In the dining hall at night, the brother and sister, who were very happy because they were not scolded, sat in the side room and told Li Miaoxin what happened this afternoon, including their encounter with Tang Xin, the monkey with four hands, the huge rabbit, and the vertical rabbit. Interesting things like a hippopotamus on the middle finger, a dog with three heads, and penguins.
Li Miaoxin just listened gently and occasionally responded with a sentence or two.
"I will have to settle accounts with those penguins sooner or later." Lin Xiaolu yelled and said, "Senior sister, how far should I practice in the future to defeat those penguins."
Li Miaoxin thought for a moment and then smiled and said: "Senior Emperor Penguin is a spiritual beast in the foundation-building stage, so Xiaolu, if you want to defeat senior Emperor Penguin, you must at least reach the foundation-building level."
"Is it difficult to become a foundation builder?" Lin Xiaolu asked curiously.
Li Miaoxin nodded bitterly: "It must be difficult. For example, senior sister, I started practicing when I was ten years old. I am already sixteen years old this year. I have been practicing for six years and I am only at the third level of Qi Condensation."
Lin Xiaolu didn't understand what he heard. He didn't understand the difference between Qi Condensation and Foundation Building.
And he didn't understand, and Xiao Yu'er certainly didn't understand either. At just five years old, she was sitting at the table and just picking rice into her little mouth.
Seeing that Lin Xiaolu didn't understand, Li Miaoxin smiled and explained to him: "There are realms to practice a path. At the beginning, it is from the first to the tenth level of the Qi Condensation Stage.
After that, if you break through the tenth level of Qi Condensation and build the foundation, it will be the foundation building stage. For example, the senior Emperor Penguin you met is in the foundation building stage, and that senior sister Tang Xin is also in the foundation building stage, including those of our Star Reaching lineage who are still in retreat. Senior brother, it is also the foundation building period. "
Li Miaoxin said: "In Emei, the chief disciple of each lineage is a strong man in the foundation-building stage, and is also the mainstay of the entire Emei."
Lin Xiaolu was surprised after hearing this. He didn't expect Emperor Penguin and Rakshasa Hag to be so powerful. He thought they were similar to his senior sister.
"Then what's on top of Senior Sister's foundation?" Lin Xiaolu asked.
"Beyond the foundation building is the core formation stage. For example, our master is in the core formation stage, including the elders of other branches. Among them, our master is the strongest among the nine elders." Li Miaoxin said proudly.
"Oh~" Lin Xiaolu nodded with sudden realization. After the girl's patient explanation, he had a general idea of practice.
Li Miaoxin continued to smile and said: "If it is above the formation of pills, it is Yuanying. In the entire Emei, only our leader has stepped into this realm. However, the strength of this realm and the magical powers are not clear to senior sister. , After all, senior sister, I have been a disciple of Emei for seven years, but I have never seen the master take action."
"Are there other realms above Nascent Soul?" Lin Xiaolu asked curiously.
"Of course there are." Li Miaoxin nodded and replied: "But senior sister is not sure what the names of those realms are. I only heard Master mention it once. Master said that the ancestors of our Emei, that is, he and The master in charge left Emei and went to the land of China to find opportunities just to enter the realm above the Nascent Soul."
Lin Xiaolu was confused when he heard this, feeling like he had opened the door to a new world.
From the first to the tenth level of Qi Condensation, then to the foundation building, pill formation, Nascent Soul, and realms above Nascent Soul, he did not expect that there are so many realms in cultivation.
In fact, Lin Xiaolu still yearns for cultivating immortals. Within two days of entering Emei, he has already experienced many magical abilities. For example, his master Li Mingru and his brother and sister turned into white rainbows and flew to Emei.
Another example is the old man Yang in the Literacy Hall who raises his hand to heal other people's injuries, or the Rakshasa hag transforming into butterflies between her fingers to make her sister smile.
These mysterious and mysterious abilities made him feel very yearned for. Just imagine how it would feel if he became so awesome in the future, flying in the sky and on the earth, calling the wind and rain, and being omnipotent.
By then, not to mention eating candied haws without paying for it, I would probably be able to become the emperor of any small country in the world without any problem!
"Senior sister, teach me how to practice!" The boy said eagerly and excitedly: "I also want to become as powerful as them. I can fly, heal people's injuries, and turn into a butterfly."
Li Miaoxin couldn't help but smile when she heard the words, and joked: "There's no rush, junior brother, you should study hard to read in the literacy hall. Only when you can read can you understand the talismans of the Dharma and learn all kinds of mysteries.
When you have some basic knowledge of literacy, Mr. Yang will teach you to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and start the most basic practice, thereby testing your cultivation talent. "
"Talent?" Lin Xiaolu asked in confusion: "What is talent?"
"Talent is the sensitivity to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and whether one has a special spiritual body."
Li Miaoxin explained with a smile: "Junior brothers and sisters, don't worry, Emei is very strict in recruiting inner disciples, and those who are not extremely talented will never be recruited directly.
And you are the disciples that Master only recruited after twenty years. You must be geniuses. I have absolute confidence in you, Senior Sister. "
"Yeah." Lin Xiaolu nodded after hearing this. He also felt that he and his sister must be powerful, so he responded to Li Miaoxin's words very shamelessly.
"Senior sister, if you don't have talent, you won't be able to practice." Xiao Yu'er, who was eating at the side, suddenly asked vaguely.
"Yes." Li Miaoxin nodded and explained with a smile: "Actually, most mortals are unable to practice, because most people are insensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They cannot store the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for their own use, let alone perform various functions. The mysterious method.”
"Aren't mortals very pitiful?" Lin Xiaolu asked: "Mortals have no spiritual power and cannot practice. If they meet some bad practitioners, wouldn't they be bullied?"
"That's true." Li Miaoxin looked at the two brothers and sisters and patiently explained to them: "Monks pursue immortality and can live for thousands of years, while mortals' lives are only a few decades, as if they are fleeting and fleeting. Therefore, in front of the monks , they are often like ants, unable to protect themselves. Even some imperial armies in the mortal world are vulnerable when facing powerful monks.
However, almost no cultivation sect would massacre mortals, not even demonic monks. "
"Why?" Lin Xiaolu was curious: "Is it because they are too strong and are too lazy to deal with mortals?"
"Of course not." Li Miaoxin said with a smile: "The reasons are very complicated, there are two main points."
She raised her pretty fingers and explained to the two children:
"First point, although mortals have no spiritual power and cannot cultivate immortality, they can provide wishes to the immortal cultivation sects in the area to obtain blessings. For example, around our Emei border, there are several countries that are attached to us.
Their people usually believe in and worship us Emei monks, and they even call us Emei Immortals. The belief and worship of mortals will produce a kind of wish power, which is also a kind of aura of heaven and earth. They can subtly help us practice, but we need to protect them so that the weather is smooth and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. "
After speaking, Li Miaoxin raised a second finger:
"The second point is that if you massacre mortals, it will cause the backlash of heaven. Not only will there be evil fate, but it will also easily produce inner demons in your future practice. You must know that once the inner demons possess them, it can take as little as a thousand years of Taoism to be lost. , if it gets worse, it will turn into ashes and turn into a handful of loess.
So because of the existence of the power of wishes and evil spirits, almost no monks on the land of China would massacre living beings, do you understand? "
Lin Xiaolu had a runny nose and nodded dully.
