Ning Shaoyang was very unsure: "Senior Brother Yan, is my cultivation speed considered fast?"

"Of course it's fast. Anyway, it's faster than me. It can be compared with the first-class disciples." Yan Liang said.

Ning Shaoyang couldn't believe it and asked: "Senior Brother Yan, how long did it take you to enter the middle stage of Qi training?"

"After entering the realm of Qi training, it took about one year and three months." Yan Liang recalled.

"Really?" Ning Shaoyang was very doubtful.

"Of course it's true," Yan Liang said, "What's the point of lying to you?"

Ning Shaoyang saw that his face didn't look like he was lying, and his mood suddenly became much more cheerful.

For now, Yan Liang is his role model.

If his cultivation speed can be faster than this example, then he will be more relieved and more confident.

Then he asked: "So, Senior Brother Yan, how long did it take you to go from the middle stage of Qi training to the late stage of Qi training?"

"About three or four years," Yan Liang recalled.

Three or four years later, Ning Shaoyang breathed a sigh of relief again.

This time was not as long as he expected, which was still acceptable.

It would be a bit sad if it takes more than ten years to reach the advanced stage of Qi training.

Then he continued to ask: "Senior brother, how long did it take you from the late stage of Qi training to the Great Perfection of Qi training?"

"This time is relatively short, after all, it is just to fill up the mana," Yan Liang said, "It is probably more than a year, but the time from Qi Practice Dzogchen to the Foundation Establishment Realm is relatively long, it took about seven or eight years.

Years ago, it was by chance that I was lucky enough to enter that realm."

Ning Shaoyang couldn't help but frown.

His cultivation qualifications are not even qualified to enter the Taihao Sect, but Yan Liang is a disciple of the Taihao Sect, which proves that his qualifications are far inferior to Yan Liang.

It would take more than ten years for Yan Liang to enter the realm of foundation building. His qualifications were so different, so it would take even more time.

Yan Liang saw him frowning and couldn't help but smile: "What do you have to worry about? I was in the outer sect at that time and had no resources. My spiritual energy was far inferior to that here, even one-tenth of what is here.

Neither, and there is no master to guide you, so it takes so long to enter the foundation-building realm. Your environment is much better than mine, and you have a master as good as Miss Mingzhu to guide you, so what do you need to worry about?"

Ning Shaoyang thought to himself: "In addition to disdain for me, my master has nothing to teach me."

But it’s hard to say these words.

In addition, the concentration of spiritual energy here is indeed higher than other places.

He didn't know what the outer gate looked like, at least the aura at the bottom of the mountain wasn't as rich as the aura he had at the top of the mountain.

Even places like Jinxia Peak and Cyanwood Peak cannot compare to the richness of spiritual energy here.

Of course, the thickness of spiritual energy also has a relatively large impact on cultivation. Although the impact is not significant when the cultivation level is relatively low, the impact will be deeper as you go later.

In the beginning, you can only capture a trace of spiritual energy for cultivation at a time. No matter how thin the spiritual energy is, you can practice as long as you have it.

But later on, as the speed of mana cultivation became faster and faster, the requirements for spiritual energy became higher and higher.

Now that he has reached the middle stage of Qi training, he can already realize this.

Yan Liang's words still made him feel better.

When going to the Treasure Hall, Yan Liang asked him curiously: "Junior Brother Ning, besides practicing magic power every day, what else are you learning now? Are you learning the art of sword control, learning to make talismans or refining weapons? Or?

Refining elixirs?"

Ning Shaoyang shook his head: "I just practice magic, I haven't learned anything else."

"No wonder you can enter the middle stage of Qi training so quickly."

Yan Liang suddenly realized it and asked again:

"Then what are you going to learn next?"

Ning Shaoyang shook his head again: "Learn nothing and continue to practice magic."

Yan Liang was stunned: "Why don't you learn?"

"My master said that before I enter the realm of foundation building, I don't want me to learn those things to waste time."

After saying this, Ning Shaoyang asked Yan Liang again: "Senior Brother Yan, do you think what my master said makes sense?"

Yan Liang was stunned for a moment and said: "It makes sense, of course it makes sense, it makes very sense."

Then he smiled bitterly and said: "I am still ignorant and treat you as an ordinary outer disciple, so I think it is strange that you don't learn those things. In fact, with your conditions, there is no need to learn those things before the foundation building realm.

, it is indeed wasting time.”

Ning Shaoyang felt very strange: "Brother, why do you say that? Should outer disciples learn those things, and inner disciples like me don't need to learn them?"

"You have to know one thing. If you are in the middle of your Qi training, it will take at least half a year to learn a technique. No matter which technique it is, it will take at least half a year. The more difficult ones may even take several years to master, and the power is also very high.

It’s very limited. But when you reach the foundation-building realm, and you learn that technique again, the power will be many times stronger, but it only takes a few days to learn. So do you think it’s more cost-effective to wait until you’re at the foundation-building realm to learn it?

Woolen cloth?"

Yan Liang asked.

Ning Shaoyang nodded and said: "If this is really the case, then it must be more economical to learn it after reaching the foundation-building realm. It can save a lot of time."

But he also expressed doubts: "Isn't this true for outer disciples? Why do outer disciples have to learn those things?"

Yan Liang sighed and said with a wry smile: "Junior brother Ning, you have never been to the outer sect, so you don't know what the outer sect is like. The outer sect disciples are not real Taihao sect disciples. They are in the outer sect, except for

Apart from the thin spiritual energy, there are no other resources. If you want to obtain cultivation resources, such as the Yishen Pills you often buy, you need to pay for them yourself."

"Can't the sect give out spiritual stones?" Ning Shaoyang asked.

"No, there is not even a single spirit stone. If you want a spirit stone, you need to earn it yourself." Yan Liang said, "And if you want to earn a spirit stone, you need to learn those things. Just like the magic talisman you use.

Low-level talismans are made by outer disciples."

Ning Shaoyang nodded to express his understanding.

Yan Liang added: "In order to obtain training resources faster, some disciples will choose to practice martial arts and leave the sect to hunt wild beasts and sell them for money. That is even more of a waste of time - not to mention the realm of foundation building, even if they have reached the level of Qi training

In Dzogchen, the martial arts practiced will be of no use. However, in order to obtain more cultivation resources, one must waste time and see where it is wasted."

Ning Shaoyang finally understood why his qualifications were worse than Yan Liang's, and his time to enter the middle stage of Qi training was shorter.
