Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 15: Meet each other

The vortex formed in the body is constantly rotating and growing rapidly, opening up the spiritual space bit by bit at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

When the spiritual energy is exhausted and the wind whirlpool disappears, this time's performance will be over.

Tang Jie felt the spiritual sky carefully and knew that there were almost eighty drops of spiritual liquid in it, and he was getting closer and closer to the spiritual spring.

Big and small Zhou Tian will run faster and faster as their proficiency and their own energy gradually become stronger. Otherwise, according to the basic speed, ten thousand drops will become a sea, and they will not reach the spiritual sea level within a few decades.

Tang Jie has now become more and more proficient in the movement of the heavens, and his sense of energy is getting better and better. He can already do six or seven great heavens in one night. At this rate, in ten days at most, he should be able to achieve the spiritual spring.

According to the standard process of Xiyue Academy, it is normal for spiritual eyes to be opened within two months.

In the next six months, he entered Lingquan, one and a half years into Linghu Lake, four and a half years into Linghai, and the remaining two years to escape from the mortal world, a total of eight years.

According to the ten-fold difference between springs, lakes, and seas, basically the standard of each level is increased by ten times, the cultivation speed is increased by three times, and the time is extended by three times, so that we can just catch up with the progress.

For most students, as they become more proficient, it is not difficult at all to increase the speed of Zhou Tian's rotation by three times at each stage. The problem is that in the Lingtai realm, the mental skills must be improved at each stage, that is, There will be new changes, which makes students often have just become familiar with a cultivation method and have to re-learn a new Zhoutian movement method, which suddenly increases the difficulty.

Although the new operation method is also developed on the old basis, there will always be many discomforts, which will delay the progress.

For this reason, this standard process of cultivation is actually based on the fourth transformation.

If it is the ninth level, the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Sea can be achieved in three to four years at the earliest.

If it is the third level, then it is right on the dangerous line. It would be good to escape from the mortal world within ten years.

The Xiyue Academy has established a ten-year rule, which is here to ensure that third-level students still have a great chance to enter the world. Of course, no matter how poor the qualifications are, there is really no way. They can only rely on their own efforts and luck.

It has only been three months since Tang Jie entered school. With the help of the Zangxiang Sutra, he has actually reached the forefront in terms of speed. However, he does not have so many resources to support him, so he should be considered at the end of the first sequence. The other two He can go to Lingquan in a month, which means he only has about ten more days.

At this speed, it is unrealistic for him to complete the spiritual sea within three years, but within four to five years, it will definitely be no problem.

Seeing that the remaining time before dinner was no longer enough to complete a big week, Tang Jie got up and practiced his sword skills again, and became proficient in the use of the water light shield.

Compared with the twelve postures of vertical sword, the training method of water light shield is much more troublesome.

Spells usually consist of two stages.

The first is the circulation of qi in the body.

The second is the traction of magic formula.

The cultivator directs the spiritual energy to circulate and change in the body, such as forming patterns and coincidentally with the great road, so that it can possess all kinds of incredible magical powers, which is called "forming the method" or "executing the method".

When the practice is completed, you still need to use it according to your own intention. You must lead the completed method out of the body, and then make it act according to your intention. You can't condense an arrow of energy and just throw it away and forget about it. This stage is called "drawing the method".

The formation of a spell requires the movement of qi, just like Zhou Tian. Different spells have different requirements for qi movement.

Invoking spells requires spells, and different spells also have different spell requirements.

For new scholars, forming a spell is the most painful thing. After all, you have to control the spiritual energy lines and perform actions according to the law. A spell is like a blueprint. Just memorizing it takes a lot of mental effort. In contrast, the magic formula is much simpler. It is nothing more than a few instruction manuals to make the magic act according to your own wishes. It has great commonality.

For veteran cultivators, the situation is exactly the opposite. They have gone through the most difficult environment for spell creation. After they are proficient enough, spell creation is like Zhou Tian, ​​and generating spells is often just a matter of breathing. On the contrary, it is difficult to compress the magic formula of inducing magic. The most terrible thing is that the magic formula cannot be hidden during battle. Often the opponent can roughly know what you are going to do as soon as they see what magic formula you have made.

As a beginner, Tang Jie is now faced with the problem of establishing the law.

Before this water light mask can be used, it is necessary to consume spiritual liquid first, turn the liquid into gas, and make it run in the body according to the established route, and then squeeze the magic formula to guide it out. Every step is quite troublesome and requires It takes a lot of practice to be able to use it freely.

To put it bluntly, whether it is the Great Zhoutian or the Little Zhoutian, or the techniques, they all need to be mastered through long-term hard practice.

It's just that the proficiency of the spell increases the casting speed, and the power of the spell depends on each person's realm, qualifications, weapons, cultivation skills and the spell itself, plus at most the completeness of the spell.

The terrible thing is that due to limited mana, it is impossible to practice spells at will. Eighty drops of spiritual liquid are only enough to release the water light shield eight times. And with Tang Jie's current speed of Little Zhou Tian's operation and the efficiency of condensing five drops of spiritual liquid at a time, Tang Jie can only recover one hundred and twenty drops in twelve hours, so he can only practice twelve times a day. Regardless of the fact that you cannot practice during these twelve hours.

And even the Hidden Image Sutra can't help. You can only rely on yourself to cherish every opportunity.

At this moment, Tang Jie circulated his Qi according to his mental method, and continued to develop magic techniques. After a while, he finally condensed the water light shield. Calculating the casting time, it actually took twenty seconds. Tang Jie smiled bitterly: "At this speed, When I was released, all ten of me were hacked to death."

You have to find a way to improve it.

The best way is still to use medicine to restore spiritual energy. By using medicine to increase spiritual energy, a small week can increase the recovery effect several times or even dozens of times.

It’s just that these medicines are really expensive, and the biggest problem with the elixirs is that they only help temporarily. Cultivation takes a long time, and if you really want to rely on elixirs to make up for the huge gap in talent, even selling the Wei family won't be enough.

Tang Jie thought for a while and finally gave up on the idea of ​​buying medicine. The two elders of the Wu family needed it more than he did.

While thinking, Shi Meng suddenly arrived.

"The young master asked you to go to his side."

"What's the matter?" Tang Jie put away his sword and asked.

"The eldest young master and the second young master are here."

——————————————

Arrived at Jingxin Garden, Tang Jie saw six people sitting in the garden besides Wei Tianchong.

Except for Wei Ming, whom Tang Jie had met before, the leader of the other three people was slender and had a square face with Chinese characters. He was quite similar to Wei Danbai. At first glance, it was obvious that he was tall Young Master Wei Tianzhi.

As for the young master Wei Tianchong, he has a rounder oval face, inheriting the look of his mother. It is no wonder that the wife prefers the younger son.

When Wei Tianchong entered school a few days ago, Wei Tianzhi was out training and had no time to see him. Today he finally came.

There were two other people on both sides of Wei Tianzhi. One of them, Tang Jie, recognized him just at a glance. This must be Wu Xing. He was the son of Old Man Wu after all, and he also had some of his father's charm.

At this moment, the four of them were talking in the courtyard. Tang Jie arrived and saluted Wei Tianchong first: "Hello, young master."

Then he turned to Wei Tianzhi: "Eldest Young Master! Second Young Master!"

Wei Ming was quite polite and nodded to Tang Jie.

Wei Tianzhi looked at Tang Jie and said, "You must be Tang Jie. I have heard of your name. Not long after you came here, you got the nickname of Kuangsheng. As a servant, your behavior is It's a bit too showy, but it's not as steady as my mother said."

The eldest young master and his father are almost from the same mold, even their tone of voice is so mature.

Tang Jie could only answer: "Yes, the boy can enter the academy and his wish has come true. I got carried away for a while. I hope the young master will forgive me and I will not dare to do it again in the future."

Wei Tianzhi just nodded, pointed to the person next to him and said: "This is Xiaozhe, and this is Wu Xing, my servant. Speaking of which, Wu Xing is also your brother. This is the first time for you two brothers. Let’s meet and get to know each other well.”

Tang Jie then turned to Wu Xing: "Brother Wu Xing, Tang Jie was lucky to be rescued by his adoptive parents, so he escaped death and had the opportunity to enter the academy. It's hard to repay your kindness and kindness. If anything happens to my brother in the future, , Even if you send your younger brother to do it, you will not dare to say anything."

Then Wu Xing nodded: "You're welcome, my parents also wrote a letter praising you for your filial piety. During my absence, I thank you for taking care of me."

Although he said it politely, his tone was calm, but there was no hint of excitement when he saw his younger brother. Tang Jie didn't think it was strange. After all, it was the first time they met. As time went by, it would be fine if they developed feelings for each other.

After sitting down, everyone started chatting together.

Tang Jie then learned that Wei Tianzhi, Wu Xing and the others had gone to the Thunder Mountains a few days ago to carry out the college's herb collection task. They said it was a trial, but in fact they were still making money.

Practice cannot be done without resources. Relying solely on family support is a bottomless pit. For students, no amount of money is enough. For this reason, even rich young people have to spend time every once in a while. Go make some good for yourself.

Therefore, Xiyue Academy will also prepare some trial areas for students, both to supplement resources and to provide trials.

This Thunder Mountain Range is located to the north of Wenxin. It is a ferocious land. There are many monsters and beasts in it, but there are also geniuses and treasures. Every year, students from Xiyue Academy go there to explore. Those who successfully obtain a large amount of resources , but there are also some who died because of it.

At this time, Wei Tianchong was asking his brother how the harvest was. Wei Tianzhi shook his head and sighed: "The Thunder Mountains are very dangerous. On the first day I went there, I witnessed a senior brother being eaten by a monster. It would be great if he came back alive. No matter what the profit is."

"Didn't you say it was led by a master from the academy? How come someone died?" Wei Tianchong was puzzled.

Wei Tianzhi replied: "It is true that there is a guru to lead, but the problem is that with a large number of students, good things are not enough. According to the rules of the college, the guru is responsible for protection. If the gains are obtained by the guru, It still belongs to the college and has nothing to do with the students. If you want to gain something, you cannot take shelter under the wings of a master, so students have to travel alone after all. On the first day I entered the Thunder Mountains, I I encountered a crisis and survived by chance, and never dared to take a step away from my master again. After more than a month, I came back and relied on the hard work of serving tea and water to get a bottle of Qi Pill, but it was a drop in the bucket."

Wei Tianzhi sighed and shook his head.

He was originally a young man from a wealthy family, and he had always been served by others. After going to the Thunder Mountains, he had to rely on serving his master to get some leftovers. He was really in a bad mood.

If he is like this, then Wu Xing Xiaozhe will naturally not be much better.

"So, it will be extremely difficult for my brother to enter the world within ten years?" Wei Tianchong felt a little sad for his brother.

"Transcend from the world? I don't want to escape from the world for a long time!" Wei Tianzhi laughed. After the laughter, his voice suddenly turned deeper and he said sadly: "Seven years! I have been in school for seven years, but I can't help it." I am not talented enough, I only have the second level, and I am still in the Spiritual Lake realm, and I am still far away from the Spiritual Sea. I am ashamed of my parents’ expectations. Now my only hope is to complete the perfection of the Spiritual Sea before the expiration of ten years, so I can still Get the way to escape from the mortal world..."

The rule of Xiyue Academy is to teach one step at a time.

If you can reach the Great Consummation of the Spiritual Sea before the expiration of ten years, even if you cannot go to the transcendent world, you will at least have the qualifications to impact the transcendent world. No matter how slowly you cultivate, it is possible to reach transcendence again.

As long as he doesn't tell anyone about his secrets.

There are many donated students. Although they failed in the academy, they did not really lose hope in life. A large number of them were promoted after leaving the academy.

Otherwise, with such a difficult threshold, such a high elimination rate, and such a large expense, everyone should consider whether it is worth it.

Just because there is still this escape route, even those who turn around dare to rush in. Isn’t it that if you can achieve it in ten years, I can achieve it in twenty years?

Of course, after achieving transcendence, one often stops at the first level because there is no follow-up mentality.

The most numerous spiritual masters in Qixia world are this type of spiritual masters.

Compared to Wei Tianzhi, Wei Ming is slightly better.

He has been admitted for three years and has been in school for five years. Although his family's resources are limited, he still gives him what he needs. From the entry point of view, we are on the bottom line of the standard line, which can be said to be wandering on the cliff. If we take a step forward, we may succeed, but if we take a step back, we may lose. The fifty percent chance is clearly reflected in him.

As for Wu Xing, he also had a three-year career, but he did not have the resources of a second young master. Therefore, his entry level was similar to that of an eldest young master. He no longer expected to enter the mortal world, but also hoped to complete the spiritual world before graduation.

After this moment of sadness, Wei Tianzhi suddenly changed his mind and said: "In addition to seeing you, I also want to see how you are getting into the country. Tianchong, can you study Dharma now?"

"Yes, I learned a spiritual art." Wei Tianchong answered honestly.

"Spiritual Entrainment Technique? What is that? What's the use of learning that?" Wei Tianzhi was very dissatisfied: "We, as cultivators, have been brave and diligent in cultivating immortals, and faced countless difficulties and obstacles along the way. You learn this childish way and try it in the future. How can practicing energy help? Do you really want your family to support you for the rest of your life? This is nonsense!"

Wei Tianchong was so scolded by his elder brother that he did not dare to speak and could only look at Tang Jie.

Tang Jie had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer: "Young Master, I suggested that the Young Master learn the Spiritual Induction Technique. Although this technique has no combat effectiveness, it is the basis for controlling puppets. The Young Master is carving a line. He is quite talented, so I would like to give you some small suggestions..."

"I know he can sculpt, but can he achieve the art of puppetry just by being able to sculpt? Sculpting is only for the form, the material is the foundation, and the formation is the soul! Can he refine the formation? Does he have the materials? It has a form but no origin and no soul, so what's the use? Moreover, the way of a cultivator lies in oneself. If you rely on external things, your future will be limited after all!" Wei Tianzhi's training was so severe that even Tang Jie could not speak.

His words are not unreasonable, but the standard is too high.

The way of the puppet may not be the road leading to the end of the immortal road, but for most cultivators, what they want is to go as far as they can. After all, the end of the immortal road is just to see. Think about it, it’s still difficult to do it from a distance.

What's more, even if Wei Tianchong practices the puppet method, he may not be able to practice other techniques. After all, many of the current techniques are just the foundation, the foundation, and the tools to achieve the goal. As long as the foundation does not go astray, there is no need for means. So true.

It's a pity that he is the eldest young master after all, and Tang Jie can't refute him hard, so he can only bow his head and accept it.

It was the second young master Wei Ming who persuaded him a few times, but the eldest young master stopped talking.

However, Tang Jie knew that because of the name Tang Jie and the Spiritual Induction Technique, the young master might not like him no matter how he looked at him, so he could only sigh.

While eating, Tang Jie found an opportunity to talk to Wu Xing alone and asked Wu Xing: "I wonder if brother Wu Xing has any spiritual money on him?"

"There are some, but not much. Why do you ask? If you want to borrow..."

Tang Jie smiled and said: "Brother Wu Xing misunderstood, it's like this. My parents are not in good health now, and I plan to buy a bottle of longevity elixir for them."

"Life-prolonging pill?" Wu Xing was surprised: "That's a magic medicine, it requires a piece of spiritual jade!"

Elixirs are divided into levels, including mortal, spiritual and immortal, and each has its own level of functions. For example, the medicine Lu Chenyang gave to Tang Jie was actually an ordinary medicine. It was said to be a spiritual medicine, but it was just like a mortal calling a spiritual master an immortal master, which inflated his worth.

This life-prolonging pill is a real elixir that can reshape a mortal and prolong life. If the two elders take it, it will definitely get rid of years of old maladies.

Hearing what Wu Xing said at this moment, Tang Jie sighed: "Yes, it's just because it's too expensive, so I asked my brother for help. I thought we might be able to buy it together."

Wu Xing said angrily: "That's a piece of spiritual jade, and it costs a thousand spiritual coins. Where can I get this much for you?"

"You don't need so much. This time when I entered school, I was lucky enough to make some money. As long as my brother can support me with eighty-three spiritual coins, it will be enough. ~IndoMTL.com~ What? Then you Don't you have more than 900 yuan?" Wu Xing was shocked.

"Yes." Tang Jie replied.

He did not mince his words, and told him about the fish scales he had obtained and the functions of the fish scales he discovered, and then said: "The fish scales were cultivated in total for nine. I sold them and got nine hundred yuan, plus the profit I made before. Forty spiritual coins, a total of nine hundred and forty. Later, I spent twenty-three spiritual coins on the book of techniques, and now I have nine hundred and seventeen coins left."

At first, he thought that the more than 900 spiritual money left was enough. Later, when he inquired and found out that he wanted so much, he regretted it, so he had no choice but to ask Wu Xing for help. After all, the two elders were also his biological parents.

Unexpectedly, Wu Xing looked embarrassed when he heard this: "Well... I don't have that many here."

"How come my brother hasn't even saved 83 spiritual coins after seven years in school?" Tang Jie was surprised.

"That's not true. It's just that the money has been used to buy medicine. Who will keep it? I really can't get it out at once."

Tang Jie thought for a while and sighed: "In that case, I'll borrow some from the young master first. I just need you to send it out for me. What do you think?"

"Why don't you send it yourself?"

Tang Jie smiled: "The two elders have great expectations for you. I think this will make them happier. And I have a crazy temper. I got the nickname "Crazy Born" when I entered the academy. I am afraid that the two elders will get into trouble because of me. , I really don’t want too many people to know about my second elder and me...so I asked my brother to take the trouble."

Wu Xing had no choice but to nod.

Tang Jie went to find Wei Tianchong.

Wei Tianchong heard that Tang Jie wanted to borrow money, but he didn't pay much attention, so he gave Tang Jie the spiritual money.

Tang Jie went to Wu Xing with the money and said, "I'll leave everything to my brother."

"Okay, I will take care of this for you." Wu Xing stuffed the money into his arms.
