Chapter 18 The Sorrows of Low-level Outer Sect Disciples
As a minor who was raising his parents not long ago, Zhang Ning had no awareness of taking on family responsibilities at all, so he faced a choice: should he change to a job with a high income or throw away Mickey?
Zhang Ning was a little hesitant. If Mickey could get home by himself like some pets, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
Then I can only change jobs... But this place is not like my own world, and it will definitely be difficult to switch to other departments of the Qingxu Sect...
So he asked Master Wu respectfully: "Master Wu, I am already very skilled in refining ore. Can I start refining weapons?"
Master Wu said with a kind smile: "It's not impossible, but... the disciples of the Weapon Refining Hall can only learn to refine the flying swords at the third level of Qi refining. After all, this requires more precise spiritual control and thought coordination... You must know that you cannot be eager to achieve success in your cultivation. If you want to return the crystals of the Xienuan Sect as soon as possible, I think with your ability, you can completely refine some ores. Many disciples of the Weapon Refining Hall refine them in the Earth Vein, and they will be in seclusion for a month..."
Zhang Ning knew in his heart that he no longer mentioned learning to refine weapons. After receiving the task of that month, he ignored Master Wu's explicit suggestion and did not receive another piece of ore, and went back to his bamboo house directly.
If he still can't see that Master Wu is not a good bird, he would be too naive.
First, let someone owe a large number of crystals to the sect. The disciples who are not aware of this may be grateful. Once they reach the necessary cultivation level, they will start to exploit them desperately on the grounds of paying off their debts.
After the obvious routine reached the second level of Qi Refining, Master Wu took all the cultivation time of the outer disciples of the weapon refining hall, except for the monthly tasks and additional tasks to repay crystal stones. The more work is of extremely low value and is only enough to maintain the basic needs of fasting pills.
The entire Qi refining period requires taking fasting pills, and only after building the foundation can one be a true practitioner.
The same is true in other places in the outer sect, so before him, no outer sect disciples went to the library because there was no crystal! There was no time!
This also explains why after he went to the library and exposed his cultivation level of Qi Refining, Director Wu came to summon him to assign tasks to him the next day. Because he ran out to show off his authority to challenge the external management, the cheap labor has now been cultivated and mature. If he doesn't hurry up, do he have to keep it for the New Year?
Zhang Ning was angry and was so excited that the passionate boy who was in the second stage of youth could not bear this!
So the question is, how should he take revenge?
...
In terms of cultivation, Zhang Ning is still very tender, but in terms of his wrist... he is even more tender!
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Ning calmed down silently.
Zhang Ning, who is familiar with the literature on cultivation, knows that there is nothing strange about this kind of thing in the world where the strong are respected. Is he the only one who knows the truth? Obviously not. He Lei said last time he met: Outer disciples are just chores.
Zhang Ning threw the mission ore in the corner of the house, poured all the fasting pills into Mickey's mansion, closed the doors and windows, sat on the bamboo bed and started practicing.
He has been refining ore during the day and only practiced at night. It has only been two months like this. It is really unreasonable to think about it! You know that the male monk is likely to hide near Qingyun Mountain and wait for an opportunity to capture him! Why did he live so comfortably and forget the threat? Forgot the goal of returning to his own world?
Did he numb his heart by numbing ore step by step and practicing slowly every day?
Fortunately, it’s not too late to wake up!
Master Wu wanted to take up his evening practice time. This proposal woke Zhang Ning up. If you don’t want to be bullied, you will reach the height that he dare not bully you!
Zhang Ning calmed down and began to absorb spiritual energy and run Zhoutian. Because Zhang Ning brought an accelerator, he rarely took the initiative to absorb spiritual energy before. This time he had to take the mental state of sprinting before the exam to practice!
Under his mind, the surrounding spiritual energy began to slowly rotate and pour into his body.
………
...
A few days later, when he finishes his efforts, he will be perfected in the second level.
Zhang Ning felt that his spiritual energy was running smoothly, so he began to try to expand his meridians according to the method described in the jade slip... But the circulating spiritual energy in his body was not solid and could not bear the force, and it felt as difficult as trying to write words with a wisp of green smoke.
According to the records of the Jade Slip on the Practice, this is the bottleneck that reaches the second level, and it is necessary to use the Huolou Shengmai San to make a breakthrough.
Zhang Ning went to find Master Wu, and wanted to get a bottle of Huolou Shengmai San for credit.
As expected, although Master Wu lamented that he was practicing fast, he still advised him to stabilize his state and not to rush to achieve success. Moreover, his attitude was very clear. The credit limit for the outer disciples was 2,000 crystals, and the credit limit required for the Huolou Shengmai San. Given that Zhang Ning had previously owed 1,610 crystals in the sect, Huolou Shengmai San could not be owed to him. Then he continued to encourage Zhang Ning to extract the ore, and after paying off the debts of the sect, he would then owed the crystals in the credit limit to receive Huolou Shengmai San.
Zhang Ning said goodbye with a strong face, and fell into deep thought after returning to the bamboo house.
His goal is to understand the abnormalities in this world, carefully investigate, uncover the secrets, and return to his own world. This requires information. Leaving Qingyun Mountain may be dangerous, so the current source of information can only be the sect library, and the library needs to pay for crystals to borrow the bookstore. His method is to learn to refine weapons to earn more crystals. Refining weapons requires cultivation to reach the third level of Qi refining. He is now in the second level of Qi refining, and he is in a bottleneck stage. He cannot make progress without elixirs. Pills require crystals.
After going around and back to the crystal, how can I break the deadlock?
Borrow? He had never communicated with anyone else in the weapon refining hall, so how could he speak? Liu Li followed Master Wu's advice at first sight, so he didn't have to think about it.
Zhang Ning returned to the bamboo house and took out the remaining half bottle of body quenching pills. I wonder if half bottle can be replaced with crystal stones. However, even if it can be replaced, it will be a drop in the bucket!
At this moment, Mickey ran over and stared at Zhang Ning with a flattering look on his face.
Zhang Ning looked at the doll house and said that he had finished eating the fasting elixir. This guy's appetite has increased! Even if he accepts his fate, he will definitely not be able to support it after going into seclusion in the refining ore!
Zhang Ning tried to feed the body tempering pills to Mickey again, but he didn't even look at him! He still stared at Zhang Ning and chirped.
Zhang Ning smiled bitterly in his heart. He gently pinched Mickey, placed it on the grass outside the house, and whispered: "Your mother is calling you to go home for dinner, go quickly... I can't afford to support you."
Mickey's eyes rolled, and she screamed twice, then she hurried into the grass and ran away.
Zhang Ning sighed as Mickey disappeared, and turned back to the room.
Chapter completed!
