Lu Sheng stood next to Chen Yuanji with a humble look.
The remaining disciples with spiritual root qualifications, those with low levels of the Three Spiritual Roots and those with pseudo-spiritual roots, stood there uneasily.
Then they were randomly selected by these foundation-building elders like goods.
Some elders even scolded other elders because they had fewer disciples than themselves.
It can be seen how unpopular disciples with such spiritual roots are. Lu Sheng sighed when he saw this scene. The world of immortality does not breed waste.
Moreover, when a disciple with such low qualifications is taken into their sect, he is not a serious disciple, he is just a registered disciple who does odd jobs and can be beaten and scolded at will without anyone saying anything.
After the names of the disciples were decided, the foundation-building monks did not hide anything from the Qi-training monks and started to discuss some things directly. He listened attentively.
They are all things on some islands, such as the formation of a certain sea monster invading the outer islands and the abnormal income and expenditure on which island.
About an hour later, everyone in the hall slowly disappeared.
In the huge Hanhai Hall, Chen Yuanji looked at Lu Sheng kindly.
"We are the master and apprentice here. Are you from Wei?"
Hearing this, Lu Sheng bent down slightly, cupped his hands and said:
"My disciple is from Yangcheng, Qingzhou, Wei State."
"Well, Qingzhou is a great place."
Nodding, Chen Yuanji's eyes flashed with nostalgia.
After thinking about it, Lu Sheng hesitated and asked:
"Is Master also from Wei?"
"Yes, I was brought here more than 120 years ago. I was a little older than you at that time, haha, so much has gone by in a flash."
"I haven't even returned to my hometown to see my parents. They have turned into putrid mud."
Hearing his lament, Lu Sheng remained silent.
Xu Shi saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy, so Chen Yuanji put away his sentimental emotions. He accepted this young man just because he wanted to cultivate a younger generation for his hometown.
He doesn't have much time left to live, so he doesn't expect to achieve a breakthrough. He just hopes to manage the sect well and live up to the instructions of the master.
If you take advantage of your free time to train this disciple well, it will soothe your heart.
Lu Sheng recalled quickly in his mind, and finally remembered the martial arts conference more than 120 years ago. At the conference, an innate grandmaster named Chen was found to have the qualifications to be a master of the three spiritual roots.
Grandmaster surnamed Chen was featured in a big book in the booklet, and there were a lot of beautiful words, such as sayings about immortals descending from heaven.
Putting away his complicated thoughts, Lu Sheng took a glance. Since this man could become a foundation-building monk, his qualifications were promising.
"Disciple, I heard them say that you have already practiced the exercises, is that true?"
Chen Yuanji asked in a serious tone.
"Master, I have practiced a technique called "Golden Jade Kung Fu", and now I have reached the third level of Qi training."
Lu Sheng said.
After listening to what his disciple said, his tone was slightly reproachful:
"Silly disciple, you are really reckless. Choosing a technique is an extremely important matter. It would be better for you to do such a career-ruining act just to be one step ahead."
A flash of understanding flashed across his eyes, and Lu Sheng thought back to the past. He was too eager for quick success and was dazzled by immortality.
Seeing Lu Sheng's self-reflective look, his voice gradually became gentle:
"You have this mentality of competing with others. You have done well, my disciple. What limits you is your experience and thoughts. Take your time."
"Master, I will tell you about the exercises. There are three types of exercises: the first type, the spiritual energy is restored quickly and the practice is slightly faster, but it will make the Dao Palace have a small capacity to absorb the spiritual energy. This is your kind."
"Second, the spiritual energy has high purity, slow recovery, small capacity but the fastest cultivation time. This kind of spirit is helpful for breaking through the realm, but it is not good at fighting."
"Third, the spiritual energy has high purity, fast recovery speed, and large capacity, but it is the slowest to practice and has many bottlenecks to break through."
Finally, Chen Yuanji added:
"The impact of the exercises on the Dao Palace is very important. Disciple, you must consider it carefully."
"I have these three metallic techniques here. You can think about it when you go back and come to the Chen family's main peak to find me."
After waiting patiently for Master to finish speaking, Lu Sheng raised his hands and said:
"Master, I choose the third option."
This choice was deliberate. In the short term, the first two might be good techniques, but he couldn't limit his vision to the realm of foundation building. He wanted to reach a higher realm!
Don’t you see, among those all-powerful monks with great supernatural powers, who are practicing this kind of technique?
His qualifications may be the best among hundreds of millions of mortals, but in this world of immortality, they can only be regarded as middle-aged talents.
If you don't choose a powerful technique, how can you compete with those geniuses who have magical bodies and high-quality spiritual roots?
Chen Yuanji was slightly stunned when he heard his disciple's choice. He vaguely saw himself when he was young, how arrogant he was.
But the reality is cruel. After all, he couldn't stand the snail's pace of cultivation, so he changed to the second method.
When thinking about the choice he made at that time, Chen Yuanji still feels that it was absolutely correct, otherwise how would he have broken through to the realm of foundation building.
"Okay, I promise you my master."
A smile appeared on Chen Yuanji's old face. He knew that words could not persuade a young man.
He raised his fingers together, golden light flashed, and a storage bag floated up, gently floating onto Lu Sheng's palm.
Lu Sheng saw this scene in his eyes. His master also majored in metal-based skills. The fate was really wonderful.
"There are some spiritual stones and the technique you want in here. I can't help you walk this rough road as a teacher."
"Remember to practice hard on weekdays, and if you need anything, you can use the communication jade talisman in the storage bag to contact me."
Chen Yuanji instructed with a smile.
Hearing this, Lu Sheng knelt down solemnly and kowtowed three times to the master.
"Go ahead."
Chen Yuanji stroked his pale beard and smiled.
Watching his disciple's figure gradually disappear, he sighed.
…
Quiet room.
Lu Sheng excitedly placed the two storage bags on the ground. The one he opened first was the one given to him by Xue Ling.
There was a letter and fifty spiritual stones inside. There were a lot of words written on the letter, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Out of sight and out of mind, he burned the letter and his eyes fell firmly on the small pile of dark blue spiritual stones.
As soon as the core disciples enter, they will be rewarded with a hundred spiritual stones and a first-level low-grade magic weapon. Xue Ling gave him half of the spiritual stones.
Rubbing his hands, Lu Sheng felt excited. With these spiritual stones, he could quickly improve his cultivation.
Putting these spirit stones into his storage bag, he opened another storage bag.
A few rays of light flickered, and suspended in the air were a mediocre old book, a piece of white jade, a hundred low-grade spiritual stones, and a yellow porcelain bottle.
Lu Sheng took the booklet in his hand and it said "Nine Transformations of Gold Forging".
When he opened it, the contents inside made him emotionally unstable.
This technique actually requires people to practice it again nine times! ! !
Not only are there more and more difficult bottlenecks to break through than others, but one must also practice to the thirteenth level of Qi training.
The key is that after cultivating to the thirteenth level of Qi training, the spiritual energy in the Tao Palace will naturally and irreversibly dissipate, and the level will instantly drop to the first level of Qi training.
The cycle starts again and again, and it takes nine times of rebuilding before you can take the Foundation Establishment Pill to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm.
The advantage is that it can increase the capacity of one's Dao Palace, and the stored spiritual energy is far better than that of the same level. Moreover, after nine turns, taking a Foundation Establishment Pill has a 90% chance of breakthrough.
Ninety percent hope!
If he practices the "Golden Jade Skill", there is only a 30% chance of swallowing the Foundation Building Pill.
So he must practice this technique!
Among the foundation-building elders, there are only four or five qualifications for those with three spiritual roots and those with two spiritual roots. Most of them have the qualifications for those with two spiritual roots and one or two possessing Dharma bodies.
It is enough to see the difficulty of breaking through to the realm of foundation building.
The book says that those with poor qualifications should not practice, and those with good qualifications should not practice. Take the best of the two.
Because this technique relies on the process of breaking through bottlenecks to expand the capacity of the Tao Palace.
That’s why I said this.
Those with poor qualifications will be trapped in the bottleneck for the rest of their lives. Those with good qualifications will have extremely fragile bottlenecks. Even if they complete the nine-turn process, they will not gain much.
God has set up bottlenecks for those with poor qualifications, but if the shackles are removed, they will get the benefits they deserve.
There is another sentence marked at the end of the book: If you don’t have patience, perseverance, and resources, don’t practice.
Then he doesn’t exactly meet the requirements for practicing the exercises!
