Chapter 2 Mastering the Green Waves Technique, Casual Cultivator Chu He
[Name: Wei Zhong]
[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 7 (56%)]
[Skill: Bilang Gong·Mastery (1%)]
[Lifespan: 127/137]
The days of cultivation are always boring. In order to avoid suspicion, Wei Zhong has been cultivating peacefully in the fields for a period of time after the death of his evil disciple.
Now Bilang Gong has reached the mastery level.
The speed of operation has increased a lot compared to the past, and the efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy has also increased by several percent. Seeing the ten points of proficiency in cultivation, Wei Zhong is happy.
In this way, it will take less than ten years for him to return to the eighth level of Qi Refining, which is even much higher than the original 46%.
If he drops one level, he will have another ten years of lifespan. If he does this, his lifespan will be endless.
Wei Zhong seems to have found a bright spot.
With a heart full of joy, he began to cultivate again.
In the next six years, Wei Zhong cultivated peacefully in the fields.
Occasionally, some of the Yan family's collateral descendants came to ask to be his disciples, but they were all politely rejected by Wei Zhong.
It seemed that seeing Wei Zhong's firm attitude, no one came to visit him gradually.
"Huh!"
Wei Zhong exhaled a breath of turbid air.
He looked at the panel and showed a happy expression.
[Name: Wei Zhong]
[Cultivation: Eighth Level of Qi Refining (46%)]
[Skill: Bilang Gong·Mastery (30%)]
[Lifespan: 133/137]
At this time, I finally returned to the state at the beginning of the time travel, and the progress of the eighth level of Qi Refining was also 46%.
Unlike before, I was no longer an old man with only three days to live.
Instead, I was a cultivator of the eighth level of Qi Refining with a lifespan of four years.
And it was very likely that I would reach the threshold of the ninth level of Qi Refining in the remaining four years.
The mastery level of Bilang Gong has greatly improved my cultivation speed. What would it be like if I could improve it to the master level?
Speaking of it, the Bilang Gong is just a yellow-grade common practice. If we talk about the grade, it is just a middle-grade one, and can be practiced to the middle stage of foundation building at most.
Now, after Wei Zhong's day and night practice, the mastery level of the Bilang Gong is no weaker than the yellow-grade upper-grade practice in terms of practice speed. It's just that the upper limit is lacking.
If it enters the master level, wouldn't the practice speed be comparable to the Xuan-grade practice?
"Squeak!"
Wei Zhong's heart was excited.
As a casual cultivator, Xuan-grade practice, I dare not even think about it.
Wei Zhong has only seen it at an auction, and that time it was a fire-attributed Xuan-grade lower-grade practice called "Fire Wheel Gong".
Once it was auctioned, it reached a high price of two thousand spirit stones.
Ordinary casual cultivators can't get more than a hundred spirit stones in a year of farming, and a practice requires casual cultivators to accumulate for more than 20 years without practicing.
This shows how expensive the Xuan-grade practice is.
After practicing successfully, Wei Zhong was in a good mood and walked out of the yard to the field.
From a distance, he saw an old man and a young man walking towards this side.
‘Strange, no one has come to visit in recent years, why is it an exception today.’
In the distance, Yan Wenbo said to the young man beside him:
“Yan Yuan, the residence of that person is in front.”
The young man looked at the small courtyard in the distance, feeling a little surprised. My uncle said he would bring me to see a master, but unexpectedly it was the spiritual farmer in this field.
“Don’t look at this person as just a spiritual farmer, but he is quite talented in magic. He has already practiced the spiritual rain technique to the level of mastery. Looking at all the spiritual farmers in my Yan family, no one can compare with him.
The clan leader once said that this person’s spiritual rain technique has the style of a master. If you can learn some skills from him, it will be of great help to your future spiritual cultivation.”
Yan Yuan nodded.
······
“Daoyou Wei, I haven’t seen you for many days. You look much better.”
Wei Zhong looked at the old man in front of him, who was Yan Wenbo, the steward of the Yan family who was in charge of leasing spiritual fields. As old spiritual farmers of the Yan family, the two have greeted each other for decades and are considered familiar with each other.
"It's just curing some old illnesses," and then looked at the young man beside him, "I wonder why you came here today?"
Yan Wenbo patted Yan Yuan on the shoulder, and the latter immediately bowed and clenched his fists: "Hello, Mr. Wei."
"This time, I want to take the younger generation Yan Yuan to become a disciple of you."
Wei Zhong shook his head: "Brother Yan, you know that I don't accept disciples."
Yan Wenbo was not surprised and said:
"Then don't need the title of master and disciple, how about teaching him the art. The boy is quite talented in the art of nurturing spirits, you just need to teach him the art of spiritual rain."
'Nurturing spirits? '
Wei Zhong had heard that people of this way were the upgraded version of spiritual farmers, responsible for the cultivation and care of spiritual medicines in the family.
I didn't expect that the young man in front of him had such a talent.
After a moment of hesitation, Wei Zhong agreed.
Yan Wenbo was the manager of the Yan family who was in charge of the leasing of spiritual fields, and he couldn't be offended easily.
Besides, he also paid ten spirit stones as a deposit, and if he taught well, there would be a balance. Why wouldn't Wei Zhong be happy to do this?
After a brief greeting, Yan Wenbo left, leaving Yan Yuan alone.
Wei Zhong took him into the fields, pointed at the spiritual field and began to cast spells and explain.
"The art of spiritual rain is to use rain to capture the spiritual energy floating in the air and drop it on the spiritual work. Therefore, gathering water vapor is one, and capturing spiritual energy is two..."
After the explanation, it was time to practice. Watching Yan Yuan rain down spiritual rain on his spiritual field, Wei Zhong was quite comfortable holding a cup of hot tea.
He could save spiritual power to practice more spells. While improving his cultivation, Wei Zhong did not give up his own advantages.
"No, you only paid attention to gathering the water vapor here, but forgot to capture the spiritual energy. Even if the spiritual energy here is exhausted, why is the spiritual rain technique limited to this place? Expanding the range of spiritual energy capture is..."
After some teaching, Yan Yuan's spiritual rain technique has already taken shape.
In this way, Yan Yuan spent three months practicing and teaching the technique. After completing his mission, he left, and Yan Wenbo paid the balance of ten spiritual stones.
"Thank you for your teachings these days."
Wei Zhong took the spirit stone: "Brother Yan, you are too polite."
Glancing at Wei Zhong's gray hair, Yan Wenbo said:
"Daoyou, do you know that my Yan family market will hold an auction soon? It is said that there will be longevity pills this time."
"Auction, longevity pills!"
Wei Zhong immediately understood and clenched his fist to thank him:
"Thank you, Brother Yan, for telling me the news in advance. I have to prepare well."
Wei Zhong participated in the Yan family auction many years ago, but because of his poor wealth, he failed to bid for good things. Now there is an auction again.
Wei Zhong is not interested in the longevity pill. With his wealth, it is still uncertain whether he can bid for one.
Even if he bids, he will probably lose everything. Moreover, with the ability to exchange life for downgrade, the longevity pill is insignificant to him.
Perhaps in Yan Wenbo's view, his life is coming to an end, and he is very eager for the longevity pill.
"Brother Wei, you don't have to be polite. With our friendship over the years, I just let out some rumors. But what Daoyou said is true, and we need to prepare well.
This auction is very large. Not only will my Yan family cultivators and surrounding casual cultivators participate, but also the two major families of Li and Chen have been invited."
"Oh?"
'The more people participate in the auction, the harder it will be to bid for the desired items. And this time there are people from other families participating. Will the Yan family auction good things that even the other two major families will be tempted? '
Wei Zhong did not ask further. Yan Wenbo had already done his best to notify him in advance. It would be impolite to ask too much.
After sending Yan Wenbo away, Wei Zhong looked at the beams and fell into deep thought.
It's rare for the Yan family to hold an auction, and he can't miss it.
I have to go out and exchange the items in my hand for some spirit stones.
I didn't dare to sell them in the Yan family market, worried that someone would see the clues. Wei Zhong decided to go to the casual cultivator market outside.
After packing up his things, Wei Zhong left the Yan family's sphere of influence.
In a flash, he was already a different look.
Disguise·Mastery (70%).
This technique is just a minor technique circulated in the martial arts world, and it cannot be regarded as a fairy technique, but Wei Zhong has practiced it to the level of mastery.
With the change of bones and the cover of his own spiritual power, ordinary Qi-refining cultivators cannot see his true appearance at all.
In this way, the casual cultivator Chu He returned to the martial arts world.
Facing the stream, it can be vaguely seen that he is a middle-aged man with a scar on his face, which looks a bit ferocious.
This is the secret identity of the predecessor Wei Zhong, who is at the eighth level of Qi Refining and is quite famous among casual cultivators.
Wei Zhong came to the gathering place of casual cultivators called Ruyue Market with ease.
This market is located in a blank area among the three major family forces and is jointly operated by three cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Ordinary people don’t know why this market, which has formed a large scale, has not been suppressed by the three major families, but instead the three major families have settled in their own shops.
Some casual cultivators speculated that the three casual cultivators have the background of the three major families and are the vests of the three major families.
Wei Zhong knew that this statement was completely absurd.
It was because Wei Zhong had dealt with the three cultivators and learned that they came from a sect thousands of miles away: Qingmu Sect.
Qingmu Sect was a large sect with Jindan cultivators, much stronger than the Yan family, which only had foundation-building cultivators.
It had existed in the local area for nearly a thousand years and was a leading force.
This was also one of the reasons why Wei Zhong came here to deal with the stolen goods.
He walked straight to the largest shop in the market, Zaling Pavilion.
As the name suggests, it is a shop that buys and sells various spiritual objects at this moment. It is powerful and does not ask where they come from.
Finding the shop owner, Wei Zhong handed over the storage bag.
The latter chuckled: "Brother Chu, you have met an ignorant guy again!"
Wei Zhong nodded. The strength of the casual cultivator Chu He was well-known in the Ruyue Market. His combat power was close to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and he even had a relationship with the three masters of the market.
Who dared to provoke him? Only the ignorant robbery cultivator.
After sipping the spiritual tea in the store for a while, the shopkeeper had already returned.
"The items in the two storage bags brought by Brother Chu are quite messy, so I counted them for a while longer."
Wei Zhong indicated that it was okay.
"All the items totaled 372 spiritual stones. I wonder if Brother Chu thinks it's appropriate?"
Wei Zhong nodded. The good things in the two storage bags had been put into his pockets. Only some miscellaneous items that were of little use to him were left, and the value was limited.
After putting away the spiritual stones, Wei Zhong was about to leave, and turned around and asked:
"I wonder how much your top-grade nourishing qi pills cost?"
"Two hundred spiritual stones for a bottle, a total of ten pills. If Brother Chu buys them, you can get a discount of one or two."
"Give me a bottle."
"One hundred and ninety spiritual stones."
"Brother Chu, take care!"
