang Hong came to the big square again, this time he carried a big bag full of spiritual grains.
These are also the output of his space for half a year. He found a businessman who bought the Linggu, and after bargaining, he finally sold it for 135 pieces of Lingshi.
Find the bookstall where I bought the book last time, and plan to buy a book on practicing exercises. Wang Hong has four spiritual roots of wood, fire, earth, and water, and all four systems of exercises can be practiced.
The four types of exercises have their own characteristics, and there is no distinction between good and bad. For example, the wood type is vigorous, the fire type is violent, the metal type is mainly killing, the soil type is thick, and the water type is weak and long.
"Come and see, come and see! Every book is a treasure. Don't miss this great opportunity!"
From a long distance, I heard the tall and thin man shouting.
"Yo! This brother, long time no see, I miss you very much, what book do you want to buy today?"
As soon as he approached the bookstall, the tall and thin man greeted him. Wang Hong slandered in his heart. He just bought a copy of "The Basics of Cultivation of Immortals" here the day before yesterday.
"You don't need to miss it. If you can get a 20% discount, it will be more sincere. I want to find a wood-based practice method." Wang Hong said with a smile on the stick.
After thinking deeply, Wang Hong felt that he still liked the wood-type kungfu the most. Anyway, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, so he chose the one he likes.
"Hey, brother, I only earn some hard money. Just ask, my book is already the lowest price in the city." The tall and thin man complained.
Wang Hong picked it up from the pile of books, and found several books of wood-based exercises. There are "Yimu Jue", "Qingmu Changsheng Gong", and "Changchun Gong".
After some comparisons, Wang Hong finally chose Yimu Jue. This technique is the most popular and has no advantages or disadvantages. It is relatively easy to get started, and it is most suitable for casual cultivators like Wang Hong who have no one to guide them and do everything by themselves.
Wang Hong chose another book, "The Illustrated Catalog of Spiritual Medicines". Although "The Basics of Cultivation of Immortals" also contains content about spiritual herbs, it is too simple and there are not many herbs included. "Elitic Medicine Illustrated Record" introduces more than one thousand kinds of medicinal materials in detail, as well as their characteristics and effects.
His space can plant elixir, and he will definitely deal with various elixir frequently in the future, so it is better to get familiar with it in advance.
The tall and thin man said it very affectionately, putting away the Lingshi, it was not vague at all. He received forty Lingshi for the two books, half of which was not less.
Wang Hong bought the exercises and hurried back to the station without staying in the city. Call the five team leaders to the front, and let them enter the city in batches to familiarize themselves with the environment in the city, especially the square market, and familiarize themselves with the items and their prices there.
Each of them was given two spirit stones to buy some supplies, especially clothing. After these months of fighting, dozens of people were dressed in tatters, like beggars.
Wang Hong told him not to disturb him if he had nothing to do these days, and then he got into the space. He first put a spirit stone on the ground of the space, and then put a spirit stone on the wooden shelf.
Then carefully observe the changes of the two spirit stones. After a quarter of an hour, a small corner of the spirit stone on the ground disappeared, and after that small corner disappeared, only a little powder remained.
The reason why spirit stones can become the currency of the world of cultivating immortals is because they contain a lot of spiritual energy, which can be refined and absorbed by immortal cultivators, and can also be used for refining weapons, alchemy, formations, etc. When the spiritual energy in the spirit stone is consumed, Just a little bit of powder remains.
The spiritual stones on the wooden frame are the same as before, without any change. It seems that the land is absorbing spiritual energy.
It's just that the land has absorbed the aura and there is no change. "Maybe it's because it absorbs too little."
Wang Hong threw another ten spirit stones on the ground and let them slowly absorb them. Then I went to read a book.
After a while, all the spirit stones disappeared. Wang Hong was cruel and directly scattered fifty spirit stones on the ground.
Wait until all fifty spirit stones disappeared, Wang Hong sensed the space carefully, and finally found out this time, Wang Hong couldn't help showing a smile.
As an innate master, Wang Hong's sense is naturally extremely keen. The space becomes a little bigger than before.
Wang Hong murmured in his heart, absorbing more than 70 pieces of spirit stones to expand it just a little bit. You must know that many casual practitioners during the Qi training period can't earn so many spirit stones even in a year.
It seems that it is extremely difficult to expand the space, so take your time.
Facing the east, cross-legged in a posture with five hearts facing the sky, slowly running the exercises, while sensing and absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.
With the operation of the exercises, his original strong internal strength gradually transformed into wisps of blue spiritual power.
After seven weeks of running the exercises, all the internal forces in the body vanished. In the end, only a small cloud of blue gas was left in the dantian, turning slowly like a whirlpool.
Although there is only a small group, it is more condensed and hundreds of times purer than the previous internal force.
After all the internal force has been transformed, continue to sense and absorb the aura of heaven and earth. With a small group of spiritual energy in the dantian as the basis, it is much easier to absorb spiritual energy now.
He could feel the traces of heaven and earth aura, which entered the body from the mouth and nose with the breath, and then slowly dissipated, leaving only a pitiful little bit in the body, turning into spiritual power. This should be the reason for his poor spiritual root aptitude.
Wang Hong didn't lose heart, and continued to practice the exercises, circulating this little bit of spiritual power around his body. It can grow by one point every week of operation.
After practicing for a whole day, Wang Hong's dantian had another ray of spiritual power, which melted into the vortex and slowly rotated.
Wang Hong sensed the results of this day's practice, and couldn't help feeling proud. From now on, he can also be regarded as a cultivator of immortals, and in the future he will practice immortal art, and he will fly to the sky and escape the earth just around the corner.
In the following days, Wang Hong practiced steadily in the tent, and found that the Dragon Tiger Pill he had taken before was still effective in his current practice.
Wang Hong took a few dragon and tiger pills every day, and then ate a meal of spiritual rice, and his cultivation progress was not slow.
On this day, Wang Hong picked more than ten plants of ginseng, Zizhi, and Baiyuzhi that were in the space for 100 years, and wrapped them in more than a dozen small bags.
Wang Hong entered Qingxu City alone, and visited more than a dozen elixir shops, each selling a small package. More than a hundred pieces of spirit stones are not too many for these big drugstores, so they won't be motivated by money.
Century-year-old ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum can only be sold for 20 to 30 spirit stones, while 100-year-old Bai Yuzhi, which is considered a very good healing medicine even in the world of cultivating immortals, can sell for 80 to 90 spirit stones.
All were sold out, and a total of more than 2,000 spirit stones were obtained. It's a pity that it can't be sold like this for a short time, because it is easy to attract attention, which is not good.
Wang Hong went to the stalls in the square to buy some elixir at random, and then returned to his tent, where he picked various medicinal materials from the space and mixed them together.
Called the five team leaders together: "Zhao Ning, Xu Lun, Zhang Chunfeng, Luo Zhongjie, Wen Lan, how well do your five teams know about that city? Are you familiar with the various medicinal materials?"
"During this time, we wandered around the market every day, and in addition to studying the "Essential Medicine Catalog" handed down by the general, we are familiar with the identification of common spiritual herbs and their prices."
Wang Hong took several elixir at random to test, and found that he also mastered the elixir. Although there are still some deficiencies, they can be slowly filled later.
Then, Wang Hong handed over a large package of elixir and a hundred pieces of spiritual stones to the five of them. Let them start tomorrow and take turns to set up stalls in that market, selling and buying at the same time. The one hundred spirit stones were used as the starting capital, and the five people were in charge together.
Actually, his main goal is to get rid of the medicinal materials in the space and replace them with spirit stones.
Since the space land can be upgraded and enlarged by absorbing spirit stones, we must try our best to earn more spirit stones and increase the area of the space.
The current piece of land is too small to grow much. However, the spiritual grass in the world of cultivating immortals often takes decades to grow, and the area is too small for hundreds of years.
What's more, as a farmer, how could he dislike having too much land? Of course, the more the better.
After reading "The Illustrated Catalog of Elixirs", he also had some understanding of elixirs. Some are just ordinary plants in the mortal world, which become panacea because they grow in places with rich aura and absorb aura.
The same is true for several herbs in his space, such as ginseng, purple lucidum, and sealwort. There are also some elixir unique to the world of cultivating immortals, which he does not currently have in his space.
Elixirs are divided into several grades, and the grades are related to the type of elixir and the year of growth.
Some types of elixir can reach the second level after only a few decades of growth, while some elixir can only reach the first level after a hundred years.
As long as the year is long enough, even an ordinary elixir will become a high-level elixir. For example, if a weed can grow in a place with rich aura, it can become a fairy grass after ten thousand years. Of course, the ten-thousand-year elixir is just a legend, and no one in the world of cultivating immortals has had the chance to experience it. Even the thousand elixir is enough to make the old monster Nascent Soul break his head.
Wang Hong is now planning to sell some of the elixir in the space and plant some elixir of a slightly higher grade. The existing ginseng in the space needs to grow for a hundred years to be worth spirit stones, which is not worth it.
